SULPHUR FROM VOLCANO
HELD TO BE "REFINED'
Customs Men and Importers
Clash Over Question

Whether sulphur coming pure from
volcano in the province of Bungo,
Japan, is to be admitted to the United
States as crude sulphur and free from
duty was the question before General
Appraiser of Customs Marion de Vries
yesterday at the special hearing in the
custom house. There is a duty of IS
ton on refined sulphur. while the
crude article is allowed entry free.
1t is the contention of Custom APP
praiser John Mattos Jr. that the prod
uce is subject to duty, although not
refined by artificial process as it comes
from the crater of the volcano purer
than the refined article. 1t is held by
the importers. H. NJ. Newhall & Co..
represented by Custom Attorney Joseph
L. Bley that the sulphur has never
been refined and should be allowed free
entry. There were several experts
called, including DIR. John H. Dawson,
chemist for the government, and Judge
Sidney Williams, geologist, who is now
experimenting large sulphur mines at
Cuprite, New.
Both Doctor Dawson and Judge Will
liams. the latter having visited and
studied the sulphur producing volcano
of Japan. were of the opinion that the
product should be classed as refined,
it being purer than the sulphur that
is sublimated from retorts. The sui
phur in question was found to be 99.9S
per cent pure.

must be her brother. To confirm this
she called out, Who's there?" The
answer was a wild scamper down the
steps and crash at the bottom of the
hall Paralyzed by fear she saw two
strange young men dash out of the
room. 1t was not until she was sure
that they were gone that she raised
her voice for aid.
The burglars were ransacking bureau
drawers when disturbed and broke a
piece of bronze statuary in their flight.

The Sewing Room

If one has the time it is always
more desirable to make petticoats at
home than to buy them ready made.
A better quality of material may be
had at less cost, and they can be more
neatly finished
If one is to appear to the best ad-
vantage in the stylish gowns it is alb
solutely necessary to have the under
skirts fit perfectly without the slight
est sign of a bulge over the hips. To
accomplish this 1T is essential to pro-
cure an up to date pattern and not at
tempt to remodel one already on hand,
for the cores are arranged quite diff
ferently from those of the skirts for
merly worn, and unless one under
stands where to make the changes the
petticoat will be spoiled.
After cutting the skirt, before the
pattern is removed, see that all notches
are accurately marked, for these great
ly assist one in putting the cores to-
gether. The seams should be made in
the regulation way and the rough
edges overcast by hand. A narrow
facing of the material. cut on the bias,
will make the best finish for the waist
1t is stitched by means OF a narrow
seam to the top edge Of the skirt. and
then turned down on the wrong side
and stitched fiat.
For tub skirts long cloth in good
quality will wear well. Being a soft
weave 1t is easy to launder and takes
the starch nicely. Flouncings of Ham
burg embroidery wear much better
than lace and are no more expensive.
Where they join the skirt either a
strip of insertion that matches the
design in the ruffie or bias band of
the material can be used as a finish.
