THE LUNA ASSASSINATION STORY.

There appears 20 De great uncertainty
in Manila as 70 whether or not The story
Of the assassination of Gen. Luna. Of the
iusurgent army. is true. II it isn't true
il is difficult to understand why such
story should have been given currency
The suggestion that AguinaIdo has some
thing to gain by having. circulated re-
port that Gen. LIMA was assassinated
doesn't appear to be reasonable. The I'M
derstanding for some time has been that
Aguinaldo and Luna were not on the best
of terms-that Luna was insubordinate
The president Of the commission which
the President sent to the Philippines for
the purpose of making peace is reported
TO have said the greatest obstacle in the
way Of the commissions success was Gen.
Luna, who was bitterly opposed to the
acceptance of any terms which didn't in
eiude absolute Independence for the Fill
pinos
There is no doubt that Gen. Luna had
great influence with some of the Filipino
leaders, and it is admitted that he is a
bitter and uncompromising enemy of the
Americans NJ. Andre the Belgian consul
at Manila, now in Brussels on a leave Of
absence, declared a few days ago that
the death of Gen. Luna was a Godsend,
if the announcement of his death were
true He spoke of him as the soul of the
insurrection and the most sanguinary man
in Aguinaldo's army. He declared that. he
tortured Spanish prisoners and lived by
Instruction. In Consul Andres opinion
Gen. Luna was the principal obstacle to
peace.
II what Consul Andre says is correct. it
is pretty safe to say that Gen. Luna isn't
dead, because the fighting has been more
fierce since the announcement of his
death than it was at any previous time.
It will turn out, probably, that Gen. Luna
met with an accident of some kind, and
that reports concerning it were magnifed
into an announcement of his death. If he
were dead reliable news of the event
would probably have reached Manila be-
fore this time.

Bought HI. own Mascot.

There is a superstition of son.s i'm
portance among the Chinese that he
who saves a turtle by purchase and al
lows it to go free upon the sea will en-
Joy good fortune. In accordance with
this idea, a Chinese merchant bought a
turtle from a Malay fisherman for five
dollars. The purchaser proceeded to
scrape the back of the turtle so as to
prepare an even surface for his name
to be carved on the shell. when he dis
covered his name already cut in the
animals back. and then he remem-
bered he had made consignment to
the sea about year before. There
fore, he argued that the turtle was his
property, and he at once pursued the
Malay and claimed return of his
money. The fisherman very naturally
refused to refund, and the merchant
was obliged to keep the turtle. which,
in his rage, he killed, as being the cause
of loss to him of five dollars.

FEEDING SKIM MILK.
and InnictinE Upon Them In
digestion and Scours.

A correspondent writes asking some
advice as to how to feed young calves
on skim milk. The essential points in
growing calves on skim milk are that
the milk be sweet when fed, that it be
blood warm, that it be not fed in too
large quantities and that it be proper
~ supplemented with suitable meals
Cold and sour milk almost invariably
disturbs digestion and produces scours,
which may or may not result seriously,
but it is at best certain to interrupt the
growth and thrift of the calf. A great
many calves are injured by over-feed-
ing skinned milk. the effort being to
make up in quantity for the fact that
the milk is less nutritious than whole
milk. The better way to meet this OBJ
lection to the skim milk is to add corn
meal and linseed meal, that is, ground
linseed, to the milk. The proportion
of the inseed to the cornmeal may be
about one part to ten. The amount of
skim milk to be given will vary with the
appetite and age of the calf, but from
IL to 20 pounds per day is liberal guam
tity, and with sufficient addition of
meals, good calves have been raised on
considerably less than this amount.
When the calf is born it is best to give
whole milk at first. gradually substitute
ing skim milk, increasing the quantity
of the latter until it is all skim, in about
ten days or two weeks. For 80 days
feed an average of about one pound of
cornmeal per day. with one-tenth as
much linseed meal to each IL pounds of
milk, will be sufficient, the amount of
the meal being light in the early part
of the feeding period and gradually in
creased. Hay should be added as soon
as the calves can be induced to take it.
If it is difficult to get linseed meal
ground. boil the linseed to jelly and
add it to the milk in that way.-Live

The trouble with many wagon-jacks

that it takes the greater part of a mans
weight to raise heavy wagon because
