sILVERToN WINS TWO.

SilvertOn baseball fans had the pleas.
ure of seeing the local team win two
Nccessive victories Saturday and Sun
day and each game was interesting
from start to finish.
Saturday the local boys met the ia
nous Indian team from Chcmawa on
the Davenport grounds in this city and
the game resulted in favor of Silverton
by Il score Of 9 to /. The Silverton
team in this battle displayed unusual
activity and had the best of the game
from start to its cOnsummation. The
boys have been anticipating Il victory
in the Chemawn game ever since it
was arranged and were not disappoint-
ed in the least. They were in their
best when the game was called and
played one Of the most credi5able and
interesting games that has ever been
witnessed in Silverton.
Sunday Silverton defeated the Stay
ton team by score of II to l. This
was also n good game, but it did not
require such an effort as did the Sat.
ugday game, nor was it as interesting.
Both games were witnessed by large
crewds of people. The attendance Sat.
ufday was better than Mt the Sunday

Automatic Fire Doors.

The construction of a fire door and its installation may be standard in every way, hut for the door to be of service it must be closed at the time of fire. As employees of plant can not always be depended upon to close the doors that may be left open during the operation of the plant, because of panic or other reasons. fire doors should be either self closing or auto matic. A self closing door is one which closes by itself as soon as d person has passed through. This door is normally always closed and never should be allowed to be blocked open. The automatic type is held open by means of q weight or catch. which has connected with it series of fuslbe links. In case of fire the solder on one or more of the fuSibe links melts from the heat. releases the weight or catch and the door closes automatic. ally.

THE TRAcKLESS TROLLEY.
Advantages It Possesses Over Other
 Means of Transportation.

Advantages It Possesses Over Othsr
 Means Of Transportation.
 Rail;ess electric traction has attract d much attention in England lately. Several short transportation lines have been built on that principle. and some thirty similar schemes are now under consideration in various semirural re- gions. The .'trackless trolley" used at Leeds and Bradford consists of a "bus" similar to the ordinary gasoline stage, except that Its motive power is electricity ootulned through trolley from an overhead wire. It is said to be much cheaper to operate than gaso- line bus and where traffic is light has, of course, a similar advantage over the regular train running on tracks be- cause of lower first cost, the entire ex- pense of a special roadbed being elimi- mated.
 The cost of putting up the trolley wires at Leeds was but S6,22o per mile. The forty horsepower buses cost S3,50O. and 1t has been found by experience that the complete cost of operation per mile varies from II to 13 cents. In Leeds the fare is cents for four mile journey.
 R. E. Neale. who describes the Leeds and Bradford installations in tine Engi- neering Magazine. says that the track less trolley can make money even where the traffic is thin Ut Il fare of from 1 to 1la cents per mile. Appar- ently the trolley bus cannot compete with the tram where traffic is heavy. but 1t has, according to Mr. Neale. a distinct field of its own in suburban regions and at resorts where heavy de- mands at one season are followed by no passengers at all during the remain der of the year. Mir. Neale's figures in- dicate that it Is cheaper to operate than the gasoline stage by from one half n cent to a cent per passenger mile.

USES OF Fl.U0RsPAy,.
Employed In Gassmaking and For
 Open Hearth Steel


 Last year the total quantity of do- nestle tiuorspar reported to the United States geological survey as marketed in the United States was SI.04S short tons. valued at S611.44I. compared with 69, ,427 short tons. valued at $43O.- 196. in 1910. an increase in quantity of 17.621 short tons and in value of $1S1,251
 Fluorspar Is found in crystals. gen erally cubical. in color ranging from a clear. slightly bluish or green glass like tint through various other brilliant colors to dark purple. although much of 1t Is white and opaque. Associated with other minerals. fluorspar has d broad distribution. but deposits of Workab be size are not abundant. the de- pssts thus far exploited in the United States being found only in the states of Arizona. New Mexico. Colorado. Illinois. Kentucky, Tennessee and New Hampshire.
 Fluorspar is used in the manufacture of glass and of enameled and sanitary ware. the eiectrolytic refining of anti mony and lead. the production of aluminium and in the iron and steel industries, where 1t is used as Aux In blast furnaces and in gasic open hearth steel furnaces. Ii Is estimated that about so per cent of the American f1uorspar output. mainly in the form of gravel spar. is consumed in the manu- facture of basic open hearth steel. The use of tiuorspar is increasing in practically all these industries.

Germany's View Of American Sentiment


The Germans have made so many mistakes in

reading public sentiment in various countries
ono would think they would he little slow
70 express themselves On sentiment in this coun-
try.

statesmen Of Germany, speaking of the note
sent TO Germany demanding that it be care
full not to take the lives OF Americans in what
Germany calls war zone" slurs at the Amer
lean government and expresses doubt whether
It will receive the support OF this country IN
'ts attitude toward Germany in this crisis. He
says the German government Is supported by
every German but he doubts that the same can
be said of government over here.
The Germans ought not to make any mistake
on this score. Evidently because three or four
members of Congress who are Germans, and a
coterie of Germans in New York and other
cities who have been naturazed have been
abusing the Administration. the German gov
eminent thinks If crisis there would he
