negro jackson, but that in touching Il with
his finger that the surface readily gave
way, as il 1t had been crushed in with
some blunt instrument. II is possible that
this aged man was sand-bagged, his per-
son and clothing arranged SO as to thwart
suspicion OF the deed. The theory that he,
a transient passenger, so well preserved in
body, and presumably in mind, could have
wandered TO so lonely spot, deliberately
undressed himself, which every indication
shows and have fallen dead, Is not alto
gether tangible and necessarily evokes in
quiry as to the actual cause OF this mystic
FERROUS death.
Early yesterday morning an interesting
controversy began between Squire John
]. Barry and County Undertaken John
Walsh over the money found afterward,
as described in the foregoing. About $50
o'clock one Of the colored jurymen of in
quest informed the acting coroner of the
find, giving substantially the same state
ment Of the money bags size as the others
referred to. Immediately after hearing
the jurynan's story Squire Barry proceed
ed TO Mr.. Walsh's establishment to learn
the contents, recover them, and afterpaying
funeral expenses, turn the remainder over

claimant appeared. Imagine his surprise
when the undertaken refused to give any
information further than that he had the
money, and that the idea Of giving IL up
to the official applicant had never entered
his mind. There was no extra parleying.
The magistrate called upon the criminal
court judge and attorney general. There
again he was cast to sea, being informed
that there was no way to reach IL. To
Probate Judge Galloway he repaired, but
received the informal opinion that the
case had not been properly brought
before him. Mr.. Walsh announced that
he would give the remains decent
interment, take out letters OF
administration as debtor, retain his
burial account and commissions, and thus
wind up the case. Mr.. Barry, actuated by
a sense Of duty. from his connection with
the case in the first instance, related the
situation TO County Attorney Jordan, and
this gentleman called upon Messrs. Turley
& Wright, attorneys for Mr.. Walsh. At a
late hour in the afternoon il was learned
from Mr.. Walsh that he would turn over
the money to Acting Coroner Barry, in the
presence Of attorneys on both sides. The
remains were buried in Calvary cemetery.

REGULARDUDE BURGLARS
A -acCH HAUL CELEBRATED IN
BUMPERS OF WINE.
The Residence of Mr. Charles DeGarls.
on waldran Avenue, Favored by
Clandestine Callers-Mr. B. D. Barnes
Resorts to His Reliable Gun.

The burglars evidently started out on
their spring picnic early yesterday morn
ing, judging from the way they enjoyed
themselves at a prominent citizens house
out on Waldran avenue, about o'clock.
There is not more congenial soul than
Mr.. Chas. DeGaris, OF the firm of George
Arnold & Co., unless it be George Arnold
himself. Mr.. DeGaris always has plenty,
and that was what his early morning and
clandestine visitors found. After entering
tho front door by skeleton key, they
proceeded TO the room OF MIR.
DeGaris, and after taking his
very fine suit Of clothes, his gold watch, a
neat and elegant diamond pin, and several
pieces OF silverware, all amounting TO
about $500 in cash, they betook themselves
back into the spacious dining-room, and
ravished the cloister Of the choice wines,
which are tho especial pride Of the then
sleeping landlord. After partaking of this
and other delicacies, which they found
convenient at hand, the rascals departed
loaded with their booty.
The festive burglars confident OF the sue
cess that had already crowned their bold
ness, thought TO carry II TO q further but
what proved serious extent. Near by
Mr.. DeGaris is the residence of Mr.. b. Il.
Barnes. The gentleman was aroused by q
noise at ono OF his windows, and on
looking TO see what il meant, saw man
just entering the window. As best that
he can tell both were white. The one 30
gently and artistically easing himself
through the open window, was
clearly OF the dudistical type, for
in his mouth was half smoked cigarette,
and his apparel was in the latest APP
proved style. The companion Of the dude
in distressing strainis stood on the outside
TO watch the performance, and TO receive
the 'handout." There was none, how
ever, for Mr.. Barnes being aroused pro-
cured his trusiy revolver, fired directly nj
the intruder, and us he aud his confcder-
ate fed fired another shot, which he Is
quite sure took effect, as the would-be
burglar screamed as II in agony The po-
lice were notified early in the morning,
but have not been able TO locate the
burglars

A LITTLE AFTERPIEcE.

