In Jail at Omaha.

L
occurred between Sheriff F. M.
Veatch and Deputy S. J. Shaugh-
messy on one side, and Harry
White, alias VIM. Griffin, on the
other in Keytesville about 10:30
O'Clock Monday morning, June
%, 1908.
While claiming to be Wm.
/ Griffin, Sheriff Veatch had reas-
ons to suspect that the stranger
was none other than Harry White
who left Keytesville % years ago
and has since led a checkered
criminal career. 1t was believed
that his visit to Keytesville was
for the express purpose of at
tempting to liberate his brother,
VIM. G.. White, who was at that
time in the county Jail awaiting
trial for the murder of Chas. G.
Coleman in Keytesville the night
of the 9th of last April.
"Griffin'' went to the jail and
had talk with White and made
an appointment to return the next
day at noon Sheriff Veatch,
however, did not like "Griffin s"
maneuvers and attempted to in
terview the stranger the next
morning when ssGriffin" COM
menced to draw his revolver, but
Mr.. Veatch succeeded in shoot
first, but which was not generally
known at that time. Sixteen
shots were exchanged between
the sheriff and deputy and Griffin
and it was thought that Griffin
was shot in the hip by Shaugh-
nessey, but no definite informa-
ton in that respect was ever OBJ
tanned. "Griffin" retreated, con-
tinuing to return the fire of the
officers and finally made his
escape through VIM. E. Hills
yard and then on north. A sher-
Iiff's posse was organized and
went in pursuit but failed to find
! the game wanted.
! 1t has since been learned posi-
lively that VIM. Griffin was Harry
White, a brother of VIM. G..
White who pleaded guilty at the
May, 1908, adjourned term of
circuit court, held July q, to the
murder of Chas. G.. Coleman and
lis now serving a sentence of 80
years in the penitentiary.
| Harry has been heard from in
st. Louis and other places since
his escapade in Keytesville Mon
| day, June %, but as he could
have only been prosecuted here
for carrying concealed weapons,
| Sheriff Veatch did not regard his
crime of sufficient Importance to
attempt to land him.
i Sunday afternoon Mr.. Veatch
i received q letter from j. J.. Dom
ahue, chief of police of Omaha,
I Neb., stating that Chas. P.
Griffin, was in Jail at that place,
but that he (the chief of police)
was informed that his (Griffn 50
right name was White, and that
he was wanted in Keytesville.
Mr.. Donahue also sent pho
tograph of Griffin and it tallies

June.

GOVERNMENT DEMANDS PAS.
TEURIZATlON,

The movement for the pasteurization
OF all milk and cream from which but-
ter. is made: has received a new i'm
pulse in the demand by the govern
-ment for such butter for use in the
navy. A Kansas creamery company
controlling many creameries and skim.
ming stations has been awarded a
contract to manufacture several hun.
dred thousand pounds, but it is speci-
fed that this butter must be from
:pasteurized milk or cream. This should
nave considerable influence in reduc-
ing the amount of sickness in the
navy. Disease germs live in butter as
well as in milk, and it is impossible to
estimate how many epidemics may
nave occurred with infected butter as
source. But there is another reason
Tor requiring pasteurization, and that
is that the percentage of spoiled but
GER may be reduced, and that the
keeping quality Of the good butter NAV
oe Increased. This must be a large
matter in years butter supply of the
navy. Some of the large creamery
companies that do not pasteurize ex-
press their discomfort at the REQUIRE
ment by the government and hint that
1t was, a dodge to throw the contract
IN certain direction. But few will
look at it in this light. If they cannot
keep up with the demand of the times
for good butter they have only. them
selves to blame.

Gray Tea Gowns.

