The best authorities on Mexican af fairs here declare that Ihmantour. backed by European and American financiers heavily interested in Mexi can properties, forced the resignation of the Diaz cabinet, and is now him self seeking to become the real dicta tor cf Mexico. Fresh from his conference with the moneyed masters of the worid. both here and abroad. Eimantour carried an ultimatum to Diaz and his associ ates. It was. simply, that there must be peace in Mexico. The holders of Mexican investments, totaling toward • wo billion dollars, powerful in tnelr home government, would not stand by white Diaz, with conscripted armies, plunged the country indefinitely it.: a state oligarchy, while battling the revolutionists. That such was the . r\ii* policy. Umar.tout poimed out. clearly is proven oy v*:e conceuvthliou o; the United States regulars in Texas There must be an abandonment of the reign of the mailed list, this traveled minister argued, and efforts made at solution through the veivcty band cf diplomacy and compromise. It has been well unaert'ccd here lor some time that the American financial interests, deeply concerned ir. Mexican oil. mineral and railroad properties, caused the suucen concentration of the American troops in Texas Then. Erst at Paris, then in New York, and finally on arriving at Mexico <. ity. Limantour issued interviews distinctly critical of the Diaz methods He plainly favored reforms and conciliatory tactics toward the Madero revolu tionists. In the days of Diaz's supremacy, such utterances from a subordinate would have met with the severest punishment. But. apparently, Limantour is the first man in 30 years of Mexican history to make Diaz back down. The treasury wins an initial victory ever the war department. It seems likely that Ltmantour has seized the real scepter. Not that Diaz for the present will relinquish the chief office, but that the old "king' hr.s been ■ made to realize his weakness and has "abdicated” to a new sort of domi cation. Mexicans here say that Limantour has been working to this end for several years He financed the nationalization of the Mexican Railways, brought outside capital into his country, and regards himself as the trustee of the investments. Now. when a crisis threatens the investments, he is attempting to serve as the executor of the state. ; NEW SENATOR FROM NEW YORK Janies A O'Gorman. a justice of the New York supreme court since 1900 and a prominent mcmb r c. Tammany was elected United Suites senator ft m New York to tacc: ed Cbauncey M. 1 ci'- c, breaking tke deadlock that had i.K*d fof month:-. The new sen ator has b-ea or.e o? Tammany's fore most orators for 30 years, having es tablished his reputation as a public speaker :n its interests when, at the age of twenty-one, his eloquence is credi'ed with having saved a doubt ful assembly district. Senator O'Gcrmar. was born on the lower West Side of New Y'ork city on May 1850. lie is the son of Ellen and Thomas O'Gorman. and married Anne M. Leal*" in New York on Jan uary 38S4. They have nine children, seven dav ghiers and two sons. At the age of seventeen. Mr. O'Gorman en tered the College of the City of New York and later attended the Universi ty of New York Law School, was grad uaicc 2DQ enterea at the bar in 18S2. In 1S9G he was elected a justice ot the municipal court and in 18&S* was elected a justice of the supreme court for a term of 14 years from January 1, lt*00. Following his election to the United States senate. Mr. O’Gorman gave cut a sta-ement in which he said he stands for immediate downward revision of the tariff: reciprocity with Uanada. the parcels post, fortification of the Panama canal, direct election of I nited States senators and the federal in come !ax He also urged rigid economy in government expenditures and is opposed to all special privileges and private monopoly; to the new national :sm and to the centralizating tendencies of the Republican party.’ ECUADOR’S NEW PRESIDENT Senor Emiiio Estrada was elected president of the Republic of Ecuador. He will be inaugurated on August 10. 1911. succeeding the present incum bent. Gen. Elroy Alfaro. The presi dent of Ecuador is elected directly for a period of four years. The vice-pres ident is elected in the same manner, but two years after the election of president, serving accordingly across two terms. The congress consists oi two houses. The members of the sen ate (two lor each province) are elected directly for four years. The house oi representatives consists of members elected directly for two years at the rate of one deputy for every 35.000 in habitants. with a deputy for every 15, 000 inhabitants or more. The Indians being practically in a condition of slavery, are unrepresented. Congress meets bi-ennially. but can be sum moned for an extra session by the president. The voting franchise is restricted to every male citizen of twenty-one rears of age who is able to read and write. The local adminis trators, from the governors of the provinces down to the lieutenants of the parishes, are all appointed by the president and removed at his discretion. DONATES LAST OF FORTUNE Three hundred thousand dollars was the ninety-first birthday gift of Dr. Daniel K. Peartor.s. the grand old man of Hinsdale. UL. to the colleges and missions he calls his children. The Chicago philanthropist is happy now 'hat he has fulfilled his determination to give away all of his fortune before death. In all be has paid what he calls "debts to the world" of