This was Miss Adelaide NJ. Brance's
answer today to one of the most ne
markable stories of Illicit love, romance,
self-denial. and tragedy ever. unfolded
on the pages Of life.
In the little cemetery of Monticello
early, today was an open grave. IL
awaited the body of Melvin II. Couch,
former district attorney OF Sullivan
county, a lawyer OF repute, respected
by his townspeople. and man whose
private life was believed to be above
reproach. -.s
But as the funeral was in progress,
as tic relatives rnd frients gathered to
ray their last respects to pne dead, the
spectrt OF this mans life. revealed only
by his death. hoycred near Every pre-
caution was taken to prevent the wom-
an. who had voluntarily made herself
a prisoner In dingy rear room of
CoiIch's offices fGr three years, sudden
" appearing in the midst Of the family.
Miss Brsnce was in the custody OF the
shel i'll today.
She Is held on technical charge Of
having taken IS from the pocket of the
man for the love of whom she stepped
from her place in the world into the
narrow confines If her prison that she
might always oe near him.
The funeral services today were .pri-
vat They were conducted by the Rev. A.
j. Waugh, OF the First Presbyterian
Church. in the Couch home. There Mrs.
Couch and her twenty-two-year-old
daughter have remained in seclusion
since Sunday, when the death Of the
father and husband revealed that.
which living, he had concealed for ff-
teen years.
Miss Brance today expressed no re-
morse. Her portion now Is but sorrow.

funeral. Miss Brance was all but hys-
terical
I met him. she said II feel deeply
for Mrs Couch. To her today fall the
rights Of the lawful widow. She may
attend the funeral. But to me. though
I was his wife before God. nothing re-
mains but the scorn Of tho friends OF
the man I loved and honored."
Miss Bfance has retained much OF
the beauty she possessed when she first
met Couch fifteen years ego, while
working as a book agent. She Is Of
medium height and of handsome figure.
Her hair IL slightly streaked with grey.

We hold emphatically tol the
opinion, and shall so hold until
the contrary shall be shown, that
no prisoner is liable for his doc
tors bill if sick while in durance.
We hold further, that when a
prisoner is sentenced to cOnfine-
ment for a certain number of days,
he is not chargeable with board as
additional costs. We also hold
that if a fine is imposed and he is
put to labor in lieu of payment,
he is not chargeable with board
during that period.
We also claim that the holding
of prisoner beyond the term Of
sentence, for medical service Or
board, is peonage upon the Mexi-
can order, and in defiance of Scate
and Federal law. If we are wrong
we would be glad to have the
weakness of our averments shown.

Scientific Management.

I The Santa Fe railroad was. made
Ia model system in many operating
respects by application OF the prin-
lciples of highly organized, scientit-
lie management.
Now it is carrying some science
Into traffic management in a way
that will interest the public.
1t has arranged a service of re-
frigerator cars in certain agricul-
tural districts, to stop off at small
towns and gather up vegetables,
fruits, etc., in whatever small lots
may be offered. Instead of requir-
ing these perishables to be aggre-
gated together in carload lots-a
plan that causes waste of vast
amounts-the railroad will 60 out
after the small quantities.
The scheme is said to be proving
a big success so far as tried out.
Everybody who knows the difficult
ties of the average small, miscella
neous farmer, in getting his little
surplus of potatoes, apples, vege'
tables and the like to market at q
decent profit, will understand
what his plan, generally applied,
would mean to the cOst-Of-livine

Pete Gamers Miniature Farm.

One of the best attractions to be
seen at the State Fair this year
and one that will be of special in
terest to the farmers of Missis-
sippi, says the Jackson News, will
be the miniature farm which is be-
ing constructed in the agricultural
building by Prof. P. P. Garner,
instructor and travelling demon
strator for the A. & NJ. College at
Starkville.
This small farm is being laid off
and built up just as the ideal farm
should be, and as the farms of the
future must be for the farmers to
successfully meet the conditions
that are confronting the Mississip-
pi agriculturists of today.
Prof. Garner has built q subsoil
foundation of clay so that the rich
pulverized soil on the top will re-
tain the moisture. 1t has been
laid off in plots and well drained,
so that the farmer can see just how
to keep his land from washing
away. These plots also show the
farmer how best to prepare and
lay off his and to get the best re-
suits from crop rotation.
Prof. Garner stated today that
the successful farmer of the future
would be the scientific farmer and
that he hoped the fair visitors
would take a great interest in the
practical demonstrations that will
be given by him with his farm.
