ARE BUYING PIANOS.
Evidence of the Prosperity of Kan
sas Farmers, Says Paul Morton.

Paul Morton is authority for the
statement that the San Fe road has
shipped more pianos and organs over
its lines into western territory In the
last three months than have been ship
ped over that line since 1898.
When the farmers of Kansas and
Nebraska are buying pianos, there is
something good the matter with those
states. An Illinois firm has shipped
1000 buggies and wagons to the state
of Nebraska alone the last six months.
Today the Erie starts q daylight spe-
cial pIacarded train for Binghampton,
N. Y. the distributing point, for six
teen carloads of pianos and organs
manufactured in Chicago. This Is only
q part of the indications of good times
at hand It is an example OF the best
news of the rail ways that there is to-
day, and it is just such things as this
that are making railroad men feel
pOOd.-EX.

More Railroads

Railroad men here say that mex,
year will see Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory covered by network oil
railroads. The work has been given q
good start this year, and next year will
see it's completion. J
Both the Santa Fe and Rock Island
roads have several surveying parties
in Oklahoma and the Indian Territory.
and lines are being run practically
over the entire extent of country.
These SURVEYS will be latter referred
TO the engineering department and
executive officials, and the routes OF
extensions mapped out. Both roads
have now parallel lines from
the Kansas to the Texas line
these main lines will have
many spurs before the end OF next
year.
The development of Oklahoma and
the Indian Territory is showing the
richness of that sectiou OF country, and
the railroads see profit ahead In taking
care of it Besides it's agricultural
prod uctioos, much mineral wealth lies
in portions of the territory.-Ex-

TallOW TreeR.

There are three kinds of trees from
which tallow candles can be made, anC
each Is named the tallow tree. One
is the Stillingia sebifera, the latter
word signifying "tallow-bearing." II
is native of China. Each Of its
fruits is about half an inch in diane
ter and has three seeds, which are COW
cred by kind of wax, used there for
making candles. They are boiled in
large caldrons, and then sufficiently
bruised to enable the fat to be re
moved, without breaking the seeds.
and pressed. The candles made from
this wax are coated with insect wax
to prevent them from melting in hO'
weather. Another tallow tree is tbs
Vateria indica. 1t grows in the West
ern Ghauts Of India, up to 1000 fee
above the sea. 1t is a large ever

Sex In Sheep.

Experiments in controlling the sex
among sheep have reached such a stage
in France that the experimenters have
reached the conclusion that this can be
done to an appreciate extent. The
rule seems to be that to produce the
most males in a flock the ewes must
be bred to rams over four years old,
the average of observance in such
cases being fifty-five males to thirty
five females. When yearling rams were
used with ewes ranging from two to
four years the average was but tnlr-
ty-five males to females. Yearling
rams, it has also been found in
experiments carried on in this coun-
try, but without the careful observa-
ton exercised in France, nearly always
produce an excess of females, and the
older rams, particularly those above
four years, an excess Of males.

Wear Mems Gloves.

The latest masculine wrinkle while!
girls affect is masculine gloves, no
gloves made in mannish style ant
fitting the feminine hand, but glove
that are cut on masculine lines, de
signed for masculine wearing, and but
toned with the single button that holds
together the abbreviated kid wrist. The
gloves are short and square and made
Of heavy dogskin and stitched marked
ly in white. The fingers are big and
clumsy, and the entire glove is almost
twice the size which the girl ordina-
rily affects. The bigger the glove the
more stylish the result. The mascu-

THE MAD KING.
Otto of Bavaria and His Beautiful
Little Palace.

Little Palace.
The reigning king of Bavaria is Otto
l., a man whose state of mental alien
alton is dark and terrible, says the
Detroit Free Press. He lives since his
accession as he had lived before, shut
I'D in the beautiful little palace of
Furstenrid, about two hours distant
from Munich. OF late years his malady
has taken the form Of stupor, though
there are still occasional outbreaks OF
violence. There has never been any
hope for his recovery, and it is really
a Iamentable fact that his physical
health is excellent. He occupies
suite of rooms on the ground Of the
palace, the doors being always left
open during the daytime, as closed
doors and windows excite his rage.
Once he broke all the front windows
OF his apartme- IS and since then the
glass has been protected by wire. Moth
ing else about the palace would indi-
cate that a lunatic inhabited it. The
king is always dressed in black and his
pet adornment is long black beard,
which he will not allow trimmed. He
often washes his face and hands, but
can seldom be persuaded to take a full
bath. He smokes from thirty to forty
cigars or cigarettes a day-enough to
make any man crazy! He seems to
have no marked desire for anything Of
Importance. 1t is described as pitiful
to see him look at the old servant who
cared for him in his infancy-she alone
calls forth a CLEAN of intelligence in
his countenance. Notwithstanding the
great misfortune that his condition is
to their country, the good Bavarians
celebrate the natal day of their mad
king with great loyalty

SMALL nArr

Under the heading, Cost Of the War In

statement that the deaths, from oil
causes, among the troops who were put
into service because Of the Spanish war,
numbered ), 73l in the time from May l.
1898, to February IS. 1899.
Az the total number Of men who bore
arms In the field aud in the camps was
something like 250,OO1, the percentage
of deaths was remarkably small. The
Herald admits that, but to be quite fair
Il should have added tina, not all the
5,73i lives can be properly considered rs
having been sacrificed TO the war, for n
those 250. 600 men a few thousands would
have died within the year. even though
there had been no wal and all had re
NAMED at home and followed their
usual mode Of life.
This small percentage Of d'sths Is
convincing proof Of the gross injustice
OF the charges which the Herald itself
has helped to support, that the soldiers
we're "fed on poisoned meat" aud sui
Tered severely for want OF medical at
tendance. II but a considerable part Of
all that has been charged by democratic
newspapers were tfue, the death rate
among the soldiers would have been
vastly greater.
