the Turks, and they brok in panic and
fed headlong from their defenses.
AT this moment great mob of
TURKISH WOMEN AND PRIESTS
came to the rescue with a green flag
shouting the Mussulman's war cry.
Needle guns falling from the hands of
the slain, were seized by the new
comers and the Russian advance,
shattered and repulsed, withdrew and
the onslaught ended in q disastrous
defeat. Between
FOUR AND FIVE THOUSAND
Russians were left dead and wounded
in the rugged hills between Batoum

Chamber, accused Hussein Pasha, tn,

LONDON, May 25.-The Tines Ber-
lin despatch says the ministerial Post
contends that the conspiracy which
upset the French Cabinet, was prin-
cipally directed against Germany
French armaments having been car
ried to the highest pitch the mask is
thrown aside and an attempt is made
to profit by the latest European com.
pllcation for gaining allies. What
the Monarchical conspirators imme-
diateiy aim at is the restoration of
Papacy through the humiliation of
Germany.
The Times correspondent points
out the Post as the same paper that
two years ago published notorious
sensational articles on the imminence
of war.
1t is stated here that Munktar Pasha
is marching upon Ardaban while the
Russians are rapidly advancing
against Erzeroum. .

Last spring the greatest excitement
was created In England by series Of
highway -robberies in the traditional
pistol and mask style on the historical
ground OF Blackheath. The mystery
has at last been solved. A few days ago
two bakers apprentices Of Portsmouth
were arrested with some Of the stolen
money In their possession. The pris-

were found copies Of the Young Briton,
the Boys Standard, and "Nigntshade |;

The following crop of beets, as reported
by the Country Gentleman recently, shows
what deep culture will do. 1t is surpris-
inc to us that our cullivators here do not
comprehend its value. Besides this it is
important to sow early, to secure the best
crop, as they will continue to grow late,
and having good start early will make Il
large growth, which would otherwise be
lost:
Messrs Smith & Powell, of the Syracuse
nurseries have given us the measurement
of a crop of beels raised this year on one
acre of land. The variety is known as the
Yellow Ovoid. The ground WAS thor
oughly subsoied and well taken care Of,
The crop weighed 1184O0 pounds, or
about SO tons-or at IS pounds per busheI,
would amount to 1873 bushels and 20
pounds. Successful nurserymen, who
know that very deep, we'll prepared soil
is hest for trees, often furnish some of the
finest specimens of profitable farming in
the heavy crops which they obtain from
the vacant portions of their land; which
should encourage farmers to discard ST.
perficial and adopt thorough culture.
