hanged two canary birds. There was
no one near at the time and the little
ones were entirely helpless. When

lives had gone out. It was an awful

hardest heart. The mother could not
be found at first, but diligent search
revealed her behind some bushes near
the house. She was taken into GUS

The Strike.

CHICAGO, July yesterday morn
ing 200 deputies went to Blue Island,
where trouble existed. They were un-
able to move the trains in face of 2, 600
strikers and were driven back. De-
mand was made for troops and the I'd
regiment of [. n. G. was ordered to the
spot No engineers or fremen could
be found to haul the militia.
Operations against the strikers began
at aeconference between United States
Judges Woods and Grosscup, Edwin
Walker, special solicitor appointed by
Attorney General Qlney, and District
Attorney Milchrist. The lawyers had
a bulky typewriter bill asking the
federal courts to enjoin the strikers
from interfering with the mails. The
bill was an omnibus document covering
all the roads, It was submitted to the
judges informally before il was fled,
and discussion Of its frame and prayer
occupied the court and lawyers for
some time. The injunction was issued,
MINNEAPOLIS, July 3.-There was
practically no change in the Twin
Cities yesterday, so far as the strike
goes. The Milwaukee fremen. to the
number of 100, went out early in the
day, and some men on the Minnesota
Eastern transfer refused to work, adj
ding to the general complication of the
situation. There seems to be no ques-
ton but what there were more men in
the A. r. U. movement last night than
on the previous day, and there is still
the same uncertainty about the entire
matter.
The strikers seem to have complete
control over the freight departments Of
the Milwaukee, ST. Louis, Omaha,
Great Western. Burlington, Great
Northern and Wisconsin Central where
they have ordered strikes, for not
freight train moved on those roads yes
terdav. In brief, the freight traffic of
the Twin Cities is paralyzed, and the
managers of the railroads seem to be
making no efforts to remedy the stu
alton. The freight offices are manned
by few men, who have nothing to do.
A deputy United States marshal, who
returned from a trip out Of the Twin
Cities over the Chicago Great Western
road on the Chicago train last night,
states that in South st. Paul mob of
women stoned the train. The passenger
train. with its two sleeping coaches,
left Minneapolis exactly at 6;55, the
scheduled time. In st. Paul it was de-
layed almost 40 minutes, due to trouble
in switching in the yard, and it was
over half an hour late when it got into
South ST Paul.

Assasslnated President.
PARIS, June 29.-M. Casimir-Perier.
president of the chamber OF deputies.
was elected president of the third re-
public of France at the palace Of Yer
sailles by the congress of both houses
of parliament. The national assembly
consisting of the members Of the SEN
ate and chamber of deputies, num-
bered 1853. and Casimlr- Perier received
451 votes on the first ballot. The
result was announced amid great
cheering and the new president was
overwhelmed with congratulations.
among the first to extend these being
NJ. Dupuy, the premier. The scene
was very brilliant one. The election
took place in the great hall or theater
of the palace which has witnessed so
many memorable events in the history
of France under the republic, the Ma
poleons and the Bourbons. Here it
was that on January 10, 1871, King
William of Prussia, whose armies
held Paris, was proclaimed German
emperor.
The ministers formally rendered
their designations to him. Casi1nir-
Perier requested them to remain in
Office It's doubtful, however, whether
zDupuy, the prime minister, will retain
Office. 1t is expected, in the event of
his insisting upon his resignation be-
ing accepted, that the president will
summon Burdeau to form cabinet.

FEEDING AT A LOSS.
How to Manage Poultry SO as to Secure
Fair Profit.

How to Manage Poultry so as to Secure
Fair Profit.
1t should be considered in keeping
poultry that flock of hens are, to a
certain extent, scavengers on the farm.
and they should be permitted to per-
form that function. The hen can see
the smallest seed on the ground, and
every square inch of the surface is
carefully searched. The amount of
food which she can secure for herself
during the day, unaided. is quite large,
and she consumes great variety of
substances that would be lost but for
her appropriation of them. On the
range she not only consumes grass and
seeds, but destroys a large number of
insects also, and every ounce of food
thus secured is SO much gain to the
farmer, of which he should avail him
self IT,.
During the summer months the hens
require less food than in the winter.
though something depends on how
they may be situated, and how many
eggs may be layed, but when on the
range they cannot fail to secure full
supply of all that they require if they
are active and Industrious. If the
farmer continues to feed them he will
waste the food given, as the hens will
not seek food On the range if they are
fed in the barnyard, becoming lazy
end sluggish, and also overburdened
With fat. BY withholding food the
cost of the eggs will be reduced, and
Of course the profit will be much,
greater
As an experiment, take two focks
that are alike. and give them free
range. Feed one flock at the barn
yard, allowing grain twice day, and
compel the other flock to pick up its
food provided the range is good), and
the flock that receives no food at the
barnyard will not only lay more eggs
than the other, but will also keep in
better condition, while the flock that
is given plenty of grain will be fat,
and will contain larger proportion of
hens that desire to sit. OF course,
such method will not answer for all
the seasons, but applies to the warm
days of summer only, and the expert
ment is worthy of being made.-Farm
and Preside.

= A BROOKLYN statistician figures that
there are 100000 cats in the City of
Churches, and that one-tenth of the
million or SO population are kept
awake nightly by the feline concerts.
This is at the rate of one case of in
somnia for each cat, and the Medical
Record calculates from this that there
are in the United States 5000, 900 cats
and 5000. 900 cases of insomnia. Plain
ly this is a factor in human health
which the doctors cannot afford to ig-
more. 1t is folly to treat patient
for insomnia with sugar-coated pellets
when the prescription should be leaden
pills for the cats.
