OF unwatering the immense area 700
feet below the present water level.
Under the present workings is this new
Cripple Creek; it is roughly four miles
long by three miles wide and its ore
deposits are more than 700 feet thick.
The tunnel first encountered what
is believed to be the main water
course in the zone of braccia just be-
yond the phonolyte dixie. The flow
was 5000 gallons a minute, of which
1900 were from the FL Paso shaft on
Beacon Hill, connection with which
was made on November IL. At the
present time, the El Pasa shaft is
practically dry, having been drained
from the 700 to the 1300-foot levels.
The water in the entire district is re-
ceeding steadily and the effect is no
tieed in every section. Water in the
&c. X. & NJ, adjoining the Ell Paso, has
fallen rs feet; in the Elkton, two feet
and at theGanite in Victor, one foot
in three days, and the Mary McKin-
ney. sunk to water level, is dry. In
the Portland on Battle Mountain, two
miles from the breast of the tunnel, a
lowering of one foot within the last
week is reported.

ThorOughfare in Worcester,
Mass, Queer Breeding Place.
Frog With Five Legs Was the Founda-
tIon Of Museum Of curiosIties
Which Is Constantly Gain
ina In Size.

Worcester, Massey the recent ar
rival Of a four-legged chicken and q
tailless kitten at the homes Of Mrs.
William Scott and Mrs. Joseph War
bis, Cairo street, this city has once
more heightened its fame as the New
England street Of freak curiosities.
BY one Of the curious twists Of
chance this thoroughfare, although
only 9 block in length and occupied
by about 20 modest families, has
arisen to a pinnacle Of renown seldom
equaled by any street In the world.
The advent recently of the four
legged chick, the offspring Of q Rhode
Island Red hen with q brood Of about
rs other children, and owned by Mrs.
William Scott, 81 Cairo street, and the
arrival the day following Of kitten
minus a tail, freak seldom heard Of
among cat fanciers, has resulted in
bringing hundreds of curious people to
get q glimpse Of this street Of freaks
and its curiosities.
The four-legged chicken arrived on
the peaceful scenes Of Cairo street 70
Gently, the tenth in succession Of TIE
IS fluffy babies that broke away from
their shells and began to shrill little
strains Of Joy skyward on that same
morning.
Since Mr.. Scott one afternoon about
two years ago discovered frog with
Eve legs hopping about in his back
yard and then little later found him
self the possessor Of cat with a
screw tail, the advent Of any common
place freak arrival in his neighbOr-
hood has ceased to create much Of a
sensation, but when Peggy, the four
legged chicken, made an appearance
there was a gathering Of the neigh
bors, and 1t was conceded that Cairo
street was easily understanding It's
reputation for being the birthplace Of
freaks
The chicken was of the exact size
Of its multitude of brothers and SIS
tiers and appeared to have arrived
from an ordinary sized egg. But there
were the four legs-two stocky ones,
upon which Peggy roamed about, and
two others, one each just behind the
two larger. The second pair were per-
fectly formed, only the legs were

little shorter. and for that reason did
not permit the claws to touch the
ground.
However, this did not seem to mat
ter to the strangely formed Peggy, for
she tumbled over her brothers and
sisters as actively as any Of the rest
and piped defiance at every stranger
among the many who came to see this
feathered wonder.
But the fame Of the four-legger had
scarcely been sounded when Mrs. Jo-
seph Warbis, who lives just across
the street from the Scots, announced
the arrival Of a cat minus a tail at her
home.
Instantly attention became attracted
across the street.
Interested neighbors from near and
far, besides many strangers, took trips
to Cairo street to the freak arrivals.

by name, a tiny black ball Of fur
spotted with white. had assuredly
maintained the reputation Of Cairo
street. Not a sign Of tail was ap.
parent. EYen the bobtail Of the mother
was missing on the son.
And just now the freak street resi-
dents are apparently waiting for the
coming Of the next freak wonder that
will add to the roll Of fame there.
For 1t is almost devoutly believed
Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1910-07-07

that curiosity is due to happen along
this thoroughfare at regular stated in.
tervals of time.
The past history Of the street, as re-
called by its old residents, has In
cluded half dozen animal deviations
from the rule that have upon arrival
stirred up a seven days wonder in the
district.
A few years ago family who moved
into one Of the tenements there
brought with It a live snake Of the
adder variety, which was kept in a
gilded cage covered with a mesh wire
and was fed upon grasshoppers and
tadpoles. The strange pet created so
much terror along the street that
finally its owner was obliged to move
away. Only a short time later a resi-
dent of Cairo street, who owned a
pair Of geese which he kept In a pen
in his back yard, found the twain one
day rolling on the ground. apparently
dying.
Investigation proved that bottle
containing wild cherries soaked in
brandy had been emptied into the
yard and that the reckless pair had
gorged themselves upon the cherries
until both had accumulated a stagger-
ing Jag.
Another animal belonging to a resi-
dent Of the street was a pet calf. with
a stub tail and a penchant for gnaw-
ing bones and chasing cats like a dog.
Another was a parrot that by scream
ing fire terrified the entire street on
several midnight occasions.

AmArIean FIRST Suggested GIorified Co
Carts In Japan-Japanese Also
Claims Credit.

London.-Twenty years or so ago
when railways in Japan were yet few
and motor cars undreamed Of the COM
mon method Of travel for natives and
foreigners alike was the rickshaw.
Horses were scarce and Of indifer-
emit quality, the bicycle had hardly
made its appearance in the far east,
so practically the only means Of get
ting about the country away from the
main line Of the railway between To-
kyo and Hiogo was in the modified
perambulator which is known all over
the world as the rickshaw.
There are q number of versions Of
its invention and to whom credit
should be given for 1t. The Japanese
themselves claim II for q paralytic old
gentleman Of Kyoto, who some time
before 1868, finding his palanQuin I'M

Young Japan" is that an American
named Goble, half cobbler and half

where about 1857.
The FIRST official application to b0
allowed to manufacture rickshaws
was, however, made in 1870. They
were soon being turned out In hun
dreds and thousands, for the middle
class Japanese found 1t a cheap and
comfortable way Of travelling long or
short distances and there was an In
exhaustible supply of men eager to
turn themselves into beasts Of burden
IN order to earn the high wages which
the employment brought them. Curl

CARE OF PoUIrRY.

It does not require much hard work
to keep a flock in good condition in
the summer but absolute neglect will
often completely destroy the winter
egg-producing qualities Of not only the
old hens but the pullets as well.
If you have not removed every win
dow in the chicken house and substi-
tuted wire netting in order to provide
perfect ventilation do SO at once.
Better that the chicks roost in the
trees than that they be confined in a
vermin-rfdden building.
Body lice wifi worry aock to
death. or SO nearly so as to destroy its
usefulness. These can be killed but
not easily.
Persian insect powder will do the
business. 1t should be applied with a
powder spray by one person while an
other holds the fowls by the legs so
that the powder may reach every part
of the skin through the disturbed
feathers.
