Throughout the three years that the
case has been dragging through the
courts the defendants numerous
friends have remained staunch. An
application will probably be made to
the governor for commutation, and It
is not likely to meet with resistance
or even a remonstrance.
Queenan's attorneys are j. W. John
son, Howard a Ames and Stllwell II.
Russell The latter made the argu-
ment in the case before the supreme
court of the United States.
Since the tragedy Queenan's father
has died and it is believed. from
grief and worry over the matter. and
it is feared his poor old mother will
not suzsfve the later intelligence. His
brother was advised of the supreme
courts decision last night, and went
home to break the sal news to the
family.

Story Of QneeHans
killing Of His Wife

Queenah must hang on the 9th
day OF January. 1900. Thomas Patrick
Qucenan. now 80 years Of age. twice
shot and killed his wife. and has been
{ mined in the Oklahoma county jail
c7er since. On the date of the trag-
6 iy. just a few minutes before the
oon hour he threw his overcoat over
his shoulder and left Oscar Ragan's
saloon on Broadway. where he was at
tending bar. He went out on Broad.
way and entered the Two John saloon
nearby, passed out the back way and
out of the alley. going westward on
Grand avenue to Harvey. thence north
TO Main street and east to where he
lived upstairs over a grocery store in
a frame building located al about the
place wneree the Ryan building now
stands He went upstairs and into the
house. A moment arter he went up
someone took mp some groceries and
Queenan met him at the door. Then.
within not to exceed FIVE minutes
time two shots were fired. Then
Queenan jumped through the upstairs
west window. carrying with him the
screen, sash and glass. ami fell to the
ground where he was found, and when
induced to speak he said something
about having killed his wife and baby.
Instead of having been killed, the
child in some way had gotten down the
back stairway and was later found in
the back yard. His wife was found
lying dead on thel1itchen floor, with
two bullet wounds in her body No
cause for the crime has ever been
discovered or even suggested. II is a
mystery.
Queenan did not drink. He was
never known to be intoxicated He
was never known to quarrel or use
offensive language. He had no bad
habits except that he was known to
have gambled only short time before
the tragedy occurred.
His pistol was empty when found.
Queenans wife was Ella Housh. She
was the only woman he had ever been
known to care for or appear at all
interested in outside his own family.
They had been married four or five
years and had at chat time one little
daughter, named Rowena.
Shortly prior to his marriage Quee-
nan had conducted barber shop on
the south side of Main street, at a
point about where the new Lion store
is now located, where Ella Housh was
employed in a millinery store on the
opposite side of the street They
married after a brief courtship. His
wife's character, so far as known. was
above reproach, and there seemed to
have been no occasion for jealousy on
the husbands part, and he has never
intimated such a thing.
During his three years of confine-
ment Queenan has been a model pris-
oner, and though he has mad a number
of opportunities to make his escape,
he has never shown the slightest dis
position to get away. He has at all
times manifested absolute Indifference
as to the final outcome of his case,
which has been a matter of mystery
to his friends and lawyers as well as
to the general public.
Queenan was indicted February 21,
the succeeding month. He was con
yicted and sentenced 10 hang. An ap-
peal was taken to the territorial SUI
preme court, where the case was af-
trmed. It was then taken by writ of
error to the supreme court of the
United States and the final verdict has
been given.

for them extends from Christmas &c
Easter, according to the Ohio Farmer
correspondent, who further says:
To prepare a dressed lamb for ship
ment sew about each lamb a square
yard Of clean. new muslin, as shown
in the cut. We have shipped in vari-
GUS ways, and by both express and re-
frigerator freight. We now place each
lamb on a stretcher, as shown in the
second figure, and then wrap in burlap.

We tried shipping in crates, but the
crates would get crushed.

in form from the stretcher shown with

about two inches wide and half-inch

Dry Quarters for Horses.

In the days Of muddy yards it takes a
surprisingly short time for even a few
horses or cattle TO tramp a moderate

it is a positive shame to ask horses

not much matter how much asking is
done, the horses will not lie down. In
stead, they will hang around the driest
spots in the yard, where the mud is
least deep and chew and gnaw all night.
They keep awake. and must have some
thing to do, so they get into one of the
worst and most annoying habits that
ever cursed a horse, young or Old

POULTRY PARAGRAPHS.

There are no lice on incubator ant
brooder chicks. This is one advantag,
in artificial rearing.
Throw the grit for the ducks in tbei,
drinking water. They like to fish for
it. just watch them 90 for water and
this grit while feeding.
A little charred corn twice a week
will help TO keep the combs Of the hens
red and the plumage glossy. This
means plenty Of eggs.
Many a case OF cold in the head and
incipient roup is due to winds striking
the fowls at night on the perches.
Look out for your fowls.
The young broods should be shell
tered from the spring winds. The coops
should be inside Of open sheds. or be
protected by buildings, fences or wind
breaks Of corn fodder.

INDIAN RUNNING DUCK.
hSrdy breed which Responds
Readily 10 Good Feeding and
Little Care.

The Indian running duck is what
might be called an all-around practical
duck, says Walter f. Delano. in the
American Poultry journal. The gen.
eral makeup Of these ducks seems TO
De unlike many others. inasmuch as
they have so many points in their ia
vOr.
FIRST, the color and plumage are very
attractive. being of fawn color mixed
with white, the brakes having a steel
blue cap, with a distinct white line run
nlng from the eye around the back Of
the head TO the eye opposite, the pure
white neck, the fawn colored breast
and back. tapering off with white in
wing flights and tail. They are strong
and erect, alert in every motion and
very hardy.
Second, their laying qualities are
such that they have been called and
are known to-day as the Leghorn of
The duck family. One breeder claims
Tor one individual duck a record Of 1872
eggs per year.

STOCK
HOW TO SHIP LAMBS.
II Pays Wen TO Prepare the Carcasses
with Neatness, Each Placed on
Stretcher.

Winter lambs for market should
weigh not less than 4j pounds alive, and
be fat. This condition is determined
somewhat accurately by feeling the
brisket and the tail near the body. A
high degree Of fairness is more impor-
tant than weight as they sell by the
carcass, rather than by weight. The
weight Of two lambs being the same,
the younger one will sell higher. The
evidences Of age are the fleece and the
degree Of Justification in the bones.
Most lambs are marketed between the
ages OF ten and 16 weeks, a few as

\ breeder thus tells how he prepared
bath for swine: "Some years ago
we tried an experiment by making a
shallow bath. four feet wide and ten
feet long, of planks, with sides eight
inches high. This. being bedded in
puddled clay, was easily made water
tight. The whole thing did not cost
more than three hours labor. Water
was pumped from a stock well near by
and run into this bath by a spout.
Gravel was placed some inches deep
around the bath to prevent mud. The
water was drawn off and the hath re-
filled every day. The pigs did not re-
quire any teaching. We have seen
seven pigs in il at once, and the others
trying to root them out so they could
get possession"

Pigeons need the least care Of any

them on a large scale, a proper loft
must be constructed. A suitable place
for them is on a floor, in the top Of a

Expert Picking Of Pou1trr.

Some of the expert pickers of poul-
try can take the feathers off the fowls
so quickly as TO astonish one who does
not understand the operation. II Is
done by dipping eNa carcass in cold
water and allowing it to drip. Finely
pulverized resin is then busted over
and among the feathers. which causes
the feathers to stick to the hands. even
the pin feathers coming out with but
little difficulty. Use the common
crude resin, about one-half teaspoon
full for each fowl.-Farm and Fire-
