French admiral, Abraham Duquesne.
His father was of Boer stock. His uncle
was the famous British foe, General
Pet Joubcrt. Duquesne himself was
brought up TO the profession OF arms
and hatred OF the British. Al the age
of seventeen he already had lived
through several wars with Kafirs, and
through repeated jungle hunts after all
sorts Of wild animals.
He Fought Through Boer War.
Duquesne received technical mill
tary training in Belgium as boy. He
went through several courses in mill
tary engineering. When the British
Boer war broke out the youthful SOL
der went back TO Africa and immc--
diately plunged into the very thick OF
the fighting. He became known as THE
Boy Scout of the Boer War" His ex-
plots even then became marvel for
the youngsters of two worlds. Nearly
killed several times, he received wounds
which will scar his body to his dying
day.
Toward the end Of the war he was
captured in the famous Boer plot to
blow up Cape Town. The British i'm
mediately sentenced him to be shot, but
lust before he was to be executed the
commanding officer bethought himself
that young Duquesne knew the entire
signal code of the Boer army. Accord
ingly he tried 20 bride the young cap
tain with a promise TO commute his
sentence il he should betray the code.
Escaped from Bermuda Prison.
Young Duquesne assented and trans
lated the Boer code for the British-in-
correctly. He did it so cleyerly that the
British believed his betrayal was genu-
inc and sent him of to the Bermudas
| for Imprisonment. From Boaz Island
/ Duuuesne speedily escaped. He sig
nailed two other prisoners by tapping
on their cell floors in the Morse tele-
graphic code, and together they eluded
/ the prison guards and dived into the
sea. One of the prisoners was shot in
the water by guards; the other was
captured after reaching the neighbor-
/ ing island. But Duquesne, subsisting
/ on herbs and plants, escaped detection
until finally he met the daughter of the
/ British island commandant.
This girl fell in love with the fugi-
tive and aided him in his final escape
| from the island. One night Duquesne

Hamilton, found drunken sailor from

REAL ESTATE
GOOD HOTEL IS
Big CITY ASSET
Americas Leading Hostelry
Proprietor Tells How Har-
risburg Will Benefit

What good hotel means to a city,
how a hostelry that satisfies the travel
ing public really benefits the citizens
and why a municipality which boasts
of such an improvement just cannot
be pushed from the nations map of
progress, are interestingly set forth by
George C. Boldt, of the Waldorf Astoria
Hotel Company, of New York. in a let
ter to Realty" New York's greatest
real estate magazine.
Mr.. Boldt is one of the worlds lead
ing hotel men and expresses his views
on the hotel problem in concise way
that is made doubly forcible because 1t
has behind 1T the weight of knowledge
gained by years of experience.
The letter is of particular interest to
Harrisburg citizens just now in view CT
the proposed erection of the capital
city's own million dollar hostelry. Here
Is Mr.. Boldts letter:
| Il could write you columns and
columns of what a good hotel means
to a town were it not for the fact that
IL have consistently refrained from
writing for publication. ] simply want
to say that the benefits town derives
from possessing a good hotel is meal
culable. These may not always appear
| to the careful observer, and the benefits
it's Inhabitants receive may seem some-
what obscure; nevertheless they are
there. For. let 1t be known to the trav-
cling public that a town possess a
good hotel and 1T will not be passed
| by. Every time a stranger stops. if
| only for an hour or two, he leaves
certain amount of money which adds
to the prosperity of it's citizens. Let this
stranger leave the town with Il good
| impression and kindly feeling. and
you have an advertisement which
money cannot buy.

Packing Butter
 For Winter Use

As tested recipe for the preserva- tion of butter, by which it will retain it's sweet flavor twelve months or even longer and have no tendency to become strong, the following method is excel lent: Churn and then wash the butter several times in cold water until en- tirely free from all buttermilk. Drain well and salt to suit the taste. Work the salt well into the butter and put it in a cellar of even temperature or else in the cooler until the next day. Then work it thoroughly again and shape it into cakes the size of. an egg and pat each one of these cakes down in the butter bowl one at a time until thin as a wafer so as to drain off all the water possible which may remain. Then pack in earthen jars, filling each or them within one inch of the top.
 Wiring out a white linen cloth, which has previously been cut around, ill cold clear water Allow this cloth to lap over a little on the jar. On the cloth put an inch layer of fine dairy salt which will come even with the top of the jar. On this place sheet of paraf- fin paper over the salt and seal the jar cover on. Tie brown paper down over it all.
 The jars should be filled and sealel at once. Jars holding two to four pounds are preferable in most in stances, and they should always be : to stand around day or two to add another churning of butter, as the but ter already packed in would begin to get strong, especially if the packing i& done in warm weather.

J. 5: WILL FIGHT
 BREAD PRICE JUMP
Federal Government Plans to
 Prosecute Bakers,

The federal administration is seri ously concerned over the bread sitCa. ton and views with alarm the threat of bakers to increase the price of the loaf.
 Government investigations already are in progress, and 1t Is believed that criminal prosecutions will result if the price of bread actually Is increased and two facts can be established. These are that there is no economic iustifica. ton for the increase and that the ba- kers have acted in association.
 The federal trade commission, through Chairman Edward N. Hurly, has been making an investigation of the eco. homie phase of the question. He Is in Chicago, authorized by the commission to pursue this inquiry as far as he deems necessary.
 The matter has been brought to the attention of the department of justice, and it's agents have been at work on it for some time. What facts have been discovered department of justice off cials will not admit.
 Two natural causes for possible in- crease in the price of bread are seen by some authorities. It was said the great demand for wheat has been for armies, thus lessening the supply of this country. The other cause is the reduction of this years wheat crop. which is said to be approximately 20 per cent less than the 1915 crop.

NEW DISASTER AT
 QUEBEC BRIDGE
Twenty-Five Killed as Span
 Falls Into River.

Twenty-Five men were plunged to their death and many more were SC verely injured when the central span of the big $17,000,00O Quebec bridge over the St. Lawrence river collapsed as 1t was being swung into place. marking what would have been the final work on one of the greatest engi. neering feats in the world.
 Thousands of persons who had gath cred to watch the completion of the bridge. including cabinet, parliament members and engineers, saw the acci- dent. Engineers from practically all parts of the world who were present by special invitation also were wit nesses of the catastrophe.
 The big span. which buckled and then collapsed, weighed 5000 tons. Ii was f1oated down on barges as thou sands in boats of every description and maSsed on shore cheered. Steamboat whistles were footing and the enthusi. aSm of the great crowd was at its height when the accident occurred.
 The span had been heisted but if teen of the 150 feet it had to be lifted Nhtll bllt NOIlleI Ol tue spun WuS Sepll to be higher than the other. The sup porting jack of the lower end then gave way. The span broke in the cen. ter. and with steel girders snapping with reports like rife shots the struc ture plunged into the water.
 Chief Engineer McAIillan was on the central span when it fell and was bad ly injured.
 The bridge was built for the pur- pose of shortening the railway journey across the continent by about 20O miles. It was to be used by eight rail ways-the Canadian Pacific. Grand Trunk, Delaware and Hudson, Interco- lonial, Quebec Central. Quebec and Lake St. John. Quebec and Saguenay and Canadian Northern.
 During the construction period the first cantilever span O. the Quebec bridge over the St Lawrence river col. lapsed on Aug. %, 1907, carrying to death eighty-four workmen. most of them Americans who had been brought there for the work. At that time the middle span of 1,S00 feet had not been started
