An Amusing Incident.

An incident during the royal visit 70
Edinburgh, which was the cause Of a
good deal of amusement at the time,
occurred on the occasion of the con-
ferring of the accolade by the king on
one of the newly made knights. The
worthy citizen, when placing himself
upon his knees in order to receive the
all-important tap on the shoulder from
the royal sword. knelt down in the
furry of the moment at such a distance
from the kings chair that he was quite
out Of reach. A sign was made tc him
~ some one in attendance to approach
nearer, whereupon the good man, with
out rising to his feet, shuffled along
on his knees until he got within the
required distance. His majesty ex-
pressed his interest by a genial smile,
while his gracious consort held up to
herface an enormous bouquet.-Moder1

wreck and with his nerves unstrung.
DAILY was convicted of assault with in
tent to murder William E. Smith. The
crime was committed at Moss Point,
Miss, in 1879. He was convicted on
May 26, 1881, and sentenced to the peni-
tertiary for five years. He escaped on
January 8, 1888, after serving a little
more than year and half There was
no trouble about the escape, but Daily
never got over it.
1t is probable that he will be pardoned.

freedom more than If he had been con-
fined all that time, and he is such a
physical and nervous wreck that he
could not possibly hope to serve out the
remaining three and half years of i'm
prisonment he owes the state: indeed. It
would take a very short term in the
penitentiary to kill him.

tensile strength of the five-eighths-inch
rope is very much greater than the ten
sile strength of the iron rod. and it has
this advantage. that it gives and takes
the expansion and contraction of heat
and cold better, and only needs one
buckle or coupling, and it is very much
more easy to put around. The round
silo is best in one respect, and that is be-
cause it has no corners.

about them is that they can be set any

The picture shows clearly how the
silo is built. The foundation is below

mortar. On this is placed stills of two

siding is stood up and braced by two
by eight or two by ten-inch scantling,
placed as shown. The corners are put

Of six-inch matched pine. The lumber
was as dry as could get 1t, and put to-
gether as tight as possible but found
after the first year that those boards
would shrink apart little, and that
many places would never get tigh,
again. That is the danger of the single
board silo, and also the danger Of the
poorly constructed round silo.

Owing to the retiring disposition Of wa
ter snakes few were captured and the
druggist increased his offer to 75 cents
Tor whole skins which were four feet ia
length. Even this did not bring as many

placed bounty of rs cents a head on
hedgehogs, and all the hunters forgot
the premium on snake skins in their
zeal for the new way of earning money.
Last week while three boys were
building fires at the mouth of the cave

that water snakes were swimming down

depredations became the joke of the

good-naturedly "guyed" until he got

neishbor. but I'll get that little devil
yet-and I'll get hip alive"
That night when the moon was we'll

Catching q Plymouth Rock chicken,
Pierce tied strong string to one &C
its legs and liberated the fowl on a
hill back Of the henhouse. Then he
took the other end Of the string.

carried it to a point back of the barn
where he could watch the hill without
being seen He sprinkled trail of
corn from the hill to the henhouse and
waited developments.
Then, says the New York World, the
chicken which had been given short
feed for a couple of days, took up the
end of the trail and slowly but surely
the corn made it's way into the hens
midst. When it stopped or digressed

along A light wind blew from the di-
rection of the hill, and when the fox
! showed up about midnight it failed to
scent danger.
First. the little animals nose ap-
peared over the hill, and then the
furry body, lying close to the ground
followed Pierce gave the string q
gentle pull and the chicken progressed
| toward the henhouse. The fox followed
and prepared to jump on it's prey
Just as 1t was getting ready to spring
the farmer gave the string another
jerk and the fox was forced to craw
along once more in order to get within
striking distance.
This was repeated several times. anC
before the silver fox knew it he wa

easy to snare him and place him il

That's disorderly conduct. 1 arrest

Then the man would display a badge
and prey on the young woman's fears
by describing the horrors of the station
house and picturing the shame of the
publication of her name in the newspa-
pers. Always the fellow demanded
money to release those whom he pre-
tended to arrest, and usually he got it.
The other night several young men
banded together to punish the pseudo
policeman. John Ring, disguised in his
sisters dress, basked in the sunlight
of Peter Sheenhan's smiles, while the
pair strolled along Hudson boulevard.
Suddenly in their path appeared a man
who proved to be John Carney.
"Spooning! Hugging! Actually hug
ging!" exclaimed Carney 'T arrest

