How a Robber was Killed.

The west bound Sante Fe overland
train which was held up seven miles
east of Peach Spring, Arizona, Monday
night, arrived in Los Angeles Tuesday
night. Pullman Conductor Shoales
said the robbers held the Waterman at
Nelson, six miles eust Of the Springs,
under guard four hours waiting for the
train. Alexander g. Summers, the
express messenger who killed one OF
the robbers, said that when he found
the train was being held up opened the
chr door cautiously and c'awlcd out
and hid under the car. While there

that thi. man carried the outlaws
stock Of dynamite. Soon as the rob-
Der vas shot the other two ran down
the track. They called their compan.
ion, but finally left with only nine
registered packages. None Of the rob-
bers attempted to open the safes in
the express car. Albert s. Grant, mail
clerks said that the robbers demanded
admittauce to his car, through the
engineer. He obeyed their commands
and while the other robbers covered
him and the engineer with Il gun he
helped himself to nine packages OF
registered matter.

PIGS ALONG SHORE.


Pigs like fish, and pigs raised along
shore owned by fishermen get plenty of
fish TO eat Sometimes fish is fed to the
fish to clear them of scurvy. Horseshoe
crabs are often fed to pigs, the crabs be-
ing cut clear of the shells so that the
pigs can get at them easily; the pigs
like horseshoes.
Often around salt water creeks min
nows are caught and dumped into pig
pens by the bushcl. Many fish have
hard, sharp, projecting spines that
might stick in the pigs throat. When
fish of this sort are fed the spines are
first cut off, and only the bodies and
tails fed. One of the names of the
American sole is hog choker.
Other food is fed along with fish, and
fish is mover fed to the pigs before kill
ing time; it would make the pork taste
flshy. Pigs will eat soft clans. Down
Ray of Fundy way pigs go out at low
tide and root up mussels. There, where
the tide rises 40 or so feet, and comes
I'm with great suddenness, it is neces-
sary for the pigs to be on the alert, and
they are. They hear the first sound
of the coming tide wave and turn and
scampcr for the shore, and even then
they get there none too soon, occa-
sionnlly.-N. y. Sun.

down beside me and hung on for dear
life.
1.-The aeronaut above me apparently
knew nothing of what was going on
below his car, for the drygoods and
house-furnishing circulars continued to
nutter down past me in undiminished
quantities.

an upright position. The balloon was
rising steadily, and there was no more
Jerking aud apparent motion to the rope

for me TO cling to it.

BUSINESS JUDGMENT.
IT IL Necessary to Make POULTRY
Keeping Success.

II TX Necessary to Make Poultry
Kccpinr II Success.
If farmers and poultrymen generally
would use more business Judgment
they would be more successful. 1t Is
not only necessary to send fresh eyes
to market, but they should he well
sorted in the crate as to color and SIZE.
Furthermore, they should be clean.
Dirty eggs and all varieties oil shapes
and colors will not attract the eye OF
the BUYER, says the Homestead. In
these days of close competition one
cannot be too careful about the man-
ner in which shipments are made. II
is the same with dressed poultry. FOUL
try should have a plump and tempting
appearance, free from pin feathers
and absolutely clean. The head and
feet should have clean and fresh look.
One reason why scalded poultry never
sells well in market is on account OF
the pale, shrunken look OF the head,
giving it sickly look. Another good
business principle is to serve the mar
<et according to her demands. II she
wants white eggs uon snip Drown; anu
if she wants brown, don't force white
shipment on her. Your broilers would

your ROSTERS would have slow sales IL
broilers were asked for. There are so
many little things that must be con
sidered. How to market is indeed inn
portant, but when to market is Fact
that must be closely studied. Waiting
for holidays has made much eisappoint-
ment. There are too many waiting for
those events. The man who markets
ket is generally the one who comes out
the best. And he who is enabled to
market once week the year round has
the greatest success.

And in twinkling he had made a

down, moose end first, through the wick

HINTS FOR BEEKEePERs.

Protect the north and west sides of
the bee hives.
If colony is found queenless unto
ii with queen that has colony.
Many bees are lost when taking q
clearing flight early in the spring.
Bees consume large quantity of
water after they begin to rear brood.
If bees have no convenient watering
place, one should be provided for them,
Examine the hives, and il you do not
find brood in all stages it sa sign that
the queen is dead
More spring dwindling results from
putting the bees out too soon than from
any other one cause.
BY feeding now, the bees will breed
more rapidly, thereby increasing the
force of the working bees.
One of the best ways of uniting col
onies is to set one hive over the other
and let the bees mix at will
1t is best to contract the entrances to
the hives in early spring until the
weather becomes warm and settled.
In case the queen is dead take frame
of brood from another hive and the
bees will soon rear queen for them
selves.
In all feeding care must be taken not
to spill the feed about the hives. 1t
may, and generally will, induce rob
bing
TO introduce strange queen into
hive put her into a queen cage, cover
her with sugar paste and lay on top Of
the frames.
Cutting OFF edges of the comb or cut.
ting holes in the same where there are
eggs or larvae just Matched will almost
always insure the starting of queen
cells.
Better queens can be secured II we
wait for the queen cells to be started
naturally by the bees under the swarm
ing impulse by early feeding and adj
ing brood this period can be hastenea.
