threat since returning from Los Angeles. that
he is going to work at West Oakland. He is
around shouting himself hoarse in the inter

no effect on any one We have missed Scab-

time and do not know what has become Of
him. Broken Back Reed Is another who is
missing from the bas,ile tribe. When last
seen he was hobbling around on q cane.
The men in the transportation department

same proposition We faced in i9ii-accept
what the company gives them or strike. For
twenty two months they have stood and look
ed at us on strike How much better it would
have been II they had been with US in one
big union. All OF us together could have
made the gigantic corporations look like thirty
cents.

Profits in Poultry Productions

That some Garrard citizens make the
poultry business profitable merely as a
Diversion and side issue is shown by
the experience of |. G. Rucker, miller
of the Paint Lick section. The first of
last year Mr.. Rucker had $50 hens in
his barnyard and from that flock in II
months he sold s15352 worth of eggs,
after reserving suffiency for home
consumption and supplying his family
with fried chicken in abundance. His
feed expenditures amounted TO $40,
leaving him a net profit of sl05.52, be-
sides an increase of 30 pullets to his
flock. He affirms that one-half gill pei
day to the hen of whole corn, oats and
screenings. kept the biddies in fine con-
dition the year round and brought about

She Is No Suffra9ette.

Miss Daisy Carleton, one Of the clever
Carleton Sisters. who will appear at the
Grand Opera House all Of next week,
commencing Monday night, has a very
poor opinion of the votes for women
movement. which at the present time is
agitating the gentler sex throughout
the country.
THE suffragettes are largely compos-
ed OF women who have nothing wLatso-
ever on their minds but their hats, said
Miss Carleton in an interview in Lexing-
ton last week. They are a class who
adopt lap dogs in the place of children.

do work for living, and especially in
the theatrical world, have enough TO do
in trying to make both ends meet with

There are number of States in the
West where women vote. and can't see
that they have cleared the political at
mosphere in the least; in fact there IS
not State that could be more corrupt

they butt into the political game? And
il is certainly poor specimen Of Of the
feminine gender who can't make a man

OLD ENGLISH CHURCH
QUAINT DURHAM STRUCTURE
DATES BACK TO SAXON TIMES.

cruesome Happening.

London, England.-One OF the old
and interesting churches of England,
dating back to Saxon times, is Kirk
Merrington. a strong structure, which
crowns a hill in the village of Mer-
rington in Durham county. The few
old, straight-backed oak pews, which
1t contains, as well as the gargoyles
and elves, carved upon the ends of the
roof beams, just under the caves,
which look down upon the beholder,
some with protruding tongues, others
with hideous grimace, the quaint
windows and the general air of an
tiquity, all tend to throw around the
structure that curtain of mystery
which infallibly encircles these land
marks of bygone England.
Merrington Kirk Is also famous In
another respect, for fits caves shelter
the tomb Of the victims of the last
man gibbeted and hanged in chains in
the County Of Durham. 1t is inscribed
as follows:
