groans, and when the lights were restored

.SW|NDLERS made RICH

Exploits Of the aBand Of the
Baker" Laid Bare to
Their Dupes.


Another exploit OF the Band of the
Baker" the gang of international thieves
now being broken up by the police. has
come to light today.
Two years ago they invented q mining
company in the United States. There was
no mine. but the shares were adroitly put
on the market at $40 apiece. They were
well subscribed, and In the course of a
received q preliminary dividend of S6.25 a
share.
Three months later they received fur
third three months another letter from
notice II o general meeting of the share
holders. and an intimation thatsyaluable
mineral discoveries had been made on the
company's property.
Mirabel. the leader OF the band. ex-
planned at the meeting OF the company
that further capital was needed to de-
velop the new discoveries. He said that
the directors had decided to make call
of SIS share. which would enable them
to extend the operations to the fullest
extent, and make the fortunes OF the
shareholders in very little time.
BY refinement of cleverness. the share
holders who did not wish to pay the call
were informed that their money would be
returned to them less the dividends al
ready paid.
Everybody paid this SIS call Since the
day they received the scrip the sharehold-
ers have not heard of the company or the
directors.

BERLIN, Jan. 49,
A young Polish nobleman, Count Johann
Won Buinsk has been sentenced to three
months Imprisonment and a heavy fine
at Landsberg for cheating at cards.

Ing seats. After play had gone on for
some hours Baron Poninski accused him
of cheating. and demanded an examina-

declared, his play suspicious.
Count Johann thereupon challenged
Baron Poninski to duel. The latter nos

was not a man of honor.
According to the evidence given at the

BERLIN. Jan. 1s.-AIl the leading es-
ADJUSTMENTS in Germany are being
thrown open to the deputation OF British
workmen who have been sent out by C. A.
Moreing. the rarif Reform candidate for
the Gainsborough division OF Lincoln
shire. to study the conditions OF German
working men. and thus far number OF
industrial centres IN Rhenish Prussia
have been visited.
Judging by the accounts published in
the German papers, they have found not
only that the stories Of German work
men having to live on horsefesh are
fables. but also that the German working
classes are well housed and clothed, re.
ceive adequate wages and. in short. are
comfortably off. while they can claim a
distinct advantage owing to the social
laws Of their country, which extend State
aid in case Of illness or accident and Sc
cure to them pensions when incapacitated
from work.

BOMBAY. Jan. 1s.

BOMBAY, Jan. 10.
The unavaillng efforts of centenarian
to die on particular day have been re-
sponsible for an extraordinary scene at
the island shrine Of Sadh Bella, at Suk-
kur, india.
On January 10 Sadhu, aged 10. ar
rived at the shrine from a distant VII
lage and announced that he had arranged
to die at II P. NJ. on January TO- which
happened to be specially sacred day of
fasting among the Hindus. At the same
time he handed the priest OF the temple
$3.50 and gave him instructions as to the
kind of funeral he desired.
The news spread like wildhre through.
out the district. and hundreds of people
repaired daily to the island shrine to OBJ
tain glimpse of the mysterious man.
When the day he had predicted would be
his last arrived. the crowds of people who
came were enormous. and by nightfall II
Is estimated that nearly 10000 had visited
the shrine.
For three days before the Sadhu had
cut down his diet to a very small guam
tity of milk. but even this was discon-
tinued on the day that was to have proved
fatal.
All the old mans efforts. however. were
in vain. Several times he tried desperate.
ly to breathe his last, but failed. Mum.
bers Of natives stayed with him until long
after midnight in the expectation of see
ing his prediction fulfilled. Finally. they
went away. apparently much disap.

The chief result OF the Sadhus effort.
was that large heap of coins and sweet.

Prince Nicholas of Montenegro. in for

addressing the new National Assembly.

my ancestors fell with them. We we're
never despots. but only martyrs for the
public veal.
..Autocracy did not clog the wheel OF
progress, but was a necessity OF the times.
The era OF Montenegrin sautocracy is one
worthy only. OF admiration.
But, convinced that the rule OF au-
tocracy should now end, have decided
to replace 1t by bestowing constitution
upon the people, who will now bear the
burden that lay upon ourselves.
"In bidding farewell to the present
regime ! recognize the merit of my pred
scessors, who bequeathed Independence to
u.s. and l thank the nation for its love
and fealty."
The Prince then took the oath depriv-
Ing him of the autocratic authority he
had hitherto welded In this little noun

which was observed everywhere with per-

DAIRY po1NGs.

Exquisite cleanliness is absolutely
necessary in every part of the dairY.
and not on the outside of the cuY'
only.
The dairyman has just as many
perplexfng problems to solve as the
man of affairs in the city. Brains
and Drawn are absolutely necessary
to make dairying a success
Many farmers regard dairying side
issue and are unwilling to provide
modern machinery to lessen the la
bors of the housemother. who strug-
giles with the time honored but tire
some ways of long ago.
A dairy" dream of the future Is
one that shows a United States
"gauger" stationed at each large
dairy (by the time they all will be
large). whose business it will be to
test the output. saddle 1t with a GER
tificate, put a price upon 1t and send
1t to market.
1t is claimed for st. Lawrence
county, New York, that more milk Is
produced in the county than any 9TH
er in the United States. The cheese
output in 1904 was 13.777,s ,s99 pounds.
and butter output 8,029,206 pounds.
Together with what milk and cream
was shipped out this would mean
total production of 322,696.977 pounds
OF milk. In round numbers the dairy
income of the county in 1903 was 49,
250,000.
In speaking of the wealth of Hol-
land, Prof. H. H. Dean said: ''It is
one of the wealthiest countries accord
ing to population of any in the world.
Now how have they made this money?
How have they been able to produce
the marvellous wealth which has ac-
crued to that very small country?
They have made it out of agriculture
and the particular branch of agricul-
ture which they have given speval
attention to is that of keeping cows
and the production of dairy goods.
