The court Of criminal appeals
Thursday reversed and remanded the
case Of Mrs. Minnie Lee Streight
from Waco, Texas, in which Mrs
Streight had been given life SEN
tence in the penitentiary in connec-
ton with the death of her husband,
a former newspaper man, at Nc
Gregor. The court, in an opinion by
Judge Harper, finds several reversible
errors. In the first place II is held
that change of venue should have
been granted because of the senti-
ment in McLennan county. The fail
ure Of the trial judge to hear the APP
plication for habeas corpus applied
for when the case went to trial, is
also criticised, and 1t is distinctly
held that Mrs. Streight should have
been given an opportunity OF showing
whether or not she was entitled to
bail during the trial of the case.
The railroad commission Wednes-
day reached decisions in nearly all of
the cases taken under advisement
last week. The most important case
decided was that ordering ] Isc fares
for parties of Ia or more travelling on
one ticket and carrying no baggage.
This was earnestly contended for by
the Texas Baseball League and the
Southwest Texas League, and will be
joyfully received by the clubs COM
posing the two circuits. Chairman
Mayfield dissented from this order.
The Episcopal Cathedral of st. John
the Divine of New York, the largest
ecclesiastical structure in the country
and the fourth largest in Christen-
dom, was solemnly consecrated We'd
nesday. Although only partially con
structed, 1t has already been twenty
years in building, at cost of $780,
600, and 1t may take as much longer
to complete it, at total estimated
cost of S10,OO0,0O0.
The case of Sergeant Marley, given
a life sentence for bayoneting a man
at Dallas. was submitted in the court
of criminal appeals Wednesday. All
local guard officers were present and
heard the arguments.
The biggest street parade the South
has witnessed and the biggest strictly
military pageant in the nation since
the civil war was given at San An
tonic Tuesday by the army division
from the maneuvers camp at Fort
Sam Houston as the days feature of
the program. There were $500 men
in line, under command of Brigadier
General Frederick A. Smith. The
column was formed in the following
order: Third Battalion of Engineers.

For SIX Cushions.

If you have silk-covered cushions in
your house, you must have noticed
how often the feathers or down comes
through, giving the pillow a fuzzy,
unsightly appearance. This could have
been avoided, and can be the next
time, by ironing the inside Of the silk
with an iron that has been rubbed
with shoemaker's wax.
This ironing, done before the pillow
is made up. will act as a sort of thin
varnish on the silk, and will prevent
the feathers from working through.

PACKARD TRUCK
DOES THE WORK

T.. T.. BODICE of the Won Hamm-
Young Company returned on Satur-
day from Kauai, where he has spent
Il few days demonstrating the great
ladaptability of the Packard trucks to
plantation work. A three-ton truck
was shipped to the Hawaiian Sugar
Company at Makaweli and was I'M
mediately put in operation hauling
fertilizer to the cane fields on the
mountains which are too steep for
railroad grades. The truck hauled its
load OF three tons up to the camp in
thlrty-iive minutes without the slight
est effort whatever. This Is dis
tnnce of four miles and Il rise of 900
feet, and II gave the truck the finest
kind Of an example Of plantation con-
ditions. The truck was then loaded
with lumber and driven to the cane
| fields on the Wahiawa Ridge with
the same case and success. b. ID.
Baldwin, the manager, stated to MIR.
Dodge that the truck was then haul
ing up the grade the same load which
NpuIu require loul mule teams 10
haul, and was being moved in half
the time which II would have taken
the four mule teams. At that rate,
with five mules to each wagon, -four
In number, the truck was performing
IN the same space OF time the same
work which would require forty mules
to do After these demonstrations
the truck was Immediately accepted
by the Hawaiian Sugar Company and
put IN operation. This should GER
tainly prove to plantations the indis-
l"hSaoIe value OF the Packard truck

DEPARTMENT Of
ACCESSORIES
VALUABLE

One of the departments of The Won
Hamm-Young Company which de-
serves the most credit and which Is
such boon to the automobile buy
ing public is ;hc Automobile Access
sorics and Sundrics Department. This
department is better equipped aud
carries more varied and larger
stock of supplies than any concern
on the Pacific Coast except the big
supply houses. A casual look over
The stock dscloscs the fact that an
enormous amount of tires are on hand
at all times, including five different
makes and every size used on the
islands.
Many new accessories, which are
exceptionally useful arc to he found
in stock at all times, and are receive
ing their due consideration. Such
things as the Hoover auxiliary
springs, Strombery carburcters. Tire
Doh, Patent patches. etc, are of great
interest to automobile owners. over
500 Strombcrg carburetcrs have been
Installed on many different makes Of
machines in the Hawaiian Islands
during the past four years.
The Hoover auxiliary spring Is an
other new invention which not only
makes a car ride very much easier,
hut absolutely prevents the brcakagc
Of body springs under any normal
conditions. If Hoover springs are
installed under all four body springs
, and the spring clips kept as tight rs
should be required at all times, and
| the machine operated In sane man
ncr, there is absolutely no reason for
spring to break. So many of these
springs have been installed and have
given such excellent satisfaction that
people are fast learning the great
value of this new invention of m
old blacksmith named Hoover, Of
Fresno, California. .Ni
Another OF the most modern invcn-
| tons In this department Is the So
| called Tiro-Doh When clsing OF
an INNER tube receives cash or q
cut the Tire-Doh may be applied and
the casing rendered practically as
good as new. Originally when tire
received cash it was allowed to re-
main open and all kinds of sub
stances would insert themselves int 0
| the cut, such as glass, sand or mud.
with the result that the tire would be
Injured to a great extent. Sand would
invariably work itself into the cut
and up between the different layers
of canvas and rubber, causing the
casing TO blowout in no time as It
would be weakened to such an cx-
tend With the application of the
newly invented Tire-Doh the cut is
FILED up with the new substance and
The life Of the casing thus prolonged.
Shoppers are taken just as good
care of as buyers.

bane Of the apple grower in New Mex.

the codling moth, unlike the other
memters OF the moth family, is not at.

arisen as to whether or not light is

are being kept unon the experiment,

MATCHING CHICKS.

In testing the eggs you will find
some that are from IL to "a hours be
hind the rest. These should be shift
ed to the part of tray having the high
est temperature, so they may catch
up with the rest or an uneven hatch
will result.
The more heat, the faster the
embryo grows and the larger the air
cell; SO those eggs having the largest
air cells should be shifted to the cool
est part of the machine. Sometimes
the air cell gets to one side OF the
egg, showing that the egg has not
been turned often enough. The side
having the most air cells, should be
turned down, as gravity causes the
heavy part Of the egg to settle to the
lower side. Best results are obtained,
when the eggs are turned two or more
times day. Every one understands
that to get a good hatch one must
have good hatchable eggs which can
only be produced by strong, healthy
breeding stock.-Rural World.

NEW USE FOR SUGAR BETS.

An entirely new use, and one that
may in time become very important,
has been discovered for sugar beets.
This is the making Of them into -four.
This -four is now being manufactured
in considerable quantities at Suresnes,
in France, where an immense dryer
has been built for the purpose.
The first part Of the process con-
sists in chopping up the beets and
drying the water out of them. They
contain to start with u per cent. Of
water, nearly all Of which is removed
by evaporation. BY this means 100
pounds Of dry material Is obtained
from 357 pounds of beets.
This dry material contains more
than seventy per cent. of sugar and
therefore on being ground to fine
meal is exceedingly sweet and adapted
to the making Of cakes and buildings.
The sugar beet -four is estimated to
contain something like 81 per cent. Of
pure nutriment- Bakers Weekly.
