that sho would not lot her out of her

At midnight tho hohso was fairly

couldn't sloop, I got up at last and

into AuBlna's room closed Boftly
aa I DAiMedr
I knew -beforehand that I -was not
.going te Wife. The Instant I turned
out the light tho nightmare ovonts of
the eyealng ranged themselves In a
procession, or a series of tableaux, one
after the other: Flannlarim nn fli
iroof, with the Dracolet on hla palm,
looking acouslngly at mo; Mr. Harbl
sob and tho scene on tho roof, with
y flippancy; and tho result of that
ilppaftcy tho man on tho etnlra, tho
arma that held tno, tho torrlblo kisses
tUat had (wovched tny lips it, was nw
jfull And then tho absurd ultuatlon,
across Aunt Sollnn's bod, and Holla b
fncol Oil, It was nil bo ridiculous my
having thought tlmt tho Harbison man
was a gentleman, and finding him n
cad, und worso. It wns excruciatingly
funny. I qulto got a hoadacho from
laughing; Indcod I laughed until I
found I was crying, and then I know I
wnB going to havo an attack of
Btrangulated emotion, called hysteria.
So I got up and turned on nil tho
lights, and bathed my faco with
co-is.
logno, and felt better.
Hut I did not go to sloop. When
tho hall clock chimed two, I discover
ed I was hungry; I had had nothing
slnco luncheon, and oven tho thirst
following tho South American goulash
was gono. Thero was probably some
thing to cat In tho pantry, and If thero
was not, I was qulto equal to going
to tho basement.
As It happened, howevor, I found a
very orderly assortment of left-overs
and a pltchor of milk, which had no
business thoro, In tho pantry, and
with plenty of light I was not at all
frightened.
I ato bread and butter and drank
milk, nnd was fast becoming a ra
tional person again; I had pulled out
ono of tho drawers part way, and
with n tray ncross tho corner I had
Improvised a comfortablo Beat. And
then I noticed that tho drawer was
full of soiled napkins, nnd I romembor
cd tho bracelot. I hardly know why 1
decldo-t to go through tho drawer
again after Flunnlgan had already dono
It, but I did. I finished my milk and
then, getting down on my knees, I
proceeded systematically to empty tho
drawer, I took out porhapB n dor.cn
nnpklno nnd as many dollies without
finding anything. Thon I took out a
largo tray cloth, and thoro was some
thing on It that mado mo look farther.
Ono corner of It had boon scorched,
tho clear and well-dotlned Imprint of n
lighted ctgarotto or cigar, a blackened
streak that trailed off Into u brown
nnd yollow. I had a queer, trombly
fooling, fiB If I woro on tho brink of n
dlBcovory- perhaps Anno's pearls, or
tho cuff buttons with storks painted
an china In tho contor. Hut tho only
thing I found, down In tho cornor of
tho drawer, was a half-burnod clga
rctto. To mo, It soomcd quite enough. It
was ono of tho South American ciga
rettes, with n tobacco wrapper lnstond
of papor, that Mr. Harbison Binokcd.

