FELL SIXTY FEET
AND ESCAPED WITHOUT EVEN A
BROKEN BONE,
John Rogers Tunbles from the Roof of n
Three-Story Building to the Pavement.
A Ladder Breaks His Fall.

While working on the roof of a three
story building on Detroit street, John
Rogers of 1865 Alabama street, Cleve-
land, o., lost his balance and fell six
ty feet to the ground.
He was drawing up gravel and
while leaning over pulling on the guy
rope, it broke and he fell. About
thiry-six feet from the sidewalk he
struck ladder which stood against
the building. This broke the force of
his fall. But he fell upon the pave
ment head foremost and his fellow
workmen picked him up unconscious.
The ambulance was summoned and
he was taken to st. Johns hospital
whore it was fully ten hours before
he regained consciousness. No bones
were broken nor did he sustain any
internal injuries as was first feared.
To a reporter he saidi

EVIDENCE AGAINST RHODES.

Cape Town, May 1.-The hearing of
the charge against Princess Radziwill
was resumed on Wednesday. The ac-
cused gave evidence ON oath and de-
clared that the bills to which it is
charged she forged Mr.. Rhodes sig
nature were genuine and that no for
gerry was committed. They were
handed to her by Mrs. Scholtz The
secretary of Cecil Rhodes testified that
he had never seen Mr.. Rhodes under
the influence of liquor during the
past eight years.
A quantity of correspondence was
read including letter from the Prin-
cess to DR.. Jameson III which the
writer said After the abominable
lies Rhodes told the court neither he
nor you will wonder when l tell you
mean to take strong measures to
prove that he perjured himself. Well,
a woman can bite"
The Princess took the stand and tes-
titled that she had never told Mrs.
ScholtX she possessed compromising
letters from Lord Miner. She had
compromising letters from Mr.. Rhodes
and the Afrikander Bond had offered
e10, 600 for them.

IN THE DITCH.

Medill, Mo-, Apr. 0-The Cali
fornia Limited on the Atchison, To-
kepa and Santa Fe railroad, east
bound, was derailed on Tuesday, on
a curve at Cana, a switch five miles
west of here, while going at tremend-
Gus speed. Five persons were killed
and twenty three injured.
The train was over an hour late and
passed Wyaconda the last station west
at the rate of siXty-ive miles an hour.
When the heavy train struck the curve
at Cana the rails spread. The train
consisted of two mail cars, seven Pull
mans and one dining car. The mail
car, the dining car and the two for
ward sleepers went into the ditch.
The tender was ditched but the en-
CINE remained on the track The de-
rallied coaches were smashed to kind
ling wood, even the axles being bent
out of shape.
The conductor went to farmhouse
and telephoned a report of the wreck.
The railroad officials then hurried a
wreck train from Fort Madison. The
trainmen worked nobly, assisted by
unhurt passengers and neighboring
farmers. The place of the wreck is
distant from all communication. Ev-
cry effort is being made to complete
, the list of dead and wounded but most
of the latter are in the railroad hospi-
tai at Fort Madison and those in
charge refuse information.

AGRICULTURAL.
EARLY PASTURES.

The grass begins to show green, and
the stock, when turned into the yard,
seem to get an odor from it, which
we may not detect, as we have not
been trained TO like grass, excepting
in the spring greens that are boiled,
if we may call them grass. We be-
lieve III letting them indulge their
appetite for green food under certain
wholesome restrictions. We would
not let them into the pastures until
we had been the entire rounds to
make sure that fences and walls were
in such shape as to retain them 1t
all right last fall. Some lawless or
reckless hunter may have torn down
more wall for six-cent rabbit, than
he would have thrown down for a
half dollar, or would rebuild in q half
days labor, or he may have broken
rail or two of fence to get over him
self or let his dog crawl through.
Having seen this all right, select a
pleasant day, give goOd feed In the
morning in the barn, and as much
water as they want to drink, and in
the afternoon let them out for a few
hours. They may not want much hay
after they come in, and if so do not
leave it before them, so that they
may have an appetite for the morn
ing's breakfast. Continue this meth
cd until there seems to be enough to
give them days feed, and even then
do not fail to feed little hay and
grain at the stable. Some COWS relish
it even when they appear as full of
grass as they can hold, while grain
fed to stock in the pasture is storing
a supply for next winter, to make
more milk or even more growth. -

