Wireless to Help.

CHICAGO, Oct. 11.-One of the
finest police headquarters buildings in
the country is to rise in the immediate
future on the land lately acquired by
the city at 599,551 State street, be-
tween Harmon place and Twelfth
street. Plans for a ten-story struct-
ure were begun today.
One of the most radical departures
to be added by the department at the
new building will be the use of wire
less telegraph system. This will be
operated from a station on the roof.
Sub-stations will be installed at police
stations throughout the city. 1t is
planned to flash messages to and fro
when cases arise that make moments
precious.

THEY PLAN BUTCHERY.
Montana Laws Would Appear to Need
Protective Clause Just Now.

BOHEMIAN, Mont, Oct. 11.-A novel
secret society in this city. 1t will be
held the last three days in October
and the first day in November. There
will be two sides, one captained by
George Whitney, a famous hunter in
Gallatin county, and the other by ].
M. Pratt, a crack shot The leaders
will be provided with rosters of the
order who can spare time for the hunt,
and will choose alternately from these
lists. 1t is believed that each side
will be able to muster about 100 to go
out for a part of or for the whole four
days. The game killed will count so
many points and the side scoring the
greater number of points, will be de-
clared the winner and will be treated
to a game supper the night of Nov. 2,
by the defeated hunters. Elk will
count 5000 points, bear 5000, noun
tain goat, 5000 deer 5000, grouse 500,
chickens 100, pheasants 10, rabbits 90,
trout so and white fish, 40.
The game must be delivered to the
judges before 10 o'clock the morning
of Nov. at a designated place, and
any received after that time will not
count. The losing side will take all
the game required for the supper from
that which they have killed. Prepara-
tons will be made to serve 800 guests
at the banquet Much interest is being
taken in the coming event.

Advices to the state department

COUNCILMAN BRIDGES SAYS
SANDS OF BUSHELS.
Evidence Of Prosperity On Every
Hand-Much Interest In EIec-
trio Road Through PaIouse.

Councilman Bridges returned yester-
day from a business trip to Colfax
and various up-country towns. Farm
ers of Whitman county who have not
yet threshed their grain are despond-
ent over the continued rains in that
section" Mr.. Bridges said this morn
ing. Men who are well acquainted
with the grain situation in that coun-
try estimate that nearly a million
bushels of Whitman county wheat is
still unthreshed as result of con-
tinued and heavy rains for the past
ten days. This does not apply to any
particular locality.
"All through the county 1 was told
that many farmers had not been able
to get their grain harvested before
the rains set in. The aggregate amount
of wheat remaining unthreshed is es-
timated at 10000 bushels. This esti-
mate may be found 70 be too large but

growth the past three years and the
same is true of Pullman and other
towns in Whitman county. Consider
able interest is being taken in the

lieve that the building of the big cleo
trio line will do wonders in developing
the Pa1ouse country. Agents of the

right of way and in several of the
towns en- route have secured depot
grounds. etc. Mr. Bridges said that

THE RAISING OF BEES.
F. M. Davis.

All colonies should be examined the
first spring day after pollen gathering
begins, to see that they are strong
in bees and honey. This should be
done by lifting them up and looking
between the bottom bars at the brood
frames. If they are heavy, and have
bees on the four frames or more, hey
are all right to set on a clean, dry
bottom board The reason why l
speak of dry bottom board is be.
cause it will be badly soiled by the
bees during the confinement in win
ter or rainy weather. The best way
to disinfect is to scrub them with
lye and let dry and they can be put
back again. If a colony gets weak,
but still has a vigorous queen, they
can be saved by placing frame OF
Matching bees with them and closing
the entrance all but one inch, and
place cloth or blanket over them to
keep them warm. The hive should
have all the sunshine it can get; pro-
tect from north wind, and if short
of stores give frame of honey, ii
it can be had. If not, fill the brood
frame with thin syrup made with
granulated sugar, and place by the
side of the brood and all will be well
in few days.
Have your colonies very strong to
commence with. About 10 a. m. some
nice wram day in May or June take
two brood frames with eggs and all
the adhering bees, put in a new hive
and place on old stand. Move the
old hive away about ten or fifteen
rods, put in more frames in both
hives; all the old bees will return to
the new hive and raise young queen
from the eggs given them. 1t will
take from ten to twenty-one days for
her to hatch out. In ten or fifteen
days more you will find her laying.

1t is all right TO experiment some
but it is better to confine such opera
tons into experimenting on how to
raise fifty bushels of wheat to the acre
every year rather than to try to make
some new plant grow on the ranch.
The new plant may prove worthless
in the end, even if it will grow, but
too much wheat will never be grown
again in the wheat belt. Some farm
ers, however, experiment too much
for their own good. Every new thing
advertised in seed catalogues finds
ready sale to experimenting farmers
and the business of introducing new
and wonderful plants has grown so
profitable that now enough novelties
are introduced every year to keep a
fellow poor buying the things.

The practice of throwing potato par
ings out on the manure pile is no
doubt more prevalent in town than
on the farm. Perhaps the potatoes
are scabby and by and by some fellow
comes along and hauls the manure
onto his potato patch The scab spores
are in the manure, and although he
may have treated his seed potatoes
for the scab and killed every vestige
of it on the seed, when the resultant
year small, scabby potatoes are some
crop shows scab he is very apt to
jump to the conclusion that the treat
ment is no good. In a good potato
times thrown out or buried in the
manure pile to get rid of them. If
they can not be cooked and fed to

This the emperor has learned from

well as the general terms acceptable to
Japan. These, it is said, include the
retention by Japan of Port Arthur, a
Japanese protectorate over Korea, and
an indemnity.
From high official the Associated

An attache of a Russian EN- bassy in
Europe is quoted. expressing the belief
theat kuropatkin' recent defeat will
force Russia to ask for peace.
Briefly these were the reports cur
rent in the diplomatic corps yesterday

nation official Washington believes
that Russia and Japan are on the verge
of peace. If it be tue that the second
Pacific squadron has been recalled,
