COOKED FOOD FOR HOGS.
There is no advantage in cook
ing corn or meal for hogs at any
time except in the tall when a
mash of boiled potatoes and meal
does very well, even to tIe hogs
that are being fatted; but from
numerous experiments it appears
that dry corn will make as much
pork as it will cooked. Hogs
that are penned at this season of
the year. and during the summer,
may be fed in part on clover, cut
and brought fresh daily to them.
MANAGEMENT OF HENS.
A little dry earth placed in the
bottom of their nest boxes is ben
eficiaI for sitting hens, especially;
in very warm weather; and sprink-
lie little sulphur among the straw
or hay to drive away lice. Place
the nests upon the ground, pro-
tected from the drippings from
the perches. Eleven eggs to hen
are enough for a sitting until
June or July, when thirteen will
not be too many, if not very large.
Clean out your hen house once
week, and occasionally whiteWash
it, perches and all. Give your
fowls a box of wood ashes to
wallow in, and they will seldom
have lice upon them. Always
mark the eggs, when you set hen,
by drawing a pencil mark around
each; and mark the date of COM
mencing to sit on each nest box.
Have the sitting hens as far apart
as possible, so they will, on COM
ing off to eat, return to their own
nests. If one has the time to
spare, it is a good plan to take off
all the sitting hens in the morn
ing, feed and water them, and let
them dust themselves in the ash
box, if they are inclined to, and
then see that each hen returns to
her own nest before the eggs be-
come cold. No better coops can
be made than to make them of a
triangular shape, two boards WIDE,
go to "a inches) about three feet
high and four feet and half wide
at the bottom. The back side to
be boarded up tight and the front
to be lathed up, mason's lath)
with open space about two inches
wide; then nail laths over the
cracks where the coOps are board
ed, to keep out rains, and you
will have as good coops as can
be made, if you were to spend
five dollars on each. Feed corn,
oats, wheat, barley or buckwheat;
but corn and oats are sufficient,
once a day on each.

City of Emporia
II. E. Norton ct al


Motion for rehearing. Opinion.
BY the Court. Brewer j.
A motion for rehearing in this
case has been made and an extern
sive written argument filed in sup
port thereof.
The point made Is this. The
court in the prior opinion rested
the decision upon the curative eff
feet of the 4lst sec. of CHI. 100 of
the laws of 1872. The work, pay
ment for which the city was seek
ing to collect, was done in 1871.
This curative section was enacted
subsequently in 1872, and we held
it valid and applicable to the pro-
ceedIngs in question. Now counsel
coatends that this 4lst sect. is sub
stAntially the same as the 10Th sect.
sof CHI. 90 of the laws of 1871, and
must therefore be considered as en-
acted in 1871. aud before instead OF
after the work. He rests this claim
upon . rule for the construction of
statutes found on page 999 of the
Genl. Stat. which reads:
'SThe provisions of any statu te
so far as they are the same as those
of any prior enactment shall be
construed IS q continuation OF
such provisions and not as q new
enactment" This as all the other
rules of construction, is subject
however to this important qualifi.
cation which prefaces them. "Iu
the construction of the statutes Of
this state the following rules shall
be observed unless such construc
tion would be inconsistent with thu
manifest intent of the legislature
or repugnant to the context of the
statnte."
Now in determining the intent O
the Legislature, we are not limited
to mere consideration of the lang,
uage employed. We may properly
look to the purposes to be accom-
pllshed, the necessity and effect o
Its enactment under the differen
constructions suggested.
Thus IL the legislature shoul,
pass at one session an act for rais
ing revenue, which should specif
no year, but simply direct the lev
of Q certain tax, and the succeedin
legislature should pass an act in ex
actly the same language, no on
could contend that the secon

ARIZONA.
Wonders Of Nature and Art In tho Wild
Southwest.

