IN HONOR OF TIE LADIES
The 40, 600 twenty-five Cent Coins to Be
Distributed.

CHICAGO, March 10.-The board oil
LADY managers of the Worlds Fair is
LAYING plans for the distribution OF the
40, 600 twenty-five cent souvenir coins,
the issue Of which was authorized by
Congress some time ago In honor Of the
women Of this country and in recogni-
tion of the work done by the ladies OF
the board. The trouble before the
board lies not in the fact that the coils
will not be distributed, but that some
people are anxious TO purchase the ma
io.itv portion Of them and do the dis
tributing on their own account. Mrs.
Potter Palmer feels confident that the
coins will be ready for distribution By
MAY Ist. In some respects the Isabella
souvenir coin may be regarded as even
greater novelty than the Columbus
half dollar since it is the first coin
minted by the authority of the United
States in recognition of the place OF
women in the government, State or In
great social aud Industrial movements.

affirmative answer from Mr.. Cleveland.
Itis likely Of course that exceptions
will be made In rare instances.
The Cabinet meeting to-day curtailed

Mentioned Prominently In Connection
with Senator Faulknsr's Name.
Special Telegram 10 ths Rsgiste-.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 10.-A
story to which no credence was given
has been floating about here the last
couple Of days connecting Senator
Faulkner's name with one OF the judge
ships of the new District Of Columbia
Appellate Court, which was recently
created by Congress. As Senator Faulk-
ner was out Of the city, nothing could be
had from him in relation to the rumor
and little attention was paid TO it. 1t is
said, however, that Senator Faulkner
may be offered the Chief Justiceship OF
the new court, ana some Of his frSends
here are inclined TO think he will ac-
cept it if requested to do so by the Pres
ident. The position pays salary OF
Sc. 500 year aud holds for life. The
court, though nominally local one,
will possess powers which will make it
practically a Federal court, inferior In
jurisdiction and dignity only TO the
Supreme Court of the United States.
The Chief Justiceship of such body
will be a position of great honor and
Importance. The report that Senator
Faulkner might be appointed to the
place and resign from the Senate, 1t is
needless to say, aroused much interest
and discussion among the West Virgin
ians in town to-day. II the Senator
resigned, Gov. MacCorkle would have the
appointment OF his successor, and the
the general belief seemed to be that he
would appoint Hon. Joe Chiffon.

If you are shipping poultry in the

paint your name and address on the
sides and ends of the coop and the buy
er's name on top, or use the common
shipping tags.
The coop will weigh about 31s
pounds, and will hold trio of fowls of
the American class or four of the
medium size. Coops for turkeys and
larger fowls can be made any size de-
sired. When fowls are to be shipped a
long distance feed and water should be
placed in the coop and the following
words painted on the top:
''Please feed and water"
good cup to hold feed is made by
taking common tin cup and soldering
a strip of tin to the side, which can be
wound around the upright. This cup
is for water, and sort of pocket can
be sewed on the cloth to hold grain.
Be sure to fasten this SO the top will

ship only good stock, and be sure to
feed and water them before being de-
livered to the express agent.-Ohio

REGARDING CRlB3ING.
A Dangerous and Disagreeable Vice Pc
culiar to Horses.

Dangerous and Disagreeable Vice Pc
culiar to Horses.
Cribbing, otherwise wind-sucking or
swallowing air, says the London Live
Stock Journal, is a vice peculiar to
horses alone. 1t is a vice which may
be checked by mechanical appliances,
but is rarely entirely eradicated. The
removal of the manger and placing the
horses food on the ground will not
prevent determined cribber swallow
ing air. The sides of the stall he will
sometimes utilize for the same pur-
pose, and some horses will crib on their
own body. Others learn to crib with
out any support at all. 1t has been
clearly proved that what is known as
cribbing is not, as was once thought,
an act of belching and expelling gas
from the stomach. but of swallowing
air into it. Horses killed after crib
bling have had the gases in their stom-
achs and intestines subjected to chem
ical analysis, with the result that pure
air has been found. Moreover, other
experiments have been made which
lead to the same conclusion. An empty
bladder inserted in the gullet in a pre-
scribed way is found to he distended
with pure air after the act of cribbing.
The vice of cribbing, in the way it is
most usually performed. is destructive
to the teeth of the horse, and SO inter-
feres with the proper mastication of
his food. Swallowing air, however, in
any way, frequently results in serious
intestinal troubles-indigestion flatu-
lency, colicky pains and other all
ments. The owner of a cribbing horse
is in possession of troublesome, UNI

AGRICULTURAL HINTS.
CHEAP sHIPPING COOP.

