plans had so far matured that drill

native land.
What the Irish patriots needed,
though, was skilled military leaders.
These they had not. but the civil war
In the United States furnished a school
for IIishmen on this side of the Attain
tic In which to learn the art Of war and
the skill to command, which they hoped
to be able to practice In Ireland when
the civil war was over. Under Ste
phens' direction active enlistment in
the various Fenian societies was I'M
dertaken in 1864, and secret drillings
were carried on all over the island.
This activity had been preceded the
year before by a convention In the
United States. at which Stephens was
proclaimed the practical head Of the
Irish nation, or, as he was called by
the Fenians, the central organizer Of
the Irish republic. John O'Mahoney
was chosen head center for the United
States.
With the close Of the Civil War many
Irlshmen who had won fame in the
Union army on Southern battlehelds re-
turned to Ireland. having been led to
believe through Stephens representa-
ton that a good-sized army of Irish
patriots had already been organized
and equipped, and was only waiting
for competent commanders. When it
was urged upon him that the time for
action had arrived Stephens insisted
upon a delay, and he was openly ac-
cased of being a braggart, Of being
vain and altogether Incompetent

He was remanded for examination.
but before he could be brought into
court again he had escaped from prison,
chiefly through the efforts of Capt.
John Kerwin, who is now in New York.
Stephens made his way to France and
thence to the United States. He was
received with great honor in New York
by the Fenian brotherhood. In 1891 he
was unohicially informed that If he
would give up all further Fenian agi-
tation he might return to Ireland. He
accepted the offer and the closing days
Of his life were spent in retirement in

resting Cream by weight.

From Farmers Review: Since the
number of hand separators has in
creased at home diaries, creamery but
ter-makers have occasion to test a
considerable number of cream samples,
and this has been the source of a
great many inquiries during the past
few months In regard to cream test
ing. Evidently factories are now re-
c~eiying a great deal more cream from
their patrons han has formerly been
the case. A request was recently
made for "a rule for testing fat in
cream when testing by weight" In
replying to this 1t is we'll to make
plain the foundation for such a rule.
Three things should be remembered.
First. that the sp. or. of butter fat is
assumed to be 0.9, /. e., IL one volume
of water weighs / then the same vol
ume of butter fat weighs 90. Second,
the space occupied by l per cent on
tn. neck of a Babcock milk test bottle
or on a cream test bottle should be
exactly or C. C. Third, Is grams OF
milk or cream must be placed in a
test bottle in order to read the result
directly from the scale on the neck.
From these three factors, a rule for
calculating the test of a certain weight
of cream is easily constructed. If 3
grams OF cream are weighed into a
test bottle, 10 C. C. of water added to
1t and the test completed in the same
way hat a sample of milk would be
fAntA1 49, H.. - H. -AaIr 80 Ahn fnCf
bottle may fill a space of 6 per cent.
This figure does not mean that the
cream contained only 6 per cent rat
but the butter-maker wants to know
from these figures how much the cream
actually did test. This he can reason
out about as follows: II n per cent
space measures OF c. C. and the sp.
or. OF butter fat is 0.S, then one per
cent spaces weighs 0.9xo.2 equals .lS
grams. The butter fat OF the test II
was found filled a space of 6 per cent,
n this multiplied by liz gives 1.Oo
grams of fat which must have come
from the 5 grams OF cream originally
weighed into the test bottle. All that
1t is necessary to do now Is to n
what per cent the 1.08 or. of fat Is oil
the 8 gr. OF cream (1.OSx100) divided by
s equals ZIG per cent, which is the test
of the cream. From this demonstra-
ton the following rule may be formed:
To find the test of a weighed quantity
of cream multiply the fat reading by
1S and divide the product by the
amount of cream weighed into the
test bottle.

RINEHART's INDIAN PICTURES.

In the summer of 1898 the Govern
ment Indian Bureau invited all tribes
OF Indians in this country to send dele
gates to an Indian Congress, and they
gathered from far and near with their
ponies and tepees and gaudiest trap
pings in the Exposition Grounds at
Omaha. Never before had there been
and never again will there be such a
gathering. There were about five hun
bred of them, some partly civilized, but
the greater portion picturesque in
original savagery. Strange as 1t may
seem at this late day many Of the In
dams declared that before coming to
Omaha they had no idea what multi
tudes of white men there were or how
hopeless it was to try to stand against
them. This was probably the last time
that so complete and spectacular a
view of the North American Indian
will be possible and those who had the
privilege Of witnessing it are to be
counted fortunate. At the time of the
Indian Congress a prominent pho
tographer obtained permission to take
the photographs of the most noted
chiefs present and succeeded N obtain
ing a collection which never will be
equaled. Mr.. Rinehart, the photograph
er, copyrighted all these pictures and
placed in q few art stores some hand
colored proofs which, Notwithstanding
their high price, sold at once, and these
Indian pictures have become the fad Of
the year. The Chicago Great Western
Railway has succeeded at large expense
in obtaining from Mr.. Rinehart the
privilege Of reproducing the best four
of these pictures, Chiefs "Wolf Robe"
"Louison," Hollow Horn Bear and
Hattie Tom" and have Incorporated
them in an art calendar for 1900, which
is pronounced the most artistic produc-
ton yet attempted. The heads are
6xS inches, one on sheet, wonderfully
reproduced in all their original colors,
and when framed make most striking
and effective pictures, particularly
suited for holiday gifts. Owing to the
expense but a very small edition has
been issued. They will be sent, how
ever, while the supply lasts to any per-
son sending 20 cents in stamps or silver
to cover the royalty charges and the
expense of packing and mailing to F..

