Inc farmers IN many OF the counties

teresting question for discussion has
been the new method Of farming IN the

successful work in interesting the farm
ers in this system Of farming than any
other man. About eight months ego
tho HERALD published several nriic!es
on thus system of farming fully explain

the satisfactory results that had been
obtained from experiments. We urged
the farmers Of Philips county TO Try this
mei bod. of farming and some Of them are
preparing TO do ~ this coming crop sea-

consists OF either subsolling or yer. deep

SHOT HIMSELF AND HIS WIFE.
FrlghJful Deeds of a Retired Iowa
Man at Madison, Wis.

MADISON, Wis, Feb. 25. A. w. Pat
terson, formerly a resident OF Algona,
Iowa, but who had come to Madison to
educate his children at the University,
which is his " alma mater, shot his
wife in the brain at 8 O'Clock this
morning and then lodged a bullet in
his W skull. The wife is still living
with the bullet in her brain. She is
unconscious and her death is only a
matter of hours. The husband died
two hours after the shooting is sup
posed to have occurred. Whether
they both agreed to die together, as a
letter which the husband left would
seem to indicate, or the CRIME was the
deed of a mailman and skillfully plan
ned is a mystery.
On a table in the room of a daugh-
ter was found a card stating that a let
ter would be found in the mothers
pocket. This was securely fastened
with pins, but when opened there was
found a brief message stating that
both had decided the children would
be better off without them and they
had therefore planned to die. This
was the husbands handwriting. The
fact that both husband and wife made
wills within the last few days would
seem to indicate that the crime was
premeditated by each. Their joint
property is worth 500, 900, and the
husband willed that his share should
60 to the three older children, while
the wife asked that hers be given to
the two younger children.
The family lived in a large house at
202 Carroll street, in a fashionable
quarter of the city. Patterson gradu-
ated from the University years ago.
He has five children.

However, purchased a bottle of SIS,
and to my delight it seemed to benefit
her. After she had taken a couple of
bottles the cance began to heal, and
astonishing as 1T may seem, a few bot
ties more cured her entirely. You can
probably better understand how re-
markable this cure was when Iexp1ain
that the cancer had eaten two holes in
h breast two inches deep. These
healed up entirely, and although ten
years have elapsed, not a sign of the
disease has ever returned, and we are
assured of the p~ermanence of the cure,

DEATH AND RUIN IN AUSTRALIA.
Men, Women and Children Drop Down
and Die in the Streets and Crops
Are Burned Up From the
Effects of the Kill
ing Heat.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Feb. 27.-The
Canadlan-Australian steamship Miow-
era arrived to-day several days late,
having been delayed at the antipodes
owing to a break in her machinery.
Mail adVices are to the effect that be-
sides terrible storms and awful de-
struction to marine property along
the Australian coast the weather on
land has been unprecedentedly hot
and the death rate from sunstroke has
been excessively high. In a great
many sections the crops are ruined.
In Queenland, 113 in the shade is the
temperature, and in many places in
Australia the thermometer reached
125 in the shade. Startling statistics
are to hand of death from heat.
On n day previous to the sailing
of the Miowera eighty people were in
tered at Sydney. So great was the
demand for graves that managers of
cemeteries had to engage a number of
assistants. Nearly all those who sue
oumbod were infants and aged per-
sons. In the crowded commercial
centers citizens are walking the
streets all night. There is a mad rush
from the city to the country.
Records are coming in from north
and east, south and west from the ter
rible heat. Sheep and cattle are dying
in droves for want of fodder and
water. In Queenland, New South
Wales and Victoria the heat has never
been so excessive. Men, women,
children and horses drop down in the
street and die before assistance can
reach them. To add to the distress
scarlet fever and other epidemics pre-
vail in many localities.

She Tips the Scales at Ono Hundred
and Ninety-Six Pounds.

A Washington special to the Chi
cago Tribune says: People who knew
Frances Folsom as a slight young
school girl and have not enjoyed the
privilege of seeing her since are not
altogether prepared for the develop
ment which has taken place since hel
marriage.
Mrs. Cleveland has acquired add
tional weight almost imperceptibly,
but non the less surely. 1t does not
detract in the slightest degree from
her charming presence, and many OF
her friends believe that with her car-
riage the added weight was almost
necessary.
Some of Mrs. Cieveland's most in
innate friends have been particularly
curious of late to know how much she
actually weighed, but they we're not
altogether prepared for the statement
she made the other day to one of her
friends that she tipped the scales at
exactly 1876 pounds.