In years long gone by, Arizono
evidently y was peopled by a large and
industrious population. This il
most conclusively shown by the vast
and extensive ruins which yet remain
Ruins of cities, covering extensive
plains, now desolate and peopled
only by the lizard and snake re-
mains of bitches and artificial water
courses still exist, showing that
large areas of land were cultivated
by those ancient people, who had
evidently attained a high degree of
civilization.
They were, Ms all the aborigines
of Arizona now are, worshippers of
the God of Day-the sun. The
geology of Arizona is one of it's most
wonderful features. Indeed, almost
every formation known to geologists
exists in various parts of the terri
tory, and there are also many curious
freaks of nature unknown to other
parts Of the globe. But the great
est wonder of all the mighty won-
ders of the Pacific slope is the
Grand Canon of the Colorado, the
crowning wonder of the natural
world, before which Niagara droops
to insigniticance, and even Yoremite
pales. For over three hundred
miles the Rio Colorado cuts it's way
through the rock, leaving the walls
rising in many places to perpcn-
dicular height of over five thousand
feet. Down, down through the
many formations capped with lava,
it has cut it's silent way during the
ages, laying open to the nwe-stricl-
ell geologist the inmost secrets
of his science, showing him MS is
shown nowhere else in the world, in
one mighty volume, examples of the
most interesting periods and groups,
making clear things before uncertain
and changing scientific theories into
established facts. The flora and
fauna of Arizona arc different in
many respects from those of the rest
of the world; different even from
lands within our own borders. The
ccre1s gigantcus here reaches size
that is wonderful, often rising like
II tlutei column fifty and even sixty
feet high. The agava Americana,
yucca, brcvifolia and ignum vitae
are by no means rare. Deer and
antelopes are plentiful while in the
wooded portion, the wild turkey, bear
and panther abound. Among rep
tiles the horned rattlesnulsc and
helodermn nro rnrnli"l, While cent? &.
pedcs, scorpions and tarantulas are
plenty, and the variety of lizards is
legion. But the main dependence Of
Arizona must be in the vast, but us
yet undeveloped, mineral lands which
lie within her border. The noun
tains are one mightynetwork of gold
and silver bearing lodges, and what
little has been done toward the
working Of these has astonished all
connected with the country.

A Horrible Death.

WELL KNOWN JEwELRY MERCHANT MYsTE-
RroUsLY BURNED TO CRISP IN HIS STORE.
NEW HAVEN, May 2.-Early this morning
the Fire Department., in response to an
alarm, proceeded up Chapel street, when,
opposite Exchange Building, they discover
ed smoke issuing from the windows of
Alfred l. Bethells jewelry store. There
was strong smell of burning cloth, and
the Fire Marshal ordered his men to break
into and enter the building.
A SITTING CORPSE.
This required the work of few moments
only. and resulted in finding the body of
Mr. Bethel in the rear of the store, seated
in chair near the stove, burned almost to
a crisp. The body WAS instantly removed
to the sidewalk and a stream of water
turned upon it, but every effort to recusci-
tate it was unavailing. Later it was re-
moved to the Morgue, where it was inspec-
ted by DR.. Anderson, who pronounced life
extinct. Tho left breast and side were hor-
ribly burned and charred, the abdomen
bloated as if exposed to intense heat, and
every shred of clothing wss In cinders. In
dications pointed to the fact that deceased
had come to his death some hours before
the fire alarm was sounded.
MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES.

actly how Mr.. Bethel met his death. On
Monday morning he went to his store as
usual; but, complaining Of feeling faint,
was conveyed home in carriage. Toward
night he returned and expressed himself
as in good physical condition. He was seen
by several friends, in the evening, and ap-
peared to be in usual good spirits. In the
opinion of some, MIR. Bethel died of heart
disease while seated in his chair that a
cigar which he had been smoking had fallen
from his fingers and ignited his clothing,
with the sad result as above. 1t is believed
that the fire did not produce suffocation,
and that he died without suffering.
POSSIBLE SUICIDE.
Mr.. Bethel was widely known and highly
respected as a merchant and citizen. He
was member of tho Masonic fraternity,
and had attained his thirty second degree
in that order. His age was about forty
years.
The finding of pistol near the chair
where the boiy was found would seem to
