Why Jerseys Became Richest.
A correspondent remarks:

A correspondent remarks:
Gas matter of interesting
speculation, why is it that the
Jersey or Channel Island COW gives
milk SO much richer in butter fat or
cream than any other breed of dairy
COWS? There are really but
three breeds of dairy cattle that can
lay any claim to being a breed:
Jersey or Guernsey, Ayrshire and
Holstein. ITO get at the formative
period of these breeds we must go
back about one hundred years,
where we find historic facts very
thin and far apart. There is no
evidence that any man or set of
men went deliberately to work to
create any one of these breeds, or
had any specific idea or purpose in
view. Each and all Of them appear
to have grown up under peculiar
environments that forced the result
as we now have it. In those days
no one thought of valuing milk by
its butter fat contents, and after a
hundred years of breeding we find
these breeds producing about this
ratio of butter fat: Holstein ~,
Ayrshire 3 q, Jersey ~.
"The purpose for which the COWS
were used by those who bred them
constitute the environment 50 far as
butter fat was concerned. The
HollandeL iu those days raised milk
almost for the sole purpose of
making Edam cheese-a most ex-
cellent cheese in quality. but,
strange to say, it is made from
partly skinned milk. Here there
was no need for breeding fat in the
milk, but there should have been
greater proportion of casein. The
Jersey COW was on an island and at
time that commune alton with the
mainland was too slow and un-
certain for delivering milk. The
inhabitants (the owners of the cows)
could easily sell butter that could
stand the delay in transportation to
the cities of the mainland, the
islanders never having taken to
The Ayrshire had
her home market for milk and but
ter, SO she divided her fat product
halfway between the butter COW and
the skim cheese COW. Jersey Bull

Why's for the PRINTER.

Even as misery loves company,
and as it comforts a peasant who
is grief-stricken to know that king
also nurses SORROW, SO il is balm to
observe the groanings and gnashings
of Ambrose Bierce the long distance
correspondent of Pacific coast
paper, over the Iaings that com
positors do to him.
Bierce writes a peculiar ''hand,
and suppose that the intelligent,
deserves no better treatment than
it gets. Bierce, however, can not
see it in this way, and hence come
such bursts Of grief as the following.
the like of which Bierce has emitted
at intervals for, 10. these many
years:
"To all editors, proofreaders and
compositors to whom these presents
shall come, greeting: May dogs not
walk upon your graves. These,
therefore,, are the things which l
do not know: Why you print
heaven with a little h and Harris
burg with a big one; earth with
little and Bermuda with big b;
.hell' with little h and kansas

Their Office in Danger.

Two terrified horses, a traction en-
CINE and an excited small boy were
objects of interest to n large crowd
one day last week on Fifth venue
and it was only by prompt action on
the part OF bystanders that a smash
up was averted.
The team, which belonged to j. j.
Thompson OF Cottonwood, was left
in charge of a, small boy while the
owner was up town %transacting bus
mess. The engine belonging to a
~threshing outfit made its appearance
on the scene and the hitherto quiet
and docile horses were transformed
into rampant steeds with n decided
inclination to gain the open prairie
by stampeding through the office oil
Stone & Long.
One horse got on to the sidewalk,
slipped and fell and brought the
Estampede to a finish by getting bis
head underneath the walk before any
serious damage was accomplished.
The team was unhitched and by
the aid OF many willing hands was
soon Strengthened around SO that
they we're able to realize the error o'
their ways.

Philbrook this week, with the result
that she was committed to the asy-

The unfortunate lady has been SUBJ

some time past and once before was
the inmate of an institution for the
treatment of mental diseases.
Thomas Rooney, her son, has
been appointed as her legal guardian
and the proceedings were instituted
only after Mrs. Rooney had become
SO bad that it was found impossible
to giveher the necessary attention at
home.
Mrs. Rooney was taken to the
railroad yesterday morning by her
nephew, VIII Mitchell, and her SON.

accompany her to the asylum and
place her In the care of the proper

Ihowell's Latest Plea.

When on trial before Il jury OF his
peers Milton Howell's defense was
that Rolling had attacked him and
that he cred the fatal shot in defense
of his own life. At that time he con
tended that Rolling had not been
shot from the rear, but the states
witnesses proved the facts in thecase
beyond IA question Of doubt and
HOwell's plea awaited him little In
the face Of the ample contradictory
evidence. The state did not deem 1t
necessary to produce before the trial
Jury either the body or the skull Of
Thomas Rozling-the coroner's jury
which had examined the remains,
the attending physician and Others
were On hand to testify where the
bullets entered and whichcourse they
took. The defense mighthavecaused
the body of Rolling to be exhumed
and the skull or portions produced
but they did not-for reasons best
known to themselves.
Now ut this time, when Howell IL
sentenced to pay the penalty for his
Grim the assassin asked the court to
have the body of his victim taken up
In order to prove that the bullets did
not enter from the rear. After hav-
"
ing been buried for over three years
it would be manifestly impossible to
prove anything by those remains.
The small bones Of the skull have
doubtless fallen apart long before
this time and the bullet hole become
greatly enlarged by decay, II not OBJ
liberated.
At the time of trial such evidence
would have been timely; when a new
trial was being asked the request
that the body be exhumed would not
have been out Of place and might
have had weight with the court.
When Howell's case was being plead
ed before the supreme court such
offer OF evidence might have been
considered, though this is doubtful.
But as Judge Cheadle remarked I'm
passing sentence, the time for such
an examination has long since
passed and the interjection of that
plea mt this time must either be con-
sidered as n serious reflection upon
his attorneys or a deliberate attempt
to bolster up an exceedingly weak
request for communication by casting
n doubt upon facts amply proven at
the time, but which at this late day
cannot be further substantiated.
1t might be added, however that
perhaps the shirt worn by Rolling
when he was killed Is In safe keeping
and II SO, those who may view that
grewsome relic OF the cowardly
tragedy will find the bullet hole In
the back OF the shirt and notin front,
Unfortunately no covering remains
to likewise show. that the bullet
which entered the base Of the brain,
also came from the rear.

eral other witnesses were examined
and corroborated the testimony OF
Hugh Green, and on Frank Connolly
being put on the stand almost iden-

During his examination Connolly
said that he and the Green boy were

gun was loaded and that he was on

nothing worse than carelessness and
