DR. YING OFF COWS.

Where cows are good mixers and
we'll fed there is difficulty in drying
them off sometimes. Occasionally
there are cases where it is difficult and
inadvisable to dry them off, but these
are the exception, not the rule. In
fed and cared for as there is of neces-
sity a large strain on the animal in
this continuous milking.
Cows should go dry a reasonable
length of time, neither too short nor
too long, two months being consider
ed about the right period The ami
mails then have time in which to re
cruit their exhausted energies, if good
mixers, and get in readiness for an
other seasons work.
Experienced dairymen say that it is
more profitable to have a cow give
milk ten months in year than con-
tinuously. They also say that the
milking habit can be controlled to
some extent, with the heifers by
proper management.
That is they will be very apt to be-
come dry after about the same period
of milking corresponding with the
first season. This being the case it is
advisable to stimulate the milking
propensities the first season by good
feed and care in order that the yield
may be kept up the proper length of
time. In this way it is contended the
habit of holding out in yield will be-
come fixed. This is quite important
as one or two more months of milking
each year in the life of a COW will
amount to consider able in the end.
But to come to the point of drying
off. With those COWS that habitually
become dry early there is little trouble
or injury.
But with good mixers the case will
be different. 1t will generally be ne
cessary to reduce stimulating feed,
leaving off grain entirely for time.
Watch should be kept of the udder to
see that it does not become too full or
infamed. Milk often enough to pre-
vent this and finally remove all thick
ened milk, that if left might cause
trouble with the udder and perhaps
result in the loss of a portion. There
is more Or less of this in a dairy, but
by proper care it should be avoided.
In such cases prevention is much
easier and better than cure, if it could
at all times be accomplished, which
does not always happen.

An arbitrary and unreasonable
statute, has just been happily declar-
ed unconstitutional by the supreme
court of Florida. This law made it
crime punishable by fine and i'm
prisonment for a white person to
teach colored children in public or
private school, occupying the same
building with them. The Orange
Park school, against which the statute
was aimed, and which has suffered
considerably from it, is thus left free
to continue its useful Christian work.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
THE CONFERENCE IN SESSION
AT CLEVELAND.
Fight of Women Delegates for Recog
nitiOn Likely to be Decided in
Their Favor.

CLEVELAND, May 2.-The four
women elected delegates to the general
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church have gained a substantial vic
tory. The indications now are that at
the conference on Monday the women
will win. The committee will make a
majority and a minority report on Mon
day, when the most exciting session of
the conference will be held. All other
questions have been lost sight of, and
the business of the conference will be
unimportant until the woman question
is settled.
Bishop Foster of Boston called the
conference to order this morning. 1t
was ordered that the Epworth League
Committee consist of one delegate from
each annual conference, and that the
Judiciary Committee be chosen by the
Bishops.
Bishop Henry w. Warren Of Denver
read the Episcopal address. 1t con-
tanned many recommendations.
The address congratulated the church
upon it's advancement, but said that
there was much work yet to be done.
The growth of the church during the
past four years has been 3S6, 600 souls,
and the Methodist Church is now the
greatest in numbers in the world, save
the Baptist and Catholic Churches. The
Sunday schools have gained during the
four years past 2S0,S5S. The Women S
Foreign Society and the Women's Home
Missionary Society are very prosperous.
The Bishop did not recommend any
material change in the time limit or in
the mode of making appointments, but
suggested that wisdom might provide
some method by which, under ample
safeguards, the pastoral term might be
| extended to meet very rare cases of
emergency. This was a direct blow at
those who are laboring to extend the
pastoral term, and it was greeted with
wild cheering by the delegates.
On the amusement question the ad-
dress said the church was opposed to
all pleasures that are dissipating rather
| than recreative. Churches have per-
| ished by Indulgence in what seemed at
| first to be innocent delights
| The report says the church is opposed
| to intoxicants, and urges the United
States Government to SO adjust its laws
as not to seem to legalize the liquor
traffic in States where there is prohibi-
| ton.
| The subjects of arbitration, capital
and labor were treated in a skillful man.

| Down town churches were commended
and the report said Methodists have

and the total damage caused by the
fire to this and adjoining properties
will reach many thousands of dollars.
The origin of the fire is unknown, but
1t is the generally accepted theory that
the fire started from an explosion re-
sulting from an accumulation of gases
arising from white lead, oils and other
inflammable material of the building.
A member of the firm of w. P. Full
Ter & Co. made the following statement
this afternoon:
"The fire is supposed to have originat-
ed in the rear of the machine shop on
the northwest corner of Folsom and
Beale streets, about 200 feet south of
the corroding plant of w. p. Fuller &
Co. causing a general conflagration.
The total loss caused by the fire will
exceed 500. 900. Fuller & Co.'S corroding
plant is a total loss. Their brick fac

Assassination.

TEHERAN, May 2-The following
details of the assassination of the Shah
yesterday were obtained through Off
cial sources this morning:
The Shah, accompanied by the Grand
VlZier and a number of attendants,

Aim. His majesty traversed the outer
court, where he stopped and gave a
bank note to an Arab and spoke a few
kind words to a water carrier.
Two chains barred the way to the in
ner court of the shrine. The Shah had
just passed the first chain when the
assassin approached him, and when
within few feet fired a revolver, the
bullet from which struck the Shah near
the heart. His majesty fell forward
upon his knees. but rose, walked a few
PAGES and then fell again, dying almost
at once. The assassin was immediately
seized and hurried away.
