Seeks to Intervene in the HiIl-
 Hartman Fight
COLLISION IS CHARGED
Claim is Made That Fight Between Hill and Hartman Over Distri- button of Northern Securi-
 ties Is Mock Contest.
BY PATTERSON sTEALEY.

Washington February 19.-(Special.)- In behalf of the Continental Securities company, which owns or controls as trustee 25cO shares of the stock of the Northern Securities company, James Hamilton Lewis will tomorrow file a pe- tition in the supreme court asking per mission to intervene and file brief in the fight between E. H. Hartman and J. J. Hill, over the manner of the dis tribution of the property of the Northern Securities company.
 The petition will say that the fight be- tween Hill and Hartman is mock con- test. that the questions presented to the court are moot questions, and that no matter which way the court decides, the stockholders other than Hill and Hartman will suffer loss. Further 1t VII be charged that Hill and Hartman have a perfect understanding and that the only purpose of the su-. is to enable Hill and Hartman to divest themselves of liability for an accounting of stock holders who entrusted their stock to them.
 Case on Call Today
 The case In which Hill and Hartman are parties is on call for tomorrow on d writ of certiorari from the circuit court of appeals. It will, however, be possible for the Continental Security company to file It's petition at the same time.
 The chief point which the Intervening party desires to make is that the stock holders interests are being altogether ignored and that for the court to pass only on the questions raised by Hill and Har- riman will be to assist them in carrying
 
 of which cannot be affected adversely to Hill and Hartman, no matter which way the court may decide. The Continental Security company will claim that the court should decide that Northern Secur ites company shall return the identical stock received in exchange for stock of the companies merged and not their pro portionate relative value, as proposed. to- gether with such extra value as these stocks may have had in the market be- tween the time of the delivery of stocks of the Great Northern company and the Northern Pacific and their redelivery to those who delivered them.
 Liability to be Returned.
 Such other value as the Northern Pa cihc and Great Northern stock may have had in the market is the liability which the intervenor will undertake to have the court declare shall be returned to the holders who surrendered them to the Northern Securities cmpany.
 The claim will be made that the persons who exchanged the stock of the constit- uent companies for the stock of the merg- ing corporation are entitled to recover the extra value the stocks had during the time the stock was held by the cor poration which the courts have held was illegal from the beginning
 The claim is made that extra value con- stitutes a liability of which Hill and Har- riman will be discharged If the court passes only upon these >questions.

Tuscumbia City Council Satisfied
 With Bell Company.

The Florence Herald of Saturday, says:
 The Tuscumbia City Council at their meeting on Monday night. turned down the application of John c. Montieth for a franchise for telephone exchange. The Southern Bell company is giving Tuscumbia splendid service as it is also in Florence and Sheffield and another exchange would be burden on the people
 The business men of the tri-cities have not given the projectors of the new sys- tenn any encouragement. and feel as long as they are given the best of ser vice by one line there is no need of in- creasing their expenses unnecessarily. The experience of all places wehere two different phone system have been tried. is that they are very unsatisfactory and expensive. and in fact become nuisance.

The Picturesque Rhine

very interesting picture to be present. ed in the new programme of Archie L. Shepard's moving pictures at the Jeffer- son theatre Tuesday and Wednesday. with matinees each day, is that of the waterfalls of the river Rhine. The beau ty of the Rhine has too often been told in verse and story to need repeating. but of all its beauties the most ideal is that of the waterfalls, those gracefully and rapidly flowing descents that have given birth to poetry and song, and have been the foundation of many legends in the folklore of the "Vaterland."

my remedy Tree to try without cost
 or deposit or promise to pay
 I could not make this offer-a full dol- lars worth free-if mine were an ordi- nary kidney remedy It is not. It treats not the kidneys themselves. but the nerves that control them. The cause of kidney trouble Hes always in these nerves. The only way to cure kidney trouble Is by strengthening and vitaliz- ing and restoring these kidney nerves. That is exactly what my remedy-Dr. Shoop's Restorative-does. Therefore I can make this offer with the certain Knowledge that every kidney sufferer who makes this trial will be helped.
 When 1 say nerves" do not mean the ordinary nerves of feeling, thought, action. l mean the automatic nerves, which night and day, unguided and un- seen, control and actuate and operate every vital process of life These are the master nerves. The kidneys are their slaves Your mind cannot control them. Your will cannot sway them. Yet when they are strong, you are well when they are not, you weaken and die.
 l have written a book on the Kidneys which will be sent when you write This book explains fully and clearly how these tiny. tender Inside" nerves control not only the kidneys but each of the other vital organs.

