PARKERsBURG, w. VA, July l.
Harvey Mullen and Riley Cooper, the
notorious moonshiners, captured few
days since, by Capt. Saunders and n
posse in Bncha nan county, Va, con-
tessed In open court to their crimes and
were sentenced this afternoon. Cooper,
who seemingly had been dupe, was
given SIX months In the Summers
county Jail and fined Sl00.
Mullen, who probably IS one of the
most desperate and murderous moon
shi ners in the two States, notwiEh-
standing his age, which cannot be over
twenty, was sentenced TO two years IN
the penltentiary and fined
$500 on only one of the four connts in
the indictment against him. Judgment
was reserved on the other three counts

Informed him that he (Mullen) was
wanted in Mcdowell county, w. Va,
and Buchanan county, Va, for tho mur-

Both Mullen and Cooper have been be-
fore the grand jury. where Mullen's tes-
timony. it is said, was evasive
and not Of much account,
while Cooper made 4 clean breast
and gave away twelve noted moonshin-
ers, together with their places OF bust
ness and other information OF value To
the Government. On this account the
court was lenient toward Cooper.
1t is said the evidence of Cooper has
put the Government in possession Of
many facts OF which they had been here
tofore ignorant. A great crowd was
present when the prisoners wero sem

BAR HARBoI, Me-, July Marquis
Imperiali, the Italian Charge d'Atfaires
at Washington, arrived here this morn
ing. He has engaged rooms at Hotel
Porcupne for not less than eight weeks,
and will spend the summer here.
Mr.. Blaine has been driving twice to-
day. He rode about town this morning,
and this afternoon he took long drive
on the Cornichie road, and rode twelve
or fifteen miles altogether. AT
one time during the ride Mr. Blaine
alighted from the carriage and
walked a short distance. Mr.. Blaines
physician says the Secretarys health
has constantly improved since coming
to Bar Harbor. There is no foundation
for the alarming reports circulated. His
mental strength is unimpaired. He
says his Improvement is, OF course,
slow.
At the Stanwood, Mr.. Blaine's cot
tage, it was said that the Marquis I'M
periali had not yet called on Secretary
Blaine. Nothing OF public interest
brings the Marquis here. He comes
simply on d vacation.

IOWA REF UBLICANs.
Tame Conventional Slate Ticket
Rushed Through-Platform.


CEDAR RAPIDS, IA, July 1.-One of
the most enthusiastic Republican con-
ventionS ever assembled in the State of
Iowa convened in this city at II O'clock
to-day. 1t Is felt by both political par
ties that this campaign is to be de-
cisive one, and its effect on National
politics is fully appreciated by every
politician of the Hawkeye State. The
Republican party is thoroughly united
for the first time in many years and to-
days convention was distinguished by
its harmony aud good feeling.
The nomination of Hiram c.
Wheeler for Governor was assured
in advance, and the platform was sub
Stantialy 4 repetition of the partys
principles of two years ago.
Hon. j. Y. Stone. temporary chair
man, delivered long speech, dwelling
on the importance of the present con-
test, and more especially referring to
the Prohibition issue, which promises
to be an important factor In the fight.
He Scoffed at the Peoples party, praised
Harrison and complimented Blaine
and, rs a matter of course, denounced
Democracy generally.
At the conclusion Of the temporary
chairman's speech the new State Central
| Committee and the various committees
of the convention we're appointed.
The platform, as finally adopted, en-
dorseS the Mckinley tariff law in the
warmeSt terms, particularly cOmmends
the reciprocity provision and its inter-
probation and observation by President
| Harrison and Sacra.prv of Stotp RlainpS
| liberal pensions to disabled soldiers and
! their widows are urged.
The financial question is briefly dis
posed of by the endorsement of the pre-
sent silver law, of which Conger, Of
Iowa, has the credit Of being the author.
The Harrison administration is en-
| dorSed and the large appropriations of
the last Congress are defended as hav-
| ing been for the fulfllment OF the obli-
cations, welfare and development of the
country.
The Prohibition plank of the platform
of last year is reaffimed and the Demo-
| cratic party and the Democratic local
! officials are arraigned for conSplring
with the law-brealIing element, or the
violation and non-observance of the
prohibitory law.
George Van Houten, Of Lenox, was
nominated on the second ballot for
Lieutenant Governor. Van Houten is
a Farmers Alliance man.
For Supreme Judge, S. NJ. Weaver.

CLEVELAND 1RoNwoRKERs STRIKE
the Amalgamated scste yssxA's Trouoie
In Two mills.

