she had seen a notice to the effect that
the steamer Combroa would leave for
South American ports at one O'Clock
Wednesday morning. Almost instant
ly had arisen the idea that Robert
Davis would take passage on that boat.
The day wore on. Eleanor had din
ner at an obscure country inn, and by
seven was within twelve miles of New
York. But it was a weary girl that
drew rein at pleasant farmhouse on
the main road. A motherly woman
came to the door, and no welcome was
ever more cordial than hers as she
drew the exhausted girl inside. There
is nothing like rural hospitality. By
eight O'Clock Eleanor was asleep, and
Wildfire had been rubbed down and
was enjoying his supper.
A quarter of e1eveni Eleanor awoSe
with start, dressed quickly and stole
out to the kitchen. There, with her
head on the table, the farmers wife
slept peacefully, while a boy dozed by
the fire. Eleanor turned the knob, and
as she did so, the boy opened his eyes
and looked at the clock In a few min
utes Wildfire was at the door, and the
girl was in the saddle. A hurried good
bye and she was gone, and something
bright shone in the boys hand as he
stood in the moonlight.
Just an hour and forty minutes later,
the officer patrolling the docks of the
steamship company was startled by
the touch of a woman's hand on his
arm, and still more surprised when
she requested him to accompany her
on board the Combroa in search of a
thief. He led the way on board the
steamer. They searched through the
staterooms until, as she was almost
ready to give up in despair, the officer
opened the door of the last room.
Eleanor looked in, recognized her man
in spite of his changed appearance
and turning to the officer said:
Search that man He has Eve hun
bred thousand dollars in United States
bonds belonging to the National Bank
of Glenwood.''
Robert Davis sprang forward, taken
off his guard by the voice of Arson
Aliens ward. Then, as he saw her
companion. he stopped, realizing tn,
futility of resistance Turning to his
suit case he took out TIN box and
handed it to the girl who had braved
so much for its recovery. Then he
stood awaiting his sentence. Time was
flying Eleanor looked searchingly at
the self-convieted man and then said,
as if satisfied with her scrutiny: Mr..
Davis, 1 cannot send you back to your
wife and children. an outlaw. Your
passage is undoubtedly paid in adj
vance Go-and when you reach your
destination, let me know and 1 will
telegraph sufficient funds to enable
| you to start anew, if you will" Then.
before Davis had time to speak, she
slipped away and stood on the dock
| as the officer hurried down the gang
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1903-10-24

The morning air rang with the shr1lI
cries of the newsbOys- Men bought a
paper, glanced at the headlines, and
understood the half incoherent words,
esBank's doors closed. All bout Davis
de embez-ler!"
In the library of an uptown resi-
dence, two men were standing by the
fire, talking in hurried tones. The
younger of the two had just come in
end stood, hat in hand, ready to de-
part The other shook his head as he
said: Its no use, Malcolm. We
might have tracked the scoundrel If
the papers had kept out Of it. Now
our every action will be public prop
orty."
eWell," the young man replied, 'the
outlook is rather discOUraging, L adj
init, but we are not yet at the end OF
our resources. l have wired Ross and
expect him on the 10: 40 If you APP
prove, 1 will go down and get list of
the missing bonds before he comes"
The father acquiesced. reassured for
the moment by the enthusiasm of the
younger man, Malcolm went out, turn
ing to say as he ran down the steps. Il
would not leave the house to-day,
father If we can stave it off a day or
Arson Allen went back into the
library. The events of the past
twenty-four hours had almost I'M
nerved him. He saw but one way to
retrieve his fortune. and that a way
hardly acknowledged to himself. If he
could only be sure about Malcolm and
MoIlie Payton. But then. there was
Eleanor. Since the day he took the
girl of fifteen from her dead fathers
bedside. Eleanor Howard had been as
his own daughter, and ner little for
tune grew under his able supervision.
Now that was gone, and he groaned in
misery.
He was not aware of her presence
in the library until she touched his
shoulder: then, he looked up, resolved
to keep the truth from her a day or
two at least. But not so Eleanor's
hand still rested on his shoulder, but
her eyes were taking in every word of
the staring headlines which had made
thai mornings issue of the Standard
"A memorable one. In that swift read
ing, everything stood revealed except
her share in tho disaster, and even
after her guardian told her that her
loss was even greater than his own,
she seemed unable to realize it's effect
upon anyone but Malcolm
Mr.. Allen carefully explained the sit
uation-from the investing of all
the available assets in United States
securities. to the loss of those securi-
ties the night before. And now. little
one" he resumed. there is little we
can save from the wreck if there is
r. run on the bank. You must be pro-
vided for, in any event. and to that
end / have transferred to you the
most valuable thing 1 possess. From
this morning, Wildfire is yours; and
when the crash comes, he will COM
mand price which ought to insure
you comfortable income"
Eleanor listened attentively. and
lnade a quick move as if to refuse the
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1903-10-24
POULTRY


Coops for Judging Fowls
At the Wisconsin State fair last
week we noticed what was to most
people q new feature in coops to be
used in judging. These were made
open on both sides. This gives the
light q full passage around the birds
and the judges have no trouble In see
ing the specimens they are to pass
upon. without removing them from the
coops- The judges do their work on
the opposite side from the crowd.
which is another advantage of this
arrangement. OF course the birds are
taken out of the coops and handled
when necessary, in any event With
the old style of coops, those open on
one side, there was always semi
twilight when the Judge, clerk and
owners of the birds got around them.
Then, too, it was always nuisance
to have people crowding in between
the Judge and the clerk making rec
ords for him. Now these two officials
have a whole row of coops between
themselves and other interested per-
sons.

