The Fort Worth Live

The Fort Worth Live Stock
journal points out some of the
advantages to be gained by stock
men advertising their brands, and
says that one firm recovered $3.50
worth of stock by having their
brand inserted In that paper.
The fact is, cattle men are not
aware Of how much they are
benefited by advertising, and il
they would look at the matter in
the right light, every cattle man
IN this section of the country
would have his brand inserted IN
the INDEX.

English School Boys and Money.

1t. appears that the system Of Zip
ping" oys ut school has reached q Gull
minating point. Al Eton. for example,
some lads have returned this term with
as much ns $50 by way sof pocket
money. and one boy, nm creditably
informed, is left with the unc ,nlroled
expenditure of G650 for the year! Tip
pling is too often the result of this in
discriminate tipping. Instead of being
satisfied with n glass of beer after row.
ing up TO Henley, as in former days, the
Elonians must now needs have cham
pagne cup and other expensive drinks.
The cure for all this sort of thing is
simple and effectual; school should be
conducted OIL the principles of COM
monwealth. Each hoy on his arrival
should be made 10 give up every silver
in lis possession. and the money should
be placed in common fund, to be ]u-
dicipusly administered in the Shape of
weekly pocket-moncy for the benefit of
all alike. Parents with more money
than brains or breeding would speedily
cease to give such large sums ito their
bOysswhen they discovered that doing
SO no longer contributed t., their indi-
vi'iual gloriti alton or to that of their
young hope.uls.-z Whitehall Reote,o.

How to Deal with Rats.

A writer in the Scientific American
says: I'VE clean our premises Of these
detestable vermin by making white
wash yellow with copperas, and cover.
ing the stones and rafters in the cellar
with it. In every crevice in which a
rat may go. we put the crystals of the
copperas and scatter in the corners oi
he floor. The result was a perfect
stampede of rats and mice. Since that
time not football of either rat OF
mice has been around the house. Ev-
cry Spring coat of the yellow wash is
given the C liar rs purifier, rs rat
exterminator and no typhoid, dysentery
or fever attacks the family. Many per-
sons deliberately attract all the rats in
the neighborhood by leaving fruits and
vegetables uncovered in the cellar, and
sometimes even the soap is left open
for their r'galcment. Cover up every
thing eatable in the cellar and pantry,
and you will soon starve them out.
These precautions, joined to the service
of good cat, will prove as good a rat
externina'or as the chemist can pro-
vide. We never allow rats t be poi
soned in our dwelling; they are SO apt
to be be ween the walls and produce
much annoyance"

The Head Liner,

The professors of journalism. who
periodically tell us about newspapers,
have failed to notice comparatively
modern and a very important feature
of the newspaper. namely, the heal
lines. This is n department of tile pa-
per which has steathily conquered for
itself all influence which even newsDa.
per managers sometimes inadequately
recognize. 1t often happens that the
ingenious artist in this department is
really ediIing the paper. H. can con-
vry an impression which the writer's OF
rondrrnus leaders are en- ieavoring to
avoiI. He can create n doubt or awak-
IN u suspicion by single arifnlly-chos-
en- worI, or sow broadcast an opinion
which it may take columns of writing
to show is unfounded. Suggestions
that are burie'l in the bodies of articles
may attract no notice: but the flaming
headline takes the eye at once. and its
diagnosis of the matter which it criti-
cses may be very wide off the mark
without the average reader applying
any corrective. The headline largely
regulates the emphasis that is given
to the report Of current events.
Small mater in this way may be
magnified, and mere conjec ures invest
ed with ne'rly the dignity of establish.
ed facts. - I Toronto IM02.

was found that some OF the swell res.
taurants buy their pies for II cents of a
well-known pie-baker. These pies are
cut into five and even six pieces, and
these are sold at Is cents. The ''swell

HOWGATE sTILL AT LARGE.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRIBuSE.I

WASHINGTON, April 16.-Captain Howgate has
rot oeen heard from since his escape. His friends
nave represented to the authorities that he will re-
turn when the time TO be fixed for his trial ap-
proaches, and will not seek to eyade trial. but that
be will neither surrender himself nor be found until
that time. They say In his behalf that he is enti-
tied TO speedy trial, and that the probable post
ponement until next fall or winter, with bail fixed
90 high that it Is unattainabe is denial of justice
and Of the rights Of the citizens.
The officials do not credit these representations.
If there are any doubts of Captain Howgates guilt
OF any mitigating circumstances in connection with
las case, they have not been made public. Trial is
almost certain 10 result in conviction and imprsOn-
ment hence il is not thought probable that the
prisoner will ever voluntarily surrender himself.
reward Of $500 will probably be offered for his
arrest tomorrow.
Captain Howgates escape has been made the oc-
eason for attack upon Marshal Henry, the
allegation being that he is responsible for it. AS a
matter of fact, Marshal Henry did not know of the
order OF the Court giving permission for the pris
VneI 10 visit his home until after lie had escaped.
had the order been brought TO his personal atten-
non instead of to that of his deputy he could not
nave done otherwise than carry ii out, sending a
Daln along 10 guard the prisoner. The baiff who
Eos caught mapping on this occasion has been many
years III his position where he has earned the repu-
'aton Of careful man.
