This material which is put on the market as "chats," consists of small angular fragments of chert and limestone. The zinc companies are very glad to get rid of this waste material, which is loaded on cars by the railroads of the district at a cost of about 6 or 8 cents a ton. It makes more than ordinarily good roads and is widely distributed all through the Middle West. It sells in most places at prices ranging from 50 cents to $1 a ton, but in the neighborhood of the mines it can be had for about 15 cents a ton. It is used for railroad ballast as well as road making. The annual output amounts to about 1,300,000,000 tons. In Tennessee and Alabama a quantity of chert is used for road metal, and in many states crushed slag from blast furnaces also furnishes a valuable road material. In Alabama, one of the large iron producing states, over 2,000,000 short tons of furnace slag, the average value of which was about 25 cents a ton, was crushed and put on the roads last year. Crushed slag is also used as railroad ballast and for concrete and roofing material.

At a meeting of their chamber of commerce recently fire protection was argued, and it was agreed that incorporation was the only way to get it. The Chamber of Commerce raised money several months ago by popular subscription for fire hose, carts and hydrants, but as there is so little pressure to the water system, it seems that the job of securing fire protection is only just begun. During a discussion of good roads is was stated that the contractors had announced their plan of starting work at La Habra and laying the road eastward and this did not look good to those who remembered that the contractors had pledged themselves to lay the Brea end of the road first. It was resolved to call their attention to their agreement. Some of the La Habra people who are interested in the road want to deny Brea the chance to appoint an inspector to look after the road work, so that an expert can be hired and TEACHERS INSTITUTE AT SANTA ANA Interesting Program Prepared for County Institute Next Week County Superintendent of Schools R.

EXPOSITION NEWS NOTES Argentina will not trust her exhibits for the Panama Pacific International Exposition to be sent in foreign ships after the experience of a few weeks ago and has utilized one of the government transports for the purpose. Late in October a shipment of 63 cases of exhibits was sent on the English boat Vandyke but on the way the ship met the German cruiser Karlsruhe and after some parleying was sent to the bottom. Argentina immediately characterized the government transport Palmimo and loaded it to the extreme draft with the bulk of Argentina's exhibits. The first shipment made by the government was of materials, for the Argentina pavilion, which is well advanced. Three redwood counties of California have begun the construction of a Redwood bungalow on the grounds. The counties are Humboldt, Mendocino and Sonoma. The bungalow will be fitted out as a country home and will cost $12,000 and serve as one of the many interesting forestry exhibits.

It is the largest structure ever erected by any state at an exposition. The first consignment of New York State exhibits has arrived on the grounds on the steamship Panaman to arrive by way of the Panama canal.

There they were turned over to Probation Officer J. H. Scott, and he took them up before the Juvenile Court yesterday. The names of the quartet are Rudolph and Floyd Smith, who are brothers, of the ages of fourteen and seventeen, respectively; Clyde Higginson aged 12, and Samuel White, 16, are the rest of the "held for ransom" gang. The house of F. C. Hartranft was one of the first which was entered, and from this a valuable diamond ring and a gold watch, amongst other articles were taken. The ring was recovered, but the boys stoutly maintain that they do not know what became of the watch. Besides the articles of jewelry a lot of "funny supplements" to the Sunday papers were taken.

An auto belonging to Perry E. Taylor collided with a machine belonging to the Star auto stage service on the road between Santa Ana and this city last Saturday night. The right hand wheels of both machines were broken showing that they had tried to get back on the right side of the road, and in this attempt crashed together. W. C. Spencer of Buena Park was injured Saturday night in a collision between two stage automobiles on the Anaheim road. The accident also resulted in considerable damage to the machines. Spencer, who is an engineer in the employ of the state highway commission, was riding in one of P. E. Taylor's Ford cars when it collided with Fred Wiatt's car, which was driven by Harvey Price of Santa Ana. The smash-up occurred between 10 and 11 p.m. and Spencer was the only one hurt. He was taken to the Anaheim sanitarium and his injuries consisted of numerous scratches and a few cuts on the hand were attended to.
