STEEL BARONS ACCUSED
Big Plants Denounced as "Hu-
man Slaughter Houses.

A congressional investigation of steel
works in the United States was de-
manded by Arthur E. Holder, legisla-
tive, representative of the American
Federation of Labor, while appearing
before the senate committee on public
health and discussing the Owen bill
to create department of public
health.
Mrs Holder asserted that steer mills
of Ohio and Pennsylvania are slaugh-
ter houses where men are MANNED
and crippled for life because of care
lessness and overwork, and declared
that murder is actually committed in
hospitals to which these unfortunates
are sent for treatment.
Speaking upon information which
has recently been impaired to him, Mr..
Holder stated to the committee that
an investigation would probably dis
close that in the hospi+o attached to
one OF the steel plants patients are
murdered on the theory that dead
man is not as much trouble as d Grip
pied one.

Some Curious Weathercocks.

The Weathercock had its origin at a
very early date. Marcus Virtruvius
Pollia. a noted Roman architect and
engineer. who was born about 80 b. c..
in his works calls vaDe triton.
probably because in his time it had
the form of triton. The usual form
on towers. castles and secular build
ings was that of a banner. but on &C.
cleSiaStical buildings it was a repre-
sentation of the male of the barnyard
fowl There have been other forms
of vane. The one over ST. Peters
CorDhill. London. is in the shape of a
key: that over st. MiIdreth's church is
a gilt ship under full sail The grass
hopper of the Royal Exchange. Lon
don. is the vane that formerly sur
mounted the former exchange. The
dragon Oh the Spire of Bow church.
Cheapside. is another celebrated vane.
One of Mother Shipton's prophecies
was that when the dragon of Bow
church and the grasshopper of the
Royal Exchange should meet the
streets of London would be deluged
with blood. In what way they should
meet the old dame did not explain. but
it is known that at one time these two
vanes were side by side in the yard
of stonemason in Old Street road.
yet there was no shedding of blood

SPlTZEn PARDONED
BY PREo|TlEnT TAFT
Tells Court Of Fraud In the
Weighing Of Sugar.

At New York the trump card
In the prosecution of Charles R. Heike.
secretary of the American Sugar Re-
fining company, was played at the OPP
ening of the sugar trust underwe1gh-
ing conspiracy trial when Prosecutor
Stimson called as the government S
first witness, Oliver Splitter, superin-
tendent of the Williamsburg docks,
who some months ago was convicted
of underweighing and sentenced to two
years in the penitentiary at Atlanta.
When Splitter took the stand John
B. Stanchfeld, for the defense, claimed
that under the federal statute Splitter,
as convicted man, could not testify
The sensation of the trial was then
created by the declaration in court
that Splitter had been given uncondi.
tional pardon by President Taft.
Heike is on trial in the United States
circuit court with five former employees
of the American Sugar Refining com
pany on the charge of conspiring to
defraud the government by under
weighing cargoes of sugar imports
Splitter demonstrated to the court
the workings of the fraudulent devices
by which the government was cheated
out of millions of dollars by false
weights, it is alleged.
Splitter went back to the years 1894
and 1895, when, he said, an investfga-
ton he made developed the fact that
the checkers were affecting the weight
on raw sugar by placing small bags
of lead on the beams of the scales,
causing the recorded weights to drop
below the actual, often as much as for
dy pounds on each draft.
In addition Splitter said it was also
the practice to stuff paper underneath
the floors of the scales for the same
purpose. He said that when Deputy
Surveyor Vail took Office these devices
were abandoned and the use Of the
steel corset spring instead was begun
and continued.
Splitter demonstrated to the court
the use Of the bags of lead. He walked
over to the sample scale, which is one
of the governments exhibits in the
case, and indicated on the beam the
place where the bag was suspended.
The jury and the defendants and
every body in the court room followed
his demonstration with the closest at
tention.
Splitter also showed how the steel
corset spring was used to make the
scales record underweight.

Fees smarnino Have Scouts.

SwarmS of bees are sometimes COM
nelled to rake refuge in very remark
able shelters. A peculiar and instruc-
tive instance was observed by the
writer one spring The swarm few
over large vineyard which contained
few buildings One of these buildings
was constructed of hollow concrete
blocks The swarm flew directly to-
ward a small hole i'm one of the blocks
and disappeared in the interior. No
doubt The swarm had rested on tree
or shrub on the preceding day and
had sent out scouts to seek a home
The scouts found the little hole lead
ing into the great cavity Of the con-
crete block and reported their discov-
cry 70 their comrades. This case fur
niSheS indisputabl proof that swarm
ing bees really send out scouts. as
they are believed to do. for the little
hole could not have been discovered in
the rapid and lofty fight of the
Swarm.-Scientitic American.

PRINCE BORN; SOON DIES
Queen of Spain Is Accouched While
the King Is in England.

The fourth child of Queen Victoria
and King Alfonso of Spain was born,
but the infant prince died within a
few minutes.
Shortly after the birth bulletin was
issued by the physicians of the queen
saying that her condition was salts
factory. 1t is understood that the
death of her uncle, King Edward VII,
was a great shock to the queen.
King Alfonso, who has been in Lon
don for the funeral of King Edward,
will find his own land saddened on his
return.
The booming of guns announced the
arrival of the third son to the young
couple. Within less than half an hour,
however, the tolling of bells in the
great churches told the people that
the young prince was dead.

Carlisle Man Awarded Contract.

C. Ii. EaggerS, superintendent of the bridge and building de- partment of the Rock Island Lines m Arkansas, was in Car lisle one day last week looking after the company's vast i'm provements here.
 While here he awarded the con tract for putting in the con crete floor in the new depot to J E. Deeter, the concrete man, of tkis city. There are many other concrete jobs being arranged by the company. including a 6-foot waG entirely encigcling the de- pottnd la,ge toundation for the 65 5,0o0 gallon steel water tank, which will soon be erected on the south side of the railroad, oppo- site the present wooden tank. Mr. Deeter has the contract for all this work and has begun work on same.
 This speaks well for Mr Dee ter and shows what persistent egorts will do. Other concrete firms bid on this work, but failed to get it. A little over five years ago Mir. Deeter began the manu- facture of concrete blocks in this this city and for some time his business suffered h usual slump of all new adventures, but it finally came to it's own and now his concrete blocks are used as fouddations under nine tenths of the new buildings throughout this section. He has also erected six concrete business houses here and his blocks figure large l ly in two more.
 He has also put down a large amount of sidewalk in and nea1 town. all of which has proved by l test to be better than the other mans.

Weather Forecasts by Telephone.

Through the cooperation of the Southwestern Telegraph and Telephone Company with the Weather Bureau, U. $. Depart ment of Agriculture, the daily weather forecasts covering the 36-hour period ending at D. m. of the following day and the special warnings of cold waves, floods, Etc, will be disseminated over the lines of that company on and after August 26 1910. This information may be had by every patron of the company whether city or country sub scriber, within two hours after it's issue. There will be about 50 points of distribution in Ark ansas from which several hun dred rural telephone lines will extend into remote districts.
 City subscribers may obtain the forecasts and warnings by calling the long distance opera tor of their exchange at any hour during the day after 10 a. m., central time. Rural subscribers will be called up about noon each day by long ring from their op- orator. who will then announce the forecasts to all subscribers simultaneously.
 The reports will also be dis played at all exchanges receiving in their waiting room or other appropriate place, for the benefit of the public.
 It is difficult to estimate the value of this servce to rural pop ulation, whose everyday affairs depend so much upon weather conditions, and by telephones will be made double useful to the patrons of the company.
