Wealth From Waste Gas.

DY a process of refrigeration there
has been found a way to obtain
exceedingly valuable products from
the natural gas that flows from oil
wells Heretofore the gas has been
allowed to escape into the air, as no
means were at hand to utilize 1t, and
it Is claimed that the enormous
quantity Of 1000. 100000 cubic feet is
going to waste in the oil fields in
the world every day. This is ap-
proximately equal in heat and power
producing qualities to 100000 bush
els of coal.
While the extraction Of gasoline
from natural gas by compression Is
a commercial process well known, but
few as yet have tried the method by
refrigeration. It Is asserted that by
this latter method all the value OF the
gas is secured, while by the other
methods the greater part is lost.
One refrigeration plant of the sort
installed in California is said to have
a daily capacity Of $4,000 cubic feet
of gas, from which high-grade gaso-
line Is extracted at the rate Of two
and a half gallons to 1,S00 feet OF gas.
1t is built on the lines OF six-Aon
ice-making machine. Here the gAa
flows by Its own pressure from cap
ped well through q series Of contain
ers ranging from 15 degrees below
zero, Fehrenheit, down to an exceed
ingly low temperature. In various
containers, each with its different de-
grees Of cold, are precipitated gaso-
line of from so to 81 per cent gravity,
while at the lowest temperature the
exceedingly valuable products. rhigo-
lene, cymogene and methane are OBJ
tained.
Rhigolene is a wonderful product
which has high value. more than IS
per gallon, and Of which marvellous
properties are claimed. 1t has a boil
ing point Of 256 degrees below zero.
and hence possesses great refrigerat-
ing qualities.

When Rothschild Paid.

HERE Is an illustration Of the
tricks in trade to which un-
scrupulous dealers in antiquities will
resort to get large prices for their
wares. The two parties were Aless-
andre Castellani, a clever dealer. and
Baron Adolph Rothschild Of Paris.
Cas- Castellani had a superb en-
amelled ever, with the dish on which
it. stood. The baron, on arriving In
Rome, visited Castellanfs shop and
was shown the enamelled dish and
ever. When everything else had been
inspected Castellani drew from q hid
den cupboard the dish, but not the
ever. The baron was so pleased
with the dish that he agreed to buy
the lot of which it was a part. The
baron paid heavily, lamenting that
there was no ever to stand on the
dish and departed for Florence.
There he was visited by an agent
who told him of an old lady who
wished to sell several beautiful ma
jolica pieces. He visited her house
and was disappointed, as the majolica
was not fine enough. The old lady,
seemilgly chagrined. left the room to
order refreshments. and the baron saw
through the open door Of a bedroom
ever, covered by glass shade, on
which rested wreath Of immortelles.
When the lady returned the baron
asked permission to examine the ever.
It was brought out and the baron
saw that the enamel was of the same
work as that Of the dish he had
bought. He wished, however, to be
certain that the foot of the ever

The baron went back to his rooms.
had the dish unpacked and found
that the foot of the ever fitted per-
fectly. The next day the baron sent
the agent to offer the old lady a
princely sum for the ever. He
brought back refusal to sell. But
at last the Widows scruples were
overcome.
Castellani had planned the whole
affair.

PRESIDENT
ADDRESSES CODY CLUB

The members of the Cody club
enjoyed a splendid talk by Pres
ident A. G. Crane of the Wyoming
university at the luncheon Monday,
Mr.. Crane having spent the week
end in the Buffalo Bill country.
Mr.. Crane spoke very compliment
tary of his impressions of the Cody
country and said that he was re-
turing to the southern part of the
state one of its boosters. He had
enjoyed himself on Sunday in the
Shoshone forest on the Northfork
and enthused over the eastern en-
trance to Yellowstone. He is a
real fellow and Cody will be pleased
to see him more frequently in the
future.
Particularly did he compliment
the club upon its woman member
ship, by saying, that to him. this
<emed a very forward step. He
made a very strong talk for CO.
operation of the business men of a
community and for the coordination
of their strength to put ACROSS the
big problems which .confronts all
business and social centers. He
said the community clubs of towns
n cities were usually the genesis
of most of the big things which
are accomplished. Most public en-
terprises are born within the bodies
of these organizations and although
at times it would seem that little
were being accomplished, yet the
amount of good which comes from
the association of the. townspeople
at these gatherings is of inestimable
value to the community.
In speaking of the Wyoming uni
versity Mr.. Crane was discoursine
on a subject which holds his most
intense interest. He painted a vivid
picture of the many attractions of
the Wyoming educational institu-
ton and urged a 100 per cent
support of every man, woman and
child in the state to it. He declared
hat it was the only school in the
world which was boosting for Wv
oming. That 1t was the only uni
versity in the world which was
working wholly on Wyoming prob
lens, and hat with the support
from the people of Wyoming that
1t was entitled to it would become
within a very few years one of the
leading institutions of its kind in
the west.
