a POULTRY HOUSE WITH LITTLE LUMBER.

a POULTRY HOUSE WITH LITTLE LUMBER.
P. II. Jacobs, Hammonton, n. j., said:
"Our poultrymen here face their houses
to the southeast For house 10x10
feet, green house sash 3xG feet is about
correct. G. E. /. Haywood, Hancock,
N. h, who has 400 hens and 152 hen
houses, uses no glass. He substitutes
one inch mesh wire netting. His houses
are feet square, face the south and
contain twelve hens each. G. S. Cooper,
New Jersey, thought where glass is
placed in the south side of the house
there is too much heat for summer, I'M
less it be coated with whitewash in hot
weather. He favored glass in the east
and west ends of the house. A. P. Allen,
Pennsylvania, did not advise much glass.
P. Williams, of Massachusetts,, preferred
windows on the south side, also one on
morning.
a. NJ Wood, Geneseo, n. Y, who fur
nished the sketch here presented, said in
explanation of the same: The shape of
the house gives plenty of floor room for
the poultry, and saves quite considera-
bic sum in the lumber bill. Front, II

made of boards; floor area, 16x32 feet

houses face the south. In summer the
sun shines on the edge of the roof. The
windows hung from the top can be raised
outward and are covered with mating
and front sun shades. In winter the sui

Cow Stalls with Manure Drops.

A cow stall with a manure drop en-

hence stalls the same length will not

Fiat Bottom Formulation.

At the Michigan state beekeepers' con-
vention quite number OF apiarists testi-
fed to the fact that comb built on fiat
bottom foundation has less of a fishbone
than on foundation made of the natural
shape. The reason seems to be that the
bees, in changing the fiat bottom to the
natural shape cell, thin the base more to
the thickness of natural comb than with
the other. / believe it was generally ad-
mitted that bees are often slower to COM
mence working on it, but this is not
always so, and need not prove to be very
much Of hindrance.

STORY OF TWO YOUNG GIRLS

BY A CITIZEN OF AUSTIN.
Crimes and Casualties Throughout the
State-Crushed by the Cars-Items
and Incidents From Diff
ferent Sections.

GALVESTON, Tex. Sept. 5.-The steam
ship Rio Grande which arrived at late
hour last night from New York, had
among her passengers fifteen girls for a
variety theater in Houston. Susie Buck
of Staten Island, and Fannie lockwood of
Patterson, N. j., were among the number.
These girls, by their quiet, lady-like de-
pertinent, attracted the attention of Mr..
Kendall, of the Deaf and Dumb asylum
at Austin, Tex, who was passenger on the
Rio Grande. Mr.. Kendall got into CONVEX
sation with the two girls end asked them if
they knew what kind of place they were
being taken to, and from their replies found
that they had been basely deceived. He
then informed them of its character and
the kind of work they would be required
TO do.
They were Mortified and pit,ously
pleaded with Mr.. Kendall to assist them
out of their unfortunate dilemma. This he
promised to do and at once held consulta-
ton with Captain Connors narrating to him
what the unfortunate girl had told him,
Captain Connors told Mr.. Kendall that he
would do all in his power to protect the
gilrs and that when the vessel arrived at
this port if they did not wish to go to their
destin alton they could remain on board
and he would take them back to New York.
This morning the woman having in
charge the theatrical party threatened to
make it decidedly unpleasant for Miss
Buck and Miss lockwood if they didn't
leave the steamer. She became so bolster
GUS that the chief of police was telephoned.
When the chief appeared the woman be-
came quiet. He called for the two girls,
sharply Intercepted them and learned that

| they didn't know its contents.
Miss Buckle said "Mr. Bell engaged us
himself, but deceived us as to the true
character of the place. Rather than 60 to
such place would end my life by jump

Miss lockwood was equally as emphatic
| in her statements.
The chief of police, convinced of the hon.
esty of the girls, told them he would see
that they were not troubled, and if they de

The Strike at TYLER.

