PAGE TWO BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE THURSDAY, AUGUST 19, 1920 ‘MYSTERY MAN’ WILL BE CARED | ~FOR BY WOMAN Mrs. Lambert Blue Claims Man}’ as Her Husband Fights Asylum, Effort WANDERED IN N. DAKOTA St. Paul, Minn, Aug. 19—"J. C.} R.,” ‘man of mystery, identified hy Mrs. Lambert V. Blue, 281 West Sev- enth: street, as James C. Harris, is in St. Paul after years of aimless roam- | ing between Dickinson, N. D., and the Pacific coast. His. coming here from California was at the instigation of Mrs. Blue, who says she is his former wife and that, she will see to it that he is taken. cure of and that she will fight any attempt by authorities to place him in an asylum. Says She Will Care ior Him At her home Mrs. Blue refused to say whether he would be taken care of | in the house occupied by herself and Mr. Blue but according to neighbors who have known her for a considers able period, “J. C. R.” is being looked after by Mrs. Blue in her home. Officers of the Minnesota Board of Control informed Mrs. Blue that they had learned she brought “J. C. Rt.” into Minnesota despite their ruling, that she must furnish a $2,000 bond to guarantee that he would never be come a public charge. To a reported she said that he would be looked after as well as any- body could look after him if she was only let alone. She admitted that she was not in the best of circumstances, but asserted that it did not give her any worry. Warned by State Officer The board of contro] officer who called on her told her “J. C. BR.” would have to be deported from the state if he should get into a pubfic hospital again. “You'll have to get him over my dead body,” answered the woman, who for years mourned her first hus- band as dead after seéking vainly to solve the mystery of his disappear: ance. Board of control officers said she told them she would send Harris out of Minnesota again as soon as cer- tain business matters could be straightened up. Before ke bade his wife good-by to go on a fishing trip in June, 1907. after which he failed to return, Har- ris was the owner of a plantatjon in} Florida and a mercantile stgre in; Duluth, state officials said. t Plantation in Mystery The stock was turned back to the company by his wife, but ownership of the Florida plantation became aj part of the mystery that has confus- ed detectives, courts and state gov- ernments in their efforts to trace the lost James Harris. Equally vain were their efforts to identify the wanderer, who appeared in Minne- sota some time after Harris disap- peared and who was unable to speak and who could write only three let- ters, “J.C.

If the ma- terial is transparent, the design may be placed directly under it and the pattern traced. The waxing of the design on the fabric with the tjanting or brush, should be done with the material laid on. thin smooth paper, so that it may be removed trom the table with- out breaking-the now cool wax. Whatever part of, the material is to remain its original color, should be covered with wax. : = First Dye Bath. Now it is ready for the first dye bath. American-batiking is done by dyeing the lightest shade to the dar! est, by a series of dye baths. After each dyeing the material should be rinsed in warm water. It it is to be only a one-color - design, the bati may ‘now be thoroughly rinsed in gasoline to remove all the wax. More elaborate color schemes are produced by a repetition of the. pro- cess, simply covering up, with fres wax, the parts one wishes to retain in. the shade of the last dye bath. This re-waxing, dipping and rinsing is containued until the colors that the ‘scheme demands are obtained, and then the wax ig removed as de- scribed. Great stress must. be laid on the temperature of the dye-baths. When pure beeswax is used ‘the dye-bath should be maintained -at a heat of 110 degrees Fahrenheit. If a mixture of Paraffin ‘has been used, it is well! to have ‘the dye at a higher tempera- ture than 90 degrees Fahrenheit, The material must always be wash- ed and dried before .g’ second dye bath. Never wring the material, for this will break the wax. It is best to.wrap the material in an old sheet ‘o prevent the dripping which might streak it. After this “blotting” the material soon dries. | Hang over a snen-absorbent clothesline, otherwise there may be a mark on the material where it has hung. Things to Remember, And remember, always start dye- ing the lightest color first, and work- ing through the color plan to its darkest shade. For instance, if the, lesign calls for yellow, red and black the dye-baths should be arranged in this same order. Amageyrs are often too lavish with their dye. A little at a time, letting material gather it up, is the besi means to a satisfactory shade. When ironing it is well to put the garment or panel, between paper, preventing streaking. It will be seen that with a little pa- tience the novice can turn out charming articles. for the ward-robe, and the fascination of the work and its results make batik an ideal occu- pation. ‘ FRIENDS SHIP FOOD OVER SEA TO THE GERMANS Friends Service Committee, Phila- | delphia, has arranged to make ship- | ments of food for the child feeding work in Germany in sufficient quan- year. Recently there have been shipped jfrom New York ° 240 tons of cocoa, 317 1-2 tons of lard and 14,320 cases of condensed milk. In addition to this, there were shipped 31 barrels of cod liver oil ‘for hospital use in combating rickets, | the disease of children so common there because .of _under-nutrition. Dried peas and dried beans used in the food ration are already stored in warehouses in Hamburg to be drawn as needed; 880 tons of rice have been purchased and will be delivered at Hamburg soon. The remaining ar- ticles of the ration, flour and sugar, will be supplied in the future by the German government. The value of these goods is about $1,500,000 and it is expected it wili Friends fed during the spring months tended in the clubs, hotels, and cafes of the city.
