MILKING the Cow.

'Milkmen have different ways Of
managing their cows, but generally
they feed each cow and begin milking
as soon as the cow begins to eat"
says dairyman. "The mixer hurries
to get through, too, because If the cow
finishes her breakfast before the milk
er has done his work she EFFORTS more
feed by holding back her milk, so must
be fed again to keep her in good hui
NOR. Some milkmen do their milking
first and then feed Immediately, and
cows that are accustomed to this treat
ment generally give down their milk
cheerfully, for they know that milking
is a prelude to the feeding. 1t all de-
ponds on habit and the way the cows
are treated, for a cow is much smarter
than she looks and more grateful than
most persons would believe. So long
as the cows know they are not going
to be struck or beaten they will neither
kick nor hook. An experienced milk
man will never allow any loud talking
or excitement about his barns, for the
quieter the cows are kept the greater
the quantity Of milk and the easier the

A Famous Architects Trick.

When Sir Christopher Wren was
building the town hall of Windsor, a
fidgety member of the corporation, so
the story goes, insisted that the roof
required further support and desired
the architect to add more pillars. In
vain did Sir Christopher assure him
that the danger was imaginary. He
knew better The alarm spread, and
the great architect was worried into
adding the desired columns.
Years passed, and in later times,
when architect and patrons were dead,
cleaning operations In the roof re-
vealed the fact that the supposed addi-
Honal supports did not touch the roof
by two inches, though this was not per-
ceptible to the gazers below.
By this ingenious expedient did Wren
pacify his critics, while vindicating his
own architectural skill to future gener-
atoms.

Next day it was an egg, and so on.
Every day there was something taken
and put off with the remark, I'm not

OF course there was never any re-

bill came to larger amount than

CATCHES . BOLD BUccANEHR
Took a Weeks Hunt TO Locate and
Then Chase That Made
the Cutters Funnel
Red Hot.


Red Hot.
Milwaukee, June 30.-Captain u. III.
Ceberroth, of the Revenue Cutter Tus-
carora, who captured John Seavey.
VINO had stolen the schooner Nellie
Johnson from port at Montague. Mich.
has arrived in Milwaukee and told the
story of an exciting hunt and chase for
Seavey, who left the schooner at Frank
fort, Mich, and went aboard his
own schooner, the Wanderer, on which
he attempted to escape. The arrest
followed lively chase of several
hours, during which the speed of the
revenue cutter was SO great that the
heat of the funnel burned off all the
paint and she is undergoing repairs in
the harbor at Milwaukee. Seavey had
been member of the crew of the Mel
lie Johnson and is alleged to have seiz,
ed the vessel together with two COM
paDions, William Loquist, wanted in
Chicago for alleged counterfeiting, and
Hugh Cotton, both Of whom have dis
appeared and are being sought by the
authorities.
On the cutter was United States
Marshal Currier, of Chicago, with a
warrant for Seavey's arrest, and also
the master of the Nellie Johnson. The
cutter did not know where to look for
the stolen vessel, but at last got word
that she was moored in the river at
Frankfort, Mich, and that Seavey was
about to sail The cutter laid off the
Frankfort harbor and waited for Sea-
vey, and Captain Ueberroth anchored
to telephone the captain of the life-sav-
ing crew to notify him of Seavey's
movements.
"We had hardly done this" said
Captain Ueberroth, when we sighted
the schooner under full sail with a
good stiff breeze, sailing directly out
into the lake. AS we had good de-
scription of Seayey's schooner, the
Wanderer, we were certain of our
boat and steamed after her. 1t was an
exciting trip. He had a good start, but
we fired up and made fast time, with
the result that in an hour or two we
caught UP with the schooner. We hail
ed the man and ordered him to heave
to. then sent an armed crew, with
their arms concealed, for he was
known to be desperate man, with in
structions to bring him aboard.
''This was done, and when he reach
ed our vessel the warrant was read by
Marshal Currier and Seavey was pu.
under arrest. The Wanderer was sent
back and moored to the wharf at
Frankfort, while the owner of the Mel
lie Johnson, Captain r. G. Mccormick,
removed his own schooner to his home.
The pirate was surprised, to say the
least He said that we would never
have caught him had he had another
half hours start 1t was one of the
most exciting trips we have had, and
the capture kept our crew busy" Sea-
vey may be sent to the penltentiary
for ten years for his little game.
