Hogs declined 30c last of the week
and are barely steady now. Range
s7.15 to $40.
Sheep receipts still heavy. Chicago
market demoralized. Choice fat lambs

Women and Hens.

Women and hens have some traits
in common, and from close observa-
ton of the feathered fowl an aphoris-
tic lore has sprung up which the un-
kind man uses with an open hand
when talking to his women folks.
How often short tempered spouse
tells his wife she looks like wet heD;
that she cackles like hen; that she
jumps about like hen without her
brood.
These are but few of the charges
flung at the head of the long suffering
wife. Whistling girls and growing
hens have been classed together, and
where is the irreverent man who does
not call a gathering of women a chen
party?"
Perhaps because they have some
strange sympathetic bonds, or may
be for some occult reason too deep
for man to fathom, women are and
always have been extremely success
full in the poultry business.
In many households in the suburbs
of most large American cities the
woman of the house supplies her own
table with the fruits of her poultry
yard. In not a few cases a good profit
is made by selling the surplus pro-
duct to neighbours.
1t is one of the healthiest fads or
occupations that a women can take
up. The work entailed is very light,
it is clean and it is full of variety
that should charm the true feminine
heart.
Moreover, it is a very inexpensive
fed to start. A few dollars spent on
erecting coop and wire fence in
which to keep the fowls is all the
equipement needed. Then, with a few
hens and a rooster and setting of
eggs, the poultry yard is ready to
start to work.-Philadelphia InQuir-

Genuine Confederate Money and
Stamps Are Getting Scarce.

Genuine Confederate money and
postage stamps have about played
out" said a well informed numis-
matist. "It is no trouble to get
counterfeits, however, as there is
no law against making counterfeits
Of this character, and the conse-
quence is that thousands and thou
sands are on the market. The ten
cent Confederate postage stamp is
very scarce and readily brings so
cents each. Thirty different kinds
of postage stamps were issued by
the Confederate government, but it
is difficult to get a full set of the
series.
'Some of the most valuable
stamps in the world are those issued
by some of the local offices in the
south. The Crawford stamp, issued
at Athens, Ca, is worth $3.50, and
the one issued by the Macon (Ga.)
postoffice is worth nearly as much.
"The Confederate money is, of
course, nearly all gone, because aft
er it ceased to pass the people of the
south gave it to their children to
play with, made fire screens, paper
ed houses and put it to many other
uses. As | say, very little of the
genuine can now be found. But the
stamps, bonds and slave deeds are
still valuable, but difficult to get
hold of. | dare say that if shrewd
fellow could have access to some of
the old homes and desks and secre-
taries in the south he would find
small fortune stored away in the
old letters and in the ord papers,
now kept only as reminders of the
writer's and Of other days.
''Few people realize how many
of these old time secretaries, desks
and tables have secret drawers. It
was the custom in olden days for
people of wealth to have secret hid
ing places made in them, and in
them were put the most valuable
papers and jewelry. Not infrequent-
ly now you will read of valuable pa
pers being found in secret drawers
in old articles of furniture which
have been in use for years. And,
too, there are many Of the old
southern homes in which are secret
closets unknown to the present oc-
cupants and, perhaps, filled with ar
ticles and documents of value. y

Where Wedding Fees Co.

Most clergymen who are married
present their wives with the fees
that are handed them for the per-
Torrance of the wedding ceremony.
1t is probable, a bishop estimated
recently, that not more than 10 per
cent of clergymen's wives are de-
MED these little sums. The women
expect them as right. Indeed"
the bishop said, when a young girl
marries a clergyman he who makes
the two one informs her of the priv
ilege she may count on and urges
her to demand after each ceremony
her husband performs that he hand
over the fee to her"
A clergyman's wife of Spruce
street has invested $4,000 which all
came from weddings. A Manayunk
woman keeps herself and her chill
dren in shoes from the same source
of revenue.-Philadelphia Record.

How Often the Watch Ticks.

per second, 800 each minute, $4,000

Thus it will be seen that half doz-

ing up but few seconds of time,

the daily beats by 1854, the num-

Carlyle's Method of Work.

