Glove Lore

WV should be looked over lest
broken stitches should be there
and if the thread pulls away from the
kid, leaving a white spot, the gloves
viii not wear well.
When the glove stretches easily and
seems elastic, the kid is of good quail
it'll, but if it is stiff and unyielding 1t will
neither fit nor will it wear well.
Always get a glove large enough. II
they are so narrow as to require
stretching they will never look as we'll
as if the hand was the first sretcher.
When removing gloves never begin
at the tips of the fingers to pull them
off. Turn back the wrist and draw
them off wrong side out.
Before putting them away turn them
right side out and smooth out length
wise. Never roll them up tightly, one
inside Of the other, as whatever moist
ure may have gathered from the hands
dries in this way and makes the kid
stiff and hard. strips of canton fam
mel are good to lay away between
gloves.
A great deal depends upon how the
gloves are put on the first time. The
hands should be dry and cool; II they
are at all moist. they should be well
powdered First. work on the fingers
keeping the thumb outside the glove.
When the thumb is put i'm, place the
elbow on the knee and work the glove
down smoothly. Button the second but
ton first and so on to the top, leaving
the first button till the last. This may
seem a little thing, but it makes con-
siderable difference in the appearance
and fit of the glove. The greatest
strain is on the first button, and when
this is partially relieved by the button
ing of the buttons the drawing Of the
seams. tearing of kid or enlarging OF
buttonholes is prevented.

ROBBERS LOOT BANK SAFE.
Posse of Citizens Exchange Many
Shots With Thugs.

McAlister, |. T., Dec. ga gang of
five bank robbers looted the bank in
Kiowa, a small town IL miles north of
here at 3 o'clock a. m. and escaped
after several hundred shots had been
exchanged between the robbers and a
posse of so citizens of Kiowa. The
robbers dynamited the safe and Sc
cured $4,000 in cash, some of which
is believed to have been mutilated
by the explosion The bank building
was partially wrecked, the damage be-
in about $1,000.
An entrance to the bank was gained
by the use of crowbars through a rear
the work of blowing the safe, three
stayed outside as guards. The first
explosion was a failure. making a loud
report, but doing little damage. The
citizens heard the noise. and arming
themselves with revolvers and shot
guns, hurried to the bank. At the
command of leader of the posse, a
volley was fired at the robbers, who
were visible through the shutters. The
fire was returned by the guards Sc
creted on the outside While the two
men on the inside worked the three
men on the outside kept up steady
fire with the posse of citizens.
1t took three explosions to open the
safe. After the last explosion the bur
glars gathered up their tools and, leav-
ing through the front of the bank, got
away in the dark. The posse followed
the gang for a distance, but lost the
trail. Some of the citizens believed
one robber Was injured. Not one of
the citizens was struck. The latter
we're protected from the robbers fire
by stockpens in the rear of the bank
building.
A posse of United States marshals
is in pursuit, with little chance OF I'M
mediate results, as the men had sew
eral hours start.

cHILDREN's DAY AT WHITE
HOUSE.
Five Hundred Enjoy a Good Time at
Expense of RooseveIts.

Expense of Roosevelts.
Washington, Dec 27.--Five hundred
children, youthful sons and daughters
of members of the cabinet, senators,
representatives, army and navy Off
GERS, members of the diplomatic corps,
assistant secretaries OF departments
and Washington newspaper cores
pondents, were the guests between 4
and $50 O'Clock this afternoon of Mrs.
Roosevelt at the White House. The
reception began at o'clock, Mrs.
Roosevelt being assisted by ladies of
the cabinet circle and Mrs. Loeb, Mrs.
Cowles and Miss Hagner.
The White House had been decor
ated beautifully for this Christmas
party. Great palms and Christmas
green adorned the reception hall and
parlors, the green being enlivened
here and there with splashes of the
flaming red of poinsetta blossoms and
American Beauty roses. The scene
was rendered brilliant by hundreds
of electric lights
The children were formed in line
on the terrace. Thence they marched
up the main staircase and across the
reception hall to the entrance of the
green room, where they were received
by their hostess quite as if they were
grownups. Each child was introduced
to Mrs. Roosevelt by Major Charles
McCawley of the marine corps, and
Inv hnr- civ oil
Each was then presented with a pro-
gram and souvenir of the party in
the form of badge of silver, bearing
Mrs. ROosevelt's compliments and good
wishes of the season. The little guests
were conducted through the green
room to the east room by officers of
the army, navy and marine corps in
full uniform, and there seated.
The entertainment begun with mu-
steal program rendered by Roney's
Boys Concert company of Chicago.
This part of the program consumed
nearly an hour, the children being en-
thusiastic in their manifestation of
commentator.
Just before the first number on the
musical program was rendered, Pres.
ident Roosevelt entered the room, tax.
ing an incOnspicuous seat near the
green room entrance. He entered thor
oughly into the spirit of the occasion
and enjoyed every minute of the enter
tainment. The idea of the party, how.
ever, was wholly that of Mrs. Roose-
welt, and she worked out all of the
details. Scores Of the children were
afforded an opportunity to greet the
president and to wish him a Happy
New Year"
After the refreshments had beer
served the young people returned tC
the east room. There the older among
them danced to the music of the
Marine band, while the younger ones
played games in the parlor.
The attention shown the children by
Mrs Roosevelt and her assistants and
by the numerous attendants were SO
delicate and graceful that the joy OF
not single one was marred, and all
left the White House praising their
thoughtful and considerate hostess.

CAR AND LOCOMOTIVE BUILDING
over 10000 Cars Built in 1eo3-over
5000 Engines.

The Railroad Gazette gives the fol-
lowing statistics of car and locomotive
building during the last year:
Official returns from practically all
the car building plants in the country
show that 1884, 08 cars have been built
during the year 1903. OF this total
figure approximately 152,801 are
freight cars and 2007 passenger
coaches; 153, 195 for domestic and 1913
for export. Last year the total num-
Der of cars built was 164.547.
During the year 5152 locomotives
were built at the various works in
the country as against 1910 last year.
The number includes 80 electric loco
motives. The increase over 1902 is
the largest of any one year, and posi-
bly, is due to the fact that the loco
motive works of the country had such
a volume of orders placed during 1902
that they were unable to make imme-
date deliveries, and many of the or
ders were held over till 1903. At an
average cost of the locomotives of
$4,000, the total amount spent by
the railroads for motive power would
be approximately $62,O0O,000. This
figure does not include the Iocomo-
tiyes which were built yearly by the
railroad companies at their own shops.
