A Sudden Death.

Avery sad accident occurred Sunday
afternoon = Dixie, about ten miles
northeast Of Walla Walla, by which W.
G. Kershaw, an old and respected resi-
dent of that place lost his life. He was
in an clubhouse at the time and tho
cause of his death was bullet from
80 caliber army needle gun in the hands
of John Rodgers, sixteen-vear- old
neighbor boy. The Rodgers boy was
standing just outside the back door of
his sisters, Miss Jane E. Rodgers, resi-
dence and was showing the gun, a
borrowed one, to his younger brother.
He was under the IMPRESSION that the
cartridge had been removed. He had
cooked the gun and in explaining how
to use it he brought it to a level and
pulled the trigger when the gun was
discharged with the above result. The
distance from where the boy stood to
the clubhouse in which Mr.. Kershaw was
is about two hundred and thirty-fve
yards and the bullet went through the
wall of the house and entered the right
side of Mr.. Kershaw, about on a line
with the nipple, and passed clear
through his body coming out just above
the left hip bone. The first joint OF
the fore finger was also shot off death
was undoubtedly instantaneous. Young
Rogers had no idea of the result of his
accidental shot and as soon as he re-
covered from his surprise though no
more about it.
About an hour afterward, Mr.. Ker-
shaw not making his appearance, his
wife sent their little son out to look for
him, and he found..him in the clubhouse
lying with his face down and when the
father made no response to repeated
calls the little fellow became alarmed and
rushed for his mother. Mrs. Kershaw
Immediately went and was Mortified to
find that her beloved husband was cold
in death. She screamed for help and
was answered by a man named Alex
Barnes. Together they managed to get
the body into the house when it was
found thai he had been shot. 1t was
then remembered by some one that Mr..
Kershaw had entered the out house
shortly before the Rod gers boy had dis
charged the old needle gun, and con
stable was sent after the boy, who on
being informed what he had done, be-
came very much excited and wanted to
| take his own life

DIR. Watkins received a small package
BY express Tuesday, but it was worth a
good deal OF money, 1t came directly
from Mr.. Koch's laboratory in Berlin
and contained two glass bulbs with
one drop OF pure lymph in each, also
the same number of bulbs with a
small quantity of sterilized water.
Senator Mcconnell procured it through
q. B. Billings of New York, Surgeon Of
the United States Army Accompany
ing the package are instructions for
applying the lymph and request that
the results Of the experiments be sent to
DR.. Koch. DR.. Watkins has two con
sumptiye patients who have consented
to submit to the lymph treatment, and
as soon as the weather is favorable be
will perform the operations This is the
third experiment Of the kind to be made
il the Pacific Northwest One is at
Sokane Falls, the other at Portland, and
of course the trial at Moscow Will be
watched with interest 1t will be
several days, and possibly weeks, before
definite results are known

Seattle Telegraph, 18th inst
Tonight the tenth decennial enumera-
ton of Great Britain will be taken. and
tomorrow morning the result will be
tabulated, and in the evening the record
will be delivered to the government au-
thorities. The work will be done in
twentv-four hours At the same hour
all over the domain the recorders will be
taking down the names. 1t is as though
the nation were to stand STILL each in
dividual remaining in his place until
counted. There are forty thousand dis
tricts, so that an army Of enumerators
viii be at work. The totals will be OBJ
tanned by the use of an American tabu-
lating machine The cost of the census
is estimated at only 100000, one-tenth
of the cost in this country,
This quick and skillful method of CEN
sus-taking is in striking contrast to our
cumbrous, slow and unsatisfactory way.
Americans are apt to consider them
selves the greatest hustlers in the world
but they are poky in some things: and
in nothing more so than in the accurate
counting of population.

No More Boom Towns,

tENerE sunday
In speaking of boom towns, Editor
Smalley, of the Northwest magazine
recently said that the day had about
passed for such enterprises in Washing
ton, and that the coming season would
witness about the last of them. He was
very confident Of the future Of the state.
He said that there were thousands of
persons in Kansas, Nebraska and the
Dakotas who had it IN their heads TO re-
move to this state, and they would do
so. He also said there was much in,
curry among eastern capitalists as to
safe investments in this country, and
that great influx of capital could be
expected this summer. He thought 1t
would be two years before the Great
Northern reached the Sound.

Feeding stock.

The farmer who is up and at the barn
before daylight in the winter to give
his stock hurried morning feed before
he goes away to the days work at mill
or market. will no doubt find them re-
quiring another feed at noon, and again
another after his days labor is done.
On the contrary, the farmer who does
not go to the barn until after daylight,
and who feeds leisurely, adding little
more as they eat what is put before
them, until their appetites are satisfied,
will not need to feed again until in the
afternoon, when the same course of feed
ing will furnish enough to last until
morning Probably this method will
keep the cattle in quite as good condi-
ton, upon less food, than would be
used by the other method, but the time
spent each day in this way may be made
more valuable than the excess of fod-
der, unless one has large stock of cat
tie to feed, Yet those who thus linger
over the feeding process usually have
the stock in good condition and in good
health, as there is constant watchful-
ness that detects any indication of the
ease or unthriftiness in time to prevent
any serious illness. Cultiva.

Try a Change of Feed.

We would urge upon the farmers who
feed only corn to their brood sows dur
ing the winter, with what little grass
they can get on closely-grazed pastures,
to try some other feed that will not
tend SO much to lay on fat, but develop
the organs required for the work they
must perform. Try feed of slop
made of bran and oil meal. There
are men who think bran is but lit
tie better than saw-dust; it is need
less to say that such men have never
fed any great quantities of it. The
more a man uses it for growing or
breeding animals, the higher opinion
he will have of it. 1t has always been
our aim in caring for brood sows to use
feed that would prevent constipation.
AS a result we have neither had any
use for pig forceps at narrowing time,
nor will any man that has well-devel.
oped sows that are in fine condition,
entirely free from constipation. Rural
