FURNISHINGS oF THIS MOST tM-
PoRTANr APARTMENT
Aluminium shs Most Satisfactory
Material for the Necessary
ussnails-Porselain Fittings
Preferable to Metal

Fasudi0us h0usekeeper5 are besi0W-
ing quite as much attention upon the
furnishings OF their kitchens as upon
any other part Of the house. The mod,
ern kitchen is sanitary Ia every re-
spect and It CLEANS with white enam-
el, porcelain fittings. glass topped ta-
bles and white sinks But the most
attractive feature Of this realm is the
array Of kitchen utensils and recep-
tacles These shine from being per
fectly kept and from being made from
material which survives the treat
ment through which such articles
must be put.
Aluminium is generally considered
the most satisfactory material for
kitchen ware. II costs more than the
majority Of other kinds. but II is safe
to use. is easily cleaned and always
looks well. Careless women some
times choose certain kinds Of enamel
ware for cooking and preserving and
then wonder why the food has PEI
culiar taste which Is due to the ware
alone II a part Of the enamel be-
comes chipped it is really unsafe to
use, especially when anything with
acid Is cooked in II.
Bras and copper kitchen ware Is
excellent II the pieces are well lined.
They are more dificult to keep bright,
but they repay the effort expended
upon them when they form a glitter
ing row against the white walls. The
simplest and most convenient way to
arrange ones kitchen utensils is to
have a fiat six inch board fastened
horizontally against the wall on three
OF four sides, well filled with hooks
Of various sizes and kinds. This keeps
the pots and pans out of the way but
in easy reach when needed
The other necessaries of the kitch-
en-, jars for sugar, pots for spices and
the little odds and ends that must be
kept on hand, may be arranged in por-
celain receptacles. Germany, Eng
land and Holland are supplying us
with some fascinating jars in white
with blue or brown patterns, IN Delft
blues with white trimmings-in fact.
in any OF the popular colors which
one might choose for kitchen furnish
ings. These jars may be had in sizes
ranging from the tiniest little spice
pot to one large enough to hold spe-
cially sifted and selected flour.
Ordinarily these jars have covers to
match and It is one Of the housewives S
greatest joys to arrange the jars on
the shelves which she has put up in
the pantry. These shelves are either
enameled white or they are made Of
thick plate glass with porcelain
0r nickel supports. Whenever porcelain
fittings can be substituted for metal it
is infinitely better. for they are no
trouble to keep clean, while, on the
other hand, the weather and the at
mosphere as well as the cooking affect
the polish OF the metal.
Some housewives like to have their
pantries and kitchens fitted with dull
green pots and jars or with terra cot.

blue and white or white with some

DYNAMITE IS FOUND
FIrTr-sEvEN STICKS HID IN FEN
 SACOLA.
Believed to Have Been kecreted for Purpose of Damaging Property
 of the Electric
 Company


 Pensacola. Fla, May i4.--(speciai. ) -Fifty-seven sticks of dynamite. each of from one-half to two pounds in weight were found today at a point about 500 yards from what is known as Big Bayou trestie. west of the city. and the entire quantity Is now in pos session of the oficer of the navy yard.
 The dynamite was found by marines from the navy yard, and inasmuch as the naval reservation has it's boundary at the Big Bayou they took possession of 1t. The police of the city, how ever. were notified of the find, as 1t Is believed that those who have been dy- namiting street cars had secreted the supply at that point. The officers pre- pared to watch the place and thus de- tect the men making the attempts at murder. The find leaked out through men coming to the city from the navy yard and all chance of capturing the men is gone.
 It is believed that the dynamite was stolen from either the navy yard or forts and had been placed there for future use. It is frequently used at both the navy yard and fort in wreck ing work, and the opinion is that sym pathizers secured it for use in blow ing up cars. or attempting to do so.

Moore; arrested Wednesday night. have. in the past few days by means of fraudulent checks, signed by one or the other. obtained from different Montgomery merchants. goods and cash of the combined value of S62.5O. The men are held at police headquarters on seven warrants charging them with securing money under false pretenses, and their trial will be held in the Re- corders Court tomorrow afternoon.
 Moore.i together with Austin and his wife, came to, Montgomery Saturday night from Arlington. Ga, and the trio rented rooms at Q boarding house on Montgomery Street. Imm ediately upon arriving in this city. they are said to have set to working a nice lit- tie scheme, whose object was to obtain something for nothing, taking the pre- caution to leave their baggage at the Union Station.
 Their plan of operations comprised the deposit of a small amount of money in one of the local banks. and in order to establish credit. the pur- chase of a few articles by checks drawn on this bank. This done. they pro- ceeded to pass ch ecks. signed by one or the other, on various merchants of Montgomery which were not covered Dy Lnel OrlBlndl uePOBlI. AS 6 EulNs some small article was bought and a check for $10 was presented in pay ment, the balance. representing a clear cash profit for the schenlers.
 Checks for S10 were given. by the pair to J. Conan, H. Eagle. George P. Haardt & Bro.,, two checks. each for $1O, to Louis Gold, a check for 32.50 to George P. Haardt. & Bro. Goods repre- senting about one-fourth of this amount were purchased. the merchants without suspicion of the valuelessness of the checks cashing them, thus enabling the men to acquire about $45. in addition to the goods received.
 It is presumed that Austin and Moore would have left the city in a day or two. had not the police interfered with their plans. Evidence is being securing in preparation for the trial, and 1t is expected that more examples of fraud they were perpetrating will be brought to light before that time.
 Austin's wife was not arrested in con- nectior with the case, as nothing has been discovered to duplicate her in tho legality practfced ....
