Thwarted Ambitions the Greatest
Incentive to These ,li,wful
Deeds.
Apert from murders by mere lune,
tics, the well remembered orimo of
tWQ years ego on the ,Sciuth-Western
Railway, o. England, was ono of the
most purposeless on !'ecoid. The
man who shot Mr, Peet'son couid
at 'cost have hoped to get ten
pounds, by his Horrible deed. Con-
sidering also that there was a Wit
, -
'wee in the same compartment In
the shape el Mrs. Xing, ho must
have known that lie must either hili
her else or resign all hops of es-
caping, As a matterof fact,he did
shoot her, too,, and it was the
merest happy ohanco that sbo did
not share tl a fats of Mr. Pearson,.
Far more terribly cold-blooded
were - the crimes of that ruonstoi'
Abel Meson, the Yorkshire farmer,
who destroyed bis whole family be-
causo he wished to inarry again.
Mason heti been married twice, and
was
LEFT A WIDOWER,
with five children—all boys—at the
age of forty-two. It is said that be-
fore his second wife bad been in her
grave three months Mason proposed
to the daughter of a neighboring
farmer, who refused him, and that
only six weeks later he asked an-
other young woman to marry him.
It could hardly, therefore, have been
love that induced him to enter on
his series of horrible crimes. The
third object of bis affections was a
young widow; but she refused him
on the ground that she could not
be bothered .with a lot of children.
Very soon afterwards one of Mason's
boys died; within another month
a mond. fell ill, and followed his
brother. Before two years wero
over all five boys were dead, Then
Mason went to the widow and ask-
ed her again to be his wife. But
her suspicions were aroused, and she
communicated with the authorities.
Mason was arrested, and the bodies
exhumed. As was suspected, traces
of poison—arsenic—were found in
each case, and the inhuman father
stet the fate he so richly deserved.
Pride seems a carious motive to
drive a man to murder another—es-
pecially when the other is his
friend. But the mind of a Spaniard
is not constituted like that of
AN AVERAGE ENGLISHMAN.
Some years ago a young Englishman
named Stephens went, to stay with
a Spaniard named Espinosa, whose.
home was in Catalonia. Stephens
Mid met Espinosa before in London,
and the two had become friendly.
When Stephens went to Spain
Tspinosa was almost at the end of
his tether. Ile was In debt, and on
the verge of selling his home. Ste-
phene, who was very well off, fell in
love with Espinosa's sister, and the
two became engaged. One day Ste-'
phens received a remittance of
£500 from home. Knowing how
hard up his host was, he offered to
lend him the money. But the latter
refused it. Ile was too proud to ac-
cept a loan from his sister's lover.
However, when night came he re-
solved to steal the money. Stephens
awoke to find a burglar in his room
and, in the struggle, found it was
his host, whereupon Espinosa stab-
bed and killed him. At his trial
Espinosa confessed tete whole busi-
ness; and, curiously enough, it did
not seem to strike his Judges as odd
that he had attempted to rob a
guest rather than borrow
MONEY WILLINGLY OFFERED.
• Ono November morning in 1887 the
calcined remains of a human body
were found in a lime -kiln in North
Derbyshire. The identity of the de-
ceased was a mystery for a long
time afterwards, until two men,
named. Wheeler and Deney, were ar-
rested for a murderous aseault near
Buxton. Wheeler became ill in ;ris-
en, and before he died confessed
that it was he and Deney who had
killed the man whose, remains had
been found in the kiln. The three'
of thein had been playing cards to-
gether, and this third mast, whose.
name was Pope, had won one-and-
sevenpence. It was to regain this
sum that the others had brutally
murdered him.
Yet even this does not equal the
proceedings of a Roman innkeeper
named Varo, w:10, with three ac-
complices, has just been sentenced to
life-long imprisonment for murder.
Two peasants came to his inn; and.
stole two glasses value each. The
innkeeper and his friends followed 1
the thieves, and, when they caught
them, literally slashed them to
pieces with their knives. A point
worth remarkingabout this h i
t s erinie
is that all four of the murderers
were members of the "Anti -Knife
League.
Burke and Hare, and others of
the body -snatching fraternity, were
not 'satisfied with digging up the
bodies of the dead for the purpose
of selling them to anatomists—they
actually committed ninny murders
for thecomparatively trifling sum
which they
RECEIVED FOR THE CORPSES.
One imagines horrible crimes of this
sort to bo things of the far past,
yet, for reasonless atrocity, the re-
cent doings of an Italian doctor
named Vinci aro far more terrible.
Vine., it appears, had an argument
with. a friend as to the effect of
fright on a human being, asserting'
that mere fright would produce all
the symptoms of a disease. )3y way
of proving this, he and his son
went out into the streets of Naples
and kidnapped an unfortunate fruit -
seller, after drugging •him until he
was insensible. ?laving got the man
into his house, Vinci told him that
he was to be shut up for a week in
a, room in which'a man had died the
clay before of plague, In spite of
the wretched victim's .despairing
struggles, Ile was jacked 'up. Within
twelve hours ho was dead of fright
and collapse. Vinci and his son
tried to got the body awayat night
but woes caught, and are how suffer-
ing the penalty—life lmpriscninOrlt--

