PULLED OUT OF BED,
And Hustled Off to Jail on Charge of
Burglary.

In his room in a lodging house on Ma
pie avenue near Sixth street M. D. Taney
alias M. d. Mcintosh was arrested yes
terday morning by Detectives Steele and
Bradish and hustled off to Jail on a
charge of burglary. He is accused Of
entering the room of a Mr.. Stilwell,
driver of laundry wagon, in the Grand
View hotel one night about four days
ago and stealing a suit of clothes, some
under clothing, handkerchiefs, ETC.
The officers were notified of the theft
at the time, and on Thursday Steele
found where some of the plumber had
been sold in secondhand store on First
street. From the proprietor he secured
a good description of the man who had
disposed of the goods, and later located
his room. Waiting until o'clock in the
morning a descent was made and Taney
found asleep. He was confronted by the
secondhand man, who positively identi-
fed him, also by another dealer to whom
he had tried to sell some of the stuff.
In his room were found several hand
kerchiefs taken from Stilwelps room
and as further evidence of his guilt a
woman in the hotel remembers seeing
him hanging about on the evening the
burglary took place. In his trunk were
found letters addressed to both McIn-
tosh and Taney, but which is his real
name has not as yet been ascertained.
He will be arraigned in court this after

SUGAR FOR w1NTER1NG BEES

Bees that are short of stores should be
fed during the winter, or the whole col
ony will perish before stores can be gath
cred next season. Roots A b of Bee
Culture gives the following very ex-
plicit instructions how to prepare the
winter food:
There is just one candy that is used
universally by beekeepers. Though used
particularly as a food in queen cages
and pound cages, it is also used for
feeding during the winter or early
spring. 1t is none other than what is pop
ularly termed the Good candy after l.
r. Good of Indiana. Who introduced it in
this country. 1t was, however, first in
vented by q German by the name of
Scholz many years before Mr.. Good in
troduced it. BY Europeans it is there
fore called the Scholz candy.
Make stiff dough out of first quail
ity of extracted honey and sugar. These
are the directions that were given at
first, but it would seem that, from the
difference in results, more specific di-
rections are necessary. Mr.. j. d. Fos-
heo (or rather his wife, who makes it
for him) has been very successful in
making candy. Their method is as fol-
lows: Take good thick honey and heat
mot boiD it until it becomes very thin
and then stir in pulverized sugar. Af-
ter stirring in all the sugar the honey
will absorb, take it out of the utensil
in which 1t Is mixed and thoroughly
knead 1t with the hands. The knead-
ing makes it more pliable and soft, so
1t will absorb, Or rather, take up more
sugar. For summer use it should be
worked, mixing in a little more sugar
until the dough is so stiff as not to work
readily, and it should then be allowed
to stand for day or two; and if then
so soft as to run, a little more sugar
should be kneaded in. A good deal will
depend upon the season of the year.
There should be more sugar in propor-
tion to the honey in warm or hot wealth
er than for cool or cold weather. 1t
should not be so hard in winter but
that the bees can easily eat it, nor should
1t be so soft in summer as to run and
daub the trees. For this reason the
honey, before mixing, should be heated
so as to reduce it to a thin LIQUID. For
shipping bees the main thing to look out
for is to see that the candy does not run
nor yet get hard. 1t is one of the nice
points in making this candy to make
1t just right. Don't delude yourself by
the idea that second quality Of honey
will do. Always use the incest you have.
We have had the best results with first
quality or clover extracted. Sage honey,
for some reason or other, has the prop
erty of rendering the candy in time as
hard as brick, and, of course should
not be used

The Harbor Commission Observes the
Geographical Conditions
Music Hall Is Engaged for the Public
Meetings Next Week-A Coast

The harbor commissioners spent yes
terday at San Pedro, making similar OBJ
servations to those made at Santa Mon

In the evening the commissioners held
a conference at the Westminster, at

the coast on the way. In the evening the
party will return to this city.

In other words, the chemist says that
the poorer soil-the one upon which I
cannot grow beans-is the richer in min
eral plant food, and that the rock con-
tains most abundant supply of potash
and about half as much phosphoric acid
as the good bean soil.
All this, after all, is not surprising.
when we come to think of 1t. EVERY
good farmer knows that a hard and
lumpy soil will not grow good crops. no

INSURANCE CONTEST.

