SIMMONS IS SENTENCED.
Negro Whose Case Was Reversed by
 Supreme Court -.

Tom Simmons, the negro who as- saulted W. J. Reynolds, a railroad en- gineer, about a year ago and who at his first trial was sentenced to fifteen years in the penitentiary on the charge of assault to commit murder will get off much lighter than was at first in tended.
 The case was appealed from Judge Thomas's court decision to the Su- preme Court and that body decided that the offense of the negro was nothing more serious than assault and battery with a weapon.
 The case was remanded to the City Court and the negro appeared before Judge Thomas yesterday and pleaded guilty to the assault and battery charge. He was fined $200 and was given six months at hard labor. He will have to work seventy days in lieu of the payment of the fine and will give the county 160 days of his time to set tie for the costs of his case.
 Simmons has served out one term in a pistol case and was working out his fifteen year sentence when his case was reversed. He is the negro on whom a sharp homemade knife was found when the prisonerssof the county jail were searched after the escape of two culprits on Sunday morning.

 pr. Benjamin Shambaugh. as com missioner for the State of Iowa. has just completed an investigation of the system employed by this sta,e. He says he will recommend t his State government. This decision was reached by Dr. Shambaugh after a careful in- vestigation of methods used in Wiscon- sin, in Canada, in Chicago and in oth- CT great centers.
 There are two plans for preserving historical data in operation in this country. They have come to be known as The Wisconsin Plan" and The Ala bama plan The Wisconsin system gives the work Into the charge of State Historical Society. The Alabama method provides a State Department, with a Director, whose duty 1t is to preserve care for and catalogue all things received for the archives of the State. l4 ss tis

 In building new Capitol the State of Iowa has provided for a Hall of Ar chives The trustees of the State Su- prene Court Library and State Ar ehives, by a recent act of the Legisla- ture were authorized to re-organize the work of gathering historical data In order to get the best information on the subject Dr. Shambaugh was di- rected to visit the leading cities of the United States and Canada and ascertain the best plan to meet the situation. Dr. Shambaugh spent thirty days in Madison. Wis. investigating the Wis consin plan. He then went to Chica- go, and Buffalo. where he inspected public and private collections and methods of gathering and preserving historical relics He went to Ottawa, Canada, where there is one of the most magnificent historical halls and mu- seums In the world. He came back to Albany. NSFs and visited7 Washington, going through the departments there and studying methods employed.
 From Washington Dr. Shambaugh came to Montgomery. He was &C., quainted with Dr. Thomas M Owen, Director of Archives and History for Alabama, and pr. Owen took great pleasure in showing him through his department and giving him opportunity to look into the Alabama plan. Dr. Shanibaugh went to New Orleans. Thence he will visit Jackson, Miss, and will then return to his home. He de- clared that the Alabama plan was the best he had seen and that he would so report to the government of his State.
 As member of the American His torical Association Dr. shambaugh is hel din high esteem. He is at present Chairman of the Committee on State and Local Historical Societies in which position he succeeded Dr. Owen.

Mutton in Great Demand.

The extent Of mutton consumption
may be understood when 1t Is stated
that during the expired eleven months
of the current year there have been
marketed at Chicago. Kansas City,
Omaha, st. Louis and st. Joseph, q
total of 9,050,s04 sheep, against
|S,205,042 during the same period OF
1904. an Increase of S45,762, and YET
some trade authorities will contend
that mutton values advanced in re-
Spouse to scarcity. The only logica
reason for the phenomenal apprecia'
ton of the past year is increased con
sumption.
| 1t is conceded that fewer sheep an6
lambs are in feed lots than at this
time last year. SO that all of the in.
crease in supply and more has gone
into the food supply. Packers have
no mutton on hand, and are buying
from hand to mouth.
Unless the American people sudden
jly acquire distaste for mutton, thu
man who is making it has no caus'
for alarm.

Dairy farmers in the east get from
$500 to $500 per hundred weight for
skim milk, and farmers in the west
are rapidly learning how to make
equal value of it by keeping it on
their own farms. If your COWS have
failed in their milk supply during the
last two months. you may find the
cause in the lack of succulent feed.
The milk flow cannot be maintained
on dry pasture.
The making of a good dairy COW
begins with the calf. Heifers design
ed for the dairy should have the very
best care from the day they are born
until they begin to do service in the
dairy. We too often forget that
the young dairy cow in her first year
of milking has not reached her full
growth and therefore needs extra feed
and care to make up for the tremen-
dous drain upon her system.
