Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gen.
tlemen This branch OF agricul-
ture has been assigned to me by
Major Lee. l accept it, though re-
luctantly assure you, as l sup
pose there are others within this
audience who know the response
bilities placed upon one who is not
in speech making. AS l come
from the every day labors OF the
dairy farm to deliver this my part
of the Institute work now being
built up by our worthy commits
sioner of agriculture and iIamigra-
ton, [ ask for your careful atten-
ton and sympathy. The first and
most important factor in this
branch of agriculture IS the per-
son who branches out from life
half spent in some other labors to
take up something that is leap
in the dark. From may years of
actual experience find that a per-
SON who does things by the halves
can never expect without disap-
pointment any of the good things
in store that / assure you can be
obtained in farm dairying, as it
requires an iron nerve and host
of energy to carry out all of the
many different things connected
and necessarily SO. No line of ag-
riculture requires more deep
thought and close attention than
the Farm dairy. l would not adj
wise any one to take up this branch
of agriculture without first study
ing the experience OF successful
dairymen which can easily be OBJ
tanned by subscribing to some re-
liable dairy paper, such as
Hoards Dairyman, the standard of
Dairy Science in the L. S., pub
lished at Fort Atkinsin. Some
few of the most important prob
lens that you will find in this bus
mess 1 will mention, such as the
kinds of feeds, and how to sue
{ cessfully feed it. A person might
think that because this or that
feed was a good producer of milk
and butter that he had the feeding
question down to perfection. But
far from it, as great many of the
different feedstuffs given in a larg-
er quantities are injurious to the
general health of the COW. A per-
SON that does not study the effects
of the feed given his COW should
never be entrusted with this part
of the dairy work. There some

ments; let US know whether you
were very young or middle-aged,
that we might know how your
inches were built up-and the suit
we'd send would fit as we'll as the
tailor's suit at first trying-on. Bet
ter, in all probability.
Now if you come for the clothes
it's better still, for we can do such
altering as the tailor would have to
do. In short. we can give you
really tailored clothes ready-made.
The popular price for dressy suits
(not full dress suits) is SIS. They
are such suits as almost any really
good tailor would charge $40 to $50
for. You see, it is vastly cheaper
to make clothing in lots-there is
economy of time. No waiting for
you to come and try the suit on
and talk it over.
The best suits are 500 to $25-
the difference is half and half
cloth and extra hand-work in the
tailoring.
The famous suit of the year at
this store is the all-wool fancy or
blue or black suit at Sc, so.
Almost forgot the OvERCOATS.
The dressy ones are $40 to 500.

Four Millions of Dollars in Spring
Stock.
Present stocks in the Philadel-
phia store alone exceed in value
-Four Millions of Dollars.
The goods were ordered when
days were darkest and money had
the utmost buying power. On very
many lines we could realize large
profit by holding the goods-for
higher prices will come as Prosper
ity's sun mounts higher-and that
regardless of what action or mac
ton occurs at Washington.
But we gather exclusively for re-
tail selling-never for speculation.
And in the face of higher prices we
name lowest prices ever known on
many lines of goods, simply be-
cause they have been laid in dur
ing depressed times.
The news concerns everybody
who can come or who will write
promptly. Aggregate lots are large,
but of course of some lots prompt
corners will quickly take our all.

terday, but 1 thought 1 would give you
one more chance; but you we're just as
stubborn as ever. I saw there was nc
more hope left.
This is a case of domestic trouble
which was brought about six years ago.
Not financial, because I had plenty OF
money. My dancing class was a sue
cess, but I did not pay any bills, be-
cause it was no use. I spent the money
on account of my home troubles. My
wife knew I made lots of money, but
she did not know where it went, and
never will. I said to her if she keeps
up her high temper she would be sorry
for it, but she did not care, and roasted
me almost every day, and made the ex-
pense very heavy. Every time WI had
a fuss it cost me 81 to $40 a fuss. l
managed to keep my life insurance paid
up. That I did on account of my pretty
little girl, Ruth. I am sorry that 1
have to do this for her sake, but it is
better for me. I can't live with her
mother.

