clRcuMsTANTIAL EVIDENCE

In 1893 the cutter Sparrow brought a
brig named the Nancy into the harbor
of Kingston, Jamaica, under the suspi-
cion that the latter vessel was engaged
in the slave trade. But though many
circumstances gave color to this accu-
sation, no clear proof could be obtained,
as the brig had no papers from which
such a charge could be substantiated.
The court, therefore, discharged the
suspected vessel. But the day before
she left the harbor a man-of-war ar
rived bringing some documents which
clearly proved the guilt of the Nancy.
While cruising off Santo Domingo the
crew of the man-of-war had amused
themselves with fishing for sharks. In
the stomach of one caught was found
bundle of ships papers-the very docu-
ments which the owner of the Nancy
had flung overheard when boarded by
the Sparrow, and doubtless imagined
he was rid of forever. Curiosity led the
captain to clean and examine the pa
pers SO strangely brought to light, with
the result that he deemed it his duty
to lay them before the authorities. The
unlucky Nancy was condemned on this
Economically acquired evidence.

A BIRMINGHAM LApVs PET DOG

Many of the miniature dogs, such as
are to be seen in plenty at the dog
shows, lead lives very much akin TO
those of human beings. They are
washed and dressed, and combed and
brushed, and be-ribboned with all the
care and regularity of little children.
But, according to a Birmingham paper.
there is lady at Edgbaston who goes
several steps further. She has very
tiny toy dog, no bigger than penny
doll, and for this she has had little
cradle made, which at bedtime she
carries upstairs and places beside her
bed. 1t is almost incredulous that
things should have gone so far, but
the lady makes a little bed up in the
cradle with blankets and sheets and
Counterpart and a pillow. Here this
little pampered animal rests of a night
carefully tucked in with it's head upon
the pillow and it's little black spot of
nose sticking out above the sheets. The
sheets are changed twice week. Dur
ing the winter it has a blanket below
and sheet on top. and in the summer,
of course, a sheet both below and
above. 1 have not yet heard that it
says it's prayers before getting in, but
it strikes me that something of that
sort will come about If things go on
like this.

incident or event Of the early days.
Many things have happened to cheer
the early settlers in their arduous
work of developing a new country.
The hunting stories told by the toast
master, Judge Grinde1and and L.
I.amberson, brought down the house.
When all had talked and smoked to
their hearts content as long as was
thought desirable, the toast master
turned to the genial and esteemed
host, Mr.. w. H. Dixon, ard on be-
half of the friends assembled
presented him with an elegant gold
chain and charm. Mr.. Dixon replied
in appropriate words, thanking his
friends for accepting his hospitality

ned most of all. Departing, each
guest wished Mr. Dixon many such
pleasant birthday anniversaries. Each
guest had been asked when invited. to
bring his appetite and smile. and
each departed minus al appetite, but
with a much broader smile. 1t had
been good to be together

Just before the close of the success.

teachers of Marshall County, which

Miss Clara Tonderum presented the
following resolution to the conven-
ton: 1--WE can but show in a small
degree the appreciation we feel, to
all concerned. Of the value of this
meeting: but we extend our most
heartfelt thanks to our honorable
county superintendent for his never
tiring efforts. in preparing for these
meeting gs,-he is worth his weight in

for their speeches, of which not
enough good can be said, to all who so
pleasantly entertained us with music
and songs, to the commercial club,
for their social entertaining, to the
teachers of Warren, for their great
suggestions, which we obtained in
Visiting the various rooms, and last
but not least to the citizens of Warren
for their always open doors and warm
welcOme-We repeat-a most hearty
thanks"
Motion was made and seconded by
several officers, to have the above
printed in the Warren papers and the
Marshall County Schools.
The Newroldenites, who have already
been seen and probably heard, would
again like to thank the Warren peo
ple for their congenial hospitality.

enthusiastically shows larger fat
elobules, and iti 5, therefore, the best
possible milk for shipping purposes.
The greatest yields of butter per
COW have been made in this country
and from Holstein COWS. The recent.
ly completed semi-offcial test by re.
rresentatives of the Wisconsin Ex-
pertinent Station for one year of the
Hclstein COW, Colsntha As Johanna, is
the worlds record for all breeds and
shows a yield in twelve consecutive
months of 99S.26 pounds fat, from
27:432 pounds of milk, 1,247.82 pounds
of butter on 80 per cent basis, or ~
less at S5.7 per cent.
The worlds greatest record previ-
GUS to this was that of the Holstein
COW, Pauline Paul, reaching 1,153
pounds Is ounces, and this was a per-
fectly authenticated record.
OF the 1894 Holstein COWS tested by
state experiment stations during the
year ending May Is, 1908, the average
seven-day yield was 1851 pounds of
fat from 393 pounds of milk, showing
fat percentage OF 3.46.
Holstein cattle are by no means
dainty in their choice of food from
calfhood up. They freely consume all
sorts of roughage. They possess
vigorous constitutions an are hardy
under all conditions of climate; free
from disease, and breed with great re-
gularity, producing very large and
strong calves, which are raised with
out difficulty.
Holsteins excel for all dairy purposes
No breed equals them in the produc.
tion of veal. The calves are large at
birth and fatten with great rapidity
They are valuable for beef produc.
tion, and they fatten very rapidly
when not in milk. The conditions un.
der which the breed has been devel
oped for thousands of years are con.
duci>e to this remarkable combination
OF utilities.
Large size is predominant charac
teristic of the Holstein. The peculiar
yitalizing properties existing in Hol
stein milk have become widely recog
nized by physicians and scientists, as
we'll as breeders. Public institutions
hospitals for the insane, etc., using
large quantities of Holstein milk
among their patients, find certain pc
| culiar results not noticeable from
other Fmilks.
The nearness in composition to the
human mothers milk has led gener
ally to the use of Holstein milk fo1
infants. and the supplying of pure
Holstein milk for this purpose ha:
become a distinct feature of the cit,
milk trade.

Dentist Worse Than Death.

Trenton, N. J.-Declaring that he is
more afraid Of a dentist than of an
electrocutioner, Sebano Mellilo, Hud-
son county murderer under sentence
to be electrocuted, has arranged with
a local dentist to extract two teeth
after his death and send them to rela-
tives in Italy.
Mellilo insisted that he would rather
go to the electric chair than to a den
lists chair, and that the teeth must
not be extracted until after his elec-
trOcutiOn.
The man sets great value by the
teeth and wishes them sent to his
relatives in order that they may sell
them.
