Chicago Court Declares Bacon
Wrote ShakeSpearean Dramas

given a cipher which Bacon devised
in his early youth when in Paris,
called the bilateral cipher: that the
witness Elizabeth Wells Gallup has
applied that cipher according to the
directions left by Francis Bacon and
has found that the name and char
acter of Shakespeare were used as a
mask by Francis Bacon to publish
philosophical facts, stories and state
ments contributing to the literary
renaissance in England, which has
been the glory of the world.
THE court further finds that the
claim of the friends of Francis Ba-
con, that he is the author of said
works of Shakespeare, and the facts
and circumstances in the real hiblio-
graphy Of the controversy over the
question of authority and the proofs
submitted herein, convinced the
court that Francis Bacon is the
author"
Mr.. Selig alleged that the publica-
tion of the book tending to prove
that Bacon wrote the Shakespeare
plays would injure him in his project
of making pictures of plays common
ly attributed to Shakespeare.

FORMER LAKELAND MANS
SUCCESS IN CLEARWATER

That was a distinct compliment
which came to A. J. Moore when,
during the citizens mass meeting a
few nights ago, Mayor Jeffords, who
was presiding, called Mr.. Mclean to
the chair, and, taking the floor,
placed Mr.. Moore in nomination as a
candidate for alderman. Mr.. Moore
was detained by important business
matters and was not present at the
meeting. He was not seeking nomi-
nation and was not aware he had
been selected as one of the candi-
dates until after the meeting ad-
journed. Naturally he was grateful
and expressed appreciation, but said
that it would be impossible for him
to serve in the event of election
The business of the Cut Price Store
of which Mr.. Moore is proprietor,
has grown to be SO large that it's
management demands all his time,
and he feels that he would not be
able to do justice to the duties of
the Office of city councilman. He
has therefore requested that his
name be omitted from the list to be
certified to the city council.
Mr.. Moore's friends, while re-
joicing in his business success, re-
greet that he will not be a candidate
| They realize that should he have con
sented to become candidate his
election would have been assured as
everyone feels that he would max,
an excellent member of the cit,
council, and there will be General re
%ret when it is known that he hal
requested the withdrawal of hi

Miami, April 27.-Tentative plans
for the new 100000 building for
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion are being drawn by the general
secretary, VIM. S: Frost, and as soon
as the title to the property selected
by the committee for the building
site has been secured these sketches
will be turned over to an architect
to be worked out ready for the bid
ders on the structure. Abstractors
are now working on the title to the
building site, and Mr.. Frost said to-
day that they believe they will have
this cleared within two more days.
The site selected is at the corner Of
Eleventh street and Avenue A.
The Y. NJ. C.. A. building will
probably be six story structure and
will cover nearly the ntire lot. Spac-
ious porches will be built on two
sides of the building, there will be a
large swimming pool, gymnasium
and a number of rooms to be rented
to members of the association.
Pledges made to the fund are be-
ing promptly paid. said the secre-
tary.

ADVENTURE AS BALLOON SAILS

Paris, April 27.-One of the most
thrilling adventures of this war was
the escape from capture or death of
young lieutenant who, while in
captive balloon, above the roar of
the battle of Verdun, suddenly re-
allied that the steel hawser connect
ing him with the earth had been sew
cred by a SHE'LL and that he was
drifting towards the enemy's lines.
Thousands of anxious eyes were di-
rected towards the little speck,
which grew fainter and fainter as
the southerly wind waited it to-
wards the German positions. Four
aeroplanes at once started in the
vain hope of rendering assistance,
but every one felt that the lieuten-
ant was doomed
Minutes passed The balloon kept
rising, and only the car could now
be discerned. The soldiers forgot to
fire, the suspense was SO terrible.
Then suddenly tiny grayish speck
was seen to part from the balloon,
which shot up 1000 feet, but instead
of falling to earth the speck seemed
to be pulled up sharp in mid-air. AT

