The Ice SuDnlY.

The ice supply put up during the
winter performs a merciful mission
during the heated season. Not only
does it add to the comfort of living.
but prevents much waste that would
otherwise take place in the foods used
during the summer. Where one is To-
Gated near towns where large ice sup
plies are stored it may be cheaper to
purchase it at intervals during the
summer than put up supply in win
ter. For the ordinary farm home an
ice house 10x12 and 10 feet high Is
considered to be of sufficient size. A
dead air space around the walls will
prevent melting, while ventilation is
exceedingly important and should be
arranged for when houses are con-
structed. Drainage is also essential.

Bargain Day.

A very rich anecdote Is told Of
Thomas Bailey Aldrich, says the La
dies Home Journal. One day the dis
tinguished author happened to saunter
into an auction room while sale Of
rare editions, old manuscripts and au-
tographs was going on. The auction
eer, holding In his hands a bundle OF
letters, said: Ladies' and gentlemen,
have here two autographs which
were written by a man named Thomas
Bailey Aldrich. 1 shall now start them
for you at the price of two for five
cents" No bids were made and they
were sold for that sum.
Mr.. Aldrich, in speaking of the Incl
dent afterward to friend, said: ~
wouldn't have cared at oil If they had
gone for fi7e cents each, but two for
FIVE reminded me very forcibly of lit
tie apples"

Cooking Food for Stock,


Only a few years ago quite a num-
Der Of appliances for cooking food for
stock were advertised, but few are
offered at this time. and the assump-
ton is that there Is no demand for
them. In some sections cooking at
least portion of the food for the
stock Is still done, but the majority of
feeders claim that the results do not
warrant the expense. This Is proba-
bly, true where a number of animals
are kept, but where there are but few
animals 1t undoubtedly pays to at
least warm portion of the food given
to them during the winter. It Is
known that with poultry this cooking
of the food pays, for the majority of
successful poultrymen consider the
warm mash as an essential part of
their feeding plans. Undoubtedly, too.
If one has a large quantity of pota-
toes that are to be stock fed, it will
pay to cook them, provided the appara-
tus used is not too expensive. Not
withstanding the fact that the con-
census Of opinion seems to be against
the cooking of food for stock, it is a
question that must be determined nv
each feeder for himself by actual ex-
eriment.-Exchange.

Work to Do la Winter.

Any intelligent, progressive farmer
will find plenty to do during the win
ter. even though he may not have
many animals to care for. A moments
thought will bring to mind the things
that will be needed during the busy
davs of spring, and that many Of these
things can be prepared now. The care
full farmer has long ago put his farm
machinery in perfect repair-paintinS
the wooden portions, putting in bolts
where needed, oiling the necessary
parts, and, in short, is ready for busi-
ness, There is still time to do some
winter blowing during the open days,
if the ground is not too wet, and thus
enable one to work the ground sooner
in the spring. Then there is the gar
den to be looked after, the hotbeds to
be put in shape and the strawberry
plantation to be mulched, If the work
has not been already done. All this
is work that is necessary to success
with the next crops, and will keep the
farmer busy and enable him to keep
ahead of his work.

CHAPTER x.

Some time during the nlgnr, " nte
Hand was moved BY strange dreams.
Once he dreamed that Stung Serpent
came to him to kill him. Then the stout
Indian seized him. and in the struggle
that ensued, his captor turned into
dragon, and blew fire from his mouth
Thus the prisoner was set on fire, and as
the flames began to gather about the
dreamer he started up in alright. A
sharp cry escaped from his lips, for
glare Of flame was really flashing IN his
eyes, He would have started to his feet'
but q light hand held him down.
"Let the White Hand not fear" pro-
nounced a soft, sweet voice, in gentle
tones, "for Coqualla means him no
harm"
The youth gaZed up, and he saw an
Indian girl standing over him with
small torch in her hand. She was
beautiful creature for one so dusky in
hue, and the sweet smile that rested up
on her lips was peculiarly grateful to
the prisoner. AS soon as she saw that
she had quieted his fears, she removed
her hand and stepped back. And no"
White Hand had more opportunity to
survey her. She was young-not more
than sixteen-very slim and straight and
1.-the as the willow branch. Her fea-
lures were faultlessly regular, and her
eyes large, black and brilliant. The
youth had seen many of the Natchez
women, but never one like this before
and the thought quickly came to him
that she was one Of the royal blood, Tor
all others were bent and hardened Dy
work and drudgery.
"You do not fear me-" she said, gazing
upon him with look in which inquisl-
tiveness was about equally blended with
a warmer feeling.
MOO no. Why should l fear one

next after my father"

But the princess did not seem at all
anxious to know what the youth had
heard of her. She remained for some
moments in silence, and during that
time she seemed to be studying every
line of the prisoners face.
THE White Hand is not great man
in bulk" she at length said, thoughtful'
ly; but yet he must be brave man, for
my father says he slew six of the Chick

