SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1911 ‘Though the courts have decided that “a wife cannot steal from her husband,” there is a tusband in “The City of Magnificent Distances," who demurs. He awoke the other night and found his wife going through his pockets; he said nothing, but draw- ing a revolver from under his pillow he shot at her twice without hitting her, The shooting awoke a nearby policeman and he forced an entrance to the house, arrested the husband, and he was kept in durance vile for the rest of the night. At the trial hext morning, womanlike, she refused to prosecute her husband, and he was released. “We presume she was ashamed of his poor marksmanship, and promised not to tempt him to a further exhibition of it by a repeti- tion of the act that caused the near tragedy. This, however, ought to serve as a warning to other spouses who have the habit, that the afore- mentioned court decision, or law, is one that few husbands feel bound to respect. "Tis astounding to think of the strides that medical science and sur- | 4 PRESIDE NT TAFT. Who is Now on His 13,000 Mile Trip to “Win the West.” J. ge im. / a i a oe i wee ‘ oe ae. Ss.

Few conditions of either the human mind or body are deemed in- capable of improvement now-a-days, We all know the story of the making of “God's last and best gift to man,” out of a rib, but that was the work of the Great Creator and was most won- derful and beautiful to behold. The latest use to be made of a rib that has come to our notice is the making of a jawbone for a man who lost his by an operation, and now is to be re- stored by using a portion of one of his ribs. Since the loss of his original Jawbone, the patient has been unable to partake of any solid food, but he now lives in hope of eating a substan- tial Thanksgiving dinner with the new . PURE FOOD. ‘The crusade that has been going on against impure food for a long time has resulted in much good to con- sumers. It has been the means of bringing to light the nefarious man- ner in which manufacturers have preyed upon and deceived the public. Of course the big concerns and trusts have thrown all the possible obstacles in the way of the progress toward the protection of the health and lives of the people but despite their opposition the march toward protection from un- scrupulous manufacturers has been going on and each day brings us near- er the goal. Heretofore the laws have only punished by fines, for its in- fraction, but if the law makers will go a step farther and add imprison- ment to the punishment of offenders against the law, there will be a much more rapid progress toward the desired end. Comparatively few people are aware of the extent to which adulter- ations and substitutions are used. While the labels are supposed to’ tell the character of the contents of the package they are really no guarantee. For instance a big vinegar manufac- turing concern of a big city sold vine- gur under a label that justified the purchaser in the belief that he was getting pure, apple cider vinegar when us a matter of fact the vinegar of that concern in question did not contain one drop of pure, apple cider vinegar. ‘The destroying of 175 erates of rotten PSS eggs which were discovered in cold storage and destroyed by the officers of the law but no one was fined or imprisoned. There are hundreds of dangerous drugs and concoctions sold every day that carry death and de struction with them yet nothing is done further than a fining of» the parties caught dispensing them. 11 we will take the offenders and fill our prisons with them a marked de- crease will soon be noticed in the sale or such impure things to be placed in the human stomach. A call has been made for the meet ing of the Republican National Com: mittee at Washington, D. C. on Dec. 1z, ‘There will be much for the com- mittee to consider other than the taveting place of the National Conven- ton and the meeting will be continued until these matters have been com: pieted. It will require very careful consideration to adjust matters sue- punatelly. There is an undertaker in one of. the big cities of this country named Deal, who advertises a $150 funeral for 875, and further announces in his ad- vertisement that nothing is cut but his price. We presume he thinks this ought to induce a lot of the residents to take advantage of his cut rates and shufile off the mortal coil. - Just think of it, a chance to get buried for half price! As for ourselves, we are not anxious to get in on this deal, we'd a ‘deal rather wait a while, even if we have to pay full price for our procras- tination. Dr. Frederick A. Cook, who claims that he at least got as near to the North pole as any man did, has gone to Europe to attempt to prove his claim. The ubiquitous doctor, like Banquo's ghost, will not down. ‘The divine Sarah Bernhardt, who knows something about almost every- thing else, is about to learn to play golf. -Just think of it, and at her age too. We presume she intends to dem- onstrate that age is nothing, and blood will tell, And new Spain is in the throes of a revolution. ‘The outlook for the formation of a republic is good.