Chicago, ILL.,, April 27.-Francis
Bacon was declared to be the author
of the works of William Shakes
peare in a decision rendered in an
injunction suit today by judge Rich
ard S. Tuthill in the circuit court.
The decision dissolved an injunction
issued on the petition of William y.
Selig, motion picture manufacturer,
to restrain Geo. Fabyan, publisher,
and others from completing publica-
ton of books supporting the Bacon
ian theory. The court held that the
name of Shakespeare had been used
merely as a disguise.
THE claim of friends of Francis
Bacon" the court said, that he is
the author of the works of Shake
speare, and the facts and circum-
stances in the vast bibiology of the
controversy over the question and
proofs submitted herein convinces
the Court that Francis Bacon is the
author"
Julia Arthur, the actress, who has
a leading role in some of the plays
to have been produced, when inform
ed of the courts ruling, said:
Pooh"
Judge Tuthill, in his decision,
said:
That William Shakespeare was
born April %, 1864; that he went to
London about 1886 or 1887; that
for time thereafter he made his
living working for Burbage; that he
later became an actor in Burbage's
theater and in travelling theatrical
companies; that he retired about
1909 or 1910 to live in Stratfordon-
Avon, where he engaged in business
to the time of his death on April %,
1916, and that Shakespeare was not
an educated man, are allegations
which the court finds true
"The court further finds that
Francis Bacon was born January 26,
1850; that he was educated not only
in English, but in French, Latin,
Italian, German, and had a general
education equal to or superior to any
one of his age; that he was the COM
piler of book of 1,500 aXioms and
phrases selected from the greatest
authors and books of all time; that
in his youth literary people We're
frowned upon in England, but in
Paris litrary people were in favor of
the reigning powers and literature
was having renaissance. Bacon
went to Paris in his early youth
and spent several years in this
atmosphere.
"The court takes judicial notice
of historical facts and facts well
known, and finds that there has been
for sixty years a controversy over

Future Sources.
! Experimental work on the produc-
tion of potash salts from different
sources was active during the year,
and in places this activity has been
succeeded by the construction of
plants. Operations are in progress at
Searles Lake and at Keller, on the
shores of Owens lake, California. 1t
is reported that one company is erect
ing plant near Great Salt Lake and
that another will soon be started at
the south end of the lake. The by.

Potash PRODUCED IN
UNITED STATES
The Product for 1915 Was Valued
at $35o,0oO.

Potash salts were produced in the
United States in 1915 to the value Of
$4,000, according to the United
States geological survey. Though
/ this figure is of interest as showing
small beginning in the domestic pot
ash industry, it becomes of little i'm
portance if the total neds of the coun.
try are consumed in less than a week
under normal conditions.
Reduced Imports.
The imports of refined potash salts
' in 1915 were 766,141 long tons, or
! slightly more than rs per cent. of
, those in 1918, the latest normal year
of importation. Imports of the potash
fertilizers, kainit, manure salts, and
double manure salts, amounted to 90
APT long tons, or about three per
cent. of those in 1913. Taking all the
potash salts together. the imports in
, 1915 were about one-tenth of those
under normal conditions.
Progress In Domestic Industry.
| In the survey report on the subject,
w. c. Phalen states that potash was
recovered within the United States as
"a by-product from the manufacture Of
Portland cement at Riverside. Cal.

Potassium sulphate from alunite
was first placed on the market late in
October, 1915, by the Mineral Prod
,ucts corporation, at Marysvale, Utah.
The production has not been large so
far, owing to the incidents connected
with pioneer enterprise of this
character Though certain foreign de-
posits of alunite have been worked for

yield of potash salts as such from
alunite The product is of high grade.
The plant of the Potash Products
company, of Omaha, Nebr, was es-
tablished in the spring of 1915 at
Holland, near Alliance, in the north
western part of the state. During
about half of the year the company
obtained potash salts from the brine
of an alkaline lake in this region.
In addition to output from the
lnbove sources, potash was marketed
i'm 1915 from kelp obtained along the
Pacific coast.
