work Of the negro. VIII HRandls, while
resisting arrest. Randle WIS burned
to death in his own house atter being
fatally shot. The dead are: Sheriff
Charles Gassoway; Bob Wallace, who
was killed and fell into the fire; Hugh

head. The wounded are;s William
'Gassoway, shot through abdomen, will
probably die; James Payne, shot
through the chest, cannot live; Rob
ert Patterson, shot in the leg; James
Fnney, wounded in the shoulder. Il
Sheriff Gassoway and his deputy:
worked for three days to apprehend
the negro. During this time the negro
fortified himself in q small cabin near
the public square and declared hes
would die before he would submit to-
arrest. The sheriff went to Randle'sF
cabin at noon and called upon the ne
gro to surrender. He refused, shoot
ing the sheriff with a Winchester. Re-
Inducements were quickly secured but
the negro stood them of, shooting
down six more men before o'clock in
the evening. Meanwhile a deputy had
informed Governor Jelks of the sltua-
tion and the chief executive ordered
the Wheeler Rifles to come over from
Florence and they arrived about 9
O'Clock. There was no way to advance
upon the house without getting within
range of the negros deadly rifle and
an effort was made to fire the cabin
by polring coal oil In the direction OF
the place. Cotton, soaked in kerosene,
was used to start the blaze. Finally a
house two doors away was ignited and
in short time Randle's fortifcation
was ablaze. Randle, forced to crawl
into the basement by the intense heat,
kept up continual fire through q
small hole in the foundation. AS the
flames gained volume and forced him
from the basement the negro leaped
out through the flames and faced his
pursuers. Before anyone could bring
him down he had fired two shots, both
of which took effect. An instant later:
Randle had fallen, a bullet from one:
Of the militiamen piercing his head.
The body was riddled with bullets, and
thrown into the burning building.

PROCESS BUTTER.

We watched recently with much in,
terest the process used in making what
is known on the market as renovated
or process" butter. The raw material is
the store butter of the localities where
creameries are unknown, wads of odor'
Gus grease tinctured with all the ag-
gregated smells of an unrefned and
semicivilized agriculture. This butter
is melted and strained. leaving clear
yellow butter oil. 1t is then aerated by
blowing~a current of pure heated air
through it for eight or ten hours. This
process removes all odor and leaves it
pure, odorless butter fat. 1t is then
treated with skimmilk in much the
same manner that oleo is, is churned
and packed and really makes a very
palatable butter and sells on its merits
about cents pound under western
extra creamery. A factory of this sort
sustains the same relation to the dairy
interest of the country that reform
school does to the bad boys of com
munity-takes tough raw material and
converts it into something good and
useful.

THE GAME GOING.

The repeating shotgun and rifle, with
poorly enforced game laws. have about
cleaned out all the settled portions of
the country of all wild game. Save as
large tracts of mountain woodland or
prairie marsh may be bought up by
syndicates of men who love sport and
the game thereon protected, there will
be none to be found In very few
years. The wild pigeons are all gone;
only few prairie chickens are left In
Illinois, Missouri, Wisconsin and Iowa.
The wild fowl-the ducks. brant and
geese-are so necessarily bombarded
from the time they can fly in August
until they return to their northern nest
ing grounds In April that they have
learned to shun all signs of civilization.
The quail, which takes more kindly to
man and his ways than any other OF
our game birds, might be made plenti-
full If II were only given decent protec-
ton. but the pot hunter ready to bag
the whole flock at one shot is to be
found in every community. and SO this
most attractive little bird has no show.

all wiped out. II seems pity that this

We are asked to name short list of

northern Iowa. While there is a long
list Of apples which may be grown in
the territory referred to, we boil it
down to the following: Duchess, early
summer; Wealthy. fall; Northwestern
Greening. winter. The first named is
absolutely hardy, the second reasona-
bly, so and the last named apparently
hardy. These three apples are all good
in quality, the Greening keeping with
us until May under ordinary cellar con
ditions. In addition to the above, the
Whitney crab has place, for 1t is a
nice little summer apple and good

In case of a strike work will prob
ably be suspended not only in the

fourth. This would tie up practically
all the mines in the state. Operators
in the second district say. however.
they have few orders for the summer
and would suffer less than the miners

CROWS AND CHICKENS.

A lady friend who is a very success
full raiser of poultry told us recently
that the worst enemy she had to cope
with now in the poultry business was
the crow; that these birds had become
so numerous and bold that they would
destroy all eggs laid by the hens on the
outskirts of the farm homestead ap0
kill more little chickens than twenty
hawks. There is no doubt about the
crow being a nuisance, and the fac,
that it eats some grubs in the fields is
no sort of excuse for having it around
the premises. Unceasing war should
be made on both the crow and the
SPARROW
