Famous Tales and Legends Told in Brief Form
Walter Scott’s Tale of War in Lorraine
By J. W. MULLER
The chain of French forts from
Verdun, now being so fiercely fought
for, to Nancy, which form one com
bined system of defense for French
Lorraine, lie in a region famous in
history and legend. None is more
thrilling than the capture of Nancy
by the Swiss. This episode and the
destruction of the Burgundian army
are a fine part of Sir Walter Scott's
“Anne of Geierstein!*
Charles the Bold, ruler of Burgundy
and Flanders, duke of seven dukedoms,
* count of seventeen earldoms, was at
the summit of his eminence. In his
grip he crushed the estates of Bur
gundy and Flanders. He was invad
ing Lorraine and already had added
* to his titles that of duke of Lorraine.
’ He menaced great Louis of France and
boasted openly that he would nail the
hide of the old fox to a stable door.
He was. bargaining with Margaret of
Anjou for the lovely kingdom of Pro
vence, ruled by her mild old father,
Good King Rene, in excliunge for
which he promised to make war in
England on the house of York and re
establish Margaret’s house of Lancas
ter. And with all these affairs on his
hands he turned lightly, as to an ex
cursion, to make war on the Swiss.
In vain did the duke of Oxford, who
was in his camp as Margaret’s envoy,
advise him that these rough moun
taineers were bears who might well
ruin all his greater plans. He roared
with fury at the intimation that his
chivalry of Burgundy, his mallclad
mercenaries from all Europe, and his
new and wonderful fire-spitting can
non might fail to annihilate the Swiss,
who fought on foot with arrows and
'mammoth, clumsy, two-handed swords.
He said to the Swiss deputation that
had come to beg for peace:
“A deputation of your most notable
persons who shall meet me on your
frontiers with halters around their
necks and their swords held by the
points, may learn from me on what
conditions we will grant peace.”
“Then farewell, peace, and welcome
war,” said the undaunted Swiss dele
gates. “We will meet you on our fron
tiers with our naked swords, but the
hilts, not the points, shall be in our
grasp. Charles of Burgundy, we bid
you defiance, and declare war against
you in the name of the Confederated
Cantons 1”
Margaret’s nephew, Ferrand de
Vaudemont, whose heritage was the
dukedom of Lorraine, joined with the
Swiss. Charles laughed when he heard
it. “On to Neuchatel!” he said. “We
will teach these beggarly peasants a
lesson!”
At Granson, near the great lake of
Neuchatel, the beggarly peasants
ftyjght Burgundy’s army in a narrow
Pms and so fell on it from all sides
that by nightfall the shining host was
in mortifying flight.
The check merely infuriated Charles.
Before midsummer of the next year he
had ready a new army of at least sixty
thousand men with one hundred and
fifty pjeces of cannon. They entered
the land of the Swiss, who had called
on the Free Cities of the Rhine to help
them. At Morat, near Berne, the Bur
gundian cannon battered the walls
around Swiss ears; but the artillery,
novel though it was, failed to terrify
them. It plowed great gaps among
them, but before it could fire again
the survivors rushed in with those
clum3y five-foot swords and hewed
mallclad men down as If they were
saplings. Charles himself had to ride
for his life with the steer-horns of
Uri, which the Swiss blew as war
trumpets, braying behind him as he
Even he was stunned for a time;
but when word came to him that Fer
rand and the Swiss had dared to leave
their mountain fastnesses and had
overrun Lorraine, taking the city of
Nancy, he roused himself and laughed
r again, gleefully. “They have trapped
themselves!” he cried. “I swear that
T shall destroy them utterly before
two weeks have passed.
Three days before Christmas his
army sat down before Nancy In a
strong position. That night there was
a great commotion in the duke’s tent.
When his officers rushed in, they saw
him standing undressed, with his
sword in his hand. He roared that
strangers hud been by his bedside.
The bodyguard was incredulous, for
there were many there who could
swear that they had not closed their
eyes. But he pointed to a table.
Pinned to it with a dagger was a parch
ment signed with three crosses. Ev
eryone present recognized at once
what It was, and even In that armed
camp many of them trembled; for the
parchment was a summons from the
dreaded Vehm-Gericht, the mysterious,
mighty secret tribunal of Germany,
whose secret, unknown and powerful
judges exercised a Jurisdiction that
awed even emperors.
