The power of ashes to absorb heat
is not appreciated, or so many house
keepers would not so uniformly allow
their servants to empty the ashes. A
stove that is kept free from ashes and
SCOT not only burns better, but gives
out more heat for the amount of fire.
A mass of ashes under a CRATE abb
serbs large amount of heat; for this
reason if not for the sake of neatness
the ashes should be removed system
atically every day. A bright stove
sends out more heat than a dull one.

ance, but matter of use to keep the
kitchen stove shining and polished as

A month or more ago, during a row
in joint at CLANCY, a small town
south OF Independence, near the In
dian territory line, George Meacham
was shot in the shoulder by deputy
sheriff. It seems that the deputy and
George, who were on good terms, were
together in the joint; some trouble
arose, when the deputy demanded that
George hand over his gun. George told
him he would not. and refused the
second time, when the deputy fired a
shot at Meacham. George stopped
down to look under the cloud of smoke
and see the deputy, in the meantime
pulling his gun to defend himself. At
this time the deputy fired the second
time, the shot taking effect in Mea-
CHAINS shoulder. The deputy then
skipped out, and George was cared for
by his friends; his brother Dennie went
down and brought him home. where
he has been for the last three weeks.
Thursday the sheriff came from INDIE
pendence and put George under arrest,
the charge being resisting an officer,
and he was taken back there Thursday
morning. These particulars are gath
cred from the sheriff and from George
himself as we rode with the two down
as far as Newton. 1t Is hoped thai
nothing of more serious nature will
come of the scrape. Dennle accom-
panied his brother to Independence.
