The Troy Chief says: Would it rot
pay Kansas farmers to devote more at
tention to fall wheat? II is generally
looked upon rs failure in Kansas; but
VIC cannot see that it IS more SO Than
spring wheat. When it docs come
through safely, it generally makes a
good crop, and is rarely injured BY the
chinch bug. BY putting it in at ths
right time, and in tho right manner, We
believe it could, ms rule be successful.
The right time is not after freezing
weather has set in and the right manner
is not to sow il broadcast and let the
wind cover it. Put, it in carly, and
drill it in. We know but little about
farming, bat this is the opinion we have
heard expressed by old wheat raisers in
other status, aud it looks reasonable. II
farmers in Kansas would work their
crops as those OF the casa arc compelled
to work theirs, tho result would aston
ish them. 1t sp0iIs one to live in coun-
try where all they have to do is to put IN
tho seed, and the crops will tend them
selves.

Some three month since an item :p'
Feared in several of the daily papers
in reference to tho accidental shooting
Of a young lady ut her home, ON Fol
som street, near Second. Tho facts arc
that two young gentlemen called upon
the young lady, whose name Is Nct:ic
Holmes, and when about 10 depart one
of them mistook his friends Ovcrcoat
for his own and put it on. In the peck
ct of the ovcrcOat he found pistol,
which he drew in u playful manner,
and while attcmptinr to cock it the ham
MGR, slipped and tho weapon was OK
plodcd. The ball entered the arr: OF
Miss Holmes JUS, above the elbow.
She tainted, and the noise Of the cxplos'
ion brought the whole f:mily into the
paror. At first it was thought she WAS
killed, buta physician was called in and
the ball was subsequently extracted,
aud the young lady was soon after able
to move around as lively as ever. The
yonns man whose carclcssness caused
the accident called frequently ut tho
house to see how che was getting along,
and in time h. cut his friend out, as
the saying is, and he became engaged 10

started down San Bruno road, but while
making one of tho numerous turns the
buggy was capsixcd and the occupants
thrown Ou:. Miss Holmes fell upon tho
sido of the bank and rolled down SO
close TO the waters edge that her clothes
were saturated. Her escort, who was
not injured badly, succeeded in carrying
her up the bank, and afterwards to I;
house about q half u mile distant. Here
it was asccrtained that her ]. fl leg was
broken, and that she had rccci:cd Other

rode into the Mission, where the service,

Making a Few Remarks.

Mr.. Stone, a we'll known and excellent
Christian gentleman, belonging to one
of the Murray Hill churches in New
York city, was up in the country in the
summer, and learning that an evening
prayer meeting was in progress at the
village church walked in and took a
seat in tho back part of'thc room. The
brother in the chair conducting the
meeting, observing the stranger, left his
scat, and coming to Mr.. Stone said to
him:
"What is your name
s.My name is Stone"
"Wherc are you from?"

Stone. with becoming humility. The
presiding genius, satisfied with tho an
swcrs to his catcchism, returMcd To his
elevated scat, and at the end OF the
hymn arose and said:
"Will brother Stone, from New York,
favor us with few rcmarks"
Mr.. Stone, willing to do what he could,
and having often been told by the New
York Observer to do in the country as
he would in the city, rose and made
few practical observations TO the best OF
his ability. No sooner had he sat down
than the presiding elder rose and said

organ for the German Lutheran church

by parties that understand organ music,
Il grand success. MIR. kuehne is
ps organ builder by trade, and
has served an apprenticeship OF seven
years with ono Of the best organ builders
in Europe. lie intends to devote all bis
time to organ building and melodson
piano tuning. The people OF Cairo have so
often been disappointed by parties coming
here and claiming to be competent men
in tuning aud repairing, that Mr..
Kuehne did not dare to ask the patron
age Of the people before be could give
proof of wha. he could do. All reference
no gives 10 the organ built by him for the
German Lutheran church, and any parties
interested will after seeing snd hearing
the above named organ, feel satisfied tina,
they cannot trust their instru.
ments to better hands than his.
He now wishes to solicit the patronage Of
the citizens Of Cairo, and they can rest
assured that ho will give satisfaction in
evsry particular. Terms liberal.
