VOL. XVIII. Escapes Again Elude Pursuers, Though a Strong Cordon Had Been Thrown Around Them. Other Conflicts Reported. Reports of an encounter between members of the state militia and thirteen convicts who escaped from Folsom prison, were in Placeville, Cal. Saturday night, but owing to the remoteness of scene of battle and the fact that night 'tell almost immediately following the receipt of the first news details were meagre. It is known, however, that the sheriff's posse, assisted by a force of the Placeville militia, came upon some of the fugitives near the Grand Victory mine about dusk and shots were exchanged. Lieutenant Smith and seven men were pursuing a trial that had been discovered earlier in the day. Their first intimation of the presence of the convicts was when the latter opened five on them at close range from a hiding place in the bushes. Three members of Lieutenant Smith's squadron fell at the first volley. They were Rutherford, Jones and Gill. The soldiers returned the fire of the outlaws, and at the same time ran down the hill and left the fallen men to take care of themselves. Gill managed to make his way down the hill to a place of safety and was picked up by friends. Fearful of the bullets of the convicts, the pursuers made no attempt to get back to the scene of the battle to learn the fate of the other two men. Meagre news of the conflict spread quickly and in a few hours the hill was surrounded by a large force, including the entire strength of the Placerville company. Nearby and cooperating with the militiamen was a posse of citizens from Placerville, headed by the sheriff's son, Dallas Bosquill. They were within sound and sight of the fighting, but dared not fire for fear of hitting the militiamen. Lleutenant Smith says there were four convicts in the band that opened fire on his men, but he was unable to identify any of them except the negro Seavis. It was impossible to have a cordon extended around the hill for some hours. The cordon covered nearly two miles and required over a hundred men. Before the picket lines could be formed, the convicts got away eastward along the creek. In their haste they left a water can, several hats and some firearms on the hillside where the conflict occurred. The dead bodies of Rutherford and W. C. Jones, the two militiamen who were shot by the outlaws, were found Sunday morning where they had fallen. Jones had served in the Philippines as a member of the First Tennessee and the Thirty-seventh volunteer United States infantry. Al Gill, the national guardsman, who was shot through one lung, is not expected to recover. Another report states that four of the convicts, not believed to be the same who ambushed the officers Sunday, were discovered near Lotus, in the Webber creek district, by a posse. A number of shots were exchanged, but so far as known without result. LIGHTNING BOLT KILLS' THREE. Pleasure Yacht Struck and Occupants Dealt Quick Death. A dispatch from Mobile, Ala., says: Sunday afternoon the pleasure yacht, Florodora, was struck by lightning off the wharf at Point Clear, on Mobile bay, and Ledyard Scott, formerly professor in the Imperial university at Kagasima, Japan; Bruce Granville Lincoln, a wealthy young Englishman visiting Mobile, and William Brewfon, pilot of the bont, were killed. Advices from Venezuela indicate that President Castro is treating foreigners with great harshness. FIVE YEARS AWARDED MURPHY. Convicted Labor Official Given Heavy Sentence by New York Judge. A New York dispatch says: Lawrence Murphy, former treasurer of the Journeymen Stonecutters' union, who was arrested last December, charged with embezzling $12,000 from the organization and convicted of grand larceny, has been sentenced to five years and six months in state's prison. Judge Newburger scored the prisoner severely, saying that he had spent the funds of the union in riotous living, and that his total stealing amounted to $27,000. The Savannah Postmaster General Payne Returns to Washington and Taiks of Scandal in His Department. A Washington dispatch says: Postmaster General Payne resumed his official duties at the department Saturday. He had a long conference with his assistants during the morning and for several hours talked over the investigation with Fourth Assistant Bristow. The latter reviewed everything that has been done during Mr. Payno's absence. Mr. Payne said that it could not by any means be said that investigation was ended, although he hoped the end was in sight. He said it might be completed in four weeks, but it was impossible to fix any exact date. He said the president, in common with himself and Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Bristow, will be glad when the investigation is over, not that none of them wants the inquiv closed until every irregularity has been ferreted out. Mr. Payne pointed out that inspectors are working on the cases in various parts of the country and developments not now foreseen may occur at any time. Mr. Payne declared that every one against whom any evidence has been found will be treated according to the evidence and that no one will be shielded by the department. WOMAN THE BEST SHOT. West Virginia Farmer Lald Low In a Duel With His Wife. William Adair, a prosperous farmer and lumber dealer, was shot and killed by his wife in front of their home near Matewan, W. Va., Monday. Adair, who had been in Cincinnati disposing of some lumber, returned rather unexpectedly and found his wife away from home. He went in search for her, and finding her in the home of a neighbor, Icame jealous, and pulling a revolver from his pocket, fired three shots at her, all of which went wild. Mrs. Adair ran home, seized her husband's winchester and returned to the yard just as he was entering the gate in pursuit. He attempted to escape, but a bullet from the winchester, in the hands of the infuriated woman, laid him low. He fell to the ground, mortally wounded, and died without uttering a word.

