COWS II . question Of interest to those
who have no silo. There arc those who
have tried roughage Of various kinds and
noted results. One such II John ".
Delk, and he gives his experience in
Epitomist. He says:
We have been testing for some time
the different kinds of roughage COM
monty raised on the farm, and find that
common fodder corn Is one Of the best
for cows giving milk. Our COWS Do bet
ter. give more milk and produce moro
butter when fed on it during winter than
any other kind we have tried, and We
get such large yield from the ground,
~ compared with other kinds of rough
age, making from seven to eight tons Of
the very choicest per acre when it 10
cured and housed a. it should be. When
it lie cut At the right stage and properly
cured, our COWS even eat the stalk 20
there is but very little waste.
Sorghum ie our next preference; it
makes An excellent feed for COWS in
milk, and lie one Of the best for young
cattle. Our cattle will all stay fat and
sleek on it, but the ones in milk, when
changed from sorghum roughage to that
Of fodder corn, show . eight increase
both in milk and butter. Hence We rec
ommend fodder corn in preference to
other hay or roughage, for it has been
proven to be . fact here in the South
that sorghum hay could not be exceIled
by many others for dairy cattle, and some
even went 90 far ne to say that it was the
best-none excepted. Let that Be a. it
may, our experience has proven to rs
that the fodder corn produced the greater
amount of milk and butter, and that 10
what We feed and attend to our cows for.
1t not only proves to be good in winter,
but in dry, hot weather Of late summer.
When our pastures are failing we find
that bundle of fodder corn not only in
creases the amount Of butter, but il
eaten with a relish by the COWS. 1t may
not produce ae much per acre a. some,
such As sorghum, COW peas, ETC., but will
make more than the major part OF our
having plants per acre, besides giving 20
much more beneficial results.

SACRAMENTO. October 27.-At noon to-
day, while E. L. Hawk, real estate
agent, WAS in his Office, q young man
hurriedly entered and, presenting . pis-
toll at his head, ordered him to open his
safe. Hawk parleyed with the fellow,
telling him there was not . cent in it
The robber said:
"Well, produce what you have in your
pockets and do il - quick"
Hawk produced 90 cents, and threw it
on the counter. The robber picked it
up, and backed out of the Office. He
walked down Fourth street to J, followed
by Hawk, and at the corner OF Third
street, seeing q policeman, he jumped
into . buggy standing at the sidewalk
and drove away. The policeman ran
after him, caught up to the buggy and
placed the man under arrest. The rob
Der pulled his revolver, but the police
man caught the barrel and, assistance
arriving, wrenched it from him and
handcuffed him. He was taken to the

Frank Jones. At the station he said he
was fool not to have killed the police

WITHOUT A PARALLEL.



CHICAGO, October 2s.-For nearly q
month German girl, who left the city
OF her birth TO come 10 Chicago, has been
detained by the immigration officials at
Ellis leland, New York. and a petition
is being prepared for presentation TO
Secretary Carlisle. asking that the girl
I've permitted 10 land. The girl lie Louise
Hessing. No other case just like hers
" a. ever brought 10 the attention OF the
immigration officials. Louise, who is 25
wears old, Was left an orphan in the city
OF Chemnitl. For several years she
N ade living as a domestic. A year or
80 ago Louise became engaged to Max
Luther, a Young mechanic OF Chemnitz.
The bans were published in church and
the wedding day set, but Luther betrayed
her and ran away. The girl has but one
relative. and that is Mrs. Nina Mueller
OF this city. Mrs. Mueller went to Ger.
many 10 look after her sister, and decid-
ed 20 bring her 10 Chicago and give her a
home. They landed in New York Sep
TEN her -, but Immigrant Commissions
Scnner refused 10 permit the girl TO con-
unue her journey and ordered her back
10 Germany. The Commissioner action
WAS based solely on the condition OF the
girl. Mrs. Mueller hurried TO Chicago,
and procured bonds TO guarantee that
her sister would never become a public
charge. This did no; satisfy the Com
missioner. and the latter refuses TO
change this ruling. There is no law that
applies TO the case except the statute ex-
Guiding females of immoral character,
and the girls friends offered testimony
20 prove that previous 10 her misfortune
her character was OF the best. The Of
iered testimony was rejected. and the
friends determined TO appeal TO Secre-
tary Carlisle. The petition has been
signed hy numerous friends of the Muel-
Ter family, and also bears the signatures
Of Mayor Hopkins, Collector NJ. ]. Rus
sell, Collector Mize and Postmaster He
sing. The position OF the Commissioner
is that no bond can lie given that will
guarantee that the child, still unborn.
will never become public charge. The
girls friends have ample means, and are
people OF the best character.

lands in Oregon which are leased are on
the Umatilla reservation, where forty
two farming and grazing leases have been
made. These range in amount from
seventy-three to 280 acre.. The prevail

PACIFIC CABLE.
Discussion Of British Projscts By sss
francisco Paper.

