BEHAVIOR WAS EXCELLENT,

Boston, Dec. 10. The battleship
Vermont, from the yards of the Fore
River Ship Building and Engine
Company of Quincy, successfully
completed her government trials at
sea this afternoon, including a four
hours run at full power, "a
hours endurance test and the usual
turning and backing maneuvers. Her
entire forward deck from stem to
bridge was encased in ice as the re-
suit of the sc hours trip in a north
west gale and zero temperature.
Tonight Rear Admiral Hemphill
notified the secretary of the navy
that the behavior had been excellent
In the four hours full power she
averaged 1888 knots an hour. In the
24-hour test the average speed was
17.43 knots an hour and the horse
power 1880. The requirements call
ed for an average of IS knots at full
power and 1880 horse power at
two-thirds speed.
The trials were held under the
most severe conditions yet under
gone by government vessel and the
requirements were all completed
within four days, which is the short
est period in which a battleship has
been put through her PAGES.

out, want them soled.'
"'Yes sir the servant answered.

that night, said again:
"I suppose, James, that you did
as 1 told you about those boots?'
James laid 35 cents on the bureau.

Sympathy Not Needed.

DR.. Fridtjof Nansen, Norway's IA
nous arctic explorer, now minister
to Gerat Britain, makes light of the
sympathy expressed by many persons
anent the "hardships" of travellers. He
says: There never was such mis-
placed sympathy as commiserating a
man who has lived in the wilds. Most
men who travel in out-of-the-way parts
of the world do so because they like
it. People who live in the center Of
what is called civilization do not I'M
derstand, cannot realize, the spell that
getting close to nature, battling with
nature, has on the heart" He does
not believe in the use of alcoholic bev-
erages, holding that while liquor will
raise the temperature for few min
utes, after that it falls lower than
before.

UNDERSTOOD WHAT WAS SAID.
In no Other Way Can Actions of Cat
Be Explained.

AS striking cat story as I have
heard in a long time comes from Al
ton, N. M, and is vouched-for abso-
lutely, says a writer in the Boston
Record. The cat was accustomed to
visit the next door neighbor after each
meal to be fed and petted, bringing
also two kittens.
One of the women at the house thus
visited, who had entertained a dislike
for cats, finally, on observing the ami
NAL, expressed aloud liking for the
gray kitten and said she intended to
ask to be allowed to keep it.
The next day when Mother Cat
came for her bits only one kitten &C
companied her, but she took away
some choice morsels for the one left
at home. This continued several days,
when the woman who had first ex-
pressed intention to get the kitten
which the cat was feeding, remarked
that she had given up wholly the idea
of securing the gray kitten. All three
felines appeared at the next meal and
have done so since.

ATTEMPTED ROBBERY
POINTED REVOLVER AT THE
CASHIER AND DEMANDED
HANDS UP.
WAS OUTWITTED BY THE CLERK
Then Ran Away and Hid, But Was
Captured.

Great Bend. Kan, Dec. 10.-After
a daring attempt here at 9 o'clock
this morning to rob the ]. V. Brink
man Company Bank singlehanded a
man who gave his name as George
A. Lewis of Kansas City was sur
rounded and surrendered. Bud
Westfall, driver for the Wells-Far-
go Express Company, was killed by
a shot fired by one of the pursuers.
Lewis walked into the bank few
minutes after it opened this morn
ing and pointing a revolver at A. E..
Taylor ordered the latter to throw
up his hands. In an instant a clerk
lodged into the vault and set off the
burglar alarm Lewis fed imme-
diately and darted up an alley. A
crowd of men and boys were soon
close behind him in pursuit and see
ing himself hemmed in the robber
darted up the stairs in the Wells
Fargo building, two blocks from the
bank On the second floor he lock-
ed himself in room for an hour and
defied arrest Several shots were
fired into the room in an effort to
dis1odge the robber. One bullet
struck and instantly killed Driver
Westfall, who was in the express
Office on the street floor.
Finally, after parleying for an
hour with his pursuers, Lewis sur
rendered and was taken to the coun-
ty jail Officers believe that the
name of Lewis is fictitious The
man said that he came here from
Chicago three days ago to do the
job.
The transaction in the bank con-
sumed but a few minutes time. Tay-
lor handed over $3.50 in bills to the
robber. The money was recovered
when the robber was taken to jail
Cashier Taylor, revolver in hand, led
the chase after the robber. The room
in which the robber barricaded him
self was occupied by Mrs. Anna Ty-
Ter as a millinery store. Lewis told
Mrs. Tyler that he had robbed a
bank, that crowd was after him
and begged her to hide him. Instead
she fed in terror and the man lock-
ed and barred the door, After he
had surrendered he was followed to
the jail by an excited crowd. Cries
of Lynch him. were frequent and
B. w. Taylor, father of the cashier
attempted to reach the man and at
tack him. 1t was with difficulty that
the robber was landed in jail. There
he first said his name was George A.
Lewis of Kansas City and then it
was George A. West and that he had
come here from Chicago on Thurs
day. The robber is 20 years old,
weighs $50 pounds and is six feet
tall. He has light hair and blue eyes
and is well dressed. He admitted
that he had not given his correct
name. He said he had made con-
tributions to eastern magazines and
papers but his matter had been re-
jected and he had become despond-
ent. He cried as he told his story.

