Steals Wife;
Loses Nerve

An episode which involved the hap
piness of a family was unearthed FRI
day when C. F. Splitter of Altman, o.,
accompanied by his father and Sheriff
Young, appeared at 3O3 West Liberty
street and found Spitler's wife and
David Morrison, and the formers
three-year-old daughter. 49,.
The circumstances as related by the
husband and corroberated by the wife
are as follows: Morrison, up to three
weeks ago, was employed by the B. &
o. R. R. at Altman, o., the home of
the Spitlers. Morrison engaged board
and room at the Splitter home. Spit
ler's employment kept him from home
a large part of the day and night.
According to the wife's own confession
left in letter to her husband on the
morning of her departure, she admit
ted having been intimate with Nor
rison repeatedly and that the remorse
of her misconduct had SO haunted her
that she felt she could no longer en-
dure it.
The morning of the wife's depart
ure, according to the husband, the
latter had written his wife check for
SIS. She went Immediately to the
bank of New Berlin and, according to
the father-in-law, A. F. Splitter, raised
the check to $45.
Morrison succeeded Mr.. Lefferty,
who has been an efficient assistant at
the B. &. O. office here for the past
year or more.
Through a woman friend, to whom
Mrs. Splitter had written urging that
she also leave home, the whereabouts
of Mrs, Splitter was ascertained by her
husband. The latter with his father
arrived in Medina Friday noon. Short
ly after, as has been stated, the two
abovenamed gentlemen, accompanied
by Sheriff Young, rescued the little
girl from the house at 303 West Lib
erty street, where Mrs. Splitter and
her paramour were stopping. Both
admitted their guilt. The husband
took the little girl, whereupon the
mother instinct asserted itself and the
wife broke down under the strain.
Through the advice of the sheriff
and disposition upon the part Of the
husband to safeguard the future SEN
sibilities of his children, he offered his
wife the privilege of returning to hi
home. She gladly accepted. Both
accompanied by the elder Splitter and
the three year-old daughter, re-
turned to Altman Friday afternoon.
Mrs. Splitter is a propossessing
young woman and attributes much of
her trouble to incompatibility with her
parents-in-law. Of course her con-
duct can scarcely be reconciled with
the established ethics of society. Nor
rison, when confronted by the hus-
band, is .a'd to have withered like a
leaf, looking in sixteen different direc-
tions for Sunday.
While wondering what to do next,
Morrison swung onto the 5:36 train
south on the B. &. O. passenger train,
Friday night, and went out into the
night.

Silk Mill Foreman Goes Insane Over
Death of Daughter

Easton. April 2S.-Maurice Will
liams, aged SO, silk mill foreman,
was committed to the State hospital
at Rittersville yesterday, after an ex-
animation by alienists. Several weeks
ago Williams lost little daughter, to
whom he was deeply attached by diph-
liberia. Since then he had been melan-
choly each night, wandering through
the house and calling on the child to
return.
Wednesday night he became violent,
procured a revolver and announcing
that he would end it all, shot at his
wife. The bullet missed and Williams
was overpowered by neighbors.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
PLEASE describe correct way of mix
ing ingredients in butter cakes: does
1t make difference in results if every.
thing is mixed together if the batter is
well beaten?"-Student.
Reply.-The proper way of combin.
ing cake materials is to cream the but.
ter, add the sugar to it and cream them
together. Add beaten eggs next, but
only the yolks. Beat the whites of the
eggs separately then sift -four, baking
powder and salt together and add to
the butter and the sugar with the
whites of the eggs, putting in a little
of one and then little of the other,
beating all the time. The favoring may
be added to the first part of TIL mixture
or be put in with the whites of the
eggs.
If any readers have suggestions to
add to this plan we will be pleased to
publish them.

1t is good plan for anyone TO know
what they are trying to achieve and
to have standard to measure by The
following score points are from the
same source as those given yesterday
for cake and bread.
Cookies, cruller and small cakes:
Flavor, So. 40 points
Ihghtness, .............. 10 points
texture, 20 points
Appearance, ............ 20 points
The appearance of these cakes in
cludes form, size, baking, additions of
icing and decorations. The crullers and
cookies must be free from all suspicion
of greasiness, and be uniform in size.
Some judges insist that cookies be
accompanied by the recipe from which
they are concocted as the ingredients
so greatly affect the color and texture
that injustice is sometimes done. For
instance cookies made with soft, light
brown sugar are sweeter and richer than
those of more expensive sugar and are
really more deserving of credit but the
winter ones often carry off the prize
All these things must be discussed
by those who are to judge and be de-
cided upon before the contest is opened.

