To Affiliate With the County
Poultry Association. "

That Richmond may have an annual
corn and poultry show in the future,
is the opinion of Joseph Helms, To-
cal agriculture authority, in announc-
ing the plans of newly organized
grain society that purposes to unite
with the Poultry association in arrang-
ing a big show representative of the
whole county, to boost local farming,
next year.
The plan of the new exposition is to
have in addition to all the classes OF
poultry shown at the exhibit last week,
displays Of all seeds and grains pro-
duced in this district. An attempt
will be made to interest Wayne county
boys in the society.
To discuss the project, all grain
growers are invited to meet at one
o'clock Saturday afternoon in the Sec
ond National Bank. If this meeting
votes favorably on the scheme, repre-
sentatives of the new grain associa-
ton will appear at the annual gather
ing of the poultry association Tues
day evening, to secure the co-opera.
ton of that body.

STORIES OF R0ssINI.
His Dread Of Thirteen and Friday and
Coincidence.

HE Dread Of Thirteen and Friday and
Coincidence.
Rossini had scant patience with
amateur composers. One such once
accompanied the manuscript OF his
latest composition with Stilton
yheese. Of which he knew Rossini to
I've fond. He hoped Of course to have
letter praising his work. \ letter
came, but all 1t said was: Thanks. l
like the cheese very much"
When Rossini was rehearsing one of
his operas in small theater in Italy
he noticed that the horn was out CT
tune.
"Who is that playing the horn in
such an unholy way!" he demanded.
1T Is l." said a tremulous voice.
"Ah, 1t is you. is it? Well. 90 right
home" 1t was his own father.
Rossini's whimsicality extended even
to his birthday. Having been born on
Feb. 30. in leap year, he had of course
q birthday only once in four years.
and when he was seventy-two he face
t;ously invited his friends to celebrate
his eighteenth birthday.
All his life be had a dread OF the
number thirteen. US well as OF Fri
days He never would invite more
than twelve to dinner. and once when
he had fourteen he made sure of an
understudy who would. at a moments
notice. have been ready to come should
one guest have missed. And. though
this was double superstition. he died
on Friday, Nov. 13.-New York Sun.

WOMAN IS BITTEN
BY HER PET DOG

A woman living on the West Side.
whose name is withheld by the attend
ing physician was bitten ON the hand
Thursday by pet dog. The animal
had been kept chained during the
epidemic of rabies and it is not known
whether it had contracted the disease
The head OF the dog. which subse-
quently died, was sent to Indianapolis
for an examination. and the results
viii! be known in few days. The wo-
man was bitten through the hand. the
dogs fangs badly decorating the
member. Officer Vogelsong killed a
dog thought to be rabid, after an ex-
citing chase near the home of this
woman several weeks ago, and it Is
though possible the affected animal
might have bitten the woman's pet at
this time.

history Of the Sardlnv.

SVSOSOVy ~ wv SOTOsUVs
The sardine has been hOnored with
Q history. the writer being no less a
parsonage than a member Of the So
ciete Academique Of Nantes. The sar.
dine In the early days was brought in
in small boats. Then came u police
ordinance In 1873 In the interest Of
the poorer classes against the monop-
olist. Owing to the police ordinance
the sardine was a source OF livelihood
to the Bretons. Joseph Cillin. whose
name is still revercd in Nantes. first
prepared the fish with oil. His ven.
ture was great success. and he had
many imitators. In 1885 there was
something like crisis In the sardine
industry. Millet, who was the chief
curer. had his factory indicted as a
nuisance. but the difficulty was over
come by removing it from the center
Of the town to the shore. Although
the fame of the sardine was firmly
established. It was only In 1866 that
e received its apotheosis. Then It
was shown In the Paris exhibition

AIR CURRENTS.

The Forces That Operate to Make the
Wind Blow.
In reference to u;r currents and the
reasons why the wind blows the as
tronomer royal of England explains
that air consists Of gaseous particles,
all trying to get away from one an
other. and that under certain condi-
tons they can be compelled to come
closer together by contraction or forced
to ny further apart by expansion. A
quart bottle. for example. holds twenty
two grains Of air at the temperature
Of 70 degrees. If the bottle be cooled
by surrounding it with ice the air In
side contracts. When this occurs more
air rushes in through the bottles neck.
The quart of air now weighs more
than twenty-five grains. If the bot
tie be heated the air it contains ex-
pands. its tiny particles ny further
asunder. and many of them escape
from the bottle altogether. There is
still quart Of air. but it weighs much
less than the original twenty-five
grains.
Now, consider the earth and the sea
under the influence Of varying degrees
Of the suns heat Where the heat Is
greatest the air Is made lighter and
expands. Where the heat Is least the
air is unexpanded and heavy. Both
the hot and the cold air have weight.
but the cold. being the heavier. is
drawn more effectively down to the
ground. In doing so it drives the
lighter air up out Of its way. just as
a lump of lead dropped into pail of
water forces some of the water up
ward. II the earth were equally warm
at every part and continued at con-
slant temperature wind could not e1-
ist. 1t "blows" because Of heat and
gravitation. In other words, air moves
from the place where its weight or
pressure is most toward the place
where its weight or pressure is least.