League, you will be able to buy a horse
and carriage, plenty of dresses and
everything you want. 1 could have
done a great deal more for you if you
would only agree with me, but you ac-
cused me Of something I was not guilty
Of. You thought I was always giving
money to my sister, which was not
true"
At the Mittman home it was denied
that there had been quarrels between
the suicide and his wife. Mrs. Mitt-
man was too much Frustrated to talk,
but her mother, Mrs. Maria Mundt, who
lived with the Mittmans, said she and
her daughter were firmly convinced
hat Mittman had been insane.
Mittman was 80 years old and for
,any years had taught dancing. He
lught classes at Kretschmar's, C31
Iorth Clark street, and gave private
lessons at his home. He married Miss
Flora Mundt six years ago in the house
where the family still resides. For
about the same length of time he has
been employed by Bunge Bros. The
members of the firm say his accounts
are all right. Mittman has one child,
Ruth, who is beautiful, and seems to
have been almost worshiped by him.

his second action in 1898. she says. and
after a long trial before a jury in Cou-
dersport, Pa, a verdict was rendered
in her favor, allowing her $500 a month
alimony. He paid the alimony for a
few months, according to her affidavit,
but discontinued it after that, and since
that, she says, she has been living on
borrowed money, and owes a bill at
the Fifth Avenue hotel, in New York,
amounting to $500. Costello, it is al
legged, brought his action against ais
wife on testimony furnished by private
detectives in his employ, and he, with
one of the detectives, was arrested and
later indicted for conspiracy. Mr.. and
Mrs. Costello were married in 1881.

he threw a brick at her. She "dodged

Mrs. Costello furthermore accuses her

This Chicken Only Had Four Legs, Three
Wings and Two Tails, That's All.
-Four legs, three wings and two tails
comprised the unusual allotment doled
out to one brown Leghorn chicken
Matched among a brood Of a dozen at
the feed store of Lubben Bros, of Ala
media, Cal, this week. This most re-
markable freak of nature has attracted
widespread interest in Alameda and
for three days past the little marvel
has been the subject of a great deal of
curiosity, scientific and otherwise. The
chick broke its shell on Monday last.
The abnormal allowance of limbs did
not attract attention until the downy
little monstrosi:y commenced to move.
Then the surplus Of legs, wings and
tails was discovered. The little fowl
was able to at ease in all direc-
tons, and it's comfort was in no wise
impaired by the unsual number of
limbs scattered about it's tiny body. The
distribution Of the quartet of legs is pe-
culiar. Two are naturally located be-
meath the body. The toes of each pair
Of legs turn toward each other.

from the church lightning struck the
ferrule of the parachute, and descend
Ing from the stick, paralyzed Ayers
left arm. The young woman happened
to have hold-of his arm. The umbrella
dropped from Ayers hand, but when
the girl tried to release her arm she
could not. 1t was several minutes be-
fore they were able to part the linked
arms. Tiny dark brown scars were
left on each of their elbows.-Ex.

them back to Jail on his wheel. How
he does it he tells himself in the fol-
lowing language:
Some PEOPLE think my way OF
bringing a prisoner in is queer, but
that is because they do not know the
circumstances. I have been In this
business for four years, n after
thinking it over, made up my mind to
see what I could do with the bike. I
rugged up a step on the back OF the
wheel just like the ordinary rear one,
only bigger, and l was ready to try it.
I weigh ITS pounds and my wheel
weighs Is. That makes 200 pounds
for me to pedal along, outside of the
prisoner. l meant to say that I had
a rear step on each side of the wheel,
making two all together. found that
my scheme worked to a charm, and I
had a number of instances where peo~
pie thought the prisoner would get the
better of me. Folks said they should
think I would be afraid to risk myself
in the prisoners power to that ex-
tent.
II had to go out to Southmayd the
other night to get a man, and h.
thought he was going to have an cas-,
time to get away, but I showed there
was nothing of the sort in prospect for
him. AS a matter of fact, it is every
bit as safe to bring every prisoner in
standing on the rear step Of your wheel
as in any other way, and possibly
safer. If the fellow is on one horse
and you on another, he may make
some motion and get the better of you
before you car help YOURSELF; but if
he is standing On the step Of your BIZ
cycle, he's got to hold onto your
shoulders. 1t does not make a bit of
difference how dark a night it is, if
he goes to make the least unusual mo-
ticn o can feel him and you can
throw him off the wheel before he can
wink an eye. Before he can get up
| again you can cover him with your
gun, and there he is.
There were, as I have said, a good
many reasons that got me to think of
using the bicycle as I use it now, but
l guess the principal one is this: One
time I went out after a fellow named
Zeb Harmon, who was wanted as a
prosecuting witness in a certain case.
I found him nine miles out in the
country, and I found that he wasn't
very anxious to come in. He didn't
own a horse and couldn't borrow one,
and he swore he wouldn't walk.
Il was sort O. puzzled at first, but
finally l happened to think maybe he
could ride behind me on the step of
my bicycle, and l told him so. He
said he never was on a bicycle and he
couldn't ride one. I told him l didn't
know whether he could or not, but
just to try, and if he couldn't I'd let
him off from going to town. l guess
he thought that was a good way to get
out of it, for he hoped up behind me,
