SIX BURGLARIES Since SATURDAY.
Biggest Haul Made at Eckhardt's
Gun Store.
Fires Probably Started to Aid the
Burglars in Carrying Oh
Their Work.

1t looks very much az if the fire that
was started in Cook 81 Co.'s store at Tenth
and X streets on Tuesday night, and that
which destroyed Schaumberger's brew
cry at Twenty-third and o streets on the
following night, were the work of the
gang that are now committing burglaries
here.
Whenever fire alarm is sounded the
few policemen on duty go to the scene
for the purpose of protecting property,
and this gives burglars an opportunity TO
operate in other parts of the city. This
practice OF taking officers from their beats
at such times is dangerous. 1t would
seem that the insurance agents should look
after the protection of property at fires by
maintaining fire patrol, as is done in
other cities.
On Tuesday night-presumably while
the Cook fire was in progress, Breuner's
furniture store and Baker 81 Hamilton's
hardware store were burglarzed.
on Wednesday night, while attentio II
was drawn 10 the brewery fire. two more
burglaries were committed. The gun
store OF William II. Eckhardt at 523 X
street was entered, and robbed of about
$500 worth of fine pistols The burglars
got into the store by tearing away a sheet
iron shutter from rear window, and
breaking in the sash and glass.
They were very discriminating fell
lows and helped themselves to the best
there was in the store. They took twen-
ty-Lwo Colt. eight Smith d Wesson and
five Mervin Il Hubbard pistols, all of the
latest models and highest grade. They
also took plenty of ammunition for the
weapons.
man sleeping in the rear Of an ad-
joining saloon, and within a few feet of
the window that was smashed in, de-
ciares he did not hear the burglars. He
certainly cannot be afflicted with in
somnia.
The burglars also broke into the store
of Schaw, ingram & hatcher at 2l7- PIG J
street, by springing the heavy iron doors
in the rear. They were evidently in
search of money only, for they did not, so
far as is known, steal any tools or imple-
ments.
They did, however, try their hands on
one OF the cash drawers, which they
broke open and secured about eighty
, cents. The burglars first broke into the
warehouse adjoining the store before
they discovered their mistake.
This makes six burgIaries of business
houses on the main streets this week, and
the crooks have managed to elude the
vigilance of public and private watch
men while engaged in their operations.

Two BOYS RECEIVE BAD INJURIES.

Fred. SchreIer's Boy Hurt In a Runa-
way, and DR.. McKee's Son
Had Bad Fall.

Two boys-one in this city and the
other at Elk Grove-had narrow escapes
yesterday from being killed.
The little son of Fred. Schreier, the ar
tifcial stone contractor, who lives at l7l7
Twenty-third street, was driving horse
aud wagon in the vicinity of his homo
when the horse ran away with him and
brought up in a shed where there was
cow.
The boy was thrown from the vehicle
and became entagled in the lines, falling
between and then under the wheels. He
was terribly injured about the head and
face and his body bruised all over His
worst injury is on the back of the head.
He WAS taken TO his home, near the Sis
ters' hospital, and his injuries promptly
attended to.
Last night the little sufferer was rest
ing easily, and the attending physician
was hopeful OF his recovery.
THE ELK GROVE ACCIDENT.
While some men were at work yester-
day repairing the tank of the Elk Grove
water works DR.. McKee's I0-year-old son
Charlie, just returned from school.
climbed up to the tank, which is eighty
feet above the ground, and then fell over
and into it.
The tank is sixteen feet deep, and the
wonder is that the boy was not killed.
The men working IN the tank picked him
up and ne was taken to his home, where
DR.. Mckee found that his injuries, though
severe and painful. are not likely to prove
fatal.
The boy's left thigh has compound
fracture, his left arm is badly injured, his
chin has severe cut i'll il, and he is
otherwise bruised.
Had the accident occurred after the men
had left the tank, the little fellow might
have died there before anyone had found
him.

FOOD OF GROWING STOCK.

