CONSTANTINOPLE WAGING
WAR ON CANINE HORDES.
Former SuItan's Superstition Cast
Aside at Last.

To imagine Constantinople without
its hordes of prowling street dogs is
difficult. but the authorities of the OF
toman capital have started in earnest
TO rid the city of one or its most no.
torious features.
Last year contractor offered to pay
the Turkish treasury lump sum for
the privilege of clearing the city
streets of dogs. What he wanted TO
do with them did not transpire; per-
baps he expected TO recoup himself by
selling the skins for gloves Anyhow
his proposition met with no favor. To-
day the Turks would have gladly ac-
cepted his proposal. but no dog buyers
were forthcoming. so they tackled the
question themselves.
DerachmentS of policemen and
sweepers armed with lassoes and
wooden tongs and followed by a train
and raided the unsuspecting beasts
a few were spared at the intercession
of individuals who agreed to look
after the dogs. The others were driv-
en- away to an unknown fate.
AT the time of the RusSo-Turkish
war a large number of dogs were col
Iected and put on Bulwer island. one
of the Princes islands in the sea of
Marmora. so called after former
English ambassador who once owned
a country house there

John Davey of Kent. o.. brother of

ton wide crusade against the pestif-
erous English sparrow at Dayton, o.,
recently in the organization of the
Bird and Tree band and the adoption
of the following resolutions:
Inasmuch as the preservation Of our
trees and all vegetation depends on the
services of our native birds: and.
Whereas. The rapid disappearance of
our song birds is accompanied BY an
alarming prevalence OF disease among the
trees: and.
Whereas. This decrease of numbers Of
our cowOrkers. the native birds. IS due
largely TO the pugnacious and murderous
habits of the English house sparrow,
we. the undersigned. do pledge our
selves TO use every means to encourage
the restoration and preservation OF our
native birds and to destroy the crow. Eng

birds TO the end that vegetation may be
preserved to the use Of man and beast
Predicts Song Birds End.

robber sparrows are exterminated
speedily the song birds will soon be
driven from human habitations and

few years.
Mr. Davey looks upon a tree and
talks of 1t as living creature. An
extract from his Dayton remarks gives
an idea of his realization of the actual
life of the tree. as follows:
81 affirm a threefold proposition:
First All life is divine for the simple
reason that nothing but Divine power can
produce it.
"Second.-In all the realms of life the
laws of God are substantially one. with
slight notifications in their application.
"Third.-The life of the tree is as real as
the life of the human body. and this is
seen under the microscope, where the
pTotoplasmic activities are seen to be
conducted with Just as much inherent in

body.
This world can never be what fits
Creator designed it to be until we lay
aside all such conceptions as things be-
ing run by luck or chance. The nor
NAL condition of everything is health.
If man. animal or plant is suffering

Millennium Is Dawn of Power.
Man "a creature in the image of
Cod was created to have dominion
over the remainder of creation. and
just as soon as we learn that it is our
high calling to destroy the useless or
lower forms that the higher may hold
sway then under sanctiied human in

dawn.
What people see and talk about the

Numerous formalities have TO be
gone through before any of the seven
new peers will be able to take their
seats in the house of lords.
One of the most important matters
is the preparation of the patent. a long
strip of parchment, to the end of
which is fixed the wax seal. the color of
which varies according 10 the rank of
the new member. Another item is the
robe. made of scarlet cloth with three
doublings of ermine. the number of
bars varying according to rank Thus
a duke has four bars in front and the
same number behind. a marquis one
less, and so on.
Then there are preparations in re-
gard to making or changing coats of
arms. in connection with which fees
TO the extent of about so guineas are
paid by the recipient of a summons TO
the house of lords.
Altogether the financial diSburSe-
ments amount in the case of new
earl to between GOO and 700 pounds.

Return to Peach Packing.
One of the model diaries in the stat
of Washington. located near North va
kima. has received a shipment of mod
ern milking machines. and fifty white
trousered girls are thrown out of en-
ployment
The girls had been doing the milking
for several years. having displaced Jap
anese. who were found to be unhygi-
enic. Each girl wore a tight fitting
pair of trousers and short sleeved
jacket to match. which garments were
boiled and starched each day by the
farm laundress.
Each COW is bathed in warm water
and soap twice daily, combed and
brushed. The floors of the dairy barn
are scrubbed many times daily
The newly acquired machines are de-
signed TO draw the milk by a pumping
method. power for which is supplied
by a gasoline engine. 1t is claimed
one machine will be able TO do the work
of ten girls. and do it in a more hygi-
enic way The milking girls have don
ned skirts and are employed in pack
ing peaches and pears in the irrigated
orchards near by.