During the ten years which followed the census of 1900 the population of the United States increased 21 per cent,, but the number of farms did not keep pace with the increase in popu- lation. From 5,737,372, in 1900, the number grew to 6,340,357, an increase of 602,985, or 10.5 per cent. For the whole United States this is the lowest rate of increase which has been noted since the number of farms was first recorded in 1850. ‘The increase in the total acreage devoted to agriculture was only 35,187,000 acres, or 4.2 per cent. The actual area in farms was 888,592,000 acres in 1900 and 873,728,- 000 acres in 1910, Improved land, however, increased more rapidly than the total farm acre- age or number of farms, the advance being from 414,499,000 acres in 1900 to 417,448,000 acres in 1910, a gain of 62, 949,000 acres, or 15.2 per cent,, in ten years. In striking contrast with the slow growth in the number and acreage of farms and the area of improved land during the ten ‘fears {s the enormous rise which hag:come about in the value of farm property. Farm land, exclu- sive of buildings, which was valued at {$13,058,008,000 in 1900, had more than doubled before 1910, being then re- turned ag having a value of $28,386, 770,000. ‘The enormous increase here recorded of $15,328,762,000 represents Ag APD (THERE 18 My ip a Nt ges | VE FOUND Let bis SNMRS| A Berrer RES 1K @x \ vos Dam Sy ike in Paks END wy T= navy department recently has been particularly unfortunate in the resignations of young officers who have just finished their education at ‘West Point or Annapolis at govern- ment expense. In the last few weeks elght or ten midshipmen and ensigns have presented their resignations with reasons sufficient to cause the depart- ment to accept them, Both the war and navy departments are periodically confronted with this question. ‘The withdrawal of young officers trom the service before they have giv- en the government some return for their education is discouraged by both departments.

Of all the claims in American history these are the most associated with great events and great sacrifices. These spoliations occurréd during the trouble between this country and France at the close of the eighteenth century. There was no declared war between the two countries, but almost a state of war. There were two frig- ate actions, in which the American frigate under Truxton won both fights, but never a declaration of war. The whole number of American merchant vessels despoiled by France was 2,290. ‘The original estimate of their value ‘was $20,000,000. Some’ $7,000,000 has been paid, but this is all. France was Hable for ‘these losses. There are in this batch of British- American pecuniary claims some that are based on grants of lands to Indi- ans by the British government in co- lonial days. These are only some of the stories of adventure, great for- tunes made and lost, captivity, depri- vation and suffering, even or humor, figuring the story of the claimant lay- ing his appeal before Unclé Sam at ‘Washington.

Of the factors contributing to this increase in the average value of land the most important 1s doubtless that of advancing farm prices of agricultu- ral products. This has increased the income-producing power of the farm ‘and correspondingly influenced the selling price or value of farm land. It is probable also that in calculating the value of farm lands it has become ‘customary to capitalize the income- ‘producing power at a lower rate of in- ‘terest than formerly. This might be ‘true, despite the fact that interest ‘rates in general have probably not fallen, because of the reduction in the risk of the farming business, Another important factor operative in inereasing the total and average value of farm land throughout the United States has been the cost of im- proving what was previously unim- proved land, In connection with the increase in the average value of farm land, it is interesting to note the fact that in the last decade, as for many decades previously, there has been a much more rapid increase in urban than in rural population. number of reasons which disqualify an officer, one especial disqualification being susceptibility to seasickness, which necessitates resignation of many young men, During the last year, it is sald at the war department, very few cadets or second lieutenants have presented their resignations. Maj. Gen. Leonard ‘Wood, chief of staff of the army, has refused to permit a Heutenant of thé cavalry to get out of the army to en- gage in civil pursuits because he was about to be married, He, however, granted the young man a three months’ leave of absence for his honeymoon. The lottery is a profitable scheme in Cuba and the returns to the war de partment show that last year the Cu- ban government received from this sourée $8,800,000 profit, which repre- sents ten per cent. of the entire an- nual receipts from all sources. But despite the revenue the Cuban government is seriously contemplating gradual abolition of the lottery in view of the enormous weight of evidence to show that it is impoverishing the laboring classes and creating great distress generally.

