Lincoln. Neb.. Sept. 3.-Jealous
because her husband, Joseph Indo-
VIVA. persisted in pressing women'-
skirts, Mrs. Jessie Indovina tried to
stab him in the back with pair of
shears, slapped him in the face with
for the dinner and then took one
half ounce of carbolic acid in her

the last Ave months.
Previously it had been agreed up
on that the two should live apart.
Mrs. Tndovan had been given $50
to go to her home at Kearney.
Borrowing pencil from one of

back rooms of the restaurant and

RATE TO CHINA
Been ADVANCED
OWNERS INCREASE CHARGES ON
FLOUR TO CHINA, JAPAN AND
PHILIPPINES LINERS
NOT AVAILABLE,

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 3.-F!our
freight rates to China. Japan and
the Philippine islands were ad-
~vanced Tuesday. The rate to Japan
has been boosted from 81 a ton to
-: to Shanghai, from 50 to 81; to
Hongkong. from 81 to $3.50, and
Manila, from $3.50 to -. About q
month ago operators of steamships
in the Oriental trade held a meeting
and decided to raise the tariff on
-four September 1. The absence OF
itinerant freighters from the local
market was potent factor in the
present increase.
Last fall saw a heavy influx OF
many foreign freighters to Puget
Sound and the government oficials
came in for severe censure by the
shipowners for chartering foreign
bottoms to bring coal to the Pacific
for the Atlantic battleship fleet.
These vessels. having delivered their
cargoes at San Francisco, were left
on the Pacific without cargoes. They
were anxious to get to their destina-
tions and accepted cargoes at almost
any figure-anything to help defray
the operating expenses Of the vessel.
In order to meet this competition tho
regular lines were forced to pull,
down their, rates until the tariff on
-four to China was as low as 81. a
figure which established record in
Oriental shipping history
With practically all the tramp
liners gone. the regular line COM
panies got together and decided on
the advance in rates which went
into effect Tuesday The present Chi
rese boycott on the Japanese Is one
factor which Is helping local Orien-
tai freight-carrying steamship lines.
The Chinese are demanding that
their goods be sent in ships owned
by others than Japanese. and this
has thrown much business to Ameri-
can companies that might have gons

WILL ABANDON
HISTORIC MINE
TIGER POORMAN, AT ONE TINE
GREATEST MINE IN COEUR D.
ALENE DISTRICT NOW WORK.
ED OUT.

Wallace, Ida. Sept. 3.-Within
two months the great Tiger-Poor-
man, owned by the Federal Mining
company and located at Burke, will
be abandoned. With this action
there will pass into history one Of
the famous producers Of the district
and one Of the richest sources Of
mineral wealth in the Occur d.
Alenes, says the Wallace Times.
Work has begun in the Standard
at Mace, cutting the station for the
great pumps of the Tiger Poorman
These will be removed as soon as
the place has been made for them
Meanwhile the cleanup in the Tiger
Poorman is going on, and the prop
erty will be closed Immediately.
The station for the pumps is be-
ing cut at the 1400-foot level in the
Standard They we're at the 1900
foot level in the Tiger-Poorman
The other machinery will be taken
out also and the workings left to the
water.
TIdCtiCdily all the recent WORK IN
the TigerPoorman has been for de-
velopment, and some small ore bod
les were found, but it is reported at
Burke that these have been worked
out, and there is not sufficient basis
for further extensive work to war
rant keeping open the mine.
Strikes have been reported in the
property recently, but the Federal
company has denied the reports.
According to those familiar with the
property such ore as was found was
not Of high quality, and the quaint
ty was entirely unsatisfactory.
When in the heyday Of it's produc-
ton the Tiger-Poorman employed
800 or 400 men. For many months
only about so have been at work
and these were all employed on de-
velopment searching for new bodies
OF ore that failed to materialise.
According to the return made by
the Federal company to the assessor
the last years output Of the mine
was $152,784.t0, gross, and the
company lost @toa.os7.ss in its op.

Fountain of soap Bubbles.

One of the most novel and fascin.
ating sights among all the fascina-
tons of the Franco British Exhibi-
ton is the soap bubble fountain in
the British Hall of Textile and Chem
ical Industries.
The fountain consists of a double
basin surmounted by graceful fig
ure; concealed under the base is an
electric motor, air blast and pump;
the first drives the two latter, which
force soapy water through a pipe
connected with eighty-seven different
outlets, each one of which emits thou
sands and thousands of bubbles.

IN DENvER's ELECTRIC AIR.
All the Trolley Cars Stop When a
Thunderstorm Comes On.

There is one city in this country
where motormen and conductors of
trolley cars don't mind a bit when
they see thunderstorm approach
ing, because it means that they can
have rest and won't be called down
for being behind their schedule. That
city is Denver
The atmosphere of Denver seems
to have an extra supply of electricity,
and whenever they have an electric
storm there it is apt to play hob with
dynamos and anything that runs cleo
trically. For that reason it is a rule
of the street car company that at the
first sign of lightning every car must
stop and stay right where it is until
the electric display has ceased.
1t is common sight in Denver to
see the street cars stalled all about
the streets before the pavements are
even wet. On these occasions the
motormen and conductors settle
themselves comfortably, read the
newspapers and enjoy themselves.
So do most of the passengers, who
haven't the impotence of the East.
But it's the employees who really have
the snap. for it means good rest for
them.-New York Sun.

