THE UPWARD TREND IN LIVE.
STOCK

[F7rom the Boston Transcript
The annual investigation made by the
New England Homestead into the ap-
proximate numbers and values of live
stock upon the farms of the United
States, shows further pronounced ad-
vance in this important industry. Re-
turns indicate not only substantial i'm
provement, compared with the past
three years, but the highest aggregate
valuation ever reported. During 1899
the upward tendency broadened and
deepened, and the present report shows
a valuation of all classes of farm ami
mails of 81, 558 900, 900. This is the high
est record ever made and an increase
in this form of farm wealth of 1515 per
cent during the year. Among the many
interesting facts brought out in the re-
port it is shown that for the first time
since the general Improvement began
every class Of livestock shares in the
improvement, both in average value per
head and total value of the class.
The highest valuation of livestock on
the farm previously reported was in
1889, when 1t aggregated 81, 507 900, 000
mis- valuation was reasonably uniform
until 1892, when the depression began.
In four years, or by January 1, 1896, the
shinkage in this form of wealth was
about 25 per cent the total valuation
at that date being only 81 $50 900 600
From then to the present year the up
ward trend has been. pronounced. Dur
ing the past year there has been an ad-
vance in the average price per head Of
horses on farms of u per cent; of
mich cows, 10 per cent; other cattle,
- per cent; sheep, 8 per cent; and hogs
10 per cent. In the present upward
swing only cattle other than mich COWS
and sheep have passed the best pre-
vious record of price per head. Mich
cows have not yet quite equalled it,
Horses and mules are still far below
their best record. and hogs can yet ad-
vance materially without reaching the
previous record

he DRANK WHISKY.
Principal Business of One of
Senator Clark's Workers.

Washington, Feb. 5.-When the SEN
ate committee on privileges and cleo
tons resumed it's investigation of the
election Of Senator Clark of Montana,
Mr.. Campbell, attorney for the prose-
cution, produced the affidavit of Mr..
Hill which that gentleman had testi-
fled had been altered by himself and
Mr.. Campbell. Mr.. Campbell said he
had made no changes in the document.
At this juncture Attorney Foster of
Senator Clark's side, asked that Mr..
Campbell be compelled to restore to Mr..
Bickford the letter which had been
stolen in it's transmission. He referred
to the letter from Bickford to Ben. Falk
which Hill had said had been taken
from him and opened by Campbell when
he was taking it to Falk and which
Campbell had admitted that he had
read, but which he said Hill had opened.
Mr.. Campbell resented Mr.. Fosters
intimation that the letter had been
stolen saying that this was absolutely
untrue and adding that he would turn
the letter over to the committee when
called for.
Chairman Chandler said this would
be satisfactory.
James Ryan of Butte was the first
witness. He knew Representatives
Normoyle and Murray; that Normoyle
had asked him (Ryan) to see Clark for
him and ascertain whether he could
not get some money for him (Normoyle)
out of the contest; that Murray had
told him that if he could get a pur-
chaser for some lots of his for $500 he
would not come to Washington to tes-
tify He said he had gone to Helena
in Mr.. Clark's interest during the ses-
sion of the legislature but that he had
paid his own expenses.
What did you do in Helena?" asked
Mr. Birney.
Il drank whiskey," was the reply. ct
helped Mr.; Clark by having a good time
with the boys"
Robert Fafro of Butte also contradicted
he had never made any suggestion to that
gentleman to the effect that he could get
$4,000 or any other sum for voting for
Mr.. Clark He had not, he said, partici-
pated in the senatorial contest
VIM. Gallick. a wholesale liquor dealer
said he had never tried to induce Repre-
sentative Murray to vote for Mr.. Clark
in by the prosecution. This witness also
stated that VIM. R. Rector, one of the
witnesses for the prosecution, had told
him that Congressman Campbell had
promised him that if he (RectOr) would
swear before the supreme court what he
(CampbelD told him to swear, he (Rector)
could have the, job of exporting" the
books of the Silver Bow company, which
would not take more than two or three
months and for which he could have
81 900 or s.. co., The witness also said that
Rector had told him that if he (GalIick)
could get Mr.. Clark to give him $500. he
would go to British Columbia and avoid
Gallick said he had declined to undertake
the negotiation