BILLING yp TEE CANADIAN WEST.
The American Settler Is Welcomed
to Canada.

A number of the leading newspa-
pers on this side of the line have been
noticing the growth of the Canadian
West in recent years, and draw atten-
ton to the fact that there seems to be
no abatement of the influx of settlers
to that great grain-growing country.
The Buffalo Express thus refers to the
subject:
Canada West continues to grow.
There were ALA homesteads entries
there in July of this year, as against
1871 in July, 1905. Canada plumes
herself over this fact, with becoming
pride. But what appears to make our
neighbors happiest is the statement
that of these ALA homesteaders,
1912 were from this side of the line.
who recrossed the border to take up
homes in Canada West, or of the 808
from Great Britain, or of the 1896
from non-British countries. 1t ap-
pears that the item in this July report
that makes Canada rejoice most is
this of the 1,212 American farmers
who decided to try their fortunes in
Canada West.
1.-THE compliment is deserved. The
1912 were mostly from Dakota and
other farming states, and go into
Canada fitted better than any other
class of immigrants for developing the
new country. They take capital with
them, too, say Canadian papers proud
ly. In every way, they are welcome
over there"
AS the Express well says, the
American is welcomed to Canada, and
the reasons given are sufficient to in
vite the welcome. The American
farmer knows thoroughly the farming
conditions that prevail in the Cana
dian prairie provinces, and is aware
Of every phase of agricultural devel-
opment in recent years.
In practical knowledge of what is
wanted to get the largest return for
labor and investment he is by long
odds superior to any European set
tier. He knews what is required to
bring success, and he is able and will
Ing to do it, and his future causes no
apprehension to the successful Cana
dian farmer. The agent of the Cana
Qldu GOV6Tum0ul, WuOSO duuISSS dp-
pears elsewhere, says that the differ
ence between the manners and Gus
toms of the farmer from Dakota, Ore
gon or Minnesota and the farmer from
Manitoba, Saskatchewan 81 Alberta
is not nearly so marked as that be-
tween the farmer of the Maritime
provinces and the Ontario tiller of the
soil. Hence the welcome to the free
homesteads of the Canadian West,
and there are hundreds of thousands
of them left, that is extended to the
settler from the Western States.
Wood at Eight Dollars a Pound.
French walnut is the finest wood
we have" said the cabinet-maker. 1T
comes from Persia, but it is prepared
in France. 1 have seen French wal
nut worth So pound, and it is CON-
mon thing to pay So pound for it.
OF course it is used principally for
veneering Only millionaires could
have chairs and tables of solid French
walnut.
Mahogany, wonderful as it is,
rarely fetches such high prices. From
81 to So is a very good price per
pound for this wood.
Ebony, if it is in a particularly
large piece, so that it will cut well,
will often bring SIS pound in the
wood market"

court says:
"a common carrier has no right to

bills for car service when the deten-
ton for which the charges were as
sessed was occasioned as much by

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
f1ance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength thap other makes.
