Secretary of State Falley came in

The Bowbells tribune., 1900-07-06

Andreas Lachapa of Mesa Grande,
CAL, is, as nearly as we can guess, 100
years old. The old Indians date all
events from the battle of San Pasqual,
in 1916. At that time his sons were
men. High above the valley upon
overlooking hills Lachapa heard the
thunder of the heavy guns and the
sharp crack of rifles, and the next day
saw the dead men. There were many.
The Spaniards told him to fight the
Gringos, but he was afraid of the ter
rible noise.
Though his eyes are so dim, Lachapa
is looking for his son, Jesus Lachapa.
who left him twenty-five years ago,
and would now be about so years old.
Never day but the old man looks for
the absent son, whom he hopes to find
before he dies.
Lachapa has known three conditions
of life. When he was young man he
hunted deer, brought it home across
his shoulders, cut, roasted and ate It.,
then danced and slept.

Reporter Sent In the Wrong Card.

An official of the supreme court was
puzzled by g card sent in to him by
desperate newspaper man Monday.
April so, when the arguments on the
Kentucky government case began. The
court reom was full of sightseers, and
the overflow extended in long line
down the corridor. The reporter tried
to get in ahead Of the line, and was
stopped. He protested.
"Shall these rubbernecks be let in to
moEopolize the supreme court room
when II, newspaper man, ordered
to report the case, am kept out?" he
exclaimed.
''Them's ORDERS" said the ancient
colored man at the door.
Off rushed the reporter to the court
marshars office. He yanked out his
wallet, and, seeing card in it, wrote
on the back:
''My editor orders me to report the
Kentucky case to-day. Must be ad-
mitted: can't wait for the crowd"
In a moment the answer came back,
and his card with it: "No ROOM"
The reporter looked at the card he
had sent in and blushed. He had by
mistake, given the attendant not his
own, but the card Of manager Of a
troupe Of ballet and variety perf0tm-
ers.-Washington Letter.

Story of the nrlnust.

>~.~~-~es"
There is an interesting story told of
the minuet, which is, perhaps,the most
popular of all Paderewski's compost
tions. Paderewski, while professor
at the Conservatoire of Warsaw. was
one evening at the house Of the Polish
poet, Swicztochowski, who expressed
the opinion that no living composer
could compare with Mozart in beauty
and simplicity. At the moment Pa
derewski merely shrugged his shoul-
ders, but the following evening he ap-
peared and asked permission to play
his host little thing of Mozart's
which perhaps he did not know He
played the minuet. Swicztochowski
was enraptured and cried triumphant
ly: 'sNoY you must acknowledge that
niece like that could not have been
written in our time!" Well" said
Paderewski, quietly. ''that happens to
be a minuet composed by me-"

and we are sorry-sorry. Then we
learned to, pray and bless ourselves.
We planted corn and squash and the
land was ours. Now the white men
are here. They give us: coffee and SUI
gar, and we, wear clothes and know
many things. Yes, am glad they
came. We old men suffer much but
our children can read. the little black
marks.

Poor old Andras: and his little
Guadeloupe, his; wife,. have never asked
for help. Though he is bent almost
double and her hair is as white as cot
ton, they plant the little patch of beans
and gather seeds and acorns. Though
almost blind, Guadeloupe holds her
work up to the sunlight and weaves
with tremu1ous fingers the basket that
will buy the precious sugar and cof-
fee, or spins the soft fiber Of the silk
stalks for the carrying net. So, kind
they are to each other, so gentle, SO
Industrious, it is pleasure to- visit
their poor little home and listen to
their stories Of the past.

SERVICE IN THE: SENATE

! There are ninety United States SEN
ators, and of the present senate twen-
ty-four members have served more
than twenty years. The recent success
at the Democratic primaries in Ala
bama of John T. Morgan insures him
another term. He took his seat in the
senate March 5, 1877, and at the con-
clusion of his next term will have been
thirty-two years consecutively in Office
as senator from Alabama
Senator Jones of Arkansas will have
eighteen years in the senate to his
credit on the completion of his term in
1908. Senator Teller of Colorado first
entered the upper house in 1876, and
his present term does not expire until
1903; but he resigned in 1882 to become
secretary of the interior, an Office
which he held for three years, at the
close of which he was returned to con-
gress. Mr.. Platt of Connecticut has
been more than twenty-one years a
senator; his colleague, Senator Haw-
ley, has been in the senate nineteen
years; Senator Cullom, whose term ex-
pires March next, and whose successor
the next Illinois legislature will
choose, has had seventeen years of
service, while Senator Allison of Iowa
became senator in 1873 and has been
continually in that Office for twenty
seven years, and his term has still
three years to run. Senator Frye Of
Maine was chosen nineteen years ago,
and his colleague, Senator Hale, was
chosen at the same time. Senator
Hoar of Massachusetts was elected in
1877 and has held his seat continuous
ly since then. Senator Davis Of Min
nesota was elected in 1877, and the two
Missouri senator's, Cockrell and Vest,
are both veterans in service, any prof.
ect to replace either with new man
being regarded in Missouri as little
short of revolutionary. Mr.. CockreII.

