BUSY
WITH CONGRESS
VIII Not be Able to Pay Attention to
Matters of Patronage Until After
Disposition of Tariff Bill.

washington, Sept. .12.-Those people
in the state who have hoped that with
the passage of the tariff bill by the
senate, Senator Simmons would get
down actively to an adjustment of
numerous patronage matters, will be
disappointed and must be patient for
at least two weeks more. Although
the tariff bill is out of the senate, Sen
ator Simmons confinement to it's con-
s1deration is by no means ended be-
cause for the next two weeks he will
be in continuous conference from ear
~ morning until probably late at night
with the senate and house conferences.
Senators Simmons said that COM
11encing today he expects to be close
ly confined to an adjustment between
the senate and house conferees of the
600 odd amendments which the sem
ate made to the house bin. This, he
said, he expected would occupy all of
two weeks. Until then, he declared,
it will be impossible for him to de-
vote any attention to matters of state
patronage.
Among the first matters which will
DE brought to his attention, as soon
as he signifies his readiness to con-
slider them are the squables over the
apo ntment of postmasters at Mar
shall, Madison county, Where J. r.
Swami is being held up; Asheboro,
where E. L. Amman is being held up;
L-aurinburg, where G. H. Russell is
being held up, and Reidsville, where
Senator Simmons is delaying the ap-
Po:ntment of Oliver.
The three congressman, Webb,
Fage and Stedman, respectively, who
recommended the appointment of the
nominees, are patiently waiting until
the senior senator announces his read
mess to discuss the differences with
them.

Fear Of Kidnapping by Uncle Sam
Jerome Gets Horse Laugh.

Littleton, N. H., Sept. 16.-Counsel
for Harry Kendall Thaw tonight laid
the foundation for plans to carry his
case to the Supreme court of the
United States if this becomes neces-
sary.
When the governor of New Hamp-
shire passes On the matter of the ex-
tradition of Thaw to New York at the
hearing to be held at Concord next
tuesday, the findings if adverse to
ThaW, will be reviewed by the United
States District court and, should a de-
cision against him then be rendered,
successive appeals will be taken until
bet case reaches the highest court of
the land.
Announcement Made.
This was the announcement made
tonight by the Thaw lawyers after the
most notable court victory for the
fugitive since his escape from Mattea-
wan. 1t was made after the hearing
on a federal writ of habeas corpus OBJ
tanned in Thaw's behalf had been de-
f1nitely suspended until such time as
counsel saw fit to begin arguments af-
ter the extradition matter had been de-
cided by the governor.
Thaw's jubilant counsel, headed by
Moses Grossman and L. J. Vorhaus,
departed for New York, leaving their
client in the point custody of the Unit
ted States marshal and Sheriff Drew,
of Coos county, not to return until the
hearing before the governor is called.
The head of the New York state
forces, William Travers Jerome, and
Deputy Attorney-General Kennedy and
Sheriff Hornbeck of 'Dutchell county,
also left tonight. They will come.
back for the hearing Tuesday.
Thaw, according to the understand
ing reached, will be taken to Concord
in the morning. He was quartered in
Thayer's hotel tonight, feeling fine and
predicting that the gate" of Matteawan
would never close behind him again.

ACCUSED PRIEST
VERYBAD ACTOR
Hand Been Adjudged Insane in Ger.
Many Coming To America Prison
Officials Say He Is Insane.

New York, September 15.-Hans
Schmidt, the priest who confessed
that he killed Anna Aumuller with a
butcher knife as a sacrifice to be
contaminated in blood" tonight is at
the observation ward of the Tombs
prison under the watchful eye of DR..
Mcclure, the prison physician War
den FELTON,, of the Tombs, declared
that the man is insane-one of the
most dangerous men ever confined in
the prison, and lin this view he was
upheld by Deputy Commissioner OF
Corrections Wright.
From far-of Mainz, Germany, there
came today to Monsignor Joseph F.
Money, vicar-general of the arch
diocese of New York, a cablegram
from the secretary of the bishop,
which said that Schmidt had been
clared insane there and suspended by
the bishop. The message read:
Schmidt born at Aschaffenburg,
Priest of diocese of Mainz, Ran away
from Mainz because of attempted
frauds; arrested by police; declared
AASOAC Ny COuII dlIu discharged SuS-
pended by bishop for unlawful acts
and for presenting falsifed document
regarding studies he pretended to have
made. Then left diocese"
Schmidt's defense at his trial, if
he makes a real defense, will be in
sanity. Alphonse Koetble, his lawyer,
SO announced this afternoon after a
long talk with Schmidt in the Tombs.

MainZ, Germany, September 15-The
Journal says that Hans Schmidt, be-
longing to the Mainz bishopric, has

He disappeared from Mainz and

a number Of frauds( according to the
newspaper. After he had been &C.

of Observation-Disclosures, he emigrated to
New York.
The Mainz ~episopate was not
aware that he was exercising the
functions of a priest in New York.

There are four methods in common
use by which the defects Of particu-

These are by direct determination Of

preted In more than a general way;
by a study of the natural vegetation;
by pot fertilizer tests; and, lastly, by
field fertilizer tests.
Field fertilization is by far the easi.
est and most reliable method and one
that every farmer can carry out. In
short, It consists of laying out series
of plots on the land in question, APP
plying nitrogen to one, phosphorus to
another and probably potash to a
third leaving, OF course, one or more
plots untreated as checks. II clrcum.

Whv Lana Are undersIzed.

Every one is eager to add to his
fund OF information concerning the
Japanese, and there are not many lay
men who can tell why the Japs are
understood. Japanese surgeons have
made measurements OF their army,
which show that the smallness Of the
stature is due entirely to the almost
dwarfed condition of the legs. This
10 no doubt due to the fact that from
childhood the Japanese practices an
unnatural way Of sitting upon the legs.
When a Japanese child is old enough
to sit upon the floor his legs are bent
under him. This in time dwarfs the
growth OF the limbs. Actual deform.
ity is less common among the peas
ants than among students, merchants
and others Of sedentary habits. There
is no doubt the coming Japanse, who
are rapidly acquiring Occidental Gus
toms. will change this habit of sitting
upon the feet.

TANKAGE GOOD FOR SWINE.
BY |. A. Weaver, Instructor In AMI
NAL Husbandry, University
OF Missouri.

Tankage fattens. II contains the
necessary protein and ash to serve
as an excellent complement to corn
in the fattening of swine.
An enormous amount OF work has
been carried on in the last few years
by state experiment stations, with
the object In view of finding methods
of feeding which would cheaper the
cost of production and thus increase
the profits from feeding operations. q.
Work on swine feeding has shown
eonclusively that for best results corn
should be supplemented with some
feed high In protein and ash, these
nutrients being the ones which build
muscle and bone. BY using some
such supplement 1t has been found
that the cost OF production will be Is
to 40 per cent less than when straight
corn is fed Successful feeders long
ago recognized this fact and good
feeders would not now attempt to
feed hogs on corn alone.
The question is no longer, Shall ]
use a supplement-" but Is rather,
what supplement is the most eco
nomical?" Since II Is muscle or bone
building nutrients which are needed
in order to supplement corn ration,
the feed which supplies the largest
amount of these for n given price Is
the most economical, provided the
animal to which they are fed Is able
70 equally utilize the nutrients sup
piled from different sources.
An examination Of the feedstufis
available for use as a supplement- to
corn for swine feeding shows that
tankage stands well up In the list Of
economical supplements. Tankage
contains practically twice as much
protein as linseed oil meal, about -four
times az much as shorts and about IL
times as much as skim milk. II Ia
