AJI« VaMBU CHAPTER XIX.â€" (Cont'd.) Events accurately fulftlleii Trask .s prediction. The selection of a jury occupied the greater pan of two days. Dave followed all the proceodinRs with an intensse, nervous .intere.-it: Schlupfe seemed stolid and uncon- cerned. The two prisoners sat so far apart that direct communication between ihem was impossible, and from the first they took little- notice of each other. Dave, leaning on the table in front of him, concentrated hij attention on the juror who was being examined; Schlupfe lolled comfort- ably in his seat as one who had no- thing to fear. Behind Dave sal his mother; at frequent intervals sho would reach forward and touch or press his arm, striving to communic- ate her love and faith. Once the jury was chosen, the trial moved rapidly. Mulkern, the District Attorney, made a brief opening ad- dress. He was a sallow, .snarp- featured man, thin and tall, and he gave the impression of being both just and merciless. He outlined the case for the prosecution, commented on the peculiarly brutal nature of the crime, and closed by saying that he believed the evidence to be presented would warrant the finding of a verdict of murder in the first degree against each of the defendants. He called Henry Morrison as the first witness. Morrison testified that he lived in the house adjoining Walsh's store, that on the night of September 15, at about eleven o'clock, he was in bed reading when he heard a shot and almost immediately, on the sidewalk under his open window, the footsteps of a man running. He had won<!ered about it for a moment he- fore getting up to investigate; when he reached the window and looked out he saw a policeman pursuing a man who was then far up the street. He had not waited to see the outcome of the chase, but had hurriedly dressed gone out of his house and into the store. At first he .saw no one; then he looked behind the counter and fouml Walsh lying unconscious, with blood flowing from a wound in the neck. With a handkerchief he had tried to stanch the flow, and then had telephoned to Dr. Curran ami to i)olico hea<lquartcrs. Aiui then he had run IngrcinCs ouvcrainc Face Powder rSoi When warm days or hard work cause you to perspire, your nose and (ureheud become oily and shiny.

Ingram Company Wiadior, Unlaria (l.>0) upstairs and roused Mrs. Walsh, who was asleep in the apartment over the store . Trask cross-examined Morrison and asked him if he had not seen two men fleeing. Morrison .said that he had seen only one; that the policeman was almost under his window when he looked and that he had taken just a glance up the street which had shown him the fugitive, perhaps a hundred yards away, that he had then drawn in his head and jjot ready hastily to find out what had happened. "You wouldn't swear that there weren't two men rurining away?" "No, but I saw only one, and my impression is that there was only one." "You were, of course, very much excited, and didn't observe as careful- ly as you might have done â€" you were in a hurry to get away and see what had taken place?" "That might be," admitted the wit- ness. Ur. Curran descril>ed the wound and explained that it was necessarily fatal . The man was in fact mori- bund when he arrived, which was within five minutes of receiving the telephone message. The skin round the wound was blackened and burned; the weapon had evidently been dis- charged with the mjizzle almost touching the victim. Dr. Kelly, the medical examiner, corroborated Dr. Curran and exhibit- ed the 38-calil)er revolver bullet that had been recovered in the autopsy. Mrs. Walsh took the stand. She was a comely, middle-aged woman of character and self-control; she ans- wered the questions quietly, and though her lips trembled and she sometimes seemed on the verge of tears, she did not break down.' She looked fretiuently at the prisoners, from one to another, with an ex- ! pression of sorrowful wonder rather j than of vengefulncsB. Dave could I not meet her eyes, but Schlupfe gazed I back at her hardily. Her testimony I was of no real importance; she said ; that she had been in the store talking i with her husband at a (luarter past ' ten on the night of the murder, and < that H few minutes after eleven she ! had be<'n roused from sleep and had , come downstairs to find him dying. .Next Sheehaii was called and testi- 1 lied to the circumstances under which I he had made the arrest and to the dif- ficulty which he and the lieutenant I had had expci ieiiced in trying to draw a confession from the pri.^oncr. Court j«as adjourned Inr tlie day v.'itli the I lieutenant about to testify to the de- ; tail;; of the confession. i .lerry, who had been in the room for part of the afternoon, walked home with bis mind disturbed about 'many things. Schluphe's attitude of IndifTerence :ind confidence wa."