Outbreak Among Political Prisoners,
THE SCHEME BETRAYED.
sr. PETERSBURG, April IL.


81. PETERSBURG, April IL.
A Kie6 correspondent Of the st. Peters,
burg journal" gives the following &C.
count Of the outbreak among the political
prisoners last month. Persons in tho Kicff
prison resolved some time ago to tunnel
under the walls and escape. The scheme
was betrayed by one Of the conspirators.
The authorities allowed the prisoners to
continue the excavation, and when the
tunnel was completed and the prisoners
had entered it, one after the other, intend
ing to come up through the opening beyond
the prison precincts, the soldiers, previ-
ously posted at the opening. shot the es-
Gaping prisoners ~ they came up. when
tho bulk Of the prisoners, terrified by the
noise Of tho firing. stopped and remained
in b tunnel. The soldiers were sent in
from behind, and the unfortunate wretches
were caught between two fires, and were
all shot down. The proceeding seemed to
give the officials much amusement, and
the director of the prison then praised and
decorated the soldiers for having
acted with such bravery. cleverness and
decision. The correspondent adds: Quite
in keeping with this is the statement pub
lishcd by the Russian Chaplain in the
central prison at Charkod. In the official
organ Of diocesan intelligence, he declares
that OF the 500 prisoners detained at that
prison 400 died within four months. One
Of the heaviest charges made by Nihilists
against Russian officials in the charge was
tho brutal treatment Of prisoners, in con-
sequence OF which the health Of most OF
them has broken down, many dying, and
some being driven mad.
LONDON, April IL.
The Times" says the unequivocal atti-
tude assumed by the Sultan relative to the

England and France will be able to turn
to account, but we cannot ~ yet discover
any valid reason for England abandoning
her policy Of extreme caution with regard
TO Egyptian Affairs. Tho proposal for q
joint expedition is manifestly premature.

EDITOR SENTINEL: At tho Anti Chinese
AZ meeting in the Courthouse this evening,
one Of the speakers was Orrin Miller. In the
course Of his remarks. he said that the Italian
population in this section constitute Q greater
evil than the Chinese. He further said that
Italians were imported from the Old Country
under contracts to work for almost a. low
wages after their arrival here M are received
by the Monxolians. In short, he said that the
JtxEans sre but little letter than slaves, and
sre doing the country great damage by their

we desire to denounce a. wholly and absolute
ly false. There In not an Italian merchant in
Eureka who engages or employs men at any
price in the Old Country /; neither do they
write for them to come here. Every Italian
who comes 70 this country comes OF his own
accord and free will. Most Of the coal. burning
is done by contract. and at prices which satisfy

Milk and Eggs as Food.

We desire particularly to recommend to
their families. There is no food so eco
nOmical, and at the same time SO healthful
and nutritious as milk. 1t is both meat
and drink. 1t contains every element es-
sential to the development of the animal
system. The proportions of these elements
also are just right. There is nitrogen to
form muscles, oil for fabrication and gell-
Grating heat, and saline matter for forming
bones. Fortunate are those children that
are brought up on milk diet. They are
unconscious of having stomachs; their
muscles are well developed; their skins are
smooth and their cheeks rosy. 1t is great
mistake to suppose that milk diet is suit
able only for children. Milk is just as well
adapted for men as boys. One of the best
developed men, both physically and ment-
ally, Massachusetts, ever produced, DIR.
Griffin, once pastor OF the Park street
church, Boston, and afterwards president
of Williams College, loved milk when a
boy and continued to love it all through
life, prcterring breakfast OF bread and
milk to anything else. Few men ever filled
Park street pulpit with larger physique
or more mental power. Milk is emphatic
ally mans food. In every thirty gallons
of it there is pound of phosphate of lime.
Why it is not more used in farmers fam
lilies we do not know unless it is so cheap
and abundant. Home mercies are wont to
he liohtlv nnnrnciatad
Eggs are another article of cheap and
nutritious food which we do not find on
farmers tables in the quantity which econ
omy demands. They are very convenient
to take to the store and exchange for su-
gar, spices, etc., and this is the disposition
which too many farmers make of them.
They probably do not fully comprehend
how valuable eggs are as food; that like
milk. an egg is complete food in itself,
containing everything necessary for the de-
velopment of perfect animal, as is mani
fest from the fact that chick is formed
fromit. 1t seems mystery how muscles,
bones, feathers, and everything that a
chick requires for its perfect development,
are made from the yolk and white OF an
egg; but such is the fact, and it shows
how complete a TODD an egg is. 1t is also
easily digested, if not damaged in cooking.
A raw or soft boiled egg is almost as easily
assimilated as is milk, and can be eaten
with impunity by children and invalids.
The average egg weighs thousand grains
and is worth more as food than SO much
beefsteak. Indeed, there is 70 more concen-
trated and nourishing food than eggs.
The albumen, oil, and saline matter are. as
in milk, in the right proportion for sustain
ing animal life. When eggs bring no more
than twenty cents per dozen, it is much
better economy to find market for them
In the family than at the store. Two or
three boiled eggs, with the addition of
slice or two of toast, will make breakfast
sufficient for man and good enough for a
king.-Massachusetts Ploughman.

about the Farm.

A lump OF wet salaratus applied to the
sting ora wasp or bee will stop the pain
instantly, and will also prevent the wound
ed part from swelling.
As soon as the upper portions of the
straw of cereals become yellow, no further
increase takes place in the weight Of the
seed. If the grain be not cut down soon
after the appearance Of this sign, its quail
ity deteriorates and its weight diminishes.
Cream is so sensitive that if exposed to
bad air or gases ii will take up the same,
and butter made from that cream will give
off the offensive Odors, which no amount
of working or flavoring can remove. 1t is
the prevailing practice of large proper
ton of our smaller dairymen in the west
to, during the winter, set milk in pantries
or cupboads, where it is more or less ex-
posed to heat, vapors, and odors arising
from the kitchen, which latter are sure to
settle on the cream, thereby very materially
deprcciating its value for butter making.
These last remarks cannot be too tOrcibly
impressed upon dairymen.
A rascal is travelling in Iowa, among
farmers, purchasing eggs and chickens, for
