A TERRIBLE MISTAKE,
Misunderstanding Between Guards
Resulting in the Death of One.

Dewitt, Jan. ia terrible mis-
take which resulted in the death of
Deputy Sheriff James Silvers occur
red at the jail here. There is con-
fined in the Jail at this place a man
by the name of John Moss, who is
under Indictment for cattle steal
ing. 1t was rumorcd about that
Moss friends we're going to make a
raid on the Jail and release him.
Deputy Sheriff ], B. Robinson aud
James Silvers were guarding the
jail one being stationed on
one side and one on the other.
There was an understanding be-
tween them that neither was to
cross a certain line. BY mistake
Sllvers crossed the line agreed upon
and approached the place where
Robinson was stationed When
within about forty feet of Robinson,
Robinson asked who it was. Silvers
failed to reply, but doubtless think
ing it was some one else, cooked his
gun. Robinson heard the click Of
the lock and fred, the ball entering
Silver's body, from which he died in
about three hours. The night was
very dark and the fatal shot was
fred from the direction OF the noise
of Silver's gun.
Every one regrets the sad occur
renee, but no one more than Deputy
Robinson, who fred the fatal shot.

THE RUSSIAN THISTLE.

A Farmer Tell. of ITS Use Ray.
Louis p. Cummins. one Of the largest
farmers and stock raIsers in Nebraska,
living near Rushville. says in regards
to the Russian thistle as a feed for
stock as follows:
MY first use of the thistle was last
winter, when I fed it alike to horses
and cattle. Though at first little shy
they soon learned to eat it with avidity.
I found that cattle of all ages. includ-
ing the young calf just beginning to
eat hny. will eat the thistle and grow
fat on the weed. During the present
winter my horses and cattle have fed
mainly on thistles gathered from my
own place. which I started rs fodder
early in the fall. The stock even fed
to advantage on thistles as they stood
in the field, hut believe that much of
the nutritious element of the weed is
lost by leaving 1t in the weather When
in February the stock could no longer
feed on the thistles in the geld. be-
cause Of the weather. l began fodder
ing them from thistles which had cut
and stacked in the open on August 81.
1897. 1t is proper to note that this
date is rather late for harvesting
thistles for fodder, as the weed be-
comes old Mt that time and the thorns
become brittle enough to stick Sc
verely. During the present winter I
have fed thistles to n large number of
young stock of all kinds and I find
them the equal of anything can pur-
chase. The stock seems to find some
thing especially appetizing about the
thistle, and lick the very chaff from
the ground. As healthful. milk pro
ducing feed l believe the thistle has
no superior.
Il do not contend that the thistle
will become substitute for other feed
for stock, but 1 do believe 1t will be
more generally adopted than any other
food In the western states. Its prolific
growth commends II In the first place.
Still, on deserted lands 1t does not
thrive rs in n cultivated state. l have
cultivated some In rows three feet
apart and find that 1t reaches more
than double the size of the wild weed.
This peculiar weed flourlshes as abun-
dantly during severe droughts as Mt
other times and really believe that 1t
grows more luxuriantly during dry
weather. 1t should be cut when 1t
blossoms and stacked In all cases while
yet partly green, ns It Is extremely
difficult and disagreeable to handle
when perfectly dry. I regard the ad-
vent of the Russian thistle to this par-
ticular locality as n boon of no little
consequence and its future is full Of

be the last straw to ruin the business.
This year 100000 head of fat lambs
will have been shipped from Larimer
county to the eastern markets, which
means 1000 carloads. For each car
load the railroads now receive $ti5 from
the point of first shipment to the Mis-.
souri, river. and $40 car for transit
charges. Beyond the river the shnrp
railroad competition gives the feeders
low enough rates, but It is totally out
Of the question for the feeders to buy
lambs and take the chances of PAYNE

