Farmers must learn that the best

Turkeys are an especially valua-

raised if one knows how. Five hens

DOG THAT WORMS TOBACCO.
Kentucky Canine That IL Hired Out as q
Field Hand.


Speaking of funny things, did you
ever hear of wonderful dog that is
owned by John A. Durr, who lives at
Vanarsdal, little settlement down in
Mercer county, KY? asks the Chicago
Times. This dog beats Dick Bruce's
and Tom Quinlin's dogs all holler. He
is worth his weight in gold. He worms
tobacco. He begins at the end of the
row and goes down the line at q lively
gait, and no worm is left to tell the
tale of the desolation wrought. The
dog learned this trick by following
Durr's little boys. When the boys
would start down the row the dog
would follow along.
After watching the youngsters for
several days the dog caught on to the
work himself and took great liking
to it. One day Durr went out to his
tobacco patch and found his boys play
ing in the shade, which was not a
strange thing for boys to do. "Why
the devil amt you worming tobacco?"
he yelled. 'Neds doing it," they yelled
back. Durr went to the patch and
found the big pointer dog busily en-
gagged in worming the plants, and he
was doing it faster than both the boys
could have done. Durr was tickled to
death. After his own patch had been
wormed he hired the dog out to his
nciehbors at one dollar day. All this
can be proved by two or three revenue
men who never lie.

uNLUCKY THIRTEEN.
An Instance Where q Party Of That
Number Meet With Strange
Fatalities.

The following contained in q special
from Wellston to Cincinnati daily
will be grain OF comfort to the super.
stitious:
"Two years ago, shortly after his re.
elections to the Office of marshal, the
friends of Stephen B. Edwards rendered
him a banquet and made the night
memorable by merriment, music and
feasting. Just as the party was break.
ing up at daybreak some one superstit.
iously disposed remarked There are
exactly thirteen guests, and that is an
nn!ucky number. hope that no svil
will result from our meeting tonight
"There are now only four persons
living out Of that party who have not
met with some great misfortune.
"Mr. Edwards himself, while perform.
ing his duties, shot and killed a man
soon after his election. A few months
later, he died Of consumption. Next
Emil Krahmer, who presided at the
banquet, was killed by the cars in
Indiana.
"Other deaths followed with aston.
ishing rapidity. Peter Billingsley,
freight conductor, and one of the mer.
riest of the fatal party, was ground to
death beneath the cars. One Kessen.
ger was shot through the heart and in.
stantly killed by Philip Schuff, whose
trial for murder is now in progress
before the Common Pleas Court. Chas.
Morgan, the genial bartender, and once
business partner of +. L. Harper, OF
Fidelity bank fame, fell from the window
of the. room in which the banquet
was held and received injuries which
afterward proved fatal. Another, a
piano agent, was arrested for embezzle.
ment and sent to the penitentiary by D.
H. Baldwin & Co., OF Cincinnati. George
L. Dawley, civil engineer, met like
fate, having been convicted for forgery
and given a ten years sentence. Two
others of the guests have since been
injured in the mines and have little
hope of recovery.
ut would now be difficult to per
suade the survivors that Is is not an
unlucky number" %.

Legally Dead !!

Once on time, number Of years
ago, q man was tried for murder, in
Jackson county, Ohio, and convicted.
He was ably defended by Hon. Hezekiah
Bundy, but the proof was so conclusive
that man was convicted and sentenced
to be hanged. Between the time the
sentence was pronounced and the date
set for it's execution, the condemned
man escaped from jail and vas not re-
captured. He remained. away until after
the day set for execution had passed.,
and then came boldly into Jackson
Court House. 80 ~ l%
There was no law to resentence him.
It was case not provided for. by law.
Any one who will examine Swans Re.
vised Statutes Of Ohio, for l84l, will see
this case was entirely unprovided for.
There never were any common law of.
fences in Ohio, nor common law methods
OF punishment. It has been the glory
of our jurisprudence that each step in
criminal procedure must be defined by
Statute. We do not recognize fintend.
ments' of law in criminal matters. Un-
der these circumstances, the jackson
county man was esteemed dead in law,
and could not be revived for the purpose
of another execution. -
The first Statute which attempted to
remedy this was passed March 27, ls4l,
80 vol. Ohio Laws, lS4l, but it did not
provide fully, and left loophole for
escape.
So, at last, Hon. Hezekiah Bundy, who
was a member of the Senate, had the
following act passed which is now the
law:
If the accused escape after sentence,
and be not retaken before the time fixed
for his execution, any Sheriff may re-
arrest him and commit him to the Jail
of the proper county, and make return
thereof to the Court in which the sen.
tence was passed and thereupon, the
Court shall again tix the time for exc
cution.
This provision has been carried for
ward and retained in each revision OF
our Statutes, and is now known as
Section 7344.
No more such anomalies can longer
exist here as live men passing as dead
ones, because, having been sentenced to
death the law would presume the sen
tence carried out.
The eastern papers contain an account
of similar case, and for this reason we
recall the story told by Hon. H. H
Bundy to group of lawyers years ago
from one of whom, who was present, We
heard it and give it as curious remind
er OF how legislation must be made te
fit emergencies. Many such illustration
occur in Ohio.
