1t is feared in certain quarters the
nomination of Mckinley will array
the manufacturer against the produ-
Ger, the east against the west.-World.
Yes, the Cuckoos are fearfully
"ateard." To show the utter Stiffness
of the above, it is charged by OPP
ponents of Governor Mckinley that
the manufacturers of the East have
raised large corruption fund with
which to buy delegates for him, and
reports from every quarter is that he
IS irresistible because the common
people are for him. +"
We very much fear that the fear re-
ierred to by our neighbor originated
n fThee mind of the writer of the item
and was p1SSS1eed by fear that the
rule of ruin is near an end.

All of the Herald boys and girls
want a fish that will tell them all
about themselves. They usually sell
for ten cents bat we virtually give
them away--only one cent.
Get Herald fish and have heap
of fun with your playmates.
The "old folks" like those fish just
as we'll as the boys and girls, but they
cannot get them. They are for the
youngsters.
When a young fellow goes to see
his best girl he can have lots of fun
with a Herald fish.

THE DORIC DUE TOMORROW
FROM LIVERPOOL TO SAN FRAN
CISCO IN FORTY DAYS.
Description Of a Magnificent Vessel
which VIII Grace Honolulu
Harbor Tomorrow.

The splendid White Star steam
ship Doric is due from San Fran
cisco tomorrow and as she is a
fast boat she may get in before.
In appearance the Doric resem-
bles her sisters, the Oceanic, Cop
tic and Belgic, but her interior is
more magnificent than that Of the
three other vessels. The furnish
ings are of oak, teak and mahoga-
ny, the colors of the wood blend
ing together in perfect harmony.
The saloons with their beautiful
gildings, the cozy smoking-rooms
with their easy chairs and loung-
ing-places, the library with its
hundreds of finely bound volumes,
and, above all, the grand, large
staterooms,m make this noble craft
veritable ocean palace.
She is 440 feet long (ten feet
more than the Coptic), 44-foot
beam and 81 feet in depth. Her
gross tonnage 1874, more than
that of her sister by 1856 tons. The
engines are triple expansion, of
$500 horse power, fitted with How
don's forced draught. Her new
boilers have been tested at $50
pounds steam pressure.
The Dorlc is commanded by
Captain Harry Smith, a brother
of the old captain Of the Oceanic.
He holds the commission of lieu
tenant in the Royal Naval Reserve.
First Officer A. Hambleton is also
an officer in the Reserve.
The other officers are: G. Il.
Starck, second; b. f. Lawlor,
third; G. H. Cross, fourth; w. AL
len, chief engineer; J. CASTOR, first
assistant; j. Reid, second; David
McKinnon, third; Thomas Tom
linson, fourth; William Crawford,
fifth; Thomas Hellon, boiler
maker. Chief Steward w. Wheat
is acting purser. Chief Engineer
Allen, First Assistant CASTOR and
Third Assistant McKinnon are
old o. and o. engineers and we'll
known here.
The Doric is fast vessel. She was
built about twelve years ago, and
has been for long time in the
Australian line. She was recent
ly reftted throughout for the
Occidental and Oriental service,
with new engines, boilers, etc.
She made the run from Liverpool
to San Francisco in forty. lone
days, out having to anchor over
night at Sandy Point, the entrance
to the Straits of Magellan, her
steaming time was only forty
days. The distance is 1860
miles, which makes an average of
over fourteen knots an hour. Not
withstanding the fact that she
started with new boilers and en-
gines there were only two stops
at sea-one of an hour and the
other of five minutes. During all
the long voyage the propeller re-
corded just 100000 revolutions.
Chief Engineer Allen was form
erly on the Oceanic, which he told
San Francisco reporter has been
sold to Harland & Wolfe of Bel
fast, who will reft' her for the
German Ocean trade. Said he:
"The company wanted a larger
and faster vessel for this run and
here we are. Nothing of any note
happened during our trip, we just
went ahead day after day reeling
off fourteen and fifteen knots from
hour to hour. In calm and storm
the Doric goes grandly on like the
stately Grecian motion that has
given her name. These great new
engines drive her in the teeth of
a gale as they do over the smooth
waters of the harhor.

