which it was held that thc sale was in valid because the town asse.Msors did nfot properly describe the property. Without the special leRislatlon asked tax salea InvolvlnR $600,000 received
pointment was expressed, however, be , . ,...,... .i.
caus,r-the I'resldwit made no reference Tom this salo .might be lost to the tb'that part of the appeal which asked , *'*'"°*^' for a halt in thn niival appropriations until the .stop for disarmament had been taken.
On the whole, however, the delegation felt that tbe President ia looking upon thc latter serlou.sly and with a view to bringing about tho ilcsirnl condition of affairs.

Aa a matter of fact when sound dead trees are sawed Into lumber nnd the weath¬ ered or charred outalde Is cut awny, there Is no metliod known to the Unit¬ ed States forest prodnct.s laboratory by which the Inndjor can be dlstln- Kut8he<1 from that cut from live trees, Bxcept that the lumber from dead treen may he partly flensoned when sawed. All the Infonnntlori nvntlable «t the laboratory Indlcnte.s that timbor cut from Insect or flre-kllled trees Is Just as good for any structural puriKi.se a* tljnt ont from live tree.s of fdnillar qnalltj', providing the wood has not been siihsefiuently In.lnrod by decoy or further Insect attack.
Another bill providing for the sale of • property for unpaid taxea on July 1 of eajjjjn»'ear Is also awaiting the .signa. turo of Governor Miller. Thla is the mea.<iure aaked for by County Treasurer S William E. I..uyster because under the 'old law little time was allowed for the preparations for the aale.
Still another bill which relates to the l>ondlng of clerk.s in the County Treas urer's offlce Is al.so before the Oovorn. oi Wivlting for, his 'signature.

mont the Portion of Thlnkere in
the Sixteenth Century.
They had a rough nnd ready way of dealing with spiritualists In the six¬ teenth century. An act was placed on the statute book in the reign of Queen Mary which mude It a capital offense tor many persons "to propose to hold coumiunlcatlons with the dead," and later the penalty for such an offense was made burning at the stake.
Ia 1,''>20 a man named Edward Bar¬ ber, who lived at Ongar In Essex, was ordered by a locnl magistrate to be put In the stocks for three days, and subsequently to stand for trial for pi'etending thnt he had received mes¬ sages from a dead person, nnd "for telling divers persons that he had done so."
This luckless splrltunllst, however,
was never sent for trial, as on the
' Inst night of his conflneraent In the
stocks he was burned to death by
some of the vlllngers.
In the reign of Queen Anne a man named ProUiero wns sentenced to Im¬ prisonment for life for writing a pam¬ phlet proving that communication with the dead was possible; and even so late as the reign of Oeorge I there are records of severe punishments being indicted on people who professed that they bad received messages from the dead.
In the reign of James I a Dutch mer¬ chant named Kolep, living In London, was sent to the Tower fot alleging that during a bad Illness he had actu¬ ally died and that his soul had passed for two hours in the world beyond, when it returned to hla body.
Kolep was deprived of hl-s property and was sentenced to Imprisonment for life. He esfnped from prison, bow- ever, and roanag«Hl to make his wajr back to his native country, where he afterwards pxtbllshed a book givinf the experiences of his \-l8lt to tlm world beyond the grave.—Stray Btoriea.
WHEN IN DANGER OF FIRE
Walk, bu^t Don't Run, In Burning
Building or In Buslneaa Frenzy
—Keep Cool.
When some one shotits "Flre I" in a theater those most likely to be tram¬ pled down are those who start a wild stampede. .Those who keep their heada and act rationally stand better chance of escaping 4njury," remarks Forbes Magazine. The cry of "Flro!" was re¬ cently raised In the business world and started a stampede in many quar¬ ters. Now, It c|pnot be doubted that the war time frenzied boom bas reached Its zenith and thnt prices are moving downward. It remains to be seen, however, whether it was wise to attempt to force goods on the market at greatly reduced prices and to can¬ cel orders for fresh supplies on the assumption that producers would also cut their prices drastically In a mad effort to get from under. It is worth noting that woolen, stide, silk, and certain other manufacturers promptly curtailed operations, thus, refusing to guuiblo to the limit in futures. If pro¬ duction be curtailed on all sides, then some merchants may flnd that they overplayed the cancellation game. Goods cannot be produced f6r some little time nt nny tremendously lower cost than formerly because It takes time for raw materials, labor, taxes and ^her expenses to fall drastically.
The advice prominently printed on New York thenter programs Is: "In case of flre walk to the nearest exit. Don't run."
This advice might be worth heeding by the business cominunlty at thi* motceiih

