MOlasses On Stick Shows
 Whether Gasoline Is Diluted

St. Paul.-Dutle dabsr of molasses on plain pine sticks in the hands of 6f oil inspec.ors in Minnesota have saved users of gasoline thousands of dollars during the past year, according to Hjalmar. Nilssen.- State oil inspector. Accidentally, this simple test for dis eoreriug water in gasoline has gone out from Minnesota to q. dozen other States.
 On the theory thaG'water is heavier than gasoline and always.sinks' to the bottom,eMr. Nilsson devised the simple test year ago. A stick dipped ia cheap molasses giides through gasoline without showing any effect ea the mo- lasses. But when waterSis encountered the molasses comes offsthe stick. When the stick is witbnrawn the exact amount of water n the bottom of. the tank is clearly revealed

 San Frauoisco.-RegardIe of the final outcome of the case in which his liberty is at stake,. the gay party staged here by Roscoe .sEattyo Ar buckle. premier heavyweight screen comedian, promises to take ipst rank in expensive social affairs.
 If the estimates of Federal aathori- ties as to the amount of Scotch whisky and Gordon gin consumed from Satur- day, Septem Der 3, until Tuesday, Sep- tember 6, are correct, the cost at pre- vaiiing boosleg quotations was some where around S2, 800
 Arbuckle's blll for the three days occupancy of the choiceet twelfth floor suite of the St. Francis Hotel was no small sum. The hotels rates are noted for their. eSpensi saness. Telephone. telegraph, and restaurant service was lavish. They were not meah-and there were many to pc tlppeo.
 But in the final settlement these items will prove piker amounts to the cost of defending himself on the charge he now faces.
