what be was talking about or who
was very ANXIOUS to make a false

open for inspection, and they will
show that the county debt reached
its highest mark under the admins
tration of one of the best fnanciers
the county ever bad, the late Judge
Conrad, q gentleman whose honesty
and integrity no one who knew bin
ever questioned. Two or three
wears after Judge Conrad went out
of Office the law allowing levy OF
Is cents for road purposes was en-
acted. and about $4,000 was anDu'L

But the Supreme court has declared
this act Unconstitutional. As to the

New York. April 1.-THE anthra-

submitted by the wage workers, and
made a counter proposal that the CON-
mittee appointed by President Roose-

whether any changes in conditions in
tie hard coal region have occurred
which require that the award of the
commission should be modified. The
mine owners limited tie inquiry to
two grievances-wages and method
for the adjustment of complaints. The
miners have taken the proposal under
consideration, and may give the
operators an answer when another

the temperature too high in the incu-

my machine was at 105 degrees dur
ing the last five days of incubation.
This was too high, and the moisture
was not abundant enough for such
high temperature. The result was
that the chicks just pipped but did moi
get out of the shells. The percentage
of matches depends to considerable
extent on the breed from which the
eggs come. When I use thin-shelled

horns, l get on an average SO per cent

Eeedino Chicks.

When the chicks are So hours old
bring them into the brooder house,
on the floor of which is sifted fine
limestone dirt, which 1 get at the rock
crushers at the rate of a two-horse
load for 25 cents. 1 let them pick at
this at will till they are 48 hours old.
Then they get cracked corn, oats and
wheat broken fine, and also little
water. This give them several times
a day till they are IA days old. Each
time I feed only what they will eat up
clean 1 clean away the gravel or
dirt every evening and put in new
gravel for the next day, and in the
morning and during the day l feed in
this fresh gravel They are always
busy scratching after the little grain.
One should be sure to buy only the
best grain.
When they are fourteen days old
they are free to come into the main
scratching pen, where they get alfalfa
leaves in addition to the same kind of
feed fed before, which is however
given in a coarser form. I keep a
sharp lookout for lice on the chicks,
and as soon as one louise is found, the
whole bunch of chicks have to go
through a dusting machine. I keep
the roosting house and scratching
shed as clean as possible, using fre-
quently a solution of crude carbolic
acid. If the chicks begin to sneeze
take them to the hospital and give
them dose of hydrogen peroxide,
one part to two of water, applying it
in the nostrils. That will cure the
trouble in two days. I have thus
cured the worst cases Of roup in d
few days. 1 never feed mash or any
of the numerous new kinds of feeds

DEATH AND DESTRUCTION FROM
MOUNT VEsUVLUS.
CHURCH FALLS ON REFUGEES.
Many Buildings Fall Under the
'Weight OF Ashes-Streams of Lava
Flowing From Crater Are Now Al
most Stationary.

Naples. April II. - Reports of IA
talities consequent upon the eruption
of Mount Vesuvius are coming in. Ac-
cording to information received prob
ably as many as 500 lives were lost.
1t is said that more than 1000 per-
sons per;shed in the district of San
Giuseppe, where from the ruins Of
a church which collapsed owing to
the weight of ashes on the roof, forty
nine corpses were extricated, and 1t
is asserted that at Sorrento 81 per-
sons were killed by falling houses. A
railway train from San Giuseppe for
Naples was derailed owing to show
ers of stones from the crater.
Cavalry proceeding to the sucor Of
the inhabitants of the devastated sec
ton have been unable to make pro-
gress, the rain falling on the ashes a
foot deep having made it impossible
for the horses to travel.
The sea is greatly agitated, the sky
has cleared, but heavy clouds hang
over the east, threatening further
downpour.
The streams of lava are almost
stationary. Troops are erecting bar
riers in the direction of Pompeii to
prevent further danger in that quar-
ter.
Almost equal with the devastation
wrought by the lava is the damage
done by cinders and ashes, which in
incredible quantities have been car
ried great distances. This has caus-
ed a practical destruction of San
Giuseppe. place of 5000 Inhabitants.
All but 200 of the people had fed from
San Giuseppe, and these 200 assem-
bled in a church to attend mass.
While the priest was performing his
sacred offices the roof fell in and
about GO persons were badly injured.

OPENS THE DOOR.
FOREIGNERS ADMITTED TO MAN
cHURIA May I.

Washington. April 1.-THE follow
ing statement was given out at the
Japanese legation:
Owing to the fact that the with
drawal of the troops from Manchuria
had not sufficiently progressed the
Japanese government hitherto has
neither permitted citizens and vessels
of foreign countries to enter the ports
and regions of Manchuria, nor allow
ed foreign consuls to proceed to their
posts therein. Considerable progress,
this respect, the Japanese govern
ment has decided, in accordance with
the principles of open door and oqual
opportunity, ever advocated by them,
to permit citizens and vessels Of
foreign countries to enter, from May,
An-Tung-Hsien and Ta-TungKao, and
allow foreign consuls to proceed to
their posts at An-Tung-Hsien. From
June foreign consuls shall be allowed
to proceed TO their posts at Mukden
and travelling of foreigners in me in
terror of Manchuria will be permitted
so far as military exigencies do not
prevent it. 1t has further been decid-
ed that the Japanese government will
open Dalny (Ta-LieniWan) to COM
merce of the world in as near future
as possible.
Judging from the present ccndi-
ton of the interior of Manchuria it is
impossible for the authorities to af-
ford such foreign travellers adequate
protection and facilities in housing
other matters. Those. therefore, who
enter the interior of Manchuria do so
entirely at their own risk. and the
Japanese government do not hold
themselves responsible for any injury
or damage which they may suffer
from bandits or other marauders.'
