Faults Of the Aeroplane.

Commercially, the aeroplane is USE
less in its present state. 1t cannot
carry any great weight, 1t will not
stand any extra strain and Is unable
to fly unless the weather be almost
perfect. Automatic stability is still
in an imperfect stage, and the motors
are not altogether reliable. Last, but
not least, it Is a very expensive ma
chine, both in its first cost and In the
outlay necessary to keep it in proper
condition.
These faults, as well as many others,
must be overcome before we have a
practical flying machine. Danger must
be eliminated to q greater degree, and
to do this 1t Is necesarsy to produce
a machine that will automatically bal
ance itself. A thoroughly reliable mo-
tor and machine capable of standing
any extra strain suddenly placed upon
1t are other requirements Of the future
aeroplane.

COAL CLAIMS, 800,

Applications Not Made in Proper Time
In Alaska.

Applications Not Made in Proper Time
In Alaska.
Juneau, Alaska.-Three hundred of
the 100 Alaska coal claims have been
Cancelled by the general land office.
In most of the cases the charge filed
against the claim was that application
for patent had not been made within
the time required by law.
Four claims in the Rathbone group,
in the Boring river field. were can
celed because 1t was charged that the
locations we're not made in good faith,
but for the benefit of certain wealthy
men in Portland, Ore. No reply was
made to the charges.
Forty-three claims in the Watson
group have been cancelled. Frank
Watson, the promoter of this group,
was indicted at Chicago in March,
1911, for conspiracy to defraud the
United States of the use and possession
of these lands, which are in the Mat
anuska district.
Charges of fraud or failure to apply
for patent are pending against prac
tically all of the Alaska coal claims
not already Cancelled. Only 80 claims
in Matanuska are now uncanceled.

HOW MONEY IS DESTROYED

As the great difficulty which mos

them, 1t will probably come as sur
prise to many to learn there are yet
others for whom the difficulty Is how
to get rid Of them. The difficulties en-
tailed in destroying such paper ara
well illustrated in very interesting
article upon paper destruction by the
German imperial printers, the Kansas

The methods previously available
were three-burning, boiling and pulp

found that even where a special fur

blocks, the interiors Of which were

In the second process the paper for
destruction is placed in iron boilers;
lye Is added and the contents then sub

small quantities this is quite effectual.
