not because it might commend itself

Defense Takes Exceptions.


AS soon as the sentence was pro-
nounced Attorney Dawley, of counsel
for Mrs. Chadwick, took exceptions to
the sentences upon each count, except
the first count. The defense intends to
allege that the court cannot impose
separate sentence for each count; that
the law applies to the general charge,
instead of each incident of a general
charge. The various counts of the in
dictment are considered by the de-
Tense to refer only to details of the
general offense. This point will also
be contested in the higher court as
will the other points Of the Chadwick
trial which resulted in her conviction.
The case will be contested to the linn

fore the United States court of appeals

Was Resigned to Her Fate.
The action of the court yesterday
finally closed the Chadwick case as far
as the Cleveland court is concerned,
unless the unexpected happens and the
higher court discharges the woman or
orders a new trial. Mrs: Chadwick
was not particularly affected By the ac-
ton of the court, as seemingly she had
resigned herself to any action that
might be taken. When she was told
that the motion for new trial had
been refused she merely nodded her
head. When seen Immediately after
sentence had been pronounced Mrs
Chadwick replied to question: "What
more can the world want to know
about me now" \
Crime for Which She Suffers.
Mrs. Chadwick was indicted by the
United States grand jury at a special
session ordered by Judge Francis j.
Wing, who has since his retirement
from the federal bench become her as
sociate counsel on the charges. Both
the president and cashier were jointly
indicted with the woman who bor-
rowed thousands of dollars of the

Queen Bees Worth 5000.

Just as there are valuable strains In
horses, cattle and other stock, so there
are varieties Of queen bees which are
worth many hundred times Their
weight in gold. The most valuable
strain is the Italian, and many Italian
bee farmers demand and receive with
out question prices ranging from $50
to $500 for a single queen bee of a
certain kind. Such bees are sem all
over the world. The owner of a bee
farm nea Ottawa, Canada, goes to
Europe annually and brings back with
him bees of an aggregate value of
thousands of dollars. He is enabled
through the agency of an Italian firm
to effect an insurance upon the most
valuable of his queens.
This bee farmer has many strange
experiences in connection with the as-
sistants he is obliged to engage OF
course all beekeepers must submit to
Il certain amount of singing. But ia
some cases the poison in the sting acts
directly upon the assistants and makes
them alarmingly i'll. Others are im-
n,une though stung hundreds Of
times. Bee farmers are often applied
to by persons suffering from rheuma-
tism who wish to place themselves in
the way of being stung. And, strange
as 1t may seem, the virus of the bee
sting does often act as a cure to per-
sons suffering from serious attacks Of

s,akinr the Cat UseruI.

Making the cat act as a plumbing
i~nc~octor was the ingenious feat of a
Ihidtadelphia woman. says the Record,
of that city. This oma had noticed
that one of the pipes connected with
the washstand in her bathroom leaked,
nd she wished to locate the leak pre-
clsely without tearing out any more
of the wall than was needful.
She shut her cat up in the room di-
rectly below the bathroom. and In the
basin Of the defective wash-stand she
poured a vial of the oil Of valerian.
Cats are excessively fond of the odor
Of valerian. After the cat had been
in the room a few minutes it began to
purr. Purring. it crossed the room. set
tied itself on the floor with its face
to one spot on the wall, and here its
mistress found it when she came into
the room, it's nose glued to the spot,
shifting and purring ecstatically.
The wall was opened at that point,
and there, sure enough, the leak was
found. The valerian had trickled
through at that point, 10 the delight
of the cat.

"Potatoes the Finest 1 Ever Saw"
Owing to the great amount of inter-
est that is being taken in Western
Canada, it is well to be informed Of
some Of the facts that are bringing
about the great emigration from por-
tons of the United States.
The Canadian government have au-
thorized agents at different points, and
the facts related in the following may
be c~orroborated on application. At the
same time they will be able to quote
you rates and give you certificates en-
titling you to low rates on the differ
ent lines Of railway. The following
letter, copied from the North Bend
Neb.) Eagle, is an unsolicited testimo-
NAL, and the experience Of Mr.. Austen
Is that Of hundreds of other Americans
who have made Canada their home
during the past seven or eight years.
Il presume some may be interested
to know how we have progressed this
year in the Canadian Northwest. We
hare no complaint to offer. We have
had a good year; crops were good and
we have had a delightful season. 1
threshed from my place $3.50 bushels
of grain. My oats made 65 bushels
per acre and weighed 42h pounds per
bushel. My wheat made 31h bushels
per acre and is No. 1 quality. My bar
ley made about 80 bushels Of good
quality. My crop Is a fair average Of
the crops in the Edmonton district.
"All crops were good here this sea-
son. Potatoes the finest I ever saw,
and all vegetables adapted to the eli.
mate. We have had a very fine fall,
but no exception to the rule, as the
fall season is, | think, the most pleas
ant of the year. We have had no snow
yet (Nov. %, and have been blowing
and working the land preparing for an
early seeding next spring. Last night
the mercury dropped lower than any
previous night this fall, and this morn.

before this, and that the people were

ton of time when this country will not
be looked upon as an iceberg, but a
country fit for the best of mankind to
