monuments of earlier mining methods,
contain millions of tons of briquettable
coal
Binding Material From 6y-Product
Coke Ovens.

Coke Ovens.
In 1909 the Geological Survey sug
gested that greater inducement to tn
investment of capital in briquetting
could be offered if investors were as
sured of regular supply of suitable
binding material The manufacture of
coke in by-product ovens, which yields
coal-tar pitch that makes an excellent
binder for briquets, has shown notable
progress in the last two or three years,
and as the by-product oven is continu-
ing to supplant the beehive oven at
an increasing rate, the supply of coal
tar pitch at a reasonable low cost
should be assured.
In addition to the slack from btu
minous, subbituminous, and semian-
thracite noncoking coal and small sizes
of anthrocite, three other kinds of raw
material for briquetted fuel are avail
able, namely, Ignite, peat, and coke
dust
The Los Angeles Gas & Electric
Corporation, of Los Angeles, Ca, op-
crates briquetting plant for utilizing
the carbon obtained as a by-product
in the manufacture of Illuminating gas
from crude petroleum. The briquets,
or ''boulets," make excellent domestic
fuel
The briquetting industry, according
| to Mr. Parker, has been retarded by
lattempts to exploit secret binders and
processes for which extraordinary and
impossible merits are claimed. The
pathway of briquetting development is
strewn with wrecks that are due to
this cause. There is no reason for
secrecy in connection with the constitu-
ents of patented binders. The field is
so large that there is room for every
one to develop the industry in paths
laid out by the experience of European
countries.
Twenty Brquet Plants in the United
States.
Twenty plants in the United States
manufactured compressed fuel in 1911,
an increase of 4 over 1909, but 4 OF
the 20 plants in 1911 were operated
only in an experimental way or for
demonstrating purposes. OF the COM
mercial plants, used anthrocite as a
raw material used bituminous coal
IL used semianthrscite, used refuse
from oil-gas works, 1 used peat, and
used mixed material. The manufac-
turers place their products on the mar.
ket under special names, such as "bou
let's "eggettes," "carbonets," coal
ettes,' and patent fuel"

JUDGE ORDERS
PRISONERS HELD.
Conduct Of County Prisoners is Re-
ported to be Unbecoming--crim-
inal Cases BEING Tried.

H'ci OoS~S DCli9 tItSQ.
On Wednesday morning Judge S. +.
Parks, after having been informed that
one of the county prisoners had es-
capped from the guard appointed by the
board of county commissioners to work
the county prisoners and after having
been informed by the jailer that one of
the county prisoners had been return
ed to the jailer in an intoxicated condi-
tion, ordered the sheriff not to permit
the county prisoners to go out under
guards appointed by the county COM
missioners, for the reason that the
conduct as reported of the prisoners
while under the guard was shame
and would bring disgrace upon all of
the officials OF this county.
Judge Parks stated that the county
commissioners and the guards appoint
ed by them were solely responsible for
the conduct Of such prisoners, and that
liz the county commissioners would not
see to it that the county prisoners GO
ing to jail from the county court were
properly guarded and worked as re-
quired by law, that such prisoners
would not be permitted to leave the
county Jail and that they would not
be allowed to go out under the orders
of the county commissioners
The judge stated that heretofore the
county judge, the county attorney and
the sheriff had been criticised for the
conduct of the county prisoners and
that he did not desire to have such
officials criticised when one of them
were responsible inasmuch as the coun-
ty commissioners appointed their own
guards, and that the guards 60 to the
Jail and get the prisoners and return
them to the jaler after each days
work.
! Sheriff Ridenhour had however after
hearing of the conduct of the county
prisoners refused to allow them to be
taken out of the Jail any more by the
guards appointed by the board OF eoun-
ty commissioners Judge Parks stated
that SO long as he was judge of this
county that the orders of his court
would be carried into effect, and that
he had been assisted in every particu-
lar by the county attorney and the
sheriff in carrying into execution the
Judgment of his court, and that he did
not desire that any of such officials
be further criticised in matters for
which they are not responsible. Sheriff
Ridenhour has been criticised by
number of persons and on a number
of accisions for the conduct of these
prisoners while in the hands of the
guard appointed by the board of county
commissioners and Judge Parks an
nounced emphatically that no criti-
cism of any character should be lodged
against Sheriff Ridenhour, for the rea-
son that he is not responsible in any
way for the conduct Of the prisoners
after they are taken from his 1ailer,
and are in the hands of the guard ap-
pointed by the county commissioners.
A number of criminal cases have
been tried. Among those tried were the
Pierce and Hoffman case, in which
cases the jury returned verdict of
guilty as to each defendant
Criminal business will likely be con-
cluded on today, after which time the
civil matters will be taken up.

