The annual meeting of the State '.
Dairymen's association will be held at
Au_irV., Mini.., Sec. 13, 14 and l€. It is :
expected tnat»th_ meeting will be more
largely attended this year than here
..'.vins to the fact that it ls held
in a month when the dairy market is
eoiii-iaratively quiet, and those inter
eeted In the industry will have more
time to give the meeting.
The gathering promises to present
some new features in the Haecker con
trove: sv, which was quite fully aired
at the last annual meeting. The friends
of Prof. Haecker are still smarting
un _<*r what they claim was injustice to
him, and from what can Ire learned in
dairy circles the fight will be resumed
In the next convention. Mr. Haecker"s
frit nds claim that thoy were defeated
by a fraudulent vote at the New Uim
convention, and that a number of votes
were recorded of parties who were not
members of the association and had no
right to vote.

P. P. Norton has been appointed to
the ; dairj commtesloner In
lowa to ti'.i the vacancy caused by the
death of 1.. B. Qates. Tbe lowa Home
stead has the folio* - mi; tO say of the
new appointee In its last issut-:
<;o\. Shaw, after taking ample time
to Investigate th - dairy situation in
lowa, has appointed Mr B. P. Norton,
cf Howard county, to till the vacancy
in the ofl .i iiy commissioner,
caused by th*. sad death of Mr. 1.. S.
Gates, whioh recently took place at
Omaha. The appointment of Mr. Nor
ton shows thai the goveraofr appre
ciates the purposes foi which the offic*
of the dairy commissioner was -created.
From very small beginnings Mr. Nor
ton has built up. near Crcs-co, 10., one
or the largest and nted dairy
farms in the state, provided with all
th« modern appliances for up-to-date
dairying, and has stocked it with a
herd which last year made an average
yield of '.'72 pounds of butter. His dairy
farm has not been bought and improv
ed with money made in some other
calling, but was earned by dairy farm
ing, and his herd does not consist of
purchases at fancy prices, but is home,
bred.
• • •
The number of "n'_ cows" produced
on the farm is unnecessarily iarge and
ought to be lessened. There is a wide-
id habit of breeding heifers once
or possibly twice with the intention .f
selling them while young, and as Is
■opposed wh - ' of making a
good piece of beef. There will be
eooug - arising necessarily from
con-'oi. ed< -rs. vr.<l among those that fot
any one of many reasons do not prove
good stock getters: ar.d to look upon
evet> heifer with an eye for bref, to
calculate her body value and to at
tempt to realize upon that is the worst
of breeding, and it is all too universal I
among breeders of the common stock '
of the country.
If an individual proves to ba a good I
and regular breeder she should be kept j
at it _.s long as she can breed and hold
hef hones together, even if she dies in
the business. In other words, the body
value is an insignificant element in the
worth of a good breeding animal, and
it should never shorten the life of such
a one ly a single day. We arer pro
ducing too much stock from immature
females, and not enough from old and
tested breeders.
If it has been decided In advance
t.hen a cow ehould go to the sha-nbles
the most satisfactory way is to begin
while yet in milk and feed moderately
heavy of food not expensive. This will
tend to sustain her milk yield and to
fatten as the milk fails, leaving her in
condition for the shambles without in
curring expense for feed after she has
ceased to give milk. In such cases the
milk yielded will go far towards paying j
the cost of feed, but when that revenue j
stops she should be sold immediatel. , :
fat or lean.

THE ST. PAUL GLOBE MONDAY NOVEMBER 21, 1898.
IS LOM M BEARTS
MAN IN* NEW JERSEY PUOVIDED
WITH A DOIBLE LOT OF
ORGANS
TWO SETS OF RIBS AS WELL
William Kino;, a Negro, the 3lan,

Hundred Yeara Old Can Stop

I ni'iue Thing..
From the New York World.
Out in Piainfield, N. J., there is a
r_an with two hearts and two sets of
ribs, to say nothing of a double breast
bone. His name is William King, and
he hails from New Bedford, Mass. He
declares that he tab. thirty-six chil
dren and so many grandchildren and
great-grandchildren that he has lost
sight of them. He frays he is over a
century old. King has been written
about in the medical journals abroad
for many years. He is a coal-black
negro. He arrived in P.air.fieid a cou
ple of days ago on a visit to his cousin,
Thomas Martin, who is vMirden of the
Jail there.
With him he brought letters from
half a dozen French savants and from
Dr. M. B. Long, of the Massachusetts
General hospital, who vouched for the
man's possession of two hearts and two
breastbones.
A reporter nnd an artist saw King
at Thoma-s Martin's home. He was
perfectly willing to talk about himself
■and to show the marvelous make-up
of his anatomy. Baring his breast and
his stomach, he sat down in a. chair.
"Now feel here," he said, pointing to
hie left breast.
The pulsations of a heart could be
felt easily. They came from the same
Place that everybody else's heart beats
come from.
"Now feel here," said the old man. In- ]

