THINK MURDERER WAS INSANE
Jurors Rejected in Suit of Belle Chris
tianson for SISTERS Insurance.

Thirteen jurors on the regular panel
drawn for the case of Belle Christian
son against the Pacific Mutual Life In
surance company and Travellers Insur-
ance company, before Judge Brooks to-
day stated positively that they believed
that F. B. Richardson, who killed Lima
Christianson and himself ION Dec. 10,
1904, was insane.
The case is brought to recover on the
insurance policies carried by Miss Chris
tianson, the amount involved in the
two cases being $4,000. The case against
the Pacific Mutual started today.
A similar case against the United
States Casualty company for $4,000 was
compromised, the company paying half.

There are few men identified with the national game who

greatest outfelders In the game, and his work in the right garden
has been marked with sensationalism. At the bat he is al
ways found among the first three or four sluggers throughout

valuable as coming from the angle of vision of a great fielder

SYSTEMATIC WALKING.
Five Thousand Miles Walked by Easy
Daily Trips During One
Year.

On January /, 1913, conceived the
idea of walking 5000 miles before the
expiration of the year, writes w. A.
Green, in Outing. The object was not
TO achieve any unusual feat, nor to &C
complish any conspicuous perform
ance The underlying motive was,
rather, to insure plan by which reg
ular and systematic exercise could be
obtained
To travel this distance, il was neces-
sary to cover an average of IA miles
a day. Now, IA miles for days walk
is we'll within the compass Of the or
binary man. But an occasional walk
of this length is one thing; the sus-
tanned effort, day after day throughout
the year. is another.
Let me answer the question by say
ing that at the end of the year / had
completed a distance on foot of 5,205
miles, or a daily average of 14A miles.
The stipulated 5000 miles were fin
ished on December 16, but an addi-
tional 200 miles were covered in order
that each of the 50 weeks Of the year
du average OIslduCt tIdN-
eled of 100 miles
/ set out upon my enterprise with
the knowledge that ii was incumbent
upon me to maintain a daily average
of IA miles, and made II rule, when
practicable, OF keeping above the aver
age, so as to have something in hand
to meet the emergencies which were
almost certain to arise. That they
did arise was shown by the fact that
for Is days in the year, owing TO sick
ness, lameness and rainy-day travel
ing no walking whatever could be
INDUCED in. The inability to utilize
these Is days was equal to a loss of
over 200 miles. II will, therefore, be
seen that, under the circumstances
named, IL was imperative on many oc-
casions TO exceed the distance of IA
miles a day in order to preserve the
average.
At the beginning OF my walk my
weight was 1872 pounds in street
clothes, while at the end of II my
weight was rs pounds. This loss of
IA pounds was in every way accept
able. The avoirdupois lost was only
redundant weight, and felt, as re-
suit, more active, stronger and hard
er. In the matter Of health, felt
] decidedly better than ! had for sew.

another, the grader will give him a
greater per cent of higher grades,
and every patron should receive pay
according to grade.
One set of hands packing the whole
car load, the pack will be more uni
form than it could possibly be if pack
ed by several different packers in sep
arate places. The expense of pack
ing should be borne by the growers
in proportion TO the amount of peach
es packed. A commission can be
saved on packages by buying in car
lots by the manager, and the grower
should have this saving.
Select for your manager or agent
someone who has ability and honesty
and who will not "whitewash' his
reports nor refuse to show his books.
Now, having selected your man, pay
him a good, reasonable compensation.
If he does your business on commits
sion, haye thorough understanding
as to what services and expenses 1T
shall include. If you secure the right
kind of a man, he will not use your
goods 10 punish some competitor or TO
secure purchasers easily by undersell-
ing the market. Stand by your agent
so long as he does his duty by you.
Do not charge him with crookedness
because some competitor tells you he
is doing a double deal. The other
fellow may pay above the market on
purpose 70 break your arrangements.
If he wants peaches he will take yours
and pay for them here. II he wants
TO handle here for what he can get
ont of it, the unlocked for may hap
pen. Do not let great promises from
Chicago houses, asking for consign-
ments, warp your judgment. To mass
your fruit and sell together is step
in the right direction, Time and ex-
perience will dictate needed changes
and improved methods.
Do not pick your peaches till fully
matured for two reasons, one is, you
are cutting yourself short in bushels,
for peaches increase in size very
rapidly the last few days before begin
ming 70 soften, the other is, you are
robbing the customer of the quality
and flavor 10 which he is entitled.
Do not let them get too ripe, for if
they begin to soften before picking
they will not hold up for distant
markets.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1905-08-11
Grade Your Teaches.

