1t struck me as peculiar coinci'
dence that two persons so far apart IN
the social scale as Katharine Parrish
and Andrew Elser should have chosen
the same hour Of the same day to seek
death. Was there something in as

creed that both should die? Had

So deep was the impression made on
me by the coincidence that I took the
paper with me and read the account Of
Elser's suicide to Louise. Even as l
read it aloud, this inexplicable thought
came to me with startling force:
Suppose that these two suicides at
the same hour were more than mere
coincidence. Was Impossible that the
same shadow had fallen on both these
lives? Had the same mystery driven
them to death-pact?
1t seemed absurd. 1t was unlikely
that Katharine Parrish had ever heard
Of Andrew Elser. If the family had
known him Louise would have men
toned it. And yet-why had these
two persons sought to die on the same
hour OF the same day? The question
would not let me sleep that night.

How a Vote Was Lost.

"A Chautauqua Boy Of '61," tells how
former Gov. John A. Dix Of New York
lost vote when he ran for re.elec-
ton against Samuel. J. Tilden.
General Dix used to say that at his
home on Long Island he had set aside
plot OF ground, built substantial
house, and given it, rent free, to a
fisherman, the only condition being
that the fisherman should supply the
governors family with fish at the
prices that ruled in the nearby vii
lage. The fisherman also had a large
family Of children, who were assisted
by Governor Dix's family in many
ways. As election day approached
Governor Dix met the man and said
to him: e7.

There are number of sDon'ts''
that should be observed by shippers

using care and neatness in packing.
Frequently the buyer is present when
the box is opened, and sale spoiled
because of the packing. Don't pack
poultry after dressing until all the
animal heat is out. Don't let some
little market fuster cause you to
change houses.
Get good, solid house and stick
to 1t. That keeps the commission man
interested in retaining your trade.

HIGH AIM OF THIEVES
ROYAL CROWNS HAVE BEEN OBJ
JEcTs OF DEPREDATIoNs.
Latest to Be Recorded Is an Attempt
to Purloin the Now Disused Dia-
dem That Once Belonged T"
I ,,~l to BrazlIs Ruler.

Robberies of royal crowns are nat
urally extremely rare, and the num-
Der of thefts of this sort that have
taken place since Col. Blood was cap
tured in the act of carrying off the
crown Of England from the Tower OF
London, in the reign Of Charles H.,
may be counted on the fingers of one
hand.
Recently the imperial crown of Bra
I'll was stolen from the Chateau d'Eu,
in Normandy, only few miles from
Dieppe. Already on June IL, three OF
the largest diamonds Of the crown
were found to have been pried out and
to have disappeared, along with three
costly rings belonging to the Count
ess d'Eu. the services Of the po-
lice and of private detective agencies
had been called into action by the
royal occupants of the chateau, but
without avail. ..-..t-
On August II large dinner party
was in progress at the Chateau d'Eu.
when suddenly the dogs outside began
to bark violently. Prince Louis OF
Orleans Braganza, taking 1t for grant
ed that some thief was again about
the guests at the table had just been
discussing the robbery Of June r.
jumped from his chair, and. running
through the gunroom, seized q rife.
which he did not even take time to
load, and rushed into the grounds. In
few minutes he found, held at bay
ny the dogs In thicket. a man at
whom he pointed his gun. The fell
low offered no resistance, although on
being seized and searched by the peo-
pie who rushed out after the prince
it was found that the intruder was
armed with two revolvers and a long
knife, while in his waistcoat pocket
were the three diamonds missing from
the crown and one Of the rings.
Further search revealed In the
shrubbery where he had been crouch
ing bundle containing the imperial
crown itself and the jeweled coronet
which the Brazilian crown prince
had worn on the state occasions. The
burglar was afterward ascertained to
be a former servant Of the chateau
named Louis Nieuten, who had decid-
ed to turn his knowledge of the inte-
rior and fittings of the place to good
account. EgIs
Attention has thus been drawn to
the owner of the endangered imperial
gems, namely, the Countess d'Eu, ex-
Crown Princess of Brazil, and only
child Of the late Dom Pedro. Brazil's
last emperor, who was dethroned in
1889. X
Sixty-six years old, very tall and i'm
posing, with large, bright eyes and
most unaffected in manner, the ex-
crown princess has inherited much of
her fathers looks and character.
Like him, she lives life Of mingled
stateliness and simplicity. Born at
Rio de Janeiro and married there In
1864 to Prince CASTOR, son of the
late Due de Nemours and grandson Of
King Louis Philippe Of France, she re-,
peatedly acted as regent Of Brazil
during her fathers absence in Europe
and the United States, and it was as
such that it fell to her lot to sign
the decree abolishing for all time ne
gro slavery In his dominions.

