as to his present whereabouts. and July

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

If there is one thing on which the
housewife prides herself it is that of
having her laundering done nicely, so
that the wearing apparel may be the
admiration Of all. The washing is a
small matter, any one almost can do
that, but to have the linens present
that flexible and glossy appearance
after being ironed requires fine quail
ity of starch.

SHERIFF. HAS FULLER.
Waukesha Elopers Brought Back
to Spring City and Man
Lodged in Jail.

Waukesha, Wis, Sept. 3d. Special. /
BY a clever bit of detective work Sher-
if King caught Charles Fuller the elop-
ing Waukesha man, in Chicago yester-
dag. The sheriff had warrant for Full
Ter and was confident that he was in
Chicago The Chicago police had no
trace Of him and Mr.. King determined to
do a little detective work on his own ac-
count. He came to the conclusion that
Fuller was not too clever to be caught
through the pOstoffice and determined to
wait in the office until Fuller came 70,
his mail He first ascertained that there
was Il letter in the office for Fuller and
made arrangements with the clerk tc give
signal when it was called for, as he
did not think Fuller would be foolish
enough to call for the letter personally.
il WAS not long after the sheriff reached
the office that the signal was given and
he started out after the man who
called for the letter After following
him several blocks the messenger dodrpd
into an alley and King ran at top speed
until he reached the entrance Of the al
ley and was just in time 10 see Fuller re-
cciye the letter. Fuller was very much
suIpr sed to see the officer. but made no
attempt to escape. He asked the sheriff
if he had requisition papers with him and
was told that he had not. After some ar
@iment he decided that he would rather
come without the papers than to wait i'll
the Chicago Jail until they were secured
and the sheriff brought him to Waukesha
yesterday afternoon. The news Of the
capture reached Waukesha a short time
ahead Of the sheriff and when the train
came III there was quite crowd to meet
it. Fuller was handcuffed to the sheriff
and taken to the jail that way. Before
leaving Chicago Fuller told the sheriff

to bring home the clipping girl. He was
given the address of the house where

sion but finally persuaded the landlady to

her that Fuller was in the hands of the
officers and persuaded her to return to
Waukesha with him and they reached

arraigned in the municipal court this
morning and his examination was set for
Monday. October 9. The charge against
him is abandonment and the warrant
was sworn out by his deserted wife. Mrs.

CHARGE CONSPIRACY.
The Electric Road Has Trouble in
Racine Making Passengers Put
Fares in Boxes.

Racine, Wis. Sept. 3d. Special
The first real clash in the carfare fight
occurred last night, when a load of work
men absolutely refused to put their fares
in the box The motorman refused to
proceed with the car until the fares were
paid. After waiting for twenty minutes
an official Of the company arrived and
collected the fares of the men and took
the names of everyone of the passengers.
The men readily gave their names ana
the car proceeded on its way, the men
feeling that they had been victorious
over the company. 1t is understood that
warrants have been sworn out against
the men and that they will be prosecuted
on charge of conspiracy.
The company has a dozen detectives
here to carry on the company's fight to
make passengers put their fares in the
boxes. The officers are riding on the
cars and are instructed to make arrests
where persons refuse to put their fares in
the boxes

New Method of Coyn Culture.

Experiments in Nebraska have demon
trated that shallow cultivation Of corn
is more effective than the customary deep
er stirring Of the soil. -Four acres of
land were divided into trial tracts of one
acre each, and the land which was stirred
to the depth of six inches yielded fifty
nine bushels, while the land that was
stirred to the depth of only three inches
yielded sixty-eight bushels. The theory
Of shallow cultivation is that it does not
dry out the roots during seasons when
the rain is below normal. 1t also spares
the roots, which by deep cultivation are
torn from the soil and prevented from
securing the proper amount Of nourlsh-
ment for the growing plant.

Women Who Draw the Pillow.

The customs and practices Of the
Doukhobors, who have settled in Cana
da, have lately been a fruitful subject
for discussion, and misleading and en-
roneous statements have occa sionally
been made. One to the effect that the
men forced the women to do the work of
animals by dragging their plows, was ac-
companied in a number of Canadian pa
pers by a picture showing about dozen
women harnessed to the implement with
one of the lords of creation driving them.
The Toronto Mail and Empire says the
fact seems to have been that the men
have been at work on a new railway line,
earning from $1.50 to $3.50 per day, and
that in their absence the women, who
realized the urgent Importance of sowing
the ground before the season is past, and
having no oxen, or but extremely few.
at once organized themselves into groups
of twenty to drag the plows and break
up the sod of the wilderness.

WASHINGTON'S LAST YEARS.
Ideally Happy We're the Great States
man and His Wife at Mt. Vernon.

At the time Of his retirement to Mount

as President, ''the tall figure of Washing
ton was only slightly bent, and he was
still supposed to weigh upward of 200
pounds writes William Perrine. of ''The
Last Years of Washington's Life in the
Ladies Home Journal Excepting his
gray hair and his false teeth, and some
trouble in hearing, there was little of the
usual appearance of age in his muscular
person, his gait and his strong, peck
marked face. He was affable and merry
with his best friends, but while he had
the true hospitality Of a Southern gen.
tleman in inviting every visitor from a
distance to his table or to Il bed over
night, his politeness was generally for
NAL Yet if he particularly enjoyed the
conversation of guest he would pay
him the compliment of listening to him
until after 9 o'clock, or even of lighting
him with the candle to a bedroom for
the night. Mrs. Washington at this time
was a healthy, pleasant and unostenta-
tiOus little woman, still showing traces Of
good looks and with seldom anv other
thought than of playing respectfully her
role of mistress Of the house of country
gentleman, Of caring for the negroes, or
of amusing herself with her knitting.
She had great pride in her receipt for
making cherry bounce and on mid
summer day she cut out thirty-two pairs
Of brooches for the men working on the
farm. She had said that she and the
general felt like children just released
from school when he left the presidency
and she told of her satisfaction in settling
down again to the duties of an old-fash-
Toned Virginia housekeeper, steady as u
