THEY SPRUNG SOMETHING new

a criminal, who murdered II
woman in cold blood in Illinois,
was found guilty by jury, which
recommended life imprisonment,
with the stipulation that on each
anniversary Of his crime the con
victed follon should he placed in
n dungeon and fed on bread and
water. The jury also ATTEMPTED IN
muzzle the board of pardons by
declaring that the verdict should
be immune from interference and
Mt same time stating that hanging
was too good for a,crimial Of hi
disposition. The court, however,
could not see its way clear to &C.
cepting such a verdict, and
directed the jurors to brig in q
new one.

SOAP ENABLED HIM
TO ESCAPE

With a liberal application of
soap on his naked body and five
hours work by four companions,
E. B. Keepers, 2O0-pound
prisoner in the Bexar county Jail,
Texas, was hauled to freedom
through a hole less than fourteen
inches in diameter.
Keepers was lathered until he
was foam from head to foot, and
head first he was started through
the opening. Part way he stuck,
and for nearly five hours his mates
worked to get him through. He
was finally landed out side, more
dead than alive, and was carried
away by his companions. But the
experience was too much for the
big fellow and he was captured
within twenty-four hours.

FREQ HESS

the stories that have been sent
from here about Fred Hess are
most outrageous. He IS pictured
as an outlaw. hunted bS officers
through the mountains, and finally
captured half frozen in an Indian
camp. All of which is nothing
more nor less than malicious lie.
In conversation with Sheriff
Harris this forenoon regarding
these stories he spoke with consid-
cradle feeling and denounced them
as gross outrage.
We do not know Mr.. Hess nor
any Of the parties directly connect
ed with the affair at the Red
House. Hess may be very bad
man in the eyes of those who made
the charge against him, bat from
what we can learn Of him from
Sheriff Harris hr has heretofore
been a quiet, peaceful, law abiding
citizen. II the whiskry he drank
that night in a drunken orgy made
him commit an offense against the
law, he should be given a fair trial
and if convicted he will doubtless
receive the punishment the offcnse
merits.
Although he is reported to be a
blood thirsty outlaw, he has not
been manacled and locked up in
the Carlin Jail but has his liberty
in charge of Constable Happier.
Rather queer proceeding for
an officer to take with a hunted
OUTLAW.

MAKING SHOT

The tower process of making
shot was invented by William
Watts, plumber of Bristol, Eng
land. in 1869. His tower was
built" by saving a square hole
in the center of the various floors
of his house and locating a we'll
in the cellar, into which the
globules of molten lead dropped
and were instantly OILED and
hardened. Watts secured a patent
in 1882 and sold his London rights
in 1900 for S48,66
His tower is still in use,
although it has been heightened
by The addition of several stories.
The lead when molten is poured
into sieve-like receptacle at the
top of the tower. and these molten
drops. falling into the well, l2O
feet below, form the shot, which
are then passed through a POLISH
ing grader. They are then spilled
from h"pper on to an inclined
plane, the perfect shot running on
a second plane while the imperfect
drop through an opening between.
The shot pass over four series
Of planes, and only the perfect
reach the last plane.
A larger size than BIB cannot
be made by this process. The
larger sizes, including shrapnel,
are made by two different pro-
cesses. In the medium size a wire
of the proper material is fed into
machine which mashes it into a
ribbon shape and punches irregular
formed shot. Tie largest are
made by pouring the metal into
long bullet molds, which, in cool
ing, form irregular shot. The
various sizes are then placed, each
by itself, in gins, which are
revovlcd for six hours, when the
shot come out perfectly smooth
spheres. Boston Globe.

TEDDY PUTS HIS FOOT IN IT

Colonel Roosevelt's alibi would
not stand the test in any court of
justice. Edward II. Hartman is
dead. Cornelius N. Bliss is dead.
Sidney Webster is dead. But
public memory is not, and neither
is the record.
TIE feet aids that letters
trUm Edward H. Hartman to
Sidney Webster. made public
several years ago. when both these
men were living, and when Mr..
ROosevelt's denial would have
been more effective and timely,
had he then seen st to make it,
stated in effect that Hartman had
raised, in the last days of the
ca mpaign of 1904. at the sugges-
tion of Mr.. Roosevelt, an immense
campaign fund and that this money
was spent to swing enough votes
in New York State to insure
RooseeIt's election. The sinews
of war raised by Hartman am
ounted to S26O,OOO and it all came
from Wall street.
1t is disingeneous of MIR. Roose-
welt to now plead that this money
was raised and used IT, behalf of
the candidacy of Higgins, the
Republican candidate for Governor
who likewise happens to be dead
and therefore, like the others,
unable to enter into any contro-
versy with the Colonel over the
matter. All of Roosevelt's denials,
subterfuges and attempts to shift
responsibility to the shoulders OF
dead men cannot alter the undis-
puted facts that Mr.. Hartman
went TO the White House at the
urgent invitation of President
Roosevelt; that he returned TO
New York at once and raised an
additional campaign fund of 5000,
OO0in Wall street, and that this
money was used TO debauch the
electorate in the interest of the
Rpublican ticket to benefit Higgins
possibly, but in Roosevelt's
interest also, unquestionatly.
AS practical man" Mr.. Rose
welt should have seen that this late
da "eXplnatI on is not going to
help his case any. His friends see
it, if he does not, and the letter
wrung from the unwilling and
protesting Sh eldon. shifting the
load to the uncomplaining
shoulders Of the dead. is generally
regarded as an egreGious blunder,
chargeable only TO the wonderful
egotism Of the man most con-
ccrned and the desperation of his
candidacy for another presidential
nomination. - Star.

