Mr.. Schurz would deny that Utica
matter only he hasn't got the time. He
is very busy running the New YORK
Ecening Post, and every minute is
worth money. But we are glad that
he takes the time to look after house
hold matters. 1t shows that, with
noble philanthropy and self-forgetful-
ness, he prefers helping the tired and
Hurried denizens of the kitchen to set
ting himself right before the public.
The following exhibits the nature OF
the work he is engaged upon, the eX-
tract being taken from the last Post
which has come to hand:
When the wash-boiler is put on the
stove take off the griddles only; the
other part will help to sustain the
weight Of the clothes, and the boiler
bottom will last long time.
When we consider that many % poor
woman has been lifting off the entire
top of the stove to put the boiler on,
and that they would have gone on in
this ruinous work for years but for
Mr.. Schurz's kindly warning, some
thing of the character of this and his
may be comprehended. No
wonder Milas Frank, of New Haven,
says: 81 have great admiration for

He Changed the Notes.

A young lady gave her ''youns man.

a boy ten cents to deliver the packages

AsStory that Scovflle Was Warned OF
Guiteaus Crime

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-Congress
man Strait of Minnesota has received :
telegram signed by the Postmaster
Sheriff and two prominent citizens o
st. Peter, saying that there is a woman
in that town who had been servant
in the family of Mr.. Scoville, Guiteau's
brother-in-law and counsel, last May
and that she had beard the possible
murder of General Garfield discussed by
members of the family at that time.
Mr.. Strait placed the telegram in the
hands Of the District Attorney and
vouched for the responsibility of the
persons who had signed the message.
1t has been privately reported here
for some time that Guiteau had COM
municated to the Scovile family his in
tention of killing the Presi Vent some
time before the I'd day of July, when
the murderous shot was fired. The
story goes that Guiteau wrote to his
sister, Mrs. Scoville, prior to the I'd of
July announcing his purpose. Scoville
was absent from Chicago at the time,
and his wife telegraphed for him to re-
turn immediately. Three kilograms
were sent him and forwarded, payment
guaranteed, eight miles from the near
est telegraph office into the country,
where he was stopping. He returned
to Chicago, and arrived there almost at
the moment that the news of the assas-
sination was telegraphed through the
country. Withour going home, he took
a train which left within an hour after
the shooting for Washington. When
he arrived here he said that he had
started from Chicago, having business
to transact before the Patent Office, and
did not contemplate being confronted
with such a calamity. That the SEQ
villes should have concealed their pre-
tentions after the shooting is not strange.
the theory that Mrs. Scoville
desired her husband to return from the
country on the LIST Of July because Gui-
teau had informed her of his intentions,
it is reasonable to infer that, if Scoville |
had been in Chicago on that day, know
ing the assassin's idiOsyncrasies, he
would have telegraphed here to have
Guiteau arrested, and the calamity
might have been averted.
