How To Win Premium. on Poultry.

J. I. Uric of Craftsbury, VT, was
ene of rhe largest exhibitors of poultry

Poultry keepers will doubtless be in

following letter from Uric q Sawyer,
of which firm the above named is a
member, will partly explain: Pages

of the men went out to investigate. We found bull moose up to his belly in the snow, and so tuekered that he could hardly hold his head up.
 Some of the crew hustled into the hovel and got ropes, and in less time than it takes to tell we had the moose lassoed and tied up In a sort of box stall that we rigged up. Talk about being jealous I never see nothing like the way the fellers in the other camp carried on when they heard about 1t. Wouldn't want a live moose down to their camp, they says, and even if they did they wouldn't take such a poor specimen of the family as we had captured.
 "The boys kept feeding the moose and it wasn't a little while before they got on pretty friendly terms with him. We finally built a sled on purpose for that moose, and made a rough harness out of buckskn, and after while we got him so he'd take a couple of us over the lake anywhere about as fast as we wanted to travel
 "All the time we had been n educatin' of our critter the men down to the other camp had been trying their darndest to get hold of a moose for themselves. It hurt 'em bad to think that our camp had anything to offer in the way of at traction that they didn't.
 About half the crew knocked off work and went into the woods @ hunting for a live moose. They didn't get one but be blessed If they didn't gaffie on to a full grown caribou In Just about the same way we got our moose.
 "They commenced the first thing, breaking that caribou to the harness.

Sport Lumbermen Had One Winter

 "There were two numbering crews up on Jo Merry that year, and I was the boss of one of the operations. The two camps were on the shore of the lake. about a mile and half or two miles from each other. and the two crews used to visit back and forth quite regular.
 Everything was friendly enough, but there was pretty strong rivalry be- tween the camps Both gangs allowed as how they could cut more timber and eat more beans than the other. I thought this was healthy, and sorter encouraged contests.

CALL IS MADE ON
 THE STOCKHOLDERS
CONDITION OF ENTERPRISE MA TIoNAL BANK IS FOUND TO BE VERY sAD-INvEsTleATIoN IS VERY SLOW.

Washington, Oct. 2S.--The comptroller of the currency stated today that he had not yet received any detailed report from Re ceiver Cunningham of the Enterprise Ma tional bank at Allegheny, nor from Judge Oldham, the representative of the comp troller's office, who has been at Pitts burg for several days. The labor of mak- ing a thorough examination and report will be very great, owing particularly to the suicide of the cashier of the bank, and the consequent difficulty of ascertain ing the condition of affairs
 Letters and messages from Receiver Cunningham, however, justify the comp troller in making the statement that the failure will be a very bad one, and will justify an assessment of one hundred per cent on the stockholders against their lia- bllity. and this assessment was made to- day.
 The comptrollers office has also been advised that Receiver Cunningham has today brought suit against M. Il. All drews of New Mexico for $o2O0O on notes signed by or endorsed by him. A most vigorous effort will be made to collect this money, as well as all other amounts due to the insolvent bank
 Judge Oldham reports to the comptroller that Cashier T.

MAKING DIAMONDS.
Process Is Simple, But the Result Is
 Microscopic.

From the London Mall.
 Sir William Crookes in the course of A lecture on "Diamonds' before the BTU ish association at Kimberly the other day explained to the assembled company how the precious gems might De mahu- factured. ,, ,,. =
 "The first necessity" he said, 'is to select pure iron free from sulphur' siii- con, phosphort, etc., and to pack IL III a carbon crucble with pure charcoai rom sugar" The crucble must then be put into the body of the electric furnace. After a few minutes heating to tenn nerature above 4.v0 degrees c., lem perature at which the iron melts ike wax and volatilizes in clouds, the current is stopped and the dazzling, hery crueipie is plunged beneth the surface or cold water, where it is held till II slnks peiow a red heat.
 "The sudden cooling soidifes the outer layer of iron and holds the inner molten mass in a tight grip. The expansion of the inner liquid on solldifying produces an enormous pressure, ana under the stress of this pressure the dissolved car bon separates out in transparent IorInS- minutely microscopic, 1t is true-al the same Veritable diamonds with crystalline form an appearance, color, haroness ana action on light the same as the natural gen."
 Attention was called to the suggestion that ne diamond is gift from heaven conveyed to earth in meteoric showers. According to this hypothesis, said the lecturer, holes were bored in the earth by the impact monstrous meteors, the larger masses boring the holes, while the smaller masses, disintergrating In their fall. disturbed diamonds broadcast. "Bizarre as such theory is,' observed the great scientist, "I am bound to say there are many circumstances which show that the notion of the heavens raining diamonds is not impossible.' In proof of this he showed the audience photographs of diamonds he had extracted from a meteorite.
 The lecture abounded in interesting pas sages. Here is one:
 "It Is not uncommon for diamond to explode soon after 1t reaches the sur- face. Some have been known to burst in the pockets of the miners or when held | in the warm hand, and the loss is the greater because large stones are more liable to explode or fly in pieces than small ones.
 "yaluables stones have been destroyed in this way, and 1t Is whispered that cunning dealers are not averse to all lowing responsible client to handle or carry in their warm pockets large crys- tas fresh from the mine By way of safeguard against explosion some dealers imbed large diamonds in raw potato to insure safe transit to England"
 By the end of 1904 ten tons of diamonds had come from the Kimberley mines valued at e60,O0O,00O This mass of gems could be accommodated in box five feet square and six feet high.
 According to the lecturer, one of the most remarkable gems in existence is phosphorescing diamond in the possession of Mrs. Kunz of New York, which will phosphoresce in the dark for some mn- utes after being exposed to a small pocket electric light and if rubbed on piece of cloth leaves long streak of phos- phorescence.

 We had measured off two-mile course, and you orter seen that moose and caribou leg it. Our moose won by about a length. but the race was mighty close one.
