Tho violet eyes looked up Into his and a flush mantled her checks. "Thank you no much," sho said. "You muBt have seen mo when I dropped It." The, II. S. M. said no, but with an accent tliat did not make It sound like a harsh word at nil. "I know It was yours," ho said, "because It Just matched tho color of your gown. I was much worried until I found you, for I know that tho con tents must bo very valuable. Do not mention It at all. It hns been roward enough to havo returned thoso jewels to you." Sho shook tho leather-covered box apprehensively and listened. "I suggest'," said tho II. S. M., "that you examine tho contents before you go further. Perhaps soma of them might bo missing. My ofllco is at your dis posal tf you wish to do so." And so she of tho violet eyes went to tho office and tho II. 8. M. said ,io one of his assistants, "Odell, Just glvo tho lady this dosk, will you. Sho would like to make an Inventory of her Jewels, which Bho Just lost and found again." And bo she of tho violet yes opened tho lid of that leather bound box, and these aro what sho took out, ono by ono: Ono small mirror, cracked. Ono rabbit's foot. Ono comb. Ono bottle of perfumo.

Don't you think It is an especially nlco ono? Every thing Is all right but tho llttlo mirror. Thank you so much. Good-by. You havo been very kind."

A Maxim slloncor on tho wedding chimes failed to work when Charlos F. Passow, a fireman, married Miss Margarot Mulligan at ner Homo, 1340 North Avers avenue. PasBow recently asked for a furlough, but did not explain that ho Intended to bo married. Ho had heard of tho pranks played on prospective bridegrooms by their heartless mates in tho flrehouso. So he decided to havo a secret wed ding. Passow and his flancoe picked out a sunny flat at E305 Maryland avenue, and during his hours off thoy visited furnlturo emporiums and picked out all the accessories dear to tho hearts of tho newly-married. Dut Passow underestimated tho discernment of tho other member of tho englno company. Mr. and Mrs. Passow went to their now homo after tho wedding tho other night. Passow tried to open tho door, but tho key would not work. This was because tho mombera of company 19 had plugged up all tho koy holes. In a rage hotter than moat of tho Area ho has turned the hoso on, Passow struggled with tho koy until finally ho and his bride gained entrance. On tho dining-room table thoy found an elaborate set of aluminum kitchen utensils with a card convoying tho company's best wishes. ' "They are Just beautiful," Mrs. Passow said. "Yes, tho boys aro pretty good-hearted, oven if thoy do havo their llttlo joko," Passow conceded. Then ho suddonly missed tho bod. Onco moro he felt murder In his heart. He raced back and forth through tho flat and at last found that tho door of a cloBet was locked and tho keyhole stuffed. PaBsow got a chisel and hnmmor nnd got tho door open. Tho bod had been carefully taken down and stored In tho closet. y Alter thoy talked tho matter, over, Mr. and Mrs. Passow decldod that thoy could afford to forglvo tho Jokers. This Couple Knew a Good Cow When They Saw It MUNCIE, IND. Charles Shlck, when ho retired from tho morcantllo busi ness, moved to a suburban homo. Ho had always wished to live out where' ho could koep chickens, a driving horso or two, and a cow. Whenever Shlck and his wlfo drow mental plans of their suburban homo thoy Included a Bketch of an ideal cow. In fact. thoy decided thoy would spend, if neo ossnry, n hundred dollars for a cow, but It must look llko a, hundred dol lara' worth of cow. Aftor thoy be came Bottled In thoir now homo they started out cow-shopping. Thoy read tho classified advertisements and can vasBod Dolawaro county's 12 town ships. Thoy saw a lot of cows, but none looked llko tho cow thoy wished. Then tho county fair camo. Shlck and his wlfo went. At tho cattlo barns they saw a cow. It belonged to tho genua Jersey. Its eyes woro soft and mellow. Its hoofs and horns woro neatly manlcurod. Its fawn-colorod coat was beautiful to behold. And as for tho general symmetry and. makeup tho animal would suit the most exaotlng. The herdsman said this particular cow ,was an abundant milk producer. Ho said It was as sweet tomporod as a fat baby. Tho Shlcks exchanged knowing glances. Vorlly they had, at last, found a cow that looked llko tho mental picture they had drawn. "I suppose you will sell this cow?" Shlck asked? "Yes, It Is for sale," said the herdsman. "How much do you want for the animal?" said Shlck. "Well," Bald tho herdsman, "It Is one of the best animals In tho herd, but wo'll take fifteen hundred dollars for the cow," Shlck clutched at his wife's arm. Thon thoy Btartod across tho fair ground toward tho grandstand. For half an hour nolthor spoko. Then Shlck broke the alienee. Ho turned to his wlfo and In a meek volco said, "Say, wife, we know a good cow when wo soo ono, don't wo?" For maintaining or restoring tho fertility of tho fields there Is nothing boter thnn barnyard mnnuro. Dy tho ordinary mothods of piling manure on tho ground or storing it in wooden pens or boxcB, 30 to 50 per cent of its fertility la lost, according to tho U. S. Department of Agriculture. This loss is brought about In two ways: First, by leaching or washing duo to heavy rains; second, by fer mentation or heating caused by lack of sufficient moisture. Slnco concrete pits aro waterproof, manure may bo kep"t In them aa moist as may bo necessary and such an enormous wasto in tho fertility of tho manure may thus be entirely prevented. Ono load of manure from a concrcto pit ia worth V& to 2 loada of manure as usually stored. Moreover, with con crete pita tho supply of manuro Is increased by all tho liquid manure, tho richest part, from tho barn gut ters and feeding floors. Shallow manuro pits do very well whore tho manure can bo frequently hauled to tho fields. The walls nnd floor should be 5 Inches thick. The clear dimensions of tho pit nre: Depth, 3 feet; width, C feet; length, 12 feet. Dig tho trench 3 feet 5 Inches deop by G feet 10 Inches by 12 feet 10 Inches.

