HELD FOR MURDER.
Toledo M,sn Who Was Guest at House
Suspected of Brutal Murder OF
Woman at LOrain, D.

Lorain, O., May A. Rev. Walser Fer
dinand. of Toledo, was arrested Satur-
day on the charge of the murder OF
Miss Agatha Reichlin, and was taken
to the Jail at Elyria. Father Walser
was guest for the night at the house,
and his room adjoined that of Miss
Reicblin. The door between the rooms
could be locked only from his room.
During the night, according to the
story of Rev. Walser, he heard screams
from the room occupied by the girl,
and declared that he gained the hall
way just in time to see a man disap-
pearing through an open window.
Bloodhounds were brought here
from Fort Wayne and given the scent
of the murderer. The dogs circled
around the house several times, and
finally went to the room occupied by
Rev. Walser on the night of the murder.
They again took the trail and led the
officers directly to st. Joseph's hos
pital, where Rev. Walser slept Friday
night. He was found at the hospital
and placed under arrest, the officers
claiming there were many suspicious
circumstances against him, in addition
the bloodhounds following his trail.
Rev. WalSer showed no excitement
when placed under arrest, and de-
clared that he was innocent. The muir
dered young woman was handsome,
and had many friends and admirers in
this city.

LONG STRUGGLE ENDS.
ILLINOIS, House of Representatives
Passes Mueller Municipal
Ownership Bill.

Springfield, ILL.,, May 4.-With 90
votes in it's favor, the Mueller bill
was passed by the house and went
sailing over to the senate at 2:15
o'clock Friday. On the first dash out
it received 81 affirmative votes, and
three more were added by consent
later in the day. The bill will be
landed in the senate Monday night
or Tuesday morning. The better
opinion seems to be that the senate
will at once concur in the house
amendments and the measure will go
to the governor.
The Mueller BILL as passed by the
house, gives the right to every city
to own and operate street railways
within it's limits on three-fifths ref
erendum vote.
A joint resolution calling for sine
die adjournment of the legislature on
Thursday, May Z, was passed by the
house and sent to the senate.

SENSATIONAL AFFIDAVITS.
Filed by Attorneys for James Howard
in Support of Their Motion
for New Trial.

Frankfort,>Ky. May 4.-The attor-
neys for James Howard have filed
three sensational affidavits in support
of their motion giving their reasons
for asking for a fourth trial. The af-
fdavits are made by W. L. Grady, A.
j. Wofford and III. f. Johnson, and
charge that, prior to the trial, they
heard both Jurors Renshaw and Neal
say that they were convinced Howard
was guilty, and that if summoned and
accepted as jurors they would vote to
hang him.
The jurors in question when exam
ined for qualifications as jurors both
stated that they had neither formed
or expressed an opinion. The prosecu-
ton will later make answer to the mo-

HOUSEHOLD INFORMATION.
A Few Items and Suggestions Rel
alive to Matters of DOmes-
tic Utility.

When there is sickness in the house
the bathroom pipes require special at
tention. One of the best disinfectants
is carbolic acid, allowing four table
spoonfuls to a quart of cold water. Pour
this in the pipes and allow it to stand
20 minutes or so before flushing.
An artist housewife discovered
that palette-knife is a most useful
kitchen impleiAent, and keeps one In
the table drawer of that department,
as well as in her studio. To ice cake, to
slip in pans to which anything sticks,
it is invaluabl as well as for various
other services where a thin, pliable
knife is needed.
Pneumonia is now proved to be quite
as contagious as diphtheria, pulmonary
tuberculosis or influenza, and the same
precautions are demanded to prevent
its communication to others. AS the
cause Of the infection is micro-organ-
ism in the sputa of those suffering
from this malady, great care should be
taken to destroy by fire or disinfect-
ants everything with which the germs
have come in contact.
While every individual is supposed to
put his own bed clothes to air morn
ings, not every one knows the right
way of doing so. Some merely toss
them over the footboard. Others drag
them off in heap and tumble them
over chair, where they lie dragging
on the floor. AS every child, boy as
well as girl, should be taught the right
way of doing this daily task, here are
the directions as given at one of the
domestic training schools: Put two
chairs faces together. Fold the ,coun-
terpane evenly and lay across the tops
of the chairs, allowing the middle to
bend down to reach the seats. Fold
the blankets next AM, put little high
er, leaving space for the air to circu-
late between. Keep on in the same
way with the sheets, and, lastly, beat
up the pillows and place them where
they will get the full benefit of the
air. Take pains in arranging the bed
ding to keep head" and foot" sep
arate.
With the fruit season at hand, the
CduIlOH VI pIlS SlCldIlS III llS use is again
pertinent. One diet specialist says:
1.-THE poorest time to eat fruit is at
the conclusion of hearty dinner, at
which a variety of food has already
been consumed" This applies to raw
fruit; cooked fruit may be eaten at
any time, and much digestive disor-
der could be averted, he adds, if this
distinction were observed. Fruit is
wholesome, according to the same ati-
thority, only when it is in proper con-
dition, ripe and fresh. It's deserved
good reputation has been much i'm
paired by the influx in our markets of
half-ripe and stale fruit, which is about
the most unwholesome food that can be
eaten. In general, fruit is less whole
some when eaten out of its natural
season. Eat acid fruits in the morn
ing just before breakfast, taking with
them little bread and butter, if the
plain fruit is not acceptable

only a fair trade. Leading manufac-
turing lines are active, except for
some hesitancy at textile mills. In
iron and steel, footwear, furniture,
harness and clothing there is little idle
machinery. Structural work is Wig
orously prosecuted and supplies of
building material are not allowed to
accumulate. A special canvass of the
white pine situation by correspond
ents of this paper shows low stocks
and high prices, although the seasons
cut was large. Mercantile payments
are fairly prompt, yet there is less dis
position to anticipate payments for a
cash discount as frequently occurred
last year. Railway earnings for April
were 1872 per cent. larger than last
year and 27.6 per cent in excess of

New millinery is for the most part
of the lightest description, light as
to material, gay in effect, and, if pos
sible, more absurd as to shape and
treatment than ever. One anachron-

TRADE REVIEW.
Situation Somewhat Unsettled by
Weather Conditions and La
Dor Disturbances.

New York, May 4.-Bradsteet's
says: weather conditions and labor
disturbances, actual or threatened.
have been temporarily unsettling ele
ments in the trade and industrial stu
alton this week, but great basic ele-
ments, such as general business and
crop conditions, remain largely favor
able. Cold weather and snow in the
west have checked farm work, inter-
fered with retail distribution, and re-
tarded recorders. The exact opposite,
however, is, noted at the east, where
the weather has been springlike and
a much needed stimulus to retail dis
tribution has thus been given. Whole
sale trade is seas onably quiet, though
some sharp contrasts are shown in diff
ferent branches of the same trade
dull, with prices weakening, but steel
and finished product generally are
eagerly sought and very firm. Labor
disturbances, particularly in the build
ing trades, have been an unsettling
feature in the lumber trade this week,
but the volume of business in this
line shows no shrinkage. Lake navi-
cation is in full swing, and the lum-
Der movement is very heavy one.

missionaries from Germany has never

cree will therefore be issued.
