BULL FIGHT

Lisbon, Nov. 30.-A correspondent
at Bilboa describes a terrible riot al
a bull ring there. A magnificen,
bull fight was announced, and the
ring was crowded. The spectators
however, soon recognized that both
the bull fighters and the bulls were
of an inferior kind. immediately
protests were heard from all sides,
and these grew in volume.
When the performance was half
over the whole rink was in a state of
uproar. Some of the indignant spec
tators broke up the seats. hundreds
invaded the arena. attacking the
panic stricken toreadores. A force
of civil guards had to surround them
to protect them from the fury of the
crowd.
cry was raised that the entrance
money should be returned. The own
er of the ring offered half. pointing
out that half the performance had
been given. The spectators. how
ever, refused and prepared to set fire
to the building, which was entirely of
wood. The civil guards made several
changes and at last cleared the ring.
No one was killed, but twenty-five
people were more or less injured. At
last the owner of the bull ring to ap-
pease the public. declared that the
whole of the money taken at the
doors should be devoted to the Span
lsh wounded in the Shift campaign.
This Gained the troubled crowd.
which then dispersed.

. POLITICS AND POLITICIANS. !


! WATERFOWL, S. D., is agitating fol-
a commission form of city govern
ment.
James J. McGillivray, a former
member of the Wisconsin senate has
announced his candidacy for the Re-
publican nomination for governor.
John F. Smulski, former state
treasurer of Illinois, is being doomed
for the Republican nomination for
mayor of Chicago.
The insurgents in congress will
receive new recruit in the person of
Fountain L. Thompson, the new
United States senator from North
Dakota.
A commission form of government
for the state of Texas is suggested by
Mayor ]. U. Sweeney of Ell Paso, who
believes it could be made to work as
we'll for the state as it is working for
the cities.
1t is reported that the Republican
members of the next general assem-
bly, of Virginia will vote with the
Prohibition-Democra legislators in
the fight to pass a statewide prohi-
bition bill
William w. Cocks, who represents
the First New York district in con-
gress, predicts that ex-President
Roosevelt will be nominated and
elected governor of New York next
year.
Fred M. Alger, eldest son of the
late Russell A. Alger, United States
senator and secretary of war, is men
toned as a candidate for the nomina-
ton of lieutenant governor of Michi-
gan on the Republican ticket.
Friends of Mayor Mcclellan Of.
New York are said to be conducting
compaign in the belief that next
year the mayor may be a candidate
for governor 1t is believed that
State Chairman Connors will lend
his support to the movement.
Robert L. Mccormick, Republican
national committeeman for Washing
ton. has announced his candidacy for
United States senator to succeed
Senator Piles. Mr.. Mccormick is the
possessor of a large fortune made in
the timber business in the northwest.
Butler Ames, the Massachusetts
congressman who has announced
himself as candidate for the United
States senate to succeed Senator
Lodge, is a West Point graduate. an
officer of the Spanish-American war
and also a graduate mechanical and
electrical engineer.
There has long been a habit of |
nicknaming men in public life. The
latest additions to the list are Col
lector Loeb and Henry w. Taft. The
former is known in New York city
circles as His Honor the Barber
and the latter is known among law
yers as The Earl of Pawtucket."
In the senatorial election in North |
Dakota next year there will be two
places to be filled, Senator McCum-
ber's term expiring and the Johnson
vacancy to be filled by election. The
state primary law makes no provision
for a popular vote to fill vacancy, |
but it is considered Ii kelly the sec |
rotary of state will require candidates |
to specify whether they are oandi-
dates for the long or short term
Many Democrats belonging to the
New York state organization are
looking forward with curiosity, if not |
anxiety, to the report of the commit
tee on credentials in the state con-
vention next year, when a complete |
ticket from governor down is to be
nominated. The contest for control
of that committee, is figured, will
be very close between Charles F. |
Murphy and Chairman William J. |
Connors and his friends.

CONCRETE RAILWAY TIES.

The Italian Government has order
ed 100000 concrete railroad ties which
are now in course OF construction,
says Cement Age, New York. a few
thousand Of such ties, ordered for ex-
perimentaI purposes, were construct
ed BY the Gabeliini Company some
wears ago, and have been used on the
railroad from Castellamare-Adriatieo
TO Ancona. As result Of the trials
to which the ties were subjected a
new design, to be employed in execut'
ing the present large order, will re-
place the old. The principal change
will. it is understood, be found in the
introduction into the concrete mass
of a larger number of the reinforcing
mstallic bars, Of reduced diameter,
in the new design OF ties. The cost
of a concrete tie is estimated at about
81. 20, and it Is believed that its endur-
ance will be from three to four times
as great as that Of a wood tie. A tie
will weigh tbout 2S6 pounds, inclus-
i've Of tile weight Of the metallic rein
forcement, about 28 pounds A COM
parison Of the respective cost and
value Of concrete and wooden ties
would no doubt give different results
in the United States from those af-
forded in the Italian estimates, owing
To varying conditions in the two coun-
tries affecting local cost Of materials
and manufacture, endurance, etc. The
belief is entertained that the concrete
tie viii eventually entirely replace
wood tie.

