Discussed.
The production of Injured 1nnocents"
at City Hall last evening was an event
long expected blythe Athletic Club mem
bers and their friends, and an entertain
ment long to be remembered by the
people of Portland. 1t was perform
ance by amateurs, many of whom were
upon the stage for the first time; but it
may be doubted whether, in several OF
the most essential features of good en-
tertainment, it could have been sur
passed by professionals.
Injured Innocents" was first produced
four years ago by the Boston Cadets,
and has not been produced since until
last evening. Messrs. Robert A. Barnet
and Carl Pfueser, of Boston author
and composer respectively of 1892" also,
kindly loaned for the occasion the book
and score. The piece is founded upon
the old English ballad, which begins
like this:
A gentlemen of good account.
In Norfolk dwelt of late,
Who did in honor far surmount
Most men of his estate.
Sore sicke he was, and like to dye,
No helpe his life could save;
| His wife by him as sickle did lye,
| And both possest one grave.

The Coming Cattle Feed

The New Mexico experiment
station has issued report from
which the following is taken: The
forage plant we call alfalfa has been
grown in the southwest for many
years under the name Of Caliean or
California clover. 1t was known to
Greeks and Romans 1890 years ago,
and was used as a forage plant be
fore the Christian era. 1t was in
troduced into Mexico at the time of
the conquest, thence into South
America, and from Chill to Cali
fornia in 1854, where it is grown
more successfully than elsewhere.
It found its way into this territory
early in the sixties.
Alfalfa, or lucerne. as the French
call it. fourishes below an altitude
Of 1000 feet, and on soil that Will
produce no other crop, especially in
these dry, arid regions.
"Soils underlaid with shale, hard
pan or impervious clay, are not
suited to its successful growth, in
asmuch as its roots must penetrate
the subsoil to moisture. 1t is the
most tenacious Of all foreign plants,
enduring more harsh treatment,
more dry weather, heat and cold,
after making stand than any other.
Its growth Is exceedingly rapid.
In some soils and under favorable
conditions it often makes a growth
of thirty to forty-fiVe inches a
month and in some localities a
cutting is made every month during
the summer. According to analysis
and practical experiments in feeding
horses and cattle the first cutting is
considered the best, inasmuch as it
contains more fatten:ng elements
and is stronger food. For milk
COWS the third and fourth cutting
are the best. The feeding value Of
of alfalfa is clearly demonstrated
in practical feeding Of cattle, work
ing teams and milk cows. No
other clover grass or forage plant
compares with it or contains a
greater per cent. Of protein sub
stances.
In harvesting it should be cut
just as it is coming into bloom, be-
cause at that stage Of growth it con
tains the greatest amount Of yalu-
able element, though not so heavy
When slightly wilted it should be
raked into windows and then into
small cocks to be cured. If left to
cure before raking. the stems harden,
the leaves drop off, the color is lost
and much of the hay is rendered
unfit for feed. On low land where
the roots have access to moisture
continually, it needs little or no
irrigation. Texas Stockman.

THE EVIL EYE.
A Bank Cashiers Optics Frightened
a Deposition.


A young man who is employed in
a big establishment in this city,
says the New York Tribune, went
to the cashier recently and asked
him to put small sum Of money in
the safe for him, so that he could be
sure Of knowing that it would not
get lost. The next morning he ap-
peared before the cashier looking
very nervous.
Can I have my money back?"
he asked anxiously.
Certainly" said the cashier, IF
You want it. It's yours, and yours
only
The young man took his money
and went away looking much re-
lieved.
This incident, related to an up
town group. reminded a man, now
a millionaire, Of an early experience
in his life.
"When | was young" he said, Il
went out west looking for gold. /
landed finally in mining camp in
Idaho in pretty bad condition fnan-
cially, but here / had little luck
and began to save, When | had
accumulated gold dust worth
couple of hundred dollars I tramp
ed down the valley to a mining
town and deposited it in the bank
there. Then | turned back to my
cabin.
Il got to thinking that evening.
and the more | thought about it
the more | knew that | did not like
the look in the eye of the chap who
had received my money. 1t was i'm
possible for me to go to sleep, SO |
got up somewhere around midnight,
dressed and walked back down the
valley, getting to the town about 4
o'clock in the morning. There |
sat down on the steps of the bank
to wait developments. | had
made up my mind by this time that
there was not one chance in a
thousand of my ever getting back
my money. | did dot believe that
the man would be in the bank when
it was opened. He had taken my
money and fed. But | had
brought my revolver, and | was
determined to kick up terrible
rumpus with somebody about it. /
sat there until man came along in
the morning and opened the doors
| asked him for my money, and
he said he couldn't give it to
me; that | would have to wait for
the teller. That was just what /
had expected. The teller was the
man with the bad eye, and | knew
he would not turn up.
"'All right l said to the man,
I'm going to wait here, and if some
one doesn't produce my money
pretty quick there is going to be
trouble
"Well, that man with the bad
eye did appear, much to my surprise.
| watched him enter the bank, go
behind the counter and get ready
for business. Then [ went up to
him, holding out the slip of paper
which he had given me as an ac-
acknowledgement of my deposit.
81 want my money! / said, in a
tone that meant business.
, He looked at me, evidently
recognizing me, with a smile on his
face.
"'Now,' | said,' don't try to
make excuses. | want my money
and I'm going to have it.
AT that he burst into laughter.
"'My son, he said, you may have
it, if you want it, but there is no
need to worry about it. See here
and he threw open vault door,
showing me whole sacks of gold.
"He finally convinced me that my
little $500 was safe, but chat night
of worry over my deposit was the
worst l ever spent over my financial
troubles.
