To Bring Cows to Their Milk.

I have known several instances of
promising 2-year-old heifers that when
8 years old failed to come up to their
2-year- old record. They usually do bet
ter the next year. Why this failure the
second year cannot say, unless it is be-
cause they were overworked the first
year. Beyond good care and feed there
is very little that can be done to in
crease the milk flow. Kneading the I'D
der actively with the hands for several
minutes after each milking may stimu-
late an increased flow. The COW may
come to her milk after the next calving.
If she should fail, then would advise
sending her to the butcher. Rural New
Yorker.

said Lampkin "A 6-year-old child
could have thought of that.
Then the 6-year-old child would
have been far from the TRUTH" said the
detective. enjoying the game he was
playing, He held the piece of match
between the nail Of his thumb and fore
finger and extended it toward the doc
tor. You see. he began, that the
match has burned evenly all round; no
farther on one side than another"
THAT'S plain, replied Lampkin.
Hendricks returned the tiny bit of
wood to his pocket and took match
from his case and struck it.
Watch this" he said, and when
the match was half consumed he laid il
still burning on the ground. The fame
was Instantly diminished, for only the
top OF the match continued to burn.
Presently it went out, and Hendricks
picked it up. &c.," be said, with a
gratified smile. 1.-The unburned part,
owing to the moisture of the earth, is
longer where it lay against the sand.
When picked UP the match near the
body Of the dead man, it was living
fat on the sand as this one was lust
now.
$50 you know it was held unusually
long in somebody's fingers?' said Lamp
kin.
Il have still another proof of it.
"Whas 10 that?''
Hendricks took out his lens and held
it over the piece of match he had found
near the corpse.
IF you will look closely" he said,
you'll see slight indentations at the
very edge of the fire line on two sides
of it,"
II see," exclaimed Lampkin. "They
were made by finger nails.'
"Exactly,' returned the detective,
''and nails which were pressed down
firmly for some reason or other"
"You are simply wonderful" said
DR.. Lampkin admiringly. "But what
became Of the burned, charred part of
the match?''
"Good! You are progressing" cried
Hendricks, Shaping his companion on
the shoulder. II looked for it. 1t must
have chung little while to the cloth
ing Of the murderer, for I found it on
the walk half way between the body
and the spot where the tracks ended l
did not pick it up because it could be
of no use to me.
Lampkin's brow was contracted
thoughtfully.
"What do you deduce from the whole
match idea?" he asked
Absolutely nothing so far, ," replied
the detective. Later may see some
reason for person desiring to see the
face of man he has shot down in the
darkness and running the risk of being
captured in order to do So
''That much is certainly interesting,
replied Lampkin. "It looks little as
if he were in doubt as to whom he had
shot, doesn't it?''
Hendricks stepped from behind the
trunk. of a big tree to get view of the
spot where the body lay. '.
Il see quite crowd over there" he
said. 1T is Meynell, the coroner, and his
men. Let's join them. The inquest. l
understand from the chief, was delayed
so that might be present We got here
quicker than was expected, as if I'd

CHAPTER Nv.

The gardener was coming with Ben
ton. The old man was pale and trem-
bling with excitement
"Don't be frightened" said the de-
tectlve kindly. lit is not you I'm after,
but want you to help me run the vii
lain down. What's your name?"
"Wilson, sir; John Wilson. I've been
gardener here, sir, for''-
did you put this sand here yester-
day." interrupted Hendricks.
Eyes, sir. The master told me as
long as it was going Oh the drive in
front that l might as we'll put it in the
| walks to kill the crab grass. The sand
gets very hard, sir, when it has rained
on it, and it becomes almost the same
as cement"
"What time did you do it?''
about O. clock, sir haven't yet
finished the whole walk. The other
end''-
You used a wheelbarrow to bring
the sand from that pile up there and
you scattered it on with hoe?"
Eyes, SIR replied the old man won
deringly. "My shovel was carried off
in one of the carts. Master would not
allow the heavy cart wheels to cut the
turf here, and had to use my barrow. y
lyon stood on the sides and smoothed
the sand with a rake?''
Eyes, sir, but didn't know you was
here. p
Hendricks glanced at Lampkin and
smiled. "There's bang up compliment
for you," he said. Then he pointed to
where the tracks ended SO abruptly and
said to Wilson,: 49,
Have you been sweeping or raking
in this sand here since the body was
found?''
why, no, sir. haven't been down
here at all. They told us in the kitchen
that the policemen would not allow any
of Us to see the master.
''That certainly is very remarkable, I"
broke in Ralph Benton, looking at the
tracks. "Mr. Hendricks, where do you
think the murderer stood when he fred
at my father?"
Hendricks seemed not to have heard
the question. He was looking toward
the house.
II see some men coming" he said
"Ah, it is the chief and the coroneri''
He went forward to meet them, and
Lampkin saw him shaking hands with
the men and bowling.
"The jury for the inquest are gather
ing," said Ralph to Lampkin. ''I'll 60
to the house and see about where it will
be held. Will you go up, DOCTOR"
'"No, thanks" replied Lampkin.
"I'll wait for Hendricks. I see he is
coming. -" ...s
The chief and the coroner stopped to
speak to Ralph, and Hendricks came
back to DR.. Lampkin.
Il have just thought of something, :"
he said, pointing to the tracks near the
dead man. You see, they look as if
they came from the side gate -
"Yes. Then you don't think the
crime was committed by any member
Of the householder" replied the doctor.
Il can't see what that's got to do
with it," said Hendricks, stroking his
chin thoughtfully. "Ah, PM glad the
FUN is shining!" he said, STOPPING to-
ward the grass and sighting across the
level ground at the gate which opened

