HIGH PERCENTAGE
IN QUAIL HATCH
Twelve of Fourteen Eggs From
Riverside Produce Chicks.

Twelve of the fourteen abandoned quail
eggs sent by julius Hitting, superin-
tendent OF Riverside park, to the state
game experiment station for incubation
have Matched and dozen healthy quail
chicks are the result, Frank Hasselmon n,
supervisor, writes to officials of the de-
partment of conservation.
This is a remarkable record" says
Mr.. Hasselman, "as the eggs were sent
parcel post by the ordinary mail dellv-
cry"
1t would be considered good If so per
cent of chicken eggs sent the same way
would hatch at this time of the year,
he claims.
Wonderful progress is being made 1t
this station, where the state is expert
menting with the propagation of game
birds and small fur bearers.
Out of thirteen quail Matched from a
setting of fourteen eggs, Mr. Hasselman
says, only one bird died and this one
incubated a day behind the others and
had to be assisted from its shell.
At S1a weeks of age these birds are
festhered out, and at IS days old, when
ne opened the door of their enclosure
they rose en- masse with burr of wings.
Altt OF LhS CHICKS escapeu, ana the
wings of the others have been clipped
u prevent their sudden departure to the
open
While quails Matched at the station
mature rapidly it is interesting TO noe
that It takes five 1-day old qrails TO
weigh one ounce.
Young turkeys at days old average
two ounces.
Experience has taught that in propa-
eating wild game bird life the danger
In rearing both pheasants and quail Is
not in undertaking but in overlooking.
They must be fed little at a time
and often, to initiate nature so far as
POSSIBLE in the wild state, where they
find bug here and seed yonder
Five regular feeding periods each day
are maintained at the station
At this time there Is at the station
six wild turkeys, fifty seven quail. TWEEN
y-seven Maliard ducks. sixty four Eng
hsh pheasants eleven golden pheasants
eight sllven pheasants. The station keeps
about thirty bantam hens, used for IN
cubating the quail and pheasant eggs.

MARSEILLES, July 10.-No pirate Of

French steamer Sourah off Batum re
Gently just like an old time train robbie;

The story of the holdup has just beef
told here by Capt. Mattel of the Sou

Calamity was one of the conspicuou:

They begged pardon before breaking

WAS PLEASANT
PIRATE BAND!
If Capt Mattel had read certain
volume Of sea stories by an American
author he would have said that the chief
of the band was "the pleasantest pirate
who ever cut a throat or scuttled a
ship"
Here is part of the captains story:
I'VE left Batum on May with about
900 passengers, Of whom a large part
were French.
"The twenty five bandits who finally
held us up came aboard with tickets and
passports in order.
They were quiet and affable, although
remembered later that they professed
to be bolsheviki.
I'VE were on our way TO Trebizond
when about o'clock in the evening the
bandits, who had taken up strategic po-
sitions all over the ship. covered me and
my officers with revolvers and announced
that they owned the vessel.
"'rhey proceeded to demolish the wire

them kept watch over US the rest went
through the saloons and cabins.
They inspected everything.

EXQUISITE GRACE.
They broke into trunks.
THE pirates were very gallant espe-
cially toward the French women pAssen-
gers.
Il saw two Of them, Georglans, be.
lieve, who bowed with exquisite grace be-
fore one woman who was in a panic Of
fright. and tell her in passable French
not to worry.
"They took her bag, emptied II and
handed It back with thanks
Others kissed the women's hands and
Then taetfully drew jewelied rings from
the fingers they had just embraced.
The loot amounted 10 about 1000 000
francs.
"one Freuchman lost 10000 francs
and a Persian passenger was relieved Of

AT o'clock in the morning the chief
Of the band ordered Capt. Mattel to sail
toward the coast.
When about a mile of shore the band
commandeered two boats and rowed
away, shouting Bon voyage, and waving
their hands TO the passengers"

MAN WHO BROKE
JAIL KEEPS NERVE
Hardacre Tries to Meet Cell
mate Aboard Train.

