A ENPERT DEVISES FIRELESS STOVE University Professor Co-op- erates With Club Women in Interesting Experiment ARMY MEN MAKE TEST Advantages Resulting From Use ‘of Invention- Calcu- lated to Please the Cook A S A BERKELEY, Feb. 1.—Professor M. B. Jafts, the food expert of the Univer- sity of Californie, has begun experi- ments with a “fireless stove,” the re- | sults of which are expected to be of unusual interest to housewives, and in- cidentally to beads of families who pay Co-operating with the university scientist {s the Town and Gown Club of Berkeley, an organiza- tion sometimes designated as “fash- fonable,” but whose members extend their interest to such purely domestic problems as cookery and methods by which the art may be improved and ifs expense lessened. Mrs. F. C. Torrey of the Town. gnd Gown Club read a paper before the organization & fortnight age dealing with the subject of fireless stoves after consultation with Professor Jaffa and the study of experiments made by the United Stetes Army Department and some civic organizations of Germany. The firelegs stove principle is ex- plained by ‘Professor Jaffa to be merely the application of the idea that mon- conductors of heat utilized to rétain the heat of the body in cold weatHer may also he used to retain heat gener- ated in a pot of boiling water, wherein meat or vegetables have been placed to cook. The Mfireless stova’ really is a box, upholstered in some instances and in other instances made up of boards in which hay is placed around the bofl- ing pots, all kept as air tight as pos- sible. The food to be cooked is first boiled over a gas or coal stoye for about five minutes and then the bolling pot is transferred-to the fireless stove and there kept for several hours. ° Nefther Professor Jaffa nor the ladies of the Town-and Gown Club clalnmi any credit for the discovery of the idea of 2 fireless steve, it being understood that the Uinited States army is working on | tiie sanre lines to test the ‘merit of the invention, if that can be called an in- vention which is not’ patented — mor monopolized by & corporation.

EFFECTS OF ANDREWS ARE SOLD AT AUCTION: OAKLAND, Feb. 1.—The jewelry and persopal effects of Milton Frauklin An- drews, the murderer of Bessle Bou- ton ‘and of his companion, Nulda Olivia, whom he killed when he took his own life to escape arrest in San Francisco, were sold at auction to-day in a local salesroom. Prominent among those who attended the sale was Willlam E. Bllis, the Apstralian turf- men, whom Andrews attempted fo murder in Berkeley, and who was the indirect cause of the latter's death. Ellis purchased a silk waist and a beautiful shawl which had once: been the property of Nulda Olivia. Strange to say the majority. of those. who attended the sale of the property of the murderer \and his companion were women, and these eagerly bid against one another for the relics of the criminal, and when successful bore them away In triumph.

