TELLING AGE OF THE HORSE
Judging by Change In Teeth 10 Most
Accurate Observation-Disclosures Be-
tween Old and Young.

There are four ways to tell the age
OF horse-by his teeth, by his ribs,
by the flesh on his tail, and by the
skin on his cheeks. says the American
Breeder. In young horse the cheek
skin is soft and elastic. and flies back
quickly when raised: in an old one, 1t
ID lifeless and goes back but slowly.
Old horses apparently have a wider
and more distinct space between their
ribs than young horses. And with age
the flesh on the tail shrinks, making
the joints more distinct than they are
on young horse
Judging by the change IN the teeth
Is more accurate method. The COM
Ing Of the temporary teeth frst, and
then the permanent ones: the develop
mont to maturity: the change In
shape on account Of wear: the coming
OF the cups In the teeth and their
wearing away afterward, and the
change in the angle Of meeting Of the
teeth. from straight together at I'VE
years to q sharp angle at 20: all these
are signs by which the experienced
horseman can road accurately the age
Of horse.
It must be remembered that the
permanent teeth. above and below,
come In at the same time, but that
the cups above do not wear away un.
til all the cups below are gone. II
must also be remembered that
changes begin at the center and con-
tinue at the rate Of one pair q year:
that horse at maturity, which Is at
five years. has everything. l. O., all his
permanent teeth and all the cups.

TAKES TERM TO SAVE FATHER
Induces Court to Exchange Sentences
So Parent Can BE Set Free
Sooner.

Baltimore, Md.-Asking that q sen
tence Of three years in Jail imposed
upon his father be imposed upon him
and this his own sentence OF two
years in jail be reversed to his father.
Hugh 9. Lyons broke down in the
criminal court this morning and wept
bitterly. Judge Elliott complied with
the prisoners unusual request and
Lyons seemed much relieved when
given the chance to exchange sem
tences with his father. giving tho
elder man the benefit OF one year.
Though neither Of them ever has d.
rectly admitted that they were father
and son. Hugh D. Lyons. alias Philip
Passavant. and Hugh C. Lyons, who
bear q very marked resemblance to
each other, have given the authorities
much dinhculty in proving their rela-
tionship. They were arrested some
time ago by Detectives Schanberger
and Kahler on charge OF obtaining
money through bogus checks passed
upon tobacconists and confectioners,
Several days ago they were convicted,
Touched BY the loyalty Of his part
ner In crime. "Passavant" asked that
tho original sentence be adhered to.
but Judge Elliott carried out the re-
versal.

ONE ROOM HIS PRISON
pENiTENT YOUTH Summed
WORLD TO ExPiATE A FAULT.
por - Years Residents Of Clyde, N.
w. Watched Closed Window, But
u Never Opened Until its
Occupant Was Dead.

Clyde. N. Y.-Thirty-four years o,
penance for grief he caused his fathes
ended the other day. by the death q
;. Arthur Hamilton. For more than
. quarter Of q century the blinds in
MS room were drawn on rusty
hinges and sunlight never flooded the
apartment. From small cracks DO
tween the shutters he saw genera
lions srow and pass away, but the
mystery Of his sudden disappearance
was not solved until 1t was learned
that Hamilton's body filled a newly
made grave. His old friends believed
ne had gone west on Z mining ven.
ture and many had forgotten him.
Clyde saw the last OF Arthur Ham.
Nton "a years ago. He disappeared
IN night. His absence was the more
noticeable because. up to the time he
disappeared. Clyde had seen SO much
OF him. He was the most active OF
tho society and business men Of the
town, handsome In appearance and In
teliectual. His father, q devout men,
Der OF the church and a banker. was
disappointed in his son because ne
failed to keep pledges to reform and
cease his skylarking.
One night he went to Lyons. be-
came involved with the authorities
and the father was called to 60 his
bail. The blow preyed on the fathers
mind. He became Ill and died. Young
Hamilton blamed himself for his
fathers death and determined to do
penance by spending the remainder OF
mis- days In solitary confinement.
Hamilton lived solely with his
books. his memories and his pipe. 1t
now becomes known that he sat daily
at his windows and watched the peo-
pie OF Clyde as they came and went
past his self-made prison. He saw
his old friends grow to maturity,
marry and rear children. The tolling
Of church bells informed him OF
deaths. and he would miss another
familiar face on the street.
His face changed. His hair whit
ened. He shambled In his gait like an
old man. Then he began to leave his
room BY night and walk about the
Hamilton mansion, but none ever
connected him with the Arthur Ham
ifton Of years before Finally he
needed the attention Of physician.
One was sworn to secrecy and the
old man taken to hospital. but he
died.

SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORT,

Although the soaking rains that have
fallen throughout the Inland Empire
during the week have not met with
much favor from Pow Mowers, they
have been Of considerable value to
the wheat crop, and barring hot winds
or any other unusual disturbance
there can be no question that the
yield OF this season will be of record
proportion. Maturity Of crops. how
ever, will come somewhat late. as the
season has been very backward. and
prospects are that new crop deliveries
will not be made before the first OF
September. The only drawback from
the farmers point of view Is the ap-
parent shortage Of labor. Reports
have already been received from
many sections to the effect that suf-
ficient labor can be procured only
with difficulty, and with the increased
requirements Of the harvest this may
prove a serious handicap to opera
tions.
The Industrial situation through
the Pacific Northwest shows very lit
tie change. Operations seem to be
moving forward steadily with very
little attention given to the tariff adj
justment, and q general feeling Of CON
fidence shown In the future.
In the various distributive lines
the movement continues steady and
normal with no marked developments
IN any department. Orders, while not
large, are being placed regularly and
dealers are optimistic. The principal
feature Of the markets 10 the steady
decline In spring produce.
Following are the declines for the
week: Gooseberries. cherries, straw
berries. new potatoes, onions, cab
page, Oregon peas, beans, lettuce, to-
matoes and wheat. Advances were In
lemons and oranges.

FACTS ABOUT CHICKEN Pox

ceiIent Information and Advice
Concerning Disease.

A tennessee reader wants to know

moving the crusts as they soften and
yield to gentle rubbing. Strict quar-

until every fowl Is known to be free

with chicken pox should be kept dry
IN some isolated quarter away from
the general flock. Spray the infected
quarters daily with some reliable dis
infectant. Positively this disease can
not be neglected If you wish to save
your flock, as 1t will rapidly spread to
every fowl If not eliminated. Fowls
affected should be fed sparingly on
corn but instead should be fed on
soft food and vegetables. Provide
them with clean, fresh water, char
coal and grit. A few doses Of raw

all impurities. assisting in a more
