IMPORTANT INVENTION IN MOULDING PROCESS Timothy Holland, of New York City, Who Is Interested In the Carbon dale Metal Working Company. Has an Invention That Promises to Revolutionize Moulding1 Success fully Tested at the New Foundry. What the Invention Is. A process, which Ik declared by ex perts to bo the greatest advance made In the Iron moulding Industry In yearn, was brought lo ii successful point in (.'urboudale tills wetk, at the plant of the Carbondale Metal Working com pany, thtt city's new Interest. The process in the Invention of Tim othy Holland, of New York city, one of the most conspicuous figures in the iron moulding Industry, of this coun try, for the hist quarter of a century. Sir. Holland Is temporarily residing In 4'arbondale, by reason of the interest lie holds In the CnrbondnlH Metal Working company. Mr. Holland's idea Is a mixture, or combination, of combustible chemicals, which is poured In solution over the sand that Is used in moulding', for the purpose of overcoming' the bus hydro Ken gas that of necessity forms when the molten metal comes in contact with the moist clay of the bed of the pat tern that is in the mould. Any person, who has visited u foundry and ob served, even casually, the work of oast-iiij- a mould, will remember how the moulding box (Hied with gas so soon as the hot metal was run Into it. He will also recall that he heard a miniature 'xploainu and saw the aas shoot out In Hinall (lames through the escape holes in the moulding box. These holes, he will remember, as being lold, were there for that identical purpose of per mitting an escape of gas, otherwise there would be an explosion of such force as to ceml the moulding box, or llask, (lying about the shop. Xow, Mr. Holland's process prevents the forma tion of these gases. It Is mixed over the core sand in sufficient Mttuii titles that every grain is moist with the solu tion. As the solution Is made up of chemicals that are combustible, the hot liictnl, when it comes in contact with the sand, has something upon which to Oed itself. The solution-treated sand serves as fuel, as it were, and Instead of the hot iron being cooled by ming ling with water-soaked sand, ll Is rather Increased In temperature. This, of Itself, Is an important consideration, for the hotter the metal, usually, the ('OIiDEX BK0WX. The Color Sought in Coffee, When a person has been shown that a change of food or drink can make and keep one well It Is a thing not like ly to bo forgotten. Coffee Is a "killer" for many people. sinu. ot course, when left off, the user will probably regain a degree or health without any outside 'help, but when Postum Pood correct Is used the return to health Is much more rapid, for Pos tum Is a distinct and well defined health builder with a delicious coffee ilavor and a beautiful deep brown color that chaimes to golden brown when i-mini Is mldcd, ,V Chicago man, l'eter G, Hoist, at SIS Knglewood avenue, writes, "Head ing In the paper the other day some thing about Postum Cereal, It awoke in me a reminiscent vein, About live years ago, when I was a miserable dyspeptic, I first heard of Postum Cereal Coffee and put it to a careful test, I had been alllluted, for years, with chronic dyspepsia and all the medicines 1 had tried wore in vain. One by one rimer lo leave them off and was In des pair as to what I should do for relief. ;My first taste of Postum was about ttjn o'clock one morning. I did not tfaro to ic'.co cream with it ror 1 knew what tlio result would bo with my stomach, That Is, 1 thought I did. I have ulneo learned Unit oreum can be taken In Postum even by bad dyspep tics, but 1 had my (list tasto with only hot water in It and it littlo sugur. The second cup followed tho (list and a third followed the second. I took my depart'uro munching some of the drv sxnlna or Postum as I wan determined to Investigate Its effects thoroughly. . That day I had no dinner and oxper-(t-nced no distressing sensations, on tho contrary felt.au though my appetite had been appeased, Tho next day 1 began to use Postum regularly and before the (list package badbeeji entirely used I discovered the most encouraging symptoms. TJie dys pepsia and headaches which I hud been subject to dally, entirely disappeared, also the distressing vomiting spells. Tho bowels Improved steadily ami reg ularly, I ate cautiously but was sustained by the Poatum Coffee. After the (list package I tried It with milk, tlien with cream, without experiencing the least Jnconventence. Of course l was de lighted and the future looked bright. From that first experlenco up to dute jny health has been aplendld. I have Increased In weight from 159 to 187 pounds, and; can digest anything I de ulre. I can say honestly and cheerfully that I would recommend Postum to uny ono suffering tho tortures of dys-nepsla." CaboncfaJe hotter the results. At tho same Mine there is no chance for tho troublesome nnd orttlmcft ilntineruun gases to cre ate. The chemical mixture In the sand, wholly