Prof. w. C. Coffey has Just com.
pleted some feeding experiments with
lambs at the Illinois experiment sta
ton. the chief object being to deter
mine the effect of silage upon the ex-
tent and economy of gains when sup

ers have at times reported trouble
from the use of silage. the experiment
was planned to ascertain. IL possible.
whether It may be fed in combination
with the above feeds without injury
to the health of lambs. and, II not,
what may be the cause of trouble.

lot of 16 lambs: Lot I. Shelled corn.

hay. The amount of silage was varied
in the different lots with the idea in
mind that II a number of lambs died
or were thrown on feed" or IL the
gains made were less than normal
where a large amount of silage was
fed, 1t might be possible to feed a

was also thought that it might be pos

but that II continued further trouble
might follow. Hence it was planned
to feed lots and on corn and hay

also thought that this manner of fin
ishing would probably secure better

 CHlMNEYS UPSET, WALLS CRACKED
AURORA, ILL, SUFFERS WORST IN
 SERIES OF SHOCKS
Several Threatening Fires Result from Upset StoVes-Factory FIues Collapse-CoIleges at
 Beloit Rock

CHICAGO, May 31.-An earthquake shock lasting several seconds was felt in the states of Indiana, Illinois, Wis consin, Michigan, Iowa and contiguous territory beginning at S:4I:3O o'clock this morning.
 Early reports covered a territory from Springfield, H., through Daven- port, Iowa, and Janesyille, Wis, north to Muskegon. Mich. Reports of the vibrations, but recording no material damage, were received from the follow ing cities: Beloit, Wis; Peoria, Ke- vance, Rockford, Joliet, Dixon, Streator, Galena, Freeport, Blooming ton, Moline, Elgin, Aurora, Springfield, Ill.,, and from Janesville, Wis, Daven- port and Dubuque, Iowa, and Muskegon and Kalamazoo, Mich. Throughout the territory affected the only damage reports were of a minor nature.
 Fires Are Started
 Several small fires were started by the overturning of stoves, and many chimneys were razed. Aurora, H., is said to have suffered particularly in this respect.
 In this city the shock was generally felt, but in the great majority of cases was attributed to the ordinary causes,
 
 vated trains, blasting in distant quar- ries or the passage of structural iron on big trucks through the streets.
 It was not until the newspapers made their appearance with the story that the public learned it had passed through natural phenomenon.
 Damage in Chicago, as elsewhere, was confined to the breaking of dishes, ornaments shaken from mantle pieces CT tables.
 Wire Service Crippled
 In the outskirts of the city several small fires were started, but were easily extinguished.
 During the period of the vibration it was almost impossible to get correct telephone connections owing to the swaying of the wires against each other
 At Beloit, Wis, all the college build ings rocked violently and many per sons experienced difficulty in remain ing on their feet.
 At Joliet chairs and other light ob- jects were overturned and at Dixon gas fires were shaken out.
 At South Haven and Benton Harbor, Mich, windows rattIed violently and much china was broken.
 At Dubuque, Iowa, the vibration seemed to have the effect of two shocks.
 Davenport, Iowa, also felt two shocks, the first shock being the more violent.

GIRL ASSAULTED BY
 AN INSANE CHINESE

GRASS VALLEY, Cal, June Miss Frances Noen. daughter of a wealthy rancher near here, was attacked by A. P. Gee, an insane Chinese, at the ranch today and escaped from his mur- derous fury only when her father and three ranch hands, summoned by her cries. had overpowered and tied the maniac
 Obeying nasty summons, Deputy Sheriff Martin went to the ranch. and after tying up Gee hand and foot took him to the county jail at Nevada City, from which the Chinese had been re leased twenty-four hours earlier.
 Gee was arrested on misdemeanor charge some time ago, and when re- leased yesterday made off to the hills, where he wandered about, barefOoted, all night.
 When he appeared at the ranch he was carrying his queue, which he had cut of. On seeing Miss Noell he rushed at her, screaming he would kill her.
 Noell and his men leaped upon the Chinese, who fought like a fiend. bit ing, scratching and foaming at the mouth.
 To subdue him they were compelled to handle him roughly and his body is covered with cuts and bruises.

YOUNG WOMEN SING ON WAY TO
 CITY JAIL
Fourteen Inmates of Institution, AL leging Mistreatment, Become Turbulent and StrenuousIy
 Resist Arrest

LOS ANGELES, June 1-Actuated by what they believed to be unjust and cruel treatment, fourteen girls of the Home of the Good Shepherd broke out in open rebellion at the home yester- day morning, and before the incipient riot could be quelled doors were smashed, windows broken and hurry call was sent for the police.
 As a result eleven of the leaders of the revolt were taken to police head quarters yesterday morning, and later three more, who persisted in keeping up the rebellion, were taken to police headquarters. All were later removed to the county jail.
 When the girls were brought to po- lice headquarters they presented a dis heveled appearance, their dresses were in many cases in ribbons and their loosened hair fell in snarls about their shoulders. The majority of the dis turbers bore distinct marks of the strenuous affair, with hands and faces scratched, and one of the number, Bar bara Crane, had badly lacerated right arm, which necessitated dressing in the receiving hospital.
 Enjoy Trip to Jail
 The young rioters viewed the situa- tion with hilarious pleasure and on the way to the police station cheered and sang and impressed the fact on pass ers-by that something had been do- ing"
 A great crowd followed the police patrol to headquarters, and the noise of the signing and dancing girls at- tracted such a crowd that it was neces- sary to close the jail doors while the girls were being booked. They all wanted to tell their story and all wanted to do it at the same time, and the babble that resulted nearly drove the officers to desperation.
 Were pinched and we're glad of it, sang one of the girls, and the state ment was greeted with a burst of cheers and laughter that made the pris- oners in the tanks believe wild west circus was being enacted.
 Chief of Police Dishman did not ap- prove of the levity, and when some of the girls began to use language that would not look pretty in print, he or dered the corridors cleared, and the revelers were taken into Capt. Dixon's office.
 A consultation was held and it was decided the county jail instead of the | detention home was the proper place for the stubborn and refractory girls.
