Fish for Poultry.

In preparing fish for fowls we pre-

quantities in connection with grain
and vegetables; but for young chicks
It is advisable to boil before feeding
and simply open the fish down the

chicks the rest Of the task. This food
should be given to layers sparingly,

MISTAKES IN PICTURES.

A well meaning artist of the eighteenth century painted a picture in which Abraham was depicted as about to sacrifice Isaac with a blum derbuss The actual event which the artist had striven to depict antedated the use of firearms by about 5000 years. There are also pictures of the Israelites crossing the Red sea, the men armed with muSkets and other weapons of modern manufacture. In the matter of costume the early paint CTS found a stumbling block. In the Edinburgh National gallery is a pie ture in which PharOah's daughter and her ladies are arrayed in the long waisted bodices and hooped skirts so common in Eupope in the sixteenth century.
 In another picture of the same date representing Joseph and his kin dred in Egypt" which is hung in the national collection in London, there is no trace of the distinctive features of Egyptian architecture about the build ings; they are all Italian in type. In a painting by Paolo Vcr0nesc, in the same gallery, "The Family of Darius at the Feet of Alexander After the Battle of Issus,'' the women wear pointed waists and enormously extend ed skirts although the incident occur red in the wear 339 B. C. The artist was a Venetian, and he drew the Ven etian costume of his own period, 152S- S8.
 Raphael. like so many others, drew his Madonnas, his saints, and his mar tyrs from Italian models and clothed them in contemporary Italian cos tunes, giving the figures as a back ground the scenery with which he was 90 familiar.

 An ignorant coun:ryman. who saw the sea for the first time, was much impressed with the effect of the blue water. and asked Q fisherman if he could tell him who the owner was, su he would like to buy a gallon to take home to his wife. The fisherman re piled, promptly:

 Lands sakes!" exclaimed the rustic. "Could you sell me a gallon for fifty cents?"
 Sure" said the fisherman, and he disappeared, returning in a few min utes with a jar of water for which he received the countryman's fifty cents.
 The latter departed with his pUr- chase. Returning later in the day, af- ter the tide had gone out, he gazed in silent wonder at the water, which had receded far from the beach.

twenty seven of the conference minis ters who served in the union army dur ing the civil war. Hedding church, seating two thousand people, was crowded when Gen. O. O. Howard, one of the last surviving corps commanders of the war gave his famous lecture on the Battle Of Gettysburg. The lecture was of absorbing interest, and was cheered to the echo. Hundreds of war veterans were present. Gen. Howard, although seventy-five years of age, speaks with power and eloquence. Among his attentive hearers was Rev. Dr., Mcknight, still rector of Trinity Episcopal church in this city who is in his eighty fourth year Tn his intro duction Gen. Howard spoke of the fed eral defeats which preceded Gettys- burg. He said that some blamed him and some blamed Gen. Hooker for our defeat at Chancellcrville, but he be- lieved that Stonewall Jackson was more to blame than either of them.

COCHISE COON Y.
 The old Girard mine at Tombstone, is making regular weekly shipments of ore, and the mine is looking well throughout the workings. Particularly is this so in the stopes, so that increas- ed shipments can be made from now on. Some new ore stopes have recently been uncovered on the 500 foot level which exceed in richness ores. taken from the old stopes. The working force of the mine has been very materially increased fin the past few days ana it is expected that more men will be add ed as work and developments progress.
 The Dos Cabezas Gold Mining com pany, at D2s Cabezas, is doing re- markedly in washing placer gold from the gravel in the gulches. Recent rains deposited much new ground from the hill sides above and from this good sized nuggets were obtained. The work is under the supervision of J. McMillan, and while in Wilcox last week he ex- hibited number of big nuggets as a result Of recent work.
 The Collard brothers have opened a new property in the Warren district which shows a ledge of galena ore twenty-two feet wide which carries one ounce in gold and thirty per cent in lead. Tn another claim in the same group they have a vein of ore worth $75 to the ton.

STILL ADDING WEALTH.