from oxcltomcnt, I suppose. Anyhow,
I did not get up, and thero wasn't

"That's tho question of tho ngqa," I
replied languidly. "What -was Max

nt
tho quarantined houso of James
Wilson, artist and clubman, on Nine
ty-fifth street, reported this morning
a daring attempt .nt oscapo, mado at
3 a. m. It la In tins houso that aomo
eight or nlno mombers of tho smart
set wcro Imprisoned during the course
of a dlnnor party, when tho Japanese
butler developed smallpox. Tho party
shut In tho Iioubo Includes Miss Kath
crlno McNalr, tho daughter of Theo
doro McNalr of tho Inter-Ocean sys
tem; Mr. nnd Mrs. Dallas Ilrown, tho
MIbscs Mercer, Maxwell Reed, tho
well-known clubman and whip, and a
Mr. Thomns Harbison, guest of tho
Dallas Drowns and a South American.
"'Offlcor McCloud'n story, told to a
Chronlclo reporter this morning, Is nn
follows: The occupants of tho houso
had boon uneasy all day. From tho
air of Bubdued bustle, and from n caro-
ful Inspection of tho roof, made by the
ontlro party during tho afternoon, his
suspicion had boon, aroused. Nothing
unusual, howavor, occurred during tho
early part of tho night. From eight
o'clock to twolvo McCloud was ro
Hefted from duty,, his placo bolng
taken by Mlchaol Shauo of tho Eighty
sixth street station.
" 'Whon McCloud enmo on duty nt
midnight, Shano reported that about
11 o'clock tho searchlight of a stoamor
on tho river, flashing over tho houso,
had shown a man crouching on tho
parnpot, evidently surveying tho roof
acroBS, which nt this point Is only 12
fcot distant, with a view of making
his oscnpo. On Booing Shano bolow,
howevor, ho had beat n rotrcat, but
not boforo tho offlcor had seen him
distinctly. Ho was dressed In ovonlng
clothos nnd woro a light tan over
cent.
" 'Ofllcor McCloud rollovcd Shano at
midnight, and sont for a plain-clothes
man from tho station houso. This man
was stationed on tho roof of tho Bov
lngton rosldonco next door, with Btrlct
injunctions to provent an oscapo from
tho quarantined manBlon. Nothing
Busnlclous havlnc occurred, tho man
on tho roof loft about 3 n. m report
ing to McCloud bolow thnt ovorythlng
was qulot. At that moment, glancing
skywnrd, ono of tho odlcors wns ns
tounded to sco a long narrow board
project Itself from tho coping of tho
Wilson houso, wavor uncertainly for'
a momont, nnd thon advanco stealth
ily toward tho parnpot across. Whon
It was within a foot or two of n rest
ing place, McCloud called sharply to
tho invisible refug'oo nbovo, at tho
Bamo tlmo firing his revolver lu the
ground.
"'Tho result waa surprising. Tho
board stopped, trembled, swayed n llt
tlo. and dropped, mUalng tho vigilant
offlcor by a hair's breadth, and crash
ing to tho comont with a torrlfla forco.
An Inspection of tho roof from the
Bovlngton houso, later, revealed noth
ing unusual. It Is ovldcnt, however,
that tho quarantlno is proving lrksomo
to1 tho Inhabitants of tho Boquestorcd,
rosldonco, most of whom nro typical
Bocloty folk, without resources In
thomBolvcB. Tholr condition, without
vnlots and maids, is certainly pitiable.
It haB been rumored that tho ladles
aro doing their own hair, nnd that tho
gentlemen havo been rcducod to put
ting tholr own buttons in their shirts.
This doplorablo situation, however, Is
uuavoldablo.
"'Tho vlgllanco of tho board of
hoalth has boon most commondablo In
thlsvcase. Beginning with a wngor
over tho tolophono that thoy would

lng with tho attempt to span a 12-foot
gulf with a board, over which to cross
to frocdom, thoso shut-In society folk

Skim Milk.
Many pooplo have an idea that
skimmed milk is only fit for the
chickens or pigs, when-even aftor tho
avorago milk Is skimmed It still con
tains nearly ten por cent of solids or

Taken by Itsolf, ektm milk Is rathor
thin, and ono has to drink a large
quantity to got tho necessary nourish
ment A pound of round steak con
tains 0.18 pound of protein and has a
fuol valuo of 870 calories. Ftyo
pounds of milk, or two And a half
quarts, will furnish nearly the same
amount of protein, and has tho same
amount of fuel value as a pound of
round steak.
A lunch of bread and skim milk la
very nutritious.'
Tho cooking of milk makos the pro
talds somewhat moro difficult of di
gestion for most persons, but thoro

cannot tako fresh milk with comfort,
but with whom boiled milk agrees
very woll.

