Ex-Speaker Reeds New Cane.

Everybody who knows Mr.. Reed at
all knows his adherence of loud or
f1ashy dress. he dislikes jewelry. His
scarfpin, when he wears one, is of the
most modest kind. No rings sparkle OH
his fingers, and nothing could be more
unobtrusive than his watch chain.
Well. the other day, when MI. Reed
was in Providence, he was presented
with q zane. 1t was an III affair,
with a head as big as a football and
with a great amount of gold carv-
ing and elaborate fligree work. MI.
Reed gasped as he clutched the cane,
but he carried it bravely until he settled
himself down in a railway car. Then
he took a newspaper and quietly wrap.

sent the entire outfit into retirement

will be because there is a moving day

Manhood.

Not till life's heat has cooled,
headlong rush slowed to a quiet pace
And every purblind passion that had ruled
Our noisier years at last
Spurs us in vain, and, weary of the race,
We care no more who loses or who wins
Ah, not till all the best of life seems past
The best of life begins.
To toll for only fame,
Hand clippings and the tickle gusts of praise,
For place or power or gold to gild a name
Above the grave whereto
All paths will bring us, We're to lose our days,
We on whose ears youths passing bell has
tolled,
In blowing bubbles, even as children do,
Forgetting we grow old.
But the world widens when
Such hope of trivial gain that ruled us lies
Broken among our childhood toys, for then
We win to self control
And mail ourselves in manhood, and there rise
Upon us from the vast and MINDLESS height
Those clearer thoughts that are unto the soul
What stars are to the night.
"A. St. John Adcock.

Feeding COttonseed Meal.

This substance is obtained from cot
ton seed after the cotton oil has been
squeezed from it. 1t is a very concen-
trated food, constituting in it's effects
and liable to derange the system when
fed too heavily to cattle that are unused
to it. AT the south cattle eat large guam
titles of the whole seed with little ap-
parent i'll effect. For our WI feeding
we would never feed over 21a pounds
per day to any animal and unless
ensilage, pasture or some other succu-
lent food could be fed with it. Fed in
this way it is valuable food, but when
fed injudiciously it is n of the most
dangerous foods we have. Its effect
upon the butter is to make it too hard,
but this may be overcome by feeding
linseed meal with it. Never feed it to
horses or hogs. Rural New Yorker.

The Past Is Ours.

If cruel hands attempt to blight
The fruit we hoped the years would bring,
They never can destroy outright
The sweets that round the blossoms cling.
So, though they may our way pursue
And seek our highest hopes to blast,
One thing they have not power to do,
They cannot rob us of the past.

lowing an animal to be at rest four
months of the year and working the
other eight, the average cost per month
would be not far from 81.
The six university farm horses, weigh
ing on an average l, $50 pounds, during
the winter draw upward Of G, 1000 tons
of coal and do the heavy farm and other
work during the summer. They work
about 900 days each year, often in the
snow and rain. They are now making
even trips of two miles each per day,
and each load exceeds two tons net. Each
animal receives on all average II pounds
of corn and oats and II to 10 pounds Of
timothy hay, which frequently contains
a little clover. Four Of these horses are
yet somewhat immature, yet all are fat,
sleek and vigorous on this feed, as
might be expected from the slightly
more liberal diet that has been recon-
mended above.

full, especially if straw or timothy hay
were fed. At the same price 1 would
take bran in preference to middlings..
1t will be found good economy to feed q
mixed grain ration, say one-half bran,
the other half corn or oats. Good,
bright corn fodder is the best of all rough
feed in winter for idle farm horses, but
it is not all economical feed to buy.
With timothy hay at $12 per ton, l
would buy good, bright clover hay at
IS, or even a little more if the horses
were idle or if their work were slow
work. They will eat more of it, but they
will require much less grain than if fed
timothy, and have less collie. Where
good, bright wheat or oat straw is
abundant. as here, idle horses may be
wintered we'll and cheaply on it and
bran. The straw causes constipation,
but if bran be used as a grain ration it
will correct that. I have tried oilmeal
as a ration, but value it only as a tonic.
The greatest economy is in perfect
health. All food will then be assimi.
lated.
I would pay $40 per ton for bran to
feed work horses in winter to balance
corn and timothy hay. But why feed
much $12 hay? Wheat or oat straw can
generally be purchasd for So to S. per
ton. This can be fed in connection with
wheat bran, and horses will really do
better than when fed on timothy hay
and corn. I would not bother to weigh
the straw fed. Give what they want OF
it and measure the grain ration. For
horses at hard work give for a days
ration seven pounds of ear corn Or coarse
cornmeal, seven pounds of wheat bran,
two pounds of linseed meal. That may
be pretty c~arbonaceous for a balanced
ration. Yet in our country horses do
most of their work OH pure corn and get
in a corn habit, as it were.

A number of the inmates are
working-some in the taro lands,
some in the kitchen, and others
around the buildings and grounds,
but many and the majority spend
day after day in the same place,
and many in the same position
waiting solely for their meals and
night to come round again. They
see little beyond their white fence
enclosure, inside of which most of
them are doomed to spend the rest
of their unfortunate existence; and
how surely it is our duty to make
these grounds as bright and cheer
full as we can. 1t is, in fact, the
first detail in the treatment of
these people to have them content
ed and pleased with their place of
detention, particularly in acute
phases of the disease, when it will
in itself be conducive to the return
of health and reason.
To do this, to keep the grounds
in good order, to build some extra
cells in the place of those behind
Ward 3, and to provide extra at
tendants for the new accommoda-
tions, will necessitate extra pro-
vision being made by the Board,
who, 1 trust, will exert liberality
in the matter.
The report was accepted and the
Superintendent of Public Works
ordered to examine premises and
report on the cost of proposed i'm
provements, etc.
The President of the Board
stated that in response to invita-
tations heretofore issued that a
number of physicians from the
other islands would be on hand
next week and accompany the
board to Molokai.
The next meeting of the board
will be held in the room now occu-
pied by the Labor Commission, the
present quarters being too small.
After transacting the usual rou-
tine business the board adjourned
until next Thursday.

