Tia Mc.amant Gun"

In reconstructing the Grand Central
terminal yards at New York cement
gun" is used to apply mortar cover
ing to the structural steel work. A
mixture of dry sand and cement Is
shot from a nozzle by compressed air.
A second hose delivers to the same
nozzle a supply of water under pres
sure, and the mixture of sand. cement
and water is shot out with q velocity
of about $50 feet per second. The noz-
zle Is arranged TO produce a thorough
wetting of the material. As the mix
ture strikes the surface to be covered
the coarse sand grains rebound until
the fine cement mortar, Which al
heres Immediately. has formed plas-
tic base in which the coarse particles
become imbedded. A covering of any
required thickness Is then rapidly built
up. A similar gun is used on the Pan
anna canal in covering the sides of the
Culebra cut with cement to prevent
the unstable earth from sliding into
the canal Exchange.

Disease In Books,

DR.. s. Dana Hubbard of the board
of health told the members of the
New York Library association that
greater precautions should be taken
by the officials of circulating libraries
against the dissemination of infec-
tious diseases through books. "One Of
the most indefatigable readers on an
ocean liner during one of its recent
crossings" he said, was q young man
just recovering from smallpox. When
his condition was discovered the whole
ships library was disinfected. Every
public library should have a corps of
inspectors whose duty 1t should be
to subject ali books returned By read
ers to rigid examination. All those
which bear suspicious looking marks
should be destroyed. and all books
should be subjected to disinfeeting
process at frequent intervals. New

PROF. ASWELL GRASPiNG AT A
STRAW.

In the perplexity of his political
aspirations Prof. Aswell is graspine
at a straw. He would magnify a
molehill into a mountain, if he could,
but he can not. II may be recalled
that Prof. Aswell and some of his
followers Illuminated and clustered
exceedingly over the Bernstein let
ter which on its recoiI was discred-
liable to the individuals connected
with an attempt to besmirch the
name of a good man and most
worthy citizen. And now, after sew
eral months have elapsed, in the ar
duous but vain effort to find some-
thing or anything that could be
charged against Judge Hail. it would
seem that Prof. Aswell and some OF
his adherents would hold him ac-
countable for the delin1uencies con-
nected with the Tensas Basin Levee
Board land transaction.
1t will not be questioned thai
Judge Hall when a State senator
submitted and voted for what il
known as Act No. III, but it will moi
be charged by implication or directly
that Judge Hall has had any relation
or connection with The irregularities
and the frauds which have devel-
oped in the disposal of the levec
board lands.
To even suggest that Judge Hal
has had or could have had connee-
tiOn with such fraud or with any
fraud whatsoever or with any irreg-
ularity or scheme having for its pur-
pose any intent at dishonesty, is moi
only base and cowardly, but its au-
thor should be branded with infamy
The enactment upon which Prof
Aswell and some of his adherents
are Illuminating beyond common
sense and reason, was suggested FOL
a good purpose, but if some rascal
would profit in attempts at land
stealing, Judge Hall should not be
held responsible or accountable fol
such stealing.
1t seems To be the extreme of the
ridiculous to even imply by some
means Of secret evasion that Judge
Hall could be associated in any such
transaction, and this audaeious at
tempt OF reflection and detraction
will fall harmless at Judge Halls
feet.
1t may be declared that the char
acter OF Judge Hall is beyond the
reach of the shrewdest of unscrupu-
lous politicians and time-servers
Such detraetion must recoil on the
Individuals guilty of defamation OF
character.
This query has been propounded
~Will Hall Meet Aswell?n
Why should Hall meet Aswell OF
any man connected with Aswell who
would attempt to besmirch his. good
name, his character, especially in
the base and coWardly effort to con-
meet him with a land stead?
The man who has not lived in the
Tensas levee district is to be con-
graaulated-he at least is safe from
d charge of connection with the land
frauds perpetrated there.
