HUSBAND NO. 1 COPS
 SPOUSE FROM NO. Z

Twice stolen is the record of a Miami woman whose relations with two local men has given the "eternal triangle" an odd twist. The woman in question is now missing from the community, enjoying according to her second husband, an elopment with her first husband.
 The matter was brought to the at- tention of the authorities this morn. ing when the second husband, a shift boss in the employ of the local copper company, complained to the sheriff that his wife had disappeared. Her disappearance concided with the dis appearance of his pay check and a large sum of money, which he kept in the house ,and both faded from the scene Sunday morning.
 Question elicited the statement from the husband that he had elop- ed with the woman to California two years ago, at which time she left her home here under similar circumstan- ces. Later, a divorce was arranged with her first husband, and the run away couple were married.
 Shortly afterward, theya returned to the community, and husband No. ?, resumed his position in one of the local mines.
 The deserted husband avoided both, apparently, and displayed no disposi- tion to bother them, though it was reported to both he was still insanely in love with his former spouse.
 In the light of later events, it ap- peared that he again wooed and won the woman who had left him for an- other. Without arising the slightest suspicion, their plans were laid and carried out. It was not until the wo- man had been missing from her home for several days that the truth of the situation dawned on Husband No. 2.
 No legal steps have been taken as yet to bring back the elopers who are said to have fled to Texas. Husband No. 2 realizes that he is victim of retribution which has been camping on his trail for two years and he is loathe to institute legal proceedings. On the other hand he is spurred to action by the natural desire for re- venge.
 Upon the ultimate result of these warning inclinations depends the fate of the fleeing couple.

MINING OF UNUSUAL
 MINERALS IN 1919

If the casual reader ran across the words lepidolite and amblygonite in a theological paper he might mistake them for the names of tribes of the Philistines; if he found them in a paper on fossil skeletons he might suppose they meant some kinds of ar mored reptiles that ranged the swamps of the Cretaceous period. A companion word, spodumene, though it ends with "mene," would mean nothing to him. Lepidolite, ambly- gonite, and spodumene are the names of the most abundant lithium miner als-minerals that are used as sour ces of the salts of lithium, one of the chemical elements. Lithium suggests a mineral water or salts used for the treatment of rheumatism. But that is another story. A large percentage of the lithium minerals mined is made into lithium for use in storage batter ies of a certain type. Lithium salts and lepidolite are added to glass "batches" ta reduce the viscosity of the melted glass-that is, to make it flow more freely. Lithium chloride has been used to some extent in fire works and signal lights, to which it imparts an intense red color.
 Most of the lepidolite mined in the United States is taken from deposit near Pala, San Diego County, Calif., and most of the amblygonite is mined in South Dakota, where it occurs in masses weighing hundreds of pounds. Practically all the spodumene produced in the United States is mined in the Black Hills, in South Dakota, where it occurs in immense crystals, some of them more than 30 feet long.
 Lithium minerals amounting to G. 2s7 short tons, valued at $115,OOO, were produced in the United States in 1919-more than ten times as much as was produced in any year be- fore 1916.
 A brief report on the production of lithium minerals in 1919, by Herbert Insley, can be obtained free on apph- cation to the Director, U s. Geolog- ical Survey, Washington, D. c.

CEMENT SHIPPED HERE
IN GONDOLA COAL CAR
Three Rainstorms During Journey
Fail to Reach Much Needed
Material.

After passing through three rain

tons Of cement to be used on street

Washington in perfect condition in a
eondola coal car. covered with can
vass.
This novel means of getting around
the shortage of box cars. IN which
cement usually is shipped, was de-
yised by the Crawford Paving Com
pany, and may eliminate much of the
enced in the past few months in COM
pleting street projects.
When the paving company found
that it could get fiat car, it bought
a piece of canvas big enough to cover
the top. A framework to hold the can
vas in place was hastily rugged upon
| the nat car and the experiment tried.
This shipment of seventy-six tons is
| the largest to arrive in the District
| for street work this year.
Every effort will be made to get ad-
ditional shipments through regularly.
Repair gangs are at work patching
