MAKING GAS FROM
LOGS AND PAVING BLOCKS

LONDON, July 26-Gas made
from old oak logs is now being
supplied successfully to the IN
habitants of Steyning in Sussex.
Other towns are rapidly following
suit. 1t is claimed that this wood
gas has practically the same heat
ing and lighting properties as coal
gas and its use means ii saving of
more than half a dollar per LOCO
cubic feet to the consumer.
The Steyning gas works are be-
ing threatened with closure owing
to the prohibitive price of coal,
about 5 pounds Sterling a ton, the
carbonization of wood was resort
ed to as an experiment, with the
result that wood gas has been
definitely adopted as an illuminant
until the price of coal comes down.
AT Birmingham, old road paving
blocks have been converted into
wood gas with equally satisfactory
results.

WEST BURKE
Sudden Death of Henry M.
Moulton

Henry w. Moulton was born in
Medford, Mass. Dec. 20, 1845. He
was the son OF Ira and Mary
Moulton, and was one of a family
Of six children. lie enlisted when
about 16 years old and served until
the close of the war. During his
absence his people moved to New
port, Vermont, leaving there in a
few years to come to the farm in
Burke, which has been the home
of his brother, Gilman, for so
many years.
He married Miss Caroline
Grimes of Newport, in 1869, and
their home has always been in this
village. Mr.. Moulton built the
house now owned by Mrs. Kate
Cahill, and also his present home,
which they have occupied for
nearly 40 years.
Mr.. Moulton was a member Of
d. Ratterry Post, and of Caledonia
Lodge, F. and A. M. and will be
sadly missed in both orders. He
was very devoted husband; and
10 we'd his home as few men, do.
He was carpenter by trade, but
left that work to become a mail
clerk, running between Newport
and Springfield, Mass. He was
on the road ia years, retiring
nearly twenty years ago.
He had been failing in health for
some years, but had grown worse
during the past winter and spring.
Last Monday evening he went to
the barn to grind his scythe, and
dropped dead, while there. He was
found by his wife, who grew anx-
ious at his long absence, and went
to see what detained him. -
Death was caused bv bad leak
age of the heart. The funeral took
place Wednesday afternoon, Rev.
w. H. Gould officiating, and the
interment was in Hillside cemetery.
He was surrounded by quantities
of beautiful flowers, which seemed
especially fitting, as few men care
for flowers as he did. Wintey and
summer there were always bios
SONS in, or about his home, and
he often brought his wife a rare
makeplant, which she never failed
to make grow and thrive.
Beside his wife, who is very
feeble, and quite alone, he leaves
one brother Alvah, and sister,
Mrs. Annie Gordon, both of this
place. Mrs. Moulton and the
other relatives have the deep sym
pa.hy of the community, in their
great loss.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The amount of
hard liquor a sick man may acquire
legally is definitely fixed by statute,
but the only limit to the amount OF
wine he may obtain is the Sound and
honest" Judgment of his physician and.
perhaps. the depth of his purse
Prohibition Commissioner Kramer in
formal announcement to-day says
there seemed to be some confusion as
to the quantity of wine that physi-
clan may prescribe. To clear up all
| doubts he lays down this rule:
Until further orders physicians may
prescribe in their practice such quaint
ties of wine as they, in the exercise
of their sound and honest Judgment,
| deem necessary In the particular case,
II they in good faith believe that the
| use of wine as a medicine by the per-
| son for whom it is prescribed is neces-
sary and will afford relief to him from
| some known ailment."
Mr.. Kramer warned that physicians
should use extraordinary care" not to
abuse 'the right given them" ana State
directors were told to guard this mat
ter most carefully to the effect that
the said privilege be not abused by any
| physicians"

AUTOMOBILE THIEF BETRAYS
MOTOR COPS TO WHITMAN

yer. Leonard NJ. Wallstein. Mr.. Schieffe-
lin filed a taxpayers action in the Su-
preme Court before Justice Blur seek
ing TO restrain Mr. Enright from paying
himself a yearly pension of $3.50 out
of the Police Pension Fund.
Briefly, Mr.. Schieffelin contends that
the act of the Legislature making II
possible for cop who becomes a Police
Commissioner to retire himself on the
pay of chief inspector is imperative
in Mr.. Enright's case inasmuch as II
was intended to work prospectively and
not retrospectively. The complaint has
it that Mr. Enright had ceased to be a
member of the police force at the time
the law was enacted---May. 1918. To
this the Police Commissioner replies that
he was on detached service and leave
of absence from the time Mayor Hylan
plucked him from his desk lieutenancy
and appointed him head of the police
January. 191S--until he retired himself
from the force In December, 1920.
Mr.. 5chieffelin counters with the allie
cation of Leo j. McDermott. an account
ant foi Mr. Wallstein. who makes affi-
davit to the effect that whereas per
cent. OF each policeman's annual pay is
deducted for the upkeep of the pension
fund Mr.. Enright has contributed moth
ing from his salary as Police Commits
sioner. Inasmuch as Mr.. Enright did
not receive his lieutenancy pay in addi-
ton to his salary as Police Commits
sioner. Mr.. Wallstein contends that he
could not have contributed any part of
that to the pension fund
Mr. McDermotts affidavit has it that
it costs the city 100000 every yeay
to make UP the deficit in the pension
fund. Therefore Mr. Schieffelin COM
plains that inasmuch as Mr.. Enrght pre-
sumably intends paying himself PEN
sion out of the fund of which he is
treasurer the money, naturally, will
come out of the taxpayers pocket. Mr..
Schieffein intends to fight any attempt
OF Mr.. Enright to hand himself money
supplied the fund by taxpayers. of which
Mr. Schieffelin is one.
The application demands that Mr.. En-
right be prevented from continuing him
self on the pension roll and that he be
enjoined from including the S3,750 he
would pay himself in any estimate of
the necessary annual pension levy upon
the fund.
Justice Blur set Tuesday as the day
for argument. The papers were served
upon Mr.. Enright at Police Headquarters.
