' ^ Prom an "Open Letter" by Frank Parfer.no In tho PjpntlirV fWhen Irving Was Turned Down. Bram Stoker, who for many years was connected with the management of (he late Sir Henry Irving, tells of an amusing incident which occurred during the player's tour of the Middle West. It appears that Irving, in order to break a "long jump" from Chicago to another city, was desirous of securing for one night the theatre of a town in Indiana. Accordingly, Stoker wired the individual who was both proprietor and manager of the playhouse in question, requesting that Sir Henry be given a night's engagement. * - Otftl/or rortiiv. in a snort wnii^ ml. WW4VW *ww. fed the following: "Does Irving parade?' When shown this, the distinguished Briton was much amused. He directed Stoker to reply that "Irving was a tragedian, not a minstrel." The further reply came, "Don't want Irving unless he parades.": 9 , ? A BOY'S BREAKFAST there'a a Natural Food That Makes It's Own Way. P?. V There's a boy up in Hoosick Falls, N. Y., who is growing into sturdy manhood on Grape-Nuts breakfasts. It might have been different with him, as his mother explains: "My eleven-year-old boy Is large, well developed and active, and has been made so by his fondness for GrapeNuts food. At five years he was a very nervous child and was subject to fret . quent attacks of indigestion, which used to rob him of his strength and were very troublesome to deal with. He never seemed to care for anything 9 for his breakfast until I tried GrapeNuts, and I have never had to change from that. He makes his entire breakfast of Grape-Nuts food. It is always relished by him and he says that it satisfies him better tban the ordinary kind of a meal. "Better than all he is no longer troubled with indigestion or nervousness, and has got to be a splendidly developed fellow since be began to use /IMAMA V.tin " VomA or?t?Ar* Kw W?pc-l\ui3 iUUU. ru Postnm Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

About l'cg Dolling. Many people boil eggs to their liking by placing the eggs in cold water, which is allowed to coine to the boiling point. One housekeeper at least uses the same method for poached eggs, taking tliem from the almost boiling vater perfectly cooked. On Removing Stains. * Every housekeeper should remember that soap is an alkali and sets vegetable and other stains. Therefore, all stains should be removed before the articles are put in a washtub. The sooner the stain is treated the more readily it will yield to thfc treatment. Pour boiling waterthrough fruit stains. Where obstinate, soak in a solution of oxalic acid. Wash vaseline stains in alcohol; paint in turpentine, kerosene or alcohol; varnish, in alcohol; grass or other green vegetable stains in alcohol, kerosene or molasses. For sb'' from blood, meat juice and whil. egg use cold water. In the case of milk, cream, sugar or sirup stains soak in cold water and | wash with soap and water. Tar, wheel grease or machine oil stains should be fubbed with lard and allowed to stand a few minutes. Then they should be washed with soap and cold water. Tea, coffee or cocoa stains should be removed with boiling water; if obstinate, with a weak solution of oxalic acid. Use oxalic acid for iron rust spots, and for ink stains use lemon juice and salt; then hang in the sun. If the ink does not disappear at first, repeat the operation until it does. When oxalic acid is used care must be taken that the article is thoroughly rinsed to remove every particle of acid. When boiling water is used, stretch the stained parts over the bowl and pour absolutely boiling water from a bight until the stain disappears. Be careful that the boiling water does not touch any silk embroidery or other delicate colors.?New j Haven Register. T-=^iTw-." .?

THE WORK OF ROBBERS Heinous Crime Was Committed Near Dothan, Alabama?Citizens Are Aroused and Thirsting for Vengeance. Weltering in a big pool of tbeir own blood, their heads almost severed from their bodies, the dead bodies of J. M. Christmas, his wife and son were discovered at an early hour Wednesday morning at their home near Cottonwood, Ala. The crime was commit ted some time during Tuesday night, and robbery is supposed to have been the motive. Details are rather meagre, and it is believed that no definite clew has yet been obtained. The murdered man and his family were very popular in the Cottonwood neighborhood, and residents of that section took prompt action. A telephone message to Marianna, Fla., brought bloodhounds, and deputy sheriffs from Dothan went to the scene. A reward of $1,000 for the capture of the perpetrators has already been offered. Feeling against the murderers is intense, and if they are captured a lynching is not Improbable. Some terrible crimes have darkened the history of the vicinity, but none quite so revolting as this, and the people who have known Mr. Christmas and his family as neighbors all their lives are possessed with anger, which may prove unrestrainable. SM00T PROBE RESUMED. Hearing In Rotten Mormon Case Is Again Under Way Before Special Senate Committee. / Hearings in the case of Keed Smoot were resumed at Washington Wednesday before the committee on privileges and elections. Professor Walter M. Wolfe, formerly teacher of geology in Brigham Ycung college, at Logan, Utah, and an apostle of the church, was the only witness during the session. Professor Wolfe was asked to tell what he knew of the alleged plural marriage of Professor Cluft and Florence Reynolds, both teachers of Provo, while on a trip to Mexico. Professor Wolfe said he had been informed