OLD TANNERS DID GOOD WORK
Leather Made In China 3,000 Years Ago Has Been .Found In Compara¬ tively Good Condition.
Originally skins were cured by sim¬ ply cleaning and drying. Then It wns found tho text\ire of the leather was Improved by the use of smoke, sour milk, various oils and the brnli^ of nnlmals themselves. Later It was dis¬ covered that certain astringent barks nnd vegetables effected permanent changes In the texture of skins nnd stopped decay. The hnclent Egyptians possessed thi.s knowledge, for engrav¬ ings on their tombs depict the process of tanning. In China specimens of leather have been discovered In com¬ pany with otlier relics that prove them to be more than 3,000 years old. The Ilomnns used leather which they tanned with oil, alum and bark. Enrly explorers In America found the In- dinns wearing skins prep:ir^d with buffalo dunj, oil and dlny.
No Improvement "III thrt ger.erat methods o^ preparing leather took placo from the most primitive times until about 1790. when the u.se of lime to loosen the hnir was Introduced. By 1825 English tanners were attempt¬ ing to Introduce new methods by which the' tnnning urocess eould bo .tcned. One of tlie pioneers In
.ese experiments was John Burridge, .he Inventor of the bartforaeter, nn In¬ strument for detefmining the strength of tnnning liquors.

A few years ago a noted physician | told his audience that the day was not j far distant when sound would bt> seen I and color heard, und time has con- • ^rmed his statement. It seem* In-'. credible that a beam of Mght can pro¬ duce sound, yet it luis been accom¬ plished by throwing a ray of surdlght , through a lens on a glass, vessel con- j taining lamt>blac!c. or colored silk or j worsted, or any similar substance. A I disk having silts or openln.s.s cut in it | te made to revolve swiftly «n the beam j of light so as to "out It up" Into alter- } nate flashes of light and shadow. I When the ear Is place<l to the gl«s« ; vessel the sensitive ear can distinguish | strange, faint seunds ns long ns tho flnshing beam falls mjon the ves.oel. ;

The disk Is turned j so that lhe colorM Mght of Uie rnlu- j bow passes through It and Is aUemnte-1 ly interrupted and tmn8mltle<l by It. | Now, If the ear be plnced to tho glasa: Tessel containing the silk or other ma¬ terial.

If the glns.i vessel contains rod wor- ste<l nnd the green light Is flashed up¬ on It, there will l>e conipnrjatlvely loud sounds, and when the red and blue parts of the rainbow fall upon the vessel there will be fnint sounds; bnt otiii'r colors will produce no sounds nt all.

You have been thinking for the past few weeks of ordering screens for your windows and porches. It ia now time to act. A week of warm weather will bring the flies and mosquitoes.
We make and install screens to flt your windows and porches. There are points of difference in our screens, to which we would like to call your attention.
FRAMES are made of one and one-eighth inch white pine with mortised and tenoned comers. The joints are glued and further secured with lock pins. Wire is attached to the frame without the use of tacks, u.sing a special .style of material which we manufac¬ ture ourselves. We give the frames two coats of paint before putting on the wire so that no part of the frame is unprotected. For in.stalling porch screens we use a special molding of our own manufacture between each frame, which effectually .seals each connection. We u.se sheradized invisible top hangers on window screens and for, your convenience put a number tack on each screen frame and a duplicate number on each window frame.
Having the facilities of a complete woodworking plant, we are able to make quality screens in such quantity as to insure prompt attention to your order.
Let us estimate on your work now. We also make and install porch enclosures and metal weather strips.

More than $700,000,000 was spent last year for newspaper advertising by mer¬ chants arid mannfactnrers
