A FAMOUS DISH,
With a New and savory Flavor.

Chop beef, mutton or pork into a
hash. Take a quantity of Grape-Nuts
equal to half the amount of meat.
Mix into the Grape-Nuts a raw egg and
what milk it will take UP.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Now thoroughly mix meat and all
into hash. form into patties like sau-
sage and place in a hot skillet with
only enough butter on bottom 20 pre-
vent sticking. Place cover over the
skillet and cook until done.
Put a little piece of butter on top of
each patty if they tend to become dry,
but do not use enough to make greasy.
Serve hot and you will discover that
the meat has acquired most savory
flavor from the Grape-Nuts and at the
same time it has been rendered easily
digestible and the elements in the
Grape-Nuts furnish most valuable
for athletes, as we'll as
invalids. Made by the Postum COM
pany, Battle Creek, Mich.
Grocers sell Grape-Nuts.

her lovers behald. At the close of his
second trial, when he was found guilty

Idaho.

Boise Statesman: 1t is possible that
light is at last to be shed upon the
long-standing mystery surrounding
the disappearance three years ago,
from their farm, on Sinker creek, in
Owyhee county, of Mr.. and Mrs. Dick
Thomas. 1t is expected important dis
closures will be made by a sheep herd
er named Glover, who left yesterday af-
ternoon for Silver City, after having
promised to tell all he knows about
the matter.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas disappeared as complete
ly as though the earth had opened un-
der their feet and buried them from
sight. Persons who went to TIE Thorn
as farm house found nothing disturbed.
The table was set and the cooking
utensils were still on the stove. Search
was made for the bodies, but without
avail. Time went on, and no trace of
the missing people was found. 1t was
known that a short time before his dis
appearance Thomas had sold most if
not all of his stock, realizing quite a
sum therefrom, and this fact gave rise
to a multitume of rumorS of murder
The officers worked diligently, but were
unable to obtain the slightest clue. If
murder had been committed, the per-
petratorS covered we'll their tracks.
Last fall, Glover, the sheep herder,
found a skull between Sinker creek
and Orea.na- He turned it over to an
other herder named Davis, who took
it to Silver City and gave it to Sheriff
Crocheron. That officer found Glover
and was taken by him to the spot
where Glover claimed he found the
grewsome relic. Near the place was an
open grave, but Crocheron remember
ed it as the grave Of an Indian boy he
had opened II years before. Little Gre
dence was placed in the story told by
Glover that he found the skull at that
point, it being supposed, being alarmed
at the rigor of the investigation, that
he led the officer on q. false trail in or
der to avoid becoming involved.
The skull has been examined by doc
tors, who pronounce it the skull of a
white woman who had been dead two
or three years, and the belief exists
that it is the skull of Mrs. Thomas.
Clover came to Boise a few days ago.
He agreed to tell all he knows about
the matter, and for that purpose he
went to Silver City yesterday with an
Owyhee county officer. 1t seems evil
dent Glover had nothing to do with the
crime. He apparently became possess
ed of important information relative to
the disappearance Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Thomas, but, outside Of the statements
made in connection with the finding of
the skull, remained silent, either fear
ing some harm would come to him from
the real criminals or else desiring to
avoid notoriety. But now he states he
will unseal his lips and give the Off
GERS all the information he has on the
subject. Glover may be subjected to
some criticism for having so long re-
manned silent, but that fact will be for
gotten in praise of his action in telling
what he knows, even at this late day.

a high degree the elements of afro
ciousness and cunning. and the hope
will be universally INDUCED that the
statements Glove will make will result
in the apprehension and conviction of
the guilty parties.

A LADY SHOEBLACK
MRS. EDNA r. MAXWELL SHINES
SHOES FOR CHARITY.
Has Made a Great Success of It In
Other Cities and Will Begin oper-
atoms Here Today-Her System
and What Is Done With the Money

For the next few weeks Salt Lakers
will have the privilege of being able
to have their shoes shined by a lady.
It's novel idea, originated and carried
out in the interest of charity by Mrs.
Edna R. Maxwell. She halls from
Kansas City, is young, pretty and in
telligent, dresses plainly, but we'll;
travels with a chaperone, and is pro-
fessional bootblack. She began this
novel way OF making money in Kansas
City and has visited many of the lead
ing cities of the country, following the
business with great success. Her OBJ
ject is the establishment of free wards
in Protestant hospitals, where working
girls may find refugees when sick and
too poor to pay for the medical atten-
ton and nursing they need While the
free wards are being established by
Mrs. Maxwell in Protestant hospitals,
they are for sick and needy girls or
any religion. She says there is not a
Catholic hospital in America without
free ward for the poor, while there
are not a score of Protestant hospitals
thus provided, and in her work she is
but following the example of the noble
women of the Catholic sisterhoods.
HOW SHE OPERATES.
When Mrs. Maxwell comes to a new
town she engages the services of a
number of expert shoeblacks, secures
stands at the leading hotels and other
public places. Tickets are provided
and sold to the public at reasonable
rates. Her employees are paid fair
wages and she makes a good profit
from the sale OF the tickets and the
shining she does with her own hands.
The shine, when done by the boys she
employs, costs cents, that being the
price at which the tickets are sold, but
frequently when Mrs. Maxwell does the
work herself, she receives IS. $40 or $50
for a shine She saws at the Omaha
exposition she shined only two shoes
and got IS each for the job. She agreed
to shine a lot of others, but the men
paid and refused to take their shines,
when they found that the operation
had to be witnessed by one of the
boards of ladies and a number of news
paper men.
CONVENTIONS ARE FRUITFUL.
Conventions are favorite places for
profitable operations. Mrs. Maxwell
has attended in the past few months u
conventions and netted for the char
liable purpose named, after paying all
her expenses, something over $4,000.
She comes highly recommended, and
has adopted many precautions to make
people understand that she is not
fraud. She turns over all the money
she receives to the president or other
official of some local charitable insti-
tuition, the mayor or other prominent
citizen, and makes such trustee give
her checks for the amount of her ex-
penses, and the surplus goes to the
hospital
This original ard enterprising lady
arrived in fhe city yesterday, and for
the next few days will make the Min
ing congress her headquarters, after
which she will establish stands at the
Knutsford, Cullen, Walker and Ken
yon hotels, and expects 10 do a thriv-
ing business in Salt Lake.

Action.

St. Paul. July General Manager
Hendricks of the Northern Pacific has is
sued a notice that the wages of the train
employees over the entire system have
been restored TO the figure before the re-

This question has been under considera-
ton by the president and other officials

the excellent financial showing it was de-
cided TO restore wages. The raise dates
from July l. Engineers and conductors
will get an increase of about Is per cent.
Ffremen also secure a like raise, but they
and other employees did not suffer so
much as the engineers and conductors
in the cut of four years ago.

Rio Grande Western. accompanied by his
son, George Dodge and family, left the
city last evening, going north. They have
been in the city for day or two, at the
lake, where they have been having a quiet
time, resting and enjoying the baths and
cool sea breezeS.
General Dodge said there was nothing
new in the railroad situation and that
this visit to the city was one for rest
and enjoyment only. He did not want to
think about railroads while he was away
being bent only on escaping the warm
weather