by Cluff that he was married to Florence Reynolds, and that they L'ved together on that trip. President Smith, he said, referred to Florence as "Sister Cluff." "Twelve times," answered Professor Wolfe, when asked how many times he had been through the endowment house or temple, he explained as the endowment house was torn down many years ago. "Did you take nhlip-aHons or oaths when YOU ^ ? w went through?" asked John G. Carlisle, who appeared for the prosecution. "Every time," he replied. Asked to detail them, he said there had been obligations of chastity, sacrifice and vengeance. The witness said that this cath had been taken: "You and each of you do covenant and pray, and never cease to pray God to avenge the blood of the prophet on this nation." Another plural marriage was spoken of by the witness. This was between Ovena Jorgensen, a student at Brigham Young Academy and "Brother" Okey. Professor Wolfe said the girl came to his house and gave ar. excuse as an absence from school that she had gone to Juarez, Mexico, and had been married in polygamy. This had been with the consent of State President George Q. Cannon. SEEKING SOUTHERN HOMES. Prospective Settlers from North Vis' itlng Georgia and Florida. More than a hundred hemeseekers arrived in Atlanta a few days ago over the Southern railway from Chattanooga. These homeseekers were for the most part farmers from Ohio, Indiana and Illinois and the northwest The entire party continued on to points in Florida and South Georgia. For this purpose the homeseekers were taken to Savannah and Jack-, sonville, from which places the party will break up for the purpose of visiting many sections of the wire grass and the fruit country. DECIDE ON BIG BOND ISSUE. Southern Asks Stockholders for Two Uim/Jr?H Millions. ! Announcement Is made in New I York that the Southern railway company has decided to ask the stockholders to authorize an issue of $200,000,000 development and general mortgage four per cent bonds. Of this amount $16,000,000 will be issued immediately for betterments. WAS QUINN OUSTED? ] Because of His Partiality Toward Greene and Gaynor, is Question Savannah People Want Settled. Lieutenant Colonel J. B. Quinn, who, for three years, has been ih charge of the river and harbor work of the Savannah district, under the chief engineers of the army at Washington, has been ordered from duty at Savannah, to relieve Major Chittenden, at Sioux City, Iowa, and assume nharfria nf envernmemt works on the Missouri river and in the Yellowstone park. Major Cassius E. Gillette is ordered to.succeed him. Now comes a story that this transfer was directed by the war department at the request of the department of Justice, and that the motive of the request grows out of the fact that Colonel Quinn took a view contrary to that of the department of justice and that of Major Gillette and others connected with* the government relative to the improvements made on the rivers and harbors of the Savannah district by Greene and Gaynor, who are now on trial in thji, federal court on charges of conspiracy with former Captain O. M. Carter to defraud the government out of millions. Colonel Quinn dared, some months ago, to give an interview, in which he stated that it was his opinion as an engineer that the work done by Greene and Gaynor was according to specifications in their contracts and of a satisfactory character. He has been summoned as a witness for the defense in the present trial, and in due time is to take the stand. This evidence will be directly contrary to that of Major Gillette, whom Colonel Quinn succeeded, and who is relied upon as one of the strongest witnesses the government will have. Only Thursday did this condition of affairs become generally known, and at once the Savannah chamber of commerce adopted the following re3olvdons, addressed to Senator Bacon and Senator Clay: "Since forwarding our former resolutions, it has come ,to our knowledge from a most authentic source that the removal of Colonel Quinn from this field of labor was at the instance and on the request of the department of justice. "It is obvious that the last named department has no knowledge of the engineering work of the Savannah harbor, or of the administration of the same by Colonel Quinn, therefore such request clearly cannot be based on any objection to Colonel Quinn as an engineer or to the administration of the harbor work here. "Knowing that at this juncture any change in engineers will be very injurious to the interests of this port, and in making this statement we wish to say that we intend no reflection upon any one, we respectfully request the senators from Georgia to take all necessary steps to ascertain the facts pertaining to this removal, and to this ow/i r?nll fni- nil r?orrpKnnnrienoe ^UU IV VU-14 A.WA VM*. w - ? \ and documents relating to tliis matter, so Colonel Quinn may be retained here if possible." SEA ISLAND GROWERS ACT. Hold Important Meeting and Decide on Reduction *of Acreage. An important meeting of the Georgia and Florida Sea Island Cotton Growers' Association was held in Valdosta Thursday. Bight Florida and ten Georgia counties were represented by delegates, and a number of. others by proxies. The association resolved to reduce the sea island acreage this year 25 per cent, the vote being overwhelmingly in favor of this reduction. The reduction, however, is not to apply to those who plant less than eight acres. The discussion brought out the fact that something like 16,000 ' - 1 - - - = J 1 .Trill V.Q DUieS U1 ibtiiA IS.auu wnuu nil! carried over into next season.