Clay were offered Monday morning in the Madison county court, at Richmond, Ky. The proouting of each was objected to by the legal heirs of C. M. Clay. Objections were sustained by the court and each of the wills was indorsed "offered." The court set September 2 as the time when the question of probating all of General Clay's wills will be taken up. Other wills are expected to be offered on or before that date. . BAD WRECK IN ORIENT. Thirty Persons Killed In Railroad Accident in Austrina Silesia. A dispatch to The Volks Zeltung, Berlin, from Breslau reports a serious disaster on a railway in Austrian Siliesia. A train consisting of eleven cars heavily loaded with stone broke their coupling pins and ran at a terrific speed down a sharp grade for twenty miles until they collided with a passenger train. Thirty persons are said to be killed and fifty-two others severely injured. WHITECAPPERS IN TENNESSEE. One Negro Shot Dead and Another Fatally Wounded by a Mob. At Lewisburg, Tenn., one negro was killed and another fatally wounded by a band of whitecappers Monday night. There was between fifteen and thirty in the mob, which made its appearance at the home of a negro preacher named John Milliken. Milliken made his exit through a back door. He was brought down by a volley. John Hunter, a son in law of Milliken, was made to accompany the mob on a fruitless search for another negro and in an attempt to escape was fatally shot in the back. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. AUGUST 8. 1903. MOBHELD UP TRAIN USED MUCH AMMUNITION The Chesapeake and Ohio express train No. 1 was held up by a mob of two hundred men near Clifton Forge, West Virginia, at a late hour Friday night and a desperate effort was made to take two negro prisoners from the train. Over a hundred shots were fired by the mob, and when the train reached Huntington 20 bullets were buried in the woodwork of the smoking car and all of the windows had been shot out. At Clifton Forge the two negro prisoners were taken on board to be sent to Covington, Va., for safe keeping. Engineer James Peck, of Hinton, and Conductor Jack Hall, of Huntington, who were in charge of the train, saw lights waving on the track just as the train had begun to gather speed after leaving Clifton Forge. The train was stopped immediately, and Engineer Peck started to get out of his engine to find out why the train had been flagged. As the train came to a standstill, a mob surrounded the engine and coaches, and threatened to shoot Engineer Peck if he moved the train. Then they began to climb aboard. Conductor Hall, who had anticipated trouble when he saw the train flagged, was prepared for the mob, and as they made a rush for the coaches, he ordered all the doors of the cars locked. The men, finding that it would be impossible for them to enter and obtain the negroes, began to gather around the smoking car, in which the negroes were under guard. As Conductor Hall ran through the train calling upon the passengers to lay flat on the floor, the mob, began firing into the windows of the smoker, while the passengers scrambled from their seats to a place of safety from the flying bullets. The firing was kept up for several minutes, and bullets whistled through the car windows. While women screamed, the mob outside continued their clamoring for the two negro prisoners. Flying missiles of all description came through the windows, but not a passenger or trainman was injured. Engineer Peck, during the firing, had sat upon his engine covered by revolvers in the hands of several members of the mob. At last when the main body of the mob had almost exhausted the supply of bullets, those who had been guarding the engineer left, going toward the smoker, leaving Peck unguarded. As his guards turned, Peck pulled the throttle wide open and the train began to move. The mob, seeing the turn things were taking, and fearing that they might be outdone in their efforts to get the prisoners, climbed upon the platform of the car and attempted to stop the train by applying the air brakes. Not understanding the working of the brakes, however, they were unable to apply them at full pressure, as the train had gotten under headway. Realizing that they were baffled, the men jumped from the moving train and fired several farewell shots into the car windows. The train gained quick momentum and did not stop until Cevington was reached, where the negroes were placed in jail. The negroes for womom the train was held up are from Lynchburg, Va., and are supposed to be the men who shot and seriously injured a white brakeman, Edward Hite, a few days ago. Drowned by Monster Catfish. Browned by insistent Gathen. William Lenz, of LaCrosse, Wis., went fishing Friday night in the Mississippi and hooked a large cat fish. The fish gave battle, and Lenz, unwilling to let go, was drawn into the river and drowned. JUDGE GRAY AN ARBITER. Delaware Jurist Accepts Job*of Untangling Alabama Trouble. A dispatch from Wilmington, Del., says: Judge George Gray decided Thursday to accept his appointment as fifth member of the Alabama coal strike commission and so telegraphed to the other members of the committee. In order to attend to the committee work he will have to forego his usual August vacation. Judge Gray will leave Wilmington on Saturday, August 8, for Birmingham, Ala., where the commission will sit and begin the sessions the following Monday morning. GRIP ON THE GRAFTERS. Drawn Still Tighter by Grand Jury at Washington—More Indictments Found. A Washington special says: The federal grand jury, which has been considering evidence growing out of the postoffice investigation, returned indictments Friday against the following: August W. Machen, formerly general superintendent of free delivery. John T. Crupper, mayor of Lock Haven, Pa. William C. Long, of Washington. William Gordon Crawford, also of Washington. George E. Lorenz and Martha J. Lorenz, his wife, of Toledo, Ohio. Maurice Unkel, of New York city. Thomas W. McGregor, formerly chief of supplies, division of mail free delivery. William J. Stern, of Baltimore. With the exception of Crawford, all of the above are indicted for conspiracy. The indictment against Crawford is for presenting a false claim against the government. Long and Crupper are also indicted separately for bribery. Orders for the arrest of all parties were immediately issued. This batch of indictments does not wind up the cases before the grand jury, and other matters resulting from the postal investigation are pending before that body and may result in indictments against other parties in the near future. MAINE MILLS ALSO CLOSE. A special from Lewiston, Maine, says: The extreme high price of raw cotton