CLEVELAND, July six hundred and
fifty employees of the Union and Lake
Erie Rolling Mill Companies went out
on q strike this morning.
The trouble was all caused by the
adoption of the new scale by the Anal
gamated Association of Iron and Steel
Workers, which provides that the men
work but nine hours per day. Former
ly they were paid by the ton, and it is
claimed by the employees that good
workman could finish his days work in
nine hours.
Last night committees OF workmen
consulted with their employers, and
Britton 81 Co. finally signed the scale.
However, Mr.. Fuller, of the Union Com
pany, and Mr.. Lewis, of the Lake Erie
Company, refused TO accept the scale,
and the lockout followed. The strike
does not affect the steelworkers and the
mon went to work this morning as
usual at the Cleveland Rolling Mill
Company's mills al Newburg.
When asked concerning the strike, an
official of the Union Company said that
the mill was shut down for its regular
yearly repairs. Ee admitted, however,
that the men bad quit work.

AN OBJECT LESSON
In Strires-The Unexpected Result OF
rittsburg Carpenters Strike.

PITTsBURG, July 1.-The carpenters,
who will go to work after the Fourth at
their employers terms, have done two
things they did not count on during
their nine weeks strike They have
forced a score of the smaller contractors
to the wall, who have fallen into the
power of the Master Builders, who ad-
vanced them money, thus making the
Builders Association more of mOnop-
oily than ever. The other unexpected
effort of the failure of the widely adver-
tised eight hour move is the
black eye received by the
Federation of Labor. That order
will lose several thousand members
from this district owing to its non-futill-
ment of promise To provide money for
the strikers. This is also true of the
great coke strike, and both fell through
from the same cause-poverty.
Wrangling exists in the building
trades, and complete reorganization
will likely occur.
Pttsburg is pleased at the proposed
resumption of building, as the building
paralysis has forced millions Of capital
to lie idle, with consequent backset to
all trade.

THE CRUEL -CHECK-REIN.

1t is reported that Queen Victoria
has abolished the check-rein in all
forms in her stables a good and
noteworthy reform on her part in a
country where the thorough train
ing of horses is far more efficiently
carried out than in this. Here, under
present methods of horse-breaking,
some form of check-rein for horses
may usually, perhaps naturally, be
required, but the overhead check'is
a form of cruelty to our best animal
friend that should be tolerated in
but very exceptional cases. There
should be no reason for it; a horse is
not properly broken until he a be
driven without it; a person that is
too lazy or incapable of driving with
out it should never handle the reins,
and l have often wondered at which
end of these telegraph lines between
driver and motive power the most
intelligence and kindly feeling lies.
In recent conversation with a local
humane society's officer whom 1 met
on the road, and whose horse was
at the time standing with its nose
almost parallel to his back, in reply
to my query why she set such a bad
example, she said: Il don't know:
1 don't think it hurts them" 1
would like to read of, and, still more,
take part in, some energetic action
against the practice. 1t is now being
adopted on teams drawing heavy
loads over our h~orse-killing roads
(the roads so carefully kept i'm
passable bv our late le9islature)
saving the lazy and often in
competent drivers the trouble of
attending to their business. If ever
a horse needs a free head it is when
he is straining at a heavily-loaded
wagon, but with natural freedom of
action restricted the poor beast has
no chance. Writing from personal
observation, l would add that l
have repeatedly seen wealthy mem
bers of humane and kindred societies
attend their appointed meetings
with bedizened carriage. coachman
and horses, the last mentioned of
whom have to stand i'll misery, Of
ten hours at a time, while their own
ers are dispensing charity. These

SKIM-MILK WITT LINSEED FOR
CALVES.

The best substance to replace the
cream distracted from the milk in
butter-making is linseed mucilage or
jelly, says a British dairyman, made
by boiling linseed and %straining the
product before adding it to the skim
med milk. The cream removed from
the milk is fat, of which the milk of
the COW contains on an average 46
per cent, and chemists tell us that
you have only to replace the abstract
ed fat by something cheaper than
cream to render it just as good feed
ing. The unfortunate part of it is
that you cannot persuade the calf
that skinned milk with added fat
is as good as new milk, and such is
the animals obstinacy on this point
that he refuses to believe it even if
you read the latest analysis while he
takes his bucket of skim and linseed.
That useful animals a be reared
on skinned milk the fat of which
has been replaced by the addition OF
linseed jelly is an undoubted fact;
bnt that this or any other substitute
has an equal feeding value, DR. will
fat a calf as well as pure milk, is all
moonshine. Linseed contains "a per-
cent of fat, and being cheap and
easily obtained, is undoubtedly the
pest substitute for the crea remov-

The free application of lime and
ashes to the entire ground and the
use of salt around the trees will
assist greatly in heading off insects
and worms that greatly injure the
orchard. Feed the orchard-keep
the soil mellow, and it will reward
the effort with an abundant supply
of perfect and healthful fruit.
Cultivation to produce the best
fruit is as essential to fruit-growing
as to grain-growing. Who would
think of growing a crop of corr
without cultivation? Yet it is al
most universally the case that the
orchard takes care Of itself. Fowls
and pigs running in an orchard at
proper times are beneficial to the
orchard.
