LEMON BATH POPULAR.

A London dispatch says the "lemon
bath" is the latest summer craz:--one,
likely to achieve much popularity with
those who delight 10 new sensations and
have the leisure to pursue them. Many
virtues are claimed for it.

the advice OF the wife of one Of her
coloniSl governors.
"The proper way to prepare the
lemon bath is as follows: Five lemons,
cut in.o slices, are lett to soak in a
basin of water for half an hour. The
vat r drawn iuto the bath must be
moderately htt, but not warm enough
to be enervstiDg, and the lemon water

THE MURDER OF HAZEL DREW.

THE MURDE r OF HAZEL DREW.
A dispatch from Troy, N Y, says
what is considered the most important
point yet developed in the Teal pond
murder mystery came intO0possession of
the police late yesterday, when county
Detective Kaye found the suit case which
Hazel Drew carried the day before che
vas murdered, and for which the police
have been conducting an exhaustive
search.
From articles found in the suit case 1t
is established, the police say, that Heel
Drew did not intend to 90 to Aserill
Park on the day she was murdered, and
the startling theory is advanced that she
was murdered 10 Troy and taken either
by carriage or automobile to Teal pond,
where her body was cast into the stag
naut waters.
There is much to bear out this theory,
and it sppesis that the authorities are
nearing a solution of the mystery In
the first place, the murdered girls black
leather handbag, containing all Of her
money except cents, was found in the
suit case. The fsre to Averill Park, ne' r
Teal pond, is 20 cents. While this 6ud
was made in Troy, detectives at Tel
pond found glove which was w'rI by
the girl, and in the finger OF 1t was
5-ceDt piece.
A reward of 81. 900 for the ar est
and conviction OF the murderer of Miss
Drew was offered by Rensselaer, curt.

According to the following from the

affair :
The privacy Of the ballot was more
conspicuous by its absence than In any
attempt to enforce the law and keep
each mans ballot sacred. Men in ad-
joining booths were permitted to en-
gage in conversation about marking the
ballots, and in more than n voters
went from booth to booth to advise
their friends. Deputy sheriffs were
allowed to go behind the counter to

Yosouf owned a beautiful horse
which was very valuable. While 70
seuf was tr~ansacting business a thief
stole the horse. The owner shortly
afterward saw the thief leading his
horse and took him before the kaid, or
judge.
4The horse Is NINE" sturdily insist
ed the thief.
In vain the other argued, and the
kaid was about to give his decision In
favor Of the villain when Yosouf ad-
vanced suddenly, threw his cloak over
the horses head and demanded Of his
enemy:
"Since you own the horse, tell the
kaid In which eye the animal Is blind"
lin the left" said the thief, making
q Wild guess.
Fosouf looked toward the kaid tri-
umphantly. Hes blind in neither
eye" said be.
So the noble horse came into its
rightful owners possession again, and
the wicked Arab vas punished.

This oak, a good tree of perhaps 200

Brakeman wood when the woodmen
called attention to something peculiar

SAYS Silver Will Advance

a close student of conditions, expresses q decided opinion that silver
will advance in the near future. In an interview in the Denver
he says:
at will not be at all surprising to me if the price Of silver
should make a considerable jump along about the first of January.
Heres what l mean" continued Mr.. Frewen, Because Of
the continuous decline of the price Of silver the trade of the United
States with Asia and other countries of the Far East has dropped
down to practically nothing. and the people Of these countries have
made it known that they can no longer continue commercial re-
laions because Of the unprecedented low price of silver.
at had not expected any further silver agitation during my
lifetime, but now it is plain that the Governmental authorities Of
the United States must, at the coming meeting of your Congress, do
something that will bring about the renewal of the trade that has
been lost, and this can be accomplished only by measures that will
result in the raising of the value Of silver"
