Gold Dust sterilizes your
kitchen things, and makes
them wholesome and sanitary.

entrance and an officer blocked the
door to prevent the wife's admittance.
Throughout the building could be heard
the deep sobs and the screams of the
wife as Judge Dana pronounced SEN
tence on the husband who seems unable
to escape the commission of crime.
When Stoltzman left the court room,
there was another tender love scene IN

Then Mrs Stoltzman was led sobbing
from the building and taken to her
home at 418 West Sixth avenue.
Stoltzman has lived in Topeka for
several years. For some months he
has been engaged in the insurance
business and earned from $50 to $40
week. Three years ago he married a
pretty Wichita girl. But Stoltzman's
alleged efforts to reform were futile.
His experience OF the past did not

man entered tailor shop, where he
stole two suits of clothing and several
bolts of cloth. He also got several
suits from a clothing store. For this

sentence of from six to fifteen years at
hard labor in the state penitentiary.

NO SPRING CHICKENS.
Powder Explosion In Wisconsin De
stroyed the Crop

Chicago, July 11.-For weeks Chi
cago housewives have been searching
the markets for spring chickens. They
didn't get them. Market men VINO
were honest said they could not be
procured. Others with fewer conscien-
tious scruples sold chickens of the
vintage of 1910, but the real spring
broiler could not be had, and no one
seemed to know the reason. The
scarcity of spring chickens was ex-
planned today by commission men Wao
are supposed to know all about it.
When the country for fifty miles or
more around Pleasant Prairie, Wis,
was shaken up last March by an explo-
sion in a powder mill. the blast played
havoc with setting hens and incu-
bators. The explosion was mistaken
by many for an earthquake when it
first was felt. A few houses were
blown down and hundreds of windows
were broken. Many an Industrious
hen in a suburban basement was dis
turbed and failed to hatch out the
broilers that are now missing.
About 80 per cent of the spring
chicken crop went up with that pow
der explosion, though the owners of
the chickens did not realize what the
trouble was. The eggs were shaken
and the young chicks were either kill
ed outright and failed to hatch, or they
we're born deformed Some were
hatched out minus a leg, others with
twisted necks and some with only por-
tions of wings. Altogether the crop
was a sorry one, which accounts for
the scarcity of spring chickens.
Commission men say that there is
not a good spring chicken within a
radius of fifty miles of Chicago. The
crop in Wisconsin suffered as it did
in northern Illinois.

NEARLY TO WASHINGTON
Atwood and Hamilton AIight on Army
Aviation Field.

Washington, July 1O.-Tired ana
hungry but otherwise showing no IL
effects of their trip from Stemmers Run
Atwood and Hamilton alighted from
their aeroplane, on the field of the
army aviation school at College Park,
Nd. near this city, at 5:45 o'clock this
morning. They had covered about 40
miles at an average altitude Of 600 feet.
The flight was devoid OF mishap and
except for being thoroughly fatigued,
the aviators would have continued on
to this city in the machine. Atwood
announced that he probably would fly
into Washington later in the day.
The Start from Stemmers Run.
Baltimore, July 11.-Cheered by about
so rural admirers Charles Hamilton
and Harry N. Atwood, the Boston av-
iators, gracefully ascended from a
small knoll, on the west end of Walter
r. Townsend's estate at Stemmers
Run, Nd, at 4:35 o'clock this morning
and made a magnificent start for Col
lege Park on their last lap Of record
breaking overland flight from Boston
to the national capital The weather
conditions could not have been better.
The sun had just peeped above the
eastern horizon and the light southwest
winds fairly carried them from the
ground at the first turn Of the motor.
Ascending to an elevation of about SOC
feet the aviators SKINNED gracefully
over the little group Of spectators, and
with farewell wave, headed to the
southwest. and in a. few seconds sdiSa n
peared from view over the wooded hills
Both the men and the machine were
in excellent working condition AMI
there was not the slightest hitch. The
Pennsylvania tracks were followed to
Bay View Junction then changing tn
course a little more to the westward
a a a Il
eastern outskirts of the city, passing
over historic Fort McHenry at 4:55 :.
m, covering a distance of nearly -
miles in half an hour. Leaving Fort
McHenry, Atwood, who was steering,
headed the machine toward the
Patapsco, and followed the river, pass
ing over Halethorpe aviation field 1T
5:07 a. m.
Again taking up the Pennsylvania
railroad tracks at this point the pace
was quickened and the distance of
about 25 miles between the two avia-
ton fields was covered in 38 minutes.

. START OF THE RACE.

Kansas City July 11-Driven by a

away from here in the national balloon
race. The two leaders in contest will
be privileged to sail two or three bal
looms that will represent the United
States in the James Gordon Bennett

Every pilot in the race was pleased

stretches before them. There is. Of

pilots appeared perturbed over this dis

provided with life preservers. Then
too, the Aero club of America. which
controls the race, ruled that disuuali-
hcatlon would not follow for any of the
contestants who should be so unfortu-
nate as to alight in water.
