Double double toll and trouble!

Double double toll and trouble!
Fire burn and caldron bubble"
Nevertheless, the fact remains that
the burning fire, the bubbling caldron
are sources of double trouble to
womenkind. Therefore. they should
rise up and call blessed NJ. Soyer's
system of paper bag cooking, which
has come newly to their help T.
saves the buildings of the caldron.
and thereby the troublings of the
cook. This in many. many ways.
Perhaps the most instantly apparent
one is-the fact that there is no
caldron to be washed or secured when
the flesh is weariest.
So, also, are the roasting pans and
those for frying. likewise the broiler.
Paper bags can do the worl better
and be thrown away when they have
served their turn.
But do not make the mistake of
taking 1t for an accomplished cook.

TO QUARANTINE PLANTS
Insects Cost Billion, Californian Tells
Washington.

Washington, Feb. An important
factor in the high cost of living is the
enormous sum the American govern
ment and the farmer are obliged to
spend every year in fighting plant dis
eases and insect pests, according to
James Mills of Riverside, cal. who as
a representative of the California aor-
ticultural Convention and the Citrus
Growers league, is here in the interest
Of legislation aimed to help these con-
ditions He consulted today with Sec
rotary of Agriculture Wilson. Dr. How
ard of the bureau of entomology and
other department officials who are in
terested in the fight against plant pests
and diseases.
Mr.. Mills declared that the Califor-
mia delegation was solidly behind him
in the effort to keep out the Med1ter-
ranean fly which has reached Hawai-
and is threatening California.
MANY pests are already here, viz
tuaIIy all having come from fifteen
countries said Mr.. Mills. THE gov
eminent should take steps to see that
we do not import any more Of these
diseases which cost US millions-yes
I'll say a billion-in our efforts to eX-
terminate them and in the losses from
fruit and plant destruction. We have
a good quarantine line by which we
can keep out diseased animals; we
have none that will keep out diseased
nIanfs and insect pests.

SPOTS ARE BLOOD
Today VIII Tell Whether OF
Not 1t Is Human.
Hedges Warrant Issued-De-
clines to Sign Statement.

Kansas City. Feb. THE spots upon
the tail of the overcoat of Charles
He'd ges. charged with the murder of
Mrs. Lucetta Dorset, the Kansas City.
Kan, dwarf, are blood, according to
DR.. William x. Trimble, pathologist at
the Kansas University Medical college
at Rosedale. He said there is no doubt
but that the spots are blood, but wheth-
er or not human blood can be determin-
ed only by test that will require an
other day.
The overcoat which is being examined
was found last Saturday rolled in
small bundle at the back OF Hedges
shop. Thomas Mansen detective,
noticed that Hedges did not wear an
ovcrcoat Friday, when the body of Mrs.
Dorset, with the head crushed, was
found in her bed.
A search was made for the coat, in
the expectation that it might offer a
clew. When it was found the cuffs had
been cut from both sleeves and the
right sleeve showed that it had been
washed
A warrant charging Hedges with the
murder of Mrs. DOrsett was issued
The complaint was sworn to by J. J.
Lewallen. The warrant was not served
and Hedges remained at police head
quarters where he has been held since
Friday night.
Finger Prints Are Found
The police and county officials did
not know the warrant was to be issued
and Chief thinner said he understood
the action as a move on the part of
Hedges attorneys to get him from the
custody of the police.
A stove poker with which the murder
is believed to have been committed,
and blood stains upon the wash pan in
which the murderer washed his hands
in the kitchen, are new clews.
When the body was found Friday it
was the opinion Of Coroner Tenney
that Mrs Dorset had been slain with
stove poker, heavy file or some such
instrument. The poker was found
thrust in the ashes in the heating stove
handle first. It evidently had been
placed there while there were Goals.
but despite the heat. spots. either of
rust or blood, remained on the heavier
end.
The wash basin found in the kitchen
again was examined and it was found
to bear fingcrprints which will be ex-
amined by an expert. with view to
Identification 1t is believed that they
will be more valuable than those on
the pillow beneath Mrs Dorsett's head.
These were useless
Hedges was questioned again. but
denied knowledge of the poker. He
had made a statement to the police
regarding his movements during the
last week, but refused to sign it. He
admitted to the police last night that
he had gone home Wednesday in the
middle of the afternoon and had chang
ed his undertaking and shoes.

PROTEST GAS BILL
City Commissioner to Go Be-
fore Utilities Commission.
VIII Ask That January Charges
Be Investigated at Once.
GIVE RECEIPTS TO THE MAYOR
Consumers Asked to Tell Bill
lard Their Gas Troubles.
NIayor. Then. VIII File All
Complaints With State.

Recognizing the possible injustice in
the gas bills sent out by the Consum-
ers Light, Heat & Power company for
the month of January, the city of To-
peka viii take the matter before the
state public utilities commission i'm
mediately. All persons in the city
who believe that their gas bills for
January were too high will pay them
under protest, send the receipts to
Mayor Billiard and the mayor will
place the papers in the hands of the
utilities board.
The city commissioners realize that
It is too late to hold UP many of the
gas bills for January as hundreds OF
them have been paid. But if everyone
who has a bill not paid viii make the
payment under protest and give their
amounts together with a statement as
to the normal cost in other years the
mayor will attempt to bring about an
expert investigation on the TOW OF gas
in the low pressude month.
It is believed by the city commits
sioners after suggestion from COM
missioner Miller that this investigation
Will settle the eternal squabble be-
tween the gas consumers and the gas
company. If necessary thorough eX-
animation of the working of a gas
meter under high and low pressure
Will be made Everything will be done
to relieve the gas situation.
For the last ten days the city Off
Gals have been answering telephone
calls, reading complaints and engaging
in street arguments with enraged gas
consumers who declare that the bills
for January were unreasonable and
unfair. They claim that they were
the highest in history despite the fact
that the gas was low during the entire
month and at no time could it be de-
pended upon for heat
Consumers say that the coal bills
for January we're higher than ever At
that it took more gas to do the cook
ing and the water heating. The com
plants have been coming daily and
the commissioners felt that some ac-
ton was necessary.
The city officers do not believe that
they are able to stop the payment of
bills. This would make it necessary
for the consumers to pay the penalty
in case the decision of the public
utilities commission was against them.
In order to obtain the advantages of
the rebate for payment before the
tenth of the month and still cling to
a chance for a further rebate on ac-
count of the low pressure and the
meter errors, the commissioners decid-
ed that the bills should be paid under
protest and filed with the mayor for
further decision.
I'VE want to make a test of this
gas proposition" Commissioner Miller
said this afternoon "Other cities are
trying it and Topeka feels that the
gas bills for January have been too
high
