beets have been experimentally grown
during the past season in many locali-
tiles where there is no market for them
for the purpose Of making sugar, no
factory being at hand. ~ profitable
use for the crop from the many small
plats that have been grown will be
found by using them as feed for live
stock. The amount Of nutriment con
tanned in the beet Is not large, but this
is true Of all roots and tubcrs. The
value OF beets, however, rs "a food Tor
live stock is largely in excess Of that
which chemical analysis shows. Their
beneficial effect upon the digestive
organs during that period when dry
feeding Is the rule is we'll known to all
who have given the subject any atten-
ton, and they are found more nu.
%tritiotIs than mangles, carrots or ruta-
bagas, while the large amount Of sugar
they contain increases their palatabil-
ity. They are especially valuable for
sheep and milk cows, and noticeably
improve thrift whenever used, nor
have they any injurious effect upon
milk, which cannot be said Of some
other of the roots. Those who have
grown sugar beets, therefore, in small
quantities by way OF experiment,
should store them carefully for winter
feeding and thus make for themselves
an opportunity to- continue the expert

When the sugar beet industry be-

BIG HAUL OF GRAIN.

Railroads Bring Chicago Over 5000
Cars in One bay.
The roads running to Chicago from tho
West and Northwest are doing the largest
business they have ever done before at
this season of the year. Monday was n
record-breaker. Over 5000 carloads Of
grain were brought in by the Western
roads. This means over 100000 tons Of
grain in one day, or more than three times
as much as the ten east-bound roads took
from the city during the whole of last
week. Of the above mentioned 5000 car
loads CT grain, $500 carloads were corn.
The Burlington brought in LOO cars and
the Rock Island over 900 cars, and thew
ran short Of rolling stock.
While the lake lines took out of CHICAGO
last week nearly 100000 tons of freight
the largest amount on record-the Chica 90
east-bound roads are carrying no more
through freight than they did at this time
last year. The reason is the rates charged
by the railroads are higher than the traffic
will bear.
Total shipments Of -four, grain. and nro-
visions from Chicago through to seaboard
points and for export by the ten east
bound roads last week amounted to "a a4a
tons, against 40, 153 tons for the waak
previous and 41,117 tons for the CORE
spending week last year. Flour shipments
last week were 2,510 tons, against s 3os
tons last year; grain, &c, 4SS tons. against
2O,S51 tons; provisions, 1851 tons
against i, 03e tons.

Unaccustomed Garments.

Some amusing stories are told of the
time when the women of the japanese
court were ordered to appear in Euro
pean garments. Things were put on
upside down or wrong side out. What
struggle the wearers of the flowing
kimono must have had with the French
corset, and high-heeled slippers! But
with stoicism born of centuries of
calmness and placidity they made no
outward or visible sign of the misery
they endured in the unaccustomed
garments. The majority of the women
did not adopt European garments will
ingly; they were compelled to do so by
a proclamation from the empress, who
declared that the change in the life
and habits of the people, particularly
that from the sitting and kneeEng eti-
quette Of the Orient to the standing
ceremonies Of the Occident, required
this change in the fashions of women's
dress as we'll as that of men. No ig-
noble dressmaker was allowed to touch
the sacred person Of the empress her
self; and she was unable to make the
change in her own apparel until one of
the handsomest and most accomplish
ed women at court came to the rescue.
and had the garments fitted to her until
patterns could be made

FEARS FOR M'KINLEY.
Letter of Warming Received by the
Mayor of Columbus.