has compelled the Bales and Androscoggin Manufacturing Companies, employing 3,000 hands, to order a curtailment of the output. Friday notices were posted on the gates of these two corporations notifying the employes that after Saturday the mills would be in operation only four days each week until further notice. This is the first announcement this season of any extended curtailment in Maine. Orders were also received from the Boston office of the company to shut down the Cabott cotton mines, located at Brunswick, for two weeks. The order affects 1,000 operatives. The closing is said to be due to the high price of cotton. BULLETS FOR STRIKERS. Non-Union Men Forced to Use Guns for Self-Protection. The most serious disturbance of the many that have occurred since the beginning of the strike at the Port Vue tin mill, at McKeesport, Pa., took place Friday evening. During the fight John Mount was fatally injured and John Cameron was shot so that he will be crippled for life. Both victims were on their way home from one of the other mills. When the turns changed at the Port Vue mill, two of the non-union men, H. D. King and Elmer Dolff, started for home, when a crowd of 100 strikers closed in on them, and it was seen that the four or five policemen present were not able to cope with them. King and Dolff drew their revolvers and fired into the crowd, which broko and ran. Mount and Cameron were struck while endeavoring to get out of danger. CASTRO ADOPTS WRONG POLICY. Insult to Spanish Consul Caused by Venezuela's Anti-Foreign Attitude Venezuela's Anti-Foreign Attitude. Semi-official advises received in Washington from reliable sources throw light upon the complications existing in La Guayra, incident to the trouble between the Spanish consul there and the Venezuelan authorities. They also make it appear that serious trouble in that quarter is pending because of the anti-foreign attitude of the Venezuelan government. According to those advises the Spanish consul reqdested the privilege of appearing before a tribunal, which was examining the claim of a Spanish subject against Venezuela. He was punished through the witdrawal of his exequateur. DOUBLES ON BRYAN SLOGAN. A Ratio of 32 to 1 Is Favored by the Monetary Commission. A report has been received at the state department from the United States monetary commission which is investigating the question of currency for silver-using countries. The commission has already visited London, Paris, The Hague and Berlin. According to the report the proposal of the American commission or a ratio of 32 to 1 for new silver currency for Oriental countries has been generally well received. LOBBYING CHARGED INVESTIGATION IN ORDER Resolution Adopted Defines the Crime of Lobbying and Calls for Probing of Accusations Made on Floor of Mouce. Charges of "lobbying" made openly in the Georgia legislature, and the report of these charges by the newspapers—accompanied in some instances by comment construed as reflecting seriously upon the members of the general assembly—were responsible for the senate's adoption, Thursday morning, of a resolution calling for a joint committee of investigation. The resolution was immediately transmitted to the house, where it was referred to the committee on judiciary. The committee at its meeting in the afternoon adopted a substitute for the original resolution in which the wording of the original was somewhat changed. With the adoption of either set of resolutions, however, an investigation is assured. Members of the senate discussed the subject for an hour and then 3y practically unanimous vote adopted the following resolution: Whereas, the constitution of the state of Georgia declares lobbying to be a crime, and in pursuance of this conditional provision, the general assembly has by legislative enactment, defined lobbying to be any personal solicitation of a member of the general assembly of this state during a session thereof by private interview, or letter, or message, or other means and appliances not addressed solely to the judgment to favor or oppose or to vote for or against any bill, resolution, report, or claim pending or to be introduced, in either branch thereof, by any person who misrepresents the nature of his interest in the matter to such members, or who is employed for a consideration by a person or corporation interested in the passage or defeat of such bill, resolution, report, or claim for the purpose of procuring the passage or defeat thereof. But this does not include such service as drafting petitions, bills or resolutions, attending to the taking of testimony, collating facts, preparing arguments and memorials, and submitting them orally or in writing to a committee or member of the general assembly, and other service of like character intended to reach the reason of the legislators. And as prescribed as a punishment for the violation of this penal statute, confinement in the penitentiary for not less than one year nor more than five years. And whereca, it has been charged by certain prominent and influential members of the general assembly "that lobbying does exist in this legislature, and that they know it to be true, but cannot prove it, because these lobbyists know whom to approach. They seek only those whom they know will not give them away; that lobbyism may be broken up in Georgia, but it will not be by the members of the legislature." And whereca, leading newspapers of the state have commented upon these charges. And whereca, said charges are a reflection and insult to those members who seek to discharge their duty in accordance with the solemn oath taken by each member: And whereas, it is an sense of the senate and the house of representatives that the charges hereinbefore made should be fully investigate1; therefore, be it, Resolved by the senate, the house concurring. That a joint committee be appointed, three from the senate, to be appointed by the president of the senate, and five from the house, to be appointed by the speaker of the house, to investigate these charges, with full power to subpoena witnesses and compel their attendance, and report all evidence and findings to the general assembly now in session, within one week from this date. Georgia Senate Passes Bill Already Approved by the House. The Georgia senate held a short session Monday, but when it adjourned the desk was clear of business. Some house bills of general interest, and two senate bills were passed. The bill to abolish "days of grace" in Georgia, which had passed the house, was perhaps the most important of the general measures considered. As there was some little opposition to this, the roll was called. The bill passed by a vote of 23 to 3. Cream of News.

