Of fractures. And beyond the cast
there is no further treatment neces-

be put on until the inflammation in

continuous application of hot water
is found to be the most eficacious
remedy. When once the inflammation

on this the plaster bandage and

keeps its place and keeps the injured
part intact. The cast should be kept
on as long as possible-at least a
week under all circumstances, and in
cases of a sprained foot, ankle OF

of injury caused by a sprain of the

under no circumstances be removed
in less than a week, for the greatest

NEGRO MURDERER AT BAY.

other In Maryland.

WASHINGTON, D. G. Special. -Humph-
rey Taylor, a negro suspected Of the Rosen'
stein murder at Slidell, Nd, shot and
killed Police Sergeant Fritz Passaut
wounded Policeman low, and kept a posse
of half a dozen officers at bay from the loft
OF a house nearly two hours. Dozens O.,
shots were, exchanged between the officers
and the fugitive, who only surrendered
when preparations were made to burn the
house.
When questioned by the policei in regard
to the Rosenstein murder the prisoner be-
came much confused in his replies, and
told half u dozen different stories. He said
that a man named Brown had committed
the murder, and that he waited on the out.
side and kept watch, receiving $50 fro m
Brown. On searching the house the police
found 1892 and a gold watch and chain
where he had secreted them. He had a
diamond ring and Il small sum of money
on his person. His conflicting stories as to
his movements and where he obtained the
money led the police to believe be Is the
man the Maryland authorities are looking
for. 1t Is probable, however, that he will
be detained by the district authorities and
tried for the murder Of Sergeant Passau.

Abram Robson, near Grantsburg,
Ind, while hunting for a stray horse,
which had been missing for two days,
noticed a large blacksnake which re-
treated toward a cave formed by an
overhanging ledge of rocks in one of
the high bluffs surrounding his pas
ture land. His horse was found lying
in this cavern, but covered with what
looked to him like a mountain of
snakes, so numerous were the reptiles.
Robson obtained his shotgun and
opened fire, continuing until his cart
ridges were exhausted. After the bat
tie he counted the bodies of 413 snakes,
lying around and over the body of his
horse, which was dead, while many
reptiles escaped in a wounded condi-
ton. He believes that his horse,
which was a magnificent animal weigh
ing 1000 or more pounds, had been
charmed by the reptiles, so that he
was powerless to escape, and be had
finally succumbed through weakness.

HAY CROP WILL BE LIGHT.
A Light Rainfall and a Much Smaller
Acreage Responsible For the Failure!

Acreage Responsible For the Failure.
CHICAGO (speciaD.- A deficiency of mois-
ture during the early spring generally
causes a shortage in the hay crop, so in
consequence of the light rainfall of the
past month reports from the country sug-
gest that the supply Of this necessary com
modify this season will be less than 1t has
been for several years. In addition to the
prospects of a light yield the comparatively
higher prices OF all grain has induced
numbers of farmers to pillow up their
meadows, while the same cause has pre-
vented many others from seeding new
ones.
The total area in this country devoted to
the hay crop is usually something close to
81, 900, 900 acres. According to the agri-
cultural reports the yield in the western
States considerably exceeds q ton to the
acre, while the value is placed at seine IS
per ton. Both estimates are rather high,
for even in those localities most noted Tor
the production OF grass the crucial test OF
a press and scales generally prove the yield
of m~erchantable hay to be slightly under
a ton per acre; still II the farmers could
obtain the price the report states they
would be perfectly satisfied with such a re-
turn, for, considering that during the in
ltial year the land Is occupied by another
crop, and tina a meadow once laid down IS
good for several years, the first cost OF
seeding Is infinitesimal, while the expense
Of caring for the crop, even II all the work
is done by outside labor, does not exceed

Peculiar Accident to a BOY.

While a little boy named David
James Francis was playing with his
companions on the seashole at BURY
Port, the other evening he noticed a
penknife at the bottom of a large iron
pipe fixed in an upright position.
The lad forced himself bodily into
the pipe, only to find that there was
not room enough for him to stoop
down to pick up the knife.
In the attempt to do so n of his
legs doubled up under him, and short
~ afterward his comrades were at.
tracted to the pipe by the screams OF
the venturesome David James. Being
powerless to render and help they ran
for assistance, and a number of men
came to the rescue.
Owing to the bending OF the boys
leg, it was impossible to pull him out
by his arms, and the pipe had to- be
d~isembedded before the boy could be
got out. He had been a prisoner fol
three hours and a half.-London
