tural department has given out the tol-
lowing report:
The estimates of farm animals for
January, 1895 show decrease in the
numbsr of horses, as compared with
january, 1894, of 1S7,2s1, or LIT per
cent; a decrease in mules of 10, 123, or
o.S1 per cent; an increase In milch
cows of 1879, or 0.10 per cent; de-

In value horses have declined 24.1
per cent, mules gas per cent, mich
cows have increased about per cent,
oxen and other cattle have lost In
value l. per cent, sheep have declined
80 per cent. and swine 1919 per cent.
The decline in the prices Of farm
horses is general throughout the ccun-
try. The exceptions are to be found In
the mountain and Pacific states and
Massachusetts. The range of horses
is from sl6.1 per head in Utah to S74.1 13
in Massachusetts. The average value
of mich cows increased from SPLIT in
1898 to S21.97 for last year
The average value per capita of ami
mails as estimated are as follows:

rr STATEMENT nr TILE CASE.

THE STATEMENT OF THE CASE.
Miss Morstan entered the room with
Il firm step and an outward composure
of manner She was a blonde young
lady, small, dainty, well gloved, and
dressed in the most perfect taste.
There was, however, Il plainess and
simplicity about her costume which
bore with it suggestion of limited
means. The dress was a sombcr gray
ish beige, untrimmed and unbraided,
and she wore a small turban of the
same duh hue, relieved only by sus-
picion of white feather in the side. Her
face had neither regularity of feature
nor beauty of complexion, but her eX-
preston was sweet and amiable, and
her large blue eyes were singularly
spiritual and sympathetic. In an ex-
perience Of women which extends over
many nations and three separate con-
tinents, | have never looked upon a
face which gave clearer promise of
refined and sensitive nature. | could
not but observe that as she took the
seat which Sherlock Holmes placed for
her, her lip trembled, her hand quiv-
cred, and she showed every sign of in
tense inward agitation.
II have come TO you, Mr.. Holmes"
she said, because you once enabled
my employer, Mrs. Cecil Forester, to
unravel little domestic complication.
She was much impressed by your kind
ness and skill"

II Is only half-past three. Au revoir,
then"
''Au revoir,' said our visitor, and.
with bright, kindly glance from one
to the other of Us, she replaced her
pearl box in her bosom and hurried
away. Standing at the window, l
watched her walking briskly down the
street, until the gray turban and white
feather were but specl in the somber
crowd.
"What very attractive woman" |
exclaimed, turning to my companion.
He had lit his pipe again, and was
leaning back with dropping eyelids.

something positively inhuman in you

He smiled gently. 1T is of the first
Importance" he said, mot to allow
your Judgment to be biased by per-
sonal qualities. A client is to me mere
unit-a factor in a problem. The emo
tional qualities are antagonistic to clear
reasoning. assure you that the most
winning woman | ever knew was
hanged for poisoning three little chill
dreu for their insurance money, and
the most repellent man of my acquaint-
ance is n philanthropist who has spent
nearly quarter of a million upon the
London poor"
In this case, however,"
Il never make exceptions. An ex-
ception disproves the rule. Have you
ever had occasion to study character in
handwriting? What do you make of
this fellows scribble?"
''It is legible and regular" I an
swered. "A man of business habits and
some force of character"
Holmes shook his head Look at
his long letters he said They hard
ly rise above the common herd That
d might be an a, and that an e. Men
of character always differentiate their
long letters, however illegibly they may
write. There is vacillation in his ks
and self-esteem in his capitals. | am

''But it was not mere guess work?"
"No. no; | never guess. 1t is shock
ing habit-destructive to the logical
faculty. What seems strange to you is
only so because you do not follow my
train of thought or observe the small
facts upon which large differences may
depend. For example, / began by stat
ing that vour brother was careless.
When YOU observe the lower part of
that watch case you notice that it is not
only dinted in txo places, but it is cut
and marked all over from the habit of
keeping other hard objects, such as
coins or keys, in the same pocket.
Surely it is no great feat to assume that
man who treats ffty-guinea watch
so cavalierly must be careless man.
Neither is it very far-fetched infer
ence that man who inherits one ar
ticle of such value is pretty well pro-
vided for in other respects. "
| nodded to show that | followed his
reasoning.
'It is very customary for pawn
brokers in England, when they take
watch, to scratch the number of the
ticket with a pin point upon the inside
of the case. 1t is more handy than the
label, as there is no risk of the number
being lost or transposed. There are no
less than four such numbers visible to
my lens on the inside of this case. In

where the key has slipped. What sober
mans key could have scored those

drunkard's watch without them. He
winds it at night, and he leaves these
traces of his unsteady hand. Where is
the mystery in all this?"
1T is clear as daylight" l answered.

For some little time his eyes rested
thoughtfully upon the sinewy fore

Finally he thrust the sharp point

and sank back into the velvet-ined
armchair with long sigh of satisfac-

custom had not reconciled my mind to

nonchalant air of my companion which
made him the last man with whom one
would care to take anything approach
ing to liberty. His great powers, his
mastery manner, and the experience
which had had of his many eXtraor-
binary qualities, all made me di1ident
and backward in crossing him.

DAIRY BARN CARRIER.
