LIVING RENT FREE.
Philadelphia Man Who Went Broke
Because He Did Not Pay.

because ne D1u MOI ray
A Philadelphia man has lived ten
gears in a house for which he paid no
rent and no taxes. 1t belonged to the
gas company, and he had paid rent reg
ularly until the property of the compa-
ny was transferred to the city. He says
himself: 81 don't remember how long
1t is since l stopped paying rent. 1t
was when the gas Office was on 1th
street. l went there one day with my
rent and offered 1t to Mr.. White, who
had charge of the gas company's real
estate, but he refused to take it, and
told me that it was to be paid at the
city treasurer's Office in the future. l
took it up there and young man there
said he could not take 1t, as he couldn't

Encounter With a II ogue Elephant,


The following from Outing is the
native tracker's version of the death
of dangerous rogue elephant:
''The people saw us coming down,
and because we were alone and came
with haste they perceived that peril
was at hand. Therefore, men ran in
from their fields, and the inhabitants
gathered themselves together to offer
salutations. But Kummeens Sahib
listened not, nor took notice of offer
ings. With voice like great wind
he ordered them to fly, which they did
with alacrity, many taking refuge in
stone tower.
cat this time observed that the
Lord Kummeens had become very
calm, and when people prayed for him
on the tower, and called down bless
ings upon his head, he commanded
them to be silent without vehemence,
for this was a man indeed, one who
knew not fear, neither permitted in
reference. We stood in an open space
between the village shrine and their
gram deota, nor did it seem long be-
fore the elephant came. His pace was
swift after coming out from behind
the hills, because he expected to sur
prise this village; but, on ascending
the slope, and seeing nothing of what
he had been accustomed to behold
no terror-stricken, helpless crowd
uttering shrieks and lamentations-I
think that this astonished him, for he
pulled up and advanced slowly. The
light of battle shone on my Lords
face, yet he moved not, standing with
his gun poised, and beside him hold
ing the second one, useless if the first
had failed
Elephants do not see we'll, and
this, being confused, cast his eyes
about quickly, without at once per-
ceiving us. Soon, however, he looked
more attentively, and then a change
came over him. His ears cooked, his
trunk stretched itself out, his body
swelled with rage. By your soul,
Sahib, it was frightful to see how he
from whom all had fled resented being
met. But Kummeens Behadur stirred
no more than the peaks of Kylas. He
waited while the elephant charged
screaming down, until his upraised
trunk dropped in anticipation of seiz-
ing us, Then, when the forehead lay
uncovered, he fired; and as this beast
fell dead both tusks were broken off,
which. is something I have not seen
again, though it is copmon tS break

a Fatality Avoided.
ON, uhe pebtocrat, Goshen, Ind.

iFfon the Pebtocrat, Goshen, Ind.
When neuralgia is accompanied by a dull,
heavy pain near the heart, frequently be-
comihg' intense, 1t generally terminates
fatally, Mrs. Nancy Flynn, who lives neal
Goshen, Indiana, survived such an attac k
and her ADVICE is worth needing.
''In the fall of 49," she said, "I began
to have trouble with my heart. There was
a sharp pain in. my breast which became
rapidly worse. The doctor was puzzled
and put me under the influence of opiates.
These sharp attacks followed one another
Mt intervals and became weak and had a
haggsrd look. was constantly in pain,
seldom slept and had no appetite.
"At the end OF two years l was confined
to my couch most of the time and the doc
tors agreed that my death was only mat

