Carp CnEture.

No more pleasant or more profitable
business can be INDUCED in by those
who have convenient places for con-
struction Of proper ponds, with a water
supply independent of Others, than the
propagation OF carp. Nearly three
years age Theodore Fischer, who lives
about two miles east of Oregon City,
procured six of these fish from Mr..
Davis in Sonoma County, CAL, for the
purpose of experimenting with them.
The fish were sent by express. Fischer
now has three ~ponds-the largest of
which is 50xl00 feeti and from his
plant he now has thousands Of carp of
various sizes. Last Spring ten Of the
young fry were taken from one pond
and placed in a smaller one by them
selves-the aggregate weight Of the ten
being one-hslf pound-where they We're
fed and attended to. Recently one of
these was caught and weighed and its
weight was a half pound, which shows
how rapidly they grow.

Frank James.

ST.. LOUIS, Sept. 6.-The PostDis
patch's special from Gallatin, Mo,
saws a large audience was in the court
house to hear Prosecuting Attorney
Wallace close for the state in the
Frank James trial. He said the ques-
ton before the jury was; is the arm
of the law or the arm of the bandit
strongest in Missouri The testimony
was taken up, and the action of the
defense in changing its course in the
face of the jury abandoning the Jim
Cummings theory, strongly com
mented upon. The defense had said
a great deal about the Rock Island
railroad to excite granger prejudice.
1t is not wounded capital that Calls
upon YOU to redress its wrongs; it is a
pool of the blood of labor, not capital,
that cries aloud for justice 1t is the
bleeding wounds of Mcmillan the
stone mason, that speaks. Wallace
then went into an analysis of
testimony, treating it from memory,
and in a remarkably clear and forci-
BILE manner, the jury was besought
to recall that in all the transactions of
the gang they were moved by a greed
for money alone, and chivalrie re-
venge for wrongs committed during
the war had nothing to do with it.
There was enthusiastic applause at
the close of his speech The balitf
then took charge of the jury which
retired at 1920 The prevalent idea
is that the jury will disagree or re-
turn a verdict of guilty of murder in

ST LOUIS, Sept Ga Bulletin dis
patch from Gallatin, Mo, says the
jury just returned a verdict of acquit-
tai in the Frank James case.
KANSAS CITY. Mo, Sept. 6-The
topic of conversation upon the streets
this evening is Frank James acquit-
tai. There are many who say they
expected it, but the majority say they
looked for a disagreement of the jury
Public sentiment can be quoted as
strong in condemnation Of the verdict
although there are those who argue
from a strict legal standpoint that the
jury was justified in acqutting; the
states evidence being made up of Lid
del's testimony supported only by cir
cnmstantial evidence The general
feeling, however, is one of disappoint-
ment and chagrin that the strong
chain of evidence woven by the state
failed to stand. Expressions of sym
pathy with the prisoner or satisfaction
over his acquittal are confined toavery
few who are and have been James
friends and can be taken in no way
whatever, as an indication of actual
public sentiment A frequent express
sion is that the verdict is an outrage
and an unjust stigma upon the state
The charges of jury-fXing are also
banded about.
