Here is a boys funny essay on hens
which have just come across: Hens
is curious animals. They don't have no
nose, nor no ears, nor no teeth. They
swallow their vittles whole, and chew it
up in their crops inside of 'em. The
outside Of a hens is generally put up into
pliers and feather busters. The inside
of hen is sometimes filles. with mar
bles and shirt buttons and sich. A hen
Is very much smaller than good many
other animals, but they'll dig up more
tomato plants than anything than amt

scarf her to death. Hens sometimes
make very fine spring chickens.

Mrs. Adams will also be a
witness for the state, and is
in Boise now.
There is absolutely no ex-
citement over the case in
Boise, and a number of re-
porters for the big eastern
dailies are talking of going
home. The court house
where the trial is being held
is seldom full, and it is not a
large room either.
A number of reporters went
out to the penitentiary Thurs.
day to see Orchard, who for
the first time since his arrest
consented to talk for publ
cation. They found him in
perfect condition physically,
and seemingly well prepared
for the ordeal ahead of him.
When asked as to whether
or not he had been promised
leniency in consideration of
his tesifying in the case he
replied:--
81 have nothing in partic-
ular to say but | might say
that anything l may have
said, | said of my own free
will and accord after taking
plenty of time to deliberate.
There was never any force or
coercion used at any time, or

There have never been any

ing one part coal and three parts ashes,

tanned.
The ashes Of anthracite burn as read

mixture will, upon being placed upon

action OF this compound is thus explain
ed: When an acqueous coalition OF salt
such as common salt, is mixed with
coal ashes, the result is chat mild lye
is formed which when mixed with any
combustible material. such as coal. and
upon the application of heat, gives off
oxygen gas, thus enabling rapid com bus-

The compound is now being used in
many large industrial plants here, and
it is asserted for it that it has reduced
the fuel item more than half.
Gilmore, who discovered the secret
and focused the attention upon the pos

his patent will protect him in his secret.

says. the steam engine will be rele-

At the mouths Of the coal mines great

The cumbrOus coal train will be q

of fuel now hauled to New York from
Pennsylvania, great copper conduits
will pipe the power direct to the me-

man is in a laboratory working on a
problem he comes across all kinds of
phenomena, and he can't take the time
10 trace these manifestations TO their
source, because that would interfere
with the task he is wrestling with. He
is compelled 10 put these things aside,
for if he is striving for the commercial
end of the business he must abandon
the ideal. unless that. too, will aid him
