TIC T"ia the Northern People the State
HOUSE was Open to Any One-Rut His
Order, Appended, says He Lied.
After the Packard forces had massed in the
House ION December 20, 1851 and when
that building was
BARRIoApED AND GUARDED,
1t was said that orders had been issued to pre-
vent ingress. except to q favored few.
At that time Kellogg was questioned by sew
eral correspondents OF Northern journals then
here as to the existence Of such orders, and he
denied that any such orders had been issued or
that any one was prevented from entering the
building.
How lar that denial "holds water" may be
seen from the following, which was pulled out OF
that "vein of metal" yesterday by DEMOCRAT

ALOFT.

A Nevada church boasts of a spire
which is singularly ornamented by a
fountain in full play. A large iron pipe
is carried up through the steepIe and up
the large cross surrounding the same.
The pipe then takes the form of the
cross, behind which it is hidden, and
from holes perforated at proper intervals
the jets IRE sent up. From the top of
the cross and from the end of each arm
large streams ascend to the height of
about twenty-five feet, and between
them are thrown up a great number of
smaller jets. The height of the top OF
the cross from the ground is one hundred
and seventy feet. The effect of the
fountain when the sun casts its colored
lights upon the spray is beautiful. This
novel fountain was not constructed for
mere ornament. It is intended for use,
in case of the breaking out of a large fire,
as a protection to the spire and roof of
the church. 1t is but the work of a
moment to turn on the water and drench
the spire. The height to Which the
water is thrown above the cross shows
the great force Of the water works of the
city.

same street with him lived a man
named Strother, for whom Col. Benton
had great contempt. While Stroller
wa standing on his front steps Benton
would say: You scoundrel, don't show
yourself inmypresence. You %vagabond,
don't dare to show yourself" Strother
challenged him, but Benton replied, that
he had promised his wife at the time of
his marriage to give up dueling. Strother
threatened a personal assault, but the
colonel was always armed to receive him.
When the Wing party thought they
could defeat Benton by giving their
votes to Gov. Boggs, Benton was still
elected. After the election, he invited
all parties to drink champagne, and
Boggs, in his obsequiousness> didup Ben
toms credentials, and, with great flourish,
presented them to him, remarking, "Col.
Benton, I will be glad 70 hear from you
at Washington" ayes, SIR" he thun-
dered, "you shall, sir" Poor Boggs
crept away greatly diminished.
The speaker alluded to the fact that
Benton's success was greatly due to the
excellent training of his mother.

Mea3sering Corn.

Please publish a correct rule for meas
uring corn in a wagon bed; also state
what is good for a horse with heaves.
B. P. WILLS.
You do not state whether the rule
desired is for corn in the ear or shelled
corn; but if for the latter, obtain the
number of cubic inches in the box, or so
much as is occupied by the corn then
divide that by 2150.42, the number of
cubic inches ~ a bushel or you can
first find the number of cubic feet, by
multiplying the length, breath and
depth, and then dividing the number of
cubic feet by seven and one fourth Tor
1924; because a bushel contains about
one and one-fourth cubic feet. Corn in
tine ear varies according to the varieties.
Of some it will take two bushel of ears
Others, one and a half bushels will yield
this amount. For heaves turn the ami
NAL cut to pasture whenever possible,
and in the winter give laxative food,
such as carrots, turnips and beets also
sprinkle hay and oats, and avoid dust
food Of all kinds. Sedatiyes may also
be given, such as digitalis, opium and
b~elladonna Occasionally. Arsenic in
doses of five grains daily, continued for
a month, is considered valuable medicine
for horses. T.
