I was struck with sundry differences

In counties where they were no fences

the field cleaner Of grass than In counties
where there were fences. Cows Of good
breed could be seen tethered where grass
was plenty, and work animals looked in

These are some Of the benefits TO the
farmers under a no fence order. If there

A Husband Seeks His Wife After
Twenty-Five Years Absence.
Waycross, Ca, July IA letter was re-
ceived this week by lady of this county
from her first husband, who is in France,
and a romantic story is connected with it.
Twenty-Five years since, young
Frenchman, who lived here. was called to
France on business, and he babe his
young wife good bye, and nothing was
heard of him until now.
Soon after his departure, his wife hay
ing inquired diligently as to his fate de-
eided that he had died, and she married
again.
In few years she was left a widow,
and some time ago she was happily mar
ried for the third time.
Her first husband explains the cause of
his absence and excuses his silence sat
isfactorily, and he now asks if she is stu
living, and If so, win she become reunited

very wealthy and the sequel of the ro-
nance will be very interesting.

quent and powerful congressman, United
States senator and president of the
worlds greatest republic, but at this
point he will quite naturally desire his
tory to cease repeating itself. Young
Garfield enters politics in much the
same manner that his father did, but
there is very marked difference in
their financial conditions at the age Of
28 years. James A. Garfield had fought
hard fight with poverty from earliest
boyhood and was still poor. James r.
Garfield is rich, and his wife is heir to
a cool million.
In many ways young Jim Garfield, as
his friends call him, is said to be a chip
of the old block, but he is particularly
DESTROYS to win his battles strictly on
his own merits and is very reluctant to
trade on the great fame of his sire. 1t
is his ambition to gain legislative expe-
rience in the Ohio senate and then take
his fathers old place in congress from
the old Nineteenth district that pro-
duced such men as Giddings, Wade and
James A. Garfield. He is a graduate of
the Columbia Law school and has been
admitted to practice before the supreme
court of Ohio. When he was nominated
recently, the principal objection made to
him was his very youthful appearance
the very same objection that his father
met and overcame in similar senate
rial contest 80 years ago.

number Of citizens are equipped with
the strangest burial appliance Of the dec

given by the agent is as follows:
Primarily tho coffin is fire and bur

bark and leather, which forms an en-
amol that cannot be penetrated by chisel
or drill. IL is put together with angle
iron and flush rivots. The locks are all
on the inside. so constructed with hooks

outside the bolts spring down and lock
automatically, and the coffin is then
locked so that IL cannot be opened from
tho outside. The only person who can
unlock and open the strange coffin is the
person inside. "

for vaults and those to DO Inferred in
graves. The coffin to be placed In a
vault is equipped with torpodoes that
can be exploded from the inside. The
theory OF this is that in case a person is
buried alive he can throw back the
bolts, explode the torpedOes and warn
the sexton and thus escape The coffin
to be placed in grave has attached q

son inside finds that he wishes to get

death, or, failing to do this. the manu-

covered that the president Of the trial

DIR. Zeballos at once declared that in
his capacity as minister to the United

could not accept any accommodations on
the ship which were not equal to those
assigned to any other person, and he
made a request for better room. It
was impossible for Captain Sargent to
find such accommodation or to turn Mr..
Cummings or any other official out of the
quarters TO which he had been assigned.
Dr. Zeballos declared that, under these
circumstances, no could not accompany
the ship on tho trip and would leave

Dr. Clark was pastor of Williston