They were most kind, however, the womens insisting upon giving up one of their rooms, and we all become very friendly, foraging the larder for our pupier and cooking it with but landlady in her little kitchen. As I was supposed to be the culinary genius of our party, and the niece had attended a cooking class in New York, City, we were installed as a committee on the commissariat, and we became necessarily very 'chummy', especially as the rain continued the next day, and we all voted to remain where we were until the roads got into condition. Well, to make a long story short, the niece, as you probably have surmised, is at present my wife. The oldest part of it all is yet to come, for mutual inquiries soon elicited the fact that we were both from New York City; but it was not until some time afterward that we discovered that we lived in the same street, and, what was stranger still, actually next door to each other, and had grown up without knowing each other, separated only by a wall of brick and plaster, my boyhood at school and young manhood at college making the circumstances a perfectly natural, one, especially as our parents were not acquainted."—New York Tribune. Boydoir CHAT Three hundred and twelve American women have married foreign titles. Wellesley College, at Wellesley, Mass., this year graduated 158 young women. The Princess of Wales as Duchess of York always insisted upon having plenty of rose bushes in the garden. The Vienna University bids fair to become a woman's institution, so numerous are the fair candidates for academic honors on the banks of the Danube. Oberlin College women are working hard to secure funds for a woman's athletic field. Each student engages to contribute ten dollars, and most of them are earning the money themselves. King Edward has conferred the decoration of the Royal Red Cross on Lady Macdonald, wife of Sir Claude Maxwell Macdonald, in recognition of her services in attending the wounded soldiers during the defense of the legation at Pekin in 1900. Sir Claude Macdonald was then the British Minister in China. Dr. E. Castner, of Marlenfelde, near Berlin, who was one of the first German women to come to this country to study a profession closed to her in Germany, has given up her profession of dentistry after many years of successful work, and is devoting herself to a school of horticulture for women founded by herself. There are now a number of women dentists in Germany. After two years of litigation the highest court in Mexico has decided that the Rancho Llane de Oro, worth millions of dollars, belongs to an American girl, Miss Mona Clair Erskane, of Illinois. Miss Erskane inherited a claim to the lands in Mexico from her father, with the advice to study law and Spanish and to fight for the claim in the courts. She did as directed, making her own brief and arguing the case before the court. FADS FANCIES Square lace yokes adorn both dresses and tailor rigs. Plaid cravats are odd, and, if becoming, very pleasing. Pongee collars with lace en applique are tremendously smart. Some handsome costumes show panel fronts from throat to toe. One row of pearls is a charming finish for a rich Empire comb. Embroidery roses are stuffed into such relief as to seem life-size. Tassels still play a more or less important part in dress and cloak making. Pleated skirts are best liked when set on a yoke which is extended into a panel front. There seems to be less and less difference between dresses for women and for misses. A tiny marabout plume the shade of the dress is a pretty touch for the evening colfure. Qualit, old-time ruffles are a feature of many of the dresses that might well be called picture gowns. It is whispered that many an old curtain has been sacrificed to trim a new dress with "antique lace." Scalloped effects with strap finishes are consplueous on some of the handsome imported tailor costumes. In tucked dresses it's merely a matter of taste whether the tucks go round and 'round or are mitred down in front. Appliques of all shapes are in great vogue, there being little choice between square, round, oval and scroll shapes. An underblowse of red-dotted white Liberty is effective on a pretty pony model, the dots showing up fetchingly in the abbreviated cash as well as the front and the undersleaves. Paradise plumes have become exceedingly fashionable in Paris, though their expense naturally limits the production. They are to be seen in yellow and white on burnt-straw toques, and the combination is one that for the moment is considered the delight of chle in millinery. SUPPLEMENT TO THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1903. OUR GIRLS AND BOYS Take a great big cooking apron— There you are—if hands are clean! All is ready for the baking Of the nicest jumbles seen. To an even cup of butter Take three-quarters of a pound Of the finest grain of sugar, Sift it twice and stir it round Till it mixes with the butter— (In a bowl—be sure of that) Sift until it looks so creamy Twould deserve a tabby cat. Break two eggs—then a nutmeg or Keep on stirring, if you please— Sift in flour till the substance You can handle at your ease. Sprinkle flour on the table. Take your dough and roll it thin— Then the fun of making jumbles is now ready to begin. Use a nice round biscuit cutter. Mark each jumble off with care, Have a pump forefinger ready— Drive it through the centre—threel Dip your cookies well in sugar; Have your buttered pans near by— And you'll fill them up with jumbles In the twinkling of an eye. In a good hot oven bake them— Watch them well or they will burn. If you're careful, every jumble Will be trusted to a turn. A man who has devoted much time to the study of the oyster says that this bilvaive is born with his shell on and that he only grows in the summer time. The beard of an oyster is not only his breathing organ—that is, his lungs—but it also serves to convey food to his mouth. When the warm, calm rays of June come, the oyster opens his shell, and, by means of his beard, begins building an additional fory to his house. This he does by SEASHORE SEASHORE PUZZLE. Can you find both their father and brother? Can you find both their father and brother? depositing very, very fine particles of carbonate of lime, till at last they form a substance as thin as silver paper, and exceedingly fragile.