BENEFIT OF GOOD HIGHWAYS
Main Market Roads Reach Majority Of
Producing Areas and When Inn
proved Land Values Increase.

The bodybuilding specialists Of the
United States department OF agricul-
ture in bulletin No. 1876, entitled
Highway Bonds" have the following
to say about the benefit of well-con-
structed highway to property owners
whose property is not directly on the
road to be improved:
In planning the highway system or
the main market roads 1t will be found
necessary to omit many roads the i'm
provement of which is greatly desired
by abutting landowners. The fact that
such property holders must pay tax
for the bond issue is only an apparent
injustice, for If the highway system
is we'll planned the entire county will
feel the benefits of the improvement.
AS a rule, main market roads reach
the majority of producing areas, and
when they are improved all land val
ues tend to increase.
The fact that cities and larger
towns are frequently taxed for bond
issues to build highways outside Of
their own limits is sometimes made

AGE FOR FATTENING cAPoNS
Give Them All They Will Stuff of
cornmeaI and MiddIings-Fur-
nish Supply Of Grit.

Capons should reach full size be-
fore fattening, and this should be
when they are from ten TO twelve
months old. Fatten them from two to
three weeks before marketing-two if
they are shut up in dark coops. Feed
them all they will stuff Of cornmeal
and middlings, wet up, but not too
wet, with milk
Cracked bits of glass are used as
an aid to digestion. but good grit is
safest where the ground stun is used.
Grit of some kind they must have.
The farmer who does not keep over
a lot OF male birds as capons will lose
a big spring profit on fowls. as turkeys
do not at any time sell as high as
capOns per pound.

GIVING CHICKENS SKIM MILK
Fowls Given Grain Ration Supple
nented With Meat Scraps.


According to general opinion of
many who have given the matter
much attention, the value of skim
milk to laying hens is from 20 cents
10 S215 per hundred pounds. The latter
figure is evidently a little optimistic
According to experiments conducted
by the Indiana experiment station,
51.73 was returned per hundred
pounds Of skim milk purchased at 80
cents These experiments covered
period of two years; one pen of laying
hens received corn, wheat, oats, bran
and shorts in the same proportion, in
addition to all the skim milk the fowls
would drink, and another pen received
only the grain portion Of the ration
that the former received. In averaging
the results obtained from feeding
these rations through two years of eX-
periments it has been shown that the
average member Of eggs laid per hen
receiving grain and skim milk was
1885 eggs, whereas the hens that did
not receive skim milk with the grain
ration produced an average of only SO
eggs per hen. It was also shown that
during the winter months, December,
January and February, when eggs are
the highest in price, that the pen re-
sewing skim milk produced seven per
cent more eggs even than the pen re-
ceiving a grain ration supplemented
with meat scraps, a feed generally
recognized as a great egg producer.

loint of debate in bond elections. 1t
is argued that because large part of
the county wealth is within the cor
porate limit of such cities and towns
highway bond money should also be
used to construct their streets. 1t is
even urged that the expenditure
should be made proportionate to the
assessed valuation within the city linn
it's If the proceeds of highway bond
issues were distributed in this way,
their purpose in many cases would
be defeated. The primary object of
the county highway bond issue is to
build county market roads and not
to improve city streets, although a
high percentage of the assessed valu-
alton may be city property II is now
known that the expenditure OF city
taxes on county roads is a sound prin-
ciple and that 1t is one of the best
features of state aid for highways.
In Massachusetts the city of Boston
pays possibly 40 per cent of the to-
tai state highway fund, but not
mile Of state-aid highway has been
built within it's limits. New York city
also pays about 60 per cent of the
cost of the state highway bonds. Some
state laws prohibit the expenditure OF
proceeds of state highway bonds with
In corporate limits of cities or towns.
The improvement of market roads
results in improved marketing condi-
tions, which benefit the city. Most
cities are essentially dependent upon
the surrounding country for their pros
perity and development. The devel-
opment of suburban property for res
idence purposes is also dependent
upon highway conditions, and 1t is
becoming evident yearly that what
ever makes for an increase In rural
population must be encouraged. Since
the introduction of motor traffic coun-
try highways are used to an increas-
ing extent by city residents. In fact,
the cost Of maintaining many country
highways has been greatly Increased
by the presence of city-owned motor
vehicles. The general advance in IA
cilhies for doing country business
from town headquarters when roads
are improved is no inconsiderable fac
tor in the commercial life OF the com
munity.