W. B. Hennessy. who was elected from one
of the representative districts of the Thirty
fourth senatorial district, in the Eighth and
Ninth wards of St. Paul, b?ars the ..Istim-tio-i
of being one of the very few St. Paul da!'?
newspaper men who have gone from the
ranks of active workers into un elective
office. There have been many of t.e delly
newsDaner m.n of this town who have gone
into appointive ofnce and one or two of th<-m
essayed an election, but Mr. Hennessy is
the only one who has Mtcceeded, at least In
recent years. J. J. Ryder tried for the as
sembly when he was on The Globe staff,
but was defeated and had to go out Into tiie
country to get a chance in his running. Meo
who remember things political will remember
the attempt that Witt K. Cochrane, on. or
the cleverest of St. Paul rei>_rter_. made to
beat Henry Johns, four ytat. ago. In th.
Fourth w.rd. Mr. Hennessy. l.ke Ryder,
•li<t. tins? h'p right breast. Sure enough,
another beating, just as clear ancl free
as the other, could be felt.
"Those are my two hearts." said the
old man. "and that's why I've lived so
Ions; they have divided among them
the work of keeping this old body go
ing."
BUT THE TWO HEART?
were HA nothing compared to the next
exhibition. The old trt-n rolled his ey s
and twitched his skin across his body,
.-.t'ddenly bis entire int:-r ot •*_ , fc»iie_ to
__.11 ever arid over. Hi-- f t *>n> i.-h __,r.k
w Hvd thi-.i bulged out .igrain. Viol «nt
mt.fular contraction, were _ -i.iinly go
ins on inside.
"I'm turning myself upside dwn,"
said the old man, and bo he wns.
One heai t was now far down on hia
ltft side, while the other beat away
regularly in Its old place on the right
side of his (hest. But this was t _*•
'« as,t remarkab.. of all. He had phot
[ down another set of ribs and another
breastbone, sn that the entire front of
| his body was as hard as his chest.
His stomach was protected by a
v all.
"Now I'll do some tricks," said the
old man placidly.
With that he proceeded to stop tht-
Inating of one heart, while the other
went on without any trouble. He gulp
ed a bit and rolled his sides, and
piesto, everything was back in shape
again.
"I've got two breastbones and two
sets of ribs." explained King, "one be
hind the other. I can drop the rear
ones down over my stomach. The doc
tors say I'm the only man in the world
who can do it. I first noticed this
when I was a boy — my chest was so
hard, and no b-b-wa on lt seemed to
hurt me. I guess Fitzsimmons couldn't
get in any solar plexus blow on me. I
can put bones in front of my plexus."
"How old are you?" asked the re
porter.
"Well," replied old King, "I don't
exactly like to say. but I'm morn a
hundred. I fought in the War of 1812
under Gen. Jackson at Xew Orleans.
I was in the Civil war. too, in Col.
Robert Gouid Shaw's Fifty-fourth Mas
sachusetts vo.-unteers. I spent threa
months on Folly island and six more
in Fort Wagner after we took it. I
was in Company H."
THOUGH PLIED WTTH QUESTIONS,
Old King could answer them perfectly
as far as war records go; he never
slipped up once on places or dates. He
carries for a cane an iron bar an inch
in diameter, with a crooked handle. He
can take this bar and by slapping it
across his left forearm bend it a cou
ple of inches ou*t of the straight line
and then bend it back again. This he
did for the reporter. There is a great
bunch of muscles on his forearm
where he hits the cane. In fact, though
a man very plainly advanced in yeara,
he possesses remarkable muscle*
i
which stand out ln bunches all over
his body.
Drs. M. B. Long and J. T. Fritts, |
well known in Piainfield, have given I
the following certificates as to King's
peculiar formation:
_...,T. hlB *J" t0 certify that I have examined
Wnliam King an< j fl n< i him an interesting ;
freak of nature. He has two hearts, one oc- '
cupying it 3 normal place ln the left thoracic !
ca .?*rx' •? other the rlglu thoracic cavity.
These he*art3 he can displace downward so
that they will occupy the lower abdominal
re i?_SP' , where **«y can be di-.tinctly felt.
"H.s liver o_._pi9s a position low down in '■
tbe abdomen. There is without doubt a :
double sternum, which hs can displace down- :
ward, and there is an absence of a diaphragm, i
— H. B. Long, M. D."
"This ls to certify that I have examined
William King, ard find that he apparently I
has two hearts, one on either side of the I
sternum. He has the faculty of displacing .
them— first one and. then the o:her— down in j
his abdomen. He aiso bends and straightens
a three-quarter inch iron bar by striking it
over his left arm with the bar* held in the
right. —J. T. Fritts, M. D."

Five young fellows were arrested

piled up in the corner cf a library rotm i
in this city would suggest the thought >
that some mischievous baby had been !
industriously -making pin-pricks on the j
large leaves, and that the print that
formerly adorned them fell through the
little holes; or he might think it the
work of some telegraph operator, who
copied the daas a_id dashes of his be
loved Morse -ivith some needlelike in
strument. But both conjectures would I
be wrong, for these are books for Bight- j
lees readers, a:«_ the room where the*
are distributed is calkd the New York
Free Circulating Libra- y for the Blind.
The books are large. ponderous
volumes, for if the "print" is too close
it is more difficult to interpret.
'The fln.ly sensitive touch that blind
he po-siss." an attendant said y.=.
t-rday, "seems to recompense them for
the less of their other faculties. They
sweep their fingers gantly along th.
pages, and an intelligent look, that be
speaks humor, pathos, deep thought or
denial of the statements made, flashes
across the face with a marvelous quick
ness that tells how rapidly the story I*
unfolded."
Some of the books have the raised
letters, and this style Is- called the
"New York point," but the others, that
look like pin-pricks, are ln the "Moon
print," which is a comparatively new
invention. The library is open on Mon
days, Thursdays and Saturdays from
1 to 4 o'clock, and books may be ob.
tamed by those who c__r.r_ot go to the
building by paying a small fee for theii
transportation. Among the volume
are works on poetry and the drama,
culture and music, religion, politica.
economy and civil government, history
and biography, physiology, romance,
travel an-d psychology. There are
many entertaining books for children,
too.
Maiilcal Watch.
A curious watch has been brought out in
France. The dial Is transparent, but there
are no works behind lt, and the handa ap
pear to move by magic. The secret lies in
concealing the works at the edge of the ease
and communicating the motion to tie hand:*
by means of a glass disk.