THE FARifIERS' INSTITUTE
THEIR GROWING POPULARITY
IN THE DOMINION.
Sketch of the Work Which Has
Been Accomplished in Prince
Edward Island.
In view of the great success of the
Farmers' Institute as a means of
Education in Ontario, the Dominion
deavored to co-operate with the ver
taus local departments in establish-
ing and. improving similar systems'
in their respectiv'o provinces , rain-
ed speakers have been sent to assist!
in the work in other provinces, and 1
the best available nice in these pro -I
vines have been pressed into ser-
vice, not only in their own province.,
but in others as well. By sending
able and observant men from one
province to another in this wily we
hope to get together a thoroughly;
capable corps of institute workers,!
1nmi11ar with the agricultural situ-
ation and requirements in all parts
of Canada.
Prof. E. J. McMillan, of, Clear -1
lottetown, P. E. 1., Superintendent'
of farmers' Institutes, etc., leas pre-
pared a sketch of the work already
accomplished in Prince Edward Is-
land, which may be of interest and
benefit to those interested in agricul-
tural education in other province=..
According to Prof. McMillan:
"The organization of Farmers' In-
stitutes in Prince Edward Island was
first undertaken in June, 1901. At
that time the Ilon. BcnJamin Rog-
ers Oominissioner of AgriculLuro,
assisted by the writer and two ex-
perienced Institute workers supplied
by the Department of Agriculture at
Ottawa, held meetings of fanners in
different sections of the province, for
the purpose of discussing the advan-
tages of the Institute system. As
a result of these meetings the or-
ganization of twenty Institutes was
completed
BEFORE T'FT76 END OF TILE
YEAR.
The Farmers' Institute system of
Prince Edward Island is two -fold in
its alms. It seeks to combine the
educational features of the Ontario
system' with the facilities for deal-
ing in live stock afforded by the old
Agricultural Societies' plan, Each
organization is a Farmers' Institute
and Agricultural Society combined.
' A Government grant of 450 is paid
annually to each society, which has
itt least 50 members enrolled, and
collects $40 per year in membership
fees. 11. suns - amounting to $7.,000
was expended in this way last year.
The total membership up to Decem-
ber 31st, 1907, was 1,624. and the
amount subscribed in fees was
5011.50. T110 recclpts of the Insti-
tutes from all sources cunnunted to
nearly $2,000. This stoney was ex -
Fended in the purchase of pure-bred
stock and in defraying the expenses
of lecturers, Thirty-three meetings,
chiefly for the purpose of organiza-
tion were Held during 1110 first year.
At the beginning of the first year a
regular series of Institute meetings
was arranged and carried out sue
cessful)y. Several speakers were
employed and various agricultural
topics were brought eip for discus-
sion, chief among which were, (lair;y-
ing, hog raising mid ebielten fatten-
ing.
attening. As all of these are live indus-
tries at present, the interest mani-
fested in the meetings was great.
The attendance throughout was
good, fully 2,000 people being
brought in contact with the lectur-
ers, who were not slow to tape acl-
vant.a.go of every opportunity to )in -
part lessons of practical value. Al-
ready the influence of this nubile dis-
cussion of agricultural questions is
shown in aul increased interest in ev-
or;ythieg which makes for the ad-
vancement of the ceiling. The. de-
mand for pure-bred stock for breed-
ing purposes, which has more than
doubled during the past year, may
be cited as one instance of a benefit
already derived from the Institutes.
It.lnay also be shown that an
ad-
vancement has taken,Place alongg
other' lines, The people realize tilts
and aro anxious that more educe,
tionel meetings should be held,"
During the month of July a ser
fes of midesumrael' heet,ures were
given before the Institutes by Prof.
II, I1, Dean end 1,1', D. Drulnanond,