He WAS BOILED
Till His Flesh Fell Of-AWful Deed OF
FIends Intent on Robbery.

SHAMoKIN, PENN, Feb. 27.-While
Paul Osman, of Hickory Ridge, was on
his way home from Shamokin early
this morning he was stopped near
Luke Fidler Colliery by three masked
men, who asked for mis- money. He
had none. The b~ighwaymen grabbed
him and ran him to a pipe close by
which emitted steam and boiling
water. Osman again stated that he
had no money, and, diyining the
iendish purpose of his captors, strug-
gled for liberty.
He was knocked down and carried
to the pipe. The highwaymen then
held him over the escaping steam to
torture him into confessing the where
abouts of 800, which one of the men
said Osman had when he left Shamo-
kin. The latter was not over the
steam 20 seconds until large strips of
skin came off his back. He shrieked
madly for help, but as the pipe which
led from the shaft was 100 yards from
the public highway his cries were I'M
heard.
Finally by a desperate effort he re-
gained ~momontory colnne,s, during
which he told the men that if he had
money he would give it to them SOON
er than suffer such torture. They
laughed, and told him he was to be
boiled alive.
AT this juncture he tainted and the
heartless wretches thinking him dead
laid him on a pile of planks and fled.
Miners discovered the unfortunate
senseless an hour later. DIR.
Meek was summoned and managed to
Osman.
When the details of the awful oc-
were learned he was removed
home and the physicians found that
one side of the poor fellow had been
burned to the bone from the knee to
the neck. He cannot possibly re-

REICHEL IS DEAD.
Paralysis of the Brain Kills the Macon
Man Who Attempted Suicide.

MACON, Mo, Feb. 27.-George p.
Reichel is dead. January s last he
sued his wife, Virginia, for a divorce
on the charge of adultery. That night
he cut his throat. Several days later
he was taken to st. Louis for treat
ment and after two reconciliations be-
tween him and his wife he was brought
home by her February 5. He died last
night at 1915 o'clock from paralysis
growing out of brain trouble. The
wound in his throat was doing well.
Reichel was a prominent knight TO
Pythias and will be buried under the
auspices of that order in Macon to-
morrow at 3 O'Clock.
Reichel recently made a will trans
ferring all his property not formerly
decided to his wife and several thous-
and dollars of life insurance to his
boy. This Will was made the day after
he cut his throat and it is likely that
Mrs. Reichel will attempt to break it.

A Bolt Is Assured.
THE SILVER REPUBLICANS WILL
STAMPEDE.
Will Be at st. Louis Significance of
Recent Senate Hostilities-
Show C~onclusively That
Silverites Are Not
Blufing.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 2s.-The
serious quarrel among Republicans in
the Senate has dwarfed everything
else at the national capital in interest
for the time being. The open out
break of hostilities did not begin I'M
til all the arts of diplomacy had been
exhausted in efforts to compromise
existing difficulties and maintain the
peace among the brethren.
1t seems to be accepted as a GER
tainty that the formal break will oc-
cur at ST. Louis. Teller, Dubois and
Carter and the other free coinage
men insist still that they are good and
loyal Republicans, but that they can
not act with the Republican party if
it departs from its time-honored BIZ
metallic policy. They insist they are
sound protectionists, too, in theory,
but that in order to give force to the
theory they must get protection in
practice. They admit that high tariff
duties are of little benefit to the peo-
pie of the West, and that consequent
ly all they could get from the pro-
tective Epolicy is encouragement for
their mining industries.
The little dribble of a tax doled cut
to them Oh wool, ores and fruit they
consider of no consequence. Their
great industry is silver mining. They
insist that the industry of silver min
ing is of as great importance to the
people of the mountain States as
manufactures are to the people of the
Eastern States. Reasoning this way,
they find no trouble in convincing
themselves that the policy of protec-
ton should embrace the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver, and in this
way they have taken their stand. |
Their war cry is, no free coinage, no
protection; or reverse it, and say, |
free coinage and protection.
The first serious row among the
the Eastern and Western elements of
the party occurred in caucus, and the
details were revealed at the time. |
The Eastern leaders, however, were
convinced that the Western men
were merely bluf1ing, and eventually
would not execute their threats of
defeating the tariff bill unless the
providing for the free COIN
age of silver was linked with it. Even
when the first votes were cast in the
Senate by the Western men lnimical
to p~rotectionists, it was thought by
Aldrich and company that they were
merely trying to brighten the older
leaders. There is no longer a doubt,
however, that the silver men are in
dead earnest and the Republican lead
ers are preparing to fix their house
accordingly.
