WASHINGTON
Had A Jack.

Washington was the owner of the
first jack ever brought to America
The King of Spain sent him a jack
and later Lafayette sent him a jack
and two jennets. The jack sent him
by the king of Spain was quite a
curiosity in America, so Washington
sent him on an exhibition tour into
the South under the care of Col. Will
liam Washington. 1t is evident that
the jack had a hard time during the
trip for Washington wrote the Colon
ell thus:
From accounts which | have re-
ceived from some gentlemen in Vir-
ginia he was most abominably treated
on the journey by the man to whom
he was entrusted; --- for, instead
of moving him slowly and steadily
along as he ought, he was prancing
with the jack from one public meet
ing or place to another in gait which
could not but prove injurious to an
animal who had hardly ever been out
of a walk before 49, and afterward.
| presume, lin order to recover lost
time) rushed him beyond what he
was able to bear the remainder of
the journey.

COST OF PORK PRODUCTION
Young Growing Pigs Become Thin In
Flesh II Compelled to Exist
on Pasture Alone.

While liberal use of pasture I'M
doubtedly lowers the cost of produc-
ing pork, II is possible to overdo the
matter. Mature hogs will live on n
good bluegrass or clover pasture
without any grain, but young, growing
pigs become thin In flesh If compelled
10 exist ON pasture alone. Their
growth is stopped. And when this
happens they do not finish satisfac-
torily for the fall trade. Those which
are to be marketed in the spring
when year old get along very well
ON pasture alone during the grazing
season and fatten well during the
winter. From l to 3 per cent of the
hogs weight in grain along with the
pasture gives the most satisfactory
results In the majority of cases.

Modern Greek Language.

The language spoken by the edu-
Gated classes, that used in the news
papers and other modern literature of
Greece, differs from the Romaic used
by the lower classes. The former is
distinguished by greater resemblance
to the Greek of antiquity, which rem
ders II easy for anyone who has sat
isfactory acquaintance with ancient
Greek to read the literary Greek Of the
present day.

Oakland Council No. I'LL, Knights
of Columbus, held a very enjoyable
smoker in the Council chamber OF the
order in the First National bank build
ing on Monday night, at which large
number of the members of the organi-
cation and gentlemen of St. Peters
parish were present. 1t was a very
pleasant meeting and the initial one
of a number of social gatherings the
Knights have in contemplation for the
evening of the approaching winter.
Grand Knight j. NJ. Stanton pre-
sided and several talks We're made
as preliminary to the general social
session and smoker following the
more formal part of the evening.
Rev. Father James E. Connell, chap
lain and pastor of st. Peters church,
was called upon as the first speaker of
the evening, and delivered a very able
and instructive address upon the gen
eral world unrest and more particu-
larly that in America following the
great world war. He suggested ways
and means for fuller and freer I'M
derstanding among men in this time
of conflicting governmental ideas, and
emphasized the necessity of unity of
effort to bring about more complete
reconstruction and the early return
of brotherhood among men.
Lieut.. Leo J. Rasche, who was with
Co D, 10th Infantry, which fought in
France and Belgium, in which latter
country he was wounded in the ad-
vance on Voormezeele in August of
last year, was the next speaker. Mr..
Rasche gave general resume of the
events during and after the war in
France, England, Germany and Italy
and other countries abroad and cor
rected many erroneous impressions in
the minds, of his hearers. He dealt
at length with after-the-war condi-
lions both in Europe and America, and
his address was well received.
Former Mayor John W. Hart was
the next speaker and Mr.. Hart touched
upon the general public unrest and
urged sound judgment and painstak-
ing care at this time of public stress.

CHILD BADLY INJURED
By Having Its Arm Drawn Into a
Clothes Wringer.

Clothes Wringer.
William, aged three years, eldest
child of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Kahl,
who reside on Third street in Oak
land, suffered horrible injury yes
terday morning about nine o'clock
when his arm was caught and drawn
into clothes wringer, operated by a
small gas engine in the laundry of the
home.
Mrs. Kahl had set the machine in
motion and being called to another
part of the house to attend to some
household duties, she left the little
boy in the laundry telling him to keep
away from the machine. A piece of
clothing lying nearby attracted the
attention of the little one and having
watched the operation of the wringer
at other times he picked the cloth up
and fed it into the machine. Holding
to the material with his right hand it
was drawn into and through the ma
chine as far as his elbow which for
tunately caused the driveing mechan-
ism to slip and in this predicament he
was found by his mother upon her re-
turn within moment or two after she
had left the laundry.
Mrs. Kahl, assisted by some neigh
bors, attempted to release the child
but failed and running to the street
Mr.. C.sF. Hammond, who was passing
at the time, was called in and with a
hammer he was compelled to knock
the machine to bits before the little
one could be released. Dr.. Hinebaugh
was Immediately summoned and upon
examination he failed to find that any
bones in the child's arm had been brok-
en-, but the arm from the tips of the
fingers to the elbow was frightfully
bruised and may result very seriously
for the little sufferer.
