WONDERFUL WHEAT
Alaska Said to Yield 200 Times
the Amount SOwn.

Halsey n. Rhoads. special field agent.
Bureau OF Statistics. Department Of Agri-
culture. whose headquarters are in Dem
YER. dropped in upon the Enterprise on
Monday and left US few s.alks Of the
wonderful Alaska wheat. Of which con-
ierable is lately being heard. While
travelling through Idaho last year Mr.
Rhoads was told Of man who had rais-
ed 200 bushels Of wheat per acre and
got into communication with him and
managed to procure small quantity at
an expense Of SIS per pound. He sent
some to the Agricultural Department at
Washington and the Colorado Agrieul-
tural College and also planted some 70
experimental purposes and Is fully con-
vineed that it will prove veritable gold
mine to the farmer. Here is what Mr..
Adams. the diseoverer Of this wonderful
wheat, has to say about it:
Some four years ago ! procured one
head Of wheat in Alaska, with which
have been experimenting. sowed the
one head in the fall Of 1904 and in the
summer Of 1905 | harvested POUNDS Of
wheat Sowed the z pounds in the
spring Of 1906 and harvested l545
pounds Of wheat. Sowed the l545
pounds IN the fall Of 1906 but the CROP
Of 1907 was mostly destroyed by heavy
snow in the winter and a hail storm in
July. but saved enough to sow several
hundred acres in the fall OF 1907 and
spring Of 1903. have raised 200. times
the amount Of seed sown every crop moi
destroyed by storms"
Mr.. Rhoads has the agency for the
sale Of limited quantity of this wheat
in Colorado and the Enterprise has agreed
to act as distributing agent to the far
mers Of this section.
The price Of this big money maker !:
SIS bushel. and but one bushel will b
sold to any one farmer. All orders mus
be in by Sept. /, SO don't delay.

Vermont Woman Held In BoS-

WIFE OF SENATOR BARNEY
When Arrested She Gave name Of Anna

She Is Clara L. Barney Of
Gwanton, VT

Boston, Nov. 25.-A woman who Is
held here under the charge of shoplft-
ing first gave her name as Anna Smith,
but later stated that she was Mrs. Clara
L. Barney Of Swanton, VT, wife of
Senator Milo Barney of Franklin county
in the Vermont legislature. She was ar.
rested yesterday and arraigned before
Judge Murray ON four counts. Her case
was continued until Friday morning to
give time for her husband TO reach Bos-
ton. The woman is now in the Charles
street Jail.
She came to Boston, several weeks ago,
so she said. She has been stopping at
one of the leading hotels 'of the city and
by her manner and her dress gave indi-
cations OF being woman of means. Her
clothes were of the latest cut. She stat
ed that the use of drugs is responsible
for her position now. The woman is 30
years old.
Senator Barney, when notified OF the
arrest, was very much broken up over
the affair, but notified his informant
that he would leave at once for Boston,
being firm in his conviction that he could
secure her release. Friends OF Mrs Bar.
ney think that she must be mentally
irresponsible because of the use of drugs.
In her home town she is very much re.
spected. When she was searched here
it was found that she had $ll on her
person.

So Win TillOtson Said After

Beecher Falls Man Had Told His Land

Light Of 1t.

Beecher Falls, Nov. 25.-Win Tillot.
son committed suicide yesterday by
shooting himself at the home Of Mrs.
Joseph Schoppe, where he lived. Mr..
Tillotson had been using intoxicating
liquors to some extent for several days,
and after going to bed in the evening
called Mrs. Schoppe to the room and
requesting her TO get him drink,
which he said was in his overcoat pock-
ct. She handed him bottle she found
in his pocket and he drank nearly two.
thirds of pint of whiskey, which wos
not of the best quality.
Later he called her to the room and
requested her TO sit down that he
might talk with her. She told him she
had some work TO do, and as it was
getting late she must finish il. He told
her she probably would never see him
alive again, but she assured him that
he was not going to die, and left the
room.
After finishing her work she went up.
stairs and thought nothing more about
the matter until she heard the report
of the revolver, which she first thought
was the explosion of lamp, never
thinking that Mr.. Tillotson intended
to take his own life. or that he pos.
sessed revolver. When she went to
his room he told her ne had shot him
self; when she asked him where the re-
volyer was, he replied ION the stand"
but it was found in the bed.
He said he supposed he pointed IL
towards his heart with the intention Of
killing himself, as he had lived long
enough and had nothing to live for. The
bullet passed through him and missed
his heart by small margin. He lived
about one honr after the shot was fired
Mr.. Tillotson is survived by three
brothers, Ben, Ernest and Elmer of
Beeeher Falls; three sisters, Mrs. A. J..
Heath OF Beecher Falls, Mrs. Dieker-
man of johnson, and Mrs. Sartwell of
Pasadena, CAL; his mother, who lives

