very old, it is sometimes impossible to
put fat on them, and then it becomes
question if the feed eaten does not cost
more than the sheep are worth. If so,
the proper course is obvious. Linseed
oil cake-meal good for fattening sheep,
along with seme clover hay.
TIE mooted question as to whether toads
eat bees has been settled by M. Brunei,
writer in La Nature, who asserts that,
going into his garden one day, just be-
fore storm, he observed the bees crowd
ing into their hives. Near one of the
hives was toad which every now and
then rose on his forelegs and made dart,
with surprising quickness, toward blades
of grass. He was found to be devouring
bees which were resting on the grass
blades awaiting their chance to enter the
hive. M. Brunei waited until twelve vic
Tins had been devoured, expecting to
see the toad's voracity punished with a
sting, but no such result occurred. The
toad was twice removed to quite a dis
lance f.om the hives, but both times he
returned to the spot in few hours.
PERSONS who are fond of cucumbers
will be sorry to learn that DIR. Leidy, at
recent meeting of the Academy of
Sciences, Philadelphia, exhibited a
specimen of tape-worm said to have
been taken from the inside of large
cucumber This was the first time he
had heard of enc of these worms having
been found in vegetable. The specimen
has all the characteristics of a true tape
worm, but belongs apparently to an un-
known species. The ovaries containing
round yellow eggs, are confined to the
anterior extremity of the segment.
HEN-MANURE should never be mixed
with ashes or lime, as the latter sets the
ammonia of the former free, and it es-
capes into the atmosphere, and very
valuable property is lost. Plaster may
be added, since this, as it is said, " fixes"
the ammonia, an effect just the opposite
OF caustic or carbonate of lime. By COM
posting the hen-manure with muck, or
even good loan, and then adding plaster,
an excellent fertilizer of corn may be
made. The object of composing is to
further decompose the hen-manure;
also to dilute it, thereby avoiding injury
to the roots of plants, by placing a very
rank material in close contact with them.
A pint of such materials with peck of
good peat or loan, will produce far bet
ter results than when used pure.

BosToN Journal: An elderly gentle
man, of nearly seventy winters, was
taking his noon cup of coffee at Mrs.
Harrington's a few days since when a
much younger friend suggested that cot
fee drinking was very injurious Is
that sop inquired the veteran; "well,
now, you sit down and tell me all about
it not that am much interested on my
own account, but / should like to tell
my father, who is about ninety years of
age, and who persists in drinking coffee"

of the DefasUare Waterman.

/
Over these wild hills and in the vast
region lying along the valleys of the
Delaware, the Mohawk, and the
Popacton, back to their sources in the
Catskills, once lived the powerful Lenni
Lenape Indians. About the time that
the Dutch penetrated the valley north
of the Gap in search of copper, the
beautiful Winona, daughter of the wise
chief Wlsslnoming, met and loved a
young Hollander named Hendrick Van
Allen.
Winona was the idol of her tribe, and
an object of admiration to the white
ladies of the Dutch settlement. Her
quick, intelligent nature drank instruc-
ton from the lips of the educated and
gallant Van Allen. Her mind grew
wonderfully under his influence. He,
on his part, loved Winona with a pure
affection, and looked forward to an
honorable marriage with the dusky
princess. But when the English wrested
New York from the Kinckerbockers,
Van Allen was ordered home by the
governmental Holland, whose agent and
subject he was. This order he felt
bound to obey, inasmuch as he deemed
his aristocratic connections TOO valuable
to be lightly sacrificed. Not daring to
marry her and remove her from her
woodland haunts to his native land, he.
after many conflicts with himself, re-
solved to leave her woodland haunts for
time, and, if circumstances should
favor, to return, settle in America, and
make her his bride. But how to explain
his purpose to the supplemented beauty
nerplexed him.
One day the maiden, at his request
conducted him by well-known Indian
trails to the summit of Mount Minsi.
from whence re, for the first time, OBJ
tanned aclear view of the Gap. Return
ing from the mountain-top, they paused
at the spot now known as Lovers Leap
where, after listening to Winona's
praises of the glorious Minisink Valley,
as her people named their beautiful lands
on the Delaware, Van Allen summoned
courage sufficient to show her the letter
ordering him home, and to explain its
contents. The noble daughter of the
forest listened to his startling words
with silent grief. When he concluded,
she spoke in the heroic spirit sometimes
attributed to mythical Indians by poets
and novelists, and told him that Wi
nona's sun had now set forever; that she
had awaked from her beautiful dream of
love; that she would carry the image of
her lover upon her virgin heart into the
spirit-land; that his love was not like
hers; that, while his duty called him to
quit her and her woodland haunts. she
was summoned by the Great Spirit to die
that she might live again in the land
where the current of her love for
Hendrick might flow on without inter
ruption forever.
After this and much other grandilo-
quent speech, Winona babe Van Allen
farewell, and, suddenly darting from
his side, threw herself over the cliff.
Hendrick sprang after her, caught her,
but too late to prevent the catastrophe.
TIE princess of the Lenape and the
aristocratic young Dutchman are sup.
posed to have persisted together. A
tragic conclusion to a romantic story.

