CARNEGIE GIVES $5, 900.
Makes Contribution to the Fund fol
 Ex-Governor PattisOn's Widow

Philadelphia, Nov 1O.-Andrew Car negie yesterday sent check for $o,- GOO to the committee controlling the fund which is to be used for the sup port of the late ex-Governor Robert E. Pattison's widow. With it was a letter in which MT Carnegie expressed his regret that public men who were pure should all die poor. This brings the fund up to $13,437.
 Elk Governor Pattison was the only man who ever carried Pennsylvania twice for the governorship As he was democrat this fact is all the more remarkable. When William Singeriey was wiped out financially, Pattison, whose friend he was, was wiped out also. When he died he left his family nothing but mortgages on his home.
 MT Pattison was serving his, second term as governor when the strike at the Carnegie mills was followed by the riots at Homestead. He ordered out the entire division of the National Guard and restored order.

IN THE POLICE COURT.
Han Who Pretended He Was a Cripple
 Got Thirty Days.

John McMahon, the only profession al beggar to be found in Waterbury, was sentenced to thirty days in jail by Judge Peasley in the city court this morning. McMahon has not worked i'll fifteen years. Yesterday he was palming himself off on housekeep- CTS in Brooklyn as a one armed man, the right sleeve of his coat hanging empty by his side, while his arm was wrapped up in bandages underneath. He went to Brooklyn after he had made tour of Bank street. McMa- hons defense was that he broke his arm, but when, he could not recall, 1t was so long ago. It will be about forty days before he can annoy people again.
 The case against Rocco Famigletto of West Main street for assaulting Mrs Marie Perello was continued again to Saturday morning. Fami- gletto is under bail of $500.
 A case against Henry Quigley for non-support was continued for thirty days as he had agreed to pay his wife a weekly sum.

THE SIDE WALK LAW.
Board of Works May Abolish System
 Now in Use.

The board of public works wants te abolish the law which obliges the city to repair sidewalks and go back to the old plan of forcing abutting prop
 erty owners to do the work. This seems strange especially when every.
 body knows that the sidewalks are simply part of the streets and that the abutting property owners do nof own them. Why should they be com. pelled to maintain them? That side
 walk law as it now stands Is fair to everybody The public owns the walks and the public uses them. Why
 shouldn't the public care for thenj
 The law was abused at the outset and rendered unpopular, evidently with q
 well defined purpose in mind. Over S3,7 of the appropriation was paid
 to one contractor, who did the work as he pleased and got 54 cents yard
 for the job. After good deal of fault-fnding on the part of the public halt was called and bids asked for,
 with the result that one reliable con.
 tractor offered to do patching for Q
 cents yard, p cents yard less than
 the board had been paying, so that
 reaiiy the board made present Of
 about $1,5O0 of the money appropri-
 ated for repairing sidewalks, and now
 they go to the aldermen and represent
 that the act should be repealed be- cause 1t does not pay. More side walk repairing can be done by the city if handled properly for $5,OO0 or $6.OOO than people can get done by attending to 1t themselves for i've times that amount. The law never
 was popular with concrete men, Whr
 should 1t? 1t put most of them out of
 business, but they were able to turn
 their hands to something else and mons of them suffered Within the past two weeks a Waterbury man who does splendid concrete work told a repre- sentative of this paper that he should De glad to furnish a bond to do all sidewalk repairing for less than half
 the price per yard the city paid MT Wilmot for $2,700 worth of that class
 of work Why should the\ law be
 changed, then? If we 20 back to the former method who will profit by 1t, the concrete men or the taxpayers? r. is an easy matter to answer this ques- tion. The aldermen should inquire
 into this matter before passing upon 1t. During the present year the city has spent $5,O0O fixing sidewalks In front of property owned by people who
 positively refused to do anything with them for yeafs, and now they recon
 mend that the law be repealed and
 begin next year by ordering every. body to do this work at his own, ex. pense. If anybody neglects to com ply with the order the prosecuting at torney will attend to his case, or the superintendent of streets may do the work and put lien on private proper ty for the cost of this public improve ment. The repeal of the law would
 be good thing for the concrete men
 and the lawyers, but may be an injus- tice to everybody in Waterbury wh0 | owns a foot of real estate. most of whom have all they eau do to meet their legitimate expenses without
 going outside the street line to spend
 money.

BRAN IS EXCELLENT.
Poultry ThRive On II Because 1t Con-
ta1ns = Generous Proportion
of Rich Lime.

