AT ff Admiral CaillarJ Has th. Eyes of the .World Focused Upon Him. HARD AFTER THE TURK Freneta Fleet Seizes Turkish Customs to I in press a Point I'pou Abdul II amid. International Complications That May Vet Throw Europe Into a Turmoil. Parte, Nov. 6. The following dispatch has been received rrom Admiral CaiLIard: "Mityline, Nov. 5. Armored division arrived at Mitylene." The dispatch does not mention any Incident attending the landing, but It Beema certain the French commander carried out his instructions, which were to occupy three ports of the island and to seize customs. These dispatches directed Admiral Caillard to procede to the island of Mitylene, where he will seize the customs at MiJilli and at another port. The foreign office has not yet received the sultan's reply to the note presented by M. Baptiste, counsellor of the French legation at Constantinople, following out the instructions of M. Delc&ase, the foreign minister, under date of Nor. S. When the French government deccided to send a French squadron to Turkey, It debated whether to seize the customs at Salonica, Beirut or Smyrna, as it was realized that the receipts of one of these three big ports would be required to produce a sufficient sum to pay off the French claims without a long occupation, which was considered inadvisable. The occupation of Salonica was at once dismissed because it might create the false impression that France was aiming to reopen the Macedonian question. The occupation of Beirut was also set aside owing to the French position and interests in Syria, where the population, too, looks upon France as its protector. The occupation of Beirut, therefore, was certain to create effervescence, and. perhaps, even rebellion. The choice of M.Delcasse consequently fell upon Smyrna, which offers epual advantages to the other ports without having their political drawbacks. Saturday, however, came the dispatch from M. Bapst announcing the Issuing of the sultan's irade accepting the Lorando claim in its entirety, as France demanded. This dispatch slightly modified the aspect of the situation, inasmuch as M. Delcasse came to the conclusion that the sultan would now settle the money claims, and would within a few days produce the guarantees which France demanded for their payment. The necessity for seizing big customs, therefore, became less pressing, although the necessity for occupying Turkish territory in order to exercise pressure .and compel the sultan to concede the demands respecting Turkey's disregard to French treaty rights, still remained urgent. The government, therefore decided that Admiral Caillard should occupy a couple of ports -on the island of Mityline, which is conveniently close to Smrna. ' Further Preparations. Paris, Nov. 6.

State Gas Inspector Leach Will Be Given Assistance In HU Task. Anderson. Ind., Nov. 6. At a large and enthusiastic meeting of gas belt manufacturers held here yesterday afternoon the decision was reached to begin at once the raising of a fund with which to enable Gas Supervisor Leach to employ four additional de puties to detect and put a stop to the waste of natural gas. About twenty prominent factory owners and officials attended the meeting and there was a marked unanimity of sentiment on the main proposition before the body, which was to devise ways and means to prevent further waste of the natural gas. The plan agreed upon. In brief, is to get together a fund of not less than $10,000. which shall be at the A'lj posal of the supervisor, subject to reasonable restrictions imposed by the executive committee. This committee, which is thoroughly representa tive of the prominent gas belt cities and towns, will hold a meeting at the Hotel Doxey in Anderson on Saturday night for the purpose of drawing up a form of agreement, fixing the amount of the fund to be raised, and selecting a treasurer of the association. When the size of the fund has been determined, assessments will be levied on the members of the association in proportion to the benefits to be received by each member. President Kelly stated the object of the meeting to be to take steps looking to the prevention of gas waste. He referred to the conviction of Weir, of the Consumers' Gas Trust Company, by a jury of farmers at Anderson last week and added that they have two or three contempt cases against employes of that company yet to be tried.

