"Curley," the alleged desperado who was warned to leave Durkee by a vigilance committee of J 3, won't go. To make matters worse he not only remains In Baker county, but walks untcrrified through' the streets of Durkee, and since the memorable night when he was sought out by the committee and warned to leave, he has one by one sought out the mem bers of the peaceful band, and given them Individually, many good, round "cusslngs." Yesterday at Durkee he tried that plnn on Sid Storey. Storey was a member of the committee and he wouldn't listen to abuse from the marked man. He started In to thrash' him. But the vigilante missed his first blow, and Its force was so great that he fell forward upon his face. It was "Curley's" cue to get busy and for 15 minutes there was a battle royal like that, say the onlookers, of two old women. Then the olive branch and truce! the two fagged gladiators, dusty, bruised and bleeding; a few more curses and a warning to the bad man to leave Durkee. Then peace. But Curley heeds not even the sec ond warning. "They didn't run mc. Into this country," he declares, "and as long as I hnven't done anything they can't run me out." The vigilantes have another sny.

Biblical stu dents throughout the world ore In terested In a report mnde to Pope PJus X by a pontiflcnl Biblical com mission, appointed to Investigate whether the books of the Pentateuch, written by Moses, were Inspired, or merely the result of human ' effort.

'j Sale MUSTARD SCIENTIFIC WORK DONE ON A WISCONSIN FARM. Conducted by Prof. Moore of the Suae Experimental Station Used an Air Pump Charged With CherroV cnls Mixture Will Kill Certain Weeds, But Not Cereals Prance nnd Germany Have Long Conducted Similar Kxpcrlmcnta. A Wisconsin farm has Just been the scene of an experiment to kill a thrifty growth of muslnrd fcrtme of which was well matured. The experiment was conducted by the agricultural depart ment of t'.v; state university. A solu tion of lrn i 2u j, r cm'., v iter 80 per cent by weight, was used. This was spread over the surface of the field by an atomizing machine imported from Germany and drawn by one horse. The experiment was tinder the direction of Professor" R. A. Moore, who has charge of the experimental work of the agricultural college. As this was the second experiment of the kind ever made In Wisconsin, Professor Moore was particular to observe every conceived detail, hence the preparation of the solution, the pressure which an air pump operated by the axle of the machine exerted on the solution in the tank, the de gree of moisture distributed to the mustard plants and the speed of the horse were factors which he observ ed. 1 He did this methodically and con formable to scientific knowledge which he acquired during about 10 years previous to 1903 as principal In the two years' agricultural course of the University of Wisconsin and three years since as specialist In agronomy, a new department of the agricultural course, 1 To farmers who questioned him re garding the probable effectiveness of the treatment to destroy mustard, Canada thistle, etc., Mr. Moore gave assurance that It would. That about three treatments should be made each year for three years. That treat ments should be made before plants were mature. That he did not know why the solution would km mustard and other plants and not cereals. That the governments of Germany and France hnve carried on a system of experiments since 1888 to exterminate mustard which became very prevalent in rural districts to the detriment of cereal crops, with good results. That in those countries sulphate of copper, which costs 20 times more than sul phate of Iron as produced by an American process. Is used. That In nddltion to killing mustard the solu tion of sulphate of Iron stimulates the cereals and fertilizes the soil. That the solution will also kill yellow dock and Canada thistle.