the third quality, No. 8. or X; but
the stied marls may be aceompalnied
by any other designation of grade,
provider., that designation is not in-
consistent with,• or marked more
conspicuously than the one of the
snid six marks which is used on the
said package.

tion.

Explanations of its application'
may be taken thus: On packages
packed n1' intuited contrary to the
provisions of the Act, Inspectors
may, after notifying the packer by
letter or telegram, place the words
"fnlsely packed" or "falsely mark-
ed:" and a fine of $40 may he inn

THE INSPECTOR'S BRAND.
It will be noticed that only "clos-
ed packages" need be marked: A
closed pricka''6o is defined to be a
box 01' barrel, the .contents of which
cannot be seen or inspected when
such is dosed, Baskets, berry
crates, or berry boxes even, with
veneer covers, are not considered
"closed packages," and therefore do
not require marking, Cranberries
and elle wild fruit are not subject
to the provisions of the Aol.
Merchants aro hold responsible for
the fruit they otTer for sale (or fruit
in their possession for sale), but th1e.
original wrongdoer, if found, will in
every case be prosecuted.
The penalty for a violation of the
law with reference to peeking and
marking is not less than twenty -live
cents and not more than one dollar
per package; for removing an in -
spotter's bland, forty dollars; for
obstructing an inspector,, $25 to
$500. Tito fines are divided equally
between the informant and, the
grown.
Inspectors ere given large powers
under the Act, to enter promisee for
the 'purpose of making an examine -
tion and to detain -shipments of fruit

'however, is amply protected by the

Already the benofieial e,ftect of
this Act is being felt; and when it
is fully known that dishonesty in
Packing and describipg Caned ian
Trull does not; exist, 1111 enormous
impetus will be given to our fruit
industry in all the markets of the
world. At present inquiries are be-
ing made concerning the trans -Ate
Male shipments of early Canadian
apples. Tile Department of Agricul-
ture will not take tiny responsibil-
ity; but through the Commissioner
of Agriculture and Dairying will as-
sist, in securing cool: or cold storage

formation be given as to the prob-
able quantity, the date of ehipnnont,

It. will pay to send only selected
apples of choice individual quality,
and packed in boxes rather than in
barrels. It will be necessary to
have the applespicked and packed
on 111e green o1' farm side, so that
they may be delivered in the United
Kingdom in such a state that they
may be handled with a very small
percentage of bruised or decayed ones

BURN WOOD LO KEEP IT.
Best Manner to Preserve; Its Dur-
•
ability.
In spite of the substitution of
iron and , steel for wood in house
aicd bridge building, and in the con-
struction of ships, piers, and other
structures, the consumption of wood
inq'eases: yearly, A11 wood decays,.
and its value depends chiefly upon
Its durability.
The simplest method of preserving
is charring. Every old farmer
knows ,that if he burns the end of a
post in the fire until it is covered
with a thin coat of charcoal it will
last from ten to thirty years longer
when set in the ground .tha.n if put
there in its normal Gonidition.
Next to this are the paints, whish
do excellent work in cold and tem-
perate climates. A piece of wood
Painted every two or thvee years
kill lastcenturies; but this does not
apply to wood employed im ships 01'
in the piles of wharves and, bridges.
Marine animals bore through the
paint, and attack the wood beneath
it..
When you reach the tropics, paint
is almost worthless so fan.' as pre-
venting the attacks ofwhite ants is
concerned. They bore a hole
through the paint, go into the in-
terior of the log oe lumber, and eat
out all the tissue without disturb-
ing the paint skin on tb0 outside.
The only process which seems abso-
lutely efficient is to charge the wood.