Shocked the Diplomats.

An English magazine publishes
some amusing stories about American
diplomatists of the old school. At ST.
Petersburg on one occasion the car
addressed to the American minister
the purely formal question, 81 hope
you have good news from home" to
which came the startling answer:
Eyes. thank your majesty, excellent
news. 1t is boy and weighs twelve
pounds The diplomatic corps was
convulsed, but the car, who had just
been made a happy father himself,
sent his .'heartiest congratulations to
Nine. Ministre" Thereupon the
American fioored etiquette again by
lnquiring after the health of the en-
press, who backed up this appeal to
mere human nature some days later
by personally thanking him lin par
ticularly audible voice.

That First" Creamery.

That First" Creamery.
J. H. Monrad. writing in New YorA
Produce Review. says: I notice that
friends of C. w. Gould of Elgin arc
calling down the Iowa people who
claimed John Stewards creamery not
only to be the first In Iowa, but also
the first in the world, and make the
latter claim for C. w. Gould, who in
response to an inquiry wrote:
Your letter in regard to the date OF
the establishment of the Home
creamery reached here in due time
erected the building in 1865 for the
manufacture Of cheese on the co-opera-
tive plan; that is, the neighboring
farmers delivered their milk which I
manufactured into cheese, charging .
certain agreed rate per pound. When
the cheese was sold the proceeds were
pooled and q dividend declared and
the money distributed pro rata among
the suppliers Of milk according to the
amount delivered by each. had been
doing this in q small way in my own
private dairy house since 1859, but
as the business enlarged 1t became
necessary to provide better facilities,
SO the factory was built in 1866 and
continued in operation during the
warm months until fall of '67, when.
having quite run of milk, and butter
being high in price, I conceived OF
turning it into q combined butter and
cheese factory, which did and as the
price OF butter was very high for q
few years the experiment proved very
successful and soon many others en-
tered into the same business"
1t is little queer that-in view OF
this-I was not called down in 1899
when mentioned DIR. Joseph Tefft al
having started the first creamery in
Illinois >(1S70) in an article in the
Dairy Messenger, No. 4. made care
full inqueries at the time and gave Mr..
Gould credit for having made cheese
for his neighbors in 1864, and D. E.
Wood as having started the first large
cheese factory with steam-heated watts
in 1856. l confess to a suspicion that
Mr.. GouldS claim to a creamery is
confined to having partially skinned
his eesemilk-the first step on the
downward path which led to the skim
and filled cheese reputation of ILL.,
nOis.
However that may be 1 trust that
our Elgin friends will be satisfied with
making the claim of having started the
first creamery west of Chicago. As
to the first creamery in the world am
not sure. Denmark started her first
creamery at Marslev in 1868 and this,
believe, was the first creamery in
Europe. In New York, Orange Coun-
ty Milk Association started a butter
and cheese factory at Middletown in
1862 with 80 patrons and $50 cows,
and this is the first one know of, but
am not positive that it was the first
in the world. This shows the difficulty
of getting at historical facts only forty
years back, and appeal to the various
State Dairy Associations to secure and
publish such facts, which will be OF
great interest even if of no monetarp
value.

substances are very essential to the

For the morning ration give equal

cracked corn, kafir CORE, millet and

variety of grains is fed. In their free
state, pigeons can select a variety of
grains, avoiding one kind and choosing
another, as their appetites dictate, but
when they are kept in small en-
closure they must of course take what
the breeder gives lem. Hence, it
becomes highly important that the
breeder have good judgment as to
kinds and quality of food to set be-
fore them, and that he have interest
enough in his flock to avoid stinting
the quantity or feeding too largely of
one kind.
The six principal feeds are cracked

Cow Bells.

Scarlet. purple. orange light
Fades to palest green:
Farmhouse windows grow less brigh
Where the glare has been.
Dusky lie the fields about.
And. family heard again,
Far-off, thro the mist and dew,
Cow bells down the lane,
Tinkle, tinkle. clink-a-clink,
Cow bells down the lane.
Swallows cheep on circling wings,
Winds have chilly grown:
And the cricket shriller sings;
Trees look strange and lone
Nearer, clearer. past the woods,
A silvery refrain,
Winding slowly up the hill,
Cow bells down the lane.
Tinkle. tinlxle, clink-a-clink,
Cow bells down the lane.
Bess and Brindle, Snowflake, Jet,
Breaths like new-mown hay.
Dewy noses. trickling wet,
BARNARD wend their way.
One by one, faint. pearly stars
Watch the twilight's wane
And the put-up bars shut out
Cow bells down the lane,
Tinkle, tinkle. clink-a-clink.
Cow bells down the lane.
