going to press we have not heard
of his capture. The editor of the
paper is personally acquainted
with young Hertzog, and always
took him to be a fine young man.
How he got tangled up with
Jones is more than we can figure
out, but we understand Jones had
been hitting the booze rather
strenuously few days prior to
the shooting. and it might be the
result of little provocation. Paul
was the son-in-law of VIM. Hoeck-
endorf of this city, and had been
married but few months, which
adds sadness to the horrible affair.

German Infant Mortality

The latest official German stats
tics present highly satisfactory pic
ture of the progress achieved in tho
direction Of lessening infant mortal.
ity by means of the hygienic and san
itary improvements effected of late
years in the interest of public health.
The statistics in question, recently
published by the Imperial German
statistical department for the year
1912. show that the infant moltaFity
during that year in Germany was far
lower than has ever been previously
recorded The word infant is here
Used in the sense of all children I'M
der the age of r. months. Of infants
under this age there died during the
year 1912, in all. 275,571. Ten years
before the total amounted to $40, 799;
consequently, within one short decade,
the rate of infant mortality has baen
decreased to the extent OF almost
100000 children.> The most favorable
year in this respect was 1910, but
even then the amount reached moro
than 81 900. When we compare the
between the infants dying
before they reach the age of II
with the total number of
those born alive, we see how great is
the progress that has of late been
made.-Continental correspondence

Weeds Have Their Uses

Coal keeps getting dearer in all civ.
ilized countries, and the search for
possible substitutes for coal is getting
very keen. The latest idea is the
original one Of skimming the weed off
of the famous Sargasso, sea and max.
ing it into blocks Of fuel 3
The Sargasso sea is a great tract Of
the Atlantic lying some hundreds of
miles south of the steamer routes
from Britain to the states. A great
patch of ocean there about twice the
area Of the United Kingdom, looks
just Ikea vast green meadow.
The explanation is that it is covered
to a thickness of three or four feet
with a weed called ''sargasso." In
the center of the sea, there Is a tract
the size of Ireland, where the weed is
even thicker. and stands several feet
out Of tn water. In many places the
weed covers derelict ships which have
got caught. Steamers carefully avoid
the Sargasso sea owing to their
screws getting fouled. 49,. .-. .-a
The idea has been suggested Of rak-
ing the Sargasso sea to make 1t open
for navigation, but it would probably
fill up again. This fact will make 1t
a permanent supply of fuel If the new
idea catches on. The weed is to be
automatically compressed and cut into
blocks. These blocks have already
