America is becoming yearly more of a sheep raising and mutton eating country, writes the Washington correspondent of the Chicago Tribune. This Is due primarily to (he initiative of the department of agriculture, which for the last ten years has been hammering at the farmer to raise sheep Instead of exporting his surplus grain, and which has helped him in every way to this end.

One result is that there were reported on tho first of this year over 45,000,00 sheep on the farms and ranches of the United States, valued at as against less than 38,000,000 in The receipts at the Chicago stock yards are reaching upward every year since 1S4, when the yards took over a million more mutton sheep than in the previous year. The department is anxious to Impress on the farmer the value of sheep as one of his farm products, and It points out that, while the sale of $1,000 worth of corn takes from the soil J300 worth of fertility, the farmer would have to spend that much ia fertilizers to recoup the land. The same amount of corn converted Into good mutton and sold at a higher prlee than the corn would fetch takes in the end from the land not over $50 worth of fertility, and If the flock was kept for wool alone it would not reduce the value of the land more than $3 or $4. There is particular Interest attaching to the sheen raising pfoblem Just now, because tho price of mutton Is going up by leaps, not only in the stores where the consumer has to buy It, for every one reallzec this, but In Chicago, where lambs recently have touched the unprecedented figure of $8 per hundredweight, and now are selling at about $7.25. During the early days in America sheep were bred primarily for the wool and during recent years we have been Importing annu-I ally, in addition, from $25,000,000 to 0D0 worth of wool.

But the wool industry in this country has come to the point where It frequently does not pay to raise the eheep for the lleece alone. There has, therefore, bson nn Increasing effort to get a good combination breed that would live In large flocks on the range, furnish a good fleece and at the li-nme time be a good mutton sheep. The farmers of the East still are confining themselves to the English breeds of downs and shires, which are great meat producers, while the Western ranches depend largely on the old Mexican sheep, which Is a descendant of the fin merinos imported by the Spaniards, but which has been affected by environment till il has developed characteristics of its own and Is in a great many respects an ideal eheep for the range. The fleece of the Mexican Is made finer and Improved by the introduction of pure merino rams on the range, and when the strain of merino begins to show too much, making a weaker aud more delicate sheep, with fine, silky wool, the breed Is strengthened by the introduction of some coarser wool sheep, like the Oxfords. So the balance Is maintained.

The department has convinced the farmer of the value of sheep as one of his farm products, but It is continuing its educational work and is anxious to IrapresB the farmer with the fact that we still Import over half a million dollars annually of Canadian mutton In spile of the heavy tariff against It. The great work that the department Is striving for now Is the eradication of sheep scab, which costs the country hundreds of thousands of dollars annually. The department commenced a crusade in this direction several years ago. I'p to the present moment, there are two states entirely cleared of scab and with the right to quarantine against the rest of the world RUd. ns soon as the national government is allowed to go inio the remaining states and territories the wholo country will be cleared out and the disease, which Is the greatest foe the sheep man has to encounter, will he completely eradicated.

A good many non-farmers may not know-Just what sheep scab is, and for their benefit it tnav be well to say that It Is simply a sheep' parasite that gets under the skin and caui es the wool to fall, completely ruin. ins; the fleece and eventually weakening the Uheep till I. dies. The disease Is acutely contagious and till a few years ago had spread all over the I'liltcd States without a check being found for It. Now.

thanks to the department's work, it is known to be comparatively easily cured, the sheep bolus simply dipped in a solution that Kills the parasite. Either tobacco nnd sulphur or lime and sulphur are used for thin, though there are a hundred different "cures" now on the market. HOW ESIDGE CAME TO LONDON One afternoon the customnry rubber of whist was being played at the Portland Club, which has long been the recognized head-nuariers of scientific card games. Among the players was Lord Brougham, who had recently returned from the south of Europe. When It came lo his turn to deal he omitted to turn up the l.i' or trump card, plae- lnp It downward on his own pack, and I claimed a misdeal In acccrd mice wlin me laws oi mo He apologized lo his partner, saying "I am very sorry, but 1 forgot that I was not playing bridge."