Properly Hatched Chicks.-When an
incubator is used, be sure and see that
the chicks are properly hatched
Poorly Matched chicks are of little
value, and you never know whether
they are going to live or die. The
good hatch may be obtained by paying
attention to every detail. The tenn
perature must not be too high nor too
low; the supply of moisture must be
right and the amount Of ventilation
must not be too great. Miscalcula-
tions in these regards will result in
weak chicks that cannot be developed
at a profit.

who succeeded Carl Schurz, has been
senator since 1875, and Mr.. Vest, who
succeeded Gen. Shields, has been q SEN
ator since 1879, twenty-five years and
twenty-one years respectively. Sena'
tor Vests term has three years to run.
and that Of Senator Cockrell five.
A small state which has been very
tenacious in the support of its senate
rial representatives is Nevada, Sena-
tor Jones having been first elected In
1873-about coincident with "the crime
of '73," of which much has been heard
in Nevada-and Senator Stewart hav-
ing been first elected in 1864, thirty
six years ago. He was reelected in
1869, but retired after sixteen years OF
service to re-enter the senate in 1887,
since which he has served consecu-
lively, and has been reelected for an
other term, at the conclusion Of which
he will have had eighteen years OF
consecutive service and twenty-nine
years Of actual service, with only one
break. Senator Chandler Of New
Hampshire has been IN Of1ce since
1887. Senator Sewel1 Of New Jersey
was first elected in 1881, but has not
been consecutively In the senate. Sen
ator Aldrich Of Rhode Island has been
a senator since 1881. He succeeded
Gen. Burnside. Senator Bate of Ten
nessee was elected in 1887. Senator
Daniel of Virginia in 1887, succeeding
Gen. Malone.
It is usually to be observed that,
with the conspicuous exception of Mis-
souri,, it is the smaller states which
adhere to the policy Of successive re-
elections for their senator's It is found
usually that senator Of long expert
ence can be of more service politically
to his constituents than one who is
less familiar with the conditions of
Washington life, and in small states
the importance Of federal patronage is
not to be underrated.

she said:
"Papa was sick and sleeping, OH, so

not to be down there, and there had
been so many bad men breaking into

teLantry the duke Of Argyll was often

Horses for Europe.

The German trade does not REQUIRE
either an impossible or an ideal horse,
suited to all purposes; but 1t does de-
mand good horses of every kind. thor

either for home or foreign service. must
NIL distinct place, i. e., he must be
good one of his kind, whether he be
cavalry horse, draft horse, a car
rlage horse, a trotter, hunter, a polo
pony or what kind soever. The stan
dard by which good horses are judged
lis practically the same on both CONT
nents. A good horse in America is a
good horse in Europe provided he fills
a distinct want in the business of the
country. In Europe horses pull carts,
CABS, omnibuses, coaches, trans,
plows. etc., and carry men on their
backs. Thus they need horses of all
breeds, for no one breed can possibly
fill all Of these requirements satisfac-
torily.
Great Britain-Ninety per cent of all
horses shipped to this country are
draft horses. about per cent are
n1eh-class coachers, and per cent
trotting and light carriage horses.
Germany-Ninety-f1ve per cent of all
the horses shipped to Hamburg are
orart horses, weighing 1900 pounds or
upward, the other per cent being
made up Of high-class carriage, run
nlng, and trotting horses. Most of the
latter are reshipped to Austria.
France-About IS per cent of the
horses exported to this country are

10 per cent are about equally divided
between draft horses and trotters.

sent to Antwerp are trotting or light

Mr.. Goodrich Corn meal and bran;
the reason for that is that there u
enough protein in pasture grass.
Q.-Do you think that you can form
good opinion Of the value Of a dairy
cow by purchasing her and taking her
away from her old surroundings, and
putting her into new and strange con-
ditions?
Mr.. Goodrich-That depends on the
kind Of surroundings she has had; II
she has been owned by some progress
i've man that has kept her under ideal
conditions she might not do we'll in
her new quarters, but If she is taken
from ordinary conditions into my
place she will be 50 well satisfied In a
few days that she will do her best.
Q.-Do you think that it is prudent
to feed a breeding cow corn meal?
Mr.. Goodrich-That depends on what
the rest of the ration is. If she is get
ting timothy hay and corn stalks and
silage would say not, but If she Is
getting clover or alfalfa you can bal
ance it by feeding some corn meal. I
never feed clear corn meal.
Q.-How is oat meal?
Mr.. Goodrich-Oat meal is good
feed.
Q.-What about gluten feed?
Mr.. Goodrich-1 think 1t is all right.
Off you find that a COW is getting
fat do you continue to give her corn
meal?
Mr.. Goodrich-1 do not: give her
more of the protein feeds.
Q.-In feeding gluten feed, have you
ever had trouble with the udder get
ting hard?
Mr.. Goodrich-No, sir; and we have
fed as high as five pounds of gluten
feed per day.
Q.-How much wheat bran is it safe
to feed?
Mr.. Goodrich do not think that
you are likely to feed enough bran to
do any damage.

Breeding . Dairy Herd.


(Condensed from Farmers' Review sten,
ographic Report Of Wisconsin Dairymen;s
Convention) 'e''
G. P. Goodrich read a paper on
breeding dairy herd. He told of his
attempts to get good cows by buying,
but finally had to go to breeding and
developing his own cows. He had OBJ
tanned very good results from feeding
grain to his cows when on pasture.
The yield one year went up to 300
pounds per cow, although there were a
number of two and three year old heif-
ers in the herd. He also feeds silage.
Q.-Was your Improvement in the
herd due to breeding or feeding?
Mr.. Goodrich think that it was
due to both.
Q.-What feed do you give when
gear cows are on good grass?
