KILLED FOR FIFTY CENTS.
A Man BY the Name of Murphy Shot
and Killed Willie Wyse at
DsKalb, Texas.

On Saturday evening at DeKalb,
Texas, in the adjoining county,
Bowie, a man by the name of MUIR
ply opened fire on Willie Wyse, a
merchant, and shot him four times,
and Wyse died on Sunday morning
from the wounds. Murphy was ar
rested soon after the shooting and
carried to the county Jail at New
Boston.
There was strong talk of lynch
ing the murderer after the shoot
Ing was over, and had Murphy re-
mained until Wyse died he would
have been strung up beyond doubt
as the murder was one which the
provocation did not justify.
1t seems that Wyse had sold
Murphy a wagon, and when he came
in town after the trade, he sought
Wyse's store and asked him to cred
it him for so cents worth of goods,
which Wyse refused to do. Muir
ply then said, "That wagon l got
from you was damaged to the
amount of 80 cents and you can call
this square. Here Wyse took the
bundle from him and told him he
would not do it as he did not feel
that he should be made to pay the
damage after the trade was made.
Murphy wheeled off and left the
store, but soon returned and met
Wyse at the door, and told him he
had come back to settle that ac-
count with him. Wyse threw kim
self on the defensive, and as Muir
ply came on him gave him blow in
the face, which was returned by
four shots from Murphy's pistol, all
the shots taking effect in Wyse's
body.
Wyse was taken home and lived
until morning, when he expired.

II Christ Came to Congress.

Milford Howard, the author of
IF Christ Came to Congress, made
a holy (?) show of himself a few
days ago IN the same Congressional
hall he wrote so glibly about in his
book. Howard is an Albanian,
his book gave him notoriety, and
he was elected to Congress. In his
book be charges members of Con-
press and officers of the govern
ment with all kinds of crime, even
attacking the President. His pic
ture of Washington makes it a ver-
table sink hole of iniquity. His
book contained chart of the city,
giving disreputable houses, mum
Der of each and the names OF in
mates thereof. 1t was scandal
GUS production, and was forbidden
transport through the mails. A
few days ago he entered the halls OF
Congress in an intoxicated state and
proceeded to stretch himself out
and 90 to sleep. He was taken in
charge by three men and dragged
from the hall, much to the disgust
of the other members and the peo-
pie in the galleries. Howard, we
are pleased to say, is not a Demo
crat. He is a Populist. There Is
but one other like instance on rec
ord, and that was when Riddleber-
ger, Republican, from Virginia, was
elected from the Senate for being
intoxicated, by order of President
pro TEN ingalls,.

tetsed and Won by Marietta.
At the College Athletic grounds Fri
day afternoon large and enthusiastic
crowd witnessed ten inning game be-
tween the Marietta and Corning teams.
In the first and second innings the
contest was marked by loose playing
and costly errors on both sides, but
both mines later got their blood heated
and settled down to business.
The chief feature of the game was
the heavy batting, which accounts for
the number of runs made. Mckinney,
Mariettas pitcher, had four strike-outs
to his credit, and Thomas, of Corning,
six. Sullivan, of the Marietta's, made
several costly muffs of easy flies in the
beginning of the game, but redeemed
himself by heavy batting. Pratt
played fine game behind the bat.

ment Station recently purchased twen-
ty-four young cattle for use in feeding
experiments. The cattle were such as
could be obtained in the vicinity. There
are better cattle and many worse ones
in the territory. Eight calves averaged
415 pounds, eight two year old steers
averaged $50 and eight yearlings aver
aged sos younds. That is the yearling
steers had been kept for year for an
average gain of lao pounds, the two
year olds another year for gain of 20
pounds. Two of the calves weighed
more each than did one of the yearlings,
and one yearling weighed within ~
pounds of as much as one OF the two
year olds. AS the exact ages were I'M
known, it is possible there was less than
a years difference in the age in each
case. 1t is also true that the calves
were better bred than either Of the old
er lots. But in any case there was very
little pay for the food consumed by the
older cattle.

sheen for Mutton.

The best mutton sheep is the sheep
which has a long body, round barrel,
and is hardy and early in maturing. 1t
should also be plump and solid-not
merely fat-in those portions OF the
carcass where the best mutton is locat-
ed. The wool sheep may be very diff
ferent. He is cultivated" for his out
side, while the mutton sheep is grown
for his inside. Mutton is great dish
in "merrie England" though not quite
so national as roast beef; but it has
long been popularity appreciated there,
and now is constantly growing in IA
vor on this side of the water. The
great drawback in America has been
the poor quality of mutton offered.
Butchers call anything that belonged
to the sheep family spring lamb" ut
terly regardless of its age and tough
ness, and thus fostered a distrust of
mutton for table use. Properly pre-
pared 1t is a delicious meat-delicate
and tender; but do not select ten year
old animals as candidates for popular
favor. The strong and sinewy NUT
ton so often put on the market as spring
lamb, has made inexperienced house
keepers suspicious of everything
''sheepish," and has caused sheep to be
raised for wool rather than for food.
The tide is turning now, for the good

