The following dispatch from Lin
coin, Neb., announcing the discovery
OF new method for obtaining the
best results from cream will prove in
teresting, especially as it was tried out
IN Canyon county over a year ago at
the Experiment Farm.
The Kansas method of grading
cream, said to be the frst-simple and
practicable method of testing cream
tor quality. is to be tried in Nebraska
by State Food Commissioner N. P.
Hansen. Mr.. Hansen and State
Chemist Redfarn have returned from
Manhattan, Kan. where they investi-
gated the experiments of Dairy Com
missioner Bursch with an acid test
that discloses the degree of sourness
OF the cream. Mr.. Bursch's depart
ment is connected with the Kansas
state experiment station and he is az
pointed by the university regents.
His plan has resulted in producers
getting cents more a pound for
good cream than for a poor quality.
This in crease in price does not cost
the producer anything except little
care in handling and keeping of his
product. Experiments show that the
temperature at which cream is tept
is one of the most important items
and that the temperature produced
by we'll waer is the best. The waite,
can be made to flow through a place
where cream is kept and is not vast
ed, because it can be run into tanks
for live stock to drink.
When the experiment was COM
menced in Kansas the producers of
cream were ignorant of the fact that
their cream was being put to an acid
test. This secret test showed that
only 81 per cent of the cream graded
No. l. After the farmers had been
informed and instructed as to care
of cream their deliveries showed 1871
per cent of grade No. l.
The government has taken up the
Kansas method and will send agents
to Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma
| to assist in installing the plan.
Under the Kansas plan cream that
shows $40 of l per cent or less acid
is graded No. l, and brings cent
more per pound than the market
price. Cream showing more than $40
per cent acid is graded No. 2 and
brings l cent less than the market
price. In the Kansas experiment out
of 1884 deliveries of cream 1871 per
cent of the cream graded No. l. Re-
ports from the II stations show that
the grading system does not result in
loss of business to creameries and
that very few patrons object to it.
Not New in Caldwell.
That the method is excellent is be-
yond doubt; but the Nebraska Ex-
perimenters are by no means in the
Columbus class. This method was H.
Illustrated, over year ago, by tank
made by Prof. H. T. French and used
at the Experiment Farm; and. about
the same time, was described in an
article. by the same authority. appear
ing in the Gem State Rural.
Commenting on the article, Prof.
French stated that the farmers in
every dairy district will be obliged to
come to it sooner or later. During
the hot weather, the dairyman loses
on his cream anywhere up to one
third, as compared with the returns
proper care would insure. The meth
cd advocated by our Nebraska neigh
bors is worthy of the fare of trum-
pets with which it is announced; but

WASHINGTON, May 11.-With Con-
gresham Nelson holding other wit
nesses in allegiance, Mrs Caroline Bart

testimony before the Moss committee

tive in declaring that if the committee

merous instances of lax administration

gradual lowering of the standard of in

Mr. Nelson promises to put on the

To MRS. GRACE
Fellow Prisoner Helps Tighten
Sadness of Her Wedding
Day Anniversary.

Mrs Daisy Opie Grace spent the
evening of her wedding anniversary lis

the same charge as herself-assault

dier's bond has been fixed at 5000; Mrs.
Grace's at $4,000, They will both prob

When a Georgian reporter entered
the jail last night in company with one
of Mrs. Grace's attorneys, the accused
woman was sitting in the rotunda of
the fifth floor, beside a white haired
Confederate veteran who carried an
empty right sleeve as a reminder of the
battle of Sharpsburg.
For hours the soldier had enter
tanned Mrs Grace with songs of the
South and stories of the war. He was

KAUL CONF E.SSES
DIAMOND Thief 7
Carl Roddy'S Wife Says She
viii Stand by Him and Be-
Iieves He Is innocent.

The Atlanta Pinkerton detective
agency today received word from New
York that George Kaul, one Of the al
legged diamond robbers now under ar
rest there, has made a complete confess
sion.
Kaul duplicates George Wrenn and
Carl Roddy. the two medical students
in jail here, asserting that each of these
men received share Of the loot Kaul
says that after the two jewel trunks
were stolen from the Atlanta Baggage
and Cab Company's wagon he and his
associates went to q secluded spot in
the woods near Decatur, where the loot
was divided into three parts He says
Wrenn picked out the largest and
choicest sparklers.
Kauls detailed confession will not be
obtained until he IS brought back 10
Atlanta by Detective Starnes, who is
now in New York 1t is not known
when the detective and his prisoner will
arrive in Atlanta. The start being de-
layed by the technicalities of the New
York laws
Wife Sticks to Roddy.
I'm Carl Roddys wife I'm going
to stand by him in this trouble as a wife
should I have complete confidence in
him and I know that | can help to clear
him OF the charge Whatever happens
I'm not going to desert him, and think
there will be an entirely new light
thrown on this case when I tell how he
came to have those Jewels"
Mrs. Fife Roddy wife of the alleged
diamond thief, had only that statement
to make when a Georgian reporter
found her today at the home of her
mother in-law. Mrs James Roddy, at
56 WILLIAMS street. where she mas been
staying since she arrived in Atlanta
yesterday in company with ner husband
and the detectives who brought him
from New Orleans.
Roddy's mother had never seen her
sons wife before for even after the
marriage the young wife continued to
room at 329 Whitehall street while he
continued to live with his mother
Three days before the couple left Al
anta on the New Orleans journey she
had hastily changed her residence to
30 Whitehall street. and she kept her
secret so well that only one or two in
the same house knew of her marriage
when the arrest of Roddy came.
So the first meeting of Roddy's moth
er and her daughter law was partic-
ularly painful. for Roddy himself had
been taken to jail.
Wife Says She Will Testify.
But in less than ten minutes after she
entered the William street home Mrs.
Roddy had told the older woman that
she intended to stand by her husband
and to the end and she told Mrs. Roddy
that the testimony she would give in
his behalf at the trial would aid him
greatly to win his freedom. What this
testimony will be she steadfastly re-
fused to tell.
1T isn't time yet to give away our
side" she said to the reporter "and
don't even care to discuss the case any
further, except to say that the officers
We're courteous and considerate"
Chief Lanford said however, that
Roddy has not only been willing to talk,
but has made 16,000-word statement
of his connection with the 100000 gem
robbery that sounds decidedly fishy.

from Shubert's Winter Garden, with
the assistance OF Arthur Conrad, gave
a decidedly clever act in song, dialogue
and monolOgue, all in rhyme, while
her costumes are beautiful Tempest
and Selig's sterling comedy act, "The

perfection, being cheered to the echo
time and again. Comedy i'm the
