Now that Chicago is within two hours Of

The Assassin Eats and Sleeps Well In His
Prison.
LYONS, June 2s.-The police have dis
covered that Santo, the murderer of M.
Carnot, was in Milan between 1890 and
1898 and that he acted rs an intermediary
for anarchist correspondence.
Santo occupies cell on tho ground
door of the St. Paul prison and is watched
day and night to prevent him from at
tempting suicide. He Is n dull. uneducated
fellow. He cannot speak French with
duency.
The assassin sleeps soundly all night and
y portion of the day. He has % good APP
petite and does not smoke He appears
unconscious Of what fate has in store for
him. It is reported that no once said:

Santos reference to his condemnation
in Italy was in connection with his being
sentenced to five years Imprisonment for
distributing anarchist literature among
italian soldiers.
He escaped from prison after serving a
small portion of his sentence and was
afraid to return to Italy, for had the po

THE HOUSE FLY.
Begin the Campaign Against This Pest Ear
ly and Proclaim War on Every Straggler.

Begin the Campaign Against This Pest Ear
ly and Proclaim War on Every straggler.
1t seems highly important that every
housekeeper should realize the necessity
of keeping flies out of her home. To
say nothing of the work they make,
soiling windows, paint and pictures,
our very choicest of things; to say moth
ing of their annoyance in buzzing and
lighting on our persons, they are posi-
lively dangerous to have around, &C
cording to Dr. Edison of the New York
city board of health, who affirms that
the common house fly is an active agent
in spreading disease. In order that ev-
cry housekeeper may be able to cope
with this summer pest is here repro
duced from Good Housekeeping some
advice on the subject:
Be up and doing. Be alert Begin
the campaign early in the season. Pro-
claim war ON every straggler that ap-
pears. Don't tempt them to come.
Starve them out. See to it that the
table is cleared off the moment the fam
lily are done eating. If the meal has to
wait for late conner, cover the table
with square of cheesecloth. Leave no
crumbs ON the floor. Put cooking dishes
into soak as soon as through with. 1t
keeps the flies out and helps the dishes
Don't let the children scatter crumbs
when they eat lunch. A few crumbs
make q square meal for many flies. Put
the garbage pail as far away from the
back door as possible. Put as little
into it as possible Burn or bury all
you can. Set an old colander in the
sink, put in it all the accommodating
parings of vegetables, orange and lem
ON peels, eggshells, and let them drain
and partly dry. Open the hampers of
the range and burn part at a time. If
a bit of sugar or molasses is spilled,
wipe it up quickly. Don't let the flies
know of it, If one knows, he will fly
and tell all the rest. Put i'll the screens
early and don't forget the back door.
And, finally, if flies chance to get in
now and then, make business of kill
ing them. Close doors, blinds and win
dows, all but one, leave the blind open,
curtain up, window closed. See how
quickly the flies seek the light. Take
towel doubled i'll the hand and go after
them. Leave not one to tell the tale.
If there are many in the room, another
way is to leave the window open. Cut
a newspaper into strips, leaving bit to
double and tack on stick. With one
of these in each hand gently persuade
the flies out of the window. Flies do
not like newspapers. They make too
much noise.

FoR over 100 years George Washington
has been held up to the young Americans
of the lani as a model of veracity, remarks
the Philadelphia Record. His fame as a
truth teller has rested securely upon the
immortal tale of the cherry tree and the
hatchet Now, however, there is reason to
fear that this reputation of the father of
his country will suffer, if not entirely
vanish. His iuveterate biographer, Will
liam Spohn Baker, has unearthed a story
of fishing trip on the lower Delaware in
one of Washiugton's diaries, and will soon
give it to the world. If the fish story
holds water then the cherry tree sinks into
insignificauce. and the great Georges
veracity will assume more Ajestic pro-
portions than ever before. Mr. Baker
promises to complete his long and fruitful
labors in Westinghouse with biography
IF his hero's career from the date of his
commission as commander-in-c chief of the
Continental army through all the i'm
portant revolutionary campaigns and the
presidential administrations. This biogra-
ply will be final authoritative estimate
of the Cincinnatus of the new world.
