MAN HIGHER UP
President of the Wooden Mill
Trust Is Arrested.
Is Charged With Conspiracy to
Distribute Dynamite.

Boston, Aug. 30.-President William
NJ. Wood of the American Wooden
company was arrested today on an in :
dictment warrant charging him with
conspiring to distribute dynamite in
Lawrence during the general strike
thee last winter.
President Wood surrendered himself
to the authorities and was accompan-
led by counsel.
Mr.. Wood furnished cash bail of
$4,000. 1t is understood he will be
formally arraigned in the superior
court next Tuesday. Mr.. Wood is one
of the best known textile men in the
country and the American WOODEN
company which bore the brunt of the
great Lawrence strike from January
IL until March II, controls 3S manu-
featuring plants in New England and
New York state. 1t has a capacity OF
100000 and employees $4,000 oper-
atives when all the machinery is in
motion. About 1900 persons are on
the pay rolls of the companies mills
in Lawrence.
81 cannot conceive what informa-
ton could have been presented to the
jurors which in any way connected me
with the socalled dynamite plot" said
Mr.. Wood. Il certainly had no con-
nection with it and this fact will be
fully established at the proper time
to the satisfaction of the public and
the district attorney. Beyond this L
have nothing to say.
Dennis Collins, of Cam bridge, VINO
was indicted yesterday and arrested On
charge of unlawfully having placed
dynamite in a railroad train for trans
portation, is in Jail in default of $500
bail for a hearing next Tuesday The
name of a third man indicted has not
been announced.
The discovery of dynamite in a
Syrian lodging house, cobbler's shop
and a cemetery in Lawrence last jan
uary while the textile strike was at its
height, caused sensation.
The strike leaders denied that they
had any information of using an ex-
plosive to further their plans and
charged that the dynamite had been
planted for the purpose of discredit-
ing the labor unions.
Soon afterwards John J. Breen, a
Lawrence undertaken, was arrested or
| a charge of having unlawfully placed
| the dynamite in the places where it was
found. Breen was found guilty and
| fined $500 No further court action was
taken in the case until the Suffolk coun.
| t. proceedings were started this week.

THE BANNER COUNTY.
Over $4,000 Expended In State Work
In Franklin County In 1911.

Enosburg Falls, Jan. 23.-In the
amount of money expended in state
road work in the state Of Vermont in
the year 1911, il is believed that Frank

Of work done in the county the past sea-

The total amount expended in state
work in Franklin county in 1911 was
$40, 1928, which included the amounts
raised by the several towns to secure
state aid, the amount contributed by
the state. together with the per cent
state highway tax OF the different towns.
Franklin county led the state in the
amount of money per town that was
voted for state road work in 1911. There
vas only one town, Fletcher, that did
not vote an extra sum, but in this
town, under orders from the selectmen,
there was S462.77 expended in addition
to the state 5 per cent. tax.
There were, not including st. Adams

A Simple eet.rioh-quiok Scheme.

Take 100000 cats and get rich
quick. This is the advice of the Liberte
Of Paris to its readers. The prescrip-
ton is quite simple. A million cats
will supply you with 100000 kittens
a year. The skins are worth little
over % cents each, so there you have
n daily gross revenue of about $4,000.
To skin the cats you will have TO EN-
ploy 100 men. who will charge you 81
per fifty cats. Your net revenue Will
thus be reduced to about $4,000 day.
1t should cost you nothing to feed your
cats. Start rattery. Rats breed four
times as fast as cats, so the cats can
have a daily diet of four rats apiece,
which is ample. To feed the rats is
perfectly simple. Give them the skin.
ned cats. One cat will be ample for
four rats. The scheme works out sim.
ply and automatically. The cats eat
the rats, the rats eat the cats, and you
have the skins.

Mysterious Currents, the Secrets Of
Which No One Has Solved.
There are as many vagaries in the
waters as in the winds, Why, for in
stance, should great ocean currents
send their warm waters across the
wide Pacific and Atlantic? Other and
equally mysterious currents exist in
well nigh all parts of the world.
1t is on record that the sea has run
for weeks out of the Java sea, through
the strait Of Sunda and thence back
again for a Ike period without any
perceptible rise and fall during those
times.
Then there is the equatorial current
that flows into the Caribbean sea. the
ever flowing current to the eastward
around Cape Horn. the cold stream
flowing from the Icy regions of the
north past Newfoundland and Nova
Scotia and along the American coast
to the extreme end of Florida, the
continual current running with a We
locity OF from four TO FIVE knots an
hour through the strait of Gibraltar
into the Mediterranean sea, the swift
current running across the rocks and
shoals off the end Of Billion island,
which apparently starts from nowhere
apd ends somewhere in the vicinity of
the same place, and the current which,
starting halfway up the China sea,
runs from two TO three knots al hcrr
to the northeast and finally ends alb
ruptly off the north end OF Luzon-
Then we have those tidal vagnries
known the world over as bores. Those
that run up the Hugh and Irawadi
rivers, from side to side, till they reach
their limit. often tearing the ships
from their anchorage, originate nobody

FRENCH AND GERMAN COL0RS
Supposed Origin of the TrieoIor and

For FIVE centuries black and white
have been the HohenzoIern colors, and
the first verse of the German war song.
"Ich bin Elm preusse." is:
am a Prussian Know ye not my ban

Before me floats my flag OF black and
white!

So say these colors floating in your

which was the ensign of the Hanseatic
league. This flag came into being
when the North German Confederacy
was established. Nov. %, 1857. at the
close of the Austro-Prussian war. The
red and white represent the CONNER
cial prosperity Of the nation. while the
black and white symbolic the strong
arm of the state prepared to protest
and foster 1t.
Nowhere have historical events caus-
ed so much change in the standards
and national ensigns Of country as in
France The orifamme and the chape
de ST. Martin were succeeded at the
end of the sixteenth century. when
Henry Ill, the last of the house Of
yalois. came to the throne, by the
white standard powdered feur-de-lis.
That in turn gave place to the famous
tricoIor which was introduced at the
time of the revolution, but the origin
of that dag and its colors is disputed
question. Some maintain that the in
tention was to combine In the flag the
blue of the chape de st. Martin, the
red of the orifiamme and the white flag
of the Bourbons. BY others the colors
are said to be those of the city of Paris
Yet again other authorities assert that
the flag is copied from the shield of
the Orleans family as 1t appeared after
Philippe Egalite had knocked off the
