Mrs. Leach.

was we'll a week ago, but caught
cold. We have another pet, Podgy, a
parrot, who has been with US for TWEEN
ty-five years. Podgy knows something
has happened to Donald. I did not see
my dear little doggie in his coffin. Those
who did said that he looked lovely. But
do not care to talk a. bout the funeral"
Miss Genevieve McHugh, the seven
teen-year-old daughter of an under
taker at No. % KOsciusko street, said:
Mrs Leach came to our store and
said: My dear little Donald is dead.
Doggie was like a child. 1 want nice
little coffin for him, and a coach to call
at our home and convey his dear little
body to the Long Island railroad sta
ton
Il showed Mrs. Leach a coffin, but she
said: I would not have my dead dog
gle stuffed into a coffin like that We
then trimmed a handsome casket with
silver handles and silver thumbscrews
and at noon sent coach to the Hart
street house. The burial was in Lyn-
brook L. l., where the teaches have
their country seat. Another undertaken
took charge of matters there"

TO DEFRAUD PRIEST.
Two Whisky Men Arrested in Chicago
on a Serious Charge.

New York, March 25.-Max Levy, a
wholesale liquor dealer of 81 Carmine
street. and Marcus ROsenthal, a whisky
broker of 781 Park avenue. and his wife
Hattie, were arraigned before Magis-
trate Brann in the Harlem police court
this morning on a charge of conspiring
to defraud Terrence Rafferty,, Catholic
priest, out of real estate and buildings
on East Eleventh and Delaney streets.
Levy and ROsenthal were each held
under bonds of $4,000 for examination
before Magistrate Brann on Thursday.
The woman was released in the Gus
tody of her lawyer.
According to Rafferty's complaint, the
property involved has a value of be-
tween SIS, 900 and 500, 900.
In his complaint the priest says that
Levy and the Rosenthals, while he was
under the influence of liquor, induced
him to turn over to them deeds and
mortgages for the property and alleged
in an affidavit that the defendants kept
him habitually intoxicated in order to
get his property.

Na'S Handsome Stock
of Millinery.
Miss Wilson'S New York Trip, The
Topeka Cash" Millinery the
Correct Thing.

Topeka is filled with pretty millinery
this season. Nearly all the dealers seem
to have invested in larger stocks than
usual. For several years back there has
been a noticeable Improvement each
year over the preceding, not alone in
the quantity but also in the quality of
the offerings by our Millinery concerns.
Whatever may have been the conditions
formerly. there is certainly no occasion
this year for any woman, however criti-
cal, going away from home to buy her
Easter bonnet. She will not only pay
more in Kansas City but she will not
improve any on the style or quality. We
believe Miss Wilson is showing in her
department at The Topeka Cash Dry
Goods Co. just as beautiful hats as any
to be found In any store in Kansas City
or st. Joseph. She bought the bulk of
her stock this year in New York, though
a part of 1T came from ST. Louis and
Chicago. We understand Miss Wilson
was the only milliner from Topeka who

SEARCHING FOR ANDREE.
Prof Nathorst Will Lead an Expedi-
ton to the East Greenland Coast.

Stockholm, March 25-It is said that
Baron Nordenskjold has in his dining
room a photograph of the ascent of
Andree's balloon and an empty space
beside it to which he pointed recently
as he said to visitor:
"A photograph of Andree's landing
will be hung there, for am firmly con-
WINGED that he will return
His confidence is shared by Nansen
and most other Scandinavians who have
had experience in the Arctic regions
and it is not surprising therefore to
hear that they propose this season to
continue their quest for the intrepid
aeronaut. The leading search party
will be under the command of Prof.
Nathorst who thinks it likely that
Andree and his two companions Strind-
berg and Frankel, reached the coast of
East Greenland and are still alive in
that region, where they may be sub
sisting on musk oxen and other animals
TO be found there.
The professor will accordingly start
in June next and try to force a passage
through the ice barrier to the East
Greenland coast. If Andree is there and
was able to push on to Angmagsalik in
66 degrees N. lat, he is all right for
there is a Danish station at that point
among the most northern Eskinos of
the east coast and the supply ship would
bring Andree home when she makes
her annual visit next summer. So
Nathorst will not visit that part of the
coast but will push much further north
to Cape Bismarck if possible, and if he
finds no trace of Andree there he pro-
poses to go further north by sledge.
The coast between Cape Bismarck and
Independence Bay has not been explored
and if the professor has occasion to
make the proposed sledge journey he
will have a fine opportunity to fill in a
long stretch of Greenland's outline that
is still unknown.

and money is now raising in Sweden
for the other expenses of the expedition
Nathorst may find it necessary to win
ter III Greenland, as the difficult navi-
cation in the ice-choked coast waters
may prevent the return of his vessel this
season.

Free Binding Twine.

Washington. March 24.-The secretary
of the treasury has issued an order for
the free mission of binding Irvine to the
United States from Canada. This is be-
cause of the fact that the new Canadian
tariff puts binding Irvine on the free
list when imported into that country
and our tariff law only imposes a duty
on the Irvine when imported from coun-
tries which makes the article dutiable.
