How TO Clean Carpets.

New York Tribune: With the
near approach of housekeeping sea-
son, the easiest and best way to clean
carpets is Il question worthy of consid-
Grafton.
The methods employed in the Brit
ish factories for cleaning velvet, mo-
nuette, Aubisson and other heavy car
pets is TO be commended for it's sim
plicity as well as the good results OBJ
tanned. Two large pals Of hot water
are provided, II clear and tepid, the
other hot and soapy, made SO by shaw
ing white soap into water. Plenty of
good, strong white cotton rags are u
requisite, and a scrubbing brush may
be added if care is taken no. 70 apply
it too vigorously.
\ square of the carpet is then ia
ken at Il time and the surface washed
quickly with a clean cloth and this
soapy water.
An Englishwoman recommends the
following: Take up as much of the
soiled water as possible, then wiring
out the cloth into a third pan of tepid
water, and with n cloth wrung from
the clean water wipe the soaped and
cleaned surface thoroughly, wiping
deity over, but not wiping in. Now
wipe with clean cloths until it is as
dry as possible.
Proceed in this way until the entire
surface is covered. Change the water
frequently, and when finished let the
dry, sunny air sweep over and raise
the tuft of the weaving until it is as
good as new. This washing is good
for the textile, and should be done
every six months if possible.

MUST LEAVE CANADA

CarranZa's Letter Gave the Game
Away and the spaniards Are
Likely to Go without
Invitations.

Washington, June 7.-Steps have
been taken by which it is expected that
Lieutenant Carranza, who has conduct
ed the Spanish spy system from Mon
treal, with his associate, Senior Du
Bose, former first secretary of the
spanish legation here, will be expelled
from Canada within the next few days
unless they adopt their own means To
leave before an international inquiry
is raised as to their presence in Can
ada. The Carranza letter, detailing his
spy system, was communicated TO the
British ambassador, Sir Julian Paunce-
fote, together with all other informa-
ton bearing on the operations of the
Spanish officials in Canada. The am
bassador was quick to act in the mat
ter and without waiting the slow pro-
cesses of the mail he cabled the entire
matter TO the foreign office. No doubt
is entertained as to the speedy action
Of the authorities in London, now that
a specific case has been made out
against the Spanish officials in Canada.
1t is expected that Lord Salisbury
will call the attention of the Spanish
government TO the undesirability of
having Seniors CaTranza and Du Bose
remain in Canada longer, as their oper-
ations are so obviously hostile to the
United States. This, however, may be-
come unnecessary if the Spanish Off
| Gals withdraw from Canada at once, as
there appears TO be no disposition 10
persecutc them, or TO give them an en-
forced expulsion Sc long as they are
willing to close their operations and
depart. The British statutes, ms well
as those Of Canada, have specific provi-
sions against the use of British or Ca
madam territory by foreigners tempo
rarily seeking asylum there, as the
base of hostile operations against
countries with which Great Britain
and her colonies are at peace.
About week ago an effort was made
by the Spanish officials TO enlist the
sympathy Of the British embassy here
with an alleged British subject impris,
oned at Tampa, who it is now believed
is the Spanish spy alluded TO in Lieu
| NIldl Val ana > l'NbNls III
dian lawyer arrived here last Sunday
and made a personal appeal to Sir Ju'
liam Pauncefote to intervene in behalf
of the man imprisoned at Tampa,
There were suspicious circumstances
connected with the case, and before
acting the ambassador asked for a spe'
cifc recital of all the facts. These
were not Forthcoming and the case
was not pushed. When the CarranzC
letter appeared stating that one of his
spies had been captured at Tampa il
became apparent for the first time
that the efforts toward intervention
were designed to secure the release Of
this spy.
Aside from the official action of the
British government, it is quite likely
that the Canadian officials will take
some action against Carranza and Dr
Bose, under the Canadian statutes.
