SURPRISE ALL AROUND.

trapper, a panther, and a camp cool
The trapper was good one, and ha
had such success that lumber cam
cook, also "a trapper, was jealous {
him.
One day the trapper, John Gardene
visited an Adirondack lumber cam
and there told of his good luck. MI
Accok, became restless whe
he heard Gardeners Ta1es. One day, a
week or so later, Gardener returned
TO his camp sooner than usual, and
found Murdoch rummaging IN his
shanty. Murdoch explained that he
was searching for tobacco. Later Muir.
dock started for the lumber camp in
his boat, leaving Gardener cutting
supply of night wood.
Gardener lay down and went asleep,
then awakened suddenly with the
feeling that something, he didn't know
what, was snealing about camp. His
rife was alongside, loaded, and he
raised himself to a sitting position and
listened. He heard footballs, which he
thought were a bears. maybe a pan
theirs. The full moon, shining through
a clouded sky and a low-burning camp
fire, rendered the camps surroundings
partially discernible.
The object that made the sounds
came into view, and Gardener reckoned
that it was a bear. He leveled his rife
and was pressing the trigger, when out
of a tree overhead the long, lean, tawnr
form of panther shot down at the
STOPPING creature.
There was a yell then that surprised
Gardener and made the panther leap
sideways and put through the woods at
full speed. Then a flicker of the fire
showed a man running and stumbling
headed for the creek. A moment or
so later the splash, splash of oars sound
ed back through the woods, dying away
quickly in the distance.
The next morning Murdoch returned
to the lumber camp, having been gone
since the afternoon of the day before,
lis clothes torn to shrcds, and hide
torn, too, in places. He packed up every
thing of his own, and away he went be-
fore noon. This Gardener learned some
days after. Gardener wondered which
Of the three was the most surprised, the
panther, the cook or himself.

Green Food Is the Best Thing to Stimu-
Inte Egg Production.

Green Food Is the Best Thing to Stlmu-
late Egg Production.
No other food is so absolutely neces-
sary for the production of eggs in win
ter as the green-food ration. The coop
ing of lens during the cod months is
a modern and rather unnatural condl7
tion of things. Our forefathers never
considered it necessary to house flock
at any season of the year, except az
night, and then only in cold climates.
In the south, where the average tenn
pcrature is mild throughout the year,
fou Is are left generally to themselves
and roost in trees or on fences-anE
place where they can be higher a
night than their proving enemies.
Modern poultry culture has improveo
on oil this, and to-day the successfu
breeder. whether for egg productior
or fancy points, houses his stock com
for1ably and confines them closely Y
| their coops during the winter months
| It is therefore necessary to suppl.
them with all the variety of food the.
would otherwise gather, if left to the1
own inclinations. When the sprlnt

Maine in connection with the claims
that Governor Mckinley. of Ohio, has

which Mr.. Manly says: as
Including elections held to-day there
have been 375 delegates elected to the
National Republican Convention There
are thirty-siN contested cases which are.
not given to any candidate, because it
is unfair to assume how these cases
will be decided, either by the National
Committee or the convention. Of the 376
delegates elected, 154 are for Mckinley
provided you concede to him the twenty
six from Indiana and the eighteen from
Minnesota. Sixty-four delegates have
been elected for Governor Morton, Nine
teen for Senator Quay. Ten for Sens-
tor Cullom. Forty-four for Senator All
lison, and forty-eight for AIR. Reed. /.
