Give the Best Feed at Night.

All through winter especially, the
heaviest feed of every kind of farm
stock should be at night. Enough
should be given q; each meal, but in
the evening it may be of richer quail
ty and more tempting to the appetite,
says the American Cultivator This
is needed in cold weather to keep the
animal warm, as the process Of diges-
ton is slow combustion of food, which
furnishes heat for the body while it
provides nourishment for the blood.
As the process of digestion goes on
with less interruption during sleep a
heavy meal at night is less injurious
to the stomach than if given at any
other time. Besides, unless farmer
feeds after dark at night, and a good
while before daylight in the morning,
the interval between feeding is longer
through the night than through these
short winter days. A better feed at
night is therefore needed on this ac-
count.

A Girl Asleep u Years.

There is a girl named Marguerite
Bouyenval, at Thenelles, in the north
of France, near st. Quentin, who is re-
ported to have been asleep for the
past Il years. a good deal of doubt
has been thrown on this phenomenal
slumbering case, not only in Paris,
but also in Thenelles and its vicinity,
where there are two camps, one of the
believers and the other Of those who
maintain that the so-called sleeping
beauty rises at night and has a good
supper, The matter has been investi-
gated by Partisan, who has seen the
girl and found her as lean as skeleton
and as stiff as a corpse but still living.
Her mother injects milk, peptone and
sometimes wine through broken tooth
in the girls mouth
Marguerite Bouyenval made away
with a baby II years ago and the gem
darmes were sent TO her house. The
girl was so frightened at the approach
that she had an attack Of hysteria
which lasted several hours, and at the
end of which she fell into trance
The doubts thrown on the continuation
Of the trance have evidently been
caused by the fact that the mother of
the sleeping girl has made good deal
of money exhibiting her. A local
doctor, who has observed the case
during the II years, informed the in
vestigator from Paris that Marguerite
Bouyenval had been asleep during
the whole time. Occasionally she had
hysterical cries, but did not awake.
Other doctors have agreed as to the
genuineness of the phenomenon, and
the sleeping girl of Thenelles remains
human mystery.

A Young Jockeys Big Earnings.

The earnings of a successful jockey
of the highest class will range from
$4,000 to $4,000 year Henry
Griffin, that clever light weight, who
is not yet seventeen years of age, is
under contract for 1895, at salary of
$4,000, to Messrs. Gideon 4 DAILY,
who had first call on his services last
season. Griffin will receive in addition
to this princely sum an allowance for
his mounts, and when not engaged IN
riding the horse owned by his employ
ers he will be at liberty to accept 9TH
er mounts, subject, of course, to the
approval of the men to whom he is
under contract. 1t is more than like
ly that Griffin's earnings in 1895 will
surpass those of any other rider in the
history of the turf in America. He is
to receive $4,000 from Gideon & DAILY,
and with the other mounts and per-
quisities from outsiders his earnings
during the legitimate season in the
East should reach very close to $685.
900. Then, in addition to this, he is
at present riding at the San Francisco
meeting for Mr.. Ross. and it will not
be too much to place his earnings dur
ing the California season at $4,000.
For boy not yet seventeen years OF
age $4,000 is very comfortable fig
ure.

DR., Ennis Lectures,

The first of series of lectures by Rev.
Howard Wilbur Ennis, the pastor of the
Western Presbyterian Church, was given
last evening at that church before an appre-
ciative audience. Lights and Shadows of
the Metropolis was the subject discoursed
upon by the lecturer, and he held the inter-
est of his hearers from start to finish. Sew
eral hundred beautiful stereopticon views
added much to the success of the lecture.
Beginning at Battery Park, Rev. Mr.. Ennis
described Castle Garden and scenes along
the river front, the parks, the wharves and
shipping, and then branched off to the prom
inent men of New York city, speaking,
among others, of DR.. Parkhurst, Mayor
Strong and Recorder Golf. The Bowery was
rot overlooked and visit to Pell street
opium joint was also recounted.
Rev. Mr.. Ennis is to give three more lee
lures as follows: November 49, I'm the Wake
of the Half Moon ON the American Rhine
November 10, Albany, Saratoga and Lake
George" and November u, Lake Cham
plain, Adirondack Wilderness and Au Sable

TOOK HIS OWN LIFE
W. q. Collyer Ends It All With Bull
let.
Had Been Drinking Hard and Was
DespOndent-GOing to Norfolk
His Family.

