Tlje test perforwtance of a new Cattily Pursuit Plane has caused a sensation in the Army am? Navy ser vices. ' Ever since the Pulitzer Race at Detroit, in which a new all-Ameri can motor finished in the first four places, it has been expected that military planes of a super-type would make tneir appearance at almost any time. The actual performance of the first pursuit ship of a series surpasses expectation. In many-respects, this aeropi.ane is a depasture from precedent. It uses the same"Gurtlse motor used in ttio racing shipsfat Detroit. It is equipped with wing radiators,'the most radical advance In the art of ooollns a motor since 1917, and which reduces the resistance of the air almost to aero. These features were expected.

In the Butte ‘district 'a process of fire fighting has been de veloped by & mining company which is salvaging an ore body of tremendous extent. Fires that have been burning for 15 years In three connecting mines are being smothered under 1,000,000 too.s of mud. At th© end of 1922 2.000,000 tons of. metalliferous ore, containing, accord ing expert estimates, at least 80,- tXI) tons of copper, once more will be accessible. Sand, decomposed rock and other materials which came originally from the stopes and were discarded as tail ings In the process of copper extrac tion, simply have been turned back into the fire area. Water, which in I many cases has proved Its uselessoess ns an extinguisher of underground fires, is used for transportation. It conveys the tailings down to the fire regions, 1,200 to 2,200 feet under ground, where the souplike slime fills the abandoned drifts, cross-cuts and stopes and literally smothers the fire. Interesting to Archeologists. A Roman-British grave has -Just ' been discovered on Ham hill, Somer-, set. England. On the east side of the . Roman encampment was unearthed the complete skeleton of a young . adult, probably a male. The grav a . was about two feet in depth, lying due north and south, the head and shoul ders being Inclosed by slabs of Ham stone. On the right of the bead lay a ' Nfctdiow dish of Roman-British black j pottery. This was broken In three places, probably by the super-encum bent earth, but with the exception of a small portion of the rim it was pos sible to restore IL Near the head lay a crude and barbarous copy of a Third or Fourth century A. D. Reman bears coin. This hjid probably been placed in the mouth to endfcde the dead man te pay his fare to Charon, the ferry man, for taking him across the Styx. Near the right hand of the skeleton lay an oval hammer stone or pounder. Homespun Jeans. A suit of clothes made from Ken tucky homespun jeans now Is a rari ty but the cloth still Is produced In a small way in remote sections of the mountain country. There the old time methods of carding the wooL spinning and looming are practiced In the production of the finished cloth for which Kentucky once had a na tion-wide reputation. Kentucky statesmen of the older pe riod always appeared attired in jeans and occasionally now men are to be seen wearing a home-spun jeans suit of the most modern sartorial cut giv ing the wearer an air of distinction. If most cases the mountain looms now are devoted to weaving rag car pets In which handiwork many of the Women arc experts. Many visitors have marveled at the blending of col ors and the artistic design? in rag rugs- woven on a mountain loom.— Louisville Courier-Journal.

That his visit wa 6 appreciated was evidenced by the jovility of the Cody youngesterg the following morning, when a group of them could be found In almost any part of the city com paring coaster wagons, dolls, etc., etc. in an effort to prove that each one received the best gift of all. At some of the places where Santa called the children of the house w reluctant to let him leave, keep&g him with questions and wishes -as long as possible. A number of girls wore out singing Christmap carols in an effort to in duce old Santa to make his stay here quite long.
