came in for his share of prizes at the poul-
try exhibit held here last week, also ex-
hibited during the same week at the Ma
tional Partridge Wyandotte Club Show,
held at Madison, Wisconsin 1t was to
Madison that he sent his famous Cock

When we consider the fact that this club
show was composed Of Partridge Wyan-
dotte only, and there being on exhibi-
tion, specim ems from the best breeders Of
this one variety from practically every
state ia the United States and Canada, it
goes without saying that Strother's birds
are among the best to be found anywhere.
His winnings at Madison, both regular
and special amount to about $25. cash
We have several local lanciers who do
not fear the large shows, and many have
sent to such shows as Hagersttown, Md,
Portland, Ind, Wheeling, and Pitts
burg, always bringing back large share
Of prizes.

BILL GAME

Washington, Jan. 16.--James l..
Davenport, United States commission
er of pensions, It was brought out In
debate In the house, has been draw
ing a pension of SIG month
from the government since July, 1886,
Attention was directed to the fact by
Representative Roddenberry OF Geor-
gia, who bitterly opposed the pending
omnibus pension bill. Mr. Rod0en-
berry offered an amendment to the
measure reducing Commissioner Da-
venport's pension to 81 a month. The
amendment was defsated by an over
whelming vote. The Georgia member
made humorous speech ON the Da-
veaport pension, declaring that the
commissioner had been granted 1t on
the ground that he was suffering from
wasting disease.
''If he had that disease In 1855 he
would have been a human skeleton by
this time" shouted My. Roddenberry.
"But look ct him. II you have seen
him you know that he 10 the picture
of health"
Mr.. Roddenberry charged that Mr..
Davenport enlisted IN q Wisconsin
regiment near the close of the war,
when the government was paying
high bounties." The Georgian insist
ed that the altruistic idea OF tho pen
sion system was entirely overlooked
when man was paid gratufty Of SIC
a month who at the time received a
salary Of $4,000 year as a govern
ment official
Representative Roddenberry. assist
ed by Representative Trfbble, also Of
Georgia. and Representative Moon Of
Tennessee, conducted a flibuster
against the pension bill throughout the
day, and the house finally was forced
to adjourn with the pension bill still
lying on the calendar.

STILL UNSETTLED
Conference In London Unable TO
Adjust Affairs of the
Troubled Balkans.
ARMISTlCE DECLARED OFF
Things Now Have Reached a Stage
Where Thoughtful Observers Begin
to See Trouble For the Powers If
Adjustment Isn't Made Soon.

London, Jan. 15.-Although it caused
the war clouds to lower ominously, the
bombshell thrown out by the allies by
announcing that they were going back
to their respective countries and that
the war would be resumed, is
not equivalent to rupture of the ne
gotiations. Not only is the threat of
resumption of the war conditional on
Turkeys Noncompliance with the adj
vice of the powers, but according to
some well4nformed views, the note of
the delegates of the allies to Sir Ed
ward Grey, the British foreign secre-
tary, is merely a recommendation to
their respective governments, and it
will have to be considered by three
cabinets before it can be effective.
This rather suggests the tail wagging
the dog.
Another version is that the dele
gates are acting in obedience to orders
from their governments and have re-
solved on plan Of action which they
will keep secret until the last moment.
as they are pledged to await the rep
reservations of the ambassadors at
Constantinople to the porte.
The decision definitely to break UP
the peace conference in London sim
ultaneously with the presentation to
the Turkish government of the note
Of the European powers will be COM
munioated to the porte in a formal
note. At the same time 1t was decid-
ed to instruct the commanders Of the
armed forces of the allies in the field
to terminate the armistice which has
been in operation since Dec. 3.
The threatening note of the allies to
the Turks is to be worded in such a
way that it will become effective only
II the Ottoman government refuses
compliance with the advice given by
the ambassadors Of the European pow
ers. The members of the Balkan
league are OF the opinion that the note
drafted by the diplomats is SO weak
that 1t requires some sharp backing
and this, they think, will be supplied
by their threat to continue hostilities.

Welded
Behind Bars Of Grafton City Jail Was
Man Charged With Deseriion.

GRAFTON, Jan. 9,--The old city jail
has been the scene Of many odd happen
ngs in it's period Of history in this city,
but Tuesday it was the scene OF an Incl
dent that never before has been witness
ed here. This was wedding which was
performed by Rev. J. A. sMcClelland, OF
the First Presbyterian Church, with the
groom behind the bars OF the county Jail.
Yesterday afternoon it happened, when
James Abraham Glenn and BERTHE Daw-
son were married behind the Jail bars,
while the groom was still under charge
OF deserving from the United States navy
and was daily expected to be summon
ed to appear for trial
The groom has been confined here for
some time under the charge and had
learned that the time was drawing near
when he might expect to be removed
from this city to Norfolk, Va, to come
up before the naval tribunal He had
teen sweetheart Of Miss Dawson for
many years and had become engaged to
her not long before he was apprehened
under the grave charge Of desertion.
When he found that he was likely to be
removed to distant point, and that the
result Of the trial before the naval author
tiles there would be doubtful, he got in.
TO communication with his finance and
they arranged to have the wedding in
his cell before the government took
Glenn to Norfolk.
The bride accordingly arranged the
matters, and contrary to custom, it was
the bride and not the groom that secured
the license and engaged the minister, in
this case Rev. McClelland, to perform
the ceremony. No one about town
knew Of the ceremony and only the
warden and the necessary witness viewed
the ceremony under the strange circum-
stances.
After the wedding was performed tho
bride was admitted to the cell occupied
by the groom and there a. wedding feast
was partaken Of
Arrangemen ts were made for sending
Glenn to the government quarters at Nor
folk and he left here last night on his
way to that station. He is to be sum-
moned before the court martial there at
once and will be given immediate trial.
