Mrs. Josephine Lamb. and six chill
dren; sister. Mrs. James M. Dono-
van of Los Angeles. Cal: and his
step-father. Peter McEwen. who is

ILLEGAL POSSESSION AND SENTENCES
WIFE BEATER TO SERVE 80 DAYS IN IAIL

George Giroux of this city was
found guilty of illegal possession and
sentenced to pay fine of $3.50 with
costs of $50 and to serve 4 months
in Jail by Judge Cony in Municipal
court, Wednesday. This case was
continued from November 10, when
the testimony for the state was pre-
sented by Deputy Sheriffs William ],
Cole. Carl +. Fellows. and Harry
flnKham, VINO on a whirlwind visit
to the National Home vicinity where
Giroux lives had that morning un-
earthed two pints of alcohol, alleged
to belong to the respondent.
Glroux was represented in court
Yesterday morning by Attorney Bur-
leigh Martin. One new witness for
the state was heard in the case, We'd
nesday. Thomas Quincy who lives
near Glroux's place, testified thot on
the evening before the day of the
visit by the sheriffs, he saw Giroux
make a sale of a bottle of liquor to
man in the dooryard in front of
the Giroux house. In cross eXamina-
ton Attorney Martin asked the witt
ness a series of questions which evil
IDENTIFY were intended to disclose a
plot whereby the liquor was plant
ed" on Giroux. Though the witness
was somewhat uncertain on several
points, he was emphatic on the point
that he had seen the respondent sell
the bottle of liquor
Two witnesses were called in de-
tense, who as neighbors of GirouX's
testified that they had never obser-
we'd anything out of the way about
his place and that to their knowledge
he had never sold liquor. Judge
Cony decided that the man was
guilty of the charge against him and
pronounced sentence. An appeal
was taken and bonds furnished in
the sum of $3.50 for Giroux's appear.

Mercury and

Schenectady, Dec. 5 "a. P.)-Power
from mercury Vapor, making posi-
BILE double vapor power plant In
which turbines for generating cleo
tricity are driven both by mercury
vapor and water vapor from the same
fuel source resulting in gain of
about so percent in power per pound
Of fuel, is the outstanding achieve
ment Of a new boiler perfected by
the General Electric Company.
The last great step in improving
the efficiency of manufacturing power
was the replacement of the reci-
procating engine by the steam tur-
bine. The invention of the mercury
vapor boiler is regarded as a greater
step in the progress of science.
The modern steam turbine is about
40 percent more efficient than the
best reciprocating engines, but &C
cording to w. L. r. Emmett, consult
ing engineer for the General Electric
Company and inventor of the new
process, the mercury boiler is more
than so percent more efficient than
the best steam turbine. The mercury
boiler is still considered an expert
ment, but like all great steps in ad-
vance. time will be required to de-
velop and perfect a system before
this process can be expected to re-
feet on the operating costs of public
utilities.
Mr.. Emmett estimates. that If the
mercury boiler comes up to all ex-
pectations, it will produce with 35
pounds gauge pressure, when COM
pared with a steam turbine general
ing plant which uses 200 pounds
steam pressure, about 50 percent
more output in electricity per pound
of fuel. And it," Mr.. Emmett adds,
: Tin such a plant the boiler room is
re-equipped with furnaces and mer-
curry apparatus arranged to burn Is
percent more fuel, the station
capacity with the same steam tur-
bines, condenserS, auXiliaries, water
circulation, etc. would be increased
about so percent"
The mercury Vapor process in
wolves the Vaporization of mercury in
boiler, driving of turbine by the
mercury vapor and the condensation
of the exhaust in condenser where
its latent heat is delivered to water
and thus used to generate steam at
pressure suitable for use in existing
steam plants.
Naturally" Mr. Emmett explained,
the question which will arise in Ccn-
nection with this mercury process is
the danger from mercurial poisoning.
either to the community or 10 the
attendants. In the first place, all

MISTAKES IN PRINTING

typographical errors, sometimes of
ridiculous nature, are often encoun-
tered in newspapers, due largely to
the haste with which newspapers are
put together. With ten thousand
things correct, one error-the trans
position of two letters or the omission
OF word, or the misplacing of a
line OF type-stands out conspicuously
In the printed page.
Magazines, with their expert proof

readers, and the opportunity afford
ed for frequent revision, before being
printed and distributed, are not sup
posed to make errors. Or rather, an
error in a newspaper is much more
excusable than is an error in a mag
azine.
A certain amount of satisfaction,
therefore, is to be derived by those
who have a hand in the making of
newspapers, from the following editor
ial paragraph which appeared in the
November issue of the Worlds Work,
one of the really high-grade maga-
zines of America:
In the September issue of the
Worlds Work was published what
purported to be picture of the
Hon. Carl Sherman, attorney gen.
eral of New York state. The cap
tion under the picture should have
read: Ex-Governor r. A. Cooper,
of South Carolina, recently ap-
pointed chairman of the Federal
Land Bank board at Washington"
Newspaper makers should really be
leased to know that the Worlds
York got things twisted in such an
bsurd way. Typographical errors in
ewspapers will not seem so outstand-
g as heretofore.