Bran - excellent for poultry, and
one point in favor of bran il that
it contains a much larger proper
ton of lime than any other cheap
food derived from grain, and as the
shells of eggs are composed of lime
it is essential that food rich in lime
be provided. 1t may be urged that
the use of oyster shells will pro-
vide lime, but it will be found that
it is the lime in the food that is
most serviceable, because it is in q
form that can be better digested and
assimilated than carbonate of lime,
says the American Fancier.
Clover Is also rich in lime; and
when a mess of cut clover and bran
is given the fowls they will need NO
oyster shells or other mineral mat
ter as a source from which to draw
the supply of lime for the eggs. Do
not forget that in summer. however,
the use of all kinds OF foods should
be used with Judgment. If the hens
have free range give no food at all
as long as they are laying, but if
they begin to fall off, let bran be the
leading ingredient of the food al
lowed. In winter the bran and clover
are even more essential, as the fowls
cannot then secure green food on the
range

Those who stick to the old method
of setting hens, and there are many
thousands who do, have learned val
liable lessons from the incubator,
says an exchange. First: They have
learned to choose eggs of uniform
size and of perfect shape. with sound
shells. AS incubator chickens do not
have lice. they have learned, second
ly, to dust thoroughly their hens be-
fore setting, and two or three times
, during the period of incubation.
Thirdly: They have learned to use
clean nest boxes and clean bedding.
They confine the hens to coops and
take great pains to place proper food
and water before them. Fourthly:
Many test the eggs under hens. fol-
lowing the example of the machine
men, and after testing three sittings.

infertile eggs, place the live eggs un-

into his bag. left directions for the gig
to bring 1t after him, and then started
to walk to the station.
Long before he reached London his
better self regainsd the ascendancy,
and bitterly he rued the wrong he had
done his brother and the mess he had
made of things. Pride forbade him to
go back and apologize as he ought.
Not a penny OF that cursed money
would he touch He would Leave Eng
land and carve out an Independent
fortune for himself
F. But at first he must see Marcia and
find out If she too were among the
things he had that day lost.
Fortunately he found her at home"
and alone. It was the first time they
had met since his fathers death. and a.
she rose and came forward with out
stretched hands to Welcome him she
said
II knew you would come to me drst
upon your return"
Her words and her manner fell like
balm on his storm-tossed and angry
spirit. and something like a sob had
to be gulped down before he could
speak, and even then hts eyes were
suspiciously moist.
YES" he said, leading her to q
seat, ''and even now I am come to
say good-by. I am leaving England"
he continued in answer to the mute
and appealing inquiry in her eyes.
Leaving England" she replied tn
deep contralto tones; "and why!"
ITO make my fortune" he answered
as jauntily as he could.
But surely" she began, when he
took the words out of her mouth.
''Oh. yes, Sir Arthur has done the
handsome thing SO far as money Is
concerned, but we've had a beastly
row, and can't touch penny. So
I'm going away"
"A quarrel with Sir Arthur-going
away!" she repeated DULY, with dilated
eyes.
He nodded. But it was all my fault;
I acted like a cad. I was mad with
doubt and uncertainty. Arthur be-
haved like Dysart-
ordered me off the premises, just as I'd
have done if he had checked me. I've
only myself to thank" he concluded
gloomily.
Richard was very, very young, or
he would have known that one of the
surest ways to a woman's heart is self
depreciation. especially when that
woman is in love with a man. Because
then she has the satisfaction of prov
ing, among other things, that her idol
is not made of clay /
For Rick it was a relief thus to
make confession, to look into her
troubled eyes, their depths stirred for
him. as he felt, and to divine that she
at least would not be Indifferent to his /
going.
Marcia laid her cool palm on his hot |
hand, and unthinkingly left it there.

BUILDING COLONIES.
Timely Advice for BeekeepeFs Who
Are DESTROYS of Obtaining q
Good Crop of Honey.

We want to build all our colonies OF
bees up strong, for those that are
strong in numbers are the only ones
we can count on to store good crop
of surplus. One of the greatest draw
backs to successful bee keeping is that
there are SO many weak colonies on
hand at the beginning of the honey
flow that it takes them through the
short honey harvest to become strong
enough to store honey. Each and
every hive should be overfowing with
bees ut the beginning of the principal
honey harvest, for when they are thus
very populous they can be depended
upon to do good work, if the season is
good.
Too many colonies run short of pro-
vision during spring when they are
building up, and the result is that they
are crippled in force, for they cannot
rear brood without plenty of food in
the hive or have daily access to a flow
of honey. Feeding is the only meth
.od that will bring them up to standard
requirements, hence they should be
literally fed.
Weak colonies may be brought up
strong very rapidly by giving them
some brood from the stronger ones,
but we must exercise care in this or
we will cripple the strongest ones and
be no better off than before. Draw
only on extremely strong colonies to
strengthen weak ones. If we have col
onies that are in danger of swarming
before the honey season is properly on,
we can draw from them and thus check
them from swarming.
1t is always in order to save frames
of honey over from one season TO an
other for the purpose of supplying
the bees with honey in spring. This
is the most simple and easiest way of
doing it, besides the most sure. Keep
off all surplus boxes during spring and
confine the bees to the brood cham
ber until near the approach of the
honey harvest.-A. H. Duff, in Farm
ers' Voice.
