HOW DID THE TURKEYS kNowq
Birds Had a Premonton of Coming
Disaster.

A Virginia farmer tells a story
which seems to indicate that turkeys
are not as senseless creatures as they
appear to be. zone night recently" !"
he says, myself and my wife were
out driving. As l was putting up the
horse after returning hime l noticed
my turkeys were not roosting as usual
in the big buttonwood tree by. the
barn. Instead they were perched on
the fence posts and in the limbs of
other trees.
1T struck me as mighty funny, as
turkeys on the place had roasted in
that tree ever since could remember.
That night about midnight a hard
wind and rain storm came up and the
old buttonwood blew down. Now,
how did those turkeys know that tree
was doomed? At sundown there was
no sign of a storm and the buttonwood
was fully fifty years old and apparent
ly as staneh as ever"

Masonic Picnic Disappearing.

The annual Southwestern Wiscon-
sin Masonic Picnic at Darlington on
June oath, was disappointment to
the management and fraternity gen.
orally, in the matter of attendance.
The exercises and arrangements,
however, were creditable to the local
lodge and citizens OF Darlington, de-
serving better support from masons
OF other towns. State School Super
intendent Harvey, who was to have
given the grafton, was prevented by
illness, but visiting mason from
Philadelphia was fouad all able sub
stitute, and with short talks by other
brethern, vocal and instrumental
music, made satisfactory program.
At the business meeting Mr.. A. $.
Douglas, of Monroe, was reelected
president, and David Schreiter, of
Darlington, secretary. The officers
were instructed to ascertain the
sense of the various lodges respect
ing a proposition to suspend the pic
mic for next year, and if one is to be
held, the officers to decide upon the
place.

piled to the High School ball nine
of this city. Last Thursday after
noon on the home grounds they COM
pletely outplayed nine picked play
ers from five of the most formidable
clubs in Lafayette county; defeating
them by the score of to 2.
Lafayette county was first to bat
and scored one run. The Highs fol-
lowed and were shut out, as were
they for the next three innings. then
they got a run, tieing the score. In
the next inning the visitors made
their other run. The boys then cross
ed home four times, giving them the
lead which they held for the remain
der of the game.
Ovitz struck out fourteen old vet
eran ball players, while Burke and

only three lay down the stick. This

REGULATING THE TRUSTS.

Instead of repeating the duties
that permit the trusts to exploit un-
mercifully home consumers; instead
OF taxing them as Senator Morgan
wisely proposes, the Republicans
simply propose to pass a publicity
bill. Congressman Littlefield of
Maine is to be its sponsor.
The bill provides for statements
on the part of the trusts showing the
amount of the capital stock, the
number of shares into which it is di-
vided, the par value of the same, the
amount paid in, and whether pay
ments were in cash or in property.
The chief object of these provisions
no doubt is to discriminate water
from real investments.
The Littlefeld bill further pro-
vides that no person shall be prose-
cuted Or subjected to any penalty or
forfeiture for or on account of anv
transaction, matter or thing concern
ing which he may testify or produce
evidence in relation to the trusts,
This provision will deprive the trust
magnates of the excuse that the Civ
ing OF any testimony would incrini-
nate themselves. If the publicity
bill becomes law all who are brought
into court must answer all ques-
tiOnS.
No doubt the Littlefield bill will
prove valuable in the process of
regulating the trusts, but it is mere
step towards regulation, and not
regulation itself. There are but two
effective plans open to Congress,
namely, the repeal of duties in the
cases of trust-made goods, and the
taxation of all combines as oleomar-
garine and State banks have been
taxed. The two latter were taxed
out of existence, and 80 may the
trusts be If Congress and the Repub-
ican party so desire. The people
will first have to elect Congress
that means business before the trusts
are in fact and in truth brought to
taW.

UNFROCKS HIMSELF.

Minister Publicly Rebuked His
WIfe-Question of Immor-
ality Involved.
Keokuk, Iowa, Sept. 22.-The
case of Rev. P. J. Henness, before
the Iowa Conference of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, came very
Dramatically to an end early today.
After the trial committee, appointed
by Bishop Hamilton and composed
of 13 prominent divines, had been
in session far into the night, Mr.
Henness himself took the stand. He
said it was evident to himself and
to his attorneys that he was not to
have fair trial, and he handed
the parchment of his ordination
to the committee, following which
he handed his resignation from the
ministry. Turning to his wife, who
was present, the self-unfrocked min
lister exclaimed:
"Woman, behold the wreck of a
man you have made." His wife
broke down at this dramatic exhi-
bition. The committee for the trial
of Mr.. Henness Immediately closed
its session, having lost its jurisdic-
ton of the case by his action of plac-
ing himself outside the pale of the
church.
Mr.. Henness, after maintaining
silence stubbornly for a year, said
today that the reason he left his wife
was because of her continual 'nag-
ging," which broke down his health
and rendered it impossible for him
to do ministerial work. The charge
against him before the Conference
was his separation from his wife,
whom he agreed to support, but re-
fused to live with. No question of
immortality was involved, the claims
of the prosecution being that Mr..
Henness' conduct was unclerical,
and that a minister TO separate from
his wife should not be sent out as
pastor over church by the bishop.
Mr.. Henness will go to North Da-
kota to engage in the mining busi-
ness. His friends say that a move
ment will be started from this case
to shave the General Quadrennial
Conference of the Methodist Church
take action against one of the oldest
and most prominent bishops, who al
so separated from his wife under
similar conditions.