The summons called on Charles to
appear at a given place and time un
attended and deliver himself to the
‘officers of the tribunal, who would lead
|dm to the place of trial. Falling ap
OopfUcM by J. W. Mollar
pearance, he was outlaw and doomed
to death without hearing.
“I know from what quiver this ar
row comes!” said Charles, his lips
white with rage. “It is shot by that
degenerate noble, Albert of Geierstein.
By St. George of Burgundy! Nothing
shall save him after such an insult as
this! I'will hang him to the highest
steeple in Nancy and his daughter
shall choose the meanest herdboy in
my array for husband!”
Little more than a week later, on
the Ist of January, 1477, in a bitter
dawn of ice and snow, there came a
sound like the roar of an avalanche.
The officers rushed to their posts and
were cut down by men who appeared
here, there, everywhere. The artil
lerists manned their guns, and found
that they had been spiked. The Swiss
poured through. A red glare broke
out and lit up the scene. The Burgun
dian camp had been fired at four ends.
When day broke the duke of Oxford
found the body of Charles, duke of
Burgundy, lying mired by a waterhole,
and neur him, in the disguise of a Bur
gundian man-at-arms, lay the body of
Count Albert of Geierstein, the avenger
of the Vehm-Gericht.
“Anne of Geierstein” has for its
hero and heroine the son of the ex
iled duke of Oxford, the loyal Lan
castrian, and Anne, daughter of the
strange and eccentric count of Gei
erstein (Vulture’s Rock), a castle in
the Swiss Alps. The novel is not
one of Scott’s great ones, but it is
worthy and sound; and it possesses
a sentimental interest to his admir
ers because it represents what may
truly be called the sunset of his
genius. He had his first paralytic
seizure in the year following its
publication.
EYES OF THE YOUNG PEOPLE
Backward Student Rapidly Makes Up
Lost Ground When Astigmat
ism Is Corrected.
The oldest boy In the class had
been called upon to read and had pro
duced humiliation on the part of his
teacher, who was entertaining a vis
itor. The boy bent over his book,
studying out the words one by one.
Smaller children read the lesson off
quickly. Thoroughly despairing of
Tom, for that was the dull boy’s name,
the teacher addressed the visitor:
“What would jiou do with a hopeless
pupil like that?”
“Have his eyes examined,” the an
swer came quickly.
“Why, I never had thought of that,”
gasped the teacher, and then with the
thought came various recollections of
Tom ns he sat In his seat crouched
down over his book and her sharp ad
monition to sit up straight; of his ut
ter failure to copy problems or sen
tences written on the board; of his in
ability to learn, which came not from
lack of trying, but from what she had
termed “dumbness.”
The teacher visited Tom’s father
and mother. After considerable per
suuslon they consented to take the boy
to an oculist. Tom was found to be
suffering from nstigmntism, which
caused the words on a printed page to
double and dance before his eyes. A
pair of glnsses corrected the difficulty,
and Tom returned to school able to
see as well as any normal boy. He is
still handicapped by being two years
behind his grade, by a painful lack of
self-confidence and by a reputation of
dullness. However, all of these handi
caps are being rapidly overcome.
A child who needs glnsses needs
them at once and not several years
later. To wait until he has grown
older on the plea that he will break
his glnsses or outgrow them Is to do
him nn Irreparable injury.
Priestly Humor.
The guests nt the silver jubilee of
Rev. James Lynch of St. Martin of
Tours parish, Brooklyn, learned, in a
very simple way, of the secret of his
great success amongst his people. Here
Is his speech, which, for cold and un
romantic truth-telling, has never been
surpassed : “Dear brethren; At my
silver jubilee I was anxious that you
should ’make a fuss over me.’ You have
actually made a fuss over me. I am
grateful. When the memory of the glit
ter nnd glamour of thlfc day shall have
passed away, you may forget that the
bishop was here; you may forget the
beautiful sermon preached; you may
forget the beauty of the church and the
sweetness of the music, but you will
never forget that it was the one occa
sion since my arrival here some years
ago that, on entering the pulpit, I did
not talk about the collection.**

TAX OF $100,000 ASKED
FROM BENEFICIARIES OF JOHN H.
HARBECK EBTATE.
Colorado Inheritance Tax Commleaion
Buea In New York on Property
Valued at $15,000,000.
