THE MURDERER UNAAsKED.

Above are the fearful jaws and
serpent fangs that cut the throats
Of eighty chickens In one night. The
skin is drawn back TO unmask the
murderous killing weapons and to dis
play the intricate network of muscles
that work the powerful jaws, which
make the weasel the most dreaded
enemy of the poultry keeper. Though
he weighs from FIVE to eight ounces
and is from six to ten inches in length,
yet this little sausage shaped creature
is much feared and formidable. He has
been known to kill the eagle and attack
five prong buck.
On Jan. II last a miner was ter
Eibly lacerated and bitten by a weasel
at Bear Valley shaft, Shamokin, Pa.
In the darkness the weasel seemed
master, but miners, hearing the cries
Of distress, rescued their companion
and killed the weasel with drills and
Bhovels. This animal has been known
to kill six full grown hens, twenty tur-
keys and eighty chickens in three
nights. His victims ara not disfgured.
He bleeds rabbit between the eye and
ear, but has been known to chase one
into stone fence and open an artery
in the hind leg.
He will clean the rats and mice out
Of a barn and bleed them the same
way.
He bites old chickens in the arteries
Of the neck close to the head Young
chickens, pigeons and wild birds are
caught back of the neck and sucked
dry. If wounded, he will suicide by
sucking his own blood.
A hunter followed a weasel for
twenty-five miles, the little animal
stopping to kill only eight rabbits dur
ing the race At times he would dis
appear and travel under the snow for
fifty feet In this way he kills many
quail that seek shelter under wind
falls, the farmers in the spring re-
porting them frozen by the hard winter
weather.
In one night hunter trapped dark
brown, light red and white weasel. The
most common color is brown. Weasels
are dark and light brown, dark and
light red, maltese and white. Maltese
are rare. The weasel wears white in
winter. On the snow he can hardly

SETTING A HEN.

Test her first with doorknobs and
corncobs. If her enthusiasm increases,
arrange a roomy nest, so she may
turn and leave and return without
breaking the eggs. Underlay the oat
straw with tobacco stems and dust
the hen with louise powder two days
before you give her eggs and redust
the fifteenth day.
Hint.-A hen will not eat at once after
busting and will soil the eggs If put
right back on the nest. Set her in
secluded spot and you will get good
hatch IL you have a good hen, good
eggs and you are good fellow to
tend her.
Bill Of Fare Whole corn, grit, wa
ter, dust box; no green food, meat
scrap nor mash. If you are faithful, 1t
will not be twins nor triplets, but on
the twenty-frst day she will serve a
whole family Of chicklets on the half

The weasel as sneak thief and
softly stealing assassin is beyond de-
scription.
Silently gliding like serpent, he
slips through an inch opening, bounds
on his harmless victim, sucks its blood
and wantonly cuts the throat Of every
fowl. The beautiful thrush. nesting its
young or on leafy branch caroling to
Its Maker, is suddenly seized and its
trilling throat pierced by the fangs of
the murderer.
His technical name, putorius, from
'putor," ''bad SMELL" Is appropriate,

SIGN OF A BEATEN MAN.
Runner Who Looks Behind Almost
Sure to Lose the Race.

Sure to Lose the Race. /,
There are many more good distance
runners now than in my days." said an
old time champion after watching a
three mile scratch race at the New
York Athletic club games. But the
habits Of the runners have not changed
any, for l noticed one little trick in
the race that bore the significance that
used to attach TO 1t.
ITO the casual onlooker there was
nothing to choose between the two
leaders when they were beginning the
last quarter of a mile. Right from the
crack Of the pistol they were running
almost stride for stride with the low,
graceful easy action Of the real long
distance runner.
Neither had called into use the re.
serve power which must be utilized In
the final sprint for victory when they
turned into the stretch for the final
lap. Then one Of them slightly turned
his head to see where the third man
was.
"'That ran Is beaten was the
thought which occurred to me at once,
and it proved tine, as always, for when
the dash for the finish began he allow
ed his rival TO get lead Of five yards
before going after him In earnest pur-
suit.
"From that point to the finish there
was no perceptible difference in the
speed Of the men, but the man who
had turned his head to make sure that
he would get second place, instead Of
bending every energy to win, of course
landed where his thoughts placed
him."-New York SUN.

secretarv coburn,s Report.

