THE TREspAssER

she knew it she had struck him.
The car swerved, but she had her
foot on the brake now and stopped
short. He lay face downward at the

Under his orders she went for helm

when she came in, and his face was

VILLAGE OF POTTERY MAKERS
Mexican Community Practically Has
No Other Industry-Each Home
Workshop.

In Mexico typical pottery village
lies on a wooded mountain side not
far from Cuernavaca, the capital OF
the State of Morelos, over the range
that divides the valley of Mexico from
the Pacific slope
1t is one of the most interesting and
most accessible from the capital and
well repays a visit. To enter its one
winding street, where never wheel
turns except to carry curious visitor,
is like stepping backward into the past
centuries.
Every humble home has its primitive
potter's wheel and every yard its crude
kiln. None of the inhabitants do any
thing but make pottery; there is no
other industry of interest. A common
scene is a man putting the finishing
touches to a brasero. the small char
coal stove used by all the peon popula-
ton of Mexico
1t rests on top of huge jar, or ola.
in which they carry and keep water
from the springs and streams. The
women often make parillas, the earth
en- gridirons on which tortillas are
baked
The decorated vases are a compare
lively modern invention, made by in
sorting bits of broken imported china
in the unbaked clay.
Many ingenious and artistic designs

.JAPAN|s [OIGET
F|RS'TB|5 ORDER
For Construction of Large Pas.
senger Steamers for the
Russians.

TOXIC. Sept. 1S.-Special advices
from Petrograd give Importance to
the announcement that the Russian
Trade and Navigation Company OF
Odessa, has decided to give Japanese
shipbuilding yards it's first big order
for the construction of several large
passenger steamers. The Russian
ministry of trade and industry
throughly approves the decision OF
the company as the beginning of an
economical rapprochement between
Russia and Japan which promises to
have a great future.
At the outset there will be ordered
eight frst-calss ships for the Crimea-
Caucasus line, after which the com-
.pany has in view an order for a se-
.cond group Of steamers for its for
-eigh service on lines which before
the war were in the hands Of the
Germans. Heretofore there have been
no steamers of Japanese construc-
ton among the vessels Of the Russian
merchant marine.
At the present time several repre-
sentatives of Japanese yards are in
Odessa where. together with Russian
engineers they are drafting plans for
the vessels and conditions to be OBJ
served in construction. Several cap
tains Of the Russian company have
also been ordered to visit Japan.

tous. The men were taken to their
homes at the mining settlement and

On Pike Street is Despard Car.
and Traffic is Tied Up
for an Hour.

Street car traffic on the Pike
street line Of the traction company
was tied up for a little over an hour
early Saturday night as the result
Of the derailment Of a Despard car
just in front of the Catholic church.
No one was hurt.
The accident happened about $3.50
o'clock, and few minutes before
o'clock the car had been replaced
on the rails and traffic was resumed.
Traction officials said that the ac-
cfdent was probably caused by the
new schedule. which was put into
effect early Saturday evening when
the Elk creek bridge on Main street
was ordered closed. The new sched-
ule provides that the Despard and
other cars shall travel eastward on
Pike street, instead Of MEIn. II
was said that the reversing Of the
ears was the probable cause of the
accident.

BRIDGE c. CLOSED %.
As RESULT Of
AUTO ACCIDENT
Support Of Elk Greek Bridge
Knocked from Foundation
by the impact.

All traffic across the Elk creek
bridge near the corner Of Main
street and Monticello avenue. was
ordered stopped late Saturday at
ternoon as the result OF an auto.
mobile, driven by H. T. Travis.
striking the east end of the bridge
with such force as to knock one Of
the supports of the bridge from It's
foundation. Mr.. Travis and two
young women stenographers, en-
ployed at the Travis Glass Com
lpsny. escaped unhurt.
bridgeport cars on the traction
line are being detoured by way Of
Pike street, while passengers on
Broad Oaks cars are forced to walk
from the bridge to the city. Pedes-
TRANS are allowed to cross the
bridge. but are warned by, officers
that they do SO at their own risk.
a Broad Oaks car crossed the
bridge few minutes after the acct
dent, and as result the center Of
the bridge sank several inches. The
order to stop all traffic was issued
Dy Mayor 9. Il. Gordon as soon as
he learned Of the accident
According to Mr.. Travis he was
going east and the north wheels OF
his. automobile were between the
street car rails. An automobile and
q wagon were crossing west down
the Main street hill, he says, and
ne turned sharply to the right. The
wheels skldded on the wet rails ana
the car plunged into the east end
OF the bridge. The fact that Mr..
Travis was driving slowly at the
time probably accounts for the fact
that no one was hurt. The wind
shield, radiator and one fender OF
the automobile were crumpled I'M
by the impact. =
1t IS said that the bridge sank
ABOUT eight inches within the few
seconds after the accident. A few
minutes later q Broad Oaks cal
crossed and the bridge went down
further. The matter was then re.
ported to Mayor Gordon and he i'm.
mediately ordered the bridge closed
and sent two officers to the scene IL

linn TELLS FARMERS
WHAT STOCK TO KEEP
Large AssembIage Of Farmers
Listen to the County Az
ricuIturaI Agent.

w. D. linn. county agricultural
agent, discussed live stock and fill
ing and sealing silos Saturday after
noon in the court house before a
large attendance Of Harrison county
farmers, and the meeting proved
one of much helpfulness to all in
attendance.
Horses. cattle. sheep and hogs
were dwelt upon in particular by
Mr.. linn. and he laid special enl-
rhasis on having only pure bred
3sires from chicken up to horses.
Draft, saddle and driving horses re-
ceived his attention and he advised
the farmers to grow draft rather
than driving or saddle horses. For
the farmer who keeps two teams all
or part Of the time he suggested
that brood mares be kept so that =
few colts could be raised every year
and thus make the mares nay a part
of their way. s
Three kinds Of cattle were dis
cussed, namely, Herefords, Short
Horn and Aberdeen Angus. He
stated that short horns were better
for milk and butter, while the other
wv A4uOS were D6LLer IOr D6eL ana
easy ewintering. He declared that
we are living in an age too fast to
keep cattle until they are three
years old, and that they should be
prepared for the block at the age
of two years. Dairy breeds such as
the Jersey were given his attention
and it was his observation that Jer-
seys are the most numerous in this
county, and better for butter. while
Holstefns were better for milk, but
not of great value for fats.
Mutton and wool sheep were dis
cussed and he deplored the fact that
there were too many dogs in this
county. He said the most profitable
sheep for this county are Shropshire,
Southdown, Hampshire Down. Ok
ford Down and Dorset Horn. He
said thy are all finne e..a the kind
for farmers to keep depends on his
fancy, as he will thus take better
care of them.
Mr.. linn said he found farmers
in this county keeping hogs on plank
floors, when in fact they ought to be
out grazing at least two thirds OF
the year.
Mr.. linn also made brief talk
on seeding rye and fertilizers.
