TO-DAY gives the following information:
Last Monday Joe Smith, of this
Place, found a perfectly formed pet
rified ham two miles from here. 1t is
ofa dark brownish color. An ordina-
~ ham of the same size would
weigh fully fifty. 1t would be a
valuable addition to any museum.
Whether it was ever a ham
or not is not known. Mr.. Smith will
not tell where he found it, as he wants
to look for the rest of the hog soon.
The rest of the hog is anxiously
awaited. II a quarry of petrified
pigs is unearthed at Smiths Ferry it
would be high time to bore for lard
oil.

THAT SETTLES IT.
Brought Into Competition with the
World, the Best Carries OF
the HOnors.

At the great Centennial Exhibition of
1915, the leading products of all the branch
es of the Worlds industry were assem-
bled at Philadelphia. To carry off prize
in the face of that tremendous competition
was task of no ordinary difficulty. In
ventiOns and preparations for the allevia-
ton of pain and the cure of disease were
present in the greatest possible variety, rep
senting the skill and the profoundest study
of the age, aud i, may be of vital import
ance to you, personally to know that the
highest and only medal given to rubber
Porous plasters. was awarded to the manu-
fac,urers of BENSON'S CAPCINE POR-

Prussian Army.
J. H. THOMPSON. AN, NJ. D., WASH
ing,on, d. c.
CD WHITE. NJ. D., New Orleans.
ERNEST FLEISCH, NJ. d., Austria.
The decision was afterwards confirmed
by the medical jury at the last Paris Ex-
position. Knowing the value of such high
and unbiased testimony, the medical pro-
fession, both in the United States and in
Europe, quickly threw aside tn old, slow
acting plasters they had been using, and
adopted Benson's in their regular practice.
That physicians and surgeon, of the broad
est reputation did this. distinctly proves
the intrinsic merit of the article.
1t is no more than just to add that the

mated by the prejudices which retarded the

Near one of our Atlantic seaports
there resides an old whaling captain
commonly known as Uncle Gurdon.
To keep from getting rusty he made
his home on the river bank, where he
could keep a boat aid FISH or paddle
about as he liked. The place was
about FIVE miles from the city, and as
occasion required Uncle Gurdon and
his wife would journey downward for
the purpose Of shopping. Reaching
the city, the horse and wagon would
be left at the water-trough on the
parade and each would 90 in different
directions, carrying their bundles tn
this common receptacle, the first

one of these shopping excursions
Uncle Gurdon made several trips to

bundles-a sign that his wife was
busy. Having completed his pun chases.

and went on toward home.
When nearly half way there he was
met by another friend, who stopped
to have chat.
"How do you do to-day, Uncle Cur

"Oh, nicely, nicely; though I'm

"Woried What about?"
"Well. you see, I've been to town

Color of Short-Horns.

Breeders Gazette.
So much has been said in reference to
colors OF this pre-eminent breed of cattle that
the heading above may prevent some from
reading the little | have to say upon this
subject. An experience of many years in
breeding justifies the opinion hold upon
this question, that the red. white and roam
are oolors naturally belonging to the race,
and that there is neither merit nor demerit in
either, but simply matters of TASTE For my
own part, l have my decided preference for
the rich roam which is not found in any
other breed, but is clearly and distinctly
found in the purely bred as we'll as in the
grades of this grand race of CATTLE The
clamor for red Shorthorns has kept large
numbers of bulls in the shed that should
have been consigned to the SHAMELESS while
many valuable animals of light colors have
been sacrificed to this craze entertaintained
mostly by young or very inexperienced
breeders. The English breeders have not
given way to this prejudice, as regret to
say, some have done in this country, but al
here to their favorite colors, largely of roam
and white, judging by the exhibits last year
at their three largest fairs, when seyenty-six
prizes were awarded to the Shorthorn classes,
forty-six Of which went to roan ten to
whites, fourteen to red and white, and six
to reds. Would not little more frmness
on the part of Shorthorn breeders in stand
ing by their colors soon overcome this preju-
dice and be OF general benefit to the coun-
trv?

Further Extracts from the Stolen Report
The Governor Ready to Answer.

ST. LOUIS Oct 16.-The Post Dispatch con-
tinues its revelations of the testimony given
before the late grand jury regarding the
gambling ring and the police department.
It prints this afternoon ten columns of evil
dence E. J. White. attorney of ex-Police
Commissioner Kinkead swore that he in
formed Governor Crittenden that the resigna-
ton sent him by McChesney, alleged to be of
the gambling ring, was a forgery, and that
the Governor insisted on Kinkead's sending
him another, aud that after parleying and
compromising, it was finally settled that
genuine resignation should take effect Oct
LIST, Thomas E. Tut, president of the Third
National Bank, testified that he demanded
blank designations of two gentlemen,
who could have been appointed police
commissioners on that condition, but they
refused, and that the idea and suggestion of
blank designations originated solelywith Gov
ernor Crittenden and they were for his USE
Charles Green, president of the Fair Associa-
ton, testified that Mr.. Tut demanded
blank resignation from him, for the Gov
ernor, but he refused. EX-Police Commits
sioner Boland testified to the same facts. Ex-
Commissioner Kinkead narrated the circum-
stances of his resignation, and how he in
formed the Governor that it was a forgery
aent by Warren McChesney. He narrated
how the ring had tried to find out if the
commissioners ever were acquainted with
loose women, so that they might get them
in their power.
In the Court of Appeals an application
was made for information, asking the police
board to produce its records of the last meet

At the Grand Theater, on Saturday even

the biggest of the trio, thrashed him sound

until he finally escaped. The other two in
continently bolted. Mr.. Rogers called at

possible, II the writers of the note to Miss
Palmer were in any manner connected with

of the oven door to test the heat is not al

about three minutes; if at the end of that

be put in; but if burned, the heat must first
be lessened.
