Cervante. ana HIS Bride.

A biographer Of Cervantes, the au-
thor Of "Don Quixote," says: with
high ideals in his mind and but few
pieces in his wallet, he married, on
Dec. IL, 1884, with Donna Catalina de
Palacios Salazar y Vozmediano. The
tenth of his fortune, which Cervantes
settled upon his wife, amounted to 100
ducats, while an inventory Of the
brides effects include several planta-
tions Of young vines in the district Of
Esquivias, small town Of New CAS-
tile; six bushels Of meal and one Of
wheat, some articles of household fur
niture, two linen and three cotton
sheets, cushion and two pillows stuff
ed with wool; one good blanket and
one worn, tables, chairs, pots and pans,
a brazier, crater, several jars, sacred
images In alabaster and silver gilt,
crucif1x, two little images of the baby
Jesus, four beehives, forty-five hens"

two engines would appear to the un-
initiated to be nearly total loss. If
this were true, this one item would
amount to many thousand dollars.
On the contrary, all expert figures
that $1,000 will put the engines back
in commission. This expert states
that all the expensive parts of the en-
gines. though slightly disarranged,
can be reassembled. Only one car
was totally smashed, and the trucks
of this car can be used again. In
this car were a lot of sewing machines
and miscellaneous freight. Some of
the machines were damaged, but the
freight loss is very small. 1t is
thought that $4,000 is a liberal esti-
mate on the property loss. Anyone
looking at the wreck Saturday morn
ing would place the figures at many
times that amount. The f1agman, ON
whom the blame seems to rest, has
left for new fields If he did not
know any better, he is perhaps en-
titled to more pity than blame. One
of the remarkable things in connec-
tiOn with the wreck was the ride the
head end brakeman took. He was on
the third car from the engine and
never left it. Besides the shock of
the collision this car plowed along
through two feet of sand, and was a
very unsteady vehicle. The brake
man clung to the running board of
the car until it stopped, and escaped
with a few scratches. John Broad
foot, who also had an exciting ride,
is nearly as good as new. He was
quite lame and sore for several days
after, but his bruises were of a tenn
porary character. Views of the wreck
will be found on the 4th page.

afternoon. He was eating his dinner

he knew what was about to happen.

Gull the Herd.

A very great failing among dairy
men is the disposition so widely seen
to refuse to Gull out the herd, says
Hoard's Dairyman. Somehow every
farmer feels as if he could not afford
to reduce his herd by selling off the
Indifferent ones. The refuse corn and
vegetables will soon come in play, and
with them and the fall grass the poor
COW can be put in good market condi-
ton for the butcher. We have known
men to sell off half of their herd and
make more net profit on the remaining
half than they did with the whole
herd

walked out to the stairs and looked
over the banisters down into the dark
ness, and after a minute he returned
to the bed with his teeth chattering and
said:
It's SO dark couldn't see a burglar
down there if there was gang of
dozen in the house. l think I'll yell
for the police out of the window"
And have all the neighbors say you
are coward! Mr.. Bowser, you must
go down. You must do some shooting
Our first burglar must not be allowed
to escape"
'I'll-I'll go down, but it's only the
w-wind. Don't you want to come, too,
and see me shoot him? That is, I'll
hold him up while you talk to him. You
can talk better than I can"

that you are afraid to go downstairs

that it is better to have two along

him and the other take down his dying
words"
He led the way by the light of a
match, and Mrs. Bowser followed. All
was still until they reached the foot of
the stairs. Then there was rubbing
against the front door, and Mr.. Bowser
would surely have fired the pistol if he
hadn't forgotten to cock it. He was
pulling at the trigger with all his might
when Mrs. Bowser advanced to the
glass and looked through into the open
vestibule. After one glance she began
to laugh, and Mr.. Bowser advanced to
her side. Next moment he dropped the
firearm and threw open the door. The
stray goat met him face to face. The
creature was cold and lonesome and
wanted company.
Now, by the living 1ingow shouted
Mr.. Bowser as brave as q lion all at
once.
Then he stepped forth In undress and
caught that old goat by the horns and
twisted his nose around to the back of
bis neck. Then he raised him up and
swung him around and called him
names, and as the poor goat bleated his
fears he was given fling that sent
him against the yard fence and made

METHODS OF MILKING.

Best Results Are Obtained by Keep
Ing the Flow Steady.
For some reason the paragraphs
which used to go the rounds of the ag-
ricultural papers claiming that rapid
milking was the best method of milk
Ing seem to have been dropped out
of sight, says American Cultiyator.
Possibly those who used to copy them
have learned how to milk a COW or
have given place to others who have
learned that doing a thing well is bet
ter than doing it quickly.
Keeping up steady flow of milk
from the beginning to the end of the
process helps to keep up the supply,
but the strong grasp that tries to force
out stream of milk larger than the
Orifice in the teat will allow to run
easily is painful to the COW and may
produce an inflammation of the udder
that will result in an attack of garget
Then also the rapid mixer in his haste
will fail to get all the milk from the
udder, and that last milk, or stripping,
as it is called, has a much larger per-
centage of butter fat than the milk
that is first drawn
The last pint taken by a careful
mixer has often tested from IA to 20
per cent of butter fat or about half as
much as good cream, and this when the
average of the entire milking has not
exceeded 4 per cent or may have fall
en- below that. To lose this excep-
toionally rich product is not only to re-
duce the butter value of the entire
milking, but it has tendency to cause
the cow to dry off earlier than she
should, as that milk, or almost cream,
much be absorbed again into the sys-
tenn.
The mixer should not stop to talk
while milking, but should not hurry
by exerting too much strength at his
work or by stopping as soon as he
does not get as large a stream as he
did when he first began In this re-
spect the European custom of having
the milking done by women is better
than ours, as they exert less strength
and have more patience.

into the barn last summer and drink
deeply from the basins. When it is hot
they don't like to wander far in the
pasture for water, and without plenty
OF water down goes the milk flow.

Decision in Northern Securities Case
Has Little Effect. &

Decision in Northern Securities Case
Has Little Effect. &
New York, March 6.-Wall street
maintained to-day the more conserva-
tive attitude towards speculation which
was assumed last week as the result
of the sharp reactions in prices, and
the manifest disposition of holders to
unload on the higher flights which
prices took before the reaction. The
handing down of decision by the SUI
preme court on the question of the in
junction against the distribution of
Northern Securities assets stirred the
market, but even that potent subject
was of moderate effect compared with
the frenzied movements which have
followed the suggestions and expecta-
tons of a decision in the past. Some
part of the response was due probably
to the doubt and confusion over the
scope of the decline, due to conflicting
reports on the subject, and the with
holding of the opinion accompanying
the decision. The receipt of the news
was unexpected and may have found
plans for action on it unprepared.
There was some natural scepticism also
as to whether the definitive result had
been reached clearing away the posi-
bilities of further litigation. There was
some revival of activity again in the
stocks Immediately affected when the
definite character of the decision be-
came better understood. But this sub
ject has so often and so powerfully
figured as a factor in lifting the mar
ket that the question was suggested,
to the speculative mind whether its
influence was not already discounted.
The Union Pacific contention against
the receipt of portions of both the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
stocks in place of the Northern Pacific
holdings, first contributed to the mer-
ger. was on the ground that this plan
would represent a large discrepancy in
the valuation of assets as compared
with its original holdings.
The great enhancement in market
valuations which has since occurred
has gone far to settle this contention.
The action of the market reflected the

exhausted. The market started off with
a considerable show of strength, but
the food of offerings on the advance
