Lively Is in Kentucky.

Louisville, Ky.-S. Frank Lively, the
telegraph operator whose nap caused
the disastrous collision between two
passenger trains on the Denver & Rio
Crande railroad near Adobe Colorado
last Friday morning. arrived Wednes
day at his old home at Munfordville,
Kentucky He said he had nothing fur
ther to say than what he had already
state d-that he was working overtime
and had asked for relief in vain sew
cral times, finally falling asleep at his
post. and thus failing to deliver the
train dispatcher's order which would
have prevented the collision. He was
met at the train by numerous rela.
tives. who heartily sympathized with
him in his predicament. and think he
las done the manly thing in frankly
shouldering all blame for the accident.

PACKERS GO FREE.
But Corporations Will Have to Stand
Trial.

Chicago-All of the packers who
were indicted by the federal grand
jury last summer upon charges of be-
ing in conspiracy in restraint of trade
and commerce were to-day granted inn
munity from criminal prosecution un
der the Indictment While the individ
uals are to go free the indictments
found against the corporations of
which some of the indicted individuals
are members and others are employees,
are to stand The decision to III, above
effect was handed down by Judge Otis
Humphrey in the United States Dis
trict Court.
He decided in favor of the packers
in their contention that they were
compelled by the government to furnish
information, saying that under no cir.
cumstances could it be contemplated
that the defendants in the case had vol
unteered evidence. He declared that
it was evident all of the information
had been compelled. The court held
that the crucial fact in the case was
the interview at the Chicago Club be-
tween Commissioner Garfield and rep
resentatives of the packers in the
course of which the commissioner out
lined his powers and indicated to the
packers that he was able to force them
to surrender information to his de
partment, if they declined to &urnish it
He reviewed the case at length in al,
its bearings. cited all the essentia!
facts which had been brought out ant
concluded as follows:
"Under the law in this case the i'm
munity pleas filed by the defendants
will be sustained as to the individuals
and denied as to the corporations, the
artificial persons, and the jury will find
in favor of the government as far as
the corporations are concerned and
against the government as far as the
individuals are concerned"

ROUTED THE TIGER WITH MAP.
Presence of Mind Saved Life of Ena.
!ish SURVEYOR

How an English surveyor routed a
MaIayan tiger, with no other weapon
than a rolled-up map. is told by the
Straits Times of Singapore: while a
well-known local surveyor, who had
been kept out late at work on Satur-
day night. was drifting in a rillisna
along Tampenis road, about 1880
O'Clock, his rikisha coolie suddenly
dropped the shafts and ran for his life
into the edge of the jungle On peer
ing into the darkness-the vehicle
was not carrying a light-the gentle
man saw large creature standing in
the middle of the road. He got out of
the rikisna and went towards the
beast, thinking it some large dog that
had frightened the coolie. When
within six or seven yards he per-
ceived that the brute was large tt
ger.
He had no weapon except a large
district survey map rolled up. He
saw the futility of attempting to dis
able the tiger with the rolled-up map,
but the thought struck him that he
might manage to frighten it my mean
Of his roll. Suddenly he unrolled it
with a quick flip, spreading it to its
full area of four or five feet square
With single bound the tiger cleared
of into the Jungle
The next thing was to find the
coolie, who eventually was discovered
in state of collapse in the ditch He
was unable to pull his fare back and
it vas not until three or four miles
had been traversed with both men on
foot that he recovered sufficiently to
pull the European home"

as the potato patch.
Mr.. Woodall commences with the IN.
mato; he tells us we should have a field
OF scarlet clover especially covered with
ten loads Of manure; (he should have
said thirty, for ten ordinary loads of
manure would to my mind be altogether
too small an amount if we expect paving
crop) His formula for phosphate Is
all right, l have no criticism to make on
that; but when he comes to say that we
don't loose anything if we never market
a basket Of tomatoes, it makes me stop
minute and do little thinking and a |
little figuring. For instance, we will
take a field of five acres; on this is a well
seeded clover sod, for that is what be saws
we need. Over this we spread ten loads
OF manure per acre; now then, how much
is this crop worth if left for hay? How
much is the crop of corn, or COW peas.
either for hay or seed worth? How .
much has the crop of COW peas added to =
the fertility of the soil ? 1t is impossible
for us to know that; but I will saw this
4 would much rather have two bushels n
of COW peas sown on one acre of ground "
o build it up, than Mr.. WoodalPs ten
Dads of manure. Not only that; but l :
would have nice lot of valuable hay be- p
ides. l can only compare ground where
he cowpea has grown; one way it is sim
ly like leven in the bread.
Not wishing to tire you with lengthIy
tier, | will close by simply giving you
few figures. This supposed five acres
clover, should cut one-and-one.half
ms OF hay per acre; that will give us
tons, worth on the
arket, ten dollars per ton; here we find ,
Venty five dollars. A crop of corn fol- ,
wing that, is worth just for the corn,
teen dollars more at a low figure; or if E
COW peas it is worth as much for hay I
seed. Now how much is Mr.. Wood
S tomato crop worth, and how much n
it cost to get it?
We can't tell how much it is worth any
re than we can count the chickens be- ev
they are Matched; but to give the nj
lg fair aspect we will give it an 81
oximate estimation at six tons to the Sa~
}, and at seven dollars per ton would
us forty two dollars; or two hundred

To mission of error that no disciple of stand-patism would consider for mo- ment. The vote on the Bracket reso- lutirn asking Chauncey to resign there fore is of slight significance. When the people of New York have an op- portunitv to express themselves on his betrayal of public trust, and on the use of insurance funds for corrupung pol itics. he will receive no such coating of whitewash as the Senate bestowed upon him Tuesday.
