How Fast Do Birds Fly7

From the St. Joseph News.
 William w. Murphy, a locomotive en- gineer on the Burlington's fast express between Hannibal and St. Joseph, has been making observations on the speed of various birds and insects. Many birds. he says, make practice of flying beside or in front of his engine, and when the weather is clear and there is no wind he opens the throttle and races with them
 He finds that a chicken hawk and a crow can make twenty-five miles an hour. turkey buzzard flies at the rate of twenty-one miles an hour The pigeon Is one of the fastest birds in the United States. It makes a speed of forty-six miles an hour with ease. When chased by an eagle 1t can beat the Burlingtons s St. Louis express The wild duck Is travelling at the rate of forty-four miles an hour while the hunter is pumping the contents of a repeating gun at it. The backbrd robin, dove and other small birds travel at a speed of thirty-elght miles an hour. The humanning bird can. and does, excel a speed of a mile per min ute. Murphy says that A honey bee the other day, flew in and out of his cab win dow while he was going at the rate of sixty-three miles an hour The perform ance lasted while the engine travelled half mile.

JUDGE FEAGIN ID
 ATTEMPT NEW PLAN
Will Try Raising Chickens on
 Probation Farm
ANOTHER ADVANCED STEP
Judge FeasIn Believes the Inherent Love of Negroes for Chicken Will
 Result In Making Them
 Good Chicken Raisers.

So strong is Judge Feagin,s belif in the inherent love of negro for a chicken that he has developed a novel scheme In con ducting tine negro farm near Tuscaloosa.
 The plan is no less than to turn the farm into a hennery, and he believes that the little negroes who are banished to that place will be able to raise enough chickens to make it more than pay for itself.
 In connection with this plan Judge Fea- gin will secure an expert from either the school of Booker T. Washington or that of W. H. Council, who will have entire charge of the farm and will instruct the boys in the best methods of raising and caring for chickens. He believes that any number of chickens raised on this farm will find a ready market in Birmingham, and that they can be raised so as to pay a handsome dividend on the invest ment. enough in fact to take care of the farm and the boys.
 JudgeFeagin will secure the best litera- ture on poultry from the department of agriculture at Washington, and he be- lieves that these latest and most improved methods of raising chickens will enable the negro boys to raise better chickens than those raised elsewhere
 The judge has been securing statistics on this subject and he finds that about half a million chickens are sold in Bir- mingham annually, and that they bring an average price. wholesale of 121a cents which makes total of about $65.O00 an- nually. There are several dealers in poultry in the city who have stated that they will take all the chickens raised on this farm just as soon as possible.
 As is well known all the little negro boys who come Judge Feagin's court are sent to farms of the state to get them off the streets of the city. This probation system started by Judge Feagin Is sup posed to be the most modern and best ever tried, and if he can get the present plan into operation it will be one more step in advance of the other cities where the negro boy has to be dealt with by the police.

TWO NEGROES HAVE
 BLOODY RENCONTRE
STREET IN BLocToN IS SCENE OF BATTLE-SHoTGUNS ARE USED AND ONE NEGRO IS FATALLY WOUNDED.

Two negroes in Blocton indulged in an rencontre with shot guns yesterday about noon. One of them was fatally wounded and the other is in a serious condition. The negroes caused the greatest excite ment that Blocton has known for a long time. and crowds were gathered on the streets discussing the fight.
 It seems thiA one of the negroes mar ried the other negros giri and the fight grew out of the wedding One of the ne- groes made his appearance with shot gun, and stated that he was looking for the other negro. The news was conveyed to the other man. and he also secured a shot gun.
 They met in the center of the most prominent business street of the city and both opened fire. Both negroes were wounded by the first barrels of the guns, but they were not satisfied. and each emp tied the other barrel at his opponent.
 After exhausting their shooting ability the two negroes came together and beat each other over the head with the butts of the guns. Blood was flowing freely from each. and they fought like two tigers for five or ten minutes until the arrival of officers, who separated them and placed them under arrest.
 The four shots fired in the center of Blocton drew the crowds from all direc- tions.
 One of the negroes is Tom Dickson. He is badly wounded and is in aaiL The other is named White. and is fatally wounded. He is in the hospital and will die. At the latest report he was in very serious condition and expected to die any minute.
 Levy White. the negro who was shot was brought to Birmingham last night and carried to St. vincents. He has a bullet in the head and is in serious condition. He is the one who got married, and the shooting took place few minutes afterwards.

Baskets for the Autos.

From the New York Sun.
 Making baskets for automobiles is all most a special trade of itself. A basket weaver of this city was quick to see that the business was likely to be profitable, so he set up factory. and made auto mobile baskets his sole speciality.
 This speciality in basket weaving re- quires peculiar skill because 1t is hard to fashion the curves so as to fit snugy
 in the sinuosites of the motor cars Pol- ish basket weavers who learned and long praeticed their trade in Europe seem to have special aptitude for this particular kind of basket work.
 The materials that go into the baskets are reeds, whole or split; whitewoods cylindrical bits of birch, leather. brass for the hinges, and rubber oil cloth for the water-p proof lining. A basket once well made, and coated with shelac, will last almost forever barring accidents, and will ordinarily need no repairs beyond new coat of shelac at the end of tho sea- son.
 Some of the largest and best made side baskets sell as high as $50 pair. Smaller ones are as low as $i5 a pair. and the average price is about s3o a pair. Special baskets made to order may be consider ably higher than the highest price here indicated.
 The long narrow. rear baskets for walk ing sticks and umbrellas may cost any, where from 8 to $25 Especially long baskets for golf sticks are about $25.
 Most of the material that goes into these baskets Is of native production. though some of the reed comes from the Orient and some from the West Indies. The manufacturers used to edge the bas- ..rt4I a.1. k..t H.. continuing the use of this material as adding too much weight. and as unneces- sary to the proper strength of the bas- kets,
