young white man, is behind the bars
1t the county Jail. awaiting trial in the
superior court for passing worthless
checks on two Macon citizens.

nier, dentist, was heeced out OF SO,
which was given him by Barnes in pay

MADERO SENDS PRISONERS
TO A BETTER PRISON

MEXICO CITY, Mex, Nov. 15.-Presi-
dent Madero Tuesday issued orders that
all prisoners in San Juan de Ulua, the
famous federal prison located on a uny
island in the harbor of Vera Cruz be
transferred TO Perote, jail built on the
mainland and which has just been re-
modelled along modern and sanitary
lines.
When Madero visited Vera Cruz a few
weeks ago, he visited the ancient Span
ish fortress in which hundreds of po-
litical offenders and convicted army men
have been confined for years. Shocked
by the unwholesome conditions, he
promised the prisoners that one of the
first acts of his administration would
be the adjustment of that Jail.
In the future the building will be used
as an arsenal.

Poultry Notes

The object of the utility poultry
clubs of England are to encour-
age the breeding of pure or cross
bred birds with due regard to
utihCy, by breeding only from Sc
lected layers; to give prizes to
the most efficient and marketing
poultry produce; to give prizes at
shows. for table poultry and eggs;
TO establish laying competitions
between pens of birds under prop
er management; to obtain the best
advice for members on all matters
relating to the selection, breeding
and keeping of poultry; to facili-
tate the change of blood from
good laying strains between MEM
bers. Why not such poultry clubs
in America?
Constipation in chickens is often
noticed during the summer
mon.ns. 1t has been advised to
use EPSON salts in the drinking
water. but this is a rather violent
purgative, and very gripping in ac-
ton. 1t is better to use oily lax
atives and purgatives. Linseed
meal mixed in the soft feed will
act as a gentle laxative. The
writer uses 1t daily in the mash
about per cent-the year round
and never, in consequence, has
any cases of constipation among
his fowls. Some prefer a few
drops of castor oil in the feed,
after making the chicken miss one
meal. and thereby rendering it
hungry.

K|MBALL PETITION IS
RETURNED TO MAKERS
City Clerk Bicktord's Construction Of the
Charter Finds insufficient Signatures
Attached 10 the Document.

derman L. kimball, given in full
with the exception of the signers
thereto in our last issue, was on
Tuesday returned by City Clerk
Bickford to the makers, together
with reasons therefor, Mr.. B.ckford's
construction of Section 12l of the
city charter deciding him that the
mum Der of signers to the document
was insufficient to demand it's pres
entation to the city council.
Mr.. Bickford finds that OF the
eighty-three signers to the petition
but thirty-six names are OF those
actually voting at the city election
on February 9Th, 1910. while forty
two names are of men not being
registered as voters in the ward at
that time, the remaining five names
being of qualified voters who reg.
istered but did not exercise their
franchise on election day.
In returning same Mr.. Bickford
tenders the following reasons for
his act, together with explicit in
structions as to the charter pro-
visions governing the fling of such
a petition:
"According to the terms Of Sec-
tion 121 of the Charter your petition
must contain at least 25 per
cent of the votes cast at the last
municipal election for the offite OF
the candidate sought to be removed
by the recall. For the office of al
der,nan of the Fourth Ward, in the
city of Virginia, Minnesota, at the
municipal election held February
9Th, 1910, there were cast one hun
dred and ninety-eight ballots. Twen-
ty-fve per cent of these names, that
is at least fifty qualified voters ac.
cording to the last poll list, should
have signed the petition. Accord
ing to my examination of the poll
list and your petition l find there
are only thirty-six qualified elect
ors according to the poll list, con.
tanned in your petition. Forty-two
names appeared on your petition
who neither registered nor voted at
the election referred to, and that
five petitioners are those who reg
istefed but did not Cast their votes
II certify, according to the terms
of the section referred to, that after
a thorough examination Of the poll
list in my office and referred to
ABOVE, that the petition is insnffic
lent, and [ return the petition to
you in this manner so that you ma y
take advantage Of the terms of the
charter in having the petition
amended and returned to me if you
DESIRE"
The validity of Mr.. Bickford's in.
terpretation of the reading ot the
section OF the charter pertaining to
the recall is not accepted as final by
the makers of the petition, as evi
denced by the issuance of man
damus, citing the city clerk to ap.
pear before Judge Hughes in spec
lal term at the city hall tomorrow
to show cause why the petition as
filed was not presented to the coun.
Gil for action.
| The action of Judge Hughes in
the matter will likely be final if he
finds the petition in proper form
and he sustains the judgment OF
the clerk in his findings it is likely
additional names of those who vot
ed at the last election may be secur
ed and the petition filed in amend
ed form.
