KEEPING Eoas.-A correspondent
Of the Rural Ne,o Yorker gives the
following plan II take boxes Which
hold about 1900, put on the bottom q
layer Of oats, and set my eggs all poin t
downward, so that no one touches the
other, until the layer is full. Then
cover and set in a cool dry place,
where it does not freeze, until used.
I have followed this way for the last
twenty years, and cannot say that /
ever lost more than one or two out o.
fifty" The eggs will keep still long
er if the box be occasionally turned
over so as to exchange the ends Of the
eggs.

BRAINERD ITEMS
From tho Tribune of the L

From tho Tribune Of the 10TH.
The stage from st. Cloud now arrived
here every morning so ~ to connect with
the train going west on the N. P. r. R.. 1T
8 o'clock. This is convenient arrange
ment, and will make the stage line up this
way . desirable route frou st. Paul.
During the past ten days the great piles
of bridge timber that were framed here Ia 1t
fall and have since remained near tho track
just north Of Front street, have been loaded
on fiat cars and sent west to Moorehsad TO
be used in the approach and bridge over
Red River at that point. The timbers be.
ing all framed and numbered, the struct-
ure can he speedily put together, and when
completed will be one of the safest and
most substantial character.
Contrary to the fears of every one, the
N. P. road has been kept clear during the
recent snow storms, and trains have been
running regularly. every day, through to
Moorehead. There has been no lack of
good management to attain this, and had
there been an absence of good work and
careful attention on the part of the chief,
and the noble men on the road, the result
mi gut have been different. The public can
rest assured that when the Northern Pacific
Railroad is 'clogged, all other lines will
also be impassable-unless it be tao snow
shoe overland, or dog-express.
An occasional new engine for the North
ern Pacific bears down upon us from the
east, and comes dancing into Brainerd with
all the gaiety Of new and beautiful ma
chine, saoh as first clsss locomotive only
is. One was sent on the road a few days
ago, which makes twenty-five locomotives
now on the road, besides the two that were
sent to the west and to be used on the fin
ished section Of ~ miles between Kalma
and Wala Wala. There is no superduity Of
engines here, however, as We learn that Su-
perintendent Hobart has to use his best in
genuiiy to furnish motive power even now
for the immense business that has been to
do since tho road was opened through TO
Red River.
We had soclable talk o day or two
since with Mr.. J. J. Stephens, who was
down on business from his logging camp
on split-hand Creek, which is thirty miles
below and this side Of Pokegoma Falls
Mr.. Stephens informed us that no one
could conceive Of the immense NUMBERING
operations that have been carried on dur
ing this winter on the upper Mississippi
He could give no safe estimate of the az
gregate amount that will be driven down
the river this spring, but says there has
been at least a third, and perhaps more,
logs got out this season than ever be-
fore in any one season, in the his
tory Of numbering in this part Of the
country. He says the river will DO one
mass Of logs from Pokegoma to Minneapo-
Lis during tho driving season. The pres
ent winter has been the most favorable one
ever known in Miunesots for carrying on
the NUMBERING business, and 1t has been
uobly improved. The probability is that
after this winters cut has been marketed
the price Of lumber will fall very eonsid-
ersbly below present quotations, which
VII be Welcome news to everybody.

A STRUGGLE FOR LIFE WITH A
LUNATIC.

A terrible encounter occurred in the
Longview Lunatic Asylum, 10 Ciucin-
mutt, few days ago between one of the
patients, powerfully built negro named
Jones, and one of the attendants.
Jones's disposition was uely, and his
prorensities Of the most vicious charao-
ter, prompting bin not only to injure
others, but to infict physical damage
upon himself. The unfortunate man
was subject to epileptic fits, and when
not suffering from these 1t was neces-
sary to keep him IN the room and ap-
ply the straight jacket to prevent him
from doing violence to h imself. On
Tuesday last symptoms OF frenzy ap-
peared in him, aud one of the attend.
ants (Joh n Green) undertook as usual
to apply the straps. He no sooner ap.
preached Jones, however, than the Iun.
attic struck him powerful blow With
his fist, aud drove him back. Arm
strong, another attendant, instead of in
terieriug, ran down stairs to procure
more assistance, leaving Green to fight
it cut. In moment the frantic mani.
40 was at him again. The fire Of Wild
indignation flashed from his bloodshot
eyes. His mouth fairly frothed with
fury, and in his rage he struck out
wildly and desperately. Green tried to
make for the door, but was partly stun
ned and confused by the blows. In
the melee Jones c.ught 10 a chair
and dashed it at his victim,
who now ran in upon him and
caught him around the waist, as the
least likely way of being hurt, At the
same time keeping his eye on the door
in the hope Of reaching near enough to
spring through and escape from the
room. The paaueuvre did not succeed,
however, for no sooner was the only
chance Of escape approa ched than an
irresistible gyration Of tie madman's
body, carrying With it the weight OF
the keepers, slammed ,hs door which
closed with u dead latch, and now
made the room the prison of both. And
here for few seconds, which to the
keeper seemed protracted hours, the
struggle continued. The chair was
broken, and armed with one of the
rounds, jones raincd his blows upon
the head, arms, shoulders and back Of
the almost exhausted man, whose cries
for help SO affected some Of the patients
outside that they kicked 10 the door
and rushed to the rescue. Armstrong
now arrived with assistance. Jones
was secured, and Green was carried out
bleeding. It was then observed that
Jones was breathing heavily; that he
was undergoing an epiieptic parox,sm,
but though he was properly cared fot
he died tho same evening.

ssSELF.MAOE MEN''-TIlE SECRET
OF SUCCESs. *, ~

Horace Greeley, in a reeeot disquisi.
ton GU Learning Without Teachers,
or Self. Made Men," advises tho "youth
lacking money, and ambitious for
knowledge" not to go to college aud
run in debt to pay his way, but to tol-
low trade aud study in his spare
hours. This does not suit the medi.
OGRE Hterati, who, having spent their
prime in acquiring al tho living and
dead languages, 6ud at last tho ap-
plication Of this education will no., in
the "struggle for life," net them much
more than what is reaped by the aver
age laborer, without tho - called polite
education.
1t is fallacy that to become scien-
tic the youth must first master all
tho languages, dead and living. In
fact so far as agriculture is concerned,
the student may acquire practical
knowlcds sc ot'so mnch as relates to
this art Without thorough knowledge
of the dead language at all. He may
acquire the technical term as he goes
along, aud the student in science, We
think, in such institutions for instance
as the Sheffield Scientific School at
New Haven, and perhaps the Poly
technic School at Troy, moy support
himself or nearly so by honorable in.
dustry during his course.
There is great deal of buncombe
in the landation of "self.made' men.
As rule they have beooms celebrated
from their innate talents, and in spite
Of the difficulties experienced in self
education. The higher the educ,-
tioo the 'better-if only that ed.
ucation is tempered by practical
art and practical science. This il
the talismau TO success in "these
times" and has always made such men
as Calico, Newton, and Agasiz, in
science, and tho host of thinkers and
workers in every department Of tcchni-
cal art.
That greater progress has not been
made 10 agricultural science is due to
the fact that it has been treated from
the old educational stand point. But
progress is being made in this direc-
tion, and we must be content to wait
The next ten years will show such
advance in this direction as will aston.
ish the world. We are yet only on
the threshold Of agricultural sci &c
We are yet to 6nd that the laws under.
laying tho most successful prosecution
Of this industry are as simple IS they
are beautiful. We must work and
wait.
