contention involved in the Colorado
labor law, but a noon recess confer
ence of the united counsel for the de-
tense decided that it would be better
to refrain from doing So
Against sustained fire of objection
ana motlons to strike out and along a
record Photographed with exceptions
Oy the defense of the rulings of Judge
wood, the prosecution succeeded in
securing the admission of much evil
dence bearing on points of Orchards
tale. First there was a showing that
Steve Adams, stranded at Ogden in
June, 1903, on the way home from
California, where, it is alleged. he
went to kill Bradley, sent telegram
to Haywood at Denver for money.
Next 1t showed by the originals of
SIX drafts on New York banks, five o.
which were purchased at the First
National bank of Denver by Haywood,
hlmself, that during 1904, 1905 and
1906 money was frequently RENTED
by Haywood to l.. j. Simpkins. former
member of the executive board of the
Western Federation of Miners, who.
as Simmons" came to Caldwell with
Harry Orchard and assisted in the
1rst attempt to kill Steunenberg. The
last draft, sent in January, after the
murder, was cashed by Mrs. Simpkins
presumably after Simpkins had fled.
After that came the production of
the shattered and twisted fragments
OF the device by which the Vindicator
bomb was set off, and this led to an
extended inquiry by the defense into
conditions and events centering about
Cripple Greek during strike and mar
t1al law days. The defense tried to
SHOW that there had been unwarrant.
ed deportation of union miners. that
the stores had been looted, that
agents Of the mine owners had com.
mitted acts of violence and melted
others to violence, that union miners
had been fOgged and driven from
their homes, and that peace officers
controlled by the mineowners had EN-.
ployed deputies who were gun-f1ghterS
thugs and criminals.
Next the state completed the legal
history Of the Peabody bomb, first by
showing that it was dug out of the ice
in the Occur d'Alene river, then that
it was brought to Boise and taken on
to Denver, and lastly by identifying
its casing sin court by the plumber
who made it. The Peabody family
was present during this testimony
and watched the bomb cover every
moment that it was displayed before
the witness stand.
Then the state once more took uI
the general thread of Orchards story
and successfully offered the testi
mony of Miss Peabody to the incidents
related by Orchard where he ant
Steve Adams followed the Peabody
carriage home, the evidence of Gov
ernOr Peabody that he had seer
Orchard in Canon City and that he
had repaired his home as Orchard
testified, testimony showing that a.
various times in 1905 Haywood, Pet
tibone and Odchard were seen togeth
er, general confirmation by William
Vaughn Of the trip that Orchard anC
Vaughn made to Canon City, an(
lastly proof that Steve Adams was a
POcatellO in September, presumabl,
to meet and throw "Pettibone dope
at carload of non-union miners.

What Becomes Of Feathers ,

Feathers are used in making many useful
and ornamental articles and there are factories
in most of the large cities devoted exclusively
to utilizing them. Chicken feathers curled
with hot irons, are used for making feather
boas. Screens are made of peacock and turkey
feathers and busting brushes are mostly made
from the tail and wing feathers of turkeys.
White chicken and turkey wing and tail feath.
ers are dyed and used by milliners Imitation
wings, and even whole birds, are made from
small poultry feathers, colored and glued on
wire frames shaped to form the articles de-
sired. Pillows are turned ont by the thousand
Featherbone, for dress and corset stays, is
made from the stiff ribs of turkey feathers
There are three farms in the vicinity of Chi
cago where peacocks are largely raised for their
plumage and the feathers are all contracted for
in advance.

plete private apartments, similar to those in
which thousands of people in all our great

Seeds and waada

Unclean seed has more to do with the dis.
tribution of weeds than all other causes com.
bined. These are brought upon our farms
from garden and field seeds from foreign coun-
tries. Russian haxseed is responsible for the
introduction of the Russian thistle, which first
appeared upon single farm, and now covers
over 10000 square miles in the United States.
Alfalfa. beet, turnip and other field and garden
seeds imported from Europe are the potent
cause of the contamination of,our lands with
farm weeds. Nor are the farmers of this
country at all particular in saving their seeds.
fields containing weeds often being set aside
for seed crop, insuring the foulest seeds in
many cases. And then. in the purchase OF
seeds, the farmer is not careful to buy pure
seed only, but plants whatever some dealer
offers him. Until these methods are done
away with we must expect to have new, per-
nicious weeds constantly appearing among our
crOpS

ROSCOE J. STILES, of Anderson, Ind, at one
time president of Green River College, Ken
lucky, is at present conducting blacksmith
shop in his home city. He says: II would
rather be a strong, healthy blacksmith than a
tired, WORKOUT college president, with the
grave yawning for me-" His great-grand-
father, Ezra Stiles, was president of Yale
University, and was one of the most noted
scholars of his day. But, after ALL there must
be division of labor. The world would not
Jog along well if every professor gave up learn
ing to make horseshoe. Every one cannot
be farmer, but good many poor professional
men should be. It is aQuestion ofability that
should determine cslling. Perhaps Professor
Stiles found out he was better blacksmith
than college president. If such is the case
he has chosen a wise course, but should not
brag about it. His desire for health at ths
expense of not enlightening the yonng intel
lect is not heroic unselfshness.

The HOUSE of Representatives has passed
the service pension bill, and the signature of
who was l6 when the civil war began, or 20 at
its close in 1865. is now 90, the age at which a
pension of Sl2 month is allowed. to be in
creased to SIS month at 20 and $50 a month
at IS. Pensions heretofore allowed at lower
rate will be increased to these figures, but if
larger will not be reduced. The new system
practically applies now to all surviving Union
soldiers in the Civil War, and age alone gives
a claim to the pension. One of the wise pro-
visions of the new act is that the soldier him
self can directly obtain the allowance due with
out the assistance of agents.

In HIS charge to the grand jury last Monday
Judge Keedy, of Hagerstown, laid special
stress on the alleged violations of the law for
bidding the sale of cigarettes to boys. He in
structed the jury to inquire diligently into the
matter, as he regarded it of great Importance.
He said the smoking of cigarettes by young
boys, who became saturated with nicotine,
was just as bad as drinking whisky, as the
nicotine makes them physical and mental
wrecks. If dealers are violating the law, the
court said, he hoped the grand jury would in
quire into the violation. He suggested that a
member of the local bar, who had been inter
viewed and charged that dealers were openly
violating the law, might be able to give the
jurors some information on the subject.
