FUGITIVE IN FEMALE GARB.
SandusiSy's Absconding City Clerk Re-
turns Home in Disguise.

Sandusky, o., Aug. Ga. w. Miller,
Sandusky's absconding city clerk, was
seen here disguised as a woman. He
was recognized near his former resi-
dence by Henry Damming and an at
tempt was made to arrest him. but he
effected his escape. His wife is in New
York and when lights were seen about
the residence neighbors became inter-
ested. Miller stole into the city at
night from Mexico, where he has a son
connected with the government in high
official capacity. He went to a hotel
kept by a close friend, whose wife
loaned him a complete outfit of female
wearing apparel, and thus disguised be,
went to his former residence and spent
several hours about the place, which
has been vacated for some time having
been turned over to his bondsmen. Mil
Ter was injured before he left in rail-
road wreck and has a peculiar limp,
which disclosed his identity to his
neighbors, who CHANGED to see him at
night about the house, which has been
closed for several weeks. AS city clerk
he handled large amounts of money,
much of which he deposited in local
banks to his personal credit and drew
out on personal checks. An expert who
was employed to examine his books
discovered scores of false entries and
stood in with Miller to conceal them
before making an official report. Miller
was blackmailed out OF several thou
sand dollars by the expert under prom
Use that his crimes would be covered
up. but the expert and Miller had
quarrel about the final settlement and
both Miller and the expert fed to es-
cape arrest. Miller left here tonight for
the east, still wearing his disguise De-
tectives are on his trail.

" STRICTLY FRESH EGGS"
You Cannot Make Hens Lay When They
Don't Want To.

You Cannot Make Hens Lay When They
Don't Want To.
With all that men of science have
done to procure for our tables luxuries
without regard to season, so that al
most we say there is no season." no
one of them has yet succeeded in
wheedling a hen into laying her best
and biggest eggs at any other season
of the year than that at which the
primal hen so distinguished herself.
There have been many experiments of
all kinds tried with regard to Matching
chickens and they have all been more
or less successful, till the term Spring
chicken" has become q misnomer. Or
rather there are others beside spring
chickens. We have winter chickens,
thanks to incubators and breeders and
all sorts of appliances, and fall chick
ems and summer chickens, and chick
ems in between seasons, which is one
OF the compensations scattered all
through life If We look for them. But
the hen plods on in that tiresome un-
changing way and looks untouched by
all the means that man has invented
for Matching her eggs for her, though
no one knows just what she thinks.
Probably her line of thought takes the
stand that you may lead a hen to any
kind of artificially warmed and lighter
nest, but you cannot make her lay;
and cold storage has done much to
make us Indifferent to the stubborn at
titude of the hen. The farmer who
doesn't know that he may by the care
he takes of his hens influence the man
ner and kind of eggs they lay for him
does not deserve to succeed. Hens like
clean, sunny houses, and they like
good wholesome food, and in variety.
They want a certain amount OF corn
and meal and they dearly love flavor
of meat in their food. Also they like
something in the nature of oyster
shells that the shells of the
eggs may be up to standard quality.
Housekeepers who receive day after
day from their grocer eggs of not only
uniform size and of even Uniting
either all white or with n tinge of
brown-take it as a matter of course,
and think perhaps that it is just so in
every case. But there are sorters
whose business it is to put into cases
eggs that match" in color and size.
And they do say that in Boston the
brownish eggs have the first call, while
in New York the demand is for purest
white 1t is this demand for uniform
ity in size and color that induces a
poultry farmer to have his hens all of
one breed-Epicure.

