A ROUJING RALLY
AND GOOD SPEECHES

The Young Mems Republican Club
held a good, old-time rally Saturday
might at their headquarters, corner Of
Hotel and Bethel streets. The prin-
Cpal event Of the evening was the ban
ner raising, accompanied by fireworks
of all kinds. This banner was stretched
across Hotel street amidst the music
OF the Portuguese band and many other
noises. There were at least five hun
dred people present The meeting last
ed about two hours. The Attorney
General presided and opened up with
u few remagks on county government.
J. 4. Gilman was the first speaker.
He made a good impression, closing
with the following: Il placed my name
III candidature and took up the fight
because | wanted TO see the matter
carried out on business principles and
! expect to give ii as much considera-
tion as II It were the business OF my

WHY HOGS ROOT.
When the Animals Are Fed Their Shouts Shorten and Be-
 come Useless.

According to the New York Farmer a writer on swine says: It is the hogs nature to root, and nature has provided 1t with not only the propensity but the implements to indulge It.. As the wants of the animal are supplied without root ing, the roofing portion of the pig be- comes less suitable to the purpose, as all the improved breeds are shortening up in the nose and snout
 Hogs root for worms and tubers or grass roots. These not only aid as ra- tion of maintenance, but as a regulator and conditioner of the system. The desire to root at the present time is symptom usually that the stomach de- mands something that it is not receiving,
 Hogs that are fed on dry corn or grain feed develop this desire for roofing, as the hog endeavorS to secure that which will relieve it, To prevent this condition we would feed plenty of charcoal or wood ashes, also a little oilmeal, to get them into proper condition.
 An animal that forms the habit of root ing will root regardless of demands It is as hard to break it of the habit as Is the chewing of tobacco in the human race, and the only preventive is some system of ringing to prevent the use of the snout.

CITY OF CROCODILES.
Striking Ruins"O of "CrCcodflopolis"
 Said to Have Been Built = by Pharaoh. +-

The crocodile one of the most sacred animals of the east has given its name to several ancient sites, says the Phila- delphia Ledger. Of the various Cities of Crocodiles," the names of which have been handed down to us by Herodotus, Plhny and Strabo, perhaps the most striking was the "Crooodilopolis" of the ancient Egyptian province of Fayum. which according to tradition, was built by that Pharaoh, who made the lives of the children of Israel bitter with hard service"
 This province lies within an almost complete circle of hills-R little oasis in the midst of the desert, where roses and grapes mingle with figs and olives, and palm trees grow almost into for ests.
 It's capital is Medinet, and little to the north of the city are number of ir- regularly shaped mounds. Beneath these are the ruins of the Pharaoh built "Crocodilopolis," the City of Croco- diles," later called Arsinoe, and the shrine of the sacred crocodile of the neighboring Lake Moeris, which was then 450 miles in circumference.
 This lake held the sacred crocodiles, and as each one died in turn it was buried in one of the 1500 underground sepulchers of the world-famed "Laby- rinth" at hand. side by side with the embalmed bodies of successive Pha-