eliminates this possibility, It wilt be seen from this description of the action of the process that the advantages are twofold. The annoy ance and danger of hydrogen gu, formed by the present process of pour ing the metal over moistened sand, Is effcclually removed; and the lhiuld Iron, instead of being cooled, Is kept tit practically the same toihpcrature ut which It is taken from tho cupola. The effect In the latter Instance Is to in crease the efficiency of the product that Is being moulded, the higher the tempcruturo of the Iron,- as 11 rule, the better and tho greater the value of the finished product. This means an Im mense economy In the making of cast iron products, amounting, perhaps, to a saving of IS pur cent) lu the manu facture. In 11 plant whero the total product for a year would bo $100,000, the saving would be Jlfi.OOO, with the use of Mr. Holland's process. Another change, and advantage, fol lowing the use of the new process, Is In the manner lu which Uiu mould Is sol. tt will be Inverted so as to econo mize materially In Iron, as It can be run In a more fluid consistency. At the trlul of the process this week, Its success was established, amid the rejoicing 0 Mr. Holland and ills asso ciates, while the workmen at the foun dry marveled that a casting could be made free ot gas. It was done, how ever, and instead, only a light blue (lame Issued from Hie holes of the moulding box. Mr. Holland has had the Idea lu mind for four or live years, but It was not until the last month that he carried on experiments to any extent. The pre liminary tests were satisfactory, anil when the successful trial was made at the Metal Working company's plant, his most sanguine expectations were realized. 1 When Mr. Holland's rights are fully protected by law, he will plan for the introduction of the process to the moulding Industry of the country. Those who appreciate Its value predict Its ready acceptance by the big con cerns of the country, as It Is a feature that It has been sought to bring about for years, but with no success. The process will be put in use lu the (.'arbondale Metal Working company's foundry, and will be a big factor In the economy of the institution. As an illustration of how its proposed use lias already appreciated the stock of the metal working company, It might be mentioned that an iron ex pert, who witnessed the test, eagerly sought to purchase some of the stock, so Impressed was he that it would ma terially increase the earnings of the plant. It might be added that there was no stock for him to obtain, as it Is all jealously held by the Incorporators, who have unbounded faith In the future of the company. BUSINESS CHANGES. The Most Important Will Be a New Dry Goods Store In the Keystone Block Other Changes. There will be several important busi ness changes this spring, but the most interesting will be the opening of a new dry goods store in the Keystone block, now occupied as a millinery store by Miss Annie Duffy. The proprietor will be one of the men now holding a responsible position In one of the leading dry goods stores of the city. The arrangements lor the opening of the store are now under way. This announcement will create a good dual ot interest in mercantile cir cles, throughout the city. Another change that is being dis cussed Is the transfer of the restaurant now conducted by Tony Letts on Salem avenue to John Brown, who Is now as sociated with his brother, Frank P. Brown, in his cafe on North Main street Mr. Letts has not announced what business he will follow, Miss Duffy, whose store will be oc cupied by the new dry goods house, will probably seek a location on the upper floor of the sumo building. " John Devlne, the West Side mer chant, is preparing to move Into his line new store, near the corner of Scott street and Woodlawn avenue. 1 IDLE MINE RESUMES. Several Hundred Men on Full Time in No. 1 Mine. There was a cheerful feeling In every quarter ot the city yesterday, when It was known that tho miners of No. 1 went back to their places, after an Idle ness of about three months, due to the destruction of the breaker by fire, The tone ot cheerfulness was added to by the circumstance that the mine, as weil us the others in the city, are to work full time. Following tho long period of idleness and the general depression felt since tho winter months set In, there was good cause for Jubilating. The new breaker, the completion of which permitted the men to return fy work, Is unlike the one that was tin. stroyed. The old ono prepared certain sizes of coal for market, with the ex ception of tho elimination of slate, but the present affair Is not more than a sorlei of chutes, into which the coal Is dumped and screened. Tho lump coal, together with the smaller sizes, is afterward convoyed to ihn Coalbrook breaker, where It Is made ready for market. County President Here, Division No, 5, Ancient Order of Hibernians, had a distinguished guest of honor last evening, Attorney C. (..

