May REDUCE COST OF SILK
fected Machine That Has Posi-
tbiIities Of Importance.

Silk thas always been considered an
article of luxury on account Of it's
high cost in comparison with other
textile materials, writes United States
Commercial Attache n. G. .MacLean
from Rome. This has been due in
large degree to the labor necessary in
handling the cocoons and preparing
the thread for spinning. Consequent
~ the silk industry has hourished only
in countries where cheap labor is avail
able.
After soaking the cocoons in water
the thread has always been unreeled
by hand, which is a work Of great del
icacy, but one for whtch it has not
been possible to pay high wages. Thus,
while silk weaving in Italy has been
making progress the preparation Of
the raw silk has shown a decline. It
is now reported that an Italian silk
expert has succeeded in perfecting a
machine which will perform the opera
ton of unreeling the thread mcchani-
cally.. "A new company has recently
been formed, which has taken over
the patents covering the invention and
will manufacture the machines.
If the invention succeeds CONNER
cially as well as it has in the expert
ments that have been made it bids
fair to revolutionize the silk industry,
and, according to the inventor, the
cost of silk may be reduced to such
an extent that it will be able to COM
pete with cotton and linen.

GOT HUBBY AT A BARGAIN
ton Worth the Expenditure In
volved in the Case.

A business man who wanted a book
keeper stated his need in an advertiser
ment. The notice was seen by a young
woman who was out of work and who
had searched for employment day
after day without success. She had
just one cent left. This she spent for
a postal card, on which she wrote a
reply to the advertisement and dropped
the card in a street letter box.
Her application impressed the bust
ness man favorably, and he wrote to
her asking her to call at his office.
She did SO and secured the position.
Her modesty and worth, no less
than her capability, so won her en-
ployer that before many months had
passed he offered her his heart and
hand, and she accepted and became
his wife.

ing the honeymoon, "that it all came
from your spending your last cent for

Engineering Triumph.

Engineering Triumph.
By the use of out-of-the-or ordinary
methods engineers charged with the
difficult task of enlarging the bore Of
series Of muchused railway tunnels
were able to carry on their work with
out interfering with the movement Of
trains, which in some cases totaled
sixty-seven a day. The problem of the
engineers was to enlarge these pass
ageways to q minimum width of six
teen feet On tangent, and seventeen
feet on a curve, and minimum over
head clearance of % feet, and to line
the bores with reinforced concrete, all
work to be done without interruption
Of traffic. This situation was met by
the construction Of steel forms twenty
feet in length, which were mounted on
tracks Of their own, so that they could
be moved along as fast as the concrete
had set. Instead Of delivering the con-
crete by any of the more usual means,
it was decided to deliver the concrete
pneumatically, the material being
blown through pipe by machinery,
located at convenient point outside
the tunnel-Popular Mechanics Mag

The Cyclone.

The Cyclone.
Two bad storms visited this vicinity
last week. Ten buildings were de-
stroyed and others partially wrecked,
but no lives were lost and few are IN
jured The first storm struck the vii
lage between 8 and $50 o'clock on Fri
day evening and did considerable
damage to property. The St. Anthony
& Dakota elevator lost it's roof and
was otherwise damaged The storm
blew in the plate glass window on the
south side of Jesmer's department
store, and damaged the store to quite
an extent. The windows in the Sec
ond story of the Head building were
also blown in and the family was
obliged to seek other quarters for the
night. The climax was reached Satur-
day afternoon when funnel-shaped
cloud appeared in the southwest
travelling directly toward the village.
Citizens saw it from near Blue Mound
and watched it approach. When about
a mile and half below town the
storm veered to more easterly course
and the village was thus spared. The
house on the Mcclellan farm, which
lay in the path Of the storm, was COM
pletely demolished. The occupants Of
the house, Mr.. and Mrs. Will Stead
man and child, escaped by retreating
to the cellar. The home of August
Olson in Wyanett was also destroyed,
but Mr.. Olson and his family escaped
injury by taking refuge in the cellar.
The total loss caused by the storm is
estimated at about $500.

Engineers To Start
Work on Power Line

Engineers for the Georgia
Alabama Power Company ar
rived in Leesburg today and will
start at once to survey the Power
line from here to Americas.
From what information we are
able to gather the line will go by
way of Smithyille which will be
good news to the people of that
thriving little city and when the
connection is made they will
have the same service that of
Albany. Americas, [leesburg and
the other towns will have with
the Power Company. This new
line will give Leesburg a much
larger per cent of power and will
also be a good inducement to
manufacturing enterprises as
there will be power available to
run any size manufacturing in
dustry.

and was called by citizens who
was put out of the Jury box at

Jury Commissioners.
1t seems that much dissatis-

are going to petition the Judge

the Jury box be opened and re-
vised again
1t is understood that recently
the jury commissioners of the
county struck the names of about
200 citizens, many of them well
known and some of them our
most prominent, off the jury list
and took them out of the jury
box.
Talks were made by a number
of our people on both sides those
in and out of the box, also three
of our attorneys made addresses
and offered any assistance they
could give in settled and in a
satisfactory way to everybody.