For tho sides cut the 1-inch Biding 12 feet long and nail It to tho four 2 by 4 Inch uprights 3 foot lone and equally spaced. The end uprights for tho sides aro 2 by 4 Inch pieces nailed flat to tho siding; the others aro also 2 by 4 but aro nailed on edge. It Is not necessary to cut thoso uprights to exact lengths; thoy may bo allowed to extend above the Biding. Mako tho aiding for 'tho end Bectlons of tho form B feet 2 inches long and at tho ends nail it to the edgo of two 2 by 4 Inch uprights. Place a Blnglo 2 by 4 upright between each end pair. Cut four cross braces, 5 to 10 Inches long, from 2 by 4 Inch timbers. Have enough flections of wovon-wlro fencing, 7 feot long, to cover the bottom of the pit. Sot up the forms on tho finished floor so as to allow a B-lnch wall on all aides. Join them by nailing to gether tho 2 by 4'b at tho cornora of the aides nnd ends. Do not drlvo the nalla homo. Cross-brace with 2 by 4's nnd with 1-Jnch bonrds from each cen tral end upright to tho second side up right. Quickly begin filling tho forms with concrete almost wet enough to pour, and lteop It practically tho same height on nil sides. Puddlo tho con crete by running a long paddlo up and. down next to tho form. Do not punch tho earthen wall. Dirt In the concrcto may mako a poor wall.

To koop out floor water, tho pit may be extended C Inches abovo tho ground by using tho lower hnlf of a 1-foot bourd to hold back tho dirt, by allowing tho romalndor to project above tho ground lovol, nnd by adding C Inches to tho holght of tho Inside form.

