I , "The esfecte of focd butter-msk- ing ia tl at the period of time between the milling of the cow and the making of the butter should be minimised." This is the testimony of Mr. Hudson, a grtat English butter expert. It is di rectly to the point. : Grtat quantities of butter are made in every psrt of the oouctry that has; been left standing tor so long a time that its quality has be come impaired. If it is desired to make perfectly sweet butter the cream should be churned daily; such butttr should be marketed at pnee and eaten before there is time for! acidity to beoome set tled. It : is next to impossible to so thoroughly eliminate every particle of milk from the I butter as to prevent acidity taking plaoe if the butter is kept ny length of time, particularly in warm weather But that vhich is intended to e kept fer somt time is better if acidity .s deveUped in the cream before the .burning: Cream should be allowed to -iper, by wbiohiis meant-the formation i a or tain degree of acidity. When indcroiii? this process it is well to stir it tw or three, times a day, devoting t v-ral miriutes to this purpose each mi9.

TBI aOTBCa 0VTHB "JIM CCMMINOS" LIT TBKS DCRANGa VILS FOTHXBIKO BiM, TBI MKBSINQIB UPPCIID TO BB IFNCCIHT SOMB NBAT WCXK ON TBI PAKT Of TBI PIJ IIXTOK S Liavimwokth, Kaksas. Dec. 28. When . the Rock Island train arrived last night, four men, in charge of anoth er, hastily left the rear coach, trd jump ing into a back, were rtpicly driven to ward North Leavenworth. A reporter oiught a glimpse of th man covered by the other four and saw the well known face of Fred. Witrook. The detectives with their prisoner were driven directly to the Witrock residence; When the reporter, who had followed, reached the bouse,-the party had entered and in a moment thereafter, moans could be heard in the house, coming from the mother and two sisters of the now noted train robber. The reporter besieged the house but failed to gain admittance until reinforced by Col. Anthony of the Times; who employs one of Witrook's sisters as a book keeper. With An thony's aid an entrance to the house was effected, but' both! men were promptly ejected by the deteotives Their! subsequent efforts to interview the inmates of the heuse through olosed doors and windows produced small re sults.': But shortly after midnight the deteotives who brought Witrock to the city left the house with their prisoner and repaired to a hotel,; where they took a room and retired. ; While two office rs were absent with young Witrock from the house, Mrs. Witrook was in duct d to tell what she knew of the ease, as her sen's connection with it could not be concealed. Between broken sobs she admitted that Fred had participated in the robbery; but would : be released, as be had oonfessed all to the detectives. She said that shortly after , the robbery Oeoar Cook came to Leavenworth and visited her one evening, and after talking to her for some time said Fred was in trouble; that he had made a large sum of money on a wheat deal in Chicago and had some difficulty with a broker over the matter, which ended by his shooting the latter; that he had to fief frcm the country and wanted his mother to take care of his monev until she heard from him further. This she agreed to do and the money was left in her possession. , Seme t'me after this, another young man, who lives in this city, but whose identity she declined to divulge, called and left another package of money, and on two other occasions two other young ssen called .at different times and left money whioh they said had come from Fred. When asked if she knew the amount of the sum total, she said she did not; that they were large packages, but she had never counted it, believing inr plieitly in Fred's story and thinking she was aiding him by caring for his property, and not dresming, but that be came by it otherwise than honest ly ; i she had no occasion to use any of the money, having money of her own. When asked how deteotives happened to be here search ing her house, she sid: "When I heard of Fred's arrest I immediately wrote to the Expreis Company, telling them about the money and requesting them to come to Leavenworth, .and that is un doubtedly why they are here." This seemed to be about all that Mrs. Wit- reck could tell and the reverter passed to another room where two or the de teotives were seated. In response to questions as to the amount of money they bad recovered, they disclaimed all knowledge of any money having bees found at the house. He was told what Mrs, Witrock had said and then admitted that a large amount had been received When asked where