mits, Story Of Bandits is
Untrue.

CRAWFORD, Neb.. Aug. 4-(Special)-
Walter Berger, the 1S-year-old farmer lad
who is in Jail here in connection with the
attempted wrecking Of the Burlington
train near this place. according to officials
has confessed. He now tells the Of
ficers that he alone did all the work OF
piling rails on the track which might have
put the heavy Burlington train into the
ditch. He says that he alone is impli-
Gated and thai the story he told yesterday
about being bound to the fence by two
masked robbers while they piled the rails
on the track is ali wrong. He says that he
put the rails on nc track to stop the train
that he might get aboard for Alliance to
receive medical treatment. This last part
Of the story is not believed by the Off
GERS nor by the railroad officials.
Berger at first told a thrilling story of
being tied to the fence by the two masked
bandits, who threatened to shoot II he
moved. He told Of a scuffle with them
after he had worked himself free from his
bonds. His former story was that after
he ran from the bandits they shot and
hit his little finger.
1t is not believed that his last story of
doing all the work himself is the true one,
as he does not bear the best kind of a
reputation. Some red paper was found
nailed to a post at which he had been prac-
ticing target shooting. This paper has
been traced to Berger, as it was wrapped
around a new shirt, which he had bought
a couple of nights before at Marshsnd.

cording to one authority, from the

Miss Ruth H. Northrop of Norwich,
Conn.,, has won the scholarship offered
by the Norwich Art Students associa-

sisted of three groups of animals and
figures modelled in clay from life.
The original copy of Jane Eyre"
written with a pen in the neatest of
penmanship, old fashioned and quaint
as Charlotte Bronte wrote in those
winter evenings by the fire, was ex-
hibited at the palace of women's work

None of the rich materials around it
attracted more attention than this old,
yellow book, that was made in the
lonely Haworth kitchen.

ECZEMA A GERM DISEASE.
Myriads Of Microscopic Animals Infest
the Skin Of the Sufferer.

When the skin Of an eczema sufferer
itches and burns in untold agony, do
you know what is going on within the
pores of that skin?
Myriads of microscopic animals are
gnawing at the flesh, breaking down
the fine cells and causing testers, thick
scales and that terrible itch. The
germs multiply faster than Nature can
throw them off.
Now, there is only one way to get
rid Of these germs-they must be
killed in their lodging places. Dosing
the stomach or trying to cure the blood
VIII not, Of course, kill the germs, and
that Is why all the blood remedies fail
In eczema; that is also why salves
which do not penetrate can do no per-
manent good.
Ordinary oil of wintergreen properly
compounded in liquid form will pens-
trats the pores Of the skin and kill the
eczema germs. If properly mixed with
thymol, glycerine and other ingredi-
ents Gas in D. d. D. Prescription) this
wash will build up the tissue Of the
skin and promote it's healthy growth,
giving Nature a. chance, while killing
the germs faster than they can multi
ply.

Famous Prices Of Famous Pictures.

Apropos of the recent sale of Turner'S
famous picture. "Mortlake Terrace" for
S66 $50, a writer in the current l1arper's
Weekly recalls sorie interesting facts.
America possesses few Turner'S, the bulk
of the painters works having been willet
to the London National GALLERY. Nearly
all sales at which Turner'S have been auc-
toned have occurred in England. The
Slave Shin" now in the Boston Museum,
was sold in the John Taylor Johnson col
lection. in New York. for $4,000 in 1876.
At The Munro sale in 1873 several Turner's
were sold al an average price Of $4,000:
At the Wells and Essex sales in 1890
and 1871 two Turner'S, ''Sheerness' and
walton Bridges" sold for $4,000. apiece.
At the Park sale in 1897 the price had
risen to $36. $50 and 500 37755, and at tho
Acland- Hood sale in 1908 "The Beach at
Hastings brought $S150D.
In this country high prices have ob-
tanned fer many years, perhaps higher
than in Europe. There are two famous
pictures in the Metropoliton Museum
Meisscnic.'s ''Fricdand-1S)7," and The
Horse Fair" by Rosa Bonhour. Az the
A. L. Stewart sale in 1857 the first of
these was sold for $4,000 At the Same
sale "The Horse FAIR was sold for $53,-
900. These two fine paintings now hang
ir the Metropolitan Museum, presented,
the first by James Henry Hilton. and the
second Fy Cornelius Vanderbilt.

MATCHMAKING IN IRELAND.
,n+.r sst of Boston People Aroused by
the Visit Of Miss O'Reilly.

consi derable interest has been
aroused in the subject of lace making
in Jrelan Vi in general and particularly
q, the W. ,rk of the Royal Irish Indus
+ries ASS. ,ciation, by the visit to Bos-
TON Of Miss Eleanor O'Reilly Of county
Meath. Ire Nlnd. This association was
founded about twenty-five years ago
hv the Coru ttess Of Aberdeen for the
nI,rrose of aiding the Irish peasantry
in the estab lishment of home indus
try. such as the making Of lace. en-
broi6ery and knitting. The work is
now done on a large scale throughout
ireland. All articles are sent to the
oantraI office of the association, and
from these arr, distributed and sold in
all PARTS of the world, particularly in
Eng land, Ireland. North America and
south America, the proceeds going to
the moor girls who do the work.
Although conducted as any other
husiness institution. it is founded on a
charitable idea, and has met with
hearty support wherever its work and
nurnoses have become known Queen
Alexandra makes a regular yearly pur-
chase Of la ces, and other beautiful
handiwork of these Irish people. Miss
O'Reilly has shown samples of work.
such as has rarely been seen in this
country, and her description of the
work and how it Is carried on in her
native country is extremely interest
ing.
Each county in II Gland has its own
industries, some for rugs and tweeds,
others for Iaces and embroidery.
Among the peasantr.y of Killarney the
industry is basket-raaking and furni-
ture. The girls are taught by experts
in the various branches of the work;
the products are taken by the associa-
ton and the profits are, turned over to
the girls.

