ANSWER.

Select dozen of your best young
hens to begin with; then during the
fair buy a cock and three or four hens
of good Plymouth Rocks or Wyan-
dottes this writer would prefer the
white if to be kept on sandy soil, and
the parti-colored if on clay soiD.
Have no other cock on the
place. Let things work according
to the order of nature. Care
fully save the eggs from the pure-bred
hens and use them alone for Matching.
From the pure-bred breeding stock
there can with care be raised IT'S chicks
the first year. After this kill. off all
the common stock, and buy every year

PEAcEAsLE SNAKE INDIANS.

Young Chief Delivers an Eloquent Address
Replete With Love For the Whites.
A delegation of Snake Indians visited
the red men of the Umatilla reservation
recently. When they started for home,
Young Chief delivered the following
eloquent farewell address to his visitors:
1--WE part tonight. Not as before, for
once hate was between us. Now there
is love. Once war; now peace. Once
we swung the tomahawk and aimed the
deadly rife at each others hearts. Now
the pipe Of peace We smoke to show that
the past is passed and buried. In other
ways it is different. There was time
when some of us lay in ambush against
the whites. But we have all put aside
the implements of war and cultivate the
arts of peace. Our fathers swore eter-
nal vengeance on the palefaces. This
was because of the tradition handed US
by them of an invasion of trappers and
traders who valued not the Indians life.
They went to the sea and found their
friends at Astoria by the great water
and left some to mourn their Indian
dead. But we live side by side with
him now, and from the rising to the
setting sun we know no foe for whom
We would put on the warpaint and
ride forth to return with scalps hang
Ing at our belts. Our ponies no more
carry US to bloody attack. We own the
great father at Washington as our great
chief. Him We obey. The past is for
gotten. Major Jim. go to your people
and say Young Chief sends them peace
and good will. Portland Oregonian.

A TRUE FISH STORY.
It IL . Connecticut Product and Relates to
aLost bracelet and An Eel.

Lost Bracelet and an Eel.
Savilian Beebe of this place made q
big haul with his eel spear few days
ago. Last July among the people who
sojourned at Essex was wealthy Gin
cinnati family. A young lady member
of this family went out boat riding one
evening, and during the trip she lost
valuable bracelet from her arm.
The bracelet was in the form of gold
chain that fastened with hook. The
young lady was very much distressed
over the loss of the ornament, and she
offered reward Of SEQ for its recov-
cry. Fishermen searched the river bot
tom for it in vain.
A few days ago Beebe, who usually
makes about two ceiling trips to the Con-
necticut river during the winter, hitch
ed up his horse and drove down. The
ice was rather thin on the old ceiling
ground, and Beebe was obliged to go
about mile up the river to Brockway's
bend. Here the ice was soft. and Beebe
began work. He worked gil day like a
beaver and succeeded in getting but one
very small eel.
The next moxning he decided to have
fried eel for breakfast anyhow. He took
the eel down from the nail on the side
of the house, where he had hung it the
night before. 1t was frozen as stiff as a
marline spike, but he took it out into the
woodshed, and In less than a minute he
had its hide of.
He then ran his knife into the cells
throat and showed 1t toward its tail.
When about half way down, the point of
the knife struck something that refused
to be cut in two. He slashed into the
cells middle. To his establishment, a
long metal chain, as bright as If new,
lay lengthwise of the stomach.
He showed the chain to his wife.
Mrs. Beebe took the thing and exam
ined it. On the heel of the clasp the
name OF the young woman who lost the
bracelet last summer was engraved.
The circumstances of the lost bracelet
were known to the people of Salem, and
after breakfast Savilian hitched up his
horse and headed for Essex, where he
delivered the bracelet to the people with
whom the Cincinnati family boarded
and received the SEQ reward.-Salem

The United States representative for
the first time took his place in the high
est rank this week at the royal social
functions. Mr.. Bayard stood last but
one In the small group OF ambassadors

occasions like this is no less strict than
the queen herself In all matters Of ETH

ordinary evening dress at levees were
notified recently to wear white studs
and plain white gloves instead Of with
black braid. His royal highness is

