GETTING RID Of MICE
LITTLE PESTS IN A TRAP OF

Housekeeper Hereafter Will
Pin All Her Faith.

Mice always botheS the people VINO
DO light housekeeping more than the
ordinary householder, probably be-
cause the former Is more apt to have
few mouse-tight receptacles for food.
Various traps have been tried by one
couple who indulge In light house
keeping in three-room apartment,
says the Philadelphia Record. Some
times, at large intervals, they man
aged to catch one of the pests. Every
scheme OF batting ard setting traps
which they could find or invent was
tried and the mice continued to eat
everything they could get at, falling
back on diet of clothes when every
bit Of food had been successfully
cached. 81 -
The mice seemed too wise to try the
traps, no matter how fresh and we'll
toasted was the cheese and bacon
rind. The couple was almost in de-
spair, and had nearly decided upon
using poisons, to which. for sanitary
reasons, they had hesitated to resort.
The mice themselves. waxing over
greedy, fell into trap Of their own
setting, and one has been caught
every day or two until now there are
only one or two left, but the happy
housekeepers have great hopes OF
catching them all.
One OF the few provisions which
had not been stored was the sugar,
which is bought In large, rectangu-
lar box, holding five pounds. The
cover was slit little way at one end
and the sugar bowl filled by pouring
from this aperture. The sugar was
left out, because 1t was thought that
mice did not possess sweet tooth.
Then one day when large quantity
Of the boxful had been removed at
one time the woman opened the
closet door, to stand frightened at
some scrambling sounds she heard.
She quickly located them In the box
of sugar and realized what had hap
pened. u
The mice had discovered the sugar
and had been feeding from 1t. gaining
the tiny opening from a shelf beside
which the box stood. She had taken
out SO much sugar that on its last
trip the mouse, in its sudden fright.
could not make the leap which would
carry it through the small hole. The
woman quickly put piece Of sugar
over the opening. and then carried the
box to pail Of water. into which she
shook the mouse.
Several others have trapped them
selves in the same way and the wom-
an declares that when they have eat
en- all the sugar she will rebait the
box with some more, and never. never
spend any more money on patent
traps.

"coms Down Hsre, sIrl"

\ Of young man suddenly appeared at
4 one OF the openings on the second
door. 1t showed for only three sec
onds. but that was long enough to
satisfy the girl that she was looking
1t human being--A young man
whose face might have been interest
Ing but for the look Of fear on It.
THAT chap Is hiding!" whispered
the Kirl to herself, and she felt more
curiosity than fear. y
Bob Andrews had been sheriff Of
Boone county, term after term, and his
wife and daughter had always been
more or less interested In his cases.
Y YES" resumed the girl III he
were not fugitive, he would not be
here. Hasn't the look of a horse thief.
and he is a stranger in this locality.
May have been hiding here for three
or four days, but l haven't heard that
dad is after anyone Just now. He is
probably armed. Wonder what dad
would do II he were here?
For nve long minutes she kept her
eyes on the window. hoping the man
would show his face again, and then
she sprang up with the words:
4 ''Why, i know what dad would do.
He'd go in there and pull the fellow
out and find out all about him. Ill
DO the same!"
without giving herself time to ar
4 que, she walked straight up to the
house and halfway around it to the
porch, and looked In at the doors. A
rotting and dismantled stairway led
up from hallway with little heaps Of
rubbish here and there-desolation on
every hand. 1t was a ghostly place,
even at midday.
Come down here, sir!
The girl stepped into the hall and
called to whomever might be above.
No reply-no movement.
Then shall come up"
With a chill at her heart and every
/. nerve tingling, Polly softly mounted
the shaky old stairs. There was fear
at every step. but she forced herself to
70 upwards. Four bedrooms opened
on the hall, and no doors to any of
them. Tho girl looked into three of
them. and then shivered. The man
must be hiding in the fourth. She
hesitated for only q second and then
advanced. There was no challenge.
Sitting on the floor In corner was
the fugitive. His knees were drawn
up,and his elbows rested on them,
and his face was hidden in his hands.
\ He knew that the girl had come up
and was looking at him, but he kept
his position until she rather impa.

"Well, you have name and q

IF they have come to arrest me-

That's better. Now get grip on your.

Organization OF the Republican state Committee.
with Edmund Mitchell chairman, Magistrate Thomas
g. Lewis secretary, aud A. r. Benson as treasurer,
augurs well for the Republican campaign in this city
this Fall All three astute politicians ana
well qualified hold the important positions which
they have been elected. Major Mitchell is regarded
one OF the shrewdest and ablest Republican leaders
in our State and there is in the organization
who when IL comes to campaign management, is more
feared by the Democratic managers They know that
with him the head Of the committee IL means that
they must fight INCREASINGLY to make any headway
against such shrewd and capable organizer and cam
paigner The very fact that Major Mitchell heads the
fight against them makes such Democratic leaders
Willard Salisbury and Thomas f. Bsyard feel that
their end of the fight lost practically before the strug
gle is begun Past experience has taught them that
they can do nothing effective against Major Mitchell
when he is backed by a strong and militant committee
and the of the State live TO the situation
The selection of the three to direct the cam
pagn also will make for clean election and force the
Democrats to abandon any plans they may have made
to corrupt practices effort to carry the
approaching election.
