The thems= of the lecture was the tendency on the part of civilized people to discontinue the practice of fighting and settle na- tional differences by peaceable means. He detailed the settlements that had been made between the English and French and the Prussians and French within a short period of years, as na- tions are reckoned, and tried to show ! that the scarred wounds had been healed thoroughly by the passage of years and the salve of the spirit of peace. He deprecated any further war meas- ures on the part of na . balleving that all settlements and difficulties be- tween them could bhe justed by arbitration. —_————— Wanted Tom to Join Churcl A way of fortifying New Year's res lecture night at the His subject lutions has been propounded by a Ger-! man clergyman, who tells this story to| the Philadelphia Record: “I have in! my congregation a young married | woman, who has for some time past | been trving to persuade her husband to unite with the church. to me the other day and said: Tom is now the proper frame of} mind.

Raising of Quarantine He De- clared to Be Necessary to the Life of the Starving Herds| Y — e i SACRAMENTO, Feb. Blemer, Veterinarian, to Sacramento this morning from an | | investigation of conditions in the southern part of the State. He re- ports the outlook as discouraging for the cattlemen. He states that unless i the quarantine against the south can| be lifted, so as to permit the starving cattle to be brought north, there will be an immense loss. Already many cattle have perished from hunger-and nearly all of those remaining are too to stand shipment out of the —Dr. C. H.| returned State State. ! Dr. Blemer said he heard of buyers from Arizona and Colorado being in the south, but he expressed the opin- ion that the cattle would not survive the trip to Colorado, if the authorities of that State would permit them to| enter. While there is plenty of hay in | Colorado and some in Arizona cost of getting it to the starving cattle | in the south is too great for the cat- tlemen to think of attempting to save their herds in this way. Dr. Blemer said the range stock is too weak to stand dipping in crude oil, as advised by.Secrestary Wilson of the Agricultural Department. In any event this is not ot be considered, in view of Governor Brodie's telegram to the ef- fegt that under the statutes of Arizona cgttle from infected districts cannot be shipped into that Territory. i When told of the protest made to overnor Pardee by the stockmen of olano and Napa counties agai , ralsing the quarantine against the cat- 'tle in the south, Dr. Blemer was sorry to hear of it. He dec there would be no danger in the cattle, as none but healthy would be sent north if the quar were removed. No cattle would be al- lowed to pass to the north unless they were inspected, he said, way all cattle infected 3 feyer would be kept out. He explain ed that the loss to the northern cat- tlemen from permitting stock from south“to mingle with their herds dur- ing the drought of 1898 was due to the fact that no inspection was made then. Now there are strict regulatjons, by which all cattle can be inspected be- fore removal and any found to be fected will not be permitted to leave the infected district JUDGES DETECT FALSE PLUNAGE: H«*wrw l)wmou Rendered at Utah’s Annual Poultry Show in the of SNalt Lake City The Cal SALT LAKE, ah, Feb. 5.—Be- cause of a feather that happened be in the wrong place the Judges of Utah's sixteenth annual poultry show have reversed the decisio which A‘»\'trded to James Gunter of Ogden first prize for the finest specimen of the Brown Leghorn breed. | When the experts went'the rounds to judge in this particuiar class they stopped, spellbound with admiration, fn front of the pit that contained Gun- ‘(Ar'q exhibit, a magnificent cockerel that strutted about in full realization i of own beauty. The fowl was nearly perfect according to all the standards for judging such creatures. His plumage was all that could be de- sired, particularly his tail feathers, which Were all 3 a beautiful shade of brown. Gunter was promptly awarded first prize. | On the following day one of the judges who happened to pass the | Brown Leghorn’s coop stopped to ad- mire the cockerel. There was somee thing wrong with the bird; his ap-} pearance was not at all as it had been on the day of his triumph. The ex-| pert investigated. Inside the coop he found one of the gorgeous tail feath- ers of the fowl reposing on the floor. He picked it up and was much as-| tonished to find that it bore unmis | takable evidences of man's handicraft. | | Then the bird was examined and the | “trick was explained. Originally Mr. Leghorn has sported ,a pure White tail feather that was pretty, but which has no business on la pure bred Brown Leghorn. No | fowl in that class with a white feather | | could hope to win laurels at the poul- | y try show. Accordingly the white| | feather was cut off and one of more | suitable hue substituted. This was! ! done by means of a toothpick and a| ! bit of silver wire, a beautiful brown | feather being inserted in the quill, the | stump of which remained in the bird's | anatomy. The work was executed so | | cleverly that the trick would not have :been discovered had not the trans-| plantad feather in some way got loose. | And so, in this borrowed plumage, | |Gunters bird won the coveted prize. | But his triumph was short lived, for | the judges reversed their decision and | awarded the trophy to another ex- hibitor. | to the | i | —_————— Gives Colonist Rate to California. { i TOPEKA, Kans., Feb. 5.—The Santa | Fe Railroad announces a colonist rate 1(0 California for the months of March | and April.