"Oh, my! What will mommer say %
cried Ring, as shrilly as he could.
This was the signal to two husky COM
panions close at hand. The four fell ON
Carney and thrashed him within an inch
OF his life. Nor did Rings dress hamper
his blows. Carney had his assailants
arrested. Their punishment will be
light.

The Story Of a Southern Jean Vatican
Revealed Escaped Convict After Twenty Years OF Mental
lortue-ReveaIed his Secret to Friend Who Betrayed
Him to the Prison Authorities.

1" +. KELLY, alias Felix DAILY, who
~ has just been brought back to
the Mississippi penitentiary from
birmingham, Ala, to complete his SEN
tence, interrupted by an escape from the
penitentiary 20 years ago, tells re-
markable story of remorse and inability
TO Keep secret. The New York Sun
says that DAILY was living in Birming-
nam under the assumed name of Kelly
he had married there, had a son almost
grown, had done well in business and
had prospered generally. During the
~ years since he had escaped from the
Mississippi penitentiary he had greatly
aged, and had changed SO in appearance
that even the old wardens would not
nave known him. There was never the
slightest chance of his rearrest and i'm
pr1sonment, indeed. the fact that man
by the name of DAILY had escaped from
the Mississippi jail had been forgotten
by everyone
The only person VINO knew of it was
DAILY himself, but the knowledge SO
preyed upon his mind that he could not
keep the secret He wanted to confide
In everyone he met, and finally told his
0SOhy " d udu VINO 1nV6SUgateQ 1t,
found it true, and communicated the
facts to the Mississippi penitentiary au-
thorities. DAILY was rearrested, to the
great surprise of his family, and taken
back to the penitentiary. He made no
denial, but confessed his identity at
once, and expressed great relief that the
secret was off his mind.
1t has kept me in a condition of ner-
vous excitement for the entire 20 years"
said DAILY. Every day l expected the
officers to come and arrest me. Every
day l felt that ought to confess to the
authorities that was an escaped convict
and go back to the penitentiary and
complete my term"
Ihere can be no question that DAILY
| is telling the truth in regard to his
mental anguish and suffering. AS a
matter of fact, he has twice gone insane
through worrying over the matter with
out anyone imagining the secret that
had mentally unbalanced him. After a
| short rest in the asylum he recovered
and went back to his home his mind still
weighted with his past
Filled with the wild desire that DOS
sessed him to share his secret with some
one he opened the subject several times
with strangers, he says. He even went
to the governor Of Georgia to tell his

prevent his escape. They are so shy
that men seldom lay eyes on them,
and as for getting one alive no one
about here ever heard of such a thing.
The farmer never expected to see the
little animal again, but two mornings
later he got glimpse of a shining sill
very tail disappearing over the hill
back of the barn.
Believing that the fox had lost his
parents and was foraging for himself,
he came to the conclusion that he
would return. and laid plans to cap
ture him. He set several traps, and
even lay in wait for the animal, but
all to no purpose. Whenever trap
was laid the fox smelled trouble and
kept out of rifle shot. He even got
so wary that he confined his prowlings
to the midnight hours. Whenever the
farmer took rest, however, he was
sure to get into the henhouse and

price paid for snake skins, and for two
hours they piled green brush on the fire
and killed snakes. paying no heed to the
choking hedgehogs which ran by them
to gain fresh air. The smoke filled the
cavern so thoroughly that the snakes
abandoned their den to fall under the
clubs Of their slayers
In two days more than four hundred
snakes were slain and their skins sent
to Boston by express. Three days later
the druggist who cured rheumatism,
wired the shipper that he had all the
snake skins he could use for year, and
asked that no more be sent, as he would
not pay for them.
