Dreams Of Conflict.

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-Several days
before General Joseph Wheeler died
and at the time when he was occasion
ally irrational, he sat up in bed one
evening and said to the nurse:
When does the firing begin?"
To humor him, the nurse replied:
Firing will begin at 9 o'clock, gen.
eral"
The leader in two wars leaned back
in his bed, apparently resting. At five
minutes to 9 o'clock. he reached over
for mis- watch, noticed the time and
took from the table near his bed 6
small bunch Of absorbent cotton. The
nurse. watching him, was puzzled by
his actions. Deliberately General
Wheeler plugged both of his ears with
cotton. Then he leaned back in his
bed again and went to sleep.

WILL GIVE BIG K. OF c. AFFAIR
CATHOLIC SECRET SOCIETY WILL
HOLD ANNUAL DRILL AND
BALL.

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-One Of the
biggest Roman Catholic affairs Of the
year in this city is the annual charity
ball and drill which the Knights Of
Columbus give at Madison Square
Garden every winter This years ball
promises to surpass all former events
of that kind in brilliancy and popular
success. The Catholics of this city
have manifested the greatest enthu-
siasm for the event and never has the
bidding for boxes been as brisk nor
were the prices realized as high as this
year. The number Of distinguished
guests who will be present at Madison
Square Garden this evening will be
unusually large President Roosevelt
and Governor Higgins and staff had
been invited, but were compelled to
decline, the president because his du-
ties in connection with the session of
congress did not permit him to leave
Washington at this time; Governor
Higgins, because he mad cancelled all
social engagements owing to the recent
sudden death Of Mrs. Higgins mother
However. the president will be repre-
scented by Rear Admiral Joseph B.
Coghlen, commander of the Brooklyn
navy yard and his staff, while Governor
Higgins will be represented by Secre-
tary Of State John F.. O'Brien.
Archbishop Farley, as head Of the
Roman Catholic church Of this city,
will be present and will be the review
ing officer of the Fourth Degree corps,
a uniformed body, which will give an
interesting drill during the evening. An
innovation this year will be the parti-
cipation Of the First Regiment of
knights of Columbus of Brooklyn. The
music for the drill will be furnished by
a band of $50 musicians under the
leadership Of Sir Knights James Baggs
and Thomas r. Ward.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE


SOAAAe
The best way to cook green vegeta
bles is to put them into plenty of fast
boiling water. The opposite, however
Is the rule for winter roots. They
should be put into cold water and
gradually allowed to come to a boil
Rutabaga turnips will lose their coarse
ranAness If cooked in this way.
Salt, which renders water hard,
should not be added to it until vegeta.
bles have begun to cook. Some green
vegetables. like spinach, are put into
sailed water to boil, but peas and
beans should be cooked In unsalted
water until they are just ready to be
taken OF. Carrots, beets, potatoes and
most vegetables are better for not be-
ing sailed until they are half done. Do
not add soda to green vegetables ex-
cept occasionally. It will improve the
quality Of some old peas and beans,
and a pinch Of 1t the size of a pea is
about the right amount for a quart of
water. Sometimes an old fashioned
cook will add the soda and then neu-
tralize it by adding the usual salt. In
such case the salt should be added
just as the vegetables are being taken
up or to the sauce or brown butter that
Is sometimes served with them.

RISBURG IN OCTOBER.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb 5.-Gov-

staff and a number of prominent state
officials of Pennsylvania arrived here
this forenoon to pay an official visit to
President Roosevelt and to invite him
to attend the laying of the corner
stone Of the new state house at Har-

for the ceremony has not yet been

the convenience Of the president,

visit Of the governor and staff had
been previously made by Senator Pen

WILL TRY MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP
AUTHORITIES OF BERLIN ARE
NOW CONSIDERING THE
IMPORTANT QUESTION:,

BERLIN, Feb. 5.-The municipal
authorities of Berlin have decided to
venture into the field Of municipal
ownership and in short time the re-
quired steps will be taken for the ac-
QUESTION Of the property, rights and
privileges of the Berlin Street Rail-
way company, which has practically
the monopoly Of the street railroads Of
Berlin and its suburbs. The plan has
been advocated for long time by
certain faction Of the Berlin city
council but not until last week did the
authorities reach any definite decision
AS the various suburban towns sur
rounding Berlin have their own NUM-
cipal boards and officials, it was ne
cessary to reach an agreement with
them before anything definite could be
done, as the street-car lines in most
cases connect the city proper with one
or more of the suburban towns Last
week a conference of the Berlin NUM-
cipal authorities with the municipal
officers Of the eight principal suburban
towns, including Charlottenburg, was
held, in which it was resolved to ac-
quire the property and rights of the
Berlin Street Railway company and to
operate the lines on the JOINT account
of the municipalities concerned in the
plan. The company has a capital of
$25, 900, 900. Bonds will be issued by

EXTEND SCOPE OF BAN ON PASSES

PRETATiON OF THE LAW.