approxi mately $5,000,000. All that now re mains of bis once great fortune is tbe modest residence where he lives, valued at $30,000. and this is destined to go before the owner's death. Here is the aged doctor's philosophy: I have had a lot of fun. I am not a dollar poorer for the millions I have given away. I have bad all I wanted to eat and drink and wear. I could not wisely have spent another dollar on myself. As for the money I have given away the giving has made me richer, hap pier. My colleges are my children. I love them all. There Is not a failure among them. E'er> cent 1 have given away has done good, I know. There is not * single gift 1 would take back. The best I have ever given was the $50,000 I gave to Berea college The Kentucky mountains breed men of the Lincoln type Education counts thee w , PeOP!e.J°n't reme“ber or any of us long, you know, and need not but my children, my colleges, will spread light down the centuries CONSTRUCTION OF IOWA SHEEP BARN INEXPENSIVE Feed racks Divide Lower Floor Into Four Spaces, as Shown in Illustration—Feedtrouglis Are Unique Feature -—No Danger oi Animal Being Caught. EAST SO An Iowa Sheep Bam. We built a sheep barn in 1905. It is SifxSO feet, standing north and south. The doors are all at the ends. The feedracks divide the lower floor, all of which is used for the sheep, into four spaces about twelve l'eet wide in the clear. There are doors nine feet wide at each end of each space to allow driving through with a ma nure spreader. The end section of each i'eedrack is left out so that the sheep may pass freely to any pan of the bam. writes Lee Colony of John son county. la.. In the Breeders' Ga zette. The hay is stored over the cen tral portion of the barn The haymow is 30 feet wide, leaving a space of 15 feet on each side where no hay Is stored. Hay is taken in at each end of the bam. Large gates are fastened by Uocks to the pests at the side of the mow, then, in feeding, the gates are moved a little away from the hay. which makes it possible to throw the hay directly into the racks below all along each side of the mow. The hay that is thrown down the central chute has to be carried to the ends of the feed alley. The feed racks are constructed of boards 12 inches wide placed hori zontally. The lower portion is 3 feet wide and one board high. The next board is set in 6 inches and raised up <5 or S inches to leave a space for the sheep to reach the hay. The upper part is sloped outwardly. The feed troughs are a unique feature. They are 6 inches wide and 2 inches deep inside. They are made of 1-foot boards They are not fastened rigidly to anything, but are made to raise and lower. Each trough Is TO feet cr SO feet long. Those on the hayracks are made right in the line of parts; that is. the bottom of the trough is cut out where the post goes through and the sides of the trough pass up and down on each side of the post. Then at each post a small rope is fastened to the trough, then passes over a pulley up about 6 feet on the post, then down and once around a three-quarter inch gas pipe, and then a 15-pound weight is tied to the end of the rope. The gas pipe is one straight line tight ly screwed together and placed in brackets so that it Is free to turn. There is a crank on one end of the pipe. The Iron weight balances the weight of the trough so that by turn ing the crank the trough can be raised or lowered very easily Boards 12 Inches wide are then nailed on each side of the post, leaving a space of about ten inches through which the trough can be raised and lowered. The Inner one of these boards is a part of the hayrack. These troughs have been in use for four years There is no danger of catching sheep under them and cho king them to death, but after the sheep become accustomed to being fsd in them there is practically no trou ble. HIVES FOR ALL EMERGENCIES I, Hive Cover. II. Hive Body. III. Bottom-Board. IV, Hive In Use. Generally speaking, cheap contrap tions are an abomination in the bee yard, but there are times when some thing which can be gotten up in a hurry and at a small cost will be appreciated. In preparing such hives, however, one should see to It that spacing is kept right and nothing but standard frames should be used. Then when you get around to it yon can simply transfer your frames to another hive and nothing will be lost, writes L. C. Wheeler in the Michigan Farmer The hive body can be made by sim ply nailing four boards together, leav ing the ends three-quarters inch low er than the sides Then form a rab bet by nailing on a strip three-quarter Inch wide and three-eights inch thick j on the outer edge of the end boards. nailing it on with the thin edge up The hive should be just the right depth so that when the frames are hung in the rabbesr they will hang with the bottoms Just on a level with the bottom of the hive A cheap bottom-board trey be made by nailing four strips torether. leav ing one of the ends an inch lower than the sides and the other esd. Set this on the ground and fill with j sawdust or clean sand and you have a bottom-board that will serve the purpose just as well as a more ex pensive one. A very good cover mar be made by cutting a wide board just the right length and nailing strips on each end to keep it from splitting. 