In tho unheaval of the last low months due to digging tho Broad way subway beneath tho historic graveyard, some of tho atones woro ro movod temporarily nnd others were covered with wooden frameB to save them from injury by the subway labor ers. That part of tho subway work has been completed and tho grave atones havo been replaced, and now grass has been planted over tho graves. In tho last row la a plain white ntono upon which may faintly be traced tho name "Georgo I. Eackor." A few yeara ago tho date, 1804, could be discerned, but It is now illegible. The stone has long censed to attract attention and It would doubtless sur prise most of the visitors to St Paul's to learn that tho white sandstone slab marks tho burial place of the young man who killed the eldest son of Alex ander Hamilton In a duel three years before General Hamilton was killed In his duel with Aaron Burr. Hamilton Received Fatal Wound. Philip Hamilton was not quite twen ty years old when he crossed tho ferry to the dueling ground at Weehawken to faco Eacker, one of tho young law yerB of tho tlmo who waa attached to tho political party of which Aaron Burr was tho acknowledged leader. Tho meeting took placo on Monday afternoon, November 23, 1801. David S. Jones was one of Hamilton's sec- tleth year of his age, Philip Hamilton, eldest 6on of General Hamilton, mur dered In a duel." Tho cause of the duel, as It appears In tho light of tho present day, seems trivial. At tho Fourth of July celebra tion of 1801, George Eacker delivered an address which by his partisans waa received with great praise. Ho criticized tho federalist, which an gered tho party favorable to Hamilton. A few days beforo the duel, Philip Hamilton, with a friend named Price, occupied tho same box at tho old Park theater on Park Itow, with Eacker and Bomo of Eacker'a friends. The Park tfteatcr was nearly in tha middle of the block between Ann and Beekmun streets, a llttlo abovo the present Park Row building. Hamilton and Prlco Indulged in somo laughing remarks about Eackcr's speech. The latter, overhearing the conversation, asked Hamilton to step into tho lob by. Price followed. There waB a Blight altercation, ending by Eacker'a using tho word "rascals." According to the dueling code, that demanded satisfaction. After the performance, tho three men repaired to a nearby tavern and when Eacker was asked for whom he meant the epithet he re plied. "For both." He then left, say ing: "I shall expect to hear from you." Challenges were Issued tho next day, that of Price being accepted first. Eacker and Price met at Weehawken on Sunday, November 22, and after exchanging four shots without injury, the seconds stopped the duel. Hamll.

"When I found hlra I hurrlod to his apartments and turned tho big bunch of caBh over to him, with nover thought of reward. "But ho waB so overcomo with tratltudo and Joy, ho Insisted that I be rewarded. Ho drow a dime and a quarter from his pocket and studlod thotn for fully a mlnuto.

Cutter for Silage, There aro on the market several makes of silage cutters that will glvo satisfaction, according to Farmers' Bulletin 578, issued by TJ. S. Depart ment of Agriculture. Tho capacity of tho machine la an Important consid eration which should not bo over looked by tho purchaser. Many per sona mako tho mistake of getting a cutter which is too small, thus ma king tho operation of filling tho silo very slow and interfering with the continuous employment of tho entire force of mon. It la better to get a machlno largo onough so that overy ono will bo able to keop busy all tho time. Tho larger cutters aro equipped with Belf-feeders, a labor-Baving devico which tho smal ler sizes lack. Other factors to bo taken Into uccount in purchasing a cutter aro tho amount of work to bo done and tho power available. Of course, for the filling of a very small silo It would not bo wise to buy a largo machlno. Neither would it be advisable- to overload tho engine or motor by using a cutter which Is too largo for the power available. Two types of silage elevators aro In us tho old-style chain carrier and the blower. Tho chain carrier re quires less power, but is harder to set up and there Is moro litter when it ia usod, especially In windy weather. For theso reasons tho blower is now fast displacing tho carrier, Tho blower should bo placed as nearly perpendicular as possible so as to reduce to tho minimum the. friction of tho cut corn upon tho Insldo of tho plpo and lessen tho danger of clog ging. Tho power necessary to operate tha cutter will dopend upon its slzo and whether tho elevator la a chain car rier or a blower and upon tho rate of feeding. It is posslblo by feeding Blowly to get along with less power than would bo requlrod whon feeding to the full capacity of tho machine. As a rule, however, thero should bo sufficient power to. run tho cutter at full capacity, and even a little surpluB 1b advisable. If a gasollno englno 1b usod, about 1 horsepower for each 1-Inch length In the cutting cylinder; that Is, a 15-Inch cutter will tako a 15-hor8opower engine, an 18-lnch cut tor will requlro nn 18-horsopowor en glno, and so on. If a steam englno la employed, the power should be at loaBt two-thirds of thnt Indicated for the gasoline engine. Tho usual length of cutting varlos from one-half to 1 Inch. Tho Intter Is considered a llttlo too long, since plocca of this length will neither pack so closely in tho silo nor bo so com pletely consumed whon fed as tho shorter lengths. On tho other hnnd, tho longer tho pieces tho more rapidly can tho corn bo run through the cutter. B&ggSrgaBggaaaii ST PAUL'S CHURCH. NEWARK Attractive Neitt.

As tho two young men faced each other there was a brief pause, then Eacker, it la said, leveled his pistol with accuracy, and, firing, shot Hamilton In the right side. Hamilton's pistol was discharged at the same time, but It did no damage. Tho woundod youth was brought back to this city and died the next day. The duel aroused great excitement and the newapnper8 devoted far moro attenllou to It than was customary for those affairs of honor at the time.
