EVERYDAY TABLE MANNERS

Table manners in their simplest
form are 80 taken for granted by
well-bred people that at the first I'M
pulse it seems almost unnecessary TO
give instructions concerning details

Herrick in the Woman's Home Com
palion for January But the Otfens-
es against convention we all set at
times prove what everyone does not
know exactly what constitutes good
conduct at meals.
Il sit needful at this stage of civ
ilization to say that one should not
eat with mis- knife? 1t ought to be-
but am afraid it is not those of
Us who are accustomed to eating
only in our own homes or az the tab
les of our friends are prone TO think
that none but barbarians eat with
their knives A little foreign travel
Is likely to cure us Of that notion
No only foreigners whom we meet
at hotels or IN pensions shock our
sensibilities by such offenses, but our
own countrymen often show us eX-
ampies OF their skill in swo.t.swoll0w
ing exploits

HELPS DRAW
BANK BILL
.peelal 10 the paIly Leader.

Special TO the Daily Leader
Oklahoma CITY, Okla, Jan. l2-Rad-
ical amendments are proposed in the
Oklahoma bank guaranty law by q
bill introduced in the house of rep
resentatiyes Wednesday by Repre-
sentatiycs Acton. Cox and Fuller,
three state bankers Probably the
change most at yariOnce with the
present law is, that instead of pay
ing off the depositOrs of failed banks
with cash and at once, the banking
hoard is directed to issue certificates
due within four months to all dc
positors
This, say the authors of the bill
will give time to get all the assets
and liabilities together and prevent
the excitement due to immediate
cash payments out of the guaranty
fund.
Another important change that the
annual premiums due the guaranty
fund II proposed to be reduced from
one-hfth OF a cent, as at present. to
onei wentieth OF one per cent annual.
~ The amount of emergency assess
ments which may he levied within
one year Is also reduced from 2 to
per cent OF tae average daily deposits,
The banking board under the bill
introduced today, would consist OF the
Governor and two experienced bank
ers, the latter to receive the same
salary as bank examiners. The max.
mum limit of the guaranty fund IS
made per cent OF the total average
daily deposits as at present Certi-
tlcates bearing 4 per cent interest
shall be issued when the bank guar
anty fund Is exhausted and depos-
ltols not satisfied The banks are to
retain their premiums as special de
posits from the banking board
Authors Of the proposed law are

IN FAVOR Of MRS. SCHEN[K STRAIGHT
Defense Scores Heavily in Trial of Woman
Charged With Poisoning Husband

the foundation for a probable claim
Of conspiracy For the first time AL
bert Schenk, brother Of John O.
Schenk, head of the family was
brought into the case.
Did nc Mrs Schenk complain to
you that Albert Schenk had gone to
The hospital and secured Johns sig
nature TO certain paper which would
make Albert executor Of Johns es-
state if the latter should die sudden
ly?' was asked.
" do not remember all Of that con
yersation' ' was the reply.
Much of the testimony was of a
technical nature, Mr. O'Brien bring
ing out various facts regarding med
icines prescribed for Schenk in his
tllress. 1t was admitted in the cross
examination that hyomel quinine, one
Of the compounds taken by Mr. Sch
INK contained arsenic in small guam
titles.
81 do not want this jury confused
said Mr., O'Brien, "as to organic and
inorganic poisoning. Lead and ar
senic produce inorganic poisoning"
That is So" replied DR.. Hupp.
We'll, cholera morbus and maurial
poisoning would be organic poisoning
would it not?'
Yes, that is so, Mr.. O'Brien.'
These questions were put because
at the morning session DR.. Hupp had
asserted malaral poisoning was inor-
ganic, and not organic poisoning.
Continuing, DR.. Hupp said bismuth
is given for a stringent purpose Bis
muth contains arsenic DR. Hupp
then admitted that if the physicians
previously atteniug Schenk had pre-
scri5ed bismuth for him. that would
fully account for Schenk's condition
when the witness was called to at
tend him.
On redirect examination. Dr. TTupp
said Schenk was removed from his
home to the hospital not so much be-
cause he was in a dangerous condi-
tion but Of suspicious that the pack
or was being poisoned lie said
these were based on the fact that
Sehenk became violently i'll each
time he drank from certain bottle
of mineral water the analysis OF
which, it is claimed, showed it was
heavily charged with arsenic.
gRlrs Schenk appeared in better
spirits than at any time during the
trial, laughed frequently and entered
into animated whispered conferences

