RESULT OF MOUNTAIN FEUD Assassin Disregarded Unwritten Law Among Mountaineers That Feudists Must Not Endanger the Lives of Women or Children.

The hole was brown around the edges, as though It might have been mad" by a hot poker.. Instead, It marked the course of a bullet, ono that Just three weeks ago took tho life of the baby's father while he iit-iu ner in Ills iU IIIM. The woman was Mrs. D. C. Moles, of Clinton county. She came to Ixniisvllle to testify In the case of a man named Lee, who must answer in federal court to the charge of attempting to defraud the government out of tax on whisky, which he had made at his distillery in Clinton county. 1). C. Moles was a witness in the ; case. He had to go to Albany, Ky? I the county seat, for a preliminary hearing. Moles knew tlie danger that always exists In the mountains for the i man who becomes a witness for Uncle !

Washington, D. C.?It takes a good deal to shock Washington, but It got its shock all right. Major Sylvester, head of the police department, would not put pantalets on Venus or supply her with a sweater. But he did find it necessary to drape the marble nude which Mrs. A. C. Barney had shipped from Paris to her home In Washington which stood exposed to public view in the garden of her residence. It was not modesty alone which Induced Sylvester to cover what Is thought to bo the counterfeit presentment of Mrs. Harney's daughter Natalie. Such throngs had gathered to gazo at the marble and comment on it that the neighbors complained to the major and lie eent two rtptcpdvpa ?r> mvor Miss Natalie C. Barney. It with a tarpaulin. The pieturc la of Miss Harney, who 1b said to have posed for her sister's figure of the re liming oi'fiuiy. When this statue was discovered In the Harney yard It was equal to the latest novelty In moving pictures for attracting a crowd. The people of Washington almost mobbed the Harney residence, and nearly tore down protecting fences in their efforts to got a clearer view of the nude figure. You would have thought it was the sale yard of a husted-up automobile firm If you would have noted and counted the swell automobiles lined up In front of tho Harney residence, with their owners eagerly searching for the marble figure with opera glasses. Adjacent windows were fill ed with the same morbidly curious. Taking it altogether there was a pret ty hot scene with the mob which the police were speedily called to quiet as it gathered about the Harney real dence. The only explanation made of this fltsnlllV *\f nnnnnnnnii o marble 1h to decorate some portion of the interior of the Harney residence, nnd was so big it could not be taken through windows or doors and a spe rial opening would have to bo made, and ho tho piece of sculpture was chucked down beside the garden fenco until it could be gotten Inside of the house.

A man J must be a lover of animals and posi sess a more than ordinary amount of ' patience If he la to become a prohil; nent breeder, says a writer In Country j Life. Furthermore, unless he Is able ! to place a large amount of capital In i the business he must be prepared to lock his money up for some years. Those who can afford to buy the bestbred and most typical animals of any : broed as foundation stock, and who are content to pay good salaries and . 10 competent men to taKe charge of theui, ought soon to get a | Champion good return for their Investment. PerBonn "with limited means must, be satisfied to start with a few animals less perfect in type and conformation or with aged individuals which can be picked up for comparatively little money, and then gradually breed up a stud herd or flock. The latter plan, unless one Is a good Judge of stock and a practical farmer, is the one I 6liould advise. Clever and experienced breeders are apt to make mistakes In buying, mating and rearing their stock it in miii; iu iiuiciiusu ins experience very dearly If ho starts brooding on too largo a scale. The situation and soil of one's farm should govern, to a groat extent, the variety of stock which It Is decided to keep. Lincoln sheep, for Instance, would not pay to roar on the mountains where the Scotch black-faced mountain or the Herdwlck breeds exist. Or, again, the hardy Southdown 1 thrives on the short, scanty herbage that grows on his native hills, where larger sheep would starve. Many j breeds of livestock appear to ho specially adapted to the locality In which they nro horn, and one always runs a risk when Introducing: a fresh variety of animals Into any county. Not only does It take some time for a breed n<>w to the district to become acclimated, hut It is always difficult to dispose of one's surplus stock In a cn/rn a i i/imim OIL V HIyAL IU1ND, Of the several breeds of Leghorn, tlio white Ih the most popular and the brown next.

It is true that some breeds seem to flourish almost anywhere, notably shorthorn cattle and Shire horses; but an owner of Shires who brings them up on light, thin-skinned land Is severely handicapped when his horses come into the show-ring. He then finds that his rivals who occupy stiffer and richer soil can produce anl-| mals with more bone and hair than hel can. Large, well-shaped feet, plenty! of bone and good joints are absolutely necessary nowadays on a flrst-classl animal of this breed. Shire horses are especially adapted for town work and for hauling heavy loads, nnd one can judgo from the j photograph of this strong, heavy and I yet compact nmre how sultnblo this breed is for that purpose. The Clydesdales are not such massive horses as are the Shires, neither are they so large In the hone, but the strength and', slope of their pasterns and the actlv-j Ity of this breed are proverbial. A su-| Clydesdale. perabundanoe of hnlr on a Clyde#-) dale's legs la not considered neces-j sary, as It 1h on those of the Shire;' this can be Been by glancing at the il-t lustration of Jloyal Guest, the cham-f plon Clydesdale stallion nt this year'^ ltoyal. The Suffolk horso Is preferred' when quito clean-legged, 1. e., with no long hair on hts legs. It Is a very active, quick animal, with any amount of pluck and endurance, and no bree(J la better suited for farmwork. Suf? folks, like Clydesdales, are also suit' able for working In towns, whdru strong, quick-moving horses are need? ed. Suffolk horses have been knowij to live to a great age, and longevity is claimed to bo a special feature o| this breed. Horgcflesh Consumption.
