STEEL FENCING GROWS
FAST IN POPULARITY.

Steel is the fencing material OF the
times. The old rail. stump and other wood
fences are fast disappearing and the mod
ern steel fences are replacing the old and
obsolete styles. and are annually giving
TO tho farmers thousands OF acres OF land
on account OF tho saving in space occu-
pied. When his saving of land Is taken
into consideration with the better protec-
ton to crops and stock. and the greater
durability of steel as compared Win
wood IL becomes very apparent that the
steel fencing such as the American or
Elwood syle. shown elsewhere In this Is
sue. are by far the cheapest fences ever
placed within the reach OF the land
owner. and the time IL near at hand when
the landscape will no longer he disfigured
by the dilapidated rail and board fences.
Farms fenced with steel fence such ms
above referred to are worth much more
per acre on the market and pay a much
greater revenue per acre than where left
open or inclosed by fences OF the old and
inferior type. A good steel fence r.
paying investment year after year. and.
In fact. will pay for itself many times
over within a few years after erection.

In BostoI visiting his mother and will not
return until next week. In the interim
Ira NJ. Holmes is acting prosecutor in Po-
lice Court. Judge Stubs. when seen yes
terday. said he had been told that Collins
was not to occupy the position of prose-
cutor in his court any longer, and he re-
GREETED il very much. The judge said that
Collins's work has been efficient, and it
would work inconvenience to the Police
Cour il a new man. ~unacquainted with the
work. should now attempt to take it up.
He cited as sn illustration the court pro-
ceedings Of yesterday. when twenty-five
cases were not disposed of until after 2:3O
O'Clock. He said if Collins were prosecut-
ing the cases they could lave all been dis
posed of by IL O'Clock.
Members IF the police department who
are in constant touch with the court said

for county prosecutor two years hence. His
deputy. Charles Benedict, is also a candi-

Ira M. Holmes. the acting prosecutor,
was a candidate for police judge one year
ago. He was beaten by Judge Stubbs.
Holmes was formerly employed in the bust
ness department of the Journal.
Prosecutor Ruckelshaus said yesterday
that. as far as he knew. Collins has no in
tention of rSsigniDg and that he has not
asked him to resign. He said he knew OF
no reason why the story should have got
abroad that he and Collins were not on the
best of terms. He says that his deputy
and himself have been friends during the
campaign. and the fact that two of his
deputies. Charles Benedict and Collins, de-
hts relations with either.
Mr.. Ruckelshaus will begin his second
term In January. As yet his deputies have
not been announced. although he said yes
terday that he has chosen some of them,

ments until he has decided on all. He said
he did not know whether he would reap

syship for mother term He denied tina;
Collins's resignation has either been ac-
cepted or demanded and refused to discuss
