From the Kew YORK ZIG

In 1864 William Henry Barber, a Lon
don lawyer, was convicted of forgery and
sentenced TO long term in one of the
British penal settlements. While under
going his sentence he was logged for
some trihing infraction of discipline. He
never held up his head again. ana though
after four years his innocence of the crime
for which he had been transported was
established, 1t was but the wreck OF a
man who returned 10 England to receive
the congratula tons OF his friends. IL
was the nogglng that had broken his
heart. Parliament, as a slight compensa-
ton for the chastisement, voted him S25-
600.
Within a few months after the Barber
case had been made pubic another limo
cent convict was found working in the
changang on Norfolk Island. He was a
former shopkeeper named Dunno. He was
at once pardoned, but that did not sat-
isfy him, for, like Barber, he had been
logged. As a salve for his sore back
the Australian coionists raised $1,000 BY
subscription and presented IL to him.
Dunno said that he never again wanted
to see England, and so he settled down
as a sheep farmer Ia Australia. He In.
vested his $4,000 so well that when he
died. twenty years ago. he was possessed

What the Cows WIZ Do.

VIM. Swim, of Deer Creek township,
was in the city yesterday, and while
in town he made this Office call and
gave us an inkling OF what his COWS
have done since June 1st to N0yen1-
Der l, 1901: Butter 625 pounds and
sold at an average of 15c per pound,
amounting to $93.75 and has raised
twenty head of calves which are today
worth $l2 head which together with
the butter would amount to 1898. 10
from twenty cows; besides having
plenty of milk and butter tor family
use. Mr.. Swim uses an automatic
milk separator which costs the small
sum of S.. He thinks that the farm
ers would profit more if they would
use the separator inStean of hauling
the milk to the sl1imming station.
1t might be little more labor but
the farmers woul realize more from
their COWS.
