A FARMING VENTURE
Railroad President Hits on
Novel Method to Escape
From Cares.
MUD TURTLE FARM MT.'

Chicago, ILL.,, June GA mud turtle
farm, which will also be devoted to
the raising of mushrooms, gold fish
and guinea pigs, is the latest venture
of the head of one of the big Western
railroads. President H. |. Miller, of
the Chicago and Eastern Illinois, is
the men who has hit upon this novel
form of diversified farming as a relief
from business cares, and he intends
incidentally to show the farmers of
the grain belt that 200 acres of terra
pins and guinea pigs will pay bigger
dividends than even eighty cent corn.
The farm is located at Darlington. a
suburb of Chicago, and is a tract of
rolling timbered land. Numerous la
gOons and roads are being dug at var
iOuS points on the property and an
elaborate system of irrigating bitches
will be established. The guinea pig
yards will cover several acres and
will be the largest, it is expected, in
the country. The mushrooms will be
allowed to grow wild wherever they
in the woods. With the starting of
the farm comes TO light some interest
ing facts about a little known indus
try. 1t is estimated that over 10000
turtles are consumed annually in Chi
CagO restaurants. Some of them are
terrapin, but the greater part are mud
turtles, soft shell and "snappers." The
demand for mushrooms is enormous
and several hundred men and women
make a business during the summer
and fall of securing the woods along
the north shore" and gathering the
wild varieties that grow there. 9th
ers make living hunting frogs TO
supply the big hotels and the growing
of Belgian hares for market is now an
established industry.

WOMEN MAY YET
GET TO VOTE
Movement for Suffrage in
England Assumes Great
er Proportions.
GREAT MEETINGS PLANNED
SAID THAT THOSE TO BE HELD
THIS MONTH WILL DO MUCH TO
AID THE CAUSE ENGLISH
WOMAN'S VIEWS.
(By Lady Henry SomerseD

London, Eng, June 6.-When the
National Union of WOmen's Suffrage
societies marches along the South
Side of Hyde Park to Albert Hall
there TO hold great mass meeting
demonstrating to the entire world
coming irresistible, one of the most
momentOus events in the history OF
the organization will be in progress
This maSsmeeting, together with the
meeting to be held III Hyde Park, on
June p, is expected by many to be
the fOre-runncr of success. We want
now, and have long been striving for
suffrage by constitutional right, but
We have not gained a vote.
But the coming demonstrations will
cause the movement for suffrage be
ing carried on by England's women tC
be viewed in new light. There will
be representatives here from many
different countries and the govern
ment may be impressed that, where
women from all ports of the world
band together for a purpose, there is
a determination that justifies serious
consideration.
There is little doubt that the great
meetings to be held this month will
be the cause of suffrage movement re
ceiving renewed impetus in all civil
lized countries.

EXPERIMENTS IN BUGS
Little Creatures Brought to
California to Kill 9th
er Bugs.
COMPERE'S METHODS.

San Francisco June 6.-After sue
cessful search in the Far East for nat
ural enemies of pests that infest Amer
lean orchards George COmpere, ento-
mOlOgist has arrived here. He left
in Western Australia a parasite which
was reducing the ravages Of the fruit
fly to a noticeable degree. This para
site was discovered five years ago in
India, but previous attempts to intro
duce it into Australia had failed on
account Of the opposite seasons. BY
putting the bugs to sleep in India
with ice, COmpere got 100000 of them
alive to Australia, where he woke
them in the Australian winter, and
the ystarted to work as well as they
had in India. Three generations OF
these bugs had been born there be
fore COmpere left. He also took &c
Australia d parasite which swept away
the cabbage aphis.
Mr. COmpcre has brought to Califor
MIA parasite TO destroy the mealy
bug, a pest which causes greatly loss
to the orange grower. He discovered
1t in Japan.

born and R II. Ashton. general man
ager of the Chicago and Northwestern
railroad. have revealed the wonders of
this simple device. Mr.. Sanborn said
the least expense per mile per annum
for split-lOg dragging was $50, the
greatest little over So and the aver
age expense per mile for 5l4 miles a
little over So, | have lived along this
road all my life and never in 40 years
have | seen it freer from mud and
dust. despite the fact that during the
season we have experienced the eX-
tremes of weather conditions"
The testimony of Mr.. Ashton is
equally strong Learning that a
township in Iowa had been making an
investigation of the Split-lOg drag and
had been experimenting with it for a
wear on - miles of highway. he sent
an agent to secure information. 1t
was reported that although the town
board had paid the cost of making the
drags and of hiring two men to operate
them, the total expense for one year
averaged but $40 a mile, and the
roads were reported TO have been
like a race track" the greater portion
of the year.

