HEROINE
SAVES STOCK
Mrs. Klair Gets Animals From
Barn While Fire RACES
About Her
LOSS PLACED AT $4,000;
INCENDIARISM Is HINTED

Mrs. William II. Clair, a sister Of |. J.
Holllngsworth, a farmer, Just beyond
Elsmere, proved a heroine yesterday
afternoon, when she rescued five
horses, seven COWS and three pigs
from a burning barn on her brothers
place. Two COWS, one horse, one
steer and two calves perished The
building was destroyed together with
its valuable contents, and the loss will
reach $4,000. There is a suspicion
that the blaze might have been of
an incendiary origin.
Mrs. Klair was alone in her home
yesterday afternoon with her aged
mother, Mrs. Hollingsworth. when the
fire broke out AS she rushed into
the burning barn to save the stock,
the brave woman was kicked I'm the
leg by one of the horses she rescued.
and the limb was almost broken. She
is hardly able to be around today as
a result of the injury. and is still suf-
fering from nervousness as a result
of her trying experience.
When the woman entered the barn
and began the work of taking out the
live stock the upper portion Of the
born was a mass of flames and burn
ing embers were dropping to the low
er floor. The smoke was so thick
that she could hardly see. but despite
the fact that she was nearly blinded
and suffocated she kept up her work
OF rescue until II was impossible for
her to make any more trips into the
burning structure.
Mr. Klair said today that he was
at loss to know the cause for the fire
as there was no one about the place.
he having left the farm early in the
morning to go to Kennett Square.
In addition to the live stock burned
to death. all of MIR. Hollingsworth's
crops. much hay, fodder, harness.
farming implements, wagons and
other effects were destroyed.
On Tuesday, April 13, 1909, at
O'Clock in the afternoon, Mr.. Hol-
lingsworth's barn on the same farm
was destroyed by fire, the origin be-
ing unknown, and yesterday the blaze
started In the same mysterious man

SHAD BY THOUSANDS
FROM THE NANTICOKE

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
SEAFORD, Del, April 26.-Shad
are being caught by the thousands in
the Nanticoke river and old fishermen
declare they are more plentiful this
season than ever before. And un-
precedented catch of the fish is be-
ing made daily at points along the
river and hundreds Of barrels are be-
ing shipped to the northern and west
ern markets. Philadelphia and Balti-
more getting the largest portion.
The run Of herrings which gener-
ally precedes that of the shad has
been exceedingly disappointing to
fishermen and so far very few Of the
fish have been caught in this section.
Perch, bass and yellow neds are being
caught in large quantities and the
season promises to be moro profitable
than has been known In many years.

FASHION In HUE OF
TEAS WILL CHANGE
Pure Food Law Prohibits
Green, Which Hereafter
will be Motley

AS a result Of a new law going into
effect May 1. prohibiting the importa-
tion into the United States of green
teas which have been artifcially
colored, prices Of that commodity are
very likely to be raised. and in the
future green tea will be judged more
by taste than by sight The new law
comes under DR.. Wiley's department,
and is another step in the pure-food
campaign.
While the coloring of tea has been
in vogue for many years, It is one
thing which is believed by the i'm
porters to have done no harm. The
reason Of the belief is because so
very little coloring matter is used
that it has never made any great
difference. For instance one leading
exporter stated that in 100000
pounds Of tea only about n pounds Of
coloring matter is used.
COlOred With Powder.
The coloring matter is a certain
kind OF powder mixed by the Chinese
and Japanese and sprinkled over the
tea. This powder is composed chiefly
of indigo gypsum and Prussian blue.
II gives the tea rich coloring, which
makes n look much better by the
time II reaches the market Different
tea packers use different processes,
and, naturally. all the colors are not
the same. However. they usually
blend.
The two different kinds of tea
used I'm the United States are the reg
ular black tea and green tea, which
have been colored. The black tea is
consumed mostly in the North and the
green tea I'm the South.
Now that new law has been
passed prohibiting the coloring of
all teas shipped to the United States
the exporters feel that at first the
trade I'm green tea will be effected to
a certain extent, which will naturally
make the prices go up. The women
who usually buy tea examine 1t In
their hands in the stores aud It's ap-
pearance often results in a sale
VIII Not Look Well.
BY not coloring the green teas. In
stead of the different grades being of
bright shades. which seem to add 10
the appearance. the tea will be Of a
dull yellow hue or dark green, and
In many cases a mixture OF the two.
Although not containing the rich col
ors that were formerly seen. all tea TO
be shipped here after May will CON
tain the original flavor and will be
sold mostly in packages.