Arthur E. Appleyard's Extradition From Massachusetts Delayed as Result Now Out on Bail. Boston, April 22 Chief Justice Marcus P. Knowllon, of the Massachusetts Supreme Court, has Issued a writ of error in the eac of Arthur E. Appleyard, of Brooklyn, who is held In Charles street Jail for the authorities of Buffalo, N.

In connection with a charge of grand larceny from the German Bank of Buffalo. The writ was granted on application of counsel for Appleyard, who contended that the judgment of the Stale Supreme Court announced through Judge Morion, denying a writ of habeas corpus and holding that, the action of Governor Douglas in granting extradition to New York was final, was in error and that Appleyard's detention in custody of slate officers at Charles street jail Is Illegal. The Issupncn of the writ of error removed the case from the slate courts and makes possible an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United Slates, If Justice Lowell, of the United States Circuit Court, who is hearing habeas corpus arguments to day, shall refuse to liberate the petitioner. After the Circuit hearing to-day Judge Lowell discharged a writ of habeas corpus which he had Issued temporarily to establish jurisdiction in the case. An appeal was promptly taken from the discharge order to the United States Supreme Court and Judge Lowell admitted Appleyard to ball of $15,000.

This latter action will give Appleyard his liberty until final action on the question of 1 abeas corpus by the United States Supreme Court, which may not be taken for somo months.

MONKEY SWALLOWED DIAMONDS An Incident of the Closing Night of the Circus in Madison Square Garden. Mrs. J. D. Barton, of 1G9 North Fulton elr-'ct, Ml.

Vernon, went to the circus in Madison Square Garden, last evening, with Mr. Hartcn and a party or friends, and this morning she Is sorry that she did, for she lost there a diamond breast pin, which Bhe values at $Sli0. It all happened because of Mrs. Barton's fondness for the nionUcys and had she not Fpein part of the time feeding the simian, the would not now mourn tbe lot-s of her Jewels. In one sense of the word the pin is not ln.it, for Mrs.

Barton has an inkling as to iis whereabouts, yet Its recovery is a question which may involvo her and the cir-ins in all sorts of legal ntaiigleir.eniB. Mis. T.arton. her husband, und some friends, wire standing in trout of the monkey cafe last tti. A pint of peanuts "i who stretched oul their huiry ui-tnts for the tidbits and chatterod their thanks In chorus.

In the corner sat a bte fellow who seemed ill, mid the sympathy of tho woman was tirouted. "Poor Jocko," she said, "does he want a pianul?" extending at the same time one with three kernels to the object of her In-tercsl. Jocko evidently had no mind for peanuts, for he ignored I he oilcring. His arm shot out. however, nnd he seized upon the pin which as at inched to Mrs.

Barton's collar. "Tin robbed! lolleo! Thieves!" cried the woman. "Where? How?" asked Mr. Hnrlon, who had not seen the theft. "Oh, my pin! my pin! He stolv It!" The Idea thut there was a thief in the crowd sot the people In a ferment of nnx-I iely and each viewed his neighbor with sus- plcto'i.

"Who? Where Is he?" cried several In chorus. "Tiler in the cage!" cried the woman. him? Oh, he's eating it!" The monkey, not satisfied with his dazr.litiK prise, had placed ll-e pin In his mouth ami Ihe twisting or bin head nnd neck told that the Idl of Jewelry had gone down. The circus people were uoponlod lo. Mrs.

Barton pointed ou I the miscreant monkey. The circus folk refused lo chloroform Ihe litilnial nor would they pay lite vuluo of the Pin. The police were finally appealed lo and detectives placed on the civse, to endeavor lo locate The gem. Then with a heavy heart Mrs. Barton went home to await developments.