The contest over the payment of 500.
600 insurance on the life of Guy G.
Phinney, by the Mutual Life Insurance
company, has been brought to close
by the United States circuit court of ap-
peals. which has handed down decis-
ion at San Francisco affirming the judg-
ment of $SS,000 with interest, secured by
Mrs. Nellie Phinney In the lower courts.
The case of the Mutual Life was badly
damaged by blunder of the clerk of the
court at Washington, who failed to make
an official record that a writ of error had
been filed, and the time allowed in which
another appeal might be filed had sub
sequently expired. The interest brings
the total payment to Mrs. Phinney to
over 500. O00-United States Review

Thousands Call on Mo-

Mckinley Cites a Lesson That Can
 not But Have the Proper Effect In November.

CANTON, Oct. 7.-Major Mckinley spoke in part as follows to the people of East Brady, Pa.
 eve can hardly realize that from 1873 to 1893 we reduced Hhe public debt from $2,233 ,331 ,3OS in 1866 to s70,000,- 900. We paid off during those twenty years $1, ,623, ,5S1, ,673 of the public debt, and we were under the protective tar if and sounrd money system. While we were paying off the debt we were building in this country the most splendid industrial enterprises, giving constant and steady employment to American labor at fair wages and to the farmers of the country just reward for their toll.
 "Four years ago the people changed the policy of t1he government and since that time we have created National debt, principal and interest, of about $3O0,O00,0 ,0OO, and labor has been lilly improved. If we will but follow the latter of experience in the direction which that lamp will lead us Novem- Der we will vote down the policy that brought us to these conditions, and vote to continue a monetary sys- tenn built on a solid basis, which will give us the best money in the world money which panics cannot disturb and business failures cannot depreciate. D Tremendous applause)
 No more enthusiastic callers have been here than those from Towanda, and Buffalo and Syracuse, N. Y., and Lenawee county, Michigan. Through dreuching showers and mud the call CTS marched to the Mckinley home, making the city resound with their en- thusiasm, while mounted troops and large bands of music and finely drilled companies, uniformed in mackintoshes invoked cheers from the thousands who stood sheltered under the awn- ings. The reception was held in the Tabernacle, the rain preventing a demonstration on tihe lawn.

HE HAD SIX WIVES.
Deceived Them All and Borrowed All
 the Money They Would Lend.

NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-Some con- sternation was caused in the Center street police court yesterday, when it developed tlhat William B. Thompson, charged with being a bigamist had probably six wives in all
 When Thompson appeared in court in the morning he was paroled in cus- tody of an officer SO that he might get bail, but somehow he made his escape, and when the afternoon session came there was no trace of Thompson.
 One of fthe wives who appeared in court told a long story of how he had made her presents of houses, factories and lots, worth a quarter of a million as he alleged, but she found after wards he did not own a part of the property.
 Thompson was getting ready to marry the seventh wife when he was arrested. A favorite trick of his was to borrow money from the women he deceived, while pretending to make them presents of blocks, mines and lots. Thompson is 51 years of age, Although born in Ireland, he is an ar dent mater of the Irish, and frequently said, according to one of his wives that if he had drop of Irish blood in him he would cut it out. He wears a large horseshoe mustaehe, and has a manner that women describe as fas- cinating.

MINNESOTA.

A special dispatch to the New York Mail and Express says:
 If the presidential election were fixed for today, there is every reason to believe that Minnesota would give Mckinley close ito 30,000 majority. What it will do a month hence may be a different story, though l doubt it. Most of the Republican leaders here are confident that the Bryan forces have been so completely routed that they cannot get together again before November, but there are others whose opinions are of value and who detect an under current of Bryanism that may develop into dangerous propor- tions when Bryan and others stump the state on the evening of the cleo tion, as they propose ito do it.