Hendricks led the way across the
grass to the walk.
'There you are," he said, pointing
to tracks in the sand.
"And coming this way, too" added
Lampkin.

Sheriff Hubbell Discourses Entertainingly
on the Situation in That Thriving City,
and Thinks the Democrats Don't
Out Much Ice.

Hon. Thos. Hubbell, of Bernalillo
county, who was in the city in an off
cial capacity, speaks enthusiastically of
the Republican situation in Albuquer-
que and feels confident that the city
election will ''go right" by a good ma
jority. The Republicans are well or
ganized and will doubtless put Mr.. f.
W. Clancy in the field for the mayorality,
while T. N. Wilkerson Is said to be the
best horse in the Democratic race. The
convention of the Democratic party
will be held on the Goth and of the Re-
publican party the 2sth. The Democratic
nominee to be is a high license advocate
and the issue is not acceptable to the
people of Albuquerque.
Mr.. Hubbell says: 1.-The present rev,
enues of the city are about SIG, 900 and
the high license plan would reduce them
to $4,000, necessitating a heavier city
taxation and probably working a hard
ship on the various departments that

tend to place Albuquerque on a par
with other metropolitan cities of a like
population. For q time the city would
lapse back into primal methods of gov
eminent and that Is least to be desired
by the progressive element. No, the
Democrats don't stand a ghost Of a
show, and their attempt to worship
temperance ideals at the expense Of
the city will be turned down. Uncom-
mon satisfaction is expressed regarding
Judge Crumpacker and Prosecuting At
torney I. A. Finical. Everybody speaks
Of the judge in terms of the highest
commentator. He is quick to grasp a
point, loses no time over technical in
vestigations, and will not be ~bull-dozed
by anyone. The judge was one Of the
prominent railway attorneys of Indiana
prior to his residence here. l regard
Mr.. Finical as one of the rising young
men of the territory. He Is a brilliant
young fellow. But, to revert back to

GRANT COUNTY CATTLE INTERESTS,
An Arrest for Stealing Cattle Large Sales
the Past Ten Days-High Prices
Prevail.

E. E. Burdick, of Deming, has been
arrested for cattle stealing. From what
could be learned of the case 1t seems
that Burdick some time since sold the
90 brand of cattle to J. N. Upton, re-
tanning a lien upon the herd and giving
a contract of sale, but no bill of sale I'M
til the final payment Is made. Upton
delivered to Burdick in part payment
another herd and brand of cattle and
has contracted to sell a portion of the
90 herd, sufficient of the proceeds to
be paid to Burdick to extinguish the
debt and lien held by him. To all
of these transactions Burdick was an
acquiescing party. Upton has frequent
ly been informed since the trade was
made that Burdick was appropriating
to his " use, numbers of the cattle
transferred to Upton. On Monday last
Upton learned that Burdick had taken
four bulls and two COWS belonging to
the 90 brand and after branding
them was driving them to his range on
the Upper ella. Upton had a warrant
issued for the arrest of Burdick, and in
company with a constable followed the
trail and caught up with Burdick above
Georgetown. He had the cattle in his
possession when found.
A. II. Thompson, of Deming, on Mon
day closed the deal with Volney Rector
for his entire brand, amounting to about
$500 head, at $40 per head for every
thing branded. Mr.. Thompson buys for
