URGES JUVENILE COURT HERE
Mrs. L. Y. Avery Here in Behalf of
Work of Visitation.

MrsL. Y Avery is in the city inter-
esting people in the Juvenile court
business by soliciting subscriptions to
the Juvenile Court Record, magazine
published monthly by the Visitation
and aid committee at their offices, 10
Dearborn street. Chicago. The prirci-
pal objects of the society are to care
for neglected. dependent or delinquent
children and to help establish juvenile
courts. and their motto is, "All cases
assisted regardless of race. color or
creed" The magazine protests. strong
~ against sending children, who have
committed some misdeed to the police
courts among hardened criminals or
locking them up in the county jails,
and shows in numerous ways the nee
essity of having juvenile courts instead.
The case of each child is carefully in
vestigated in these courts and he is
not let to go his own way again, but
is looked after closely by the proba-
ton officers. Most of the children are
sent 10 detention homes and are taught
the right way of living. The society
works on the plan that 1T is wiser and
less expensive to save children than TO
punish criminals and il IS saving
thousands every year. Mrs. Avery viii
be here about a week.

Our Financial Institutions.

1t is interesting TO note that in 1895
there were but seven national banks in
this country that had deposits of over
20 million dollars while today there
are thirty-eight. We are now recog-
nized as one of the leading financial
centers OF the world. Among household
remedies, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
has been recognized as the safest and
most reliable for over so years. No
other can approach its record of cures
of stomach, liver and bowel complaints
If you have never tried the bitters you
really ought to do so today. If you
are subject to attacks of heartburn
bloating, vomiting, cramps, diarThoea
backache, poor appetite. dyspepsia, in
digestion, costiveness, female troubles
or malaria, fever and ague, you'll find
the Bitters very helpful. The genuine
has our private stamp over the neck of
the bottle.

Filling for a Turkey.

Plain bread filling is always nice. 1t
would require at least one loaf of stale
bread and one-fourth pound of butter.
II should be three days old at the very
least. Reduce it to fine crumbs, salt
and pepper to the taste. Use no water,
milk or baking powder. There is mois-
ture enough from the turkey. If you
wish to aid oysters drain all the liquor
off them, see there are no shells. roll in
bread crumbs and drop them in through
the dressing. There should be about one
and one-half pints of large oysters.
Before putting the turkey in the oven,
brush it all over with soft butter and
put it in breast down. Place the turkey
on a rack over pan containing two
cups of hot water. 1t is well to have for
basting also pint of hot water on the
stove in which are three level table
spoons of butter. At first turn on full
heat, then reduce the heat roasting the

MURDER HOTEL MAN AT DESK.
Wounded Porter, Shoot at Guest
Kansas Thugs Deeds.

Kansas City, Nov 27-In an at
tempt to hold up and rob ]. Frank
Emery, proprietor of the Kentucky
hotel in Kansas City, Kan, Emery was
shot and killed and Lee Simons, a
negro porter, was shot in the shoulder
and slightly wounded. Charles Rum
BILE, aged 80, an iron moIder from
independence, Mo-, one of the would
be robbers, was shot in the cheek by
officers, who pursued him and Sam
Hutton, a negro, down Minnesota ave
nue., the principal street in the city.
Rumble's wound is not serious. Both
Rumble and Hutton were arrested.
Hutton's home is in Kansas City, Kan.
Rumble and Hutton were intoX1-
Gated. They entered the Kentucky
house and walking over to the desk
told Emery to hand over his money
No guests were in the lobby at the
time. Emery told them to get out,
that he had no money. The men stag
gered from the desk apparently to
make their departure. When they
reached the door, however, Rumble
braced himself against the negro and
with shaky hand fired two shots at
the hotel proprietor. Guests rushed
into the lobby and found Emery dead,
lying across the hotel register, which
was spread open on the clerks desk.
One bullet from Rumble's revolver
went wild. The second had pierced
Emery's chest, just below the heart,
causing almost instant death.
A guest poked his head out of the
door of his room, 20 feet down the
corridor from the office. Quick as a
flash Rumble fired two shots in his
direction. The guest retreated to his
room and Hutton fed.

