At the meeting of the county court,
which convenes tomorrow, the petition of
the taxpayers" of the precincts outside
OF the city, which is alleged to have been
written by a member of the court itself.
asking that the salary of the county meat
inspector be raised from $50 to $40 per
month, will come up. 1t is safe to say
that the prayer of the petitioners will be
granted. and that no reference to the Sc

Collector Spencer will appear and will
ask that the court make an appropriation
for postage stamps for his department.
This action is made necessary by the
speech of the postmaster, who is reported
as having told Mr.. Spencer that if he
wanted envelopes he would like to have
him guarantee that he, the collector,
would be personally responsible for their
payment. The last collector is alleged to
have been caught on stamp deal and
had to pay for those he purchased out of
MS own pocket, and from what is gather

Spencer will take no chances. In other
words, no stamps, no notices.

POULTRY NOTES.

Thousands of fowls are killed every
year by drugs. just as there are thous-
ands of human beings sent to untimely
graves by the same agency. One trouble
Is that the doctoring of fowls is purely
guesswork; we drug for imaginary aftic-
tons.
A breeder of long experience declares
that sickness and Affections among fowls
in the poultry yard are the result of bad
management or because we are breeding
fowls too fine-breeding them for the
showroom instead of the hardness, vigor
and strong constitutional attachments
The comb is an index to the condition
Of the fowl. Whenever the comb becomes
pale it is a sure sign that something is
wrong, and the fowl should be removed
to a secluded place, away from the 9th
ers of the flock.
Who does not know that a continued
diet of one kind of provision becomes
much more palling 10 the appetite than
that same diet, continued longer perhaps,
but interspersed with something else oc-
casionaIly? A varied diet for poultry is
of quite as much consequence in the sys-
tenn of good feeding. as is the plan of pro-
viding sound, nutritious provender for the
fowls we keep. It is not a desirable way
t. provide our birds with any kind of
feed-however good it may be.-Poultry
Keeper.
In the summer, when the weather is
warm and settled, there is little danger OF
colds, excepting from the ventilated coops
or roosting~placeS and from wet grass.

IN HOT WATER.
A PECULIAR INSECT IS FOUND IN
WYOMING.
1t Lives in Springs Whose Waters
Are Considerably Above Blood
Heat, and Affords an Interesting
Study.

Evanston, Wyo., June 1.-Perha ps
the most interesting Of all the netural
regions on the globe is that portion
Of the United States set off FROM the
northwest corner of Wyoming and cal
led the National park. And not only is
the park itself interesting and all of
thermal water interest confined within
its boundaries; but the surrounding
country abnunds in the wealth OF nat
ural curiosities that have made the re-
gion so famous.
In the section of country called star
Valley. lying On the western border Of
Uinta county. which is also the west
ern boundary of the state, and dis
tant about 100 miles south of the Vel
loWstone National park, there are
thermal springs near a settlement
called Auburn, which possess some of
natures grandest wonders. In this
sulphur springs of water that boil I'M
ceasingly from subterranean depths
there lives an insect, larvae in its ma
ture and habits, in a temperature
much above that in which we have
been accustomed to believe animal life
could exist.
The insect and its strange habit
years ago when 1, in company with
Mr.. John R. Arnold, long an official
Of this county, were taken by Mr.
George Davis and Mr.. James H. Hol-
brook, of Auburn, to visit the sulphur
pots and see the animal life that in
habited them. 1t is needless to say
that Mr.. Arnold and myself were in
credulous. All people are at the men
ton of a thing so unnatural, and so
are you, my reader. But seeing is be-
lieving; and we were soon changed
from skeptics to firm believers. There
in the hot water, at a temperature
much above blood heat, were the small
larvae insects dIsporting themselves in
the places selected by them for
congenial home during one period of
their metamorphosis. We did not see
any of them in either of the other
stages of development, though 1 have
since learned from Prof. Bonner of the
Nebraska State University, who has
assisted me very materially in the at
tempts to locate this strange creature,
that the metamorphosis is probably
complete and that it is probably some
species of the lepidoteral (butter1y).
In one of the chronological reports
OF the United States government it
appears that there have been found
some sort of such hot water insects
in the geyser basin region in Yellow
stone Park, and another somewhere
IN Mexico, the only places where, so
far as 1 have been able to learn, hot |
water insects have been found.
What a wonderful fact in the adap- |
tation of life to it's surroundings is |
here shown Can any one shut his |
eyes to some Of the greatest deduc-
tions of science after the observation |
of such phenomena? If any of the |
readers of The Herald have made any
of similar animate condi- |
tions they win confer a favor by cor
responding with the undersigned at
Evanston, Wyo.

SERGEANT GRANTEES CASE
AN INDICATION THAT HE HAS BEEN
FOUND GUILTY.
He Was Taken to the Guard House
at Fort Douglas Yesterday For
COnfinemeHt-Anothe Court-Mar-
tiaI.

