LIVESTOCK NOTES.

Is in summer.
VAIN the bits before putting them
into the horses mouths.
HoEsns should be- turned out for exer-
else every pleasant day.
To GIT the best results handling and
training should begin when the colt Is
very young.
NETTING the horses heels and legs
clean IN the winter Is the best prcvcn-
tive for scratches.
STAINING in wet manure tends 70
make the feet Of the horse tender. Keen

CoLTs VIII make better growth and
development II they are given 4 light
feed Of ground oats every day.
CHANGE the feed often enough to keep
all stock with good appctites. They
will thrive better on less feed.
lF you have the right kind Of horses
the buyer will come after them: II the
wrong kind you will have 70 hunt =

SOME people who give the cattle the
best Of care neglect the hogs. The hog
will repay good care as well as other
kinds Of stock.
GUARD against constipation in swine.
The fat forming foods tend 10 produce
costivcness. The opposite kinds Of food
tend 10 prevent il.
BE careful Of the eyes Of animals.
They are just as delicate as the eyes Of
human beings. People often work
around stock very carclessly with forks.
The swine breeder who feeds oil meal
occasionally will not regret it. II is a
tonic and a regulator Of the bowels.
Care should be taken not to feed too
much.
Grooming is cheap way Of improv-
ing the condition Of the horse 1t can
be done at the simple cost Of a curry
comb and brush and the expenditure Of
a little elbow grease which will never
be missed
ALWAYS remember that hog is a
hog, and consequently. as the animal
has no judgment about eating. you
must exercise Judgment for it. Better

THE TREACHERoUs MISSOURI
The Shifting Channel Causes Peculiar
Law Suit in Atchison.


ATCHISoN, KAN, Oct. 11.-An interest
ing suit has been filed in the District Court
of Atchison county for the possession of a
quarter section of land. The plaintiff is
James Mcdaniel and the defendants are
William Reese and John NJ Downey, all of
Platte county, Missouri. Several years ago
the Missouri river below Atchison did not
run where it does now; it was a mile further
east. Mcdaniel then owned a fine farm on
the west bank of the river in Atchison
county, Kansas. Reese and Downey owned
land on the opposite side of the stream.
High waters finally caused the river to
change its course, and the Mcdaniel farm
was left on the east side.
When Mcdaniel went to take possession
of his land Reese and Downey objected on
the ground that it belonged to them by the
right of accretion, their farm having pre-
viously been on the river. Mcdaniel over
ruled their objections, however, and began
cultivating the land which the river had
washed over in shifting its course. Reese
and Downey then brought an eiectment suit
against Mcdaniel, and the Circuit Court of
Platte county decided in their favor. Now
Mcdaniel comes to Kansas and files an ac-
ton TO oust Reese and Downey, claiming
that although the course of the river has
changed the land is still in Kansas; that the
original survey of the river is the boundary
line. Judge Eaton will hear the case on the
oath inst, on a motion of the defendants to
dismiss the case for want of jurisdiction. If
Judge Eaton takes jurisdiction a conflict of
courts will arise, and the Supreme Court of
the United States may be called upon to de-
eide the matter

ARRESTED BY A WOMAN.
She Hauls a Cringing Robber Into Store
and Calls the Police.

She Hauls a Cringing Robber Into a Store
and Calls the Police.
CHICAGO, Oct. 11.-Persons in and in the
vicinity of the Auditorium Hotel drug store
were highly amused last night when large,
stout woman hustled into the store dragging
along with her a small man, whom she had
half carried, half hauled, all the way from
corner of Van Buren street and Michigan
avenue, the man struggling helplesslv and
she whooping Police" at frequent inter
walls. Once inside the apothecary shop the
large woman declared that she had arrested
a robber-had done it all by herself-had
thrown her arms around him and captured
him. Then a policeman happened along,
and the triumphant woman and the shame
faced man and the officer rode to the Armory,
where a warrant was sworn out, Justice
Lyon responding to a summons, and the
man went into a cell for the night and the
woman went home.
Explanations did not avail. The man
showed papers to prove that he was J. b.
Newman, a bookkeeper at the First National
Bank, of Springfield, Ill, and that he was
assistant treasurer of the Illinois State Fair
Association; also that he was the chorister
of the st. Paul Episcopal Church choir of
the capital city. He came to Chicago last
Sunday from Peoria, he said, and he had
robbed nobody. The woman who accused
him is Nine. /. Sobra, who makes millinery
and rents rooms at 2O21 Michigan avenue
Wednesday morning she rented room to a
strange young man, and on Thursday her
diamonds and iewelry, worth $500, were
missing. Last night, coming down town in
a Wabash avenue street car, she spied
man who, she thought, was her new lodger.
He left the car at Van Buren street, and she
followed him, spoke to him, embraced him,
called ''Police," and dragged her little cap
tive to the Auditorium drug store.

shape, and better off even than Germany
for the moment, but the same dullness
which reigns in Berlin is also observable in
Vienna. Indeed, Austria, in its commerce
and industry, is so closely connected with
Germany thBt the two countries share each
in the prosperity or adversely of the other.
As to Italy, the crowds of emigrants who
arrive in swift succession at our ports from
that country are sufficient evidence of our
immensely superior condition as field for
labor.
BURDENED WITH TAXES.
Taxes there are enormous, and yet they
are insufficient to meet the requirements for
national and municipal expenditures, while
wages, owing to the absence of extensive
manufacturing industries are meager.
Many failures have quite lately occurred at
Leghorn, one of the most important italian
seaports, and some large iron works in Lom-
hardy have had to be closed for want of
profitable business. Italy is, however, to
be envied in comparison with Spain, Tur-
key and Egypt, all of which are chronically
bankrupt, with no prospect of improve
ment.
Recrossing the ocean to South America.
we find. besides the Argentine Republic,
which is in hopeless financial collapse,
Brazil hardly much better, and Chile and
Peru suffering from war and revolution. On
our North American Continent, Mexico has
only recently emerged from national
bankruptcy, through a compromise with
creditors, and Canada is struggling with
national debt altogether disproportionate TO
her population, and from very unsatisfac-
tory state of industrial and commercial
affairs
Taking, therefore, the whole civilized
world together, there is no country which
has so little to complain of as the United
States, the grumbling Of disappointed stock
operators to the contrary notwithstanding.

Boats Cannot Enter or Leave Lake su-
perior on Account of Collision.
SAULT STE. MARIE, MICH, Oct. IL
The steamer barge Susan Z Peck passed
here downbound at 9:15 yesterday morning
loaded with $4,000 bushels of wheat from
Duluth to Buffalo. When passing through
st. George Flats, at the elbow near the Can
buoy, she collided with the schooner George
w. Adams, upbound, in tow of the steam
barge Aurora. The Adams struck her on
the starboard bow and dashed her stern in.
She sunk Immediately after the collision,
her decks going under water. All her crew
were saved. The schooner Adams sustained
considerable injury, but it was all above
the waterline, and she can proceed, with
temporary repairs.
The Peck lies directly across the canal,
her stern resting on one bank and her bow
on the other The greatest depth of water
on either side of her is five feet on the star
board side. This is a most serious delay to
navigation, as no craft can pass up or down
to Lake Superior until there is channel
dredged around her 1t will require 600 to
700 feet OF a channel 60 or 20 feet wide 1t
will be Is days before navigation can re-
sumo it's regular run. The Peck was valued
at S165, 900, and owned by Captain John
Green, of Buffalo.
