A Young Woman Rescued from the Cru
city Her Parents.

city 0 Her Parents.
Ansonia. Conn, special: The local hu-
name agents attention was recently called
to the case Of woman % years old living
in the center OF Torrington. the little town
up In the Naugutuek Valley, who has never
during her life been out OF doors. never
been to church or Sunday School. and has
AS far as pos .ible been kept in ignorance OF
the world about her. The Kings Daugh-
ters and the W. II. q. have interested them
selves in the case, and the girl has been
provided with suitable clothing. Recently
she was taken TO Sunday School and to u
picnic. The scenes were strange and be-
wildering to her, and her pleasure was so
great that she seemed about to go wild for
joy. The reason first given by those who
had held the girl In confinement ali these
years was that she was too ill-looking to be
seen in public, and that she had no clothes
to wear. AS the girl is quite pretty when
she is dressed in suitable clothing. the rea-
son was plainly manufactured one. After
ward 1t was learned that the real reaso
was that an elder sister OF the girl had
been led astray and her parents determined
to save the younger one from any such fate
by keeping her from the temptations of the
world. The young woman Is not ignorant,
having been fairly we'll taught by her par

An Electric Frying Pan.

It is now possible to cook with cleo
tricity. The bottom of an ordinary fry
ing pan is coated with an insulating en-.
s:nel, in which is embodied zig g-zag
~ire conveying the current. To prevent
radiation from the insulating enamel the
plate on its under surface is protected
with asbestos. The wire is made of an
slloy which can stand great heat, and be-
coming very hot it makes the iron pan
hot about 480 degrees to 500 degrees.
The pan does not become incandescent.
Meats, ETC., can be cooked quickly, and
soffee made in jiffy, while the expense
Il almost nothing, as the electric current
can be switched from an ordinary six
teen-power incandescent lamp. There
arc no unpleasant fumes and no danger
from fire. With an electric frying pan
and an electric teakettle bachelor could
prepare his own meals and live well for
comparatively nothing. -[St.L Louis Globe.

A Legal Decision which Horrlfies Har-

Wichita. Kan, special: II the conclusion
arrived at by Judge Reed OF the District
Court, decided here, is sound law. de-
cided sensation has been sprung on many
OF Harvey County. who have been married
within the last two years. A year ago An
drew Kimberly. n farm hand, ran on with
Cora Bunton. the twelve-year-old daugh-
ter OF his employer. and by misrepresenta-
tiOn 81 cured license aud married the
child. John Bunton. the father, brought
suit to annul the wedding, and the evidence
developed that In the absence Of the Probate
Judge OF Harvey County, the County Clerk
had issued the license, An act for wh'cls
there Is ne provision in the statute. The
Judge therefore held that there had been
no marriage. and there was therefore moth
ing to annul. Further inquiry shows that
1t has been the practice Of the Clerk OF the
neigbboring county to issue these licenses
whenever the Probate Judge has been out
of town, and large number OF people have
been, 1t IS supposed, welded under them.
