After a brief recess, it seems
that the house breaking nuisance
has started anew. The home of
Mr.. J. w. Scarborough on South
Main street was entered last
night and the thief got away with
ffty-fve dollars in currency.
Mr.. Scarborough states that the
man was in his room and was
standing over by his bureau,
where lay his pistol, his watch
his trousers were hanging on i t.

for the burglar to turn his back so
he could get to his gun, but that
Internationally he moved, where
upon the intruder snatched his
trousers from the dresser and
started to run. Mr.. Scarborough
grabbed his pistol and pursued
him down the stairs. He got two
shots at him while the burglar
was making to the back door and
followed him to the alley, where
he t)ok three more cracks at him
missing him all three times.
Having no more shells in his gun,
and as the thief had a consider
able Roadway, Mr.. Scarborough
gave up the chase. The burg
larry occurred about 8 o'clock this
morning. After getting some
clothing Mr.. Scarborough contin-
ed to look for the thief until day.
light, but the only traces ne could

detectives, told today OF robbing
some of the biggest stores in New
York, Philadelphia, Pittsburg,
Cleveland, Detroit and Chicago.
according to States Attorney
Wayman. Although only Il years
old, the woman is said to have
compressed into two years more
daring exploits than occur to the

Mrs. Wilbur was arrested as she

There are people, and those who
the impression that laundry work is
merely a matter of muscle, and that
any one with the physical strength and
little intelligence will make a good
laundress. There was never a more
mistaken idea. as we have learned by
sad experience.
A successful laundress must be an
educated woman, something OF a
chemist, a good fair amount Of iudg-
ment and a conscientious, painstaking
worker.
There is knowledge to be used in
the choice of soar and starches, in the
removing of spots and stains.
To do the right kind of laundry
work it is necessary to know how to
wash the most delicate colors with
out fading them.
Most colors may be retained by q
salt or vinegar bath, a tablespoonful
to a quart of water. A general rule
is to immerse all light colors in salt
water and dark colors in vinegar.
Blue is a delicate color, yet any
shade may be permanently fixed BY be-
ing soaked before it is Numbered for
half an hour in eight or ten quarts Of
water in which is dissolved an n
Of sugar of lead.
Green is another frail color; a lump
of alum in the rinse water will set
this color.
There are three important things TO
consider in washing colored clothes.

color. First, they should eve be
washed in boiling hot water; second,
soa should never he rubbed on, but

should always be dried as quickly as
possible in the shade and ironed.
when possible, before they are quite
dry. and on the wrong side.
If a garment is only slightly soiled.
the rubbing and sousing in the soapy
water will cleanse it, then the rinsing
should be very thorough. The whole
process should be done as quickly as
possible.
The most careful washer may ruin
the result of her work by careless
ironing.
To be a good ironer means much
practice and infinite patience.

. The Higher Vision.

Ir the love of the temporal that
threatens to crowd out spiritual ca,
pacities, and the sense of a life to
come. it is something to know that
the Gospel of Jesus lifted the vision
higher. that he ennobled this world
with the glory of the next, that he
made time eternal and gave the duties
and the responsibilities of time the
significance and the determining value
of eternity: If he had not unsealed
his sepulcher, If he had given the
world an example and denied it the
principle through which personal holi
ness is attainable, he would have left
the mystery of life as insoluble as II
had been before his coming, and hui
manity would have continued its
weary tread-mill Of defeat without
consolation or hope of final victory
The heart of the great Christian WORLD
beats high with hope and rejoices in
the assurance of eternal life pro
claimed in the message Christ is
risen"
