A DOUBLE CROP.

The following from last week
Lyons Republican shows that there
is always something new introduc-
ed in farming as we'll as in other
branches of industry. In speaking
with Editor Conklin of the Repub-
lican, who has been visiting here
several days, he informs us that Mr..
McCabe, referred to in this article,
is a mighty good farmer and gen.
orally knows his business. If it is a
good thing in Lyons, why wouldn't t
it work in Barber?
Harry McCabe last fall sowed
us acres of wheat and turned 200
head of hogs in the field when ii
was large enough to pasture. He
left them there all through the sea-
son and did not even take them
out when he went into the field to
cut the wheat crop. Several times
he had to get off the header to
drive the hogs away from in front
Of the harvester. The wheat was
stacked in the field and the hogs
left in possession. Last week he
threshed the crop of wheat and the
yield was II bushels per acre. II
there IS any other country on earth
where the like can be done, we are
ready to hear of it.

GOOD SEASON IN MAINE.
Best Since Remarkable Record Made in
 1902.

Bangor, Me, Dec. 15.-The big hunt ing season in Maine, which closed at midnight to-day has been the best since the remarkable record made in 1902. The total of the game shipped through Bangor is 4,657 deer, 215 moose and 40 bears, an increase of 423 deer over the shipments of 1904, while the number of moose is the same as in 1904.
 Hard hunting conditions have pre- vailed during practically the whole of the season. The license law for non resident hunters passed last year has been successful beyond expectations. It is estimated that more than 1,7OO h- censes were sold this season, netting revenue of nearly $3O,OOO for the fur therance of game protection in the state.
 There have been fewer fatal hunting accidents this year tha min 1904. Seven fatal shootings have taken place.

 The large auditorium in Hendrie hall was filled to capacity last even- ing by the audience that assembled to hear Secretary of the Treasury Shaw speak under the auspices of the Yale Law School Political club.

 President Hadley introduced Mir. Shaw, who opened his address with an historical. review of the political history of the United States from the pre-RevoItionaryt period, also the com nIereial and industrial development of the country. After detailing the pro- cess of the development of constitu- tional government and the develop nlent of the two leading schools of political thought, MT. Shaw traced the operation of these political principles in the government to the close of the Civil war. He then discussed, the in- dustrial development of the union, the operations of the protective tariff sys- tenn, which built up g. great number of industries, but failed to benefit ship ping industries, He then reviewed the history of the tendency toward a cen tralized federal government, referring to the demand for federal supervision of corporations, in the course of which review, MT. Shaw said: "The old state sovereignty party has now become the nose pronounced advocate of enlarged federal Jurisdiction and supervision The people of the United States are be- coming Hamiltonians very rapidly"
 After cursory review of the causes that led to active interest by the Unit ed States in Cuban affairs eliminating in the war with Spain, MT. Shaw dis cussed briefly the troubles in China five years ago, when the United States

 DEMANDS OF PRINTERS

 OF FEAR.

Issue Statement Declaring the Closed
 Shop and Eight-HOur Day Demanded
 by the Typographical Union Cannot
 and Will Not be Granted-Have Men
 Ready to Take Places of the Strikers
 To be Paid Full Union Scale.
 New York, Dec. Reimbursement that preparations to handle big prin- 4ers' strike have been completed by the employing printers of New York was made to-day by the Typothetae of this city. The eight-hour workday which the International union decreed shall 20 into effect on January 1, l9O6' is de- elared to be the cause for issuing this statement. which is in part as follows:
 .sThe closed shop and the eight-hour day demanded by Typographical union, No. 6, cannot and will not be granted.
 'aThe members of the Typothetae are prepared to install competent non-un-, ion machine operators and other print ers in their various composing rooms These printers have been obtained by a canvass of the various parts Of the Tinted States, and also by the gradu- ates of the schools for machine oper- ators in New York city, Philadelphia Chicago, Kansas City, Omaha and else where.
 ''The publishers of the leading maga- zines of the country have completed most of their magazines for two or three months ahead in anticipation of the strike, and will therefore be sub jected to little or no inconvenience. Not only are the publishers supporting ; us in our. stand, but the manufactur- CTS throughout the country are actively cooperating with us.
 .eThere will be no lockout in the printing trades. Competent men enter ing our employ after January next will be paid full wages according to the union scale, whether they are union men or not"
 Chicago, Dec. 15.-Action was taken to-day both by the Chicago Typothetae and the International Typographical union looking toward an extension aft CT January i of the printers strike, which has been in progress since Sep tenber.
 At a meeting of the Chicago Typothe; tae a. conference with 700 independent employing printers was called for to- morrow, when the independents will be asked to join the Typothetae in the struggle against the eight-hour day by abrogating their present eight-hour contracts and informing their 1,70O union men they will be obliged to work nine hours a day after January i.
 The International Typographical union sent out circulars to the officers of the international organizations whose members work in the printing trades requesting them to join the printers intheir fight for the eight-hour day after January 1. The calling of sympathetic strikes is urged as the best means of aiding the printers.

After hours of patient effort on the part of Patrolmen Lippineott and Mat thew Powers the men responsible for the accident which resulted in the death of Thomas Cannon on Congress avenue early last evening, were placed in cua- tody. The men are Michael E. Hawey, of 93 Putnam street; Thomas Maher and James o'Brten. They were taken to the central station, where they were. questioned. At first they denied all knowledge of the affair, but after being put through the third degree by Detect- i've Dunlap, O'Brien and Havey accused Maher of driving the team which ran down Cannon. It was also learned that Havey was riding with Maher, while o'Brten and another man, as yet un- known, were in the other team. The teams were hired of Liveryman Hall, of this city, and the men went out with the intention of racing. Maher and perhaps ak three will probably be held on charge of nanslaughter.

TIGER DEBATERs WIN.
Defeat Harvard Men on Discussion of
 Football.

Cambridge, Mass, Dec. 15.-Prince- ton defeated Harvard in annual debate at Sanders theater tonight. The New Jersey men supported the affirmative of the question, Resolved, That intercol- legiate football in America is detri- ment rather than benefit.
 The members of the victorious team the k. M. McEwen, '06, of Amsterdam, N. Y; Paul Mechanism, 'O6, of Morn ing Sun. Iawo, and T. s. Clark, '0S, of Cortland, N. Y. The Harvard team consisted of G. J. Hirsch, 'O7, of New York city; Allan Fox, Detroit, Mich. and W. M. Shohl, '0S, of Cincinnati, o. The judges were Governor John Me- Lane of New Hampshire; Justice John T. Blodgett, of the Rhode Island su- preme court, and Robert W. Woods of Boston.
 Governor McLane, in announcing the decision of the judges, said that Princeton. had won by good, straightforward presentation of the subject" Harvard's case, he said, was we'll cmoposed, but rested more on sympathy than on fact.
 Princeton's contentious were that the game of football as played to-day de- mands sacrifice of physique, morals and time, and the speakers supported their arguments by examples and sta- tistics.
 Harvard attempted rather unsuccess- fully to refute these points and in ad- dition claimed that the game of football has three great benefits, that it creates youth, trains players in efficiency and fosters college loyalty.