Ever Chinese woman has her ears
pierced. When the child is a year old
the operation may be performed as
soon as convenient 1t is considered
quite an art First two little tassels Of
red cotton are prepared. with a blue
head on each and a long end hanging
loose. Then the childs ear is pinched
till 1t is numb. when a needle is run
through and the thread after it till the
tassel hangs over the lobe. where 1t is
secured. OF course the child often
makes considera bic objection to the
operation. and then If there is a kitten
anywhere near its ears are often
pierced to encourage the human victim.
This accounts for the frequence of cats
with holes and sits in their ears in the
Celestial empire.

1t Is Said That Indications
Point to Such an
Action.
GETS A FINE OFFER
ASSERTED ONE RENDERED TO
POPULAR PRINCIPAL OFFERS
GREATER OPPORTUNITIES
PROBABLE SUCCESSOR.

Although no announcement has
been made by the local school board
in regard to the reported intention of
Daniel R Ellabarger TO resign as prin-
cipal of the High school. members of
the faculty have declared there is ev-
cry indication to point to the inten-
ton of Prof. Ellabarger TO give up his
position. He is known to have receiV-
ed an offer of another position and it
Is said the new offer presents greater
opportunities than are 70 be obtained
in his present capacity. Professor
John r. Thompson and Prof. y. c.
HeirOnimus have been suggested as
probable successors to Prof. Ellabar-
ger in case he sewers his relation with
the school. Prof. Thompson has been
connected with the high school fac
ulty longer than any of the other male
members and he is pointed to as the
logical successor. Prof. Heironimus is
principal of the Garfield school
Prof. Thompson has been called up
on a number of times to act in the
capacity of principal during the alb
senco of Prof. labarger. He has
been very successful and a short time
ago while serving as principal had to
exercise his authority in a matter that
presented a perpleXing situation. He
disposed of the proposition in a sue
cessful manner and one that is regard
ed as being in the best interest Of the
school. Prof. Thompson is recognized
as an authority throughout the state
on scientific subjects.
During his term as principal at the
Garfield building Prof n. c. Heironi-
mus has elevated the standard of the
school and is responsible for the fact
that it now is recognized as the model
eighth grade school Of the state He
has endeavOred to develop the physi-
cal as we'll as mental qualifications
of the children and it is due to his
interest that Garfield was provided
with a gymnasium and the schools of
the city were given the public play
grounds on South Twenty-secOnd
street.

No Longer Does the True
Southern Gentry Mix
Drink as of Yore.
PROHIBITION THE CAUSE,
MEN GET NOW is LITTLE BEER
AND TIGER WHISKY" ACCORD
ING TO MISSISSIPPIAN.

Chicago, H., June 6.-The time hon
ored tradition that the Mint Julep still
holds its fragrant reign over the
"Kentucky ColOnels" and the South
ern gent'man" was rudely shattered
by a party Of fifty-fve MissisSippians
who recently stopped in Chicago on a
tour through the North given by the
Mississippi Bankers Association. Ac-
cOrdng to them the famous drink
which for so many years has tempted
the palates of the people in Dixie
Land is fast dying ont and bids fair
to- disappear. NO sub" said J. l..
Trusty, Of Water Valley Miss, we all
are sure forgettin how to mix that
grand old drink. Our State is mighty
nigh dry now and all we get down
yondah is a little beer and tiger whis-
key" The prohibition mOv-ment
makes ouah private sidebOards a
necessity. There are very few towns,
maybe ten in all. that have saloons,
He slipped lovingly at the brOwniSh
mixture and pushed the bright red
cherry below the surface where it
gIistened through the leaves of the
mint like cigar in the dark. You
all aren't quite SO fast as we are down
yOndah," continued Mr.. Trusty. I'VE
get up at five o'clock. Course we all
don't have much to do in the 'eVenin
Or what you call afternoon up
here. Oh yes, we still wear the old
John B. Stetson right smart down in
our state and we are nearly all for
Bryan too. 1t sure hurts to see the
old mint julep go, and the men nova
days don't even know how to mix it
it sure is most disCOmfiting.' And
Mr.. Trusty gave a gentle sigh of
resignation at the deterioration Of the
present generation who know not
how to combine the corn juice with