AS regards tea gowns, there is
rather fancy for gray just now. Ger
tainly there is nothing prettier for
home wear than this Puritan color,
besides which it has the advantage of
aarmonizing we'll with practically ey-
cry other shade imaginable, says the
Illustrated London News. Any kind
OF crepe looks we'll in silver gray, and
it can be trimmed with a dash of
bright color to prevent it's looking
fade. A pretty model In crepe de
shine was accordion pleated through
out, finished of with a great turned
down collar and an Empire sash tied
above the waist line, with some tas-
sells of orange silk mingling with the
loops. Another gray gown was made
up in a soft woolen material worked
with spots of white silk. It was
shocked on the bust, and from thence
fell quite loosely to the feet. The
neck was cut in a small V-shape and
edged with a flchu Of white net, bor--
dered by a, deep fall of lace, the line
of juncture being concealed by very
narrow band of chinchilla. The
sleeve was a full bishop shape, drawn
in at the wrist by means of the
shocking, the cuff being formed of net
slightly folded, edged with band of
fur and flounce of lace falling we'll
over the hand. A rose-pink chou
placed on the bust gave a charming
finish to this fascinating garment.

ABOUT SEPARATING.

Unfavorable conditions for cream
separation are:
1. Speed below that which the ma
chine is calculated to run.
z. Feeding separator to it's capacity
Or over when speed is too low.
). Milk below a temperature of "a
degrees when being separated.
I. Making very heavy cream by ad-
iIstment
5. Vibrating, swaying, or unsteady
running of the bowl.
Reversing these conditions. of
course, will cause the most favorable
conditions for thorough separation.
every buttermaker should see that
his separator runs smoothly and with
regular speed, and that as near as pos
sible to the speed intended for that
particular machine, which is usually
stamped on the bowl. It is not wise
to run any separator much faster, ow.
ing to the danger of injuring the bear
'nss or bursting the bowl. AS soon
as separation is complete the separa.
'sor should be thoroughly washed, get
ting every particle out of the crevices,
and then have it thoroughly blown out
with live steam, so that all parts CON-
ang IN contact with milk or cream
will be perfectly sterile. The heat
absorbed by the bowl will then cause
all dampness to vaporize, thus leaving
all parts dry and free from danger
or rusting.-J. w. Newman, before
Ontario Dairymen's Convention.

At Middletown, N. T., q jury has
fixed 5000 as the price q middle-aged
man must pay for kissing middle
aged woman against her WILL ..s .
This IS too: *:little-and too much. ;.
A kiss obtained from a middle-aged
woman against her will is not worth q
cent. A kiss obtained from any wom-
an against her will, whatever her age
or previous condition of servitude, is
not worth cent. =.
A kiss obtained from any woman
who is personally attractive, with her
full consent and hearty participation,
is worth more than $2O0-much more
and kiss bestowed under these
conditions by a. high-bred, warm
blooded woman Of middle age is sim
ply beyond price.
True, there can be no way Of regu-
lating the market value Of kiss, but
IT there were, only miilionaires could
afford to kiss middle-aged women of
the proper pulchritude and pedigree,
and then not often.
Kisses stolen from o1 bestowed upon
girls, debutants or, other exceedingly
young women are thrown away. It is
shameful waste, of raw material. 1t
is only the ladies who have arrived at
an age when they stop counting who
are fully equipped and qualified to
sign, seal and deliver kiss that will
burn hole through sandpaper. And
these are the only kisses worth wor-
ry1ng about or striving after.
Wasn't Cleopatra forty when she did
all the damage? Do you for one in
stant suppose that Sappho was
bread-and butter miss?
The man who buys kiss is
chump; the man who steals one from
unwilling lips ought to be locked up in
foolish house; the man who steps up
like winner and sips it from the
ripe, red lips Of maturity is gentle
man and a hero, always in demand.-

Beautifyinu the Home,

The keynote of the interior of the
house beautiful forms it's character in
the artistic arrangement of the drap-
cries. The arrangement should give
the form of an idea. This is as i'm
portant as it is to produce a harmoni-
GUS color scheme, which makes the
colors blend in tone like chords in
music. One curved line ought to be
in harmony with another.
The illustration shown presents a
scheme to make a high door look
lower and yet maintain it's stately ap-
