UNDER FALSE PRETENsEs.-rhe man
who obtains money under false preten-
ses is no more dishonest than the man
who seeks to obtain votes by false pre-
lenses and statements. Mr. Horr, OF New
York is doing this, last night at the
opera house in this city, before a very
big audience. A witty, sarcastic speaker,
he takes advantage OF the times TO make
political capital, a dishonesty that will
be appreciated more in the future when
men view candidly from an impassioned
standpoint the era OF 93-4, than now,
when men are alter votes rega rdless OF
facts; but even now the students of DO
litical economy ascrib- an intelligent
cause to the present depression. Il is
the political demagogue not the political
student, who lays it TO a3y particular
party. In this respect Horr is one OF the
wors: demsgogues who travels. At the
same time he is an entertaining talker.
and enthuses his audiences. sometimes
in the dishonest spirit of
his Tote seeking haraugues. The
Mechanics band in full uniform furnish
ed music for the occasion. As an intro
dac:iOn Prof Charles Hart sang in his
inimitable style, and Mr. Wyatt intro
duced the speaker.

Improving Poor Land.

if man understands the methods
necessary to accomplish it, and has
the time and capital to devote to
that purpose, there is profit in buy
ing worn lands at low price and
bringing them up to state Of pro-
ductiveness at which they can be
cropped. One way of helping run
down land SO that profitabl crops
can be raised is by applying COM
merclal fertilizers. These, if prop
erly used, will very often materially
increase the growth and yield of
crops, out it is questionable if they
add any appreciate permanent fer
tility to the soil. There is one way,
however, by which the use OF this
class of fertilizers can be made an adj
vantage, and that is by increasing
the yield Of the crop for which it is
especially applied. A larger amount
OF feed may thus be procured, and
this affords an opportunity for MAX
ing more manure, and the more ami
NAL manure that can be procured the
better is the chance for the perma-
nent upbuilding OF the soil Glover
is one Of the best materials that can
be used to improve the land, and
where this can be grown the soil is
not past redemption. but some soils
will not grow clover. Tt has become
so devoid of vegeta bic matter that
the clover plant will starve out, and
in this case either Of two plans can
be followed-one Is to use commercial
fertilizers and the other is to seed to
rye, and as soon as reasonably good
growth is secured plow under and
SOW to buckwheat 1t is not to be
expected that land so poor that it
will not grow clover will have sutti-
Gent available plant food to grow
even fair crop Of rye, but the plow-
ing in Of even light growth will
supply some yegeta bic matter, and
generally sufficient to make q crop of

which has resulted in the detection OF
the author of three recent dynamite

HIGGINS HANGED ALONE.
ne was Not Obliged to Share His
Scafiold with Assassin
Frendergast.

CHICAGO, Ill, March j.--oBuf,, Hio-
gins, the murderer, was hanged at noon
to-day IN the corridor of tho county Jail.
tie had his expressed wish and died
alone, Prendergast, with whom Higgins
objected to sharing the scaffold, having
secured stay OF execution until April 6.
Preclsely at II noon the mournful pro-
cession reached the north corridor in
full view of the spectators who had as
sembled to witness the execution.
The sheriff and Jailer Morris
marched directly upon the gall
lows and were Immediately fol-
lowed by the doomed man and
the priests, Higgins being brought to a
stop directly beneath the moose. In
few moments the sheriff and jailer
bound the prisoners feet, his arms al
ready having been secured behind his
back, and the rope was quickly placed
around his neck and the death cap adj
justed. At 1908 the trap was sprung.
Higgins died game. On the scaffiold
he kissed crucifix and smilingly said
goodbye to the priests. His death was
apparently painless. AS the clatter of
the falling trap rang through the cell
corridors the prisoners raised a yell
of "Hang Prendergast." The lit
tie assassin Of Mayor Harrison
crawled further into the corner of his
cell where he sat trembling with rage
and fear. Prendergast would have
nothing to say about the hanging and
seemed overcome with terror by the
sounds accompanying the execution
which he so narrowly escaped.
Higgins crime was one of the most
brutal ever committed in Chicago.
With two other hard characters, Hig-
ging planned to rob an old citizen, Peter
Mccoy. When the old man awoke
and started up to protect his house the
leader Of the gang shot him before he
could leave his bed. The murdered
man was an employee Of the city. A few
days before the murder Mrs. Mccoy
drew their savings, amounting to $500,
from a West Side bank. 1t is supposed
that Higgins heard of this and sur
missed that the money was still in
the house. At 2 A. NJ, Hig-
gins, revolver in hand, entered
the house, his accomplices, ''Red"
McGarry and Harry Filnberg, alias
"Itzky," alias "Sheeny Joe," remain
ing in the yard to keep watch. Nc
Coey was awakened by a noise in his
bedroom. He lifted himself in bed on
his elboy and saw man rummaglng III
bureau drawer. Almost at the same
instant the thief turned and saw that
he was discovered. Without word he
fired at Mccoy, who fell back back in
bed and died almost before his wife,
who was lying by his side, was aroused.
Higgins and his pals fled without OBJ
tanning any money but succeeded IN
evading the police only few hours.

