Fox Ranehina 10 Europe.

Although IL is not generally known,
quite a number of foxes were sold last
year 10 parties residing in Europe.
mainly throughout Sweden, Norway
and Switzerland. One rancher who
has supplied n number of pairs to
these Europeans, states that the in-
dustry is spreading in IA truly wonder
ful manner in these countries, and
that this year he expects to be able
to sell practically all his foxes abroad.
There IS only one drawback at present
to general spread OF the industry
there. and that Is the rather high cost
of feeding, but this is being overcome,
and the sale of breeding stock at good
prices will amply cover the higher ex-
pense. The present rate Of exchange
IS also disadvantage, but this does
not seem TO affect those who want to
start In at the business. as the Euro
peans are now used to this. There II
most certainly a big field in Europe
for the fox industry, and that it win
some day amount to something big is
Il surety.

ODD PLEAS MADE TO JUDGE
Defendants In Berlin Court Evidently
Were Not Of the Ordinary Type
Of Malefactors.

A strange request has been made In
a Berlin court by blacksmith, Paul
Walter, who has been passing himself
Off In Berlin as Prince Pless He and
four friends were on trial for burglary
and the blacksmith demanded:
81 request that be condemned to
death If not, then send me to prison
for life. so that | shall be rendered

When the surprised Judge said ne
could not grant such a request Walter
said:
well then. put me under police su-
pervision for 20 years and think you
will see l won't do anything wrong
again, but will reform myself. II !
don't, then sentence me to death next
time"
The judge sentenced him to prison
for Is months and passed sentences
varying from three months to two and
Il half years on the others. All the
prisoners then thanked the Judge, and
the blacksmith added that he and his
friends gladly accepted the sentence

ees, Way to Warm His hands.

During severe winter, science
lecturer was delivering an address to
a. very small audience.
Presently shabbily dressed man
entered the hall. 1t was apparent that
the man appreciated the lecturers re
marks, for he had not been listening
many minutes before he began to ap
plaud vigorously.
His enthusiasm stimulated the rest
of the audience, and from that momen
the applause grew frequent and unanl-
NOUS, and the remainder Of the lee
ture passed OFF splendldly.
The lecturer, feeling grateful to his
apparently enthusiastic listener, ac-
costed him as he was leaving, and
exclaimed, heartily: II was delighte
to notice that you appreciated my re-
marks"
p Appreciated nothin' !" said the
man. Il didn't even know what you
was talkin' about. | seed the lecture
was free, an as II was cold outside,
