GREAT EXHIBIT OF
RUBBER rs OPENED
New York Has Unique Show. Depict
ting the Industry From the Tree
to the Consumer.

New York, n. Y, Sept. 21.-One Of
the most remarkable exhibitions ever
held in New York-the third Interna-
tional Rubber and Allied Trades expo
sition, which will be on view from
September % to October at the Grand
Central palace-was officially pro-
nounced ready for public inspection to-
day.
The rubber exposition comprises,
among other things, over $1,000, 900
worth of raw ruboer from every rubber
producing country in the world, an ex-
tensive exhibit of manufactured rub
Der and the practical working meth
DDS by which the raw material is re-
fined to a composition suitable Tor
manufacture. To exempIify this latter
been imported from the lands where
they flourish to the Grand Central pail
ace. There they will be MIXED and the
latex, as the milk is technically known,
will be transformed to the manufac-
tured product before the eyes of the
visitor.
The international Congress of Rub
Der Manufacturers will hold its session
during the period occupied by the rub
Der exposition. This body includes
planters. chemists and scientists from
every rubber producing country in the
world.
A. Staines Manders, who is managing
the exhibit, called particular attention
TO the American rubber exhibit. He
said:
1T is not generally known that the
United States is interested in the
growing of rubber, but I am happy to
state that some of the most interesting
exhibits are from the American colony
in Hawaiian islands. The Philippines,
too. are very productive in rubber. DR..
James Walter Strong has taken charge
of the island exhibit.
The United States consumes nearly
one-half of the rubber produced every
year and more than three times. the
amount used by Great Britain or Ger
many Nearly all the important gov
ernments that had space in the Lon
don exhibition have space here, and
Brazil has five times as much space as
in London. Rubber has come into such
general use that few persons not IA
miliar with the industry realize its ex-
tent.
The estimated production of rubber
in 1911 was 5000 tons, according to
the India Rubber World, Of New York,
The market price a pound for crude
rubber is SIPS. On this basis the
worlds crude rubber supply for one
year would be worth 1920, 600, 600.

BEDBUGS MAY BE
CAUSE OF NEW TRIAL

Columbus, Ind, Sept. 21.-Whether
or not a poor, hard working little
cimex Iectularius will have anything
to do with a mans liberty is to be de-
termined this week in the Bartholo-
new circuit court. Many people are
not familiar with cimex by its Latin
name, but call it a bedbug and nearly
everybody has heard of it. When the
jury in the case against Enzer Reed.
of Hope, charged with dynamiting the
Hope school building, was sent to the
room usually used for jury duty in
the courth 5use, one of the Jurors in
looking around the room said he had
found a bedbuS.
The other members of the jury knew
what would be said if they carried
bedbugs home with them and they
called the bailiff and demanded an
other jury room. The bailiff had no
instructions to move them, but the
jurors said they did not propose to
stay in a room infested with bedgugs
and they were moved to the office of
the county assessor.
Whether this haid any effect on the
verdict of guilty, which the jury re-
turned against Reed has not been de-
termined- Objections have been filed
to the verdict by attorneys for Reed
on the ground that members for the
jury were allowed to talk with others,
who were not members of the jury,
while they were celebrating. 1t is
alleged the jurors talked to outsiders
while seeking refuge from the bed
bugs The defence objects to a num-

sentative is the widespread prevalence
OF tuberculosis among teachers. 1t is
shown that during a period of four
years there were more than twice as
many deaths among teachers of a given
age as among other people. While
more than one-fourth of all the deaths
of teachers during these years was
caused by tuberculosis, less than one
tenth of all deaths occurring in Michi-
gan were caused by that disease.
This large death rate from tubercu-
losiS among Michigan teachers is. at
tributed in part to poor school room
sanitation. and there is a movement on
foot to have only tuberculOsis-free
teachers appointed and then give them
such sanitary surroundings as will
save them from taking their lives in
their hands when entering the school
room.

The biggest fish story of the season

Zoo, and. as might be supposed from
this distinction, it is a remarkable one
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1912-09-21

to say the least The Zoo is now in
possession Of fish which can climb, a
tank containing dozen climbing perch
having just been received there, the
gift of an Englishman who on his last
visit to this city promised to send back
anything which he might run across
during his travels. The result is the
climbing perch in question which comes
from India and is about 10 inches in
length. They have been placed in a
tank around the edges of which is a
wooden platform. The Zoos fish
keeper explained that they get their
name from the fact that when they de-
sire to take nap they climb up the
side of the tank TO the platform on
which to enjoy their sleep. Forum
ately the fish are on public view so
that incredulous persons can inspect
them first hand instead of having to
rely on hearsay evidence, as is the case
in most fish stories. incidentally the
arrival of the climbing perch seems
likely to throw some light on the moot
ed question as to whether fish sleep.