Dairymen Aroused.

The movement to perfect national
organization of dairymen for the
purpose of regulating or if possible
atolishing the manufacture and sale
of the fraudulent compounds called
dairy goods is a cOmmendable I'M
dertaking and should be prosecuted
with vigor. There is no more reason
for allowing the rich packers to fill
the pure products of the farm with
their cheap and filthy refuse than to
permit the counterfeiter to fill the
gold or silver coins with a
spurious metal by which to defraud
the people. 1t does not seem posi-
bic that the honest producers would
have Quietely submitted to the rob-
berry during the years that are past,
and if they continue it, would not
complain of the ruinously low prices
to which they must continue to sub
nit. Did the consumers know that
they were eating butJerine they
would rise up in rebellion. Because
the stuff IS natural in smell and taste
there is nothing to arouse suspicion,
and the consumption increases.

four persons killed were all who were
in the works. All the victims boarded

counted for. The plant consisted Of
four brick buildings These with the
Remaley boarding house were COM

In Case OF Poisoning.


In poisoning BY opium strong

The antidotes to arsenic are table
spoonful doses of dialyzed iron, mag

Carbollc acid; Give a tablespoon
full OF Epson salts stirred in water,
and repeat.
Oxalic acid: Give chalk, lime,
water or magnesia freely.
Corrosive sublimate: White OF egg
and milk in quantities.
In poisoning by acid the use Of
alkalis is indicated, as soda, mag
nesia, chalk lime, and sOapsuds.
When the mischief has been wrought
by strong alkalis acid must be used,
as vinegar, lemon juice, or hard cider.
When the mucous membrane of
the mouth is much inflaned or de-
stroyed, give raw eggs, -four stirred
in water, tlaXseed tea, arrowroot, or

SHIN milk is of value in stock feed

ARRANGE the windows IN stables

ventilation so that the animals will
at no time be exposed to direct

MURDER IN A BANK.
San Francisco Cashier Shot Dead by
all Enraged Patron Of the
institution


San Francisco, Cal, March pa
man entered the branch office of the
San Francisco Savings Union, on Mar
ket Street, to-day, and presented a
check to Assistant Cashier A. Herrick.
After examining the check, Herrick,
having doubts as to its genuineness, re-
turned it. An alteration ensued be-
tween the man and the cashier,
during which the former drew a
pistol and fired several shots
in rapid succession, killing Herrick
almost instantly. The porter of the
bank made an attempt to disarm the
murderer, who Immediately turned his
fire upon him, but fortunately the as
sassin's aim was wild and the bullets
failed of their work. The murderer
fled from the bank pursued by police
and the crowd which had been attract
ed to the scene by the shots. He had
only gone short distance before he was
captured. The murderer gave the name
of Fred Borneman, and the police said
he arrived here last week from Denver.
Later developments show that the
paper presented to Cashier Herrlck by
his murderer was a note written III red
ink stating that the bearer should be
given money or he would blow up the
place with dynamite. On the bottom
was drawn skull and cross bones.
The first shot fired by the assassin
went wide of it's mark and Herrick
reached for his revolver. The cashier
fired at the man but missed, then the
fellow shot a second time. The bullet
entered the head, causing instant death.
c. F. Melvin, the paying teller, also
took a hand in the shooting, firing two
shots at the assassin, both of which
missed. The head cashier was IS years
old and lived in Oakland,

Good Seed.

1t is an axiom that poor seed with
out costing anything is always dearer
than the best at high prices. This
is especially true of the cabbage. 1t
is easy and inexpensive to grow POOR
seed. Any stump from which the
head has been cut will send up shoots
and seed abundantly. But very little
of this seed will produce good heads.
The right way to grow cabbage seed
is to select the best heads and plant
them with root ana head attached.
The seed thus grown will be plump,
and will produce plants that head

Growing Peas in Orchards.

The pea crop is a soil renovator,
with the advantage over clover for
orchards that it does not drain the
soil OF moisture during summer, but
helps rather to keep the surface
moist ana easily permeable to all the
rain that falls. The pea crop gathers
nitrogen from the atmosphere, and
when the crop is fed off by hogs, the
pea vines make an excellent cheap
and rich mulch. With a diet of peas
and fallen apples hogs always thrive
and the pork thus made has larger
proportion of lean meat than has
pork made from corn diet.
