$4,000 IS GIVEN To
PATRIOTS DAUGHTER
FATHER SANK OWN BOAT DUR
ING WAR-COURT ALLOWS
CLAIM.

Mrs. Harry Hendricks Gill OF 1925
st. Louis avenue received word from
the United States Court Of Claims of
Washington that her claim in behalf
of her ward and niece, Helen Pagan,
10 years old, had been upheld. She
has been allowed a reimbursement OF
$4,000.
The child is the granddaughter
of Capt. Samuel Houston, who, 1t Is
held, deliberately sank his river
steamer, William Henry, at loss to
himself, in order to prevent a cargo
of ammunition and supplies for the
Confederate army from getting into
the enemies hands. The steamer
had been pressed into the Confeder-
ate service. Mrs. Gill asked for S14,-
900.
According to Mrs. Gill's contention
Capt. Houston, who was reputed to
be a descendant of the Sam Houston
of Texas fame, and who was an inti-
mate friend of Mark Twain, was the
owner of a river steamer, said to
have been worth $4,000, operating
in the lower Mississippi River trade.
Although he lived in Little Rock,
Ark, he was of strong Union lean
ings. Shortly after the outbreak of
the civil war, a body of Confederate
soldiers captured the boat at Little
Rock, and after pressing it into SER
vice, loaded il with 100 tons of am
munition, 60 tons of harness, wagons
and supplies, and directed Houston
to ship them to Fort Smith, Ark.
In order to prevent the supplies
reaching the Confederate army,
Houston ran the boat on a snag at
Knox Bend, ten miles below Van
Buren,. He was captured and tried
for treason. He was found guilty
and imprisoned. Later he escaped
and served the remainder of the war
as a captain and pilot on Union gun
boats.
He was killed later in the Brooks
Baxter feud in Arkansas. His widow,
Mrs. Missouri Houston, later married
]. c. Hendricks, who at one time was
member of the Confederate army,
and who now lives at the st. Louis
avenue address.
Hendricks presented the claim to
the different congresses, from the
Fortieth to the Forty-fifth, with no
success. Mrs. Gill presented it to the
Fiftieth Congress more than twenty
five years ago, and the final report
was filed only a week ago.
Little Helen clapped her hands
joyfully when she heard the news
last night. "Now l can buy an auto
mobile and house for aunty. You see,
we don't own the property here" she
explained to Globe-Democrat re-
porter, but now we can own house
all our own. Globe Democrat.

OIL FROM FORESTS
A USEFUL PRODUCT
SPRUCE AND HEMLOCK NEEDLES
FURNISH ELEMENT FOR
SHOE BLACKING.

Washington. June 10.-Shoe black
ing owes its peculiar aromatic odor,
family suggestive of the deep woods
where spruce or hemlock needles pad
the ground, to an oil which is manu-
featured from these same kinds OF
needles, according to the Forest Ser
vice. Similar oils are obtained from
the foliage and small twigs of various
cone-bearing trees, and find use for
a number of purposes. In Europe
the finer OF these oils are used ex-
clusively as perfume in soap. They
are common components of liniments
and other medicinal preparations.
Cedar oil is chiefly used in the prep
aration of insecticides and, to some
extent, in making liniment.
Investigations of the yield and the
value OF the oil obtainable from some
of the southern and western trees
have been made by the Forest Ser
vice, partly with a view to the poss-
ible utilization of waste material left
after numbering in the National for
ests. In these investigations long leaf
and western yellow pine leaves pro-
duced the most promising results,
hut the needle oils obtained from
these pines did not surpass the al
ready firmly established spruce and
hemlock oils. The large quantities
of needles and twigs on forest ser
vice time sale areas are not only
sheer waste, but also form a special
fire hazard. An increased market
for leaf oil would make possible the
utilization OF some of this waste ma
terial.
Industry Old One.
The industry, though small, is
fairly old in the United States. The
value OF the annual production of
needle oil is about $4,000. Black
and white spruce and eastern hem
lock produce similar oils, 10000 to
$4,000 pounds annually, worth 45 to
60 cents a pound. Red cedar pro-
duces $4,000 to 5000 pounds of oil,
having the same value pound as the
spruce and hemlock oil. A few other
species furnish the rest OF the conf
fer-leaf oil produced in the United
States.
Besides the home product, small
quantities of needle oils are imported
from Europe. One of these. silver
fir oil. brings 81 a pound. In most
cases these oils have pleasant odor.
A few are disagreeable when first
first distilled, but become pleasant
with age.
The greater portion OF the oil pro-
duced in the United States is dis
titled by small farmers in New Eng
land during the winter months when
farm work is slack. In 1912 a Seat
tie firm began the distillation of leaf
oil from Western red cedar on a large
scale. but found that at the going
market value of 40 cents pound the
oil scarcely repaid the cost of pro-
duction. 1t was chiefly used in
manufacturing 30 per cent of cedar
oil and 65 per cent of an absorbent
made from the finely ground shells
of peach pits. Four dollars and a
half ton. depending on the oil con-
tent, was paid for the leaves and
twigs.
A firm at Grants Pass. Ore, has
patents covering methods and ap-
paratus for utilizing Western yellow
pine needles in the production of
