aftray occurred yesterday morning, near
Newport, Ky, between Frank Shields
and John Schuster, aged 17and 10. They
were returning home from q dancing par.

told him if he could not sing better to shut
up. Thereupon ensued quarrel, which
came to blows, and in the struggle Shields
stabbed Schuster twice in the side and

A LabOr.Saving Item.

Many ladies prefer to attend to the
more delicate parts of cookery them
selves, as the pie and cake-baking, etc. |;
they have natural fondness for it, or
they feel that it is well for them to take
exercises of this kind. But what an
unintentional distuI bance they some
times make in poor Bridget's dominions!
Of course it is the part of welltrained
domestic to run at her mistress beck
and call to supply all her needs, to
"clean up after her." and to make no
remarks but, on the other hand, every
lady should do her work as neatly and
with as little disturbance of kitchen
routine as possible. 1t is a mistake, for
instance, to suppose that each distinct
operation in cake.making, to be neatly
done, requires the use of separate
utensil. Here are sugsr, -four. butter,
and milk to be measured, eggs to be
beaten, and soda to be dissolved. One
cup may be used first for sugar and
-four, as they are both dry, and after.
ward for the butter and milk. Soda
may be dissolved in the bowl in which
the eggs are beaten, after the eggs have
been added to the cake. When all is
finished it will be found that very few
dishes have been soiled. This is oi
course small item, but it "tells in the
long rum"

Lighting o Fire.

Many persons have often noticed the
extreme difficulty encountered in light
ming the FIRE in a stove, especially in a
still, damp morning. The stove at first
won't draw even vigorous "blowing"
will not suffice; and then when it does
start, it Is with sort of an explosion or
outward rush of air, which fills theroom
with smoke and gas, oftentimes putting
the unpleasant fumes in the face of the
operator. The trouble is caused by the
difficulty encountered in overcoming
the inertia of the long column of air in
the pipe or chimney, by the small col.
umn of air, that can be forced up
through the interstics of wood and coal,
at the bottom of which the fire is kin.
died. All this may be remedied by sim.
ply putting few shavings or bits of dry
paper on the top Of the wood or coal,
and first lighting that; it Immediately
bursts into blaze, because the air has
perfectly free access to it from all sides
the heated air forces its way into the
chimney, and establishes there an up
ward current. The match can then b.
applied to the kindllng under the fue

burst into, q brisk blaze.-Am. Rwa

Management OF Sheep.

The inquiry is often made Of me how
l manage my sheep to obtain so large a
yield OF wool from year to year. Some
say, "you must feed a large amount Of
grain - and when l tell them that ]
feed no grain to my sheep in the last
three or four years, they seemed sur
prised but such is the fact. If grain
IS fed, corn is best, and should be led in
the months of November and December,
assisting nature (the animaI in its ef.
forts to clothe itself with q heavy warm
coat preparatory for winter. 1t is in
these months that wool grows the fast.
est for the reason above stated.
My sheep are pure bred Spanish Me.
rinos, and / raise no ticks. A sheep
that is infested with ticks cannot pro
duce heavy fleece of wool. A sure
and cheap preventive is to feed once
in two weeks one twentieth part of sui
phur with their salt; it not only pre-
vents ticks, but also the various skin dis
easee.- Monroe Mieh) News.

conjurer. The mystery was increased
when Torrini declared that he had full.
hiled his promise, and had only tested
the superiority of the chronometer.
The next day the Pope sent him a
rich diamond snuff.box, with thanks for
the pleasure his performance had af.
forded. His fame was now at its height.
Attracted by the news of his wonderful
exhibition, crowds focked to see the
magician who had accomplished such
marvels. They did not, however, have
the qualification of witnessing the famous
trick of the" broken WATCH" for the
expense OF undertaking an experiment
winch could never again be repeated
under such fave rable auspices, would be
warranted only by the circumstances
which originally brought together the
Pope and the conjurer.-Appleton's

How the World viii End-A Fearful
Look Ahead.

| Pianets are continually integrating
diffused materials which they encounter
in their progress through space, and it
has been estimated that the earth adds
to itself nearly one hundred and fifty
billions of such meteoric particles every
year. Secondly, it has been proved that
every planet must be slowly losing a
part of its molar motion of gravitation.
The effect of tidal waves, which are
caused by the gravitation of LIQUID to.
ward other planetary bodies, is to retard
diurnal rotation; and, in fact, the ter.
restrial day is heightened by reason of
the friction of the tides, and is destined
in the remote future sot give abou, 1856
hours between sunrise and sunset,
The earth is also losing molecular mo.
ton by radiation. That some terrestrial
heat is lost without compe asation-and
very slowly, of course-can hardly be
doubted; and for the state of things
thus untimely to be produced we NAV
find parallel in the present condition
Of the moon. That appears to afford
an example of the universal death which
in an inconceivably distant future awaits
the entire solar system. If along with
the dissipation Of the molar and mole
cular motions the planets are also losing
angular velocity, this loss of motion will
ultimately result in their integration
with the sun. Of two facts which bear
upon the subject, one familiar to all
students of science) is the observed re.
tardation of Encke's comet by the re.
sistance of the medium through which
it moves.
The other, which, so far as l know,
has not hitherto been mentioned, is that
all the planets are nearer the sun than
they ought to be, according to Bodies
law, the variation being most conspicu-
GUS, as might be expected, in the case
Of Neptune. 1t is at least worthy of
notice that the discrepancy is such as
might have been caused by slow dimi.
mutton of the angular velocities of the
planets. Another fact, that the inter
planetary spaces are filled with matter,
and that, consequently, all planetary
bodies rushing through them must meet
with resistance and lose momentum,
proves that immense momentum will be
eaten up by the resisting force.
This lo,s of tagential momentum must
bring all the planets into the sun. As
the the planet slowly draws near the
sun its lost tangential momentum is re.
placed, and somewhat more than re.
placed, by the added velocity due to the
increased grayitative force exerted by
the sun at the shorter distance. At the
last the planet must strike the sun with
tremendous force. The heat generated
by the earth and the sun alone in such
q collision would suffice TO produce a
temperature of nearly 5000, 900 degrees
centigrade. or course disintegration
would Immediately follow, and the next
stage is the dissipation of the whole into
pebula.-PreE John Fisks.

