Burglars Abound.

Sometime Sunday night sneak thieKes
entered the residence of Hugh McInnes
and taking a suit of clothes worn by him
to the yard outside rihed the pockets
and left the suit upon the verands..
Entrance was effected by removing the
screen from an open window. His loss
consists of less than dollar in change
besides some rare old coins and a gold
watch. Nothing else in the house was
was disturbed though ladies' watch lay
on the dresser in plain sight. The same
night someone attempted to open a win
dow at M. Pelton's residence but were
frightened away by nurse who was
awake at the time. Monday night a
couple of window screens on W. T. Pom
eroy's house were removed but the win
dows were closed and the thieves could
not gain admission.

Death of Mrs SDeIman.

Death came to the relief Of Mrs. H., O.
Spelman, whose serious illness was noted
in our last paper, and deep bereavement
flied the home of the pastor Of the Con-
gregational church of this CITY Mrs.
Spelman has been in poor health for
some time but was not confined to
her bed until June. I'd, when her con-
dition became SO alarming that her
mother was asked to come from Michi-
gan, remaining in constant attention I'M
til her death, which occurred at 9:15
Tuesday evening. Mary e. Bostwick
was born in Edinburgh, Ohio, Dec. 1,
1866, removing with her parents to Gov
ert, Mich, at the age of 16. May 9Th,
1890, she was unitedAin matrimony to
Rev. FL. 0. Spelman and soon after re-
moved to Kansas for a few years The
family came to Edgerton in 1895 when
Rev. Spelman was called as pastor of the
Congregational church in this city
During her residence here Mrs. Spelmah
endeared herself to many friends who
keenly feel the. deep affection Chat has
come upon this family. Four small
children, the eldest but years of age
are left without mothers care and af-
lection. Bowed down with a heavy
sorrow Rev. Spelman and family left
with the remains on the 4:3O p. m. train
Wednesday for Covert, Mich, the home
of her parents, where the burial will take
place. Surely what comfort the sympa-
thy of our community affords, is with
them in their great affection.

Crushed by the Train.

The mangled body of Willie Kaufman
Hanerville by the engineer of the west
bound evening passenger train Saturday
night. The train conveyed the remains
to Stoughton where they were identified
and relatives in this city were notified.
Willie had been in Stoughton during
most of the week and had written his
mother that he had secured job there
and would be home Saturday for his
clothes. The last seen of him alive was
when he boarded the 4:25 o'clock train
at Stoughton, getting on between the
engine and baggage car, presumably to
steal ride to Edgerton. Just how he
met death will probably never be known
but in some manner he must have fallen
between the engine and car and the train
passed over his body. An examination
of his injuries disclosed large hole in
the back of his head that crushed his
skull and his legs badly cut and man
gled. The remains were brought here
by team Saturday night and the body
prepared for burial at Clarke's under
taking rooms.
The deceased was a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry Kaufman of this city and
aged nearly II years, having been born
and reared in Edgerton. Funeral SER
vices were held from the home Monday
morning and the remains of the unfort-
innate boy lain at rest in Fasset cemetery.

PRIX DE ROME.
Ordeal for Art Students to Undergo
to Obtain 1t.