The available coal yet stored in the
earth in Germany is estimated by
Professor Ferdinand Fischer. of Got
tingen, at 100, 10000, 900 tons; In
England only 100000, 1000 tons;
in Belgium, Austria-Hungary and
France about 1900, 100000 tons
each. The store of Russia is but i'm
perfectly known. North America can
produce $4,000, 900. 900 tons, and
Baron Won Richthofen has stated that
China has supply nearly as great.
Japan, Borneo and New South Wales
have considerable coal; Africa. an I'M
known quantity. Germany's coal
should last another thousand years,
but England's supply will begin to
chow exhaustion within fifty years.
In the United States the production
has increased from about 6.20O,00
tons in 1891 to nearly 100000 in
1901.

Morning in an
indian Compound
by MARY ANABLE CHAMBER.
LAIN.

All over the compound, from yer.
andas and "go-downs,'' forms are
seen rising from sleep, each one
wrapping the drapery of his couch
about him. with no idea, in doing
SO, of conforming to any standards
urged upon the attention of the race
by Mr.. Bryant, but for the simpler,
II less poetic, reason that these drap-
cries constitute his bedding by night
and his neither garment by day. But
do not make the mistake of thinking
that, because the requirements of
the Hindu's costume are scanty, his
toilet is. therefore, a perfunctory
matter. Follow him to the we'll. The
chances are that you will never drink
water again, but you will obtain
knowledge. On the brink of that
great, yawning hole in the ground
known as the compound well, whose
sides are of stone and whose steps
lead you down to the waters edge,
behold the males" of the compound.
Divested of the draperies already re.
ferred to, and in attitudes ranging
all the way. from the pose of the
Disc Thrower" to that of the most
resolute ''squatter" upon a Western
claim, they are lined up in a row
from the top of the steps to the bot
tom. In the hand of each is a chatty.
and one and all are engaged in the
offices of the morning bath. And
their tub is the we'll. The trimming
chatties are passed up and the empty
ones down, legs are curried, feet are
secured, teeth are polished with char
coal and stick, throats are gargled,
noses trumpeted, and, in short, thu
Whole man receives such washina
and spiashing, such rubbing and
scrubbing, such a molishing and pol
ishing, as leaves nothing to be de-
sired, except in connection with the
well. This latter consideration, how
ever, is one that does not disturb the
Hindu, who, priding himself upon
being, externally, the cleanest plat
ter in the universe, devotes but little
thought to the inside of the dish.
His additions and these of his col
leagues concluded, he fills his chatty
once more from the pure fountain
below, lifts it high in the air, throws
his head back, and with unerring
aim, pours the crystal libation in one
long. steady stream down his open
threat, skiHfully poised to receive
and conduct it to his germ-proof in
terror. This done, his draperies are
resumed, and he departs to his work.
Suddenly, as out of catapault,
the sun leaps up from behind the
eastern hills, and day is at hand

NO HANDS OR FEET.
STILL ENJOYS LIFE.
Was Victim of a Blizzard of'ee
--Story of His Fight to Reach
Shelter.

J Although he eats and drinks with
care and dresses without assistance,
Arthur ]. Murray, of Portland, Ore,
who was in Pittsburg recently, has
neither hands nor feet. The men,
bers had been frozen in a Canadian
blizzard and their amputation could
not be avoided.
Murray is one of the happiest men
on earth. His humor is sincere. He
/ is glad he does not have limbs that
are racked with rheumatism To the
man glum with brooding over i'll fate
Murray's magnetic. uplifting CONVEX
sation always puts things in a more
cheerful light.
Recently this man started giving
lectures in small towns. He appears
in tights showing the arms extending
Just below the knees, then proceeds
to dress after applying his artificial
members. Fully attired he can run
and even dance a bit and swings
along the street with careless grace.
Knives, forks, spoons, matches,
hooks, pens or the like are easily
slipped into openings provided in the
wooden wrists, which practice has
enabled him to govern accurately.
The hooks, handy in dressing, are
used more than any of the other at
tachments.
Murray says that in the forty-one
years of his life he has never taken
a drink, but he chews plug tobacco
necessarily. He seldom smokes, dis
liking to handle fire. He tells an in
teresting story of his life, which fol-
lows in part.
Like every one else, learned the
benefit of my blessings only after
lost them. In the big blizzard that
swept some of the Northern States
and Manitoba on January ~, 1888,
there were anypitiful deaths among
teachers, school children and settlers.
In Omaha school teacher named
Miss Freeman lost her four limbs
just as did. When the roof was
blown from over the heads of the
children huddled inside the school
house she had the presence of mind
to tie the children together instead
of turning them out to seek their
homes separately. That would have
been sure death.
AFTER fastening them in pairs she
connected all with strips torn from
her underskirts and started the line,
with the Oldest in the lead, to the
nearest home, a half mile distant.
She brought up the rear and picked
up some that fell. A Dakota school
master sent his pupils to their death
in the storm and remained himself by
the fire. keeping comfortably warm
