ALLOY DISCOVEREDBY
NOTED INVENTOR IS:
HARDER THAN STEEL
Is Known as StelIite and is
Used IN Manufacturing
Fine Cutlery.

"a few years ago an alloy was dis
covered by Eiwocd Haynes, inventor
of the gasoline automobile, which pos
sesses unique and characteristic prop
critics. states c. b. Cuppert, Of CupT
pert Brothers, distributors In this ter
ritofy for the Haynes, Americas first
car. In strength 1t stands close to
steel. while in It's resistance to the
atmospheric influences and acils 1t re-
senbles the so-called noble metals.
This alloy was christened steliite by
Mr.. Haynes, the name being derived
from the Latin word, Stella, meaning
star because the alloy when oncc. poll
ished, always shines
The alloy, stellite, always contains
two metals. namely cobalt and chrom-
ium. When these metals are mixed
in certain proportions the alloy can
be forged Into bars and sheets This
bindery ailoyris an IDEAL material for
line cutlery, particularly table knives
and fruit knives. To harden the alloy
other metals are introduced, WHICH in
come cases render itfsc hard that II

likewise scratch any. steel vet made.
The alloy has, perhaps, It's most
Characteristic advantage when used in
the place OF steel as a lathe tool for
turning iron steel and other Emetals.
A series pr tests were made 10 which
stellite showed an advantage OF from
20 per cent to more than 100 per
cent over high speed steel, Ina test

Haynes Automobile Company. Kokomo,

Present Plan. Of Development
Involves Expenditure of
$4,000 90.

T. A !
One estimate places the amount Of
new capital to be spent in the devel-
opment Of the properties OF the Con-
solidation Coal Company, OF mines
along the West Virginia branch Of
the Western Maryland railway and
along the Baltimore and Ohio and
other branch lines, at $17,00O.0O0. To
the properties OF the Consolidation
Coal Company and to those Of the
companies owning mines along the
Western Maryland railway In West
Virginia will be added enormous oil,
gas and coal fields owned for sever
al years by the Standard Oil interests,
which, have acquired q substantial
foothold in the. Consolidation cons
paily. 1t Is even said that the Stan
dard Oil interests, including John d,
Rockefeller, are In control OF that
property. X 81
Among the new enterprises In con-
temptation is the building OF Several
branch roads from the main line OF
the Western Maryland into more re-
mote fields, where new mines will be
opened and developed. ;. There has been
some uneasiness among holders loi
Baltimore and Ohio securities on the
ground that coal traffic, which fur.
rlishes the bulk Of business of the
company, will be diverted from iii
lines to those Of the western Mary.
land Railway Company, which will be
30 vastly improved BY low grade
routes that accommodation of the
heavy traffic will be forthcoming
This apprehension on the part. OF the
friends Of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company disappears on re-
calling the fact that the railroad com.
pany formerly owned the Consolida.
tion company, whose shares were dis
posed of under decision Of the Dui,
ed States supreme court, which for.
bids railroad companies from owning

importance of Work.

A negative life is wicked life Someone has said mo angel ever ap- peared to a man who was not at work" You cannot make man good by keeping him idle. "I must be about my Fathers business" said Christ iL the temple. That Is the gospel of ev- cry man who is loyal to his own soul, Is the comment of the Ohio State Jouznal. There is no excuse for idle ness. Work, like virtue, religion, faith, is from witl!n.. The impulse toward the right is what keeps man at work. and if he is not at work he lacks the impulse. His religion is too weak to exert itself. A positive life is the only true life. Nor Is mere eltrufsm the only form of work. It is as much @ mans duty to help himself as it is to help others, so that help is upbuilding. which IS the very condition of ones being benefit to others. A man who loves roses, sunsets, stars, creeks, trees, birds, Is friend of humanity. Loving Gods beautiful world includes man, or it is false love. Not to love these creations of goodness and grace denotes a negative life that Is positively wicked.

support of those institutions. l am of the opinion that it will require the combined efforts of the friends of all the state educational institutions to secure the passage of any such law either by vote of the people or by the legislature, and that any institution or set of institutions which attempts to secure the passage of such law without including all the state educa- tional institutions will fail. In my judgment additional strength would be added to the movement by includ- ing not only the divisions of the uni versity at Fayetteville, the four dis trict agricultural schools, and the state normal, but also the medical school at Little Rock and the branch normal at Pine Bluff. This is mat ter which l believe should receive the serious consideration of your board at this time."

LIQUOR DEALERS
 TALK PROHIBITION

Cincinnati, O., June S-The Nation al Wholesale Liquor Dealers asso-
 ciatioF met here in annual conven- tion today. Tha sessions will extend
 over three days. Among the prlnci- 1 pal speakers will be John c. Roth, a well known hotel man of Chicago, chairman of the special committee to investigate the question of the na- ] tional prohibition appointed by the
 National Hotel Protective Associa- tion. MT. Ro:n has devoted much time and efforts toward securing of not only statistics, but actual facts and figures as applied to the, ques- ton of nation prohibition These he will present to the meeting.
 A discussion of prohibition will be conducted by recognized leaders who will present facts obtained from au- thoritative sources. From the View
 point of the National Wholesale Li- quor Dealers ass ociation so many garbled accounts and fanatical hys- teria hove been presented under the guise of news that it has been de- finitely determined that the oher side
 of the prohibition question should be
 clearly and accurately presented at
 the convention. The real results of
 prohibition in Russia, prohibition az
 itation in England as a measure and
 many other subjects of equal news
 interest will be taken up for special
 special consideration. No effort will
 be spared to make this convention
 the most instructive as well as en-
 joyable in the history of the organiz-
 atiOn.