CARE FOR OVERFED HENS.

l noticed an inquiry from r. D., Or
ange county, New York, in the Trib-
une, lately, in regard to ailments of
fowls. 1t is difficult to tell the cause
of the ailment without knowing the
food given them, their treatment, etc.
Probably they have been oveffed.
Several years ago fed floek liber-
ally with skimmilk. After several
weeks of this diet the liens were tax
en- with an ailment and acted as if
their backs werefnjured. They would
fiutter and >stagger while walking and
finally die, as if afflicted with apo
pleyT After several had died the
rest were bled in the combs and given
teaspoonful of rochelle salts each.
All that We're given this treatment
recovered within twenty four hours.
The salts can be placed in the hen s
mouth and teaspoonful of water
given, which will cause her to swal-
low them without any trouble j II.

unsuccessful, and prices at this writing

That "Blood Wine" fully comes up to
the expectations of our people is evil
denced by the expression of satisfaction
from the many who have already given it
a test. "If had to go without some of
the necessities of life, would have Blood
Wine in the house." said certain gen.
tleman living in the northern part of the
city. 1t wards off coughs, colds, indi-
gestion, bowel troubles and dozen and
one other diseases that are apt to attack
anyone "a bottle of good medicine al
ways handy is the stitch in time that
saves suffering and misery; and this is
just the kind of medicine that will do
it." To begin away down at the roots of
any sickness, what is>the first step to be
taken? Purify the blood" is the answer
from every physician. Regulate the
bowels and purify the blood. Microbes,
Bacteria, /Bacclli and all kinds of germs
float through the system in the blood.
Just stop and reason it out; think of
your blood teeming with these myriads
of little demons, floating hither and
thither like wreckage on a great ocean,
to be cast up against the delicate organs
of the system where they find lodging
places, stay, thrive and breed, perhaps in
the lungs, perhaps in the throat, kidneys,
heart or tender tissues of the body
anywhere. This is the beginning of
trouble. Cleanse your blood and you
purify the whole system.
With pure blood and a good circu.
lation no one ever contracted consump-
ton or other fatal disease. BLOOD
Wine" gives new life because it makes
new blood. 1t brings rest and quiet be-
cause it soothes the nerves; it creates a
good appetite by toning up the digestive
organs; it regulates the system by pro-
ducing healthy, regular operations Of
the bowels. 1t kills that tired feeling
and makes one feel like running, Jump
ing and exercisingi it gives elasticity to
the body by acting directly on the mus

ONE WAY TO RAISE GOOD
CALVES.

In successfully growing calves pre-
fer an April calf of good beef stock.
The mother should be well taken care
Of fed on plenty of clover hay, ground
corn and oats, mixed half and half
Let the calf have all the finest milk
that it wants, then take it away from
the COW and put it in a stable handy,
and where the COW can see it, if it is
bad weather. If the weather is nice,
put the COW on good pasture of rye,
with the calf just over the fence at
a straw shed or stack, where it can
get the benefit of the sun. The calf
should be turned to the COW morning,
noon, and, night for the first two
weeks then the calf will eat, if it
is where it can get something green
There should be a small lot of rye
plenty Of milk morning and night will
be all that is required for the next
two weeks. Then the calf will be one
month old.
The first of May there should be a
patch of oats ready for the calf with
box nailed up under a shed where
the calf can go in bad weather and
eat quart of ground corn and oats,
equal parts, morning and night for the
next month. Feed just after turning
the calf out. During the third month,
June, the calf should be treated the
same as the second, except a little
more ground feed-say, one-half pint
| more. The fourth month it should
have a patch of peas to run in, and
| the feed should be cut down to one
quart, morning and night. The fifth
month the calf should have three
pints of ground oats and corn and one
pint of oil cake or fiaXseed meal given
| Just after being turned to the COW,
with the pasture increased by letting
run on fresh rye patch. At the enc
of August he will be six months ole
and should be ready for the marke

the calf should be trimmed and de

all this time the calf should hav'

LOCAL TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION

Z The local geographically union held
a meeting on Wednesday evening and
today it was reported that the mem
bers took action which might lead to
a strike for a nine hour day, a mini
mum wage of S12 per week and thirty
cents per hour for extra time. This
rumor proved to be groundless as it is
asserted no definite action was taken
along any of these lines at. this meet
ing.
1t is said on good authority, that the
union has no desire TO clash withithe
interests of the employers, and that it
could not order a strike on its own
responsibility and receive the support
of the international organization.
The rule is that if branch union
desires to strike it must first notify
the international officers. Some Off
cial is then sent to look over the field
and see if the circumstances warrant
a strike. After this has been done,
the official tries to effect an amicable
settlement with the employers avoid
ing strike except as court OF last
resort.

