Years Do Not Burden Him.


President Diaz of Mexico is ap-
preaching the allotted years of man,
but, like most elderly men, will not
confess that age is telling on him.
Powell Clayton, United States minis
ter to our neighboring republic, re-
Gently told a good story Of the vener-
able statesman and soldier. One day,
after having dined at castle of Cha
pultepec with the president, they Wis
tied the military academy of Mexico.
Here in the gymnasium the students
were taking exercise, and many of
them displayed great skill in rope
climbing. One of these ropes was 40
feet long and hung from a ring in the
roof. Suddenly, with a smile, Presi-
dent Diaz stripped off his coat, and,
grasping the rope, began to climb hand
over hand to the top. He came down
in the same manner and with as much
ease as any of the students. He was
hardly even out of breath when he
reached the ground, and laughed when
Gen.. Clayton helped him on with his
coat.

him ont 81 the victories he had won

to the park board denouncing the socl-
ETY. and the jud gme nt OF ats committee.
They were unfayorab1y disposed to-
ward him because he was not mem.
Der Of the society, he said, and they
had come with their decision prepared
before hand. There was an art trust,
he said, with an Office in Wall street,
which contro oiled the public art Of the
city, and none could break in save
those who were favored He begged
for another Judgment by untrammeled
experts, by sculptors who were not
controlled by the trust The appeal
fell upon deaf ears. The park board
referred his passionate letter to the
society against which it was directed
and nothing more was heard OF it.
Then the government of Venezuela re-
fused to pay him for his work. The
statues of Gen. Sucre and Gen. Paez
had been sent to Caracas, but the
statue of Liberty was still in the foun-
dry. Turini was in despair. He had
no money and he knew not where to
turn for financial assistance. The
mortgage on his house fell due and the
property was sold. When the Dewey
arch project took form the sculptor
threw himself into the work with some
OF his old-time ardor. Possibly he saw
in it chance to regain his place in
the artistic world. He toiled cease
lessly. on colossal figure, and so en-
crossed was he in the work that he
forgot to eat. On the morning of the
eighth day of his labor he seemed to
be the victim of great mental depres-
sion. It may be that he felt he could
not complete the work he had under
taken. When he had dressed himself
he staggered into his wife's room and
fell dead across the bed.-New York

people is infallible because it is i'm

Because he expects to derive an ex-

WITHOUTA STATUE

As It Stands Now II Is . Monument to

p; FrsE 80 Il 10, {
+ On, the. brow Of a hill in Central
park. opposite West Eighty-fourth
street, stands a pedestal without a
statue. On it once rested the eques-
trian statue of Ii Gen.. Simon Bolivar,
liberator Of Colombia. It is not likely
that it will ever hold another. AS 1t
stands now it is a monument to
sculptor who died of broken heart.
He was Giovanni Turini, who expired
suddenly one morning in August OF
last year in the midst of his labor on
the Dewey arch. The statue, of Boil
beast, and for that reason, presumably,
it was almost completely hidden by
foliage. The Venezuelan government
offered to replace it with one of the
same subject that would be more in
keeping with the surroundings. The
without hesitation. They saw in it a
chance to get rid of an Objectionable
monument without giving offense to
its donors, and so great was their zeal
to do away with the statue that they
did not wait to tear, it down until it's
successor was completed. Turin was
selected by Venezuela to make the new
monument. At the same time that
government commissioned him to exc
cute a gigantic statue of Liberty and
bronze memorials to Gen. Paez, all Of
which were to be erected in the city of
Caracas. The sculptor took up the
work with all the enthusiasm of his
race. He was. an Italian, and he was
sure that both fame and fortune were
now within his grasp: He used up all
his ready money and when that was
gone he mortgaged his house. Finally
the clay model of the Bolivar statue
was completed, and Turini eagerly
sought the judgment of the commit
tee of the National Sculpture society,
which acted as an advisory body to
the park board in all matters pertain
ing to public art. To him there could
be but one decision. The visit of the
committee to his studio was simply
matter of form, he thought, and the
artists who composed it would not
only pass favorable judgment on the
statue, but would congratulate him on
| his splendid treatment of the design.
He had chosen as his model the eques-
trian monument of Bolivar which
| Tadolini executed for Caracas. He
sought not originality, being content
to produce a replica of what he con-
sidered a great work of art. But alas!
for all his fine hopes. The committee
studied his model with the character
| istically cold precision of the Ameri-
| can expert and straightway reported
against it's acceptance by the park
authorities. The members said that
the model failed to reach the standard
Of artistic excellence that it should

Burrs and Weed Seeds in Wool.

