Poultry Pointers

Whenever warm spell comes In
winter it can benoticed taat as soon
as the weather becomes cold again
the supply falls off. This shows
that warmth is factor in the pro-
duction of eggs. Ills not necessary
10 have summer weather. 1t is when
the hens escape the extreme cold of
winter that they begin to lay. If
the changes of weather make diff
ference in laying, then warm poul-
try house should also have an in
influence. When poultry must re-
sort TO the tree-tops, and be ex-
posed to the snow, rain, hail and
wind, they can only keep alive, be-
ing unable to assist the farmer by
pronuciug eggs. If you want eggs
in winter, you must provide good
warm house for them, as we'll as
provide pure, nourishing food.

What Will The Harvest Be

As we. pass along the street we
notice young boys putting cigar
cites and hear them swearing like
young Arabs. We even noticed
lately little girl not more than five
years old putting away on an old
cigar stub she had picked up some
where and acting as though she
enioyed it. Boys of tender years
gather in the alleys and on the side
streets and indulge in all kinds OF
filthy and profane language. Young
girls unattended by older persons
romp around the glass plant and
other places till very late at night.
Parents seem not to think of the
welfare of tn eir children or have
lost all control of them. No par
ent in these enlightened days, but
should know the evils that must re-
suit from such habits in early life.
What kind Of man can be expected
to spring from the boy who spends
a large part of his boyhood with
evil associates, contracting and
practicing vicious habits3
The young girl who is allowed to
run wild about the city, in any com
pany she may chance to meet, is
suffering blight in her future
womanhood that years of patient
training cannot efface.
The coming generation must
suffer in character and morality for
the want of training these children
are receiving. Such conduct uncor-
rected must but lead to harvest of
sin and shame. 1t is much easier
to train up child In the path of
rectitude than to reform a hardened
sinner. Look after the young and
the old will take care of themselves.

lock canal. Such canal could be
built two or three years quicker
than the sea-level type, could be
utilized earlier, and would cost
much less money.
These are considerations of I'M
portance. but they are not decisive.
The canal is intended for all time,
or as long as vessels sail on water.
Therefore, we want the best which
can be had. "On all sides it is con,
coded that the sea.level type would
have many important advantages.
1t would allow quicker transit of
ships. The liability to obstruction
from any source would be far less
than in the canal with lifts. The
cost of operation would be much
less. After it got to work the sea
level canal would, in a few years.
pay its extra cost of construction by
the saving in operating expenses
and by the shortening of the time of
passage Thought it. In war it would
be far easier to defend lock canal,
for the destruction of any of the
locks would make the canal useless
for the time.
President and commission are
anxious to get the canal at work at
the earliest possible moment. This
is the chief reason why they favor a
lock system. If the sea-level type
could be built as quickly it would
be favored by them as we'll as by |
everybody. Nobody would want
the lock type of Waterway if it cost
as much as the other IN money or
time. Time and money, however.
are not the factors which will deter
mine the peoples choice. They
want a canal which will meet all the
demands of the future in broadening
and deepening, and in facilitating
the transit of vessels. These ele-
ments, addedt to the greater cheapness
in operation, are decisive in favor Of
the sea level canal. If a sea-level
canal is to be built, new legisla ion
must be had, but is safe to say that
Congress will readily enact it. This
is subject which will get exhaus-
tive discussion In the press before
the matter has chance to come up
in Congress.-Globe Democrat.

smoked opium.
Wilson told how he had met Croker
in the barroom of the Coates House,
one Of the leading hotels in the city
where the negro was employed as por-
ter. Croker, Wilson said, had asked
him on Thursday evening where he
could have a little fun" Wilson had
told him of an opium den in the north
end and offered to conduct him to the
place after 8 o'clock, when he would be
of duty at the hotel. Croker waited
until that time. and then went with the
negro to Con Cronin's saloon at Fourth
street on Broadway. There Wilson
suggested that if Croker had any
money he had better give it to the bar
tender for safekeeping before they
started out. Croker gave the bartender
twenty dollars, saying it was all he had
except some change, and the bartender
placed the money in an envelope in the
safe.

Wilson said that they had reached

EAEEER OF EHE DE1p M5w

KANSAS CITY, May 1S.-The Coro-
ner's verdict in the case of Herbert v.
Croker Of New York, who was found
dead on a Santa Fe train near New
ton, Kans., is that he came to his
death while between Kansas City and
Newton. Kans., from the effects of mar
cote poison taken into his system at
Kansas City before boarding said train,
by means and manner unknown to the
jury"
Chief Of Police Hayes of Kansas City
says that Cookers death was due 10
overindulgence in whisky and opium.
Chief Hayes says there is little to in
dictate that the New York man was
robbed and none to show that he was
drugged except by himself.
The body Of Croker is at Newton
awaiting the arrival Of his brother
Richard from New York, who is ex-
pected to reach Newton Sunday night.
The undertaken who embaImed the
BODY says the young man appeared TO
have been in fine physical condition.
The two Chinese who conducted the
opium joint and the negro porter,
Charles Wilson, who took Croker TO
the place. are in jail, but they are not
charged with any offense in connection
with Croker's death. The Chinese will
be prosecuted for keeping an opium
Joint, and Wilson's testimony win be
used against them. The Chinese say
Croker had smoked opium before.
A number of persons, despite the
opinion Of Chief Hayes, are convinced
that Herbert Croker was drugged and
robbed at Kansas City. The clothing
he wore evidently was not his own,
being Of cheap material and badly
soiled. The hat that he wore had on it
initials other than his own and bore
the trade mark Of q Minneapolis,
Mimi. firm. His own clothing evident
~ had been stolen and other garments
given him.
STARTS on A TIME
Local interest in Cookers death CEN
tered to-day around Charles Wilson,
the Coates House negro porter, who
placed the young New Yorker on the
train for the South on Thursday night
Wilson, who is 90 years old, was ar
rested after midnight and held pending
investigation. Although Wilson was
frank in all his admission 10 the police
and told a connected story that fitted
in closely with all they had learned
about the case from other sources. it
was decided TO put him through an
other severe examination.
In the meantime a dozen detectives
continued 10 work on the case in an
endeavor TO gain any evidence that
would throw further light upon Crok-
er's movements while in Kansas, City.
When Wilson was examined by Chief
Of Police John Hayes to-day nothing
new wss learned from him. but fol-
lowing the examination an officer was |
sent out 10 bring in All Lee, the Chi |

After the examination of Wilson,
Chief Hayes gave it as his opinion that
Croker had died from the effect of
smoking the opium too fast.
He had but a short time before
train time" said Chief Hayes, land
evidently in his endeavor to make the
best of the time took the drug too fast.
1 am convinced that Wilson has told
the truth and was not connected in
any way criminally with the death of