But to those who have not heard, or hearing. may have delayed or doubted.

vote their high-priced land to that
use. Potatoes, sugar beets and
alfalfa there afford crops the year
ly value of which per acre would
nearly pay for an acre of farming
land in many of the older farming
regions of the east.
There are many rich valleys in
the West still to be developed by
irrigation and more of lesser fer
tility where the land may be OBJ
tanned at lower cost, as in the case
of the San Luis Valley, which may
be as we'll adapted to the produc-
ton of peas or other fattening
crops, upon which good portion
of the lambs from the ranges close
at hand may be fattened for the
eastern market.
The process of pea-feeding
lambs is the least expensive of
any plan yet known. The crop is
easily produced and the lambs do
the harvesting of the crop, at the
same time fertilizing the soil splen-
didly for the coming season.
The plan is a relatively new
one, as was the fattening of lambs
on alfalfa and corn less than a
dozen years ago. 1t is held by
many feeders to have a great ad-
vantage in economy over the latter
method of feeding, and, although
hardly as excellent condition for
market is shown by the lambs that
have the wider range of the pea
fields in feeding, they have shown
condition here this year that has
been highly satisfactory to the big
buyers, many having sold on this
market at or above $3.50, while
the extreme top price for lambs
thus far this year has stood SITS.
These prices certainly should
serve as an incentive for western
men to engage in the business ON
an increased scale.

In view of the fact that many
Nevada ranchers are becoming in
terested in the raising of stock
peas for feed, the following dis
patch from Denver may be of
interest to them:
This winter Colorado is feeding
nearly I,ooo,o 900 sheep and lambs.
This is fast becoming All important
live stock industry, and is popular
in the San Luis valley, in southern
Colorado, and the Fort Collins
district in the northern part of the
State, says the American Wool
and Cotton reporter.
The San Luis is tableland val
ley 1900 feet in altitude, situated
between two ranges of the Rocky
mountains approximately so miles
wide and 100 miles long, and sur
rounded by some of the highest
peaks in the Rockies. The Mexi-
cans have developed very hardy
variety of peas that seems to do
remarkably we'll in this altitude,
growing vines which run along
the ground for distance of 10 to
IA feet. These vines are loaded
with pods bearing the nutritious
pea.
A few years ago some progress
sive ranchers brought few lambs
from New Mexico to feed on a
field of peas. The lambs did we'll,
netting the ranchmen good
profit on the investment. This
experiment induced others to try
it and in this way a new industry
came into the valley. Last year
one ranchman and his two sons
fed $4,000 lambs at a profit of
$2S,oo This year these three
ranchmen are feeding 10000 lambs.
Nearly all the San Luis ranchmen

they turn in their sheep to do the

Startling But True.

People the world over were horri-
fed on learning of the burning of a
Chicago theater in which nearly six
hundred people lost their lives, yet
more than five times this number or
over 5000 people died from pneumo-
mia in Chicago during the same year,
with scarcely q passing notice.
Every one OF these cases of pneumo-
mia resulted from a cold and could
have been prevented by the timely
use OF Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. A great many who have rea-
son to fear pneumonia have warded
it off by the prompt use of this rem
edy. The following is an instance
of this sort. "Too much cannot be
said in favor of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, and especially for colds

COW PEAS FOR SHEEP.
They Grow We'll in Mountain Sections and
Great Fattening Food.

grain with the peas, but believing
that it increased the cost of fat
tening without improving the
quantity or quality of the mutton,
they have ceased to use grain, fat
tening entirely on peas.
Ranchmen purchase, therefore,
just as many peas as they have
lambs to feed. They estimate
from to IS lambs can be fattened
from an acre These lambs are
purchased largely in the southern
part of the valley or in New Mexi-
co. This year a few were pur-
chased in Idaho and eastern Ore
gon.
This method of preparing lambs
for the market saves the expense
of harvesting and marketing the
pea crop, enriching the field for
next years crop and lessons the
expense of feeding the sheep.
One man in this way can take
care of a flock of several lambs.
Goodall's Farmer, a leading
stock and market publication of
Chicago, in commenting on this
says:
"Chicago has been handling a
considerable number of pea-fed
lambs from the San Luis Valley of
Colorado. This is practically the
home of the industry in the Uni
ted States thus far, but there is no
telling to what extent this profit
able method of fattening lambs in
the west may be extended during
the next FIVE years.
The character of the soil in
various irrigated regions naturally
shows great variety. Some
sections, such as that occupied by
Fort Collins, Greely, Loveland and
other thriving cities on the
east slope of the Rockies north of
Denver, are so richly productive
