The Sleeping Sickness.

Pere Beauchene, the missionary
priest, has died at the Pasteur Insti-
tute, in Paris, of sleeping sickness,
contracted in Africa. Fourteen other
Observation-Disclosures, officials and
colonials-are undergoing treatment
for the same disease at the institute.
In all twenty-six cases have been
under observation there, severa or
which have terminated fatally. The
treatment has been so far for the
most part experimental. Among the
remedies tried are atoxyl, a chemical
preparation containing arsenic, which
has afforded marked, but only tenn
porary relief.
The immediate effect of atoxyl was
to kill a large number of the trypan-
osomes, as the sleeping sickness MI
crobe is called, but by a sort of pro-
cess of selection another species OF
the germ, which is refractory to ar
senic, rapidly developed, carrying of
the patient.

branch of research, an effectual the
~rapeutic agent against the malady
has not yet been discovered.-Chica-

Poultry Notes.

Protect your poultry from spring
rains.
Sour table scraps are not good for
poultry.
Whole corn is good for laying hens
during cold weather.
Hens do better IL kept in separate
lots of twenty-five each.
Give the laying hens fresh water
slightly warmed three times a day
during cold weather.
Large breeds should never be kept
in the same flock with small breeds.
Table scraps should be cooked and
given to the laying hens.
When hens acquire the feather
pulling habit they should be sent to
market at once.
Feed the laying hens at daybreak
and sundown, and keep them work
ing the entire time between.
Roosts for poultry should be placed
on a level, so that there can be no
preferred positions.
Lice always attack poultry more
when they are in an unthrifty condi-
ton than when they are we'll fed and
properly cared for.
If hens are confined to the poultry
house on cold days, see to it that they
do not have to stand on the bare
floor. Use straw. cornstalks. corn
husks or other dry material for a
floor covering. Hens with cold feet
will not lay very many eggs.
Although turkeys will eat snow
they should not be permitted to dc
so, but should be given plenty of
fresh, clean water.
When raising turkeys for market
medium sized ones will be found bet
ter than extra large ones.
Save a few Of the old turkey hens,
as the two-year-old is a better breeder
than the young hen.
Turkeys should not be housed with
chickens. as they require different
conditions.

SIX DEAD IN WABASH WRECK.
Floods Undermined Roadbed Thirty
Miles From Kansas City, Nc.

Kansas City, Mo.-Six lives were
lost, three persons were fatally hurt,
and some fifty were injured in the
wrecking of a Wabash passenger
train that plunged into the Missouri
River thirty miles east of Kansas
City. The dead are:
Charles Flowers, engineer; Louis
Bond, fireman; Harry Eckert, bag
gageman; Daniel King, two-year-old
son of E. T. King, Eldon, Mo-; Chas.
Anthony, laborer: Jesse Oldham, Ia
borer.
Frank Gardner, of Mount Vernon,
Ohio; Mrs. S. S. Hackett and Miss
Irene Dorton, of Errick, Mo-, were
mortally hurt.
OF the eight cars in the train five
coaches with the locomotive were in
the river, with the water covering all
of them except one end Of a sleeping
car. A chair car and two Pullmans
remained uninjured.
At the scene of the wreck the
river makes a bend, and the railroad
follows it. For days flood waters
have undermined the roadbed, max
ing it too weak to hold up the heavy
trains.

GOVERNMENT GETS $4,000
Utah Fuel Company Also Forfeits
$4,000 and 800 Acres.
Utah Fuel Company Annuls Title to
Land After Suits Brought
by the Government.

Washin on, D. G. - Although
promising lew prosecutions if investi-
cations now going on show that other
coal lands have been illegally ac-
quired, Attorney : General Wicker
sham has discontinued equity suits
recently instituted against the Utah
Fuel Company to annul title to 800
acres Of coal lands in Utah, valued at
$4,000.
The discontinuance is made in
view of the settlement between the
Government and representatives of
the fuel company, under which the
company agrees to pay the Govern
ment STA, 5000, reconvey the 500 acres
to the United States, besides forfeit
ing $14,400 paid to the Government
when the patents were issued on the
land. The fuel company is a subsid-
larry corporation of the Denver & Rio
Grande Railroad. Formal announce.
ment of the discontinuance was made
in the following official statement is
sued at the Department of Justice:
"a few months ago the Utah Fuel
Company, a subsidiary corporation of
the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad
Company, pleaded guilty in the Utah
district court to an indictment charg-
ing it with having conspired to de-
fraud the United States of 1440 acres
of coal lands, and was fined $4,000.
1t also reconveyed to the United
States these lands, which are ap-
praised at upward of $4,000, and
forfeited the original purchase price
and paid to the United States the
sum Of 1892, 900 in settlement of its
claims for coal taken from other
lands which could not be reconveyed
owing to the fact that they were
mortgaged to secure issues of bonds
outstanding in the hands of bona fide
purchasers.
Subsequent to such settlement,
the agents of the Government be-
came satisfied that the Utah Fuel
Company had illegally acquired title
to other coal lands of the United
States in Utah, and after examination
of their report the Acknowledgement
directed suits in equity to be brought
to annul titles to such lands. Short
ly after the commencement of these
suits the representatives of the com.
pany opened negotiations for settle.
ment, which resulted in an adjust.
ment agreed to by the Attorney-Gen.
eral and the Secretary of the Interior,
pursuant to which the Utah Fuel
Company pays to the Government the
sum of $4,000, reconveys to the
United States 500 acres of coal land
now appraised at a value of about
$4,000, besides FORGETTING the sum
of $14,400 paid to the Government
at the time the patents were issued
on the lands.
"In view Of the settlement, and
upon payment and reconveyance as
above mentioned, the Attorney-Gen.
eral has discontinued the suits. Only
the lands described in the suits dis
continued were embraced in the set

PICNIC PARTY OVERWHELMED
Two Men Are Drowned in Saving
Women After a Coudburst.

Boulder, Col.-Two are dead and
two were seriously injured as the re-
suit of a cloudburstt that deluged Two
Mile Canyon, north of Boulder. The
dead are Verne Carlisle, thirteen, of
Boulder, and Arthur Dickerman,
twenty-five, of Greeley. The serious
ly injured are Mrs. ABBOTT, of Garden
City, Kan, and Miss Bristow, of the
University of Colorado.
The victims were members of a
picnic party. When the rain began
to fall the party sought shelter under
a huge bowlder. Presently a torrent
swept down the canyon. The walls of
the canyon were precipitous, and 1t
was with great difficulty that the
women found places of comparative
safety. Six were ableto gain shelter,
but in aiding their companions, Dick
erman and Carlisle weer swept down
with the torrent. -.

Alfalfa Meal For Poultry.

We ind that, as a rule, our hens
fed on alfalfa meal lay very fertile
eggs, which produce strong, vigorous
and healthy chicks. We also find
that they will moult quicker in the
fall and commence to lay earlier in
the season. For laying hens we put
several quarts of alfalfa meal into a
closed vessel, then pour boiling water
over the meal until it is thoroughly
moistened; place a v over the
vessel and let the mixture steep for
a while.
Just before the feeding dash a little
cold water over the feed. This brings
out the green color, and the whole
presents a very pleasing appearance
and is as near grass as any feed can
Be- Some prefer to mix the meal
with table scraps or grain, both Of
which add palatability and variety
TO the mash. Bone meal and meat
scraps make excellent additions to
alfalfa or clover meal. both Of which
are concentrated feeds and great egg
producers.-A. L. c., Iowa Agricul-