it bad been secreted, he said that some of it was found undc the barn, but .not on Mrs. Witrook' premises, lie afterward denied, thm story and said that the details as told by Mrs. Witrcek were substantially correct. At this juncture a knock was beard and the effioers who had been ab sent with Fred Witrock returned. Mr. Pinkerton was ached about the amount of money recovered. He at first denied that that was what he was here for end that any money had been recovered. When asked what an empty tin box had contained, which was standing near by, he said it was about $'y,UUU and bore all indications of not having been tampered with, but he oould not m v. . it' i say.; Dir. rmxerton tuuy exonerated Mrs. Witrcek and family. They bad only done what others would do under the oircumstanccs. They had done notour wrong and he anticipated thai when they come to examine what they have got they will find in in the same condi tion as she reooived it. This ended the talk on the subject. Before going to bed Robert Piuker ton 'visited the Times cfibe and corrobo rated in his statements all . that had been said by Mrs. Witrock. He refused to give a micute of the transaction but deolared that no promises or induce ments were held out to Witrcek to make oonfeseions ; that whatever he did was done voluntarily, without: promise that he would not be prosecuted. oould not be ascertained whether addi tional arrests will be made or not. Witrock was the leader of the rob brS who stole $55,000 or $60,000 from the express cir on the St. Louis and Ban Francisco road October 25 ih. His arrest with that of his pals was one of the most skilful jobs ever performed by the Pinkertone. The fire men nabbed were Frederick Witrock, who is the author of the "Jim Oummings" let ters, and who is claimed to be the man who perpetrated the robbery; W. W. Haight, an ex-employe of the oompany; Thomas Weaver, aChiogolaundryman; Edward Kinney, a brother-in-law of Witrock, upon whose person was found a oonsideroble portion of the express money, and 05r Cook, who hid Wit rook after the robbery and divided the money and mailed the "Jim Cummings" letters. Witrock was engaged in the coal trade in Chicago, and he was never before known to be in any criminal enter prise. The express messenger Fother ingham, who wss charged with com plicity in the robbery, is supposed by tbe Pinkertons to be innocent War Locked for Id Vienna. Visnna, Dec. 29. The Vit nna press 73 becoming convinced that Russia is determined on war. Reports of in creased Raiaian armaments are contin ually coming to hand from " various sources. The latest jntelaieccce of this kind is to the effect that 300,000 Rus sian troops have been ordered to mass in Kcff, and that the occupants of teD thousand houses have reoeived official notification that soldiers will soon be billeted in them. The Neue Frie Press plainly hints that the best thing Aus tria can do is to submit to Russia's wishes in order to avoid a conflict. The Tag-Blatt and other papers bitterly de plore the faet that "Austria is com pelled i to abandon her Balkan pro gramme because she has been left in the lurch by Biemarok, who has made peace with Russia."

Lord Randolph will also, the (jhasette says, maintain that the govern ment's army and navy estimates which he opposed were excessive.

Within the cast week quite a sensa tion has been created here by the death of aa old lady, Mrs. Newbury. 8he wss said ti hsve been 103 years old, and far forty years had been a beneficia ry of the Presbyterian church, receiv ing six dollars each month for her sup port. She was supposed to be in very destitute circumstances, but, upon her death, three bigs of valuables weighing sixteen pounds were discovered in an old trunk. On the following day, her dan3hter who was very Ul at the same time, died, and though remon strated with to tell where the money came from, and what disposition must be made of it, would not do so After her death, the bags were opened and were fouad to contain $351.75 in coin, a gold watoh, several land deeds and a considerable amouut in that cur rency wh'elx -represents nv thing on God's earth now." Sinoe the discovery of this "treasure-trove," innumerable heirs have como forward, it is said, and it will not revert to tbe Univers.ty of the st&te, as was at first supposed. Oa last Friday morning, J . Pat Brew er, the negro who shot young Frei i a of 11 j wan at Chapel Hill was arrested in this city.

The plant will be run by water power, and it is thought that, in a short time, the motive power will te considerably increased, as the demand for the lights is steadily increasing. !