There has been considerable gossip about town this week, about a revival of the plan lo bring beautiful Crystal lake nearer to Carbondale by con structing a trolley line to the shores ot this pretty lake. Gossip placed the name of John W. Aitken, of this city, as the foremost man In the resurrection of the defunct project. Mr. Aitken, however, told The Tribune man yesterday that he was not tiwnre of any new effort to awaken the project. He said, further, that the matter would likely sleep, so long as the attitude ot so many property own ers along the proposed route remained the same as when options wore sought a few years ago. Then, as now, they wanted, and demanded, what were con sidered exorbitant prices for their land. Unless the exaggerated ideas of land values held by theso persons could be changed, there need be little hope of an early, If any, trolley road to the lake. Once more, an revolr, Crystal hike trolley line. THE MONEY FOUND. The Scholar, Who Took Peuckert Girl's Money, Confesses.

The girl on whom suspicion Tell was called into Superintendent Gnrr's olllce, where she broke down, when questioned, and admitted her guilt. Be coming conscience-stricken, she threw tho money into an Isolated spot in the collar, where It was afterward located by the constable.

Some medi cines only smother coughs. Scott's Emulsion cures them. Old coughs and deep-rooted coughs can't be cured until the inflammation which causes them has been replaced by Fheajthy tissue, 1 hat is exactly the kind o thorough work Scott's Emul sion does. It changes the entire nature of the throat and lungs so that there is nothing to cough about. Send for Tree Sample. liCOTT A; BOWNlt, ChemlsU, 44 I'eurl SI., Jt. Yi TWO PINE SPECIMENS Of Physical Manhood. No form of athletic exercise demunds such perfect physical condition as prize lighting. Every muscle In tho body must bo fully developed rind supple, und tho heart, lungs and stomach must net lo perfection. Whether we endorse prize-fighting or not, It Is nevertheless Interesting to know the manner by which men arrive at such physical perfection. I " ' '"1 ..um,. James Jefterlcs, the present champion heavy weight of the world, and his gallant opponent, Tom Sharkey, In tho greatest pugilistic encounter that has ever taken place, both pursued much tho same course or training, und the first and most Important part of this training was to get the stomach In condition, and to keep the digestion ab solutely perfect so thut every muscle and nerve would be at Its highest ca pabilities. This was not done by a secret patent medicine, but both of theso groat pugil ists used a well know natural digestive tablet Hold by druggists under the name Stuurt's Dyspesla Tablet and composed of tho digestive ferments which every stomach requires for healthy digestion. Champion Jeft'erlcs says: "Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets prevent acidity, strengthen the stomach nnd insure per fect digestion. They keep a man in tine condition." Signed, James J. Jef ferles, champion of the world. The gallant tighter, Sharkey, says: "Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets removo all discomfort utter eating. They rest tho stomach and restore it to a healthful condition. I heartily recommend them." Signed, Thos. J. Sharkey. The advantage of the dally use or Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets la that they keep people well and ward oft sickness and are equally valuable to well persons as to the dyspeptics. An other advantage Is that these tablets contain no cathartics, or poisons of any character, but simply digestive fer ments which are found In every healthy stomach, and when digestion Is Imper fect it is because the stomach hicks some of these elements, and Stuarl'n Dyspepsia Tablets supply It. They are no cheap cathartic, but a perfectly safe and efllclent digestive and tho demand 'for them is greater than the sale of all other so-called dyspepsia cures combined.