''We quickened our pace to the edge
of clump of poplars that commanded
view of the road Even before we saw
his flying horse and his face cleaning
in the moonlight we knew instinctively
that it was Dick Xanthus and that he
was in trouble.
I'VE saw that his horse was carrying
double and we smiled even as we halted
and drew our sabers, for the noise of
pursuers sounded close upon the clatter
of his horses hoofs. But thought we, he
will soon pass our line and then we will
fash out and put his assailants to flight.
We wished to take no rash measures.
"On they came, pursuer and pursued.
The lieutenant was very near us, and
we could see him looking down into the
face of the little Venable girl, when, to
our surprise, what should he do but
whirl suddenly and go charging hack
straight into the faces of his pursuers.
ut was all done in a moment. We
saw his saber flash upward; and we
heard woman scream: Don't kill my
brother and saw the saber lowered;
then there was flash of another steel
and Xanthus dropped from his horse,
just as we dashed up and surrounded
the two Venable boys.

her lover, weeping and trying to
staunch the flow of blood, while her
brothers stood by, mad enough to end
it all with her; but we took them all
safe into camp. OF course, we couldn't
do anything with the fellows-they
were only protecting their own. But
they had to consent to the marriage OF
their sister with Xanthus; for, as you
know, he did not die of his wound.

in fact, large per cent-of the town
people who keep fine fowls have subur-
ban homes, but the range is generally
measured by feet and not by acres. We
believe fully so per cent of all the poul-
try fanciers keep their fowls on or
binary town lots-usually on the back
end of the lot in pens of small size.
We have done so, and been successful,
too.
We have fowls in town on an ordi-
nary lot in pens from Is to 20 feet
square. The town chickens really look
better than the country chickens in
their large sized grassy runs. Why?
Because in the country we depend on
the grass in the runs for green food;
at this season it gets old and tough,
the fowls can't eat it and hence they
have no green food.
In town we grow little patches OF
oats, rye and mustard, pull it while
young, fresh and tender, and feed it to
the fowls daily. Result: Bright
combs and eyes, smooth plumage, eggs,
thrift and profit.
Early in the season we planted corn
and sunflower scatteringly in our culti-
yatable spots, and it is around and
about the corn and the sunflowers that
we grow the green stuff. Chickens like
such coverings and will work about
In them all day. We throw millet
seed in there for which they scratch.

Caerphilly Cheese.

Caerphilly cheese is made by sweet
curd process. The milk is set at about
Sc deg. Fair, and such milk should be
perfectly sweet. Add sufficient rennet
to coagulate the milk firmly in one hour.
Break down carefully as in Cheddar
cheesemaking, making the curd about
the size of large peas. StE for half or
three-quarters Of an hour. Let settle
about half an hour. The whey is then
drawn and the curd ladled out into a
clean cloth, and tied up, with little
weight-say IA pounds-placed upon it.
If large quantity of curd, no weight is
required. Cut up and turn each half
hour. At the end of about three hours
from the time the rennet is added, the
curd is broken up finely into the hoops,
where it stands for two hours or so,
when it is placed under the press,
gradually turning the screw and press
ing up to 10 cwt. at the end of three
hours. The first cloth used is fine. Turn
the cheese once during the evening into
the same cloth. Next day the cheese is
sailed on the outside twice, about u
ounce being used to each pound of curd.
Fine salt is best and after each sailing,
morning and evening, the cheese is re-
placed in dry cloths in the press with
about 10 cwt. pressure on. Press al
together for three days. The cheeses are
then taken to the cheeserooms, which
are kept about 65 deg. Fair. In these
rooms they are wiped each day with a
wet cloth. and should be ready to sell in
from 20 to 80 days.-London Dairy.

We Lose BY Fraud

In 1880 the United States exported
cheese to the value of $12, 10000. In
1894 the United States exported cheese
to the value of $7,1S0, 000-a decrease in
exports in fourteen years of 40 per cent.
! In 1880 Canada exported cheese to the
value of $3,900,000. In 1894 Canada
exported cheese to the value Of $15, 1901
000-an increase in fourteen years or
nearly 400 per cent.
! In Canada the manufacture OF filled
and skinned cheese is prohibited by
law, backed up by strong public senti-
ment. From the humblest cheesemaker
to the highest government officials the
energies of the people have been bent
toward honest, wholesome cheese and
worldwide markets.
! In this country, in marked contrast
with Canada, many people have been
working to produce cheaper cheese and
not better cheese. Within our own
state trade has been greatly injured in
past years by skinned cheese and more
been stopped by law. Illinois manu-
factures enormous quantities or nlled
cheese each winter, branding much Of
1t as Wisconsin goods, thus stealing
what should be good name and break
ing down our markets with fraud
product.
New York and Wisconsin are the
great cheese-exporting states. Wiscon-
sin is by nature the greatest cheese
state in the Union, made so by the nat
ural adaptation of the soil to nutritious
grasses, the pure waters and the cool
nights In summer time.
Our commonwealth has lost millions
Of dollars because of the laxness of our
own people in the matter of high quail
ity and honest goods, and now that re-
formation has come all our good acts
will count for little, so long as other
states make fraud cheese and brand
them Wisconsin made.
