hens are kept on the average farm
the waste about the buildings and
on the farm can form but small frac-
ton Of the total feed consumed, and
marketable grain must be used very
largely for their feed. The cost Of
keeping hens then greatly increases,
and unless special attention is paid
to marketing, the profit per hen is
decreased
To obtain the most eggs the hens
must be given a good clean, COM
Portable house in which to sleep
nights, and to feed and exercise dur
ing cold and stormy days. Special
attention must be paid to keeping the
house free from mites. This is best
done by spraying with kerosene oil,
kerosene emulsion, crude carbolic
acid, or some OF the coal tar disin-
fectants. The hens body must be

deadly to the lice and do the hen no
harm. Waste OF eggs must be pre-
vented by keeping the nests clean and
well Uttered with soft materials such
as fine straw, hay or shavings, provid-
ing plenty OF nests. and doing every
thing possible to prevent breakage OF
eggs in the nests.
Many thousand dollars every year
are lost by breakage in transit due to
soft shelled eggs. TO prevent this
attention should also be paid to giving
the hens abundance of lime in such
form as lime rock. oyster shells or
broken egg shells, so that all of the
eggs will have strong shells to insure
safe marketing.

a reference to his London bankers,
and also another to one of the best
known Of the financiers in Lombard
street. In due course communicate
ed with both firms, and received ans
wers which set every doubt about the
financial position of Kershaw Klein
at rest.
/ did not hear more Of Klein for
some fifteen days, at the end of which
time he wrote saying that Hermann
Rudisic was with him at Basingstoke;
and that they hoped to call upon me
on the following Friday. The march
of events was from that time quick.
On the Thursday / read in daily
paper of an accident in Berkshire to a
CHILEAN visitor, who had been thrown
from his carriage and seriously hurt.
The account said that his life was
despaired of, and that he was then
lying at the house of his host, the we'll
known Colonel Kershaw Klein, who
had taken Lord Aberly's place, the
Woodflelds. On the Friday morning
I received a long letter from the
colonel deploring the accident and the
delay, more especially because his
commission to purchase the stone ex-
tended only to the 10th of August, and
it was then the third. He hoped, how
ever, that matters would look bright
er at the end of that time; and would
bring his partner to London the mo-
ment he could travel.
Now, at the first thought, this in
telligence set all the inherent suspi-
cion, which is part Of me, at work
once more. Suggestions of doubt
rose again and again, instantly to be
suppressed. / had already come to
the determination to put from my
mind suspicion both of the count and
his daughter, when there came to me
by the afternoon delivery another let
ter concerning the matter; but this
was anonymous, and In a hand did
not know. 1t was a curious scrawl
written upon a slip of account paper,
and its contents were but these
words

There was a well-turned-out wagon
cite to meet us when we reached
Basingstoke; and after a drive of
something under an hour through
some of that glorious pine scenery of
southern Berkshire, we entered a

you the other morning not to trust
yourself with the man; I say now, ac-

This was plainly from my friend of
Hyde Park; and I confess that his
pompous mysteriousness and pretence
of knowledge amused me. Even he no
reputation, nor advised me now to
avoid him. His letter finally quieted
my scruples, and from that moment
I resolved to daily with them no long
err; and to let no silly fears delay the
negotiations for the sale of the treas
ure of White Creek.
In this resolution I waited rather
anxiously for the coming of Klein and
his partner, but three days went, and
I saw nothing of them; it being on the
Monday morning at eleven O'Clock
that the former drove up to Bond
with his daughter into my private
Office. He seemed in a great state of
distress, saying that Rudisic, although
better, was still unable to set foot
to the ground; and begging me as the
time was so short to take the great
jewel to Berkshire-his house was
just across the line dividing the coun-
ty from Hampshire-and there to set
tie the matter that very day. I heard
him mechanically; my eyes glued on
the exquisite picture which his daugh-
ter made.
"Come down today" said he, 'and
bring your man with you in case we
don't do business. and you have to re-
turn alone. I don't like mailing with

The worst case of interference
with the wheels of justice ever re-
corded in the United States, took
place in Virginia last week. A mem
Der of the Allen gang was sentenced
to a year in'the jail and his brothers
and supporters Immediately killed
the judge, prosecutor, girl, one of
the jurors and wounded several other
persons and the prisoner escaped.
The prosecutor had beeen doing
his duty as his oath required and the
jury had decided the gangster guilty.
1t was then up to the Judge to pro-
nounce sentence and he did so under
the law governing the case and in
accordance with his oath.
The gang has defed the law for a
long time and declared that not a
one of its members should ever be
sent to prison. None of their crimes
were bad enough to draw the death
penalty up to the time of the court
room tragedy. Now they have be-
come genuine outlaws and are hunt
ed throughout the mountainous
country they infest
The militia and Pinkertons are on
the trail of the gang. Already sew