TYLER, Tex, Sept. 5.-The Cotton Belt
strike is assuming threatening and danger
Gus proportions. The affair at first was a
local one at Corsicana over the fact that the
company failed to place a switch engine at
that point to do the night switching, thus
requiring the brakemen to do this work
and, too, from the fact that the men de-
manded larger crew to move the local
trains, which was not granted. The day
crew went off in this city late yesterday
afternoon, and the night force failed to re
port. This was the result of the meeting
of braKemen and switchmen held
late yesterday evening. The
strike extends entirely over the
Tevas division. Many cars of freight are
tied up in the yards here and much of it is
perishable goods The men are determined
to carry their point and the railroad
officials are equally determined not to yield.
1t is reported that one of the officials said
he would shut down the entire line before
a single concession would be made. The
loss will be great 10 the company if affairs
continue as they now are. Not train has
been moved since last night and the yards
are well blocked

THE COTTON BELT STRIKERS.
How Some Wise Heads Worked New
Scheme on Them.

CoRsIcANA, Tex, Sept. 5.-Wise heads
put themselves together and worked new
scheme on the striking brakemen of the
Cotton Belt road here today which secured
the unmolested removal of the freight
trains which have heen blocked in the
yards for three days past, the road being in
the hands of the receiver. The case was
laid before United States District Judge
Bryant at Sherman. and he promptly ls-
sued an order to United States Marshal
Knight to move all freight trains from
Corscana, Tex. When the order
was received it was secretly
communicated to the strikers, and
they we're afraid to interfere with the new
men employed and the result was the trains
we're all manned and sent forward. This
raised the blockade here and puzzled the
strikers, who left the yard and put their
heads together for new tack which has
not yet developed. Their only consolation
now is that smaller strike is on at Tyler
and Texarkana and may yet secure them
all they desire. Superintendent Edison and
Marshal Knight with his deputies are still
here and may remain several days.

Judge Porter,s Decision.

In looking over the able decision re- turned by Judge Porter in the Foster Smith case, we find the following which bears directly upon the validity of the Sunday Rest bill, and other bills which fell for want of Governor Zulick's signature.
 " Suppose the law had passed before the adjournment from Prescott to Phenix and been sent to the governor, and that his ten days for his approval or veto was within the intervening time, would not that legislature be considered as in ssssion? The su- preme court of California in Harpend- ing ys. Haight, says: "This result necessarily form the views we have expressed on the other proposition, in which we hold that the executive may return bill to the senate, though it be not, at the moment of the re- turn, in actual session.
 If it has adjourned for the day, or for three days, it still has an organized existence as a legislative body, with it's president, secretary and other officers, to whom, under such cir cumstances, substitutional delivery of'the bill and message might be made, and whose official duty it would be to place the bill and message before the senate at as early time as might be thereafter. Such a return as we have said, would be the only one permitted by the circumstances, and when the bill should afterward actually reach the senate, it could then proceed to consider it, as required by the con stitution in that respect" t."-Gazette.

Cattle not Eating CataIpa Trees.

A subscriber asks if stock will eat the young catalpa trees he intends planting out in spring.
 We have experience in that line, having fenced cattle, sheep and horses out from the catalpas But we find from the report of the Nebraska State Horticultural society that the matter came up from incidentally in the dis cussions, and the question was asked if timber claims had to be fenced "to prevent cattle from eating the trees" We quote:
 "Mr. Stevens-"We plant catalpa because that is timber tree cattle will not eat"
 MT. Dunlap-I have taken catalpa cuttings, stuck them in the sod i'll the pastures, and cattle would feed on the grass among them but would not touch the catalpa."
 In regard to some people thinking tue catalpa is poisonous, and on that account objecting to its being planted, Professor Bessey, of the Nebraska State Agricultural College said: "Tell the people who are believing the stories of imaginative persons that the catalpa is harmfully poisonous that there is no foundation for such belief. l do not advise people to eat it, and yet it is harmless; and I wish they would plant it much more largely than they do" o."-National Stockman