MORE STRIKES.

Buffalo, N Y, May 1.-Two thou
sand carpenters, iron workers, and
plumbers struck today for an increase
in wages.
Lowell, May /. Thirty five weavers
in the Bay state mills struck today.
1t is expected all will go out soon and
a tie up of the mill is expected Bea-
yer Brook mills at Collinsville are
shut down for few days on account
of the weavers' strike. The shut down
of these two plants causes idlcness
to 1900 employees
Providence, r. l., May NEARLY
1000 teamsters struck this morning for
recognition of their union. The lum-
bermen will close their yards temper
arily. Practically no freight is being
moved from business houses to the
railroads.
Rochester, n. Y, May lover 800
coal wagon drivers went out today be-
cause their demands were refused.
Jersey City, May 1.-Two thousand
machinist's benchmen in twelve
moulding and sawmills in this vicin-
ity struck today for an eight hour
day and more pay.
Reading Pa, May 1.-The failure
to sign the new wage scales has caus-
ed strikes among carpenters and plan
ing mill hands today. About 1000 are
out, Building operations are suspend
ed.
Gloucester, May 1.-Seven hundred
quarrymen struck today.
Pittsburg, May lit is estimated
that between twelve and fifteen thou
sand carpenters, bricklayers and 9TH
ers engaged in the building trades are
idle today, striking for reduction of
hours and increase of wages

DEVELOPING THE COLT.

The future usefulness of the colt
depends upon nothing so much as the
feed during the first year of it's life.
To be useful in any way horse must
have good bones, and, above all, good
Joints. Bones are built, like the rest
of the animal, from the feed consum-
ed by the young animal, and if the
feed does not contain the essentials
necessary to the growth of bone it is
evident that there will be a weakness
in this part of the organism. The
milk from the dam contains large
proportion of the most necessary min
eral substances, such as lime but the
colt seems to require much more in a
short time and may be seen trying to
supplement this limited supply By tax
ing occasional mouthfuls of soil
Probably no materials at the farm
er's disposal contain more mineral or
bone forming material than bran and
oats, and the colt should have plenty
of these and good clover hay from
the start. 1t is quite safe as rule,
to give as much as two quarts Of these
concentrates mixed per diem as soon
as the colt can be taught to eat them,
and this may be gradually increased.
The colts temperament and character
should be closely studied, however,
and the ration guaged accordingly.
These concentrates and clover hay,
however being rich in proteine, or
flesh forming material, induce rapid
development of muscle, sinew and
tendon, as we'll as bone, and the right
kind of feed and nature will do the
rest, as far as bodily development is
concerned. j. H. Griswold, Canadian
Experiment Station.

WORK HORSES IN SPRING.

Horses that have reasonable
amount of work to do through the
winter are in the best condition for
the harder work of spring. But on
farms the number of horses employed
in the spring is very large and the
work for horses in the winter very
limited, hence many horses must be
put at work when in "soft'' condi-
ton due to their long rest and often
1T seems necessary to put them at very
hard work, with long hours, at the
outset. This should be avoided if
possible, since the winter idle horse
is more likely to be able to do great
er amount of work in the aggregate
during the season if it can be gradual
ly accustomed to the hardest work.
But where that cannot be done, the
next best thing is good care, which
not only means ample food, but good
grooming, which is always restful and
refreshing to horse--and we'll fitting
collar and harness This last is very
essential, since it is preventive of
gals that may entirely disqualify the
horse from work later on. In short, if
good Judgment, patience, kindness,
and all around humane consideration
for the noble animal that is so vital
to the success of the seasons work
are practised in the beginning they
will prove to be among the most profit
able investments of the year. Farm,
