ThornIess Cactus For Arid Regions.
Another forage plant Of promise for
the warmer regions, and especially for
the arid section, lis the thornless al
tus. This Is an opnntia or prickly pear,
which yields enormous amounts Of the
SO called leaves Of pads, which are In
reality dattened branches, some 10 to
lis tons per acre being often reported.
The pads contain only from 5 to 10 per
cent of dry matter; but, being q wa
terry food, It Is adapted to stock in dry
regions, especially where more con-
centrated food seed, as cotton seed,
can be given as well. The best sorts
are thorrless and can be cut for fod-
der. liz desired. though IL this be done
no fruit Is produced. Messrs. Lathrop
and Fairchild sent the section Of seed

smooth cactus used for fodder ID Ar.

OF Sicily This latter Is thornIess, but
has minute prickles. Cattle, however.
eat it readily, and it has the advantage
OF producing delicious fruits.

An Election Coincidence.

The board Of supervisors has lust fin
ished the canvass of the vote of the late
election For the office of sheriff, Hugh

brought to mind by this close result is
the fact that sixteen years ago Mr. Nc
Calm and Mr.. Purcell CHS opponent for
sheriff this year, ran for the office of
collector in the town of Ovid. in which
they both reside, and the result OF that
election was the same as this one

every one of them contains a notice Of

began last Christmas when Father

deserved success because it gave the
public something new, but it served as
a model for nearly every publishing

LYING WAS BEGUN.

The Republican national committee
keeps the Republican newspaper
throughout the country supplied with
burning thoughts. This is boom to
the Republican newspapers. for their
thoughts use to cost them % cents per
column from the "boiler-plate" fac
tories, and now they get them for
nothing.

Last year. Mr.. Creolman. tho ceie-

from Nebraska that statement that Mr..
Bryan by his lectures and writings
had accumulated property worth about
twenty-five thousand dollars. The

cllned printer. put on an extra cipher,
mnking the amount two hundred and
nfty thousand dollars. Tho mistake
was not discovered until the paper was

for the Republican press TO make an
out-ery about. Remarks about Mr..
Bryan Ms 'plutoornt" began TO cir

but they eventually stopped when the
explanation OF the slip made them too
ridiculous TO be persisted In. The
Hanna literary bureau, has. however.
recently revived them. and has even
improved on the original typographical
error by raising the amount OF Mr..
Bryan'a fortune TO three hundred thou

THE COAL STRIKE
NOT YET SETTLED

Philadelphia, Oct. 16.-It is expected
that the officials of the Reading COM
pany will to-day take up for consider
alton the proposition of the Mine Work
ers' convention. 1t is known that some
of the directors of the company are
opposed to the abolition of the sliding
scale, which has for years been in oper-
alton at the Reading collieries.
One Of the directors of the Reading
said to-day that he is opposed to new
wage scale. and intimated that he
would make an effort to defeat such n
proposition. He asserted that the slid
ing scale had for years proven satisfac-
tory, both TO the company and en-
ployes, as was evidenced by the fact
that until the convention at Scranton
demanded n change no protest had
come from the company miners.
Shamokin, Pa. Oct. 1G.-Not n col

of the coal region Yesterday. While
miners generally think the terms of the

forced by the coal carrying companies,

retary OF district No. o, made this
statement:

cepted by operators giving their ap-

Hazclton, Pa. Oct. 1G.-The threat
ened march of striking mine workers
TO the Panther Creek valley started
from this section last night. The OBJ
1ectiyc points OF the marchers were
Lnnsford In Carbon county. and Coal
dale, In schuyklll county. These towns
are about twenty miles south OF Haz-

their destination early tomorrow

They expect TO reach that valley IN

FILIPINOS PACIFIED
EXCEPT ROBBER BANDS

New York. Oct. 15.-Lieutenant Ed
ward ii. Flaherty, who has recently
been honorably discharged from the
army, after recovering from illness con-
tracted with the Twenty-seventh infan-
try in the Philippines, believes the
island of LuZon has been thoroughly
pacified.
.There are no FTlipinos fighting
against the United States now," said he
last night. save struggling bands OF
robbers, or Ladrones. They are still
thick in sever.l provinces, and We're
noticeahly thick In the province of Mo-
rong until the Twcnty-seventh infantry
drove them out In a campaign ending
with the battle of Tamay, last January.
"All the Fllipinos except the Tagalos
are in favor Of American supremacy.
Some of the Filipinos have actually
turned their arms against the Ladrones
and killed some OF them. II is feasible
to suplant large number of our SOL
diers with natives enlisted In the Am
erican service, and II ought to be done.
TO spare our men. The Ladrones obey
TO large extent the orders of Aguinal-
do. though bands are so widely spread"
Lieutenant Fiaherty said Private
Gibson of the First Nebraska was the
first American TO fire on the Filipinos.
''He did not fire until he had been fired
upon" added the lieutenant, "nnd then
he killed n Filipino lieutenant and ser
gcant with one shot out OF Springfield
rifle. The Fillplnos began hostllities."
