Corp Gagged.

Deputy Sheriff Bowers arrived at
home yesterday from Jefferson City
where he went to take Ed. Corp and
Birdie Coleman, sentenced to three
years each in the "pen." Mr.. Bowers
says he placed them safely in the
hands of the Warden and that they
were in full uniform yesterday morn
ing. Corp expressed Indignation at
the BAzOo for having written up his
statements concerning himself and
his intentions, claiming that its pub
licity would interfere with his success
in carrying them out, as the Warden
would be on to his racket. Before he
reached Jefferson City Corp weakened
considerably and requested Deputy
Bowers to say a good word for hun to
the Warden. That obliging func-
tiOnary not only promised to do so
but went so far as to breach the mat
ter to Deputy Bradbury when they
arrived.
"You can save your BREATH said
Mr.. Bradbury. Corp is better
known here than he is in Sedalia."
Notwithstanding his professions Of
humbleness, however, Corp could not
repress his braggadocio disposition
and on parting Mr.. Bowers a note
which he desired him to show to Mar
shall jackson and Officer James Cos
sage. The note reads as follows:
Edward A. Corp, the noted sneak
thief, broke Jail (calaboose) ON the
10Th of June and was caught the 7th
of July in Poplar Bluff, brought
back by Walter jackson, city marshal
of Sedalia, the son of -. / wish
he and James Gossage was in the low
est pits of -- and | could pour
hot lead down their throats."
The note was written on the margin
of a leaf torn from volume of "Odes
of Anacreon, "on which the following
stanza.s were marked F.:
"Time has shed its sweetest blooms,
All the future must be gloom,
Plutos is a dark abode,
Sa! the journey and the road,
And the g.ooEy travel Ger.
All, we can return no more"
Evidently, hard as ne is, Corp has
some serious moments, but there is
little room to believe that he
ever meditated suicide as the marking
Of the above stanzas would imply.

A deputy sheriff from Cameron,
Mo-, passed through the City yester-
day in charge of Nat Ryan, notori-
Gus cracksman, sentenced for three
years to the penitentiary for burglary.
Ryan was the companion of Black
Diamond, a once famous Kansas City
tough, who was killed at the time Ry-
an was arrested. The Kansas City
News in speaking of the
affair uses the fsllowing
rather uncomplimentary but probably
deserved language concerning her
metropolitan force.
"Black Diamond" and Nat Ryan,
two notorious toughs, who had their
own way in Kansas City with our
metropolitan police force, went down
to Cameron and attempted to do the
same way there, and got left. They
burglarized a store, but while secret
ing the goods, some $500 worth, were
discovered and in the pursuit "Black
Diamond" was killed. Ryan was
arrested, and to-day passed through
the city on his way to the peniten-
tiary with a three-years' sentence
before him. The two should have
in Kansas City and they
would not have Jared so badly"

heen mOlested be would have carried
them out.
ADA's SAY.
Ada stated that she was sixteen last
September, that her father owned and
resided on a farm near Holden,
that Der mo- her was dead and
her father had married again
She claims she is not well
treated at home and that she has been
working out for about year. She
met Garrison about two weeks ago
at Na"kham's boarding bonse where
she worked and he was guest. She
accom- panied him to church one Sun
day and her father being told of it
raised fuss about it. She admitted
that she had planned with Garrison TO
run away and 60 to Kansas TO marry.
When asked why she registered as
his wife she said he had told her TO
do so. She declared she would not
return home, that her father could
not make her and that she would 60
with Garrison. MY father would
not let my sister marry" fhe said,
"but she went to Kansas and married
in spite of him and i will do it too"
When reasoned with she declared she
had all confidence in young
Garrison, and showed dis
position to persevere in her course.
The opinion of the police is, that
both Garrison and Foster are in a.
plot to get the gill with them as their
mistress and keep her thus until they
weary of her and then leave her to
her fate, and certainly the circumstan-
ces surrounding the case, justify such
a conclusion, for, had Ada arrived
when expected, she and Garrison
would certainly have put up at the
hotel as man and wife.
Later.

account of the escapade of Ada Coy ;
the 16-year-old daughter of s. S. Coy, !
of Holden and her apprehension and
arrest in this city by Marshal Jackson. !

