Enough to Hanq Him.

The following instance of conclusive circumStantial evidence came to light in case in which Lord Chancellor EI- tlon was employed on circuit; in later years he related it to one of his duugh- ters in these words:
 "I have heard some very extraor- dinary cases of murder tried. re- member in one, where 1 was counsel, for q long time the evidence did not appear to touch the prisoner at all and he looaed about him with the most perfect unc0ncern, seeming to think himself quite safe.
 At last the surgeon was called, who stated deceased had been killed by a shot-a gunshot-in the head. and he produced the matted hair and stuff cut from and taken out of the wound II was all hardened with blood. A basin of warm water was brought into court, and as the blood was gradually softened piece of printed paper ap- peared-the wadding of the gun which proved to be half of a ballad.
 The other half had been found in the mans pocket when he was taken. He was hanged.-London Tit-Bits

 The big hat at the bottom of the picture is of white hatters' plush faced with velvet in the color of moleskin. There is heavy chenille lattice work about the side crown, in the same color as the facing, and three little ostrich tips, also in taupe, are perched at the back as if to draw attention to the lift in the brim. A small painted apple of velvet is set in two velvet leaves at the right front.
 No color takes precedence over taupe, which is another name for mole, this season, and moleskin has outdis- tanced ether furs in the estimation of milliners, anyway. Wide scarfs of it, made up with ermine, and smaller neckpieees made to match hats on

HORSES DO NOT SWEAT
Unfortunate Condition Renders
 Many Animals Useless.
Hot Sun Beating Upon Skin Prevents Glands From Performing Func- tions-Give Water and Rest
 Quite Frequently.

i CBy W. H. DALRYMPLE, Louisiana Ex-
 pertinent Station)
 The veterinary department receives frequent inquiries during the summer months, concerning horses that do not seem to sweat when at work, either in the field or on the road. This is an unfortunate condition which renders many q good animal more or less use less while it lasts, but one that little can be done for, so long as the cause is present, viz, the rays of the hot summer sun beating down upon the ex- posed skin.
 Of course all horses do not suffer in this way and it is probable, we think, that native-born animals are much less susceptible than those from other sections of the country.
 Authorities name this condition ''thermotaXic neurosiS," which means, when translated interference with the heat-regulating apparatus through temporary paralysis of the nerve sup ply to the sweat glands. Or in other words, the hot sun beating upon the skin prevents the sweat glands from performing their function, resulting in the dryness of the skin. On the other hand, it may be observed, in the same animal. that the parts of the skin pro- tected by the harness will be found to be moist from perspiration; and on cloudy days. when the sun has been obscured sweating may be found more or less general.
 The sun, therefore, is the active cause of this conditions and while it may be possible to relieve it, tempor- arily, by treatment, as soon as the ani- nal is again exposed to the heat rays of the sun, 1t is liable to a recurrence of the trouble.
 Knowing the cause of this condition, therefore, the most reasonable method of treatment, In animals that are Em-

Sport of Wectern Roundups.

In perhaps the most daring sport of all-steer buIldogging-is revealed a feat you must see to believe; a man jumps from the back of his running horse as he overtakes q Texas long horn. If his Judgment is good, he seizes the stilettolike horns and drags the steer to a standstil. Then begins a struggle worthy of gladiator, as the man, using the horns as levers, bends and strains every muscle to throw the great beast by twisting his neck. If he succeeds in this, the classics of the game require him to hold the steers upper lip in his teeth. at the same time raising his hands for the count of four seconds; hence the term steer bulldogging. This sport is absolutely harmless in every respec, to the four-legged animal but his two-leg- ged competitor must use conSummate skill strength and nerve to protect himself and conquer his antagonist Harper's Magazine.

In 1912, for example, two-fifths of the cotton crop in South Carolina was damaged by this insect.
 The great mass of red spiders pass the winter on wild plants. With the first warm days in the spring they be- gin to multiply with great rapidity and il becomes necessary for them to seek new feeding grounds. They at | tack whatever weeds and garden plants | they may meet and ultimately find their way into the cotton fields. In the late l fall when cotton is no longer available | for them, the spiders migrate again to | the wild plants which are frequently l found in the borders of fields, and it | has been ascertained that in many | cases they infest violet beds. Alto- l gether, this insect has been found | breeding on nearly 200 species of plants. the most common of which are cotton, cultivated violet, SOW thistle, hollyhock, dahlia, garden beans, corn, tomato, onion, carnation, sweet pea, hedge nettle, nasturtium, morning glory, clover, wild vetch, ironweed, Jerusalem oak, wild geranium, evening primrose, pokeweed and strawberry.
 Immunity From Pest.
 Many of these plants are useless weeds which can well be destroyed. Where this has been done in and around cotton fields, it has been found in several instances that complete im- munity from the pest has been en- jOyed the following season. Many cases of cotton infestation from the red spider, however, can be traced to cultivated plants in nearby dooryards. Such plants should be examined close ly and sprayed as soon as they show any signs of infestation. The govern ment investigators have tested q large number of spray combinations in their work against the red spider and have found that the following are thorough ly satisfactory:
 CD potassium sulphide, q ounce to
 gallons of water) CD lime-sulpEur
 Homemade or commercially (3) kero-
 sene emulsion (prepared according to
 usual formula); (4) four-paste solu
 tion q gallon of stock paste to 12 gal ions of water). Any one of these , sprays if properly applied will kill al the mites, but a second spraying on, ; week later is necessary to kill the in sects that were in the egg stage at tn } first spraying. It is also of the utmos

 "Of what, Billy?"
 The headgear, the hat. You can't mend it-there's hole clear through the top. Make it over for yourself, eh?"

 "Myra examined the hat closely. She found a tag with its number on, "73s." She copied out the name of the maker, who operated select hat store not a mile distant.
 Myra consulted the directory. At noon the next day she devoted the lunch hour to consultation with the natter in question. She received some information which pleased her. MT. Shaw was a regular customer, had his hats made on a special block, and any order in that direction could be swift of execution.
 The office where Myra worked closed at five in the afternoon, and the next day Myra passed through the large office where her desk was, hat box in her hand, ready for the street. She had closed her desk. Now, at it stood young man. He had unwrapped q parcel and the covering lag on the floor.

Flare-Up Injuries Two

Fire in a sweetie barrel in a building
on A line of Plant No. 3 at the Carney
Point of the dupont Powder Company. at
40 O'Clock last Saturday night burned
the building with several hundred pounds
of powder and slightly injured two men.
The injured men are:
Elias Mason, PleaSantviIle, n. j., slight
ly burned about the face and hands, but
not seriously. Treated at the emergency
hospital in Plant No. 1 and later brought
to Delaware Hospital.
Charles Ceples, CHICAGO, H., wrist
slightly sprained.
A sweetie barrel is a machine in which
the powder is torn apart when it cakes.
The flare which set fire to the building
was caused by an overheated bearing.
Mason and Ceples were the only men
in the mill at the time. They made a
hasty exit, but the flare caught Mason
and slightly burned him. Ceples sprain-
ed his wrist by falling in his hurried exit
from the building.
The structure in which the fire oc-
CURED was destroyed, but the flames
were prevented from reaching any other
buildings. Representatives of the COM
pany stated that the money loss from the
fire was slight.