Description OF One That Combines Mum.
Der of Advantages.
During the winter and spring a great
deal of fancy poultry is shipped by
breeders to all parts of the country.
An item of great Importance to the
shipper. and still greater to the buyer
of thoroughbred poultry. is how to
build light, strong and cheap ship
ping coop. Nothing will SO injure a
breeders reputation as to ship poultry
to a customer in an old box or a heavy
coop, for who wants to pay double ex-
press rates on a coop weighing twice
or thrice more than a properly built
one should?
With the present high rates of ex-
press. poultry should he shipped in the
highest coop possible. 1 have been
using light and cheap shipping coop
during the last few years and will de-
scribe it call it the Oakland ship
ping coop" The illustration is of a
coop a4x12 inches, and Is inches high.
Build of common lath, which will cost
about 80 cents per bunch. Saw two
lath through the center; this will give
four strips, each "a inches long; three
are for the top and bottom of the sides
For the bottom of tie coop get half
inch board 12 inches wide and "a inches
long, or nail together two pieces OF
boards the required width and length.
The four upright strips are each 1S
inches long. and should be nailed to the
24-inch strips SO as to form a square
frame, but be sure to nail the bottom
strip SO there will be one half-inch
f1ange on the lower side, in order to
nail the frame to the bottom boards.
After these are nailed to the bottom
boards get four strips of lath each IL
inches long, for the ends. Nail two of
these to the bottom and frame, and
this makes the bottom and sides all
complete. Then nail the other two
end strips at the top of the frame, and
your coop is complete. Mailing an
other strip at one end of the top, next
to the uprights, leaves n space one
inch wide for ventilation. Use COM
ferred, as they can be bent and will
not break. Be sure to clinch all nails
where driven through the laths.
Now for the cover. Procure cheap
muslin five cents per yard, and fasten
it on with 6 ounce tacks. Tack one
end of the cloth to an upright and then
tear the cloth through the center,
which will make two pieces Is inches
wide. Stretch the cloth tight and tack
at the top and bottom; continue around
the sides and ends until the first up.

tackled, then tear off the cloth and turn

Function of the Bees Sting.

It will be surprise to many to
learn that, after all, the most impor-
tant function of the bees sting is not
singing. have long been convinced
that the bees put the finishing touches
on their artistic cell work by the
dexterous use of their stings, and that
during this final finishing stage of the
process of honey making the bees in
iect q minute portion of formic acid in
the honey. This is, in reality, the poison
of their sting. The formic acid gives
to the honey its peculiar flavor. and al
80 imparts to it its keeping qualities
The sting is really an exquisitely con-
trived little trowel, with which the bee
finishes OF and caps the cells when they
are filled brimful of honey. While do
ing this the formic acid passes from the
poison bag, exudes drop by drop from
the point of the sting. and the beauti-
full work Is Observation-Disclosures News

THE POULTRY YARD.

SPENDING dollars worth of time in
the attempt to cure ffty-cent chicken
is poor business.
To BREAK up broody hen, shut her
up the first night you find her on the
nest. The longer she sits the more
''set' in her ways she becomes.
In dealing with lice, prevention is
better than cure. A thorough renova-
ton of houses and coops now may save
much trouble later on. Give them q
complete soaking with sailed white
wash.
IT is not well to feed corn steadily to
breeding turkeys. On corn alone they
are less likely to lay fertile eggs. No
fowls appreciate bugs and worms more
nor thrive better upon it. If possible
set several hens at the same time, and
make one flock of all the broods.-Farm