Just one more sample of the way
in which gamblers add wealth to the
community:
An employe of the wooden mills
last Saturday received a check for
S27 for his weeks work, and before
reaching home dropped into a saloon
on Court street where a game was
running in the back room. and decid-
ed to double his check before paying
his grocery bill and other expenses
of the week.
A friend" had told him that this
was an easy game TO beat.
He placed his check on the high
card, and needless to say, lost, with
out even getting chew of tobacco
from his weeks wages" as a friend
expressed it who witnessed the pro-
ceeding.
The man who owns the building
who runs the game and who enticed
this ignorant fellow into the game
are all equally guilty of robbing thi:
family of its substance. That is the
plain truth, although it may be harsh

per cent of the ship built. There are
also eight armored and three pro-

power in the world since Great Brit
ain with her vast colonial dependen-

never afford to concentrate at any
given point so many ships as the
United States can. The American
vessels are all practically modern and
efficient, while many of the British
vessels are old and unreliable.

MORALS OF SECULAR PRESS.

At a time when so many well-in-
tentioned critics accuse the newspa-
pers Of catering to the worst passions
of humanity i'm order TO make money,
it is interesting to find in a religious
publication testimony OF the high eth
ical standard of the secular press.
The Christian Register of Boston,
publishes without comment a letter
from John Haynes Holmes, of New
Dorchester, Mass, praislng the stand
taken by the daily newspapers on
moral issues. He says that If there
is any question under discussion which
calls for a clear, unwavering distinc-
ton between right and wrong. for a
sturdy championship of righteousness
and a yirile condemnation of sin, for
high ethical tone and a white-hot
moral enthusiasm. he has been taught
by a long series of depressing expert
ences that he will find these qualities
not in the pages of the religious pa
pers, as might nationally be expected
but rather in the columns of the so.
called secular press.
Daily newspapers are not priggish
and make no pretenslons to superior
virtue. Primarily they are not teach
ers of morals and do not profess tC
be. That their ethical tone Is higher
than that of the religious press is {
merit the dailies themselves woulC
be the last to claim.
Yet when a matter of morals come
before the public the secular press Il
likely to be found in accord with th'
best sentiment of the community. Th
fierce reformers who see in the news
paper only one of the powers of dark
ness may read Mr.. Holmes word

ling. the city needs the improvement,
the financial condition of the city

nothing will justify a delay. If the

THE COMING SEA FIGHT.

The attention of civilized nations is
Russian and Japanese fleets. Leading
naval strategists consider that bat
der Gleaves, of the United States
navy, gives some facts which are time
Iy and interesting.
He says that the Baltic squadron
when it sailed from Russia was COM
posed of 81 ships of all classes, but
the real fighting strength of the
force was confined 70 seven battle
ships of from 10000 to 1900 tons,
two armored cruisers of $500 and
$500 tons, six protected cruisers and
= dozen destroyers The remainder
of the fleet was made up of auxiliary
cruisers, transports, repair ships, col
Hers and one hospital ship.
The fleet was divided into two di-
visions, the smaller vessels going
through the Mediterranean, and the
heavy ships around Cape of Good
Hope; they joined at Mauritius where
Rojestvensky devoted several weeks
to organizing them as far as possible
into a homogeneous force, drilling
them at night and day with such per-
severance that on the eve of his de-
parture for the China sea he was able
to wire to the czar the significant and
Iaconic message, II am ready"
The material of his fleet includes
four Of the newest and finest battle
ships in the world. They are the Bo-
rodina, Orel, Imperator, Alexander
III. and the Kniaz Suvaloff, of 1856
tons and speed of IS knots.
At the beginning of the war the
japanese effective sea force was com
posed of six first-class battleships
one second-class battleship- the CHR
Yen, captured from the Chinese; eight
modern armored cruisers, 16 othei
cruisers, and l9 destroyers.
From Admiral Togo's dispatch aftel
the fall Of Port Arthur, it was learn
ed that the japanese had lost on'
battleship, one coast-defense ship
three protected cruisers and one gun
boat so It is probable that the flee
which is intended to meet the Rus
SLAMS will be practically as 1t was a
the beginning of the war, with the ex
eeption of the Hatsuse and possibl
the Yashima, which was sunk by
mine and may or may not have bee
repaired.
Therefore, numerically, the Rus
slams are somewhat stronger, but
must be remembered that their flee
is not so homogeneous as that of tn
Japanese.
It is therefore assumed that in tn
coming fight Togo will have at h
disposal five (omitting the daubtfr
Hatsuse and Yashima) battleship
namely: The Asak and Mikasa,