Prof Herbert w. Mumford, of the
Michigan Agricultural College, says:
The condition of the wool refers to
the cleanliness of the feece,-the alb
sence Of all foreign substances, such
as sand, .burrs, chaf and all other sub
stances looked upon by the wool man
ufacturer as litter. It is not because
these naturally light substances at
feet the weight of the fleece to any
considerable extent, that the wool
manufacturer so strenuously objects to
their presence in the fleece, but that
they must be removed from the fleece
before it is ready for manufacturing
purposes and the process Of separating
these substances from the fleece is
not only very tedious but very expen-
sive, and that, as a rule, it cannot be
done without more or less injury to
the wool fiber. Knowing the above
facts we can easily see how condition
affects the price of wool, because it d.
rcctly affects it's value. It is not diff
ficult matter for the wool grower to
SO manage his f1ocks that the WOOL
produced by them will be practically
free from all litter. He must provide
racks for the sheep which will permit
them to eat without getting their
necks full of chaff, seeds and dust. Ut
is, Of course, unnecessary to mention
the old straw stack.) He must keep
his farm free from burr-bearing weeds,
his flock will keep most other weeds
in check. If we needed any proof that
the farmers of our country are negli-
gent about allowing weeds to grow and
seed in abundance on their farms, we
could visit some large wool securing
or wooden mill and carefully examine
the refuse or waste from the mills and
we would have abundant proof In the
millions OF weed seeds found. At some
mills where such refuse is dumped
where seeds can terminate and grow
we find large number Of species and
varieties of weeds.

The ell average weight Of sheep re-
5ceiyetd in June at the stock yards was
the highest Of the year. The proper
ton OF spring lambs was larger than
usual which reduced the weight. The
average was. only 81 pounds, against
s87 pounds the previous month. 7
"A sheepman says: Tell these Wis
consin3s shippers that there is posi-
lively no demand for common to fair
sheer and lambs. They have to sell
at rldllceulously lew prices, and If ship
pers realized how low the market Is
for such stock no doubt they would
not send them in so freely. Over rs
per cent Of the sheep and lambs re-
ceived the first week in July consisted
Of stock which buyers didn't want" :.
Prof. Herbert w. Mumford, of Mich
igan, says: With the vast amount Of
cheap unoccupied land in Michigan
which 1s we'll adapted to sheep hus-
bandry, combined with the. present en-
.couraging outlook for the wool and
mutton industry, it is our opinion that
farmers can we'll afford to double the
number Of sheep now kept in the state.
Our climate and other conditions are
favorable for the growth of wool and
mutton and our geographical position
gives US many advantages both from
a breeders and from a general farm
er's standpoint.
Plans are being drawn in the bridge
building department of the Denver
& Rio Grande for the largest sheep
dipping and clipping yards in the
West. The traffic in sheep between
New Mexico and Arizona and Colorado
has so increased within the last year
or two that the ordinary facilities for
handling the stock are not sufficient.
The new building for which plans are
now being drawn will be erected at
Chama, N. M, as soon as they have
been approved by President Jeffery.
The yards and buildings will be of un-
usual capacity and when moderately
full will accommodate $500 sheep.
Sheep men, recently returned from
the West, report a frightful condition
on the sheep ranges of eastern Mon
tana. Grass is dry as powder. and
prairie fires have been raging in some
sections, one fire sweeping over fifty
. square miles before it could be
checked. They say the present gene
ration has never seen the water so low
in the upper Mississippi. No boats
have run above La Crosse during the
last month. Outlook for feeding at
the northern points is very discour-
aging, with practically no screenings
to be had, and ranges so bare of vege.
tation that the sheep must come into
feed lots this fall in a weak and ema-
ciated condition..

nifcent trophy at the head of the bed
stead was so large that no single piece
of ivory could be obtained of the re-
CURED dimensions.
II The firm talked of reducing the
carving, but Mr.. Marchand would not
hear Of it. They found tusk of the
requisite size at last, but it took seven
months to find it, and the cost of the
ivory and the journey as far as Uyan-
yembe, Africa, where the mammoth
tusk was discovered, ran Mr.. Mar
chand into further expense of near
ly, $4,000. The hangings of the bed
stead were of special purple damask,
costing $24 a yard, exclusive of the
initial cost Of the loom cards. The
wardrobe was nearly as expensive as
the bedstead; S145,0O0 was the exact
price paid for it. When the trif1ing
additional expense of dressing table,
$4,000; washstand, $4,000 and table

two feet, is of elliptical form. The
walls are made with deliberately cary
ed panels in the style of Louis XIV, the
background is finished white enamel,

S64,000. The wall inside the panels
is hung with purple and gold Genoese
velvet, manufactured by Lyons firm
at cost of $3S yard. The wall hang
ings alone cost Mr.. Marchand $1O,S5O.

curtain draperies were Of the same ma
terial as the wall panels and cost 49,
