Buys Range Horses
for Chicken Feed

An ogden man Is in Austin buying
horses which are to he killed for
chicken feed. He is paying n standard
price of ave dollars a head. all the
horses. big little. old. young. wild or
tame. sound or crippled. that are
brought to the shipping c~orrals. says
the Reyeille.
As there are a great many useless
horses on the ranges in his section. he
was not long In bargaining for n large
number. and several roundups are al
ready In progress.
As soon as sufficient horses 10 make
up a trainload are gathered, they will
DE shipped to n chicken feed plant near
Petaluma, Cal, and there slaughtered
and ground into feed for chickens.
According to Mr.. Erwin. the plant
Is very complete. and has a capacity
for killing and grinding $50 horses per
day. No part of the aniamls Is allow
ed to waste. The hides 60 to the tan
neries and become gloves. boots aud

find their way back to us as lining or
stuffing for mem coats. The hoofs
go to make glue. The flesh. bones,
blood. entrails and all are ground into
a paste and sold to feed chickens. and
the balance goes for fertilizer, for
which there is a good market all the
time.
1t ia estimated that. including the
wild mustangs In lone valley and the
adjacent hills, there are about two
thousand useless horses. eating feed
which could be used to better profit by
cattle and sheep, and this fact has a
tendency to mitigate the sentimental
feeling about killing horses.

WOMEN EXERT QUEER POWER
Sisters Dwelling on Mysterious Mount
in Burma Undoubtedly Able
to Charm Reptiles.

In the Businesses of Mount POpa, a
mysterious sacred mount in Burma,
live two sisters who have achieved Il
wide reputation for their uncanny pow
ers in charming deadly snakes. Ma
HpWa and her sister are the only living
opponents of an art which has been
handed down from generation to gen.
Grafton within the circle of their family
Their secret is most rigidly preserved
and at their death will be passed on to
their next-of-kin, as it was handed on
to them by their parents.
In a great number of cases so-called
snake charmers swindle the public by
extracting the poison fangs of their
pets, thereby rendering themselves safe
from accident. There is tragic proof,
however, to the genuine nature of the
performance of Ma HpWa and her fam
lily, in the death of sister who disre-
garded the strict traditions of the art,
King cobras are the snakes these re-
markable women use. During the per-
Torrance of charming the snakes an
ordinary Burmese band is used, while
the charmers squat on their launches
in front of the snake. They then begin
TO sway in rhythm to the. music, giving
sharp leaps each time the reptile
strikes,

Soldiers armed to the teeth guard
the trains and passengers during ex-
aminations and customs inspections,
to see that nobody gets out or in with
out the official papers.
Roads at frontier points are also
guarded by soldiers who preside over

the crossing gates of American rail-

LESS MEAT If BACK
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Take a Glass of Salts to Flush
Kidneys if Bladder
Bothers You.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys: they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly back
ache and misery in the kidney region;
rheumatic twinges, severe headaches,
acid stomach, constipation, torpid
liver, sleeplessness, bladder and uri-
nary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or If bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in glass Of
water before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made rom the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has )een used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity: also to neutraliZe The acids
in the urine so it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithla-
water drink which millions Of men md
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.-Adv.

Lexington, Ky.-As a result Of an
effort to lynch viii Lockett, 80 years
old, negro laborer, former soldier, dur
ing the progress of his trial in Fayette
Circuit Court for mistreatment and
murder of 10-year-old Geneva Hard
man, near South ElkhOrn, Fayette
county, five men are dead and scores
of others are wounded, and the city of
Lexington is under martial law, Briga-
der General Francis G. Marshall, COM
handing 100 men Of the United States
army, being in charge. The dead and
wounded suffered their injuries when
members of D Company of the State
Militia from Covington and Latonia
under command of Adjutant General
J. w. Deweese and Captain L. v.
Crockett, of Latonia, opened fire upon
a mob of men as it made a rush up
the outer front steps of the court
house. The mob was said to have
been headed by William Lockhardt
of Versailles, who, it is said, carried
a rope. Governor Edwin. 2. Morrow,
upon hearing of the rioting, called
from Frankfort for United States
troops, and 400 men of the Twenty
sixth and Twenty-eighth Infantry Reg
iments, First Division, stationed at
Camp Taylor, entrained for Lexington,
State militia and the local authorl-
ties Immediately were relieved OF
guard duty and the negro, still in the
prisoners cage in the court house, was
turned over to Brigadier General Mar
shall, who issued the following procla-
nation:
,"Whereas, a state of lawlessness ex-
lists in the county of Fayette, state OF
Kentucky, with which state authorities
are unable to cope, and,
"Whereas, the Governor of the said
state of Kentucky has asked the aid
of the United States in restoring and
maintaining order in the said county of
Fayette,
"Now, therefore, I, Brigadier General
Francis c. Marshall, United States
Army, commanding United States
troops in the said county, hereby do
declare a state of martial law in the
said county, and do assume all func-
tons, both civil and military, in said
county.
'All citizens are warned to respect
and obey my orders and those of my
subOrdinates.
The raising of the American flag on
the dawn Of the court house, signifying
the taking over of the city and county
by Federal troops, had the effect of
quieting to a marked degree the men
who continuously had been planning
how best to seize the negro if an at
tempt were made to remove him from
the court house. Brigadier General
Marshall directed that the streets
about the court house be cleared by
having his men form in line, and
gradually push the crowds back. They
did this as a drizzling rain began to
fall. BY nightfall only few except
Federal guards on duty were seen in
the streets about the court house.
Soldiers are standing guard on tops
of buildings overlooking the court
house and every avenue of approach is
covered completely with rifles and ma
chine guns in the hands Of seasoned
veterans.
