sition held each year In Chicago our
ing the first week in December is the
grand roundup Of all fairs and shows
of the year. At this exposition all
differences of opinion on previous
judgments rendered during the show
season are settled for the year. The
International is a harmonious blend
ing of the interest taken in the live
stock and agricultural industry of the
world at large; but more especially of
this continent, by the National Pure
Bred Record Live Stock Associations
and by the live stock and railway in
terests of the greatest railway and
live stock center of the world. The
Union Stock Yards Co. furnishes tho
housing and finances the show. The
railways grant extraordinary low
rates of fare for travel. The Record
Associations, through their member
ship, put forth the effort of the year to
make representative exhibit. The
week will be divided into special fea-
lures Of interest for both animal lover
and student. No such educational ex-
hibit is offered to the live stock and
agricultural people as this, their own
live stock exposition. The exhibits
this year, both in the breeding, indl.
vidual fat, and carload divisions az
the show will far exceed the two pre-.
vious expositions. People from all
over the civilized world will attend
this now world-famed event. VERY
low rates on all railroads. Ask near
est railroad agent. Write for booklet
on the show. Remember date az
show, November 20 to December 6.

When Pigs Have Scours.

TI9S F1dVC oCOAJSs
When little pigs get the scours,
give heaped teaspoonful of copperas
to the SOW in her swill and feed a
little lighter, says Texas Stock Jour-
nal. After the first day, If it is not
eQred, give second dose the follow
shg morning. l have never seen this
fail where given when pigs began to
scour, but let the scours run on from
three days to a week and they will
~aely be beyond control. Az the pigs
get older, provide a place where they
can get all. the shelled corn or ear
corn they want, clean out all they
leave every morning and give to old
or hogs. Give piggy fresh corn.
Sprinkle the floor where little pigs
eat with air-slacked lime occasional.
ly. AS the pigs get a little older and
want swill, mix the swill of clean
shorts, little oil meal, with sweet
milk and water, and add teaspoon
full of lime water for each pig, which
should be increased to tablespoon
full as the pigs get older. Feed this
when they get their corn. Be sure
their troughs are kept clean. If they
are accessible to the old SOW they
W.: not leave enough to sour. Con-
tinue lime water until the pigs are
five or six months old. Feed nothing
sour. II milk should be the least bit
cur, or tainted even, throw it away
if you have no fattening hogs to feed
it to. The pigs will easily get along
without milk for one feed, while the
dose of sour milk might set the pig
back for month or two. AS to the
lime water, it is easily made by put
ting piece Of unslacked lime in an
earthen jar or wooden pail. Put in
chunk about the size of quart cup
in a two-gallon jar; fill it with water.
When lime is all Stacked and water
gets clear, dip off water and throw
first away, refill, and when this is
clear, dip of the scum, when lime
water will be ready. Don't use any

A War Upon Goats.

The Western press reports from
Grand Junction, Colo., mention the
killing of six hundred Angora goats
valued at $4,000, by fourteen masked
men, presumably cattle herders, and
from Oregon it is reported two hun
dred and eighty sheep were sleugh-
tered by settlers and cattlemen the
same day. While not excusing law
1essness In any form, there must be
some good reason for the antipathy
which has for many years been shown
by Western settlers and cattle OWL
ers to the herding Of sheep and goats:
In Arizona, New Mexico and South
ern Colorado, as well as many other
places In the semi-arid countries,
there are. immense herds of goats
which have made the mountain sides
30 bare of grass that other animals
cannot exist, at the same time all the
coarse heritage is devoured.. by these
animals, and every Seeding tree de-
stroyed. It is utterly impossible for
forests to survive where goats are
pastured. This is simply repetition
OF SPANS experience upon her noun
tains, which resulted in the downfall
Of that nation, because no forest
trees could grow where goats were so
numerous. After the forests were de-
stroyed and climatic changes made
agriculture so difficult. the nation be-
gan its downward career. The prop
er way is> to punish the men who law
lessly commit these acts Of violence,
and to enact laws which will con1,ne
the herding of sheep and goats to
those lands where grass is abundant,
and limit the number in each herd 80
"a not to destroy the pasturage-
more especially to keep them forever
out Of the forest regions"

Twas the night before Christmas.
And all through the house,
Not creature was stirring,
Not even a mouse.
When mama awoke with a start and
shake,
And wondered why papa
Was so wide awake;
A rumbiing and roaring
Soon came to their ears
A noise that would follow them,
All through their years.
For down near the bath room
Fhe water rushed out,
And it caused poor papa
And mama to shout.
"Oh, why did we make such a fearful
mistake;"
''Oh. John dear, I fear that
My poor heart will break,
Unless you will promise
That tomorrow you'll call

Go over it all.
And then no more leaks,
For we know that tits true,
That folks always call Bath

WORLDS FAIR NEWS NOTES.