Francisco Paper.
San Francisco, October 2S.-The Bull
letin this evening says: For some time
past British and Canadian contractors
have been figuring on plans for . cable
from Vancouver TO Australia via Hawaii.
The cost OF this cable 10 estimated In
round numbers at 10000, 900. One OF
the leading promoters of this cable en-.
terprise is Stanford Fleming. He advo-
Gates government ownership, believing
better service will be secured thereby.
He is responsible for most Of the esti-
mates that have been made. Whether
the British government is TO own the
Pacific cable or il il TO be in the hands
OF chartered company, it lie certain that
the government il behind the enterprise.
The news by the last steamer from Ha-
wall 10 that the British commission,
represented by Fleming, wants the lease
OF Neckar Island, q small island about
500 miles from Hawaii, and also wants q
subsidy OF $50, 600 year from the Ha-
waiian government for fifteen years.
What the British government really
wants is q cession Of this Island. A short
time ago it was literally "No mans
land" The Hawaiian government took
possession OF il and claimed it by right
)f occupation. 1t did not want British
occupation OF an island so near to Ha-
wall. The present Hawaiian govern
ment has had great deal OF trouble by
reason OF British antagonism in the ISL
ands. II does not want any further in
reference.
Next TO An American cable between
this port and Honolulu Hawaiians
might appreciate q cable between Van
couyer and Australian ports with mid
way station at Hawaii. They will never
grant outright q foot of land for such q
purpose. They will do nothing TO dis.
tnrb the relations of the Republic TO the
United States. II il not probable that
there would he any formidable obstacle
in the way Of landing marine cable, say
at Honolulu. Private individuals could
make the necessary leases Of land, and
the Hawaiian government would prob
ably grant all neediul protection. II all
that is really wanted is safe and con-
venient place 70 land marine cable on
Hawaiian soil, there would he no need
OF the cession OF any territory. The ca
bic proposed would he a good thing for
the promoters. Tha, good thing can be
secured without concession of foot OF
territory 10 any foreign power.

such to be the Case.
YOKOHAMA, October 2.-It lie reas-
serted that the army corp under Field
Marshal Count Oyama, formerly Min
lister Of War, has effected . landing at
Seikioeso near Port Arthur. It is also
again asserted that the Japanese army
under Field Marshal Yamagata has sue
cessfully crossed the Ialu river and en-
tered Manchuria. 1t was announced
September q that Field Marshal Count
Oyama sailed from Hiroshima with the
second japanese squadron. Since then
it has been repeatedly asserted that the
Japanese had effected a landing near
Port Arthur, and il has been stated .
report WAS current that this important
place had been captured by the Japan
csc. On the other hand, the Japanese
have several times been reported as hav-
ing crossed the lalu river, and also ~
having been repulsed. For instance Oc-
Field Marshal Oyama had crossed the
Yalu river. and the last time he was re-
ported repulsed Was October %, when it
was asserted that both sides lost 5000
men in an engagement, which resulted
in the Japanese being driven southwark.
II the Japanese have been 20 uniformly
successful in their operations against the
Chinese, 1t is difficult to understand how
they have % many of their soldiers
wounded and already sent to the rear.
A dispatch from Chemulpo, October .,
announced that l 800 wounded Japanese
had arrived there. 1t is asserted there
WAS a large number Of Japanese wounded
at Seoul, and it is stated 2,l0o wounded
Japanese soldiers had already been zen,
back to that country. Surprising large
number to mean another 1900, thi.
would show that the whereabouts Of
about 5000 wounded are already known
at Chemulpo, and il is safe to assume
this number does not include those en-.
gagged in the recent fights said to havs
| occurred about the Yalu river.

Caprivi presided. The representatives
Of Bavaria and Saxony opposed the pro-

Ministers declared that Bavaria's own

absolutely sufficient for her needs and
therefore Bavaria would object to any

speaker instanced the recent dissolving
Of two Bavarian trade unions to show
