Explaining Rusting of Iron.

A new theory explaining the rust
ing of iron was advanced by J.. New
ton Friend of Birmingham, England.
at the meeting Of the American Elec-
tro-Chemlcal society.
What happens when iron rusts is
a metallurgical mystery. Friend be-
lieves the corrosion starts by the
formation of colloidal ferrous hydrox-
ide, which latter is alternately re-
duced by contact with iron and OK
idized by contact with air, thus con-
tinuing the corrosion and the produc-
ton of rust"
He also has found by experiment
that although a piece of iron rusts
badly when in water moving about a
half a mile an hour, that when the We
locity is 2k miles an hour or more,
there is practically no rusting at all.

Congress has been advised, the sec

the framing of revenue laws on that
basis and there now appeared no rea-

Senator Watson, Republican, Indi.
ana, said the information before the
finance committee was that factories
Of the American Chicle Company were
closed down and that the removal of
the tax had been suggested to get
those plants started up again. He de-
clared that so far as the committee
knew, "Mr. Wrigley" did not care
about the tax that he never had asked
that it be removed.
Those in charge of the bill explained
it would be advisable to wait until
the Senate had passed on the excess
profits repeal and other major pro-
posals before finishing with the mis-
cellaneous taxes, as 1t might be neces-
sary to raise more revenue from these
sources than the committee had con
templated.

would ask unanimous consent for a

With three boys like Daniels, Woods and Stevens, it looks as though the 125-pound class will be a big enter tainment In itself All of the boys in this class are not only fast and clever. but they are also punchers who are willing to get right up toe to toe with an opponent and mix until the cows come home.

 If the tourney goes just half as good as the prospects indicate, it will be a big success, for never before in the history of the B. A. c. has any boxing event had the promise of go- ing as good as this one.

 Should Furnish
 Much Amusement

Those who wish to enter the city boxing tourney or try out for the B. A. c. team for the national tour ney, which comes off here in Feb ruary or March, are requested to be at the Athletic club around o'clock tonight. At o'clock Tommy Tomp- kins expects to have the boys at work, and the prospects are that the best boxing material that has ever as- sembled to try for the club team will be on hand tonight. Good teams have been made from 30 or 40 boys in the past, but tonight there should be at least 60 candidates for the team, and if Tommy Tompkins can't get a good team out of this bunch, 1t will surprise those who know anything of Tommy's ability to make the gang take an interest and work hard
 Jimmy Woods fought last year for the B. A. C. in the bantam class, but as luck would have 1t he met the winner of the tourney in one of the early tights, and was unable to land anything better than third. Jimmy also had hard time making the weight. and greatly weakened himself in doing this, so this year he will perform in the 125-pound class. Woods should go mighty good in this division, too, as he has worlds of stuff and can take lot of punish ment without being bothered a bit If Jimmy does not have any hard luck he should make things real hot in the national tourney for some of the entrants from other cities.
 Stevens a Conner
 There is one kid, however, who will give Jimmy all of the entertain ment he wants in one night in the city tournament, and this kid is Danny Stevens. Stevens is just about Woods size and fights on the same style He is a clever boxer, but he does much of his work with his mighty right, and woe be unto the bird who lets his jaw get in the way of this right wing. Aside from be- ing able to deal out a world of pun ishment, Stevens is capable of ab- sorbing it with just about the same
