how disagreeable it is to wake up in the
morning and find the milk-can and con-
-tents gone. or, perhaps. the drained can
is left to tell the tale of a petty theft.
Here is cheap and simple device which
will prevent the theft Of the milk with
Aout making it any more difficult for the
housekeeper to take in the pail in the
morning. The cut shows a small casing,
which may be attached to the door frame
at the right height to place the pail within
convenient reach. A small opening In
the top of the casing allows the shank Of
e the angle-iron on the can to be inserted,
while sliding catch at the rear Of the
casing engages a notch cut in the side Of
the shank The latch extends backward
/: 10 the edge Of the door. 50 that when the
latter is closed it prevents the latch being
drawn backward to release the shank.
Besides preventing theft. this device also
supports the can in position to remove
the danger OF tipping it over with the
F foot. and there will be no milk stains to
clean up. as is often the case when the
can is placed on the steps. The inventor

of major. Several times he was appointed
to be District Attorney of the united
States for the District of West Virginia,
ana under Hays he served an unexplred
norton of the term as Secretary OF the
Navy, Richard w. Thompson having
resigned.
At the present time this favorite Of for
tune is a judge in the United States CIR
cult Court his jurisdiction extending over
Maryland, the two Virginias, and the two
Carolinas. He lives in a handsome mouse
in Clarksburg, the town in which he was
born, and he is one of the most agree
able men in the world. Those who are
closeststo him say that his political career
has terminated with the appointment to
the Circuit Court Bench. His judicial
mind enjoys the work, and the honor OF
the stations is exceeded in but few gifts
bestowed by the American people. There
is some talk heard of the Judge as good
choice for Vice-President, but It's doubted
whether he would entertain the thought.
But, whatever he does, he has little occa-
sion to join a don't-worry society. AS
far as can be seen on the surface, the
world is dealing right fairly by Judge
Goff, and by all the visible signs it
deserves to.

Wolf Summit gives all promise OF
becoming a good oil town. The weis

a day or two ago that some OF his wells
were doing as much now as when they
first came in. The sand is deep, and the
pressure good, and the daily yield comes
as though from a. reservoir. we'll supplied
with oil. It is a field somewhat expen-
sive to operate in. owing to the depth,
which is in the neigborhood of $500 1eet.
and the need of a long string of casing.

ing is an ordinary job. a driller over on
