OLD WOMAN MAKES QUILT
Makes One for Her Grandson That Contains 5,760 Pieces of
 Patches.

Medford, Wis.-NIrs. Jackson Moon of PerkInstown has just completed q quilt consisting Of 5,7G0 pieces for her grandson, William Woods of Wausau.
 The pieces were collected from friends and neIghbOrs. Work on the quilt began last April. Two weeks of continuous sewing made Mrs Moons fingers so sore that she was con- pelled to abandon the work for time, resting her fingers by spinning for q neighbOr.
 Mrs. Moon, although seventy years old. does her own houscwUrk, eater tains much company, helps with the milking, churns three times week, markets her butter. and no sick rela- tive or friend can find better nurse than she.
 In the past twelve years thIs indus trious lady has pieced l3 quilts each made up of thousands of pieces, all sewed by hand, for Mrs. Moon does not like 10 sew on machine.

Queer Old Canadian Law.

"The Rallfax Gilbert Law" a strange old local law, was enacted at Halifax, Yorkshire, at an early period by the woolen manufacture in that city, for the protection of the manu- lecturers against the thievlsh prOpen- stiles of persons who stole the cloth when stretched all night on racks or wooden frames, called tenters, to dry. The Gibbert law provided that all per sons within a certain circuit who had stolen property of or above tho value of 13 1-2d., were to be tried by the firth-burghers within the liberty and If found guilty, they were handed over to the magistrates for punishment, and were executed on the first market day following by means of an instrument similar to the gulllOtine. The law was relinquiShed in lGJO.

Lindenau Is Work
 ing New Fields
Washington, D. C. Man Writes of How Lindcnau Got His Money on Promise of Lucrative Job.

F. ". Lindenau who has sold much fake mining stock throughout the country on the strength of hay, ing claims in the Kasaan district and who was convicted in Minnesota of being q faker. shows up again catching more suckers. Evidence of this fact was received by the Chron- icle this morning in a letter from Washington, D. c.
 The letter, which is self eXplana- tory. is as follows:
 Washington. D. C.. Mar. 20. 1921. Editor of the KetChikan
 Chronicle. Ketchikan. Alaska. Dear Sir:
 In December 1920 I met man by the name F. W. Lindenau from your city who was selling mining stock. And like good fellow I bought. Or maybe only bit. And so did many others here. Now this man promised to put me to work as machinist at his mine called Kasaan Mining & Development Co, of Kasaan Peninsular. We have never heard from Mir. Lindenau since Jan. 1. 1921. wrote several letters to his address but all are returned un- claimed
 If I am not asking too much of you I wish you would put ma righ; on this. I am not so much worried as a few of the others here about the stock. But 1 would like to know if there is such a mine there or company under the name of Kasaan Mining and Development Co. Also would like to know what the pay is a machinist. I am now drawing S5O.4O per week. but was promised $500 per month with free meals and bunk. Please let me know what the pay is for all-arOund machinist, as I am somewhat anxious to come to Alaska and you can ease our worried minds with some news from Mir. Lindenau and the Kasaan Min ing & Development Co.
 Thanking you in advance for your kindness. Please find stamp enclos- ed.

POISONOUS BOOZE

A few days ago in Ketchikan a "prominent" bootlegger walked in- to a place of business, and in look ing around saw bottle which had label on it. bearing the words Wood Alcohol" He picked up the bottle. looked at it and saw that un- derueath was another label, reading Green River Whiskey." With q Smile he said: Tt was unnecessary to put on the second label. It is all the same thing"
 And that bootlegger knew where of he spoke. He knew that 99 per cent of all the liquor sold in Ketch- ikan today which is shipped in from Canada under the myths, "Old Crow" Green River" Peter Daw- son." and other equally well known brands of liquor are made up prin- cipally of wood alcohol, at least as far as the kick in them is concern ed.
 Fortunately there has been nc deaths from them yet, but warning has been sent out by Canadian au- thorities that they are poisonous and that they will ultimately dc much damage. Anyone looking for suicide route will do well to con- tinue drinking them, but those who value their health, even though they like a little liquor will do well to let them alone.-Ketchikan Chron. icle.

Bats and Bees.
crop.

For many years hay" noticed when the lime trees are in flower the ground beneath them Strcwcd with dead bees (rhe small humblc-hcc), states Scot tish correspondent on nature matters. Rut l don't think this can he the work of bats. as suggested, for the bees are generally whole, outwardly, but their mSlGcs are eaten away. Can 1t be that there is some tiny insect in the lime flower which, fastening on them as they suck tho honey, eats into their hoIip>. and causes them tO drop down dead nclow thc tree? l have never noticed any number of bats about the trees or an evening, and besides a bats mouth would be toJ large to eat .hom out like that