TURKEY OBDURATE.
Will Not Allow American Warships to
 Pass the Dardanelles.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. Tt was semi officially announced here today that the Turkish government after weighing the matter and consulting certain advisaries had come to a de cision not to admit the United States warship Bancroft through the Darda- nelles and therefore she will not be able to act as a guardship to the United States legation in these waters. The Porte, it is said, has also decided not to admit the guardships of Greece and Holland. 1t is believed MT. Terrell about a month ago sent an urgent re quest to Washington for a United States war vessel. It is further inti- mated that the United States govern ment will insist by force if necessary upon the presence of the Bancroft in the Bosphorus taking the ground that such step would not be an unfriendly act to Turkey in view of all the cir cumstances and that the protection of the lives and property of the American citizens made it necessary.
 | The Turkish government has sent a circular to the differen. embassies de- manding right to search foreign vessels passing Constantinople for menians. It is believed the powers will not accede to this request as up to the present the Armenians who have sought refuge on board British or French vessels have been protected by the guardships here until the vessels on which they sought refuge had sailed for their destination. Advices from the island of Crete state the entire population of the interior is still un- der arms and the leaders have an nounced that they will renew hostili- ties unless the Turkish garrisons ars withdrawn from Crete. This has caused renewed excitement and the Sit. | uation has once more assumed ( threatening aspect.

LOUISIANA.

Mark Hanna has fixed his eagle eye on the state of Louisiana, and he means to capture its electoral vote for Mc- Kinley. If he fails in that, he pro poses to secure several sound money congressman as a sort of consolation purse.
 The Louisiana question was up for consideration at the recent conference, held in New York, between Mir. Hanna and Representative Babcock, chairman of the Republican congressional com mittee.
 The situation i'm Louisiana was care fully reviewed, and the information in the possession of MT. Hanna is said to justify him in making determined fight in that state. It was represented that the sugar planters, and those in terested with them, are prepared to make any reasonable combination that will protect their interests, and they

 When Representative Babcock re- turned to Washington, he reported to his associates on the congressional committee that he had been relieved of a very disagreeable job. When ques- tioned further, he replied that Mir Hanna and the National Republican committee will, during the remainder of the campaign, take sole charge of the Republican forces in Louisiana, thus relieving the congressional con- mittee from all responsibility in that state as we'll as i'm Florida.
 Early in the canvass, Senator Quay went to the latter state, and upon re- turning north, requested the National committee to take charge of the con- test there, assuring his associates that there is more than a fighting chance tc

WESTERN NEW YORK SOLID.

George E. Matthews, proprietor of the Buffalo Express, called on MT. Hanna and brought the news that all western New York is solid for McKin- lay and sound money. As to Erie county, MT Matthews said that McKin- ley would have 15,000 majority there. He added:
 ''The only possible reward the Dem ocrats may reap for their labors as can see is one out of eight assembly men. There might be such a thing as the election of one Democratic con- gressman in gerrymamdered district, but l do not expect it. The sound money Democrats are making earnest efforts for the cause, and will show LID strong at the polls. The greater mum Der of them will vote directly for Mo Kinley.
 All advices received, after careful investigation, from Ohio, Indiana, Hi nois, Iowa and Michigan, the states SC consistently claimed for Bryan, indi- cate that if there were anything to base these claims upon three weeks ago, it doesnM exist now. Bryan neve1 had any chance in Ohio, and his man. agers know that the question in tha state is like that here in New Yorl state, merely the question of beating the record in Republican majorities I have "a letter now from a very con servative Democrat in central Illinois who says confidently that the stat will give Mr. Mckinley 100000 major ity.

THE CAR.
The Imperial Party View the Sights

PARIS, Oct. 7.-Under the guidance of President Faure, the czar and czar- ina set out early this morning to visit the principal points of interest in Paris. Wherever they went they were greeted with demonstrations of en- t1husiasm equal to those of yesterday First the imperial visitors were taken to he cathedral of Notre Dame, from which they were escorted to the Pan theon, where they spent a few mo- ments beside the tomb of the late President Carnot. Subsequently they were shown through the hotel Des Invalides, where there were assembled a large number of pensioners of all ranks from the. French army. At the tomb of Napoleon, the czar stood few moments, as if in contemplation. The c7aT shows plainly that he is suffer- ing from fatigue, being pale and ab- stracted. The czarina, however, bears | up we'll under the strain of travel and sight seeing and acknowledges the plandits of the throngs with gracious smiles.