Takes Stand in the McNulty Trial Admits He Knew All About Monej Transac- Between Defens OAKLAND, Feb. 1L.—When the prose- cution closed and the defense began its efforts this afternoon to batter down the testimony that had been offered against Lester C. McNulty, accused of attacking Dorothy Olsen, it looked for a time as if & sensation would be sprung, but noth- ing more formidable than two or three wrangles between J. A. Marshall, the first witness for the defense, and District Attorney Allen ocourred; and, when court edjourned, Marshall, red-faced and de- flant, was still on the stand. He will be interrogated further next Monday. Marshall etarted in briskly to deny what Miss Olsen had said, but he was halted as briskly by Deputy Distriot At- torney Brown, and later, when the Dis- triet Attorney examined him, he floun- dered around for awhile and finally ad- mitted that he knew all about the money transactions between the MoNultys and Derothy Olsen. When Marshall took the stand he sald his residence was at 2740 Telegraph ave- nue, and facetiously added when asked his busine: that he ““aid a little bit of When he found the court would not countenance jesting, he said he Was @ contractor. MARSHALL MAKES DENIAL. Marshall was positive that thers were no marks on Dorothy Olsen’s face the day after the alleged assault, and he said that she complained only of a pair of bent eyeglasses and a torn skirt. He sald Miss Olsen had not made the re- mark that the man who attacked her was darker than McNulty, Marshall, for whom Migs Olsen worked when the alleged. attack occurred, testi- fled that Miss Olsen saifi, the next day, that McNulty looked something like the man who attacked her, but that she could not be positive. “I' never advised her to say McNulty was not the man,” declared Marshall, hotly, “and I never sald that if he. were gullty he ought to be punished, but that it would kill his father und mother. I have never said anything'like that, and tion 1 have never cried while discussing the case with her.” Regarding the $500 that Miss Olsen claims to have recelved from the Mc- Nultys, Marshall testified that the woman said she would not be compelled to give back one cent. She also said, he de- clared, that it was worth §1000 to McNulty to keep the affair from becoming public. Marshall admitted that he had told Miss Olsen that he would “go good” for the $300 that the McNultys first paid her, be- cause. he knew them to be financially re- sponsible, but he declared that he hagd no idea of influencing her. When "District Attorney Allen closely questioned Marshall about the money transactions, the witness shouted: “I'm not sitting. in this chair as a crim- inal,” But Judge Allen” continued his rapid cross-fire of questions, and Marshall, after being admonisned by the court, said he had not offered to-‘‘stand good” for the money because he wished to as- sist the defendant. He had no idea, he sald, of shielding McNulty. He told the girl that she might progecute him if she desired, but that, whatever she did, he and his wife would stand by her. He said the girl left his employment of her own volition, and in that regard the girl said. after the adjournment.of court: - . “I léft the employment of Mr. Marshall because he seemed to be trying to get me to favor McNulty—to not identify McNulty as the man who attacked me. When Mr. Marshall talked ta me about the case I thought I ought to leave the place, and I left.” < CONDUCTOR ALVIS RECALLED. At the morning session of the court Archibald Alvis, the conductor ‘who was in charge of the car on which Miss Olsen and McNulty are alleged to have ridden the night of November 5, was recalled, but nothing further relating to the ma- terial facts of the case were learned from him. Following Alvis, whom Judge Friek accused of trying to ‘make a magistrate of himself in volunteering information, Miss Olsen again took the stand to testify that McNulty wore a light vest the night of the attack. That opened the door for Frick to try to im- peach her further, and she testified that Marshall - had told her that McNulty ought te be punished, but that the pub- licity would kill his father and mother. “Mrs. Marshall sald to me, ‘If it Fad been me, I'd have asked for . more money,’ " declared the girl, “but I never asked for any more. And I never sald I was sorry for the defendant.” Sophte ' Petersen, who has been de- geribed as the “second girl” of the Mar- shall household, was the next witness, and it developed that she was the gov- erness of the Marshall children, that she had taught school for two years:in Iowa and that she had been educated In Europe and the Bast.' This was brought out when.she said that Miss Olsen, her hair disheveled and her cheeks flushed, went to her room and told of the attack on the lawn. Miss Petersen testified that Dorothy sald five or six cars passed on Telegraph avenue while she was strug- gling with McNulty. The girl's testi- mony is that only two cars passed by. Miss Olgen was recalled several times and Jack Austin, who was with McNuity that Sunday & few hours before the at- tack, testified regarding their conduct in the afternoon. The case will go on Monday. MAY PLACE LARGE FORCE IN HONOLULU HONOLULU, b. 1.—Major F. C.

SAN QUENTIN, Feb. L—The reception at Warden Tompkins' residence last night, which took place after the presen- ‘tation of an engrossed set of resolutions and gbld watch chain, with a locket sult- ably insoribed, to the Warden, was dis- turbed by the most unearthly noises com- ing from the prison. Many of the guards and officers hurried to the prison, fearing an outbreak, but found it was nothing more than a jollification among the con- viots over the change in wardens. From time immemorial the convicts, on the change of wardens, have always indulged in outery, hurling insulting remarks at; the retiring warden and cheering the in- coming official until checked by the prison employes. - £ The officers, knowing.that there would be the usual rumpus last night, were fully prepared for the cohvicts. Several lengths « of fire hose were connected with the fire mains, and a deluge awalted the felons 1 they went beyond the limit. The water oure wag not necessary, however, as the ringleaders were taken out of their cells and sent to the dungeon for the night.

To-day Warden Edgar is at the helm of the prison .and ex-Warden John W. Tompkins is moving his household ef- fects to Oakland.