baby's been crying for milk all morning
and l didn't have a mite to give him"
When Martha came to the house where
her last customer, Miss Webster, maid
en- lady, lived alone on a side street, she
was surprised to see that snow had not
yet been removed from the doorstep. All
was very quiet, and Miss Webster could
be neither seen nor heard. Martha bang
ed the door, stamped her feet and ratified
the milk can to attract attention. Then
she felt sure something must be wrong,
and set out to investigate. She opened
the door leading from the sitting room
into the hall. There lay Miss Webster
unconscious, with a look of agony on her
face. Martha felt a strong impulse to
run. She conquered the feeling, got her
milk can and dashed some Of the icy
cold liquid over Miss Webster's face, and
at length she opened her eyes. The poor
lady was too dazed to talk, but only moan
ed about her foot. Martha tried her best
to assist her up, but found it impossible.
80 she made her as comfortable as she
could, and started for help.
In the next house an Irish family lived.
Mrs. Mulcahy caught sight of the milk
cart.
"And is 1t milk we've got?" she asked
joyOusly. 1.-THE saints be good to We,
child, for bringing it. I'll take three
quarts, If ye please"
She's a fOine lady" said Mrs. Null
cahy when Martha stated her errand
"and faith, darling, it's meself would be
glad to do something, but Timmy's got
the measles, and my man amt home,
neither, so what kin do, at all, at all?"
Martha concluded to go directly for
the doctor, Fortunately Dr.. Brown had
just returned from the Wheeler farm
Leaving the milk cart at the barn, Mar
tina got into the doctors sleigh, and they
drove back to Miss Webster's. Her ankle
was broken, as Martha had guessed, and
she assisted the doctor while he set the
fracture. When he had finished, he said :
Nov, little girl, just stay here while
longer till can get somebody to come
and take care of our patient, and then
we'll go home and thankfully eat our din
ner."
No Thanksgiving dinner had ever tast-
ed so good to Martha before, though she
missed her parents. The doctor insisted
upon heaping her plate at every oppor-
tunity.
Late In the afternoon Martha drove
home, tired but happy. Her father was
comfortable, and was quite as much in
terested as her mother in listening to the
narrative Of her experience
But Martha's Thanksgiving surprises
were not all ended. A few days later her
father, who had nearly recovered, came
home one morning and gave her huge
bundle.
Miss Webster told me to give that to
yOu," he said, ITS good and heavy,
whatever 1t is" The bundle proved to
contain mammoth turkey. Around its
neck was tied a blue ribbon to which a
card was attached bearing the words
'FOr Miss Martha Wheeler, with the
compliments of those whom she made
happy on Thanksgiving. Look at my
heart"
Martha was nearly overcome by this
gift, but she proceeded to investigate the
meaning of the cards last sentence. The
inside Of the turkey proved to be neatly
lined with white paper and contained a

"Great Thanksgiving weather we'll be
having, I'm thinking" remarked Mr..
Wheeler as he came in to supper, tits
showing hard, and the wind Is coming
up"
"Oh, goody," exclaimed Martha in high
glee. whats Thanksgiving without
snOw?"
The next morning 1t was still showing,
and the wind was busily piling up great
white drifts. "'TwOn't be a pleasure

said Mr.. Wheeler, as he prepared to
start, "but s'pOse I've got to-" He
found the travelling even worse than he
expected 1t was very late when he reach
ed the village, and he did not return home
till nearly dark. Not being robust man,
he was completely exhausted from his ex-
ertl0ns, and during the night became ILL.,.

"Oh, ri Co." volunteered Martha,
cheerfully. 'I'll tell DIR. Brown to come

Martha bundled herself up, put on her
mothers rubber boots, and two pairs Of
mittens, and set out. "0ld Billy must
think I'm pretty heavy" she laughed. as
she drove out Of the yard with the milk
cart.
Getting 10 the village, two miles away
was not an easy matter for a girl not
vet sixteen. The roads were not broken
out, and badly drifted. The milk cans
bumped into each other with great force,
and Martha had several narrow escapes
from an upsetting. But finally, Grafton
was reached, and Martha drove through
the almost deserted streets to DIR. Browns
house.
When she had stated her errand, the
doctor promised to go to her father i'm

rest.
"Oh, no, can't" exclaimed Martha.