1t is not too soon to put houses and
coops in shape for winter.
The dull, listless bird cannot be re-
moved from the flock too soon.
A little iron tonic in the drinking
water is good during moulting.
In the fall and spring eggs
should be marketed at least once
week.
"Clean the nest and not the egg"
is the advice of a successful eastern
egg farmer.
After dumping and burning the most
ing material whitewash the inside Of
the nest box.
The early moulters are the early lay
ers. It is good plan to mark them
for breeders.
Any good stock dip also makes q
good disinfectant to kill disease germs
in poultry quarters.
More disease outbreaks in the flock
can be traced to unclean conditions
than poultrymep generally think.
When the clean, fresh eggs are gath
cred, they should be put in clean,
dry, cool place until marketed.
Getting rid of all birds as soon as
they are two years old will lessen
the chances Of disease in the flock.
To hasten feathering after the
mott, give a tablespoonful Of sulphur
in a mash to every ten hens twice q
week. -
Corn meal mixed in with small
quantity Of shorts and moistened with
skim milk makes a good wet mash
to fatten the market birds.
Shippers of live poultry should new
er use coops which are too small to
carry the poultry properly. Poultry
arriving in a cramped and wretched
condition will not command satisfac-
tory prices, and furthermore the COM
mission man is apt to get himself into
serious trouble with the society for
the Prevention OF Cruelty to Animals
unless the stock is removed immedi-
ately into other coops, and these are
not available at all times.

Gold Reports on Alaska.

The United States geological survey
has just published as Bulletin 520-H
a report on the mining and water sup
ply Of the Fortymile, Seventymile, Cir
Gle and Fairbanks districts, Alaska,
by E. A.; Porter and c. E. Ellsworth.
The estimated value Of the combined
gold production of the Fortymile and
Seventymile districts for 1911 was
$4,000, an increase of $4,000 over
the output for 1910 due to the success
of two dredges on the headwaters of
Fortymile river. The value Of the
gold production of the Fairbanks dis.
trict in 1911 is estimated to be approx
imately $4.500.000, a decrease of ST..
600 900 from the output for 1910. due
mainly to the fact that most of the
bonanzas Of the camp have been work
ed out and the major part of the min.
ing was confined to deposits of rela-
lively low grade. The Circle precinct
in 1911 produced gold with an esti-
mated value OF $350,000, which exceeds
that of any other year since 1898. The
increase was due entirely to the i'm
proved methods employed.

A Good Eaa Food.

Cowpeas are not only relisAed by
hens, but it is excellent egg food for
them. One successful poultryman
gives his experience: The peas, aft
er maturing, were harvested and
stored in dry lofts, and thrown to the
fowls in scratching pens, where they
were scratched over and searched for
during the day. After a few days the
egg supply was visibly increased and
within a few weeks almost doubled
that from an equal number of hens
kept in separate quarters and fed on
other grains. The hens seemed to
like the small branches and leaves,
and would eat every particle except
the hard, stin stems. The general
health Of the flock was excellent, and
not single hen showed the least
symptom of ailment during the winter
season. Considering the ease with
which cowpeas may be raised, 1t
seems that everyone should give them
test as food for the poultry.
