cause of her delay. She complained of not
feeling WELL With his characteristic kind
ness of heart, he told her to lie down awhile
and he would see that her work was attend
ed to- He thought he would do 1t himself.
1t was something he had never done be-
fore, and on this occasion only to relieve
his indisposed servant. He had gone as far
as the top of the area steps. He was in
side of his courtyard, and not upon the
sidewalk. His attention was first attract
ed by hearing some remark in which the
words 'old man were used. The remark
was not addressed to him. He looked up,
as one naturally would engaged in sweep.
ing, and saw two men walking slowly. One
was taking off his overcoat, which he have
to the other, who ran across the street with
it. This movement, however singular, did
not create any suspicion in the mind of Mr..
Rogers. He heard the one on the opposite
side say, Don't jim; you had better not
All this occupied but moment or two.
The other Immediately made dash at him
with a knife, coming through the gate and
in the yard. 1t would seem from this that
murder as we'll as robbery was intended
from the beginning.
This attack was made at his head, and
the hat of the unfortunate man was cut in
several places. Mr.. Rogers naturally threw
up his hands to ward off the blows. His
assailant then quickly grappled him, aud
in the struggle that en5ued succeeded IN OBJ
tanning the possession of his pocket-book,
which he thurst in the breast pocket of his
flannel sack. Mr.. Rogers became exhaust
ed in the struggle, and for moment ceased
his resistance. 1t was then that the assas-
sin cut his watchguard and thurst the watch
into the same breast pocket.
In the account which you copy from the
New York Times it is stated that the mas
sive chain attracted the eye Of the assail-
ant Mr. Rogers wore no massive chain.
He had worn for years, and did on this oc-
casion, a very plain hair chain, with small
gold slide. 1t was by no means conspicu-
Gus. A massive gold chain would not have
been easily cut. The act seemed to fire
Mr.. Rogers anew, and he again seized hold
of his assailant, hoping to detain him untl
assistance came, crying with what little
strength he had left, g Murder p and
"Watch n' 1t was then that the fatal
wound was given.
The coat was torn from the murderer in
his struggle to escape after the stabbing
took place. Mr.. Rogers kept the piece of
garment in his hand until he reached his
parlor, and told those who gathered about
him they would find his pocket-book and
watch in it. He had secured his property,
but lost his life. The time of the occur
renee was little before seven o'clock.
These are the facts as they were stated
to me by my unfortunate friend a few
hours before he died. They were given in
answer to inquiries which were made with
a view oflearning from his own lips all the
circumstances as near as lie could remem-
Der them.
No word was addressed to Mr.. Rogers by
his assailant. There was therefore no
quarrel previous to the assault. The at
tack was made in his courtyard and with
out any provocation,

The TWitchell Murder Case

This was a remarkable case. The per-
sou murdered was a Mrs. Hill, the mother
of Twitchell's wife Both mother and
daughter had led adventurous lives. Mrs.
Hill for many years kept house OF bad
repute in Washington. 1t was splenaidly
furnished, aud gambling apartment was
attached. She accumu tied wealth, and
attempted to bring up her daughter, a beau
tilul girl, in a respectable manner. But
the Influences Of the mothers establish
ment reached the child and as she grew up,
she took not ouly one, but a good many
false steps Her mother sent her to Sab
bath school and church, and attended reg
ularly herself, being piously inclined and
deyout in her worship, while carrying on
her establishment OF death and hell. Final
ly a man named Martin married the beau
tiful but erriug daughter, hoping to reform
her But he could not tame the passions
which had for some time been let loose.
This marriage resulted in a divorce.
The mother sold out her effects in Wash
ingtou, went to Philadelphia, purchased an
elegant mansion, joined or regularly and
deyoutly attended church, and behaved her
self like good woman. She won the love
of rich old miser named Hill, who mar
red her, not knowing of her former career.
The daughter came to Philadelphia but
was not admitted into Hills family. She
seduced a young merchant, married man,
and lived with him unblushingly, to the
great unhappiness of his wife and family.
After wasting his property, She got sick
of him and shutted him off, taking ply
sician of good standing in his place. The
physician supported her luxariously for
awhile, till the association became notori-
Gus and infamous, when he broke oft the
connection. The mother then supported
her erriug daughter, without permitting
| Hill to know it. Iu q short time, however,
the daughter made an alliance with George
S. Twitchell, an elderly man, who placed
his wife in a lunatic asylum, and took this
depraved beauty TO his home in South Jer-
sey as housekeeper. Twitchell and his
housekeeper conspired to bring a wealthy
dentist into black-mailing scheme. The
dentist had made advances to the gay SER
pent, but he discovered the plot and explod-
ed it.
Young Twitchell, son of the old master
of the ''housekeeper," then appeared i'll the
play. He seduced the beautiful housekeep-
er, now about twenty-five years of age,
away from his aged father, much to the au
noyance of the old man, who attempted to
save the fair one by boarding her on. in a
respectable family, but it was Of no avail.
Young Twitchel married her.
Soon after his alliance, Hill, the miser
husband Of the mother, died, leaving his
wife quite wealthy. She played the part of
a frst-class saint, giving literally to chari-
ties, churches, &c.
A few months since, of Sunday night,
the widow Hill was murdered in her own
house, and the place was was robbed of a
large sum of money.
The daughter was arrested as the insti-
gator Of the crime, and her hasbaud was
also charged with the act. A curious chain
of evidence was introduced, and has result
ed in finding Twitchel guilty Of murder.

