HIS HENS ARE

Squire Baldwin.

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Are you
ready?
Welt Is neighborhood record
that Squire Hezekiah Baldwin OF
Cedar Grove. N. j., is a saving man
even according to standards set by
the most frugal Jerseyite. 1t has al
ways been an economic problem with
him whether the energy spent in sift
ing ashes paid for the disable coal left
after the cinders had been dispersed
This problem with him has been TO gel
the good Goals without expanding the
energy. (Note-SQuire Baldwin sits
his own ashes.)
Now-Squire Baldwin has a flock Of
hooded Brahmins which lay like auto
matte egg mills when the going ID

eat their heads off and don't produce
He cuddled up TO an idea recently
and tried it on the hens yesterday
The visible evidence of the expert.
ment was noted by Squire Baldwin's
neighbors. They attest to seeing a
cloud OF dust rising above his domain
on Ridge road. They investigated and
found his brood of Brahmins raising
ructions on the ash heap In search OF
corn which Squire Baldwin had mixed
adroltly with the ashes. The energy
OF the hens scattered the ashes and
cinders, leaving the partly burned
Goals, which Mrs. Baldwin can use to
excellent advantage in her kitchen
range.
But-The best Of the experiment Is
yet to come. The hens worked up so
much energy that they were moved
to lay eggs.
Whereat-They made for them
selves nests in the softest places at
hand, the snowbanks. and filled the
nests with the biggest harvest OF
eggs that Squire Baldwin has gather
ed since last June Neighbors who
counted the harvest will give their
names and addresses to sceptics.
Howsoever-Squire Baldwin. famed
for veracity. is in a Quandary how to
classify the eggs In Offering them to
the market. He is ready to guaran-
tee that they are not more than a
day old. On the other hand, the first
abode of the eggs was In snowbanks
and. technically speaking. they are
cold storage eggs.

ADMITS HE MURDERED
YOUNG WOMAN IN CEMETERY
Naval Prisoner Clears Baffilng Mys-
terry In the Death Of Miss schu-
macher in Rochester.

PORTSMOUTH, N. H.. Jan. "a
That the killing OF Anna Catherine
Schumacher, in the Holy Sepulchel
cemetery in Rochester, N. Y, on Aug
II was an accident is the contention
OF James Hail. the naval prisoner held
at the United States prison ship
Southery at the navy yard under sen
tence for fraudulent enlistment. He
admits having murdered the girl.
Halls confession was TO the effect
that he was beating his way about
the country last summer and on the
night OF Aug he was In Rochester
and slept In the cemetery. He hung
about the vicinity of the cemetery the
next day, securing food from nearby
houses and intended to sleep there
that night.
Late in the afternoon he saw Anna
Schumacher enter the cemetery with
bouquet OF flowers for her fathers
grave, and followed her until she was
in the lonely part of the cemetery,
where the grave was located. He APP
preached the girl and made a repulsive
proposal 10 her.
She shrank from him and tried to
run, but he caught her and stified
her cries while he assaulted her. This
accomplished, he murdered her,
although in his confession he claims
that the killing was an accident-that
he only intended to stun her.
When he found she was dead he
became frightened and sought for some
means OF disposing of the body, and
while searching about the vicinity OF
the crime he came upon a shallow
grave In the sand that had been dug
by some boys at play. Into this he
threw the mangled body of his victim
and covered II with several inches OF
sand. He made his way TO the tracks
OF a railroad, where he caught a
freight train and was we'll on his way
west before the body OF his victim
was discovered. As hours after the
crime
Hall comes originally from Mime
sofa, is OF Swedish birth and about 26
years OF age. Hall Is not his right
name, but he was brought up by a
family named Hall and has always
gone by that name. His real name,
which he has never used, he did not
give.

The couple had all arrangements
made for a wedding tour to Portland,
but when they were ready to take the
westbound train that evening they
found that some accommodating
friends had annexed their baggage
and sent it home to Elgin.
When they arrived at Elgin to get
their baggage some more friends"
met them at the station. The first
thing they did was to slip brace OF
handouts on the bridegroom and ask
him IL he believed In the elevation
OF man." to which he answered In the
affirmative.
Then they elevated him on a big
