. 1t ia often wondered why men who
work in the woods-the lumber
jacks-wear bright-colored clothing.
In the conduct OF the business OF this
world very few things are done with
out good reasons. 1t is the object
of the man whose life is spent in the
woods to make himself as con-
spicuous as possible, so that he can
not be shot by accident by a sports
man or felled by a tree that fellow
workman is chopping down. Gray
and blue and brown, the common
colors of workaday clothing, are too
near the shades of earth and sky and
the barks of trees and the fur of wild
animals to be readily distinguished,
80 foresters and tree choppers wear
the brightest colors, often in plaids
OF clear green, yellow, red and blue.

COMPROMISE Recommended.

Pioneer Press: Attorney General
Douglas in his biennial report will
recommend the acceptance of a COM
promise rendered the state by the
Little Falls & Dakota. The road
obtained 1900 acres more land than
1t was entitled to under it's grant,
and Attorney General Childs sued for
it's recovery. The contention OF the
railroad was that though it had not
completed the thirty mile unite which
would allow it to claim a certain
portion of the grant, it had con-
structed twenty-seven miles, and
therefore had a right to $4,000 acres
more than it had received. 1t is the
advice of Mr.. Chtlds and the present
attorney general that the compro-
mise be accepted. This contemplates
grant of 10000 acres by the state.

How the Labor OF Washing Pots and
Pans May he Lightened.
Take a new whisI broom and cleanse
It thoroughly in hot suds: dry it and
hang it on nail over the sink where
it is within easy reach. At mealtime,
as YOU dish the food for the table, set
the kettle in which it was cooked I'M
mediately in the sink and draw it full
of water, so that every part which the
food has touched will be in soak. ket-
ties that are left to stand unwashed
without any water in them during the
mealtime hour are ten times the trOu-
BILE to clean afterward. 1t takes only
q moment to turn the faucet. and the
kettle will be full probably by the time
you have emptied the next one. Treat
the frying pans-everything in which
you have cooked-in the same way.
Hot water is the best. If you have a
good sized boiler. you can easily spare
enough from it.
When you are ready to begin wash
ing the utensils, take the Whisk broom
and run it around the kettle, removing
oil the bits of food that cling to the
edge OF it; then around the sides and
bottom in the same way. You will find
the broom to be far more useful than
a cloth or than the arrangement of
metal rings which does duty in the
same way. The metal rings are an i'm
provement on the cloth, but not so good
rs the broom. After you have emptied
the rinsing water draw fresh hot wa
ter from the faucet into the kettle,
make a suds with the soap shaker and
with the broom wash the kettle all
over, rinse off the soap under the
faucet and dry.

Smallpox At Saltwater.

Owing to the existence of several
cases OF smallpox in Saltwater, DR..
w. II. Pratt, the city health officer,
Tuesday ordered the public schools
closed. There are seven houses under
quarantine, one of which is outside
the city limits, near the Fairview
cemetery. There are now eight cases
under surveillance, all very light
cases and only three of them that
the health department is satisfied to
be the malignant disease. The fact
that five children affected attended
the public schools prompted their
being closed.

rough and broken. Ii it seems inclined
to crumble and rapid stirring does not
remedy it, add a little Of the acid and
when smooth go on with the oil. Be
careful not to use too much acid, as it
makes it thin. 1t should be thick

WANT THEIR SHARE OF ESTATE
The Children of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Burke
Want the Estate Lett by a Sister
of Mr.. Burke's.