The entertainments given for charitable
purposes are so generally successful
that it seems strange that so few Of
them are projected New York contains
many halls, theatres, &C., not permanently
occupied, and it also contains hosts of impe-
cunious but great-hearted and able actors,
musicians and lecturers, who would cheer

time. For each Of these men and
women there are hundreds of people
too selfish or toe careless to spend
penny for charity's sake, yet whose money
has as great purchasing power as that
of any one else, and many of these people
would gladly quiet their fragmontary con-
sciences by patronizing amusements given
for benevolent purposes. An association,
no matter how small, if represented by
trustworthy names, could organize at small
cost series of entertainments of the sort
alluded to and make it popular and
profitable feature of the citys amuse-
ments. The idea is only the larger growth
of single similar enterprises which have
been very successful. and it would Sc

Mr.. Alvord has introduced general bill
in the Assembly comforting upon all cities,
towns and counties in the State the power
to take up or retire any existing bonds by
the issue and substitution of a similar
amount Of long bonds, bearing lower rate
of interest than those redeemed and can
celled. This will legalize in New York a
policy which, if carried to it's full extent
and applied to the whole city debt, would
save the taxpayers s2,OO0,Oo year in in
terest money. Our total bonded debt,
including assessment bonds, is about
SLAP, 900, 900, of which SCI, 900, 900 is at
seven per cent, $4,000, 900 at six per cent
and SO, 900. 600 at FIVE per cent The bonds
fall due at various dates between this year
and the year 1915, except $780, 600 Of
consolidated stock, which extends to 1926
The credit of the city is unexceptionable,
and as long investments at FIVE or even four
per cent are eagerly sought many holders
of our present bonds would, no doubt, gladly
exchange them for, say eighty year bonds
at five or four and half per 5ent In
eighty years, having the interest only to
provide meanwhile, the accumulations of
the sinking fund would 60 far toward

The Superintendent of Buildings in this
city invited largo number of people the
other day, among them the Mayor and the
Aldermen, to witness series of experiments
with fire extinguishing compound. This
exhibition was held in the City Hall Park.
and in the presence Of city officials, but we
are not informed that it was for the public
benefit; on the contrary, it seems to be an
advertisement for firm in Beaver street
who manufacture the compound. If this
firm intend to throw open their receipt to
the public after demonstrating its efficacy
we shall be the first to acknowledge the
obligation but if the City Hall Park and the
presence of our officials be used as means
of advertising private enterprise we doubt
the propriety of thus lending their authority
and public property for such uses. There
is no secret about the various agents used
in the freproofng process. Earnest, active
and able men are publishing from week to
week the practical results of tests made in
the public interest. So far these tests have
proved thoroughly satisfactory. The cost Of
these experiments is betrayed by these indi-
viduals, whose time and money are given to
the public ; and the receipts for the fire.
proofng ingredients have been and will be
given for public benefit and use through the
columns Of the press. We have neither
appreciation nor sympathy for any other
method Of dealing with this important mat
