Emperor William has ordered that
the study of English shall replace that
of French in the high schools of Ger
many. Formerly every educated per-
son in every civilized country knew his
own language and French. Now he
must know his own language and Eng
lish. Before long he will have to know
English whether he knows his own
language or not.

s should never be fed alone to a
Ery COW.
Sheep do not like to be kept in too
close quarters.
Feed the cows succulent food if you
want plenty of milk.
A fat COW is not a desirable animal
to have in a dairy herd.
Never close up can of warm milk
unless it has been aerated.
Don't keep animals that take too
much time to go to market.
If the cows do not have comfort yon
cannot expect them to do well.
The smaller breeds are generally the
best when early maturity is desired.
Red clover aosumulates more nitro
gen than any other leguminous crop.
The quality of the butter is what
tells the story as to the ability of tho
maker.
Rape, enclosed with movable fence,
makes an excellent pasturage for
sheep.
In ventilating your dairy buildings
take away air from the bottom as well
as the top.
If you have not provided the sheep
with plenty of roots give them an ex-
ira allowance of bran.
It's easy to tell good dairy COW. 1t
is the COW that produces the most milk
every year on the least food.
If your we'll is a shallow one clean
Il out at the first opportunity. Foul
water is bad for both man and beast.
The reason so many breeders are
working toward early maturity is that
their experience has proven that it
pays.
Any kind of stock is worth at least
a pasturage on land that has been
ploughed and sown with nutritious
4 grasses.
4 The man who feeds scrub COW, and
lgUesses at her product as we'll, is play
ms at chance game without any show
Of winning.
The dairy farmer should have good
land and good cows. and see to II that
he is good dairyman himself. All
this goes toward making good milk
and good butter.
Too much hog manure is wasted.
Every shovelful should be saved and
used. Hog manure probably ranks
next to sheep manure, which you all
Know to be very valuable.

ONE of the professors at the Yerkes
observatory announces with great ella
tion, that he has discovered how
worlds are madei The modus is very
simple: A lot of gaseous matter gets
together and forms nebulae, and the
nebulae gets together and forms
worlds. He doesn't tell US where the
gaseous matter comes from, nor how it
gets together, but he says he has
caught it in the act, and that the
changes he has detected, occurred with
in few hours. This does not agree
with the theories heretofore held by
the nebulists that it takes millions of
years to get up little planet like the
earth, but none of them ever before
detected mature" as they call it, 60
ing through the act of making world.
We are holding our breath, lest it
shall be discovered that some Trust is
living low to throw its lasso around the
whole Job lot of worlds that the Pro-
fessor has discov cred in embryo forma-
tion, and to pocket the universe, in
time.

SCALE CLIFF 200 FEET HIGH.
A new Feature of Warfare In
ausurated by Americans
In Philippines.

Manila, November 20.-Major L. W.
T. Waller, of the marine corps, has ca
bled Rear Admiral Rodgers, at Manila,
q full and detailed account of the at
tack, November !, by the men of his
command upon the rebel stronghold at
Sojoton, near Basey, island of Samar.
Three insurgent camps were destroy
ed, forty bamboo cannon were captur-
ed, and much rice and other stores de-
stroyed. The rebel stronghold was al
most impregnable. The trails leading
to it were lined with poisoned spears,
sticking from the ground, and were fill
ed with hidden pitfalls. Major Walters
command attacked the enemy unexpect-
edly. To do this they had to scale a
cliff two hundred feet high. This they
climbed barefooted and over bamboo
ladders. At the top they found bould.
ers piled ready to precipitate upon an
attacking party.
Major Waller Gays he was personally
not present at the action. He p.aiss s
Captain David D. Porter and Captain
Hiram L. Beares for their splendid
work, and says too much praise cannon
be given the marines themselves, whose
behavior he characterizes as bril-
liant in every respect. The major coz
siders the scaling of cliffs two hundred
feet high as a new feature Of warfare
and says such men would be able to dt
anything anywhere. Thirty of the
enemy were killed, The marines sus
tanned few trifling wounds.

Dickinson Asks Bulgaria to Use
Troops to Capture Miss
Stones Kidnappers.

Sofia, November 19.-It is reported
that Mr.. Dickinson, the United States

the government of Bulgaria that the
abductors of Miss Ellen M. Stone and
Nine. Tsika, with their captives are
concealed in defile of the Belleritza
Mountains, near Smotch, district of
Dubnitza, and has requested that
troops be sent to surround the place
and liberate the captives. Both Mr..
Dickinson and the Bulgarian Foreign
Office decline to deny or confirm this
report. Nevertheless, it is believed
that Mr.. Dickinson, persuaded of the
impossibility Of coming to terms with
the brigands, and relying upon his
belief that they will not harm their
captives If troops are employed against
them, has, after consulting with Wash
ington, decided upon this move.
Only eight bandits now guard Mis-:
Stone, and some of these are known tt

FORAKER'S ESTIMATE
INDICATED by the Official Count

The total'vote Of the State has been
published and it shows a splendid gain
for the Republicans. We give the vote
and pluralities of the several candl-
dates in another column.
The first news as to the result in the
State, received early on the night Of
the election, was dispatch stating that
Foraker said the Republican majority
in the State would be $4,000. This
was received with cheers by the Re-
publicans. But some, who can never
believe good news to be true, said the
news in the morning would cut the ma
iority down.
Sure enough, the next morning, the
papers put the Republican majority in
the State at 60,0C0-and many Repub-
licans were thankful for that much Of q
gain.
But the official vote just published
fully vindicates Senator Foraker's es-
innate and shows his political acumen.
These official returns show that the
average majority Of the seven candi-
dates on the Republican ticket Is TO-
999, within one vote of 80, ,0OO,) while
the majority of Judge Price, for Su-
preme Judge is "a, 662.
The Senator is good interpreter of
the signs of the times.

TOO Delicate to Discuss" !"

Knoxville, Tenn, November 90
Following the report that the Court of
Inquiry would cost Admiral Schey
$40, 200, the Knoxville Sentinel on
November sent the admiral dis
patch asking if he would consent to
public subscriptions to pay the amoant.
Today the Sentinel received personal
letter from Admiral Schley, the pur-
port of which was that he cannot ac-
cept the offer. He says the report as
to the cost is mistake, as the amount
is not nearly so great. He suggests
that the matter is 'too delicate to dis
cuss," and trusts that his friends will
appreciate his position and respectit." "
