TAR WEAKENS ROPE

Rope is often tarred to protect it
what doubtful practice, as the acid in
the tar weakens the rope to such an
extent that engineers estimate tarred
rope to be only two-thirds as strong
as clean, new rope.
No kind Of oil or other preparation
has so far been found that will not
injure the rope, except tallow. Tai
low and graphite are used in making
transmission rope, and for lubricatine
it when in use.-J. NJ. Drew, Univer

SUICIDE PACT FATAL TO ONE
st. Paul Man Wounds Bride and Kills
Himself.

Himself.
]. J. Curl, twenty-seven years old,
who had recently made his home in
St. Paul while employed as time
keeper for the Cook Construction
company, shot and seriously wounded
his bride of a day, who was formerly
Miss Margaret Logan of Kansas City,
Mo-, in their room at the Boardman
hotel, and then turned the revolver
on himself and inflicted a wound from
which he died few hours later at the
city hospital.
The suicide and probable murder
followed al agreement made by the
husband and wife to die together
rather than face unhappiness and dis
grace.
The bride had arrived from her
home Thursday to be married, but
found her affianced husband in cell
accused of forgery. Refusing to be-
lieve him guilty she married him.

BED BUGS

At this time Of the. year the careful
housewife is taking special precau.
tions against bed bugs. The badly in
tested house may be fumigated with
hydrocyanic acid gas. This treat
ment is very deadly to all insect life
but is SO complicated and so danger
Gus to human beings, that a simpler
method is usually used.
A good mixture for application to
the haunts Of the bugs is:
Corrosive sublimate, ounce.
Alchohol, u pint.
Turpentine, N pint.
Mix thoroughly and apply two or
more times as needed.-Division OF

The county macadam road from the city limits to the old fair ground site is fast becoming a bad piece of roadway, all for lack of necessary repairing in the way of a surface coating of fine rock. In many cities maca- dm roadWays are repaired and made new by running over a heavy roller set with spikes that tear loose the whole surface of the roadway and thus allow an additional coat of fine rock or screenings to form a binding top. There is no mile of road in Jack son county, which serves as many people, and the expense in- cured in building a macadam
 roadway is too great to allow it ruin to continue, when small re- pair work now will put it in first class condition.
