Crude Oil Burner,

Mr.. M. L. Readhimer has on demon.
stration at Attorney Leo st. Cyr's
office a recent patent in the way of a
crude Oil burner. The burner is
known as the Little Carter Crude Oil
Burner and uses plain crude oil. It is
attached to any ordinary stove and
consists Of a burner that fits down in
one of the eye holes of the stove, the
oil burner being placed in the stove
frebox. The oil is carried to the
burner from a tank by means of a
pipe. The burner is very simple in
construction and gives any heat de-
sired. No trouble to light it, and It
is very economical, as it requires but
little oil. Mr.. Readhimer will be here
for about ten days and invites the
ladies' to come and see the burner
work.

Ordinarily the producing manager
pays but little heed to such scenic
accessories as tapestries, rugs and
hangings, so long as a fairly ade-
quate or artistic effect is accomplished
by their use in Interior ''settings".
One great exception, however, is Earl
Burgess, whose beautiful production
of 1.-THE World And a Woman
a powerful play of contemporary life
by Joseph Byron Totten, will be
presented at The jefferson Theatre
Saturday, October 16. In equipping
this drama, which is fairly startling
America, Mr.. Burgess general mas
ter of properties suggested certain
cheap materials for a drawing room
scene, which he thought would be
Just as effective as the rarest of hang
ings and floor coverings, but Mr..
Burgess emphaticailly declined ''to
cheat as he called it, therefore. all
the tapestries, etc, used in 1.-THE
World And a Woman are of the
finest quality and represent an ex-
penditure equal to a small fortune.

ney John L. Kennedy against the City
OF Lafayette. MI. Kennedy was city
attorney under the previous Council
and is suing for $3.50 as attorneys fees
in six suits in the district court and
four in the justice court for the city,
claiming that the 5000 salary given
him was for services in an advisory
character and that bringing suits was
not included. The city is being repre-
scented by City Attorney Jerome Mou-
ton, who claims for the city that under
the resolution appointing Mr.. Kennedy
city attorney, which simply elects him
as city attorney at a salary of 5000,
his duties as city attorney included the
bringing Of suits, and he was not en-
titled to extra compensation. The
case was argued by counsel and taken
under advisement by Judge Campbell.
