TO KEEP PIGS STRONG AND uEA1ruY

Pigs can be kept neither healthy nor
growing without plenty of good succu-
lent food. The natural food for pigs in
the wild state is grass, tho masts OF the
forest roots and bulbs of plants. It's
necessity is we'll recognized by nature in
providing the hog with rooter. Even
after generations of domestication, with
an ample supply Of sustenance, this pro.
ciivity to root remains prominent
characteristic. Farmers who during the
winter months at least twice week give
one feed OF potatoes, beets, artichokes
OF turnips. find that the pigs not only
relish, but derive great benefit from
them. Brood sows are especially helped
by liberal supply of food dict; indeed,
1t is almost compulsory in order to in
sure strong, healthy pigs and natural
farrow.-Ncw York World.

OF PUBLIC INTEREST.
A Matter That the City Is Interested In.

At tho last meeting OF the City
Council, Dir. j. J.. Hargrove, special
Attorney for the city, presented the
following, which should be carefully
noted by every citizen of Shreveport,
and asked that it be adopted, which
Was done 10 full:
"The City of Shreveport, La, in
regular session OF its mayor and
trustees convened. Declare and
make the following declarstory state
ment-viz: That us the United Stat. &
at large, Vol 7, page 472, shows that
i'll the treaty Of the United States with
the Caddo Indians in 1886, the In-
dians reserved from the crssion tn the
United States six hundred and forty
acres OF land. That the township
map on file in the Recorders office of
Caddo parish, La, page 20, shows that
the urea left of land and water out Of
which to get said $40 acres of land in
cluded in its meander, the body of
water then, but now land, called
Silver Lake. 1876 50-100 acres; further,
that in 1889 the Legislature OF the
State Of Louisiana, on March 70, pass
ed tho act of incorporation OF the
Larkins Edwards reservation, saying
the act was to include $40 acres, more
or less; the greater part is as well in
cluded asthe less and the act declares
it is to cover the Larkin Edwards
reservation.
The records Of our city show that
the city of Shreveport paid large
sums OF money for ditching and
draining said Silver Lake IN 1885, and
to Joseph Howell for opening and
filling up Marshall street through an
arm Of said Lake; that Marshall
street, Market street, and Spring
street have for more than thirty years
been opened andrecognized as public
streets, fully dedicated to public use,
though Spring street has never been
fully opened 1t is not for the want OF
right 10 do 50. That the city OF
Shreveport has long since paid the
purchase price of said land as afore-
said, to the State OF Louisiana, to OBJ
tsin.a paper REIMBURSEMENT from the
sovereign State, with view to deter
svaricious claimants. That the pat
ent was issued by the register OF the
State land Office in April, 1892. That
the city hereby accepts said patent,
and the sovereign REIMBURSEMENT
thereby made. We declare said tract
Of land rs aforesaid, to be the prop
erty Of the city of Shreveport, for the
reason given above.
We hereby refuse to accept or re-
cognize the title OF any person or
persons, aud to receive any dedication
VI streets or otherwise from any
person or persons.
A lively lawsuit will in al probabil-
ity now follow, as Messrs. Land and
Leonard, believing they have title by a
decision of the Supreme Court, will
attempt to continue their survey al
ready begun, and if the police follow
instructions and arrest them for tres
pass, of course the powerful machin-
cry Of law will be brought into mo-
ton.
However, this property is valuable,
and il the city has Il just claim to 1t,
it should take the necessary steps to
have this claim recognized by the
courts. We will doubtless hear more
of this.

KERN is CONVICTED
The Jury Finds Him Guilty Of
Robbery.
A SUIT AGAINST THE BLUE JAY
Judge Gee Sentences Colored Crook-The
Hearing in the Haynes Case Continued
Probate Proceedings.

Albert Kern will not remove from this
community for some time. Householders
need not be alarmed on this account how
ever, as Alberts residence will be in the
penitentlary.
Kerm's record since he made his advent
shows him to be one of the coolest crooks
who ever turned a trick in Zion. He first
got into trouble in connection with bur-
glary at Dr. Niles residence some time
ago. When Officers Raleigh and Carson
attempted TO arrest him and companion
for committing that crime Kern made
daring bluff, but was nabbed and did time
for resisting al officer. He made
his escape from the marshafs
office, and while he was at large
a most daring robbery occurred.
1t was on a dark night in September, 1890,
wnen man with a hands erchief over his
face appeared at the residence of William
Wood, near the Warm springs. MIR.
Woods son was sitting in dlmiy lighted
room with sack containing Sl60 IN gold IN
front of him when, looking up, he saw an
intruder. The latter calmly walked over
to the table, snatched up the money, and
before the astonished victim could gather
his wits the thief backed to the door and,
| threatening Mr.. Woods with instant death
If he made a move, disappeared in the
darkness. The daring way in which the
robbery was committed Convinced the Off
GERS that Kern was the man VINO
| did it, and through the efforts
of Sheriff Burt and Deputy Marshal
Csnnon, he was arrested at the depot just
as he was leauing for Denver. In his
pocket was found watch which was iden-
| titled as having been stolen from Mr..
Wood residence, and the money in his
possession, together with the cost Of the
ticket and other expenditures he had made,
tailed closely withsthe amount stolen.
Kern was tried for the offenseIOf ROBBERY
some time ago, but the jury disagreed and
HE second trial was held in the Third dis
trict court yesterday. F. b. Stephens pros
ecuting, and S. p. Armstrong defending.

Inc case OF william wilson, OF lOoele
county, charged with unlawfully divertiug

The case of F. F. Raymond, charged
with assault and battery, was also dis

defendant was convicted in the police
court some time ago, and appealed.
