Buildings Going Up.

The magnificent buildings which are
to house the exhibits of the Pan-Ameri-
can Exposition at Buffalo next sum
mer are fast progressing toward COM
pletion and win soon be ready for the
collections which are on the way from
all quarters of the American continent.
The scene upon the grounds of the Elk
position, in the northern part of the
city, including part of the famous Della
ware Park, is Il busy one, and every
day sees some definite progress made
in the construction work. Conditions
have been very favorable to rapid
work, and the Pan-Ameriean EXPOSE
ton bids fair to break the record in
the matter of swift construction of Ex-
position buildings and their entire com
pletion before the time arrives to open
the gates to the general public.

SiaUn's Million Priests.

According to Il lecture on Siam deliv-
cred recently in London by John Bart
lett, that country has more than its
share OF priests. The population Of
Siam. he said, amounted to about
100000 and curious feature was
the large preponderance of Chinese,
more especially in Bangkok. The Chi
nese practically controlled all the trade
and commerce of the place. There
were hardly any Siamese merchants.
One mi;siiion of the people were in the
priesthood He had travelled up river
through the main territory of Siam for
a distance of 800 miles, and during the
journey it had been absolutely impos.
sible to get out of sight of Il temple
In each temple there were from 10 to
800 priests, supported entirely by the
people. OF the 100000 priests only
100000 were actively engaged. The re-
naming 100000 were passing through
the priesthood.

JESS AND THE BEAR.
Bruin Saved the Man, but Lost Hi
Life In the Burgain.

SiNcu tIlS MIN, but
Life In the Bargain.
There is Il story connected with the
last bear killed about here which fond
graudpapas often told the children
seated on their knees. 1t appears that
the celebrated Uncle Jess had spent
all his life as trapper and hunter, and
never mishap had befallen him. But
one night. in his anxiety to shake a
coOn he climbed the shell of an old
tree.
As he began shaking the neighbOr-
ing limb the stump to which he was
clinging gave way, and he sank feet
first into the hollow center. All efforts
to escape were Impossible, and the
pious hunter had resolved to pass the
remainder OF his life in prayer, when
toward night his supplications were in
terrupted. Looking up, he beheld the
eye of a bear looking straight down
at him.
Then the animal turned about and
backed down the inside of the stump.
Hardly knowing what to do, Uncle
Jess put up his hands in protection and
grasped the bear. Now it was the
bears turn TO be frightened. He
scrambled up again, while the hunter
hung on for his life and was carried
with safety to the top.
Here the bears real trouble began,
for with so heavy n weight it was i'm
possible for him to turn about and
back down, so he tried it head first,
but that was no easy matter to the
beast. and he fell with a heavy thud
to the ground below and was killed,
while Uncle Jess went home and told
the truthful tale, to be handed down
to his children.-Springfield Republic

We never throw two shocks together,
but leave the corn from each shock by
itself. The corn piles are never cover

into nice piles. so the sun ana wind
viii dry them out. \ short time of
sunshine and wind is sufficient to dry
them out after hard rain. We prefer
to put the fodder up in large shocks
and tie them well rather than leave it
around the field to cover up corn piles
and spoil. The corn itself should not
be put in large piles and let lie on the
ground for a considerable length of
time. Mice and rats viii work dirt up
through il, and if q rein should come
the dirt will be made into a mud, and
the corn will 20 into the crib in a very
unsatisfactory condition.
There is no way so satisfactory with
me rs to keep everything 'sleeked up"
as fast as you 20 along. Don't let
more than load or two accumulate
before drawing in. \ pretty good way
is to have the wagon right in the iield,
on. This is 4 safe way and saves pick
ing up the corn. Then set your fodder
up in very large shocks and tie 4
strong string around tie tops. Fodder
Aeeps so much better i'll large shocks.
If the corn is sound, we don't sort, as
we feed it all out. \ crib of sorted
corn looks well, but it doesn't pay for
the bother. We must save all unneces-
sqry movements in our farm work.
We must cut across every corner that
we can and not slight our work. This
is one way of cheapening production
and saving of money.
| said above that we piled our corn
up in nice piles to dry out This is not
true now. but was a few years ago.
We now have crates and pitch the corn
into them as fast as husked. When 4
shock is finished, we set one crate on
another until four or five high. The
corn soon dries out in this way, and
none is pitched on the ground. One
man can draw a large load to the crib
in few minutes and empty a bushel
at a time into the crib
1t requires 100 crates to work well.
You can draw so bushels at a time,
and when you 90 out after a load you
can take the 80 empty crates and dis

A POPULAR MISTAKE.
The Idea That Professional Men
Have an Easy Time.


