BOULDER F|ENDS
ARE CAUGHT
Four Men Confess
to Burning Rail-
road Depot
Prisoners Rushed to Denver
to Escape Fury of Indig-
ant Citizens.

Denver, Colo. Aug. 15-Frank
Kiser and J. w. Reeves, two railroad
men of Boulder. are in the county jail
In this city to escape the fury of the
Indignant citizens of Boulder They
arc said to have confessed to the
crime Of setting the Colorado and
Southern depot on fire last week
causing an explosion which resulted
in the death of four people and a
monetary loss of $250,O00. Two others
a,e also said to have confessed.
The confessions were made in the
presence OF witnesses, voluntarily and
are backed up by evidence which
leaves no doubt of their guilt The
confession of Reeves states that he
started the fire for the purpose of get
ting rid of two Colorado and Southern
strike breakers.
The sheriff at Boulder and the Colo
RADIO and Southern officials say that
they could not have been kept alive
until 10 O'Clock tonight and that only
the bringing OF them to Denver saved
their lives. The inquest will take
place in Boulder tomorrow, but the
prisoners will not be taken back to
testify. 1t is not thought that it would
be safe to take them within reach Of
the indignant people.
The company has filed information
against them and the preliminary trial
will take place just as soon as public
excitement subsidies sufficiently to
make it safe to take the prisoners to
Boulder.

I'VE want to congratulate you on
this work. Within the last ten or fif-

many copies of this particular kind Of
work. and have assisted, at times. in
the compilation and arranging Of much
matter Of this kind, but in our entire
experience this is the handsomest and
most elaborate piece Of work of its
kind that we have ever known. We
have a place in our office in which we
stack descriptive literature from the
entire country, but we have taken "To

and have placed it upon our bookshelf,
and we think that it is worthy Of one
Of the most prominent places in our

Daily New Mexican and weekly papers

ESSENTIAL POINTS ABOUT
THE MAKING OF BUTTER
Temperature and Method of Cream Raising
lust Be

fed on cotton-cake. The skilled but
tersmaker must therefore use her judg-
ment in adopting a cream tempera-
ture to suit the weather and the food
of the cows. The principle of churn-
ing is to attain the maximum amount
OF concussion with the minimum OF
fraction, and with this In mind the
worker must avoid a very coIamon
mistake, that of filling the churn too
full. Churn-makers usually state the
working capacity of their churns, and
IL Is generally found that churn one
third full allows sufficient plunge"
to bring the butter quickly, well grain
ed and of bright color. ana Is dis
tinct saving Of time. The first few
revolutions of the churn require to be
slow, but regular, with frequent wen
tilations" for the first few minutes,
longer in the case of sweet cream.
Fast churning merely swings the
cream and produces soft oily butter
Slow churning Is waste of time, and
gets pale "overworked-looking but
ter; but practice will enable the work
er to regulate her speed to suit the
churn and the cream. After a period
of churning the butter breaks" the
fat globules gather, resembling In con-
sistency rough oatmeal, with film
of buttermilk round each. At this
point the worker adds "breaking-wa-
ter" from a pint to a quart per gal
Ion of cream at a temperature not less
than eight to ten degrees below
churning temperature. The addition
of this water In two or three lots,
as the churning proceeds, brings the
grains" more rounded, even and freer
from the milky covering, and by the
liberal addition of breaking-water the
great fault of workers is to some ex-
tent overcome-that is, the butter is
not likely to be "overwashed" later
on. Well-grained butter, when the
buttermilk is finally drawn, requires
only one washing. used more as

to free the grains from dregs OF the
buttermilk.
A worker who can show a good
grained butter in the buttermilk
has grasped the essential principles of
good working. Under-churned butter
when the buttermilk is withdrawn
while the grains are too small-is
often over-washed and overworked In
an attempt to gather it together, and
is pale in color and deficient In flavor
when made up. Over-churned butter
gathers into irregular Jumps, greasy
looking and streaky. which cannot be
washed free from the buttermilk, and
so inclose too great an amount of
casein. tending TO lessen its keeping
qualities.
Opinions differ with regard to the
merits of dry-salting VS.. brining. Dry
salted butter appears to hold more wa
ter than brlned butter, but 1t is rather
that the water is not so well incor-
porated in many cases; its color as
a rule has deeper tint. In brining,
a coarse salt can be used, two pounds
to the gallon of water at tempera-
ture of eight to ten degrees below the
original churning temperature; the
grains" are left in this brine for 10
to 30 minutes, thus insuring a hard
ening of the grannles. which aids In
the texture of the finished butter. A
warm" brine causes the butter to
become water-logged, as 1t were, and
over-salted, whereas too cold a brine
chills the butter and has a tendency
to destroy the color. and frequently
not enough salt is retained to aid the
favor and preservation. Good grained
butter, when removed to the work
err does not require much manual
work to get rid of the water. II ii Is
allowed to lie piled for little time.
ii will drain fairly dry, and subse-
quent working will be given, with the
object of consolidating the grains to
| form firm flawless blocks or rolls
, when made up. Too much working
/ at this stage does not get rid of much
water, but merely bruises the butter,
| spelling the grain and making II
greasy and smeary throughout. The
storing OF butter is usually done In
refrigerators or in the coldest place
available, but not in any place known
to be damp, or the butter suffer. and
is likely to become moldy and rancid
1t may be noted that butter is at its
finest as regards color and flavor from
one to three days after churnipg;
after that time slow bat certain de-
composition sets in, which results ul.
timately in spelling and rendering un'
tit for food the finest butter ,ver
made.

TO MAKE HER TALLER.
The Kind Of Clothes a Little Woman
Ought to Wear.

Just back from Paris the tiny mite
of a woman was airing her views on
clothes:
"'rhe American dressmaker takes
too little account of height but lays
all the stress on weight" she said.
Her clients are apt to be divided
into two classes-stout and slender.
The slender little woman of five feet
gets about the same treatment at her
hands as the slender young Amazon
of five feet seven or eight
"A maline bow at the back of the
neck is a wonderful improver to little
persons--it adds height marvelously
Then there is the shoulder: Feel
of my shoulder seam. 1t corresponds
exactly with my shoulder line, but
let IL be fraction of an inch too long
and | am no longer petite, but a
dwarf.
Heavy, coarse materials are only
for the tall. Fine, smooth surfaces
are for us. And, there is this about
the skirt: Fulness should begin at
the hip, not below it-otherwise, the
skirt becomes a mere iiounce instead
of thing of lines. Between the waist
line and the hips the skirt should be
perfectly fitted
"The hat for a small person Is
more becoming If 1t matches the up
permost part OF the costume. If the
bodice is tint. the hat should be of
the same complexion. In the case of
a very small woman, waist and skirt
of different tones or colors are not to
be thought of. Even the gloves do
their part in making or marring the
picture White ones with dark gowns
dwarf the heisht, and so, too, do
capes and other fussy shoulder ar
rangements. Trimmed skirts and
braided effects are also ruled out