BOARD OF HEALTH.
Held a Long and Interesting
Meeting Yesterday.

The first business before the
Board of Health at its regular meet
ing yesterday was the application
of Chinaman for license to
smoke opium. This was denied but
the opium will be smoked all the
same.
Next came Deputy Marshal
Brown who requested the Board to
take some action in the matter of
japanese prostitutes and suggested
they should be confined to a GER
tain part of the city where the po-
lice could watch them. After a
general discussion on the matter
the Board decided to leave the mat
ter into the hands of the Marshal
for the present.

interest, is published in full:

disease may be classified as follows:
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1895-05-16

Most of those committed have
been some years resident in the
islands.
The utmost care is taken to keep
the wards and cells scrupulously
clean, which is a much more diff
cult proceeding than might appear
to any one not familiar with the
ways and whims of these poor af.
flicted. The keepers have watches
of eight hours at time, and each
new watch sees that the keepers be-
fore them have left their wards
clean and in good order.
Good filters have been supplied
and an effort made to prevent the
inmates from drinking other than
filtered water. Their meals, which
are excellent, are served at the lol-
lowing times and consist of:
Breakfast, $50 a. m. Boiled
beef, rice, taro, stew, tea and bread,
salmon three times a week for q
change.
Dinner, 11:15 a. M. Boiled,
roast or stewed beef or mutton, rice
and taro, with pork and beans on
Sundays.
Supper, 4:45 p. m. Fruit, one
quarter loaf of bread, cold meat,
salmon, stew or meat balls.
All inmates who are accustomed
to their food served more delicately,
and can appreciate it, have their
meals furnished from the Assistant
Superintendent's house.
1t is with great pleasure we watch
the progress of the new Woman's
Department, so sorely needed, and
as soon as it is completed we shall
have to tear down the cells (eight
in number) constituting the wing
in rear of Ward 3, and rebuild
them. The woodwork is all rotten
and sodden, making it positively
dangerous to the health of those
confined therein. We only use
them now in case of actual neces,
sity.

Wanted by Pennsylvania Democrats, So Say They in State Convention Cleyeland'S
 Administration lndorsed.

Williamsport, Pa, Sept. 1.-The state democratic convention was called to or der at II 10 o'clock by Chairman E. w. Wright.
 Ex-State Chairman James Strenahan was selected as temporary chairman. The usual committees were announced, and the convention took a recess.
 When the convention reassembled John M. Garmon, ex-dstrict attorney of Lu- zerne county, was made permanent chair man, and the other officers of the conven- tion were made permanent.
 The platform renews its allegiance to and declares it's faith in the principles of democracy as formulated by Jefferson and illustrated by Cleveland. It con graduates the American people upon the first fruits of the democratic administra- tion which inherited from its republi- can predecessors a bankrupt treasury and unwise financial legislation, i'm paired public credit and widespread dis aster and which, under the sagacious, courageous and patriotic leadership of it's great president, Grover Cleveland, led the people out of the slough of de- spondency to the high ground of sub Stantial and increasing prosperity.
 AS vindicating the principles of tariff reform, to which the democracy Is un- alterably pledged, we challenge especial attention to the fact that such prosperity and the consequent increase of wages has been most pronounced ip the indus tries whose existence our opponents dGtIes. t
 We invite the attention of the wage earners to the fact that the present vol untary increase of wages of those em- ployed In the manufacturing industries, amounting to not less than $250, ,000, 900, was absolutely unknown under the Me Kinely tariff act.
 We especially Teaffirm so much of the platform of the last democratic national convention as calls for the use of both gold and silver as the standard money of the country, but the dollar unit Of coinage of both metals must be of equal intrinsic and exchangeable value, or be adjusted by international agreement or by such safeguards of legislation as shall insure the maintenance of the parity of the two metals and the equal power of dollars at all times in the payment of debts.
 "We believe that such parity could not be maintained by the free coinage of silver at the ratio of Is to 1, and we are therefore opposed to any legislation looking to that end"
 The resolutions also arraign the re- publican state administration for actions not in accord with public welfare, and especially for legislation favoring cor porations and monopolies
 The following ticket was named:

a remark, The defehse's most vigorous fight on her testimony was to keep out evidence as to Blanches weight. That Durant's counsel VIII make the improba- bilty that. he was physically able 10 carry Blanche's body to the spot where it was found is one of its main lines of defense is now certain. In consonance with this they fought today to keep out all evidnece that wold show her to have been lighter weight than 140 pounds Maud Lamont testified that last Septem, Der her sister weighed i15 pounds, anu had since gained about seven pounus. This testimony was expurged from the testimony as incompetent
 witness will be produced by the pros ecution who weighed Blanche, ana VIII testify that her weight was less than 120 pounds.
 Maud Lamont identified the chip dia- mond ring offered for sale by man supposed to be Durant few days atter the murder She said it was given her Christmas three years. and that she nau given it to Blanche last year. Blanche had worn it up to the time of her dls- appearance.
 Durant's chirography will be a ma terial factor in thecase. The prosecution will seek to show by expert testimony that its characteristics are to be found in the address and names written on the paper in which the murdered girls rings were enclosed when they were sent Dack to her aunt ten days after the murder
 The prosecution will tomorrow begin its work of tracing Durant on the day or the murder
