An these advantages conduce To low

Several wonderful bodies of ores Of this

BORDEAUX MIXTURE

The first consideration in making
Bordeaux mixture is good materials.
The second is stick to the formula.
The proportions to use are four
pounds of copper sulphate (Dlue Wit
rioD, four pounds of the best stone
lime, and fifty gallons of water.
To dissolve the copper sulphate put
five gallons of water in wooden
tub and suspend the copper sulphate
in a sack, such as salt sack, just
below the surface of the water, and
allow it to remain over night.
Stake the lime separately. 1t has
been shown that there should be full
dilution of the lime and copper sui
phate before mixing, therefore dilute
each mixture to twenty-five gallons,
but do not pour one into the other;
both solutions should be poured at
the same time into the spray tank SO
that the two streams mix while fall
ing. Well made Bordeaux is an adhe-
sive spray, hence carefulness in mix
ing will be repaid in rainy weather
if directions and formula are closely
followed. The weak lime sulphur
solution given on page 3. is for many
reasons better for summer use on
apples, than Bordeaux.

COURT WILL NOT ACT

st. Paul, May 23.-In brief
note this morning the supreme
court declined to act as board
of arbitration in the controversy
between the governor and F.
A. Whittier, superintendent of
the state training school for
boys at Redwing. The note was
signed by Chief Justice Start
and said: "Your request of
May 20 that the justices of the
tors in the matter of the charges
to be preferred against the SUI
perintendent of the state train
ing school for boys at Redwing
has been duly considered and
the conclusion reached that we
cannot comply with the request.
We have no jurisdiction Of the
matter as a court, and if we
should consent to act as arb-
traitors it would establish an
undesirable precedent which
would embarrass the court and
directly tend to impair conf
dence in it,"

intendent Whittier of the STATE

with incompetency, brutal treatmen
of inmates and with personal assault

eral Simpson at the request of A. ID

There are several stories afioat and
Mason's name is connected with them
Whether there is any foundation for
these reports The Free Press has
been unable to determine. One of
who is alleged to have slipped one
over" on Fong Moon, the oriental who
is conducting a laundry in this city.
The officers are reticent and refuse
to divulge anything they know. 1t
is reported that Mason was going
under an assumed name at different
times. AS to the truth of this The
Free Press was unable to learn.
Mason Was Suspected.
After the robbery of Louis Huettl's
barber shop last winter, suspicious
seemed to have turned toward Mason,
for a search warrant was gotten out
and his rooms were searched. The
search did not result in the finding
of the razors, and nothing further
was done about it. Recently the

Der shop.
Sheriff Osten arrived in Hammond,
Ind, without delay, and left at $40
a. m. today with his prisoner for Man
katO, and will arrive on the late
train tonight. To him, Mason made
denial of the charges against him.,
the same as he did yesterday to The
Hammond correspondent of The Daily
Free Press.
Letter and Check Cut a Figure.
If the case against Mason comes to
trial, it is believed that the letter
and check received by Miss Anna
Cole will cut quite a figure. The
letter is long one, covering two
pages, and is very closely written.
1t is understood that man named
Peterson has made an admission that
he rewrote the letter and check from
copy furnished him by Mason 1t is
said by those who have seen the
letter that it is of such a character
as ought not to deceive a girl of even
ordinary intelligence. The writer said
that he gave an assumed name and
an assumed address, and that he was
sending her the money to square
himself and to avoid any future trou-
BILE. He said that he had been quite
gay in his time, but was now settling
down and was to be married in few
days.
Had Accumulated a Fortune.
He had accumulated a large for
tune and was going to England never
to return, but before getting married,
to head off any possible trouble, he
was dividing $1,000 between five
girls that he had gone with in the
past. He said that there were only
five girls that he had ever had any
thing to do with, and Miss Cole might
not remember the occasion, but it
was still fresh in his mind.
This letter undoubtedly contains
much more, but County Attorney
Schmitt, who has possession of it
now, refuses to divulge its contents,
and The Free Press has been obliged
to take it's report second handed from
party who read the letter before
it came into the possession of the
authorities.
Says He Is Innocent.
Mason was interviewed in Chicago
this morning just before his departure
for Mankato. He reiterated that he
was innocent of charges made against
legged bogus check or getting money
on it. He later admitted receiving
some money from the Cole girl, and
also said he got some money from
Chicago.
