ries. A single row of plants, set one
foot from the edge of the walk, will,
if properly cared for, give Il close Dor
der two feet wide the second year.
Draw line on each side after the run
ners begin to root, cut the edges
straight and even with the hoe, and
keep them so. You thus not only econ
omize space which might not other
wise be used, and make the garden at
tractive, but get your fruit where it
can be picked from the walks-which
if properly made, of coal ashes or
gravel, will always be dry, and very
convenient to use stool in. Two
walks thus bordered through the cen.
ter of even small garden, each way,
will give a family good supply of
this most delicious of fruits.

The Most Useful Remedies.

4 party of ten English medical men
were dining together not long ago,
when one of them inquired, if all
present were limited IN their practice
to the selection Of six pharmacop@ial
remedies, which would be chosen as
being the most useful, compound
drugs to be excepted. Each of the
party wrote the name of the six
drugs he would select, and handed
them to the doctor who asked the
question. On examining the ballots
it was found that a majority of the
votes y ere given in favor of opium,
quinine, and iron; between mercury
and iodide Of potassium they were
equally divided, as they were also be.
lween ammonia and ehloroform.

Instructions of U. s. Marshals for the COM
ing Elections

Instructions Of U. S. Marshals for the COM
Inc Elections.
The Attorney General has issued in.
struetions to United States Marshals, Tor
their direction in preserving the rights /
citizens at the coming general election. lie
says: g In elections at which mem
bers of the House OF Representatives are
chosen, which, by law, include elections at
which electors for President and Vice Presi-
dent are appointed, the United States secure
voters against whatever In general binders
or prevents thom from tie full exercise OF
the elective franchise, extending that care TO
registration lists, the act Of voting, and the
personal freedom and security OF the voter,
as well as against violence on account OF any
vote he may intend to give, as against con-
spiracY because OF any vote he NAV have al
ready given. The peace OF the United States,
therefore, which you are to preserve, and
whose violation you are to suppress, protects
among others the rights specified IN the last
paragraph, and any person who by force vio-
lat these rights breaks that peace, and rem
ders it your duty TO arrest him and suppress
any riots incident thereto, or that threaten
the integrity Of registration or election, to
the end that the will of the people in suck
election may be ascertained and take effect,
and that offenders may be brought be-
fore the court for punishment
AS chief executive officer OF the United States
in your districts you will be held responsible
or all breeches of the peace Of the United
States where diligence on your part might
have prevented, and for the arrest and Sc
curing OF all persons who violate the peace in
any OF the points above enunciated.
''ln this connection advise that you and
each Of your deputies, general and special,
have right to summon to your assistance in
preventing and quelling disorder every per-
son in the district above fifteen years Of age,
whatever may be their occupation, whether
civilians or not, and including the military
OF all denominations militia, soldiers or ma
rines-all of which are alike bound to obey
you. The fact that there organized military
bodies, whether Of State or United States,
under the immediate command of their own
officers, does not in any wise affect their legal
character as posse comitatus. | prefer to
quote the above statement OF the law upon
this point from an opinion by my predecessor
ex-Attorney General Cushing, because it thus
appears to have been well settled for many
wears

The Peer Of Satan Himself.

The st. Louis Globe-Democrat has a
letter from Kenseth Ark, detailing some
atrocities committed by the religious sect
called Cobbites, at place named Gum
Springs, White county 1t appears an old
man named Cobb rules the community and IS
regarded by his followers as Jesus and obeyed
accordingly.
short time since G.. d. Humphreys, Of
Searey, and Mr.. Blake, OF FL Paso, deter
mined TO ascertain the cause and clear up the
mystery. They therefore visited the locality,
and as they were passing a hut from which
issued the strange sounds, a man named
Doher, one of the Cobbites, accosted them
and said God wes in the hut and invited
them to enter and see him. They alighted
from their buggy and Humphreys was at once
seized by four men and Blake by four women.
Blake broke loose from his captors and ran
about one hundred yards, when, on looking
back, he saw the men cutting Humphreys to
pieces with long knives. He fastened to
town and reported the case and a party OF
citizens at once started for the scene of the
murder. On arriving at the Springs they
found Humphreys killed and his head cut Off
and stuck ON a fence paling A boy riding
by was compelled to get of his horse, bow to
the head three times and utter prayer A
parley ensued between the leader OF the citi-
zens, T. c. Black, and Dohor the Cobbite,
during which the latter took Humphreys
head from the fence, several times shook it
back and forth, and replace it on the paling, at
the same time ordering the citizens to leave.
At last Doher and his crowd advanced to
Black and his party in menacing manner,
and the latter fred on them, killing two men
and wounding another. The remaining four
men four women and two children were ar
rested and taken to Searey. There was great
excitement among the people and lynching
was threatened. Next day preliminary ex-
animation was held and all the parties releas-
ed. They talked necessarily about their re-
ligion and there seemed little doubt that they
were all crazy from theeffeets Of religious ex-
element and starvation,

Heavy and Light Oats Compared.

NJ. Grandeur, French chemist, has
ascertained that oats of light weight
are of equal value, pound for pound,
with those that weigh heavier in pro-
portion to measure. A French postal
contractor tried a similar experiment
in practical way. Out of 800 horses
in his stables he selected two teams of
10 each, in all respects alike, and un.
dergoing the same kind of work. One
team was fed for six months OH the
lightest oats that could be procured,
weighing II pounds to the hectolitre,
and the other was fed for a similar Pc
Rod of time on the heaviest oats,
weighing III per hectolitre, at the end
of the period of observation no differ
ence could be detected in the appear
ance of the two teapls, the horses be-
ing all in excellent condition and in
good working order. The oats, were
of course, fed by weight and not by
measure.
We rather expect, had the oats been
fed by measure instead of weight the
result would have been very different.

The Great Sale of Coal in New York City.
There was a great auction sale of
coal in New York, on the Goth, and there was
great anxiety and excitement on the part Of
dealers in consequence. $3.50 was thought
to be the lowest price it would go, but when
prices went down to 1915 there was almost
panic among coal companies. The first lot
sold was 10000 tons, at 800. After the
bids declined to the lowest limit reached, an
upward movement begun, and the sale closed
by sale OF q, 900 tons OF egg at 1912. The
coal companies in Pennsylvania say that
mining must be stopped unless reductions in
oil and wages are made.
