A,vsh Mcdonald Dead.

fever for about two weeks, had passed
TO the great unknown about two hours
before. His death was uot unsxpsct.
ed. and even from the time he was TAX.
en- down bis recovery was despaired Of
Is his constitution was never strong.
He would have been twentysone years
Of age next March, and has lived at
Wind cave for the last four years.
He has spent most Of this time in ex-
'ploring and opening up that great
natural wonder. He was the chief
guide and knew the cave like book.
He oied in the full hope Of . Chris.
tian's reward. The funeral was held
Sunday and was we'll attended, and the
chief guide, Alvah Mcdonald, laid to
rest in the bosom of Mother Earth to
await the trumpet call on the resuf.
rection morn. Appropriate services
were conducted by the Rev. N. A.
Swickard, pastor of the Hot Springs
M. E. church.
The berraved family and sympathiz.
ing friends mourn a great loss, for
no one can at once take his place as
guide. No other is so familiar with
the miles OF intricate passages and
chambers. But those who have been
guided by him to its wonders will re-.
juice to know that he passed through
the portal of the grave following Je.

A man who has been working ten

fruits and vegetables now offers 10
housewives the fruit of his labor. 1t

added TO water, preserves the fruits 10y

ferment. By its use it is claimed that
certain fruits, notably peaches, pre-
serve their natural flavor so perfectly
that they may he served IA fresh
fruits. This mysterious powder has
the fantastic power to turn black Der
ries white, while it deepens the hues
of some of the lght-colored fruits.
When ready to use a jar of the fruit in
the winter, if preserves are wished, a
syrup is prepared and turned over the
fruit. One hundred and twenty-eight
quarts of fruit may be prepared from a
pound of the powder. - New York
