infusoriaI Earth Formed by Bodies of
Minute Shelifish.
Diatoms are tiny creatures that null
tiply very rapidly until they form a
scum upon the surface of the water in
many parts of the world. They are
rarely more than one-hundredth part
of an inch in diameter and often con-
siderably less. Their shells are conn
posed of silica, and these shells are
we'll known to the microscopic on &C
count of their great beauty.
When the little creatures die the
shells sink TO the bottom Of the stream
or pond. where they form kind OF
siliceous mud, and there are vast de-
posits of this material in various parts
of the earth. This infusorial earth, as
it is called, has been christened d.
atomite, and it is being used for
variety of purposes under the name
kieselguhr. 1t is employed as a We
hicle or absorbent for nitroglycerin.
and the resultant paste is dynamite.
Diatomite is an excellent nOncouductor
of heat, and in this capacity it is used
for filing the hollow interiors of the
walls of safes, as a lining for stoves
and furnaces and as covering for
steam pipes and boilers. For such pur-
poses as these it has an advantage
over asbestos in the matter of price
and also of weight.
1t can be made into bricks or slabs
by the addition Of n small quantity of
lime or clay. and these bricks can be
raised to white heat without show

W
land People.
Too many Rock Island citizens are
handicapped with a bad back. The
unceasing pain causes constant mis-
cry, making work burden and
STOPPING or lifting an impossibility.
The back aches at night, preventing
refreshing rest and in the morning
is stiff and lame. Plasters and lini-
ments may give relief, but cannot
reach the cause. To eliminate the
pains and aches you must cure the
kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick kid
neys and cure them permanently.
The following statement should
convince every Rock Island reader of
their efficiency.
Mrs. L. ]. Greves, 1922 Third
avenue, Moline, Ill, says: about
three years ago my back was in bad
shape and sometimes l could hardly
get up from a sitting position. Any
sudden movement sent sharp twinges
through my loins and when 1 got up
in the morning l felt tired and worn
out. There was a lameness and sore
ness across my loins and l had
dull, heavy ache through my kidneys.
Knowing Doan's Kidney Pills to be
a reliable medicine for kidney COM
plant, 1 procured a supply and be-
gan their use. 1 soon improved and
in a few weeks 1 was completely
cured. Since then 1 have not had
the least backache or trouble from
my kidneys"

An Astonished Woman and Still More
Astcnished Leopard.

Astcnishsd Leopard.
Kula is a district in the Himalayas
consisting of a chain Of the most love
Iy valleys conceivable, with this draws
back, among others. that each hill path
that runs by the inhabitants huts
more often than not contains a lurking
leopard One day a worthy Kula house
wife came out from her cooking and,
standing on the edge of rock, emptied
pan of boiling water into the rank
heritage growing below. 1t fell splash
on the back of sleeping leopard, who
jumped perpendicularly into the air as
high as the roof of the hut.
What might have happened next
who can say? But the astonished
woman dropped the pan with a clang
on the rock, and the leopard took one
leap downhin. The pan followed, and
the leopard's downward leaps became
longer and swifter as the pan bound
ed after it from rock to rock. When
last seen that leopard had just achiev-
ed a leap of about $50 feet to the very
bottom of the ravine, thousands of
feet below, and the pan whirled about
900 feet over 1t on to the opposite side.
The leopard would have eaten the
old woman with pleasure, but a pan.
the contents of which first scalded half
the hide of him and then bounded,
changing in his wake, from the top of
the Hima1ayas to the plains below was
something he could not face.

FEW Developments
IN THE MURDER CASE
Formal Complaint Will Proba-
bly, BE Filed Against SIR

There wcre few developments in the
karr'ek murder case Tuesday. Sheriff
Joseph e. Sharp and District Attorney
f. I. l.oofbourow visited tho Karric)s
nome Tuesday morning and made IL sur
Wy OF tho ground To check up on the
story OF tho crime told by Julius SIR
may From the investigation. Sheriff
Sharp and Attorney Loofbourow found
numerous discrepancies In Szirmays
story. aud they declare that the suspect
cd murderer has tangled himself In Il
net by his story.
Although the officers worked with
SZirmay again Tuesday. re would make
no further confession. and he still main
,ains that he did not fire the fatal shot
which ended young karriclts life.
No complaint charging SZirmay with
the murder of Thomas karrick has yet
been Issued. and the time OF his ar
rnignmcrt. therefore. is not yet known.
Tho complaint may be Issued today 1t
IS not definitely known In what court
tho alleged murderer will be arralgncd.
but il will probably he In ,hc criminal
division OF the city court.
The officers declare that from stale
mcnts made by SZirmay they are con-
vinced that he had no accompice In the
crime. ana they point TO circumstances
connected with tho robbery and murder
Of the boy which almost concluslveiy
prove that Szirmay was tho only man
TO enter the karrlck home.

After noticing Watson and his part,
ner mt the corner of Commercial street

attracted by Watson, one of the men
whom he remembered as having seen
minute or two before, running out OF

age as 81 years.
Gun Is Defective,
When Watson ordered the Chinese
to throw up his hands, Lang ran away
and he might have been shot but for
the fact that the gun which Watson
had would not discharge. This was
proven when an attempt was made to
fire the weapon at the police station fol

that The Chinese had made his escape
he turned around and ran, whereupon
Lang followed in pursuit.
