He wa. Finally spanked.

Only four persons saw II. but IL was
a sight those four VIII not forget while
life lasts. Not more than a fortnight
ago a woman who lives in Georgetown
came over to spend the day with a
friend in an enormously tall house,
She brought her little three-year-old
son with her. 1t was a not day, and
the two women with the boy went up
TO the roof garden. Something dis
tracted the mothers attention for q
moment, and In that moment the baby
had clamlered to a chair. thence TO a
rustic table, and as the mother turned
was just walking along the parapet's
edge. A divine providence kept both
women from startling him by a
scream. He ran along the edge of the
%sickening height laughing and waving
his hands. Nobody knows how long
1t was. 1t seemed a lifetime. The
mother dared not approach, for at
every movement on her part the ven
turesome little midget ran away and
called her to catch him. He would
not be coaxed to come down, but final
ly he yielded to a bride and climbed
down. And did the mother faint?
Well, no, she didn't. Her hair didn't
turn white, either. She simply took
the little boy into her arms without a
word. She held him close to her for
a long time, and then-weIl. she turn
ed him over her knee and spanked
him.-Washington Post.

Electric Soldering and Curling
Irons.

Electric soldering irons are rapidly
taking the place of iron heated in the
ordinary way. The iron can be
brought TO the required temperature
in an instant by inserting the termi-
nal on the flexible cord carrying the
current in the handle of the iron, and
all the trouble of making and main
tanning a fire is saved. The iron is
provided with interchangeable copper
tips, so that when one becomes worn
another can be substituted at slight
cost. The Ease and rapidity with
which electric heating can be effected
are bringing this class of apparatus
forward not only in the Industries,
but in the domain of domestic econ
omy. One Of it's most popular forms
is the electric curling iron heater.
The heater is suspended from an or
binary electric light socket, thus
avoiding damage to furniture which
might possibly be caused by an ap-
paratus mounted on a stand and set
on a table or stand. This appliance is
now very much used by ladies In
travelling. The connection is made in
a moment, and there is no necessity
for stringing a long, flexible cord to
the table. In order to obtain the high
est economy the heating resistnce is
inserted in the curling tongs; this in
sures the application of the heat at
exactly the right place, and when the
tongs are ready for use. which takes
about half a minute, the current is
gradually reduced by means Of a
compensating resistance. The regu-
lation of the heat is thus entirely
within the control Of the person using
the iron. The electric curling iron is
the only appliance yet devised that
will effect its purpose without run
ming the risk Of burning the hair.

Murderer Symes, Wanted ut Sprng ne

wash, Is captured.
Missoula, Mont, Aug. Z. - George
Symes, a murderer for whom there is
a $1,000 reward, var captured yester-
day by Sam MacLay, a rancher on
the Lolo river, twelve miles from Mis-
soula.
Symes, who is a notorious cattle
thief, killed Constable Conlee of
Sprague, Wash, about q month ago.
Conlee had arrested and h~andcuffed
the prisoner and was taking him to
jail on horseback, when Symes drew
a pistol which was probably con-
cealed in his boot, and shot the Of
ficer dead. The rufiian made his way
to Montana through the Idaho Clear
water country, where he was seen
and recognized. Last week he Sc
cured work on MacLay's ranch as q
harvest hand. MacLay went to Lolo
Saturday and was shown & picture
or Symes and recognized him. He
went back to his house, and yester-
day surprised his man In bed and at
tempted to arrest him. Symes had
two pistols in bed with him and fired
through the bed clothes at MacLay,
but missed him, and MacLay struck
him over the head with a club, knock
ing him senseless. He then bound
his prisoner hand and foot. bundled
him into a wagon, brought him to
Missuola and placed him in jail.
Symes admits his identity.

Miss Rouse, the Minnesota Mission
AIRY, Probably Escaped.
Boston, Aug. 13.-The Standard will
tomorrow print an exhaustive inter
view with Miss Clara NJ. Cushman of
Deadham, concerning the missionary
situation In China. Miss Cushman was
for many years a missionary in Pekin,
having been SEN by the same society
as that under whose auspices Miss
Hartford has been working at Ku
Cheng. In the interview Miss Cush-
man asserts a belief that these latest
massacres are one of the results of
the recent val between China and
Japan. Ku Cheng is many hundred
miles from the central government at
Pekin, and ii is probab bic that the peO-
pie had only rumors of the trouble,
and SO got all sorts of stories. some OF
which may have started the trouble.
THE uniformed Chinese" Miss Cush-
man continued, believe that the for
eign missionaries cat out the eyes and
hearts of the natives to use for medi-
cine. They are quick TO accept any
story that they hear, so that the for
eigners there can never tell when a
mob will come upon them. Ku Cheng
Is quite a distance from Foo Chow, up
the Min river. 1t it a walled city of
about 10000 inhabitants. and has the
reputation of being a very neat and
clean city. long Bing is still further
inland. Miss Hartford has an assist
ant, Miss Wilma III. Rouse of Mime
sofa, who was probably not in the
massacre as her name was not men
