States Attorney c. !. Searle en-
tered 2 noile pro-e to the iudict-
ment against Engineer II q. Pad.
dock this morning II doing 50, Mr..
Searle stated to the court that he
had fairly Investigated The CHARGE
against FIR. Paddock, both in the
light OF evidence submitted TO the
grand Jury. and in outside evidence.
aud from his Information. considered
absolutely reliable by him, was Of
the unqualified opinion that Mr. Pad
dock was only employed By the citv
OF Rock Island TO plan the work and
furnish estimates OF the cost; that
here his duty ended and did no. re-
quire him to oversee and superin.
tend the work, and hence he was in
no way responsible if the work was
not zone as per contract and speciG-
cations. Therefore. even if Mr.. Pad.
dock knew OF the work no, beirr
done as il should have been, which
seems entirely impro bable from the
evidence, there would be 60 duty on
his part in that direction, and
consequently no violation o. dutv.
IL other words, the duty OF ms pec,ion
devolyed on the inspector emplcyed
oy the city. and not on Mr.. Paddock
as engineer Of tie work. Mr.. Searle
stated further that he thought the
grand jury had been misled in TIE
matter by both misip Information and
misrepresentation as to Mr.. Paddock,s
duties, likely believing from their
Information that il was q part of slr.
Pad docks duty 10 inspect the work
and see that it was dore according
20 contract. which was an erroneous
view in the light OF what he now
knew fro n s close study o: the spe-
the terms of MIR. Pad
decks employ ment, and information
from the proper city oilicisls.

Kitchen Contrivanoes.

It is in the kitchen that small con-
trivances count. A writer in Good
Housekeeping, In describing the ar
rangements Of bright little neighhor.
says; II noticed here an old tin pan,
not very large one, placed over the
drain in the sink. The bottom Of the
pan had been removed and wire net
ting substituted. When tho dish water
II poured into this. any thing that might
clog up the drain is caught by this net
ting, and it is the work Of a moment
only to empty the pan. So Of course that
part of the plumbing is never out Of or
der. A little slate hangs Oh the wall, on
which the names of the various supplies
are noted as soon as they are exhausted,
and when she serves a course dinner or
luncheon each dish and the order in
which it is to be placed on the table are
written down, SO that no mistakes may
occur. She has a small tub in which
sticky pans and dishes are put to soak
as soon as emptied, and little, stiff
scrubbing brush for cleaning potatoes.
And the use she makes Of newspapers
Chickens are dressed, meat is trimmed,
fruit cans filed, crackers rolled-nearly
every thing is done over q newspaper,
which Is then rolled up and burned.

A Wife Avenged.

At Fort Smith Mrs. Fannie Bourland
shot and instantly killed Maude Allen.
Mrs. Bourland is highly respected
lady, and it is said the killing grew out
of an infatuation between Mr.. Bourland
and the Allen woman. Mrs. Bourland
had repeatedly warned her that if she
did not leave Fort Smith she would
kill her, and on two previous occasions
had attempted to take her life. The
shooting occurred in house occupied
by Maude Allen, Mrs Bourland having
secreted herself in closet during
Maude's absence and awaited her re-
turn. Public sympathy is with Mrs.
Bourland, and it is claimed she will not
be indicted.

In the case of James Redd VS.. The
State, Judge Riddicz, of the supreme
court, rendered decision granting him
new trial. Redd was convicted in
Drew county of the murder of w. f.
Skipper, a prominent lumberman. In
view of the fact that the company
in which Skipper carried life insurance
is resisting payment on the ground
that he committed suicide, the second
trial of Redd will be watched with in
terest. Redd is said to have confessed
to the killing, but in his opinion Judge
Riddick held that in order to convict
a confession would have to be supported
by other evidence that the accused did
commit the crime, and that trial Judge
should express no opinion as to the
weight of such evidence.
