More Alleged Confessions.

There We're some startling Developments
in the Goebel assassination case today.
This afternoon w. H Culton, who waiv-
ed examination and was held over to the
circuit court. went to, the Capitol hotel
where he was In conference with the at
torneys for the prosecution for over two
hours He was accompanied by his
brother-in-law, f. f. Hogg who Is also
his attorney. II was reported at the time
that Culton had made some kind OF con-
fession. but later tonight 1t developed
that the Information gained was not as
sweeping In character as 1t was at first
reported. Cultons friends, who are In
his confidence, say that his statement was
not In the nature OF n confession. but
they admit that he gave the prosecution
such information as he had and which
had heretofore not come out.
The conference between Culton and the
attorneys took place In the room % Col
Campbell. Commonwealths Attorney
Franklin. County Attorney Polsgrove,
Rev. Mr.. Cuton, father OF the prisoner,
and E. f. Hogg.
While this was going on II. II. Youtsey,
the auditors clerk who was arrested at
noon and locked up In Jail charged with
being an accessory, sent for Col. Camp
bell. and the latter visited him at the jail
and was closeted with him for some time.
Youtsey, when he was arrested today.
told the officers that the prosecution had
promised not to arrest him, and he com
plained that that side had broken faith
with him. IL is not known what took place
at the interview between Noutsey and
Campbell but II IS reported that Youtsey
announced that he was ready to make
public statement. which the prosecution
evidently did not cafe to have made, at
least for the present.

mits had been granted only to persons
whose applications had been recommended
by the chief OF engineers.
Carter said while It was known that
excavations made in the Alaskan waters
would be made for gold, it was precisely
such a permit as would be granted 10

DOMESTIC DOINGS.


"A chapter on deserts has been re-
quested and 10 the recipes which are
given tonight have been procured. Il
is little wonder that the women should
desire and ask for such directions, for
to the mind feminine there is nothing
in the culinary line which appeals to
them more than a dainty sweetmeat
with which to finish q meal. Baked
apples are not particularly UNIQUE as q
desert nor are they expensive. but the
are very delicious when prepared with
dates and nuts. Mrs. H. 8. Hafbert says
that nice large tart apples should be
selected and the cores carefully re-
moved. Fill the cavities with mixture
of dates and any kind OF favorite nuts
chopped fine. Sprinkle sugar on them
and cover with a little water. When
served with whipped cream q more pal
ntable dish could scarcely be con-
tcocted.

WALL PAPER.
The successor OF Tapestry. stamped
Leather and Paper Cloth.

A remarkable fact in regard to wall
paper is that the method OF printing the
better sort Of paper is probably the same
now us it ever has been. Wooden blocks
with the de'iRn cut in relief. one for each
color. are applied by hand, and in order
to suit the productions of the paper mills
these blocks are made in England p.
inches wide and in France Is inches
wide. The length of the block is limited
to what the workman can easily lift with
n hand. two feet being about the limit,
as the blocks are necessarily thick and in
many cases made heavier by being inlaid
with copper. especially the thin outlines.
which. II mode OF wood. would not stand
the wear and tear Of printing.
It was not till the eighteenth century
that wall paper in anything like its pres
ent form came into COMMON use in Eu-
rope. although 1t appears to have been
used much earlier in China. A few rare
examples, which may be us early as the
sixteenth century, exist in England, but
these are in limitations. generally in
flock" like the old Genoese and Tloren-
tine cut %yelvets, and hence the style OF
the design in no way indicates the date
Of the wall paper, the same traditional
patterns being Reproduced with little Or
no change for many years. 1t was not
till the end OF the eighteenth century
that the machinery to make paper in
long strips was invented. Up to thut
time wall papers were printed on small
square pieces of handmade paper aud
were very expensive. On this account
wall paper was slow In superseding the
old mural decorations, such as tapestry,
stamped leather and piper cloth.
The wall papers now printed by ma
chinery have the designs cut on the
surface Of wooden rollers, under which
the paper passes. In the chcnper grades
all colors are applied rapidly, one after
the other. without allowing each to dry
separately, and a somewhat blurred APP
pearance is generally the result. De.
signing wall paper patterns is an occupn-
ton for women, which is highly lucrative
to those who possess skill and ingenuity.
