STABBED FRIEND IN BACK.
Glenn Peyton Tried to Prevent VIM,
Owen From Driving Away
With His Girl" at the
Benton City Presby-
terian Church.

Glenn Peyton, aged 10 years, living
miles east Of Mexico, stabbed his
friend, William Owen, in the back
with a knife, as Owen was driving
away from the Benton City Presbyte-
rian Church Sunday night with Mary
James, a young lady whom Peyton
had taken to church. 1t is thought
that Owen is not seriously injured, as
he was able to be in Mexico Tuesday
to swear out warrant against Peyton
for assault with intent to kill.
Young Peyton was arrested by Sher-
i'll James In this city Tuesday after
noon and stated the alleged circum-
stances Of the trouble to a LEDGER
reporter.
He said that he had taken Miss
James to church and that she wanted
to ride part Of the way home with
Owen and that he said 1T would be
all right, but that he, Peyton, wanted
tO drive her the first part OF the re-
turn trip.
"After church, )" said Peyton to a
LEDGER reporter, III told my girl to
wait for me while | got my horse.
When / returned | saw Owen driving
away with my girl and / let my horse
loose and ran after them, Owen whip
ping up his horse as did so. | pulled
a knife from my pocket as / ran to-
ward the buggy and jumped on the
back end and when Owen refused to
stop / stabbed him. We had always
been friends
The young man under arrest was
placed under 81, 600 bond and his father
was trying to furnish it at late hour

The marriageable girl in Tunis has
trying ordeal to go through after
her betrothal to the man, not of her
choice, but whose choice she is. She
has to be fattened to the required size
before the ceremony can take place.
AS soon as the betrothal takes place
she is taken to a room, there cooped
up until the fattening process is con-
cluded Silver shackles are fastened
around her wrists and ankles, and
the task of her parents and future
husband is to increase her bulk until
her wrists and ankles fill up the
shackles. If the husband is a widow
er, or has discharged" his first wife,
the girl has the shackles of the first
spouse placed on her, and she must
fill them out.
1t takes a long while to do this, as
a rule, and sometimes 1t cannot be
accomplished, in spite of all efforts.
1t Is then open TO the future husband
to cry off the bargain or waive the
condition. In the case of bachelor he
takes care to see that the bracelets and
anklets are not too large-that is, If
he is very fond of the girl-but If he is
being forced into the marriage by his
parents he is a stickler for custom.

A Sail In "A Glass Boat.

hotel keeper at Nassau has elabo-
rated the idea of the marine telescope
In striking fashion. Most people who
have been in the tropics are familiar
with the marine telescope" a long
wooden box with a pane of glass at
one end, which, being thrust into the
water at one side of the boat, enables
one to get a fairly satisfactory view
of the animal and vegetable life or
near the bottom-when the bottom is
not too far from the surface. What
the ingenious hotel keeper proposes
is to make a big boat which shall
itself be a marine telescope, and so
provide his patrons with an opportun-
ity to watch the sea gardens of the Ba-
hamas much more conveniently than
they could with the glazed tube. The
boat, which is now building at Palm
Beach, Fla, is to be As feet long, and
for 28 feet its bottom is to be made of
plate glass, clear and thick. Thus will
the opacity of the surface ripples be
avoided, while deeper immersion. in
creased steadiness and wider field of
view are expected to give the passen-
gers such a spectacle of submarine
wonders as they never secured by the
simpler arrangement.

Relative to whey as a food for pigs,
a speaker at New York farmers in
stitute said: Whey is worth a good
deal more than we get out of it, as a
rule. About one-half of the total SOL
ids of the milk when made into cheese
pass of in whey. All the milk sugar
about five pounds-the albumen, the
ash, some fat, and small per cent of
caseine, making fully six pounds. go
into the whey vat. When this whey is
used just as it comes from the cheese
vat, II 1t be fed to pigs, with wheat
middlings, fully seven cents per hun
dred pounds may be got out of it. AS
a rule, however we do not get half
that. have experimental and know
that whey is worth more for feeding
pigs than for any other purpose. If
you will next spring spend the time
you do in figuring down the making
price of cheese a fraction of a cent,
and use 1t in devising some method of
better utilizing the whey product, you
will be better paid. 1t is almost
perfectly balanced food; that is, the
solids of it. But as there are but six
pounds of these solids in 100 pounds of
whey, the balance being water, 1t will
be seen there is only small per cent
OF the whole that is valuable.