Several kinds of insects have sharp jaws for cutting holes in wood. Some make queer markings in intricate and beautiful patterns just beneath the bark of decaying trunks. Others bore smooth and even holes of about the diameter of a lead pencil deep into the tree. Some insects make these holes or intricate network of passages for homes where they may live and be protected from storms. Others not only cut the wood, but use the chips for food—St. Nicholas. - TWO JACKS IN A BOX. Cut out two half circles of cardboard for the front and back of the box, and join them together by gluing a piece of cardboard around the edges, as shown in the drawing. Cut a piece of wood about the size of a lead pencil, just the length to go across the box from front to back. Fasten a piece of good stout wire on the centre, and at the end hang a weight made of a piece of lead or anything that is both small and heavy. From near the end of the wire, not far above the weight, fasten a wire that comes out each side and bends upward, and on both these bent-up ends put a very light figure of a clown or a jack. Now put the wooden spindle or axle in the box crossways, a little below the centre of the diameter of the half circles, front and back, and fasten by driving a small tack through the cardboard and into each end. When you rock the box, first one and then the other figure will come up. Lids may be put on the top of the box, as shown in the picture, that when the figure is down the lid will close. If you want to, you can make the front and back of the box rectangles instead of half-circles, so it will be steady instead, or rocking. Then make the weight at the end of the wire swingers.—New York World. TRAINED TO POLITENESS. A woman tells of a monkey which she saw while in Paris, which was so well trained in good manners that it was almost impossible to believe that he did not understand what was said to him. The Japan Weekly Mail describes the animal's accomplishments: "When the woman met the monkey suddenly on the stairs one day, the creature stood in the corner to allow her to pass, and, when she said, 'Good morning!' he took off his cap and bowed. "Are you going away? she asked. 'Where is your passport?' Pulling off his cap, he took from the crown a paper, opened it, and showed it to her. When some one observed that her dress was dusty, the courteous monkey took a brush from the table, and carefully brushed her dress and then her shoes. "When any one gave him food, he always made a low bow before taking it, and then ate it slowly and daintily. He had been taught to eat eggs with a spoon and to use a knife and fork. E PUZZLE. He could lock and unlock a drawer, thread a needle, uncork a bottle, and polish his master's shoes. He seemed to take great pleasure in gay company, and paid close attention to the conversation, looking in aur at each speaker as if he understood what was said. "This remarkable monkey was never placed on exhibition. He died at an early age of pneumonia." CONDENSED AIR TRICK Fasten a needle, the point in the air, to the bottom of a basin with a bit of sealing wax. Arrange an egg-shell, a third of which has been cut off, in the following manner: Pierce the upper end with two little holes, into which insert two straws, each terminating in a right angle and heed in place by sealing wax. Around the open end of the egg glue three or four pieces of money in order to keep it is balance. Then set the shell thus prepared upon the point of the needle. Fill the basin with water and with a straw blow the air beneath the eggshell; this air rises, is condensed above, and in escaping by the little paper tube gives a rotary movement to the whole apparatus. This is the same phenomenon as that produced by water pressure. Joubert's Chair.

As a matter of fact, the pressure is so great that ordinary articles of wood are compressed to half their original size if lowered to a depth of 3,000 feet. If a human being were suddenly exposed to the pressure of water at that depth he would be compressed to the thinness of paper. A diver at the depth of 10,000 feet would have weight upon him equal to several hundred of the greatest and heaviest locomotives. There are depressions very much deeper, however, and soundings have been made establishing depths of more than 22,000 feet near the Island of St. Thomas, in the Atlantic, and of almost 27,000 feet near the Japanese coast. Great forests of seaweed cover the bottom of the ocean, and reach from the greatest depths to the surface. In these forests there is life more diversified than in the primeval forests of the tropics. Spiders and wormlike animals of enormous size, infusoriae, crabs, sea urchins, shells, crustaceans, starfish, turtles and millions of other living things of all kinds find their food in the equally varied plant life of the deep sea. Deep sea fish have been brought up in the deep sea drag not invented by Prince Albert of Monaco. A curious circumstance connected with deep sea fish is that none of these has ever been brought up alive. Recent deep sea explorations reveal the fact that the ocean still contains immeasurable treasures, which await development and utilization by human inventiveness. The most fertile acre of cultivated land is a sterile desert compared with one acre of the surface of the deep sea bottom—Philladelphis Ledger. HOW TO COOK: GREENS A great many people are very fond of greens, but still a greater number dislike them. I sometimes think it is because they are not cooked and seasoned properly. We never cared much for them until this spring, a lady neighbor gave us her method of cooking them, and since we think they are a splendid dish. About a half peck of greens, such as dandelion, burdock, horseradish, etc., are enough for a family of two or three. Use mostly dandelion with just a small portion of burdock and horseradish. Examine them carefully before putting water on them, then wash them through several waters until they are free from sand. Then put into a pan of water and let stand over night. When ready to cook the greens, put them in a large pot with enough boiling water to cover them, add salt, and let them cook about an hour or until very tender. Have ready on the stove a skillet with a cupful of meat fryings in it; when this becomes hot, lift the greens from out the salt water into the hot grease, and when scalded well they are ready for the table, where a little vinegar may be added, if liked. Another way is to boil them in salt water until tender, then cook a short time in broth in which meat has been boiled.