Last Tuesday morning, James Cox, who lives on one of Judge Thompson’s farms near Parr, while going about his daily work, came upon the dead body of an unknown man, lying by a hay stack in his field. He had evidently been dead some time, as his face and hands were all sunken away. He was found to have had a revolver in one hand with one chamber empty, and a watch and pocket-book, but no money, in his pocket. Whether it was a case of suicide or not could not be determined as the body was badly decomposed. He also had an envelope in his pocket which bore the address of Neil M. Burton of Fair Oaks, postmarked September 1. Burton works on a ranch near Fair Oaks and the envelope had at one time contained a letter from his brother, E. M. Burton, residing in Montana. How the dead man obtained possession of the envelope is a mystery. The man had worn a hat and a pair of pants bought of Louis Wildberg, a clothing merchant of Rensselaer. He was apparently about twenty-five years of age. The body was brought here and interred in Fair Oaks cemetery the same evening.

A Story of Everts.

When William M. Evarts was called to Washington by President Hayes as secretary of state his predecessor, Secretary Fish, gave a dinner in Jiis honor. Mrs. Fish was seated at Mr. Evarts' right hand. During a lull in the conversation Mrs. Fish turned to Mr. Evarts, speaking so clearly as 'to be heard even at the foot of the table, saying, “Mr. Evarts, I understand that you have sent two of your sons to college.” “Yes, Mrs. Fish.” “They are twin brothers, are they not, Mr. Evarts?” “Yes. and they have been playmates and schoolmates until now.” “But is it true that you sent one to Harvard and the other to Yale, although you are a Yale graduate yourself?” “Yes, it is quite true.” “Then I suppose you have done that, Mr. Evarts, so that each of them can take first honors?” Here Mr. Evarts looked curiously at Mrs. Fish*for an instant and then said very earnestly, “Mrs. Fish, you have divined correctly.”

Profitable Chicken Feeding.

Many careful tests in chicken feeding have shown that as great gains are as cheaply and more easily made when the chickens, in lots not to exceed 100, are put in a house with a floor space of 75 to 100 feet and a yard of corresponding size as when they are divided into lots of four birds each and confined in latticed coops Just large enough to hold them. Four weeks have been about the limit of profitable feeding, both in the large and small lots. Chickens gain faster while young. Birds from 150 to 175 days old give comparatively small gains.

Democrats will understand that the wild-eyed statements In the Indianapolis News, the Chicago Chronicle and other Republican papers, to the effect that there ia dissension in the. Democratic party and dissatisfaction with the administration of National Chairman Taggart are creatures of the imagination wholly. The party is united, aggressive and is going to win. That Is where the shoe pinches the Republican organs. Isn’t it strange that the Republican party when pretending to be the enemy of trusts finds it necessary to employ J. Pierpont Morgan, the great-est-of trust organizers, to act as its financial agent? Senator Fairbanks is still afflicted with the hold-on. The limited prospect of the vice presidency ain’t to be considered as in the same boat with present possession of the senatorship.
