THINKS He HIT
Fleeing BURGLAR
b. l.. HOxIE FIRES FIVE SHOTS
AT MIDNIGHT PROVIDERS
SATURDAY NIGHT.


What is thought to have been a
bold attempt at burglary took place
at the residence of Superintendent
Chandler of the Mcnamara Mining
company somewhere between l and
- O'Clock Saturday morning.
The story as related to the police
authorities, who had been summoned
by telephone to the scene of the re-
ported attempt is that at 1890 in
the evening Mr.. Chandler had been
awakened by some unusual noise.
Thinking perhaps it was the restless
ness of the child in the next room he
made an investigation and again re-
tired. B. l.. Hoxie, who rooms at
the residence, came in at an early
hour of the morning, and Mr.. Chand-
Ter awakened again. Going into the
hall way to speak to Mr.. Hoxie he
was. startled by Mrs. Chandler call
ing to them that some one was pry-
ing open screen. Mr.. Hoxie went
to his room, armed himself and he
and Mr.. Chandler started out the
door. AS they rounded the house
they saw two men who Immediately
started to fee. One of the supposed
burglars fed across the dump and
was seen running by the top men
working at the mine. The other fled
directly across the dump followed by
Hoxie, who was shooting as the man
ran, emptying five chambers of bis
gun. Hoxie claims that the man on
reaching the edge of the dump must
have been hit for he fell fifteen feet
through the ore bin. From there he
jumped fifteen feet into the cut Of
the railway and made his escape.
/ Mr.. Chandler Immediately tele
phoned to the police and the officers
were on the ground shortly there
after, but a search of several hours
| failed to reveal any trace of the
wounded man.
4 AS the lights at the Mcnamara rem
der the dump almost as bright al
day, Hoxie was enabled to give ;
very good description of the men ant
i the police were busy all yesterda.
and last night in looking up suspects
No one had called for the services o
a physician. so If the man was ser
iously wounded he will undoubtedl
be compelled to seek medical aid an
can then be located.

and FACT
At The BUTLER

An orthodox preacher on a hunt
ing trip is quite as apt to falsify,
on his results, as one who don't ac-
cept religion, during the season of
fish and game. Remember your fail
ing and laugh, the story concerns
both you and l.
Fish stories" is a pretty film, and
it isn't such an awful sin If you do
happen to purchase a cold storage
pickerel. and afterwards tell the
town folks that it required an hour
to land it.
"a Horrible Adventure" impa-
tient customer" The King and His
Jester" Highwaymen," Riding
School at Saumur," "A Faithless
Friend" When the Devil Drives, "
and THE Betrothed's Nightmare,
are beautiful motion pictures.
The singing of the Ave Marie
from Cavalliera Rusticanna is de-
lightful, and is much added to in
effect by the organ accompaniment
Mr.. Burrows voice was in great
form, he responded to 'Adieu Marie
and was compelled by an apprecia.
tive audience to appear the third
time, singing Annie Laurie"
There Never Was Girl Like
YOU and "On the Banks of the Ole
Swanee" were charmingly sung by
Miss Emmett as illustrated songs.

RECIPE FOR SOAP JELLY,
Economical Way of Using Up tho
Waste Scraps.

Take as much soap as will be re-
quired and cut 1t down in shreds.
Put 1t into saucepan and just cover
1t with hot or cold water. Allow the
soap to melt slowly over the fire until
1t is quite clear aud without Jumps.
Do not fill the saucepan too full, as
soap is much inclined to boil over.
The soap may be put into a jar In.
stead of a saucepan and melted in
the oven. Any scraps of soap may be
used in this way. It is better to make
soap jelly fresh each week, as 1t loses
its strength if kept many days.
Remember that the odor and taste
of soap will cling very tenaciously to
anything with which 1t comes In con-
tact, so that the knife and board on
which it was cut, also the saucepan,
ought to be kept for that purpose only.

NEW WAY TO SERVE TONGUE.
Mushrooms Add Greatly to the Flavor
Of the Meat.

Skewer large, fresh beef tongue
and simmer four hours. Remove skin
and place in a steamer over a kettle
OF hot water to keep hot while the
sauce is being prepared. Take two
tablespoonfuls butter and stir In a
sauce pan until bright brown, then
SUR In two tablespoonfuls -four and
keep on stirring until it all bubbles.
Now If made with stock or strong
soup the sauce will be doubly deli
cious. If stock or soup Is not at hand
use some of the water in which the
tongue was boiled. Add one pint Of
the liquid II you use fresh mushrooms,
two-thirds of pint of the latter will
make up for the additional LIQUOR.
Pour in all the liquid at once and stir
I'LL all boils. Put In salt and pepper
TO taste, teaspoonful Worcester
shire sauce. pinch Of sugar, a dash Of
celery salt and the mushrooms. If the
latter are fresh set the saucepan into
one of boiling water and let all cook
for at least 20 minutes; If canned, It
VIII be sufficient to bring all to the
boiling point. Pour over the tongue
enough to mask it we'll and put the
rest in gravy boat
Serve on hot platter garnished
with a border of small white celery
tips and slices of beet. Can be used
for luncheon. Have sharp carving
knife.

Broiled Chicken,

To broil a chicken it should be
opened down its back. II is best to re-
move the breast bone, or, at least, to
divide it, If the chicken is small, and
to quarter 1t If the chicken Is of fair
size, always taking care not to cut or
tear the flesh. The joints of wings,
thighs and legs should be broken and
their tendons clipped. except the birds
be very young, when the joints can be
severed at table. 1t is customary, If a
broiled chicken be of fair size, to quar-
ter II by cutting across 1t each way
with knife that is so sharp that the
crisp skin is not torn. The removal
OF its bones before broiling q chicken
does not impair its appearance, nor is
their absence noticeable, because they
are taken from the inside and only the
outside is visible on the platter. II
carving scissors are used. they make
a removal OF the bones and severing
OF the ligaments before cooking need.
less; that which is easiest for the
carver makes the speediest serving.