''Not alone. Coqualla. His friend was

"Save me?" uttered the youth, starting
now to his feet.
"-sh! Speak not too loud, for no ono

to himself.
AS soon as the heavy door was closed
upon him the prisoner gazed about. a
little light came to the place through the
small holes in the wall near the roof, and
by this means he could see somewhat OF
the nature Of his prison, for that this
was a prison, and built for such. he had
no doubt. The only floor was the earth,
and that must also serve for chair, bed
and table, for nothing save the bare
walls and the naked earth met his gaze.
He soon satisfied himself that he should
never escape from this place by force, ana
he soon threw his worn and weary frame
upon the ground. In the course of half
an hour the door was opened and Stuns

tray and an earthen drinking cup and

found the contents Of the tray to be boil-

FLOOD OF RAISED BILLS
POLICE BELIEVE CLEVER SWIM
Oilers ARE AT WORK.
Negroes Used as Convenient Confeder-
ates in Passing Bad Money-Fresh
Arrests Made.

The police of this city are puzzled to
know where the food of raised five and
ten-dollar bills that have been passed on
the merchants are coming from. Several
men have been arrested for passing bad
money but the police feel sure they are
only used to get the bills into circulation.
Merchants and business men are being
''duped' frequently by clever work in that
line. Several co,ored men have been ar
rested lately for passing bills of this nature
and charges of counterfeiting have been
placed against them, but ii is the opinion
of the police that there is an organized
gang in this city that is putting out the
raised bills. The work is certainly that of
a skilled workman. The negroes. it is said.
are merely used to put the money into cir
culation.
Early last night two negroes entered the
saloon conducted by Fred Myers, at 500
South Meridian street, and ordered two
glasses OF beer. When they had uuenched
their thirst they gave the bartender five
dollar bill and he gave them their change.
Shortly after they left the place the bar
tender looked at the bill and found that il
was a one-dollar bill and had been raised
to a five. The work was so well done that
only the closest inspection could detect IT
The police are looking for the men and
think they will have no trouble In getting
them.

Shortly after o'clock last night Mrs.

tone asked IL any one had reported lost

Francis went away from home several
hours before and had not returned. Mrs.
Feeney was deeply distressed and said the
entire neighborhood had been searching for
the child, who is general favorite among
those who know him. but he was not to be
found.
About half an hour later Mrs. Margaret
F. Jones. Of $40 North Senate avenue,
rushed into the police station and reported
that Margaret, her three-year-old daugh-
ter, had not been home since o'clock.
Mrs. Jones was so affected that she almost
broke down. She said she and her neigh
bors had searched for the child until they
were compelled to give up in despair

time Immediately notified the patrolmen

TO MAKE FOUR ARRESTS
VIGOROUS ACTION ON THE LOUIS
YEAGER MURDER.
Strong Evidence Against Suspects, All
of Whom Claim AIibi-No Danger
Of Mob Violence.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
KOKOMO, Ind, May 13.-As the result Of
a court of inquiry here to-day by Prose-
cutor Cooper. Sheriff Stanbro. Chief of Po-
lice Taylor and Coroner Harrison 1t was
decided to make four arrests In the MUIR
der case of Louis Yeager, who was found
dead in his buggy on Monday morning after
spending Sunday evening with his affianced,
Myrtle Finley, of Hemlock.
Tonight warrants were issued for Logan
Ingles and Willard and Charles Eads, all
Of Hemlock,. Early Sunday night three
men answering the description of the ac-
cused were in Kokomo drinking and act
Ing recklessly- They drove away with sew
eral bottles Of whisky. 1t is reported that
they drove to Sharpsville, overtaking Yea
ger. who had just left the Finley home.
and compelling him to accompany them
where there was more drinking and bois-
ferrous conduct. This. however. is denied.
Logan Ingles, one Of the accused men,
was himself murderously assaulted a short
time ago and suspected Yeager one of
the assailants. Ingles, like Yeager and
Francis Sutton, the latter killed two weeks
ago, was en- route home in his buggy after
calling on an Oakford girl when he was
waylaid and left for dead. 1t Is thought
that this furnished the motive for retalia-
tion of Ingles. Ingles is son of ex-Court
Reporter John Ingles and a brother of
Claude Ingles head clerk In the Kokomo
postoffice There is no evidence so far to
connect Ingles and the Eads boys with the
murder of Sutton, but his death Is attrib-
uted to the feud existing between the Oak
ford boys and the Hemlock boys. Yeager
and sutton lived near Oakford and their
sweethearts live at Hemlock.

of Coroner Harrison, who, with Sheriff
Sanbro feels sure of their ground. There
is much excitement, but no serious talk
of mob violence. The accused aver an alibi.
Prosecutor Cooper thinks the evidence suf-
ficiently strong to secure conviction. There
was no demonstration incidents at the
funeral of Yeager to-day.
Ingles and the two Eads boys were ar
rested late tonight. and all are in Jail.
They refused to talk about the case, under
instruction from their attorneys.
