BRIBERY CASES.
Owen j. Evans Turns States Evidence
and is Fined $500.

Columbus, Ohio, June 5.-What
prosecuting attorneys have been hop
ing for during several weeks hoppen-
ed to-day when member of the
Legislature confessed in open court
that he had accepted a bride and
declared his willingness to go before
the. grand jury and make clean
breast of all his knowledge concern
ing legislative corruption.
The legislator is Owen J. Evans,
member of the House calendar COM
mittee, upon whom much criticism
was based Immediately preceding the
bribery disclosures. Evans spent
the day before the grand jury, and
will be witness again tomorrow.
A new and large list of indict-
ments is predicted as a result of his
giving way. Evans was indicted
three weeks ago for soliciting bride,
and was indicted twice to-day for
solicitation and accepting brides. To
one indictment he pleaded guilty,
and at the suggestion of Prosecutor
Turner the court imposed only a $500
| fine instead of penitentiary SEN
tEce The other two indictments
were laid away temporarily.
For Evans, his council, Thomas H
Clark, stated:
| 1--WE could have had all the money
We wanted to conduct this mans
defense, but we could not afford te
conduct it on what we considered
perjured testimony. We, therefore
advised him to plead guilty

St. Taanv ssm 4 sa he The told e thas

~ of them read the Progressive
Farmer. AS soon as we started the
plows in the clover, the ploW turn
ing the burrows being drawn by
fine pair of grade Percherons, and
followed by a subsoiler drawn by
stout pair of mules (not little cotton
mules), said to Mr.. Carr: "You
have one man there who knows how
to plow. He has an eleven-inch pillow
and is edging up his elevn-inch fur
rows" The average negro with
'rIcw lige that would try to turn
fifteen inches and flop it over and
makes ridges and burrows on the
subsoil. 1t was noted, however, that
in his edging up the burrows there
was a line of clover heads not cover
ed. i told him that was all right,
for if the clover is turned under TIT
il is apt to cut off the rise OF the
capillary moisture, and it is project
ly easy to chop up with the disk har-
row all the clover heads that pro-
trude. and that being near the sur
face, they will tend to prevent wash
ing.
Keep the CultivatOrs Going.
Now, l would like every reader of
The Progressive Farmer to determine
that this season shall show no turn
| ing plows in the corn or cotton fields.
The smooth harrow at the start and
the weeder will enable you to keep
| the rows clear of grass, and the rid
ing cultivator will enable you to get
! over the crop so rapidly that the
grass will have no chance even if
the weather turns wet, as it is apt
| to do in July after an early dry spell.
But the dry. weather We have been
in most sections this May will
leave no excuse for grassy cotton If
the harrow and the weeder are used
But do not be in too big hurry
| to start them after rain. Let the
surface crust get dry enough to
crumble finely as the weeder passes

Mr.. Bryan's reply, made public
from the pulpit, was as follows:
ALLOWING business and pleasure
to consume all the time, so that none
is left for the cultivation of the home
life We are busy making money
and hunting for a good time. Home
religion is also neglected

Lightning Kills Few.

In 1896 lightning killed only 169
people in this whole country. Ones
chances of death by lightning are
less than two in million. The
chance from liver, kidney or stomach
trouble is vastly greater, but not If
Electric Bitters be used, as Robert
Madsen, of West Burlington, Ia,
proved. Four doctors gave him up
after eight months of suffering from

AS has been the custom for years,
owing to the lateness of the. seasons
here, Memorial Day was not gener-

those who have relatives and friends
buried here drove out to the ceme-

flowers on the graves. Business was
generally suspended in the afternoon
and nearly everybody went to the
ball game. The second Sunday in
June will, we presume, be observed
as Memorial Day, as it has been for
some years past.