-M. D. H., in Indiana Farmer. John Ellt's Indian Bible, of 1665, was on exhibition at the Woman's Board meeting, in Boston; having been loaned by the town of Nantick, by which it is owned. The book is an excellent state of preservation. Two other copies of this Bible are in existence, one in Connecticut, the other in Europe. HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE Discolored enamel saucepans are easily made bright, and clean by the use of powdered pumice stone. In putting down Turkish rugs always spread with the warp toward the light, in order to get the full effect of the sheen. If the bread knife is heated, new bread can be cut as easily as old, but the knife will eventually be ruined with the heat. Do not keep vinegar in a stone jug, for the acid may effect the glazing and be rendered unwholesome. A glass bottle is the best vinegar receptacle. Bamboo furniture, as well as willow and rattan, should be cleaned by scrubbing with salt and water. Use a small brush for the purpose. Wall paper comes now with cotton hangings to match, and bedrooms are charmingly fitted with the two. The chintz curtains and bedspreads are finished simply with old fashioned white ball fringe. All green vegetables keep their color better if boiled rapidly and left uncovered. Eating freely of watercress for several consecutive days will remove tartar of long standing from the teeth. To prevent the fringe of towels and dollies from breaking and wearing off snap the article when the fringe is damp. A cup of milk added to the water with which an oilcloth or oiled floor is to be washed gives them a lustre like new. The application of a bit of soap or the point of a lead pencil to a creaky hinge will cure its stiffness and elience its complaints. A small-sponge saturated with oil of lavender and hung-near the bed or a handkerchief moistened and laid near the invalid's couch will be found an efficient aid in driving away intrusive files. Sometimes the fishy smell will cling to knives and forks after oily fish, such as salmon, has been served. Cut a lemon, rub them with it and the disagreeable odor will vanish. In an article in Harper's Weekly Dr. T. Mitchell Prudden tells how to live longer than the scriptural three-score years and ten. One of the most urgent necessities of the coming years, he says, is education in personal hygiene. No college curriculum should be considered adequate which does not secure to the graduate such knowledge of himself, and of the plain requirements of sanitation as shall fit him to maintain as fully as may be a healthful physical condition. Public health officers must know more about sanitation than about politics; there must be educational institutions where their special duties can be learned; and an enlightened public sentiment must sustain them in their efforts to promote the general welfare. Dr. Prudden utters a warning note against the carpet, "that storehouse of floating filth"; and if dust could be got rid of, he says, "not simply set astir by the feather duster, we could largely reduce those affections of the respiratory organs which are a most serious and a growing menace to our modern life in towns to-day." According to the Chicago law directory for 1903, just issued, there are 4,702 attorneys in the city. In the last last year 120 attorneys left the city, 20 coached the practice of law and 32 died. The increase in the number of lawyers was 320. There are about twelve hundred law offices. In Chicago, an average of one suits of offices to an average of four attorneys. an Ee i ™:. . 5 QasN: A.

T, West --- ATE SHELLY'S CURVE near Moingona, In., has a history with which every one in this section was familiar in the early '80s, in fact at that time the whole country was ringing with the praises of "Iowa's Grace Darling," from whom the place takes its name. The fast mall was wrecked just at the approach to the Des Moines River bridge, which is at the foot of Moingona Hill. In 1881 Kate Shelly lived with her widowed mother on the banks of the river, which in ordinary time at that point was a comparatively insignificant stream. She was the daughter of a railroad man who had lost his life in an accident on the Northwestern road. Her mother and herself earned their own living and neither dreamed that some day Kate Shelly would be famous and the story of her heroism would be used in thousands of school rooms throughout the land to impress upon the little ones the importance of rising to the occasion when duty calls. From her humble cabin door she daily watched the trains rush by as they came with the momentum gained on the long, steep hill, or crowded on all steam to enable them to make the climb. No trainman ever went by without watching for the girlish figure sure to be on the lookout in the daytime, or without mentally marking in the night "that is Kate Shelly's home." She was always a favorite with the trainmen and was soon to become their idol. Instead of the modern structure which now spans the stream there was in those days a long wooden bridge. On the night when Kate Shelly spring into fame the ordinary insignificant stream had been swollen by heavy rains until it was a raging torrent. None of the railroad men ever dreamed that the water would ever come up high enough to reach the top of the bridge. Kate Shelly had been watching the rising flood all day and when night came she saw it was nearing the dancer line. The railway company did not have any watchman on duty, but the time was coming for Kate Shelly to repay the cheery greetings and many kindnesses of the railroad men. In the darkness she saw the waters lapping the timbers upon which the rails rested. The flood continued to rise, and as the time drew near for the passing of the big westbound night express the water was over the rails and the huge wooden structure was swaying in the torrent like a tree in a gale. Kate Shelly knew that the bridge in its weakened condition could never bear the weight of the engine and heavy train which would be due in a few minutes, rushing down the steepest grade on the Northwestern road at a speed of sixty miles an hour. out a speed of sixty miles an hour. The crew and passengers of that train must be saved and no one was there to do it but frail little Kate Shelly. The night was pitchy dark, the rain was coming in torrents, and with the water running over the rails and the bridge tottering to its fall the task of crossing it and flagging the approaching train was one which might induce the stoutest to shrink, but Kate Shelly was not built out of that kind of timber. Realizing that not a moment was to be lost, she got down on her hands and knees and foot by foot felt her way through the water over the swaying structure. The rumble of the heavy train, as it sped down the long hill, was already audible above the sound of the rushing water. It was slow work feeling