Tortured by robbera who Bought $1,000 which they knew he had received, William Hartley, an old farmer of Olenwood, Pa., is In a serious condition. The burglars beat their victim until he was almost unconscious, and then placed his bare feet on a red-hot plowshare. Hartley Is one of the best-known men In the vicinity of Olenwood, and is oomfortablv well of. A few days ag' he received $1. 000 for a lar Dock -f sheep. Not wishing to heap such a ,'rgo amount Df moii"; in his hom. u id bring wme that many persons haii known f his sale, he sent his daughter to Monrose with Instructions to deposit the cash In bank and return tj the farm the following day. That evening three masked men knocked at the door of the Hartley farmhouse. When the door was Dpened they rushed in, leveled re volvers at the head of the old man xnd demanded the $1,000. "I sent It to bank," replied Hart ey. "That's a lie. Show us where It is concealed or we will kill you," ame the retort. In vain Hartley protected that he iv as telling the truth. A blow on :he head convinced the farmer that the robbers were desperate, and he :rled that he was telling the truth. While one of the men guarded lilm the other two ransacked tne house, but failed to find the money. "We'll burn you alive unless you ?lvo us that money," shouted one of tils assailants. Then one man went outside and sot the plowshare. It was placed In the fire and heated. The scrorinilug farmer was dragged to the hearth ind his bare feet pressed to the red hot surface. He cried for mercy, but he thieves did not"heed him. Finally. In his agony he fnin'erl, and the hot Iron was removed.

"The fu ture annual coal production In Penn sylvania will continue for many years at probably 200,000 tons," says Chief of Mines James E. Roderick In his report on the mining Industry of the Keystone State which has Just been Issued. "It Is estimated that 7,000, 000,000 tons still remain unmlned in the anthracite region and in the bituminous region. While no esti mates have been made, the supply at the present rate of consumption will no doubt last several hundred years." "The Pennsylvania mining Indus try Is in most excellent condition," continues Chief Roderick. "The equipment and management of most of the mlnps are up to dale, and great effort has been made In recent years to render the mines safe. The record of 1907 in the coal trade was especially remarkable. The produc tion In Pennsylvania reached the un usual volume of 23K.61 r.49 net tons of which the bituminous region pro duced 149, BBS, 047 tons and the an thracite region 86.056,412. The production Is five times as great as that of any State In the I'nlon and over 83 per cent, of the tonnage of Oreat Britain. The tonnage of the world Is estimated at 1 .?00.300,000 tons for 1907.

TJncle Sam, en riched $5 00,000,000 by the provisions of the Aldrlch-Vreeland currency bill, now has so much money on hand that he cannot wait for the construction ot new vaults In the Treasury Building, but has rented rooms in a storage building and placed relays of guards on the Inside and outside. This vast amount of money may never be used, but so large a sum is necessary to supply the 6824 national banking In stitutions in the United States in case of a financial stringency. Deputy Treasurer Bentz reported that the available cash reserve in the Treasury was $190,000,000, the high est figure it has reached this year. He is of the opinion that the possi bility of a stringency this year is over, and that the crops can be moved with- j out the slightest difficulty. "Condi tions are vastly different this year," he said, "not only in New York, but throughout the country. New York banks have millions and millions of surplus1 on hand, while a year ago they were struggling with scarcely j the legal requirements. Money, in stead of being In great demand at ' high prices, is very easy on call at from three-fourths to one per cent. In the West the banks are all well supplied with currency, and will be able to do more than their usnal share toward moving the crops. From i every direction signs ot increased prosperity are seen. Small bills are In great demand, which is always a good sign." VILAS PLANS A $30,000,000 GIFT Leaves Estate in Trust to Multiply For Wisconsin University. Death Of Captain Eiscnbtso.

