as introduced from foreign countries.

He May Have Offices in Both
Dallas and San Antonio.

Dallas, Texas, July &c. Earnest
efforts are being made by the demo
Gratis OF Dallas to induce STATE
Chairman James B. Wells to locate
democratic headquarters IN this
city. Mayor CahelI, who has long
been personal and political friend
of Chairman Wells, and who sup
ported hin against Judge COckrell
Of Dallas, has been to see judge
Wells in the interest of this city
as the place of headquarters. II
is expected that Chairman Wells
will yield to the desires Of many
OF his friends in Northern Texas
and establish an office in this city.
While every democrat in Dallas
is anxious to SEE Chairman Wells
locate here, it is realized that ali
contests worthy the name will be
had this year in Southern Texas
districts, and no Dallas democrat
wants the State Chairman to
neglect The close sections even
though Dallas is favored thereby.
1t is expected that Mr.. Wells will
have two headquarters, one IN
San Antonio and the other IN
Dallas.

PLATT and Quay are apparently

PLATT and Quay are apparently
the main pillars on which RoOse-
velt's aspiration to succeed himself
is stayed. Plat is foxey. He
put Roosevelt in the Office of vice
president, hoping to shelve him
permanently, but fate Outdid him
and put the ambitions Rough
Rider in the very position Plat
would have kept him from. Plat
saw that fate had been against him
and, like the wise old fellow tibet
he is, has bowed gracefully to the
fiat, and is now trying to turn
fate's work to his own benefit.
Quay, seeing his opportunity to
undo his old time enemy, Mark
Hanna, has also espoused Roose-
velt's cause, and thus the twin
political sphinxes of the East are
on the side of the man whom nei-
Their ever expected to see in the
presidential chair. Both men are
powers. but both stand for the
worst form of republican political
bossism. They are the Boss Gro
kers Of their party, but perhaps
are wiser than the ex-Tammany
chieftain. With them to sustain
him, Roosevelt seems to stand a
fine chance of winning the nomin-
alton. However, the Ohio leader
is man OF wonderful resources,
and it remains to be seen whether
he is going to ego way back aud

WELL DIGGER'S
MARVELLOUS ESCAPE

OAturudy III Tue bOHu vi ais 4,
Ont, was divided in its rejoicing
over the news that King Edward
VII was out of danger aud that
Joshua Sanford had been rescued.
Loyal as Canada is, it may be
doubted if the feelings of JOY in
the Kings recovery were upper
most Though only "a we'll digger,
Sanford had passed through III ex-
aud SO credit"bI/to himself and
all concerned that it was fitting
that all Canada should hail his re-
lease Gas it did,, and that wider
public should also hear aud APP
plaud.
On the afternoon Of the Tuesday
preceding Sanford was buried in a
we'll eighty-sIx feet deep by the
shifting Of a body or sand which
brought down upon him IA quantity
of bricks aud loose earth. Thanks
possibly, to the drill casing, which
reached Arom the bottom to the top
of the W i, his supply of air was
not shut IF. and fh'"ngh The med
Ium of lhi\ Iruu pipe lie was able,
with the utIA |st GOODNESS aud clear
headeduess, 10 direct operations
for his rescue throughout The great
err part Of the ninety-nine hours be
was imprisoned. After nearly a
days work spent in removing the
debris which chOked the we'll, he
advised the abandonment of that
plan aud the boring Of tunnel
through the firm earth to the point
where be was imprisoned A Shaft
parallel TO the wall was according
ly dug, aud by Thursday morning
morning the rescuers were, as
they thought, almost within reach
of Sanford, when another cavern
occurred, all communication with
him was shut off, work was stop
ped, and he was gwen up for dead.
Late the same afternoon, how
ever, Ioiterers by the we'll heard
Sanford's voice, work was resumed
a transverse tunnel was run to the
spot where be lay, and on Friday
morning he received the first nour-
ishment he had taken in 80 hours.
His right leg was still pinioned by
mass of bricks, but the indomlt
able we'll digger piled chisel and
crowbar for IL hours 10 an attempt
to release himself-a feat which
was finally accomplished, however,
only through the efforts of three
of his friends, who had risked their
lives for hours in the last stages Of
the work.
Sanford's pluck is illustrated in
more than one passage of the
Toruoto Globes narrative, but his
grim joke when, on the fourth day
of his Imprisonment, d drink of
cold water was refused him, worthy
of Que of Bret Harte's Afgonauts,
is perhaps the lest thing in it.
'If | don't get that water, Itell the
doctor I'll come up for it," he had
said.
They say Sanford will be about
in fortnight, as good man MS
ever, and that is saying a good deal
in Sauford's case. 1t was worth

friends are proof euough--if proof

All of the small, dirty and cracked

cans, and this product is shipped all
over the country, and is great con-

baker has use for the whites of eggs
he can, just buy what he needs put
up in these cans, which saves him
the loss resulting from buying eggs

Then the rotten and cloudy eggs

LIQUID LOUISE KILLER.

