scIne Hints For the Kitchen.

Tins In Tie Kitchen feel the magic OF
mineral oil, and where long securing was
necessary to keep them bright and shining
in the past today the up to date cook dips
her flannel cloth in kerosene, then into pow
lcrcd lime or common whiting and with
these scourS her tins into likeness OF the
kerosene cleaned mirrors and all with only
half the labor OF course they want a
thorough rinsing in hot suds aftcrward to
free them of all odor, but the real toll Of
securing is what she breads and not the
quick and easy rinsiug.
If she has an oilcloth on her floor, she
adds a gill of kerosene to her securing wa
ter, dips mop in the pail, passes it quick
ly over the painted surface, dries it with a
flannel cloth, and with this slight effort
leaves it bright and polished almost as
new, and an oilcloth treated in this man
ner will outlast one scrubbed in the old
way twice over Many a housekeeper's
heart has gone nigh to breaking in despair
over painted floors and balconies which
showed every foot mark and were only
made dingy and dismal by all efforts to
wash them out A flannel cloth wrung
out in cold water and well sprinkled with
kerosene makes a painted floor almost as
easy to keep clean as one of the costly hard
woods, and the odor of the cleansing will
pass completely away in half an hour On
balconies, indeed, or where the windows of
the room are left open during the process
the smell evaporates so quickly as not TO
be noticed at all.

Brown gossamer wells are said to protect
tho complexion better than any Other

Corea's Murdered Queen.

VANCOUVER, B. O., Nov. 2s.-Chi-
nese papers by the steamer Empress
of China are bitter in their attacks
on the japanese authorities in Corea,
whom they blame for the murder OF
the Queen. They assert that Japan
is a nation pretending to be civilized,
but is the most barborous on earth.
The Queen was hung up by the hair
and, after being otherwise abused, was
tied hand and foot, soaked in oil and
burned in the rear of the palace, her
remains being reduced to ashes SO that
all trace might be lost. Thirty at
tendants of the Queen, 1t is alleged
were butchered, their corpses being
left about the palace. When the pal
ace was attacked of some 1900 guards
on duty, one in six remained at their
post and they were quickly dispatch
ed. According to the Chinese reports
there were fifteen women of title in
court-the Queen, her mother, and
thirteen ladies in waiting. They
were nearly all soaked in oil and
burned, while the mems throats were
cut, 9,

Triple Tragedy.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Herman
Hattenhaft, physical instructor,
killed his two children and himself in
Brooklyn yesterday. He lived in
Greene avenue, with his wife and two
children, the latter very young. Hat
tenhaft went out in the afternoon,
taking the children with him. When
he had not returned at midnight, his
wife started out to look for the three.
The doors of the gymnasium where
Hattenhaft was employed were found
locked and were battered in by the
police. They found father and chill
dren lying dead. The two children
had been shot and killed by. their fa-
ther, who then shot himself. The
bodies were cold, and it is supposed
the triple tragedy occurred during the
afternoon Hattenhaft had been de-
spondent for some time, probably be-
cause of domestic troubles. Twelve
years ago he was pugilist, and was
well known in Brooklyn as an athe.
lete. He was at one time the instruct
or in the Brooklyn Athletic Club. The
bodies of the two children were found
in closet used for yapor baths, where
the little ones had been playing while
living, probably having been first
made insensibIe with chloroform.
Into the box tube connecting with
the gas pipe was inserted. The chill
dren had died of asphyxation. The
wife and mother is so prostrated with
grief that it is feared she cannot re-
cover. In intervals between faintng
spells Mrs. Hattenhaft said that there
had been no domestic difficulty be-.
tween herself and her husband, and
she thought he must have become
temporarily deranged over business
troubles, of which she had heard him
speak of on several occasions. So far
as she knew, however. he had never
threatened to take his life or do bod
lily harm to any member of the family.
Hattenhaft, although an ex-pugilist,
bore good name.

Murdered on o Boat.

PARIS, Texas, Nov. pa ghastly
find was made on shanty boat at the
mouth of Wild Horse Creek on the
Indian Territory side of the Red river
by people from Arthur City, Sunday
night. Aboard the boat were found
the dead bodies of three men and a
boy, faithful dog. keeping guard
over the bodies. Yesterday Marshal
Williams sent two of his best men to
the scene. They found that the three
men had been shot in the head. Two
were shot with pistols and the third
with a shot gun. The. boy had been
killed with gun barrel or a club.
The murderers were so close to their
victims when the shots were fired
that their clothing was burned. The
men had been killed several days be-
fore and the bodies were in an ad-
vanced state of decomposition: The
mems clothing, with pockets turned
inside out was scattered about the
boat, showing that they had been
murdered and then robbed. AS far as
can be learned the victims were 4. Y.
Canody, the owner of the outfit,
Henry Thomas Rice, a music teacher,
and young man named Maddox,
who said few days ago that he was
from Atlanta, Ga., and that his father
was in the grocery business there.
The men left Arthur Last Wednesday
and the murder probably took place
Thursday night. The boat was in an
out of the way spot, there being no
house nearer than two miles. There
is no clew to the perpetrators OF the
crime.
