MANAGEMENT OF GEEsE.-Three or
four geese to one gander are all that are
advisable says the Poultry World, and a
less number even, is preferable. They
commence layingin April, though some.
times not until May, and require for a
nest a box about three feet square, with
n few inches of soil in at the bottom.
Soft meadow hay forms a good lining
for It.. Each goose requires a nest,
otherwise the eggs must be gathered
daily.
Alter the goose has laid her litter
from ten to tilteen), she will arrange
her nest In sitting-Order and line 1t with
feathers. If the eggs have been taken
from her, they should now be returned
and she allowed to cover them. AS the
process of incubation is of considerable
length-from twenty.eight to thirty
two days-she must be encouraged to
leave the nest often for food and eXer-
else. A supply of clean water and
vegetable food, raw and cooked, should
be given to keep her in a healthy state.
An occasional visit to a pond of water
can do no harm, provided it is not pro-
longed until the eggs become chilled.

VEGETABLES COOKED WITH SALT
Vegetables which are boiled in clear
water are quite different in taste and
smell, and particularly IN their degree
of tenderness, from what they are when
cooked in water and salt. This may be
especially remarked in the case Of
onions, which, when cooked in pure
distilled water, are comparatively taste
less and Odorless, but which, when
cooked in sailed water, possess a quite
different, somewhat sngary flavor and
a decided onion smell. The reason of
the difference is that salt diminishes
the solvent qualities Of water so that
more of the soluble substances of vege.
tables are retained through cooking
them In salt water. Vegetables are also
rendered more tender by the salt, and
their proper taste is often improved.
Water containing 1923 of its weight of
salt is much better adapted for boiling
vegetables than clear water.

Knowing Dogs.

The Austin (Nev.) Reveille says
Willie Burgess, who drives team OF
sixteen oxen, hauling wood, has a valu-
able assistant in an intelligent dog. The
animal is of no particular breed. but
possesses remarkable sagacity. 1t
knows exactly what position the team
should keep and how the oxen should
90, and runs by their side and barks at
them and bites their heels when they go
wrong. The cattle seem to understand
what the barks and bites mean, and
obey them as intelligently as they do
the commands and prods with the goad
given by their human driver.
The sight of dog driving an OK team
is not new one to the writer OF this.
In the early days Of White Pine there
was man engaged in hauling ore down
from Treasure Hill to what is now
Hamilton, who used for that purpose
two OK teams, one OF which he drove
himself and the other was driven by his
dog, a large yellow cur. The road
wound with many curves down steep
mountain, but all that the man found it
necessary to do was to attend to the
brakes of both teams and guide the
front team, while the oxen were kept IN
the road by the dog, which gave its
orders BY barks and enforced them by
bites,

Fight with an American Lion.

The Kansas City (Mo.) Times says
There is now on exhibition i'll the Lin

very large and ferocious-l looking noun

ago in Hinsdale county, southwest Of

partner named Henry Shane We're en-
gagged in running pack train OF burros,
or small Mexican asses, over tbs noun
tains to the mines in the San Juan coun-
try. They had just gone into camp. one
night in Antelope Park when the hon
made it's appearance. 1t appears that
one of the burros had given out from
exhaustion and had been left standing
alone in the snow a short distance from
camp. The animal, although almost
unable to move, suddenly gave evidence
Of great terror and alarm and commenced
to bray. Mr.. Shane started out OF camp
to see what the trouble was. As soon as
he left the circle of the campfire large
mountain lion sprang upon him from a
projecting rock above him, and bore him
to the earth. His partner, Mr.. Minor,
saw the animal spring. and called at once
to Shane to keep still. The lion stood
growing over the prostrate man, with
it's two fore feet on his breast. Minor
dropped the ropes he was engaged in
coiling and seized Winchester rife and
fred. The animal dropped and Shane
scrambled to his feet and assisted in
despatching the ferocious beast. He
was hurt slightly about the breast where
the claws had penetrated the clothing.
The lion is but poorly stuffed, but it is
quite curiosity. It resembles very
large cat, and would measure perhaps
seven feet from the nose to the tip OF the
tail. It is the largest and best specimen
of the Rocky Mountain lion species ever
brought to this city.

The Telephene as an Aid TO Biyers.

The Cincinnati Enquirer says " Mr..
John L. Guyre, the submarine diver,
with the assistance of Mr.. J. Y. Shiras,
solicitor for Bells telephone, made some
experiments with the telephone under
water. Divers have always eagerly de-
sired reliable means of communication
with those above them. Various plans
have been devised, and all abandoned
save the first and long-tried one-that
of signalling by pulls at the ife-rope.
One very successful plan, save of ex-
pense, was to interpose a reservoir,
large enough to admit man in it, be-
tween the diver and the air-pump.
Those above spoke to the man in the
reservoir, and he repeated it to the
diver. This plan operated well. The
sound was conveyed 30 distinctly that
the man in the reservoir could hear the
divers hair rubbing against his helmet.
This was abandoned on account of its
expense. The telephone test was made
in the river where Che Covington water
works pipes are being laid. The small
er telephone, the one used for receiving
was placed within the dress, lying upon
the Divers chest and near his mouth.
This enabled him to get his mouth
near enough to talk, but was very dis
advantageous for hearing. Insulated
wires connected this instrument with
the one above. Mr.. Guyre descended
to a depth of eighteen feet. Every
thing he said was distinctly heard above.
He found some difficulty in hearing
what was said, as the air, passing out of
the helmet with kissing and bubbling
noise, somewhat drowned the voice of
the telephone. This will be easily
remedied .by making a telephone Of
such special shape that it will be near
the divers ear, and removing the air
valve to some point in the dress further
from the ear. Nh. Guyre considers its
use fixed fact, and is delighted in be-
ieving his perilous business will be
made less dangerous.

