STATE AND GENERAL NEWS.

The trial of Nan Patterson, the show
girl, indicted for the murder of "Cea-
sar" Young, the gambler, ended in a
mistrial, the jury standing to 3 in fa-
vor of acquittal. The case was rather
sensational and has attracted wide at
tracted wide attention. This is the sec
ond time the case has come to trial and
it is now thought that the Defendant
will be admitted to bail IN nominal
sum and the case eventually nolle-
pressed.
The treatment of cancer by Roentgen
rays rather than by the knife was dis
cussed at the recent session of the In
ternational Congress at Berlin called to
celebrate the tenth anniversary of the
discovery of the rays. Prof. Lassar,
who is regarded as an authority, de-
clared that he had only three failures in
this cure for cancer in some hundreds
he had treated. He said the ray is eff
fective where growth is not deep
seated, because the healing effect pen
trated only fifth of an inch. The ray
seemed ineffective for larger growths.

Learn the Alphabet from the Curbstone
Farmer.

4 curbstone farmer sat on the steps,
BY his side stood farmer Brown
Catching the words of the curbstone
farmer
Dig deep and sub-soil your ground. +"
Every curbstone farmer
Feels like he knows it all,
Goes and sits on his favored seat
Hailing, the farmers in the Spring and
1t is amusing to hear him tell
Just what he knows about making corn
Knows how to plant and when to sell;
Likes to sit around and blow his horn
Many of these curbstone fellows
Never planted row of corn,
Only blow off their mouths and not the
bellows
Poor excuse for farmers, let them be-
gone,
Queer how they give so much good ad-
vice,
Rattle it right down it sounds very
nice,
Sitting on the curb stone like herd of
- billy goats
Telling experienced farmers how to
raise corn and oats,
U will generally find two or three to-
Venture to their posts in all kind of
weather.
When the weather is pleasant and the
ground will do to plow
X pect them at ther posts to tell the
farmers how
Young calves should be fed when taken
from the cow
Jealous in good advice but no sweat on
their brow.
