CURIOUS TOBACCO PIPE.BoRER

Travellers among the Sioux In
dians are very much impressed with
the perfect smoothness of the bore
in their pipe-stems. Without the
use of tool of any kind, they make
perfect bore in the twigs of ash
trees, which they use for musical in
struments and for pipes. To accom-
plish this end, they employ the larva
of butterfly which inhabits the ash
tree. The Indians remove the pitch
for about three inches from the stick
they wish bored. Into this cavity they
place one of the larvae of a brown
butterfly, which gradually eats it's way
down through the pith until the bore
is completed, a little heat applied to
the wood eXpedites the work of the
larvae. The Indians consider both the
tube made in this way and the larvo
as sacred as their idols. - Popular

IN THOSE STATES
With a "Sense of Gratifica-
ton and Entire Con-
fidence"

Batavia, n. V. Nov 3.-Charles f
Hughes declared Yesterday before an au'
dience here. that he is entirely confident
of the result both in Ohio and Indiana.
Il have returned from trip through
Ohio and Indiana" he said, with pro-
found sense of qualification and entire
confidence with respect to the result In
both states.
"In both Ohio and Indiana it is not
exaggerating to say that had receptions
which perhaps exceeded those accorded
any other presidential candidate.
"That was, of course, as / said last
night, not tribute to me personally, but
| it was an indication of the deep interest
the people are taking in the essential
conditions of their prosperity and their
satisfaction that there is a great, re-
united Republican party ready for service
at this critical time.
$50 far as promises go, no one can ex-
coed the promises of our opponents, but
we measure what they say by what they
have done"
Mr.. Hughes assailed the Democratic
party for failure to reduce the high cost
of living, as promised four years ago"
and for extravaganza.
"They tell us now" he continued chat
they are going to deal with economic
problems that confront us at this time in
satisfactory manners but if we endeav-
or to ascertain by what principle they
are to be guided we look in vain. ! pro-
pose to tell you by what principles we
shall be guided"
Mr.. Hughes then reiterated the policies
which he intends to follow if elected.
His special was three-quarters OF an hour
late in reaching here and consequently his
stay in Batavia was shortened.
Yesterday was the nominees last day
but one of campaigning and he was APP
parently in excellent trim. To-day the

Wednesday night. Miss Brown was the
lsyear- old girl whose body was found
in Carpenters creek by fishermen on the
night OF Oct. Is. Williams is 40 years
old. He has a wife and four children.
Until his confession Wednesday night
County Detectives McCabe. Connolly and
Moyles and Asst. Dist. Atty. Schwartz
kopf had no evidence other than circlm-
stantial against Williams. There were
no witnesses to the crime.
Discovery of the fact that Williams
had taken mink's head from Miss
Browns furs and given it to Miss Lula
Konosky led to his being suspected. The
fact that puzzled detectives for some
time. however, was that Miss konosky
said Williams came to her home with the
bit of fur at o'clock in the afternoon,
which was four hours before Miss
Browns body was found in Carpenters
creek.
His face haggard with the long nervous
strain, Williams related the story of his
deed haltingly.
Il met her alone, near the creek he
said. 81 didn't mean TO hurt her, but she
