Nh. JAMES W. MORROW, a we'll known
and prominent farmer Of Hancock coun'
ty, while engaged in hauling timber on
Monday last, met with an accident which
caused his death. The steubenville Her
aid says: He was engaged in cutting
timber on his place and hauling 1t 10 4
neighboring saw mill, and had left The
woods, where hired man was cutting
with log sixteen feet long and two feel
in diameter, chained on a lumber sled
the rear end dragging on the ground
There we're no witnesses Of the death
but It Is evident that on coming 10 d
depression in the road, into which the
sled descended, the end Of the timber
on the ground became comparati sely
elevated, breaking the chain. Mr.
Morrow was sitting on the log driving,
and when Il rolled off the sled fell under
1t and was crushed to death, probably
almost instantly. The mules stood still
and remaining there for some time atten'
ton was attracted from u neighboripp
house and q boy was sent over tosee what
was the matter, who found the body lying
under the log. No external injury was
visible, and he was probably smothered
10 death. Assistance was procured and
the remains taken;to his house about hall
mile distant. Mr.. Morrow was about
40 years Of age, and leayes n wife and
three children.

1he winter Porls Pacl.ing..

From the Cincinnati Price Current.
We are still without full returns Of
the winter packing season, which has
never before been the case at this period
within our experience. Neither St. Lou
is, indianapolis or Louisville have YET
furnished reports. In regard to interior
points there are about one hundred from
which complete returns have not yet
come TO hand, Of which forty. five packed
each 1000 or more last year. With def.
mite returns from Chicago, Cincinnati
and Milwaukee, and close approxima.
tioxs for St. Louis, indianapolis and Lou
isville, the total packing Of these places
reaches 4,5730C0, against 1921 ,065 last
year, an increase Of about l $4,000.
In regard to interior points our returns
indicate that the aggregate number will
not vary essentially from l,s5O,0o0
against last years 1,s10,43. Thus the
aggregate packing in the West for the
winter ia shown to have been approxi-
ma,ely 4. 425, 900 hogs, against last years
total Of 5,l0l 1903, an increase Of 1895,
900 in number.
AT Chicago the increase in the net
weight OF hogs ia 1910 pounds, at Gin
cinnati 7.4s pounds, and at Milwaukee
1901 pounds. These points represent
$685., 500 hogs, with an average increase
Of Il. 20 pounds 10 net weight, or l401
pounds gross. We do not expect the 9th.
er large cities to show so great an aver.
age increase. The increase in average
yield Of lard at Chicago is A pounds, Gin.
cinnati 2,76 pounds, and Milwaukee 9.S6
pounds per head.
The total production Of barreled pork
the past winter at the six cities was APP
proximately $4,000 barrels, Of which
about 475, 900 we're mess. The total pro.
duction the previous winter was 1920
barrels at these places, Of which 349,9s7
were mess. The increase Is about s., 900
barrels OF all kinds, mess showing an in.
crease Of 125,0O0, this cut having been
relatively more largely made.

Rarely does one hear Of lady's at

the exercise Of great care, In rearinf

male weighs about $50 pounds, and the
female perhaps City pounds less. They
have been at the house on Howard street
since last September, and until within Q
month have had the run Of the place

freedom. As ameasure OF caution the Pc

strained, and their quarters are now
more limited than formerly, although
they have a safe outdoor run and room
adjoining the Kitchen, with only strong
wire door separating the apartments
Mrs. Lincoln Is as free with her pets as
ladies are with their poodles. She plays
with them, feeds them from her hands
and has taught them various tricks. They
will kiss her at her bidding, jump through
hoop, &c. Before the police reatric-
tions were placed upon them, the animali
were accustomed to walk into the kitchen
or parlor among guests, and go back to
their quarters without offering 10 harm
any one. A year ago the lioness used TO

lar TO that on the staircase; then we
passed on an outer gallery into the
Throne hall, and from thence into q
small room, where we saw Plus TX lying,
as II asleep, on low bed, which stood In
the center. Five priests sat on bench
at the end Of the room, back OF the head
Of the bed, reciting prayers; two OF the
ouaIdis noble, with their drawn swords
covered with Grape, stood on guard; there
were four huge, lighted candles 10 high
stands on the fioor,-two at the bead, two
at the feet Of the dead pope. The bed
was oapitonne with red silk damask, and
had cover OF the same rich stuff; on this
cover lay the body Of the pope, dressed
| in his usual robe Of white wooden, the
mOsstta rosa, or cape, bordered with
ermine, the eamauro, or hood on his head,
aIso bordered or lined with white ermine,
and red cloth shoes on his feet. The
hands were folded one over the other on
the chest, and under them the crucitx
his holiness held, kissed and gave the
solemn benediction with just before the
dread agony Of death came on. II was
startling to see how life.like he looked.
During the last year or two there have
been many distressing marks oil old age
in the pope's face, but as saw the holy
father dead last Saturday he looked as
he did two years ago, when | first recei-
we'd his benedlction. was near enough
to touch the body and to see the face
plainly. There was gentle smile on 1t;
Ii seemed as IL he was at the moment oil
awakening-that his splendid dark eyes
would open on US. could only think
OF the Just made perfect who rest in the
peace Of the Lord. Every one who hiss
seen the late pope has certainly noticed
the beauty Of his hand-white, we'll
formed, dignified and gracrful In motion.
These beautiful hands were most perfect
| ly preserved; the sparkling oriental am.
ethyst ring was on the finger, and al.
most looked to see the benediction hand
raised to bless us. We were only three;
we knelt at the side Of the bed awhile;
then approached the feet, knelt and
kissed them; knelt again on the other
side, and then passed out Of the still
room Of death. A young Protestant
friend who was with me pressed a bunch
OF bay laurel leaves which she had Just
gathered on the P;ncio, to the pope's feet;
after ward she said: "Wnen l kissed the
feet 1t seemed as II l were pressing my
lips to Clos leaves"