More About Flsh.
Flsh should bo perfectly fro3h, al
though It may bo kept well It frozen
and cooked as soon as it Is thawed.
Another thing to bo roniembered In
serving fish Is to have It thorcughly
cooked, or It will bo Indigestible
Very serious poisoning has resulted
from fish that has begun to decom
pose. All varieties of fish need an accom
paniment of starchy food to make a
well balanced meal. ,
Ab the Juices of flsh have a ten-'
dency to alkalinity, the use of acids,
lemon .and vinegar, Is desirable to
neutralize the food.
The flesh of fresh fish Is Arm and
hard and will rlso when pressed with
the fingers.
See that the eyes are bright and
stand out well In the head and the
gills bright. Whon flsh loee their
firmness they are not considered good
food.
Frozen fish should bo thawed In
cold water. Salt flsh should bo soaked
skin sldo up, to draw out tho salt.
Whon scaling flsh that are difficult,
dip them quickly Into boiling water
nn instant and tho scales will como off
much hotter.
If flsh must bo kept, wrap It In a,
cloth wrung out of cold water nnd
well sprinkled with salt. Keop In a'
cool place, away from butter tind
milk.
To Bono a Flsh. Clean nnd strip off
tho skin, lay on a lioard, bogln at tho
tall. Run a knlfo under tho flesh close
to the bono, and ocrapo awny clean
from tho bono, holding tho flsh enro
fully, not to break tho flakes.
When tho flesh Is romovod on ono
sldo, Blip tho knlfo under tho bono
and remove It Then pull out all tho
small bones loft. Only flsh with largo
bones should bo used for boning.
Flllots of Ash nro tho flosh sepa
rated from tho bone.
When boiling flsh, tlo up In a pleco
of white cloth, then It may bo served
without breaking, It handled cnrofully.
Flsh that aro lucking In fat, llko
cod or bass, should havo fat supplied
in tho cooking or serving.
'ElStmn misused, an Idle hour
waltlnir to bo cmulovod. Idle
hands with no occupation. Idle and empty
minds with nothing to think of thoso nro
tno main temptations to ovll. Fill up
that empty void, employ those vacant
hours, occupy those listless hands, and
ovll' will depart becauso it hat no place
10 enter in, becauso It Is coriquamd by
Good. Dean Stanley.
Ways of Serving Meats.
An economical dish Which Is both
appetizing nnd may bo mado attrac
tive, is mutton with pons. Buy a
choap qtft of mutton and stow it in
simmering water until tender, or near
ly s6, thon add a cupful of, peas and

"Poor Jim Jones slung his earthly gar-
monts on a limb and swam tho river
yesterday. He did not stand back be

ITCHED SO COULD NOT SLEEP
"I suffered from tho early part of
Decembor until nearly the beginning
of March with severe eklu oruptlona
on my fnco and scalp. At first I
treated it as a trivial matter. But
aftor having used castllo soap, medi
cated washrags, cold oroam, vanish
ing cream, etc., I found no, rollof what-,
ovor. Aftor that I diagnosed my caso
as eczema, becauso of its dry, scaly
appearance. Tho Itching and burning
of my scalp bocamo so intonso that I
thought should go mad, having not
siopt regumny tor montns past, only
at intervals, waking up now arid then
becauso of tho burning and Itching of
my Bkln. Having read different tes
timonials of cures by tho Cutlcura
Romcdlcs, I decided to purchaso a box
of Cutlcura Ointment and a cako of
Cutlcura Soap. Aftor using thom for
a few days I recognized a marked
chango in my condition. I bought
about two boxes of Cutlcura Ointment
and flvo cakos of Cutlcura Soap In all,
and after a fow days I was ontlroly
freo from the itching and burning.
My eczoma wns entirely cured, nil
duo to using Cutlcura Soap and Oint
ment daily. Hereafter I will novor
bo without a cako of Cutlcura Soap on
my wnshstand. I highly recommend
tho Cutlcura Remedies to anyono suf'
forlng from similar skin eruptions and
hope you will publish my lettor bo
that others may Jearn of Cutlcura
Remedies and bo curod" (Signed)