Mr.. Coy, who is a small imam and |
slightly crippled, arrived in the city
and at once sought his daughter.
After brief interview with her and
her lover, Garrison, Mr.. Coy request
ed Garrison's release, saying he had
neither money or time to prosecte him,
and as his daughter had promised to
return home and Garrison to not
again entice her away he would let
.he matter drop. Garrison was
released and Ada turned
over to her fathec.

SOILS FOR SHEEP.
The Different Portions OF the United
States Adapted to Sheep Raising

The Different Portions Of the United
States Adapted to Sheep Raising.
The soil areas adapted to sheep in
the United States. under modern sys-
TENS of cultivation, is. without doubt,
greater according to area than in any
other country on the globe; for the last
ten years has shown that the great
plains region and the Rocky Mountain
Valley regions, as we'll as the great
Basin and those portions of California,
Oregon and Washington Territory once
thought almost worthless for grazing,
are quite well adapted thereto.
From climatic point of view again,
all that region adapted to the cultiva-
ton of the grape is found to be con-
genial to sheep. So far as the United
States is concerned, as to the very best
zone, it will be, as to the northern
limits, line extending from Boston,
on the Atlantic, to the Pacific, through
Northern California, and south from
the Carolinas west to the Mississippi,
and thence southwest and west to
Southern California, including all the
elevated portion of Texas, but extend
ing both north and south according to
circumstances; SO that, in modified
sense much of the territory lying south
of the mouth of the ST. Lawrence, due
west to the Rocky mountains, and thence
northwesterly to the Pacific, may be
made available to the keeping of sheep
for their wool. The wild sheep of the
Rocky mountains (OUis Montana), in
fact, is found from the Mackenzie river
to Northern Mexico. The latitude of
Virginia west may be regarded as the
central line in the United States
where, in the keeping of sheep, fine
woods may be reared at the least ex-
pense in feeding and shelter, for statis-
tics show that the most excellent of the
fine woods are produced where the an
nual temperature is about fifty-eight
degrees Fahrenheit So a mean annual
of forty-tive degrees may
be regarded as the northern limit OF
temperature of profitable sheep-breed-
ing.-Breeder's Gazette.

HINTS ON PlOWIi!G.
SubsoilinE Valuable Addition to the
Preparation OF the Soil.

Subsoiiin;. Valuable Addition to the
Preparation of the Soil.
1t IS not many years since the theory
of trench-plowing was generally adyo-
Gated by theorists, and not until tho
practical demonstration showed the
fallacy of the idea as renovator of
the soil was it generally discal ded: A
very little consideration would have
shown, except in special soils for GER
tain special crops, whose root; ramlfy
deep, that trench blowing is a fallacy.
We have come to know that five
inches, measured against the land side,
is deep blowing for average crops, and
that eight inches would be considered
deep blowing for any crop ordinarily
cultivated on the farm.
Put while trench-plowing- turning a
sub-furrow completely on the top OF
the first furrow-is not good practice
as a rule, there is no objection to SUBJ
soiling-following in the furrow with
a subsoil plow which simply lifts, say,
six inches of the subsoil and drops it
back into the furrow, thus pulverizin2
the whole mass. This is valuable
addition to the preparation of the soil
for many crops But to get the best
results in this way, the soil, if not nat
urally well drained, should first be
t;le-drained. The reason is that stiff
clays are liable to be water-so aked at
particular seasons. When this occurs,
the water not being able to escape
quickly below, the soil to the whole
depth becomes like mortar-bed, and
upon drying becomes hard. But if I'M
derdrained the water percolates easily
to the tile and the soil remains dry and
friable because porous.
Mr.. John Lemmax, of Ohio, states
his experience in respect to deep plow-
ing, and also upon another point not
generally known in respect to blowing
hillsides. He says:
1T does not pay 20 plow too deep
for all grain crops, as they do not all
require the same depth to root. l have
noticed ever since had any thing
to do with blowing that land for wheat
Or oats, where the furrow was turned
uphill, always produced better crop
OF grain than that portion of the land
that was turned down-hill, as it was
plowed deeper. Turning up the cold
clay was not congeniai to the growth
of the small grain. For coin or pota-
toes it is different, rs they require
deeper culture, and the old-fashioned
way of marking for corn, with single
shovel, placed the corn down so that
the roots came in contact with top OF
soil turned under, and deep blowing
in dry weather would furnish more
moisture for CROP; the same with pota-
toes. n-ChicanO Tribune.
