ated part OF the wealth. He has made
two stalks grow where but one grew
before Likewise in the grape fruit
section. Before the American came
this land was in many cases jungle.
He has cleared, plowed and planted
and therefore increased the value OF
the land. Because this increment re-
verts to him and makes him rich is
but the workings of natural law, Be
fore he came the jungle was yalueless.
Now it is profit producing, and offers
labor to those who will.
Those who enjoy grape fruit on the
breakfast table have but d faint idea
of the elaborate journey that grape
fruit travels from the tree to the table.
1t is mechanically cleaned, polished
and sorted, on a long felt covered
screw which carries each size TO its
respective bin. Afterwards it is wrap
ped, boxed and shipped. The sorting
process is all by machinery unaided by
the human hand, and in fact the fruit
is untouched after it is fed into the
washing machine which is the first
operation.
Next week we will leave for st.
Thomas. In leaving we will part from
a people and customs essentially Sou
tn European and after a journey OF
scarcely forty miles emerge in a land
partaking of Nothen Europe and
speaking the English language The
transitions of language and customs
between West India islands lying
close together is one of the interesting
experiences awaiting the traveller who
visits this part of the world

For laces put tube Of paint into
gasoline and stir until dissolved, then
test the shade by dipping in a sam
pie. If too dark, add more gasoline,
but If the shade is too light, put In
more paint. Dip the lace up and down
until the tint is obtained then shake
the lace out and let it dry. Press on
the wrong side with warm aatiron.
Pull gently, but do not wash first. Os-

TENDS END
 OWN CARER
Two Slice Pal in Search of $2O.OO- Then Go at Each Other
 Over Spells

NEW YORK, N. Y. July 12, (By MaiO.-AS desperate a band of gun men as this city ever developed prac- tically came to an end without police aid when Matthew Joseph CaSSelli and Thomas Abruzzo fought a duel with knives in a room in West Forty-third street
 Cassell, known as Monte" was killed and Abruzzo, known as "Ninny, suffered wounds which probably will terminate his life.
 The two men were in flight from Boston, where they had completed a series of robberieS with as mean a murder as the police ever knew, when they fought over the division of spells.
 CaSSelh, Abruzzo and Frank Cas- Selh, cousin of "Monte," and known to his companions as "Slim," fled to Boston from New York less than two weeks ago and there committed Sev- eral burglarieS and highway robberieS.
 "Slim" Gets SEQ Gold Piece
 The last crime of the trio there was the robbery of a waiter, from whom were taken several bills and a S20 gold piece. "Slim" took charge of the money on the way back to their rooms and when the time for division came the $2O gold piece was missing.
 Monte" and "Ninny" knew that for years it had been a favorite trick or Sims" to swallow the stakes in a crap game and they accused him of swallowing the gold piece. With no more compunction than would move a butcher in killing a chicken, "Slim" was killed in a most brutal manner, with knives, and the body was cut open and searched for the missing coin.
 Not being skilled anatomiStS, "Mon- te" and "Ninny" failed to find the coin and left Boston, returning to New York. The murder of "Slim" was a mystery to the Boston police until the autopsy revealed the $2O gold piece in the stomach.
 "Monte" and "Ninny" Alarmed
 A dispatch from Boston telling of the developments in the murder and
The Seward gateway and the Alaska evening post., 1917-08-08

that the dead man had ben identified as "Slim" Casselli was printed in the New York newspapers. That story was seen by "Monte" Caseli and "Ninny' Abruzzo in their room in Forty-thnd street.
 Abruzzo, according to his later statement in Polyclinic hospital sug- geSted they leave New York at once and go West. Casseli said no. Abru2- 70 demanded his share of the crime fund. That started the fight. The two men attacked each other with the long blades of pocket knives.
 Mrs. Neydel, who rented the room to them, heard them struggling and cursing and called policeman. All was still when the policeman reached the house. He broke in the locked door and found "Monte" Casselli dead and Abruzzo helplessly wounded.

LOST HIS HAND

HAYNES, July 25, (Mail Correspon- dence) ).-Fritz Nelson, employed near Porcupine, lost his hand in an eXplo- sion recently and while bein-' taken to the hospital plunged 225 feet down a cliff while in a wagon, without re- ceiving additional injuries. In the first accident his face was badly lacerated and his eye injured. Nelson was placed in a wagon and sent to Haines.
 At the time of the last accident the wagon was ascending the steep grade, a short distance west of the High Line bridge. The kingbolt hold ing the doubletrees to the wagon broke. There was no brake on the wagon and no safety chains connecting the doubletrees to the wagon. The driver was pulled clear out of the wagon and it started down hill. The attendant to the injured man jumped out and attempted to block the wheels, but was unsuccessful.
 The wagon reached the edge of the bluff and turned over, crashing to the bottom, 225 feet below. The vehicle was broken into small bits but the injured miner was found lying on his mattress at the foot of the bluff, ap- parently without having suffered fur ther injury on account of the fall. When the accident was reported to Mir.

SEATTLE, May 10.-The Everett murder cases came to an abrupt end here tonight, when the court dis missed the indictments against the seventy-four Industrial Workers who were being held for trial on charges of murder in connection with the Everett riot last November. Only one case came to trial. This was the case of Thomas Tracy, who was recently acquitted of the charge of murdering Jefferson Beard, one of the members of the sheriff's posse who resisted the attempt of the I. W. W.'s to land at the Everett city dock
 The dismissal of the last seventy four cases was not entirely uneX- pected, many of the attorneys con nected with the cases having here tofore predicted such an action.

TWO HOSPITAL,
 VESSELS $ SUNK
 BY SUBMARINES
Associated Prcss)


 LONDON, May 10.-A ruror of in dignation was aroused today when the admiralty announced the sinking of two more British hospital ships, loaded with wounded soldiers, by German submarines The bare an nouncement was made, no details being given out, nor the location of the ships. Owing to the fact that the statement is made regarding the loss of lives, it is feared by the public that it was unusually heavy.
 These are the first hospital ships to be attacked in some time. Ia fact, since the recent raid made by the British aeroplancs as a reprisal for the destruction of a shipload of wounded men by the GerNln under sea craft, these boats have not been moleSted until today All the news papers are today clamoring for fur ther reprisals, and 1t is thought that the admiralty will begin campaign of vigorous retaliation immediately.

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 10.- The report submitted to both houses of congress today by the joint con- ferees relative to the army bill shows that the provision whereby Col. Theodore Roosevelt was to be given the right to raise volunteers if it passed was eliminated. It was originally voted down in the house and passed by the senate, conse- quently it was one of the matters that had to be passed upon by the representatives of both houses of congress. It provided that Col. Roosevelt should be allowed to raise force of volunteers for service in France at government expense.

 The attack took place off the coast Of Ireland on May 3 As the ship was in the so-called war zone, a sharp lookout was being kept, but owing to the sea being somewhat rough, the submarine was not sight ed until it was almost ready to make an attack The defense guns were Immediately trained on the attacker, and saved the ship and it's cargo of passengers from certain destruction.
