CANON CITY WAR.
No Material Change in the Railroad
Troubles.

Canon City, April 27.-An injunction
was issued by Judge Henry and served
on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
this morning, in consequence of which
both roads have been resting on their
oars all day; but this afternoon infor-
nation is received that the injunction
as to the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe has been dissolved, so that probably
the road will resume work at once.
About one o'clock in the afternoon
to-day party of Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe men, under the direction of
Road Master Carter, were about to ef-
feet an entrance to the main gorge of
the Grand Canon, when they were met
by n detachment of Denver & Rio
Grande men carrying arms, and order
ed to proceed no further, under penalty
of being shot. The party turned back.
VIM. B. Strong left here on this morn
ing's train, eastward bound. There is
no material change in the position of
forces except in one locality, where the
Denver & Rio Grande men have re-
taken point of which they had been
disposessed some time since.

FROM DEADWOOD.
Accident on the Sidney Route
DEADwooD, April y, 1875

DEADwooD, April y, 1878.
Thursday night the raft that is used
for transferring passengers and the mail
across the Cheyenne river on the Sid
ney route, capsized when in the middle
of the stream. All the mail and bag
gage was lost and the passengers mar
rowly escaped drowning. The warm
weather for the past few days has caused
the rapid melting of the snow in the
mountains, which has swollen the al
ready dangerously high creeks that run
through Deadwood. This evening a
rain storm set in and great fear is en-
tertained that portion of the business
center of this city will DE seriously dam
aged by the flood. The District court
was adjourned to-day on account Of the
water flowing into the court room. All
deeds and papers are being removed
from the recorders Office, which lies in
the path of the raging waters, to a
place of safety. A large gang of men
are at work tearing down the bridges
and small buildings that obstruct the
free passage of the water.

' London, April 27.-There is no ma
terial change in the war situation this
week. The game of diplomatic chess
still proceeds without definite result.
Meantime Russia holds on to all her
territorial gains, though ready to yield
much when it insures peace. England
continues to occupy her position of de-
plomatic isolation. Her hopes to Sc
cure an Austrian alliance have failed,
as everybody now admits. Austria
cannot afford the responsibility of war,
and has nothing to gain by it which
she cannot obtain at less expense by
non-intervention between England and
Russia, until hostile blows are actually
exchanged.

England suddenly claiming that the

principle which she had already accept

drawn from the principle of prelimi-

Rice for Young Chickens.

In some localities it is difficult to get
chicks through the first two weeks after
they are Matched; for the little COM
plants of this early period are often
more numerous and critical than at any
other period of their lives. Feed is the
first consideration, and pure water a
great essential for them from first to
last. Cornmeal is the one article of
chicken diet which has been the main
dependence for generations; but some
experiments with rice, last year, con-
WINGED US that for young chicks it is
equal to anything, if not superior to
rything else. Broods fed IL pom rice
alone all lived and grew frely on single
handful at feed for the hen and her
brood. An Inferior quality, known to
the trade as broken rice, is just as good
for feed; and it takes so little for feed
that the expense is no greater in the
northern states than cornmeal, while in
the south it will be the cheapest feed
known.-Louisriiie, kentucky, Home and
Farm.

Strawberries.

Some of our readers will be asking
themselves "Shall plant strawberries
now or wait until summer or fall?" We
say plant now. This will insure a full
crop for next year. If it be deferred
until late in the season, a partial crop
only will result next year. Select your
plants which may be known by their
fibrous, whitish roots, while those of
old plants are longer, darker and more
stringy. For home use, use manure
without stint, almost any kind. Ashes
and bone-dust are excellent. But barn
yard manure will suffice. Plant in rows
two feet apart and eighteen inches apart
in the row. Triomphe de Grande, Jo-
cunda, Boyden 80, Charles Downing are
fine varieties. Capt. Jack with us is
preferable to the old Wilson. Try the
Great American, Beauty, President Lin
coin. Upon number of plants We last
year tried the effect not only of a COM
binatio1 of all the manures at hand, but
we also applied liquid manure bounti-
fully. The result was a surprising
growth of leaves such as we have never
before seen in the strawberry, and very
large berries, but fewer than those borne
by other plants not so treated.-RuaI
