Bandits Raid Card And Dice Game Among Derby Race Fans; Get $2(1,0(10 Louisville, Kv„ May 19 —(U.R)—Four bandits held up a card and dice game in Hie Seelbach hotel here last night and escaped with $20,0.00 in cash and jewelry police revealed today. Fifteen men. here to attend the Kentucky derby were the victims, police said. It was understood that a majority of them were from Memphis, Tenn., and Included two eastern Kentucky coal operators. The four bandits quietly slipped into tlie suite where the men had assem bled, police said. Three of the robbers produced revolvers and curtly directed tlie men to raise their hands while tlie fourth rifled their clothes. Then tlie quartet withdrew, locked tlie door and fled. The robbery apparently had been carefully planned. Switch board telephone connections leading to the suite bad been cut to prevent an immediate call for help. o — — — l ——■ Process of Briquetting In briquetting charcoal It has been found necessary to use certain binders, such us gums or starches. Briquetting lias also been accomplished by using tar or pitch as n binder and then subjecting the briquettes to a low temperature distillation In order to drive off tlie volatile muterial from the tar und pitch. Brick Favored Material All parts of London are alike In the fact that most of the buildings are made of brick. There are no quarries nearby, so the stone for the finer buildings must be brought from a distance. The smoke-laden London fog blackens the entire city, although the West end suffers least in this respect.