Why Should
CutiCura SOAP?

"There is nothing the matter
with my skin, and I thought
Cuticura Soap was only for skin
troubles" True, it is for skin
troubles, but its great mission is
to b,rs~st skin troubles. For
more than a generation its deli
cate emonient and prophylactic
properties have rendered it the
standard for this purpose, while
ito extreme purity and refreshing
fragrance give to it all the advan-
tages of the best of toilet soaps.
It 10 also invaluable in keeping
the hands soft and white, the hair
live and glossy, and the scalp
free from dandruff and irritation.
While its first cost is a few cents
more than that of ordinary toilet
soaps. it IS prepared with such care
and of such materials, that it wears
toa wafer, often outlasting several
cakes of other soap. and making
it, use. in practice, most econoa,-
ical. Cuticura Soap is sold by
druggists and dealers everywhere,
but the truth Of these claims may
be demonstrated without cost by
sending to "Cuticura," Dept. M,

WHERE WAS THAT EGG2

Last week our Union Bridge Cor
respondent told of an occurrence
which puts u to thinking. IL was
this: Nearly two years ago John
Brown, an employee Of d. Fred. Englar
a provision dealer in Union Bridge,
while Grating eggs for shipment to
Baltimore, wrote hi name and al
dress on one of them. lie had almost
forgotten the incident until one day
last week when he received a postal
card from a young lady Of Leicester,
Md, informing him that she had pur-
chased an egg with his name and
address written upon it. And, as he
had not written his name On another
egg in the meantime, it was undoubt-
eddy the one upon which he placed
his signature nearly two years ago.
Now where was that egg? 1t must
have been in cold storage. And very
probably the purchaser thought she
was getting a fresh egg. Too bad Or.
Wiley's resignation prevents MS look
ing into this problem, for it should
certainly be a matter Of interest to
him Al well a. to everyone who buys
and eats eggs to have some way Of
knowing whether or not they are
moderately fresh or not. We have
been informed, however, that in a
great many markets in the large cities
are sold eggs which are labelled three
different ways according to price:
Eggs Fresh Eggs Very Fresh
Eggs"
But, to return to our egg story, un-
fortunately it couldn't even be the
first chapter in romance, for since
writing his name On that egg, Mr.
Brown has been married

THE DISASTER TO THE STEAM
SHIP TITANIC.

The magnificent steamship Titanic
Of the White Star Line, which sailed
from Southampton on the 18th, in
slant, and which was wrecked off the
coast of Newfoundland, by striking an
iceberg, On the morning of the 18th
instant, involving the loss Of 1900
lives, has shocked the entire world.
The ship was the largest, and in
Ait its appointments, the most luxur-
ious, that ever braved the waters Of
the Atlantic, and was making her
maiden trip.
Her construction was the highest
type of marine architecture, and was
believed by her builders to be unsink-
able. But when at a speed of 81
knots an hour she struck this hugh
mass OF solid ice, rising $50 feet
above the sea level, and with depth
no one could tell, it was found that
this expectation so confidently held
was fallacious, and that in hours
and 20 minutes after the crash, she
went down to the bottom of the sea,
carrying with her, to their watery
graves, the largest number of human
beings ever lost i'm sea disaster of
which we have record. There were
between 600 and 700 persons saved
from the wreck, by being put INTO
the small boats, and subsequently
taken aboard the friendly steamer
Carpathia of the Cunard Line, which
had fastened to the scene in re-
Spouse to the wireless call Of dis
tress sent out by the stricken steam
er. The survivors were mostly wo-
men and children, and were safely
landed in New York a few days there
after.
There are many. conflicting &C
counts of the disaster, as would nat
urally be the case under such cir
cumstances. The ship was So feet
long, and things that would be TAX
ing place at one part of the ship
could easily be unknown to those
who were in other parts of the vessel
There il pretty substantial agree
ment, however, that discipline was
well maintained, and there was moth
ing like panic among the passengers
There were many instances of heroic
conduct upon the part Of men, who
