An Interesting church Meeting.

There were some very exciteng oc-
currences at a religious service held
neer Big Spring, lud., on recent Sun
day evening. The exercises had Just
begun, when some one announced
that the horses of the worshipers,
which were supposed TO ne safely tied
outside of the building, had been cut
loose. a general scramble ensued, but
alter the horses had been caught and
hilched agaiu, quiet was restored.
Then one of the congregation missed
his pocketbouk, and announced the
fact aloud. y second period of excite
ment followed. The door was locked
aud every one la the room was called
upon to submit to an investigation
One young man present was just
enough intoxicated to be quarrelsome,
and refused to let any one search him.
The rest OF the party insisted on their
right, however, and after examining
every pocket in his coat, vest and pant
aloons, punished him for his resistance
to authority by pitching him rather
rudely out of doors. The youth i'm
mediately hunted up some boon COM
panions, and led them to an assault
upon the sanctuary. A great many
hard words passed between the congre-
CATION and the mob, the former being
armed with billets of stove wood and
other improvised weapons, and the lat.
ter with pistols. After numerous
threats had been exchanged and a
great deal of bad blood reused, the
clergyman succeed in procuring a
truce to hostilities, and the services
We're concluded in due form. AS o
sequel to the whole affair-and one
which may not be without its moral

Sheep are underyalued by the mass
lsnd-bOlders as a means Of keeping up the
fertility OF the soil and putting money into
the pockets Of farmers, The moment ore
begins to talk of sheep husbandTy, the list
ener or reader begins to look for wool
quotations, rs if wool was all that yields
profit from sheep. One might as well look
for wheat quotations alone when there Is
talk about the profit of farming.
Sheep on a farm yield both wool and
mutton. They multiply with great Tapidi-
~. They are the best of farm scavengers,
" cleaning field as no other class OF ami
mails will. They give back to the farm
more in proportion TO what they fake from
it than any other animal, and distribute it
better with view 20 the future fertility of
the soil Prove this There is no need Of
proof to those who have kept sheep, and
know their habits and the profits they
yield To prove it 10 those who have not
the experience, it is necessary they should
try the experiment or accept the testimony
of an experienced shepherd
But the.live stock Of a farm should not,
necessarily, be sheep, exclusively. Cattle,
horses. swine, have their respective places
in the farm economy. How many Of each
10 keep is a question that locality, charac-

be forgotten, that the more stock a man
keeps on his farm the more grass, ana il
ought to, and, if properly managed, it will
grow. The rates Of increases will CORES

The International Railroadbill, sub
stituted for that vetoed by CIV. Coke,
has become law, and the Company
now owns $1,000 square miles of
the richest land, in the finest eli
mate in the world, The Company, its
road and land are exempt from taxa
ton for twenty-five years, and it thus
happens that Texas interwnes aud
substitutes for Tom Scotps Southern
Pacific a railway from St.. louis,
through Austin, to LAREDO, on the
Rio Grande, and thence to San Bias,
on the Pacific coast.
This enormous land grant make the
international perhaps the richest cor.
poratlon in the South, aud its road
soon becomes the highway for an
enormous traffic between nine nil
lions of Mexicans and forty mill ons
of North Americans, to say nothing oil
the fact that each ship from Naugiski
or Canton for san Francisco is borln on
ocean currents and trade winds toSan
Bias before it turns northward to the
commercial capital of the Paific
coast. There is no special need, just
now, for the acceptance of rom

Sow Clover Seed EnrIr.

Do not delay securing a supply of clover
seed, and sow it Immediately. 1t is
useless now to wait for a decline in the
price. If yOu would have the plants get
good start, the seed must be sown early.
Now. at any time when there is light
fall OF snow, is the best time to sow it. 1t
sometimes happens, but not often, that
after the seed has terminated. a heaving
frost, the sun and drying wind. will kill
the tender plants. If sown early, the
chances are that the plants will grow
readily, as the spring rains will soften the
ground, so that the clover roots can pene-
trate it deep enough to get well establish
ed before the hot, dry weather sets in.
The following preparation Of the seed
previous to sowing is highly recommend
ed to US by one of the best farmers in the
State, and is worth trying Put the seed
into tub and wet the whole thoroughly
without floating it, and mix it with TWEEN
ty-five pounds of dry land plaster (gyp-
SUM. or sufficient to dry it properly, aud
SOW the usual quantity OF seed per acre.
The importance Of securing a good start
of clover can hardly be Overestimated.
Therefore, SOW the seed early-the earlier
the better.-Rrdl WOrld.
