Milton Anderson, of Denver, /
Col, brother of Steve Anderson,
arrived in the city about week !
ago, not knowing that his brother
was ill. His presence was a
great consolation to his sister
and other relatives during the
illness of the young man.
The shower this morning was
very welcome, as it was sufficient
to lay the dust and cool the at
mosphere for a short time. Such
weather as we have had during
the last few days, would require
the constant use of at leaat two
street sprinklers to keep down
the dust.
After the awful flood at Gall
weston, a few years ago, a woman
was found engaged in the infa-
nous work of cutting off the
fingers of dead persons and Sc
curing rings from their fingers.
She was given the name of "Scis-
sors" from the implement she
used in the hellish work. That
woman is said to be in Oklahoma
City today.-Oklahoman.
Rev. r. l.. Sheaff left today

ministerial engagement with the
Congregational Church. He
came from Vermont last Febru-
ary and has proven himself a
{ most earnest, faithful and able
{ minister of the Gospel and one
, that proved helper in every
good cause in our city. He made
many friends here who will bid
him God-speed in his future
work. The other pastors of the
, city greatly regret his departure.
News has been received here
} of the death of Mrs. Kate Wullsch-
3 leger at Marysville KS. Mr.. and
Mrs. Wullschleger were former
residents of Oklahoma, living 8

A Toy EIsetroseope.

Some very pretty experiments may
be made with the simple apparatus
herein described. An ingenious boy
can make all the necessary prepara-
tions and without expense.
Get a piece of wire about six inches
in length and bend two inches Of 1t
down at right angles. Then bend the
other end, also at right angles. but in
a direction opposite to the first
Place the upper horizontal branch
OF the wire on the rim of an ordinary
glass tumbler. and let it hang there
SO that the vertical part of the wire
shall not touch the inside of the glass.
Over the lower branch of the wire
hand piece of tin foil. and then place
on top of the glass an ordinary tin
plate.
Now what you have to do is to elec-
trify the tin foil, and this you can do
by rubbing a glass rod. or stick of
sealing wax, with a woolen cloth and
holding it close to the tin plate, when
the two ends of the tin foil will fly
apart suddenly. This shows that you
have electrified the foil by means of
the electricity awakened in the glass
rod or sealing wax by rubbing It.

how he had obtained them. replied
that he had obtained them by fishing.

an art SO useful. when the fox in.