ings on"
Now Jared, absorbed in speculation
as he was, had kept little corner
OF his heart for Rose; and thought
himself miracle of constancy because
ne had not allowed another to share
II. There are pretty girls in Kansas;
and there was one in particular, with
wopdrous dimples. that he had noticed,
just barely noticed, you know-so he
made the customary remarks about fe-
male perfidy. He wrote Rose biting
letter-and tore it up; for a subtler
revenge had occurred to him. He di-
vined that Rose preferred him to
Harold-if he succeeded in making
money; and he plotted accordingly.
From this date his correspondence
took on a dismal hue. The boom was
declining; and there were vague hints
Of pitfalls that ensare the unwary and
the inexperienced. Close on the heels
of these dire forebodings, followed a
rumor that Jared had come home I'M
expectedly, looking very seedy; and it
was surmised, dead broke"
Friends and neighbors, Rose and
Harold among them, promptly gath
cred on the broad piazza to greet the
home conner, and learn the truth of the
matter. One glance at the young
mans doleful face was enough. Dis
aster was written on it.
At first he seemed cisinclined to
talk; but numerous we'll put queries
finally loosened his unwilling tongue.
Among the friends Jared made in the
west was one who had been born un-
der an unlucky star. He was intelli-
gent and shrewd; but everything he
touched turned to ashes. Where others
reaped golden harvests, he reaped mis-
fortune, and his affairs became serious
ly involved. He was too young to
know that while there is life there is
hope; and one night, Jared, who room
ed with him, came home to find his
friend stretched on the floor with a
bullet through his head, and the
empty revolver In his own stiffening
right hand.
With the callousness OF youth, Jared
adapted this young fellows story to his
own uses. Up to the eliminating
tragedy, he told it as his own, and told
It well. He was a clever actor, and
fully realized the dramatic possibili-
ties of the situation.
The stage setting was perfect. A
rising thunder storm had dyed the
summer twilight an inky black; and
continual flashes of lightning illum-
mated Jared's handsome, melancholy
face and sombre eyes. He sat oppo-
site his false sweetheart and Harold;
and behind him, the old man, white
faced but firn-lipped, glared over his
boys head like wounded lion.

WANTS A COURT-MARTIAL
Ex-Secretary Chandler Accuses
Fighting Bob" Evans.
MAY APPEAL TO CONGRESS.
VIII Carry Up Case In Event Longs
Department Fails to Act as Requested
Says Evans Is Guilty or Conduct I'm
becoming an Onicer."

! Washington, d. c., Aug. 6.-"Fight-
ing Bob" Evans will be court-mar-
tailed for criticising in "a Sailors
Log" former Secretary of the Navy
Chandler, If the latter can bring
enough influence to bear to secure the
result Those who know the tenacity
of the New Hampshire ex-senator
claim he will not give up the fight
against Admiral Evans until the lat
ter has been brought before a court.
His determination to press the matter
is made stronger because ex-senator
Chambers letter to Secretary Long
has been ignored by the Secretary of
the Navy and Evans. When the let
ter of protest against Admiral Evans
language was received it was referred
to Evans, but no attention whatever
was paid to it. Fighting Bob" who
did not care to become involved in a
controversy, simply placing the COM
munication on file. Secretary Long,
in discussing the matter said: 1T is
simply tempest in a teapot 1t is
entirely too trivial to notice. have
no time to devote to such petty
things" Ex-senator Chandler did not
relish the treatment accorded him by
the present head of the Navy Depart
ment and he has been quietly nursing
his wrath. After waiting a reason
able time for reply and not receiving
one Mr.. Chandler has determined to
force the fighting. He believes more
Difference should be shown him and
that a naval officer should be severely
disciplined for discourtesy to his
former chief. Admiral Evans, when
seen, declined to discuss the matter,
saying he did not care to become in
volved in a controversy with Mr..
Chandler. Secretary Long and Mr..
Chandler are both out of the city.
During the absence of Secretary Long
nothing. 1t will require all the in
fluence of the ex-senator to have Ad-
miral Evans called to account, as Sec
rotary Long frankly said he would
not take cogniZance Of the matter.
Any person not connected with the
es against an army or naval officer,
and the charge should be investigated.
If ex-senator Chandler fails to get sat-
isfaction from the department he will
appeal to Congress. in which body he
has many warm friends. Mr.. Chand-
