Underwear should never be washed

coored silk underwear A good soak

by rapid washing in good white soap

New Kitchen Utensils.

The metal bread board is one of the
new scientific devices which should be
found In every model kitchen. 1t is light,
does not absorb grease and dough does
not stick to 1t. 1t is less expensive than
the marble bread board, and, on tho
whole, answers all the requirements OF
sanitary brendmaking. The newest
cooking utensils are made of aluminium
They are not vet common, owing tu

that they need less fuel than is con.
sumed by other utensils, and that they

ESCAPED TO DROWN.
Fender and Donohue Tried for
Freedom on Blackwel's Island.
The Latter Persisted in the East
River and Pender Was Captured.
Wholesale Delivery Planned, but the
Others Weakened.

John DonOhue ana David Perder. be-
longing to gang OF eighteen Work
house prisoners on Blnckwell's Island.
shortly after breakfast at o'clock this
morning attempted to escape.
They jumped into the river and made
for the Astoria shore. The tide carried
the men down the river until they
reached n point directly opposite the
workhouse, when they were seen by
some persons on the Astoria side of the
river
Several of these put out In boat and
pulled Fender aboard. They then made
for Donohue. but before they reached
him he threw mp his hands and sank
beneath the water.
After waiting vainly long time for
Donohuc to reappear, the men rowed
to the island and turned Fender over
to the authorities.
Donohue was undoubtedly drowned
as it would have been impossible for
him to swim to the shore under water
from the point where he disappeared
He was twenty-five years old, married
and o check-clerk at y Washington

Pender, who Is thlrtyfour years old
and unmarried. and who was also com

after his capture, that there had beef
n wholesale plan OF escape by the gang
At the last moment. however. the other
men weakened, and only he and Don
ohup made the dash for liberty.
The gang had been taken to work on
the Metropolitan Hospital, which is only

authorities to u MIR. Smith, who has
charge Of the hospitals construction.
Mr.. Smith had given Il receipt fol
them. and when the attempt to escape
was made the men were under his chargt

for this reason. not to be responsible.

Earrings Here to Attend the Atch.

Rumors Of Rebate Overcharse OF
Over $1,000 900.

the Hon. Cecil Barring. arrived here
from London yesterday ON the steam

This visit OF the Earrings Is an I'M
expected move In the Atchison muddle,
and Is taken BY those opposed to the
Reinhart party, as indicative that some
thing radically wrong has been dis
covered by Expert Little In his exami-
nation of the Atchison books.
About three weeks ago a statement.
purporting TO emanate from Mr.. Little.
was made public. saying that an over
charge In the rebate amount had been
discovered amounting TO over T,0O,OC0.
This statement was no sooner out than
1t was denied, and claims made by the
Reinhart faction that Mr.. Little did not
understand how certain Items had been
charged.
Mr. Keinhart himself stated that so
| far as he had seen Mr.. Little's report
u was practically correct, but that he

one accountant might differ with an
other as to how certain matters should
be put on the books.
But In spite OF all this, 1t Is a fact
that the statement OF MIR. Little's exam
nation. which was TO have been made
public fortnight ago. has been, with
held. and the accounts have all been
gone over again.
The situation was deemed serious
enough to warrant the Earrings who rep

In selecting poultry, the best way to
determine whether it is young is to
try the skin under the leg or wing; II
It is easily broken, 1t Is young: or, turn
the wing backwards II the joint Yields

for any purpose. After chicken or
fowl Is killed, plunge It into a pot Of
scalding hot water; then pluck of the
feathers, taking care not TO tear the
skin; when 1t is picked clean. roll UP a
sheet of white wrapping paper, set fire
to it, SINCE off all the hairs. Poultry
should be carefully picked. and hies-

/. Under II Inc prison authorities and the

achii probably employ, thus forcing the
convicts into one line of occupation for
which they are probably wholly untitled.
The negro slaves on Southern plantation
were never worked rs numerically nor
treated as cruelty by their orerseers as
the convicts are by the contractors, The

contractor gets advantages that enable

ruined by prison contract competition.