? dis- quieting. It made Jerry wonder if .Schlupfe knew tliing.s that Dave hadn't told, and would be able tu prove facts to Dave's (li.s<idvaiitage. More- over, Jerry looked forward to hi.s own appearance on the witness stand the next day with uneasiness. In the two hionths thai had elapsed since the night of the murder his dereliction from duty in letting Dave escape had troubled hint l]ut little. Now, how- ever, it was giving him concern. Should he be obliged on the witness stand to narrate that episode? Would there be any way of evading it? He had not confided it to Trask; he couldn't iiuite bring himself to the point of going to a lawyer and asking .iilvict- about Buppres.^ing or evading the truth. Yet if the truth came out, it might not only afl'ect mo.<tt serious- ly his own future, but It might also be j)rcjudicial to Dave. Not of an inlrospcrtive habit, and disposed to look Oti the bright side of things, .terry made up riis mind after some pondering that he could tell n suf- ficiently truthful atory without In- \ criminating or doing nn injury to Dave's case. i The next morning tho lieutenant j con'oborated Sheehan's story of the confession, and, as Sheehan had done, told how obstiriat^'ly Dave had re- sisted the effort to make him disclose his confederate's identity. i "So up to the time when yoii left ' Bcanlan on that night he had not mentioned Schlupfe « name?" asked Maxwell )n crnss-examlnnUon. ' "'No, »lr," "\Vheil aid you first learn th haJ Implinated Schlupfe?" j "About half an hour later, when ' Officer Donohue came to the deek ant} told me." ] Offici'r T)onohue was called. Mill I kern, the District Altornoy, a4ke<t him ' if hi.s patrol on the night of tne mur- iler took him info the neighborhood of Hhe crime. I "Ves, .sir," ,Ierry answered.

The housewife knows that these delicacie.°. for the table will give ze.sL to the plainest meal. The prudent woman will con.serve for future use during the winter and early spring the foods of summer, knowing that when wintry days come she can then successfully reap the re- sults of her labors and please the family palate. ; Do not use any coloring agent,' alum or other chemicals; they are very dangerous. The food laws pro- , hibit the sale of foods containing them. And many serious troubles can be traced directly to their use. U.se the best materials for success- ful results. It is vitally necessary to use all-glass jars whefi canning pickles, catsup, sauces, and so forth. The vinegar content of the food creates an action between the zinc covering of the top of the lid a -d its porcelain lining. The noticeable difference between imported catsup, | sauces and condiments and those made at home is due to the use of malt vinegars, which are always used; in Europe. i Do not cook pickles, sauces, cat- sups, and so forth in aluminum, cop- per or tinware. The porcelain- lined kettle is the proper kind. The secret of keeping home-made catsup a pleasing red co:or is to tie the spices in a piece of cheesecloth. Long boiling is not necessary. Do you remember how the whole day long catsup boiled and boiled until it was sufficiently thick? Ah, I see you do, and how hot it was to stand over the kettle and stir and stir to j prevent scorching. Now try my. method. 1 To Can Tomatoes for Soup | Wash one basket of tomatoes and | then cut in pieces and cook until i very soft. Rub through a colander i to remove the cores and skins.. Re- 1 turn to kettle and boil f ir twenty mi- j nutes. Fill into sterilized pint jars and adjust the rubbers and lids, part^ ; tally tightening. Process forty mi- \ nutes in hot-water bath. Seal securely, then test for leaks and store in a cool, dry place. Canned Tomatoes Select basket of firm tomatoes and i plunge Into boiling water and then into cold water to remove the skins. 'â-  Peel and core and then pack into sterilized jars . Fill jars to over- , flowing with tomato pulp. Adjust the rubV)ers and lids and process in ' hot- water bath forty-five minutes, i Uentove from bath, fasten lids secure- 1 ly anil test for leaks. Cool, then, store in a cool, dry place. I Drain the tomato pulp by turning , the tomato mixture into a sieve and | rubbing through sieve. This me- 1 thod of removing the water eliminates â-  long boiling. This is a saving of! fuel . The water drained from the tomatoes may be used for making ' vinegar. Chili Sauce Wash one basket of tomatoes, rut in pieces. Place in preserving ket- tle and add: -3 quarts of onions, peel- ed and cut in slices, 1 clove of garlic, peeled and cut in bits, 10 large, green peppers, washed, seeds removed and peppers chopped fine. Cook mixture until very soft and then rub through a very coarse sieve or colander. Drain fifteen minutes through jelly |)ag. Return to kettle and add: â€" 1 pound brown sugar, 1 cup of salt, 1 quart strong cider vinegar, and the follow- ing si)ices tied in a cloth: â€" 1 ounce ICKLK JAK. celery seed, 1 ounce mustard, 3/table spoons mustard, 5 tab'cspoons ground cloves, C tablespoons ground allspice, 3 tablespoons mace, Vi cup of salad oil. (^ook until mixture is very thick. Fill into sterilized pint jars, adjust