Too Fat Hens.-We recently saw a
statement by writer that hens never
became too fat 10 lay and that this
notion was born of ignorance. The
writer is convinced that hens FIRE
quently become oyerfat from under e1
ercise and the feeding of too much
corn. He remembers one such her
that when dressed yielded five pounds
Of worthless fat and was reduced by
the removal of the fat from ten to five
pounds in weight. Not only are such
birds rendered worthless for egg pro
duction, but they also are rendered
worthless for anything else. An over
abundance of fat is an unhealthy in
dication and opens the way to The com
ng of various diseases. 1t is as detrl
mental to the breeding fowl as it is
TO the laying fowl.

rHE JonNsoN-JEFrRlNs FIGHT.
Contest Over Location of Fight
Grounds Growing Bitter
Utah Governor Firm.

Where shall the Jegries-Johnson
prize fight be held? This question
is worrying the sporting world and
may lead to rupture between the
twn men who have agreed to finance
the asht and whose bid was accept
ed BY the fighters. One wants to hold
IL in San Francisco and the other
insists it shall be held in Utah The
governor of the latter state declares
the fight shall not be held in his do
main and evidently does not intend
to be caught mapping as was the
governor of Mississippi, when the
Sullivan-Kilrain fight was pulled
on in that state and which called
forth the following satire from the
pen of Bob Burdette:
The governor sat in his easy chair,
a spyglass in his eye: Has anyone
seen 5000 men and a train of cars
go by? A pilot train with the bad
men on, one more and another one
still with rattle of wheels and
changing of bell, and shrek OF the
whistle shrill? They travel not as
the flying skip, in silence and in
fear; they whoop and holler and
howl and yell for all the world to
of the fight for six long weeks or
more, and / fear that | cannot find
the place till the brutal fight is DER.
Oh, rally and squander, my men of
arms, and look if you may see where
three railway trains and 5000 men
have hidden away from me.
They rallied and squandered, those
men at arms; they searched the
country through; and another gov
ernor came along and Joined the
searehers too. They looked in the
clock and under the stair, and I'M
der the bed they peered, and out in
the kitchen, and everywhere, but
the trains had disappeared. They felt
in their pockets and looked in their
hats, and lowered a man down the

had disappeared, there wasn't no.
body could tell. They asked a boy
down by the hall. and the woman
who keeps the candy shop; but
they hadn't seen nothin' at all. They
dragged the pond at Sawyer's mill.
and they questioned the toll-gate
man, and all through the lot at the
back of his house, the governor
raced and ran. But all in vain, for
wherever he looked, the people he
sought were gone, and the only place
fight was on. And he never knew
there had been a fight until week
and a day, then he sent a constable
after the men, 1000 miles away.
Long live the state of Missasipl
The governor, long live he! If ever
the moon should run away may he
be there to see! Should hostile pow
ers invade his land at some far dis
tant day, may be find the foe that
wastes his state before it goes away.
Aud great good medicine had it been
for the land of the sunny south had
the governor closed his smooth-bore
eyes and looked with his long-range
mouth.

THE SOUND OF THUNDER.

It is to Professor Trowbridge that We
owe an experiment to explain the noise
of thunder. 1t has usually been
thought that the noise is caused by the
closing up Of the vacuum created by
the passage OF the lightning, the air
rushing in from all sides with a clap;
but the intensity of the noise is. rather
disproportionate, and it is now sup
posed that the thunder is due to the in
tense heating of the gases, especially
the gas OF water yapor along the line OF
the electric discharge and the conse-
quent conversion Of suspended moisture
into steam at enormous pressure. In
this way the crackle with which peal
OF thunder sometimes begins might be
regarded as the sound of steam explo'
sions on small scale caused by induc-
tive discharges before the main flash.
The rumble would be the overlapping
steam explosions, and the final clap,
which sounds loudcst, would be the
steam explosion nearest TO the auditor.
In the case OF rumbling thunder the
is passing from cloud to cloud,
When the flash passes from the earth
to the clouds the clap is loudest at the
Professor Trowbridge gave
substance to these suppositions by caus-
ing electric flashes to pass from point to
point through terminals clothed in
soaked cotton wool, and he succeeded
in magnifying the crack OF the electric
spark to a terrifying extent. London

CONFLICT BETWEEN CHURCH
AND STATE.

