The whole art of cement construc-

make a mold and then pour cement into
it. The boards of these mods are re-

With tools could easily make out of

OF VICTIMS
TO HUNT MURDERER

Aberdeen, Wash. March 2S.-A
posse composed of seven or eight
picked men, close friends of Colin Nc
Kenzie and A V. Elmer, the two dep
uties murdered in the woods near
Saatsop, by John Turnow, nearly three
weeks ago, is expected to leave here
soon to take up the search for the
murderer.
The men, who are thorough woods
men and know the country they are
invading, will be provisioned for a
three or four weeks trip. They VIII
not go as deputy sheriffs, but with
the sanction of the sheriff. Should
the expedition fail, Sheriff Payette
will send a posse of picked deputies
into the woods to take W the hunt
The reward now totals $4,000, with
the $1,000 offered by the state. Two
thousand dollars is offered by the
county for the apprehension of Tor
now and $4,000 for his arrest and con-
viction.
Sheriff Payette has refused to make
public the names of the special posse
to date, but will do so when they
leave. Tornow is still supposed to
be in the Satsop country. He is
known to have had aid during the
winter and received mail at Pacific
Beach, so miles from his present hid
ing place which is reached by a trail
through the woods.

n. Y. JUDGE ORDERS COURT
OFFICIALS TO CARRY PISTOLS

New York.-Following the sensa-
tonal killing of Judge Thornton l..
Massie and officers of his court at
Hillsville, Va, Chief Magistrate Will
liam McAdoo of the New York city
courts has decided that all the uni
formed attendants and clerks in the
courts under his jurisdiction must
carry revolvers.
Mr. McAdoo took this step after a
consultation with the other magis-
trates, who agreed that under the
former method of conducting the po-
lice courts there is little protection
afforded the presiding magistrates
from attack, because none of the
court attendants was armed. Fre-
Quently attendants in the police courts
have had hand to hand conflicts with
members of criminal bands who have
visited the courts in behalf of con-
federates who have been arrested.
The arming of the uniformed at
tendants of the police courts is eX-
pected to revolutionize the whole Sys-
tenn of protecting the other courts OF
the city.