RootIeaaer Makes Escape.

N. H. Langley escaped from the
guard over the road gang with which
he was working four miles southeast
of town yesterday afternoon. Langley
was recently convicted in the county
court for bootlegging and yesterday
was his second day of hard labor
sentence. He has not been heard from
since the escape.

SUN DANCE IS
FOREVER BARRED
Government Mandate interiors With
cheyennes' Religious Customs.


Clinton, Okla, July 10. = The run
dance among the Cheyenne Indians is
forever barred by statute and traffic in
the peyote bean is illegal, is the man
date of the commissioner of Indian af-
fairs, according to De Forest Antelope
and several other Cheyenne Indian
sub-chiefs who have just returned
from Washington where they went to
interview the commissioner in the hope
that he would permit them to indulge
in the sun dance and other aboriginal
religious ceremonies.
Commissioner Valentine informed
them that he would permit the cele-
bration of the willow and gift dances,
provided they are held in the autumn
after the crops are made, and with the
further provision that during the gift
dance the Indians do not give away
valuable property.
The Indians had arranged for their
annual sun dance but upon learning
there were objections to it sought the
advice of the government.

Thus declared Mrs Henry Bowman
last night to her husband, when the
two were ia king over their daughters
future. Out in front of the house, n
the Indian summer night, Schmidt
and Freda were planning their honey
moon, after Henry had asked time
to talk over the young mans applica-

"Well, Amanda, if he wants any

"Now, you know Amanda, Freda is

that to marry into this family he
should not only have Dean Sumner
license, but also a certificate of san

A rolling pin interrupted further re-
marks, the husband replied in kind,
and today he appeared in police court
on a charge of assault and battery.
The Judge warned him not to let So
illogical researches of the Sumner

Rival Long, Tight Type Late
Iy introduced

New York, Oct. 26.-In addition to
the main lines upon which apparel OF
the pear is built, there are side issues
of intense interest. Everything is be-
ing issued with a new aspect, from the
black wooden crochet belt wrought
with crude flowers made of wool, to
the mans shirt front neatly tucked or
fastened with couple of pearls.
Sleeves, ever indicative of a change
in the modes, are of various patterns
One passes in admiration from the
closely clinging designs of the late
summer to the full and tilmy draperies
made of tulle, which fall in folds about
the arms, only to acknowledge a mo-
ment later the charm of the pushed up
model which recalls the unsophisticat-
ed milkmaid design, and is a partic-
ularly well-liked choice for children
and the girl of IT:
Draperies are assuredly to continue
their triumphs this autumn, and one of
the many testimonials in their favor is
made by a dressmaker who is Civ ng
the prestige of great name to the
folded basque. To exaggerate the piQ-
uancy of it's charm would be impos
sible
1t is made in every case of a lissome
fabric which can be turned and tw St
ed with ease by the master hand, here
to introduce a graceful undulation
without form yet of infinite beauty,
and anon perchance of sufficient defin-
ition to splay a pointed effect to a
too rotund figure.

WOMAN SHOT DEAD
FOR FIGHTING VICE
Three Suspects Have Been
Caught

Bridgeport, Conn, Oct. 27-Th'
young woman identified as Rose Bun
mis-, who was shot to death last might
at Stratford, to which place she haC
been taken by five men in an ANTONIO
bile, was killed because of her activity
in the "vice crusade" in Chicago, de-
clared Bridgeport police today, after
investigating the murder A statement
to this effect was made by Detective
Captain George Arnold after several
hours of questioning the three Italians
CAPTURED after the shooting. The pris-
oners are: Joe Bunano, known as
Chicago Joe;" Joseph Motto and
Frank Pizzichenni
Under rigid examination, Bunano
according to Capt. Arnold, has confess
sed to having shot the woman, who, ne
saws, for the last four months, had
been his common aw wife. In extern
uation, Bunano says he was under the
influence of liquor and did not know
what he was doing. Bunano said the
woman's husband, John Achilli OF New
York, died about six months ago, and
that two months later he took the
young woman as his common-law wife.
His stories leading up to the shooting
were conf citing. No trace has been
found of the two missing men sought
in connection with the murder.
In a small knit handbag which the
slain woman carried were found a
card bearing the name Rev. Alice
Phillips Aldrich," and statement of
the Chicago Law and Order League.
The police theory connecting the
murder with the Chicago antivice Cruz
SADIE is based mainly on the rumor
that the woman furnished evidence
that was used in proceedings against
the disorderly district here, and also
on the presence in her purse OF the
card of a leader in the Chicago cru
SADIE.