Wheeling, w, va, Jan. ~ The
defense scored Wednesday in the
case Of Laura Farnsworth Schenk,
charged with having attempted to
poison her husband, John O. Schenk,
Dr. Frank lie Moyne Hupp, who re.
ported the alleged poisoning to the
authorities, and who was considered
me star witness for the state, was
unler cross-cXam.ration by Attorney
John j. p O'Brien all day with the
exception Of few minutes in the
morning session, when Prosecuting
Attorney J. b. Handlin completed the
direct examination.
Mr. OBrien apparently, followed no
definite line CT questioning and win
no apparent purpose. Suddenly he
collected the scattered ends OF the
cross-eXamination, firing one sharp
question after another at the witness
a bring out points considered Of
great value to the defense.
Among other things admitted by DR.,
Hupp was that he was not sure the
symptoms exhibited by John O. Sch
euk, even after the removal of the
latter to the hospital, were due to ar
senlral poisoning Until mineral
water used by Schenk was analyzed
by experts; that the discolorauon oil
the patients gums probably was due
to a diseased con dtion and the fact
that "Schenl did not use tootn-
brush rather than to lead poison
ing and that he was at no time act
ually confined TO his bed at all times
The statement was made on tA3
stand by the witness that Schenk
was "bedridded," rather than bed
fast" 1t has been ger erailv suppos-
ed that Scnenk was 70 rweeks at the
point Of death. OBrien also secured
an admission that It was The wife who
first summoned DR. Hupp and who
asked If Schenk should not have a
trained nurse.

SEX AND BODILY I'LL.
Men Are More Susceptible Than
Women to Common Complaints

w S''N' ~ Op'iNN~ii OS''P'oi'hS
In these days of thin lawn waists,
open work stockings and low necks
il is interesting to learn that women,
nevertheless, are not nearly so sus-
ceptible to pneumonia and tubercu-
losis as men, says the New York
World. More suferings from asthma
are to be found among women than
men, but this is about the only com
mon complaint in which female cases
rredonderate.
All this we learn from report
made by Dr. James Grant Andrew NJ.
b., of Glasgow. after careful ex.
and tabulatlon of 42,613
hospital eases treated during the past
10 years.
Dealing with the relation of sex
and age to the chief forms OF dis
ease Or. Andrew shows that the ma.
iority of general diseases is more
common in males than in females.
Taking the entire series of 1865
cases Dr. Andrew finds that no less
than six per cent OF them were OF
tn emale sex. Among affections OF
the more important organs we learn
that pulmonary diseases We're more
prevalent among males than among
females in the ratio OF three-fourths
to onc-lourth. OF pulmonary diseases

HOT SPRINGS
 LOOKS G00D

A recent dispatch from Fairbanks says: Arrivals from Hot Springs place the seasons output at S750, OOO-more than double that of last year. This is due to the opening up of the rich pay on Sullivan creek and
 tracing of it on down stream.
 A. Book, after seven days run with a small crew, hOisting and dump ing into the boxes, cleaned up S1S,- 900 on She Book fraction. A few days ago Barker & Coburn, another firm of Sullivan creek operators, af- ter a run of equal length cleaned up sI7. 1000 and others are doing as well proportionally,
 Good reports continue to come from American, or Wentworth creek, near Fish lake. midway between Hot Springs and Fort Gibbon, where a find was made last winter.
 The pay has been traced across several claims and the pay streak seems well defined. The ground is shallow and easily worked.

QUARTZ MINING IN PANAMA.

Bankers who have been csnvaSsing the prospects for the seasons output of gold in the Fairbanks district of Alaska, says the "P.-I," now report that this years cleanup will prob ably reach $5,OOO,OOO, exceeding the earlier estimates by a million and a haIf dollars. The clean-up will com pare fayOrably with those of the past two or three years. There is plenty of water and an abundant sup ply of labor, and by June I there had been cleaned up from the winter dumps sI,OOO.OOo.
 The feature of largest interest in its meaning for the future is that, of the sold output of the Panama camps for this season. something like S5O,- 900 will come from the quartz proper ties upon which stamp mills have been put in. While this amount is small, it is a good beginning. The small mills being put in now are simply for development purposes. If the properties show up anything like as good as the prospects indicate that they will, there will be big mills on all of them.
 There is a reasonable prospect that the hard-rock mines of that section within a few years win be producing as much gold as the pIacers did dur ing the best days of the Panama camps, and the quartz properties are likely to be permanent, while the plaeers may be worked out within a few more years,
 The opening of so many quartz properties in Alaska this year, not only in the interior but in Southwest ern Alaska, is the development which means most to the territory of any in immediate prospect Mills are not being put in. save where there is certainty of some permaReDce, and the number Of producing mines which Alaska win boast by the close of the present season will be far greater than the most saugUine expectations Of a year ago.
