Is REACHED
TOP MILL ROAD WILL SOON BE
AN ACCOMPLISHED FACT.
City. County and Two Corporations
To Do The Wors-To Let
Contract Soon.

With a definite agreement on the
Top Mill road an accomplished fact.
the completion OF taat important
thoroughfare Is now merely a ques-
ton of a short time. Al a confer
ence held yesterday morning at The
Office OF the board of control between
the board. the county commissioners.
President Hubbard OF the Wheeling
steel and Iron company and General
Manager G.. o. Magic OF the Pan
handle Traction company, IL was
SSreed that each OF the four Interests
should provide one fourth OF the
$4,000 required TO complete the road.
Engineers OF the city and county
and the two big corporations start
I'd the work of checking the original
plans yesterday afternoon. As soon
as this work is completed and the
specifications prepared. bids will be
asked and the contractor will be re-
quired to start work Immediately up
on receiving the contract. IL is esti-
mated that the work can be done in
ninety days.
The Pennsylvania railroad has been
the stumbling block in the way OF
the completion OF the road for a long
time. The company. which cannot
fail TO benefit by the road, VAS asked
10 contribute. but endeavored to force
the city TO sell valuable property fol
"a small price as "a consideration.
fhis the city rightly refused to do
and the negotiations ended a few days
ago. The prompt action of the other
four interests is highly c-ommendable
and il is to hoped that no further
Obstacles will be encountered.

ANCIENT ROCK EAGLE
I'M PUTNAM COUNTY

EATONTON. Ca, May 2O.-On the
farm of Goodwin Scott, Sr., about six
miles out from this city. there is an In
dian relic. in the shape of a rock eagle.
which has been the Mecca of many in
terested in Indian legends and tradition
for many years past, ever since Putnam
county was first cut off from Baldwin.
The eagle is perfectly formed of rocks,
of almost uniform size. with it's wings
spread out like an eagle on an American
dollar, its head and feet almost perfectly
formed, although during the past few
years, unfortunately negroes and other
relic hunters have dug into the breast of
the eagle seeking buried treasures. and
almost destroyed that portion of the
eagles body in it's formerly perfect APP
pearance.
Mr.. SCOTS grandfather was one OF the
oldest settlers of this section, coming
here even before the Indians were all re-
moved, and it is stated that he was told
by the Indians that the rock eagle had
been there for many years before they
came to that part Of Georgia.
1t is also stated by government stu
dents of American anthropology, that
there are several of these rock eagles ex-
tending across North America from
northwest to southeast, as if built for
monuments, or to mark the paths of
travel, as they seem to be equally dis
tant in their number of miles apart. Mr..
Scott stopped the search and inroads of
relic hunters some time ago. although
there are many yet who would like to
make a further research into the depths
of the eagle.

earth so that the cloth is only about
five inches from the ground, to supply
the shade. The ducks are not placed in
small pens when very young, but are
allowed to roam about the general pen
at one end of which is a large tub filled
always within water.
The derivation of the phrase Like e
duck to water" is clearly shown here
when the tiny fowls scarcely out of the
incubator, go waddling for this tub.
In addition to the hundred young ducks,
Mr.. Hart keeps a stock of about about
80 old ducks, which he never allows to be
decreased.
Despite the size Of his place. which
would do credit to a life long breeder.
Mr.. Hart has been in the chicken bust
ness-that is the real chicken business
for only two years.
"Of course have had quite few barn
yard fowls about for my own consump-
tion for many years" he stated, ''but
about three years ago my wife. who
really does most of the detailed work,
prevailed upon me to go into the business
on a bigger scale.
i'At the start made the mistake, which
others before me have made hundreds of
times, of trying to raise good chickens
from a poor stock or strain.
"Of course 1 failed, and lost some mon
ey in the attempt. If you want to make
a success of the chicken business you
must start with good birds, however few
they are.
There was nothing to do except start
all over at the beginning again, and since
made the new start everything has been
all right.
There is no reason why a good hen. II
properly cared for. should not lay the
year round with the exceptin of moult-
ing or shedding time. Give your BIRDS
plenty of grass, bugs and worms, and
keep their temperature right and they
will continue laying. Care should be la
ken in the selection of the location of the
house. Curtains in bad weather will
make them all right If you don't put the
rootip1 pole in a draft. This is a point
not often thought of. but the worst thing
in the world for chickens is to roost in a
draft In that way they are like people,
and you have to look out for them.
"All breeders aref going to be troubled
with lice, mites and rats. For first two
the common methods and hard work are
necessary. and for the last 1t suffices to
say that I keep eight cats

