Linden, June s.-(special )--Albert Richardson, who was convicted of the murder of Dr. Foscue at the spring term of Circuit Court. hung himself In his cell in the jail during the night.

He made a loop out of his blanket and stepped up in 1t. ad- 1usted the chain around his neck and then stepped out of the blanket.
 No one was in the cell with him and the other prisoners deny that they heard him or know anything of the hanging. It was complete job. His feet were about four inches from the cell floor.

A Suggestion.

Commenting upon the use Of seed
from a more southern source as a
cause Of failure with alfalfa in Yer
mont, Messrs. Hills and Jones of the
state experiment station say: "Unfor-
tunately there is no source sufficiently
far north to supply Vermont with ideal
seed. Montana and Minnesota have
each offered a little in years past, but
the supply is meager and hard to Sc
cure. This suggests the idea which
seems to offer promise of ultimate sue
cess in alfalfa culture in the state
namely, securing home grown seed. As
a rule, where alfalfa is sown some
plants soon winter kill. while others
persist for many years. Alfalfa has
been widely introduced in the state IN
admixture with red clover seed also,
so that patches of it are scattered in
many meadows. If plants so persist
ing can be allowed to seed and the seed
saved and planted it is believed a
harder race of alfalfa can be secured
than is now known"

Kennard McQuay, aged 1s years,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. John McQuay, of |
Ridgely, Md, was drowned in the
Choptank River, near Wilson's Mills
Saturday evening about o'clock. He,
with several other young men went to
the river to enjoy a swim and from
what can be learned, Yentured too far
from the shore, was seized with cramps
and before assistance could reach him
he was drowned. AS soon as the news
reached Ridgely of the sad occurrence
100 or more people went to the river to
lend hand in searching for the body,
which was not found until nearly ten
O'Clock that night. Young McQuay
was one of the most popular young
men of Ridgely. He was recognized
as one of the best ball players for his age
in the county, and on several occasions
played with the Ridgely champions.

In any we'll conducted manufacture
ing establishment the question of cost
of production is very closely studied
and no means are left untried to re-
duce the cost of production to the low
est possible limit. If machine will
do the work of man and besides do it
better, out goes the man no matter
what may be the cost of the machine,
and if a new machine will do the work
cheaper than the old one, out goes the
old one. We note that there is very
little of these things to be seen on our
farms, where the cost of producing
farm crops and meats is seldom ser
|, iously considered. In fact few farmers
really know what it costs to produce q
bushel of corn, a pound of butter,
J beef or pork. If at the end of the yeal
! they have little money which no one
has claim on they figure they are thai
, much ahead. More than this they can

aGe the professional trap shooters. He
prefers to send his boy to the woods,
the duck blind, the September stubbles
or the snowy thickets. with dog and
gun than leave him to the resources OF
idleness and the shady sports of down
town. And this sort of fond parent"
teaches the danger of carelessness and
the proper use of firearms.
Let us not Danish the dog and the
gun. Clean, healthy boys turn toward
both with an instinct to be cultivated
not suppressed. The primeval man
st!irs in the impulse that drives the boy
afield and whatever the primitive man
may have lacked of modern graces he
was healthy, clear minded and sincere.
Give the boy his dog and gun If he
wants them. Teach him to be kind to
the one and how to use the other. He
is better off haunting the waterways
or beating the thickets than playing
penny ante in hay NOW.

ed for passage in the next legislature.
This of course only proves that the
writer has been in conversation with
the citizens of Iowa opposed to It.
And yet these men sympathize with
the object and aim of the proposed
law l. e., enforcement. But it is class
legislation, and our people are opposed
to it. Rather does the idea of giving
the governor of the state power to re-
move officials that fail to enforce the
laws concerning the liquor traffic,
horse stealing or any other crime,
seems to strike the average voter as
the thing to do.
Rankin and his adherents are not
working along sentimental lines. There
is a lamentable lack of enforcing the
provisions of the mulct law in Iowa.
It's just as true Of the pharmacy law.
Rankin has the majority of our peo-
pie with him, on the need of something
being done to enforce our present laws
governing. the liquor traffic. Whole
communities in Iowa are engaged in
breaking the law in this way. Open
saloons are in operation In dry
counties. The only action on the part of
the authorities, is criminal arrest
each month, and a real fine OF a reg
ularly understood amount In cash. NO
petitions are circulated, no legal per-
omission given to run, there is
merely IAN understanding" that
as long as the saloon keeper backs
up to the captains office and pay their
fine every month the authorities Will
take no legal action. Here's where
governor like Folk with proper lega.
authority behind him could get In his
work. and sheriffs, mayors and county
attorneys would begin to sit up ans
notice things.
Again Mr. Rankin and his followers
are not exaggerating when they claim
that the non-observance of the law
concerning Sunday and holiday clos
ing is common and outrageous. It's
just as true of the sale of Intoxicating
liquors to common drunkards and
minors. The writer visits towns,
where on Saturday afternoons the
whole town Is drunk, speaking after
the manner of men," In such towns
frequently little country towns, boys
Of ten years of age and under loaf in
the saloon as much as at home and as
welcome as in the railroad depot. In
such towns, free lunches, music,
tables in the rooms. screens in front
Of the windows. are common and un-
noticeable by the city officials. The
writer is told Of one town. where a
school boy of twelve tends bar for his
father, after school in the afternoon
and evening, and the other boys Of the
town flock there to keep him COM
pany. Oh, yes, Mr.. Rankin, we need
enforcement Of the liquor laws. but it
would seem you are not on the right
track to suit the majority This
statement is true Of temperance low
ing citizens.

+ LOOKER.ON IN IOWA !

Tana, Nov. 25.-The use OF blood
hounds to successfully detect criminals
received a decided setback here the
other day. Dan Leary was murdered
near the railroad track about $3.50 O.
m. Soon after a bloodhound was
brought to the scene of the tragedy and
the promptly took the scent leading out
of town towards Montour. Finally he
stopped, and two men were found con-
cealed in a thicket near the road, who
We're arrested and brought to town.
Score one for the bloodhound and his
business. But within farty-eight hours
afterward resident of town and fell
low workman of Leary was arrested
and the statement is made at this writ
ing that he has confessed his connec-
ton with the affair, probably incrimin-
ating another resident Of Tama. All
of which goes to prove that blood
hounds can do track men, but not
always murderers or criminals.
There's quite ruction over in Mon
tour over a late postoffice deal. Citi-
zens of the town tell the writer that
when the question of the successor Of
Mrs. Beal was being agitated, q young
lady, present deputy of the office, had
115 names on her petition and the
lucky appointee, one of Montour's well
to do citizens, man well qualified
by age, experience and party fealty for
the office, only had eleven names on his
petition. And SO Congressman Cousins
has grief in store unless he can show,
which one man claims is a practice Of
the postofflce department, that when a
man and woman are petitioners for
the same postoffice at the same time,
the plum is always handed to the man.
Now the writer was never strong be-
lever in woman's rights, so called, but
if it is true, that the postoffice depart
ment has such rule in practice, writ
ten or unwritten, it is time twas abol-
ished. 1t don't go with Teddy's Square