THUNDERSAORMS

Thunderstorms never occur in
the artic regions, and even the
north Of Scotland very seldom
suffers from such a visitation.
TIE nearer you get to the equator
the more frequent and severe are
the electric manifestations. In
parts of Central Africa the aver
age of thunderous days rises to
the astonishing total Of $50 per
annum.
Yet there are curious excep-
tions. In Java and Sumatra,
both intensely hot climates, there
are but ninety-two storms yearly.
and in Borneo only fifty.
The Gold coast of Africa has
only sixty n year, which is less
than occur in Florida, though the
latter country is outside the
tropics.
In Jamaica there is n thunder.
storm every day during the rainy
season, which lasts for five
months. These storms almost
always occur between midday ant
3 in the afternoon.
Perhaps the most astonishing
fact with regards TO thunder,
storms is that the island OF
Mauritius, which is only 500 mile,
east of Madagascar, has. on an
average, only one thunderstorm ir
eighty years. Yet in Madagascar
the lightning is more destructive
than anywhere else in the world

ADMIRAL EVANS

The winter night hung over
Arlington. The breeze stea ling
up the river as noiseess as were
the moonbeams that shimmered on
the white monuents of the cemetery
and in the shadow revealed the
outlines of the distant capital.
Still through the silence there
seemed to be stirring in the air
and upon the strained ear low
murmurings. We suspect the
murmurings were real; that had
the ears been sublimated they
would have heard that the news
had "piprced the dark cold ears of
DEATH" and the sleepers in that
hallowed ground were stirring and
saying:
Fighting Bob overwearied,
has folded his arms and is coming
to make his last encampment with
us, s,overborne by toll and battle and
disease.
Porter is here to welcome him.
so is many another sailor. so are
Sheridan and Cook and mighty
array of glorifed soldiers. and
his welcome mutt be royal. He
has wearied at last of both sea and
shore: he is coming to make his
home with US. How much he will
honor usl He has earned his rest.
For forty years he fought the
storms and the angry seas. and
every enemy of his country that
his guns could reach. He gave
his country's flag new glory each
year. Life on earth is but little
thing, but the pillow on which
honestly. earned fame sleeps is soft
as down. Hail we our great
admiral and welcome to his sleep.

WINTER BATH IN OIL TANK

Lew Ward, the master mechanic

Cident last Friday afternoon. a
wagon loaded with oil for fuel had
arrived, and no way had been
provided to unload il into the big
tank at the mill. There was a
place for a valve at the bottom Of
the tank on the wagon, but no
valve. In trying to fix the thing
So as to control the stream Of bulk
stuff. Mr.. Ward allowed plug to
get away from him. and the stream
of oil began pouring out of the
hole. He Immediately begun
trying TO stop the hole. and it was
necessary to get right irto the
middle of the stream of thick,
sticky, black oil. Lew did not
hesitate. but jumped right in and
in a few seconds had stopped the
flow. but when he got through he
was a sight TO behold. The dirty
oil had covered him from head to
foot, and clothes were somewhat
soilcd. 1t is safe to say that his
own mother would have failed to
recognize him had she been
present at the time he escaped
from the dcIugc. In fact. he was

ARTHUR GRISWOLD
SEVERELY HURT

A very sad accident occurred at
the ranch of Mr.. w. S. Griswold in
Ruby Valley yesterday. Arthur
Griswold, his son, was driving a
team loaded with hay for feeding
:attle, when a heavy gust of wind
overturned the wagon and the hay
rack struck him across the back.
He was suffering greatly when
picked up and it is feared that his
back is broken.
DR.. West was telephoned for
Yesterday and Mr.. Gedney took
him in his automobile as far as the
II ranch where he was met by Mr..
Gardner with a team who took him
the rest of the way. Today he
was taken to Wells and from there
he will be taken to hospital in
Salt Lake.
About two weeks ago. Arthur
left the Boiling hospital, where he
had undergone treatment for
assesses. He was not entirely
well, but was able to be about the
ranch. He is about 2l or 22 years
of age and has a wife and child.
The many friends of the family
most sincerely hope that Arthur's
injuries are not as severe as
reported and that he will speedily
recover.