One hour after presenting the note of
Premier Canalejas to the Vatican Of
ficially announcing that Marquis de
Ojeda had been called to Madrid for a
communication from the government, !"
the Spanish Ambassador to the Vatican
left Rome. This was early yesterday
morning, and as yet no retaliatory
measures have been taken by the
church, and Monsignor Vico still re-
remains in Madrid as papal nuncio.
With Catholics in Rome expressing
hopes that Don Jaime, the Carlist pre-
tender, may raise the stand and Of re-
volt and the Catholics Of the Biscayan
provinces rise in insurrection and with
the socialists in Spain threatening dis
order, the impartial of Madrid which has
hitherto been unfriendly to Premier
Canalejas, ranges itself upon the side Of
the government in the pending conflict
with the Vatican.
The liberal press in general continues
staunchly to support the cabinet which
has been left free hand to carry
through its policy by the departure by
King Alphonso and his queen for Eng
land.
The liberal press expresses special
indignation at the telegram OF Cardinal
Merry del Val, the papal secretary of
state, indorsing the attitude of the Bis
cayan Catholics, who threatened to
precipitate civil war and in telegram
to the Vatican placed their lives and
property at its disposal for the con-
flict.
The Roman Catholic priests through
out'the Biscayan, or northern provinces
OF Spain, preached violent sermons Sum

THE DEATH OF JUDGE WATSON.

The murder Of Judge James A. Wat
son, prominent lawyer and capitalist,
who was found dead on his front porch in
Parkersburg, w. Va, last Friday
morning, with his wallet, containing
more than $4,000, missing, has caused
great sensation.
The arrest OF Jessie and Lulu Metz,
two women in whose company Judge
Watson is alleged to have been on the
fateful night, was the first startling de-
velopment. tt was followed yesterday
morning by the arrest on suspicion OF
Claude S. Simms, an oil operator, who
was associated with Judge Watson in
the oil business.
The states attorney announced yes
tcrday that there had not been sufficient
evidence produced against the suspects
to warrant their detention longer at
this time.
The murder OF Judge Watson has
exposed to public gaze new side TO
the career of the brilliant barristcr.
On one side he was ali able and pros
porous lawyer, member of the City
Council and man arrayed always on
the side of law and order. He was
particularly bitter i'll waging warfare
on liquor and was q rigid teetotaler.
1t is now alleged that he was at the
home Of the Metz women.
One theory Of the police was that
Judge Watson was murdered by being
doped with strychnine in the form Of
Knockout drops and that he was then
robbed and his body taken and laid on
the porch OF his own home, more than
4 mile distant
Another OF the developments yester-
day in the investigation OF the mystery
was the report made by DR.. l.. 0. Rose,
an expert chemist. upon the results OF
his analysis Of the stomach, liver, in
testincs and other organs Of the mur-
dered man, which were turned over to
him for analysis. DR.. Rose reported
that he had found strychnine poison IN
large quantities in the stomach OF Judge
Watson. There was enough OF it, ac-
COTulllS w liiS lSpoil, w Nil oSNN'Ni
ordinary men. A small portion OF the
stomach juice was given to large frog
and it died in few minutes.
The report Of the chemist, with the
result of the autopsy, which showed
Judge Watson to have been in perfect
physical condition, proves conclusivcly
that he was murdered. The testimony
of Miss Mary Kelley. Judge Watson's
stenograpcr and confidential clerk, be-
fore the coroner's jury, tends to indicate
that nearer $4,000 than $4,000 in
money was stolen from Judge Watson.
She testified to having drawn 50, 1000 out
OF bank and turnedit it over to him, and
it is known that he had several hun
dred dollars beside this amount. All
of this sum is missing, and there is
hardly any doubt that the motive for
the murder was to get this money.

LYNCHING OF NEGROES.

Telephone wires in the vicinity Of
Dady, Fla, were cut last night, and
negroes we're reported to be fleeing for
their lives from that section.
Business was reported suspended late
yesterday, while farmers left their
fields to join posses bent on carrying
forward vengeance for the murder of
the little schoolgirl, Bessie Morrison,
who was slain last Friday.
Yesterday it was reported that q
negro had lent an amulet to one OF the
colorcd men alleged to have slain the
child This negro was Immediately
captured and rope put around his
neck. and as he swung from the limb
Of tree his body was shot almost to
pieces.
According to Information in Pensaco-
la, lie is the fourth negro lynchcd for
this murder. The cutting Of the telc-
phone wires made it impossible to learn
the cause of the hunt for negroes said
to be in progress last night.
