WRONGED WIFE'SREVENGE
MRS. JULIA BEYERs FOUND HUSBAND
AT THEATER WITH ANOTHER.
Beyers PummelIed and Scratched by
Angry Spouse, While the Rival
slips Away in Crowd.

AZ the entrance of the Park Theater, as
the audience was crowding out of the lobby
al the close of the show, a frenzied woman
attacked her husband because he had taken
another woman to the theater.
Mrs. Julia Beyers. living at 937 Oliver ave-
nue., had believed for some time that her
husband has been associating with another
woman, unknown to herself. Last night
she learned that he had taken the woman in
question to the Park Theater and she sta
toned herself at the entrance of the house
and waited for the couple to come out.
In the crowds filing out upon the street
she espied Beyers and the woman. With a
shiek she leaped at the couple and furious
fight ensued in which the three struggled
desperately. Instinctively the crowd pressed
back. forming a circle around them, from
which the two could not escape the attacks
of the desperate woman. Several men at
tempted to sieze her. but they were power
less, as she fought like a maniac and badly
worsted her husband.
After tearing his clothes and scratching
his face until ii was a mass of blood, she
sprang upon the woman, pulling out her
hair by the handful and beating her bru-
tally. Over five hundred people were spec
tators of the fight and were greatly ex-
cited by the scene. Having spent her
frenzy, Mrs. Beyers seized her husband
by the hand and led him away, great deal
the worse from the struggle. The other
woman slipped away in the crowd.

AEROPLANE THAT FLIES
EMILE BERLINER SUCCESSFULLY
TESTS A NEW MACHINE.
Two Skyrockets Supply the Motive
Power-Arches Produce n Current
of Compressed Air.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-Emile Ber-
liner. an inventor. has successfully tested
a flying machine, the principle employed be-
ing that of the aeroplane. The experiments
so far have been conducted with a small
MACHINE, which is unlike the Langley in
vention. Two skyrockets supplied the mo-
tive power. In the test made the Berlincr
aeroplane lifted and maintained itself for
a considerable time in the air at a distance
Of eight feet from the ground. The pres
ent model is capable of lifting while flying
weight of more than a pound for each
square foot Of horizontal area and main
tanning speed of something less than
twenty miles an hour. The machine is
constructed of aluminium and tinplate. and
has weight of thirty-four pounds, ex-
Guiding ballast. Its main body is made up
of arches, open below and sloping down in
the rear to wide tail ends. In moving for
ward the arches produce a current of
compressed air, exerting at the same time
parachute action, thus serving to support
the structure. The actual lifting is done
by the tail pieces. which catch the aid
current.

Art of Cooking Beef.

Roast beef is an anomaly in this country,
said a chef last week to an audience Of
women. Only one hotel kitchen in this
city actually roasts it's ''roasts''-that is,
cooks them on revolving splits before an
open fire. In that kitchen there are spits
big and little for all sorts of birds and
other meats. This method has been abol-
ished from general use because flesh can
be cooked to better advantage where the
temperature is a. the bidding of the cook.
To have the first slice of the roast as
tender and juicy as the middle one, says
the chef, always remove the meat from the
oven one half hour or more before il is to
be served. cover it closely and let it
sweat" This allows the blood that has
been driven to the center of the piece to
return to the outside. Never pierce any
kind of roast with a fork in moving or

BURGLARS PLANNED WELL.
West Raymond-Street House Robbed
of Money and Valuables.

Burglars entered the residence of Mrs.
West, 515 West Raymond street, last night
and secured pocketbook containing about
$50 and several papers of value. Entry
to the house was made through side win

planned. 1t is the opinion of the police that
the burglary was committed by the same
men that robbed Mrs. Raymond, of 30S
Muskingum street, early in the evening,
and every patrolman on the police force
was notified to be the lookout for the
robbers. AT an early hour this morning
no arrests had been made.
