And the sunshine siistens lightly on the

Where the timid shadows shiyer on the

When the south wind wakes the cFocus

When the green Is softly giintins like the
whisper " Uniting
AND there's music In the rhythm OF the

FIRE BUG is AT WORK.
Incendiary CONGREGATIONS Start Up in
Fourth Ward in Appleton-Police
Spot Suspect.

Appleton, Wis, Aug. 29.-[special. /
Fires of an incendiary nature are again
breaking out in the Fourth ward Sat
5urday night a barn belonging to George
Foss was set on fire and was totally de-
Stroyed.
Chief MCCLELLAN believes he has suffi-
cient evidence to arrest the guilty party,
but owing to the barn being located in
Calumet county, just across the line, he
is unable TO act in the matter. The
previous Saturday night a haystack be-
longing to Charles Molter was burned.
During the past year eight fires have
taken place in the Fourth ward from be-
ing set, the largest being the barn of
the Appleton Mailing and Brewing COM
pany, causing a loss Of $4,000.
Last winter a half-witted person was
arrested charged with setting the fires
and while the evidence was not strong
enough to convict him. still no more fires
were set until the past week. The man
was seen at the last fire and it is be-
lieved by the neighbors that he is re-
sponsible. All the fires have been either
barns or haystacks, and have taken
place either Saturday or Sunday nights

KINGS DECREE IS
PRESENTED IN COURT.
Validity of Marriage of Mrs. Bassett of
La Crosse Is Questioned Because
of Rulers Dictum.

La Crosse, Wis, Aug. 26-tSpecial.I
The decree of the King of Norway,
made some years ago in divorce court.
may be the means of keeping three chill
dren of Mrs. T. Bassett, late Of this city,
from getting her estate. a first husband
back in Norway lays claim to the dead
woman,s estate on the ground that the
children are Legitimate on account of the
Kings decree.
She married Anton Johnson of Trondh-
Jem, Norway, years ago, but after a short
welded life they could not agree. Divorce
proceedings were commenced and an alb
solute separation was granted. The
King, however, decreed that neither par
ty should ever again be allowed to marry.
The wife came to this country and mar
ried Mr.. Bassett. By him she had three
children, who now survive her. The con-
tention of the first husband is that she
had no right to marry, and the children
have no standing in the courts. The
weight of opinion, however, is that the
Kings decree has no force outside his
province and the children will get the
estate.

NOTHING TO SHOW
MARRIAGE RELATION.
Judge Cleveland Uses Strong Terms in
Rendering Opinion in Bouck-Wad-
leigh Viii Controversy.

Oshkosh, Wis, Aug. 27.-In rendering
his decision yesterday, in the Wadleigh-
Bouck contest, among other things
Judge Cleveland says:
1T is needless to say that this has been
a very interesting question. l have been
much interested in reading the briefs and
authorities cited, and l am free to con-
TESS that my views regarding what con-
stitutes a marriage contract have been
considerably changed since this case was
commenced, and by reason of this exam
nation.
"Was such a contract entered into by
Mary Wadleigh and Gabriel Bouck? For
forty-three years both lived in the same
community. but she lived as Mary Wad-
leigh, and never claimed to be his wife
until after his death. In all business
deals she held herself out as an unmar-
ried woman, and he held himself out as
an unmarried men. Besides this their
whole lives were contradictory of mar
riage contract. In the testimony intro
duced there was nothing inconsistent to
the relations of man and mistress, and
much that was inconsistent to the rela-
tons of man and wife. Her home was
not his home, and his home was not her
home.
''They lived apart for forty-three years,
and there was nothing so far as the
public was concerned, or that the evil
dence shows that would show that they
entered into the marriage relation. The
conclusion is therefore that the proof falls
short of showing that a marriage con-
tract had been entered into"

and onions under water.
Before applying the stove polish add
to it a teaspoonful Of powdered alum.
Green bananas, stewed and served
with a cream sauce, make very palat-
able vegetable.
Old newspapers pinned over plants
will keep them safe from frost for
many nights and prolong their period
Of poisoning.
To clean nickel, scour with pulver-
lied borax, use hot water and very lit
tie soap; rinse in hot water and rub
dry with clean cloth.
If a lamp gets overturned water viii,
be Of no use in extinguishing the
flames. Earth, sand or -four thrown on
it will have the desired effect.
To remove tea stains from white
wooden material, cover the stained part
with gin, then rub, while still covered,
with a piece of the same material.
To dry clean gloves lay them fiat,
rub in mixture Of finely powdered
fuller's earth and alum. Brush it off
and sprinkle them with dry bran and
whiting. Dust well.
Save tea leaves, put them in colan-
der, pour water from the tap through

Fay's escape is still a mystery. The
story from Chicago that Fay's escape
was aided by officials here is laughed at.
Sheriff Appleby and the Jail employees

loonkeeper, planned the escape, taking
plans of the Jail and of Fay's cell, to help
the confederate in his work.
