The 6uruiar's Umbrella,

Among a collection Of articles used
by burglars when engaged in their ne.
farious calling is one particular con-
~trivance that arouses great interest.
In appearance 1t resembles q large
umbrella that has seen hard service.
1t was formerly the property of a bur-
glar, and 1t was by its means that he
was able to enter the second story of a
building. Removing the cover, a stick
wound with ropes is revealed. The
stick opens like a telescope or q joint
ed fishing rod. Wound round 1t is q
rope ladder made of strong material
and about thirteen feet in length. The
ladder is only wide enough for n
foot to be placed on the rungs. The
extending stick was used to raise one
end of the ladder to the window
through which the operator wished to
enter. and on the upper end of the
ladder are two hooks to be fastened
to the sill. This imitation umbrella is
regarded as one of the most ingenious
affairs ever made use of by a thiee.~s

Wonderful Animalculae,

OF all the minute creatures hat in
habit this globe unseen by the naked
eye there is none so astonishing, ac-
cording to the Scientific American, as
the little living things that live in
stagnant water. They are called slip
per animalculae. or. as the scientist
has it, the paramecium. These tiny,
invisible things develop so rapidly that
if they were able to live through $50
generations they would crowd every
other living thing off the face of the
earth and form a mass larger than the
planet itself. Should they 60 on re-
producing until the nine hundredth
generation these little creatures would
form a mass large enough to crowd
the moon and stars and even the sun
entirely out of space. Luckily for us
this is not possible, according to ma
lures decree. The paramecium dies
after it has attained the me hundred
and SEVENTEEN generation. and so the
awful possibilities are checked Of its
multiplying to fill the universe.

in his pockets and standing before a

The Medicine Bottle.

In order to avert the most serious
thing Of having a child take the wrong
medicine. mothers should adhere to the
following rules:
Never give medicine in the dark.
Always read the label on the bottle.
Never go by the color of the medi.
cine.
When the bottle is refiled see that
the label reads clear.
Keep poisons locked up.
Keep all bottles locked up in a draw
er or medicine chest.
Mistakes of giving children carbolic
acid and such like poisons in the night
time make it imperative that mothers
study and adhere to these rules, for
sometimes such inadvertent mistakes
bring about terrible conclusions Gin

THE CONFEssION A FAKE

Lakota, N. d., Feb. 4th.-The SEN
sational story which was told by
Claude Sperry of Aneta, describing
the manner of the death of Young
Kenneth Mckenzie, as result of
burns charged to Louis Sommerfeld.
has proven fake. The alleged con-
fession, when Sperry was put or the
stand, amounted to nothing, and the
case against Sommerfleld has been
dismissed and he was discharged.
The sperry boy refused to testify as
witness.
Acting on the confession given out
several days ago the state attorney of
Nelson county had Sommerfield ar
rested. The story was that sommer-
field took lantern away from the
Mckenzie boy, poured oil on his
clothes and set fire to him, the boy
eventually died as q result Of his
burns. It is believed that no one is
implicated in the death Of the boy,
which was really caused by accident.

[ by testimony was about 230 feet.
Another witness for the defense
!, was one of the Gatzke children who
testified that her father had threaten
| ed to kill her mother. Mrs. Biggs
was also on the stand short time
i to corroborate the statement of one
of the Gatzke children made some
time previously that her father had
threatened to kill her mother, but
:! her testimony was excluded from the
jury.
Mr.. and Mrs. Pale of Kidder coun-
ty, Friday, testified that Mrs. Gatzke
had told her last spring that she
could not get along with her husband
and when she got to town and could
earn five dollars she intended to buy
revolver and shoot him. Mrs. Gott-
F, lieb Gatzke also testified to hearing
Mrs. Carl Gatzke say substantially
the same.
Arguments Begun
Before arguments were submitted
to the jury, Attorney Buck for the
| defense, moved that the court instruct
the jury to bring in verdict OF not
guilty. on the ground that the state
had failed to show that there was an
intent to kill Carl Gatzke on the
part of his wife, which the law re-
ouires: also that the state had failed
, to show that there was malice or
motive or any connection with the
defendant and the commission of the
crime; that the testimony OF the
, Clausen lady showed the contrary,
and that the height and physical sta
tue of the deceased husband who Was
six feet and two inches tall, together
with the location of the bullets, made
it absolutely impossible for him to
have been shot by his wife.

EXPLORATION OF
MAINE DELAYED
Hulk Of Battleship Filled
With Tarlike Mud.
UPPER WORKS EXPOSED

Water in cofferdam Now Stands at
Ten Feet Below Normal, but Perco-
iation Is Increasing the Depth-No
Important Developments Expected
for Week or More.
Havana, June 19-"No further de-
velopments of importance in connec-
tion with the uncovering of the wreck
OF the battleship Maine are probable
within the next ten or twelve days,
said General w. III. Bixby following
the complete decentralization of the
wreck in launch by the board of
American officers who are supervising
the work. A minute examination was
made of all portions of the ship now
exposed to view.
This survey convinced the board
that before further exploration is pos
sible it will be necessary to remove
masses of mud, aggregating hundreds
of tons, on the spar deck and almost
completely filling the interior spaces
of the i'll fated vessel. The greater
portions of the mud is a tenacious, tar
like mass, extremely difficult of dis
integration and removal and complete
| ly prevents any satisfactory examina-
tion being made.
In many places the mud is five to
| six feet deep and can only be removed
| by the use of streams of water pro-
| jected by the most powerful pumps.
Ten Feet of Water Removed.
/ The water level in the cofferdam
now stands at ten feet below normal,
which is somewhat higher than Sat
urday, owing to a cessation of pump
ing and consequent slight percolation
of water. This leakage will necessi
tate the caulking of some sections OF
the cofferdam.
The board has been much embar
rassed by the enormous number OF
visitors to the wreck who are drawn
there mainly through curiosity and in
terfere seriously with the workmer
and it is probable that access to the
cofferdam will be prohibited to all ex
cept newspaper correspondents.
The principal result of the investi
CATION of the wreck was the discover.
that the deterioration of the stee
structure is so great as gravely to i'm
peril the project of placing bulkhead
in and floating out the rear sections O
the Maine. 1t is impossible, however
to determine positively whether thi
can be done until the water Is furthe
lowered, which probably will be
week hence.
