HOW A WOMAN FOUGHT A TRUST.

Kate Kehoe defeated a trust.
The recital of it of the dramatic features at
hearing of the interstate commission at Omaha
When her husband died he left Mrs Kehoe ''shove

cided to continue the business of grain buying.
Perhaps If she had known what ahead Of her she
would have given over the intention.

business pited against woman's wit and resource
But she kept

ended the struggle of the average man. But Mrs Kehoe
bought grain from the wagon and loaded it direct into the
Gar.
In graphic words she told the commission of her diff
Gcuty in geeting while her competitors secured all
They needed.
But it was prices that her greatest fight was
made The trust elevators raised prices in her town and
tried to drive her out She sought markets and made
Ehe trust lose lot of money.
For ten years this plucky woman fought the railroad
company and the grain trust.
About four years ago she built two elevators and the
rarOads ceased their her. But the prosecutions
0f the trust managers became severe Finally find

PORTLAND, Ore, Nov. 8-The
sphynx-like silence of young and
pretty widow is complicating one
of the most battling murder mys-
teries which the Oregon authori-
ties have ever undertaken to un-
ravel. From conflicting statements
forced from this woman in the
'sweatbox," it is known that she
is in possession of information
which could clear up the mystery
of two crimes-a $4,000 bank rob-
berry, and the murder of her hus-
band, yet neither cajoling nor
threats can wiring from her one
word.

Of whom, it is now believed, was
Carey M. Snyder.
Snyder's inseperab1e companions
at that time were Jack Brashier,
his brother-in-law, and George
Perry, a former Kansas City chum
Snyder disappeared the night OF
the murder and, despite the search
that followed, no trace of him alive
or dead was found. until three
weeks ago. A young hunter, fol-
lowing a wounded pheasant
through the underbrush few
miles from Hillsboro, stumbled
upon the CHASTITY remains of a muir
dered man, afterwards identified
as that of Snyder.
The finding of Snyder's bones
revived the matter of the Forrest
Grove bank robbery and started
an official investigation of renewed
vigor. Snyder's widow, who had
gone to Kansas City, was summon
ed to Oregon and confirmed the
identifi cation Of the remains. In
Kansas City she had been living
in the house of her millionaire
father-in-law, and she Is now es'
consced in palatial suite at the
Hotel Portland. But despite the
pretty widows luxurious existence
here, she is really a prisoner with
in the state, as she has been in
formed that should she attempt to
leave Oregon, she will be arrested.
The theory of the authorities is
that Snyder and two accomplices
robbed the bank, that the swag
was carried away by the two &C

went to meet his partners to secure
his share of the plumber, they muir
dered him to avoid paying his one

FOR SENSITIVE SKINS.
How to Treat Them When Inaamed
by the sun.


In warm weather many of those who
usually wear gloves discard them and
the skin OF the hands is exposed TO the
warm rays of the summer sun, says
the New York American. The white
ness of the skin and its delicate thin
ness allow the chemical rays to pene-
trate into the skin and it is apt. if the
exposure Is prolonged, TO produce in
flammation.
The most usual occurrence is known
as ''sunbmning." and coASists in he

layer of the skin being thrown OFF.

Meath Provided nothing else is pres
ent capable of keeping up the infam-
nation this ends the matter and grad
ually the skin assumes its usual ap-
pearance. IL, however, certain bac-
terra are present in the sk:n the proc
ess thus begun may continue and
spread around the part primarily af-
fected
Not only so, but 1t may occur even
although the primary exposure is very
trifing In degree and short in duration
The light seems In these cases to
weaken the resistance of the skin and
the bacteria do the rest.
A patch inhamed in this way will
not recover spontaneously. In the
early stages sometimes protection
from the clements is enough, but this
is not always successful even in the
earliest stages of such attacks, and it
is wise usually to submit it to other
treatment. 1t is species of scaly &c
zema and yields most readily in the
application of tarry preparations such
as the following:
Recipe: Liquors. carb0nis picis, half
a dram; hydrargyrl ammoniatae. eight
grains; parafini mollis, add one ounce.
Mix.
This ointment, too. is useful in treat
ing any scaly scurf on the skin.
If the surface Is red it may not toll
crate an ointment of any kind and II
will yet yield to such a lotion as the
following, soaked in lint and renewed
as often as 1t dries:
Recipe: Liquors. plumb subace-
tails, quarter of an ounce; liquors. car

zinc oxide, half an ounce; glycerini,
half an ounce; aquae rosae, add six

How to Remove Ink From Garrett.

When freshly spilled, ink can be re
moved from carpets by wetting in
milk, says the New York Journal. Take
cotton batting and soak up all Of the
ink it will receive, being careful not to
let it spread. Then take fresh cotton,
wet in milk, ami sop it up carefully.
Repeat this operation, changing cot
ton and milk each time. After most of
the ink has been taken up in this way
with fresh cotton and clean, rub the
SPOT. Continue till all disappears; then
wash the spot in clean, warm water
and little soap; rinse in clean water
and rub till nearly dry. If the ink is
dried i'm there is no way that will not
take the color from the carpet as well
as the ink, unless the ink is on white
spot. In that case salts Of lemon or
soft soap, starch and ienOn juice viii
remove the ink as easily rs If on cot