L.
Mayor of Columbus.
Ono incident Of the Presidents visit to
Columbus and the Ohio State fair was
nanufa ctured into a sensation. This was
the report of plot to assassinate the
Chief Executive in the capital of his ma
five State. A few days ago Mayor Black
received through the mails an anonymous
letter, reading as follows:
.Be on your guard. There IS plot
against Mckinley to make way with him
because he appointed Powderly. Inns
plot is not in favor of anarchy. They are
for organized labor and against mon
opoly."
It was believed that the letter was
written either by some crank or by a
practical joker, but Mayor Black deemed
it wise to take every precaut1on looking
to the Presidents safety.
The result was that during his stay the
President was very closely guarded py
the police authorities of the city. All the
detectives belonging to the local f"rce
with the visiting sleuths from other cltles
were detailed to act as speclal Dou.
guard and upon the arrival OF the fresl-
dents train the officers in plain clotnes
surrounded the President and escorted
him to his carriage, on either Sue VI
which when the parade moved marched
four detectives and the chief of police
himself. No one was allowed to approach
the vehicle during the parade and upon
the arrival of the party at the hotel the
nolice formed a Gordon clear to the eleya-
tor through which the President passed:
During the reception and during all the
SUBSEQUENT exercises Of the day the Pres
ident found detectives constantly at his
elbows. He observed the extraordinary
vigilance of the police and finally asked
an explanation, which was given him by
Mayor Black, who also showed him the
letter. The President merely observed
that he did not believe anyone wanted to
do him harm. However, he warmly
thanked the Mayor and Director Williams
for the precautions they had taken to con-
serve his safety.

MINERS ARE BLOWN TO BITS.
Coal Dust Explosion in Sunshine
Shaft, Near G1enwood, Col.


Eleven Italians and one American
workman were instantly killed by an ex-
plosion in the Sunshine mine, sixteen
miles southeast of Glenwood Springs. Col.
The explosion filled the mine with
smoke and dust and for some time it was
thought that the loss Of life had included
all of the workmen in the mine. It was
an hour before the Workmen in adjacent
mines were able to go into the Sunshine
property. Then it was found taat the loss
OF life, heavy as it was, had been confined
to one chamber. The miners in the other
parts of the mine were soon released. 1t
is thought that too many blasts resulting
from the incessant work had filled the
chamber with coal dust which was ex-
ploded by the blowout. 1t is also report
ed that there was barrel of powder in
the chamber.

Vast Quantity of Yellow Metal Com
ing from the Yukon.
John B. Brady, Governor of Alaska,
has sent Secretary Bliss personal letter,
in which he gives some interesting facts
about the rush for the INlondike region.
Gov. Brady has been identified with Alas
kan interests most of his lifetime, and is
known to be very conservative in his opin-
ions. Writing from Juneau, he says:
steamships are passing daily for Dyea
and Skaguay loaded to the utmost with
passengers and supplies. The news just
out of Klondike by reliable men is calcu-
lated to raise the excitement to higher
pitch. The shipment of dust by the mouth
Of the Yukon will be all of two and one
half tons.
Rich finds have been made we'll up on
the sides of the mountains, and the old
saying that gold is where you find it and
silver runs in veins seems to be empha-
sized in that district. A conservative es-
innate is that there are 5000 men at
Skaguay and along the trail on the White
Pass.
But a few only have gone over this
pass with their supplies, and only small
per cent. of the number can get across
Some parties are dividing, and will try to
send one over with supplies, while the 9TH
ers go into camp until spring.

fellows, and | greatly admire them as
see them talk and walk. A country can

LEAPS TO DEATH.

Chicago.

w. Russell Ward Killed I'm Route TO
Chicago.
w. Russell Ward, the Englishman who
came first into the glare of publicity by
clipping from Los Angeles on the last day
of June with the wife of Millionaire John
H. Bradbury, drew attention to himself
Thursday morning for the last time by
casting himself through the window of a
Pullman sleeper on the Northwestern
overland flyer. He met instant death. His
suicide was undoubtedly due to insanity.
After locking the stateroom door at 8
o'clock to exclude the watchful porter, to
whom he had betrayed symptoms Of men
tai arrangement, Ward pulled himself
through the window of the toilet-room
connecting with his compartment, and in
his mad desire to escape from the assail-
ants he believed to be bounding him dash
ed to his death. His body, clad only in
scant night attire, was found at daylight
lying beside the tracks at Wheatlands,
Iowa.
Discharged from jail on Thursday, Aug.
26, he left San Francisco Monday night
with the avowed intention of going at
once to England to plead forgiveness Of
the wife he had wronged and deserted.
The evidences brought out by his actions
during the days Of his trip across the
country are ali to the effect that in the
solitude of Imprisonment his mind gave
way under the strain of mingled passion
and remorse. A telegram he sent during
the last day of his life proves the exist
ence in his demented mind Of these two
conflicting sentiments

