Coal Strikes and Fuel Famines
No Longer Brighten.

Readers of this paper are beginning to
see that the Original Coles Hot Blast
Heater, sold in this town only by us, is
the ideal stove under all conditions. 1t
burns soft coal, hard coal, Ignite, wood,
cobs or any other fuel without any
change of parts. 1t burns any fuel you
can get This is possible because the
stove is air tight, giving a perfect con-
troll of the draft due to many patented
features not found on any other heater
The Cole Manufacturing Co. of Chi
cago is selling $4,000 of these stoves a
season, and no wonder. This stove will
hold fire from Saturday night until Mon
day morning with soft coal, hard coal or
ignite which makes an even temperature
| all the time so that the house is not first
heated and then chilled, a certain cause
of colds and most of the sickness that
comes in the winter, and by keeping
fire over night it does away with kind
ling and rebuilding of fires each morning,
as is the case with other stoves.
The smoke proof feed door, which is
at the top of the stove, is delight to
the woman who has always been an
noyed by the smoke and gas and dirt
from ordinary soft coal heaters. Who
curtain washing and carpet sweeping
done away with by use of Coles Hot
Blast Stove?
But this heating wonder touches the
pocket book because it is guaranteed to
cut the fuel bill third over any lower
draft stove of the same size People
who have been paying from $4,000 to
$4,000 winter for their coal will really
+,,d %1,o+ Il - III
fuel bill in two. While the makers only
guarantee saving Of a third, in fuel,
it is fact that when the stove is oper-
ated with care and according to direc-
tons 1t will reduce the fuel expense one
half. Any number of cases are reported
every season where the stove has saved
its cost in fuel in one single season.
This is because the hot blast draft burns
the gas from the soft coal, which is half
OF the heating value. In ordinary stoves
the fire burns from the bottom, the gas
arises and goes right on UP the Chin
ney. With Coles Hot Blast the draft
is fed to the fire from the top which
burns the gas as it arises and uses it
instead of allowing it to pass up the
chimney. This would not be possible
were it not for the form of draft and
the air tight construction which holds
back the gas and gives perfect control
to the draft.
We have received a letter from the
President of the Cole Manufacturing
Co., authorizing us to sell the stove on
the most remarkable guarantee ever
made, and every reader of this paper
will do well to see us before finally de-
Gliding on heater this season.

FLIGHT
 OF NEW AER0PLAAE
SOME DEFECTS WERE DlscoV-
 BRED.
Three Attempts Crowned With Indif-
 ferent Success.

Washington. June 29.-orville Wright made a flight in the Wrights' new aeroplane at Fort Myer late to- day Just after starting the machine swooped and barely touched the ground, without damage.
 Shortly after 5 o'clock. everything having been made ready. Wilbur Wright and Taylor started the engine. OrviIle took the operators seat, and released the weight that gives momen- tum to the aeroplane- The machine rose but a few feet as it left the rail. The tip of the right wing struck the earth. The machine was swung con1- pletely around so that it faced the starting apparatus and Orville stopped the machine. After the damage had been repaired the machine was return ed to the starting rail for another trial.
 At 6:1O pm the first mishap was repeated with the exception that this time the left wing scraped the ground. The wing showed remarkable strength and was not broken on either occasion. The machine again returned for a third trial and the crowd, seeing that Orville was determined to make a flight, cheered mstilv.
 The third attempt was even less suc- cessful, the machine refusing to rise at all At 7:45 pm. the final trial was made and the machine rose 15 to 20 feet Shortly after it ascended from the ground it showed signs of losing headway. but Orville kept on around the field, remaining in the air about 50 seconds and landing almost i'm mediately in front of the starting track.
 Tomorrow the Wrights win remedy the defects encountered today and if good weather coalitions obtain. will make one or more preliminary trials.

PROTESTS AGAINST CORPORA
 TON TAX.

Washington, D. C., June 29.-A flood of telegrams, nearly equalling that which swamped the wires during the anti-railroad pass fight, is pouring in upon senators in opposition to the cor poration tax bill. Most of the tele- grams come from persons interested in building and loan associations, but practically every character of corpora ton is represented. Most of the sena- tors received from twelve to fifty tele- grams today and some at least 100.
 Unless there is a change of senti- ment throughout the country, it would not surprise many members of con- gress if the corporation tax should be abandoned in conference and the in heritance tax. which was adopted by the house, restored to the tariff bill.