This is a year above all others TO
grade your peaches. There is an I'M
usually heavy crop. To consign to
Chicago means glutted market and
no profit if not an actual loss. Keep
the Chicago market good and every
other market in the Northwest is
thereby made better. Mass your
peaches in car lots, ice the car and
place it in a market of consumption
instead of a market of reshipment.
By so doing you will save the differ
ence between local and through
freight, carriage and one commission,
not mentioning the possible or per-
haps probable stealings, all of which
come ont of the grower.
AS TO the price, the same peaches
in the same packages will bring more
if graded, from the fact that the
grader gives them standard sizes,
which the purchaser understands,
and he knows what he is buying
Number two graded will usually COM
mand better price than number one
and number two mixed but ungraded.
Have a central packing house, so
that all of one brand shall be packed
by the same set of hands under one
management and the whole car be
uniform. This fact increases its value
and commands higher price. The
seller can guarantee the goods. The
purchaser will always pay more for
an article he feels a confidence in
than for one having degree of un-
certainty in it. The central packing
house is entirely fair and just TO every
patron. Bring your peaches right
from the tree and weigh them in. The
grader does the sizing with an exact
ness beyond the ability of man. If
one patron has better peaches than

THE RECORD EXPLOSION.
Tremendous Spectacle Witnessed in
Blowing Up of shipload of
Explosives.

The worlds record for submarine eX-
plosions has just been made at Alex
andria. Some months ago a consign-
ment Of explosives arrived at Alexan-
dria on account of Messrs. Nobel d Co.,
Of Glasgow. 1t was dispatched to Cairo
by gyassehs native sailing boats), but
unfortunately one of these vessels,
which had 1872 tons of dynamite on
board, got into a collision and was
wrecked. The explosives were salved
from the water and were brought back
to Aboukir, as that was the only safe
place where they could be deposited.
However, the dynamite had become a
danger TO the public safety, owing 10
the contact with the water having gen
Grated certain gases, which might at
any moment act on the dynamite and
explode it. So, as a lawsuit was being
brought in the mixed tribunal, the per-
mission of that court was obtained for
the destruction of the explosives.
Harold Harris, F. c. s., chemist to the
Messrs. Nobel, came out specially
from Glasgow TO superintend the opera
tiens, and he was assisted by Mr..
Ferdinand Muquier, chemical expert TO
the mixed tribunal. The explosives
were conveyed from Aboukir fort in
boats about a quarter of a mile out in
the bay, off Nelson's Island. and there
sunk in Is feet of water. Electric wires
were let down and connected the ex-
plosives with battery in the fort. The
bay was kept clear of all shipping.
The sight was one never 10 be for
gotten. The sea was perfectly calm.
All Of sudden without any visible
warning, tire was tremendous up
beaval of IL water, the sea became a
churning mass FOR a great distance
around and a waterspout Of gigantic
height rose toward the sky. The sun.
shining on, or rather through. this mass
gave 1t a superb glistening appearance
and produced a wonderful effect. The
rising Of the water lasted nearly two
minutes. 1t was estimated by the
technical spectator that the waterspout
attained 1000 feet in height, while its
base was 200 feet in diameter. These
details, coupled with the fact that the
explosives consisted of 61a tons OF
zelignite and ten tons Of blasting gela-
tin, which, containing as II does, 80 per
cent Of nitroglycerin, Is one Of the
most powerful explosives, MAZE this ex-
plosion q record as being one OF the
greatest submarine explosions that have
ever taken place since explosives were
invented.
There was no danger to household
property. A vibration like that of an
earthquake was felt In Alexandria and
the houses were shaken, but that was
all. Thousands OF fish were killed in
the bay, much to the satisfaction Of the
local fishermen, who benefited by H.
The explosion will entail fresh sound
ing Of Aboukir bay and the ADJOINING
sea.
