The Thin lie.

The thimble is a very small piece
of workmanship, but il is a most
useful little article. The good old
Dutchman who invented it has been
dead and gone many centuries, but
the usefulness of this small article
has never diminished. There is
GOD for a whole sermon in that
statement. The thimble was first
known, so far as we have any record
in 1905 and was brought to Eng
land by John Laftnig. 1t was orig
inally called thumb bell, because
it was worn on the thumb and
shaped like a bell Later it was
called thumble and still later,
thimble. The first ones were made
of iron and brass. The iron ones
were clumsy and the brass ones
discolored the finger. Thimbles
are ordinarially made from thin
plates of metal placed in die and
punched into shape These thin
sheets of metal are cut into dies
about two inches in diameter. These
are heated red hot and struck with
a punch into a number of holes, to
give the proper shape. The Thin
BILE is then trimmed. polished and
indented around its outer with a
number of little holes by means of
a small wheel. 1t is then changed
into steel by the cementatien pro.
cess, secured. tempered and brought
to the blue color. When a more
expensive article is desired, gold
and silver ale introduced. -Rur-

Modern Woodmen Rates Up.

HChicagO, ILL.,, Jan. 27.-The propo-

for higher rates against 307 oppos-

A roll-call by States was demand
Ell by the delegates on the PROPOSE

the insurance departments of many
States.
The plan increases the rate of in,
surance in the order from so t
100 per cent and provided for
twelve assessments each year while
members of the order have hereto
fore contributed from nine to elev
en- assessments yearly.

A Great Discovery.

AS we have been in the poultry
business foc many years, and at all
times being interested in the better
ment of poultry, have studied the
diseases of poultry, and have also
tried every kind of an insect de.
stroyer, that we or any one else
could think of. After trying all Of
them. we think that we have found
the most powerful and quickest
means of destroying any kind of an
insect, without injury TO the poul-
try. When you destroy the insects,
you cure most o. the diseases Of
ponltry. The name of this insect
destroyer is Electric Compound"
and we think so much of it that we
have obtained the right to manu-
facture and sell it. Electric Com
pound is strong enough 50 that we
can take the contents of a six
pound cartoon and mix with 20
pounds of ashes or dirt place in a
box in the hen house and the chick
ems will wollow in it and thereby
cleanse themselves of all insects.
We absolutely guarantee it to do this
The six pound cartoons sell for
ST 90 We have some smaller 25c
cans which are to be used in sprink-
ling. This is to be used on setting
hens around the nests, as the set
ting hens will not wollow in the
mixture like the others will. EIec-
trio Compound is also a flea de-
stroyer, and it is claimed by some
that if it it is placed around a hog
pen that the hogs will not be both
cred with any insects. We are not
sure that it will do the latter and
therefore do not guarantee it, un-
less it is sprinkled on the hogs.

The Sounds of Elephants.

Elephants are said to make use
of great variety of sound in COM
municating with each other, and in
expressing their wants and feelings.
Some are uttered by the trunk
and some by the throat. The con-
lectures in which either means of
expression is employed cannot be
strictly classified as fear. pleasure,
want and other emotions are same
times indicated by the trunk, some
times by the throat An elephant
rushing upon an assailant trumpets
shrilly with fury.
Fear is similarly expressed in a
shrill, brassy trumpet, or by roar
from the lungs. Pleasure by a
continued low squeakine through
the trunk or an almost inaudible
purring sound from the throat.
Want--as a calf calling its mother
lis chiefly expressed by the
throat. A peculiar sound is made
use of by elephants to express dis
like or apprehension, and at the
same time intimidate, as when the
cause of some alarm has not been
clearly ascertained and the ami
mails wish to deter an intruder.
1t is produced by rapping the
end of the trunk smartly on the
ground, a current the air hitherto
retained being sharply emitted
through the trunk, as from a valve
at the moment of impact. The
sound made resembles that of a
large sheet of tin rapidly doubled.
1t has been enormously ascribed by
some writer's to tho animals beating
their sides with their trunks.-Ex

MOUNTA|NA|R CASE
COMES BACK

Santa Fe, N. M, Sept. 16.-
On a technicality, the supreme
court of New Mexico, today re-
versed case 1895, the state of
New Mexico, appellee, versus
Charles A. Noble, ct al, appel
lants, and remanded the case to
the lower court for a new trial.
Attorney General F. W. Clancy
confessed error on the part of
the state. The case was appeal
ed to the supreme court by
Attorneys Isaac Barth and
Mann & Venable of Albuquer-
que.
The ordering of a new trial in
the ''whitecapper' case will be
of considerable interest in vari-
GUS sections of New Mexico.
Some two and half years ago
there lived in the vicinity of
Mountainair a man named Ku-
bena and a widow .amed Mrs.
Knapp. For reasons best known
to themselves, the residents of
the Mountainair district posted
notices on Kubena's door and on
Mrs. Knapp's door, requesting
them to leave the community.
Kubena left the country, but
Mrs. Knapp refused to leave.
Then one night a bunch of men,
costumed as nightriders, or
whitecappers, riddled Mrs.
Knapp's shack with bullets. By
actual count forty bullets from
a 30 80 rifle passed clear through
the house Mrs Knapp, at the
sound of the first shot, had
dropped down below a trunk and
escaped with her life, although
The nightriders believed she had
been killed.
Four men, Charles Noble,
Frank Griffin, Joshua Perkin and
Jim Dunn, were arrested, indict-
I'd by the Torrance county grand
Jury, and convicted at the last
:erm of court, being represented
oy Attorney F. F. Jennings of
Willard. The men were SEN
:enced by Judge E. L. Medler to
'erve from five to seven years in
he penitentiary. The cases were
to the supreme court
md the decision today gives the
mean new trial.
1t is said that Judge Medler
'rred in giving instructions to
he jury and that this is one of
he principal reasons why the
tate. represented by the attor-
ley general confessed error. 1t
3 said that the reversal of the
'whitecapper,' case has a pre-
edent in the case of the terri
