Lime for Fowlc,

The particular form in which the i:rao
shall be furnished to the fowls differs &C
cording tc the particular circumstances
in which the owners of the fowls are cit
uated. In all our large towns not tar
from the Atlantic sea coast, explains
Fanciers' Journal, great quantities OF
oysters are opened every day, and the
shells may generally be had for the
trouble of removing them. In other sit
uations beef bones are most available.
There are some advantages and some
disadvantages in the use of bone; if it is
fresh and sweet it contains considerable
nutritive material generally in addition
to the lime, but if it is at all rancid or
stale the bone is objectionable; it is like
putrid meat or anything Of the sort, and
may cause disease.
Shells, on the contrary, are almost des-
titute of animal matter liable to become
rancid, and this is an advantage in their
favor. Crushed oyster shells are an ar
ticle of trade now, the same as potatoes
or grain. They are sold in barrels OF
sacks. If the poultry keeper does NOS
want to be at the expense Of purchasing
shells already prepared he may take
them to his fowl yard from the nearest
restaurant or hotel where they may be
obtained and pound them by hand. Or,
if it be desired to avoid this labor, which
is rather irksome, they may be thrown
into any road or gangway where there
is considerable passing of teams, and the
wheels and the feet of the horses will
soon break the shells up fine enough for
the use of poultry. From time to time
the loose shells may be raked or hoed
into the ruts, so that all may become
pulverized. The crushed shells may be
slowed away for use, and the road may
be replenished with fresh lot of whole
shells as often as necessary.

Q. What do nations trade with one an.
other? Their 81 rplrs products, mainly the
necessitie, and >mforts Of life.
Q. Why do they trade one will, another?
\. Because each one is possessed of some
special advantage that enables ii TO produ. e

@. Then one nation cannot make all the

alton trades without making some profit
although in every exchange the profit is not
equally divided. One nation may make
more profit tn IN another.
@. Is it wise for the nation nal ing the
great er profit? A. Yes. Without the trade
there would he no profit for either, AZ no
man is benefited by throwing away $1 to
compel another man to lose S3. Lack Of
tr uie is loss for both. and n profit for both,
though unequally divided, is better than a
loss for both.
@. Would o wise nation seek to trade
with another whether It made the greater
or lesser profit A. Certainly. 1t would

sumption, the same. He receives for his

OF CONNECTICUT, DIED MARCH 2, 1890.
Ex-Governor James E. English Of
Connecticut died at his New Haven home
on Sunday last of a severe cold, which
developed into pneumonia. He was one
of the wealthiest men in the state, most
of his property being invested in city real
estate. Ex-Governor English was born
in New Haven May 10, 1912, and after
receiving q common school education
was a~pprentleed to Atwater Treat, q car
penter and builder. His assiduity n
skill enabled him, on attaining his ma
jority, to begin business on his own &C
count. Later on, he and his brother
Benjamin formed o partnership in the
lumber trade, which proved the founda-
ton OF the future governor 3 fortune.
Entering politics, he IVES elected to
the New Haven common council in 1913,
to the state assembly in 1856, and to the
state senat In 1856, serving two years.
In 1860 he ran unnecessarily for lieu
tenGnt-goYernor on a ticket with Col.
Seymour. He was elected to congress in
1861, and was a war Democrat and a
great admirer of President Lincoln. He
surprised his fellow Democrats by voting
with the Republicans for the abolition OF
slavery in the District Of Columbia. In
1867 he made a brilliant and successful
canvass for the ~governorship of Connec-
ticut against Joseph r. HawleY. For
the next four years he had a nip and
tuck time contesting the governorship
with NJ. Jewell. In 1871 the contest
was so close as to require its settlement
by the legislature, but Gov. English de-
clined to take the Office. Appointed
senator to succeed Orris 5. Ferry in De-
cember, 1875. he held the Office until
May, 1876, since which time Gov. Eng
lish has remained in private life and de-
voted himself to the management of his
extensive business interests.