A promise has been made to lodge art
students competing for the Prix de Rome
In the yalace at COmpiegne but has not
as yet been kept The ten selected TO
compete must mediate in cells at the
Ecole des BeauX Arts The ordeal to
which competitors are subjected was be-
gun today. They are to work in solitary
confinement during seventy-two days.
but the first thirty-siX hours are the most
trying. The cell is barer than any in a
monastery, where the crucifix relieves the
Darkness of the walls. All the furniture
would not fetch 100 francs at the auction
mart. 1t consists of a mattress, pillow
and bolster, rush mat, an easel, a chair
and small table There is nothing else
As light comes from above there is no
outlook.
The competitor is thrown completely
upon himself, but especially during tho
first three days. He is then deprived of
all communication with the outside world
and is to all intents and purposes in jail
The sketch of his competing picture must
be made in that time. He may subse-
quently modify his design, but must not
change the main features. The figures
are to keep their original attitude, no
figure is to be withdrawn, and the design
is to be duplicated. One of the two draw
ings is sealed up and sent to a jury.
The student keeps the other. This done.
the door of the cell is unlocked, the oc-
cupant can go in and out, pay but not Te-
ceive visits, and is free to take his meals
where he pleases. He may take his draw
ing to his master, and consult with him
as to the best means of hiding general de-
fects or enhancing what Is meritorious by
means of changes in detail and by effects
OF color.
1t sometimes happens that there is a
triplicate, SO that a copy may be given
to the professor should he be disposed to
work it up. But this is against the spirit
of the rules In point of fact, 1t is rare
not to see the masters hand in the Prix
de Rome paintings when they are finished
and ready to be exhibited. The subjects
are chosen by the jury and generally are
classical or historical, and demand what
is termed here a noble style of treatment
Plutarch's Tacitus and Caesar are the
great purveyors of subjects. Scenes from
sacred history are sometimes chosen.
There is no more uniutaresting exhibition
than that of the Prix de Rome. Seldom
indeed is originality shown, or the prom

LASTING BUBBLES.
Those Made by New Process VIII
Keep for Several Days.
BOSTON Herald.

Boston Herald.
Nearly all the boys and girls like to
blow soap bubbles, but the trouble with
these pretty, many-colored globes IS that
they burst so easily. This need not Dc
the case il they are blown with the mix
ture the recipe for which is given mere:
cut into very thin shavings one-fourth OF
an ounce of CASTLE soap; dissolve TINS IN
ten ounces of water, which is Kept warm
mot hoD, and when this soap mixture Is
cool filter it; put this into slXtecn-ouhce
bottle Ca full pint bottle holds sixteen
Cunces), and add glycerine to Il until the
bottle is full; put the glycerine in a very
little at a time, corl1ing up the bottle and
shaking it as hard as you can after every
few drops of glYcerina. When the bottle
has been filled and thoroughly mixed by
shaking as above directed CORK 1t up
and set away where it will not be dis
turbed for n few days.
In a short time the mixture will become
muddy-lOclzing, but after a few days a
white laver will be found floating on the
ton while the rest of it will be clear.
This clear part must be drawn out with
out stirring up the top layer, and this can
be done by the use of Siphon. a siphon
may be made from any piece of small
tubing The tube must be first filed with
water, ard if it is a small tube it may be
pinched near the middle and the water
will not run out even when the end hangs
down. Lower one end Of the tube to the
bottom of the bottle and let the other end
hang down outside. Be sure that the out
side end hangs lower than the bottom of
the bottle. Ii you have managed this
right, first the water that was in the tube
and then the mixture will begin to run
out of the tube and will not stop until
the bottle IS emptied. Let the water run
out of the tube first, then as soon as the
mixture begins to come out catch ii in
another bottle. AS soon as the white
layer on top IF the mixture comes down
to the bottom of the bottle take the tube
out, as you only want the clear part
Large and beautiful bubbles may be
blown with this glycerine mixture, and If
they are allowed to rest on a bone teeth
ing ring or soft woollen cloth they will
keep their shape for three or four hours
If glass shade is placed over the bubble
1t will keep for three or four days.

Wheat has fuctuated widely the past
week. Prices tended downward until the
close of the week, when the market began
to show signs of Improvement on reports
that were detrimental to crop prospects.
The advance in prices was not, however,
maintained. though at times there were
indications that the reports were not cx-
aggerated, and that the shortage in yield
would give the long expec ct upturn to
prices. Sudden changes in the weather
had the effect OF weak ming the bull at
tack, and the bears, though cautious, took
advantage of the situation and realized
while they could. The gain for the week
is in fractions. 1t is something, but not
sufficient to give indication of a perma-
nent Strengthening of the market. On the
contrary, the near approach of harvesting
OF the new crop will likely have a ten
dency to weaken rather than to
strengthen the bull position.
Corn had a good week, but, like wheat,
weakened at the c!osy here were re-
ports that the next crop of corn would
be lessened by weather conditions, but
then came better reports, and the prices
quickly gave way. The outlook for corn
ar present is by no means bullish
There has been only a fair demand for
