WASHING MADE EASY.

One Way to Get Your Clothes Clean
without Rubbing Them.
1t II possible, 1t IL claimed, to wash
clothes. and to wash them well at that,
without rubbing, no matter how soiled
the garments may be. This IL the
method as described by one who has
tested It:
Take half a bottle of household am.
monia and put 20 1t an equal part Of
spirits Of turpentine. 70 "a medium
sized boiler Of clothes you would want
two or three cook spoons Of this.
My method Of washing, with scarce
" any labor, 10 as follows: Put the
clothes to soak overnight or not, Just
as you wish. I do not. On the wash
Ing morning take the clothes just a.
they are IL you have not soaked them
previously and lay them in your boiler.
Cover with cold water and add half a
bar Of soap shaved .nne, three cook
spoons Of the ammonia and turpentine
preparation. according to the size Of
the boiler. Let them come to q boil
and boil for ten or possibly fifteen
minutes, then take up and rinse thor.
oughly and blue az usual. You will
lind that no rubbing IL necessary.
Even q very dirty binding will need
scarcely rub. I never use wash
board now. A few rubs between the
hands will settle any extra soiled
spots. The terrors Of wash day will
have departed. The clothes will wash
themselves while you are at breakfast.

=A~G0OD SHOW.

If the crowd that attended the Filler Rip Van Wrinkle show Saturday evening expecting to sit through the ordinary per- formance that one meets they were agreeably surprised. The play itself was staged in a very creditable way, both in acting and scenic effects. The orches- tra was a first-class one and ren- dered pleasing numbers during the play, besides showing skill in the accompaniments of the splendid speciality numbers be- tween the acts. The whole show in fact given by Eiler's Rip Van Wrinkle company was one well worth seeing and hearing and was conducted in a clean, gen. tlemanly way by the manager  and his assistants. Minot, N. D., Daily Optic.
 Manager Doherty has secured the above company of twenty five people for Friday, March 31st, presenting the play made famous by Joseph Jefferson, Rip Van Winkle," with all spe- cial scenery, six speciality artists, superb band and orchestra. Prices 75, 50 and 25, proceeds to be donated by Manager Doherty as benefit to the opera house attaches. Watch out for free band concert and unicycle eXhi- bition at noon.

 Friday while Mrs. Hall was boiling a large kettle of I've soap in the yard the boy climbed on a gate a few feet away andzbegan swinging. A minute later, while she was in another part of the yard, the gate broke and the boy was precipitated into the boiling cauldron.
 His mother rescued him as soon as possible, burning herself badly in so doing. He was brought here, arriving last night, cooked, the flesh almost dropping from his body and limbs, but the phy sicians could do nothing to save him.

COCAINE SELLING
 SUBJECT OF CHARGE
Wherein Judge Grace Urges Jury to Investigate Illegal Sale of
 Dope at Pine Bluff.

Pine Bluff, March 26. Circuit Judge A. B. Grace called the grand jury into the court room yesterday morning and gave to the jury a special charge, order ing them to investigate the ille- gal sale of narcotics and cocaine, which is alleged to have been carried on in Pine Bluff for some time.
 Judge Grace said it had been stated to him that negroes were using cocaine in great numbers. and that they could buy it in any quantity at several of the drug stores here. He wanted the grand jury to investigate these charges and find if they were true. The law prohibited such sales unless the drug was pur- chased in limited quantities un- der the prescription of reputa- ble physician.
 The judge stated that it had come to his knowledge that the drug could not only be bought here in any quantity, but that it could be purchased even in TO- cent packages, already prepared and ready for use.
 A few days ago the police ar rested a white man who gave his name as Charles Matoon and his residence as Milwaukee, Wis.,, who was taken with a severe at- tack of "the jimmies'' on one of the principal streets of the city. This man, when taken to police headquarters, came very near dying from delirium tremens, brought on from an overdose of cocaine. He stated that he had purchased all of the drug he wanted in Pine Bluff. The Chief of Police stated the case to the Prosecuting Attorney, and an in- vestigation has been started and the arrest of several parties will probably follow. The police say they arrest any number of ne- groes who are addicted to the cocaine habit.

GREAT THEBES BRIDGE
 NEARING COMPLETION.
Will Divide Business of St. Louis And Memphis Gateways- Several Roads Furnished
 The Funds.

Engineer Anglers, who is in charge of the construction of the great bridge across the Father of Waters at Thebes, Ill.,, has an- A .nounced that the cantilever will be laced the latter part of the comMg week, and that by April 15th( bridge will have been cornp1eted.
 The Thebes bridge is one of the largest across the Mississip- pi river, and wheR completed will revolutionize ailroad traffic in this section of the country. A great deal of time has been con- stunned in constructing the bridge, and.it has cost mint of money. Several railroad companies will use the structure jointly, and the great bulk of traffic from the west which has gone east by way of the Memphis gateway or across the river at St. Louis, vii. now be divided between the three places.
 At present the Cotton Belt maintains a ferry across the riv- CT at this point, entire trains be- ing transferred by boat. During the past winter reports told of the ice holding a train in mid- stream for several hours. These and many other objections will be overcome by the completion of the new bridge.
 It is said that the eastern ap- proach to the structure is the most natural in the United States. The eastern end of the bridge is built iqto the cliffs on the Illinois side of sthe great river, and the track strikes it without the aid of fills or trestles. On the west side the case is different. Miles of approach are necessary to bring the grade up to the stand ard, about one per cent on com pensated curves.
