John v esley as a Free Mason.

John Wesley as Methodist reform
er is we'll known the wide world over !;
but John Wesley as Free Mason is
not so we'll known to the public, and
yet the Christian Age, which is pub
lished in New York, publishes the
following statement, which shows that
Wesley was member of the order:
The decease and funeral of Hugh
Martin, OF Downpatr:ck, are reported
in the Downpatrick Reporter, which
states that Mr.. Martin was known
and respected as the father OF Mason
ry' in his district, he having been con-
nected with the craft for thirty-six
years, and more particularly with
lodge No. 357 Downpatrick in which
the Rev. John Wesley, the founder of
Methodism, was initiated into the Sc
crets of the order on October 80 1913.
About $50 Of the brethren attended
the funeral, and clergy of various de-
nominations were present. The Rev.
David Gordon delivered an address, in
which he referred to the deceased as a
Protestant of the true stamp, and stated
that but lew hours before MS death
Mr.. Martin spoke to himself Mr.. Cor
DOM of John Wesley, brother Ma
SON. whose enrolment in that craft, 1t
seems, took place in Downpatrick, in
the year 1888. His reference to the
great aud good missionary, however,
was chiefly in commentator ola broad
Catholic spirit which animated the
founder of Wesleyan Methodism."

AT Peoria, ILL.,, a few days ago, a girl
named Florence V. Lewis, committed suicide

of a slight trace Of African blood in her veins,
which was, however, scarcely perceptible.

THE TOBACCO CROPS.

Considerable anxiety is felt by the
trade in anticipation of a short yield of
the plant, which seems to rank next to
breadstuffs. Prices are going up, and
after the large foreign demand is sup
piled, there will be a shortage for home
consumption. The Virginia, Kentucky,
Missouri and Louisiana tobaccos, are
chiefly made into chewing tobaccos.
Virginia is the best, and Missouri leaf
ranks second. Connecticut raises the
best domestic cigar tobacco, and next
in quality is grown on the Big Flats of
New York State.
The United States consumes 79, $50
tons for chewing, and 1850 tons for
snufiirg. Last year we used 1,332, 246,-
900 cigars.

barley is not more extensively grown.
Too many risks for the chance of n
success. I know of but one objection to
the growing of buckwheat, and that is,
that in all after crops on the same land
it becomes the worst of weeds, it being
next to impossible to rid the ground of
it without absorbing all the profit of
the crop in cultivation. For this rea-
SOL tenants are prohibited from sowing
it on the land, and few land owners
care to purchase the ticket hat draws
this large-sized elephant. 1 learn that
it has been largely grown in the south
ern part of the State, and it may be
that some system is there adopted
which obviates this difficulty. Perhaps
sone subscriber, who is thoroughly ex-
perienced in the growing and harvest
ing of these crops, will give us a de-
tailed account of his methods. -Prairie

A correspondent of the Rural New
Yorker, who has tried the various reme-
dies for horses rubbing their tails, gives
the following. which We know to be
good when the rubbing is produced by
mere local causes connected with the
skin Without attempting to convince
the reader of the aus of itching names
and tails, or to persuade those who be-
lieve no remedy is good, without it is a
compound of many ingredients difficult
to obtain and more difficult to apply, 1
give the remedy and the manner of its
application, and verify believe that many
a horse owner will be pleased with the
result when he has tried its merits.
Take common kerosene and put in a
spring bottom tin can, such as can be
found in the tool-box of every moving
or reaping machine, or any carpenters
bench. or at any hardware store /; take
the itching tail in one hand and raise it
by the long hair, so that the small end
of the dock will lie the highest !; then
squirt the keorsene on the end Of the
dock. In a very brief time it will be
spread evenly all over the tail. Then part
the name, if also diseased, and put the
kerosene along the whole length. A
small quantity will do, as it spreads
readily and will reach every spot. The
kerosene will dry off in a day or two,
and will do no harm, wen if the parts
are not washed. This, however, all
careful horsemen will do as a matter of
neatness, though it is not necessary. and
the tail will look no worse than if no
application had been made. One or
two applications in every case, in
my experience, either cured or at least
have been attended with very satisfac-
tory results.

TAXING ADVANTAGE OF an ACCI-

French and English-whiie anchored
in port, were ~contending with each
other for the best display of sailorship,
SO that the captain of each vessel de
termined to send alOft an active sailor
to perform some deed of grace and
daring. The Dutch captain sent a
Dutchman, the French a Frenchman,
and the English an Trishman. The
Dutchman stood on the top Of themain-
mast, with his arm extended. The
Frenchman then went aloft and ex-
tended both hands. Now the Irishman
thought if he could stand on the main
mast with a leg and an arm extended he
would be declared the most daring
sailor. Nimbly he clambered aloft
until he reached the highest point;
then he carefully balanced him
self on both feet, extending
his right hand with graceful
motion. Then he threw out his left
left leg until it came in line with his
right arm. In doing SO he i~ngloriously
lost his balance and fell from the mast,
crashing through the rigging toward the
deck. The various ropes against which
he came in contact broke his fall, but
his velocity was not too great to prevent
his grasping a rope attached to the
mainyard. To this he hung for two
seconds; then dropping lightly to the
deck. landed safely on his feet. Fold

all were in the programme, he glanced
toward the rival ships and ~joyously ex-
