81 ~ ynrmer Glover Fed Flock Day
ay for Six Weeks.
vno cv,u morning Farmer Glover
stood In the. rear Of the barn, fork In
hand, looking out over the fields. Snow
storm had followed snowstorm, until
the stone walls were 80 covered that
the farm seemed like great field, with
here and there a small grove to break
the monotony. The cattle had been
fed and each animal was munching
contentedly at its pile of hay in the
sunshine, scattering chaff over the
snowy barnyard.
Suddenly, from the light woods near
the barn, came startled "Bob-white!'
Immediately there was an answering
call from the woods across the fields,
and then another and another, and
soon flock Of about twenty quail
alighted cautiously on the ground, two
or three rods from where Mr.. Glover
stood, and began picking up the seeds
from the hay which the cattle had
strewn over the snow. They scratched
about like flock Of hens, and appar-
emily quite as much at home, and
chirped away while they worked, after
the fashion Of tree sparrows in the
weeds down by the brook.
Farmer Glover was careful not to
brighten his woodland guests, and the
next morning he put out wheat for
them and threw handfuls of chaf in
the hay which the cattle had left. The
flock returned again and again, until
feeding the Quails has become as much
part Of the days routine as looking
after the hens and turkeys. One cold
morning after they had eaten, the
kind-hearted farmer found the whole
flock huddled together under the hay,
apparently enjoying the warmth.
Strange to say, they never come for
their food when it SHOWS or rains
When they have breakfasted, unless
frightened, they usually walk away to
their favorite haunts in the grove
across the fields. They never alight
on the trees, but occasionally perch on
the rail fence. Once or twice, when
no one was in sight, they came near
the house.
For six weeks the Quails enjoyed
Farmer Glover's bounty. When spring
opens their kind-hearted protector
meets them only in the fields and
woods; but whenever bob-white's mu-
steal call comes over the summer
meadows it brings pleasant memories

She Feared for Her Freight.

Old Mrs. Mercer was not used to
railway travelling. jamie always did
the household errands In town. But
now that jamie was laid up there was
no help for it, and she herself must
take her weekly ingathering Of eggs
and get the necessary stores in ex-
change.
She boarded the train at last in
some trepidation. All the other pas
sengers looked placid enough, and the
way the conductor went about his
business was truly reassuring- for
all the world as If he was on dry
land" she silently marveled, glancing
fearfully from time to time at the
whirling trees and whisking fences
outside the window. The basket of
eggs on her knee, gripped tightly with
both hands, was quite forgotten.
"You don't think there's going to be
a collision to-day, CONDUCTOR she ask
ed, as he stopped at her seat
why, no, madam. What makes
You ask such a question:"
well, you see, I'm taking eggs to
town with me, and II they was to get
broke I'd have to 60 short on my
stores."-Youth's Companion.

WRIGHT WOULD NOT CONFESS.


says He Was Hanged -Four Tnss 70
Mako Him Admit Murder.
A. A. Wright, a federal prisoner
charged with murder, brought to pris-
on there from Hobart recently, ac-
cording to Guthrie %. To- special to
the Kansas City Journal, says he has
been hanged four times for the crime
Of which he Ia accused. His story OF
the methods used to make him confess
and Of the narrow escapes he has had
since his arrest are interesting.
He was arrested on Nov. il. The
terrible death Of Slaterley, the man he
Is accused of numbering, caused such
a feeling In Hobart that mob gath
cred that evening and prepared to
take him from the county jail and
lynch him. The officers, In the mean
time, had learned of the intended
lynching and spirited Wright to Ana
darko, where he was kept for three
days. He was then taken back to
Hobart for his preliminary hearing.
Efforts were made to make him con-
fess to the murder by the deputy sher-
III and jail officials. The evidence
against him was purely circumstantial
and Wright declared his innocence.
The preliminary hearing lasted three
days and one night Wright says he
was taken from jail by the officers, a
moose placed about his neck, the rope
thrown over a telephone pole and he
was told he was about to be hanged
and that the only thing that would
save him would be a confession.
When he refused to confess he says
he was swung into the air and that
this was repeated four times. When
he was lowered the last time, Wright
says he was unconscious and the off,
GERS became frightened and took him
back into the Jail.
Wright had been picking cotton near
Hobart, and, according to his state
ment, bought team Of horses and a
wagon from Slaterley at his farm
house six miles from Hobart on Nov. 8.
On Sunday, Nov. Is, he said, the bill
Of sale was made out. Slaterley's
body was discovered in the mountains
Nov. 18 He had been shot, his head
was crushed and the body was buried
under a pile of stones. Slaterley and
Wright had been seen driving together
toward the Indian reservation about
the time Slaterley was killed. Slater
ley was a bachelor.
1t has been decided the murder must
have been committed on the govern
ment reservation, and, therefore, the
case must be tried in the federal
court Wright is typical Arkansan.
He is tall raw-boned and sandy whis-
kered. He says he bought the team
from Slaterley for SITS, and after the
bill of sale was made out never saw
him again. He denies all Of the cir
cumstances by which the officers are
trying to prove hts guilt.

.MUTINY OF RUSSIAN SAILORS
Eight Thousand Sailors Break From Their Barracks

Fire to the Admiralty Buildings.
SOLDIERS REFUSED TO FIRE ON SAILORS

The body of infantry and the rioting
sailors met in the vicinity of naval
headquarters. The officer in charge
of the soldiers gave the order to fire.
Every man in the squad raised his rifle
and fred into the air. Immediately the
men were ordered back to the barracks
and placed under arrest, but they re-
sisted their superiors and escaped.
Little is known as to the result of
this occurrence but 1t is rumored that
number of soldiers were shot down
in their tracks and that several officers
lost their lives.
A second detachment of infantry had
meanwhile been ordered out to take
the place of their riotous comrades
and subdue the sailors who were
wrecking everything in their path.
Again the two bodies met, this time
in the area of the headquarters build
ing. The officer commanding the in
tantry shouted to the sailors to halt
and throw away their weapons. In
response the sailors jeered and began
to throw stones at the windows OF the
, Headquarters building. Immediately
the command was given to fire. At
the word every rifle went up and a
volley crashed against the roofs of the
neighboring structures Amidst the
cheers of the salfors, the detachment
was marched back to the barracks and
General Voletsky ordered out the ia
nous Bielstocker regiment.
The men were marched out into the
barracks yard, where their colonel
harangued them, telling them that the
safety OF their country was at stake
and that it had become their solemn
duty to shoot down every man, no mat
ter what his calling, who disobeyed or
ders.
At this defiant shouts broke from a
hundred throats.

SALE OF OIL STOPPED.
The peaceful citizens which until
this afternoon seemed to take but lit

workers and the government, had a
rude awakening when the order was
issued strictly prohibiting the sale of
penalty for violations. The order
plainly meant that. given the proper
means the strikers would. in the opin-
ion of the authorities. set fire to the
city. That such view is entertain

the gravity of the situation, the dan
