MEMPHIS, May LAT 9:2O this morn
ing the toWboat Warner, from New Or
leans to ST. Louis with Eve model barges
and trading boat in tow, exploded her
boilers when opposite the elevator. The
pilot house and roof were blown 10 great
height and fell back upon the wreck,
while the air was filled with splinters and
Fragments. The wreck took FIRE instantly
and the smoke and steam hid the boat
from the crowd which soon lined the
Bluff, and it was thought all on board
had persisted. The tug Desota and two
or three skiffs were soon at the wreck
and succeeded in saving the following;
John W. Poe, clerk, Jacob Coz, pilot
badly bruised; Capt. George Dawson,
slighty scalded; Napoleon Devinney,
pantryman, cut in hand and arm; John
Sullivan, second cook, badly cut in
the arm and scalded; Clara Black, cham
bermaid, badly bruised; Carney Cassidy,
mate, blown through the roof and badly
hurt; Charles Anschulz, first engineer,
slightly hurt; Nicholas Cobb, steward,
slightly scalded; VIM. jerks, carpenter,
Peier Connolly and Pat Thompson, FIRE
men, unhurt; Dixon Kennett, pilot, and
VIM. Radcliffe, second engineer, who were
asleep at the time, were lost and one FIRE.
man was literally blown into fragments.
The boat had crew Of 25, but owing TO
the confusion II is impossible to tell ex.
actly how many were lost.
In FIVE minutes after the explosion all
the wreck except the roof had sunk out
Of sight. The tow Of barges was on FIRE,
but the tug Desota extinguished the FIRE
and landed the barges on the Arkansas
shore. ,..,. -, ...
All the officers and crew were residents
Of St. Louis.
The noise Of the explosion resembled
the discharge Of ten.inch columbiad and
shook every building in the city.

Opening OF the Paris Exhibition


PARIs, May 1.-The International Ex'
hibition Of rs was opened to. day with the
great eetai programme heretofore made
public, which was strictly carried out. Al
one time in the morning II was feared that
the ceremonies would be interfered with,
as at 8 o'clock rain was falling, but at
9:45 the rain ceased and hopes were in
spired that the day would be fne. These
we're realized at 1l:30, when the clouds
broke and the sun shone out beautifully
The weather though was rather hot.
President MacMahon reached the Ex.
hibition at 2 o'clock in carriage, es-
corted by his military household. he
was welcomed by Teisseren @. DeBort,
Minister OF Commerce, and declared the
Exhibition open amid salyos Of artillery
and music OF the bands.
The Exhibition Building was gaily
decorated with flags Of all nations, and
an immense crowd was IN the vicinity.
Despite the fair weather that prevail.
ed In the forenoon It was cloudy when the
ceremony Of the opening began, but In
half an hour the sun was shining bright
The crowd was very enthusiastic, and
cries were everywhere raised Of "Vive Ia

The American building, though un'
finished, compares favorably with the
others. The department Of manufacture,
shown the least progress. The American
art department Is the best ever shown
abroad by America.

Winter Farm Economics

There are - many things the

DO it FOR him. that it Is surprising
that . few are without i Kit Of
wood working tools. a shooting
hammer, some horse nails. pinch
erS for IRON, copper. Tiyets. screws.
and other necessary articles Il viii
enable him to complete MANY a
handy Job without the intervention
Of the carpenter. The time requir-
ed to do the work Will often be
found TO be less than that spent In
gong to and from the mechanics
place Of business. Thus with a
few tools the wood work Of har-
rows. plows. ~culuvators. and other
tools about the farm may be repair
ed. Bv having a few extra handles
Of forks and other implements On
hand. these may lie cheaply repair
ed and made a. good a, new.
Wagon tongues, and many other
duplicates for farm vehicles and
machines, are now prepared 50 a.
TO require but little lifting. IN
the case Of machines, all that Is
necessary, as a rule, is simply to
fasten them IN place. In doing
this the farmer not only renders
himself handy with tools, but at
the same time he becomes thor
oughly %conversant with the work
ING parts of each individual ma
chme-nO small matter TO the prac-
teal man. In fact every farmer
OUGHT to be able 10 take apart. and
put together inteiligcntlv. any M
chine Oh the farm. Unless this bc
tie case, they cannot be worked "a
they should be.
While the farmer is thus educa-
ting himself, he will come to see
the necessity and economy Of hay
ing in its place for everything.
when not IN ISe, ana when III use
they will be just in place. 50, he
will come to occupy his leisure
hours IN repairs of various kinds.

The pumps about the place will
always draw. Water troughs will
never have sloughs Of mud about
them IN soft weather. to mire stock.
nor glare ice IN hard weather, to
MAIN them. Sheds will be made
comfortable. The best facilities
gradually be accumulated for ac-
complishing the work of the farm,
and a general air Of thrift will be
observable, not only about the
homestead, but over the farm.

SHRINKAGB OF CORN.-Ihc very
common advice to farmers to sell
their grain az soon after harvest az
it can be marketed, Is certainly
sensible as regards corn. No grain
shrinks so much from November
till Nav, and the advance IN price
very nearly pays the loss. It l. gem
orally poor policy for Eastern farm
to sell corn, and at the present
prices especially, but if the corn
must be sold, BY all means do it
now. For some experiments have
made, | am satisfied that a cent per
pound in November, even with DRY
corn, Is fully equal to 81 cent,
per bushel in May. By that time.
if well housed the corn is thorough
" dry. and the purchaser gets grain
that will hold III weight after
grinding. There Is as much pro-
portionate advantage To the farmer
IN feeding old corn a. to the dealer
III buying it. There seems i 1T
something d~eleterious 10 stock IN
imp~erfectly dried corn, as farmers
have often noticed in changing from
old corn meal TO new. One bushel
Of old corn Is worth two Of new for
feeding TO hogs, cattle or horses.