Fattening Cattle Quickly or Slowly.

There appears no room fer question.
ing the fact that an animal fattened
quickly makes finer eating than an ami
NAL which has been fattened slowly, OF
which has remained fat for some time.
Tho meat in such cases is sweeter and
juicier, but whether it possesses any
more nutriment is not quite so clear.
There are many people who have had
the privilege of partaking Of the flesh
of prize animals, which had been main
tanned in high condition for a long
time, and they have generally reported
the flesh as hard and tough and proba-
bly, they did not judge it as harshly as
they would have done had they pur-
chased the same 81 cut" from the near.
est butchers stall.
Aside from the matter of quality,
there is q question of economy which is
we'll worth considering. An animal re-
quires certain amount of food daily to
sustain life and supply heat and waste
of tissues. 1t is only the excess of food
over these requirements Of nature which
goes to make fat or increase flesh. A
great deal more food will be required to
make one hundred pounds increase in
the weight of az animal, if thirty days
are taken for it, than il, the feeding
operations are confined to twenty days
and so on. There is W ere many make
. grave mistake. Animals in course Of
preparation for the shambles should
not be stinted in feed. They should be
fed on all they will eat and assimilate
properly. An the more an animal will
eat and properly assimilate in a given
time, the more profitable he will be for
feeding purposes, other things being
equal. The money in feeding is all made
by " fencing" animals to the utmost,
whenever their preparation for the
shambles has been once undertaken

Brussels Lace.

1t is easy to understand why Brussels
lace is 80 costly, when we reflect that
the finest specimens of it is SO compli.
Gated as to require the labor of seven
persons on one piece, and each operative
is employed at distinct features OF the
work. The thread used is;of exquisite
fneness, which is spun in dark, under.
ground rooms, where it is sufficiently
moist to prevent the thread from sepa
rating. 1t is so delicate as scarcely to
be seen, and the room is 30 arranged
that the light admitted shall fall upon
the work. 1t is such material that il
renders the genuine Brussels ground SC
costly. On a piece of Valenciennes mol
two inches wide, from two hundred to
three hundred bibbins are sometimes
used and for larger with as many as
eight hundred on the same piece.

The Fashions.
FOR THE LADIES.

A newly imported fabric is blacl
silk. brocade with velvet, price SIG pc
yard.
The sheffield" handkerchief is a hal
handkerchief of silk trimmed witt
fringe. 1t is worn close about the neck
Earrings are large and heavy, the de
signs still being large hoops.
Gold trimming for black dresses is :
late Parisian novelty.
The long-worn sacques for breakfas
Jackets have given way to navy blu.
blouse waists. with wide rolling collar.
Wide-band bracelets are worn outside
Of the long gloves for evening wear.
A small cape, with narrow pointed
hood attached, is worn over the wrap:
while riding. This is made of navy blue
cloth with gold trimmings. The hood
serves as protection to the back OF the
neck and ears, and also to the hat OF
bonnet in case of storm.
Sleeveless basques of velvet, satin and
silk are pretty and stylish.
Small neck scarfs of camel's hair are
seen. Price $50.
Satin trimmings are among "the
things that were."
A black velvet basque can be t, ans.
formed into the most stylish of street
garments by ornamenting it with silk
braiding, and adding a cape richly EN-.
broidered and trimmed with lace.
Plaid goods are no longer used, ex-
cept for children.
Gathered ruff1es are much fuller than
they have been of late, and are finished
with a roll blind.stitched.
The striped imitation India shawl is
used for travelling.
Trimming velvets are displayed in all
the new shades. They range in price
from So to IS per yard.
1t is now fashionable for brides to
dress in colors.
Roman scarf sashes continue TO be
highly fashionable, and young ladies
from Paris tell us they are all the rage.
GENrLExEN's FASHIONS.
Many gentlemen have pockets made
in the sleeves Of their overcoats, where.
in lady may keep her hand warm when
walking m-in-arm with them.
Oyercoats are close sacques of moder-
ate length, though for young men Of
fanciful tastes loose sacques are seeD,
with over capes and flowing sleeves.
The latest neckties have q square
knot, with long, wide ends.
Shirtfronts are cut away on the lower
sides, to give better fit, and are made
without pleats, but Of two folds Of linen
with two or three cords stretched each
side Of the middle.
Silk hats have higher crowns than
those of last season. The "Strauss," a
hat Of soft gray or black felt, with high
crown and close rolling brim, is fa.
vorite.
Cuffs are deep and full, and are cut
away at the corners.
Two and three -buttoned gloves for
gentlemen is the latest encroachment
on ladies' fashions.
Vest buttons of dark blue stone, OF
of carved coral, are ugly novelties.
