One day mild hammered Russian

valisc In his hand. He was heavily
bearded man and with shaggy hands
and arms like George Esau. He hunt
cd up a cabman and inquired modest
ly. Where is the dime museum?"
The cabman told him and then asked,
want to ride up?"
YES" the bearded stranger told him
quietly. almost bashfuly. I'm to be
employed up there. I'm the wild man."
THE narrow escape" says the ex-
circus man. lay In the fact that no
newspaper man heard the mans re-
mark and that the cabman was an
Englishman. with no sense Of humor.

and Best.
| The matter of farm fences In one OF
the principal improvements of the
farm. a farm without good fences
never is valued very highly. even
though the fields be clean and fertile.
On great many farms the fence
proposition Is always serious one
with the owner. Too many farmers
are Indifferent regarding the keeping
Of their fences In repair. There Is
usually plenty Of work to be done on
the farm fences. They are continually
getting out of repair. and unless looked
after they get into bad order and en-
tice The live stock 10 cross them. The
matter of farm fences has already
gone through considerable evolution In
the last ten years. Very seldom does
one ever see the old rail fence. com.
monty termed the worn fence" The
rail fence Is fast becoming obsolete,
even In the timber districts. They
never were thing OF beauty. but
their construction lent qualntness to
many homesteads. Another fence that
is passing rapidly Is the hedgerow. A
hedge fence when properly cared for
Is one Of the beautifying acquisitions
OF well kept farm. When II is not
properly trimmed and cared for II IL
an eycsOre. Hedge has grown unpop-
ular on account OF the large amount of
work required TO keep II In proper con
dition and also on account Of its draw.
Ing the soil fertility from the ground
for considerable distance where
planted
Barbed wire Is also another thing
that is meeting with disfavor with the
most progressive farmers. II is very
cheap and durable fence. but If II Is
not kept In perfect condition Il Is the
most dangerous thing about the farm.
especially where live stock Is kept.
ON great many farms barbed wire
fences have cost the owner many times
more than what Il cost 10 construct
them IN the damage done to live stock
Many valuable colt or horse has
been rendered practically worthless by
1t. The damage done To cattle has not
been 80 great. but there are instances
where many valuable dairy cows have
had their udders practically ruined by
barbed wire.
The coming fcncc-in fact. II is al.
ready hcre-is the woven wire. II
has everything 10 commend II. II Is
slightly when properly put up and does
not permit Of grassy or weedy fence
corners. Wire fences take up very lit.
tie land and permit very high dc.
gree Of farming. Crops will grow right
up by the side of II. and the keeping
of the fence rows clean IL little labor.
Bad fences are often responsible for
bad feeling between ncighbors Woven
wire fences are the easiest of all
fences TO Keep In repair. II they are

to them once In awhile is all that IL |
necessary to keep them In first class

from throwing their heads over the
fence or breaking down the wire.

governed by the size of chickens TO be
yarded. Ordinary wooden lath Is four
feet long. and II may project six inches
above the upper stringer and six Inches
below the lower stringer. which would
bring the stringers three feet apart for
fence four feet high. Three-quarter
inch gas pipe is one inch outside d.

one-etghth inch holes through the
stringers. Cut the gas pipes five or six
feet long. according to the soil. II will
be necessary TO put the fence In place
and drive the gas pipes through the
holes. because after the stakes are

LIGHTNING
STRUCK BALL, GIVING PITCHER HOME
RUN AND WINNING THE GAME.

The Bundle Bees and the wassell
Bees, of Captain Nuts Sixth Street
H:ll ball tossers, played a game at
Norwood Inn yesterday before dinner.
The game went 1s innings before
either team scored, and that's going
some for bunch of old has-beens,
when in the thirteenth inning Briggs
Collins, pitcher for the Bundle Bees,
stung one to right field for a homer.
The hit would not have gone Cor a
home run if the lightning had not
favored the Bundle Bees. As the
ball was rolling toward the fielder it
was partly struck by lightning. This
scared the fielder so badly that he
ran to the stable. The ball, half
burnt, went to the roadside, and
when it was recovered it was tossed
around for couple of minutes, when
it fell to pieces. Something un-