When it is desired to force young animals
character suitable for that purpose. Bone
and muscle are OF more Importance than
fat. The animal intended for market
fattens more readily as it approaches matll-
rity, but some young animals will not
tattcn at all, as the food c0nduces more to
growth than to fat. Ii the food is not
adapted for promoting growth in the young
animal, though growing, will not gain as
rapidly as when the food is more appro.
pirate, 1t is the mineral matter in foods
lime, phosphorc acid, etc J, that creates
bone, and the protein. or heterogeneous ele-
ment, which produces the muscles, calti-
lagos hides, etc. The carbonaceous matter,
producing fat, is only necessary for a young
animal in warming tie body. Animals
gain more rapidly when very young than
during any other period and they require
food of a varied character. To dcprive them
of some needed substance may put check
on their growth from which they NAV
never fully recover. Warmth in winter is
important also, and with the sucking
animal this is provided by the fat in the
milk, but which the farmer converts into
butter when the calf is taken from the COW.
FEEDING GRAIN EXCLUSIVELY.
Corn and wheat, so largely used as staple
foods on the farm are unsuitable for grow
ing stock. The reason is that there is but
about one pound of lime in 1000 pounds of
corn or wheat, which is insufficient for the
purposes of the young animal, as bone can
which it is composed are present in the
food. On the contrary red clover hay
contains about % pounds of lime in 1000
pounds, but the lime does not always exist
in foods in the form of phosphates, trans
formations occurring after the food is
digested. Wheat bran, which has been
removed from the starch of the wheat grain,
as is well known to those who understand
how it is separated during the process of
making flour, contains about seven times
as much phosphate of lime as does corn.
There are great many foods which largely
excel corn, wheat or oats in their relative
proportion of mineral matter. Protein is
more easily obtainable than the mineral
elements where an exclusive grain diet is
practiced. 1t is a deficiency of mineral
matter that causes some young animals to
make slow growth. One of the advantages
of limestone soils is that animals fed on
the product of such soils are largely bene-
fitted and the young stock thrive.
VARIETY PROMOTES ECONOMY.
To feed on one kind of food mostly is not
economy because the animal fails to derive
proper nourishment therefrom and more
especially with growing stock, which make
gains which proportionately far exceed that

VALUABLE WOODS.

Many of the finest woods in existence are
yet unknown or only slightly known to
the manufactures OF wood in the civilized
world. The woods of Central and South
America are perhaps the most remarkable
as well as the best X Nwn. In the vet I'M
touched forests OF mis- continent are many
woods far finer than any of those now in
use These woods range from pure white
to jet black in color, and many of them
are most beautifully marked and veined.
Some OF them are SO hard that they turn
the edges OF axes, chisels and other tools,
when the band saw cuts them only slowly.
In the Columbian exposition there were
many displays Of little known woods, and
the finest Of them We're those from Argen-
tine Republic, Brazil and other South
American countries. Some of these southern
woods yielded to the band saw not the
ordinary sawdust, but fine powder, fine as
the finest flour, so hard were the woods.
Some OF them burned but slowly. Others
possess qualities that keep them free from
insects. Some OF them seem to be practi-
cally ndestructible by all and water
All along the eastern slopes of the Andes
up to the snow line on those great elevat-
ions, throughout all the great river valleys
and in some of the wide areas of level
county in South America are great forests
of fine woods that are specially fit for the
finest cabinet and furniture work, and also
for shipbuilding, carpentry and other in
dustrial arts in which wood is the raw
material. These great forests are now an
unknown quantity in the commercial world
but they will come rapidly into the know
ledge Of men and into industrial use when
once the railroad has reached them.
Before many years, it is safe to predict,
the South American and Central American
republics will be threaded by railroads,
and then those wonderful woods will he

and fine woods in all civilized Countries

and prosecuted, but political enemies of
the man were among the directors of the

take its course. The culprit was arrested,
tried and convicted and sentenced to be
publicly whipped. The sentences would
have been carried out but for the fact that
