Only One Caller.

In the three weeks that the Armenians
occupied the room they had only one caller
an Armenian priest. Three times he spent
the night in the house He was allowed to
sleep on a couch in a little room near that
of his friends.
Mrs. Sherrer never learned his name
But at the restaurant where Moradian
worked the priest was known as Father
Caspar BY that name he was known to
many other Armenians in "Helrs Kitchen"
He was looked upon as man of eccen-
tricty. but for all that was we'll liked by
the mothers in the Armenian colony. He
a welcome guest at the restaurant, and
was never allowed to pay there for what he
ate. Always when he ate there he kept
the little black leather Satchel between his
knees. He guarded it though it con-
tanned something of value Many times the
other patrons of the restaurant commented
on the way the priest guarded the leather
bag. The police learned this yesterday in
questioning the men who were taken to the
police station. 1t was on these visits to the
restaurant that the priest became friendly
with MOradian.
On Monday last he slept in the 37th street
house at the invitation of Moradian and
Sakisean, ON Wednesday morning he was
last seen there alive. According to the
story told by Mrs. Sherrer and her husband,
the trunk in which the body was found ar
rived at the house about o'clock in the
afternoon on Wednesday last Moradian
left early that morning, but returned at 8
o'clock accompanied by the priest When
Mrs. Sherrer went to make up the bod the
priest and Moradian were in Moradan's
room They went out together, and that
was the last time Mrs. Sherrer saw. the
priest alive

Arrival Of the Trunk.

Last Wednesday, the day the murder was
committed the trunk was taken into the
house. 1t IS supposed to have been filed
with papers, all written in Armenian, and
which were yesterday found lying in pile
beside the trunk in which the body was.
These are now being translated by an Ar
menian interpreter with the idea that they
might shed some light upon the supposed
connection of the murder with a plot to
overthrow the King OF Servia and put
pretcnder on the throne.
Little IS known of the two Armenians
Moradian and Sakisean whom the police
are now seeking. Three weeks ago they
went to the 3Ith street house and asked for
room. Mrs Henry Sherrer. who owns the
house, a fVe-story structure, rented them
the front room on the third floor for 81
week, payable in advance. Mrs. Sherrer
knew the elder of the two men only as
John, but she supposed he a brother
of Sarkisean. John" told her that he had
an interest in an Armenian restaurant at
457 West 10th street. Sarkisear said he
was a painter. They We're in their room but
little throughout the day. Moradian usu-
ally left the house each morning at 5
o'clock, Sarlisean usually left at I. They
both took their meals at the restaurant at
4JI West 10th street

Scene of Crime the Notorious Hell's
Kitchen in New York-Three
Men Suspected.

NEW YORK, May 27.-The body Of an
Armenian priest, supposed to be Father Cas-
par wanderer, who for several months
has been familiar figure in the Armenian
colony in this city, was found yesterday
damned into trunk on the third floor Of
the house at 1873 West 9th street, in the
district long known as "Helrs Kitchen"
a leather strap bound the priests head
down between his knees, and several bones
Were broken, apparently by his murderers
in their efforts to cram the body into the
trunk. money bag the priest had worn
about his neck had been rifed and small
black leather satchel he usually carried was
gone
Two Armenians. supposed to be John
Moradfan and Paul Sakisean. or Sarkis,
who had rented the room on the third floor
of the 37th street house three weeks ago,
have disappeared, and the police are looking
for them.
The murder is one of the most dramatic
the New York police have been called upon
to unravel in many years. There Is
strong suspicion that the crime may be
the result of a political plot In which
pretender to the Servian throne has fig
ured. That the deed was carefully plan
ned is evident from the facts which came
out in the police investigation. Only the
demand of the woman who kept the house
for rent that was due spoiled the carrying
out OF what was apparently the intention to
cart away the trunk with the body in it
and sink 1t in the river or bury it in some
obscure spot outside the city.
dozen Armenians, who live in the neigh
borhood where' the crime was committed,
were taken to the West 37th street police
station yesterday afternoon. and from them
some of the events prior to and after the
murder were learned. Already 1t Is known
that the plot to murder the priest was laid
several hours, PERHAPS several days, before
the crime was committed. 1t has come to
light that for three days the body lay
there in the trunk after the tenants had
fed. And all that time the woman who
kept the house thought that it contained
clothing of value sufficient to cover the
board bill

Ridge mountains in Washington coun-
ty, Md. The most COMMON and uni
form grades shipped from this section
run about forty-fve melons to the
crate, the crates measuring IL by II by

thirty to the crate. Another grade
runs forty-eight to fifty to the crate
and, as a rule, are not packed uni
formly. Still another grade packs from
seventy to seventy-1ve melons to the
crate. In the Rocky Ford district of
Colorado a good crop is estimated at
100 to $50 crates to the acre, says New
England Homestead. 1t is not uncom-
mon to find cantaloupes grown in Cali
fornia wrapped in tissue paper and
sold in the New York market at GER

Farmers who produce high grade mel
ons are reasonably sure of good prices

these melons is becoming more popu-

ALFALFA.
Reducing Weeds to tho Minimum 10 an
Important Point.

Reducing Weeds to tho Minimum 10 an
Important Point.
e. G. Cameron of Pike county, Mo-,
Is credited by an exchange with the
following suggestions on growing al
falfa.
"After several years experimental
ton, with both success and failure, l
unhesitatingly advise fall seeding.
While I know of no plant that eXcels
alfalfa in vigor Of growth after it is
once established, it is extremely timid
about it's association with other plants
in it's early life. Weeds and foxtail
are it's worst foes, and how to avoid
them or to reduce them to the mini
mum is the problem before the alfalfa
grower. 1t is with this in view that l
advise the fall seeding. To my mind
the piece selected for seeding down
next fall should be upland naturally
well drained and fertile.
Preparation of Ground.
eff the piece selected is land in
wheat I should top dress it during
winter with all the stable manure l
could possibly get on it-not in great
hunks, but well distributed. After the
wheat comes off in June 1 should disk
it twice, once each way. After the
first shower the weeds will begin to
appear, then disk again. Keep this
up until about Sept. l. Don't pillow
under any circumstances, but kill
all the weed growth by surface cult
walton. All this sounds like work, and
it is work, but the best remunerated
work a farmer ever did. About Sept.
1, if there be moisture enough for
termination, SOW twenty pounds of
seed per acre. Use a w~heelbarrow
seeder and SOW ten pounds each way.
This covers 'skips' and gives a better
distribution of the seeds. Then slant
your harrow teeth and cover by going
over the field at least twice"

There was a time when undertakers
carried only shrouds in stock, but In
this age of luxury the big concerns

Such materials as henrietta, pongee,

3Givinu Names. to Farms.

"A new law passed by the Missouri
legislature encourages the naming Of
farms and protects the use of names
adopted. It provides that upon the
payment Of a fee Of 81 to the clerk Of

county may secure a certificate setting
forth the name and location of the
farm and the namesof the owner, and
that when such name is properly reg
