with the ground will recollect that while
it was generally level it was by no means
smooth There We're gulles and hollows,

plowed and graded. After it is rolled it
will he put down in grass and eventually
will be like a big lawn

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. April 2oo-1 ne

So ca lied "bathtub trust case today in a
decision handed down by the United
States circuit court here In proceedings
brought by the Caldwell Lead Company,
one of the de e1dants in the government
case against the so-cal!ed trust"
The lead company. at hearing con-
Quoted by government examiner in this
city. sought TO prove that 1t took no part
in the trust conspiracy alleged by the
government. In support of its contention
the lead company called witnesses U-no
are co-defendants in the prosecution
brought By the government. Edwin G.
Grosvenor. special a ssistant to the United
States Attorney General. instructed the
witnesses that under their constitutional
right they could refuse to answer any
question that might tend to incrimlnate
them.
Discussion arose and resulted in coun-
sci for the lead company making appica-
ton to the court to compel the witnesses
to answer
Contention of Mr.. Grosvenor.
Mr. Grosvenor contended that the pro-
ceeding was deliberate attempt on
the part of the defendants to call. one
another witnesses to. get immunity
from criminal prosecution. Counsel for
the lead company argued that any one
who testified against himself in a court
of equity should have no fear that his
evidence would be used in criminal prose
tuition
The court today handed down A long
opinion. in which the whole subject is fully
discussed. In closing. the court says:
I'VE hold that it was not the intention
of Congress in passing the immunity act
for the enforcement of the provisions OF
the Sherman law, either in civil or crimi-
nal proceedings. to extend immunity to
defendants called as witnesses by code
PENDANTS to testify in the latter's behalf
so that the motion to compel the wit
neSses to answer is ove.ruied.'

Farm Work Advanced.

Reports from various counties
show that spring work is more
advanced than usual. The eX-
tremely low price of tobacco is
making many prospective grow
ers hesitate and if contracts with
tenants were not already made
the area devoted to the weed
would be greatly curtailed. Hands
are hard to secure and while
they want more wages in many
places farmers are not willing to
pay the same as last year. In
consequence, it is thought much
land now devoted to cultivation
will be put in grass in the near
future. If clover seed was not so
high there would be a great deal
sown anyhow. For some reason
alfalfa has not been a success in
most sections of Kentucky and
what PROMISED to work a revolu
ton in farm methods few years
ago, is not now receiving much
attention. The area devoted to
potatoes in the State will be
largely increased notwithstand-
ing the low price received for the
last crop. Much more attention
would be given to fruit growing
if the seasons were not so uncer-
tain, but in many places the grow
ing of berries is attracting atten-
ton. Opinion is divided as to the
statues of the present crop but

Fifty Years Without Shaving.

Button Smith, one of the best
known characters of Petersburg,
had his first shave and hair cut in
fifty years to day and when he
left the barber and went home
it was an hour before his aged
wife would believe that he was
her husband.
He was eighty-five years old a
few days ago and his last shave
and hair cut were before the
presidential election in 1856.
Uncle Button" as he has been
known for generation, was an
original Republican, and in 1854
made vow not to shave or have
his hair cut for fifty years if his
party did not win in the ensuing
election, and he religiously kept
his pledge.
His hair reached nearly to the
ground and his beard was below
his waist, and both perfectly
white giving him a strange ap-
pearance anu making many be-
jieve he was deranged.
When the barber got through
shaving and cutting his hair that
which was taken off nearly filled
a half bushel basket.
Uncle Button" says that he
greatly misses his beard and he
is sorry now that he submitted to
tn barber. He looks forty years
younger so great is the transfer
nation by being relieved of the
heavy white beard and enormous
growth of hair. INDIANAPOLIS
