"Uncle Matthew" chamberlain, the
man who won a reputation for him
self by capturing live rattlesDakes in
the hills aud mountains Of Stokes
county, and who is weil-knOwn to
nearly every pleasure seeker who has
visited Piedmont Springs, died near
his home, near Danbury, on the 4th
inst. The Reporter says that death
visited him while he was being con-
yeyed to the county home for the aged
and inflrm. After getting into the
wagon and riding two or three hun
dred yards he asked the driver to stop
for some purpose; the driver told him
that was pad place; the sun shone
very warm; that when he got to a
shade he would stop. Driving on to
the foot of the hill, another hundred
yards or two, he stopped and looked
around to find Matt dead in the
wagon. Matt had been in bad health
for some time. One thing he COM
planned of was suffering from the
effects of wound received during the
war. 1t is said that the deceased was
a good soldier. He has been for some
years drawing State pension as an
ex-Confederate soldier. He was about
&c years old.

A Chicken Hatched by a Partridge.

Mr.. r.. b. Heath, of Cove, tells the
Ncwberne Journal of curious occur
renee that came under his obServa-
tion. -Four weeks ago while walking
in newly cleared land near his home,
he came across d newly Matched
chicken, without knowing at first
how to account for it. lnveSti-
eating, a partridge nest was discover
ed close by, with the shells Of a nest
full OF partridge eggs and one hen egg.
The old hen had laid in the nest of
the partridge and the bird had hatch
ed the egg with her own.
Young partridges are strong, lively
and of rambling disposition from
the first, and the brood had doubtless
strayed off and left the more helpless
chicken to get along as it could. Mr..
Heath took the chicken in charge. 1t
is now four weeks old and thriving
nicely,

Be Released from Their Operation.
]. W. Gleed has returned from St
Louis where he participated in the argu-
ment for looping off of the branch lines
Of the st. Louis & San Francisco in Kan
sas. The lines which the United

cut off from operation by the main
line are: the Midland branch, extending
from Wichita to Ellsworth; the Beau
mont branch, extending from Beaumont
to Arkansas City, and the Anthony
branch extending from Anthony to
Arkansas City.
This is question in which a number of
Kansas towns are very much interested as
many of them voted bonds to assist in bull

idea of having them dropped by the
main line.
The arguments were made by prom
inent lawyers.

court to be ratified

he takes keen interest in the affairs of

his reasons for retiring from the navy,
Mr.. Sabin said: There was q ring of
patriotism and an air OF independence in
Admiral Meade's utterances that found
an echo in every loyal mans mind. 1t
may be it was a lack of discipline,
but he had grave cause. and
think Meade was about right I,see
that President Cleveland and Secretary

step Let them go ahead and they
will see how much this country honors

THE FASHION PLATE.

There is a great fancy for short jacket
waists, some with double breasted fronts
and all having revers.
The sale of plain and fancy velvets
for capes and dress accessories this sea-
son has been exceptionally large.
Flowered stripes on taffeta grounds
either plain or changeabie are one of
the favorite combinations in silk.
A favorite ornament on spring hats
is the jetted Mephisto plume, which IS
of good height, with tips curled off from
each other at the top.
For elegant dress garnitures are shown
expensive passementeries, buckles and
buttons made to match, the buttons, in
varying sizes, to be used on different
portions of the costume.
Broad effects continue to rage for all
sorts of waists. many being i'll collarette
fashion, falling from a folded and ro-
settle stock collar of velvet. The cream
satin fonr-in- hand tie promises to rival
the simpler black one so long the IA
vorite.
Many of the shirt waists of washable
cottons are made precisely like those SO
universally worn last summer, simply
gathered at the throat and again at the
belt, 10th front and back. The fronts
this season droop slightly over the belt
in the prevailing blouse fashion. New

WESTERN KANSAS WELLS.
The Geological Survey Discovers that
Water is Easily Found.

The Geological Survey Discovers that
Water is Easily Found.
WASHINGTON. May 14-The work of
examining and mapping the water
sources of the United States with spe-
cial reference to the artesian wells of
the western states is being. carried on
steadily under charge of F. II. Newell,
of the geological survey. Mr. Newell is
now preparing a summary of the more
recent work which will soon be ready
for publication.
California stands at the head of the
artesian we'll states, having about half of
all those in the country inside the bor-
ders Utah and Colorado come next,
followed at long distance by Texas and
other states.
1t has been ascertained in many
places, however, that the stream
of water secured from the wells is
too small to irrigate a very large
area In the hotter parts of the.
country the thirsty soil drinks up the
water before it gets more than 100
feet from the we'll, and it can only be
carried further by means of wooden gut
tiers, or by accommodating it in reservoir,
until enough is secured to produce
stream that can travel for some distance
before drying up.
An additional advantage of a reservoir
is LuaG Llf0 water Is allowed To get warm
before being put on the vegetation. Ar
tesian well water is usually cold and
sometimes Injuries crops if admitted.
The most Interesting district lies in
eastern Colorado and western Kansas
Here the ground slopes from the west
down to the east and there are continual
faults in the strata preventing the water
from travelling for any great distance
Where the strata are not faulted, they
are undulating and we'll sunk near the
center part of the fluctuations usually
! taps water that has flowed there
| from each side of the undulation.
Few of these wells flow,
but they can be worked by windmills, a
motive power that is seldom exhausted
in that part of the country. These wells
are small and will irrigate only few
acres at the best. -
Mi. Newell thinks that if the farmers
there would try to cultivate only as much
land around their houses as they could
irrigate by means of their wells, and de-
vote the remainder of their farms to
grazing, or perhaps wheat occasionally,
they would be far better off than now

WASHINGTON, May 14.-Miss Abigail
Dodge Gail Hamilton). cousin of Mrs.
James G. Blaine, who was said to have
suffered a slight stroke of paralysis, is
now much better. The attending physi-
clan is DR.. w. W. Johnston, who just
now has a number of distinguished
patients, including Congressman Hit
and Secretary Gresham.
It is said that the first report current
as to her illness is inaccurate, so far as
the nature of her disease goes, and that
the ailment is not to be described as
paralysis. She came from the north
here last week and has fallen victim,
lit is said, to the intense heat She had a
lfainting spell and is a very sick woman,
but the physicians expect her recovery.

Stop that Cough!

It may lead to serious conse-
quences. Cough remedies will
not do it, because it means more
than a simple cold. SCOTS
Emulsion of Cod-1iver Oil with
Hypophosphites will do it; and
at the same time will build up
and fortify the system against
further attacks.
We are putting up a 5o-cent
size for just these local diff
cu1ties. For ordinary Coughs
and Colds that quantity will
doubtless cure. If it is deep
seated it may require more.
