WORKS ASA DAYLABORER
LYNN b. M'MULLEN TANNED BY THE
SUNS HOT RAYS.
ShOrtridge Professor of Physics
Building a Little Cottage Practi-
calIy with His own Hands.

There is one man in Indianapolis for
whom trusts, monopolies and combinations
have no terrors and who does not fear a
strike among house builders, although he
himself is now erecting a home. This man
is Lynn B. McMullen, professor of physics
in the Shortridge High School. The reason
Of such independence on his part is that
McMullen is putting up his own home.
With the aid of two, and sometimes only
one. helper the energetic teacher is build
ing a residence on Thirty-sixth street, be-
tween Pennsylvania and Meridian.
Three weeks ago the work on the foun-
dation was commenced, and now the cellar
is completed and the framework Of the
house is all up. 1t is believed the building
will be sufficiently equipped that 1t can be
inhabited by the first of October. McMul-
len has done all the work with one or two
helpers. as said before, and they are as
inexperienced the boss" He made the
plans for the dwelling. and when it is fin
ished he can say truthfully that he built
the house. The house will have six rooms,
three upstairs and three below. 1t will
also have all modern improvements and be
strictly up to date.
AN ENERGETIC MAN.
Those who are acquainted with McMullen
will not be surprised to learn of his scheme
of building his own home. He is a decd-
edly energetic man and genius in all lines
of tinkering and carpentering. In fact
there is little work of a manual nature
that he cannot do. Another reason why
the professor is doing the work himself is
the benefit to his health from the outdoor
work and exercise. Some time ago McMul-
len suffered a severe illness and was COM
PEELED to leave school, and thought that
such work as he is now doing would be a
fine thing for the upbuilding of his health
Many students pay their teacher a visit
and there is always interested crowd
watching the progress of the work One
would scarcely recognize the stern and Sc
date teacher in the man bossing the work
on the house and doing much of ii himself
with as much earnestness as he would dis
play in explaining a proposition in physics.
The neat-appearing instructor of the Short
ridge High School would also surprise his
friends could they see him now in the garb
OF a laborer. industriously working away
In the hot sun. only looking up occasionally
to greet a visitor When the house is fin
ished it is said that Mr.. McMullen and
his wife will give "house warming" that
all the students may see that their teacher
not only knows how to instruct them in
school, but also can build a house prac-

were allowed to handle the weapons and in
spect them, but it is said they took care
not to have the muzzles of the guns point
ing toward the outlaw. Tracy all this time
had a revolver himself and left no opening
for the farmers TO get the drop on him.
That the outlaw stood in no fear of Eddy
and his men attempting TO take advantage
of the opening was vouched for by himself,
he having remarked to the farmer: II am
not afraid of you" During the day the
outlaw remarked that he needed a new
holster, one of his revolvers being without
a holder. Young Goldfnch was instructed
to find the leather after which the outlaw
soon made o holster.
Monday evening Tracy told Goldfinch he
might CO. He was, however, cautioned on
pain of death not to tell what had happened
until Wednesday. 1t was this very dis
play of nerve, which heretofore had made
the outlaw safe, that this time caused his
ruin. Goldfnch. instead Of being sufficient
ly terrorized to keep peace, soon spread the
news and aroused a posse.

TRACY's CAREER OF CRIME.
Killed Two Men in 1897 and Seven
Since, Including Merrill, His opal"

Killed Two Men in 1897 and Seven
Harry Tracy escaped from the Oregon
state penitentiary at Salem on June 9. in
company with David Merrill, after killing
four men, Frank w. Terrell, C. r T Jones
and B. F. Tiffany, guards, and Frank In
graham, a convict, who tried to prevent his
flight. On June IS Tracy killed Merrill near
Napavine, Wash, shooting him from be-
hind, and leaving his body in the forest
where it was found on July Is On July g.
near Seattle, in a fight with a posse Tracy
shot and killed Charles Raymond, deputy
sheriff; +. +. BreSse, a policeman, and NOR
tally wounded Carl Nell Rawley, who died
on the following day, and wounded Carl
Anderson, newspaper reporter.
Tracy committed many feats OF daring
during his flight, i'm the course Of which he
eluded various posses when apparently sur
rounded and held up numerous farmers,
whom he forced to furnish food and cloth
ing and by threats of numbering their
families compelled them 10 cover up his
tracks. Perhaps his greatest show of dar-
ing was displayed on July 2 at South BAY
near Olympia, Wash, when he held up six
men and forced four including Captain
Clark. of a large gasoline launch. 10 en-

III vogue. BY trimming the sleeves above
the cuff the necessary seams can be con-
cealed while an entirely fashionable effect
is obtained.
The sleeve Is cut in two pieces, the full
upper which drops over the cuff and the
narrow under portion. When made of silk
wool and the like or OF any material that
will not require frequent laundering it
should be adjusted over the fitted lining
that serves to hold the puff in place but
washable fabrics are better and prettier
unlined as they give a softer and semi
transparent effect that is exceedingly at
tractfve. The lining is carefully shaped
and will be found an excellent foundation
for fancy sleeves of any sort.

BRYAN WILLING TO RUN
PRESIDENTIAL BEE BUZZING IN THE
NEBRAsKAN'S BONNET.
Says He VIII Not Refuse il His Party
Decides He Is the Proper Man
to Head Its Ticket.

MASON CITY, Ia, Aug. civilian ].
Bryan addressed an audience of over 1000
persons at the Clear lake assembly to-day.
He was asked If he had been correctly
quoted when it was reported he refused to
again be a candidate for President. He re-
piled that only a part of the interview was
used. He said he was not a candidate in
the light of seeking TO again lead the Dem
ocratic party, bat if the party should de-
eide he was the proper man TO head the
ticket, he could not honorably refuse. He
said he believed the money issue to still be
prominent, but that the Republican adj
minstration in the Philippines and the trust
problems were sufficient issues TO make
a campaign upon.

HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS.
BY MAY MANTON.

Nothing marks the date of a costume
so surely as the sleeves If they be correct
and up to date the entire gown will take
on an air of smartness otherwise unknown
The stylish model illustrated is admirable
in every way and is we'll adapted to re-
modelling as well to the making of new
waists. The fact that 1t is cut in two
pieces makes il possible to use the pattern
for cutting over sleeves of the smaller bis
hop type with only the addition of such
extra material as is usually to be found
among the leftover pieces. When extra
length is needed it can be carefully pieced
on and the fact entirely hidden from view
by a judicious use of trimming. Lace ap-