Arizona Moonshine-s WayIay Posse
of United States Deputies.
Six men were probably massacred in
the wilds of the mountains Of Pope Coun-
ty, Ark. Two were killed outright, two
were fatally wounded and left for dead
and two have mysteriously disappeared
and ale either dead Or being held captive
by the bloodthirsty bandits who commit
ted the awful crime.
The victims were all officers, United
States deputy marshals and deputy sher-
ifs, and the men who did the awful work
of carnage are moonshiners of the boldest
and most desperate class. The scene Of
the bloody crime was gulch or ravine in
the mountains Of Pope County at an iso-
lated spot thirty-ive miles from Russell
vile, the nearest telegraph office, and ten
miles from Will Springs. The region has
for years been the favorite rendezvous for
counterfeiters and moonshiners and dis
trict in which no lawabiding citizen could
live.
Marshal Taylor, with his posse, located
a large moonshine outfit Saturday night
and decided to make the raid Sunday in
daylight. Proceeding slightly in advance
Of his men, Taylor was within thirty feet
Of the distillery when he was suddenly
fired upon from ambush and instantly
killed. AS Dodson ran up to Taylor he was
also shot dead in his tracks. Rifles began
to crack in all directions and terrific
volley was fired into the officers. Two
fell mortally wounded and lay by the road
side until later in the day, when traveller
named Pack CHANGED by. All traces of the
bandits had disappeared, as we'll as two
of the deputy sheriffs.

OF the reserves of the second army corps
and also summoning TO the colors the
whole contingent of 1897. The Turks
believe that war with Greece will break
out sooner or later. and they are nurs-
ing themselves with the belief that if

powers friendly to Turkey. the armies
of the Sultan will be permitted to cross
the Greek frontiers of Macedonia and
Epirus when the right moment arrives
and push on to Athens, thus wiping the
poor little kingdom of Greece off the

restraints put upon the Turkish COM
manders of the Greek frontier. They
have been instructed not to cross the
Greek frontier ut present under any
circumstances, not even if attacked. The
whole blame for an outbreak of hostili-
ties must be thrown upon Greece. That
is the program and then who can forbid
the Turk from chastising the little king
don? But there are slips between cups

5000 FLOOD REFUGEES.
Committee is Kept Busy Providing for
Their Wants-iyhe River Stationary,
but the Rise at Cairo Still Threatens.

MemT.nis, Tenn, March 24.-The river
bulletin issued by the weather bureau
tonight, announces a slight fall in the
river at Memphis, a tenth of foot. This
has been the record for the past three
days, including to-day. The gauge reg
listers 36.S feet. The bureau predicts
for the next "a hours the river will re-
main about stationary. The fact that
the river continues to rise at Cairo is
sufficient evidence that no considera BILE
fall may be expected in the immediate
future.
The situation regarding the flood re-
mains practically unchanged since yes
terday. The levees below the city on
the Mississippi side still remain intact and
will probably be able to withstand any
further rise. The work of the relief COM
mittee continues without abatement. The
committee is Kept busy providing for the
wants of the 5000 destitute people who
are here dependent upon charity. The
relief boats are still bringing refugees
to the city though their number, of
course, is not as large as during the first
few days following the overflow. News
has been received by United States En-
gineer Fitch that the levee on the Arkan-
sas side has broken in two places below
Memphis, at Dawson, which is about 13S
is aboutmiles below Memphis, and one
| miles below Memphis, and one not far
| below Modoc. Engineer Fitch, has sent
a boat with barges and skiffs for the as
| sistance of the people in the country
| affected by these breaks. The details
| concerning the break at Dawson are
meagre. The break near Modoc was not
| unexpected as the leyee seems to be weak

prevent such disasters