her way over in the dark, but at last her feet were on solid ground. With all her remaining strength she hurried up the track to warn the approaching train of the danger. At the curve, which still bears her name, she caught the first sight of the gleaning headlight already dangerously close to the river. The engineer espied the girl on the track frantically gesticulating, and it required no second look to tell him that something was wrong. The heavy train with its human burden was speedily but none too soon brought to a standstill, and the lives of the engineer, train, crew and passengers were saved by the herolism of a girl, for no human being could possible have escaped alive had that ponderous engine and the heavy coaches once gone upon the bridge. Without Kate Shelly's warning the engineer could not have seen his danger in time to stop. As the engineer realized what the little girl whom he had watched so many times at the cabin door had done he gathered her in his brawny arms and hugged her for joy. The excitement over and the incentive which had nerved her, up gone, Kate Shelly was on the point of collapse. Strong arms bore her back to the sleeping car and passengers and crew did all that was possible for the wet and exhausted girl to whom they all owed their lives. A few minutes more and the bridge gave way under the pressure of the current and floated off down the stream. Railroad men not only on the Northwestern, but all over the land, subscribed liberally to a testimonial fund for the brave girl. The passengers of the train she had saved gave her a beautiful gold watch suitably inscribed, and the general public in many ways testified its appreciation of her act. Finally the railway company educated her. From that humble home where few knew her and noise dreamed of the latent heroism which was enveloped in a modest garb and still more modest demeanor, Kate Shelly stepped unconsciously into the glare of publicity and heard her praises sounded on every hand. She bore her honors modestly, continuing the even tenor of her way, meeting as they came life's pleasures and burdens as she had done in the 'one supreme moment. Such in brief is the story of the event which gave to this place the name of Kate Shelly's Curve—Omaha Bee. Mokll- is one of the islands of the Caroline group of the Western Pacific. The following grewsome story of an American who once lived on the island is vouched for by a writer in the Paul Malt Gazette: One day in November, 1860, a small Sydney truding schooner called off Mokll. The one white trader living on the island came off in his whaleboot. He was an American of about fifty years, bronze-faced, stout and muscular and quiet and unassuming. He had just agreed to supply the captain with some pigs, poultry and turtle in return for some European provisions, when the Chinese cook and steward came into the cabin. The trader looked at the man curiously for a moment. "Is he a Cantonese?" he asked the skipper. "Ay! he comes from the Kwang, Tung Province. I believe." "Thought so, by the run of his eye. Been with you long, sir?" "No. I only shipped him in Sydney this trip," replied the master. Presently the American rose. "Well, I guess I'll get along shore, captain. Perhaps it would be just as well if you let your steward come with me and pick out the plugs you want. Trust a Chihuahua to tell a good plig." The captain assented to the proposition, and in a few minutes the trader, accompanied by the steward, left the ship and went on shore. An hour afterward the boat returned, bringing the plugs, turtle and poultry, but without the Chinese steward. "Where's my steward?" asked the captain. "He's dead," replied the trader, calmly. "I shot him the moment I got him inside my house. Now, don't get mad, captain. Here's a man I've brought aboard who'll make just as good a steward as the Chow." "Why did you murder the man?" gasped the astonished scamman. "I didn't murder him. I shot him as I mean to shoot every Chinaman I come across in the South Seas. I can do it down here." Then he told his story: "When I was a lad of fourteen I sailed with my father in a big lump of a hermaphrodile brig called the Luba. We were in the China-Valparaiso trade. Left Hong Kong one time under charter to take thirty-six coolies to Tahiti. My mother, two younger brothers and my sister were aboard—had been sailing in the Luba for night on four years. Mate was my uncle. Regular family ship. We carried nine hands. I lived for'ard. One night, when we were two days out, the Chows made a sudden rush. I was aloft with the Swede staying the top-gallant sail. They first killed every man of the watch on deck, then they went below and slaughtered every living soul, for'ard and aft. In half an hour it was all over, and they lowered the two boats and cleared out. The Swede and I came on deck and this is what we saw: My father, mother and sister's heads were lying on the main deck. My two little brothers, five and seven years of age, were just trunks—hands, feet, heads gone—and my sister's body (she was seventen or more, maybe) was disemboweled and thrown across the fife rail. And every other body was hacked and slashed about, chunks of flesh lying around everywhere. "They had set the brig on fire before they left. The Dutchman and I put it out. We were picked up by a French barque the same day. "That's why I always shoot one of the Chinamen when I get a chance." ON TOUCHING SPOOKS. Hunted people experience various sensations while touching ghosts. The rough clothing of an invisible, spook is felt to brush against the skin of one young woman. Another spectre had an ey hand when grasped by a terrified woman. 'One woman on going upstairs at night saw a tall man directly in front of her. Recognizing him as a dear friend she reached out to touch him, but her hand simply penetrated space. Later she received word from India that this friend had died on the very date of the experience. Another woman, who selzed a ghost in her room, says that it felt "soft, like filmsy drapery," and seemed to be dragged from her by some invisible power as it sank into the floor by a wave of cold air, which chills those who draw near it; another is apparently warm. On very hot nights he is seen to mop his face with a handkerchief. A spook which lay down by a friend in bed placed its "frozen lips" against her cheek. That some phantoms have appreciable weight is perhaps indicated by the case of a certain woman visited by the shades of two dead friends. They appeared behind her while she was seated at her tea table, and, leaning upon her shoulders, rendered her immovable. She was unaware of what had happened until her daughter, across the table, cried out and gave the