1 do not advise such hives for general use. but. as I said before, as a make shift they are all right. TO RELIEVE CONGESTED CROP In Early Sorias Fowls Will Eat Too Much Dry, Indigestible Grass— CompleteCure May Be Had Quite Easily. By E. G. WEATHEKSTONX) Very frequently when chickens first roam in the spring and gather food for themselves they are likely to swal low a large amount of dry, indigesti ble grass. This remains in the chick en's crop a hard, undigested mass that Is likely to cause death. Pour a small quantity of sweet oil Into the mouth and cause the bird to swallow it, then manipulate that por tion of the crop nearest the throat by careful pressure and squeezing be tween the thumb and fore finger in such a manner as to break np the contents of the crop and force it toward the mouth in small portions. Suspend the bird, head downwards from time to time and press the loos ened particles of food toward the j head so they will escape from the mouth. With care and patience the crop may be entirely emptied in this way. if oil is administered as often as required to soften the contents. After this is accomplished give twe grains of baking soda in water, keep ing without food for a day. then feed i sparingly on soft diet until recovery j Is complete. Brooder Chicks. In moving chicks from the incubatoi | to the brooder, great care is always exercised to prevent their getting | chilled, says a writer in an exchange The brooder is started 48 hours be ; Jpre the chicks are placed in it and the chicks are kept closely confined for three or four days until they learn j to run under ti e cover when cold. By these means. I have been very success | ful in raising my Rose Comb Brown Leghorn and Barred Plymouth Rock ; fowls. Authorities do not all agree wheth er a chickens should be allowed to ! »«ch early in life or be compelled to | squat on the ground. IMPORTANT THAT PUBLIC SHOULD KNOW ABOUT UREAT KIDNEY REMEDY The testimonial I am to give you comes | unsolicited. I have been suffering from ! lumbago for ten years and at times was unable to stand erect. A Mr. Dean of this city, saw me in my condition (bent over) and inquired the cause. I told him that I ; had the lumbago, lie replied, "if you get , what 1 tell jxu to, you need not have it.” I said I would take anything for ease. Ho . said, "You get two bottles cf Dr. Kil mer's Swamp-Root and take it, and if it does not tut you O. K. I will pay for the medicine myself.'* I did so and am a well : man. For hve months I have been as well | as could be. Before I took your Swatnp Koot was in constant pain day and night. | This may lock like advertising, but it ; seems to me most important that the public should lie made familiar with this treatment as it is the only one I know which is an absolute cure. I owe a great deal to Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot, and am anxious that others situated as I was should know and take advantage of it. Hoping that this testimonial may be of bene:.: to some one, 1 am J.

The famous Temple of Liberty, one of Ulster's best-known landmarks, was burned to the ground the other morn ing. Erected at Tcjmebridge, on the County Londonderry side of the River Bann, by the late Rev. John Carey, some SO years ago. it had a romantic history. Its founder was a remark able man. possessed cf considerable wealth. He was a descendant of a Cromwellian family, ana had been ar rested and tried for murder, but was unanimously acquitted by the jury, whereupon he erected the building in question.—London Mail. Willing to Make an Effort. On a large estate in the Scottish highlands it was the custom for a piper to play in front of the house every weekday morning to awaken the residents. After an overconviv ial Saturday night, however, the piper forgot the day and began his reveille (can it be played on the pipes?) on Sunday morning. The angry master shouted to him from the bedroom win dow: "Here, do you not know the fourth commandment?” And the piper sturdily replied: "Mae. sir, but if ye'll —his—whustle it I'll—hie—try it. sir.” -1_ Care of the Child. It is announced that Los Angeles county government will in future ex pend as much money upon societies for the care of children as it does now upon societies that look after the welfare of animals. This is well. Perhaps, in course of time, we may com# to regard chil dren as of equal importance with horses and dogs. There is nothing so easy but that It becomes difficult when you do it with reluctance.—Terence. DAME NATURE HINTS When the Food Is Not Suited. When Nature gives her signal that something is wrong It is generally with the food; the old Dame is always faithful and one should act at once To put off the change is to risk that which may be irreparable. An Ari zona man says: "For years I could not safely eat any breakfast. I tried all kinds of breakfast foods, but they were all soft, starchy messes, which gave me distressing headaches. I drank strong coffee, too, which appeared to benefit me at the time, but added to the head aches afterwards. Toast and coffee were no better, for I found the toast very constipating. "A friend persuaded me to quit cof fee and the starchy breakfast foods, and use Postum and Grape-Nuts in stead. I shall never regret taking his advice. "The change they have worked In me is wonderful. I now have no more erf the distressing sensations in my stomach after eating, and I never have an~ headaches. I have gained 12 pounds in weight and feel better in every way. Grape-Nuts make a de licious as well as a nutritious dish, and I find that Postum is easily di gested and never produces dyspepsia symptoms.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
