FAMOUS EATING PLACE IS CLOSED Shanghai Mourns Passing of “Jimmy’s Kitchen.” Shanghai.—Shanghai’s midnight sons and daughters, devotees of the cabaret and dance halls, are mourning the passing of the city's most famous night life institution, “Jimmy’s Kitch en There was no pomp or ceremony, no orchestral din or garish display about “Jimmy's” It was just a roughly equipped restaurant in the heart of a district where Magdalenes of many nationalities are quartered. . ¢ “Jimmy’s” was owned by one Joseph James, a young American who served in the American army and was sta tioned at Tientsin. Fame came to “Jimmy’s” - almost overnight. Three years ago the place was virtu ally unknown, save to a few soldiers and sailors. One night a prominent American, attracted by a sign reading “American ham and eggs,” dined at “Jimmy’s,” He was astounded at the excellence of food and coffee. Proudly young James informed him that practically all of his food was im ported from America. The word spread quickly. Americans and Britons in large numbers flocked to the place. Within a short time it became the fashionable gathering place of Shang hai in the small hours of the morning. The customers made many suggestions to James, but the latter would not change his equipment. He stuck to the rough board tables, the thick mugs and the thicker glasses. He steadfast ly refused to supply other than paper napkins. " “Jimmy’s” sold no llquor and none was permitted on the premises. A ‘husky “bouncer” was constantly on duty to stop fights between seafaring men who patronized the place. And night after night it was a com mon sight tc see sailors in and out of uniforms, soldiers, marines, mer chant marine sailors, beachcombers, dancing girls, clerks, Chinese, and men and women in evening clothes seated at the tables in “Jimmy’s.” The once familiar sign “Jimmy’s Kitchen,”. is gone now. The owner has gone into the cabaret business and has disposed of the famous restaurant. New “Engine Trouble” Is Blamed on Stork Anchorage, Alaska.—Something new in the way of an *“alibi” to explain the lateness of a scheduled train comes from the operating department of the Kugorok railroad, out of Nome, In connection with the oflicial re port, it should be explained that the Kugorok railway system is the only one known which relies on dogs for motive power. - In this instance a distemper epi demic all but wiped out the “engines” on No. 1, the fast mail, leaving only a vixen. to put: through the mail to the north. On arrival at the terminal the “engine” was visited by the stork. necessitating substitution of a new and untrained lead dog. All went well until the half-way point where trains No, 1 and No. 2 pass at a siding. Here the new lead slipped his leash and gave chase to a rabbit, causing a delay of several hours. As a climagx, the reserves in the dog house got into a fight and chewed each other so badiy that an entire new complement was necessary. This was the hard luck story related to the superintendent by the head engineer when called to the carpet to tell why the train was many hours late. Old Seafarer’s Relics Given to Yale Museum New Haven, Conn.—Logbooks and paintings of craft which Capt. Wil liam Clift of Mystic, Conn,, had sailed as master have been given to Peabody museum at Yale university as relics of early maritime history of the New England coast.

Kansas City, Mo.—Sixty-five years ago a young Confederate courier from Missouri and a Confederate “petticoat runner” from Mississippi met near Memphis. They never parted, and re cently celebrated the sixty-fourth an niversary of their marriage here at their home, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Victor both are more than ninety. Their romance be gan after the Confederate evacuation of Corinth, Miss. Young Bill Victor, whose home was at Shelbyville, Mo., was detailed to scouting duty with a detachment having headquarters in Memphis. Meet Petticoat Runner. One afternoon he was scouting on a Union movement near the Tennessee- Mississippi line. He met a southern party, in which was Miss Mary Mitch ell. The party had been to Memphis and was returning to the Mitchell plantation across the line in Missis sippi. Young Victor saw Mary—and offered to escort the party to the plantation. “I'd never paid any attention to soldiers until I met Bill,” Mrs. Victor said, “I'd been busy fighting Yankees. But I did pay so much attention to him that we were married within a year at Memphis.” Both Mr. and Mrs. Victor are in ex celient health. They are interested in politics and the scientific developments of the day. “Why, bedtime used to” be about 8:30 o’clock when I was a boy,” he said. “But since the radio came in I never go to bed until the last one signs off.” Made Good Spies. Mr. Victor has not been in Shelby-. ville since he left home at the age of seventeen to join the Army of the South. He was under Gen. Sterling Price when the Confederates besieged Lexington, Mo., and forced the Union leader, Colonel Mulligan, to surrender. His regiment’s first engagement, however, was in the bed of the Des Moines river, “somewhere along the Towa-Missouri line,” “We were slipping up on a Federal force, and. as it turned out, the Feder als were slipping up on us,” he ex plains. “We met in the dead of the night in the middle of the river and both sides went back to their own side of the river.,” Mrs. Victor’s services to the Confed erate cause consisted chiefly of wateh ing Federal troop movements along the Tennessee-Mississippi border and giv ing Confederates suflicient warning to flee to safety. _“We petticoat runners,” she said, “were the best spies because the Yankees were not afraid of us.” State Registers Babies by Numbers and Names Topeka, Kan.—This state encour ages parents to know their children by numbers as well as by names. It reserves the right, however, to assign the numbers to new born ba bies. When the bureau of vital sta tistics in the state board of health records a birth certificate, it informs the child’s parents under what regis. tration number the document is filed, and suggests that the figure be re membered by the family. This is a new policy inaugurated by Dr. Earle G. Brown, secretary of the board. Doctor Brown poinis out that the registry number may be helpful in later years If the certificate must be located immediately in the state ar chives. Musician Calls Jazz a Fountain of Youth Berlin.—Jack Hylton of London, known as the “jazz king of Europe,” has discovered the secret of eternal youth., Arriving in Berlin with his jazz orchestra for an extended stay, he said: “There is nothing that keeps a fel low so eternally young as playing in a jazz band.

