game that had just been won by virtue OF
some consecutive batting and bungling by
the Washingtons. Bunk" made his great
catch in the eighth inning The score stood
3 to In favor of Cleveland. Jones, the
first batter up. received life on Turner's
error. Then Altixer came to bat. Congal-

have reached third. whence he would have
scored on Hickman's out, thus tying the
score.

Hanged on Ghosts Testimony.

From. the London Daily Standard.
The testimony of q "gaoss" would not
nov count for much in a court of law, but
the day has been when it has sufffced to
hang q man. 1t is stated that the original
dispositions are In the Bodleian library of a
most remarkable case Of this character.
A girl named Anne Walker was up
posed to nave been sent away for her good
by 9. substantial farmer. Some time after
ward a so-called apparition appeared to a
%neighbor, with It's head all bloody from
wounds, and telling him that she had been
murdered by the farmer and an accom-
pliee. Her body, the appaEition said, had
been buried in q spot which she described,
and she begged the MAJ to whom She
appeared to bring her murderers to JUS
tice. True enough, the body was found
in the place mentioned and the men We're
brought to trial. The sensational char
acter of the case was intensified by one
OF the jurymen declaring that he saw the
child of the ia woman sitting upon the
shoulder" of its father, the farmer. Both
the culprits We're hanged.
There was a ghostly accuser In n case
with which readers of Scott are faTnilar.
Soon after the ",45', an English soldier
wandering near Braemar met a violent
death. Hawks do not peck out hawks cen
and no mar opened his mouth to give q
clew. Years passed and then came a story
of q communication from another world.
A farm servant declared that In the
night a spirit had appeared to him., de-
claring itself to be the ghost of the solder,
whose bones it said lay still unburied. Ihe
Highlander must see to their decent IN
terment and have the murderers, two men
named, brought to justice. The Highland
er promised, but did not keep his word
and a second and third time the spirit
appeared and uphraided him for his breach
of faith. Alarmed at last and no longer
daring 60 delay, the man called O com
panion, went to the spot which the Splfi'
had indicated and there found the bones
of the murdered warrior concealed IN 9
moorland tract called the Hill of Christie
The story of the Highlander came to the
ears of an anti-Jacobite, who caused the
matter to be brought to trial before tnf
court of justiciary, Edinburgh. There the
tale was corroborated by a woman who
had seen a naked figure enter the place
on the night spoken of by the man. i

of these and increase the per cent. of the
other foods forgetting, apparently, that
by this plan they have no longer a bal
anced ration but an unbalanced one. Oth-
ers will feed a balanced ration as they see
it described and if the results are not all
tina they hope they consider it of no
value and go back to the old guess plan.
Take this ration, for example, one that
may form a basis for a cow of average
! weight: Glover hay, twenty pounds, corn,
! eight pounds and bran five pounds. Many
dairymen will object to this ration on ac-
count of the quantity of grain. Possibly
there is to much grain in it for sNlme COWS,
but the suggestion is, take this ration as
a basis and experiment with it until the
per cent. of each food fits your individual
herd and then continue to feed it after
you have proven it's value for your cows.

Formerly it was not generally considered
that Holsteins were particularly suited

the idea was a mistaken one has been

who are authorities on the subject claim
that a good sire at the head of the herd

this has been done some of the COWS of
