Bernstein ls Shot Down.

As Bernstein and his companion
were leaving the scene two colored
men seized the bartender and a scuffle
for the possession of the revolver be-
gan.
Special Policeman Tinsley, colored
came running up. Seeing the colored
policeman approaching Bernstein
swung the revolver toward him, and
according to Tinsley, discharged the
weapon twice. Tinsley returned the
fire, shooting four bullets into Bern
STEMS body. Bernstein fell uncon
scious and a crowd that had gathered
made toward Tinsley and the wound
ed man. With the assistance of an
other negro Tinsley picked Bernstein
up and ran into a nearby saloon. Tin.
sley stood in the doorway with drawn
revolver. The crowd, which was com
geance for the killing of Gray, and
Tinsley, seeing that he, unassisted
would not be able to keep them back
shut and barred the door.
The crowd, which had now grown
to the proportions of mob, moved on
the building. Finding all the doors
locked and being unable to force them
open, sticks and other missiles were
thrown at the building and every win
dow and fixture in the place was shat
tered and demolished. While the dis
turbance was at its height three
negroes, who had gained entrance into
the saloon, dragged Tinsley into the
basement, and, armed with clubs
stood ready to defend him. In the
meantime two patrol wagons and an
ambulance filled with policemen were
hurried to the scene. It was only at
ter a desperate fight. in which several
of the rioters were badly bruised by
the policemen's clubs, that the mob
was forced back from the saloon
shouting for Bernstein. The police
told them that Bernstein had been
killed, and to make good the remark
Bernstein, who was unconscious, was
placed on shutter and brought to
the door of the saloon. This had a
1uieting effect on the crowd and they
soon dispersed. At the hospital Bern
stein was soon revived.

The Modern Sleeves.

And now some feminine genius has
seen the possibilities of present day
sleeves. She has produced an innoya-
ton which will appeal to every woman
with ideas. This Is nothing less than
an adjustable sleeve. The bodice Is
made sleeveless, finished on the Shout
der with band or a frlll, under which
the separate sleeve, which Is full
length, is fastened. 1t need not be or
the gown stuff, but must blend In color.
Any light, fiimsy fabric Is accounted
dressy, and some bodices have two or
three sets of different style sleeves
made to wear with them. AS every
body knows the sleeves make the dress,

How MIX Helms.

Milk as feed when combined with
other feeds, has very much larger
feeding value than When fed by itself.
1t also increases the value of the
other feed. Just how this is, the
scientists have not yet worked out.
Thus an experiment was made In feed
Ing 100 pounds of skim milk to pigs
weighing about 125 pounds. That skim
milk, when fed alone, made five pounds
Of pork. Then 100 pounds of corn was
fed alone, and that made ten pounds
of pork. That would indicate that 100
pounds of corn would make fifteen
pounds of pork. But when the two
were fed together the experlmenters
were surprised to lind that they made
eighteen pounds OF pork, or three
pounds more than could be explained.
Thus 1t is evident that milk in bal
ancing food makes it possible for the
animal to use it to better advantage
than when the grain is used alone.

value of skim MIX For Pies.

The experiment station at Cornell
University, New York, has recently
made a test on the fedelng of skim
milk to growing pigs with view of
determining its value for pork produc-
ton.
IL shows that skim milk when fed
with ration OF grain was worth to
tue feeder about three per cent. more
than using it in cheesemaking.
The pigs We're fed in addition to the
skim milk, pen No. l, cOrnmeal only;
pen No. 2, cornmeal and gluten feed
mixed half and half; pen No. 8, corn
meal and wheat middlipgs half and
half by weight. The pigs were fed
twice day, morning and evening. The
grain was put dry in the feeding trough
and the milk poured upon 1t. The pigs
were given all they would drink up
clean.
In the test 1t was shown that milk
was worth fifteen cents per 100 pounds
fed TO hogs from weaving up to d
weight of l25 pounds.
1t was shown also that clear corn
meal is perfectly satisfactory as 6
single grain feed, when fed in connec
ton with skim milk. II was alst
shown that weanling pigs in close quar-
ters during the cold weather can b'
made to gain pound live weight pei
day for three months.
Skim milk can be fed economically
at three pounds OF milk for one pounC
or grain. Skim milk makes balancel
and increases the value OF the grain al
well as the milk upon combining.

In preparing food for horses it is
important that grain should be properly
cleaned. In case in which, after a
severe drouth, ii was unavoidable to
feed oats containing tares and other
leguminous seeds, symptoms of lathy-
rus poisoning We're noticed in a number
Of horses. The attacks were frequent
ly severe and sometimes fatal. When
the oats We're properly cleaned this
trouble entirely ceased.
Cleaning further increases the dens-
ity of the oats by removing mineral
matter and dust, which may sometimes
induce. attacks of Intestinal obstruc-
tions, collie, etc. No advantage appears
to be gained by grinding the grain, as
horses, excepting old ones, prefer to
crush 1t themselves.

horseman has chopped the coarse fod-
ders, using a ration of equal parts Of
hay and straw, and this practice has

though the local eleven was out

were found eagerly watching every
play and were always found in every

The length of halves was thirty and
twenty-five minutes First blood was
won by the visitors after about fifteen
minutes OF play and before time was
called the locals pushed Ben Garrett
over for n touchdown, the score at the
end of the first half being 3 to g.
Reynolds, the locals star half, was in

by Thomas, who played n good game
and grabbing the bah in n tumble and

the score stood 1 to 8 in favor of the

the ball in Humphrey territory.
The game throughout was filled
with surprises. Reynolds Undcrbcrg,
Ben Garrett, Wilbergcr, Prather and
Thomas proved the principal factors
for the locals, while the team work
was excellent at all times.
Every inch Of ground was bitterly
contested in the deciding game OF the
season. The two previous games be-
tween these elevens resulted in no
score contests. Although the crowd
was small, those who were there were
fired with enthusiasm and every play
found the loyal ones shouting for their
favoritos. The success of the locals
is no doubt due to the untiring efforts