LONG BLOCK ON BROADWAY. Two Four-Ton ou One Eailroad Track nnd nn Overturned Truck in the Other. About fi o'clock lust evening big double truck, on which there were Iwn 4-loit sates, came slowly up Broadway, Manhattan. At Thirty Elephants, Twenty-four Camels and Other Beasts Innumerable. NOT MANY WATCHERS AT 1 A.

M. Not Much Eest for the Showmen Eefore 6 o'Clock Job, as Usual, a Difficult One. At 6:30 o'clock this morning probably all Is quiet under the big white canvas tents at SaratoRh avenuo and Ilalsey street. A spirit of Sabbath silence possibly has fallen an men and beasts. The big circus, after a most strenuous night, is maybe sleeping and getting ready for the coming week of wonder working In Brooklyn.

From 12:30 o'clock last night the big and aBiiey show was in transit from Madison Square Garden where it closed with last nigiit's performance, and the Brooklyn circus fcrounds where It will open lo-mor-row. The circus came over by way of tbe Mile Mauiicia de Tier3, Who Loops the (tap in An Automobile Jtarnum and Bailey Show. Williamsburg Bridge. The tents had already been pitched in Brooklyn, but tbe circus proper did not start its big caravan of men, animals and wagons until nearly 1 o'clock. The trip was made without accident and without unusual incident, speaking in the Tody Hamlltonlan sense.

Of course, there are always Incidents which would excite wonder and admiration where the circus is whether it is moving or standing still. All of those things which In other years have filled columns in the newspapers, the bellowing fthe elephants, the balking of tho camels, "tho bloomin' aunts" as Kipling calls him, the rouring and raging of lions, tigers, hyenas and panthers these and a hundred other things happened while the clrcUB was on the way to Brooklyn. But Brooklyn was asleep at the time, and there were uo spectators on the Williamsburg Bridge to witness the baby elephant's attempt at suicide, and to see old the oldest memoir ef the herd, to the rescue of the melancholy little ''Bow-wow." "Little" is used lq the elephantine sense as Bow-wow is as large as the average hippopotamus, and really not an object of commiseration. To tell tho exact trulh in regard to the moving. Tody llomilton and the other members of the press bureau were "all in" alter the arduous season in Madison Square Garden, and alter the final thriller about the narrow escape of the dip of death lady which wa3 given out In pretty good shape last night, the usually fertilo imagination of the bureau failed to work.

The moving to Brooklyn didn't stimulate the Imagimu ion at all and the best the versatile Tody could tay was: "Give us a rest over Sunday. There'll bo plenty of things happening next week when we get going over there." The leader of the troop of thirty elephants which headed the procession stuck his long trunk out through the back door of the Garden at exactly ten minutes of one o'clock last night and Bounded the advance. The courso followed by the troop was down fourth nventip to Broome street to the Williamsburg Bridge and out Broadway to the Hnlsey street grounds. After the elephants, came the twenty-four camels and dromedaries, some with one hump and some with two. Thrn came the sacred animals of Asia, zebras and the like.

One of the press men made a rather feeble rally over these meek- looking beasts. He said: "As a rule they won't go a step on Sunday. It's against their principles, you know. But they hold a conference to-day and decided that as they were going from city of vice and wickedness to the city of churches and religion, they would make an exception hit-, time." After Ihein came the long line of big red wepotv? hearing nil manner of wild beasts, ferocious animals from tbe nethermost parts of the earth, which for some strange reason men. women and children like lo look at.

Last of all came the wagons with tho paraphernalia and the workmen. It was expected to take the big show from 1 o'clock until nearly ti o'clock in the morning to make the trip, but when (he last wagon had arrived at the nrnoklyn grounds and the pairs of nte.i:n!rg horses had been unhitched and rr, red lor it look the circus about two minutes lo go Into a sound sleep, which will continue through tho day. Interrupted only by culls to dinner aiid supper. The management of the "greatest show" announces that It will this season abandon the pantile nnd relegate it to the "things passe" of the circus. The tremendous expense that is incurred by the transportation of so great an enterprise In ci.n-ying the paraphernalia of Hie show Useif has handicapped this show lo such an extent that It has been fully dechud to withdraw the old-time eyesore piratic place all eitnrts.

