BANDED FARMERS.

In some counties in Kansas there are
as high as twenty-five Oranges.
At late meeting Of the plow manu-
facturers at Chicago, the following rcso-
luton was passed:
The Boston Grange, which was decid-
ell not - be in good standing by the Mt
tional Grange at St. Louis, havedoc!arcd
themselves independent of the National
Order, adopted a declaration Of princi-
cles, and invite other organizations to
unite with them as Independent Grang-
ers.
We receive regularly, as an exchange,
the Southern Agricultural, the official
organ of the Changers of Kentucky, cd
tied by Mr.. T. J. Key, State Deputy of
the Order of Patrons of Husbardry in
Kentucky. 1t is filed with interesting
agricultural and horticultural matter I;
matters pertaining the Oranges, ETC., and
we ch ,erfully recommend it US a suitable
paper for the farmers of Lincoln.
Rssolved, That We viii .ell no plows
to Farmers Clubs or Oranges, except at
retail prices, but recommend our agents
/ in all localities to sell to parties wishing
to buy largely for cash, at rates rs much
reduced as the expense incidental to DO
ing business will permit.
The above resolution and endorsement
of the manufacturers at the meeting
above referred TO, drew forth unanimous
~ the following resolution from Hern'
don Grange, KY, and also from the
Grange at Georgetown, which shows
that the farmers will not be dictated to
by the manufacturers
Resolrei, That We will meet as bosi
we can the situation forced upon US by
the manufacturers of p!ows at late
meeting held in Chicago, and hereby
pledge ourselves to buy none of thciT
manufactured articles, either rom them
or their agents, unless they recede from
he --',.ll1tioa above --.errcd TO:
The constitution of the Patrons Of
Husbandry explicitly lays down the rule
that none bu. persons eagged in asri
cultural pursuits are eligible TO be AL
mitted into Grange Being "h',resi-
ed" only in agriculture viii rot make a
person eligible to membership.

LADIES DEPARTMENT.


A return to positive colors is made
manifest in the earliest importaiions OF
Spring goods; the sickly hucs, such as
peacock and olive, will gradually disap-
pear, and our eyes once more look on,
and delight in, the clear grays. browns
and blues Of ten years ago. IL is pre-
dic,c.l that mahogany brown will be the
most fashionable color for Spring wear,
although dark Napoleon blue is (and it
II thought will continue to be) extensive
y worn.
Ladies Whose tastes run in such
channel) arc to wear a sort Of feminine
dress-coat, !. c., large basque with the
hack extended in the swallcw-tailed fash
ion, resembling very closely the full
dress-cent worn by. gentlemen. They
are mostly double breasted, though fas-
teuci by one button, audspreading away
In regular Ia gcaf'emm style. Sleeve
less basques still continue the rage, in
fact Il would be hard to tell what styles
are not fashionable, unless it is those
sloped short on the hips, and pointed in
front and behind, which fashion now de-
crecs as pa.sec. The style of having the
sleeves different from the basque is quite
as much worn now as last Summer, or,
in other words, when the dress is COM
posed of two shades, the darker is used
for the basque, while the sleeves are
made of the lighter; or, if the suit Is
made of two materials, such as silk and
wooden, the basque is usually made Of
the WOODEN, like the upper skirt, and the
sleeves of silk to correspond with the
lower skirt
Black silk dresses will evidently re.
main the standard fabric, the skirts being
trimmed a good deal, though with less
extrnvagant profusion than formerly.
The trimmings are jet GALLON, jet fringe,
lace and various arrangements of the
elk, The comfortable and pretty coat
sleeve is to he abandoned for the more
elaborate, pulled and slashed ones. There
nre various modes of trimming these
sleeves, some being puilvd from the wrist
II the armhole, separated only by nil
liners fold and finished with double
ruff; Others having but a single arm
hole puff, while another hdlfhowine
sleeve has the entire seam cut in points,
showing putting Of silk between the
points, and with fall Of lace around
I. the wrist. Over-skirts are again very
fashionable. being attached to all lowe
skirts, thereby forming part of thei
: trimming. The rule, as used by th'
modistes, this season, for gathering

skirt.

turned over points. will also be used. a

muslin neckties, so fashionable last Sum

The editor Of the HorReHturisi, noticing,
come time since, the unusual luxuriance Of 9
friends Gala lilies, asked the secret Of her
magnificent success She replied that in June
she takes the callAs out Of doors, and turns the
pots containing them over on their SdeS under
. tree, or In some shady place, and there che
leaves them through the hot summer months,
giving them no attention Whatever. OF course
the old leaves die and fall Of, and the earth IN
the pots bake into the consistency Of brick; one
would think such harsh trestment would be
the death Of flower; but, on the contrary, the
Gala likes Il. In September she brings the
pots IN, and begins to give the plants water.
a very short time Sufaces 70 start them into
growth. Az soon q the leaves appear, she
makes the water quite warm. The result IL,
that her eallRs are superior 10 any ever saw
befores She boasts Of having larger flowers
than any one else, and judging nom the Gizs OF
the half matured bVd saw, she has founda-
ton for saying 30. The tells me that her eAllas
are never without flowers through the winter,
often as many as four or Ave open at once She
never removes the nsW ones which form about
the old plant, but, as they grow, ShifB the
plants into larger pots.

attempted RAPE UPON A SMALL
... COL ORFD GIRL

ATTEMPTED RAPE UPON A SMALL
COLORED GIRL.
About $50 o'clock on Saturday evening, as
Ella Ringgold, colored, aged fifteen years. was
walking Aloug NJ street, she was aceosted by
William Shelton, also colored, aged fOrty-fve
years. After some conversation had passed
between the two, Shelton took possession Of an
umbrella that the girl bad in her hand, and
told her If she wanted 1t she would haYe 70 fol
low him into the Office Of the coal yard kept By
Mr.. Taylor Campbell, which she did, wishing
possession of the umbrella. When near the
Office he pulled her inside and attempted to
commit rape on her person, but was not sue
cessful, owing to the cutlery made by the girl,
which had the effect Of attracting several peo-
pie to the yard, among whom was her father,
who, after hearing the fscts in the case, sWore
out a warrant before Justice Reese for the
arrest of Shelton, and had the document
placed in the hands Of Officers Mari and ssfell,
who made the arrest short time after, but
not before they had some difficulty, as Shelton
at the time when the arrest was made was ac-
companied by two or three ferocious dogs, who
gave the officers considerable trouble while
they we're performing their duty. Shelton was
locked up in Lieutenant Eeklof7s station, and
will be brought before Judge Smell this morn
ing for hearing. He is said TO be pretty
hard customer, and If this attempt to rape the
girl is proven on him the chances are that he
will suffer the full penalty of the Law for the
punishment Of such q crime.
