A CALIFORNIAN sw1NDLED.
Trades His Farm for Land Which
Has No Existence,

ST. LOUIS. April 5.-Charles Steele,
with his wife and three children. from
Los Angeles County, Cal, where he
owned a farm of 23O acres, is in the
city penniless. One month ago he
traded his fertile farm in California for
1000 acres of land in Tennessee which
had no existence, and paid 81 600 be-
sides. After paying the 81 900 he bare
ly had enough left to get the trans
portation to Tennessee for himself and
family. When they got to fleetwood,
the county seat of Scott County, he
found there was no such land as his
deed called for. Lawyers advised him
to return to California and sue to re-
cover his farm and money. He had
enough money to get to Cincinnati.
There the family was given transporta-
ton to ST. Louis. Mr. Steele is trying
to get transportation to California.

MAKING HOMES ATTRACTIVE
An Unsightly Factory Suburb Made
to blossom as the Rose.

1.-THE common opinion that factory
districts are necessarily ugly and unin-
viting has usually led residents OF these
districts to accept the existing condl-
tions as inevitable writes E. L. Shuey
| in the "Woman's Home Companion"
citing a notable instance to the con-
| trary. yet it is an interesting fact
| that factory and factory cOmnun-
| ity in one of our middle western cities
has done more than any other institu-
| ton or section to illustrate what may
be done by unity of effort, and by the
| simple use of those vines and shrubs
which may be cultivated in every 10
cality. A few years ago 1t was as I'M
| inviting as any similar place, but now
| it has vines and flowers and gardens
in every corner; front and back yards,
fences and walls, windows, doorWays
and verandas show the pleasing orna-
mentation of green foliage. How was
this accomplished? First, the owners
of the factory, cleared up their own
grounds and planted vines and shrubs
everywhere possible. This example of
neatness was followed by many house
holders in the district Then a few
public spirited ones united in an or
ganization, each member of which was
not only to make his own grounds
beautiful, but was to induce at least
two others to do the same.
The rules followed in planting were:
1-Open lawn centers, leaving the lawn
clear for good view. 2Planting in
masses along the borders. 3-Planting
in curves rather than in straight lines
Add to these rules the precept that
fences are unsightly and should be COW
cred with foliage; that walls and
porches should be made picturesque by
vines, and that the rear yard should be
kept in as good condition as the front.
The association extended an invitation
to the people of the whole community
to join the movement, and it grew rap
idly. IL soon became popular to plant
vines and shrubs and cultivate flowers.
The employment of such vines as the
morning glory, moon flower, wistaria.
IVY, trumpet creeper and honeysuckle
and of shrubs like spiraea, deutzia,
wiegala, barberry and others has com
pletely changed the appearance of a
neighborhood that was formerly dull
and uninteresting.'

Jackson his wife and their 3 months
Old baby We're found dead in bed this
morning. Jackson and his wife each
mad pistol shot in the head, while the

was evidently instantaneous in each

shot his wife and child, and then him
self. The deed was done during the

sons grandmother, who was not awak-

jackson was a young business man of
nigh standing, and married jamie God

two years ago. Until recently he was
cashier and bookkeeper for a warehouse
hrm. 1t is supposed he brooded over
the loss of his position, and killed his

which bring out In bold relief much Of
human nature as II Is met in everyday
life. Throughout the entire play, we
are told. there is vein of healthful
comedy which appeals to the better in
stincts and is very humorous, without
an linking of coarseness or vulgarity
Music songs and dances are introduced,
and all the latest electric and mechani-
cal effects are used together with a
carload of special scenery. The artists
appearing in the cast have been Sc
lected says Manager Forrest, with the
greatest care and nothing has been left
undone to make the performance COM
plete. The story of The Pay Train
is of thrilling interest. The play is not
a railroad drama as the name would
imply, but is very pleasing comedy,
full of heart interest and pathos, telling
a very interesting story with clean
plot which is unfolded in a most inter
es,ting manner. The scenery is novel
and fine and the mechanical effects ex-
tremely realistic. Among them may
be mentioned a wreck on an inclined
railroad and boiler explosion
The Denver Post" of February 9th
says of the play as given in that city:
Sensational situations and events
follow each other quickly, eliminating
in the climax of the last act-the boiler
explosion and wrecking of the ore car
on the incline, a triumph of stage real
ism.
The manager, Forrest, has carefully
selected people to support Miss Ollie
Halford, among whom may be noted
Harry Stoddard, William Tulley, Carrie
Bell, Vivian Rossiter and others of
equal merit. Pleasing specialties are
interspersed throughout the play, in
troduced in an entertaining manner by
Herbert Denton, Chester DeMond, Wv
