PlTTsBURGER VICTIM OF FRAUD.
Invests $500 in Faro Game and Has
Dealer Arrested.

New York, Aug. ia story of
faro game at high stakes in luxuri-
ously furnished private dwelling in the
fashionable section of the upper West
side was disclosed Thursday at the
hearing of Martin Phillips, who was
arrested, charged with larceny. Phil
lips was arraigned in the West side
court and was held in $500 for trial.
Neville r. Monkey, formerly of Pitts.
burg. Pa. who gave his present ad-
dress as this city, was the complain
ant, alleging that he lost $500 in faro
game dealt by Phillips. In his story
to the court, Monkey said he came to
New York to work "a system" with
Phillips. Monkey said Phillips wrote
to him saying they could make $4,000
out of Phillips employer. Moxley, 1t
was alleged, was to put the necessary
money and to get 60 per cent. of the pro-
ceeds, the remaining 40 per cent to go
to Phillips. Monkey said he came to
this city with 5000, to which Phillips
added $500, saying that much was
needed to work the System" When
the magistrate asked Moxley If he did
not know the arrangement he had en-
tered into was illegal, Monkey hesita
ted and he was severely lectured by
the court for his part in the matter.

Simple Continuance Which Will Make

have used simple continuance
for measuring my fields. 1t is much
better than surveyors chain or tape
line, because it can be used by one
person. 1t is made of small hub
and spokes little larger than lath,
says writer in Farm and Home.
Make them of such size that one revo-
luton measures exactly rod. This
is done by having each spoke 32h
inches long.
The hub, b, is made of two cir
cular pieces of board one inch thick
and six inches in diameter bolted face
to face together, and holding the
spokes firmly in the grooves previously
cut. There should be eight spaces be.
tween the points, as there are eight
spokes, and at the end they should be
24A inches apart. The points of the
spokes must not be sharp, or they will
sink into soft ground, and the dis
lance will not be accurate. Paint one
spoke a different color from the rest,
so it may be easily counted every time
it comes around. Push the wheel

HANDLING OF GRAIN.
Hints by a Farmer Who Thinks no
Can Improve on Present Methods.

Compared with former years, thresh.
ing is an easy matter. The wind
stacker and the self-feeder have great
ly reduced the size of the average
threshing gang. The weigher and
sacker are each doing noble work. Yet,
with all these advantages at hand.
not more than half of us farmers
make such use of them that our grain
is handled in the most economical
manner possible, declares farmer In
Home and Farm.
Threshing directly from the field Is
often great time-saver, as 1t saves
the time used in moving away the
sheaves. But it is in caring for the
grain as it comes from the thresher
where most of us lose time. Ordl-
narily it is sacked and carried to the
granary, requiring five or six men. by
using an elevator on the separator,
and two tight wagon boxes, one man
can easily care for the same amount
Of grain. If no elevator is at hand,
1t takes but two men. Drive the
wagon alongside the machine and lift
the grain into the box. One man can
do this while the second unloads.
In hauling to market large box
holding 60 or 20 bushels Is especially
valuable. More grain can be hauled
and easier, without the expense or
bother of sacks, which are mighty un-
handy. A box with faring sides, hold
ing 100 bushels of oats, was made for
US at a cost of SIG.

TAINTED FROM SHEER JOY.
Girl Loses Consciousness When Jury
Frees Her.

Wheeling, w. va.--When Lila Zane
Cook, the 17-year-old girl on trial for
completely in the murder Of her 16-
year.old sweetheart, Charles Bennett.
of New Kensington, Pa, heard the
verdict of the jury freeing her, she ut
tered a cry: Thank Cod" and fell
into a swoon and was unconscious two
hours. She was bruised III the semi
panic that followed the verdict.
Lawyer Handlan for the defense ex.
planned that the alleged confession Sc.
cured from the girl in Jail by Agnes
Holmes, the Pittsburg detective. was
obtained under promise that she would
be freed. The jury was out four hours.
Schuck and Handlan, the opposing
lawyers, are opponents for district
attorney, and when the crowd in the
courtroom heard the verdict they
chered so Justify for Handland that
Is deputy sheriffs had to use force
to quell the disturbance.
Joe White another alleged accom-
plice, will be tried at the next term of
court.
Charles Cook, husband of the girl,
made a complete confession a few
months ago, stating that the trio killed
young Bennett for his money, on which
he and the Zane girl were married
and removed to Detroit. The woman
deserted Cook and the latter made the
confession to get even.
Cook is serving a life sentence for
the crime