CALIFORNIA; POOR.
San Francisco Citizens DenOunee the sensa-
tiOnal Reports Sent Out, Fut Admit
There is Distress Among the Poor.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, March 8.-Pur-
suant to a call issued by Mayor Pond a
meeting of the citizens was held IL the
rooms of the chamber Of yes
terday to devise means for aiding unem-
>ployed w~orkingmen. Several prominent
citizens denounced the sending of the
sensational dispatch to Washington q day
or two g by persons styling themselves
q committee, representing that there was
starvation in San Francisco, and asking
that government rations be issued. The
speakers, while admitting there
vas much distress among the poorer
class, expressed the opinion that the
municipality was fully able to afford
necessary relief, and a resolution was
unanimously adopted to the effect that
the Associated Press be requested to con-
vey to the people of the Eastern States a
refutation of the scaDdalous statements
made by the so-called committee. A
resolution was also adopted to the effect
that subscription should be started and
devoted to employing laborers in Golden
Gate park. An executive committee of
ten was appointed TO supervise the giving
out of work, and S2730 was raised to pay
labOrers at the rate of 81. 80 per day.

Procession of Escort Very Imposing.
CINCINNATI, ONO, March 8.-The City
is in mourning to-day over the return OF
one of her brightest citizens, Hon. George
H. Pendleton, who five years ago went
to represent :he government at Berlin.
At that time he wa given a compliment
tary dinner famous for its good will and
kindly compliment, the happy guests not
dreaming that when next they looked
upon his face 1t would be in death.
The funeral service this morning in
Christ 5 church was conducted by Rev.
DR. Gibson and Rev. DR.. De Forrest, the
latter rector Of Calvary church, Cliff
ton, where Mr.. Pendleton worshipped.
1t was attended by the family and
friends ONLY. Meantime one of the most
imposing corteges ever seen in Cincin-
natl formed TO escort the remains to
music hall. 1t was headed by a detach-
ment of police, then the First regiment
Ohio National guard, then Governor
Campbell of Ohio and staff, then the
heRrse surrounded by pall-bearers, and
they surrounded in a hollow square by
members of the old Woodward club.
After the hearse were carriages contain
ing the family and friends, n follow
ing them came Mayor Mosley, Governor
Buckner of Kentucky, ex-President
Hayes and Ex-Governor Foraker, ex-
Governor J. d. Cox, Ex-Governor E. F.

ex-Minister Taft and ex-Lieutenant-GoY-
ernOr Lyon. After these were other car

which deceased had some connection.
Notable among the procession were all

marked by respectful and sOrrOwful in

knew deceased in life.

The Committee Counts the Cash and Finds It

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March s.-The JEFF
ferson City correspondent of the Post
Dispatch telegraphs to-day that the
committee appointed to investigate the
affairs of the state treasurer have finish
ed counting the cash, and nave found Il
$40, 900 short. They express the opin-

papers will increase this to something
over $40, 600. Governor Francis has not
yet determined whether he win accept
the treasurer resignation. If he does,
of course the quo warranto proceedings

be taken, but if he does not then the ap-
plication will be made to the supreme
court Monday next and all facts in the

sponsibility for the shortage.

PRAIRIE SCHOONERS."
The Entire Country Dotted with Them Border
ing the Cherokes Strip-Great Activity
for a era I'd Rush.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March Slate ad-
vices from Oklahoma Territory are to the
effect that not only scores, but hundreds
of ''prairie schooners - filed with
''boomers' hunting for choice claims,
are moving over the Cherokee Strip in all
directions, and the single men and par
ties with guns on their shoulders who
claim to be hunting, but who are really
selecting land are daily.
More than half a dozen boomers organ
izations have been formed in Kansas and
Oklahoma, and the boom is on in dead
earnest, and il Is believed the govern
ment will find it very difficult TO suppress
or even control. The boomers are also
collecting in the Iowa reservation east C.
Oklahoma and south of the Strip
in great numbers. Trains arriving at
Guthrie are loaded with boomers,
with blankets, tents and camp
equIpage, and there is great activity or
all sides. It is believed hat the Indian
police, who are under orders from Chief
Mayes to clear the Strip, will be totally
unequal to the work. A well-deiued
aud authenticated report IS in cirCula-
ton IN Guthrie that all the Cherokee
boomer colonies nave made an agree
ment for concerted movement 10 invad
the Strip April -, the anniversary of
the Oklahoma opening. There IS appre-
hension hat the military will be ordered
to eject them but the general opinion IS
the government will allow them to re-
main and their hopes are running high.
