UNDER MARTIAL Law
Cape Town District Placed Un.
der Control Of the British
Military.
More Vigorous Measures Taken
to End the War in Cape
Colony.
Botha Said to Be Fighting His
Way North on Natal
Border.

Cape Town, Oct 1o.-Martial law has
been proclaimed in the Cape Town dis
trict and at Wynberg, Simon's Town.
Port Elizabeth and East London.
The proclamation is the outcome OF
the recent visit of the premier of Cape
Colony, Sir Gordon sprigg. and the UNI
Ger secretary Of native affairs in south
Africa, j. Rose lines, to the British high
commissioner, Lord Miner.
1t places under military control the
few points in Cape Colony hitherto ex-
empted, and the constitution therefore
is now suspended over the entire colony
This action probably foreshadows the
commencement of vigorous measures
which those on the spot are understood
to believe necessary to end the war.
Martial law will be modified in Its APP
plication to the ports by leaving the
DOCKS railroads and harbors under the
control of the civil authorities. Military
rule will be mitigated in some other re-
spects.

Building For Raising Squads.

A practical pigeon breeder gives the
following directions for building: A
few explanations as to the building
and its fixtures, which may be termed
as breeding houses, may interest the
readers. As | said before, any part
Of the barn could be used. The south
ern exposure is always preferred, as
it is warmer. but If no building is
suitable erect a building of cheap hem
lock lumber. This building should
be made so that additions can be add
ed at either end without injuring the
other part. 1t should be built upon
dry ground, facing the south, and be
about nine feet high front, seven feet
high back, ten feet wide, and any de-
sired length; divided into rooms eight
feet wide; each room will comfortably
house thirty pairs or sixty old birds.
A window is to be put in each pen on
the south side; also on the south side
must be the cages. These are made
twelve feet wide, seven feet high, and
as long as the building. To CORE
spond with the rooms inside, the
cage must be divided into cages eight
feet wide. Use regular poultry net
ting, one or two-inch mesh, and wire
over top as well to keep them enclosed.
The interior of the breeding house
must be fitted up with nests, similar
to chicken nests, but somewhat small
er. These nests should be two feet
long, a foot wide and a foot high. A
partition six inches high must be put
in the centre of each nest, thereby
making two nests a foot wide. This is
done as each pair requires two nests.
When n nest is built the eggs are
laid, and Immediately they commence
setting 1.-THE male bird taking part
also, and in eighteen days the eggs
hatch. The parents care for the young
until they are two weeks old, when
they commence building in the adj
joining nest, and lay other eggs, there
by having eggs and squads all the year
round, excepting a few months during
the moult. In the outside cage have a
receptacle for water. This must be
given fresh every day, and several
times a day in summer on warm days.

A young and lovely woman com
mitted suicide the other day under
circumstances the most heartless in
their origin, the most piteous in their
outcome. Several months ago the vic
TINS sweetheart died, and her grief
and longing, by some process incon-
ceivable to normal minds, seemed fit
matter to several of her girl COM
panions for a practical joke. With a
refinement of cruelty, cunningly util.
izing a speaking tube, they initiated
the dead mans voice. Come with
mel" it said to her, and she God pity
herb did her best. Not so much in
the passing agony of her quick re.
Spouse as in the pitiful unpromise of
the life whose ending shows it might
have been so true, is there a memory
whip for those who made an unseen,
ly jest of a love within whose shadow
they should go bent and penitent
through their days.

University at Lawrence, but left after
finishing his sophomore year.
Mr.. Funston was employed on a
newspaper at Fort Smith, Ark. 1t
was not very profitable. He then
went on a botanical expedition to
Death Valley in the following year
and later to ChilkOot Pass in n biz
gard. At the head of the Yukon he
built a canoe. in which he went down
to the Klondike country, where Dnw-
son City is now situated.
General Funston two years later
| made arrangements with the Cuban
Junta to enlist as n Northumberland
in the Army of Liberation, Joined a
filbustering expedition and landed at
Camaguey in August of 1896. He be
came second in command in charge of
artillery to w. Dana Osgood, and had
much hard fighting. Osgood vas killed
by a Spanish bullet, and Funston as
sumed command. At Bayamo he led
a cavalry charge with 500
mounted Cubans attacking $500 Span
ish infantry. At Las Tunas Funston
was shot and had his horse killed
under him. The horse fell on him.
| Although Funston was badly wound

