and burglarized the depot of
the M. r. & B. 7. Ry. where
they succeeded in getting about
400 pennies and a quantity of
Ry. tickets, which it is presum-
ed they intended to use as a
means of transportation in con-
tinuing of their Wild West es-
capade.
From Flat River they went to
Desloge and took two horses
from the barn of the Golf Mer-
camille Co. and rode away to the
westward under the silent cover
of night, in regular Jesse James
fashion. When they neared
Big River bridge, not far from
Bonne Terre, they were halted,
unexpectedly, by Deputy Sher-
iff Sam Doss of Desloge, who
took them into custody and re-
turned them to the county bas-
tile about $3.50 a. m. next morn
ing.
When Sheriff Williams dis
covered that the prisoners hac
broken jail and gone he at once
telephoned Doss at Desloge Of
the fact, and to watch for them
so Deputy Doss decided that a
this point he could intercep
them, which he did.

Last Saturday night Sterling
Stegall and William Carver, whol
were being held for the Novem-
ber term of Circuit Court, on al
charge of breaking into the
Wells Bros Mercantile Co. store
at Bonne Terre about three
weeks ago, broke out of jail
here and enjoyed unrestrained
liberty for the space of 6 or 8
hours. They entered the above
store, burglarized it and fled to
Mine La Motto, where they were
held by Marshall Cayce until
the officers here could go and
bring them here to answer the
charge, whereupon they were
bound over to await the action
of the Circuit Court.
In some way they managed to
use a piece of a bedstead with
which they succeeded in fore
ing the window guards of one
of the windows of the general
retention room in the jail far
enough apart that they could
pass through and escaped.
They at once proceeded tc
Esther where they broke into
the depot of the Illinois South
ern Ry., taking several tickets
and a few pennies in money and
meeting with no resistance

So-called fireless cooking has not yet
met with its deserved popularity on
this side Of the ocean. Some say it is
because fuel is cheaper here and there
is not the same incentive to save. 9th
ers say our women will not take the
trouble to cook by thermometer, and
fireless cooking cannot be done sue
cessfully except by the aid of this in
strument.
But the chief objection lodged
against this automatic cook by those
who have used it is this: That upon
opening the cooker after it's work has
been done, most unsavory odor is
given out from the vessels in which
the food has been cooked, and that
sometimes there is resulting metal
lie flavor to the food. One experience
such as this would of course prejudice
the housewife against the cooker.
However, this criticism seems to be
due to the use of metal vessels in the

OLD FoRT MEAN CRY.

o. s. Harrison, In an article about
IN old fort near Richmond. reccunts
many incidents Of interest. He obtain
ed % he vritAs. much Of his material
from an article by w. e. Smith, .
defendant OF George Smith. Mr.. Har-
rison,s article will be published in
three parts. The first is appended.
After the battle OF Tippecanoe. %
vember Z, 1871. and the Indians had
BEEN compelled to yield to the supe.
rior force under General Harrison, they
were more vindictive toward the white
settlers than ever. Subdued by force
of arms, but not conquered, the In
dams Of the west readily Joined the
British when . declaration of war was
made against Great Britain In 1912,
The whites feared that the Indians
would rise against them with renewed
energy, and after consulting among
themselves they concluded to build
some forts with blockhouses for their
protection. Several families In q
neighborhood Joined together at vari'
Gus points throughout the settlements
and assisted each other in erecting
them.
Mrs. Rehecca Julian relates her fears
in . vivid manner, which only relates
the feelings Of all others in those ex
citing times. We were in fine spirits
until the battle was fought at Tippe'
canoe by General Harrison and the In
dams. After that we lived In conttn
ual fear and passed many sleepless
nights. Well do recollect how
kept my head raised off my pillow, In
listening, expecting the sayages to
come and take our scalps.
The forts consisted of two rows
sometimes nne-of split timbers twelve
to fourteen feet long, planted In the
ground from two and one-half to three
feet deep. The timbers Of the second
row were so placed to cover the cracks
of the first Small cabins were erect
ed within these stockades to accom-
modate the families while they re.
NAMED here.
The location of one of these forts
is we'll authenticated near Richmond
west of the river, about one mile and a
half west and north of where the court
house now stands, on the place now
occupied by Nathan p. Wilson, and
near where his house stands. Former
ly the road that now runs consider
ably south of the house veered to the
north and passed near to the front OF
the house. A. few traces remain OF
the old road. The first settler on this
farm was George Smith. He was born
January 81, 1777, and died July IL,
1867, at the house of his youngest son
In the city OF Indianapolis. The place
Of his nativity was Union. Distxf4
South Carolina. His ancestors were Of
the purest Anglo-Saxon blood. Their
distinctive religious faith was that OF

the financial interests TO lose their heads and to
embark their clients at one and the same time

Less speculation and more certainty. fewer
chances of loss and greater safety smaller risks,
even if less profits, may not appeal to the judg

these cannot do much harm to themselves or the
country unless the financial interests give way to
the craze and allow it the right of way to the
cash Of the financial institutions.

Of this country are affected.
To use the putting out Of such loan as an
influence to whirl up the prices of so-called war
orders stock to produce delirious speculation in
those shares is simply building upon sands as
treacherous as those of the Goodwin Shoals.
Conservative interests throughout the coun-
try, and especially in the Eastern cities, where
the dangerous speculation is most apparent, are
becoming very uneasy at the extension OF this
wild craze to deal in specialties, the values of
which are so unstable, erratic and In some in

cooker and is not due to any actual
defect in the cooking process. When
one considers that food in the fireless
cooker ia frequently left standing for
ten hours and sometimes more it is
not hard to understand the odors and
tastes that may result.
There is a noticeable trend among
manufacturers now, however to re
place the metal utensils with enamel.
ed ware vessels in which foods OF
any kind, even the most acidulous
may stand indefinitely without danger
of contamination or any succeeding

remove the disagreeable features of

near future we may see the automatic

homes.

War Stock Speculation

The danger Of continued speculation in So
called war stocks is voiced in the following edi-
torial in the Cincinnati Enquirer:
With record-breaking days in the stock ex-
changes Of the country upon shares OF the So
called war orders companies there is very strong
evidence that the speculative spirit of the coun-
try is aroused as it has not been for years, and
unless it is curbed by men of conservative nature
and financial power some serious financial losses
will soon be piled up by the operators or the in
vestors or both.
There Is abundant room for speculative profits
at this time in the shares of standard and sue
cessful industrial corporations that will be profit
able whether peace or war maintains, and there
is ample reason to believe that the shares of our
railways are about to score handsome advance,
based upon large net earnings made possible
through able management of those in charge of
the railways and by the vastly improved business
conditions in this country.
It is time to avoid rashness, to cultivate pru-
dence. to insist upon COOL calm judgment in
