Valuable Material From Tree.

''Blackboy" is name commonly ap-
piled to the peculiar grass-trees Nan-
thorrhoea) of western Australia,
which grow to height of z to 10 feet,
and have thick blackened trunks with
terminal tufts of wiry, grass-like
leaves. The different species yield an
abundance of fragrant resin. In ex-
periments by Henry Rowley, formerly
city analyst of Perth, the materials
Obtainable from these plants were
studied, and methods were devised
for extracting and treating the gum,
pith and fiber. The company now
formed for developing the products
commercially has provided an equip
ment of retorts, furnaces, condensers,
receiving tanks, etc, sufficient for util-
izing a considerable quantity of what
has been a vegetable waste. Among
the useful substances obtained are
tars free from harmful acids, tar
pauln dressings, rope tar and sanitary
tar, lacquers. steam and refrigeratinS
pipe tagging, stains and paints, pitches
for marine insulating. phenol. benzol,
alcohol, coke, potash, and pyroge-
nous acid; and dyes, perfumes, form
ain and various varnishes are expect
ed to follow.

WEALTH IN DETROIT RIVEf
Waters Said to Conceal vauaoles
That Would Easily Be Worth
Millions of Dollars.

While thousands are striving *
stretch the shrinking dollar to meet
the ii. Z. l.. in Detroit these days .
fortune lies unclaimed in the hed OF
Detroit river. No one can estimate
even approximately, the value of The
submerged treasure In dollars. but IL
is safe to assume that II will run into
the millions.
Marine divers testify TO the tons
of copper ingot, coal. machinery. IN.
salvaged vessels and money scattered
along the river bed from Windmill
Point to Detroit River light. The
banks and shelving beaches of the
harbor line at and above Belle isle
are in shallow water, but the bank of
the undivided river section below the
island is built out to deep water, and
explorations are more difficult than
near Belle isle.
In recent years |. has been known
that money and jewelry to the value
of 100000 has been lost in the river.
One rum runner lost $500 in wallet
while trying to escape federal officers
by jumping overheard from q boat.
A wealthy woman dropped $1,000
necklace from a passenger boat when
the string of gems broke as she leaned
over the boats rail.
James McCabe, immigration in
spector, who patrols the Canadian bor-
der for Chinese smugglers, affirms that
within the past ten years smugglers
drowned Chinese to escape immigra-
tion officers who pursued the SNUG
gler's boats, and in nearly every case
the drowned Chinese had large sums
of money concealed in their clothing.
Neither the bodies nor the money have
been recovered because the feet of the
drowned Chinese were weighted with
iron.
The engines of sunken wrecks If
salvaged, would be as good as new
today, marine engineers say, and their
sale would bring large profits to sal
vagers.
A rumor is current In local marine
circles that a syndicate is forming to
operate in Detroit river at certain
point, kept secret, in the hope of recov-
ering lost treasures. Just what treas
ures the syndicate seeks is not re-
vealed.
Detroit police department officials
say that the river holds the loot of
many burglaries in Detroit. The thugs
and cracksmen who dropped the loot
into the river. evidently noted care
fully the direction Of the currents so
that at some opportune time they
could return to recover their spoils.

His Prior Right.

A major in the stevedore regiment
employed one of his men to take care
of his horses and do little chores
around the yard. One day Sam came
into the majors office, and he was
some agitated man. After he had sa-
luted he exclaimed major, l want to
be relieved from dis hyar job right
now!"
The major asked him why he didn't
want the job any more.
Major. that thar job is good enuff
but just can't seem to get along with
yo' all's wife. Seems every time

me to doin' all kinds of chambermaid

Photography From the Air.

In Tasmania Photographic enter
prise has taken on a new form. A
Tasmanian photographer, determined
to Guido his rivals in getting pictures
of the most picturesque state in the
commonwealth chartered a recently
imported airplane, went aloft, and
obtained magnificent views. These
were exhibited in his shop window,
sold like hot cakes. and amply re-
warded him for his enterprise. The
cinematograph man will now be put
upon his mettle and the picture shows
no doubt, will soon be showing their
audiences moving scenic pictures OF
surprising range and beauty. In time
pictures taken from the airplane will
probably be used to instruct children
in geography.

Swift Shins for Pacific

Sharp competition between the
Canadian Pacific ocean services and
the Nippon Yusen Kaisha bids fair
materially to reduce the time of trans
Pacific travel. The former is adding
a 22,000-ton passenger steamer to the
two now in the service, the running
time of which is nine days from Van
couver to Yokohama and II days to
HongkOng.
The japanese company has three
boats under construction, each of
about 10000 tons, and it expects that
these will make the run from YOko-
hama to Seattle in eight days.