names of the intruders. HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS THE TEA'URN. For serving afternoon tea, where more than three or four persons are expected, the urn is about the most convenient apparatus for holding the beverage. The ten should be made in the kitchen, strained, then placed in the urn over the lighted lamp. It will keep hot and fresh for hours. Or if an urn is disliked as being old-fashioned and formal and cumbersome, why not make the tea on the table in a samovar. There is nothing smarter than a samovar, especially if it should happen to be an antique, and of splendid burnished brass or copper. Or, as a final resort, one may employ the tea kettle suspended over the little alcohol lamp. Anything is better than to fumble around with a teaball white half a score of guests watch the operation hungrily and moisten their lips in anticipation of the tea that does not come. —New York Tribune. It is always best to try simple methods of removing stains before resorting to strong chemicals, such as chloride of lime, which is one of the most powerful chemicals for removing stains. It is so strong that it may be very destructive if not used carefully. Iron rust may be easily removed by covering the stain with a thick layer of salt and then saturating it with a piece of lemon and laying it in strong sunlight to bleach. If the stain does not come out with the first application it certainly will with a second. Mildew is one of the most difficult of all stains to remove. Rub well with brown soap, then apply a paste of chalk and water and put the stained article in th hot sunshine. After two or three applications the mildew may be bleached out. To remove tea or coffee stains rub powdered borax thoroughly into the stained part and pour boiling water through it into a basin.—New York Tribune. RECOVERING SCREENS. A simple and inexpensive method of renovating an old screen is to cover it with heavy wall paper, either a plain paper of damask or sateen-like surface, or one showing a large floral pattern. The first proceeding is to measure a fold of the screen with great accuracy, and then, with very sharp scissors, to cut the paper to fit exactly inside the surrounding frame, which incloses the cloth of the previous covering. Have in roadness some thin glue and with this quickly brush over the edges of your paper. An inch or two is sufficient. If too much glue is applied it will cause the paper to break. Apply the strip defily to the screen, and with a soft, clean cloth press it firmly into contact. Proceed in like manner with each fold, laying the screen flat upon a large table for greater ease in working. Sometimes the edges do not require any kind of finish, but when this seems desirable a narrow border of gold Japanese leather paper or round brass-headed nails serve the purpose admirably. IRONING OUTFITS No less than twenty-one different kinds of fat-irons are on the market. An iron especially designed for the convenient use of travelers contains a little furnace in which prepared coal is burned. A single piece of fuel will provide heat sufficient to press out a bit of neckwear or some other little thing of the kind. The fuel is said to be easily carried about and convenient to handle. The hotel guest is provided for with an iron which contains an alcohol lamp, or, if failing the alcohol, which may be fitted over a gas burner and thus heated. Ironing outfits come done up in cases, and comprise a small felt-covered board, the iron and stand, a stick of beeswax, and a durable ironholder. Ironing boards which can be induced to masquerade as settees are a novelty, and there are also folding lapboards and tables for the same purpose. It is thought that the numerous cleansing preparations which enable women to remove spots and dirt from expensive gowns, of course necessitating pressing, have created a demand for small irons.—Chicago Post.

They possess an ambition that will not permit them to lead file and useless lives, and employers are sometimes ignorant of their financial independence. Here is a case in illustration: A young clerk in a downtown office where scores of clerks are employed had been reported ill for several days, and the head of the company, wishing to learn his prospects of recovery, looked over the home addresses of the other clerks. Calling in the one who, according to this list, lived nearest to the sick clerk—a young man drawing a salary of $23 a week—he asked if he would "stop off and see how Harry was getting along." "Certainly," was the reply; and then, after a little hesitation, he added: "I will have to make a special trip to Jersey to do it, as my wife and I are living at the Waldorf-Astoria this winter!" The astonished employer learned upon inquiry that his twenty-three-dollar-a-week clerk was a millionaire, who was unpentainously winning his way along with his less fortunate fellow clerks, all of whom were equally in ignorance as to his wealth—New York Times. E. Nesbit appears again in Alnister's with a story in the August number even more Interesting than "The Lie Absolute." It is entitled "The Force of Habit," and while it is, in fact, a psychological study, it is not in the least didactic; the picture is drawn delicately, and with the utmost skill, and with the same optimistic nature that pervades "The Red House" and "The Lie Absolute," by the same author. In this case, we sympathize with the victim, but we can't help loving his tormentor all the more. Reggle's Conclusion. "Oh, mamma!" shouted little Reggie, as he ran to his mother in great glee, "what do you think? I was just over there where they're putting up the circus, and they're filling the ring all full of breakfast food."—August Smart Set. John Oliver Hobbes, author of "The Gods, Some Mortals and Lord Wickenhain," "School for Saints," etc., etc., has a story in Alinslee's" for August, entitled "The Land of Regrets." It is in the form of a analogue, bright and sparkling, but pervaded by that mysterious atmosphere of India that seems to draw out so much that is strange and contradictory in human nature. Not that it appears in this story, which is really a pretty love story, but it seems to be present as a sort of vague background. The Common Fate. Dan-Cupid limped into his office, All battered and brushed was his head; A bandage and splints graced his person "I umplied a love-match," he said. —August Smart Set. Mary Proctor, who writes of "Five Hundred Little Worlds" in the August St. Nicholas, is a daughter of the great Proctor, the astronomer, and is living at present in New York city.

She Owed Her One Miss Passe—I should like to see a young man try to kiss me. Miss Young—You cruel thing!—August Smart Set. TRUTH WILL OUT.