When William T. Vernon decided to give up his position as register of the treasury he wanted to take away with him as a souvenir of his public service the first bank note on which he had put his signature. All the money issued in the form of bank notes while he had been registrar had, as a matter of law, his signature on it. The money, having been put in circulation, says the Popular Magazine, had been sent back to the treasury, redeemed by new notes, and then had been marked for destruction in the macerate warehouse, the only way he could get the note he desired was to redeem it in the treasury. He had figured that he could afford to one dollar for the old, worn-out dollar note. Having been informed by the treasurer's office that he could get the first note he had ever signed if he would call for it and redeem it with new money, he went to see the treasurer. "Here you are. Mr. Vernon," said that official. "All right," said Vernon. "I'll redeem it." He had already taken out his pocket book when he chanced to glance at the old bank note. Then he swayed as if he had been struck in the face. That old note called for ten thousand dollars. NOTICE.

Clove Apples--Select hard, dark red apples; pate and halve them unless too large, then quarter; make a heavy syrup with just enough water to dissolve the sugar; boil up and skim; put in part of the apples at a time; first stick one or two whole cloves into each piece of apple according to size; summer gently till clear; then remove each piece with a fork to glass jars; when all the apple has been cooked drop in the syrup the red parings, which will give a delicate tint, and cook a few minutes longer, or until it jellies when dropped on a cool plate; then remove the parings and pour syrup over the fruit. Serve these with roast pork. Sweet Peach Pickle—Peel eight pounds of freestone peaches that are hard and firm; cut in half and remove stones; make a syrup of three pints cider vinegar and four pounds brown sugar, one tablespoon each of ground cinnamon, cloves and allspice; put in fruit and cook till clear; then remove to glass jars, and allow syrup to boil 15 minutes longer to thicken; pour over fruit; do not fill jars too full of peaches, as syrup must be added. This is an excellent accompaniment to wine. Sliced Cinnamon—Stem, wash and drain four quarters of syrup currants; add three and a half pounds cane sugar, one pint vinegar, one tablespoon each of ground cinnamon, allspice and cloves; boll one hour, stirring often; put in glasses and, when cold, gel. This should be thick as jelly and is fine with cold meats. Spliced Tomatoes—Wash, wipe and wield seven pounds of fruit, allow three pounds brown sugar, one-half ounce each of stick cinnamon and whole cloves, a piece of ginger root three or four inches long and a quart of vinegar; heat sugar and vinegar clover five minutes; stick the clove to tomatoes; also pick them lightly to tomatoes and add them to the syrup, also the spices, and simmer gently till tomatoes are clear; then put into glass jars; cook syrup down quite thick and pour over; seal when cool. Tomato Relish (Uncooked)—One peck of ripe tomatoes, peeled and chopped; drain off part of the juice; chop one medium head of celery, six green and add half a cup red peppers, and add half a cup of white mustard juice, half a cup of salt, one and a half cups grated horseradish and five cups of vinegar. Mix thoroughly, bottle and seal. ALL AROUND the HOUSE Coffee jelly, made with milk, is delicious. A cloth moistened with alcohol will clean piano keys. To break an apple, use a thread pulled through it. Mammals will bring out the brilliancy of cut glass. Clean linoleum with warm water and polish with milk. Stirilize jars and all utensils before putting up fruit. Linoleum on the kitchen table will last longer than oilcloth. When some one is burned or scalded, apply lime water and olive oil, hot and half. Patches stewed with pineapple, make one of the most delicious desserts of the season. The best way to keep rats away to prevent any accumulation of garbage around the house. Clean old glass by pouring strong ammonia on it; scrub well with a brush and rinse in cold water. Grape Pie. Make a rich pie crust the same as you do in making any other pie. Wash the grapes and remove skins. Then fill the pie with the skins and sprinkle two pounds of flour and one and one teaspoon of baking soda on the pie crust. Put on top crust and bake. The maining part of the grapes may be used for jelly. Rice Sponge. One-quarter cup of rice boiled 1 hour in water enough to cover. Drain and boil in milk for another hour. Have ready ½ cup of gelatine soaked in enough milk to cover. When rice is done add gelatine to the mixture and add ½ cup of sugar and then cool add ½ cup of whipped cream, tablespoon of sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Put in mold to