ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.I
FRANKLIN, August 7.-Great surprise and
sorrow were expressed to-day on the receipt of
telegram from New York announcing that
Mr.. George Pohl, of this city, had been placed
in custody. he having been found suffering
from dementia. Mr.. Pohl is the cashier of the
Eclipse Oil Works in this city, and was recently
granted two months leave of absence on full
pay on account of failing health, and was en-
route to Europe to visit his old home when
stricken.
His case rs almost similar to that of Horace
Phillips of the Pittsburg Ball Club, and he will
be placed IN some private asylum until cured,
as it is understood there are strong hopes of his
case taking favorable turn with rest and
quiet.

The stairway is rich; there is beautiful
mantel in it. The stairway at one end shows
up nicely from the front and projects into a
bay at the side. This plan is capable of
being contracted into much smaller house.
The rooms are large, and altogether it is on
quite an extensive scale. 1t has been built
several times several sizes smaller and ut u
much less cost. From the large hall one can
go into the parlor, sitting room and dining
room.
The pantry, china closet and kitchen are as
conveniently fitted as the experience of those
interested would suggest. The kitchens and
pantries of the plans which have appeared
from time to time have been fully described.
The idea in oil is the same. The require
ments are no different in an expensive house
than in one less expensive. Labor saving de-
vices are even more necessary in cheaper
house than in one which is more expensive,
though it usually happens that the owners of
more expensive buildings are better prepared
to equip themselves with complete arrange
ment than those who have to do with the
more modern structures.
The idea in all these kitchen plans is that it
and its annexes of china closet and kitchen
pantry form tho worlrooms of the house, and
as such should be treated from labor saving
standpoint. The saving of one step in the
performance Of a single operation will save
hundred when the performance of that opera
ton is multiplied by this number. In every

Protection Of Animals.

The protection of wild birds, fishes and
quadrupeds from determination has made
good progress in the British Islands of
late years: but in most other parts Of the
world the unscrupulous greed of men
who make the capture of wild creatures
a source of profit is rapidly reducing the
numbers of many species, and threatens,
if not stopped by the strong hand of the
law, to lead to their utter extinction.
The most hopeless case appears to be
that of certain marine animals, which
can only be protected by international
agreement, of which there is no sign at
present. The whaling and sealing in
dustry of this country and America
threatens ere long. if carried on as has
hitherto been the case, to extinguish the
race of whales and seals in the northern
seas. Among birds the great aux has
been hunted to death while in the south
ern Pacific islands certain birds, like the
dodo and the gigantic moa, have ceased
to exist within comparatively recent
times.
In the North American continent there
are races of wild animals which were
abundant twenty years ago, and are now
on the point Of extinction. Instances of
the kind are the bison, or American
buffalo, and the alligator Of the Missis-
sippi Crocodile leather has become so
fashionable of late that the capture of
alligators in the great river of the United
States has been pursued as a regular in
dustry, and with such energy that the
creature is almost extinct. The valuable
fur bearing animals of Siberia and the
Hudsons Bay territory have also been
hunted and trapped within the past gen.
Grafton with such success that the supply
isnow obtained with increasing difficulty
every year. The last instance comes
from Australia, where kangaroos have
been hunted for their skins so unmerci-
fully that the most valuable varieties are
palpably approaching extinction. The
kangaroo skin trade has become so
alarmed that it is urging on the Austria
lian legislators the necessity of close
time for these animals, if they are not
soon altogether to disappear.-London
Standard.

GROUND FLOOR.

kitchen there should be the sink with the table
on one side Of it and drain board and table
on the other. These should be adjacent to the
kitchen range. In the pantry shelves and
drawers, dough board and place for re-
frigerator with drain connection to the out
side and good ventilation are desirable.
A very nice arrangement to add to an or
dinary panty is cooler set into the wall
which projects to the outside. It is a lat
ticed box covered with stats and wire on the
inside. In it may be placed cooked food to
cool or food which it is desirable to Keep cool
during cold weather. The Stats protect the
articles from view from the outside, and the
wire screen protects it from flies during the
summer. On the inside is door which separ-
ates the cooler from the inside of the room.
The second floor arrangement of this
building suits the requirements Of the people
who occupy the house. An additional room
could be provided in place of store room,
and the attic be used for that purpose. The
closets in all rooms are of large size and the
entire arrangement liberal The back bed
rooms are separated from those in front.
Quite chapter might be written about
attics. In the minds of many housekeepers
an attic is "a place to put things" Often
times in houses which are measurably well
cared for in the lower floors the attic is in a
fearful state of disorder
