R|TCH GETS SOME
GOOD ADVICE
The Court AdmOniSheS
Him to Mend His Ways
HAWLEY PRISONER RELEASED
FROM JAIL PENDING GOOD
BEHAVIOR

1t rests right with you. It's for
you to behave yourself. / want you
to go down there and help support
your wife. You can go now"
Such was the good advice Judge
Alonzo T. Searle gave Ira Ritch,
Hawley, before permitting him to go
home, Tuesday morning, sentence
being suspended by the Court, pend
ing the defendants good behavior.
Ira Ritch was brought into court,
morning, and told the
Judge that he had been in Jail one
month to a day.
Following District Attorney M. e.
Simons' motion for his sentence,
Judge Searle soundly lectured the
prisoner saying:
" Now, Mr.. Ritch, we have been
investigating your case and we
don't find anything good about you;
nothing but evil and that continu-
Gus. You don't work. You don't
support your wife. You get intoxi-
Gated. In spite of that your wife
now comes and asks us to let you
of.
We think the time you had in
jail ought to be lesson for you. If
your wife makes any other complaint
we SNAIL impose sentence upon you
to the full extent of the law"
Ritch tried to interrupt the Judge
at this point with the usual argu-
ment that he was not altogether to
blame, but the Court cut him short,
and told him to understand that
he was not discharged but sentence
is simply suspended during good be-
havior."
Ritch skulked out of the court
room like whipped cur, and it is to
be hoped that when he gets to Haw-
ley, he'll behave like a man, and not
let his wife support the family by
taking in washing as she has been
compelled to do in the past.
1t will be remembered that several
weeks ago Mrs. Ritch wrote the Dis
trict Attorney telling him that
their home would be happy
dream, if her husband would
stick to his work"

Accepts the Premiership For
Limited Monarchy.
MAY RESULT IN REPUBLIC.
Man of the Hour In China Will Not
Coeroe Seeding Provinces, Hoping
to Win Them Gradually to the
Throne-Will Form Cab
met at Once.

Peking, Nov. 16.-Yuan Shih Kai has
accepted the premiership. The an
nouncement is not made officially in
these words, but the official Gazette
publishes a communication over Yuan's
signature in which he thanks the
throne for appointing him prime min
lister, which is interpreted as equiva-
lent to his accepting.
1t is not known whether he changed
his mind under imperial pressure or
whether his repeated refusals were
merely due to the oriental modesty
with which the best of honors is ira
ditionally met. The acceptance mate
rally improves the situation, anyway
temporarily.
Yuan told friends that he intends to
form a cabinet and carry on the gov
ernment in behalf of the throne as a
limited monarchy. He relies upon the
support of the provinces, but if any
insist upon independence he will not
coerce them, hoping gradually to win
them to allegiance to the throne. Yuan
evidently is doubtful of his ability to
uphold the monarchy, being very much
aware of the widespread disaffection
and if the present state of chaos con-
tinues 1t is expected that he will openly
declare for republic.

TRIES SUICIDE WITH SAW.
Attack of Acute Dementia Causes
Strange Act.

Utica, N. Y, Nov. 16.-Arthur Steen-
burg of Dolgeville set to end his life,
but failed in his purpose and now is
in hospital with a fair chance to
survive his injuries.
Steenburg, who is twenty-five years

through second story window at his
home, but beyond cutting himself Sc
verely on the face and hands he was
not injured. Thereupon he rushed to
the apartment of friend in a Dodge
vile hotel, where he found a hack
saw. Seating himself on chair,
Steenburg attempted to decapitate
himself with the tool, saving his
throat nearly through to the jugular
vein before his strength gave out and
he lost consciousness. Steenburg for
several days has been suffering from
an attack of acute dementia.

1t is intimated that there is a wide

the government will be able to extract
more comfort from the decree than
now seems possible in the light in
which the public has understood it..
The attorney general expects that a

ut is not rare sight to see boys

cannot estimate the evil done through
mock representations of bloodshed and
crime. .'fE#
"The report of the district attorney

Why Trees Fail To Bear.

A fruit grower from West Vir-
ginia writes to Prof. H. A. Surface,
Economic Zoologist of the State De-
partment of Agriculture, desiring to
know the cause of the failure of his
apple trees to bear fruit.
The Hoologist replies as follows:
Replying to your recent letter
asking why your large Northern
Spy trees do not bear fruit, l beg to
say that there may be one or two
or more causes of this. The ground
may be too rich or fertile for trees
to bear fruit abundantly. On very
fertile soil they are liable to grow
vigorous, and will not stop their
growth to bear heavily.
Another is, that this variety is
not so liable to bear heavily as do
certain others. / would recommend
that you prune the trees rather Sc
verely. OF course, cutting the upper
branches rather than the lower, so
as to form low-headed, open-topped
trees. Spray when the buds are
swelling with the boiled lime-sulfur
solution, and again after the flowers
have dropped with the dilute lime
sulfur solution, with about two
pounds of arsenate of lead in each
fifty gallons of the solution.
If the ground appears to be rath-
er fertile, it is not advisable to add
more nitrogen fertility. Some wood
washes or other form of potash fer
tilizer, and also some phosphoric
acid in the form of ground bone, or
Thomas Phosphate Stag, ground Car
olina rock will prove valuable. About
ten pounds of the potash fertilizer
and about the same of the phosphate
fertilizer scattered around each tree
little farther than the branches ex-
tend, may prove very useful"
