The principal figure in the battling

known as James q. Mahoney and is
strongly suspected of being the keyst

aged bride Kate Mahoney. Former
Kate Moers married Mahoney short
time before her disappearance on Ap-
riI 17th and possessed a fortune OF
several hundred thousand dollars. She
was seventy two years of age at the
time while Mahoney gives his age as
80 years: Mrs. Mahoney's matrimon-
| ial record prior TO her marriage to
Mahoney consisted in two deceased
husbands and one divorced It is ap-
parent that Mahoney welded the eld-
erly lady to secure her fortune and
enjoy the pleasure its thousands
would give. The charge is pending
that he murdered. the woman to secure
entire control of the wealth. - :.

THE ALCHEMISTS DREAM
(ToId In Eight sketehes)
BY JOHN RAYMOND

Through the literature of the an
clients runs the absorbing story of the
alchemist's patient search for the
tombstone which would transform all
base metals into pure gold, and the
never-ending quest for the elixir which
would restore youth to the aged and
would cure all human ills. The alche-
mist, driven from cellar to garrett and
often put to death, had an elemental
knowledge of chemistry and vaguely
dreamed that IL could be made to per-
form wonders.
II was Ben Jonson's alchemist,
Subtle, back in the early seventeenth
century who planned ito change all
that is in my house to gold, and early
In the morning to send to all the
plumbers and pewterers and buy their
tin and lead up; and to Lothbury for
all the copper" And more than that,

and twenty days he planned to trans
form an old man Of four score into a
prattling child.

year. Even with an extensive move

at no time were campaigns going on in

DYE works.

OF these intermediates, one line Of
treatment will produce drugs. another
high explosives, another poison gases,
still other perfumes, food favors and
Photographic materials. Some have
varying peace and war time uses with
out further treatment. 1t should be
noted that some OF these crudes re.
qure as many as fifteen manipulations
to produce given compound and in
each manipulation by-product Is
produced which again must be made
into something useful in order to avoid
waste.
II is because of this treatment and
rctreatment Of coal, crudes and inter-
mediates that II is so easy to convert
dye plant into factory for the pro-
duction of high explosives or poison
Gus gases almost over night:
Germany was indeed farsighted,
back in 1859, when she took advantage
of Perkins discovery, and began the
development OF gigantic dye industry
so that she might never be without the
crudes and intermediates SO essential
to success in war or peace.
Germany developed the synthetic
dye industry, just as she developed
other industries, 10 create employment
and wealth for her millions. But
through these developments she learn
ed the value Of chemistry, Of chemicals,
and Of chemists themselves. She real
lied early how dependent her peace
development was on chemistry and
she soon saw the value of chemical in
dustries to war. Germany saw that
the manufacture OF dyes required much
chemical research and also that dye
making made use of the waste prod
ucts from the coke ovens, themselves
a necessity to her iron and steel in
dustry. She saw its value in the pro-
duction of explosives, gases and fer
tilizers for her fields. This foresight
gave Germany forty year start on
the United States. and the rest Of the
world.

UTAH ESTABLISHES
NEW RECORD

Salt Lake city, Dec. a. ihioi
nation has been received at state
hcad1uarters of the Utah state
Farm Bureau In this city that Utah
has established new national re-
cord In the farm bureau movement.
This has been accomplished, according
to a report from the American Farm
Bureau Federation. by the organiza-
ton and operation Of membership
campaigns in six counties at the same
time. In letter from Charles f.
Gunnels, director OF organization for
the national organization. II is pointed
out that heretofore no state has found
II possible to conduct more than four
county campaigns at one time and In
most instances the work is confined
to single county.
This has been made possible by the
caliber OF farmers found in Utah who
are capable OF serving as team lead
ers in the solicitation work and In
acting as speakers at campaign meet
ings, according to a report submitted
to the state executive committee by
o. Il. Wolcott, national organizer for
the American Farm Bureau Fererati-
on. who is directing the campaigns.
Working In the six counties where
campaigns are now going on are
forty-three team leaders and six
speakers with an average Of ten
meeting being held every night. ac-
cording to Mr. wolcott.
"This Is the first state that have
visited In which there has been avail
able such n large number Of men OF
sufficient caliber TO carry on he or
ganization work in this way" said
the national organizer at recent
meeting of the state farm bureau ex-
ecutive board. THE widespread in
terest OF the farmers Of Utah In the
farm bureau movement has NJ
this possible and | seriously question
whether another state in the Union
would lie able to make such show
ing.
In addition to the intense interest
which have found In the farm bu-
reau movement and also due to the
fact that Utah Is one OF the pioneer
farm bureau state. I believe much c.
dit for the capable work Of the larg;
number OF men now engaged In the
campaign may be given to the church
work in which many OF them TAXI
part. Cooperative effort is typical o
this state. 1t has been part of tn,
states history from the first pioneers
crossed the plains and 1t Is the les
son taught through the success of TIM
brotnerly endeaNor that will solv
many or the problems Of agriculture
through the channels of farm burea
organizations.
IN view OF the fact that IL Ia
Dcen pOSSlDle TOT iue 10 Iully organ
ize six county campaigns and ha,
them In full operation within fort
days after my arrival in the state
a showing OF which Utah farmers ma
be proud. During that time We hay
held more than i25 meetings OF loca
bureaus. conducted six schools c
instruction for team leaders and hel
, preliminary campaign conference
with several board directors.
THE interest displayed by the far
mers of this state in the farm burea
| movement as whole and practical
, arly in THE three year program

tons OF coal were used
Because OF the enormous demands
for war materials modern by-product
ovens were constructed and in 1919
more than 81 per cent OF our coke sup
ply came from these ovens. 1t is esti-
mated that for every ton OF coke made
in modern by-product ovens there is
saved in fuel alone S25 pounds OF coal.
When a house holder burns a ton of
coal he has sacrificed something like
1900 cubic fee, of gas, nine gallons of
tar, twenty-five pounds OF ammonium
sulphate, 2.0S gallons OF pure benzol
and 0.56 gallons Of pure toluol.
In our Industrial life the use of coal
derivatives is just beginning to be felt.
The rubber industry depends upon
these products for solvents, COM
pounding ingredients and softeners.
Practically all types of paint now use
icrivative Of coal, Printing inks,
shoe polishes, brake Innings, dry clean
ers, perfumes, explosives, linoleums,
CLUES. pastes and Photographic de-
velopers, contain coal products as
basic ingredients. The paper industry,
the soap business, and the shoe manu-
facturer would be in serious difficulties
without the by-products of coal tar.
The electrical industry would lose its
chief source OF insulating material and
the doctors and druggists would be
without sufficient supply OF phenol
to make their supply OF everyday
drugs.
Coal tar, the refuse of ancient vege-
table Kingdoms, is valuable because il
produces a galaxy of brilliant colors,
not so much for the colors themselves
but because in producing them so
many Intermediates are developed that
are of inestimable worth to the indus
trial life Of the nation.