W. H. Collyer, a well-dressed white man,
about forty years of age, committed sui
eide yesterday afternoon, about o'clock,
on board the Norfolk and Washington
steamer while she was lying at her wharf
at the foot of It'll street, getting ready for
her nights run down the river. Collyer
went on board a few minutes before 6
o'clock and engaged passage for Norfolk.
He entered the state room assigned to him
and locked the door. Shortly after the re-
port of a pistol shot startled all those in
hearing, and when the door was broken in
by the officers of the boat Collyer was
found lying dead, with a pistol bullet
through his heart.
Comparatively little was known OF the
man in this city, but it was evident that
he committed suicide while suffering from
dependency. He had been in :he city
since last Monday, and was stopping at the
Hotel Hanover, corner of I'd street and
Pennsylvania avenue. He had been drink
ing hard before he got here, and undoubt-
eddy continued his spree. A few days ago
1t was necessary to call DR.. Hickling, as
he was suffering from the effects of drink.
The physician managed to straighten him
out, and Collye- expressed his determine
ticn to leave town last evening.
He left the hotel yesterday afternoon at
o'clock. having sent his trunk to the wharf.
and made all his other arrangements for the
Journey. He walked leisurely down the
avenue, and boarded cable car to the
steamer The body was removed to local
undertaking establishment before the boat
left, and an investigat ton was at once put on
foot, which resulted in an Identified ton of
the man, although he had registered at the
hotel as w. H. Coleman. He was a Mason
and a member of several lodges in Michigan
and California. He is supposed to have been
from the latter state, although receipts
among his papers showed that he had been
forwarding money every week to Mrs. Hat
tie Collyer, Fife Lake. Mich. From letters
and papers in his pockets 1t was learned
that he had been in the employ of the Ma
varro lumber mills of San Francisco, as
n anager for the last five years. Collyer
had considerable money when he reached
this city, but before he got through 1t was
all gone, and he was compelled to pawn a
handsome diamond pin. Yesterday after
noon he saw Mr.. l.. r. Grim, the secretary
of the Masonic board of relief. who advanced
him sufficient money to settle up few bills
and to pay his way to Norfolk. The Masons
viii take charge of the body and of the eff
fects. The purser of the steamer says he
was perfectly sober when he engaged the
room.

THE YOUNG WILL.
1t IL Sustained by Judge and
Jury,

1t IL Sustained by Judge and
Jury.
After trial lasting more than a week,
the jury in the Young will case this morn
Ing returned verdict sustaining the will.
The will in controversy was that of the
late James e. Young, who died on the 10th
Of October, 1892 his will having been made
eighteen days earlier. The beneficiaries
under the will were John M. Young and
VIM. A. Young, brothers of the .esraror,
and Margaret L. Gaddis, sister. The de-
ceased was an eccentric person, and for
some time previous to his death lived
across the river in Virginia. The will was
contested by Thomas E. Young, a brother.
who was not remembered in the will. He
alleged that the testator was not at the
time OF the making Of the will of sound
and disposing mind, and not capable of ex-
ecuting a valid deed or contract. He also
the undue influence of the opportunities,
suggestions and persuasions of John M.
Young, VIM. A. Young or Margaret L.
Gaddis. or Of some other person or per-
sons And it was further charged by the
caveator that the will was procured by the
fraud and artif1ce of either of the said par
ties or of one or more of them
The jury retired few minutes before 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon, and reached
conclusion some time after midnight,
finding that the allegations of the caveator
mad not been sustained. The amount in
VOWED is estimated to be worth about
$4,000, and 1t is understood that the case
will be carried to the Court of Appeals.
John M Young, one of the beneffciaries
under the will, died last winter, and it is
understood that his will is also to be con-
tested

Geographic Conditions.

Major Alfred F. Sears, a prominent civil
engineer of New York, delivered an inter-
esting lecture last evening before the Ma
tional Geographic Society at MetZerott Hall
1t was the third of the series of bf-weekly
Friday evening lectures, given under the
auspices of this society. The subject of the
lecture, which was handsomely Illustrated
by stereopticon views, was Geographic Con-
ditions That Create Commercial Centers.'
In the course Of his talk he traced the devel-
opment of the various big cities of this
country, giving the reasons to account for
the growth of each. Capital, the people,
municipal government and business LIBERAL
ty are, he said, all potent factors in the crea-
ton of commercial centers.
