Exnlalnlna Rustina 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- Chemical 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 piece of iron rusts
badly when in water moving about a
half n mile an hour, that when the We
locity is 21s miles an hour or more,
there is practically no rusting at all.

FATHER ANDSON
 SHOT TO DEATH
LONNIE LANES KILLS JIM SHAY. FER AND SON OHIO, AT BEIRNE
 THIS MORNING.

Riding up to the store of Shaver and Son at Beirne this morning about ? o'clock. Lonnie James dismounted and walked into the store, according to re- ports. and pulling out pistol shot to death MT. Jim Shaver and his son, Otho
 James immediately got on his horse and started 'back towards Gurdon.
 News of the shooting had evidently been telephoned to Gurdon as parties were on the way to the scene, having boa rded the train coming toward Beirne. Looking out of the window, some one in the coach noticed horse man and recognized the rider as Lon nie James. The train was stopped and several parties got off which caused James to flee. His capture followed shortly afterward and he was taken to jail at Philadelphia.
 On account of the great excitement in the small village following the Kill ing, and telephonic communication pe- difficult to secure at Beirne, we are unable to give detailed story Of the shooting-or the causes, if any, that led to the tragedy. It is said, however that James was evidently suffering 2 diseased brain, since there is no knowl' edge of any personal differences ol hard feeling existing between the slay CT and the slain.
 That James is demented, is believed from the fact that on two occasions II .e past he was incarcerated in tht State Hospital for Nervous Diseases MT. Shaver and his son were highly respected citizens of Reirne, and th' plotting out of their lives was grea shock to the community.

SAVE YOUR WAR STAMPS.

A report was circulated by some one either through ignorance or malice, that the Republican party when 1t comes into power on March 4th, would at once cause to be cancelled the war debt," and thereby, according to the report, render worthless any and all Liberty bonds and War Savings stamps" that may be in the hands of the purchasers. Such report is pre- posterous, absurd, and without the slightest semblance of truth or authen- ticity.
 The man or woman who is fortunate enough to be holder of Liberty bonds or War Savings stamps should not part with them unless in very great need q the money, because they represent an investment as safe as the United States government can offer.
 When any person comes to you with the story that your bonds or stamps will be mo good" after certain date you should report the name of that per son to the postmaster at once.
 Save your bonds and stamps, and let them grow interest on your wise ana patriotic investment.
