New Thin for Ncbra.ka Beet. .
Fremont dispatch : W. C. Peterson.
who has been experimenting in devising -
ing a process for the manufacture of
crude sugar from beets , has succeeded
in making crude spirits from the juice.
This afternoon at his residence in
Saunders county in the presence of
Deputy Collector of Revenue-Mathews
of Omaha and a number of Fremont
business men he operated his still for
the first time , and succeeded in obtaining -
ing a spirit which was tested by Vi. II.
Bruner and reached the high point of
,140.
,140.'I'hc
'I'hc juice is first treated by a chemni
cal process , upon which Peterson has a
patent , which rcmovei from it all the
albumninoids and salts and is then
allowed to ferment , after which it goes
through the still. The still used today -
day was a very small one , there being
only forty feet of pipe in the coil. The
liquor obtained with only one distillation -
tion was of a light milky color and was
said by Mathews to be more like rum
than any other spirits. It had the general -
eral smell and appearance of raw spirits -
its and had no vegetable taste. Both
Mm : Mathews and Nr. Peterson are
of the opinion that by running it
through a larger still and by redistil-
lation the highest grade of alcohol can
be obtained. The beets used in today's
test were of S per cent sugar content.
The purity coefficient was not deter-
mined. Mir. Peterson says that beets
of as low a grade as 1 per cent sugar
can be used , but of course the larger
the sugar content the better the results -
sults obtained.
'I'ic } cost of the spirit , lie claims , is
inlteh less than that made from other
substances and he does not think that
for the manufacture of the raw spirits
an extensive plant is necessary. Those
posted on the manufacture of spirits
are of the opinion that a high grade of
alcohol can be made from the juice and
that a large additional demand for
beets will thus be made.
Time juice used today was exirracted
from the beets by pressure and the
salts and albumoids removed yester-
day. It only fermented about twelve
hours. Tomorrott' Peterson will experiment -
iment with some syrup he has obtained
from the Utah beet sugar factory and
from which sugar cannot be made.
The experiments have been conducted
with a view to obtaining alcohol , and
all present are of the opinion that they
were a success. Mr. Peterson is still
experimenting in the manufacture of
crule. sugar and plans are being matured -
tured for the erection of a factory. He
showed some syrup which he had made
from beets. It is better than that which
he had at the state sugar convention-
clear in color and with very little vegetable -
etable taste. It closely resembles the
best grades of sorghum. l'arties who
have tried it for cooking purposes are
much pleased with it.

Bogus Silver Dollars.
brand Island dispatch : Residents om
hall county who have lived here as
early as 1878 and 1850 , still remember
the capture by government officials of
Geor'r Clark and one Evans for coun-
terfeiting. 'The men were tried. but

duly notified the government.

stant when the question of higher
usefulness and duty comes up for de-
cision. 'r'ime War Cry scandal is a damaging -
aging thing to us while weremain under -
der time flag. It never was Balling-
ton Booth's intention that the intimate -
mate causes of his revolt should be =
come public. The details of his difference -
ference with his father reflected no
credit on the general. and Ballington
tvillimmgly would have spared hint nain ,
but some over-zealous friend has let
