PAYMENT FOR CANAL. Treasury Warrant for $40,000,000 Da livercd to J. P. Morgan & Co. New York. May 10. The treasury warrant for $4O.Ouo,O0O on account ot the Panama canal purchase lias ben delivered to J. P. Morgan & Co. by Secretary Shaw at the sub-treasury. Secretary Shaw made a statement as to the transfer, saying: "J. P. Morgan & Co. were foruiallly appointed special disbursing agent? and their security fixed at $25,000,000. The warrant was paid as follows: $15, OOO.OOOin cash and sub-treasury order aggregating $25,000,000 drawn in fa vor of Morgan & Co.

Meantime the banks brought to the sub-treasury their respective checks aggregating a little over $27,000,000.

In this way the banks of New York city will pay into the sub treasury $27,000,000 and will receive from Morgan & Co. on deposit $25 000,000. Thus the banks will lose In tho transaction only $2,000,000 In cash I balances; the remaining $10,000,000 Is paid to Morgan & Co. directly from the treasury. . In nn informal statement the sec retary added that this method of pay ing for the Panama canal would have a reassuring effect upon financial con ditions In general. Golf Championship Meeting.

The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of ' ' ft ' illlli 77 QUAIL BREEDING. Mlssourlan Use Incubator to Hatch the Eggs. A now industry with interesting pos sibilities has been inaugurated by Uuy llordon of Columbia, Mo. ile calls It quail fanning, and Is worl'ng on the theory that the birds tan be raised on the same principle ns poul try. His experiments have demon strated that quails can be raised as easily and with as little expense as chickens, but the question of pro lit still remains to be determined. The quail farmer is at present con ducting work on a limited scale. lie has soveral acres of land. The farm is fenced with closely woven wire, which prevents the escapo of tho birds, whose wings are clipped when young, it Is tho intention of tho owner, however, to remove to Arkan sas, where he will secure .a trait of land large enough to operate the farm on an extensive scale. Ho hopes to have tho birds on tho market soon at good prices. His present design is to raise only brood quails, which now sell at $i a pair. It is purely by accident that Mr. Gordon went into the quail buslne.-s. Wh'.lo ho was cleaning a thicken in cubator one day, Speed Mitchell, of Iloone County, leaned over tho fence ond smiled with the cold disdain of an old-time farmer for "new fangled" contrivances. "Why don't you raise quails In tiiat thing" said Mitchell. "An old bird hatched a dozen back of my barn this week, and didn't'have half the trou ble about It as yuu are going to with tUut business." "Pring mo some eggs and 1 will," B.nld Cordon, and thought no more about it Mitchell came In with a doxeu eggs, fresh from a qua.l nest on his 1a.m. Gordon put them into the Incubator, and within twenty ono days nine of tho eggs were hatched. Three of the young quails died, but six lived nnd are now full grown. Ths result was so satisfactory that Gordon abandon ed tho chicken business and now has a big covey of quads of all sizes. The youngest birds are kept la a small, wire-covered quail yaid. The young est birds must bo handled with great caution, and a tnrelul regard for tem perature. They are hatched In the incubator at a temperature of 104 de grees, and while in the care of the jnother get along wed enough In the daytime without artificial heat. At night, however, it Is necessary to keep a lamp burns in the brood house to insure a tenipe-.atuio of nt least IHt decrees. Like all Incubator products the birds are surprisingly tame, and even the full grown quads can bo picked up and fed out of tae hand. The quail breeder has one peculiar obstacle to contend with In the mat ter of reproduction. A pair of quails oni e mated are united for lite. Neith er the male nor the fema.e will de sert Its mate for another, and tho loss of one out of a pair Is equivalent to the loss of both. Even after the death of ono the other Is not fit for reproductive purposes. If the hen quail is pa'red with any other bird than her original mate her eggs are barren and are never fertile. Gor don could not market the birds in Missouri at present without violating the recently enacted game law, which will for several years prohibit the killing, selling or buying of quails, owing to the scarcity of the supply. The business he is now conducting may in time prove a solution of this very problem ns to the future supply of birds for sporting purposes. If they can be ra'sed us easily us chick ens sportsmen need have no fear for the future of their sport, as It would do nw.iy with all possibility of the birds becoming extinct. The average quail hen lays about sixteen eggs a year. Tho setting season lasts three months, usually from April 1 to the last week in June. Kansas City Star. Last to See Leo. The last Americans admitted to an audience by Pope Leo XIII. were three Atlanta young women, the Miss es Mary Ilaverty, Zulu Malone, nnd Sophie Thornbury, who were received by the pontiff on July a, when his fatal illness had already begun. Miss Haverty had a letter from Bishop Kelley of Savannah to Cardi nal Martinelli, who arranged the au dience after the youn women had despaired of being received owing to the pope's health. Writing to her parents, Miss Haverty said: "To-day we had our audience with the holy father. A messenger from Mgr. ltisletl came last night with our tickets, and created quite a stir among the hotel people, who declared he was not less than 'di private secre tary of dl pope.' "Of course we had to wear black gowns and veils, and in our carriage we drove in state to the Vatican. "I wish you could see the gorgeous Swis3 guards in their red. yellow and black costumes, and noblemen In car dinal satin, and Count Montrelli, a German, who was master of cere monies, grandly decorated. "Finally his holiness, the great, wonderful old man! He looks old and frail and thin, and his hands feel as if there was no Idood In them cold and almost transparent. But hi3 voice Is still steady, though, of course, not with the vigor of n younger man. IIo was in white robes and was carried in a crimson or royal red eh'iir." Miss Thornberry, in u letter said: "The pope is just a breathing corpse, so feeble, so white, and emaciated thtit he seems already in the great be yond.
