Mrs. Babcock: The keeper OF
poultry must be a specialist. He
must work for purpose, and for the
highest possible standard of quality.
\ few varieties are better than
many. Next, the quarters must
re comtortable-entirly comfor.
table; there cannot be success with
out comfort. Care follows. The
fowls must be warm, and warm all
he time. BY warm house we do
not mean an oven-simply a building
that will protect the birds from the
extremes of cold. The hens are
warmly clad, but to induce them to
lay eggs in winter they must be
warm. Plenty of sunlight will aid
in these respects, with structure
made to keep out the cold.

MURDERED WOMAN.

M0 NbtAREh hRhANs
CAMDEN, N. j., Mar. 2s,-In a
clump OF trees near Eighteenth and
Federal streets, the dead body of
Netty Ryan, a woman about 40 years
OF age, was discovered early yester'
day morning by Peter Myer, who
WAS on his way 10 work, and the
appearance Of the woman led to the
belief that she had been knocked
down, outraged, and LETT dead. Cor
oner jefferson drove Immediately to
tho scene. The body of the dead
woman could only be reached by
the coroner forcing himself through
crowd Of q hundred men and
women gathered around the body,
The woman lay on her back and her
left cheek was bruised, evidently
recently made, while her forehead
was much discolored. Her clothes
were dlsarranged, and n red shawl
aud hood were thrown four feet
away. In the pockets some trinkets
and emily 90 cents were found,
Pending a post.mortem examination
BY the connty physician, the body
was removed to the raorgue. Con-
stables are busily engaged in inves
tIgating the case, and will probably
have several persons under arrest
today.

NIHILISTIC PLOT.
LONDON, March 2S.-The impor-
tant capture of a gang of counter
feiters at Dobra, in Posen, will prob
ably lead to the unearthing of an
extensive nihilistic plot. 1t was
found that the counterfeiters werenot
vulgar criminals, several of them
showing signs of good training and
refinment. The gang were betrayed
by woman, a German, who APP
pears to have been the mistress of
the chief counterfeiter, Russian.
and was by him discarded, he sup
posing she knew nothing about his
criminality, Of which, however, she
was fully aware. The couterfeilers
were taken by surprise and made a
desperate fight to escape. At first
they almost succeeding In overpow-
ering the police, but the arrival of II
small but timely reinforcement
turned the scale, and the gang were
compelled to surrender. The coun-
terfeit money was intended for
circulation in Russia, and the police
think that the counterfeiters'den was
really'a bank from which the nihi-
lists derived the wherewlthal to
operate against the Russian govern
ment. The capture has excited
lively interest In st. Petersburg as
we'll as Berlin.

Our Great Ship.

Yesterday was red-letter day in
our naval annals, for it saw the
launching of the greatest-ship of her
type afioat, and the noblest and the
most widely useful in the American
navy. The New York World thus
briefly describes her:
The New York combines offensive
and defensive powers in very un
usual degree with extraordinary
coal endurance and high speed. She
is a twenty-knot ship, and without
being unwieldy in size she has so
great coal capacity that she can
steam 1900 miles without recoal-
ing.
Her armor is that of cruiser,
not that of battle ship, but she is
fit to fight anything less formidable
than battle-ship and even to en-
gage hopefully in a brief contest
with vessel of that class in an
emergency. She can easily run
away from any ship of more form
liable type than her own now afioat
under any flag, and her speed will
enable her to overtake 50 per cent.
of all the vessels-naval or mer-
chant-in existence.
Her battery is superior to that of
any other vessel of the cruiser type
in the world. She is both com
merce destroyer and eommere pro-
protector of unusual effectiveness.
She can fight or run as occasion
may require, and she can keep the
sea as few formidable ships can.
Her launching marks an epoch in
our naval history and is one more
monument to the wise and able adj
ministration of Secretary Whitney,
