Four hundred and ninety dollars was
recovered. Oldham, Hiltons' accom-
plice, still maintains his innocence
but has withdrawn the abb, with

which the mask was made was found
on Oldham's premises. There seems
TO be no doubt of his guilt.

A NEW METHOD OF CHURNING
Valuable Suggestion in the Care Of the
Nervous Horse--A Few Horti-
cultural Notes.

The Bicycle Horse Book contains the
following very valuable suggestions:
The nervous horse should have less oats
and more bran. The collar must not
be too wide nor too short. 1t does n
horse wonderful amount of good to
rub its legs few minutes after a hard
drive, with wooden CLOTH Give the
horses a few potatoes in their feed oc-
casionally. They are good for horses
and bad for worms. The blanket is for
outside the stable, not in it. If the
horse i'll the stable is SO cold as to need
ii blanket, he should be given a better
stable and not a blanket. When a
horse has free access to salt it seldom
has collie and very rarely is troubled
with bots. Cultivate CHEEKY way of
speaking to your horse. Some horses
that are cross and lazy, because
growled at and punched in the ribs
until sour and discouraged, will prick
forward their ears and follow them i'll
IA hearty, glad manner that is surpris-
ing when they are kindly and encour-
agingly urged. If horse eats his bed
ding use sawdust or fine tan bark.
Don't draw your names too close at the
top; better have them wide SO as not to
pinch the horses neck.

New York, June 22.--The World
will say tomorrow: The Wall-street
quotations of the 1852, 921 ,046 of the
securities of the Northern Pacific have
been seriously affected by the news
that holders of preferred stock contem-
plate a suit to have declared illegal
nearly half the securities OF the road.
The suit is based on clause of the
original charter of the road, granted by
the government in 1864, which forbade
the issue of any but first-mortgage
bonds. The reorganization statement
will come to head quickly now that
j. Pierpont Morgan is here. 1t is likely
that the statement will be accomplish
ed in ten days. j. j. Hill, of the
Great Northern, is here also, awaiting
a conference with Morgan.

legged to be worth from $50, OOO,O0O TO
$500. OOO. 900. The plaintiff represents
himself, Margaret o. Kelly, Michael
Il. Kelly and Annie B. Kelly, all of

The basis of the Kellys' sensational
and enormous claim is rl9htful own
ership of one-siXth interest Ill the
Little Johnny mine, which was Wrested
from them by conspiracy and fraud
ON the part of the defendant persons
and company. 1t is charged that for
the paltry sum of 81 900 they were
fraudulently deprived of property
which at the time of the TRANSACTION
was worth many millions OF dollars,
and which has since steadily increased
in value.
The complaint alleges that Thomas
J. Kelly, a son Of Thomas ID. Kelly,
was one of the original locators and
patentees of the Little Johnny. He
died November &, 1886, and by Colo
RADIO law the plaintiffs are his heirs.
In 1898 they conveyed their interest
in the mine to the defendants, beng,
it is alleged by fraud and colluslon,
kept in ignorance of the value OF the
mine. 1t is further set forth that be-
fore or soon after the death of Thomas
J. Kelly the Little Johnny mine had
become worth SO, 900, 900 to SlO,O0O,-
600, and had become one OF the most
wonderful bonanzas i'll Colorado, and
was paying many millions OF dollars
in gold and silver at the time the
fraudulent deed was secured; that 1t
has become richer and richer since that
time, and is now worth from 500, 900,
600 to 500, 100000 that the Little
Johnny mine is now yielding from
100000 to 100000 i'll cash per
month, all of which is being fraudu-
lently appropriated.

Don't cut off many of the larger
limbs the first year or you may have
blood poison. And if you do cut off
any such, be sure to wax the wounds
over well at the time of cutting But
it is much better to leave the cutting
of the larger limbs until the second
year when the cut will heal over more
promptly. But in any case, keep in

