ELECTRIC CURRENT
In Wash Water Prevents the Fading
and Running of COlOrs.

The story OF the wonders and variable
powers of mans invisible servant"
Electricity, seems to be an interminable
serial always TO be continued"
A visit at the exhibit at Music Hall
this week supplies many chapters to the
story, but it is evident that many of
its most interesting features are still in
manuscript and many others still un-
written.
How many housewives know that
current of electricity applied to the water
in which the clothes are washed will eff
fectively prevent the fading and running
of colors? And yet this truth is being
demonstrated in many big laundries in
this country every day. Unfortunately
for the housewife, this method is not yet
applicable to the home washtub, but that
may come later, with the development
of present-day equipment.
This is feature of The Electric Pro-
cess which many laundries are now using
in their washrooms. By applying an
electric current, wash water of low
temperature can be used, and the boil
ing and steaming usually resorted to to
get the clothes clean becomes unneces-
sary 1t is this boiling process which in
tegrates the dyes, causing the colors to
leave the fabric or become blurred in
the texture, and the use of electricity
now prevents this.
The renovating influences of the cleo
trio current also seem to give new life
and freshness to dyes that have become
dull and lifeless after being washed by
the old methods In this respect, at least
the ''invisible servant" has visibly i'm
proved the appearance of colored clothes
that are washed by The Electric Process,
and laundrymen generally feel that one
of their most veXing problems has now
been definitely solved.

COLORADO COAL MINES
Are Merged in Giant Corporation
Through Gotham Bankers.

Denver Colo.-A merger of practically
all the coal mines of Colorado, excepting
those owned by the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company with capitalization of
$25,O00,OOO, has been arranged through
the efforts of Charles T. Brown, of the
New York banking house of Henry L.
Doherty & Co. Mr.. Brown said the
merger is practically assured.
1t is estimated that the annual bust
ness of the merged company would ap-
proXimate 100000 tons of coal month
ly, and that the earnings, exclusive of
interest on the bonds of the underlying
companies but including all other
charges, would be at least so cents
ton. 1t is asserted that by eliminating
in large measure the cost of admins
tration and selling, now prevalent, it will
be possible to recover lost territory for
the sales in Kansas and Nebraska, and
that in that section another 100000
tons can be sold annually at a profit of
30 cents ton.
Forty-one companies, with a total
bonded Indebtedness of $17,0000O0, are
included in the merger. These compa-
nies own $4,000 acres of land lease
@f,OuO llOIc anu operate scNSllly -llll &C
mines The machinery and equipment
are valued at $9,6O0,000. The aggregate
tonnage is estimated at 1,500, 100000, and
the annual production, as in the year Of
1914, at 5,0S5,000 tons.
OF the total capitalization $5,OOO,Oo0
will be in preferred stock. The $780,
100000 in common stock will go to the
owners in payment for their properties.
There will be fifteen directors, chosen
from the operators and "best business
men" of the State in equal proportion.
Control of the new corporation will be
vested in an Executive Committee of
from five to seven members, and there
will also be Finance Committee, which
will supervise all investments of the
company, so that none of the funds can
be invested in excess of 100000 with
out the approval of the Finance Com

DECRY MACHINE-MADE MEN

Washington, D. C.-The greatest
filled with "divine discomfort" and not
a machine, declared DR.. P. P. Claxton
United States commissioner of educa-
ton, in speech in this city. He said
he had no sympathy with any scheme or
philosophy OF education that has tend
cncy to make mere machines out OF hui
man beings or divide citizens OF this
country into peasant and other classes.
81 know of no reason" said the edit
Gator, why one class should have the
fullness of life and another class not
have. We must regard humanity in all
things. There is no relief by so-called
philanthropy. Each person living must
eat, wear clothes, have transportation,
hear music, read books and participate
in life. Today we are teaching things
