locating the error, showed the miners

Locates Fire In Mine.
Observations with the geophone
have also been made at mines which
were on fire. where II was found that
the FIRE made noise enough TO be
heard some distance, either because OF
its drawing air or the breaking Off OF
bits Of coal and slate. The geophones
by thus locating the fire give infor-
nation which may enable the mine
management to erect fire stopping In
the proper places or to make q direct
attack on the fire as for example BY
drilling holes for injecting water to
the seat Of the Are.
II is also the custom In some min
ing localities TO drill hole from the
surface into mine to carry pipe lines
or cables. Oftentlmes these drill holes
do not go to the right places, and 1t
Is with considerable difficulty and ex-
pense that tunnels are driven to
meet the drill hole. With the aid OF
the geophone the drills can be guided
better. especially since drilling can be
detected for nearly a mile.
Very satisfactory .results have been
obtained In attempts made to locate
leaks In water mains: The water cir
culating 10 the ordinary city main can
be heard with the geophones when
they are placed on the surface. ten to
twelve feet above the pipe. In the
business district Of Pittsburgh one
leak was located within few min
utes, although the water department
had been trying to find II for two
weeks.

The Amazing Widow.

As soon as Terrence left returned

Bashford on American soil my use Of
the residence even as a loaflng-place
was unbecomlng. Mrs Bashford was
not only In America, but with a motor
at her command she might reach

Gus, dominating woman who had cap

script of Searles' play, and fell upon

Lady Larkspur" was the name
assumed by the daughter Of recluse

She had known no life but that Of

kind. he had encouraged her In ma
ture-worship. She knew no literature
except the classics: all history. even
the history of the storied valley In
which she lived. was sealed book
to her.
The girls curiosity Is reused by the
sudden appearance Of strangers from
the unknown world beyond, whom
she mystlfes BY her quaint old-world-
ishness. Searles had taken an old
theme and given novel twist to It.
Tn solution Of the mystery Of the
fathers exile and an amusing COM
plicatlon of lovers afforded sus-
pensive interest well sustained to the
end. In the last act the girl appears
at ball at country house In sophis-
ticated raiment. and the story ends In
the key Of mirth In which IL began.
II was a delightful blending and
modernization Of Diana, ATLANTA.
Cinderella, and Rosalind; but even In
the typewriter page Il was amaz-
ingly alive and well calculated to
evoke tears and laughter. That
play so enthralling should be buried

Searles a long letter demanding that

house membership remains at 435.
Counties added to the First district
would, of course, have to be taken off
the Second or Third districts, both Of
which are understood
The Second district, which, by the
way, has been the slowest to report
its various county totals, will have
something more than 100000 popula-
ton, assuming that Daviess, Greene,
Knox and Monroe counties, which
have not yet reported. remain the
same size as they were in 1910. But
as 1T is certain that nearly all four
counties will show increases, the Sec
ond district probably will come closer
than some of the others to holding it's

territory intact, unless one or two of
its counties are added to the First or
Fifth districts.
The Third district, which is COM
plete. except for Clark county, shows
a population of 1866, assuming that
Clark will have the same population
as in 1910. This number makes the
district nearly 10000 shy in the neces-
sary population, and the Third district
will have to have at least two and
more likely three, counties, to fill it
out, in addition to the counties it may
need to make up losses by the addi-
ton Of its territory to other districts.
Fourth May Be Abolished.
The Fourth district, which is COM
plete, shows 179,702 population. 1t is
the smallest OF all the districts, and
as II is regarded as a strong Demo
cratic district, it probably will be the
district to be subdivided and abolish
ed. Its territory will be added to the
Third and Sixth districts, in all prob.
ability, to make up for their losses
in other directions.
The Fifth district, which is short
three counties, probably will be found
to be close to the requisite population
when Clay, Parke and Vermillion
counties report. Assuming the popu-
lation of these counties to be the
same as ten years ago, the district as
it now stands has ,097 population.
Sixth District Very Short.
The Sixth district also is extremely
short, as shown by the complete re-
turns, which give the district 1912
population. This makes the district
close to $4,000 short, which will be
made up, undoubtedly, by the addition
of counties from the Fourth district.
The Eighth district, complete ex-
cept for Madison county, shows 212,-
115 population. assuming that the pop
ulation of Madison will prove to be
the same as it was ten years ago. Not
many alterations will have to be made
to keep this district intact in the re-
apportionment
The Ninth district is shy approx
mately 10000, as complete returns
show 1t to have 1929. IT will need
one and possibly two more counties

INDIANA MAY LOSE
One CONGRESSMAN:
9Th DISTRICT SHORT

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12-Although
population returns from a score of
indiana counties have not yet been re-
ceived, 1t already Is evident that the
next congressional apportionment will
zee a radical shifting of the districts
OF the Indiana congressman to keep
pace with the shifting Of the popula-
ton.
On the basis of estimates which as
sumes that the total population of the
As states will be found to be in the
neighborhood OF 102,742,360 persons,
Indiana will be entitled to about 1913
seats in the house. if the house is
kept at it's present strength of 435
Indiana would lose one member of the
house. because fractions less than a
half are, under the precedents adopted
decided against the state.
This estimate Is made on the theory
that the population of the United
States will show an increase of ap-
proximately 10 per cent, which would
mean, assuming that the membership
Of the house is kept at 435, that each
state would be entitled to one member
Of the house for each 236,1S9 popula-
ton. Indiana's population for 1920
will be found to be in the neighborhood
OF 2,911, 1881, so that Indiana, under
this rule, probably would lose a seat
in the house.
Changes Appear Certain.
From the returns received, which
are complete for some of the districts
as they now composed, 1t is evident
that changes will have to be made by
way Of additions of territory, in the
First, Second, Third Fourth, Fifth,
Sixth, Eighth. Ninth, 18th and 18th
districts. The Seventh and 18th dis
tricts probably will be found to be the
only ones to have a surplus of popula-
ton.
The Seventh district, Marion coun-
ty, is expected to have approximately
$4,000 population, which would mean
that more than 100000 population
would have to be Topped off the
district in the reapportionment. This
would mean, without doubt, that Mar
ion county would make up all of one
district in the new apportionment and
that it also would make up nearly one
half of another district.
The 10th district, because OF the ire
mendous population increases in
Lake county, will have to be subdi-
vided in some way, although just how

Wood lives, Tippecanoe, out of the
Tenth district, along with Warren,
would give about the right population
to the rest of the counties, Benton,
Jasper, Porter, Lake, White and New
ton.
First District Situation.
The First district, as now composed
and according to complete returns,
will have only 1914 persons and
will of necessity have to have another
county at least, and probably two. to
give it the required population If the

shows 203,s25 population. 1t will also
need one or two counties to make 1t
Of the house.
Twelfth May Need County.
The Twelfth district, with the popu-
1ations Of Steuben, Dekalb and Noble
counties computed as of 1910, shows
207,309. Final returns probably will
show a smaller population and the
necessity of adding a county or two
to this district.
The Thirteenth district, with La
porte county figured as of 1910. shows
283,105 population. This will mean
the loss of one or two counties.