the rubbers and lids and place in hot-, water bath for thirty miiuiles. Fast- en lids securely, te.st for leaks and store in cool, dry place! If these directions are followed carefully these will be delicious pro- ducts for the winter without the loss of a single Jar. Chili sauce may be placed in jars and sealed without pro- cessing if desired. I Pickled Oniona j Use the small onions. Scald in boiling water for ten minutes to \ loosen the skins, and then plunge into cold water. Remove the skins, and then soak for twenty-four hours In brine/^hat will float an egg. Then rinse in plenty of cold water. Place in a preserving kettle and cover with: 1 part skim milk, 2 parts water. Bring to a boil and cook gently for fifteen minutes. Drain, wash in plenty of cold water. Fill into bot- tles and cover with hot, spiced white wine vinegar. Seal in the usual manner for pickles and catsup. Gherkins Pick small cucumbers or kherkins. Wa.sh, place in a strong brine that w'iU Afloat an egg. Weigh down to keep them under the brine. Let stand for six days. Take from brine and rinse well. Place in a preserving kettle and cover with spiced cider vinegar. Cook slowly for ten mi- nutes and fill into all-glass Jars. Fast- en securely and store in a cool place. Sweet Pickles Take the cucumbers or gherkins, as prepared in the foregoing recipe, from the brine and place in a preserv- ing kettle. Cover with cider vine- gar, and then to each quart of vine- gar add: â€" 1 cup brown sugar, 1 ounce mixed spices, 4 blades mace, 1 lemon cut in paper-thin slices and parboiled until tender, 1 clove of gar- lic. Cook slowly for fifteen minutes and then fill into all-glass jar.s. Seal and store in a cool place. Sour "I'ickles Wash fifty cucumbers and then place in a brine that will float an egg, for one week. Wash, place in a preserving kettle, and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, cook for five minutes and then rinse. Place in a crock, packing tightly, and adding: Food Control Corner For ignorinjr the reg, nation which calls for a reckoning for bad eggs purchased from producers or country dealers, over and above an allowance of one per cent., the William Davies Company and the Matthews-Black- well Company, both of Montreal, have been forbidden to buy, sell or other- wise deal in eggs for 20 day.t. Ac- cording to the regtilations in force since June 1st last, every dealer placing eggs in cobl storage is re- quired to furnish to the operator of the warehouse, a statement in writ- ing certifying that such eggs have been candled and that b.id or unsound eggs have been removed . No lic- ensee of the Canada Food Board is permitted to pay, or demand payment for bad eggs in excess of an allowed margin of one percent, of the total amount of the transaction . The ob- ject of the Canada Food Board was to make the handling of such eggs un- profitable for the dealer, who is now obliged to charge them back against those from whom they are originally purchased. In the case of the two companies under suspension, it was found that no attempt had been made to charge back for unsound eggs in this way, although the candling re- cords showed percentages running as high as fourteen. A firm in Charlot- tetown has been disciplined in the same way for a similar offence. It was manifestly nothing but fair that the public should not be called upon to pay for iiad eggs. If a deal- er purchases bad eggs and pays for them the least trouble for iiim would be to gay nothing about it after find- ing the fact out by candling, but pass the eggs on into the channek of trade, where the consumer would eventually pay for the loss. Everybody else who handled the eggs, from the pro- ducer to the retail storekeeper would thus have charged their profits and expenses just the s.ime. By the or- der of the Canada Food Board it is provided that bad eggs be reported and charged back to their source of origin so that the loss is borne by the parties responsible for their de- lay in reaching the market fresh. In these times of high prices for eggs and every other food commodity, the consumer is doubly entitled to fresh eggs bought in good faith in the re- gular way. Producers should be care- ful of the stock they sell and dealers should be watchful of the stock they buy. H. Tom, proprietor of the Paris' Cafe, 15 Notre Dame Street, Quebec' City, has been ordered to close his restaurant for a period of seven days, commencing August 31st for manu- facturing and retailing iced cakes contrary to the Order of the Canada Food Board. Boston Cafe, Three Rivers, Quebec, to close his restaurant, and his license has been suspended for a period of seven days, dtiring which time he may not serve any meals or purchase any foodstuffs. Investigation by the Board's Inspectors showed that this restaurant had been serving beef- steak at all houi-a and bread i:i excess of the proportions permitted by the food regula'ions. •I cloves of garlic, 1 dozen bay leaves, 1 ounce of mixed spices.

