An electric lighting plant in
Nebraska is manufacturing ice as a
by-product. The exhaust steam of
the plant, which would otherwise
go to waste, is utilized in ammonia
absorption process of ice manu-
facture, and also for distilling waste
from which the ice is made. This
venture, we are informed, has
proved a very profitable one, for
the lighting company, and might
be copied to advantage bygother
plants similarly situated. = "
A new system of treating eggs
so as to prevent them fom growing
stale when in cold storage, has
been discovered, in Rochester.
This consists in subjecting the eggs
to an electrial current. The
theory is that eggs when placed in
storage are alive and are gradually
frozen to death, where as if the life
is destroyed by an electric current
before they are placed in. storage
they do not taste stale, even when
kept on ice for a long period of
time. :.
The Great Western Railway in
England is installing a compact
railway ticket printing machine.
When a ticket for a certain station
is required, the clerk touches an
indicator which carries the name
of the station, slips blank into a
slot, turns a handle, and the CON-
pleted ticket drops out. At the
same time a record of the sale
printed on. a continuous strip of
paper, together with the fare and
all information required for book
keeping. When the clerk goes off
duty, he simply has to total up the
continuous strip of paper and count
his cash.

STROYED BY FIRE

Sunday night Western Pacific
passenger engine No. 10, at a coal
burner, was run into the round
house over an oilpit. Although a
Greek is on duty as night hostler,
nothing unsual was noticed until
parties from the outside discovered
a fire. Running to the house they
discovered that the engine was a
mass of flames, and that the fire
had gained such Roadway that it
could not be extinguished. 1t was
accordingly allowed to burn itself
out, when 1t was found that all

The evidence in the murder trial
closed Wednesday afternoon and
court adjourned until 10 O'Clock
Thursday forenoon.
District Attorney Taber began
the opening argument for the state
when court convened this morning.
He gathered up the points of the
evidence and made an able state
ment of the case from the stand
point OF prosecutor. He did not
mince matters in speaking of the
filth in the case, neither did he
spare the defendant. SoIfar as her
victim was concerned, Impressed
upon the jury the fact! that he
would waste no time in the defense
of his character. He spoke for an
hour and twenty minutes, closing
with plea to the jury to do its
duty and bring in verdict in &C
cordance with the Iaw..and the evil
dence. 4; = - ,
Mr.. Gedney then .made..the open
ing argument for thessdefense. He
presented the main points of the de-
tense in convincing way. He
devoted considerable time: in dis
secting the hypothetical question
asked by the district attorney of
the physicians called as experts on
insanity. He consumed the re-
mainder of the forenoon session in
presenting the defendant'S,case. -,
Court convened at-2 O'CLOCK, and
Judge King began the. closing
argument for the defenses He de-
fined the crime of murder and its
different degrees and claimed that
the elments of malice, prem edita-
ton and deliberation were not in
the case at bar and, therefore, the
defendant was not guilty of murder
in either the first or second degree.
He then took up the evidence and
showed from it the mental and
physical condition of the defendant
just before and at the time she
killed Carroll. Judge King did
not spare the deceased and spoke
OF him as an inhuman monster in
his treatment of the defendant.
His remarks. were closely followed
by the jury and a crowd court
room. He was still speaking at 8
o. clock when this report closed.
District. Attorney Taber: will
follow Judge King and, at the con-
clusion of his address, Judge
Brown will read his instructions
to the jury. The case will prob
ably go to the jury late this after
noon.
