ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 2S.-Leopold

rear of 40 Franklin avenue, murdered
his wife last night and then ended his
own miserable existence by sending q
ball through his brain. There are two
children, girls, aged seven and fifteen
years respectively, left behind. Five
pistol shots were the signal that told OF
the deed at quarter past ten O'Clock,
and the reports were followed the next
instant by piercing screams of "murder!"
The house where the tragedy was enacted
stands on the east side of the alley be-
tween Fourth and Fifth streets, and
within three minutes from the time Of
the shooting it was crowded with an
eager, surging throng of people. De-
tective Browning and Officer st. John
were soon on the scene.
Several excited persons directed the
officers up stairs, dilapidated pair of
outside steps that terminated on narrow
porch extending across the rear part of
the building occupied by several families.
The south apartment was the one in
dicated, and without waiting for any
further Information Detective Browning

Women Are Honest.

Although hundreds of Women hold
positions of financial trust in the
country, we have yet TO hear of one of
them being guilty of embezzlcment or
detalcation, says the Albany yeurfaat.
Inc evidence clearly sustains the posi-
tions of these who believe that women
are qualified, morally, physically and
intellectually, for the handling of
money in stores or in banks. Gen,
Spinner, who first introduced women
into the United States Treasury as
CLERK: and accountant, left on record
Il striking testimonial, to the efficiency
and integrity of the sex, and no one
ever hada better opportunity to study
the question than he, who at one time
had 1000 women under his direction
engaged chiefly in handling money.
lie testiIlcs that they count more ac-
curately and rapidly than men, and
their ability to detect counterfeits
proved to be superior in almost every
test, that they were without an eXcep-
ton honest, and were invariably more
careful and painstaking in their work.
Complaints of inaccuracy and care.
lcsSneSs on the part of men were made
frequently during Gen. Spinners adj
ministration Of the United States
Treasury, but such complaints against
lady clerks were few The shrewdest
and quickest detcctOrS of counterfeit
currency were women, and in case of
dispute as to the genuneness of money
Gen, Spinner invariably took the
of a Miss Grandin, who was
for u long time employed in his bureau.
In speaking of her ability in this par
ticular one day Gen. Spinner said: IF
| were a believer in clairyoyance | |
should say that she possessed that |
power; but | am not, 50 | call it in.
stinct." Although there are several |
thousand women employed by the |
Government as clerks, accountants,
po5tmistreSseS, and in other capacities,
not enc has ever proved uniaithful to
her trust. Many have been discharged
for incapacity and for other reasons,
but never one for dishonesty, These
points are the consideration of mer-
chants and bankers, particularly now
when there seems to be an epidemic of

In the tropical climates far distant
from high mountains, as neither nat
ural snow nor ice can be obtained, re-
course is had to the cold generated by
evaporation and the comparative cool
ness of the air little before daybreak
to manufacture ice in large quantities,
and thus to supply Il most grateful
luxury at moderate price Ice is thus
simply manufactured in the large way
ut Benares, Allahabad and Calcutta, in
the East Indies, where natural ice has
never been seen.
On large open plain an excavation
is made about thirty feet square and
two deep, on the bottom of which sugar
cane or maize stems are evenly strcwed
to the height of about eight inches.
On this bed are set rows of small, shall
low, unglazel earthcrn pans, so porous
that when filled with water the out
sides are Immediately covered with
thick dew oozing through them.
Toward the dusk Of the. evening, the
pans, previously smearcd with butter,
are filled with soft water, generally
boiled, and let remain during the
night.
In the morning before sunrise the
ice makers attend and collect from each
pan a crest of ice more or less thick
that adheres to its inner side, and it is
put into baskets and carried without
loss of time to the common receptacle,
which is a deep pit in high, dry sit
uation, lined first with straw and then
with old blanketing, where it is beaten
down and congealS into a solid mass.
The crop Of ice varies extremely,
sometimes amounting to more than
half the contents Of the pan, at other
times scarcely pellicle. Clear and
serene weather is the most favorable
for its production, whatever may be
the sensible heat of the atmosphere
The cold generated by the rapid evap-
Grafton round every part of the pan is
the cause of this congelnton. When
used for the table the ice is either add
ed to the liquor to be cooled, or is put
into large vessel mixed with salt or
nitre, and the sherbet, creams and the
ike, intended to he frozen, are inclosed
in thin silver vessels and immersed in
the mixture In this way ices are Sc
cured for the table, when the heat in
the shade is very commonly above one
hundred degrees.
. At the ice mandatory at Benares
about one hundred thousand pans are
reckoned to he exposed at Il time, and
the business of filling them at night
and gathering the ice in the morning
employs about three hundred men,
women and children. II is necessary
that the cane stalks be kept perfectly
dry; it by accident any part becomes
wetted, no ice will torn in the pans
