they have already removed their herds out
Of our reach We cannot st&Yyc them. In

slowly. but | believe there is not one OF the
10000 soldiers now encampcd on the plains
around Kairwan who is not heartily tired
Of an expedition which as yet has done
nothing but call forth misplaced energy.
\ III Der of the best houses at Kairwan
hive becnrequisitioned forthe French troops;
but although the proprietorS have in c0Hsc-
quencc becnput to greatincOnyenienCe they
~StuIioa5ly avoid, as, indeed, they have
done since the occupation, giving the French
authorities any reason for complaint. AS
had been anticipated, the Arabs have reap
poared in the SuSa district. Several hun

driven away by the inhabitants they pill
Jagged several farms during their retreat.

The translation of the despatch from the
the British Government to Sir Z. Mal2t,
published to-day in tie Egyptian official
and the French ana Arabic journals, states
that the British policy in Egypt is opposed
to any intervention. On the contrary it
will stronglysupport the native autonomous
Government within the limits Of the rights
accorded by the Firmans from Turkey.
England does not favour separation from
Turkey. This link prevents any danger Of
a foreign Intervention and rival ambitions.
With these ends in view, which France
shares, England and France have worked
together to establish good Government,
bat one great reform remains to be effected
viz good and systematic justice between
native and native, which must be done by
Egyptians and not by an extension Of the
international tribunals. The despatch ter
inmates with the warning that this policy
would be changed If anarchy or disorder
occur in Eglpt.-Yj~c5.

EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE.

Maj. Raflelle Piccoli, volunteer OF
a thousand" and one of the heroes OF
Garibaldis Sicilian expedition, has re-
Gently laid hands ON his life in q wholly
unprecedented manner at Catanzaco,
where he had been for some years past
residing with his wife and five children.
The Piccoli family had long suffered ex-
IRENE poverty, its entire income con-
sisting of 800 lre--about 912-granted
to the Major by the italian Government
in recognition of his splendid services in
1860. 1t appears that this unfortunate
warrior and patriot, weary of the hope
less struggle against the direst want,
determined to put an end to his troubles
by suicide. Having carefully sharpened
a large nail, he shut himself up one day
in his bedroom and proceeded to carry
out his desperate resolve. He wrapped
up a heavy stone in rags, SO that his
children in the adjoining chamber might
not hear the noise of hammering, and
setting the point of the nail against his
temple, drove it in up to the head with
out uttering q single cry or groan. When
his wife entered the bedroom some time
afterward she found Piccoli corpse,
stretched out upon the floor, with
the picture of the Virgin Oh his breast
and the fatal stone tightly grasped in
his right hand. Great public sympathy
has been awakened in Italy by the mel
ancholy fate of this gallant Garibaldian.

The Home and Farm, Louisville,
Kentucky, says: Attorney-General
Hardin, of Frankfort. KY, is the
owner of one of the most extraordi-
nary living Jersey cows; and she is
as beautiful as she is good. In sin.
gle day her yield of butter has been
as much as two pounds ten ounces.
and from the time of calving-May
22-up to this date, the yield has
been no less than two pounds four
ounces. Tested for four days in sue.
cession, at the last Of June, the aver
age yield Of butter per day was two
pounds eight ounces. or at the rate of
seventeen and half pounds per week.
Shortly after calving she gave thirty
six pounds of milk per day, now the
yield of milk is from twenty-eight to
thirty-one pounds. This Jersey has
not yet attained the full measure of
her powers-at least this much is to
be misunderstanding that she is still
no more than heifer. She is a prize
and it would take Il big sum to buy
her.

The New York Court of Appeals has
decided in favor of the legality of the
marriage contracted by the late VIM. r.
Hynes, wealthy citizen, with Mrs.
May +. Saunders in 1871, while in Lon
don. He gave her ring in the pres
ence of witnesses, and told her he would
recognize her as his lawful wife 30 long
as she remained true and honest
woman. He repeated the ceremony
while crossing the channel, and repeated
his declaration i'll France. She remained
with him up to his death, in 1874; but
the sisters of Mr.. Hynes refused to
recognize her or her children as legal
heirs, and litigation ensued as to the
validity of the marriages. The decision
Of the Court Of Appeals confirms the
decisions of the two lower courts, and
the sisters OF the deceased will have to
vacate the property owned by their de-
ceased brother, and account for the
profits derived from the estate since his
death.

To What Age srtlI.Co,rs Breed.

Prof. Fleming says, that cows have
been known to breed after they were
90 years old; but the most remarkable
case that we are now able to recall.
is that of tho Short-hOrn cow Cherry
by Waterloo $3.50 bred by Mr.. John
Stephenson, of Wolviston, England.
This COW was calved Dec. Goth, 1922,
dropped her first calf Jan. 10th. 1925,
and continued TO breed regularly
every year up to February, 1916
when she dropped her sixteenth calf,
being then in her 10th year. Another
very remarkable case was that OF
Red Rose by Windsor (e0S). This
cow was calved in 1912, and produced
sixteen calves; the last birth being
twin heifers, dropped when she was
Is years old. There are several in
stances on record Of cows breeding
up to the 18th, 10th and 18th year;
but these are Of course, exceptional.

breed before they are IL years old.

THE lines OF railways the five di-
visions of the earth cost, in round num-
bers, SIG, Geo, 000,000, and would, &C.
cording to Baron Kolb, reach eight times
round the globe, although il is but little
over half II ce1tury since the first rail-
way worked by steam was opened be-
tween Darlington and Stockton, Sept.
81, 1925, and between Manchester and
Liverpool, Sept. Is, 1880. 1t is shown
that in France, previous to Che exist
ence Of railways, there was one passen-
ger in every 335. 0G9 killed, and one out
of every $4,000 wounded, whereas be-
tween 1895 and 1875 there was but one
in SITS, 800 killed, and one III $50, $50
wounded, so that We may infer that the
tendency TO accidents is yearly diminish
ing. Railway travelling in England is
attended with greater risk than in any
other country in Europe. A French
statistician observes that, il person
were to live continually in railway car
riage and spend all his time in railway
TRAVELLING, the chances in favor Of his dy-
ing from Il railway accident would not
occur until he was $50 years old.

immense cinnamon bear sprang from

Wolfken being unable to use his rife
and having no knife. His companions
clambered into tree, and, after risky
shots, succeeded III killing the bear.
They then descended and approached