Well Known Citizens Come to Light In
Walkers Vaudeville Theater.
There was an aitcrpiecc to the regular
performance at Walkers Vaudeville thea
,er Thursday night, in which scenes not
provided for on the program were wit
messed. II occurred shortly after ~
O'Clock midnight, when about half the
audience had departed for home or else
where. All the parties interested wero
silent. hence the facts as obtained from
outsiders can only be given. From these
reports II appears that among the conspic-
uOus auditors were Mcssrs. Archie Me-
Carver and Deputy Sheriff Mike Maiden.
They occupied box, and were feast
ing on enjoyment, besides contrbu-
ting literally 10 that OF the actresses by
wine set-ups. About the time mentioned,
Miss Ida Cummings approached McCmver
and remarked: 81 understand you are
running against my friend, Pop Cannon,
for sheriff 2" "No, | am not" replied
McCaryer; "Mr. Cannon Is not in the
race" Then the fun began, according 10
reports. you're a liar y" Missed Miss
Cummings, and struck out from the Shout
der. McCarver showed her away-some
say he struck her, but this is doubted
when she screamed, and n crowd OF thea
ter attaches rushed 30 her assistance. Me-
Carver was getting the worst Of It, when
Deputy Sheriff Madden drew his pistol
and saved his companion. McCaryer wore
bandage about his head yesterday. in
consequence of the difficulty. Dick Cum
mings, stage manager Of the thcaier, and
protector OF Miss Cummings. denies that
she struck the blow, and says there would
have been no disturbance had IL not been
for Madden. Further than this he Is
silent

A practical advocate of brine sailing for
butter recommends the proportion of one,
half pint of salt to a gallon of water in
making the weak brine that Is used to
wash the butter, little more or less salt
being immateriaL Churning is stopped
while the butter is in the form of grans
ules about as large as pinhead; the but.
termilk is drawn off, and at least enough
of this weak brine is put in to float the
butter, and the buttermilk is washed out,
the brine being drawn off and the process
repeated till the brine runs clear. The
strong brine to be next used is a saturated
solution--as much salt as the water will
dissolve. The washing brine is thor
oughly drained from the butter, and
enough strong brine is poured on to cover
it. In this strong brine the butter stands
till every single atom Is covered with
film Of brine. Great difference of opinion
prevails in regard to the advisability of
brine salting. As good authority as T.
D. Curtis fails to see either its utility or
economy as compared to applying the salt

l have been somewhat interested in
reading the remarks on foreign potatoes
for seed in the agricultural papers this
winter. have grown largo number of
foreign varieties importing the seed from
England, Ireland, Scotland. Germany and
France The result of my experiments is
this It takes from four to five years to
acclimatize a foreign variety, and then we
are not sure Of having valuable variety.
After several years trial of all the leading
English and Scotch varieties, have not
found one that will compare for produc-
tiveness with an average American kind.
My advice to potato growers is; Do not
plant imported seed if you wish to grow

that Is produced in the country. Corn
has a relatively small share in the beef
making in any country. The northwest,

Milk cows are receiving rather more

the depression felt in cheese making dis

What Am I to DoP

The symptoms of biliousness are un-
happily but too well known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A bilious man is seldom a
breakfast eater. To frequently, alas,
he has an excellent appetite for liquids
but none for solids of a morning. His
tongue will hardly bear inspection at
any time; if it is not white and furred,
it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and diarrhea or constipation may
be symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often hemmorrhoids or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or flat
ulence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. TO correct all this if not
effect a cure try Green's August Flower.
1t costs but trifle and thousands
attest its efficacy. (2)

the loss of hundreds of cattle before it
can be controlled. was coming up the
Texas trail once with party of other
cowboys. We had, 1000 cattle in the
bunch. One of the boys opened his
tobacco-pouch to get chew. The wind
blew shred or two of the fine cut out of
his fingers. The tobacco foated away
and lodged in steers eye. In moment
the aye began to smart, and the steer got
wild. Its antics started others, and in
ten seconds the whole herd was surging
and dashing about, out Of all control. It
was tvs days before we got the herd

boys were trampled to death, and scores
of cattle were lost. "-Exchange.
