Door farm at McClelland, in connection
with the experimental station established
at the farm last spring, was an unqualified
success. 1t is estimated that at least 800

ment in corn growing. the results of which
were ably demonstrated and explained by
r. X. Bliss and A. r. Nelson, experts from
the State Agricultural college at Ames, It

All in a PitIabIe Plight from the Lac

All in a PitiRbIe Plight from the Lack
of Food,
Mrs. Catherine MCGEE, who disappeared
from her home at 221S Fifth avenue, with
her five small children Thursday, when
she learned she was to be taken before the
commissioners for examination as to her
sanity. was found on Broadway yesterday
noon in company with her children. When
taken to police headquarters the woman
and children were found to be in a pitiable
plight n evidently suffering from lack
OF food. -.
The five children, whose ages range from
to Is years, were taken by Truant Off
Ger Herner TO the Associated Charities
creche, where they will be cared for until
some other disposition Of them is made
by the court. Mrs. MCGEE was placed in
st. Demands hospital, the commissioner
having adjudged her insane. Although the
woman's actions for some time past salts
fled the commissioners that she was not
mentally responsible, she appeared per-
fectly rational yesterday. She said-that she
and the children had returned TO their
home Wednesday night and had spent the
night there. The parting between the
mother and her little ones was pitiable in
the extreme. The children sobbed as II
their hearts would break and two older
ones declared between their sobs that their
mother was not insane and that she ought
not to be taken from them.

RALEIGH, n. c., July 3.-Shortly
afternoon TO-DAY Police Justice Badger
released from custody Turner Smith,
the young white man held the past
three days for shooting to death NJ. B.
Stultz. engineer on the Seaboard Air
Line, while, as Smith and members of
his family aIlege, stultz IF he was the
man shot by Smith was peepng
through the blinds into the bed room
Il of his sisters.
There We're ten witnesses examined
this afternoon, and their testimony
was practically identical with the evil
dence taken the past two days by Cor
oner Separks and his jury, who yes
terday afternoon rendered a verdict
that the EEing ,of Stultz by Smith
was justifia!.e, in the court with the
prisoner to-day, We're his mother and
-four sisters. along with a great COM
pany of friends from the neighbour
hood,
First there was the testimony OF the
two physicians who We're summoned
to Stultz when he rushed into the
rcpndhouse ,nortally wounded. They
told of the wounds and of having tried
in vain to induce Stultz to make some
statement as to how he was shot be-
fore he died.
James Horton, call boy at the sta
d ton, heard the shooting and saw the
prisoner. Turner Smith, in front of his
house telling of having shot at some
man trying to get into the house. He
said NE had waited for the man to
return and got him.
James Hearn, next door neighbor to
Smith, heard the shots and heard some
man run away passing out between
his home and the Smith residence.
r. H. Hester told of having spoken
to Stultz Just a short while before
he was shot, at the roundhouse. He
heard him tell his fireman he would
be back in a few minutes, and then
walked off toward the eating house
the same direction as the Smith resi-
dence. He had taken a revolver from
his grip before starting.
Other witnesses developed no new
testimony.
II was at the conclusion of this evil
dence that Justice Badger made the
order releasing Turner Smith from
custody.
1T is understood that the investiga
Il tlon of the affair viii continue. as
friends OF Engineer Stultz are anxious
s#if possible. to relieve the dead man OF

Workings Of a Press
Clipping Bureau

n has come to be a necessity that
any one whose name ever appears IN
a newspaper must be subscriber to-
press clippings. still there are few who
understand anything about the work.
lngs OF such bureau. People take
oress clippings because In no other way
can they learn how many papers
Throughout the country print stores
concerning them. They must have
bureau Ia read every paper published.
Then every line concerning them
reaches their hands.
There are some forty press clipping
bureaus in the United states. but be-
fore becoming a subscriber one should
understand Just what bureau to deal
with. This is necessary, because in or
der to read 5000 different publications
q bureau must have large area OF
working space and employ many peo-
Pile. Some bureaus work IN one room
with three and four workers. The
largest bureau in the world. that Is the
Burrelle Press Clipping Bureau in New
York. reads every publication issued,
has 1000 square feet OF space. and has
100 workers.
There are dozens OF departments In
the Burrelle Bureau. but the one spec
tacular feature is the. work Of those
who actually read the papers. These
readers sit before an lncllneQ 5Qesk ON
which the paper rests. The reader
scans the column. her pencil following
the lines with lightning.like rapidity.
Tho moment she sees the name Of q
client. down goes the pencil and
mark is nut under the name. The mar
yelous part is. that the reader must
bear in mind something like 10000
names. It Is a feat Of memory that all
most passes human understanding, and
Il, is done day in and day out, Tho
readers mind Is kept active on those
subjects In q daily school Of instruc-
