ing: "We breaths with our lungs, our
lights, our kidneys and our livers. If it
wasn't for our breath we would die
when we slept. Our breath keeps the life
a going through the nose when we are
asleep. Beys who stay in a room all dav
should net breathe. They should wait until
they get out in the fresh air. Beys In a
room make bad air called carbenlcide.
Carbenlcide Is as poison as mad dogs. A
let of soldiers were once in a black bole In
Calcutta and carbenlcide get In there and
killed them. Girls sometimes ruin the
breath with corsets that squeeze the dia
gram. A big diagram is best for the right
kind of breathing.

Intereettnar Figure Collected by
the
Aarricultural Department.
The annual report of the department or
agriculture en farm animals has this inter
esting paragraph en Texas ponies t
"The raid of Texas ponies has been somo semo some
wbst remarkable. They have Invaded
every section of the country. Thelr low
price and hardiness and endurance have
placed them In active competition with the
mule en Senthern plantations and made
them especially popular with the freed men
tenants. They have also scattered through
the Nerthern and Eastern states, where
they are found In considerable numbers,
and they are plentiful In the Recky Moun
tain regions."
The report says thai the business of rais
ing horses Is Increasing In all the states
west of the Mississippi rlver, and that there
Isajroed demand for the best sneeimens
or all the popular breeds. The presnnt
number of horses en farms and ranches Is
placed at 14,213.837) mules, 2,331,027;
milch cows, 15,952,883; exen and ethor
cattle, 30,849,024; sheep, 44,330,072; swine,
61,002,780. All these figures show an In
crease ever theso for the preceding year.
While the present year shows an Increase

Horses, $3.05; mules, $1.24; cows, $1.80;

he avorage price of both classes reached
the highest figure shown during the past
decade. In that year the aggregale value
was $1,106,715,703, whlle the prosent ret urn
makes It but $913,777,270, a decrease of
$192,938,433 during six years despite the
fact that within that period there has been
an increase in numbers amounting te mere
than 10,000,000 head.
"The present returns, show a revival or
Interest in shoep husbandry, tlie decline In
numbers which has steadily continued
since 1884 having been checked, and a
gratifying lncease In numbers ever last
year reported. This revival of Interest was
first manifest In prices in 1887, and has
since been slowly checking the docllne in
numbers. The present returns show an
Increased valuation per head ever that of
last year, amounting te 14 cents, the aggro aggre
gate value showing an increase et slightly
ever $10,000,000.
"Swlne show an Increase- In numbers
during the year of mere than ene and a
auarter million, but the price has declined
uring the same period from $5.79 te $4.72,
and the total value has fallen off $47,888,-
oe."

WHISKY, CHICKEN FIGHT, MURDEH.
A Sebor Man In a Bad Crowd Killed for
Peacemaking.
The little mining vlllage of Duryea, near
Flttaten, was the scene of a revolting
murder early en Wednesday. The victim
was a man about forty years of age, named
Hugh Graham .and the perpetrator a miner
named Jehn Pryer, Graham was un
married and leaves a widowed mother,
whose sole support he was.
Tuesday was pay day at the Halstcad
colllery, and although the wages were light
the men, as usual, Bpent It In the usual car
nival of drinking and carousing. At night
fall about two hundred tipsy miners con
gregated at a saloon. Here, after an hour's
sprucing, it was resolved te bring the day's
festivities te a wind-up in the shape of a
cock fight. It had net progressed far when
Pryer and a miner named Espey, both
drunk, get into a wrangle ever a wuger.
Pryer grabbed a rovelvor out of the
pocket of a Hungarian who steed near,
cocked It and snapped it twice in the
facoef his antagonist, but it missed fire.
Graham stepped up and seized Pryer by
the arm, finally wresting tlie weapon from
him. Peace was seen restored, and every
body supposed the trouble wasover, when
Espey walked te one slde or the pit te pick
up his coat.
Bymistake he picked up Pryer's coat
instead or his own. " Here, drop that
coat I" shouted out Pryer. "There's
money In It I" With that he made a
second dash for Espny, with the revolver
cocked. Graham, the soberest man in the
crowd, darted forward a second tlma te In
terpose, when Pryer wheeled suddenly,
and without a word sent a bullet crashing
tbreugli his right breast. Graham stag
gored a few steps forwards, the bleed
spurting out upon the murderer's
arms and vest and fell right ut
Pryer's feet. He died without speaking.
Pryer lied and all night he hid in the
weeds, but in the morning he surrendered
himself te the authorities. Squire Marcy
commuted him without ball and he was
placed in Jail nt Wllkusbarre.
Graham's body was conveyed In a lum
ber wagon, reaching home at dawn. Mrs.
Graham, the victim's mether, was sluing
up, awaiting her seu's return. She was
prostrated ever the affair and lies in a pre
carious condition. Pryer has figured in
several bad rows before tills ene and bore
the name of being a bad man.

At 9 o'clock Mrs. Williams and Mrs. Fos Fes

was coining from DelaHsusteFnriningham.
They met the wagon ahalftnllofreiii town.
August Thomsen, the driver, was told te
dismount, nnd the women armed with
axes, hatchets and hammers, began rolling
the beer out into the read. There were six
barrels, fourteen half barrels, and sixteen
kegs. They knocked the bungs out or all
the casks and dumped the beer in the road
side '
Aftcrdcmollshlngthebccr It was decided
te inarch te Deiassus and destroy a car of
beer which was side-tracked at that point.
The women took up their battle axes,
leaded themselves In the wagon, and drove
te Delaasus. Nothing has been heard from
them since, but it is presumed they get
away with the ber. Tim saloon men are
excited, and say tlrey will prosecute all the
women for malicious destruction of prop

Jehn B. Rhodes, trading as Jehn B.
Rhodes A Brethor, thoewuer of the Ashton
woolen and cotton mills, near Lentil, Del
aware county, has failed with liabilities
thus far aggregating $100,800 and assets es
timated at $.150,000. About 1,000 persons
are employed, and the products or tlie mill
amount te $1,000,000 annually.
The causoeftho treubles as explained by
Samuel Rhodes Is a goneral shrinkage of
values in textile fabrics and an extremely
sluggish market, which proventod real
izing ou a large stock ready for sale.
He also says that the tariff agitation
has contributed largely te tbe un
settled state of values, and that the duly en
wool te-day Is having a detrimental ofrect,as
well as en all ethor mills using it, nnd will
drag many of thorn down If it is continued.
Net only does It tax the manufacturer un
duly, but It excludns him from the world's
market In the distribution of his product.