Want More Corn Raised.


"One of the weaknesses of farming
in New England" says ]. Lewis Els
worth, secretary of the Massachusetts
state board of agriculture and one of
the charter members Of the new cor
poration. lis the failure of the farmers
TO raise their own corn"
Very little corn is raised in Massa-
chuseus. We want to get the farmer
interested in this so that he will raise
his own corn. Formerly a farmer
would buy his corn. since that was
cheaper than raising IL Now the
price of corn has increased by 100 per
cent since 1896, and he is not buying
so much
The officers Of the exposition. in urg-
ing more general production Of corn.
explain that Massachusetts is exceeded
in value of product per acre by only
one tate-Connecticut. Despite the
fact that the cost of production is
probably higher in Massachusetts than
in the corn belt of the Mississippi val
ley. there is no doubt. they say. that
corn can be raised with a profit in this
state. for the average price per bushel
is higher than in most states.
In 1905 the average farm prices of
corn were as follows: In the United
States as a whole. IS cents: in Iowa.
"a cents: in Illinois. IS cents; in In
diana, 80 cents: in Massachusetts. 90

Ompense.
Naturally the first impulse of the
distant relative is to ask a lawyer or
a Judge Of some authority what course
he ought to pursue in the premises,
but as he thinks of doing this his at.
tention is taken by the warning in
the prisoners letter beseeching him
not to mention the matter to any liv'
ing soul lest the secret Of the valise
and the hidden recepticle be indis-
creetly betrayed.
The valise, after all, with its con-
cealed certificate of deposit, is the
key to the situation and possession
must be taken of it befeoer anything
can be done or said. This $50 cum
ningly set forth by the prisoner) is
very evident to the distant relative,
and so he quite frequently preserves
the secret intact and instead of con-
sulting a lawyer or writing to the
American consul general at Barcelona
he quietly sends a draft for the sum
demanded to the good priest who is
awaiting results. OF course he waits
in vain, and the poor, dead prisoner
and the good priest and the darling
daughter in the course of time pass
out of his life forever, leaving him
only an uncomfortable memory of the
money he so cheerfully contributed to
the confidence game.
For nearly twenty years these same
knaves have been practicing their
swindle, and it is needless to sug-
gest that they are very carefully or
ganized; they have confederates, not
only in the United States, but in most
other countries. The confederate in
custom select a man and find out all
they can about him; they get hold OF
family names, family origin, and fam.
lily characteristics. This information
is Transmitted to the rascals in Spain,
and letters are at once written to the
prospective victim. The scheme Is
presented and developed in a very
plausible way and many Of our fel-
low countrymen have ''bitten" prompt
ly and cheerfully.
Under the Spanish law felony
must be consummated before the po-
lice may act, and a mere attempt to
obtain mol,ey b false pretenses does
not appear to warrant arrest. The
money must be actually paid over
and the prosecuting witness must be
present in proprla persona to testify;
otherwise prosecution would be USE
less.

AM USE MENTS
GRAND

The vaudeville and pictures at the
Grand are drawing immense houses
this week, and tonight is the last
appearance of the present bill, so start
the new year right by coming to see
a good show in a clean house. The
bill is well arranged this week. The
pictures are two splendid comic and
one dramatic subject and the illus
trated song is very pretty and we'll
sung, and the acts are both first class
and different in character, so nothing
is monotanous.
The Christys in their black face
act are making a big hit. This is a
very classy act. Stanley and Scan
lon are exceptionally clever in theif
cast and their musical ingenuity is
quite novel.
There is always a good show at
the Grand.

Russian, and finally took refuge In
Spain, where he was apprehended and
charged with manslaughter.
The change of character, however
is immaterial, and in the future more
new characters will probably be in
troduced by the gang. The scheme is
the same, and the public is warned to
place no credience in such or similar
letters.
Every effort has been made by the
department Of state and it's represen'
tatives in Spain to unmask these
scoundrels and bring them to justice,
and the Spanish authorities have al
so been active, and several members
of the gnag have been appreehnded
and held for trial, but so far no con-
victions have resulted, owing probably
to the peculiarly OF the Spanish law
referred to in the report of the consul
gene raj at Barcelona.
