Betrayed By Former Friend, Promi- nent Citizen of Whitesburg, Ky, Is Taken Back to Prison. - Whitesburg, Ky.—Sixteen years of life as a respected citizen and business man in this city closed for T. B. Whitson when he was placed under arrest on charge of being an escaped convict from the state prison at Raleigh, N. C. He had amassed a fortune and made many friends, but now he must go back to the cell and serve the remainder of his unexpired term of 30 years for killing a man. The killing was done 28 years ago. Whitson was then a young man. He lived with his wife in Bakersville, N. C. He became enraged at certain conduct on the part of a neighbor, C. C. Byrd, which he considered a mortal insult. He and Byrd quar- reled and the latter was shot to death. For ten years the authorities fail- ed to locate Wilson, but he was final- ly found, tried and convicted in 1893. He escaped from the prison in Feb- ruary , 1895, and vanished complete- ly. It was about that time that he ap- peared in Detcher County, Ky. He went under the name of Samuel Jones, settled down to an industrious life and began to be very successtul. But with success and the lapse of years he became overconfident in his security. He told certain of his inti- mates his real name, and his bank account was kept as that of T. B. Whitson, When arrested he expressed the belief that a former fricnd, now an enemy, had betrayed him to the North Carolnia authorities. At any rate, Chief of Detectives Malcolm Brown received information and made inquires. He got a letter from the warden of the North Caro- || lina prison telling of Whitson's ca- reer. Brown discovered that Whit- son was about to pay a visit to Lex- ington and waited for him. The man was calm when arrested. “I have expected it for a long time.” he said. “I have been a fugitive from Jjustice for the greater part of my life. Yes, I killed Byrd. I had cause to. “But I don’t think they will keep | me in prison very long this time. I've been living right for a long time now.” TO WEAR SENSIBLE CLOTHES. Ban on Ultra-Fashionable Rainment Is Urged by Superintendent of Los Angeles Schools. Los Angeles, Cal.—Legislation providing that students of the Cali- fornia public schools wear simple ultra-fashionable raiment of the present day is advocated by county Superintendent of Schools Mark Kep- pel, nuless the present tendency of the younger generation to what he calls extravagence in dress is check- ed. Reform in dress and deaih to the hobble skirt, the tube gown. paint and powder, the transparent and cloud-like material in dresses and waists and to the “baby doll” curls and puffs are advocated by Superin- tendent Keppel in the schools of California. . Mr. Keppel desires to give the girl students of the common and high schools a hair cut so that the fluffy chantecler puffs and baby like Nell Brinkley curls, the stately corona- tion braids, and the transformation, the moderate pompadour and even the cute little Cupid bangs, shall fall victims to the shears of dress reform. Here is Mr. Keppel's ideal school girl’s costume and manner of attire: A turban-shaped hat, simply but artistically trimmed; hair braided down the back or combed and braid- on the head; a complexion acquired by vigorous use of soap, water and towel; a sweater or waist fitting the loose, flowing sleeves; a skirt of ma- terial sufficient to resist the cold or evén a one-piece gown fitting the figure neatly, but under no condition tightly; no corsets; stockings of medium weight, but sufficiently heavy to protect the limbs against cold or damp weather; shoes with heavy soles and with heels three- quarters of an inch in height and with the heels set back far enough so that the heel of the shoe comes directly under the heel of the foot. CLARA BARTON’S GOOD WORK America -Is Indebted to Her for Its Red Cross System. America owes its Red Cross almost entirely to one woman—Clara Bart- | on. While resting in Europe, after | her arduous work during the civil war, she learned of Mr. Durant, read | his book, looked into the treaty, saw ! its application in the wars then pending, and came home determined that he own country should ratify the_treaty and put it to good use. Said Miss Barton: “If we had adopt- ed the Red Cross idea in the Civil ‘War Andersonville, with its 10,000 City Drug Store| .., | Tames McDonald Ross, a Cherokee ~ Indian Chief Buried There. Even the solemn and serene ceme- tery of the Moravians at Bethelehem supplies an interesting addition to the curious epitaph collection in the following, which is cut on a stone over the grave of an Indian: In memory of my dearest son, James Mc Donald Ross, eldest son of John Ross, principal chief of the Therokee na- tion, died in St. Louis, November 9, 1864. His corpse was transported by Adems Express to Bethlehem and interred at this sacred spot November 22, 1864, age fifty years, twenty- nine days.” Soft Water for Good Tea. “New York water is too hard to make good tea,” said the English matron. “The use of soft water is one secret of tea making that New York people seem never to have learned. Before we found that we could buy soft water bottled we soft- ened the water for making tea with a pinch of soda.” Flowers of the Sea. The sea has flowers as the land has, but the most brilliant of the sea flowers bloom not upon plants, but upon animals. . The living corals of tropical seas present a display of floral beauty which in richness and vividness of color and variety and grace of form rival the splendor of a garden of flowers.