Pincushion Flower.

Did you ever hear of the Pincushion
flower? If not, you should number it
among your collection of ANIMALS with
which you will experiment this coming
spring.
Perhaps you may know the bright
colors and tender green foliage of this
plant better under some of its other
aliases, in which it is as rich as a
finished rogue. Scabiosa, sweet scabi-
Gus, mourning bride and Egyptian rose
are few of the names under which
the plant masquerades.
This annual is especially desirable
for cutting, as it has long stems and
blooms almost constantly from july
until frost. The seed need not be
started indoors. but should be sown in
the spring as soon as danger Of frost
is past They make q delightful addi-
ton to any garden border or mixed
bed.

and that for mechanical proficiency

She learned motoring with her own
car in the Isle Of Wight and has rare
facility in mechanical matters.
The Grand Duchess Marie P6Ylovna,
nee grand duchess Of Mecklenburg,
has just Joined the Russo Greek
church, after being devout Lutheran
all her life. The conversion Of her
imperial highness, who was married t.,
the Grand Duke Vladimir in 1874, is
warmly welcomed by the Russians
the more SO as it was an unexpected
event. Her sister-in-law, the Grand
Duchess Anastasia of Mecklenburg,
mother of the crown prince Of Ger
many "a daughter of the Grand Duke
Michael of Russia). remains true to
the tenets of the Greek church.
Women are entering into serious
rivalry with men in the study of
medicine, while not a few femmes du
monde devote much of their time to
tending the sick poor. Certainly the
example has been set in high quarters.
Queen Alexandra and her band of
nurses have long since become world
famed, while not a year passes with
out visits of her majesty to the hospI-
tails. The Empress Marie Feodorovna
has never spared in fostering works of
charity of all kinds. Queen Olga of
Greece is another royal woman who
has emulated Queen Alexandra and
the Empress Marie in their labors of
love.
The French Canadian women in the
province of Quebec are the busiest Of

Dictates Of Fashion.

All-over embroidery in pale colors is
to be used for gowns.
Many effective robe gowns are seen
with border and graduated dots of
black.
More stripes in silk and cotton be-
rege, make pretty between season cos
tunes.
There are also plain linens with large
embroidered dots in a slightly different
shade.
French crepes are extremely popular
just now, and the price is less prohib-
tive than formerly.
Touches of coral grow more and more
popular, as shown by their presence
among the early summer designs.
If long gloves are worn, they are
wrinkled over the arms, and are not
drawn smoothly over the arms and ell
bows.
! Stripes are everywhere. The fashion
for bicolored stick-candy effects is very
evident in the new spring openings.
The corset cover for wear with the
directoire comes only below the bust
and is quite plain over the bust and
arms.
Gauze or chiffon scarfs are worn
with evening dresses, and they are
weighted with fringe. Often this fringe
is really heavy.
Many of the more expensive linen
robes initiated the effect Of stenciling.
This is a hint to the girl who is clever
at that sort of thing.
There are linens with equal width
stripes Of two tones of the same color.
,These appear especially in blues, gold
en- browns and dull deep pinks.
Conservative women are wearing the
high necked evening dress and many
exclusive dressers are wearing such
gowns altogether, considering the style
more modern than the entire decollete.
When you do not know a particular
collar. shoe, buckle or hat, just call it
a Louis XIV. and let it go at that, for
half the Louis dresses are copied from
remarkable old prints that his majesty
never saw.
One novelty in cotton wolfe is espe-
cially dainty and "springy looking"
The ground is white, with perhaps a
dozen fine thread stripes close together
to give the effect Of one broad stripe.
The eolors are delicate: pale blue, gray
and amethyst.
The Old-fash1oned sailor has made its
appearance once more for wear by the
younger ones, and this time under all
sorts of ridiculous names. The neck
wear itself, however, is as pretty as
ever, particularly for girls who are not
quite grown up.
Imagine the gorgeousness Of a dress
of gold satin, trimmed with applique
and fringe Of the same color, with a
simple trimming of seed pearls; such a
dress was lately fashioned and worn
by a petite brunette at one Of the fash
ionable Washington functions.
The directoire poke bonnet, worn by
the automobile girl, is a peculiar little
affair that strikes the happy medium
between a Salvation army bonnet and
a child's poke bonnet. OF course the
trimming consists OF a long. graceful
Veil which almost conceals every line
of the headdress.

A Woman's Paper in China.

Of the many signs of progress in
China, one of the most interesting is
the editing and publishing of daily
newspaper by a woman named Mrs.
Chang, a native of Pekin. After
marriage to a Chinese official, she
spent several years in central China,
where she learned much about the
condition of the people; and subse-
quently, upon the death of her hus-
band, returned once more to her native
city in North China. Meanwhile Mrs.
Changes mind had become intent on
the progress of her country, and she
rageously decided to start daily
newspaper for women called THE
Pekin Woman's News" which, on its
own lines, is said to be without a rival
in the whole world.-Dundee Adver