People who work with their hands,
especially farmers, are apt to think
that professional men have an easy
time of il" said a lawyer of this city.
It's an amusing mistake. The farmer
stops ut sundown, and the labOrer
works ten hours at the outside. The
average professional man works from
II to II hours day in and day out, all
the year around. Often, at a pinch, he
will work from Is to 20 hours for sew
eral days in succession, and he will
work when he is sick or suffering Sc
we're physical pain. something the man
ual toilcr wouldn't dream Of OF course
he takes short intervals of rest, like
everybody else. The human engine
isn't capable of absolutely sustained
endeavor for over an hour at a stretch.

We have heard much of "the man
with the hoe" Now comes the other
side. \ recent author devotes his at
tention to The Modern Farmer in
his busincs relations. According TO
Mr.. T. +. Adams. the modern farmer
is. or should be primarily 4 business
man. He must know not only how to
make crops grow. but how TO produce
them so that they will sell for less than
they cost. Under the conditions of to
day he is compelled 10 sell for money
what he raises and TO buy with money
what he consumes. With the enormous
increase in the facilities for transpor-
tation every farmer in the civilized
world is the competitor to a certain
degree Of every other, even in the sale
of products consumed at his very door.
To be successful he must know more
of the business Of .he world, not only
what is being done but also how it is
done. He must have the best machin-
cry, and to use it to the greatest ad-
vantage he must have n large place.
The successful farmer will be the
broadly and thoroughly educated one.

story from Secretary Wilson Illus
trating the uses Of adversely is told in
the Chicago Record. y farmer out
west planted a lot of ground with sug-
ar beets. They grew beautifully and
sent out Il glorious foliage of dark red
leaves, with deep red veins in them,
which lie admired very much. \ tor
nado came and cut them off close to
the ground. The poor farmer was dis
couraged. He decided that he would
give up farming and go back east.
Before they had finished packing,
however, he noticed new, healthy
shoots coming from all the beets and
told his wife he guessed they had bet
ter wait awhile and see what hap
pened. In a few weeks the foliage
was as fresh and strong as before, so
he hocd out the weeds, with the conf
dence of getting good crop. When
he dug up those beetS and took them
to the sugar factory that fail, they
were found to contain more saccharine
than any others that were offered, and
on investigation at the experiment sta

SWEAT BOX BROUGHT
Confession Of CRIME.
AND MURDER OF A LITTLE
GIRL ny HIS BROTHER.
HEINoUs CRIME CLEARED UP,
DENVER JAIL FOR CRIME
At LIMON.

DENVER, Col, Nov. IA pair Of
overalls and shirt stained with blood
were found in the baggage of three
eolored men. Preston Porter and his
two sons, who were detained in the city
prison here on account of suspicion
that John Porter, one of the boys,
was the murderer of Louise Frost.
They had shipped their baggage to
Lawrence, Kansas, but it was re-
turned to Denver and opened.
After standing the pressure of the
sweat box at the city Jail for four days
John Porter, who is Is year old, to-
night broke down and confessed every
detail of the killing of the eleven-year-
old girl.
The little girl was the daughter of a
ranchman living four miles from Lii
mon, who attended school in town. On
Wednesday last, while on her way home
she was waylaid, assaulted and murd-
cred, her bdoy showing no less than
fourteen knife wounds.
The police department sent two men
to Limon tonight to verify some of
his statements.
They wish to be absolutely sure of
his guilt before turning him over to
the authorities at Limon owing to a
strong belief that he will be lynched on
arrival at that place.