The greatest ever, is the way F. D.
Coburn characterizeS the agricultural
year OF 1908 in Kansas. The secre-
tary of the state board Of agriculture
issued the final report of the depart
ment for the year. While the total
yields of farm products have not been
as high as in some years, the Kansas
farmers will have 81, ,224 more to
spend this year than in any previous
IL months in the states history. Corn
is still king in the Sunf1ower state
with a crop of $50, 640,516 bushels,
valued at S2,642,6 SAP. Animals sold
for slaughter constitute the next most
valuable product for the year with a
value of $67,705,158. Next comes
wheat-76, sos, 922 bushels of it, worth
$63 1885, JAG. The Kansas hen is still
on the job, with $9,306,651 to her
credit for the IL months. OF all
classes of farm products there were
good yields and top notch prices. The
following interesting facts are Cleaned
from the report:
The total yield of corn was 50,04O,-
SIG bushels from 7,O57,535 acres, and,
appraised at it's home value by those
who grew it, was worth $S2,642, 461.
Although 18th in aggregate yield, it
is first in value
It is the most valuable wheat crop
ever produced by Kansas and rated
worth $7,O97,634 more than that of
1907, which ranks second. The aver
age value a bushel this year was
above SO cents, the highest since 1881.
The field crops were worth more
than "A per cent more than those of
the years of 1898 and 1894 combined,
and the total value of all farm pro-
ducts is 60 per cent greater than the
average for the 20 years ending with
1907.

Latest Kansas Events.
Kansas Food Must Be Pure.

Last June the state board of health
issued an order to the pure food de-
partment that the educational part of
the work had gone far enough and
that every merchant, packer, manu-
facturer and jobber knew the require
ments of the pure food law. There
fore It was ordered that the depart
ment should not be lenient toward of
tenders any longer, but should begin
prosecutions as soon as violations of
the law were found. Acting under
these orders the pure food inspectors
have brought about 80 cases for al
legged violations of the pure food law.
OF these, 81 have been tried and the
defendants fined for violations of vari-
Gus sections of the law. There are
now % cases pending. Three cases
have been appealed to higher courts,
but in most instances the violators
pleaded guilty and paid their fines

CALLER LEFT IN A HUFF.
innocent Thought of Business Man
That Gave Serious Offense.

Two business men had been talking
good naturally the other day. Their
conversation had reviewed a number of
things, and a remark made by the pro-
prietor as his caller was leaving
brought up the subject of prosperity
in rather awkward way.
Business with me has been a little
dull of late. I've had only a few call
ers," he remarked.
The friend smilingly rejoined:
You'll have enough of them in a
short time-prosperity's coming right
along. Why" he added, emphaticalIy,
''the next time drop around, instead
of being able to chat with you for half
an hour, theren be so many people
ahead Of me that it'll take me two
hours to get to you-maybe I can't
see you at ALL"
Il hope so,' rejoined the proprietor,
cheering up over the prospects of re-
newed business activity.
His caller literally "stormed'' out of
the office, leaving his erstwhile host
in a state OF bewilderment as to what
had happened.

Gen Hugh Cameron Dead.

Gen. Hugh Cameron, known as the
Kansas Hermit died of apoplexy
in a Topeka hospital. He went from
Lawrence to attend the funeral of A.
H. Case, an old friend. Gen. Cameron
was 50 years old at the time of his
death. He was born at Saratoga
Springs, n. Y, October %, 1926. He
went to Washington, D. c., shortly
after the election of Zachery Taylor
as president. There he became &C
quainted with Webster, Clay, Doug
las and other eminent statesmen of
the day. He moved to his hermitage
near Lawrence in 1854. Before that
time he was professor of mathematics
in Rittenhouse academy, Washing
ton. Then for a time he was clerk
in the treasury department. His
health failed and he moved to Kansas
in time to be identified with the free
state struggle. He located his claim
on the Kansas river few miles west
Of Lawrence. He laid the foundation
for a house The rock he quarried by
himself The framework of the house
was made of walnut lumber. Years
ago enemies of the hermit fred the
house and it was totally destroyed.
Since then he lived under thatch OF
limbs and boughs on his claim or in
a crude shed under a tree in an out
of-the-way place in Lawrence. His
appearance was all his title of hermit
implied. His white hair and beard
unkept and long, and a long stocking
cap, served to identify him every
where. Gen. Cameron made several
pilgrimages of political nature. One
of the best remembered of those was
two years ago this winter when he
| went to Albuquerque, n. M, to hunt
up Edmund G. Ross bearing a letter
of forgiveness" for the vote Ross cast
as senator from Kansas when Andrew
Johnson's Impeachment trial was in
progress. Ross was the last man to
vote and his vote saved Johnson. The
| feeling against him has since died out
and, at Gen. Cameron's request, the
Kansas legislature officially 'forgave'
the vote.

INvALID's SAD PLIGHT.

cura Proved Successful.


FAbout four years ago l had very
severe attack OF infiammatory rheuma-
tism. My skin peeled, and the high
fever played havoc with my hair,
which came out in punches. I also
had three large bed sores on my back.
I did not gain very rapidly, and my
appetite was very poor. tried many
sure cures but they were of little
help, and until I tried Cuticura Re
solvent had had no real relief. Then
my complexion cleared and soon felt
better. The bed sores went very soon
after a few applications of Cuticura
Ointment, and when used Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment for my hair
it began to regain its former glossy ap-
pearance. Mrs. Lavina ]. Henderson,
