LARGE DEMAND FOR vANADlUM
Metal a Curiosity Ten Years Ago Now
Used by the Ton.

A few years ago the rare metal va
nahum was scarcely mentioned out
side of classes in chemistry; now its
uses are so various that metallurgiots
have spent much time in devisins bet
ter and cheaper wass of extracting 1t
from it's ores
Probably its most important use is
as a component of steel, to which 1t
imparts wonderful resistance. Va
nadurn steel appears to owe its quail
tiles partly to the TACT that vanadium
relieves the steel n its oxygen and
nitrogen, which weakens it.
Besides this use, yanadium is used
10 prepare indelible inks, in combina-
ton with tannin and alkalies; for the
oxidation of aniline in making aniline
black; to make sulphuric acid by the
oxidation of sulphurous acid and in the
manufacture of various metallic pig
ments.
1t also serves as a cOloring agent for
ceramics and glassware, is compon-
ent of a newly discovered developer
used in photography and has been EN-
ployed in medicine for the treatmeD
of tuberculosis.
Between so and rs tons yearly are
now used, and it is worth about 81 a

In our neighborhood, One Hundred

nue., an Italian ice and coal peddler
lost an aged horse, whose constant
companion and playmate was a small
mongrel bulldog. A few hours after
the horse died we noticed that the dog
began to look dopey. He Just mOped
around, apparently having lost in
terest in life We saw him go to the
old horse, stretch his body across the
lattcr's neck and die there. The nu-
merous drivers who cOngregate around
:his point, all rough, but good natwed
fellows, noticed the positions of the
two dead animals, and many a head
was suddenly turned the other way.
There We're peculiar fits of coughing
and some of the boys were rubbing
their cheeks with The backs of their
hands in lieu Of handkerchiefs. Some
cursed at their teams and disappeared
as quickly as possible. ! honestly be-

ology.
In explaining why he made such an
assertion, Dr Weatherly entered into
the definition of the word crime.
1T is regarded as the greatest crime
now" said DIR. Weatherly, to rebel
against ones country. This is just
what all the colonists did in the revo-
miionary war They were all erin
mails in the strict sense of the word,
and George Washington, being the
leader Of all, was, therefore, the great
est of the criminals. Crime Is defined
only by the will of society and a thing
is crime IL forbidden by law no mat
ter what the nature of II may be.
Every creator of new things and new
ideas is a criminal because he breaks
away from the set law. Washington
was a criminal while rebelling against
the king. but after his cause was won
changes were made, new laws framed,
and instead of going down in history
as a criminal, Washington stands as
our greatest patriot Crime is an anti
social fact and changes in social Ideas
necessitate changes in laws"

One Of the chief problems of the

whether based upon race or voluntary

that OF accepting the natural tenden'

The true and therefore the permanent

HIGHEST BRIDGE m WORLD.
Contract Awarded for Structure {
Span Snake River Canyon.

Salt Lake City, Utah The highest
bridge in the world is soon to be built
across the Snake River canyon, 500
feet west of Shoshone Falls, at one OF
the most picturesque spots in the
west The span of the bridge will be
1,140 feet from cliff to cliff. and the
roadbed will be $50 feet above the
water From the bridge one will be
able to look down at the falls. which
rank among the greatest natural won
ders in the Pacific northwest. The
work has been placed in the hands of
the American Bridge Company. The
next highest bridge is on the Cape to
Cairo railroad in Rhodesia, Africa, on
the zambesi river, just below Victoria
falls, at height of 400 feet. The
span, however IL only $50 feet. The
Brooklyn bridge, while having a longer
span, is only $40 feet above the water.
The old suspension bridge at Niagara
was S21 feet and about $50 above the
water.
The bridge across the Snake river
at Shoshone falls is made necessary
by the development of irrigation both
north and south of the river. The
large communities which have settled
ON the hitherto desert lands have
reached a stage In their development
where they require better communica,
ton. and the bridge will be built at an
early date, The electric railroad sys.
TEN on both sides OF the river will
thus be connected. using the bridge
for electric trains.
