One feature absolutely unique In
history characterized the Mckinley
obsequies. 1t was the silencing OF the.
telegraph. Never before, since cleo
tricity was first put to use as a means
of communication has there taken
place, it is said, anything paralleling
even in a small way what was done
that afternoon on a scale that was
gigantic. Upon orders, the entire
telegraph system was suddenly hushed
for five minutes at 2:30 p. M, the
hour set for lowering the presidents
body into the grave ait Canton At
that moment on all the huge network
Of wires from the Atlantic to the Pa
cifc not a sounder in the land gave
a single tick, and the great ocean
cables were pulseless as the corpse OF
the Latte chief magistrate himself. The
cessation OF the telegraph for such 2 q
cause, or, indeed for any reason, is
without a precedent In the worlds
uecord. 1t is estimated that fully
100000 telegraph operators thus sim
ultaneously paid homage to the mem
CRY of President Mckinley. The total
number OF miles Of wire affected was
upwards OF q million and a quarter.
IN the Western Union Chicago office
the hundreds OF operators all arose at
their desks when the moment came
and, joining their voices, sang with
deep feeling the presidents hymn,

UTE TO DEAD STATESMAN.
Wheeling West Virginia, News:
Former Governor jos. DeVine, now
state superintendent of schools in:
North Dakota, has just returned to.
his native town for a weeks stay with
and friends. He brought with
him his sister, Miss Belle Deyine, a
teacher in the Eighth ward school of
this city. and his little daughter.
When asked about the sentiment in
North Dakota with regard to the presi-
dents death and the attitude toward
his successor, MI. Divine said:
We have one advantage in the,
west; we have no c%ongested centers,
and consequently there are no anar-
chistic tendencies in Our men, and I
doubt if we even shall have. The.
west was particularly appreciative OF
President Mckinley, and was in thor
oqgh sympathy with his administra-
ton of affairs. They looked upon him
as the one man who presented in his
life and his close sympathy with the
masses the essential elements which
have given to Lincoln the love and
generation of the people. It is a re-
markable and unfortunate fact that
the one man who had, above all others
on the stump and in the halls OF con-
,gress devoted all his life to the cause
of the people, ait the very height of his.
power and with the echo of his last
triumph ringing around and about;
him, should fall by the hand OF a mis-
guided assassin,
.But his beautiful, his magnificent
struggle from comparative poverty,
his successive achievements with no
afiuent friends or rich relatives to.
back him: his heroism on the field of.
battle in the greatest civil war the
world ever saw; his leadership in de-
bate in the greatest representative
body on this earth; his splendid man
agement of the war with Spain, and
his elear-sighted sagacity and far
reaching penetration in meeting and
successfully settling the complicated
questions arising therefrom place him
in the esteem of all thinking people
alongside Of our great moral leaders
Washington and Lincoln.
These things together with his
beautiful home life, has eVer kindly.

KANSAS TORN APART.
Cracks In the Fields In Some Places
Big Enough for Cows to
Fail In,

The attention of the Kansas state
board of agriculture has been called tc
occurrences which are mystif,in the
alfalfa farmers of Jewell and Republic
counties. IT is reported that great
cracks and sink holes are appearing in
the alfalfa fields there. says Topeka
correspondent of the New York Sun.
The cracks are some etimes rods in
length, from two to six feet in depth,
and from one to ten feet wide. They
appear only in alfalfa fields, and the
farmers have never before seen any,
thing like them.
They do not come gradually. but
suddenly. 1t is becoming dangerous to
drive team across alfalfa fields be-
cause the ground may suddenly sink
beneath it.
Some section hands were working on
railroad track few days ago near
an alfalfa field on the farm of Edward
Randall, not far from Jewell City. They
heard a COW low but there was no cow
in sight. The sound seemed TO come
from under the ground.
They made a search and discovered
the COW in an alfalfa sink hole, several
feet below the surface. The cow was so
weak that she could not stand after
she had been dug out.
The alfalfa plants have very long
roots. One theory is that I hese roots
loosen he ground so hat il is washed

TROUT KILLED CRAVINGS.
The Fish COMmiHsion Failed to Allow
for Poetic License ana Lost
Their Fish,

Sportsmen will rejoice to know that
the government fish commission seems
10 have solved the problem of propa.
eating graylng. There are very few
grayling streams in the world. and a
few of those are in the United States.
Two of the best are in northern
Michigan and the rest in Montana,
The grayling inhabils streams similar

and take practically the same baitand
the same flies. In the Michigan
streams trout were painted with the
grayling. says the New York Times,
for the fish commission believed that
if Tennyson's brook could hold
Here and there lusty trout, and here and
there grayling,"
the brooks of Michigan could be made
to do likewise. But they failed to al
low for poetic license, and discovered
when too late that the trout DESTROYED
their little rivals. An attempt was
made to propagate the disappearing
fish, but the attempt failed. Then
some one noticed that the grayling of
Montana seemed to be of a different
variety. and more hardy. The commits
sion tried these and is succeeding ad-
l6lrably in their propagation.

greatly beyond their usual volume, and
the Conestoga creek has overflowed its

ITEMS FROM

New Castle, Dec. 31.-Yesterday
was muskrat day between New Cas-.
tie and Delaware City. The heavy
rains caused all the marshes to bt
covered with water and consequently
the muskrats were driven from thsil
dens and as the cars went whizzine
along the road to Delaware City,
scores of the rats were seen along
banks of the road. Several gunners
took advantage Of the occasion and
as a result several rats were for sup.
per. Wild ducks we're plentiful and
many a gunner brought down a paif
OF ducks. On the marshes near New
Castle the gunners found the musk
rats in goodly numbers.
The damage to the trolley road
caused by the heavy rains has been
repaired. There was no delay caus-
ed to the cars.

Millionaire Colorado Miner Allows
None Killed ON His Mining
| Property.

Thomas F. Walsh, of Washington.
who is owner of the Camp Bird''
mine in Colorado, gives evidence in
the naming of this marvelously rich
piece of gold-producing property OF
his Observation-Disclosures SO far as birds
and harmless beastssare concerned.
Not only has he named his mine after
the pests of his early prospecting
days, but all along the road leading
from the mine to the quartz mill are
posted notices which read
"Notice-Birds and harmless beasts
must not be killed on this property.
1t is cruel, also it is against the law.
Amy employe of the Camp Bird mine
needlessly killing or cruelty treating
any bird or animal will be dis
charged"
Camp birds" are Mr.. Walsh's spe.
cial favorites. Long before he owned
the mine which has made him envied
by kings Mr.. Walsh found the soil.

lttle camp followers. No prospector
is long in the mountains before being
discovered by these birds and having
retinue of them in his train. They
follow when he moves his camp, and
sometimes remain a whole season
with one miner. They live on the
refuse of the camp and soon become
SO tame that they may be fed from
the hand. They are of most so.