Mixed Pickles 4 quarts of cucumbers, peeled and cut in H^ inch blocks, 1 quart o£ small onions, 1 quart of cauliflower, 1 doscen red pepper pods, 1 lemon cut In thin slices and parboiled until tender.

Adding: â€" 1 cup of brown sugar to each qiiai t of. cider vinegar used. Now mix and add: () bay leaves, 2 cloves of garlic, 2 tablespoons whole cloves, 2 table- spoons of whole allspice, 1 table- spoon of mustard seed, 1 tablespoon of celeiy seed, 1 stick of cinnamon, 2 blade.s of mace. Bring to a boil and cook for fifteen minutes. Fill into all-glass jars and seal.

No food meets these requirements more perfectly than DUwRlla lat he the block and ran up Eighth towards Weaver Street. I chased them, but they got round the corner of Weaver Street, going south. I wasn't very far behind, and when I turned into Weaver Street they were both in sight. Where Seventh crosses Weav- er, one of them took the turn to the left, and I went after him. But he had disappeared; I thought he'd gone Into the alloy between Seventh and Eighth, but 1 couldn't ftiid him. The other fellow had gone up Seventh in the opuwite direction; when I came out after searching for the ftr.st man, he wasn't to be seen. So I went iiack to find out what had happened. Tliere were three women in the entrance to Walsh's store, kind of afraid to go in: Walsh was lying on tho floor behind the counter, dead; Mrs. Walsh and Mr. Morrison were both there. I stayed until Officers Pinkliam and Thomas came, and then 1 told them what I've told jttst now." "What did you do then?" "1 finished my patrol 'and at two o'clock went to Station i) to report. Tlien I learned that Rcanlan had been arretted and that (>ffic«T l^heehan and Lieutenant Murjihy were still nue.stioniug him. I thought maybe Siiinlan might talk to me, for I had known him well for yoara, so I went up to tlic room . I waited outsida and heard him toll the story that Officer Rhoehan and Iyieut«;iant Murphy have told . "Vhen I went in and a.sked Lieu- tenant Murphy to leave me alone with him a while.

I "You say. Officer Donohtie that you ' uaed to know the defenant Scanlan; : how' well did y5u know him?" "About as well as if he was my I brother. W»> were together out at , Millvale as boys, and we worked to- gether in the Purroy Mills until they changed hands; Scanlan was about my best friend." "He bore a good reputation among his fellow workmen?" "Yes sir." "This sentence that he has just serve<lâ€" drunk and disorderly â€" do you know anything about that?" "1 saw him early in the evening that it happened -his getting drunk. He was in I.apatka's place, sitting at a table with this fellow Schlimfe. He told me that he was out of a Job, and I said if he would come to me the next mor/iiiig I thought maybe 1 knew where there was one that he might fet. Well, he didn't come, and when tried t" get track of him a few days later he'd disappeared. I never learned until the night of his con- fession what had happened to him â€" and then I didn't learn much. He only remcml)ered he had been in Lapatka's place with Schlupfe; when he came to the next day he was under arrest, for the first time in his life." (To be continued.)
