How to Measure Hay.

In answer to a number of inquiries
determining the amount of hay in stack
or NOW, when it is not convenient to
weigh it, Selling by measurement is
not al ways the most satisfactory method,
but it sometimes is most convenient
Sellers are disposed to insist that
a cube Of seven feet is a ton. This
is entirely too small, and will not weigh
out. How many cubic feet will make a
ton depends on so many conditions
that no certain rule can be given. It de"
Ponds on the kind Of hay, whether
character of the hay, whether fine or
coarse; on the condition in which it was
put in the stack, and particularly on the
size, especially the depth Of the stack
or NOW. In very large NOW, we'll
settled, 400 cubic feet Of alfalfa or
timothy may average ton, says Orange
Judd Farmer, but on top Of the NOV or
in a small stack, it requires 500 to 5l2
cubic feet; sometimes even more. 1t is
not safe for the buyer to figure on less
than SEQ cubic feet; but in well-f1lled
now, in selling we would rather weigh
than sell at that measurements
To find the number of tons in barn
NOW or hay shed, multiply the length,
depth and breadth together and divide
by the number of cubic feet you think,

condition in which it was put up, will

1t is not unusual for druggists to rec
commend Chamberlain's Cough Rene

have used it themselves, or in their

of coughs, colds and Group. They
know too that their customers are their

A MYSTERY CLEARED.

Atlanta, Ga, September 15.-Thos. j.
Delbridge's body has been found
floating at Lakewood. He was dress
ed in a bathing suit and it is presumed
that he jumped from the boat in which
he was last seen alive to take a swim,
was seized with cramps and drowned.
He was carrying $4,000 of life insur-
ance which the companies will pay.
1t had been suggested that he rowed
across the lake changed his clothing
and left the country, but the recovery
of the body disproves that.

An Indiana Husband, After Long Alb
sence, Surprises His Wife.
English Lake, Ind, September 10
William Chambers, after an absence of
fOrty-seven years, has returned to his
home. 1t was in the spring of 1S49
that Chambers, then a young man,
left his wife, bride of fifteen months
and one child, babe in the cradle to
seek a fortune for his family. He sold
all his property except the family home
and with $1,000 started overland to the
Pacific coast, whence had come stories
of fortunes made in day.
Chambers took up a claim, and let
tiers to his wife told of the wealth he
was accommodating. He was gone a
year, when the letters stopped. The
wife did not despair, she chung to the
hope and belief that he would return,
but months elapsed into years and
still no word came. Mrs. Chambers
after ten years of waiting, concluded
that her husband was dead and found
widows weeds.
Fifteen years from the time Cham
bers left Indiana, Mrs, Chambers a.
gain married, and five children were
born, all of whom are living. Her Sec
ond husband was named Woke, and
he lived until 1891, dying at the age of
seventy years and leaving her in in
digent circumstances. Yesterday,
Chambers, aged sixty-nine, his figure
bowed down with the weight Of years,
returned home He did not expect to
find his wife. 1t was to learn the
whereabouts of his child, who had
grown to manhood, that he left Cal
ifornia, where his fortune had been
made.
The sequel was that he found in Mrs,
Woke, the bride of his youth. Cham
bers says that the success on which he
had at first calculated did not come tC
him. He became discouraged and fear
full that the news of his failure would
be a crushing blow to his wife, ht
ceased to write to her. When fortune
was at his grasp, word came that she
had died of broken heart. He gave
up his life to the pursuit of wealth, no
ping that his fortune would become thu
Inheritance of his only son, of who's,
whereabouts he was also ignorant.

There have been two courses Of action
open to County Clerk Fisher in respect to
the disputed National Democratic Nomi-
mating petitions filed in his office. He could
throw out one or the other. or he could
decide to print official ballots for both.
The latter course would lave been by
far the fairer and more liberal to adop-.
1t would have prevented all dispute or
litigation. It would presumably, have
satisfied every one.-except, perhaps, the
local Republican leaders.
But Mr.. Fisher chose the other way. He
decided to favor one set of petitioners
and reject the others. Having pitched
freely conceded by all fair men, that his
next step was in all respects just and
equitable. even though it prove to be in
conflict with the letter of the law. In
other words, it is a pity Mr.. Fisher made
any choice, but, having chosen, he chose
well.
Mr.. Fisher. however, is much to be
blamed for the delay in making up his
mind. He has had the case under con-
sideration since September &c, for, OF
course. the issues nave been plain since
the moment when the nrst petition was
filed. 1t seems as il there was no rea-
son why action should nave been delayed
until now when resort to the courts is
almost impossible. The decision might
nave been rendered the very day after the
wortendyke petition wa filed.
The painful part Of it is that Mr.. Fish
er's party will be the only beneficiary If
the McDermott-Heller-Lill combination
is deprived of the official ballot, and this
would be a very sad reflection upon Mr..
Fisher, who laid himself open to a sus-
picion of offensive partisanship in last
years election, too.
