HinkIe Guys Address.
Brick and brick making are as old
as history. We read that burned
brick were used in building the tower
of Babel The walls and various other
buildings of ancient Babylon were
formed the chief occupation of the
Israelites during their bondage in
Egypt.
Brick making today. as we know it
in this country. includes all burned
clay products such as common brick,
paving brick, and blocks, face bricks.
drain tile. sewer pipe. terra Gotta,
building tile, fire brick and pottery.
There are two methods of brick
making in use today-the dry pressed
system and the stiff mud system. Ex-
cepting in some instances a few bricks
are still made by the old hand process
We use the stiff mud system and fully
90 per cent of the brick in America
today are made by this process.
Our brick plant west of the city
has been in operation twenty-seven
years and is the second oldest plant
west of the Mississippi river. We have
made brick there every year since the
plant was built. We now are devoting
our efforts to the manufacture of
common building brick, face brick and
paving blocks for building work
Output 2O0.OOO,OOO.
During the last twenty-seven years
We have manufactured more than
200. 1000 600 brick and a majority of
them have been used in this city The
plant originally was built to manufac-
tTre paving brick and there now are
more than 100. 10000 of these bricks
in Topeka's streets.
The first brick paving in Topeka
was laid on Third street from Jackson
to Topeka avenue and on Topeka ave-
nue. from Third street to Sixth avenue.

ICE BLOWS AND BREAKS
 WINDOWS IN JUNEAU
Two Fishing Boats Narrowly Escape Tn Storm and One Had to Play
 Hot Water on the Ice.

People doubted the Gateway cable from Juneau of some days ago that the temperature ther went as low 4S sixteen below but this news was con firmed when the Farragut arrived to- day. While the Farragut was at the capital that was the temperature. The wind blew so fiercely through the streets of Juneau that it carried clouds of ice particles with it and smashed some of the windows with the frozen bullets. During that storm two large fishing boats entered Yakutat in a disabled condition from ice and wind. One was an English trawler. They had terrible time reaching port and one was in such danger of capsizing from the weight of ice on her that hot water had Co be played on it to get it off.
