Shipped 5000 Squads.

The people of Franklin county,
says Public Opinion, may not gen.
orally know it but one of the most
thriving industries of Quincy
township is that conducted by
John w. Whitmore, who is engag-
ed in the pigeon business. He
has very compile te establish
ment, well equipped with all the
necessary conveniences for the
birds and makes use of three
buildings, each of which has a
yard attached to it, enclosed with
poultry wire so that the birds do
not escape. The main building
is 100 feet long with a yard the
same length. The other build
ings are 25x25 and 30x12, re-
spectively. At present Mr.. Whit
more has 1900 breeders in stock.
During 1900 he shipped about
5000 squads and this year his
shipments will aggregate 5000
squads. Mr.. Whitmore kills and
dresses the squads, after which
they are packed in boxes and
shipped to New York City, where
he finds an excellent market and
where he supplies some of the
most prominent hotels and res
taurants. 1t requires all the at
tention and time of Mr.. Whit
more to properly care for his
birds, but his industry is well re-
warded by the returns he gets
for his efforts.

The teachers of Dublin town
ship held their fifth local insti-
tute at Huston's school on Fri
day evening, December 13, 1901.
The house was called to order by
the teacher, Miss Fleming, who
appointed E. B. Cline president,
and Miss Anna Doran secretary.
The first question, "Duties of
Pupils, Patrons, Directors and
Teachers, was well discussed by
Prof. B. G. Lamberson, Miss
Doran, p. j. Barton, H. o. While,
E. B. Cline, and others, who said
that both teachers and patron S
duties are very great, and had
them outlined on the blackboard.
Second question, "How You
Teach Neatness, Politeness, Ac-
curacy, Promptness, and Punct-
uality," was discussed by P. j.
Barton, H. o. While, B. G. Lam
berson, Misses Doran and Flem-
ing, Mr.. Cline, and r. S. Her
shey, who said we can teach most
of these by example.
Third question, "How Secured
and Benefit Derived from the
Public School Library" was
opened by II. S. Hershey, who
says the value of the Library is
very great if the right kind of
books are secured, and if not, it
would be of vast harm. He says
there are different ways of secur-
ing it-by entertainments and by
subscriptions, preferring the lat
ter. B. S. Lam berson followed
by saying that it would be better
to put a child in good library
than in school where there was
no library. H. o. While believes
in the children furnishing the IL
brary by the teachers help to Sc
cure the books.
The discussions were inter
spersed by well rendered music
and recitations given by the
school. A song sang by two
girls was much appreciated. The
closing address, "Good Bye
was given by Ethel Long.

Stabbed His Brother.

j. V. Hornbaker made narrow
escape from death or serious in
jury on Monday evening and that
at the hands of his brother, West
Hornbaker, at his home in the
Corner. West it seems had made
a trip over the mountain to a
neighboring distillery and re-
turned to the corner feeling fit to
do the battle of his life. He en-.
tered the home Of his brother,
James, who lives near the foot of
the mountain on the Dun's Gap
road, and becoming boisterous,
was ordered from the house.
This he refused to do and declar.
ed that the man didn't live who
could eject him. James then
took him by the arm and asked
him to go out. West opened a
pocket knife and attacked his
brother. The first slash made a
deep cut in the heart of the hand
of the other brother. The man
was evidently crazed with liquor
and passion, for he continued in
his frantic efforts to bury the
knife in his brothers. head until
the latter had several severe
wounds and his clothing bore
evidence of numerous cuts. JAS.
finally knocked him down with a
chunk of wood and went out OF
the house. West followed and
again began the attack with the
knife, and succeeded in cutting
James in the forehead. James
finally succeeded in getting q
good sized club which subdued
West somewhat. The tier,
mother and other members of the
family were present, doing all in
their power to quiet the distur
bance. Many neighbors were al
so attracted to the scene by the
screams of the women. 1t is
said that James will make infor
