Special Dispatch to The Call.

VICTORIA. B. c., Aug 10.-George D.
Collins Of San Francisco, who is fighting
extradition on a charge of perjury, Is be-
lieved by the police and lawyers engaged
In the case to be feigning illness in
hopeless endeagor to postpone the hour
when he will be handed over to the Cali
fornia authorities To a Call represen-
tative Attorney Higgins said tonight:
Il shall tomorrow insist that Collins
be examined by two physicians as to his
condition. We are confident he is sham
ming illness. The fact of the matter is
he has played his last card and lost.
He has exhausted all the arts of the
professional juggler in legal teChnicali-
ties and has, so TO speak, got TO the end
of his rope. He is afraid to take the
stand and give evidence. Lest he should
try to escape from the police the guards
have been doubled. Judge Lampman will
surely commit him. If he applies for
habeas corpus before a Judge of the
Supreme Court he can hardly hope for
success, as two Supreme Court Judges
have already turned him down About
the only thing left open to him is to,
apply to the full court. But I think he
has completely exhausted himself"
When the case was resumed this morn
ing by Judge Lampman, his counsel II.
d. Helmcken, produced a certificate from
DR.. r. L. Trash, well known local

GETS LIGHT FROM LOUISIANA.
Bowling Green Establishes Long
Distance Transmission.

LOUISIANA, Mo, Dec. 12 The only
long-distance transmission electric
light line in the Middle West is to-
night In operation between here and
Bowling Green. The distance is
twelve miles.
Louisiana is the metropolis Of Pike
county, and has an electric light plant
owned by a private corporation, which
was purposely constructed Of sufficient
capacity to supply the entire county.
Bowling Green is the county seat, and
a city Of 2. 500 population. 1t has here
tofore had an electric light plant Of
Its own, but it had come to be In poor
repair, and it was cheaper to build and
equip this transmission line than 1t
was either to repair the old plant at
Bowling Green or build new one.
1t cost about 5000 to build and
equip this line, which Is lowned by a
separate corporation, but the-greatest
economy VIII be in the operation
Bowling Green uses about 1000 lights,
and, Of course, it would be necessary
to spend almost as much for operation
Of small plant to supply such city
as it would to operate the larger plant
here, which supplies both cities with
capacity to spare.
1t Is planned to extend this line on
to Cnrryville, eight miles further, and
perhaps on then to Vandalia, a total
distance Of 80 miles. 1t is also In con-
temptation to build another line to
Clarksville, 10 miles away, and supply
several fine homes, which have recent
ly been built by st. Louis persons rs
country residences, en- route.

(WeeKly Agricultural letter.
All over this Western country a good
share Of country butter is put up in
packages, which either have no shape
or have silly one. At the country
fairs and institute exhibits there are
placed on exhibit butter In such form.
The ordinary print, round when
viewed from the top, and fat when
viewed from the side, with raised
form IF flowers or fruits on top, is the
kind mean. These have been very
popular, but the quicker they go out
OF fashion the better. WhyP Because
this is an awkward form to cut from,
the piece obtained being mis-shapen
for side dish or plate and the butter
left Immediately loses its beauty and
becomes a mere mass.
If 1t be sold it is next to impossible
to pack 1t even In cold weather so
that the thin bottom edge will not
get bruised by Its neighbor or fiat
tened against the side Of the box. Then
IL more than one layer be put into
the box there must be shelf for each
Of the upper layer will mash the
beauty all out OF these pretty pine
apples and wreaths and other irrele-
want things that have been stamped
on the butter top.
The rectangular one-pound print is
easier to make, cuts well and the more
firmly they are packed In the shipping
box the better they carry. Then, too,
they may be wrapped in thin paper
and kept clean, but not easily so with
the old-fashioned round print or the
ugly plug-Ilke rolls that are still trying
to force their way to the tables. There
is every reason why the brick form
should be made and none why the
round form should continue.