CLEVER BUNKO SCHEME
Z OF FRENCH BANKER

PARIS, May 20.-A bunco scheme of the
first water has come to light through the
mysterious disappearance of an eccen-
trio banker named River, who had ac-
quired vast fortune by inducing the
credulous to invest their savings with him
under a promise to return 1 per cent per
day therefor
The curious person, in spite of the
vast business he trasacted, is said to have
subsisted wholly upon eggs and tea,
which he prepared himself in the seclu-
sion of a lonely little room containing,
by way of furniture, a camp bedstead and
a stool. He wore a moth-eaten, sandy
beard. obviously false. and busted him
self IN such seclusion that he was only
once or twice seen by any other visitors
than his two clerks.
Week after week the money poured in
to his Golfers in ever-increasing amounts.
till one day he mysteriously disappeared.
An investigation was set afoot and 1t was
found that he had made getaway, with
funds amounting to half million dollars.
: No trace has been found of the suspect
to date.

BRIGADE TO HIKE FROM
GALVESTON TO HOUSTON


GALVESTON, Tex, May 20.-Brig. Gen.
Albert L. Mills received official permits
sion from the war department today to
take the entire first separate brigade, in
Guiding the large wagon train, overland
10 Houston.
This will be the most extensive maneuv-
er yet undertaken by the troops now sta
toned in Texas, About ten days viii
be spent in preparation for the march.
The troops will cross Galveston bay to
the mainland on fiat cars. 1t isSestimated
that fully ten hours will be required 10
transport the 1900 soldiers and the wagon
train across the bay.
General Mills estimates that about five
days win be consumed in making the
march 10 Houston. the troops travelling
about u 1-2 miles per day. The brigade
will probably encamp near Harrisburg
for two days.
During the march the 1000 soldiers and
I75 officers will work out number of ma

i'm the pens. SGu other breeds to be
found in abundance are the White and
Barred Plmouth Rocks, all Of a long
Established strain.
SILVER SPANGLED HAMBURGS. !
In the breed line the Silver Spangled
Hamburg comes last. At present there
are only two hens and one cockerel of
this variety on the farm, but by next
year Mr.. Hart expects to have at least
two pens of them.
The Silver Spangled Hamburg, which,
according to Mr.. Hart, is seldom seen in
the south, resembles a game in size and
shape and is one of the prertiest Of pref
ty chickens. When II comes to color
the name Of the bird comes as near as
is possible 10 describe it. The Ham
burg is literally silver spangled, and its
silver on the black background, coupled
with the symmetry and proud carriag0
of the game makes a beautiful comb1na-
ton. The Hamburgs were recently
added to the stock on the farm, but
within a short time Mr.. Hart expects
them to be one of the most important
breeds on the place.
Mr.. Hart has a combination incubator
and brooder house, situated near the
bottom of one of the runs from the
incubator house is a model in itself.
Il suppose it is my own idea" mod
estly admits Mr.. Hart, but 1 really
just took what he considered the best
from the plans of other similar houses
and put them together"
NThe incubator house is in the cellar
under the brooder and the ground was
excavated for the purpose. Besides his
nine incubators, which have a combined
capacity of 1900 eggs, the cellar con-
tains the plant for sprouting oats, which
Mr.. Hart considers essential for his
fowls. and which is fed them each day
at noon. By his system ii takes only
about a week to have oat sprouts three
or four inches in height. The oats are
first swelled and then placed in little
boxes of the best soil and shifted from
sunlight to dark in order that natures
work can be quickened.
Above the incubator is found the brood
er house with a capacity of 900 chicks.
The whole house is only "A by, 16 feet, and
is divided into three-foot pens for the
tiny fowls. Each separate run is heated
by a kerosene lamp, while stove is
placed in the corner, where the youngest
chicks have their pens, and serves TO
give added heat when necessary to the
whole brooder. The house also has a
