CFrom the Milwaukee Journal.)

A woman came into the general

sired to exchange it for another jar of
butter. In churning her butter she
had discovered mouse in the churn.
1T didn't injure the butter she
said to the store keeper, land to any
one who did not know the circum-

Taking the woman at her word,
the merchant carried her jar into the

another jar, and the gratified customer
took back her mouse butter with a
thousand thanks for the accommo-
dation.

Fill one with water and the other with
milk. Then catch fly and place it
in the glass of water. That fly is an

Autumn Days.
(From November Farm Journal)

Beside tall ricks of corn, the weary year
Reclines in ease. and Autumns generous hand
Has filed her lap with tributes; bright and clear
The berries CLEAN like gems of Samarcand.
The predatory wasp, where purple globes
OF haws swing pendulous, is slipping wine;
Or, mid the grass. with apple scented robes.
Still deeper delves the sly woodpecker's mine
The filibustering crows and squirrels break
The brooding calm above the fields of corn;
Old furrowed fields deeper stiffness take,
When die the echoes of the quail's far horn.
The brier-clad crests reflect the ashen hues
OF fires that burn their grasses to decay;
The orif1ammes are drenched in nightly dews,
And beauty fades with each succeeding day.
All things partake the silence; tangled skeins
OF droning gnats forbear a louder cry;
Or where the dark form of the vulture stains,
In circled flight, the autumn-painted sky.
1t seems see some ghost of that fair day,
In golden raiment, wander from beneath
The drifted leaves, and down the distance stray,
AS Lear once did upon his cherries heath.

Judqe Hands Death Penalty
TO Six Tennessee
Night Riders
They Take Their Medicine
Like StOicS...Two Get
Twenty Years

Union City, Tenn, Jan. 9.-Without a
tremor six men of Reelfoot lake heard
judgment. passed today condemning
them to pay with their lives the penalty
for the part they were convicted OF
having had in putting to death Captain
Quentin Ranken at Walnut Log, the
deed of band of bold night riders of
which the men were declared to be
the leaders. Whatever may have been
their emotion, they faced the court to
receive sentence with the same stole ex-
pressions as have been their marked
characteristic during the sensational
trials of which today was the climax.
When court convened shortly after
noon the room was crowded with peo-
pie from the lake. With small cere-
mony, as anticipated, the motion of the
defense asking new trial was over
ruled by Judge Jones. Then in a
deathlike quiet, the six men, Garret
Johnson, Saml Applewaite, It'd Bur-
ton, Roy Ransom, Arthur Cloar and
Fred Pineon, convicted of murder in
the first degree, each in his turn faced
Judge Jones to hear the mandate OF
the court and Friday, February 10, set
as the day of their execution.
As they turned to return to their
places in the prisoners dock, faint,
half-hearted smile played on the faces of
Pineon and johnson, but behind this,
they were men of stone; they could
not have ssisown. les. emotion. The pro-
ceedings ended, the court room was
quickly emptied, and through crowds OF
their kinsmen and friends the men were
led back to jail to await the carrying
out of the courts decree.
An appeal has been taken to the su-
preme court. Two of the men, Bud
Morris and Bob Huffman, found guilty
of murder in the second degree, received
the sentence named by the jury, twen-
ty years in the penitentiary.
On the part OF the auditors there
was not sen1blance of an attempt to-
ward a demonstration and the squad of
soldiers stationed about the room had
little to do. They heard the decree
with the same stoicism as marked the
principals.
The aged mother of Fred Pineon was
among those in the court room and not
withstanding mothers emotion which
must have been hers, to all appear
ances she might have been but disin-
terested spectator on casual visit to
the court. This was but an example of
others of the relatives of the men.

Returning Congressman From
Panama Satisfied With
the Good Work
Favored Sea Level Canal
Bot Now Believe Lock
Plan Best

New York, Jan. 9.-Predictmg CON-
pletion of the Panama canal by 1915 and
expressing satisfaction with the Gatun
dam site, which he had carefully in
spected, Representative Murdoch of
Kansas returned today withfour other
congressman from a brief tour of the
canal zone and examination of the
work being done.
The party, comprising Representatives
Murdock, Haugen and Kennedy of
Iowa, Gronna of North Dakota, and
Lindberg of Minnesota arrived on the
steamship Advance from Colon, leaving
the isthmus before the members of the
house committee on interstate and for
eign commerce, now in the canal terri
tory, had begun their Investigations.
The members of the party, whose visit
was of an unofficial nature, all express
ed themselves as pleased with what
they observed on the isthmus. Mr.. Muir
dock in particular was enthusiastic over
what he characterized as the splendid
esprit de corps that he found pervad-
ing the 1000 American workern en-
gagged in digging the canal.
",rhere are no very great engineer
ing difficulties to be overcome, further
than those already anticipated and pro-
vided for" said Mr.. Murdock, "and |
do not see how this work can consume
over six or seven years more, if the
present health precautions are continued
and Uncle SANS sexchequer; can, stand
the strain"
Mr.. Murdock said he had experienced
a complete change of heart on the
question of the .advisability of the lock
canal as against the sea level cutting
which latter the government had aban-
doned as impracticable.
"There is nothing for it but lock
canal" said he. "The conditions are
such that the construction of a sea
level canal would be wasteful and fool
ish. My colleagues and l all went down
there strong sea level men, and we are
all coming back, with one exception,
strongly in favor of the lock construc-
ton"

Washington, D. c., Jan. 9.-The
secretary of the treasury today an
nounced a call on the national bank
repositories for approximately $685.
100000 of government deposits, $751;
100000 to be paid on or before Jan

be paid on or before February 10,
1909. This call on national banks
for the return to the treasury of
$25 ,O00, 900 is not made necessary bv
any urgent need of cash, the balance
on hand and available for all pur-
poses, being fully $29,000,000 with
the revenues showing slight increases
over the one of a year ago.
The secretary's desire to provide
ample funds for treasury needs at the
beginning of the new administration
about eight weeks hence, is believ-
ed to be the only purpose in making
call at this time.

Canal VIII Be Settled
AmicabIy

Washington, D. c., Jan. 9-Final
drafts in English and in Spanish
have been prepared at the state de-
partment Of the proposed treaties
between the United States OF Amer
lea and the United States OF Colum-
bia, the United States of America and
Panama, and the United. States of
Columbia and Panama. "' N
Their completion marks the end OF
long pending questions following the
cession of Panama from Columbia,
and opens the way for the resump-
tion of diplomatic relations between
the two countries.
The situation assumed the phase
of three-cornered affair because Of
the cession of Panama to the Unit
ed States of America of a strip of
land for the building of the Panama
canal, the rights hinging on that Sc
cession and the money consideration
involved.
The main features of the treaty be-
tween Panama and Columbia, which
already have been stated in these
dispatches, are the assumption by
Panama OF $2,500,OOO of Columbia's
external debt and the delimitatior
of the boundary line between the
two countries.
Because of the questions involved
the treaty between the United States
OF America and the United States Of
Columbia is supplementary and nee
essary accompaniment of that be-
tween Panama and Columbia, while
that between the United States OF
American and Panama is necessary by
reason of the adjustment OF the ques-
tions between Panama and Columbia.
