Terre Haute, Ind. Aug. 11?Alexl anaer Bell's memory has been restorer eti to him after a lapse of 25 years. The man formerly lived in Tell City, Ind. A slight operation restored his memory. Out in Haskell, Okla., the quiet routine of Mrs. A. R. Barr's life has | been interrupted. She finds herself the wife of two men. ^ Twenty-five years ago Alexander ^ Bell left Tell City, Ind., to visit his r brother Ben Bell at Chattanooga, Tenn. Reaening Chattanooga, he lcuud his brother had moved to his country home, so the visitor set out through the woods to seek him. Nothing was heard from that ?im* until I lib returned here recently. After Mr. Bell's disappearance his vife went on with their general merchandise business. Detectives in many states and the man's two sons searched the country for him. Mrs. Bell followed a daughter to Oklahoma, met Mr. Barr and married him. Mr. Bell can remember nothing of his life for the past 25 years. Fol-; lowing a spinal adjustment, his memory returned and he began a search| for his family which resuled in the finding of a son, Andrew Bell. Be-j cause of poor health, Mr. Bell has not been told of his wife's second marriage. o NEW 1HMOKS AFLOAT IN ^ El WIN WHITE MlltDKll CASE Mullins Enterprise. Ever since the confession of Archie Turner, two weeks ago, that he uc-, cidentally shot ami killed Edwin White, various rumors have been flouting around. Hut they fail to throw any true light on the perpetrator of the deed, as almost from the begin-! nmg Archie's statement has been discredited. Various circumstances make it clear to those who have watched the case that Archie was not the one who killed Edwin Whit*- but that others of his connection either killed the aged man or had him pu' out of the way. The latest rumor heard on tinstreets yesterday in connection with the case, is that Tom Turner, the lather of Archie has confessed to the officers that he assisted in making away with the body after the killing. Sheriff ltowell and Deputy Edwardsare leaving no stone unturned in the matter and are said to be giving the prisoners some trying grillings in their effort to get at the truth. i o INDIANS SMOKE PIPE OF PEACE WITH CJOV.

Yeggsnen robbed the postoflico at Fairmont Tuesday night and escaped with $2b.nbo in currency amj several hundred dollars worth of postage stamps. Tin* money had been sent by insured mail to the Bank of Fairmont, reaching Fairmont on a late train. The money was in the postoffice safe. The robbers entered the building by prying the door open and the safe was blown open. The safe door was blown across the room and it is supposed nitro-glycerine was used by the yeggmen.

It is safe to say that l'ully 25 to', 50 per cent of the hens which make) up the farm flock of poultry do not) lay enough eggs to pay for the feed:, they const'-.e. Many hens are kept,' from 3 to 5 years on the farm, and! such individuals are always a loss! to their owner. By keeping the best i layers and culling out the poor pro-:' ducers or boarding hens a greater profit will be derived from the flock. ' Feed bills can thus be reduced and,' the best layers kept for another sea-!' son. Again, sufficient space will be i provided for this year's young stock j The hen that lays only a few eggs in the spring and early summer is usually a very early molter. That , is sne 6neas ner iraintrs auywueic ; lrom July to the middle of September. This is caused by the fact that j she is a poor layer. She lays her clutch of eggs and then starts molting her feathers. The hen that is 'a good layer will start laying in the early spring and continue producing eggs during the hot summer months.!1 She is so busy manufacturing eggs | that she does not have time to shedj1 her feathers and put on a new coat j until late in the fall. j' A hen that molts before the mid-! die of September is a poor producer, j She hus probably laid from 60 to 80,1 eggs or hardly enough to pay for the j food she has consumed. The hen that, molts after the middle of September^ is usually a heavy layer and has , doubtless produced 100 or more eggs before she lias had time to begin i molting. Jjute nioJiers will also -.bed , iIn-ir feathers in a much shorter space ot time than early molters.
