 Instead of the plant being wrecked, the 38 men Alleged to have planned the destruction of the property were arrested and brought to the jail here All but seven were released on bonds of $1,000 each. They are charged with night riding

It was an old field, grown up in tall grass, a short distance from Montana, min ing settlement about one and quar- ter miles from the strip pit that was to have been blown up.
 Hiding in the grass, the officers laid in wait. Presently two or three men appeared. They promptly were ar- rested and their arms confiscated In groups of from two to five or six other miners arrived until the total reached 38. Most of them work masks, the sheriff said

One night Aunt Morals young man, who, by the way, hap pened to possess great charm for Ruth, arrived Auntie, thinking that he might be able to persuade her on this occasion, secretly informed him of the affair, and then when Ruth came into the room mentioned the fact that she wished her niece to have her hair bobbed. He took the cue, and immediately told of how thick it made hair to have it bobbed. Ruth listened a minute and then looked at auntie's mass of pinned-on curls.

WAX MUST FIRST BE HEATED
Impossible to Get Light From Wax Candle Without the Presence of
 Necessary Gases.

A wax candle really is a gas torch You will find that when you apply 8 lighted match to the wick of a candle it will not light readily. You have to hold the match to the wick until the wick burns sufficiently to heat the wax hot enough to turn it into gases which on mixing with the oxygen in the air, produce the fire in the form of light.
 The candle will continue to be lighted and to burn as long as the wax continues hot enough to give off the gases or until the candle is en- tirely consumed. Any interruption to this process of transforming the wax into gas will result in the extinguish- ing of the light.
 The reason the candle goes out when you blow on the flame is that the gases which feed the flame at the end of the wick are blown away, the process of turning the hot wax into gas is interrupted and with the gas supply shut off the flame is ex- nguished.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

 Some persons were killed at Lud- wigshafen, across the river from Mannheim, many roofs were blown off houses and all the windows in the town were broken at Worms, while of Oppau itself nothing remains but a heap of ruins.
 The shock was felt as far as Frank fort, more than 40 miles away, and many windows were broken there
