went on to the fishing camp. STRIPPED
did not appear in a reasonable time,
and they became anxious for him. He

enthusiastic lover of the British poet.
Mr.. Guild, who reports the conversa-

''Do you know the lines?" was de-

then followed it with the well-known
verses, beginning:

TWO MARTIAL POEMS.
When They Were K~cited 'Old Ironsides,' -
Proved the Most Inspiriting


Soon after the close Of the Civil War
Cassius NJ. Clay. T. c. Durant, OF the
unloni Pacific Railroad, Commodore
Boggs, Curtis Guild. the secretary of
the Russian Minister, and two other
gentlemen, were guests at little sup
per at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New
York. The conversation turned upon
Tennyson's Charge of the Light Bri-
gade," which one of the guests de-
clared to be the most martial poem
ever written.

pany, half IN jest. The rhythm is
faulty, and some Of the lines remind
me OF pumpkins rolling over a barn

Bones For Poultry.
rom the Poultry Age.

From the Poultry Age
 The bone cutter is as necessary to the poultryman as his feed mill It enables him to use an excellent and cheap food, and glves him a profit where he might otherwise be compell- ed to suffer loss. 1t is claimed that bone cutter pays for itself in eggs and really costs nothing Bones are now one of the staple articles of food for poultry, and no ratio should have them omitted They are food, grit and lime, all combined in one. and the hens will leave all other foods to re- ceive cut bone. If cut fine. even chicks and ducklings will relish such excel lent food, while turkeys grow rapidly on it. To meet with success requires the use of the best materials, and green bone beats all other substances as food for poultry.

FIGHTING THE FEE BILL.
HOW 1T WILL BE DONE.
First Move Made in the Contest
Against the New Law.

Nk&tItSI AIiC tNCW Law
The first move has been made in
the matter of testing the law passed
by the recent session regulating
the fees of county officers. 1t con-
sisted in the offering of a deed for
record and refusal by Recorder
Kingsley to accept fee computed
under the new law. The deed is
from Moses Londoner to Fanny
Cohn. 1t was offered for record
by G. s. Sinsel. The fee demand
ed under the old law was $1.20,
and the amount rendered under
the lew act was 80 cents.
The offer was made for the pur-
pose of testing the case. Now a
mandamus suit will be started
against the recorder to compel him
to accept the amount rendered
In his defense the validity of the
law will be attacked and the ques-
ton will be settled when the SUI
preme court shall have rendered a
decision.
In this matter the county Off
GERS of the state are generally CO.
operating, each contributing some
thing toward the expense of the
litigation. Some have not sent in
anything, but the officers are near
ly ali in sympathy with the move,
ment. Being at the capital, con-
venient to the supreme court, Mr.
Kingsley has been selected to APP
pear in the case as the representa-.
tive of the officials. J. II. Hawley
and w. E. Borah will represent
the officers in the contest.
The law will be attacked on The
ground of unconstitutionality anc
on the ground of not having beef
properly passed. One point raised
is that the bill cuts salaries of off
GERS down during their terms 0
Office. Another is that it places
limit not contemplated by the con
stitution upon the amount tina
may be allowed for the employ.
ment of assistants in the office Q
clerk and recorder.
The most serious ground of at
tack will probably be that the bill
was not properly passed by tn
house. It is stated that the meas
ure was pushed through unde
: suspicion and that the formality {
calling the roll on suspending ser
ton Is of article 8 was omitted
