A soldier of the 25th infantry,

ing on the published accounts of the
affair, this morning instructed Col
onel Kennon, commanding the 25th,
to make an investigation. It devel-
oped that the regimental commander
had already taken the necessary
steps, and as the result, the suspect
was apprehended before noon today.
IF this matter had been reported
promptly to this Office, there would
have been little chance of the men
escaping, If they we're guilty" said
General Funston this morning. 1T
would have been extremely difficult to
trace such an act to a white soldier,
because there are so many different
organizations, but when q colored SOL

If the report is made promptly, it is
comparatively easy to trace the move

eral days have gone by it is much
more difficult | regret exceedingly
that this Office was not notified of the
alleged assault promptly, so that we
could be surer of getting the right
men to answer for it."

ing to Secretary Redfield. in his address
before the Lansing board of commerce
yesterday afternoon. THE decision Of the
Supreme Court making it unlawful for

There are men who are sincere foes
Of monopoly who incline to the belief that

Story Of a Blind Stenographer.

preparing to become teacher of lit

such a crushing calamity would hove
destroyed all thought of an indie
pendent career. but in Miss Keator's
case it did nothing of the sort. Az
ter recovering from the illness which
had taken sight for toll, she went

tuition for the Blind y, Batavia, New

had to learn to work as well as see

She had determined, handicapped as
she was, to he self-supporting and
Independent. Her success was eX-
traordnary and would have done
credit to an expert. When the time
came for her to look about for a posi-
ton she turned at once to New York
City. Her excellent work in the IN
stitutiOn at Batavia had already at

CATTLE BREEDING IN SOUTH
CAROLINA,

the Best Herds. Describes His Sue.
cess.

MARKED success in the breeding OF
cattle has been made by S. ID. Cross,
OF Chester, S. c., and his famous herd
vi Herefords is noted all over the
southeast. In speaking Of the sec
ton as cattle producing one. Mr..
Cross said
FOR many years the beef cattle
producers thought that the Middle
ana western States were the only ones
where beef cattle could be profitably
produced. About ten years ago some
Oh the Southern farmers imported
some o. the best beef cattle from the
West and are now producing az ehod
registered cattle rs can be had in any
part of the Union. This is being
done in the South at much Less cost
than in the West.
The natural pasture of the South
furnishes grazing for cattle from
the middle of March to the middle of
November. BY planting fields of win
ter grasses and clovers green pas-
lures for cattle can be had all the
year round. Bermuda grass, which
IS one Of the finest pasture and hay
grasses in the world, is native to the
South. There are many large fields of
1t on which cattle Craze almost nine
honths or the year. On a farm ad-
joining mine. a farmer had for q
late winter pasture and early spring
pasture three acres of crimson clover
and one Of vetch. On these four
acres Of pasture he grazed ten head of
cattle and six head Of stock for three
months in the winter and spring. The
cattle fattened in a short time and
the work animals were kept in excel
lent condition.
The Hereford type Of cattle is one
Of the best for the South. They are
great hustlers and will stay fat
through the summer even though the
pasture may become short during q
protracted dry spell. They are the
most docile animals known to man.
Ihey make quick growth and can
be marketed at an early age for beef.
This type is as large as any beef cat
tie in the Union. In fifteen months
time the majority of them will weigh
one thousand pounds. A young bull
In my heard, six months old, weighs
five hundred pounds One of the
cows weighs sixteen hundred, and a
bull formerly owned by me weighed
twenty-five hundred and eighty
pounds. Beef cattle are now bring
Ing nine cents q pound on foot. The
supply as shown by statistics is rapid
ly decreasing, while the demand Tor
that kind of beef cattle. especially the
best. is constantly increasing
Both alfalfa and timothy are
grown here and are used to feed the
cattle during the winter months
when there is sometimes a scarcity of
green food.
The thirty cattle in v.y md are
now in splendid growinC condition on
ten-acre pasture Of Bermuda grass.
Such pasture and even better pastures
may be found in all parts Of Chester
county.
