There was a hurried call for an A.
D. T. messenger boy from an Atchison
home this morning, and when he got
there he found he was wanted to but
ton a woman's waist up the back. She
had tried to do it herself until she had
broken off every finger nail and
sprained both arms and her back but
there was the middle button that she
couldn't reach. The women say that
the middle button of woman's shirt
waist, if she persists in wearing it
open in the back, will finally result in
her becoming as profans as any man.

Home Of a Neighbor on Third Street,
Frightened by Gazer.
There is "Pccping Tom" in Nor
folk Pccring into houses late mt
night and frightening women Is his
hobby. Policeman UcChor says he
knows who the individual Is and that
he will arrest the fellow If he finds
him, but he has not seen him since
the last ofrcnsc of the bold one, when
hc looked into bedroom at midnight
and so frightened the unprotected
mother and daughter within that for
week they left the house at night and
slept at the home Of a neighbor On
| that occasion Onccr l1eChcr remained
at the house where the man had APP
pcarcd, from midnight until o'clock
In the morning In the belief that the
fellow might return, but the gazer
stayed away and has not been found
since
All of last week, until the last three
nights, Mrs Minnie Anderson and her
daughter, Miss Maggie Anderson, who
live on South Third street, four blocks
from Norfolk avenue, slept at the
home of Mrs. Hughlitt, neighbor, be-
cause they were afraid to remain at
their own home where they had re-
coivcd a fright when they found an un-
known man looking intently into their
room at night.
It was just before midnight when
Mrs Anderson and her daughter, who
live alone and who were about TO re.
tire, looked at the window pane and
discovered, with his face pressed hard
against the glass and his eyes gazing
curiousIy at them, the features Of a
man. Instantly when he was discov-
cred the fellow fed
Mrs. Anderson telcphoned for a po-
liceman and officer Uccher responded
promptly. He remained around the
neighbOrhoOd from that hour until 5
in the morning, trying TO locate the
man, but without success. Mr.. Uecher
told Mrs. Anderson that he knows who
the man is and says he will arrest the
invader on sight
d After staying away from home at
night for a week, Mrs. Anderson and
her daughter determined to return,
, and they have not been troubled since.
, The action Of this man resembles
, somewhat those Of boys in town who
were reported some weeks ago TO be
. peering into peoples houses at night.

NAN DIES HERE ON TRAIN
W. c. WILKINS OF VICTOR, IOWA,
MEETS SUDDEN DEATH.
RETURNING FROM sHosHoNl
Enlargement of the Spleen Caused the
Death Of Traveller Just Before Train
Reached junction Station - Father
and Four Others With Him.
IFrom saturday-s s Dally.l

Sudden death on train just a mo-
ment before it reached the Norfolk
Junction station Saturday afternoon
at 2 was the sad fate meted out to
w. c. wilkins of Victor, Iowa, an eX-
cursion homeseeker who was returning
from Shoshoni.
His father and four friends were
with Mr.. wilkins when he was sud
denly taken i'll with enlargement of
the spleen and died. Though he had
not been feeling well on the return
trip, he was not seriously i'll until the
train reached the Northwestern yards
at Norfolk where the man, few mo-
ments before the station was reached.
expired. He had been given morphine
at Chadron last night, at which point
he sought physician because he was
not feeling well at that point.
Remains Embamed Here.
The remains were taken off the
train at the Junction and carried into
the baggage room Later they were
brought to the undertaking parlors of
Sessions & Bell, where they were en-
balmed. The body was taken to Iowa
yesterday for burial.
Mr.. wilkins was a man thirty-three
years of age and leaves a wife and
child in Iowa. Together with this
homeseeking party of five, including
his father, he had made the trip tc
Shoshoni where he registered for land
in the big land lottery. On the return
trip he did not feel as well as he hat
been feeling, and at Chadron consult