Cotton.sod Mea, in the Dairy.

From Farmers Review: Our ex-
perience in feeding cotton seed meal
is somewhat limited. We fed it two
years ago and one year ago during the
winter. The first season we fed some
what extensively; the second only to
a very limited extent. The first win
ter we had only good results, except
that some of our cows did not respond
and some of them to so small an extent
that we took the cotton seed meal
from them, as there was no profit in
feeding it. The balance of our herd
paid a good profit on the cost of the
meal. The second season we fed it we
were troubled some by securing among
our cows; different cows at different
times in different stables. At that
time we did not know what was the
cause of the trouble, but since we are
inclined to think that the cotton seed
meal was adulterated. We fed from
three-quarters to pound and half
per day per COW. We have had no
trouble from over feeding. We do
not know what might be the maximum
amount 1t would be safe to feed

The Birth of Crystals.

The bioscope is proving itself to be
an instrument of some value in scien-
tific investigation. AT Harvard uni
versity Professor Richards and Mr..
Archibald have made a series of in
stantaneous photographs Of
growing crystals, their object being to
determine the manner in which crys-
tallization begins. With high micro
scopic powers some observers have
thought that they could detect the
formation of minute globules immedi-
ately preceding the appearance of
crystal forms. But the new bioscoplc
pictures of forming and growing crys-
tails show only crystalline shapes
from the beginning. They also reveal
the fact that the growth in diameter
in the first second of crystals exist
ence is vastly more rapid than during
the subsequent period, and 1t is
thought that this swift growth at the
start is the cause OF lack of defini-
tion which deceives the eye but not
the Photographic film.-Youth's Com
panion.

This is the celebrated race Of fowls,
bred from time immemorial for the
purposes of the cock pit, and in which
courage was so developed by the severe
selection of combat that breed was
finally obtained that did not know how
to yield. Happily cock fighting in
England is now a thing OF the past,
except among a very few, who carry
on their cruel sport upon the sly. But
it is very interesting to notice that
this cessation of the old purpose for
which it was bred has worked gradu-
ally very great change in the shape
and formation of the game fowl. The
modern exhibition race is very differ
ent in many respects from the old
fighting race. The old fowl was mod
erately short on the leg, not very long
in the neck, not short in feather, but
with full hackle and with rather
large famed and spreading tail, car
ried tolerably high. All these points
have been changed.-Lewis Wright.

The winds at Play.


These many days the winds have been at
play,
And they have swept the sky
Clear OF all clouds that barred their bois-
ferrous way
And marrcd their revelry
With wild delight they yell as on they
sweep
Across the trembling deep.
They lash the sleeping ocean into foam,
They strip the tossing trees,
They rudely drive belated wanderers
home.
They tear across the leas.
No rest for them-from dawn to even-
song
Their mirth is loud and long,
In ruined woods high carnival they hold;
The dry leaves pirouette,
A giddy whirl OF scarlet and OF gold
Whilst down the rivulet,
Full to the brim, the russet spoils and red
Are to the ocean sped.
The golden elms to one another bend;
The revels wax apace,
The forest seems to dance from end TO
end,
The breeches interlace!
And for the orchestra to this mad crowd
The winds are piping loud.

DR.. Jordan. director Of the Geneva
Experiment station, New York. was re-
Gently asked as to what was being
done there with the Tamworth breed
OF hogs. He replied; We have a Tam
worth male in our pens and are cross
ing him on the Jersey Reds. He has
less hair and we believe the cross will
make a good bacon pig. Some farm
ers object to the long nose OF the Tam
worth, hut do not care for that. We
cannot afford to grow pork for pack
ing here. Its day has gone in this
state. Bacon for home use and export
is now in best demand.