Salt is IN essential constituent Of the

How 10 Get the rails or.
A Dakota sheep man was absent
from homo when the lambs were
trimmed, and the man In charge failed
to cut or their, tails. The owner, when
he returned, studied long as to how to
get their tails of, and finally solved
the question. He traded them OFF
along with the sheep. There has been
some talk among theorists of breeding
them of. The horns have. been bred
on cattle, why not breed the tails on
sheep; is the way they argue. These
speculations are all right as specula-
lions, but when 1t is remembered that
lambs tails have been removed for
centuries and that instances Of lambs
dropping without tails are very rare,
indeed, the prospect is not promising.
IL one fails to cut of the tails at the
time when the work should be done,
the next best way to get them OF is to
trade them of, providing it be not too
expensive Anything that Is very ex-
pensive just now must be passed over
by the sheep men, for there is no room
in this business for much extra ex.

An Experiment in Feedins.

An Experiment in Feeding.
To test the relative merit Of crushed
vs.. whole oats in feeding horses, one
Of the great London omnibus COM
panies some years ago conducted an
interesting experiment. OF the 5000
horses in the company's employ one
half were fed on crushed oats and cut
hay and straw, and the other half on
whole oats and hay. The ration al
lowed per day to each horse, accord
ing to the one system, was crushed
oats, 16 pounds; cut hay ~ pounds;
cut straw, ~ pounds. The quantity
allowed according to the old system
was, whole oats, 10 pounds; uncut
hay, 10 pounds. A daily saving Of 6
pounds Of food was thus effected, and
this saving was not merely in the
quantity, but in the value of the ma
terials employed, for straw in the
former case was substituted for hay in
the latter. The advantage Of one kind
Of feeding over the other was fur more
apparent when reduced to money val
ue. The saving by using the crushed
oats and cut hay was nearly 221s pence

HIS AMpUrArED LEG ACHES.

Strange Case Of Texan and How
He Got Relief.
Lester Maxwell, who lives near here,
was q passenger on the Katy train
that was wrecked near Waxahatchie
Nov. /, and had leg broken in the
wreck. He was brought to Hillsboro
on the next train, and his wounds
dressed by physicians. About a week
ago the limb got to paining him so
badly that physicians amputated It.
1t was buried with the bandages on
1t. He appears to be doing fairly well,
but at times complains of the missing
limb hurting him. To-day the pains
got so severe in the toes Of the miss
ing limb he could not endure 1t and
begged that It be taken up to see If
something was not the matter with II.
The sexton. John Harris, who dug It
up, says: when It was disinterred
the toes and foot were swollen ex-
ceedingly tight In the bandage. I cut
1t, and at almost the same minute the
pains ceased troubling him. Not long
afterward he complained that his knee
was paining him in the same manner
as the foot. When 1t was taken up It
was as tight as the toes had been, and
the same relief followed when the
bandage was cut that followed wher.
the bandage on the foot was cut"
The case was considered very re.
markable. The physicians do not at
tribute the relief attendant on the cut
ting Of the bandages to the fact Of
their being cut. They say the same
relief would have been obtained by
pretending to have done so. Cases are
not infrequent where men who have
had one or more limbs amputated COM
planned Of extreme heat or cold in the
amputated members, but that is ac-
counted for by the fact of the nerves
Of such being acted on by the heat or
cold. But the phenomenon of to-day
cannot be explained on any logical rea.

Oats for stock.

It is the tendency Of many stock
feeders to undervalue oats for feed
ing stock other than horses. Now, we
have IN immense yield this year,
which will keep the price compare
lively low. Oats are richer in protein
and fat than many Of the other coarse
grains; in fact, they. combine in them
selves just about what is considered
q we'll balanced ration. Not only do
oats supply the needs of animals in
well balanced proportions, but rarely
IL ever do animals become sick by
overfeeding on them after they have
become accustomed to an oat diet. In
view Of their abundance and cheap.
ness feeders would do well to feed
oats rather than buy grain or other
foods. To growing cattle, sheep OF
mich cows, ground oats should be
more generally fed than they are.-
