st. Louis, May 16.-Judge Adams, of
the circuit court of the United States,

titioner, gave notice formally that two
appeals would be taken from the de.
',cision Of Judge Adams, one to the

CLOVER UPsETs STONE WALLS
A Result of Book Farming In Maine
Which the Old Timers Foresaw.

"This new style o. book farming
said Wildcat Perkin\, "is running
some of the best stone walls that werp
eve laid in Waldo county.
"You wouldn't think there was any
kind of natural connection between
double stone walls and clover, would
you? But I am prepared to prove that
there is, and that no man can raise
clover hay on his farm for three years
in succession without having his stone
walls tumble down and scatter them.

take ten men a month to rebuild .
mile of the old fencing.
1T all comes from what they call q
connecting link, and the woodchuck
link in this case is the w%oodchuck.
GAS soon as a w%oodchuck sees
clover growing right up close to q
stone wall, he doesn't have to go and
ask the neighbors if it is a favorable
locality for a woodchuck to start in
business, He goes to eating clover
and making his nest in the interior Of
the stone wall, and all is lovely until
some cur dog comes along and smells
che woodchuck in the wall, and begins
to talk about 1t in dog language so all
the neighborhood car hear.
"Of course, the boy who owns the
dog and the boy friends Of the boy
who owns the dog and the dogs be.
longing to the boy friends of the boy
who owns the dog 90 to see what the
trouble is, and in doing so discover
the woodchuck in the wall and pro
coed to pull the wall down and scatter
the stones all over the farm, so as to
get at the woodchuck and kill 1t. And
having seen the dogs fight with the
woodchuck until 1t was dead the
boys and the dogs have no more use
for the stone wall and leave it splayed
out upon the ground, Is If the building
Of stone walls did not cost money
and time and backache.
"And so I say" continued Wildcat
Perkins, "that no Maine farmer can
live as he should If he attempts ia
grow clover alongside of q double
stone wall. Nobody has ever been
able to change dog nature or boy ma,
ture, and nobody can aver hope to kill
OF the woodchucks.
"Then it is plain enough to every.
body that the clover or the stone walls
must go, and, considering how much
longer the stone walls have been here
II is my opinion that it Is up to the
clover to make the first move."-N. Y,

URGE RAPTIsTs TO GIVE.
Plea Made for one-Tenth Of Income
for Church.

Washington, May 1.-THE adoption
of resolutions in favor of the move
ment to ask the Baptists of the coun-
try to give one-tenth toward the ad-
vancement of the work of Christ and
urging the president to inquire into
the reasons why the Kongo question
has not been settled, were the fea-
lures of the fourth session of the
American Baptist Missionary Union
Thursday. More than 1000 delegates
were in attendance.
The action regarding the giving of
one-tenth of incomes followed a num-
Der of spirited addresses in advocacy
of a decided increase in the income
of the missionary union in order to
meet the pressing needs of the work
and to enable the union to enter fields
urgently inviting occupation.

MEERscHAuM in NEW MEXICO.
SUFFICIENT In Quantity to Break Turkish
Government Monopoly.

Because of the discovery of vast de.
posits of m"eerschaum in the noun
tains of New Mexico it is likely that
the monopoly of that mineral hereto
fore held by the Turkish government
will be broken and pipes of that ma
terial will be lessened in cost.
Until recently all the meerschaum
used in the commerce of the world was
produced from a mine in the plains of
Eskihi-sher, Anatoly, Turkey in Asia.
In those mines are employed 10000
men. The output of the mine was
owned by the Turkish government and
It kept the price up.
It Is said that enough meerschaum
has been discovered in Grant county,
New Mexico, to supply the worlds
needs.
There is a popular belief that meer'
schaum is petriied sea foam washed
up ages ago and solidiied by some
strange process of nature. Meerschaum
Is a mineral known to scientists as
"sepiolife." 1t is composed principally
of. silica and magnesium. 1t is found
in assures in the rock, where volcanic
action has forced it up to the surface
Meerschaum is used not only for
making tobacco pipes, but because o.
its unique properties of resisting a
high degree of heat and its ready alb
sorption of water, it is put to various
electrical and mechanical uses.
In the mines of New Mexico q solid
block of meerschaum weighing AZ
pounds was taken out. It was the
largest block Of meerschaum ever
mined.

have a far-reaching effect on the future

France and Spain intend to occupy the

This RESULTS from the announcement OF
the Moroccan government that II Is un-
safe 10 recruit the police from among the
Moors, and there Is a strong feeling that
the absolute anarchy reigning in Morocco
may mean that this occupation OF the
ports may be long drawn out and perhaps
last indefinitely. Moreover the continued
hostility of the fanatical Moors may cul-
inmate In a virtual military control Of the
Moroccan empire. This. howevAr. will de-
pend on the attitude of the Moors.
AdvtceS received here from Fee, under
date OF Sept 3. say that the sultan had
that day visited the tombs of the holy
men as well as the mosque Of Mulai Id
rish, which was interpreted as being a
certain sign that he intended to leave