under the present rates some feeders

only 10000 came from Oregon. Idaho

looks more certain than ever. They

L. A war OF determination has been
started by the State Horticultural So
ciety against the cOdling moth which
is destined to remove the pest from the
orchards of the state.
Mrs. NJ. A. Shute, secretary of the
state board. has received letter Of In.
structlOns from w. s. COburn, presi-
dent of the board. OF Hotchkiss. The
pest destroyed small portion Of the
crop last season, and President Coburn
says 1t IL time to act now to prevent
repetition and a further propagation
Of the pest. A..
The codling moth. or apple worm, is
very common In older apple countries.
and In some sections about one-fourth
Of the crop is usually wOrmy.
In some years the crops in the older
states are entirely destroyed, and 1t is
always the exception when the moth
does not do some damage. ~ L.,
In Colorado, says Mrs. Shute, 1t 10
the rare exception to find a wormy ap-
pie. and the society will use every en-.
deavor to keep up the reputation Of the
state In this respect.
70 this end President Coburn gives
the following remedy, which Is said
to be alike efficaciOus and inexpensive:
For codling moth. or apple worm.
scrnpe all rough bark from the trunk
and large limbs: clean out all cracks
and crevices In the forks of the trees;
destroy all old birds nests or other de-
bris that might be harbor. Then
wash with one pound of concentrated
lye to six gallons of water-apply with
an old broom, whitewash brush or
swab. This should be done while the
trees are dormant, before the worms

them before they do any damage. This
will leave the bark smooth and
healthy, and Is very beneficial.
When the trees bloom and the bios
SONS fall, spray with London purple
or Paris green. one-fOurth pound to
.forty-five or. fifty gallon barrel Of
water, with two'pOunds of fresh slaked
lime. and repeat this in eight or ten
days.
About June 10 to u. apply cloth or
burlap bands around the trunks Of
trees, and fasten with a large-h headed
tack, which can be easily and quickly
removed and replaced. Examine and
kill nll worms every eight or ten days
until September 1; after this time they
remain dormant until early spring. and
can be cleaned up any time after the
crop is gathered. BY following these
directions. 05 per cent. of apples and
pears will lie free from worms.
Remedy for Brown Mite, Scale In

mixture for spraying when the trees
are dormant only. Fresh slaked lime,
fifty pounds; sulphur. twenty-five
pounds: rock salt, eighteen pounds.
Put the sulphur and one-half the lime
in twenty-five gallons of water and
boil until the sulphur Is thoroughly
dissolved: mix the remaining salt and
this to the first and boil for one hour:
then add water to make 100 gallons;

THE KAISER AND CAR.
An Analytical Study of Two Firm.
Friends in Europe.

Berlin, September 27.-By a plan, long
cherished in the heart of both, the Emper-
or of Germany and the Gar of Russia at
Wiesbaden, the middle of this month, there
to discuss their national plans and enjoy
a reunion and good fellowship such as ex
lists between no other two rulers in Eu-
rope, nor between any other two scions of
royalty, for the friendship between the
car and the kaiser passeth that of broth
erly love and is akin to that born by Da-
mon for Pythias, such kinship of feeling as
rarely is found upon this earth.
The exact relationship between the car
and the kaiser is difficult to state, so COM
pllcated are royal marriages. The mother
of the kaiser is the Empress Frederick. She
is the sister of the Prince of Wales. The
Prince of Wales married Alexandra of
Denmark; and Alexadra's sister is the
mother of the car. To define the kin 1t
may be decided that the kaiSer's aunt by
marriage is the own aunt of the car, this
making them cousins. But the car mar
ried Alice of Hesse who was an town. or
first" cousin of the kaiser; and again
they are related. Then there are other
ties, through the other side of the family
but this is sufficient to show that the same
family blood finds its way Through their
veins.
Yet in no way are these two royal cous-
ins alike. Take the external view. The
car of all the Russians is slender, PALE
narrow ohested and without muscle. He
