Police Discover How Clever Thief
Secured Access to Pinault
Treasures.

Thomas j. Wainwright, the confessed
looter Of the DR.. J. N. Pinault resi-

branch Of criminal work and evidence
of his cleverness is turning up almost
every hour.
Police superintendent Doyle has re-
Gently learned how Wainwright opened
the safe and the means he took to con-
ceal the job. It was at first thought
that the safe had not been harmed in
any way and that the robber obtained
the combination of the safe from some
outside source.
The safe was drilled. A small hole
was bored just above the combination
to make it possible for him to hear the
tumblers fall. He may have worked
days before his ear became accustomed
to the delicate sound Of the lock, but
he kept at it until the doors swung
open for him.
Plugs Hole with Wax.
After he had looted the vault and
taken everything Of value to him, he
repaired the slight damage so that the
detectives were deceived for some time.
He filed the small hole with wax and
appeared unbroken. AS the lock is an
intricate one, the detectives knew that
/ it could not have been worked in the
ordinary way, and they began q search

Governor Higgins Of New York has
honored the requisition papers pre-.
scented to him by Detective James
Howard, and Wainwright will be

and turned over to the Minneapolis
officers if the papers are made out ac

LOSE
ASSESSMENT FIGHT
Arbitrary Increase In Hennepin
Valuations Made in 1904
Will Stand.

Hennepin taxpayers who have made
strenuous fight against the arbitrary
increase in valuation ordered by the
1904 state board of equalization, have
gone down to defeat findings in sew
eral suits brought by the state to coll
lect the full tax are being sdraWnssln
the county. attorneys office, and from 1
has won; that the 1904 state board Of
equalization and it's acts have been
found legal, and judgments for the full
amount Of the 1903 tax will be entered
up against the defendants. There may
be an appeal to the supreme court.
Taxpayers Refuse to Settle.
When the state board made the ar
bitrary raise on Hennepin county prop
erty, the local taxpayers were much
incensed and many Of them refused to
pay the tax. They commended that there
had been discrimination; that the as.
fixed by the county boards, and they
were willing to pay that assessment,
but would not pay the increase made
by the state board. The legality OF
the state board was attacked and it was
argued that there had been many ir-
regularities in it's organization and
conduct, including an unwarranted trip
to st. Louis.
Upon these grounds Benjamin R. Cop
page, backed by other taxpayers, Sc
cured writ of certiorari in the district
court ordering the state board Of equal
ization to show cause why it's actions
should not be reviewed by the local
court. Upon argument before the full
bench the writ was discharged.
Decision Comes Soon.
Suits were then begun by the county
attorney against the c. A. Smith Lum-
Der company, Harlow s. Gale, the West
ern Scrap Iron company, Benjamin R.
Coppage, the New England Furniture
company and w. L. Harris, to collect
the full amount of the 1903 tax. These
parties, as their defense, set up the
same allegations as urged in the appli
cation FOR a writ of certiorari, and In
the hearing Of the cases argued the
illegality Of the state board of equal
cation s acts at great length.
Judge D. F. Simpson has had the
cases under advisement for several
months, but will undoubtedly file de-
cisions soon.

Chicago, April 6. Charges that John
Alexander Dowie seriously contemplates
polygamy. and that his plans for a
Mexican colony, Of which he should be
the head, were inspired by his desire
to marry seven women, who had already
been selected and Of whom Miss Ruth

held at the Zion City college to discuss
the accusationsI against the deposed
leader, The conference was secret, but
the evidence which was placed before
it will be conveyed to the people at a
mass meeting to be held Sunday after
noon.
Mrs. Dowie appeared as one Of the
accusers Of her deposed husband. de-
claring that her home life had been
veloped in the mind Of the first apos-
tie. She resented his arguments, she
said, and because of this he threatened
her with divorce and even resorted to
personal violence. It is believed that

CARING FOR LAMPS
SOME POINTERS WELL WORTH
REMEMBERING.
Daily Cleaning One Of the Most I'm
portant --- Necessity for Boiling
Both Wicks and chimneys--
Treating Metal Portions.

Two OF the greatest family evils are
scolding wife and a smoking lamp.
The first must sometimes be endured,
but the second may be remedied by a
little care.
Daily cleansing of every lamp In
use should be as much part Of the
housewives duties as making the
beds. and the boiling of the burners
az least once in a fortnight is as inn
portant as the weekly sweeping.
Wicks should not be trimmed with
shears. but wiped OF WITH soft cloth,
for in the former case there are al
rays Jagged or uneven portions left,
which cause the fame to fare and
he lamp to smoke. BY careful wip-
ing on the charred portions OF the
wick each day steady, symmetrical
light will be obtained.
Another precaution to take to pre-
vent wicks from smoking is TO boil
them. Buy them in lunches place in
a porcelain kettle. cover with strong
vinegar, bring the latter to a boil
anu set NHeES tue hchtiC wiz hVSP

If chimneys are bought in quantity
and boiled. they also may be prevent.

Lay some shayings in the bottom OF a
wash boiler, pack in the chimneys,
throw handful Of salr over them and

then take from the fire; cover thick
ly so that they will be at least three
hours in cooling. When cold wash
the chmneys in hot water in which a
little soda has been dissolved Rinse
In hot water, dry and store in
closer.
Boil all the metal portions of lamp
burners in strong soda water for ten
minutes, rinse and dry IN sun or on
the stove Chimneys should also be
washed in hot soda water, rinsed well
and dried with crumpled newspaper.
Never leave the wicks turned up
when the lamps are not in use, for
the oil will ooze out and run down
the base creating not only an IN
pleasant odor. but being disagreeable
to handle In carrying a lamp from
one room to another, turn down the
wick in transit. but never allow tina
wick to remain turned down, for II :
