German scientists are perfecting the
coke. The Ruhr process is a great
advance over others that have been
developed by reason of the fact that
only ordinary pressure and medium
temperature are required. All the
products of the oil industry, from gaso-
line to solid paraf1n, are extracted
directly in pure condition. Five tons

The Moves children attended The Island"
public schools just as did the other residents
Of that section Of Washington, and participated
in the spelling bees and the other school ac-
tivities, and at least one Of their names is
recorded in the school reports for winning q
much-coveted prize when he was only q few
months over IL years of age This was the
older Of the children, Theodore w. Noyes, who
in 1870 won the Kendall Scholarship in Column
bian now George Washington, University. This
scholarship was provided for by Amos J. Ken
dali several years before his death, and in his
win he left to the university 5000 for the
purpose of founding a scholarship TO be given
by the trustees Of the public schools TO the most
meritorious pupil. Those pupils who had pre-
viously won this prize were Charles p c. Scott,
Andrew A. Lipscomb and W. H. Singleton.
Mr.. Noyes took advantage OF the opportunity
10 attend Columbian University, from which
he graduated with the degree Of M. A. In 1877,
and later attended the law department Of the
same university, receiving the degrees Of LII. B.
In 1882 and LII. M the following year.
When Mr. Noyes won the scholarship referred
to he was attending the Male Grammar School,
John e. Thompson, teacher, the building then
being ON Sixth street southwest between d and
streets, where the. Jefferson Building Is now
located. Some Of the other good boys who at
tended the same grammar school and received

ruary 81, 1908, Henry WatterSon, the great
Kentucky editor, said:

at 7:3O O'Clock in the evening Thomas Mare
had reason to know that repOsing In the upper
right-hand drawer In the bed room Of Theodore
Longman would be . bundle Of bank notes
amounting to $3.50. At O'Clock Of that
Christmas eve Thomas Mare had reason to
know that most Of the household would be
assembled in the great lower hall helping to
prepare q great Christmas tree for little Miss
Matilda Longman, age IL.
A r ii o'clock according to custom, Theodore
Longman would retire to his bed room, turn
ON his reading lamp for an hour or two before
he fell asleep. At ! O'Clock the Waterman Of
the grounds, good-natured Mishman named
Curry, would be down at the third gardeners
little cottage for q tweak Of midnight eggnog.
That was the hour upon which Thomas Mare
staked and staked hard.
Ironically, every move on, the cheSs-board
was precisely as Thomas Mare had planned.
Not slip-up, not break in the chain Of
events. The Christmas tree stood bright and
magnificent in the hallway, decorated and
shimmering by 10 O'Clock. At IL Theodore
Longman was stretched out in his bed his
night-lamp burning and q stack Of magazines
under his fingers. At IL o'clock that night
lamp clicked out. At / o'clock Curry with the
goOd-natured air Of indulging In unforbidden
fruit, was sitting in the third gardeners cot-
tage drinking eggnog. At 10 minutes past l
Thomas Mare with sdashlght in his hand
and his cap pulled down over his face was
standing beside an open drawer in the bed
room Of Theodore Longman who was snoring.
There was the bundle Of bank notes with q
rubber band around it precisely as he had
known it would bel And for the life of him,
to his degradation to his humiliation, to his
self-loathing, Thomas Mare could not lift out
that bundle Of bank notes Not for the life OF
him, not for the soul Of him. And so, im-
potently, blinded with rage, sitting with hui
initiation, the figure Of Thomas Mare leaving
the bank roll, turned and tiptoed from the
chamber Of Theodore Longman.
TT was along about breakfast time on Christ
mas day. just when Thomas Mare, sunk in
the abjectneSs and shame Of he knew not what,
was beginning to dread the little breakfast table
circle Of the frustrated faces Of his wife and
children, that the summons came.
Theodore Longman, waiting IN the panelled
study Of his Georgian house ON the hin, in-
formed him that at triple his salary Mare was
to become general superintendent over the
premises $50 - g - ra
What Longman did not add was that at