WORLDS FAIR NEWS NOTES.
Newsboys' Day at the Worlds Fair
will be August 16.
The University at Cardiff, Wales, will
make an exhibit in the Department of
Education at the Worlds Fair
Five hundred thousand incandescent
electric lamps will be employed in the
illumination of the Worlds Fair
grounds and buildings.
Germanys pavilion at the Worlds
Fair is under roof. The building is
replica of the castle at Cnarlottenburg
and the plans were revised by EN-
peror William.
Texas unique star-shaped building
at the Worlds Fair is receiving it's
staff ornamentation. It's peculiar
shape and its great dome renders it
conspicuous among the state struc-
lures.
New York grape growers have two
tons of choice grapes in cold storage
and will display them in the Palace of
Horticulture on the opening of the
Worlds Fair.
A reproduction of the cottage in
which the grandfather of the late
President Mckinley was born, in Ire
land, will be one Of the features of the
Irish exhibition at the Worlds Fair
Two acres Immediately west of the
Palace of Agriculture at the Worlds
Fair grounds have been converted into
a natural garden. There may be seen
all the wild flowers and shrubs indig-
enous to the Mississippi and Missouri
valleys.
NOT ELI -
Tyrolean Alps at the Worlds Fair did
not add much to their whiteness. The
peaks at ST. Louis with their staff COW
erings are as dazzling in whiteness as
/, are the real Alps.
A model of the Assouan Dam, which
is on the first cataract of the Nile, will
be exhibited in Great Britain's display
at the Worlds Fair. The model is
sixteen by four feet and is the property
of Sir Benjamin Baker, the engineer of
the dam.
One of the most notable of the his
toric portrait statues for the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition has just been
completed by the well known New
York sculptor, Herbert Adams. The
subject is the Spanish explorer of the
shores of the Gulf of Mexico, Panfilo
Narvaes. The work is worthy of the
genius of this noted artist and gives
one a vivid impression of the pictur-
esue and romantic figure represented
in this piece of sculpture. Mr.. Adams
has executed many well known stat
ues, some of his work being in the
Congressional Library at Washington.
The famous Goddess of Light" of the
Pan-American Electric Tower was by
this sculptor.

AN INCIDENT OF THE
SIEGE OF CHARLESTON

partment of the South, came up from
Hilton Head with staff officers and
civilian visitors, and anchoring in Folly
river, signaled ashore, Advance and
engage the enemy"
Grim old Col. Montgomery, of Kansas
fame, told me while forming for at
tack, that troops enough could not be
placed on James Island to take those
works if they were manned.
1t was beautiful day. Every move
ment of our troops was in full view
of the enemy, across the open space
of country between Grimball's and the
Confederate lines. A series of lunettes
or half moons was half mile perhaps
in front of their works. I was placed in
command of the attacking force, con-
sisting of the 55th Mass, 33rd U. S.
Cboth colored regiments), 54th n. Y.
and 144th N. z.
Line was formed for the attack, and
at the word of command, repeated by
each regimental commander, the troops
advanced in perfect alignment, colors
flying, bands and drum corps playing.
On nearing the lunettes, which opened
on US with musketry, the regiments
We're formed in column, without halt
ing, and easily dislodged the Charleston
battalion under Major Manigault which
was behind them. But now the big
guns of Pemberton and other batteries
in our front began to give us a suit
able reception, and orders were sig
nailed to fall back 1t was evident
that James Island had not been left
undefended. Manigault was captured,
L.
loss, as I recall it, was something over
one hundred in killed and wounded.
A few days after, another attempt
to get into Charleston was made
via Bulls Bay, where by aid
of the navy under Admiral Radford a
landing was effected in boats at place
called AndersonviIle, (of this in a later
paper).

(The following incident is from a pa
per recently read before the Honolulu
Social Science Association by Gen. A.
S. Hartwell giving his "reminiscences OF
the Civil War)
HOW WE DID NOT GET INTO
CHARLESTON.
1t was February. Z, 1865, Sherman.
again casting loose from his base of
supplies, and telegraphic communica-
ton with Washington, was corduroying
his army through the Congaree swamp
below Columbia, slowly but inevitably
making his way through South Caro-
lima, to fail upon the rear Of Lees
army, unless Johnston who was mass
ing an army on his left wing, should
prevent.
Here perhaps was our chance TO get
into Charleston, not through the win
dow, as Beauregard characterized the
attempt via Fort Sumter, but by the
way, so often tried in vain, of James
Island. What so natural as to find the
strong line of rebel works across that
island left weakly defended so that
tney cOulO De taken Dy assault.
And so Saxton with his brigade came
up from Beaufort to Johns Island, op-
posite James, intending to divert the
enemy and perhaps induce him to send
a force across the Stone river. Our
gunboats in the river engaged Fort
Pemberton the extreme left of the
rebel works. Schimelpfennig took
his forces from Morris and Folly ISL
ands, via Coles Island, across to
James, stationing them at the Grim
bali" house; but the Confederates show
ed no indication Of diverting their
forces to any extent to meet Saxton,
and Pemberton replied to the gun
boats: Was Hardee still holding on at
Charleston, instead of following up
Sherman's army to join forces with
Johnston?
It was thought to be worth while to
try an assault. Gilmore back from Vir-
ginia to his old command of the De-
