Origin of Barbed Wire.

The luckiest invention in history. ."
said patent office official, was that
of barbed wire. 1t came about by
accident
Isaac l.. EIlwood was the inventor
of barbed wire. In his youth he
lived in De Kalb, ILL.,, and having a
neighbor whose pigs trespassed on his
garden. he put up one day a wire
fence of his own make. This fence
had barbs and points on It; IL was
queer and ugly; but it kept out the
pigs.
1t was a real barbed wire fence
the first in the world, and there was
millions of money in it, but young Ell
wood and his friends laughed at its
freak appearance.
One day two strangers saw the
fence, perceiving how we'll it kent ont
the pigs, realized how cheap II was
realized, in word, its value. and or
dered several tons of it from Ellwood
Furthermore, they contracted To sell
for a term of years all the barbed wire
he could produce.
"Ellwood borrowed $1,000 and SET
up little factory. A few years later
he had paid back this loan and was
worth small matter of SIS. 900 o0o

THE HAYWOOD TRIAL.

Counsel for William ID. Haywood at
Boise, in their efforts to discredit the
testimony of Harry Orchard, put a
witness on the stand whose testimony
strongly indicated that the explosion
In the indicator mine was an acct
dent and not a crime.
In the Haywood trial at Boise, Idaho,
a ruling by the court materially limited
the showing of the defense as to the
alleged counter conspiracy by the
mine owners.
William +. Davis, who, according TO
Harry Orchard, was a leader in sever
al of the mine crimes in Idaho, was
put on the stand by the Haywood de-
Tense and denied Orchards state
ments. His testimony was weakened
somewhat by Senator Borah's severe
cross-examination.
The first direct testimony in the de-
Tense of William d. Haywood was
chiefly directed toward showing that
Harry Orchard, blaming Frank Steun-
enberg for the loss of his interest in
the Hercules mine. had threatened to
nave revenge Dy hllllHS MIN, anu lhoI
the conduct of Orchard and K. G. Ster-
ling, both before the Independence
explosion, when they were frequently
seen together, and afterwards, when
Sterling called off the bloodhound that
was following Orchards trail, justified
the inference that the mine owners in
spired the crime.
In an address that occupied two ses-
sions of the district court at Boise,
Idaho, Clarence barrow, of Chicago,
outlined to the jury the defense OF
William ID. Haywood to the charge
that he murdered former Gov. Steun-
enberg. In broad description, 1t is to
be denial of every material count in
the testimony of Orchard, with a show
Ing that Orchard killed Steunenberg
because of a private grudge borne by
the loss of a rich share in the great
Hercules mine, and explanations OF
the independent circumstances that
tend to connect three co-defendants
with Orchards life and operations.

SIDE LIGHTS
ON MICHIGAN
THE GOVERNOR HAS SIGNED THE
BILLS AND WILL REST
DURING JULY.
81 81 SIX POCKET VETOED
A Clever Bill For Chippewa County
Among Them-Sesslon Cost One
Hundred and Sixty Thousand.
Special Session In February.

Gov. Warner signed the last bill
shortly after 6 o'clock Friday night
and left Lansing for his home, decid-
Ing not to remain for the formal ad-
journment at noon Saturday. During
the month of July he will accept no
engagements, having promised his
family that he would remain with
them at Cass Lake.
The governor exercised his power
OF pocket veto on six bills, which are
as follows: Military bill; Detroit 20
lice court BILL changing date of Sc
lecting keeper of Tuscola county
house; bill deciding delinquent state
tax lands in Chippewa county to the
county for road purposes at 10 cents
an acre; creating townships of Rhors
and Gordon in Altoona county; chang
ing a school district in Arenac county.
BY all odds the cleverest bill that
skipped through the legislature under
the guise of being a local bill was the
one providing that all delinquent state
tax lands in Chippewa county should
be decided to the county at 10 cents
an acre During the day the COVER
nor received a number of kilograms
urging him not to forget the bill so
he looked it over very carefully with
the result that he marked it IN. G."
There are now 1906 acres of delin-
quent state tax lands in Chippewa
county which are estimated to be
worth $53, 436 by the state land office.
The policy of the state is to auction
off this land so that the state can get
the taxes and the Chippewa bill would
set bad precedent as the state now
has on hand some 100000 acres of de-
linquent tax lands and would get very
little return if sold TO the counties
at 10 cents an acre. The governor is
wondering how such a bill ever got
through. The present session cost
the state 100000.
Before leaving Gov. Warner said
that he would probably call the spe-
cial session for February /, so that it
can Immediately follow the constitu-
tional convention which will begin its
work October %.

HOLY LAND BELIEFS
IMPLICIT FAITH IN POINTS ABOUT
HORSES.
Lucky and UnIucky Signs Are Many
white Stockings Highly Valued
Peculiar Marks That Show
Speed Of Animal.

The people of the Holy Land have
implicit faith in the following points
about horses:
A white star in the center of the
forehead of a horse is considered a
lucky sign.
Small ears and a small mouth in a
horse denote good breed.
Two small black spots located just
above the hoof on the white-stock-
inged left hind leg of horse Is an
unlucky sign.
In certain parts of the country
horse is valued by the number OF
white stockings he may have. If It
have one 1t is said to be worth 100
coins (any coins from paras upward,
according to the breed, PAGES, ETC., Of
the animal.) If 1t have two or three
white stockings il is valued in the
same way, but If it have four then
the horse is said to be worth nothing
at ell.
A horse that is habitually paving
the ground is said to be digging it's
owners grave.
A horses speed can be reckoned by
the position of the small hair twist
that is usually found at the end of the
ribs close to the body projection on
the animals flank behind the saddle.
The higher from the ground the hair
twists the faster the animal can go.
Two hair twists placed one above
the other in the center of the fore
head of a horse is called a Kabr
Maftuh C'open grave'). 1t is con-
sidered very unlucky to ride a horse
with this mark, as the person who
does so is destined to die within a
short space of time thereafter.
The hair twist on a horses neck is
both lucky and an unlucky sign. If
1t curl forward toward the horses
head, it is lucky sign, for it signifies
that the sword of the rider conquers;
If, on the other hand, it be reversed
and curl backward, then the sword Of
the enemy will conquer.
The bay colored horse is said to be
the swiftest of all the horses. A
story to illustrate this is told of a
certain Arab sheik who, having been
engaged in a fight with another tribe,
was taking his flight with his little
son.
They were both mounted on a mag
nificent white mare, which belonged to
the sheik. and which had always been
highly valued on account of the great
speed at which it could go. After
having ridden some little distance. the
sheik asked his son to look round
and see If they were being followed.
The boy replied that there was some
one riding after them on a black
horse. The sheik seemed satisfied on
hearing this report, but presently re-
peated his question. The boy an
swered that they were still being pur-
sued, but this time the horse was
white. Never mind" said his father,
mine is better"
In few minutes he asked a further
report, and the reply given was the
same, with the difference that the
horse was a chestnut The sheik. how
ever, put his question a fourth time;
but upon being told by his son that
the pursuer was mounted on a bay.
he cried out: Then we are lost. for
there is no horse which 1t cannot over
take" His words proved to be true.
for in short time they were caught
up and captured.
