Content With the Sentence.

Waverly Magazine: "Your worship
said the willy solicitor, who was de-
tending the stalwart prisoner in the
dock. you cannot possibly convict my
client of HOUSEKEEPING. 1 submit,
Sir, with all Difference, that neither
morally nor legally can you convict
him. I will tell you why.
s'Mr. Skies, here, as the evidence
CLEARLY proves, did not break into any
house at all. He found the parlor win
glow open, as the witnesses admit, and
San he did was to put in his right arm
land remove some unimportant ar
ticles. Now, sir, Mr.. Skies arm is not
he himself, and fail to see how YOU
can punish the whole individual for
an offense committed by only one of
his limbs"
Very we'll, Sir" said the cautious
Solomon of the bench, II have heard
of a similar defense before today, SO
find the prisoners arm guilty, and
sentence it to six months imprison-
ment. The gentleman himself can ac-
company it or not, as he chooses, Mr..
Clerk, record the SENTENCE
Then Mr.. Skies smiled a fourteen
inch smile, and the plan of the de-
Tense became apparent, as he quietly
proceeded to unscrew his guilty cork
arm and leave it in the custody of the
court.

TO the axle by three-eighth bolt. The
one-half wood screw three inches long
screwed into the crank. Tho lever that
works the pump is probably seven feet
long and is a two by four pine. Tho
fulcrum in all cases should be one-quar-
ter the length of the lever; then it will
not break the pump nor the mill when
struck by sudden gusts of wind or
when running at high speed. A weight
should be fastened to one of the fans
to balance the weight to some extent
of the plunger of the pump; how heavy
it should be can best be determined
by trial. Mine is about one pound;
the we'll being about &c feet deep it
does not take much power to lift the
water.
The wheel has eight fans. Many
make them with but four, but eight are
better, as 1T runs steadier in any wind
whether heavy or light. The box is
made just large enough for the wheel
to turn nicely. If made too large, 1t
does not work SO we'll. Set four two by
lOuI pine SSdHlliASS III ti1S EiOuAd W
nail the boards to with one on each side
of the wheel on top for the axle to rest
on. The box for the axle to turn in
is cut into the two by four, another
piece is held in place over the journal
by wood screws to hold it down. This
has run since '94 and has worn but lit
tie In that time. The wheel is never
kept from running whether occupied
to the pump or not, as to lock it when
not wanted for raising would be more
apt to break the wheel than to let 1t
run. Mr.. Brown says that ut takes n
stronger wind to run it than it does
q well-made mill of the standard makes.
i presume it is more useful here than
1t would be in other places, as our pre-
vailing winds are north and south; we
seldom have winds from any other d.
rection that would work any wheel.
The pump is more useful in seasons OF
drought than at any other time be-
cause we have severe drought here only
in seasons of high wind. Farm and

A CHEAP WINDMILL.
Constructed One mt an Expense
of just $3.50.

In the great arid west district sew.
eral enterprising settlers have bought
or fixed up various kinds of windmills
pumps, hydraulic rams, etc, and made
the dry, parched desert blossom as the
rose. One of the most enterprising of
these industrious people is j. l.. Brown,
of Buffalo county, Neb., whose go
devil" mill, illustrated herewith, was
made entirely by him of cast-otf farm
material except S1.5o for gas pipe for
axle. A similar mill can be made of
new material for five or six dollars.
This mill has furnished water since
1894 for house, stock and a tenacre
fruit farm.
Mr.. Brown mill fans are made of cof-
fee boxes and are two and one-half feet
wide, the wheel being nine feet in di-
aneter. Holes are punched in the gas
pipe axle to fasten the arms to. The

CAUGHT IN THE HURRICANE.
.camsi,ip Kansas City Narrowly
Escapes Being Wrecked.

