FATHER OF THE STEEL INDUS
TRY.

BETHLEHEM, Pa, Aug. 21-John
Fritz, known far and wide as the
father of the steel Industry in the
United States, attained his nine
tieth birthday anniversary today.
The dinner given at the Waldorf As
toria in New York ten years ago in
celebration of tht eightieth birthday
of Mr.. Fritz is still remembered as
one of the most remarkable gather
ings ever assembled in this country
of captains Of invention and industry
and the central figures Of finance al
lied with the iron trade.
1t was hoped that some similar af-
fair might be held to commemorate
Mr.. Fritz's ninetieth year, but the
precarious condition Of his health
caused the idea to be abandoned. For
the past six months the veteran iron
master has been in very poor health
and during much of the time has
been bedfast. During this time mes
sages of inquiry and cheer have been
received at his home almost daily
from leading men in the iron and
steel world, from Andrew Carnegie
down to the active present day plant
managers, many of whom in years
past were numbered among Mr..
Fritz's "boys."
John Fritz long ago earned his
title of father of the steel industry
not by any single invention or dis
covery, but by a contribution Of new
devices, new methods and practical
work in building up the industry in
the middle part of Pennsylvania, he
gained a position in the steel in
dustry that has been recognized by
the whole world.
At the age Of 16 Mr.. Fritz left his
fathers ram to work in country
machine shop, with view Of learn
ing the trade Of a machinist. After
various experiments in steel making
at Norristown and Safe Harbor, he
went to Johnston, where he remod
eled an old mill and built what Is
now known as the Cambria Iror
Works. 1t was at this period that
in connection with his brother Georg'
he designed and erected the vel
known "three high bloomers" will
their automatic tables and the "thre'
high mills" These inventions start
ed an economical revolution In tn
steel manufacture.
When the United States govern
ment, some 25 years ago, decided t
build a modern navy Of armor plate
vessels equipped with guns Of grea
calibre, there was no plant In tn
country where the plates, guns an
forgings for such ships could b
made. Bethlehem was selected ns tn
site for the projected plant and MI
Fritz was chosen as the man to bull
it. He went to Europe and sper
some months in studying the plat
and gun making plants there, whe
he returned he built a plant that SUI
passed its European models. Anon

SECOND DEGREE
 MURDER VERDICT
GARTER GETS 21 YEAR PENALTY FOR THE KILLING OF AN
 OTHER NEGRO.
Jury Was Inclined to Enfore the Ex- treme Penalty, on the First Vote
 Taken This Morning.

At 12:30 o'clock this morning jury in circuit court brought in yer dict against J R. Garter, negro, finding him guilty of murder in the second degree for the killing of Bud WoodfoTl, another negro.
 The penalty under the verdict is twenty-one years in the state peni- tentiary.
 The case had attracted the atten- ton of circuit court for the past hree days. It was given over to the jury about 11:30 o'clock last night after lengthy argumepts on both sides ot the case.
 The case was the first criminal ac- tion tried by Prosecuting Attorney Witt and Deputy Prosecuting Attor- ney Wilmington. It was prosecuted most vigorously from start to finish.
 The negro defendant was repre- sented by Attorney Mcconnell and Long. These attorneys believe that reversible error was committed when they were not permitted to introduce the character of the negro killed, nor permitted to introduce evidence of dttdCkS tUe SidlH HcSAO ldQ HtdQC oh Carter before the tragedy.
 The evidence in brief in the case was that Carter, rheumatic negro, and Bud Woodfork, an athletic ball player. had been gambling over an Elm street saloon, and Garter had won the money Woodfork had pre- viously attacked Garter, and booted him around, and after Carter won this money. Woodfork slapped him about. and they were both put out of the place.
 Woodfork went into restaurant, and Carter went away and got him. self a pistol. and came back, shoot ing Woodfork Deputy Coroner Dr. John s. Wood, who held the inquest, found large rock in the pocket of Woodfork. but no other thing that could have been used as weapon was found on him.

PREPARATION FOR RAINY DAY
Supply of Clean, Dry Sand Will Pro v.So Amusing Occupation fer .he
 Little Ones.

The outdoor sand pile is time honored institution, but out of doors offers many other attractions, so we improved on the idea.
 A box was made, about nine inches high, and in other dimensions just a little smaller than the nursery bed. It was fitted with casters, lined with a pale green oilcloth, and a box plait- ing of green denim was put around the outside with brass-headed tacks. Next a barrelful Of fine white sand was put in-and the stormy day problem was solved.
 The little maid, less than a year old when the box was first introduced. was perfectly safe, and she never seemed to tire of it's endless attrac- tions Nearly all her toys were kept there; old playing cards would stand ID in the sand to form houses and fences; trains of cars had much busi- ness to transact, and many hours were spent just ladling the sand into a big, thick bottle with an old tin spoon and pouring it out again.
 The little occupant was taught from the first that no sand was to go on the floor. and we never had the least trou- ble even after the little sister came to share the box few years later. In deed. it proved the cheapest, safest and best device that ever was invent ed for keeping the little ones happily entertained.
