How Pingree,s Plan Works.

Detroit, Mich, Nov. 16.-Crops to the
value of $17,997.3O, present market
prices, were harvested this year by
Mayor Pingree's city farmers. The crop
yield was as follows: Potatoes, 81, $40
bushels; beans, 1000; turnips, 5000;
beets, 1000; corn, 400; cabbages, 4,66s
head; squashes, 400; pumpkins, 500.
Five thousand dollars were supplied by
the city for the scheme, being spent in
preparing the land and buying seed.
The allotments were 1,546 this year,
against GAS last year. The acreage was
455 this year, against 40 last year. The
crops are shown to be four times as
great as those of last year, with only
one-ninth more land under cultivation.

Murder and Suicide.

Laredo, Tex, Nov. IA diabolical
murder of mother and child, it is be-
ieved for the purpose of robbery, was
revealed Wednesday, followed by the
self-destruction of the fiend, when he
realized that his crimes had been dis
covered and lynching awaited him in all
probability. 1t is believed the muir
dered woman was Mrs. Caroline Mem,
of Dallas, Tex. Her child was a girl of
about ten years. The murderer is sup
posed to be William or Sam Kuntz, of
Kansas City. Kuntz stated while here
that he had been master mechanic for
q railroad, and letters were found in
his trunk addressed to William Kuntz,
157 Grand avenue, Kansas City.

How the II. G. Dun q Co. Agency

"The scare about gold exports had no
real significance. and, although $2.250000
more will go out, the stock market has
been recovering. The collapse Of Kaffir
speculations abroad has forced many to
realize on Americans held and the impress
sion that our government may have to bor-
row again also operates to our disadvan-
tage. But there Is no local disturbance of
money markets. stocks are 80 cents per
share stronger than a week ago, CONNER
cfal loans are not large and the demand for
moving crops has been remarkably small
so that on the whole the money market has
shown very unusual strength and steadi-
ness for the fall season.

has caused, as usual, rather more uncer-
tainty as to its Interpretation than pre-

If of value, would indicate a crop of over
100000 bales, but organization to hold back
the crop renders the comparison of less
use. The bottom fact is that even a smaller
crop than anybody expects, with the 3000,-
700 bales carried over, will assuredly pre-
vent any famine in cotton Meanwhile the
exports decrease S6 per cent. in quantity.

The purpose, as quantity expressed in

may be diffused and that men of ability
may be raised up to fill the various pro-
fessions." There are three kinds of
schools-government public (under the
care of the magistracy or prefectures)

He Talks About the Treatment OF Old
Sores and Ulcers.
The slowness which characterizes the
healing Of ulcers has sometimes led TO the
belief that they are inourable. Another
popular notion is that their cure Is detri-
mental to the health Of the patient. With
equal propriety we might say that 1t 10
dangerous to cure diarrhDa, dysentery,
consumption or cancer. These erroneous
impressions cause many people to suffer
for years and even a lifetime without re-
lief. A few words as to the causes, results
and treatment of these painful ailments
will not be wanting In interest to news
paper readers.
The various species of ulcers are merely
notifications Of one form Of chronic sores.
The sufferer may assert that he enjoys ex-
cellent health, but, II questioned closely,
1t will DO found that the sore initiates him
and that there IL sufficient constitutional
disturbance 10 prevent the healing powers
OF nature from asserting itself and effect
ing a cure. The cure of these ulcers is
therefore necessarily slow. and any one
expecting to obtain immediate relief will
be disappointed. Constitutional treatment
Is OF the utmost Importance.

irritated. In this case take two teaspoon
fuls Of compound licorice powder in a half
glass of warm water at bed time. II the
patient suffers from nervousness, use bro
mide Of soda every three hours in doses Of
forty grains until relieved. The patient
should also see that the blood is purified,
and digestive organs In good condition.
Elixir Of iactopeptine, with iron, quinine
and strychnine. will be found excellent to
tone up the system.
For local application nothing Is superior
to Quratol. 1t Is soothing, 1t destroys pu-
trefaction Of the flesh and restores the it's
sues to a healthy condition. A lotion Of
one part of Quratol to six parts of water
should be applied on bandages of absorbent
gauze or cotton. The sore should be COW
cred so as to effectually exclude the light
and air, and the bandages kept wet with
the lotion. Scabs and hardened dead flesh
should be removed. that the healing may
be gradual and from the bottom TO insure
perpanency. This preparation can be
found at all drug stores and general stores
In this section, and Is sold at so cents a

This recent invention is dependent for
its action upon the principle of the force
of attraction and repulsion as caused by
magnetism. A brass tube, 5 feet long,
2 - inches in diameter and inch bore,
was wrapped with insulated wire along
its entire length, the current flowing
through different sections of the wind
ings in such a manner as to cause the
bullets to become temporary magnets,
which were attracted by the magnetic
lines of force ahead of them and repealed
by those behind them, thus giving the
projectiles an increasing impetus as they
pass along the gun. The bullets are
thrown forward in much the same man
ner as the armature of an electric motor
is turned ON its axis The cannon is
light, inexpensive, and its capacity for
throwing projectiles depends on the ra-
pidity of loading the same. 1t is esti-
mated that a five foot gun, requiring
500 volts and 100 amperes, will throw q
one pound ball / 900 feet, with strik-
ing velocity of 100 pounds. Boston

/ have seen a baby placed by its mother
Systematically under the elephants care
and within reach of its trunk, while the
mother went to fetch water or to get
wood or material TO cook the family
dinner. No jackal or wolf would be
likely to pick UP and carry off baby
who was thus confided to the care of an
elephant, but most people who have lived
a life in the jungle know how very pos
sible it is for jackal or wolf to carry
off baby when lying in hut when the
mothers back is turned.
The children thus brought up in the
companionship of an elephant become
familiar with him and take all kinds Of
liberties with him, which the elephant
seems to endure on the principle that it
does not hurt him, while it amuses the
child, You see little naked black child

the water to battle, shouting all the time
in the most unbecoming terms Of native

ostensibly in obedience to the child's

Altered Records.

A story published in the Denver Post,
o: Monday, and OF which more may be
heard anon, is to the effect that the rec
ords in two cases appealed from the dis
trict court in Otero County to tho Court
of Appeals, had deen tampered with in
their transmission from the lower court
to the higher. The cases are: The
Board OF County Commissioners, appel
lants, versus the First National Bank of
In Junta, appellee, on a note decided
court; and the case of Wainsco.t versus
Shelton, slander suit. Interpretations
taking exception to tho judgement of the
court, it is said, were discovered in both
records, in ono place the. change being
effected by pasting over. Tho altera-
tions were discovered Monday when tho
cases came up before Judge Reed, lie said
that, at the Courts earliest convenience,
the matter would be thoroughly investi-
gated. While the changing of the rec
ord, most serious offence, is attributed
generally to Otero county attorneys, yet
as nothing definite is known, beyond the
Post account, no names are mentioned in
connection with tho transaction. Dis
barment is the penalty commonly inhict-

affidavit that when the records left his
hands, they were all right Times.
