Slaughtered. ..,...

"Baby jim" passed away in East
St. Louis yesterday at the age Of four
years, says the st. Louie Globe-Dem-
ocrat. He weighed at the time OF
his death $50 pounds. lie was the
biggest hog ever shipped to the Ma
tional, Stock Yards and was sold to
Armour C Co. for nine cents a
pounds.
"Baby Jim" had been an object of
much interest in Macoupin County,
! ILL.,, where he was reared. Theodore
Strobeck, of Brighton, ILL.,, kept him,
with the intention of waiting until
he reached an even 1000 pounds. He
reached this weight few days ago
and was at once sold to Travess e.
Travers. of Shipman, H., who sent
him to Dragon. Becker & Co., of the
National Stock Yards.
There was no wild scramble on the
part OF buyers to secure "Baby Jim"
and he remained in the pens for some
time before D. Pat Hanna, salesman
for the firm, could find any one to
take inc Dig l0llOW. ITdV6TS az lTdV-
ers had paid $40 for him. by weight
at seven cents pound. The packing
house people didn't want him because
he was too big to be killed in the ap-
paratus being constructed for Baby
Jim's" class. Armour & Co. finally
took the big fellow and sent him from
pig to pork over the cattle route,
using the apparatus constructed for
killing cattle and removing the skin
instead of scalding off the hair
When all this had been done and
the big hog was ready to be cut up he
still weighed 637 pounds The hams

He was of the Chester White breed
and was as active as an average 150-
pound porker. In shipping him down
from his Macoupin County home the
hog shrank twenty pounds, and the
firm that consigned him will lose
money, for he was sold at nine cents,

LATE NEWS NOTES.

For possibly the second time since
1t was presented to Jefferson Davis
during his incumbency as president OF
the confederacy, shortly after it Vas
struck off in the New Orleans mint In
the latter part of the year 1861, rare
50-cent piece of the Confederate
states of America was exhibited by
the owner, Mr.. Adams Of Brooklyn
at an informal dinner of the Numis-
matte club recently. Mr. Adams, who
recently purchased the coin in Phil
adelphia, values it at about $4,000.
With eighteen inches of unkempt
hair and beard almost hiding his
leathern features, Carl Klane, Rus
sian, fifty years old, has been found
in a cave near Pittsburg, Pa, and
lodged in the police station. He de-
clares that he escaped from Sibe-
rian exile colony twenty-five years
ago and boasts that in five years he
has not washed his face. The police
refused to touch him, and only by
threats to shoot did they drive him to

these changes in the bill would de-
feat it.

The Outstanding Brush.

A very satisfactory substitute for
the osprey is a brush Of gold wire
nearly as fine as thread. A gold or
nament holds the wire threads at tho
base. This resembles an Old World
boquet holder in its cornucopia form.
The outstanding brush Is used to give
military dash to fur toques, and is
invading the realm of millinery with
great success.

UNIQUE WAY OF KISSING GIRL
Philadelphia Man Arrested on Com.
pIaInt Of His Nelghbor, Who
Watches Servant.


Philadelphia.-That he might kiss
the pretty servant girl next door
through a hole in the party wall, John
Kysel of Eleventh and Pine streets.
Camden, mutilated the property, and
was held in 5000 bail by Justice Bud
ney.
The testimony tended to show that
Kysel is not on good terms with the
family of Felix Rudsin, his neighbor,
whose servant he admired. AS a re-
suit the servant was watched too
closely for Kysel to meet her surrep-
titiously.
There seemed only one thing to do,
and 'Kysel did it. He used a brace and
bit in the wooden partition in the real
kitchen, and for doing this Rudsin had
him arrested.
Kysel admitted he kissed the girl
through the hole in the wall, and that
almost every day they passed notes to
each other.
Rudsin caught the girl with her lips
to the hole. Not until she moved away
and he saw the hole did he understand
the situation. He then swore out the
warrant.