Yet Car Wai Heavily Loaded With PaBsengeti When Little Corneliui Frnncen Wa Crushed. t.lttle Cornelim Frncn, a bright 111 fellow of 3 yean, hil playing In front of his home yesterday evening whs run over land Instantly klllel by rrodrd trolley car of the VernoD avenue line, In Fla'butb.

It rutin but teven blocks along Tllden avenue, which wa formerly ril1 led Wroon avenue, and but one cr, a "lluffnlo," In railroad parlance, ia operated on It. IjBt evening the car. No. 7s8, In charge of Motorman Connaughton, 50 old. of Cla.isun avenue, and Conductor Anurrw Tilley, of lf.S Tllden avenue, l-Maibiihh.

had narted on Its last trip to the cemetery, 6:30 Ovioek, and was crowd, with were on their way lo U'corate the grav-t of their dead at Easter time. The ear 3 rolling along at a fast gait. At East Thirty-fourth street, just about half the distance of the entire route, little Cornelius, with a number of companions about his own age, were engaged in play. Tho youngsters were so Interested their amusement that they seemed to be oblivious to all else. Suddenly, when the car was but a few feet away, the little fellows darted across the track with little Cornelius at their heels.

None of them seemed to rcl-ize tho approach of the trolley until the Francen boy was about to erosi. Me saw the car coming and in his haste to cleir the track, stumbled and fell. The motorman, when he saw the youngsters dart across tho tracks, quickly put on the brakes, but the momentum of the ear was too great and while little Cornelius fell, the car was upon him. The fender Dsed over his body and the wheels also, the latter severing and badly mangling It. Seated on the stoop of his home, at 17" Til-den avenue, in front of which the little fel-low had been playing, and In front of which, also, he came to bis death, were his father and mother.

They were horror-stricken witnesses to the death of their little son and became almost frantic with grief over his death. A hasty call for an ambulance brought Dr. Parker of the Kings County Hospital, but all he could do was to pronounce that death had been Instantaneous. The motorman of the car was placed under arrest and taken to the Sixty-sevenih Precinct Station, from which he later was balled out by the railroad company. He will be arraigned before Magistrate Steers in the Flatbush police court to- day.

James Francen, the father of tho unfortunate little fellow, was very thoughtful in spite of his grief and spared the motorman whose car had killed his son much pain, not accusing him of carelessness. Mr. Francen was formerly employed by the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, as a conductor on the Nostrand avenue line and later In the same capacity on the Vernon avenue line, whereon his little son was killed. His experience has taught him the feelings of railroad men under such circumstances. He has given up that work now, however, and is employed In the Flatbush Gas Company.

Motorman Connaughton Is said to be heartbroken over the accident, as It later developed that the child was a faTorite with him, and that he was accustomed to give him rides on the car whenever he met him. No fares were ever collected on this car. and the little fellows used to take great delight in riding up and down In it. The motorman Is said to be one of the oldest railroad men In the city, having been employed 'n that work since 1870. He Is said to be the pioneer motorman In the employ of the B.

Horse cars ran to the park up Ninth street and other horse cars ran to Greenwood Cemetery. There no elevated railroad. Vacant lots were all around. The city has grown out, and the McCormick store has grown to meet the demands. To-day the millinery and shoe departments are equal to those of any other store In town.

The women are aware of that fact, as well as of the further fact that every department In the store Is repte with whatever is up to date. CAN'T SHAKE IT. Towne What makes you look so blue this morning? Browne Oh. I'm not blue! That's only a left-over expression. I sat through Detroit Free Prese.
