Gun That Shoots OIL.

Vice Admiral Guimaraes Of the Bra.
lillian navy has invented for pouring
oil upon the water In storms method
that Is a notable advance upon the
methods hitherto in use. The efficacy
Of a thin film Of oil In breaking the
force of waves has been well-known
ever since Admiral CLIQUE Of the French
army announced 1t to the Academic
des Sciences in 1887.
The multitude Of torpedo boats, mo-
tor boats, trawlers and other small
craft with which the entente allies are
patrollng their coasts and watching for
enemy submarines has made 1t more
than ever necessary to improve the
methods Of spreading the oil.
Admiral Guimaraes has devised a
small cannon that can be moved about
easily and installed anywhere on q
ship. This fires a projectile which Is
nothing but glass bottle nine inches
long and nearly three inches In diane
ter, filed with sawdust soaked In AMI.
NAL or vegetable oil-fsh oil Is the
best. This is shot from the cannon by
a charge Of about an ounce and half
OF powder. 1t can be aimed with great
precision to fall Just where It will %
the most good.

Spanish matrons have expressed

Throughout Hungary. outside Buda-
pest. baths are unknown In hotels or
in castles Of the nobility. Most New
Workers recall that an heiress Of one Of
8 New York's wealthiest families-the
yanderbilts married Hungarian
count, and when she reached the AM
cestral castle, which her family's
American money was expected to re-
store, sought in vain for any means OF
taking bath.
My memory Of London hotels goes
back to 1875, when there was not
single bath tub in any hotel in that
city. A tin pan and bucket OF warm
water was the only "tub"-and you
were lucky to get that.
And In that same period. IN New
York city the Metropolitan and St
Nicholas hotels, supposed to be models
of excellence, were totally wanting IN
bathrooms.
Admittedly, 1t is as difficult to imag-
Inc life without motor cars as without
bathtubs; but the former are less
than twenty-year-old necessity, while
the bath was an institution long be-
fore the times Of the Roman emperors.

HAM HISTORIC FRENCH TOWN
Il Was Here That Louis Napoleon
6onaparte Was Imprisoned Be-
fore His Rise to Power.

Strange emotions must have over
come some of the older French soldiers
as they hurried through the town Oh
Ham upon the heels Of fleeing Ger
mans.
1t was in the old fortress at Ham
that Frances last emperor was pris-
oner for many years. observes Girard
in the Philadelphia Ledger. After Ma
poleon's downfall at Waterloo a Bona
parte was as popular with the succeed
Ing French kings as Jim the Penman
with bank presidents.
So Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, heir
to the Little Corporal's dynasty, was
first banished and then shut up at
Ham. He escaped from that place aft
er fixing up dummy In his bed to fool
the attendants and putting on the
clothes of a carpenter.
He walked through the prison gates
with a piece of timber on his shoulder,
went to Paris, was elected president,
made himself emperor and was snuffed
out finally at Sedan.
It was at Ham that Napoleon III
found himself another Man Of Des-
tiny. And for q couple Of decades 1t
seemed as If he were.

Charles Cook and Fremont Bellin-

who were arrested last week. will
plead guilty i'm circuit court on Fri
day of this week and receive their
sentences. These two young men and
Frank Purdy were arrested last week,
charged with stealing seven hays of
beans and fu" robe frori Edward
Struble, who resides five miles west
Of Ithaca. According to tho story told
by the boys, Floyd Strube, "A farmer
residing near Mt. Pleasant, brother
of Edward, furnished the automobile
and directed these three young men to
his brothers farm, and arranged with
them that he would sell the beans and
divide the proceeds with them This
| arrangement was carried out and it
also appears that beans and other
| property have been stolen by the
same gang in both Gratiot and Isa-
bella counties. Floyd Struble and
Frank Purdy have also been arrested
by Isabella county officers and their
cases will be disposed Of in that coun-
| ty.
An important case has recently
been decided in circuit court. II in
wolves the construction Of the will of
Lafayette Peters, late Of Sumner
township, who died possessed of con-
siderable property. In his will Peters
gave one HUNDRED dollars each to sew
4 cral near relatives. one hundred dol
lars each TO two young girls in Can
ada. who were gospel singers, five
hundred dollars to the Elwell NJ +.
church and all the remainder Of his
property to the Board of Foreign
Missions Of the NJ. +. church. After
this will had been made and on the
same day on which he died he exc
cuted the deed of one-half his farm
TO his brother, Abner Peters, also OF
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1917-11-29
THE ALMA RECORD

Sumner. The will contained clause
that the farm should not be sold for
five years after the death of Lafay-
cite Peters, unless it could be sold for
seventy-fve dollars per acre. This will
was admitted to probate and the re-
naming eighty acres of the farm sold
by the executors at less than seven
! ty-fve dollars per acre before the five
years had expired.
Jess h. Peters, of New Haven,
Conn, and Mary Bliss, Of Green Bay,
Mass, commenced suit in chancery
to set aside the deed to Abner Peters,
alleging that it was procured at n
time when Lafayette Peters was so
near to his death that he did not un-
derstand that he was making deed;
and also that the will was absolutely
void under the law which prohibits the
tying up of property for more than
two lives in being. This suit was
started by John Myers, Of Ithaca. and
Edwin II. Lyon, of st. Johns, as at
to.neys of the plaintiff. and about
thirty parties interested in the pro-
perty were named as defendants.
These defendants represented by o. G..
futile and George p. Stone, of Ithaca,
W. \. Bahlke and Charles Goggin, of
Alma, and VIII NJ. Smith, of ST.
Johns, moved to dismiss the case on
the ground that the plaintiffs had no
cause of action, and for other reasons.
Judge Scarf recently handed down
an elaborate opinion on this branch
of the case, in which he held that it
was unlawful TO tie up property for
five years and that estates in this
country can be entailed only for the
period Of two lives in being and that
the will was absolutely void. He also
held a recent statute attempting to
change this rule, where the gift is
made 10 a religious or charitable in
stitution, to be unconstitutional and
void I'm a SIMILAR case Judge Murphy,
of Detroit, held this statute constitu-
tional and in the Supseme court four
Judges agreed with him, while the
other four held il to be unconstitu-
tional The Peters case will now go
to the Supreme court where if the de
cision of Judge Scarf is upheld. one
half Of the property will 90 to the
contesting heirs. The contest rs to
the other half will have to be tried

New York, Jan. 1.-THE eighty

blackened ruin today, swept by flames

The loss, estimated at more than

which the company loads at this plant
