The EmeroencY Closet.

We read with a great deal Of in- terest of the housewife who is sud denly submerged with unexpected company and has nothing to begin a meal with but cold chicken and pota- toes. Fortunate woman," we hear some one say, that she had those, for often the four barrel is the only re- source for many an unfortunate, i'm provident housekeeper.
 One of the most satisfying posses sions for the household is the emer- in can and package, reserved for just such occasions. Let there be salmon, sardines and olives, peas, beans, corn. macaroni and tomatoes, with pickles and preserves; a few boxes of crack CTS, cookies and gelatine; chocolate. cocoa and any number of little choice things that are favorites in the fam fly. Renew as used, and one will al ways have the feeling of security, come who will.
 A soup of tomato and milk with sea- sonings is always good. A can of sal mon, heated and served in the center of a platter with riced, seasoned po-, tatoes served around it, and around the potato a thick white sauce, makes a delicious hot main dish A gelatine dessert if one has the time to wait for it, served with cream, is easily pre- pared, or preserves with cookies will make a sufficiently satisfying dessert. The accessories of olives, pickles or cheese will make most attractive meal

Stacking Hay.

The man who stacked his hay in any kind of shape hasn't forkful more spoiled than the man who had a roof over all, barring the bleaching of the outside of the stack and a very little bit on top. And still the quality will not be as good. There is a certain smell and color one can get only by having a good now under a good roof, and then the hay must be put there in richt condition.

Dwarf Trees.

Trees on Paradise stock may be Sianted eight feet apart each way, which will require 6S0 trees to the acre. These may be allowed to bear for several years, after which every other row each way may be cut out, leaving the balance IS feet apart With this very intensive method of culture and close planting the soil must be thoroughly enriched and made to support the large demands made upon it. This may be success fully done by the growing of legu- minous crops, with the addition of 800 to 1000 pounds of potash and bone, and 1,500 pounds of lime applied per acre as often as growth and condi- tion of the trees indicate their need of 1t.

Blew His Own Head Of.

onesboro.-Leonard Riley, a boy fourteen years of age, was instantly killed while out rabbit hunting His head was blown from his body. Ri ley and his little brother were near their home and in the excitement of trying to shoot a rabbit the gun was accidentally discharged. This is one of a number of accidents which have been reported since the hunting sea son opened, and may serve to empha- size the necessity for greater care in the handling of firearms.

LEFT A SAD MESSAGE.
Youth Tried to Commit Suicide in
 Cell at Hot Springs.


 Hot Springs.-'No friends, no mon- ey, no work, no home, nothing to eat, TO place to sleep, and nothing to live for" was the brief memorandum left by Charles Elliott of Chicago, who tried to commit suicide in cell at the city jail here where he had ap- piled for nights lodging.
 When the wanderer appeared at the iail and asked for place to sleep he was assigned to an empty cot in the wowan's department. passerby later heard a dull thud and notified the jailer, believing that an attempt at jail delivery was in prog ress. Upon investigation it was dis covered that the young man had hanged himself with a rope improvis- ed from a blanket, and that the drop had broken the rope. When the jail CT entectd the cell he found that Elliott had quickly tied the rope and was suspended from the top of the steel cage in an effort to strangle himself to death. He had divined that the rope would not stand the strin sufficient to break his neck, and cautiously let himself down and tried to end his live in the horrible man. ner described.
 The boy was cut down and restor- atives soon brought him to his senses. It was then that the note which re- fiected a mind devoid of all hope was found. The boy expressed his regret over having attempted self destruc- tion, and promised to lead a moral life.

DOUBLE TRACK ON SANTAFE
Enormous Task Will Be Begun Between
 Williams and Ash Fork.
Attest

l Wunams ana Asn rOrk.
 The entire coast lines system of the Santa Fe railroad is to be double tracked at once. from Albu- querque to the Pacific coast. and the work is to be commenced with in sixty days.
 This is the statement made last night by man in position to know the full details of an i'm provement which is the most inn portant the AtchisOn has undertak- en in recent years. The double tracking of the lines west of Albu- querque means practically the building of new line of railroad to the Pacific coast and indicates that the Santa Fe expects its double
 line to the east from Albuquerque to be taxed to capacity in the im- mediate future.
 The cost of the double tracking will be enormous and will keep several big construction crews in the field for many months. The work is to begin between Williams and Ash Fork and to be carried inn mediately to the Pacific coast. \. Following that work on the AL buquerque end will be begun. The work it is understood, was deter ] mined on at a recent meeting of the executive board and heads of the big system in Chicago. This work will account for the very heavy purchases of steel which the Sanat Fe system made some months ago and which could not be accounted for even by the construction under way and proposed in Texas and elsewhere.

Very few people except lawyers
read the opinions of the Mississip-

age reader they are dry. turgid
far-fetched and uninteresting yet
by reading them one csn get some
idea of our wonderfully compli-
Gated system of laws. After read
ing a long one though he will
feel that it is next to impossible
to convict any one of crime, and
the more he reads of them the
deeper will this conviction become
1t is almost impossible for case
to be SO cond ucted in the Circuit
Court but that either the Judge,
Sheriff, Clerk, district attorney
or jury shall make some error.
1t is somewhat like driving a wag-
on through long, crooked and
very narrow lane without hitting
the fence on either side with the
hubs 1t is barely possible but
not probable. And the least de-
Walton from the narrow, com pill
crted rule of practice and prece
dent gives the accused footing
with the supreme court. A
shrewd lawyer watches and notes
every deviation for his bill of ex-
ceptions.