perhaps worth seventy-f1ve dollars, was
supposed to bring several hundred in

must bring was eternally dinned into

inquisitive, could get an inkling as to

whose uptown place of business is

able possessions to pawn, tells of con-
slant visitations to his place of mes

come hurrying in with jewels on which
they are in a great hurry to raise mon
ey at once.In his vaults are rings,
brooches and pins innumerable, torn
hurriedly from the fingers and gowns
of card crazed women, whose interest
in the game could not be appeased even
when their last penny was gone. "Wo-
men employ bellboys and messengers
with such regularity that we have an
average of several calls day." said
the proprietor OF the shop. Lace
handkerchiefs, with the perfume Of
faint odor of cigarettes still senting
them; furs and other articles of cloth
ing come here as well as jewels" The
card playing of women is as serious as
that OF professional gamblers, and, as
the following will illustrate, it is just as
exacting!
In one of the ultra fashionable up
town hotels wealthy young woman
entered a game with some friends, and
in few hours she lost several hum
dred dollars. She did not seem to rea-
lie that the debt was one of honor,
and when she rose from the table she
passed the matter off as a joke She
really did not consider the game in any
other light than that of amusement,
but her friends had, and they were
consequently enraged, The result was
that the loser was almost, if not entire
" ostracised from her set, and her
name was stricken from the calling list
of large number of women who had
heard of her action.
An incident, which caused considera-
BILE gossip at the time, came to my per-
sonal notice at a fashionable shore re-
sort last summer. One of the we'll
known members of the social set ap-
peared on the scene with a very hand

Success in breeding any domestic
animal turns on personal care that can

man who would begin fur farming is
better off with five acres than with 500.
This individual method is what 7 call
the retail plan. 1t has been proved
success many times.
Fur farming offers a good chance for
small capital. A man Of experience
may put In $1,000 and get remarkable

There is no object in breeding cheap
furs. A muskrat with his lucent pelt

high class furs will no considered?

No doubt the sea otter. Its ample ana

told, from $500 to 81 900, but the animal
is SO rare that large fortune would
be exhausted In getting the stock, and
nothing is known of the methods ne-
oessary for 1t propagation
Next ON the list is the silver fox.
The black or silver fox is nothing but
black phase or freak of the common
fox, just as the black sheep is color
freak Of the common Sleeps. A pair Of
pure red foxes may have a black fox
in the litter, and that black fox may
grow up to be the parent Of nothing

only dollar or two and the silver
fox hundred as much.-Country Life

relevancy Of the testimony later on.
Counsel for the defense took an ex-
ception.
Constable Green was then recalled,
and tstified that when he was taking
Mrs. Jennings and young Taylor to
New Haven the night Of the murder,
Taylor pointed out to him the location
in the footpath where the body was
found Mrs. Jennings told the boy to
shut up Taylor told the witness he
was dishonorably discharged from the
navy because he was dirty and DISC

The next witness was Betsy ellison of
East Haven, who testified concerning
minor matters.
The state then called Mrs. Ada Brock
EFT, whose testimony Is depended upon
to clinch the representations Of the
prosecution. Yesterday she testified to
the continuous discord which had pre-
vailed in the Jennings household, the
sequence of which was the alleged kill
ing of jennings She had not, however,
arrived at the important part of her
testimony when the court adjourned at
4 o'clock until 10 o'clock Tuesday morn

There was much speculation yester-
day as to whether Mrs. Ella Wheeler

will be remembered that at one time

RAISING FUR BEARING ANIMALS.
The rapid disappearance of wild fur
bearers, combined with the steady de-
mand and ever rising prices command
ed by good furs, has led many to look
for means Of artifcially supplying the
want
1t is years since the idea Of breed
ing for fur was brought forward, but
never were the times SO ripe as now.
This kind of farming offers two dis
tinct fields, First, the production Of
new variety of some already domes-
ticated and easily multiplied animal
as cat, dog, goat, rabbit or cow-with
coat of such quality as to have a new
value as fur. The second is the breed
ing, protection, Of certain wild animals
whose fur has already an established
market value. In this class are beaver,
mink, otter, skunk, marten, fisher and
fox.
There are two ways of dealing with
this: We may call them wholesale and
retail. The first is the distinctive
choice of the beginner. He usually
plans to get possession of an island, a
mountain valley, or at least a couple
of hundred acres Of wild land with a
high fence around 1t. This he expects
to stock with fur bearers that will In
crease speedily to thousands, after
which he has nothing else to do but
shovel in a few ecns of offal weekly
and draw off few thousand of the
choicest pelts each fall. This is what
I call the Wholesale method. 1t has
never yet succeeded with red foxes, nor
indeed, with any creature that know
of, except, perhaps TO some extent,
