SHE DRANK RUM,
 THINKING TT COFFEE

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 9.-Mrs. Lizzie Col lins of No. 26S6 Clarke avenue rushed into the Laclede District police sta tion last night and feverishly demand ed to be locked up. Her only excuse was that several men were follow ing her"
 Policeman Burke and Crawford ac- companied the woman to her home where they found John o'Reilly and asked him what the trouble was.
 "Trouble!" exclaimed o'Reiily in surprise, q didn't know there was any. I'm here on a visit"
 Then o'Reilly took a good look at Mrs. Collins and burst forth into loud laughter. Pointing to the coffee pot he accused it of being the cause of all the excitement.
 Investigation developed the fact that O'Reilly, being fond of nip, and not knowing Mrs. Collins sentiments filled the pot with rum. He thought the pot would remain undisturbed un til morning, but that is where his plans went wrong.
 Mrs. Collins takes an evening mir of coffee. Last night she found the beverage exceptionally good and she took several. Then she headed fol the police station.

WILL BUILD A NEW
 FOUNDRY IN JUNEAU

A new foundry is to be established in Juneau within the next sixty days. The parties involved for certain busi- ness reasons do not wish to disclose their identity at the present time. but they are known to be experienced foundrymen
 The site has already been secured at an advantageous point. The neces- sary supplies for the construction of the plant and the machinery with which it is to be equipped have been ordered. When finished the new fOun- dry will be able to cast anything from an ornament fence to the heaviest stamp mill.
 The men going into this venture have investigated the field thoroughly and are satisfied that there is enough business already at hand to assure success.
 This new enterprise is of some inn portance to Juneau as it will not only furnish an addition to the pay rolls of the community but provide a means of keeping a great deal of money in circulation here that is at present sent abroad-beside all this the saw ing of time in the general repair work on vessels and mining machinery will be an important item.
 It is planned to have the buildings all up and the machinery installed during the month of March.
