appalling than the living body made
repulsive with skin and scalp diseases
salt-rheum, letter, eczema and scrofulous

Medical Discovery is the positive cure for
all of these diseases. If taken in time, it
also cures Lung-scrofula' commonly
known as Pulmonary Consum ptlon. By

THEY SHOULD ROAST.

1t is now asserted that the terrible
fires that have swept through the Min
nesota forests were started by tim Der
thieves. At the last session of the Min
nesota legislature Ignatius Donnelly ac-
cused the timber ring of systematically
robbing the state for years, and further
asserted that this action was conniyed
at by state officials. A legislative com
mittee was appointed to examine into
the matter, and it is said found abuud-
ant proof that the charge was true. The
timber ring had been cutting the tim
Der from state and school lands. The
ring learning this, in order to cover up
their tracks and to render it impossible
to estimate the amount of lumber stolen.
set fires in the tops and brush of the
lands cut over, intending to SO burn the
stumps that no idea could be formed as
to their size. The fire, the conditions
being extraordinarily favorable,got away
froin them, burned over an area of 1000
square miles, destroyed $40. 900 900
worth of pine timber, and over 400
lives.
If the offense can be proven, every
person connected with it, or having
knowledge of the fact that the fires were
to be set, should be, when proven guilty..
condemned to death and executed by a
slow roasting process.

covered that someone was in the habit
OF stealing from his store, placed trap
gun therein, and the next morning
found dead man on the floor. The
man was criminal, it is true, but the

mans right to kill another either for the
onense so committed, and certainly not
In the manner. The grocer will not be
bothered by burglars soon, but at the
same time he may be sent to the peni-,
tentlary for few years, as the killing of
another in the way the grocer laid his
burglarious visitor out is called by the
very ugly name of manslaughter.

and seemed to relish it immenselv
This done, he informed the folks that he
had lived long enough and that he had
concluded to bring his earthly existence
to close. He said he had lived a man
and was going to die a man. He advised
the folks to live honest lives and to do as
near what was right as possible. Then
after bidding them all good bye he or
dered them to all go to the barn SO thew

do nothing Else than go. After they
were all in the barn Jim stepped inside

HOW HIGH WILL A KITE COZ

Eighteen Hundred Feet the Maximum Al
titude That Single Kite Can Reach.
1t is one of the most difficult under
takings imaginable to even approxi-
mately estimate the height of a kite
above the earth. This is on account of
the fact that objects floating in the air
seem to be farther away than they
really are. 1t may be safely said, saws
the st. Louis Republic, that 1900 feet
Is the maximum altitude that can pos
slbly be attained by single kite A
kite Tying at the height mentioned will
appear even to a conservative observer
to be nearly if not quite a half mile
above the surface of the earth, but
careful measurement of a string and its
angle will quickly prove that it could
not have been more than a fourth of a
mile above the ground Ordinarily a
kite will go no higher, even if more
string be paid out; this is because the
wind depresses the cord and causes the
kite to really recede when it appears
TO rise. 1t has been said that it is pos
slble to arrange several kites in such a
manner that they will reach a higher
altitude than it is possible to attain
with single kite. In this manner
where three, four, or even dozen kites
have been used remarkable heights |
have been reached.
Where more than one kite is used
only the main one is attached to tbe |
end of the string, the others being at
tached along the main line Gin a man /
ner similar to the arrangement of the
hooks along "a ''trotline'0 at an aver
age distance of about twelve feet
apart Hinkleman, who made expert
ments at Buda-Pesth, and Irlson and
Watson, whose Investigations under
the Russian Academy of Sciences were
carried on at Edeenea, Finland, report
curious results. Where single kites
could be forced up into the atmosphere
to a height of 1,5O0 feet, pair could
be made to ascend to a height of from
S,ooo to 2,loo feet, and a tandem easily
reached the high-water mark of $500
feet The three experimenters alluded
to believe that with proper arrange
ment of the kites, and with a scientific
adjustment of both the tail and string,
a height of two miles will eventually
be reached.