The GLOBE A VAST GAsoMETER. Iu
Erie Pa, there is large mandatory OF
workers in brass, where the machinery Is
driven and the buildings lighted by the gas
from an unproductive oil we'll. For more
than two years the proprietors have brought
the gas by means of three-inch iron pipe
from an unsuccessful oil we'll 1900 feet
distant from the mandatory, and used it
as fuel for their boilers and as lights for
their works. The flow, it is stated, has
never stopped, never changed in amount OF
pressure the gas is of good lighting prop
critics, and when at night or Oh Sunday the
works are stopped the gas is still supplied,
and at night is lighted at the mouth OF a
pipe of two or two and a half inches dame
ter, situated near the top of the main build
ing. This light is sufficient to illuminate
several streets and squares in every direc-
ton, and the escaping gas makes noise as
of escaping steam, that may be heard at a
long distance, while the gas flame is not less
than four or five feet high. These facts
have been cited as strong proofs of the the
ory that the interior of the earth is filled
with condensed gas, under heavy press
ure. The solid crust Of the earth, it is
estimated, is thirty miles thick, or one two
hundred and sixtieth part of the diameter.
AS the average rate of increased tempera-
ture is one degree Fahrenheit for every
foot Of descent beneath the surface of the
earth, point would soon be reached where
the most refractory metals can only exist
in the form of vapor. Hence, the globe
may be considered as vast gas-holder.

A good story is told of Mexican Buchan-
an, the tragedian, who is said to he one of
the finest ''poker" players in the world.
While in Australia few years since, Mr..
Buchanan had thrifty, speculative agent,
who took the money at the door and gen
orally kept it. The tragedian couldn't well
afford to dispense with this shrewd man )
services for SO trifing matter, SO he art
fully inoculated the speculative agent with
mania for this game of poker, which is
said to be extremely fascinating, and when
the agent had captured all the money at
night Mr.. Buchanan would skilfully and
unfailingl ly win it all away from him during
the day. la this manner Mr.. Buchanan
redressed wrong, killed time and introduced

fruit trees have been injured by setting in them
frost-bitten scions, to let this warning pass un-
needed. Three years ago the present month,
cut sufficient quantity Of scions to graft
twenty small sized trees; l inserted the cut
end of each one in potato, wrapped them up
in old woolen cloths, and put them in the cell
lar, in moist place. These had set in the
spring, and they all lived, with but two or three
exceptions, and those were not waxed proper
ly when set. Last February (after the coldest
of the month) l cut about as many more, and
set them in the spring, in the same orchard;
and although took great pains in setting them,
nearly one half did not grow. Upon examina-
ton of the stocks from whence they were cut,
found many Of them had winter killed before
cutting; and l think this is one great reason
why there has been so much complaint about
scions failing to grow. The severe cold of
this month and next, with the changes OF the
weather, is too much for young twig to bear
in many localities in our State, and even in
most any orchard in Maine There will be
some trees more exposed to winds and cold
than others, and on snch trees the tip ends of
the young twigs often perish in winter. Take
time by the forelock, is an old maxim, but it
is not dead yet; therefore, to all those who
would make sure of good sclons, repeat it,

VERY HARD AND DURABLE CEMENTS. Th.
SchWartZe, civil engineer in Leipsic, recon-
mendS the following methods of making two
very hard and durable cements
l. Mix together thoroughly 4 to parts dry
powdered clay parts fine rust-free iron i'll
ings, part black oxide of manganese, 1-2 part
common salt, and 1-2 part borax; powder the
whole as finely as possible, and stir with water
to thick jelly. 1t must be very quickly used.
Dry the cemented parts at first by low heat,
afterwards slowly increasing to an incipient
red heat Thus treated this cement becomes
very hard and glossy, resisting perfectly well
boiling water or strong red heat.
2. Mix equal parts by weight Of fine, sifted,
black oxide OF manganese powder and finely
powdered zinc white; stir the mixture with
soluble glass to the fluid paste, and use very
quickly. This cement is as hard and durable
as No. l.
BONES AND Fowls. Bones usually have at
tached to them quantity of flesh and fat,
which render them valable. The fat enables
the fowls to resist the cold; the flesh gives
them muscle and material for the formation of
eggs; the carbonate OF lime furnishes egg
shells; and the phosphate yields materials for
bones and for the tissues. boy can, in few
minutes, chop up with q hatchet all the lesser
bones that come from the table, and we regard
them as very valuable. If we were to start a
poultry establishment Oh a large scale, we
should certainly make arrangements to pro-
cure all the fresh bones possible. 1t would not
be difficult to devise machine that would crack
them into fragments the size Of large beans,
and we should get paid twice. first through the
chickens, and secondly through the improved
character of the manure. Farmers Home