There is well-defined rumor that
some member Of the state railroad
commission has advised railroad Of
ficials that the commission proposes to
absolutely prohibit free passes in this
state, except to railway employees, COW
cred by the exemption clause of the
law, is the report that comes from
Olympia. 1t is stated that at the pres
ent time passes are honored in this
state where the trip originates outside
the state and the trip thus becomes an
interstate one. Thus, it is claimed
passes are issued good from Portland
to Seattle and the pass is accepted and
honored for the ride in this state in
spite of the fact that the holder is not

roads, but the Washington anti-pass
law as embodied in the commission bill
is said to prohibit the use Of passes
within this state except by officers and
employees Of lines operating within

statement cannot be secured. Com
missioner Lawrence is at walla Walla

Only One Place in Center, Meb.
Where People Can Battle.
INSTALLATION OF TUB GREAT EVENT
Men Have Six Days in Week, But
There's Only Ono Ladies
Day" Provided.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa, Feb. 5.-Wom-
en- can use the bathtub but once a
week at Center, Neb., while men have
access to it six days out of seven. But
in order that this fact should not be
considered a reflection upon the per-
sonal attractiveness Of Center's fair
sex, be it understood that there is only
one bathtub in the community and
Thursday has been arbitrarily set
apart as ladies day."
Center, which is the county seat OF
Knox county, took a long stride near
to goodness a few days ago, when the
shining porcelain tub arrived by ex-
press from the seats of civilization
.. Saunders, who conducts the local
barbershep, imported the luxury, and
Immediately became the most dis
tinguished citizen in the place.
He installed it in his place of busi-
ness, which is dignified by the title of
Hotel Annex" chastely screened to
satisfy the proprieties and proclaimed
that all who wished to clean them
selves after the manner of city dwell
lers might do so for a modest stipend.
The entire male population moved
upon the annex" en- masse, to view
the famous tub as it stood in it's
cloister and there was more excite
ment that when the last circus came
to town. A favored few were per-
mitted to use it without charge in
order that correct impression of the
virtues of the tub might be spread
abroad in the land. Then bathing be-
came almost habit in Center and
vfrile splashing might be heard within
the annex" at any hour Of the day.
But when the wives Of the bathers
heard of these frequent applications 81
soap and water, indignation ran high
at all the meetings Of the Dorcas So
ciety Remonstrances were sent to
Mr.. Saunders, asking why no provi-
sion had been made for the ladies.
Saunders conferred with his friends
and then inserted the following an
nouncement in this weeks issue Of the
local newspaper:
I'VE are requested to inform the
ladies of Center that Thursday will De
ladies' day at the new bathroom in
the Hotel Annex. None but ladies'
will be allowed to battle on that day,
and they are invited to take advant-
age of the new tub. Every courtesy
will be shown to patrons"
Therefore, the women of Center,
Neb., battle once a week-at least,
whether they need it or not.

What Gasoline VIII Do.

Gasoline will accomplish a host Of
wonders in restoring soiled treasures to
their first glory. Many fabrics that re-
sist water bath and hot iron will is
sue from a gasoline bath as good as
new. One of the advantages of gaso-
line and naphtha is the fact that moth.
ing Is creased by a cleansing with It.
Creases already in a fabric are not re-
moved by bath in it either. Some per-
sons claim that the matted pile Of vel
vet is raised by immersion in gasoline.
The experiment is worth trying.

TEXAS STEERS STAMPEDE.
Excitement in Stoekyards as HER
Runs Through Streets.

CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-A herd of fifteen
Texas steers broke out of their pens
in the stockyards last night and caused
excitement in the neighborhood of
Ashland avenue and Forty-second
street. Hundreds of workers were re-
turning home when the steers ran
madly through the streets, knocking
several persons down. The animals
ran west through streets and alleys,
chased by several cowboys who were
reinforced later by a wagonload of po-
licemen armed with rifles. After n
chase of several hours, the police and
the cowboys returned exhausted with
out having found the steers.

WANTS THE LAW REPEALED

HOPES THAT IT WILL Be REPEALED

HOPES THAT IT WILL Be REPEALED

There seems to be an idea through
out some parts Of the state that the
enforcement of the mortgage law is
an order of the tax commission" said
State Tax Commissioner T. D. Rock
well, at Spokane. GAS a matter of
fact it is a part of the statute law of
this state and no part of the state is
more opposed to the law than the
state board of tax commissioners.
However. it is the law and this board
did not make the law and has no power
to repeal it, Knowing it's unjustness
and believing in it's thorough iniquity,
the commission concluded that the best
way to accomplish it's repeal without
unnecessary delay in the next legis-
lature was to enforce it.
"A legislature will convene imme-
diateIy after the assessment and just
before the tax becomes due, so If the
vice of the tax commission it will re-
peal this law at once.
The law has been enforced In some
counties in the state and totally ig-
rored in others and it is the desire of
the tax commission to obtain uniform
assessment if possible on ali classes
of property and in every county of the
state.
"A person who lives in Washington
and lends to another at a fair rate of
interest must pay taxes upon the
mortgage given to secure this loan
just the same as upon any other prop
erty he may nave, but foreign cor
poration or nonresident can loan
money within the state and not pay
any tax at all.''
