that old quacks often reach twelve
and are great layers, he said. THAT
settles it, I'll git rid of mine and raise
Pekins."
We took picture Of two of his
quacks to show the usual farm duck
which many farmers raise when they
might breed the big profit payers.
The two just weighed seven pounds,
and this isn't much for adult ducks.
Let the farmers quit raising little
6shy favored puddle ducks and take
up the big Aylesbury or Pekin.
The Pekin is the better. as it grows
quicker, is the popular yellow, has a
finer grain and flavor and picks easier.

DISMISS BISHOP OF OPoRTo.

Portugal Officials Say PreIate Incites
People to Revolt.
Lisbon, Portugal. March S.-The gov
srnment has decided to dismiss the
bishop of Oporto on the grounds that
he urged the priests of his diocese to
read the forbidden pastoral letter and
also encouraged the people to revolt.
Several priests have been arrested
for reading the letter to their congre-
cations. The communication, while
setting forth that 1t is the duty of
Catholics to respect the constituted
authorities, even though these be hos
tile to Catholicism, adds that If new
law Is unjust and contrary to the law
of God it is not binding upon Catholics.

Great Loss of Life In Russian Theater
Due to Showman's Order.
st. Petersburg, March S.-The fact
that only twenty persons out Of 140
were saved in the fire at the moving
picture show at Bologoe Monday night
was largely due to the Snowman tell
ing the audience that the pictures
would be accompanied by appropriate
sounds and that they need not be
alarmed. When the explosion occurred
the spectators thought it was part of
the entertainment. Even the cries of
"Firew were received with laughter.
A number of men escaped by tram
pling the women and children under
their feet. On the other hand, work
man braved the flames fifteen times
and rescued about twenty persons, but
finally perished himself.

A farmer friend had bred from the

generation got smaller and smaller.
To him ducks were just ducks if
they had rubber neck and a quack.

we showed him our Pellins.
Sixty big fellows paraded before
him; he looked them over quietly, then
said: big ducks, them. Pretty old,
ain't?"
mo, just ten weeks"
"Ten weeks1 Thunder!'
1t was hard to convince him.
He took up young drake, balanced
him in hand and said, "Why, this
duck weighs nigh to seven pounds and

When we told him six to eight was
the usual weight of ten week ducks.

 A PARTISAN SPEECH
Said Speaker Was a Better Republican
 Than Prophet

Salt Lake City, Utah, Oct 5.-Pres- ident Taft politely but firmly reproved the president of the Young Mems Re- publican league of Utah, Fred w. Price, when the latter. in introducing him to an immense crowd at the state fair today, made a bitterly partisan speech. It was as the prospective re- publican candidate for the presidency in 1912 that MT. Price presented AIr. Taft, aud after predicting that he would be striumphantly elected and that November next year would find the ttdemocrarcy of Utah in it's GUS tomary place, deep down in the slough of despondency,'' he introduced the chief magistrate of the nation as William Howard Taft of Ohio.''
 T am here,2 said the president, em- phasizing each word sfgnifcan ntly, "as president of the United States There was lusty cheer from the crowd, which was followed by saving:
 My friend. the, president of the Young Mems Republican league of Utah, is probably better republican than he is a prophet" The president then entered into a discussion of his tariff vetoes, repeating the arguments and explanations he has made at oth- CT places during his trip.

LOOPING CONTINUES
 IN FLOOD DISTRICT.
Costello Now Being Poiiced-Wrecked
 Buildings Pulled Down.

Austin, Pa, Oct. 5.-All day long today the crash of falling buildings re- sounded over the debris-strewn plain where Austin stood before it was swept by last Saturdays disastrous flood. At the places where the wreck of building after building was piled in almost in extricable heaps, squads of men clam bered to the topmost points and made fast chains and cables. at which teams of horses tugged and strained until with a crash. a waN the side of a house, or a whole dwelling fell, in some instances 40 feet, a broken pile of lumber, brick and mortar.
 As fast as the wreckage was torn apart sledges or drays were piled to their capacity and the debris was drawn away. No additional bodies of victims were uncovered as result of the days work
 While satisfactory progress is being made. the work of clearing up is neces- sariiy slow.
 Since the arrest of several looters and the finding Of stolen property stored in houses near Costello, it has Leen deemed wise to police that section also. although the greatest footing was done on Saturday shortly after the dis aster and before the state constabulary arrived.
 Interest centers tonight in the in quest which will be opened in the schoolhouse here tomorrow at the di- rcctiof1 of District Attorney Nelson.