Savannah, Ca, Aug. 2a.-The steam
ship Kansas City, which reached here
yesterday, fifty hours overdue, had Il
thrilling experience in the West In
dian hurricane and battled the storm
two days. Captain Fisher said it was
the worst storm he had ever cncount-
cred. The ship was driven 100 miles
off her course seward. The saloon
was flooded with water, the passengers
were wet, bed1ggled and sick, some
OF the women became hysterical. Most
of the passengers kept in their rooms
and those on the upper deck were un-
able to get out. The ship rolled and
lurched as the huge waves struck her
and broke over her decks. The doors
and windows were battened, but every
moment during the tiercest of the
storm it was feared the skylights
would be broken in and let the waves
through.
All the casualties were among the
officers and crew. Captain Fisher was
injured, though not seriously, by
fall. and First Officer Smith was
thrown against the deck and inter
Sally injured. Several coal passers
were injured and it was only by extra
efforts that they We're kept at work.

MARS At CLOSE RANGE.
How That Planet Looks Whom So.
100000 Miles AWAY.

st. Nicholas: All the monster
glasses with which the late rapid ad-
vance has been made in knowledge OF
our celestial neighbors have come into
being since the civil war. Until then,
In this country, the Harvard telescope
of fifteen inches was the largest.
About 1860 one of eighteen and han
Inches was ordered for the university
in Evanston, III. 1t is only since 1870
that really huge Instruments have
multiplied and are nightly turned
upon the starry skies to ask the ques=
lions which seem to our Impotence SO
slowly answered. But many answers
have come, after all, and some things
are clear which before could only be
surmised. For instance, we feel Quite
sure now that Mars has an atnos-
phere, though not more than half as
dense as our own; but far better than
none, as we can tell by looking at our
bright though dead and desolated
moon, from which air and water have
long since disappeared. And if Mars
has air, the polar caps alone would
seem to show that he has also ice and
snow; and there appear to be, as well,
areas OF water or marsh, though less
In extent than the land. The north
ern hemisphere looks brighter
through the telescope, even showing
tints of red and yellow, which astrono-
mers are inclined to think are chiefly
dry land, probably desert; while the
southern is dark, the seas brown or
oull gray, quite as water might APP
pear. These spots were first called
seas, like the smooth regions of the
moon, and the name continues in both,
whatever they may be.
In 1877 Mars was at his nearest to
us; near, that is, from an astronomers
point of view, though really at the.
enormous distance of $4,000, 900 miles.
Yet great deal was learned about
this neighbor in the slly--among 9th
er things that he is attended by two
tiny satellites or moons never seen
before. And the same year an Ital-
Ian astronomer, Mr.. schiaparelli pro-
nounced skeea-pa-r reilly, made careful
studies and drawings of the strange
markings on Mars, completing with
the fine telescope at Milan series of
elaborate sketches afterward com.
bined into an accurate detail map.
Again in 1892 and 1894 the earth and
Mars came near each other in their
fight through space, though some.
what farther than during the year
1877. And within the last few months
we have been once more in good po-
sition to observe each other. But we
are favorably placed because only I'M
der these conditions can we see the
north pole of Mars, and so much
more is known about his south pole
that there lis of course strong at.
traction in the mysterious north re-
gions. Only at this great distance is
the north pole graciously tilted to-
ward us, so he has been constantly
watched this spring, and so he will be
again in little over two years. Eight
years, however, will pass before the
Marian south pole can again be stud
led to good advantage; in September
OF 1909, too, all obesrvatories will be
on the eager lookout for news from
this fascinating planet.

Better butter can be made on tho
farm than at the creamery if the same
care is given. The managers of cream-
cries secure the best assistants to be
had, and they aim to put good butter on
the market. The advantage possessed
by the farmer who makes dairy butter
is that he can feed his cows on the best
foods, use more care and work with
cleaner surroundings. A large proper
ton of creamery butter is not uniform.
as the milk comes from many sources,
but dairy butter is injured in the
churning and manipulation of the
product by inexperienced persons.