| protested against the execution Of fif-
ty Cuban guerillas, who were cap
tured, fighting under the Spanish flag.
Funston returned to New York City
in 1898. When wal with Spain was
declared Funston at once offered his
services to President Mckinley. He
was commissioned colonel of the
Twentieth Kansas, and was afterward
offered a position on General Miles's
staff, because of his knowledge of
Cuba.
Funston fought through the Spanish
war and then returned to Kansas,
| later going to California, where he
was married. Six hours later he
sailed with his regiment for Manila.
The Kansas soldiers who had writ
ten home about General Funston told
Of how, although suffering from a
lame leg, he slept on the firing line,
and how he led the charges. File was
with his regiment when it charged
into Caloocan and was the first white
soldier to enter Malolos. He was the
first American officer to cross the
river at Calumpit.
General Funston was charged in
May, 1900, with summarily executing
two natives in the Province of Fam.

Funston caught the natives in the very

circumstances was considered iustif.

Certain defects in III present meth
IDS of Furnishing crime are pointed
out in the Nineteenth Century by the
London Assistant Commissioner of
Police. DR.. Anderson finds that the
short sentence for thieving and burg
larry has no deterrent effect, being
reckoned by the offender as a regular
chance of the business. SO far his
study confirms the growing favor of
the i~ndeterminate sentence. Not en-
tirely, however, for he finds no eli
fective method for checking the alarm
ing increase in the number of profes
sional criminals short OF a life sen
tence on the second offence. and pro
poses only this mitigation that the
few cases of assured reform should be
discharged. He argues that we should
not try to punish crime already com
mitted, but look to the safety of so
ciety for the future, and he does moi
see how this is to be assured short Of
the permanent detention Of the incor
rlgible criminal.

Latest Methods in Potato Cultivation.
If sod land or land inclined to be
heavy, carefully cross plow and thor
oughly harrow, using, if necessary, a
~leveler or fine tooth harrow in order
that the soil may be well pulverized,
after which planting may be done. OF
course, 1t is well understood that good
crops cannot be raised from poor seed,
ind the wideawake farmer will plant
only strong, vigorous seed potatoes

different experiment stations in cut
ing seed potatoes that the highest

our eyes to the piece.
The plan of using rather heavy land,
specially if clayey, for the growing
potatoes would not ordinarily be a
good one, at least, except for dry sea
ions. 1t would certainly be hazardous
IN such land to in drills, as it
would be likely to result in a crop bad

Iced, the ordinary amount of help that

acreage without adopting improved
methods.
With an improved planter two men

he horses walk. The second man is

cultivation are largely the same in any

As the plants reach a height of two

Cavalry horses are not being given
away nowadays. Bids We're opened at
Omaha the other day for 400 horses
for the newly organized Fourteenth
Cavalry at Fort Levenworth. The
bids ranged from $3.50 to $50 a horse,
a pretty stiff price, but what was the
Quartermaster's Department to do?
The cavalry must have good horses
and good horses come high. 1t will be
some time before the cavalry can be
equipped with automobiles. The i'm
pulsive persons who have had tears to
she'd over the decline and fall of the
horse were decidedly premature,

that farming is becoming more popu-

followed is as sure and good a bust

but it is the most certain and the most

NEWS OF THE A
Curiosity Brought Disaster.

In order tc see how much spray.
ing material there was in a bar
rel of crude petroleum on the
farm of d. H. Burge. A. B. Avis,
a hardware merchant, at Vineland, ig-
nited a match and held it over the
bung hole of the barrel. His curiosity
was satisfied in a most striking man
ner, for there followed a terrific explo-
sion. Avis and Mrs. Burge, who was
standing beside the barrel, were
knocked down and severely burned by
flames which ignited the barn. Both
had great difficulty in escaping, Mrs.
Burge being so badly stunned that she
had to be helped from the building.
The stock and nearly all the cattle per-
ished. The insurance on the barn ex-
PRED a few days ago and was not re-