MUCH MONEY IN HoGs.

Ex-Sheriff Matt Scott, of Lynn county,
having just disposed of carload of hogs,
raised and fattened on the best quality

duces, says the Portland Oregonian, be-
lieVes that raising 'tporkers'' will be one
of the greatest industries of the Will
annette valley, just as soon as sufficient
demand is made, and market opened.
"We could get rs cents bushel for
our wheat" said Mr.. Scott, ''by feeding
It to hogs, if we had big packing
establishment here somewhere. At this
time, however, there is market only for

am convinced we can produce pork
equal to any in America with our wheat,
and as said before, get as high as 75
cents bushel in this way for the wheat.
4tSeveral old-time farmers living near
me stood watching me pour my wheat to
the pigs and at once concluded 1 ought
to be sent to Jail for extravaganza. I
didn't say anything, but went right on
saving wood, and when the time came
for taking my fat hogs to market, you
couldn't put one of them in wool sack
after it was killed.

on foot. This pays me better than sell
ing wheat at 40 cents bushel. But.

In this vicinity, we can't all raise pork.
hope some such establishment will be
founded and we can go into the business
of furnishing it with material to work on.
Pork is now shipped from Eastern Ore
goD to the Eastern market, and cured
into hams, shoulders and bacon to be re-
turned to Portland and the Willamette
valley for consumption. This is not
right, and something ought to be done
to keep this business at home, and, also
to give US sufficient market to infuse
the pork producing industry with new
life.''

LINooLN's DUEL
1t Was Arranged With General
Shields, but Wasn,t Fought.

1t Was Arranged with General
Shields, but Wasn't Fought.
president Abraham Lincoln and General
Shields once arranged to fight a duel al
Alton" said L. F. Taylor of that place. SIT
is remembered yet by the old settlers. Shields
had offended a young lady at Springfie Id by
attempting some liberty with her, and she got
even by sending an article about it to a
Springfield paper, signing a nom de plume
The next day General Shields called upon
the editor and gave him twenty-four hours
during which to divulge the name of the
author or to take the consequences.
"The editor, who was a friend of Abraham
Lincoln, called upon him and asked what to
do. Not thinking it was a very serious
affair, Lincoln promptly said:-sTell him
that I wrote IT.
'The editor did SO, and General Shields
challenged Lincoln to a duel, the latter ac-
ceptiug and choosing broadswords as the
weapons, and an island opposite Alton as the
place. The principals and seconds went to
the place appointed, when a chance remark
of Lincoln that he hated to kill Shields be-
cause he lied about writing an article In
order to protect a lady, brought about q re-
Cancellation, and the duel failed to come off.
Hundreds of people were on the bank Of
the river, and, to carry out a Joke, a log was
dressed up, placed in a skif, the occupants
tanning it NTH their hats as though it was
an injured man, and the excitement was in
tense. 1t always remained a sore spot with
Lincoln, and but little was ever said about
1t. "-Globe-D Democrat.

Passion Sunday. as Yesterday was. a recital

For Passion Sunday, then, the subject
Cross" one: Of the best examples of that
writer's finished style. The work is full of
exquisite coloring, which the choir at least
labored to give faithful expression to, but
for SO small a volume of voices, a less am
bilious work would have been more satisfac
torily rendered.
The ensemble work was then, the leads
irresolute and the climaxes not effectively
treated. Some of the voices were decidedly
off tone In the movement for alto voices
only, beginning with the words, when the
Morning. the singers were fully an eighth
of a tone fat, and this was maintained
throughout, despite the warning tone from
the organ. The male voices were little bet
ter. When they sang alone, land when
they came out" they were below pitch, too
Equally disappointing was the manner in
which the best choruses In the work were
sung. Not to be in the least captious
or hypercritical, 1t must be said
that the choir did not present the
effective choral work In a proper light.
Take, for instance, the chorus, Away With
Him. describing the angry populace de-
nouncing Our Saviour. Instead Of vigorous
