dismembered remains of an unknown man
were found in different parts of the city.
This murder came a challenge to the
police. Certain facts discovered and GER
tain differences, led to the belief that this
murder, too, had been committed by an Or
ganized gang. Working on this assump-
ton the police net was spread in all direc-
tions and daily hauls averaging hundreds
of malefactors have been made.
Hot and fast came more crimes-one,
another murder In the streets. In the imme
date neighborhood of the place where
part of the dismembered body had been
found only few days before Who knows?
Perhaps this was the work Of an untrapped
band swapping it's fingers at the police.
But the corralling Of the lawless still
continues, and Paris prisons today are

London are as a shrinking handful 20 the

"In those localities where, valuable land
is com pletely subdued by brush the goats
are considered of more value for the pur-
pose of clearing 1t than for their mohair
or meat. They thus become one of the
farmers important tools. Their value
in this, respect must be measured
by the value Ssf :, the land which
they will render cultivable. 1t is said that
in Oregon, where Chinamen had been paid
as, high as $40 acre, for clearing off
brush goats had done the work even bet
ter. Sprouts win spring up behind mems
work, but goats will keep them down un-
til they cease to appear. True, the goats
require more time than men, but their
work is better.
lone Of the first questions to be con-
sidered by man who is about to embark
in stock raising Of any kind Is the markets
for his surplus. This question is first be-
cause 1t is the principal one and all i'm
portant. The one who proposes to begin
with a flock of Thoroughbred or high-grade
Angoras, such as will yield merchantabie

focks will be built up in the future, as
they have been in the past, by the use of
does Of the common breed. 1t will be as
certained that the fleece OF low grades is
barely worth the cost of clipping it; that
the skin is not SO valuable for leather as
that Of the common goat; and that, as
rug or robe. the peIts are not so valuable
as those of the higher grades. Therefore,
if there is to be any profit from this part
Of flock, there must be market for the
meat.
1.-THE reason goats are not seen oftener
In the market reports Of receipts and ship
ments Is that they pass as sheep. 1t Is
stated, however, that increasing numbers
are seen in the larger markets. In the
Union stock yards Of Chicago as many as
5000 were received in one week last year.
While the goats pass as sheep, they are
also sold to consumers as sheep. The diff
ference is very slight in some places. In
Kansas City, for instance. the sheep bring
about one-half a cent per pound more than
goats. The packers buy them as goats
and sell them as sheep in the form of dress
ed meat or canned"

Quaker Longevity.
From the London Times.


correspondent writes: During the de-
nominational year ending in 1900 there
were reported the deaths of 299 members
Of the Society of Friends in Great Britain
and Ireland. The proportions were $50
males and 140 females. The average age
at death was q little over sixty-one years
seven months. A table compiled from the
returns shows that there is very limited
mortality of children, and that 1t is chiefly
In this respect that the death rate of the
Society Of Friends differs from that of the
general population. Only fourteen deaths
out of the 299 were reported as those OF
children under five years of age; between
five years and twenty years the number
was nine; between twenty and thirty years
the deaths were sixteen; and the same
number was that of the deaths between
thirty and forty years From forty to
fifty there were twenty-five deaths; from
fifty to sixty there were twenty-four: and
from sixty to seventy years there were
sixty-two deaths. From seventy to eighty
years the number was fifty-seven; and
from eighty to ninety years sixty-ntne
There were eight deaths Of Friends be-
tween ninety and one hundred years, and
there were two deaths Of persons over
one hundred years. One of the latter died
at Croydon in her one hundred and hrst
year; the other had passed one hundred