Russian Editors and Sub. Editors.

The anecdotes regarding the censor
ship Of the press in Russia haye just had
the crown placed on them in Moscow.
Here the 7eatrailnaia Gazette was held
to have committed some offence, and ON
officer of the Press Bureau sent to the
Office of the paper. No one was present
but the publisher, who was at once
sternly summoned TO fetch the editor.
The publisher left the room, and returned
in minute or two with large pair of
scissors, saying:
"Here, Sir, is the editor"
The officer was rather Disconnected,
but soon recovered himself, and ex-
claimed more sternly than ever
"No nonsense, fetch me the sub
editor"
Again the publisher departed, and
again returned this time with pot OF
paste and brush.
"These, sir," he said, care the sub
editors"
In consequence all four delinquents
we're arrested, and publisher, editor, and
the two sub-editors marched off to the
police station to answer for their con-
duct.

Lynched by q Texas Mob.

Some three weeks ago says the Hous-
ton (Texas) Age, Deputy Sheriff VIII
liams, of Walker county, arrested an
escaped negro convict, and was carrying
him back to Huntsville to place him In
the penitentiary. While on the way
back, the negro requested permission TO
stop for some purpose, and the request
was granted by Deputy Williams. The
handouts were removed from the negro,
and as quick as lightning he grabbed
the officer by the throat, and seized his
pistol, with which he shot the officer
twice in the breast, and with q knife he
then cut the wounded mans throat and
left him for dead.
The horse of the officer returned home
without his master, which excited the
suspicious of friends, and they immedi-
ately set out to ascertain what was the
matter. They soon found the bleeding
victim, who, despite the attempt OF the
negro, did not die, and from him they
learned Of the deadly assault.
A posse was quickly organized by me
citizens, and after a long search the
murderous convict was captured. Pre-
parations were made to make short WORK
of him. He was informed that ne had
to die, and if he desired to say anything
to LAY it at once, and be then confessed
that he had murdered the negro Henry
Pearson at Spring Station and fed.
Pearson is the same negro for whose
death Hero Dalton was tried beiore
Justice Brashear and virtually acqultteai.
The negro was then strung up to fee
and hung. His body was left hanging
to the tree.

ming and Fighting while Wounded.
Deputy Sheriff Edsall, of Chemung
county, N. Y, was on his way to Roch-
ester on an Erie railway train, with
Mike Murphy, criminal who had been
sentenced to the penitentiary. When
two miles west of Kanonah, and while
the train was running at the rate of
thirty miles en hour, Murphy jumped
from the car. The train was stopped
as soon as possible. The officer went
back, expecting to find the mangled
body of his prisoner. He found the
ground torn up for twenty-five feet along
the track where Murphy had tumbled
and ploughed through it. There was
blood on the ground, but Murphy was
nowhere to be seen. Some men work
ing near said they saw Murphy jump
of, and that he had picked himself up
and told them the conductor put him
off. He had started across the fields on
run. He was sighted by the officers
nearly mile away. The sheriff started
in pursuit. Murphy plunged into Five
Mile creek and swan across, and ran up
along the stream. The sheriff crossed
the stream in the same way, and gained
rapidly on the fugitive. When within
pistol shot he fired at Murphy, who
then jumped into the watea a second
time and crossed back again, and con.
tinued up the stream. The officer swan
the creek again. After running half q
mile Murphy again swan the creek, fol-
lowed by the sheriff.
Murphy then struck off into the fields
and took the Hammondsport road, which
he finally left and made for thick piece
of woods. In crossing rough piece of
ground Murphy fell. He made two
efforts before he could get up. The
sheriff was then 80 nearly exhausted
that he was unable to go much faster
than walk. Murphy reached the
woods followed by pistol balls. The
sheriff had noticed blood at intervals on
the trail. When the officer got into the
woods Murphy was nowhere to be seen.
The sheriff walked in, when he was soon
almost stunned by a blow across his
neck from club, and, before he could
turn, he was siezed by Murphy, who
began to shower blows on the officers
head. The latter managed to free him.
self, and made an effort to use his revol-
yer, but Murphy knocked it out of his
hand, and tried to get the weapon him.
self. A struggle then began between
the two men for possession OF the pistol.
By lucky chance the officer got the
club Murphy had dropped, and, spring
ing back, he struck him a blow that
felled him to the ground. He then
choked Murphy until the latter was
forced to beg for mercy. Edsall secured
the pistol and marched Murphy in front
of him to Kanonah station, threatening
to shoot him if he turned or ran. MUIR
phys wounds were in his legs, pieces
of flesh having been torn ont when he
jumped from the train. How he man
aged to run four miles, swimming a swift
stream three times, and then offer resis-
tance to his pursuer, is wonderful.
