Cattle Are Not Natives.

In an Introduction to recent Dulle-
tin on American breeds of beef cattle
the broad statement is made that prior
to the discovery OF America there were
no cattle in the western hemisphere.
On one Of his voyages Columbus Is
said to have brought number Of do
nestle animals with him. The escape
from captivity Of some Of the early
importations of cattle was the means
of establishing the famous native cat.

Marriage Not a Failure.

Is marriage failure? The answer is
in the wide-staring eyes of that dimpled
bundle in the cradle. Marriage a fail
ure? Ask that young mother as she
croons over her firstborn. Ask the white
faced little woman in black over there
as she kisses the cheeks of her stalwart
son, and sends him into the world to con-
quer. "All is lost but you, Mary" chokes
out the gray-bearded victim of bust.

Congress has taken an important step
in the history Of the national deyelon-
ment in the passage Of the irrigation
act. The settlement of the United
States followed, naturally, the lines of
least resistance. First the land near
the Atlantic seaboard was taken IN:
then the settlers cut their way vest
ward through the forest, crossing the
Alleghanies into the Ohio valley, and
later spreading over the prairies and
alluvial bottoms of the Mississippi val
ley. But the home-seeking movement
was halted at the one hundredth meri-
dian by insufficient rainfall. West Of
that stretched the region which used
to figure on the map as 'The Great
American Desert" This region is 10
longer altogether desert. Thirteen
States and three territories lie wholly
or in part within its limits, and private
enterprise has irrigated considerable
areas which once seemed incapable of
cultivation. What private enterprise
could not do may now be done by GOV
eminent aid. The reclamation fund
which the new law creates out of the
sale of public lands in the arid and
semi-arid States and territories will
provide means for storing and dlstrib-
uting water for irrigation. Ultimately
1t IS estimated that an area equal to
that OF the States Of Illinois and Iowa
may be, redeemed for the plow. The
best feature Of the law Is that Its ben

1t has remained for rich German TO
discover one Of the grandest Uses to
which money can be put. Having ap-
parently decided that Messrs Rockcfel-
Ter and Carnegie possess the sole rights
to the building Of universities and IL
braries, this German, rich 1nancier
in the little town of Haschmann, has
established a fund for the providing
of prizes for men who will marry the
most homely girls or women over the
age Of 40 who have been Tilted at least
twice. In addition to the prizes 1t is
provided that the homeliest girl In the
town of Haschmann shall have year
ly pension of $50. The nobleness of
this charity, If it may be SO called, will
be at once apparent. 1t might well he
taken up by rich men in this country
who do not care to build colleges OF
libraries. The man who marries tho
homeliest girl in any town is surely
yentitled to some reward. We can think
of only one drawback in connection
with this fine method of distributing
money, and that is the difficulty there
would be in finding the homeliest Girl.
But that might be arranged by leaving
1t to vote of the girls themselves. The
one chosen as the homeliest could nj
ways console herself with the thought
that the others had voted against her
because they We're jealous. Who will
be the first rich American to win fame
by putting this splendid scheme into
operation?

A head-on collision on the Iowa Cen

neva, came near resulting disastrously
to human life and property, and it is the
wonder of all concerned that there were
no lives lost. The collision was between a
local freight and work train, and it Is
said was caused by the failure of a
brakeman to flag the freight. Both en-
gines were badly wrecked and traffic was
delayed for several hours The trainmen
all escaped injury by jumping.

Small Boy Tries to Poison Family of
His Employer = Davenport Young
People Elope to chicngo-Robbcrs in
an Agency Store.

Ray Eismnger, 13-year-old boy, has
food of the family of farmer named
Anderson, who live in Harrison township.
The lad has been working for the Ander-
sons. Twice the family have been poi
soned through their food. neither attempt
resulting fatally. Suspicion finally di-
rected itself toward the Eisminger boy
and he was subjected to rigid cross-eH-
animation. The boy was very loath to
tell his story in the presence of his moth
or, but by slow degrees it was drawn
from him and was substantially as fol-
lows: The Andersons had bottle of
strychnine in the house which they had
bought some time ago to poison some
troublesome crows. The boy said that
after the family was gone he had on both
occasions taken the bottle and put the
poison in their food. When asked II he
knew the stuff in the bottle would kill he
said he did. He answered mo" when
asked if he wanted to kill Mr.. Anderson
or his family, and said that he had moth
ing against any of them, and they treated
him WELL He would give no reason for
attempting to poison the family. The
inference is that his mind had become
morbid through reading.
