Ktn n 110 cold Dleca found Its war

Fortr-nlnlh street nnd the Rchuylklll, once,
nr.d that $10 cold piece Is reputed to have
stopped it etrIRe,
It Went down In ths history of the com-

much excited oter the fading; of the money
that they forgot all nbout tho strike nnd de

(10 cold pleco wns lost on a table in a
hotel and thrown out with the food.
Tha piano spoken of by Mr. Cooper In
tilling of tho "finds" ot tho reduction
plant, was n child's toy piano, which had
been thrown into mo caruage Keuie in
, stMd ot tho nahcan.
Employes at tha reduction plant may
hate any silver from prlvata homes which
they find. It Is theirs and no questions
uked, according to tha officials ot tho com
pany, wh6 declare that If tha liousewlfo Is
enreleis she will hao to bear the conse
quences, for they say It Is Impossible to
Attempt to trace tha silver to Us owners.
Jn case of hotels and club, however, n.
sceclal man Is delegated to look after the
silver, and when powilblo nnd the allicr Is In
decent enough condition to mako tho return
feasible, the property Is sent back to the

"Garbage Is much wore Interesting and
much less sloppy subject than most people
, would think," said 11. D, Bcaston, presi
dent of tho Penn Reduction Company, when
showing ft reporter to the mammoth plant
0(1 the Schuylkill, whero tho garbage rrom
a city ot nearly 2,000,000 Is transformed
from potato peels nnd meat scraps Into
sterilised crease for soaps and a filler for
fertilizer.
"The thine which nstontshes most people,
who go through the plant," ho said, ns he
led the way through tho labyrinth of ma
chinery, "is the fact that tho process Is so
complicated nnd that everything Is an sani
tary and clean. They alt expect to find
an evil-smelling, dirty place nnd everything
In a fearlUl condition. Uut, things are ns
clean here as In a bakery, nccordlng to one
of tho Philadelphia, bakery Inspectors, who
told us ho wished that nil bakeries were
e-a dean. Mnny people think that all that
la dono m a garDago reduction plant is just
to dump all the things In a kettle, boll
them and get oft tho grease. -They have
no Idea of tha thousands of dollars' worth
of machinery used In such a process. They
do not know that It Is a science, nnd a diffi
cult one, to got the products from the
garbage. Another thing: people think that
wo make gold dollars out here in fact.
just coin money. Well, we do not. Every
thing has gone up no that It Is hard even
to make the plant pay, let alono make much
money."
The process through which garbage goes
la long and complicated and tnkes many
hours and the work of 400 employes. After
collection It Is cither taken to the plant In
wagona or on scows, n is loaueu on n.
great endless belt, and taken first to the
digesters, enormous nlr-tlght vessels In
Men ths garbage Is cooked and steamed
3r nine hours. From there,' It Is put Into
yiinuor presses. Tnero are sixteen or
tieso. They have big rams, which entcrV
iltne presses slowly and squeezo tno liquid
J from the pulp. "When tho squeezing proc
ess Is going on the liquid runs oft Into a
building somo dtstanco away, where the
grease Is skimmed on. The pulp thus left
is taken Into dryers, where the material
becomes a great dry mass. It Is then taken
Into enormous percolators, through which
gasoline Is percolated and tho rest of the
greaso extracted from tho dry mass. The
gasoline .passes through a condenser and
there aro more complicated steps to ex
trt Mho grease, and again to dry the
mate, al made by the garbage itself.
Finally ths material, looking like so much
brown dust. Is loaded on boats and taken
away to be mixed with fertilizer for filler,
while the grease Itself Is taken away to
the soap factories of tho 'nation.
Tho officers of tho Penn Reduction plant
are: President, II. D. Bcaston; secretary
and treasurer, E. M. Cooper; directors, F.