In moments time. Kirtley Breem's isolate. dosolats, seif-prilpned life had been magically touched and softened- and here the only vacation the manag- ing editor hao ever known had really begun-by rough old Elijah Whittaker's cunning and protecting perception; for 1t carried along with 1t those firm. fine human qualities of consideration and compassion which can alone reach re- assure and rescue the sore and harried human heart.
 They had passed the managing edi- tors desk and moved together without apparent purpose to a window over l looking the roofs and checkered chan nels of the great city. The disk was al- ready purplins the dusty ways and 80 swiftly marshaling the city lights. that 1t soon seemed like a great Armament of upleaping stars beneath them. l Editor Whitaker saw that his com panion's eyes were fixed on q little pockety hollow of shadow--a miserable quarter of the city which he also well knew-between high and crowding walls. perhaps half a mile to the north of Printing House square; but he let him look and think undisturbed with his hand upon his shoulder. so long as the mood remained upon him.
 Standing thus, his features were by turns set and hard, filled with alarm and apprehension stern with sudden resolve. quivering In apparent hopeless pity, or drawn in pain and discourage ment. At last hot tears tumhled from his face almost bounding. Editor Whit taker imagined, toward the dark hol- low between the northern walls.
 "This is inexcusable!" he faltered with start, seeming. to suddenly recol- lect that a board member stood beside him.
 "Bsh! This Is dead rightw retorted Editor Whitaker with a burst of feel ing, in which objects grew hay before his own pudgy face. "Ye don't have t give 1t a name, neither, Kirtley Breem. V
 "Twenty-two years" said the manag- ing editor deliberately, as if thinking inclination of his head in the direction of the bit of light-surrounded shadow between the walls.
 Editor Whittaker's rough hand strok. ed his shoulder softly and reassuringly
 And always darkenins, darkening just as you see it noww This, still as if thinking aloud and with his thin fin, ger trembling toward the spot which was fast merging from shadow into blackness.
 Lots O change in that time;" saiG Editor Whitaker comfortingly.
 "In some things there Is no changer It came almost as groan from Kirtley Breem's lips. Then, determinedly "When must leave the city?" "Morning-morning" was the stou and almost aggressive reply. If do not go-my place will be,fillet by another?" You go. That's passed the board! "Well, will go; on one condition" Needn't name 1t. Its yours afor' namin'." ....n That you-no otherrC human being .

"Nine, t tn stroke O tn hour. Pull out your watch, t tn minute. wherever ye be. an know it's done" Kirtley Breem looked into the honest old eyes m instant. when he stepped to his desk with an almost youthtui tread and wrote three names ana aa- dresses which Editor Whitaker placed Isboriously in his wallet. Then the mana ging editor hastily set his DOCKS and papers aright: called his assistant and gave him few general directions' and, with his still vigilant guard close beside him, with many timorous nus and starts and attempts to return, which were promptly checked ey ms companion. he at last found himseit i upon the crowded street. "bon't 1t feel like out O prison, now, honest. Breem?"
 Honestly, It feels like the sensation of being hanged: but God bless you, Mir. Whitaker! Is in the jingle and choking of 1t all!"
 ] Tut tut! Bother! Bosh! Why, He's ! a blessin' of you this very minute" ! They grasped hands and stood there l n Breem's hand was withdrawn, there were bills of large denomination within | 1t. The crowd had pushed between him and his companion; but he could see his fat hands waving him away and hear his kindly voice roaring above the din of the street:
 "Jest a word. when you're anchored, t know where ye be, If ye don't mind. Forglt the Motor. Forgit yourself. For git trouble. Go back twenty year-t' where ye was raised, mebby-an' begin over again! Good-bye"
 Whereupon Kirtley Breem set his again darkening face hurriedly toward the black spot between the towering city walls, and for the last time.
 That's a human bein' that's been murdered by inches half his lifetime;' unused Editor Whitaker, watching him closely as he pushed through the dense early evening throngs of Park Row. "An' he's stood an took 1t like steel, or one O them air gods they tell about. I thought had stuff in me. I ain't in tn same hundred year with that fel- loww
 He at once examined the slip of paper which Kirtley Breem had given him and began muttering:
