The Modern Rush.

The inventor who will devise an effi-
eient method of dispelling fog or coun-
teracting its effect will reap great for
tune, says Technical World Magazine.
1t Is said that a week of the fog SO COM

part of December, costs the railway
companies there s1,O00,o60, and the cab
men $1,000 day, while the loss to mer-
chants is beyond calculation. rhe ex-
cess of gas used on foggy day would
supply town of 10000 people an entire

Quence OF foul atmosphere, the people
of the British capital are put to from

expense annually, and in winter enjoy
sunshine only one-fourth of the time, to
which they are entitled. The effect of
the fog is aggravated by the outpourings
of smoke-laden chimneys, which infect
the air. bringing periodically an alarm

the home of Fred Tanner and the par
sonage of the Congregational church
were demolished.
The Quaker church was blown down,
the debris falling upon the home of
Mrs. Ella Granger, which was also de-
stroyed. Mrs. Granger was injured,

IN MY LADY'S GARDEN.
Hardy Perennials Highly Recon-
mended-Some of the Dear old
Fashioned Ones.

Hardy perenniaIs are, with the ex.
ception of the spring Towering bulbs,
the most satisfactory for home
grounds. They will continue to bios
som for many years with little care
established in well prepared and
permanent border.
While, as a rule, people buy their
hardy perennials from the nursery
man, many of these plants may be
grown from seed with little trouble.
There is a deal of satisfaction in
knowing how the plant appears as it
grows from seed to fruit, process of
two seasons. If the seed is sown in
good garden soil, late in the spring
or early in the summer will do.
Particularly easy to grow are the
various forms of the composite plants.
like the sunflowers, rudbeckias and
coreopsis. The perennial poppies
and the hollyhocks may be planted in
temporary bed to be transplanted
to a permanent one or they may be
planted where they are to remain.
Seeds of larkspur are slow in start
ing, and therefore should be planted
early or else kept watered If planted
later.
One of the most popular of the
hardy perennials and one of extraordi-
nary foliage beauty and attractiveness
of blossom is the columbine. AL
though one can get plants from the
nursery already started. the most de-
sirable plan on the whole is to sow
the seed in the garden and wait for
the second season for the flowers.
This makes it possible to secure great
variety and many plants for small
outlay. The seeds may be obtained
for a few cents package and of va
rious sorts, and sown in a temporary
bed in the garden. They will do best

PRUNEs IN A GOOSE.
How to Cook This Bird So It Will Be
Voted the Most Delicious
Ever Eaten.

To stun goose with prunes will
seem rather startling innovation to
conservative housekeepers, yet the
combination is distinctly pleasing and
has much more to recommend it than
its novelty. 1t is no more difficult to
prepare than the usual bread and onion
stuffing, and requires only those ingre-
dents which are at hand in almost
every home storeroom.
Before the goose is drawn, it should
be very thoroughly scrubbed on the
outside, using brush and soap suds.
Rinse 1t well and wipe dry. SINCE it

the inside. and wipe dry. For the
stuffing cook one-quarter pound OF

lease Them-Deputies Fire on Them
and XIII Three.
Johnstown, Pa.-Three men have
been shot dead, boy fatally wounded
and a mining engineer, Eugene De-
laney, seriously injured in a riot at
Windber among the striking coal min
ers tonight. The dead men were Pie
trc Martini, Paul Zills, leader of the
rioters. and Antonio Mazuca. The boy
who was fatally wounded is Charles
Foster twelve years OF age.
An eye witness of the riot in describ-
ing the affair said the trouble started
at 5 o'clock, when Deputy Sheriff w.
III. McMullin went to a mass meeting
held by the striking miners in wood
at the edge of the town. Many of the
miners had been drinking and the sight
of the deputy made them furious.
The officer was quickly surrounded
by miners who threatened to kill him.
McMullin, realizing that his situation
was desperate, fed for his life. finding
refuge in the house of Councilman
Charles Davis Practically every man
who had gone to the mass meeting
joined in the chase after the fleeing
deputy, and soon after the latter had
entered the Davis house 1t was sur
rounded by a mob of 1000 shouting,
cursing miners, who challenged Nc
Mullin to come out.
When McMullin failed to appear
the mob attacked the house and liter
ally wrecked it. The deputy sheriff
was roughly handled. but again man
aged to escape. The members of the
Davis family fed to the homes of near
by neighbors for shelter. Other dep
uties who had been on duty guarding
the property OF the coal company had
been notified of the trouble by this
time and twenty of the rioters were
landed in the lookup at Windber. The
mob, headed by Paul Zills. then
marched to the center of the town and
prepared to storm the Jail and release
the rioters. The deputy sheriffs fixed
bayonets to their rifles and sur
rounded the jail TO keep it from the
mob's possession If possible. The
members of the fire department were,
also called out to help restore order.
The foreigners were urged to be or
derly and leave the town, but infiamed
by liquor. they refused to listen. greet
ing the efforts to pacify them with
boots and peers. At signal the mob
began to close in on the jail shouting
to the deputies to throw away their
guns and give UP the prisoners.
The officers first tried to keep back
the mob with bayonets. but the effort
was Intellectual and when it became
certain that the little band of deputies
and firemen could not stand before
the bowling, infuriated mob they
opened fire.
Those of the foreigners who were
closest to the Jail had already begun
using knives in the attempt to disarm
the deputies. while others fiourished
revolvers. The deputies fired but one
volley, when the foreigners broke and
fed in wild disorder, leaving three of
their number dead in front of the jail.
The wounded who were able to walk
were hurried to their homes. while
an ambulance took the more seriously
hurt to the Windsor hospital.

New York.-Recorder Con, in the
Court of General Sessions. sentenced
Frank Hawkins to the penitentiary for
one year Thursday, and gave strikers
| In general some advice. Hawkins. who
| ia an iron worker, and was at one time
associated with Sam" Parks, was con-
victed of assaulting Samuel Anderson.
In passing sentence Recorder Gon
said:
"As a Judge, deem 1t important to
say to you that the evidence in this
case clearly points to a conspiracy OF
which you were one OF the conspira-
tors to take this man Anderson, and to
assault him because he was working
instead of the men on strike. That he
was assaulted and brutally beaten and
perhaps permanently injured, there
can be no question.
"That man Anderson has Just as
much freedom and right to work as
you had to refuse to work, and while 1t
is in evidence that you showed that
this man took the bread out OF your
children's mouths, you took the bread
out of his children's mouths, and his
children were just as dear to him as
yours were to you.
"You disabled him, practically speak
ing, from earning bread for his chill
dren, and surely you, as man. can
not claim that he loved his children
less than you love yours
"The law gives you and every work
ingman the right to organize for the
betterment of your condition; the right
to sell your labor to the highest bid
der; the right to refuse to labor for
anyone that you don't like; the right
to withhold your work except on condi-
tions that are agreeable to you.
"The law even goes so far as to ex-
tend to you the right to persuade other
men to adopt the same course, but
when men representing organized la.
Dor step over the very broad and gen
erous provisions of the law and use
violence as an argument to enforce
their views, for their fellow men, then
the law is violated and not only the
rights of the individual are trampled
upon, but the peace and safety of the
community are in danger"

The habit of keeping punches of 500
bills in shoe boxes in bedroom closets
up to $4,000 is not to be commended.
It is unsafe to keep over $4,000 in the
house. advises the Abilene Reflector,
though doubtless many Kansas farm
ers grow careless through handling
their increasing wealth and do not
realize how ltrge a sum they have on
hand. 1t is a good plan for farmers
to count their money every week or
two and deposit all above $4,000. just
a little handy money. in some good sub
stantial bank