Attempts to recapture the fifteen fed

Of the Marion county jail delivery last
Monday morning took a new form today
as a result Of bold attempt on the part
of Harry Hardacre, one of the escaped
prisoners, to communicate with former
cell mates on their way to the federal
prison at Atlanta, in a special car in
charge Of United States Deputy Marshal
c. f. Wicker, who returned yesterday
afternoon.
Deputy Whicker said the train was
nearing Lexington, KY, last Thursday
night, when a man came to him and
asked to speak to Harry O'Havre, one
Of the federal prisoners.
The man, who he afterward learned
was Hardacre, became insistant, Wicker
said, at which he asked him the rela-
tons between o'Havre and himself
LEAVES TRAIN
AT LEXINGTON.
Before the train reached Lexington,
Hardacre left it, Deputy Wicker
said, and it was then that one of the
prisoners told him that the man was
Hardacre.
A search Of the train was made
Deputy ulCheT ediU, DuE ddruacre
could not be found, but an inquiry the
next morning brought to light that
Hardacre was a member of a aarty Of
marine recruits who had boarded the
train at Cincinnati with orders 10 re-
port to the forwarding station at At
lanta.
Noncommissioned officers in charge of
the party said that Hardacre had enlisted
Monday at Cincinnati under the alias of
Harry e. Denny.
Nothing had been seen of him since the
train left Lexington the night before, the
noncommissioned officers said.
PROMISES TO REPORT
AT ATLANTA.
Information received upon his arrival
at Atlanta, Deputy Wicker said, was
that Hardacre. using the name Of Harry
E. Denny, had telegraphed to Atlanta the
night before that he missed the train at
Lexington while at lunch and that he
would report to marine officials at At
lanta as soon as the arrival of the next
train.
The Atlanta police will keep on the
lookout for him, he said

DINNER SERVED
WHILE BATHING.

At dinner time tables bearing meals
were foated out so that the bathers
could get the benefit of the medicirai
waters while enjoying a dinner party.
Afterwards those present played games
al the floating tables, or sang and played
musical instruments in the water
The bathing suits of the time were. as
we have mentioned, OF linen or muslin.
though at some resorts where men and
women bathed separately, a necklace and
wreath of flowers were considered ade-
quate costume.
After this, there was a gap in the bath
ing suits career.
By 1860 men were beginning to wear
one-piece suits as the practical thing for
swimming but the women were all
sewed up in blue serge from choker col
lar to ankle-length boomers and a knee
length skirt besides, for extra protec-
ton
Even at that it was not considered
quite proper for ladies TO appear in pub
lie in bathing suits, especially if men
were bathing nearby.
The radicals OF the day took great
pains to demonstrate that these envelOp-
ing bathing suits were modest and suit
able and insisted that eventually the
public would get used to them
But as soon as the public stopped talk

STORY OF CABLES
DURING WAR IS A )
ROMANCE OF TRUTH
(From the New York SUM-

One would have imagined that in
the flood or war romances and trag-
edies and mysteries told in news pub
locations in the last six years, that
there would be nothing more to tell
but now a new story of the war, con-
corning which only a few guarded
words have previously been spoken,
has come to light in a short news
dispatch from Washington.
This is the story of the cables, and
how they were controlled by the allies
during the war. The dispatch con-
Germs the disposal of the former Ger
man cables, which are to be divided
among the allies, but the story which
will be of most interest is that of
how these important systems of com

Germans during the war days when
they needed their assistance the most.
Cut in Straits of Dover.
All the cables connecting Germany
with far off countries have their base
at Emden and all of them must pass
through the Straits of Dover.

wholly upon her powerful wireless
station at Nauen to spread her com.

The cables connecting Germany
with her African possessions were also
cut as we'll as those which carried
her messages to the Isle Of zap and
from there to the far East. In this
way much important news was held
up.
U. S. and Japan Want Same Cables.
1t was not until 1917 that any at
tempt was made to turn the use of
those cables into the service of the
allies. Then one of the cables running
to the Azores and from there on to
the United States was repaired and
diverted to connect with Halifax and

was made at a point about six hun
dred miles off the shore Of New York
and carried from there to the Halifax
station. At about the same time the
French also diverted another cable to
serve them at Brest. Both of these
cables are in service today.
That the disposal of the German
cables will be OF tremendous interest
to all the countries concerned is as
sured. OF particular interest to the
United States are the cables which
center on the Isle of zap and connect
there with the Pacific cable, which

points in the far East. Lying between

an intricate and delicate economic fabric and in
seriously strained national mechanism with in
creased Capitalization of government"
The ews believes that the increases of urban
population at rate seven times of the country
is not attributable to the lack of land, to the
fact that the country is crowded but is due to an
unintelligent rural policy.
On this point it says:
"The evil is largely in the instability and the
meagerness of farm profits. For crops put in
and cultivated at high cost, farmers have seen
in recent weeks, for example, sudden and I'M
practicable decline in prices which may wipe out
their profits. A broad analysis of farm incomes
made by the federal department of agriculture
shows that the average farmer receives less than
$500 year for his work and management. An
average profit of 1851 week affords no sound
economic basis for the nations food supply.
"By better methods cultivated lands
could be made to produce 10 to 100 per cent
more than they now produce. Besides there is
much vacant land But this possible increase in
production is restricted economically. Under
present conditions increase in production does
not always pay. Distributed unorganized agri-
cultural interests cannot compete for labor or for
profits with the highly organized industries of
the cities. Besides, there are many other OBJ
structions, such as lack of agricultural skill and
expert training on the part of large proper
ton of the farmers. This, as in most other
cases, such as lack of rural attractions and of
educational facilities, is really an aspect of the
farmers general economic helplessness.
"The American rural problem is not the least
Of the grave issues of the day that insistently
demand the attention of constructive minds"