The following extracts from ST..
Paul papers will give the details of
the efforts Of the children of Mr.. and
MIR Peter Burke, old residents of this
city, to get possession OF the estate
OF IL relative who died last June in
st. Paul:
From the st. Paul Dispatch:
Judge Lewis had before him today
the estate Of Mrs. Lizzie Trombley,
deceased, the appeal of Peter Burke
and Others from an order of the pro-
bate court, admitting the will to
probate. ~
Mrs. Trombley, a widow, died last
June. She made a will dated June s.,
1900, in which she made the follow
ing provisions:
TO Uldivine Drapeau, sister, OF
Montreal, $500; to Lizzie Mcknight,
$500; to Charles Trombley, 5000. to
Francis st. Pie re. commonly known
as Francis Trombley, $2OO. All the
residue of her estate, including her
house and lot at 6O2 Robert street
to Miss Emma Lange, who has been
to her, "as u kind of q duff ul daugh-
ter" and she ia made the executrix
of the will.
The estate is valued at 50, 2M.
Miss Lange Is q stenographer and
typewriter, at present engaged at
the National German-American
bank, and Was formerly d clerk In
the probate office.
Mrs. Trombley conceived a liking
for her as little girl, and Miss LANCE
lived with her until grown to
womanhood, and until her patroness'
death.
After the will had been admitted
to probate, the children OF Pierre
Burke, who married a Miss Archam-
beau, a sister of Mrs. Trombley, filed
an affidavit to the effect that they
had had no legal notice of the ex-
istence OF the will, but they had on
the contrary, been informed, that
there was no will, and that the pre-
tended will filed in court was made
under undue influence; that the tes-
tatrix was not OF sound mind.
These heirs, who are now trying
to have the estate reopened, so that
they may attack the will, are:
Peter Burke. Celina DugOs, AL
phonse Burke, Caroline Lachance,
Josephine Robert, Archie Burke,
Minnie Tanner and George Burke.
They allege that they knew OF
no will until Oct. 20, 1900.
From the st. Paul Pioneer Press:
An attempt is being made to set
aside the will OF Mrs. Lizzie TrOmbly
W no died last June. Judge Lewis
yesterday heard the appeal Of Peter
Burke from the order OF Judge Bazille
admitting the will Of probate. The
contestants, who are nephews and
1ieces OF the deceased, allege that the
will was made under undue influence
and that Mrs. Trombly was not OF
sound mind. ...-
By the terms of the will, made
June 8, 1900, 81, 100 was bequeathed
to relatives, and the remainder Of the
estate, including her home at 5O2
Roberts street, was left to Miss
Emma Lange, u stenographer, who
had cared for her for many years.
The estate ia valued at $500. A
motion to dismiss the appeal was
argued and taken under advisement.

. The printed book of rules recently is
sued to the employees Of the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy railroad con.
tains the following: "The use of intoxi-
cants by employees while on duty is
prohibited. Their habitual use or the
frequenting Of places where they are
sold is sufficient cause for their dis
missal The use of tobacco by employ
ees when on duty in or about passen-
ger stations or on passenger cars Is pro-
hibited." 1t has long been an under.
stood matter on this road that the use
Of liquor and tobacco was discounte-
nanced by the management, but this Is
the first time the order has been print
ed ir the book of rules. 1t is, however,
a rule which the public will approve, as
upon it's observance depends to re-.
s'lnarkable degree the safety of railroad
travelling. All great railroads and cor
porations the proper conduct Of which
Is conditioned upon the clearness of
head and steadiness Of hand Of the
employees are coming to the conclusion
that the use Of liquor and tobacco does
not contribute to the efficiency and
faithfulness CT workmen and are con-
sequently discountenancing those who
indulge in such forms Of dissipation.
Without uaduly trenching upon the
private rights OF their employees 1t is
entirely proper for employers at least
in occupations where: the public inter-
ests and ,weil being are involved, to en-
act such qualities Of brain, nerve and
muscle as shall insure safe, careful and
efficient service. While such corpora
items are thus aiding themselves ard
the public they are teaching their EN-
ployees a valuable temperance lesson
which cannot fail to improve their
moral and material condition.

WELL, FERRIS DIDN'T LOSE.

The predictions made at the time
A. F. Ferris, of Brainerd, knocked all
the chances George r. Laybourn
ever had of being speaker Of the
house by remaining in the contest
when he pledged his support to Mr..
Laybourn, and thereby preventing
the Sixth district from uniting, to
the effect that the st. Louis county
members and the Sixth district
generally could hope for little from
the new speaker seems to have come
true. They got as little from
Speaker bowling, as he could give
them. There is one. exception to
this, however. Mr.. Ferris seems to
have all that he wanted. 1t was
predicted at that time that when
Mr.. Bowling announced his COM
mittees Mr.. Ferris would be remem-
bered in whatever he wished to be.
1t is commonly accepted in St.
Paul that Mr.. Ferris landed Mr..
Bowling in the speakers chair.
There is no doubt OF it among the
friends of Mr.. Lay bourn, and they
do not feel very kindly toward Mr..

feelings, for that would not be