1.-THE aphidians are TO be found on the
under surface of leaves, or in colonies
within q bursa-like expansion of leaf
stem, and sometimes in families snugly
hid away in 8 folding of the border OF the
leaf. If you will devote q little time to
the subject another surprise awaits you.
You will observe a line of ants ascending
these trees. Naturally you arrive at the
conclusion that these ants are seeking the
aphis for the purpose of destroying him.
This is a mistake No dairy was
ever more gentle with her cows than
are these ants in the treatment of
the aphis. The ant visits him to Sc
cure the honey, as it escapes from
from the body of the aphis which he car
ries away in order to feed his young in
his burrow in the vicinity OF the base of
the tree.
This as single instance will serve to
show you the extreme interest attached
to the study of animal life. You will
find that city and country is teeming
with such surprises, and | might call
your attention to many other instances
of equal interest, but must hasten. TO
the young men of the class permit me to
say few words II you have any desire
for self-culture | would earnestly coun-
sci you to avoid cards and billiards. l
say this, not because | consider this class
OF amusements as specially harmful, but
Tor the reason that indulgence in them
will absorb so much of your time. To
become an expert in billiards alone will
require more time and effort than would
be needed in the acquisition of French or
German. To the young ladies' l would
say but few words. Do not lay aside
your books. but employ your leisure in
some useful study. l would suggest bot
any, anything indeed which shall serve
to assist you in increasing your capacity
for usefulness in your future life. And
one word more. before you leave tho
school grounds drop your chewing gum
beside The fence and make a resolve TO
chew no more. The practice is unlady-
like and unwholesome. Finally, my
young friends. have to say that civilized
governments have long since recognized
the fact that a constitutional government
could not be maintained with any degree
OF certainty unless the masses were edu-
Gated, fully realizing the necessities OF the
position our people at an early day
established a system of schools which
were TO be free to all i'll order to prepare
the rising generations to act their part in
the affairs of the Government. Your
School Board, assisted by the taxpayers,
have put forth every effort TO make you
good citizens. Do not disappoint them."

THE WHARlONY MARITAL TROUBLES
Now Being Aired Through Their Dr.
vorce Suit.
Mrs. Wharton is Having Her Inning
at Present, and Tells of Her
Harsh Treatment.

Mrs. Hattie Wharton was the chief
witness yesterday in her divorce case
against H. f. Wharton i'll Judge john
sons court. The lady had quite long
story to tell of her unhappy experience
with the attorney whose name she bears.
There is another woman in the case
who cuts very important figure in it.
She is known as Nellie" and Mrs.
Wharton has named her as oo-respou-
dent.
According TO Mrs. Whsrton's story,
her husband had tried to impress upon
her that they were not legally married,
and that her child was an illigitInate Off
spring. she said her husband is the
owner of three houses worth $4,000, yet
in the six years of her married life ell
she had got from him for clothing footed
up SIG.
In the course of her testimony she
stated, i'll response to question by her
counsel, G. l.. White. that the money
with which her husband had purchased
his Twentieth street property was some
that man named Worsely had furnished
him with which to purchase law books.
She said she had found in her hus-
| bands room photograph OF the woman
Nellie.
w. L. Prince. salesman in Vein
stock, Lubin IL Co.'S. store, testified TO
having sold TO " harlon and the woman
referred to set of furniture, which they
caused to be delivered after dark. Sub
seQuently Wharton spoke to him about
the matter, and the witness told him that
Ii called on he would tell the truth
about it. Wharton suggested that he
might say lie did not remember, and told
him he (Wharton) was a lawyer and
could get the witness into trouble.
MIR. White called Judge Johnson's at
tention to this testimony and to the pro-
visions Of the Penal Code relating to
tampering with witnesses.
Judge johnson replied that he pre-
ferred to hear Wharton's explanation of
the incident before taking cognizance
thereof.
Mrs. Amelia Saunders. who resides in
San Francisco, was permitted to testify
for the defense, out of order, so that she
might return to the metropolis. Her tes-
timony was to the effect that Mrs.
Wharton had once told her that MIR.
Wharton was good prOvider.
Mrs. " harton also testified that some
six weeks ago, after her husband had re-
moved her from their home at 1925 +
street with a couple of coverlids and a
trunk, she returned, on tho advice of her
counsel, and on going up stairs found a
wedding cake and the place newly fur
nished as if for the reception of bride.
She also found bills for the things, show
ing they were charged TO Wharton.
Nharton's side of the case is being
looked after by w. II. Layson. The
case is attracting considerable attention,
owing to the gossip that has prevailed
for some months about Wharton's do
mestic affairs.
