Defend Orchard.
Hawley devoted considerable tlma to
th defense of Orchard as a wltnesn.
He said careful Investigation proved his
story waa absolutely true, and that he
told the entire truth and nothing eUe,
without fear and utterly without hope of
reward.
"Orchard haa no further hope for the
future than he has pride In his past,"
continued Hawley. "His conscience
made it necessary for hlra to tell what

aione, doing exact Justice to Haywood
and others. That fact is absolutely

Mineral Wealth of Illinois.
From the Cartervilie Herald.
Illinois has neither sliver nor gold,
yet In the year 1905 the actual value of
Illinois' mineral products was far great
er than that of either California or Colo
rado. This discovery has been made by
the United Btatea geological survey,
which has Just compiled its statistics
for the year 1905.
These figures collected show that the
Illinois Output was double that of Cali
fornia's In value. While Illinois has
neither of the precious metals above
mentioned. It produces vast quantities
of cement, clay, coal, pic Iron, stone,
lead and zinc, which are worth much
silver and gold In the world's markets.
The sum total of the output of Illinois
was $105,065,667. of California 143,406,

Sheep Graze In Independence Square
From the Philadelphia Record.
The historic ground of Independence
Square was for a short time yesterday
turned into a grazing ground for sheep.
A herd of wool producers which was
shortly to be slaughtered to provide the
hungry with roasts and chops gambolled
gayly on the greensward and enjoyed
themselves Immensely. Business men
hurrying through the square stopped to
iook ai mem, wonaering ai tne unusual
spectacle.
The explanation was simple. The
herd was being driven from the abattoir
at Thirtieth and Race streets to th
ferry, to be distributed to dealers in
Camden. They clattered down Chestnut
street until spied by a woman officer
of th Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals. Touched bv the evi
dences of fatigue that the animals plain
ly snowed ene oegged the drivers to
allow her to tend to them for a time.
Then she applied to Samuel 8. Reeves,
superintendent of the sauare. for Der-
ralsslon to allow them to graze there for
a while. He consented, and for half
an hour the sheep thoroughly enjoyed
themselves and presented a picture
worthy to be made the subject of an
artist's masterpiece.
