Horse Thrown Over Fence.

Warren Sentinel.
Lightning performed peculiar trick
in the pasture of c. Hafele, Monticello.
Wis, during the storm last Wednesday
night. 1t struck horse that WIS feed
ing in a pasture and threw it over a
barb wire fence twenty feet into an
adjoining field. When found the animal
was dead and it's mouth was full of
green grass, showing it was feeding at
the time it was struck. There were a
few scratches on its legs on one side,
but there were no broken homes, no
decorations, and no signs Of a struggle
There were a few hairs clinRing to the
barbs where it is supposed the horse
went over the fence, but the fence was
not broken or injured. 1t sets one to
guessing how the animal got into the
next field, unless it jumped over the
fence before it was struck, in which
case it is thought its mouth would
hardly be full Of grass. To which the
Tribune asks; Why not, per chance the
horse had jumped the fence before the
storm II

The great autumn shows OF chrysan-
themums at Dangozaka, near Toxic,
offer many wonders to their crowds Of
visitors.
You will see the flowers In long
ranks, each plant a facsimile Of the
next beside 1t, with exactly the same
number of blooms on each. And not
merely that; the top bloom will be
fully opened, and so make one Of a
perfectly level line of fully opened
blooms; the next will be nearly
opened and again one Of similar
row; the flowers of the third row are
open to less degree: and so they de-
crease to the feet of the plants. where
a row of close green buds extends so
that the whole long rank presents q
constantly repeated scale of all the
beauties of the opening flower from
bud to fullest bloom. And the marvel
does not stop even here, for not only
the blossoms but the leaves are
matched IN number and situation. In
other places instead of straight lines
the plants are disposed fan fashion or
in the shape of an umbrella.

SOME GOOD THINGS TO EAT
Novel Combination Of Fresh Mush-
rooms With Sausages-DeIicIous
Egg Dish.

Have you ever tried broiled saus-
ages with mushrooms?" asks cor
respondent Of the Ep1cure.
"As matter of fact the sausages
are not broiled at all, but the smallest
OF breakfast sausages are laid In a
sizzling hot frying pan and cooked
brown on one side, then turned and
taken cut to drain on paper when suf-
ficiently cooked.
Some fresh mushrooms that have
been peeled are then set cooking IN
the sausage fat, and are served with
the sausages ON slices of toast which
have been buttered. For a change add
a few slices of bacon to the dish of
sausages before cooking the mush-
rooms.
"A certain egg dish that was IN
vented in a Latin quarter studio In
Paris is delicious. Butter some little
earthen dishes such as are used for
shirred eggs and break one or two
eggs into each Sprinkle with salt
and pepper, CRATE on a liberal quantity
of dry Gruyere cheese, add some bits
of butter, pour over cream to cover
and bake in q hot oven until the
eggs are set.
For another dish: Put a sweet
Mexican pepper on Pimento morrones

SATURDAY CLUB
HAS GOOD MEETING
MRS. A. G. NORTH READS VALU-
ABLE PAPER ON IRRIGATION
SUBJECT OF BIRD LORE
CONSIDERED BY ENTIRE CLUB

The Saturday Club met Saturday
afternoon at the home of Mrs. Win
ings. The feature of the afternoon
was a paper on Irrigation by Mrs. A.
C. North.
We often think or Irrigation as a
modern invention, but it was used
in Mesapo tamia Babylon and Egypt
5000 years ago. By this means arid
regions were converted into the gran
cries of the world. Even New Mexico
in our own country, has an irrigation
ditch of 5000 years service. The
Spanish settlers along the Rio
Grande were irrigating their gardens
seventy years before the settlement
of Jamestown.
Irrigation by English speaking
people is only about 80 years old. We
find it first In Utah, where little
hand of Mormon emigrants were com
PEELED to adopt it to avoid starvation
Twenty years later it came to be an
important factor in the development
of California and Colorado. In many
of our arid states in the West, the
value of the crops grown by irriga
tion, exceeds the output of the
u,;noc or factorioS
The conquest of our thousands or
arid acres is one of the problems of
the future. Our latest triumph is
the Roosevelt Dam In Arizona, a
structure so remarkable as to attract
he eyes of the engineers of the world

location In heretofore inaccessible
canyon. In order to build it, it was
necessary to contruct a road across
20 miles of desert, and over az miles
of rock requiring blasting; to install
a railway, a telephone system 100
miles long an enormous cement fac
tory, to cultivate two farms to supply
provisions to the workers, and to en-
ploy 600 Indians for several years
The government has expended nine
million dollars on this work.
1t has transformed the Salt River
Valley into a garden. It's settlers
are from nearly every state In the
Union and are nearly all American
born.

More Widows Than widowers.

The proportion Of remarriagea
shows an almost continuous decrease
says the registrar-general in his re-
port on the births, deaths and mar
riages in England and Wales during
1909.
The number of widows, he states. is
always much greater than that OF
widowers, because in the first place
men marry later in life than women;
secondly, because the duration OF
male life is shorter than that Of fe-
male life, and thirdly, because the
proportion of widows who remarry is
much lower than the proportion OF
widowers who remarry.
Marriages of persons described as
divorced have steadily increased and
in the year 1900 were the highest on
record.

points were brought out such as the
fact that among birds the female

are 900 species which migrate. The
cause of their migration is a great

The run of shad in the South has been