LONDON. Nov. U.
ON FH1ST viewing the realistic pictures
of the battle of the Somme, with their
terrific shell-dre, their fierce bayonet
charges, their hall ot anlpera' bullets and
their hand.to.hand fighting, one asks Im
mediately: What man could bo bold enough
to operato any machine other than his
good rlfto or his machine gunT
Hut the man who filmed death on the
Somme had nothing for his. own defense
except his camera. How either he or his
Instrument returned Intact seems n miracle.
Specially entrusted by the War Odlce
with this work, Mr. O. II. Malins has ob
tained the most wonderful war film ever
shown upon the screen. And In order
to accomplish his task he had to take
risks that een the most reckless Tommy
might well be excused for declining.
VIII 1CU.I1III1K Wltlk UIQ Mlllinil MHI..V.J ...o
nnoui 10 aesiroy a cenain utrinnii uiutit
hoiuo one of n series vhlch the Germans
hive built along the western front dn
order to stem the Allied advances Malins
crept up ft trench to within 12S yards of
the blockhouse nnd fixed tip a little loop
hole so that ho could poke tho lens through
the parapet.
I understand that those particular block
houses aro quite formidable obstacles,
being built of steel nnd reinforced con
crete, with walls moro than threo feet
thick.
In order to smash this particular one, a
Drltlsh 0.2 howltxer was employed, nnd ns
this enormous gun was almost three miles
behind tho front lines (tho exact range must
not bo stated In this article) tho "margin
of error" was about 180 yards.
It will bo-seen from this thnt tho daring
young Malins at 12S yards from the tar
get was well within tho danger zone. If
tho flrnt shot, ns so froquonlly hapens, fell
short, then there was eery possibility of
his being blown to atoms.
Naturally, he was quite alone, since nit
tho soldiers had wlthdrnwn to a sato dis
tance. Presently the great gun roared and n. few
seconds later the shell fell nnd exploded
between him and tho blockhouse. Deafened
by the concussion'' nnd smothered with
debris, ho managed to drag himself and his
machlno Into position again.
Seven times tho shelling was repeated
until tho gunners got the exact range. The
eighth fell square on top ot the blockhouse,
and when tho smoko cleared away there wns
only a hugo crnter whero a moment beforo
tho building had stood.
onrtMANs nrcnr
Immediately, furious at tho British suc
cess, the Germans replied with trench mor
tars nnd whls-bangs. Then a company of
thorn sallied forth, creeping along a com
munication trench to within fifty ynrds of
Malins.
This wns too fine an opportunity for the
cinematograph "fan" to miss, though most
men, knowing that their Inst hour had
come, would have turned nnd fled. Dut not
so he. He set his camera clicking mid
filmed tho Germans ns they camo up 1
Then a. providential thing occurred. The
approaching Gennana caught a glimpse of
tho camera and tripod and mistaking It
for n machine gun scurried back In fright.
Malins, having accomplished his object, also
bolted, but In nn opposite direction.
He wns fired at Incessantly until he
reached his goal, and his tripod wns hit
nnd shattered, but ho nnd his camera
escaped uninjured.
This samo Intrepid gentleman filmed tho
"blowing1' of n mine containing twenty tons
of dynamite. This was the biggest mine
over blown up on the British front nnd
Malins filmed It nt comparatively close
quarters. -
After the mine went up the British
dashed out ot their trenches in a charge
nnd Malins, quite unarmed, ran with them
across No-Mnn's Iand. Ho made for tho
mlno crater, but his camera and apparatus
hampered him and the Germans got there
first He managed to retreat under heavy
fire and filmed the reserves dashing to the
rcscuo ot the British.
Busily turning the handle ot his machine,
he proved a splendid target for the German
snipers. Two bullets passed through his
serlco cap, shells kept bursting all around
him, somo ns close as fifteen nnd twenty
feet, and a flying piece ot shrapnel smashed
the metal top ot the tripod.
TIUrOD BATTnitED UP
81111 he kept on grinding away. Then
nt last a sniper shot one of the tripod's
legs oft and the Intrepid operator had to
dive Into a dugout to fix up a new limb
with a piece ot timber.
v To work n camera on a battlefield Is the
most dangerous of operations, since the
enemy mistakes It for a new type ot ma
chine gun working boldly In the open, nnd
directs tho heaviest fire upon tho offending
'Instrument
The whole length of the Oerman lines
was filmed from nn aeroplane by Malins.
The German antiaircraft guns peppered
him continuously. Leaning over the side
o-Mie aeroplane, he worked his camera
virtually upside down, with shells bursting
dangerously close.
Nothing deterred this tntrepjd young
man. Tho French soldiers called him "the
Mad Irishman," hut his nickname among
the British Tommies explains In one phrase
his marvelous courage "Malins, ot No
Mnn's Land."