set. Serve with cream. Bakers' Rolls. Well dry two pounds of flour, add two tablespoons of yeast, a little salt and half a teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda dissolved in water. Mix very lightly together with a pint of milk and water. Knead it well, and set it on a baking sheet covering the bowl in which the dough is with a towel. Then make it up into about 12 rolls. Bake in a quick oven one-quarter of an hour. Little Ducks. Cut some mutton into strips about three inches long and an inch and a half wide, without fat. Season with pepper and salt, roll up and put in a skewer to fasten. Put in a pan with just enough water to barely cover, and bake for about half an hour. Take out onto a platter, and thicken the gravy. Serve with mashed potato. Chop very fine one pound lean beef round. Cover with one-half pint cold water. Stand in cold place one hour. Set over hot water, stir till liquid begins to turn color. Strain, add pinch To reheat, set cup in pan of hot water. Defective Page TRAIN'S LEAVE TICKETS "A PEACH—SAY YOU'RE THE WOOL ORCHARD! "A LITTLE- MORE TEA?" TEMPTING MARKS FOR BOLTS Lofty Spires of Churches Are Dangerous Because They Are Often Struck by Lightning. The reaction from the intense heat of the past few days, which in various sections has taken the form of electrical storms of almost phenomenal destructiveness, has played exceptional role with the churches of New England. My mind as a half dozen have been struck by lightning in this state alone, and in almost every instance the structure has been of the familiar style of architecture that was instituted by our forefathers and has been more or less cherished ever since. Somewhat squerely bolt, with a lofty spire, the New England meeting house has been a familiar feature to the England worshiper wherever he might be, himself, and though all else was strange, that made him feel that he was in his own country. The lofty spire, however, has proved an element of danger according to our recent experience. In almost every instance, as the reports run, the bolt "struck the steeple" and traveled downward. The communities, especially where the buildings are above most of the surrounding buildings and are crowned by a tapering tower as high as the main structure, it seems to offer a special challenge to the raging elements, whether they take the form of wind or lightning. The "White church" at West Springfield, which suffered yesterday, and been struck twice previously during past ten years, and in Wilbraham, the field and other places it was upon whose spires that the destructive force alighted—Boston Transcript. Model Prison for Woman. One important result of woman suffrage in New South Wales—the changed conditions of prison life for women, is being watched with interest by many countries. The new penitentiary for women at Long Bay is probably the most up-to-date comfortable and even luxurious place of its kind in the world. It is fitted with hot and cold baths, with well-ventilated rooms in pleasing colors, electric lighted and stocked, suitable reading matter. Gardenening, dressmaking, cooking and washing are taught. If incarceration is supposed to be an example to wrong-doers, there is undoubtedly a point at which comfort in prisons may be carried too far. On the other hand, it is doubtful whether any one is ever blinded by kind treatment if intelligent. The Australian state has set a good norm regarding these unfortunate women as in need of treatment rather than of punishment. "THE TRAVELING SALESMAN." The Next Attraction at the Grand Opera House. The greatest comedy success of the century, "The Traveling Salesman," by James Forbes, author of "The Chorus Lady" and "The Commuters," will be presented by Henry B. Harris, at the Grand the coming week, Oct. 15. The show will feature popular prices. This announcement is among more than passing interest among the theatre-goers of this city as "The Traveling Salesman" has been healed for months as the greatest laugh-provoker of the present decade. The show will be one of the famous theatrical producing manager, Henry B. Harris, and his name is always received as a trade-mark of excellence all over this country. So the announcement that his great success will be made is to be presented in this city at popular prices, for the first time since James Forbes, its author, evolved the amusing play, will be most welcome to playguys whose pocketbooks sometimes cannot afford the high scale of the charges charged for big New York successes. "For the past three years, "The Traveling Salesman" has been played all over this country at the two dollar scale, but this season, Mr. Harris has been playing the jolly comedian, popular scale of cost, at the same time presenting the comedy with the same excellence of production and strength of acting company as has marked all previous performances.