BLOOD HOUNDS PURSUE TWO ESCAPING BANDITS SUSPECTED OF RoBBlNG CANA
 DIAN PACIFIC. In a Fight One of Them and an Officer
 Were Killed.

Kamloops, B. C., June 29.-Although closely pursued by a posse aided by bloodhounds, the two companions of the bandid who was killed last night in a duel with Ike. Decker. the special policeman who also met his death, are still at large. The pursuers are confi dent that they have the men cornered, having traced them to tn entrance of an old mining tunnel. Guards have been placed at the mouth of the tunnel and if the men attempt to escape a battle will result. The police are now firmly convinced that the men are members of the gang that held up the Canadian Pacific express last week.
 It is believed that the men intended to make second attempt last night, as quantity of dynamite was found in the boat which they had abandoned when the fight with Decker occurred.
 The men are believed to be the ban dits who were seen going down the river in a boat and word was tele- graphed to intercept them. Decker responded to the call and catching sight of the fugitives ordered them to land. They did so but one suddenly drew his revolver. Before he could fire Decker had shot him through the neck Another robber then fired at the officer and the second shot kit the heart. Both Decker and the robber who was shot died Immediately.
 The sound of the shots attracted scores of people to the scene and with in an hour posse was on the trail of the other two.

A Tie Created to be Played Off in New
 York Next Saturday.

New Haven. June 29.-Joy is unre strained at Yale over today's victory of the Varsity base ball nine over its old time rival, Harvard. Score: Yale 4, Harvard 0.

CARRIED GHAsTLY TRUNK
His Story at Variance With That of Ching Sin Who Authorities Now Think Did Not Tell All He Knew of the Tragedy.

New York, June 29-The facts as to the movements of Elsie Sigel's dead body came out through Arthur Logan, an eXpressman in the employ of the Constitution Express company. Logan said that at 12:36 D. m. on June 9, the supposed day of the mur- der. a lean, light colored Chinaman called at his office and told him he wanted q trunk carried from the top floor of TSP Eighth avenue to the address of a Chinese laundry, Wah Kee, 370 West 126th street.
 When Logan entered the Eighth avenue house shortly afterward he found Leon Ling waiting for him at the top of the fourth flight of stairs. The door to his room stood open, but was so dark that the place looked like a cave. He did not see the trunk until he stumbled over it, but no- ticed the door of an adjoining room ajar and four Chinamen were nov ing about. This is the door that Chung Sin, Loen Ling's intima. c friend. has sworn was closed.
 Logan lifted the trunk with the ltAP Ol Slll eloHlSNdiltS anu lOuIlu u heavy. Wah Kee was waiting for it at the 126th street address.
 An hour later a well dressed Japa- nese, or Chinese, called at the New York Taxicab company's office, cor ner of 121st and Eighth avenue, and asked how much it would cost him for taxicab to Newark. He was told SIP. and he instructed the driver to call at Wah Kee's laundry for somebody" The driver found that the heavier part of his fare was a stoutly corded trunk.
 The police now believe that Chung Sin, when he swore the trunk was in the Eighth avenue house on the night of June g, and that the door between his room and that of Leon Ling was never open, had a lapse of memory and that he knows more than he has told.

ACTIVE DEMAND
 FOR INDUsTRIALs
An Improvement In the Prices of
 Stocks.

New York, June 29-Such expan- sion of activity and interest as oc- cured in the stock market was trace able to dealings in the industrial group and in a number of special ties The growth of activity came from the buying side of the market and a substantial gain in prices re- suited. From among stocks of the obscure class the demand issued into better known industrials. Reading, which was practically the only promi- nent stock which rose yesterday, was held back. American sugar was prompt to respond favorably to pub lished reports that the statute of linn itation had not been found to operate as a bar to the proposed criminal prosecution by the federal authorities. The smelling and refining group was affected first in the copper and smelt- ing sections. Copper stocks shared in the strength caused by lead adviees, although immediate reports from the copper trade were less satisfactory and prices of the metal declined on the London market. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

 Messrs. Aldrich and Flint agreed that where building and loan associations are properly corporations for profit" they would be subject to the tax. MT. Cummins believed that these assOcia- tions were corporations for profit, !" but MT Flint declared that in his Judgment they could not be so declared so long as they divided their earnings among their members only.