"A good, reliable liquid louise killer
is simply indispensable in the raising
of poultry. During warm weather
lice multiply very rapidly, and one
must keep constant watch for them
or the premises will be literally alive
l:efore you know it. We did not real
ize the true worth of our liquid erad-
icator until this season, when we
neglected to get quantity until the
dealer had sold out. While we were
waiting for the goods-four weeks
we discovered millions of the pesky
little red creepers on the roost poles,
the kind that run over the fowls at
night, and retire to roost on the
Eperches during the day. One of our
|Heighbors told us the louise killer did
not prove to be of any special bene-
lit to him SO far as he could see.
The reason was because he was only

and leaving the underside for their

them. The perches must be complete

RUINS OF OLD JERUSALEM.
Valuable Relics Of Antiquity "a
earthed In Excavatiag In the
Holy City.

The Greek Catholic monks, who are
in possession of the chief portions of
the church of the Holy Sepulcher, are
now going to build a bazaar opposite it,
where pilgrims may purchase souve-
Mrs of their visit to Jerusalem. Dur
ing the process of clearing the site the
foundations of an old medieval
church. 40 meters long and so wide,
with three apses, were discovered, says
the London Standard. A number of
fine capitals. fragments of basalt pill
lars. and bas-reliefs, with symbolic an
finals, were found, all these remains
having doubtless belonged to the choir
of the church. Last year valuable
silver shrine, containing piece of the
holy cross and relics of the Apostles
Peter aud Paul-according, at least, to
the inscriptions on them-was found
at the same place.
The patriarch of Jerusalem, it is
said, is keeping other discoveries se-
cret, owing to his dislike. of the Roman
Catholic church. Those mentioned
above are all the more important, as

they belonged. According to the
statement of medieval traveller the
hospice and the monastery which the
citizens of Amalf founded about the
year GAO, as refuge for western pill
grims, were situated due south of the
holy sepulcher, about a stones throw
away The first church was built in
honor of st. Mary de Latinis, and the
second, the ruins of which have now
been found, in honor of St. John the
Baptist. The French monk Bernard.
who lived there in $40, highly praised
the hospitality and the large library Of
the hospice. A Mohammedan historian
says it was destroyed by the Khalif Ha-
ken, and rebuilt shortly afterward,
while. according to another account,
it prospered down to the time of King
Baldwin, of Jerusalem, from HOO to
1118, when the two communities of ST
Mary and St. John adopted the latter
as their joint protector. This was the
origin of the Knights of st. John. The
remains now discovered, therefore, are
the ruins Of the cradle of this order. II
is most unfortunate that the preserva-
tion of these very interesting remains
seems impossible, owing to the ill-feel'
ing which exists between the Greeks
and Roman Catholics in Jerusalem.

have found it an excellent plan to
plaster the sides and ceiling with an
ordinary plaster Of sand and lime. Al
most anyone can do it, it not being
necessary to be so smooth. It is
antiseptic and perfectly tight-warm,
dry and healthf,l-and the material
costs mere trifle. i
The house has tight floor and IL
divided into eight apartments and a
feeding alley by poultry netting
screens three feet high. These screens
are made separate so that they can
be easily taken out when required.
Windows of glass about two feet
square are placed An front of each
apartment, close to the floor, so that
the sun can shine in on the floor.
Board shutters are fastened on the
outside to be closed on cold nights, as
much exposed glass makes cold hen
house at night. Runs OF wire net
ting are made in front of each apart
ment, and the ground planted with
grass or lettuce to provide something
green for the chicks when they are
let out on warm. sunshiny days.
E / use hens to raise the chicks, and
sometimes place two in each apart
ment, but the house is equally well
adapted for artificial brooders. The
chicks do well in this house, do not
get the gapes, and are safe from var
lnints that SO often play havoc with
chickens that roost about in coops on
the ground. After they get some
size the screens are taken out and
temporary roosts fitted in. In the
fall, the cocks having been previously
disposed Of, the pullets are mostly
taken to the laying houses, although
some are left greater part of the
winter. Before time for the new
brood. the house is thoroughly
cleaned, iisinfected and whitewashed.
