Dry Feed For Chicks.

One of the best possible rations for
chick, whether reared under hen or
in brooder, is what we call dry ration,
writes Pennsylvania farmer in Amer
ican Cultiyator. 1t Is the nearest ap-
proach to the natural diet of fowl
possible to attain. This method calls
for all dry food, such as rolled wheat
and oats, small broken corn, rice or
grain of any kind, small seeds and beef
scraps mixed. To this should be add
ed small grit Of some kind. The beef
scrap should be of good quality that
has been properly prepared and nicely
ground. This kind Of food can be
greatly improved by the addition Of
some well broken peas and beans and
a little properly prepared clover. The
peas, beans and clover furnish the veg
etable and green food, the rest the
grain seed and animal portion of their
diet, giving them a most perfectly bal
anced ration. Should it be preferred
to add to this a mixed food. it should
be thoroughly scalded. If cooked or
baked, so much the better, for this
takes away the unnaturalness of the
food. but little trouble from feeding is
experienced when this method is fol

COOL WELCOME
TO DR.. IRVINE
Huntingdon Vestrymen Dis
play Displeasure When
He Appears to Explain
Special Dispatch to The Call.

HUNTINGDON, Pa, Dec. 31.--Fol-
lowed by private detectives, DR.. Ir-
vine arrived here tonight from Phil
adelphia- In passing from the station
to Railroad street he was recognized
by crowd of his former parishioners,
who began to point toward and cry
out: There's Irvine" The detectives,
also in carriages, had a hot chase after
lier, the Huntingdon vestryman who
did not deny having signed the pre-
sentiment against Bishop Talbot. Hell
lier refused admission to reporters,
though DR.. Irvine could be seen strid-
ing up and down the dining room floor.
Before reaching Hellier's home Dr.
Irvine went to the home of Mrs Flea
nor Jackson, mother of A. T. and H.
S. Jackson, whose names were attach
ed to the presentment.
Il hope you have come here to set
tie this matter that has caused us SO
much trouble" said Mrs. Jackson. II
hope you will make an explanation of
this affair.""
THAT is what I have come for" said
the priest. 1T all will be explained"
Just then Miller S. Jackson, one of
the petition signers, entered.
Good evening" said DR.. Irvine
warmly.
Good evening"" said Jackson coldly.
and passed on.
w. G. Miller, the vestryman Of ST.
Johns Episcopal Church who obtained
the signatures of the Huntingdon
prosecutors to the presentment OF DR..
Irvine against Bishop Talbot, said to-
day:
''The paper which my brother vestry-
men, Messrs. Langdon, Denithorn,
Jackson and the others, signed was a
petition addressed to Bishop Tuttle
praying that the controversy between
Bishop Talbot and DR.. Irvine be per-
manently settled. 1t was not present
ment in any sense, for / have in my
possession a copy of the paper. There
were two separate parts to it, one con-
tanning the petition itself and the other
a blank paper, both of which were at
tached. / received the papers from the
Rev. DR.. Irvine, at whose request OBJ
tanned the vestrymen's signatures and
to whom ! afterward returned the pa
pers. Langdon and Denithorn both
signed the papers about the middle of
November. All the vestrymen seemed
to comprehend the purpcrt Of the petit
tion and said 1t was good move. / Sc
cured also their signatures to the blank
which was attached, after stating to
them that this precaution would be ad-
visable in the event that the original
petition should become lost. I signed
only what 1 believed to be a simple
petition, and not a presentment to have
Bishop Talbot's official acts investi-
gated. The others / believe acted SIM
ilarly. If our names are attached tC
the presentment and the signatures are
genuine then there must have beer
some fraudulent manipulation Of the
blank paper which contained them"
Miller's change of position was q
great surprise. It is known that he is
personally friendly to Rev. DR.. Irvine
and, 1t is said. antagonistic to Bishop
Talbot. The indignation of the vestry.

ing their names on the presentmen'
had provoked them to threaten prose.

The controversy raised by the bureau

acute a few days ago. The problem Is
still IN the hands of Attorney General

PRESIDENT AND WIFE
STEAL MARCH ON GUARDS
Executive Eludes Vigilance of Secret
Service Men and Enjoys
Short Stroll


WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-President
Roosevelt, accompanied by Mrs.
Roosevelt, left the White House to-day
and went for a walk down Pennsyl-
vania avenue. It is unusual for the
President to appear walking on the
business streets; in fact. so far as is
known, this, is the, first time he has
walked along Pennsylvania avenue
since he entered the White House.
The President frequently walks
from the White House to church on
Sundays, but even then he is accom-
panied by secret service officers, who
discreetly follow him at a short dis
tance. To-day, however, the President
and Mrs. Roosevelt left the White
House unaccompanied. In a few min
utes the officers learned of their de-
parture from the house and little
while later located them on Pennsyl-
vania avenue.
The President was inclined to re-
gard as joke the fact that he had
eluded his guards. President and Mrs.
Roosevelt were recognized instantly
and as they walked along the avenue
were the recipients of marked and re-
spectful attention.

MORE INDICTMENTS TO COME.
Hitchcock Says the Work
Has Been Only Begun.


Has Been Only Begun.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3l.-The news
of the indictment of Senator Mitchell
and Representative Hermann for con-
spiracy to defraud the Government out
of public lands had been expected for
some time by those officials having to
do with the case, and it came as no
surprise. Secretary Hitchcock frank
ly said that he had looked for the in
dictment at any time. Attorney Gen.
eral Moody declined to make any COM
ment.
Secretary Hitchcock consented to
make a brief statement concerning the
case. He said:
while we all regret that men oc-
cupying high stations in public life
should get within the clutches of the
law, the Interior Department and the
Department of Justice had their duty
to perform. These land fraud indict-
ments are the result of two years of
the most searching investigation and
are part of the unalterable determin-
alton of the President and the admins
tration to bring to justice all violators
Of the law, be they high or low.
"These indictments" continued the
Secretary, will not be the last. More
are to follow, although / believe / can
say that the investigation will involve
no more officials as high in public SER
vice AS are these two members of
Congress. All the cases will be placed
in the hands of the Department Of
Justice, and the prosecution will be
vigorous. / cannot say just how many
additional indictments will be return
ed in the various cases, but it is true
that this is simply beginning"

NGLO-AME,RICAN ALLIANCE
DEEMED AN uMPOSSIBILITy
Russian Press Believes Great Britain
Is Merely Pretending That
Agreement Exists.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. s1-The
Russian papers are beginning to dis
cuss the British and continental re-
ports of an alleged Anglo-American
alliance, but consider that they have
not any solid foundation and that they
represent more the British anxiety to
have it appear that such an alliance is
in prospect than the deliberate purpose
of the United States to abandon her
traditional policy.
The Gazetta declares the commercial
rivalry between the two countries rem
ders a lasting agreement impossible.
But the paper says it may be that a
temporary truce Is being glorified as an
alliance for political purposes to
strengthen japan and intimidate Rus
sia.