Prediction of an Knalneer of the Ideological survey-He nelleve Oaa Entlnea win Be Installed In Naval Vessel In the Next Few Years, Wblcta Will Make Them Smokeleta, Noiseless Craft and Reduce Coal Bill. Washington, D. C. The war vessel of the future will be a swift, smoke less, nolselesB craft, lying low in the water, with every vulnerable part be low the water line, the entire deck being for the work of the guns. There will be no smoke, because there will be no smokestacks. In the night time there will be nothing to betray the- presence of this Invincible fight ing demon to the enemy. This prediction was made by Rob ert Heywood Fernald, mechanical en gineer, who has for several years been connected with the fuel investi gations of the United States Geologi cal Survey. Mr. Fernald believes that the gas engine, or Internal com bustion motor, as It Is called by engi neers, will be installed In naval ves sels of tho United States within the next few years. "I expect to see the United States ahead of every other nation in this innovation," said Mr. Fernald. "The gas engine, in my opinion. Is feasible on any vessel because of Its economy over the steam engine, but it Is espe cially desirable on the fighting ship for the reason that It makes no smoke. The gas is generated in a producer which has no chimney and needs none. The coal Is turned di rectly into gas, which goes straight to the engine. "The elimination of the smoke is sufficient to call for the installation of the gas engine, yet there are many other features in Its favor. The ves sel would have a free deck for the play of Its big guns. There would be no towering stacks to be punctured or destroyed, thus crippling the boat. Then it would be unnecessary to carry as much cobI, for the same power can be developed with one tblrd less than the steam engine uses. The gas producer and the gat engine would take up less room and weigh less than the same powei Scotch boiler and steam engine. The vessel would have a radius of trave" far greater than at present. "Of course I do not expect to see the gas engine confined to the use ol the navy. The fact that it show such economies will compel Its instal lation in all sorts of vessels. One o the big Items of expense to a morteri: ocean liner Is its coal bill. These vessels will consume 10,000 tons ol high grade coal on a round trip. With the gas engine this could be reduced to 6000 or 7000 tons, a saving ol several thousand dollars. "One of the big steamship compa nies of the great iakes Is about take the Initiative in this movement. Plans have made for a freighter that will uso a 2000 horse power gas eu glne. This company is making the experiment to teBt the economy of the gas engine over the steam engine." The United States Geological Sur vey has been experimenting with the gas producer and gas engine for sev eral years and has demonstrated that this type of engine In a stationary plant Is capable ot generating from twice to three times as much power from a given amount of coal as the steam engine. It has also shown that the gas engine can develop more pow er from a low grade coal. The purpose of the Government has not been to develop the gas engine, but to increase the efficiency of the coal supply of the country, which is now being depleted. The Govern ment spends $10,000,000 yearly for coal, and it was primarily to tet the best results from this expenditure that the investigations of the gas pro ducer and gas engine was tsken up.

Seattle Post-Intelligencer. BORAX IN THE DAIRY. A Matter of Profitable Interest to the Farmer and Dairyman. The problem of keeping sweet all the utentils used In connection with milk and cream selling, and butter makln?. has been a serious one wltb the farmer. He has come to realize fully that the slightest taint or hint of stateness loft in a can, tin or churn may ruin a whole output; that tho taint which is left Is In the form of bacteria which grow and multiply In mlik or butter, producing disastrous results. The farmer has learned that hot water won't rinse away the greasy residuo in dairy utensllf. He has learned that soap leaves a residue of its own which is, If any thing, worse than the milk or cream residue, and it is little wonder that there has been a constant clamor for a dairy cleanser and sweetener thai will meet modern, requirements. A few of the largest creamery es tablishments have called experts Into consultation on this problem and have with this scientific aid hit upon a product of nature which exactly Alls the bill borax. Scientists have long known borax as a cleanser, a sweetener and an antiseptic destroyer of bacteria and germ growths. Destroys all that s harmful and promotes and preserves freshness, sweetness and puilty, re lieving the dairyman and dairy house wife of drudgery and of noedless work and worry. Its cheapness and value should gl-e it first place In the necessities of every dairy. The cow's udder is kept in a clean, healthy and smooth condition by washing it with borax and water, a tablespoonful of borax to two quarts of water. This prevents roughness and sore ness or cracking teats, which make milking time a dread to tbe cow and a worry to the milker. The modern cleanser of all dairy utensils consists of one tablespoon ful of borax to every quart of water needed. Remember a tablespoonful equals four teaspoontuls. He sure that you get pure borax. To be sure, you must get "20 Mule Team Horax." All dealers.

It Is believed that a large saving of expense, especially for transportation of coal, can thua be effected. It is intended to dis tribute the power over a wide terri tory direct from the mouth of the mines. The distance from the plant to Indianapolis will bo about 100 miles. This will Involve a small loss of power In transmission, repairing, according to the calculation, an in crease of about 10 per cent. In tbe nmount of con! consumed above what It would be If the coal were burned at tbe points where the power la used. But the saving In other re spects Is exported to much more than counter-balance this slight disadvantage. Morn proof thnt Lyrlia E.