CHARLTON COUNTY HERALD PUEBLO SQUAW IS ABSOLUTE MASTER Cave Man in Second Place in Home. New York.—The cave man myth has been exploded. He has only a secondary position in his own home, a visitor to the home of the Pueblo Indian cave men in Santa Clara, N, M, found. And the spouse rules the home as well as his worldly goods. Seeking out the homes of the orig inal cave men of the United States, far away from the cities where now and then a so-called *“cave man" makes his appearance much to the awe of a large following, Andrew B§. Wing visited one of the twenty Pueblo villages remaining in Arizona and New Mexico, delved into their family cus toms and their history. He found them still loyal to the Catholic faith, main taining a family life exceptionally free from friction and rearing children who are obedient and of the best be havior. “The Pueblo woman is the absolute master of her home,” Wing asserts. “There is no individual land owner ship, hut each man is alloted a piece of land which he can cultivate as long as he works at it industriously. When the crops are harvested and stored in the house they become the property of the wife. Most PPueblo marriages are successful and their family life is con genial. All observers comment on the obedience and good behavier of the Pueblo children.” . In one great communal cliff house explored by the writer 1,600 rooms were discovered. Woman, 85, Sold Papers 50 Years on Same Spot Berlin.—Frau Pauline Bath, aged eighty-five, is the first and oldest newspaper seller of Berlin. She re cently celebrated her golden jubilee in her little stall in the busy city stree known as Alt Moabit, where she ha sat for 12 hours every day since Oc tober, 1878. Her -reminiscences are mainly concerned with the growth of the city’s street traflic. The only thing that disturbs her contented mind is the inereasing com petition of other newspaper sellers in the neighborhood. “I have never asked for any public assistance in my life," she says. “All I hope is that the po lice won't allow any more news stands near my own.” Irish Army Dwindles From 50,000 to 5,000 Dublin.—Four years ago the Free State army numbered 50,000. Gradual reductions have brought the figure down to 9,000, and this process will continue antil the number is 5,000, all highly trained and equipped.

One of the paramount problems at this time is the matter of feeding for maximum egg production through the winter, when egg prices are highest. Some mighty good hints on this ques tion are supplied by R. L. Watkins, extension poultry specialist, Ames, in his bulletin for record flock keepers. His suggestions follow : “Winter eggs are laid by well-ma tured pullets and healthy old hens which are comfortably housed and properly fed. Maturity and health make for a strong-bodied egg machine. Pullets, to lay large eggs steadily throughout the winter, must have proper body size and weight. Leg horns or other light breeds may be considered ready for a regular laying ration when three to three and one fourth pounds in weight. Heavier breeds, such as Reds, Rocks and Wy andottes should weigh four and one half to five pounds. Immature pullets must not be forced into egg produc tion by feeding them on a regular lay ing ration. “Comfort enables the bird to utilize feed in manufacturing eggs instead of using the energy thereby obtained to maintain body warmth, Feeds are the raw materials out of which hens build eggs. : E “A well-balanced egg mash contain- t-g ground graing or grain by-prod wicts, protein concentrates in the form 0f meat and milk products; minerals in the form of bonemeal, salt and some grit; and oflen green food in the form of ground alfalfa must be kept available to hens and pullets’if they are to lay any number of eggs during the winter months, “Whole or cracked grains such as gorn, oats, wheat and barley should be used in combination with a mash to maintain body weight and comfort. Body weight cannot be maintained during heavy egg production unless sufficient grain ' feeds are included in the ration. In a ration made up of mash and grain the mash feed con tains most of the egg building mate rial while the scratch grain contains most of the fat and heat-building material. Good poultry management requires that the birds consume suffi ‘cient mash to maintain their egg pro duction, also that they eat sufiicient grains to maintain body weight, Heng losing weight soon stop laying” . e .W‘%-&‘ Cod Liver Oil Is Most - Easily Given in Feed The value of cod liver oil for poul try is summed up by one hen profes sor as follows: Stronger and health ier birds, prevention ‘@f'leg weakness from heavy laying in Jate winter and spring, better looking egg shells, more and stronger chicks from the eggs hatched, and fewer blood spots in eges, Cod liver oil is most easily fed, this professor writes, in semi-solid buttermilk or cottage cheese, Or, he says, you can feed it with the scratch grain—a quart to 100 hens every week, For a flock that size, his method is to mix about a teacupful of the oil with the scratech grain every other day. Keep this up until spring takes the flook outdoors again, Guard Against Disease in Feeding Green Bone .*Bome butcher shops have installed bone grinders and sell ground green bone, This is an excellent feed when fad fresh, but poultry offal wust not be ground in beeayse of the danger of transmitting dlse{;a to the flock This Is especially true of tuberculosis. Whenever a supply of green hone is purchased it should be, spread out thin in a cold room, If left in a paper, sack even In a room below freezing the center of the mass wHI heat and spoil, Green bone canhot he success fully kept In large quantities unless thinly spread. Poultry Notes A fresh supply of water should be uvailable to the hens at all times, L e During extremely cold weather birds should be given more corn and gruin than durlng mild weather, s & & Birds prefer graln feeds. The amount of mash consumed Is deter mined by the amount of graln fed, L The mash Is the egg food and the birds will like 1t and eat it as long as there Is plenty for them In the hoppers, .
