Keeping Apples.

The Michigan Farmer says that apples
should not be put in the cellar until hard
freezing arrives, and adds:
They should be packed in clean new bar
rels, and stored in some shed or covered with
boards. exposed to the atmosphere for
several weeks after picking, then remove to
the grain barn. away from the smell of
stables and allowed to remain there as long
as possible aud not be frozen. We throw
stalks or straw over the barrel, and often
defer placing them in the cellar until late in
December. The fruit cellar should be dark
ered and kept as cool as possible and not
freeze. Place the barrels on their sides, with
strips of wood between them and the cellar
bottom, and do not open or move until
wanted for use. If the cellar is free from
scent of vegetables when the barrels are
opened, rich and tempting perfume will
arise. Most cellars are too warm for the
storing of fruit.

Bonneville Enquirer: To show the injury
inflicted upon farmers who raise sheep by
the dog nuisance, take the facts as presented
by the single county of Franklin, Indiana.
From official and sworn statements there
were GAO sheep killed by dogs, valued by
sworn appraisers at S2,06i95 for which
there is no return, and not only no return,
but worse than nothing: for in addition TO
the loss of sheep there were 1000 dogs in the
country TO feed, making no returns, each
one eating as much as pig or a sheep, aud
many of them owned and kept by the fami-
lies that are partly kept by the county. The
people are taxed to support the dogs, which
in turn kill their sheep, robbiDg them and
the county of their earnings and wealth. Ii
there was a sheep raised to each dog in the
country and added TO the number of sheep
killed, itwould add 2,640 TO the sheep, which
at the appraised value would add to the
wealth of the farmers and TO the tax dupli-
cate S7,027 each year. These are facts that
should claim the serious consideration OF the
people and their representatives in our legis-
lature-

When it is said of man, HE drinks"
and it can be proven, then what store wants
him for a clerk? What church wants him
for a member? Who will trust him? What
dying man appoints him his executor? He
may have been 40 years in building his
reputation-it goes down. Letters of recon-
-mendatioH, the backing up of business
firms. a brilliant ancestry, can not save him.
The world SHES off, Why? 1t is whispered
all through the community, He drinks; he

man loses his reputation for sobriety he
might as well be at the bottom of the sea.
There are young men here who have their
good names as their only capital. Your
father has started you out in city life. He
could only give you an education. He gave
you no means. He started you, however,
under Christian influences. You have come
to the city. You are now achieving your
own fortune. under God, by your own right
arm. Now look out, young man, that there
is no doubt of your sobriety. Do not create
any suspicion by going in or out of liquor
establishments, or by any glare of your eye,
or by any unnatural flush of your cheek.
You can not afford to do it, for your good
name is your only capital, and when that is
blasted, with the reputation of taking strong
drink all is gone.

Shelbyville Volunteer: The case of the
state against Theodore Z. Gregg, of Rush
county, charged with forging the name of
Thaddeus Lewis to a bank check was called
in the circuit court yesterday afternoon. IL
will be remembered that Gregg was recently
tried for this offense and convicted, but
Judge Hord awarded him a new trial. On
this the second trial, defendant put in q
plea of insanity, and, while admitting the
forgery introduced evidence to show that he
had become so demented by the use of
whisky and morphine as not to be RESPONSE
bic for the crime. The prosecutor argued,
with much force and point, that although
there were certain crimes which a man
might be excused for. committing under q
one OF them. Forgery was an &C for the
committal of which one must needs
be in possession of all his fac
ulties and capable of logical res-
soning. 1t Involves q knowledge of
the facts that the forger needs money; that
bis own credit is not sufficient TO obtain it;
that the desired credit will be extended to
another. He therefore deliberately goes to
bank, draws money upon the forged paper,
aud uses IL for his own benefit. An insane
man, urged Mr.. Ray, would not only be in
incapable of embracing all these points, but
would not even be aware that he had any
use for money. The case was submitted to
the jury at O'Clock last evening. and at 8
they brought IN verdict of acquittal. Thus
two juries in the short space OF month
return verdlcts in an important case of
felony entirely antagoni ,tic- Truly the
verdicts of juries are past finding out The
defendant Is sent on his way rejoicing. adj
vised that hereafter he may commit what
crimes he chooses, under the influence of
opium, and be excused under the conven-
lent and elastic plea of Insanity"

a Lifc-StruggIc With n Maniac

From the Erie PENN Dispatch.
On Saturday last rather incly.dressed
and wcll-appearing man landed at Fair
Point, Chautauqua Lake, and engaged
board for fortnight ut the Palace Hotel
There was nothing unnatural in his ap-
pcarance, nor did it seem at all remark
able when he attended church on Sunday
morning and bowed in tervent prayer
near the alter. People noting his con-
spicuOus position, looked with admiring
wonder upon the man who, regardless of
| the scrutinizing vision of the whole con
| grcgaton, manifested his religious zeal
in the most emphatic manner. On Mon
| day morning the stranger Strolled ont
near the lake, and there met Mr.. George
/ Irwin, a somewhat noted duck-hunter,
who had Just come in with his dog AMI
gun The stranger atfably greeted Mr..
Irwin and asked to be allowed to exam.
Inc his gun. Mr.. Irwin unsuspectingly
/ handed over the weapon, when the stran-
ger carefully examined it, then cooked it,
and, holding 1t toward Mr.. Irwin, asked
| him how he would rather die-would he
prefer being drowned to beng shot2 Mr..
irwin, regarding the question as Il Joke,
replied that if it was necessary for him
to die right there and then, he preferred
taking Il turn in the water. 1t was then
acal frenzy, and dashing the gun upon
the sand, he grappled with the now terrified
Irwin. The struggle was desperate one.
The maniac was Il powerful man, and
with an iron grip dragged the sportsman
to the waters edge, when the struggle
for life and death became even more des-
perate. Finally they both fell INTO the
water and while houndering there some
men who stood at short distance ran to
the rescue aud were scarcely able to re-
lease the victim from the maniac's clutch.
His clothes were nearly all torn from his
body and he was terribly bruised by the
brief but fearful encounter. Just about
this time small steamer came up to the
dock. 1t required four strong men to put
the maniac on board He was taken to
Mayville and lodged in jail. He persist
emily refused to give his name, declaring
as reason for his conduct that it was
necessary to sacrifice some life to the con-
secratlon of the Sunday school ground at
that place; that he had been chosen as
the instrument of death. He seemed to
talk sanely about the matter, and regarded
Mr. Irwin as an unappreciative man, be-
cause, as he said it was clearly in his
power to shoot Irwin on the spot, whereas
he had given him his choice of death,
and when about to yield his preference
four worldly friends appeared upon the
scene and iDterfered. The affair created
considerable excitement at Fair Point
and is the one topic of conversation IN that
vicinity.
