Value of Fresh Air.

Sleeping in the open air has passed
the life limit of a fad and assumed
the proportions of habit. 1t is, more
over, a growing habit. the motto of
which is with nothing between you
and the sky" Only in summer is it
possible to push this habit to the ex-
IRENE, of course, and even then so
meager are the sky accommodations
of the average home relatively few
can enjoy the luxury indicated in the
motto.
The number of persons who take to
tents and repose in hammocks swung
in the open air in the summer, how
ever. increases each year. This is par
ticularly true of young children. hun
dreds of whom during the past sum-
mer were emancipated from stuffy
nurseries and given their maps on piaz-
zas and balconies or upon the hand
breadth of grass plot dignified by the
name of ''dooryard" in city homes.
Such children in their plump beauty
and infantile good nature are the best
possible witnesses of the efficacy Of
the "open air sleeping cure" if cure it
may be called, since. more properly
speaking, it is a preventive instead

BATH HOUSE SENSATION
Murder of a Wealthy st. Louisian Brings
Startling Facts to Light.


St. Louis, Jan PA. Dean Cooper,
prominent in society and business
here, and WEALTHY, was found MUIR

he owned, but it was not managed in
his name. His corpse was found in
the cooling room of the Turkish bath

gave the first news of the murder, and
was arrested. He says that two col
ored women were with Cooper pre-
vious to his murder.
Developments in connection with the
murder as the day progressed were
sensational in the extreme. StrOther
is buying a nome, and he says that
Cooper, whom he had known and
served for long time, had promised
to save his home for him. He also
claims that Cooper had promised him
that in the event of the sale OF the
bath house he (Strother) should be tax
en- care of, either by being retained i'll
his position or by being given another.
Questioned as to why Cooper should
thus make provision for him the ne
gro told a startling and sensational
story of the alleged true character of
the place of which he had been the
trusted custodian, and the story was I'M
some degree corrobOrated by state
ment from the police that they had
been making secret Investigations and
were going to raid and close up the
place.
Later-Strother has confessed to the
murder of Millionaire Cooper.

A GLIMPSE of Tennyson.

Apprehension of being mobbed by the
"profane vulgar" amounted, as is well
known. almost to mOnOmania with the
poet Tennyson. Many good stories are
told in illustration of this weakness OF
his. One of the best of them will per-
haps bear repetition.
Lord Tennyson was taking a country
walk with a friend. when fellow
creature was espied in the distance.
1--WE must turn back" said the poet.
''That fellow means to waylay u.s."
His companion persuaded him. how
ever. to continue on their path. They
caught up to the enemy and passed
him. He took no notice of them what
ever. What an extraordinary thing"'
cried the irate poet. The fellow seems

Chicago, Jan. 28.-Dr. H. J. Ziegler,
a young adventurer, formerly of Ian
caster, Pa, shot his wife-a Chicago
woman-in room at the Wellington
hotel, then sent a bullet through his
own brain and died instantly. Mrs.
Ziegler was removed to the Samari-
tan hospital, where she died a few
hours later. Behind the crime is q
story OF marriage against parental
protests, clandestine meetings and cor
respondence, the existence of former
wife, Miss Harriet Baker, in Lancas-
ter, Pa, and haunting fear of seri-
Gus consequences. These combined
provide the explanation of the tragedy.

health and in a good financial condi-
ton. She could assign no reason for

New York, Jan. 2S-The reserve

Effect of the Great Explosion.
When the dynamite went off it tore
h great gorge in the street and sent
a mass of earth, splintered timber and
twisted iron high into the air. Much
of it went battering against the front
of the Murray Hill hotel, and although
the walls and main structure or that
building stood the shock nearly every
room in the front of the house was
wrecked. The Manhattan Eye and
Ear hospital on the east side of the
avenue Jared nearly as badly, and had
to be abandoned by the management.
The Grand Union hotel lost all it's
ind nd Crla TfJ
practically every front window in the
Grand Central station was shattered.
The great clocks on it's front towes
were blown fromtheir cases. Thousands
of windows, some them seven blocks
from the tunnel shaft, fell i'll frag-
ments. 1t was the shower Of broken
glass and falling debris that injured
the greatest number.
How Robertson Was Killed
J. ROderick Robertson, of Nelson.
3. c.. was killed by debris hurled
with the force of artillery into his
room at the Murray Hill hotel. He
was general manager in Canada for
the British Columbia Gold Fields COM
pany, limited, and a prominent citi-
zen in the community where he lived.
He was a ScOtchman and left a wild
Ow and four children. He was said to
have been quite wealthy. A peculiar
fact about his death was that he
asked for the room in which he was
killed, while another guest of the
house had only short time before re-
fused to occupy the room.
Looks Like Million Damages.
The damage may exceed $1,OOO,OOO
The first estimate on the Murray Hill
hotel placed the loss at 100000, but
later the hotel was abandoned as I'M
safe. If the building is condemned
the loss on it alone will approach ST.
100000. The damage to the Grand
Union hotel was estimated at $4,000,
and that to the Manhattan hospital at
$50, 900. The loss at the Grand Cen
trail station was entirely in glass, as
was that of the 100 or more other
buildings affected by the explosion. No
estimate was made of the losses sus-
tanned by the Rapid Transit contrac-
tors. The cause of the explosion has
not been determined, but three men
are under arrest.

The advance in the price of milk
caused by the increase in cost of food
must be paid by the consumers, and
yet, says American Cultivator, it may
not affect them as much as it would
have done if there had been a similar
advance in grain prices fifteen or TWEEN
ty years ago or more. The rigid in
spection of the milk supply compels the
milk to be of a fixed standard, and
neither farmer, contractor nor retail
dealers can safely add much water to
it to reduce the cost per gallon without
danger of detection. The old joke
about ''the cow with the wooden tall
making up the deficiency when the 9th
ers did not produce full supply has
gone out of date. nor can Il farmer cut
down his grain feed to his COWS safely,
for ''poor hay and no grain" will not
keep his milk up to the standard. We
sold milk for several years, and we
found it profitable to feed grain liber-
ally, even when the price was high, as
it kept our customers, and when other
dealers could not supply theirs we re-
ceived new ones, and if a short supply
made it seem proper to raise our price
a little we could always get the in
crease. We have even bought more
COWS at such times from those who
thought there was no profit in keeping
them when the feed cost so much. In
selling milk or making butter we found
it most profitable to give about as
much grain as the cow could eat and
digest without regard to it's cost.