WaatM-a Nawapßpar Union Ntwi Service.
Boulder, Colo. —Suit against the ben
eficiaries of the will of the late John
H. Harbeck, Colorado and New York
multimillionaire, to recover approxi
mately SIOO,OOO alleged to be due this
state as inheritance tax, was filed in
New York by Leslie Hubbard, state in
heritance tax commissioner.
Hubbard claims to have affidavits
by which he can prove that Harbeck
was a resident of Colorado at the time
of his death, Nov. 8, 1910. If he es
tablishes this point the bulk of the es
tate will come under the laws of this
state. When Harbeck died the estate
was appraised at $3,041,020.87. Many
of the stocks have since become, war
brides, and it is estimated that the es
tate will now reach $15,000,000 in
value.
William H. Harbeck, a nephew; Mrs.
Kate Harbeck, the widow; Albert S.
Brown, Francis B. Clarke and G. W.
Carr James, as beneficiaries, are made
defendants in the suit filed by Hub
bard. The specific amount asked is
$01,037.53, and interest at 6 per cent
since Harbeck’s death.
Mr. and Mrs. Harbeck lived in Boul
der for ten years.
It was presumed that most of Har
beck’s fortune was New York proper
ty. About a year ago it was learned
that it consisted principally of stocks
and bonds and was, hence, assessable
under the Colorado inheritance law.

were broken Jan. 2 with a total of 232
applications for over 75,000 acres of
land within the district covered by
the local office. The total receipts
of the office for the day, including
only land filed upon, were $5,885, and

TRAINING COLLIE DOGS
Unfailing Source of Help and Sat
isfaction to Fanner.
First Essential In Breaking Animal for
Any Purpose Is to Teach Him to
Mind—Pup Learns Quickly
What Is Wanted.
Upon farms where stock is kept, a
well-broken collie dog Is w an unfailing
source of help and satisfaction, while
an unbroken, untrained dog is a con
tinual nuisance. In handling stock
with a dog, it is important that the dog
be well-trained, and that great care
be exercised while the animals are
getting used to being managed by him.
When those two conditions are ful
filled it Is surprising how easily and
economically stock can be taken care
of.
The first essential In breaking a dog
for any purpose Is to teach him to
mind. Dogs are Intelligent and af
fectionate animals and are usually
gratified to do the will of their master.
If possible, an animal should be brok
en to mind without fear of punish-
Friend of Any Farmer.
ment In breaking dogs to handle
stock It Is a great advantage to have
stock that Is used to being driven by
a dog, upon which to break the puppy.
Stock that Is not used to a dog ts
often easily frightened, or it may fight
the dog.
It is an excellent plan to have an
older and well-broken dog to assist In
the training, as dogs are imitative.
The puppy quickly learns what is
wanted by association with the older
dog. In training dogs avoid shouting.
It is as easy to teach them to mind
a single word or a whistle, and much
more satisfactory, and remember that
much more can be accomplished by
kindness than harshness.
TEST SEED WITHOUT CHARGE
Department of Agriculture and State
Laboratories Will Perform Work
for Farmers.
The seed laboratory of the United
States department of agriculture, and
also the seed laboratories of many of
the experiment stations of the state
colleges of agriculture, will make with
out charge tests of alfalfa seed and
other seeds both for purity and ger
mination. The test for purity deter
mines the percentage of pure seed
and weed seeds, including dodder.
Samples sent to the department
should be addressed to the Seed Lab
oratory. United States Department of
Agriculture, Washington. D. C. The
name and address of the seller, the
year and place of growth, the price
paid, and the name and address of
the sender of the seed should ac
company the sample in so far as this
information can be given.
SHED TO STORE THE MANURE
Loss by Leaching When Exposed in
Winter Amounts to Considerable
Sum—Keep It Covered.
Chemical analysis made during five
years at the Ohio experiment station
show that barnyard manure loses about
one-half Its potassium, one-third Its
nitrogen and one-fourth Its phosphorus
when exposed to the weather for three
winter months.
At prices prevailing before the Eu
ropean war the fertility constituents
In a ton of manure would be worth
about $2. The* loss by lenching three
months would then amount to about 80
cents. At the present cost of potash
the loss would be nearly $2 from this
material alone. A shed to store the
manure should pay for Itself this win
ter.
