MURDERS MANY PEoPLE.

There is now In custody in Leipsfc a
man named Dittrich who is charged
with ten murders, some committed in
Germany and some in Austria. He was
first arrested for the murder of a wom-
an near Koenigstein. He then not only
confessed but admitted two other muir
ders near Leipsic and three in Austria.
AS the man has been several times in
an asylum, the case was at first thought
to be one of homicidal hallucination,
but information from the Austrian po-
lice confirms the mans statements. The
Berlin police have now satisfied them
selves that he is also the author of
four mysterious murders committed be-
tween 1894 and 1906 in the Grunewald-
fort, on the Lunfernbeide, at Erch-
walde and in the forest of Zenthen

LAND OFF ONE LANGUAGE.

Wherever we may have been born
we use and accept as ours one language
from the Atlantic othe Pacific; il is
hard, therefore. for US to realize that
in some parts of Europe the real lam
guage of the country is confined to the
use of the peasant population. In parts
of Belgium, for instance, Flemish is
used by the workmen. servants, cab
men and the poorest classes. French
is the speech of the rest of the popula-
tion. The street signs are printed in
both. In Finland the peasants speak
only Finnish. In the towns Swedish
(Which has no relation whatever to
Finnish) is spoken, whereas the official
language of the courts is Russian. Gull
tivated Films depend for their liter
ature largely upon the outside world
and are, therefore, conversant with
English. French and German.
Germany is fairly uniform in speech,
but there are 8. 1000, 900 Wends living in
or near the fens and forests of the
national customs and their Slavic
speech, despite the progress of. the
modern Germans around them. They
publish six journals.
Although in America we have large
numbers of people. whose mother
tongue is one of the more difficult and
rarer languages. this class of the popu-
lation Is not very apparent in our ma
tional life.
1t is Interesting to note that a Rus

COURAGE OF THE oRc.s

: IF the killer whale is ."the tiger OF
the sea- the orcas, surely. are the vui-
tIres of the ocean. In connection with
whale catching. the author of an in
teresting natural history article tells
of the following incident .
Some years ago a whaler in the
Northwest had killed a large whale.
and had the animal alongside. when IL
was attacked by school OF orcas. They
doubtless were half-starved. and
crazed by the scent of blood that. ex-
tended away a long distance, probably
followed It up like hounds. Immediately

spades and Iances. cut and slaShed at
them, infiicting terrible blows, yet, de-
spite this. the orcas literally tore the
whale from the ropes and carried Il

DUCKS AND FISH
ENDANGERED BY
REFUSE OIL.

MARTINEZ, Oct. duck hunters
from Benicia to the lower Sacramento
River are raising vigorous objections
to the quantity of refuse oil allowed
TO escape upon the waters. claiming
that the birds that survive the oil are
impregnated with. it and are scarcely
fit TO shoot.
Last season thousands of ducks
could be caught by hand along the
mud flats of San Pablo Bay at low
tide, the oil having made their wings
so sticky and. their bodies so heavy
that they could not leave the water.
This condition of affairs is attribute ed
to tire negligence of the steamboat
men who allow their refuse fuel and
lubficating oil to escape from the yes
sells. The railroads also let their
refuse escape In this manner and at
Benicia have made a practice of clean
ing out their oil cars on the Solano
pier 1t has been claimed by the
fishermen who live In this vicinity
that fish We're never so scarce as AT
present. and they lay 1t to the same
cause.
The conditions at Davisville are
even worse than here, as the railroad
company conceived the plan of distrib-
uting oil at that point in the hope that
by covering the surface of the water
with. oil there would be less danger
of washouts along the levees.
The upriver sportsmen say that If
the plan is carried out the oil will
completely ruin one of the best feed
ing grounds in the State and may
mean the destruction of valuable
hunting preserves.

FLOWING BY STEAM
AT NIGHTTIME
Farmers in Western Kansas.
Resort to New Methods
of Tilling the Soil

The steam plow has become a ia
miliar object in Western Kansas. Man.
ayers of the big implement houses here
say that about $50 outfits have been
sold in the past twelve months. and
that about 500 are in use on the West
wherever the fields are large enough
and the ground level enough. to- permit.
their operation.
All through the western portions of
the wheat belt big traction engines
with wheel tires nearly yard wide are
at work pulling the gang plovs
and turning up the soi1 at the rate of
thirty acres day with two men work
ing each outfit These two men. work
ing in the old. way. could p1ow only
about six acres a day. so that the
steam plow has increased the efficiency
of labor fvefold in this one character
of farm work. -.
These outfits cost about $500. but
the expense Of plowing averages only
about 40 cents an acre as compared
with an expense of rs cents to s1.5O
an. acre where the work is done by a
man with a team. Therefore. a farmer
can save enough IN a few years to pay.
for a steam plow. = =

condition has prompted some FARMERS

!. The only objection to the steam plow
is that it enables farmers to plant.
more wheat than they can harvest.
In.the portions of Central and western
Kansas. where the farms are large
and the population is comparatively
sparse favorable fall for pIowing