ROMAN AQUEDUCT IS SAVED Archaeology and Modern Enterprise Clash in Seville, Spain, and Former Wins Victory. Archaeology and enterprise are clashing at Seville. The town draws much of its water supply through the Canos de Carmona, a Roman aqueduct still in good order, though many of the arches have been, filled up in order to strengthen it. The aqueduct with the closed arches blocks a suburban district which Sevillan speculators wish to develop, and the town authorities have decreed that it shall be torn down and the water conveyed through iron pipes instead. This has aroused a storm of indignation among antiquarians and art lovers through history and that adid have petitioned the ministry to arts to check the vandalism. The attack has been forbidden for a time least. More interest in the matter would be felt, undoubtedly, if visitors to Seville were aware of the existence of a Roman edifice through which water has flowed for over 2,000 years, but even Bacchae seems to have overlooked it. Electricity and Toothache A new cause for toothache and certain nervous diseases has been found by an European physician in the high tension electrical currents that are produced in the course of wireless telegraphy. This same savant is quoted as predicting a general increase in the nervous airways traceable to this disease. He believes that the neuronic energy is also affected that a low grade nervitis is which progresses according to each patient's general physical condition, hygienic surroundings, occupation, habits, etc. If these make for health, the individual may slowly overcome the particular nervous manifestation caused by the electricity which articulates, it generates the surrounding atmosphere. In the environment is faulty and the metabolism is failing, the low grade nervitis extends, and sooner or later assumes the form of some aggrated nervous disorder. Insuring His Safety. Judging by a conversation overheard on a Staten Island ferryboot, untillness as well as neatness has its rewards, says the New York Times. A literary man, so it was reported by one speaker, had married the women he did because he happened one day to peep at her top bureau drawer. "That can hardly be possible," said the other woman. "I have seen that drawer myself, and since top bureau drawers were invented there never was such a topsy-turvy drawer as she kept." "So, but that is just why he married her," said the other. "He felt convinced that a woman who kept her own things in such a glorious confusion would not make his life miserable by trying to straighten up his desk." 935 Satisfies Thirst THAT's it.

FINDING THE COMSTOCK LODE Far Reaching Results of the Rich Strike of Silver Made in June, 1859. "You've struck it, boys." Thus said Henry Paige Comstock to Peter O'Riley and Patrick McLaughlin, who were his fellow prospectors in a search for gold in Six Mile canyon, now the present Virginia City, the capital of Nevada. The date was June 10, 1859. In that remote spot in the American wilderness, by these three obscure men, was made on that day a discovery destined to affect the current of American politics for a score of years, says a writer in the Atlantic Monthly, and to have for long a disturbing influence on the world's finances. The thing which was "struck" on that June day of 1859 was the vein covering what came to be known as the Comstock lode, in which were hidden the richest deposits of silver ever found anywhere on the globe. Their development, years afterward, simultaneously with that of the silver mines of Colorado, started the downward flood in the price of silver, which broke the old ratio between the money metals, changed the monetary system of the leading nations from the double to the single gold standard; incited the movement beginning in 1877, under the leadership of Richard P. Bland, for the reopening of the mints in silver on the same terms as to gold; led hence to the passing of the Bland-Allison limited silver-coinage law of 1878, and to that of the Sherman silver-bullion-deposit act of 1890; and was the issue which split the two great parties and made havoc among the smaller ones in 1896, resulting in the act of 1900, which gave statutory recognition to the gold standard in the United States.
