The work of reclamation of the arid lands of the West Is progressing steadily and satisfactorily under the terms of the law setting aside the proceeds from the disposal of public lands. The corps of engineers known as the Reelamat on Service, which is conducting the surveys and examinat tons, has been thoroughly organized, especial pains being taken to of skilled experienced. and efficient men Surveys and examinations are progre g. ing throughout the arid States and Tefri- tories, plans for retaining works be ng prepared and passed upon by boards of engineers before approval by the Secre- tary of the Interior. In Arizona and Me- vada. in localities where such work iS pre-eminently needed. construction has already been begun. Tn other parts of the arid West various projects are well ad. vanced towards the drawing up of com tracts, these being delayed in part by necessities of reaching agreements or UT. derstanding as regards rights of way or acquisition of real estate. Most of the works contemplated for construction are of national importance, involving inter. state questions or the securing of stable self-supporting communities in the midst of vast tracts of vacant land.

Rev. crutehteld's Tribute.

Rev. Crutchfeld. st. Paul's church,
was an intimate friend of the deceas-
ed woman, and a close friend of hei
family and after hearing from Mr..
Fairchild what he knew of the shoot
ing, he gave out the following, at the
same time paying a high tribute to the
deceased. He said:
MRS. Fairchild's very virtues were
the cause of her untimely end. She
was open hearted and kind to every
one and had treated young Peterson
as a younger brother and the unfortu-
nate fellow, through infatuation, killed
her and then himself, or tried to rob
her and killed her to prevent detec'
ton; and then overcome by remorse
and muddled by drink, killed him.
self.
"She was the friend of everyone,
and the better known the better was
she loved. She was sincere and truth
full. and made friends wherever she
lived. She has been a paragon OF
daughterly affection and during the
past two years since her marriage she
has shown continual proofs of true
womanliness in a thousand ways.
1T can be truly said of her as Solo
mon said of a true oman, The heart
of her husband doth safely trust in
her. If the poor mad man who dice
in the same room was infatuated witt
her it certainly was no fault of hers
Any one who has taken the pains tC
examine the evidence is Immediately
convinced that wherever the blame
lies for all this blood and crime
whether it be drink or lunacy, gam
bling or robbery, or all combined
Media Fairchild was not the cause but
only the victim of this most deplor
able tragedy, and the whole commun
ity is in deep sympathy with the hus
band and bereaved family"

Mcfarland Of Baca County, Colorado
was on the market Wednesday with
three loads of cows from his ranch,
which he had brought to Missouri in
January, and kept on full feed since
then. They were so poor at the time
that he thought they would not live
through the winter in Colorado. but
they brought $3.50 Wednesday, realiz-
ing a nice profit.
The general market today is steady

however, are distinctly lower than
last Monday.
Sheep receipts at Kansas City last
week were liberal at 35.312 head, as
compared with 1850 the same week
last year. The week netted a steady

inquiry for lambs, of which very few
arrived after Monday. Today the run

steady to 10 cents lower on lambs. The
first sales of lambs were on a steady
basis, but lower eastern reports weak

against $3.50 asst Monday. Other sales
were made at s725. and ewes $+.75
Texans sold from $4.15 to $4.75. Con
sidering the size of the run, and tn
lower trend of values, the movemen
today was very satisfactory.

the LAST SAD RITES.

From the Sun. May 20.
In the presence of a few friends and
relatives yesterday, the last sad rites
were held over the remains of Mrs.
Oliver NJ. Fairchild, daughter of
Charles NJ. Tyler of this city, who met
such a tragic death in El Paso, Texas,
and with touching ceremonies the re-
mains were laid to rest in the City
cemetery.
The body arrived in the city at S
O'Clock yesterday morning and was i'm.
mediately taken to Barton & Catick's

The sad scene was made ever more
pathetic by the appearance of Mrs.
Tyler, the mother, who has been seri-

act of taking a quantity of skins by
the watchman of the concern. The
watchman told Of what he had seen,

leather for some time. but could get
no clew that would lead to the capture
of the thief. The skins which the young
man took on this last occasion were re-
covered at his home by Patrolman
Andrew Harllns.

that he had stolen skins from his em-
ployers to the amount of between ST.

Good Neck Movements

This is the season when women yearn for
weIi-developed necks and the appended
formula is said to be excellent for the
same.
The first movement consists in allowing
the head to drop gently upon the breast
as far forward as 1t viii without straining.
Next raise the head and throw It as far
back as possible. Then forward again, etc.,
until the movement has been performed
twenty times. Next the head is turned as
far TO the side as possible, the body re-
naming motionless. the head bent toward
the shoulder as low as Il will reach with
out an actual strain of the muscles and
tendons This movement should be prac-
ticed also twenty times, the neck first
turned to the right and then to the left,
ten times on each side. The same move
ment with the chin raised as high as pos
sible, repeated in the same fashion, first
toward the right, then the left.

Growing Petunias

A stand by for the home garden be-
cause so easily cared for, SO hardy and so
lavish of bloom, is the petunia, which
comes in such beautiful shades of crimson
and violet. Some varieties have flowers
of white rose color and all colors COM
bined. All are rich and pleasing in effect,
especially when massed together and
grown in beds reserved especially for
them.
It is best to make choice Of the double
petun'a for growing in the garden, though
the single varieties win bloom most pro-
lincally all the winter If given any sort of
chance. 1t is best to grow the plant from
cutting as there is always doubt as to
what a seeding viii be like.
Petunias grow well when trained along
a trellls, or when allowed to droop. 1t is
not at all particular. II LAVISH bloom is
desired, 1t must be cut down frequently
as uhe towering depends on the new
growths. Prune it well from time to time
as you see the flowers dwindllng and give
frequent treatments with liquid manure.
Seeding plants from the garden viii make
the house beautiful all through the winter
but for this purpose the crimson and pur.
pie varieties seem best adapted. They viii
bloom until the strength Of the plant is ex.
hausted.

Teach Girls These Things

Mending and daIning are most
womanly accomplishments. Many
girls who neglect this important part
of their training find it difficult to ac-
quire after marriage-the time when
a knowledge Of such things is most
needed.
The young mother who has had the
experience should realize all the more
the importance Of teaching her chill
dren.
From the time a child can hold a
needle in her little hand she should be
shown how to mend, beginning with
her doll clothes and gradually becom-
ing responsible for the rents in her
own garments.
Teach her that it is as important to
mend her clothes as to learn her school
or music lesson; that all are equally
essential, and that the earlier she be-
gins the more easily will the lesson be
learned.
This training infuses into the child
a certain individual independence and
responsibility. 1t win also have the
effect of making her more careful of
her clothes when playing.
A child's education does not consist
i'm books alone. It is broader and more
far-reaching. DO not neglect any
phase of it.