Keith was conducted into the office, where Warden James D. Reid told him that his application had been denied by the highest tribunal of the state, and that unless the governor should interfere, the prisoner would be executed after midnight one week from next Friday morning. Keith's face blanched, and his head jerked back slightly with a sudden inspiration as from a shock, but he quickly regained that complete composure that has characterized his conduct during his stay in prison, and talked to the officials camly, though with a tone of disappointment. He asked the privilege of communicating with his attorneys, requesting them to make an application to Governor Durbin for a stay or commutation of sentence. The privilege was granted him, and he has written to his lawyers at Evansville. Keith was removed from the cell i he has long occupied, to the death j chamber adjacent to the deputy wari den's office, and the death watch has i been placed over him. Fatal Kunaway. Ft.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE aerations For the Laaadrr. A practical lauudress says that all towels should le tLuronlily dried before thoy nr. put ia the hamper. That clothespins are made much more tlurable by boiliug for ten uiiuutes before they are used. That linen may be made beautifully white by the use of a little refined borax iu the water instead of using a washing fluid. That blankets should be washed In moderately warm water, la tvuk-b a teaspoonfr.l of ammonia Las beeu put to each irullou of water. Tluit wash fabrics that are inclined to fade should be soaked and rinsed iu very salt water, to set the color, before washinsr in the suds. That calicoes, ginghams and chintzes should be ironed on the wrong side. That a Tory hot iron should never be used fir flauuels or wooleus. That napkins should always be folded with the selvajre toward the irouer. That embroideries should le ironed on a thin, smooth surface over thick flannel and only uu the wrong side.

Cloaeta and Kitchen Tables. If possible, have a corner closet somewhere. It cau Ik? built by a carpenter and painted by some member of the family. Its drawers are for the holding of towels, ironing sheets, work aprons, etc., while the shelves supply a p!ace for preserves, pickles and dainties for winter use. The perfect kitchen boasts of three tables a large, substantial oue of pine, without cover, which should be scrubbed every day; the other two smaller, one with a marble top for the making of bread and pies, and one covered with white oilcloth for preparing food, cleaning fowls and vegetables, useful iu the never ending details of good housekeeping. Kvery kitchen should have a standing tray, where dishes from each course are placed when taken from the table or desserts kept up to the point of serving. An Improved Dmirr. The ordinary feather duster In the hands of the housemaid has the faculty of stirring up the dust and causing it to alight elsewhere about the room instead uf eleauiug it up, as should be done. There are already in use pneumatic dusters, which will draw the dust into a tube connected with the brush, but it was impossible to use them for light work on account of the motor necessary to run the suction fan at the end of the hose. The illustration shows a duster which applies practically the same principle, but with the suction arrangement inside the back of the brush. The mechanism is formed of frout and APPAEATT3 THAT PICKS CP DCST. back plates, with a flexible fabric Joining them and an internal spring to bold them normally apart. The handle is attached to one plate and the brush to the other, with a valve at the rear of the brush. A slight pressure ou the surface to be dusted closes the bellowslike plates and shuts the valve to prevent the outflow of air through the bristles, and as soon as the pressure ia removed the opening of the bellows sucks air in through the bristles, drawing the dust with it. As the plates again close the air inside is filtered through a second valve, leaving tue dust Inside, where it remains until the duster is opened for cleaning. Charles J. Harvey of Kidderminster, England, is the inventor. UJE";"-" Cake Dish awd Candle Holder. Mrs. Julia Alice Earl of Cincinnati has invented a combined dish and candle bolder for use In connection with birthday cakes. It has a central vertical tube, with a second tube coupled to the first.one at its upper end in such a way as to be easily removed. The second tube supports a series of branches, which in their turn are provided with sockets to hold the candles. One advantage of the arrangement is that any one of the sets of candles may lx afmovetl at a moment's notice, and thus one may have as many tapers as are wanted or as few. Koarlabaneat la Jellies. Jellies and fruits cooked in sugar when eaten moderately with bread or crackers are regarded as among the most nourishing and healthful of all aliments. When they prove injurious, It Is owing either to the fact that they are taken alone or with rich cream or else are taken In too great quantities. Eaten moderately, as a part of a meal, they are safe and nourishing to all except persons of poor digestion. Healthful stomachs need not be governed by rules demanded by the Invalid, which has been too often attempted. (VrvrVeiled Potat The best thing to do If you happen to overboil potatoes is to drain off all water possible. Put them still in the saucepan, but without the lid over the fire and stir with a wooden spoon till the water has evaporated and they become floury. Mash till no lumps are left. Add salt pepper, a lump of butter or dripping and a Itle milk. Mir and beat well and serve as mashed potatoes.