MRS. SAMPSON UNDER ARREST.
She Is Accused Of Killing Husband, the
Nephew of the Late Admiral
Sampson.

Rochester. n. Y, Nov. 25.--Mrs. Geor-
gianna Sampson, widow of the late
Harry Sampson of Palmyra, who died
on Nov. ! as the result Of a gunshot
wound, was yesterday formally accused
of the murder OF her husband by the
district attorney Of Wayne county and
placed under arrest. This action was the
elimination of an inquiry into the cir.
eumstanees surrounding the death Of
Sampson, who was nephew of the late
Admiral Sampson, who commanded the
American fleet at the battle of San.
tiago
The death Of Harry Sampson took
place on the Allyn farm, located between
Palmyra and Macedon, in Wayne county.
1t was at first believed that Sampson
took his own life, but following his death
stories were circulated which discredited
that theory. There were reports OF fre.
quent quarrels between Sampson and his
wife, and finally the coroner of Wayne
county decided upon rigid investiga.
tion.
The first evidence that Sampson might
have been the victim of foul play was
not forthcoming until DR.. Albert Hamil.
ton, gunshot expert, after examining
the wound in SIMPSONS body, testified
positively that the dead man could not
have fired the shot which resulted in his
death.
1t came out at the inquest that Samp-
son, on the Saturday before his death,
had discovered letter written to his
wife by a man outside Of the family,
which had been the cause of bitter
quarrel Mrs. Sampson's mother testified
that she did not uphold her daughter
in the matter, and had told her that the
letter was not a proper one for her TO
receive or keep II was also testified at
the inquest that Sampson had package
OF cheese in his hand when he fell dead
in the farmhouse, which was held to
preclude the idea that he was contem-
plating suicide at the time or could have
fired the shot from the rifle that killed
him.
At the resumption of the inquest at
Macedon yesterday morning, District At
torney Gilbert of Wayne county told
Mrs. Sampson that she could make a
statement if she so desired, but that
anything she said would be used against
her. It was the opinion of the coroner
and himself, he said, that Harry Samp-
son did not commit suicide, but that he
had come to his death at her hands.
and that she would be accused of the
crime.
Mrs. Sampson replied that on advice
Of counsel she would not make state
ment Mrs. Sampson was then placed
under arrest, formally charged with the
murder of her husband by Sheriff Collins
and placed in the custody of the sher-
ifs daughter, Teresa, and taken to the
'ounty Jail at Lyons.

90 COWS KILLED.
In Herd Of 100 Tested Fox Tuberculo.
sis at Rutland.

Rutland, Nov. Following a test
which revealed the existence Of tuber-
cuiosis in herd Of 100 cattle owned
by Temple Bros. Of this city, 90 jerseys
have been condemned and are being
killed. This herd, OF which s5 animals
arc registered, was the result of more
than II years of careful breeding from
scme of the best stock that could be
obtained.
The test began last Thursday, at the
request Of the owners, and showed that
all but 80 of the cattle were diseased.
The tests were made by DR. Robert
Weir, representing the state cattle
commissioners. Among the animals
condemned were four bulls, one OF which
was valued at $500
As soon as The test was begun the
owners were ordered to cease supply
ing milk from the herd, and since then
milk from other jerseys has been pur-
chased BY Temple Bros. and supplied to
their customers.
The total value of the animals con-
demned is about $3.50 and the allow
ance by the state amounts to 4 trihe
more than $2,G50. The hides are the
only thing Of value obtained from the
pareasses,
