Up-tO- date Beds and Beddlnn.

The selection of beds and the
detail of their equipment, says
The Delineator for September, is
one of the most important items of
modern house furnishing. The
provision for comfort in sleeping
rooms would perhaps receive more
attention if one realized that fully
one-third of a lifetime is spent
there, In the course of three-score
years fully twenty, even with only
moderate sleeping, are passed in
bed. White iron bedsteads are so
generally used now that they may
be found even in the tenement
districts, where their neat, durable
and simple construction means
even more than in the homes of
more pretension and wealth.
While the adornment of the bed is
Of moment, the foundations of
comfort depend on the choice of
mattresses ard springs. Here the
quality should be Of the best that
can be afforded. A first expense
in good materials is likely to be
the last.

Quite Warm.

a Missouri editor speaks of the
weather in that country as follows:
at has been SO hot and dry
down here in Missouri that the
wagons go around with their tongues
out and ice has to be soaked all
night in water to make lemonade.
The cattle kick up so much dust in
the beds of the creeks that the
water melons on the bottoms look
like big chunks of dirt. A spark
from an engine set fire to a
farmers pond and half carload of
bulltrogs were burned before the
flames could be extinguished, and
the ground was so hard and dry
that the crawfish holes in the low
places were pulled up and sold for
gas pipes; even the horns were
melted off the cattle. Oh! it's
simply hot"

IN THE RYNO TRIAL.
New Developments introduced by a
Wichita Witness.


Mcpherson, Kas., Dec 20.-In the trial
of DR.. Ryno charged with shooting Miss
Maud Holmes, the counsel for the de-
fendant, at the conclusion of the testi-
mony of Mrs. Ryno introduced as the
next witness c. A. Ryno of Wichita,
employed as manager of the Western
Supply Manufacturing company. Mr..
Ryno testified that he was a resident of
Wichita. and registered at the Baltimore
hotel, paying his board there for a
week. He identified the signature in the
hotel register and filed with the court a
duplicate. He testified that he was not
related to DR.. Ryno in any way and in
this trial was the first he had ever
heard of him.
The production of this witness weak
ened the prosecutions testimony and
theory that Dr. Ryno had registered at
Wichita and while there had written the
letter to Maud Holmes in the name of
George r. Clark Following this testi-
mony the defense offered each member
of the Ryno family and all testified as
to the duties and work of the family
July and 5. Their evidence showed
that Mr. Ryno was i'll and remained in
bed with the exception of three or four
hours July 5. The footprints alleged to
have been made by DR.. Ryno running
from the Holmes residence to the Ryno
home were testified to by Lou Wood as
having been made by his wife who was
there on a. visit.
The evening was consumed by the de-
fense offering a mass of testimony dis
proving the states contentious. After
offering of testimony Friday on several
points disputed the defense rested its
stand and the counsel for the state de-
cided not to offer any testimony in re-
buttal The court took a recess to pre-
pare the instructions for the jury.

DREAMS CAME TRUE.
Three Times in His Sleep a
Denver Man Was Called.

Denver, Dec. 2O.-Joseph Ebbesmeier's
dream, which he interpreted to predict
his death, came true this morning when
the young man was accidentally electro
cuted in the basement of Appel's restau-
rant. Attempting to turn off an incan-
descent light. Ebbesmeier received the
shock that killed him instantly, and it
was several hours later when the porter
found the young man cold in death.
Clasped in his hand was the electric
light bulb, and burned palm showed
how the deadly current had done it's
work.
L have dreamed three times that my
dead parents called me to them in
heaven said Ebbesmeier yesterday to
his friend, William Daley, and be-
lieve my time has come"
You're crazy" Daley replied, there
is nothing in Dreams
Maybe not" said Ebbesmeier, sadly
but I feel strange about this just the
same"
Six hours later he was dead.