Finding the venture a losing one, we took lessons from the 'greasers' and bought from them 150 common goats. "There Is nothing but sagebrush and cactus out there for those animals to feed on, but no man ever saw a dead goat, unless he had come to some vio lent end. They live and thrive where nearly every other living thing starves to death. "We started out with 150 goats, de riving our profits from the sale of tiie hides. In 1802, we decided to mix them with Angora goats. After two years the cross disappears and you get it perfect Angora goat. It is a. valuable thing to have. The long hair is sold to, the manufacturers or plush for furni ture, sleeping cars and such things.- The hair next to the skin can be made, up into valuable shawls. The meat ot the kids Is delightful wrJen fresh and Is sent In Its canned shape to Cuba, the Philippines, other parts of the United States, to China and to many other foreign countries us canned lamb. "So rich is goat's milk that one tea spoonful of It is equal to three table spoonfuls of the purest cream. But the best part about the milk Is that it Is a deadly foe lo tubercula, and con sumptives who drink It ar.e often cured of the disease. We are planning to condense the milk and .sell it for medi cinal as well as family use. K there is any other dumb animal with more valuable qualities than the goat, then I don't know it. "No stables have to be provided for tho keeping and six ranchers are suf ficient for herding up those we want to sell. Once In a while the greasers and Indians get awny with a few, but where you've got some scrappy ranch ers they are not likely to repeat the performance often. "As a rule, now we sell the goats on the hoof. In order to do so we have to drive them Into Tucson. And a tough job It Is. Of course, horses are not much good then, as It lis so hard to get provender and water, but there is a species of bronco which the natives call 'loco poka,' which is as hardy as a goat. The loco poka hi the craziest thing between Arizona and tho next hottest country. As long as the notion doesn't strike 'em they're all right, but if ever they niako up their minds to stop nothing on earth can start 'em. Whenever one goes, the rest goes. A stampeding loco poka might go through a town where a score of his kind are hitched and every blessed one of them would break loose. In some way and go galloping after him. They run till they get good and ready to stop. If you happen to hang on that long you can turn your loco poka around and the rest will follow, "We use the loco pokas for packing tho kid meat to Tucson, and, barring this one accomplishment, they aro all rlBht " HIS TITLE DID NOT COUNT. They toll a characteristic story of Lord Methueu. says the London Pnll Mall Gazette. It seems that a "new chum" had Joined his Irregular horse. A younger son of a noble family, this young fellow had been sent to tho col onies to get rid' of his wlldness, or to Increase It, us tho case might bo. Ho had not long joined the Irregular horse before ho was sent up to Lord Methueu for somo gross breach of discipline, Not knowing boforo whom ho had been taken, the youngster resented, and snlrl to Lord Methueu: "Do you know who I am? I am Lord There was silence for quite a minute, and then enmo tho unswer: "Let me Introduce myself. Paul San ford Mothuen sentences you to iwepty one days' confinement to barracks ror breach of discipline." FELT SORRY FOR THE BOERS. The Birmingham Dally Mail tells of tho departure of one or tho reservists for thu front, showing tho sublime con ftdenco which a British soldier's wife has ii the prowess of her eppuse. As her husband left In tho train from Snow Hill station a woman wns to be seen weeping bitterly. Full of sym pathy, a bystander tried to speak words of comfort to the grief-stricken wire, when he was met with the following UllRWiir: Oh, it ain't "Ini I'm troubling about; it's them poor Boers I'm a thlnkln' of.