1t is stated on good authority that
teventy-fve per cent. of the horses
that die each year are victims of collie.
During the spring the trouble is fire.
auent among farm horses, although it
is usually wind collie, but this may
turn into the nervous collie so gener-
ally fatal unless prompt and intelli-
gent treatment is given. The stomach
of the horse is peculiarly susceptible
to the changes of food that are fire.
quently made in the spring, and that
invariably causes an attack of indi-
gestion more or less violent. Any
change in food should be brought
about gradually, and so also should
radical changes in the work required
of the animal. 1t stands to reason
that horse lightly fed for two or
three months of winter with but little
work to do is not in fit condition to
put into the field for ten hours work
at heavy plowing. Give horses whole
some food regularly and according to
the work done by them. Keep them
from exposure to draughts Of cold air,
especially when very warm; give only
pure water to drink, and they are
practically insured against collie.
Should the collie attack the horse,
the following treatment will give re.
lief in most cases. An injection of
clear water of the same temperature
of the stable should first be given,
followed by pill made of five drains
of powered Barbados aloes, one dram
mercurious chloride and enough lin
seed meal to make a stiff pill with the
addition of little water. Rub belly
and flanks with coarse cloth or sack
ing if the animal is chilled. After
this treatment the horse should not be
worked or violently exercised for at
least twenty-four hours. If the at
tack does not succumb to this treat
ment it is sufficiently severe and dam
gerous to need the immediate services
of skilled veterinarian.

Ii young pigs have plenty of exer.
else and the right kind of food there
is no danger of over-feeding. A small
quantity of corn ground with wheat or
rye and middlings, and the whole
mixed with milk, is first-class food
for young pigs. The common field
varieties of peas are also an excellent
food for pigs, young or old. Sow at
the rate of two bushels per acre and
cover four inches deep, sowing after
the peas are planted three pecks of
oats per acre, well narrowed in, to
serve as support for the peas.
The food for pigs of all ages when
not being fatted should be that which
has bulk. Middlings, milk, ground
barley and swill for pigs, and for
shoats and breeding stock, fed in ad-
dition beets or other roots cooked and
mixed with cut clover hay. For
young pigs, ground oats with the hulls
sifted out is an excellent food. Have
part of the feeding pen so arranged
that portion of the grain food may
be scattered over it broadcast to give
the pigs exercises in feeding it. A
run of liberal dimensions should be
provided for young pigs if they are
kept in confinement, in order to get
the amount of growth from the feed
given to be profitable, otherwise lib
eral feeding will only result in an ex-
cess of fat before the formation of the
desired amount of bone and muscle.

Vacant Land in the United State.

Vacant Land in the United States.
The report of the Secretary of the In
terror shows that only little more
than one-half of the public domain of
the United States is either reserved or
appropriated. The area still remaining
vacant amounts to 591, ,343, ,9o3 acres,
without including Alaska, which is
supposed to embrace nearly 400,000,000
acres more. The entire area of the
United States is placed at 1,S35, OF ,692
acres. OF this, TAI, 7O2,365 acres is now

The amount reserved for schools, In

TELEPHONING AT SEA.
How Commanders Communicate by
Wire from Ship to Ship.

Wire from Ship to Ship.
Telephones may supersede the old
system of flag signals as a means Of
communication between ships at sea.
Successful experiments have been
made by Commander r. G. o. Tupper
of the British navy which seem to
prove that the system is adapted for
the purpose. Commander Tupper used
a kite in his experiments, and this
seems to be the only feasible means.
The kite used was an ordinary one that
differed but slightly from those used by
American boys in the spring and fall,
except that 1t had no tail. The kite was
six feet long and three wide at Its
broadest part. Two lines were at.
tached to the kite where the tail would
ordinarily have been. One of these
lines was retained on board of the Oar.
ing, the torpedo boat destroyer under
Commander Tupper's command, from
which the experiments were conducted.
1t was found that with the wind be-
tween the two lines 1t was easy to drop
letters or even a hawser on another
ship, and in this way to establish COM
munication. When this experiment had
proved successful Commander Tupper
made use of wire. The end of the
wire which the kite bore away from the
ship was dropped upon the deck Of II.
N. s. Dauntless, where 1t was secured
by the electrician of the ship and at
tached to a telephone apparatus in
waiting. The other end, which had re-
