HIDDEN MONEY is BURNED.
Cash Girl Hides Money in Waste Pa
per-Now Is Sorry.

Three or four hundred dollars worth
of sweepings gone up in smoke and
down in ashes is the story of a much
to-be-regretted accident at the store
of Fred Mailoux & Co. yesterday, saws
the Yakima Republic. In the store
on Wednesday night a lady who was
working there in the cash department
not wishing to open the safe to lock
up the receipts of the day, concealed
them in some waste paper and refuse
which were lying about and near the
waste basket. 1t was her intention to
thus dispose of the money for time,
merely calling the attention of others
in a responsible position to it after
wards. She overlooked the latter
part of the operation, however until
after the sweeper had got busy the
next morning and then it was too late.
The man who cleans up the store went
at his work in a business like way.
gathered up the refuse. including the
money, a number of checks and some
coin. The CON has been rescued. in
Guiding a hundred dollars or so in
gold, which, of course, is practically
indestructible. The paper money
and checks, however. are gone and
just what is in the future in the way
of recovery is problematical.
All the fire-marked coins were pull
ed from the fire and their demomna-
ton can readily be established.

FARMER SHOT DEAD
BY HIS FTANCEE

Louisville, Ky.-Girth Spencer
aged "a years, a farmer living al
Owen, Ind, was accidentally killed by
Miss Ida Reinhard. to whom he was
engaged to be married on Christmas
day, at the girls home in this city yes
terday
The tragedy occurred shortly after
Spencer had finished eating breakfast
at the Reinhart home Miss Reinhart.
her mother and Spencer were sitting
about the table talking when the con-
versation drifted to revolvers and their
uses. Spencer said that he had no re-
volver, whereupon Miss Reinhart said
she had. one, and she went to a trunk
and produced the weapon.
There were two bullets in the re-
volver and Spencer removed both of
these before looking at the gun. He
snapped it several times and handed
it to Miss Reinhart, who also snapped
1t several times. She then handed 1t
to her mother, who snapped it play
fully.
Mrs. Reinhart handed the revolver
back to Spencer and he put the bull
lets back into it. Miss Reinhart did
not see him when he reloaded the
gun. He handed it back to her and
she took 1t in her hands and began
to pull the trigger, and the third
time the cartridge exploded and the
bullet sped straight into the mans
heart

ARTIFICIAL CLOUDS TO
PROTECT VINEYARDS

How the French grape growers
protect their vineyards from frost by
producing artificial clouds is describ-
ed by Consul Murphy of Bordeaux:
"The process" the invention OF
Edouard Lestout, of Bordeaux, con-
sists of filling small wooden boxes
open at top, with an inflammable
composition consisting of a mixture
of equal parts of resinous with earthly
matters (clay terra alba and the
like) reduced to fine powder and
pressed into a compact mass. In the
center a wick extends through the
compound and serves to kindle it.
The wick, however, may be dispensed
with and the composition ignited by
pouring a few drops of alcohol, pc
troleum or other inflammable oil over
the mass and applying a match. These
boxes, about six inches long, by six
wide, made of pine wood ordinarily,
are placed in line, about 80 feet apart
around certain areas.
$50 far as grapevines are concern
ed, the most dangerous period of the
year is in April, when the young
shoots are showing some vigor and
the juices running freely. Then a
slight frost may mean disaster unless
the plants are protected in some way.
There is but little danger when
dark or cloudy morning follows a
cold night. The trouble comes when
the first rays of the morning sun
strike the almost frozen and unpro-
tected plant. BY the Lestout process
a dense cloud of smoke is produced
hanging over the vineyard long
enough to protect the plants from the
suns rays and give them a chance to
recuperate from the dangerous effects
of the frost.
"The composition in the boxes to
windward only is ignited. the thick, !
black, heavy smoke hanging over the
field forming a shield against thel
suns rays. The inventor declares ALL
so that his process may be used forl
the movements of an army
hiding the erection of field works;
also as rain producer, and even for
Irving off grasshoppers and locusts."