Rev. Mr.. Dornblazer, who was form
erly pastor of the English Lutheran
church in Topeka, was often called up
on 10 speak at various gatherings.
Al one time he was to speak at a
Lutheran synod in Pennsylvania and pre-
ceding him a divine by the name of
Helfrlsh was to make a few remarks.
Rev. Mr.. Helfrish was tall and thin and
his hair was fiery red. He was seat
ed, beside Rev. Mr.. Dornblazer, behind
the large pulpit. The man who was to
introduce the speakers got the names
slightly mixed. He arose and announc-
ed to the congregation that the Rev.

arose and as his head appeared above

Where are you going?" yelled one at
the seventh boy who had started off.
I'm going home" said the boy.
In an hour the six reported that they
could not find any four leafed clovers.
That was Thursday. The man told them
TO come again on Monday morning. He
decided that his scheme was a failure
and resolved on Monday to choose the
brightest looking boy in the lot On
Saturday the seventh boy appeared.

LECTURE SONG RECITAL
Artificial Perfumes.
IFron Nature.1

Tiemann, the German chemist who died
the other day, published in 1898, along
with Kruger, his we'll known paper ION
the Aroma of the Violet" 1t was, how
ever, the aroma rather of the iris root,
or orris root with which that Of the
violet may or may not be identicaD
that he investigated. The quantity of
the odoriferous principle contained in
iris root is so infinitesimal, and that of
the root to be extracted consequently so
large, that as he states, the resources
of a mere scientific laboratory proved
unequal to the task, and this preliminary
part of the investigation had to be car
ried out in the works at Holzminden.
The substance thus isolated was thor
oughly investigated and its constitution
established. In order to indicate its
origin and at the same time its consti-
to synthesize it was not, from the point
of view of the pure chemist, successful,
although for the manufacturing chemist
it was of the utmost value.
Starting with citral, obtained from oil
of lemons or from lemon grass oil, he
condensed this substance with acetone,
converting it into a compound which he
termed pseudo-iodine; this, when treated
with dilute sulphuric acid, yielded
ionone, not identical with irone, but so
closely resembling it in smell that very
few people can detect the difference.
For the purposes of the perfumer, there
fore, ionone is every whit as good as
irone. 1t is now manufactured, and the
value of the process to the patentees
may be judged of from the attempts
that have been made to evade or to
invalidate the patent-attempts that
have been foiled in courts of law both
in this country and in Germany.

CATHOLIC MISSION.
Services Open at Church of Assump-
ton.

The Church of the Assumption in
this city was crowded at the opening of
the Jesuit mission there Sunday morn
ing, and again last night when the first
evening sermon was preached. The
sermon at high mass in the morning
THE Mercy of Cod and in the even
ing Father Eugene Magevney spoke on
THE End of Our Creation" Both are
eloquent speakers, and their sermons
proved exceedingly interesting as well
as instructive.
The services in the evening this week
will be, as far as Catholics are con
cerned, for women. This arrangement
is made solely on account of seating ac-
commodations Protestant men and
women are welcome every evening dur
ing the two weeks of the mission.
In connection with the mission, spe-
cial instruction will be given any
Protestant who may desire to inquire
into the Catholic faith by either one or
the other of the Jesuit fathers every
evening

CERTAINLY AT LONDON.
Gov. Taylor Wires the Town
What to Expect.

London. KY. Feb. 5.-Rumors have
circulated here all day that proposed
converting of the legislature had been
abandoned. Finally at 1:So o'clock a
message was reached from Governor
Taylor at Frankfort saying:
THE legislature will certainly be held
in London tomorrow"
. This was read publicly and instantly
electrified the town. The people say
they are more than anxious to be given
the opportunity of showing to the coun-
try that there will be no molestation
and to remove the cloud that has fallen
upon London, more than the usual
amount of hospitality will be extended
to each legislative member, no matter
what his party.