EXPECTANT ELKS.

No project is being more eagerly
watched in New York than the build

beginning to rear its huge front right
in the heart of the select club district.
Herds OF impatient elks may be seen
each day paving up the excavation
mounds of this building, which is to
be the homing spot for the men who
wear the antlers in every section Of
the land. Christmas Eve Of the pres
ent year has been set as the day for
opening this novel institution, and
Gotham will be gay from that time on
with the merrymaking which is being
planned to radiate from the new club

shot and instantly killed early this
morning by neighbor Leo ziegler,
who keeps a saloon at lolS West
North avenue, Zeigler, in statements
made to Lieutenant Stahl Of the
Shakespeare avenue police station,
declared he fred the fatal shot after
he had been struck on the head with a
brick
The shooting took place shortly
after 3 o'clock at North Central
Park and Armitage avenues An hour
| later Zeigler surrendered himself to
Policeman James Olson. The saloon
Keeper, the police say, made conflict
ing statements,
An inquiry was prompted also by
the failure to find any bruises on
Zeigler's head, although he declared
the brick had been thrown with CON
siderable force,
'It was all mistake" said the
saloonkeeper when questioned by
Lieutenant Sahl Newell, myself
and several other friends had been
attending a wake at s27 West North
avenue, and we had no quarrel. When

at his side"
In the statement about leaving the
house alone the police declare Zeigler
lis not telling the truth. Lieutenant
Stahl has found two friends Of the
saloonkeeper and the dead man who
both assert that all four of them start
ed home together. These men-John
Robinson, SSs North Springfield ave-
nue., and George LEIPZIG, 1917 North

said, walked several blocks with Zeig-
Ter and Newell. When near Central

THE POULTRY YARD.

Anybody can keep hens, but not
anybody can have hens keep him.
Throw the house wide open for ar
| hour or so on pleasant days, and give
thorough airing.
Sounds good to hear the merry eae-
kle of the hens, and how glad We are
to see the egg crop increasing.
1t will be many weeks before the
hen with the frozen comb VIII do any
thing towards filling the egg basket.
Too much pure air in the quarters
is almost impossible. Give plenty OF
ventilation, avoiding direct drafts.
Mix a tablespoon Of charcoal with
quart of mash, every other day
during this month. 1t will have a
wonderful tonic effect.
A cold, uncomfortable hen will not
LAY. The expert poultryman knows
that, and accordingly he feeds well
and makes his fowls work.
Green stuff is scarce articles these
days. Steamed clover and leaves are
good substitute. The clover con
tains lime and other elements that in
crease egg production.
Do not allow the fowls outdoors
unless the runs are clear of snow.
PnuItrv that are compelled to eat
snow to quench their thirst are apt to
suffer from bowel disorder.
February is the beginning Of the
ducklaying season, but not before the
latter end Of the month. Young duck
lings, we'll reared are laying now, but
there is not much profit in their eggs
as they are not suitable for Matching
Heat is needed in the poultry house
only when the ventilation is so bad
that the air would be moist without
the heat to compel the air to absorb
| it. But it is more reasonable proper
| ty to ventilate the poultry house and
keep it dry in that way.
If there is any bad weather coming
to US, it generally makes its appear
ancc during February The wise
poultryman is the one who has al
ready prepared for that emergency
and his hens are not only comfortable
but are laying eggs in large quantities
The best way to warm poultry Il
by giving them something to do. 81
keep plenty of litter on the floor ant
scatter grain in it. Make it a rule tc
leave the laying hens to themselvet
during the fore part OF the day. Tha
is their busy time and they do not lik
to be disturbed then.
In charging an incubator with egg
they should be Of uniform size ant
color. The brown shells are thicke
than the white shells, and therefor
demand different treatment. Moist
ure or ventilation sufficient for tn
one class would not do for the Other
This is the cause Of many failures.
Hen mites can be killed in winte
as we'll as in the summer. II the hen
can be removed to other quarters, til

} mites; but it must be kept up'for sey
eral days in succession. Put cob'
chips, etc, with little sulphur, into

to her rudder post which was wrench

down to this port on Wednesday

she swung on her chains to the tide,
il developed that he was bit TOO
far in shore, and the helm struck and
stuck, and the rudder post was so
