Pendleton is constantly having
fame thrust upon it through
the fact that this or that criminal
formerly lived in this city and was
a member of a prominent local fam
lily" Is this because the people of
this city have been bad actors or are
these numerous prodigals merely fur
ther testimony to the fact that almost
every other man, woman and child
in the northwest lived in this fair
city at one time or another.

"a soldier of the Legion
Lay dying in Algiers,"
While a thousand weeping women

Ebbed at each convulslve throb
Gee! I'm glad / left the army
For this moving picture job!'

New York, Jan. 3.-Mrs. Anna
Bruka of Rocky Hill Road, near
Flushing, is still keeping pigs. This
is not a business, but a social an
nouncement, as Mrs. Bruka Is near
ing her silver jubilee arrest for keep
ing pigs within the city limits. Mrs.
Bruka. who is along in years, is set
in her habits. She has seven pigs that
are maturing as rapidly as possible.
In their infancy she took the litter
into the shack she calls home and
they have been companions for many
months. Long Island butchers have
looked with envy uon the twisted-tail
litter and every attempt to barter
with Mrs. Bruka has been unsuccess-
full. Twenty-one times she has been
arrested and discharged. The old
women declares that the pigs are just
as dear to her as any ones pets, and
judging from the offers she has re-
fused they are much dearer.
Mrs. Bruka says that the pigs will
soon be large enough to dispose Of,
but that will not alter the situation
at all as she has contracted for an
other litter to keep her company,
when these have recorded their last
squeal, which is the only thing about
the pig the packer can not can. The
neighbors and the board of health
agents say they will keep up the cru
sade until they succeed in having the
nuisance stopped.
One by one the tipsters fall. The
papers record the bankruptcy of one
George Baring-his real name is Bos-
cowitz-who won fame all over the
country by his tipping bureau which
he carried on in this city but adver-
tised in playing the markets. The one
thing worse that he could have done
would have been to take someone
ese's advice. Within the past year
dozen or so have fallen by the way
side. There was chap over in Con-
necticut who made all his neighbors
rich for time by his tips on the
market. Now they are all poor. Hard
| ~ week goes by that one doesn't hear
| Of some one who has been hanging
on the fringes of the financial district
getting his money from suckers who
think that a man who really knows
something that will make him rich
will peddle it out at two dollars to
strangers, and who eventually goes
up the spout. The only sure way to
riches that any tipster has yet discov-
cred was that upon which Miller
now in Sing Sing-declared in court
that he followed.
Il got the best advice 1 could"
said he, land then 1 followed 1t with
copper"
The court naturally wanted to know
why, IL that plan had been successful
he finally failed.
II began to take my own advice"
said Miller ruefully.

after 1t has been cut into joints, rub
the flesh with salt and powder 1t with
paprika. When thus prepared. put
the chicken into a sauce pan with a
can of tomatoes and cook them to-
gether. without adding a drop of wa

this point. arrange the chicken on a
hot platter. add a cupful Of cream to
the tomato, season to taste with pap
rika, add little salt, IL necessary.

TO RENEW FURNITURE
PIANO FINISH is GIVEN BY MANY
COATS OF VARNlsH.
Much seraping and sandpaperine
Necessary In This Method-craeks
and Holes Must BE Filled
With Putty.


There are various ways of renovat-
ing furniture. The best consists In
the application of successive coats OF
varnish, each sandpapered and rubbed
to what is known as a piano finish.
This method is the finish you will find
on almost all the old mahogany OF
our grandfathers' days. The first
thing, then, is to get OF the dust and
dirt, and to remove every particle or
the old cracked and blackened warm
ish from the piece Of furniture you
wish to renovate. To do this you Will
need a cabinet scraper. These scrap
ers come in various shapes and sizes,
and are made to at the different
angles and curves of the wood to be
scraped. They may be bought for ten
or fifteen cents. The edges are draw
filed and ready for use. II the edge
is rounded the scraper will do no
work. If rough or nicked the wood
will be scratched and perhaps ruined.
With good scraper you will be sur
prised and charmed to see how quick
ly and nicely you can get down to the
bare wood.
If there is deep carving on the
piece of furniture the operation must
be varied. Take wood alcohol, and
with brush or cloth apply to every
nook and crevice. Let 1t stand for a
little while and then wipe it off and
scrape the wood clean as before d.
rected. The wood alcohol will soften
the varnish, so that it may be easily
removed. Care must be taken not to
allow the varnish to turn white.
Should it do so apply more of the
alcohol and wipe dry at once. If the
alcohol once reaches the wood 1t will
turn it white, provided it is mahog-
any, which is the only wood on which
alcohol has this effect. 1t merely
bleaches other woods.
The wood being cleaned the surface
must be made absolutely smooth. For
this use double sandpaper. Smooth
down all the rough spots, and I'LL all
the cracks and holes with putty,
which must be allowed to harden.
when it may be stained to match the
color of the wood. If the placing OF
the putty is carefully done even
large crack or a broken piece of We
neer may be so hidden that it cannot
be seen when the work is finished.
The wood will then be ready for
the varnish. The average amateur
cannot understand that the art of
vanishing differs very materially
from painting. Paint Is better for
rubbing in with the brush, but var
nish, because of the rapidity in dry
ing, must be flowed on to the work.
The work must always lay fiat and
remain so until the varnish has set.
A varnish brush is fiat and fairly stin
and fine. Put plenty of varnish on
the wood, avoiding too much rubbing
with the brush. 1t will settle into a
glazed surface If you have flowed
it on evenly
AS to the varnish itself, buy the
best that can be had. Finishing var
nish" of a good quality is what you
want. Before applying it, however,
you will find that time and expense
will be saved by putting on two coats
of fine white shellac, allowing each
coat to dry thoroughly for at least
twenty-four hours. If shellac is used
only two coats of varnish will be nee
essary.

COST OF A REVOLUTION
(BostOn POst.)

The personal expense account Of Francisco Madero, Jr.. in conducting the revolution which has made him president of the republic C Mexico has several points of interest l. is made public by the ministry of finance and as the government reimburses the sue cessfui contestant out of the public funds the statement may be accepted as reasonably accurate.
 It is observable that the cost Of arms. munitions and equipments for the revolutionary army was only 'f54 900. or less than One-half the tc' tal. while s65,000 was paid lawyers in in sundry cities Of the United States, and about the same sum to ''cOnfiden- tial agents" in this country, including Sl2,000 for publicity campaigns In newspapers"
 President Madero surely got results from the expenditure of bis money and nov he gets the money back again. He is in luck He secured at the bargain counter a whole republic for less money than it appears Co have cost two senators of the United States to obtain the seats in the body which they adOTn.