Quoted a diamond store in Seattle. She
had appeared in vaudeville, and de-
cided to continue her theatrical career
in the Alaskan mining town, where
salaries were said to be dazzlingly
high, and money easier to make than
at home, SO the pretty, adventurous
young diamond dealer betook herself
to pastures new. Snow pastures they
were, but remunerative, nevertheless.
Then the gambling fever got into her
veins. Now when this fever finds its
way into a woman's veins, it is In
variably fatal-that is, fatal to peace of
mind and the moral sense, for it goes
straightway to the brain of its victim,
binding her to the consequences OF
her folly, d~eafening her ears to the still,
small voice of conscience. The con-
frmed woman gambler is a more pitia-

cause she is certain to sink eventually
to ever lower levels of recklessness

becomes as coldly metallic in his nerv-
Gus system as the coin he covets. His
nerves, in fact, are nerves of steel.
When a woman CANDLES she becomes
historically excitable in her nervous
system. The eventual result is one OF
two things: she either commits sui
eide. or is herself committed to a mad
house, for gambling is sure to shatter
her nerves. Which, then, will be the
fate of pretty Rose Blumpkin? Dawson
is not concerning itself with the des-
tiny of it's girl gambler. Dawson has
not responsibility in the matter. If a
woman chooses to do startling things
that lead to mental, moral or financial
disaster, whose is the blame? Sensa-
tions of the ~girl-gambler kind are rare,
ever in Dawson, where sensations OF
various kinds are by no means lacking.
To Dawson she is merely a new di-
version. Miss Blumpkin is one of the
best-dressed women in the vaudeville
world, and her good looks attract So
tention wherever She appears. Her
luck as a patroness of the green cloth
enables ner to gown herself expen-
sively and to wear many jewels. Her

The Best Cure for Diseases.

There is one simple remedy that
seldom fails when a number of hens
become droopy, refuse to lay, and
shown signs of bowel disease. In
nlnety-nine cases among one hundred
the difficulties encountered are due to
indigestion, which arises from over
feeding. BY Withholding all food for
three or four days a cure will nearly
always result without the aid of medi-
cines, says Poultry Keeper. When
hens are fat it is difficult to injure
them by three or -four days fasting,
as they are then well provided with
the stored fat on their bodies. Before
they can starve they must first become
poor in flesh. The fasting, however,
enables the hens to become clear of
the cause of the ailment, rests the di-
gestive organs, and enables them to
better digest any food that may then
be allowed. When three or four days
expire in fasting them, then live only
one meal per day for a week, allowing
lean meat, one pound to twenty hens,
and the change of diet will also prove
of advantage. Hundreds of remedies
have been suggested for ailments of
poultry, which require time and labor;
but the best and most harmless remedy
is to follow the method suggested
above. and the result win seldom be
disappointing.
Alfalfa on Thin Soils.-It must be
steadfastly borne in mind that alfalfa
is not II any sense a plant for poor
soils. In sterile clay, in hungry sands
and g~ravels, in peat soils there are a
hundred plants that will pay better.
These clay soils need draining and
manuring. The peaty soils perhaps
will never grow 1t well, yet In natur-
ally very poor clays we have had re-
markably luxuriant alfalfa after 1t had
become we'll established. = National

PIKE

Washington Letter: A memorial
statue is to be erected at the national
capital as a testimonial of the Scottish
Rite Order of Free Masons of the
southern jurisdiction of the United
States for General Albert Pike, who
devoted nearly half a century of his
life to their interests, and with whose
name the order in America is insepara-
bly, associated. Tentanove is at work
on this statue at Florence, Italy. AS
far as may be judged from photographs
of the model lately received from the
studio of the artist, this statue will be
a noble work of art and will long re-
main an enduring monument of the
great Mason whom it represents. 1t is
to be of bronze, royal size, being twelve
feet in height, and mounted upon a
pedestal of granite twenty-five feet
high. 1t will stand at the corner OF
Indiana avenue and D street, and it is
estimated will cost, when completed,
about SIS, 000. 1t is to be dedicated on
the centennial anniversary of the es-
adjustment of the first lodge of the