Sergeant Granlee has very likely
been found guilty of embezzlement by
the court martial, as he was yester-
day taken to the guard house for
confinement
During his trial he was confined to
his house under guard of a non-com-
mlssroned sentry and the change to
closer confinement indicates that the
decree of the court is not in his favor.
1t may be several weeks before the
reviewing authorities, at Washington,
return the proceedings of the court
either as approved Or disapproved 1t
is believed by many that Granlee will
eventually escape, but will doubtless
lose his position in the army and con-
sequently receive his discharge.
Another court martial WEI, it is
said, convene at Fort Douglas very
soon, and Major Wallace, Captain
Fuller and Major Coolidge, who ex-
pected to leave for the east yesterday,
were directed to remain here.

San Francisco, June ANOTHER diaboli-
cal crime, bearing some resemblance to
the horrible tragedies of Emanuel church.
was unearthed this afternoon by the dis
coyery that Miss Nellie Harrington, aged
s., who occupied an upper fat at 1017 Ellis
street, had been outraged ana murdered
in her bed room, the door locked and her
clothing and the furniture of the apart
ment then set on fire. All the drawers
and boxes in the room were open and had
been ransacked, several articles of jewel
~ and her purse had been stolen. Sew
eral dodgers occupy rooms in the nat,
but none saw strangers about or heard
any unusual sound. Attention was first
attracted b. the smoke issuing from Miss
Aarrington'S rooms. When her door was
broken open, the bedding piled in the
cent Ell of the room was found to be on
fire, and beneath the, snouldering clothes
was the bIood-staireG body Of Miss Har-
T1ngton. The lower part Of her body was
badly burned, but the face had escaped
the flames. The murder was particularly
brutal. Stab wounds were found all over
the unfortunate woman's body and OH her
face. Her jaw was broken.
The theory CT the police is that while a
thlef was IN the room Miss Harrington
entered. The man then murdered and as
s2ulted her, set fire TO the bedding to con-
ceal his crime, and after looting the room
escaped, locking the door and carrying
Oh the key.
Bank book with deposits aggregating
500 was found, but no trace of $3.50 in gold
which Miss Harrington had in her pos
session at noon today. Neighbors say
that Miss Harrington had a frequent
caller, who was accustomed to drive to
her fiat a buggy was noticed in front
Of the residence this afternoon Miss
Harrington rented rooms and it is said
That a Japanese was a ledger last night.
He left the fat today and the police are
looking for him.
The police are looking for State
Senator Buck of Solano county, that
ne may explain his connections with
the murdered woman. A photograph
of Buck was found in Miss Harring-
toms room and the occupants of the
house identify it as the only man who
called to see Mss Harrington.
They say that the man whose pho
tograph was found frequently called
On her and took her out driving.
The police found Senator Buck to-
night in his home in Alameda. He
went with an officer to take a train
to San Francisco. While driving to
the station their vehicle was upset
and Buck and the officer were thrown
out. Buck was seriously injured and
is suffering from conclusion of the
brain. He was taken back to his
home where he now IS.

MADE CLEAR AT LAST.

A lawyer noted for his success on
cross-examination, found his match
in a recent trial, when he asked a
long-suffering witness how long he had
worked at his business of tin-rOofng.
The answer was:
II have worked at it on and off, but
have worked at it steady for the past
twelve years
How long off and on have you
worked at it?'
'+SiXty-five years"
'How old are your"
'fSixty-five."
Then you have been a tin-roofer
from birth?'
mo, sir; of course I haven't
'sThen why do you say that you have
worked at your trade sixty-dve
years."
Because you asked me how long off
and on I had worked at it 1 have
worked at it off and on for sixty-five
years-twenty years on and forty-five
years Off"
Here there was a roar in the court
room, but not at the expense Of the
witness, and his inquisitOr hurriedly
finished his examination in great con-
fusion.-HarperS Magazine.

FUNDS IN CHANCERY.
VAST Sums Held in England Await
ing Owners.

The funds in court in 1894 amounted
to the huge total Of f64,0l5,lS1 As Id;
but, says Chambers Journal, the pro-
portion of this sum in want OF own
ers is not stated. 1t is interesting to
note that during the preceding year
payments were made to SUCCESSFUL
claimants and others amounting TO
f16. 1924 152 IS. There is also a large sum
in court under the heading Foreign
currencies," made up or rupees,
crowns, dollars, forms, franks, guild
ers, lire and marks. Reference should
also be made to long list or boxes
and other miscellaneous efIectS re-
manning in the custody of the bank of
England, on behalf or the supreme
court of judicature.
AN official list of the titles of chan
Gerry causes undealt with for fifteen
years or upward is published trienni-
ally, but as the names of the testatorS
or persons entitled to the funds are
in the majority of cases not stated, the
information is of little value to the
general public To give an instance:
In 1923 Nathaniel Briggs, one of the
next of kin of Thomas Storke, who died
in 1850, was advertised for by order CT
the court of chancery. The funds were
not claimed, and in the latest list of
dormant funds we find the title or the
cn&ncery suit given lnuS' fOmerOy
VS.. Brewer No mention is made that
the next of kin of Thomas Storke are
wanted.
An idea Of the large number of SIM
liar cases may be gained from the fact
that the list of unclaimed funds fills
1877 pages. This list is only an index
to the titles of accounts and is not IN
any sense either register of next of
kin wanted, or of dapsed legacies, in
testates' estates, unclaimed dividends,