Speaking of his method Of work,
Carlyle said he had found the little
wooden pegs which washerwomen
employ to fasten clothes to a line
highly convenient for keeping to-
gether bits of notes and agenda on
the same special point. 1t was his
habit to paste on a screen in his
workroom engraved portraits, when
no better could be had, of the peo-
pie he was then writing about. 1t

Booker 7. Washington and Tuskegee.


wonder how many of your read
ers have read the exceedingly inter-
esting account of "a Novel Com
mencement," published in the Boston
Transcript, June 81. 1t is a most
delightful description of remark
able occurrence. The following ex-
tracts from it will give some idea of
the great work which Booker T..
Washington has done and is doing,
and of its results
Then, down through this living
lane of fourteen hundred young
Negro men and women, come the in
stitute teachers and the graduates
of other years.
Booker Washington is a singularly
modest man. So far as Iknow, no
one has ever accused him of any ex-
hibition of vanity; but if his heart
ever does swell with pride it may not
unreasonably be at commencement
time each year, when he walks
through this quadruple line of adOr-
ing faces-for alteration is the only
word which really expresses the feel
ing which the students at Tuskegee
have for the principal-and remem-
bers how less than quarter of a
century ago, where now Is this small
army of students and this village of
buildings, he began with thirty IN
taught men and women in shanty
so shaky that a student had to hold
an umbrella over the teachers head
in school when it rained.
All this is only part of COM
mencement the like of which for nov
city and utility | believe it will be
hard to surpass. Is it any wonder
that two members of the London
School Board, sitting on the plat
form, said that they had come four
thousand miles to see Tuskegee, and
if they had come solely for that and
nothing else, they would have been
well repaid?
OF course there were diplomas, tied
up with white ribbon. 1t would not
have been a real commencement
otherwise. These young men and
women have worked as hard for their
diplomas as ever student worked,
yes harder, a good many times, than
many of them. That young man
has worked five long years to pay
his way. That slender young
woman with sensitive oval face and
wavy hair has worked for four years
in the laundry here to pay her way.
After all, perhaps the best diploma
which they got was when Booker
Washington told them, "As you go
out from here there is one thing |
want to caution you about. Don't
go home and feel that you are better
than the rest of the folks in the
neighborhood because you have been
away to school. Don't go home and
feel ashamed of your parents because
you think they don't know as much
as you think you know. Don't think
you are too good to help them. 1t
would be better for you not to have
any education, than for it to have
made you feel so that you 60 home

eight Jersey cows sold for $9,165,

MESA IN LEAD.

There seems to be much more stir
along the lines of socialism in Mesa
county, than in almost any other
county in the state. In fact, examin-
ing the exchanges which come to our
desk, we find few places where there
is any move along socialistic lines,
comparable to what is apparent in
Mesa county.
There is doubtless n raeson for this.
Mesa county has been selected by the
leaders in the socialistic movement as
center and it is hoped that enough
showing may be made in this county
to lead others to follow the lead of
Mesa. When populism was rampant
in this state, Mesa county could show
up more enthusiasts than to be found
any where else in the state. 1t is
the hope of the socialists that what
was done in populism in Mesa county
can be done in the line of socialism.
We do not believe that socialism
will ever find the followers in this
state that populism did. Socialism
is too little understood, its doctrines
are far fetched and untried, save in n

mia gets without asking. The rates

tember and October.
1t does not seem possible that the
Rio Grande road wants to hold back
this section of the state, from which it
gets its traffic. 1t looks very much
though, if that is the case. We hear from

list travel, but rarely do we hear any
thing about the efforts that the passen
ger department is making to secure
homeseekers.

golden opportunity offered the rail
roads to build up western Colorado
than now, and yet the golden oppor-
tunity is being let go by with nothing
doing to attract homeseekers. Cali
fornia and the roads leading to the
coast do not leave one stone unturned
to obtain every possible homeseeker
to visit the Pacific coast and to inves-
tigate the home lands offered in
