CANNING OF VEGETABLES. = The
chemical bath in which the cans of vege-
tables are immersed before their final
sealing is used only for the purpose of
getting temperature higher than the
boiling point of water. The necessity for
this high temperature is due to the fact
that the air contained in the can and its
contents is more thoroughly expelled, and
if the can is entirely void of air there can
be no change in the condition of its con-
tents. A boiling heat will expel all the
air, but .onger time is needed than with
a higher temperature. For domestic
purposes the bath of boiling water is suf-
ficient. 1t is only necessary to cook veg
etables (without salt) in the can, to
solder the cover on perfectly alright, to
make pin-hole in the cover, and then
immerse the can in boiling water bath
without covering the upper parts, and,
when it has been exposed to the boiling
heat for fifteen minutes, to seal with a
drop of solder upon the pin-hole.

THE ROSS ABDUCTION CASE.

After long waiting there appears 10 be
good reasons for believing that Charley
Ross, the child abducted from his par
ents last July, in Germantown, a suburb
Of Philadelphia, will be returned 10 them.
The circumstances Of his abduction are
fresh in the mind of the public: One
day in June, Charley, with his brother
Walter, were playing in the neighbour
hood Of their parents house. Charley
was four and Walter eight years of age.
Two men, lettering near, talked to the
boys and gave them toys and candy. On
the first of July, in the afternoon, be-
tween four and five O'Clock.
these two men drove up in
a buggy where the two boys
were again playing or walking and invi-
ted them to ride. The boys went willing
ly into the buggy; after riding some
time, one of the men told Walter to get
out aud buy some firc-crackers. The
boy got out and went into store, the
buggy dove on, and Charley Ross has
not been seen or heard of since.
Mr.. Ross, the father of the boy, search
ed diligently for his lost child, evoked
the aid Of the police and advertised, with
no success. The loss Of the boy and
mystery attending his carrying off ex-
cited the sympathy and the curiosity not
only OF the people OF Philadelphia but
The Cairo bulletin. [volume] (Cairo, Ill.) 1872-1878, 1874-12-20

Of the whole country. Mr.. Ross him
self offered three hundred dollars
reward for him and the authorities
of Philadelphia twenty thousand dollars.
These rewards induced the abductors TO
make known through the personal cob
umn Of the Philadelphia Ledger that they
were ready to negotiate. but nothing
definite was arrived at, owing, most
probably, to their fear of detection and
punishment Many rumors of
| the ohding of the missing boy
| hars been put in circulation in all parts
ofthe country. but they have all proved
false and his whereabouts has remained
an msolved mystery.
On the morning Of the litl, inst two
burglars were discovered in the summer
house of Judge Van Brunt, at the village
Of Bay Ridge. not far from Brooklyn.
The house was umoccupicd. but burglar
alarm extended TO the next house
owned by Judge Van Brunt's brother,
Mr.. Rulef Van Brunt. and by
this means the family of Mr.. Van Brunt
/
were made aware of the presence Of burg
lars in the unoccupicd house. Mr.. Van
Brunt. his son and workman. armed
with shot guns, proceeded to the house,
and after waiting awhile concluded TO 90
In to the burglars. The turning Of the
lock caused them to make rush for the
cellar. and shortly after, in their eff
forts to escape, one was shot dead almost
instantly aud the other mortaIly wounded.
The wounded man fingered about
three hours. lie gave hi- name as Jo-
seph Douglass; when Informed that his
companion was dead. and knowing his
| own wounds to be mortal. he confessed
that they were the abductors of Charley
Ross. When pressed to tell all about il.
he answered that 1.-THE boy''--but fear
or pain or stubborness kept him silent
further than this. and Inc died without re.
vealing the whereabouts of the lost boy.
But the burglars were noted characters,
| and since the tragic occurrence it has
transpired that they have long been sus
pected of being the abductors Of Charley
Ross, and Inspector Walling, Of New
York, has for months been engaged IN
working up the case Douglass wa
an unmarried man aged twenty-eigh
years, and his companion, William
Moshier was forty-five andl has wife ant
five children. II is thought that through
this woman all the mysteries of the Ros,
abduction ease will be made plain.
IL is now clear that money AID only
9 money was the cause of the abduction
{ Moshier and Douglass believing Mr.. Ros
to be a man of wealth.

THE KATIE KING FRAUD.

Certain of the Spiritualists of this city
declared yesterday that there was moth
ing In the pretended exposure of Katie
King,'n and that all we had said In The
BULLETIN was an ''infernal lie" With
people of this kind there is no Use 10 ar
que, and they cannot be persuaded to re-
turn from following after the most foolish
OF superstitions They are welded to their
idols, and il might be- the
part of wisdom to let them alone but 1t
does us good to see them squirm in their
efforts TO believe what is unreasonable
and exceedingly foolish.
"Katie King" whatever the Spiritual
lists may say, has been exposed, and only
very stupid or very foolish people will
deny the fact. And this is the manner in
which her ghostly robes were stripped
from her comedy body:
Mr.. and Mrs. Holmes, of Philadelphia,
are Spiritual mediums. All good and
true Spiritualists recognize them as such.
Through and by the aid oftheir medium
istic powers. female spirit who had
lived some hundred years ago, ''materi-
alized"--that is to say. assumed a body
that was visible to the naked eye, palpa-
BILE to the touch, and endowed
with the ability OF locomotion and oi
speec.. The most able Spiritualists
. ~ tie country saw This materialized
spit, touched her, and spoke to and with
;, hey were all convinced. Among
these Robert Dale Owen and DR..
Childs. Naptics saw the spirit wall,
out Of the caSlet and disappear into it.
They were dumtfoundcd, if they were not
convinced. VisitoI>gave to the spirit ar
ticles of jewclry, and Sther presents, with
which she vanished into thin air she
talked; and told strange things about
the life TO come: she was a wonder and a
mystery.
| But now comes the sequel. An incrcd-
ulous gentleman succeeded in tracing the
spirit to boarding house, and after long
continued effort succeeded in persuading
her to confess the deception she had prac-
tced, and to produce the gauzy dresses
she wore at the manifestations.
These dresses We're shown. with n large
quantity of the jewelry that had
been presented to the spirit" TO Mr..
Owen and to DIR. Childs; they were con,
'i..e~'- s'...s sss.s'O '."'iidii ilcsh ana
blood, and they had the moral courage
to say so, and acknowledge that they had
been deceived. Our very wise Spiritual
lists may believe they can help their cause
by denying the exposure of Katie King,
but in fact they will not-they will by such
stubbornness prove themselves to be
unreasonable and very foolish people.
Now, hen; since no sensible person
can doubt that reputable spiritual medi-
nms hHvebee caught practicIng materi-
alizing tricks ana passing them OF for
genuine manifestations, what confidence
can we place in any of the so-called
manifestations of spirit power? May
they not all be as tricky as the Katie
King trick?