FEED VALUE OF SUGAR CORN
Growers of Crop Give It More Atten
tion Than Ordinary Stover—Good
Winter Stock Feed.
Large growers of sugar corn think
highly of the fodder derived from
this crop nnd usually give It more care
and attention than ordinary stover.
Owing to the sugaT It contains. It
Is a good winter stock feed, since
sugar is both fattening and heating.
Furthermore. If grown for the can
nery or the market trade. It Is apt
to carry a goodly measure of small
ears.
Matured sweet corn possesses prac
tically the same feeding value as field
corn.
SHAPING UP A STRAW STACK
Few Minutes Spent in Cleaning Up
Will Be Well Paid For—Straw
la Valuable Property.
Every strew pile has quite a lot of
straw strewn around the stack that
will be covered up by snow and prac
tically wasted If It Is not taken care
of. This straw la worth money, and
a few hours put In shaping up the
stack and picking up the scattered
straw will be mighty well spent.
HOGS INFESTED WITH WORMS
Animal Cannot Economi
cally While in Weakened Condi
tion—Remedy Is Given.
A hog that Is Infested with worms
cannot produce pork economically, be
cause Its system Is not In normal con
dition. Furthermore, such a hog is
also more susceptible to contagious
and other diseases than one not af
fected In that manner. We have of
ten made the statement that worms
are frequently the indirect cause of
cholera. Do not understand us to
say that worms will produce cholera,
says a writer In an exchange. Far
from It. Cholera Is a germ disease
and can be produced offty by the chol
era germ, but a strong, vigorous hog
is not nearly so susceptible to cholera
as is one whose system Is In a run
down condition.
A very good, practical remedy for
worms consists In feeding one pound
of copperas to 100 pigs for a period
of five days. Then feed no copperas
for six weeks; after that feed cop
peras for five days again as before and
continue this intermittent copperas
feeding from birth to block. The cop
peras should be dissolved in water
and mixed with the grain, preferably
ground grain of some kind. Many
hog feeders are using this remedy and
recommend It very highly.
PREPARING SOIL FOR WHEAT
Quite as Much Depends on Prelimi
nary Work for Best Development
as on Use of Fertilizer.
Quite as much depends upon the
proper preparation of the soil for the
best develop tit of plants us the use
of fertilizers. A case in point Is that
of an Intelligent Missouri furmer who
lived in a section where the ideaV pre
vailed that wheat could not be profit
ably grown there. He had tried to
raise wheat on his farm, in the old,
rough way, and could get but ten or
twelve bushels per acre. He visited
the state experiment station at a time
when a plot of ground was being pre
pared for wheat and became so Im
pressed with their thorough methods
of soil preparation that he prepared
a field on his farm In the same way,
and from this harvested a crop of 35
bushels of good wheat per acre, the
only fertilizer used being stable ma
nure.

face Is very much to be preferred If It
can be had. We believe It Is better to
have the farmstead next to the road,
about half way from either corner,,
rather than to have It set back in tne
middle of the farm.
COVERING FOR MANURE HEAP
If Protection of Some Kind Is Not
Given Valuable Nitrogen and
Nitrates Are Lost.
The manure heap Is a scene of bnc
terlnl activities. When It lies very
long the nitrogen Is transformed tnto
ammonia and escapes. When it escapes
It Is gone forever.
Some of the manure changes Into ni
trates, and these are washed away and
lost If the manure heap is uncovered.
Nitrates are soluble, and when they
are washed away the farm loses all
their value. A part of the nitrates
are attacked by bacteria and become
nitrogen gas.
BEST PLACE FOR SEED CORN
Unused Room in House Where It Will
Escape Severe Freezing and Keep
Dry Is Favored.
Seed corn must be stored In a dry
place where It Is well enough pro
tected to Insure It from severe freez
ing. Lofts of stables are not always
dry.
The best place to store seed corn Is
In an unusfed room In the house.
ICE NECESSARY FOR SUMMER
One-Half Ton Per Cow If Cream la
to Be Produced—Two Tone Per
Cow If Milk Is Bhipped.
Store one-half ton of Ice per cow If
cream Is to be produced, and two tone
per cow If whole milk Is to be shipped.
This quantity. If properly stored,
should provide the Ice necessary for
dairy and household use for a year,
raking due allowance for melting.
