CURING SITTERs.-Itis very pleasant,
as well as desirable, to have the hens
show decided inclination to sit when
you wish them to; but to have them all
take the fever at the same time, when
you have finished the Matching for the
season, or when you very mitch desire
some more eggs, is not SO nice. To
convince them that they are taking a
wrong course, and that you wish them
to lay more eggs before they become
confirmed in their broody ptopehsities,
is not very easy task, and usually they
persistently refuse to be governed by
your wishes. The old fashioned mode
of curing sitters was to duck them well
in bucket of water, or to put their
heads under wing and whirl them
around until they were ready to drop
from exhaustion and fgaf. This is both
cruel and useless, and where it might
be successful in one case would fail in
tying straight stick to one leg SO it can
not be bent. This is sure to prevent
them from sitting unless they do so
standing up" Some tie chunk of
wood to one foot, which is nearly as
childish as the others, and does about
as much good. The best plan that
know of is to conhne the broody hens
in good roomy coop with q young,
vigorous cock to keep them company.
His constant attentions will soon cure
all their dispOsition to sit This plan
has the benefit of being both natural
and sensible. At the same time be-
lieve that every hen should be allowed
to bring off one brood of chickens dur
ing the season, and the time will not be
lost, as she will lay just as many eggs if
allowed q period of rest.-Cor. Country
Gentleman

A Wedding in the Spirit Land.

LEAVENWORTH, KAS., June 90
There is considerable excitement in this
city over the report published in the
Times of Wednesday morning, of the
wedding in the spirit world of a daugh-
ter of Col. 1. E. Eaton to a son of ex-
President Pierce. The ceremony is
reported to have been performed
in spiritual bower, and by one
who now resides in the spirit
land. The bride died almost
80 years ago, an infant, and the groom
was killed when small boy. The cere-
mony on the goth was celebrated at Col.
Eaton's home, in Leavenworth, only a
few chosen friends being present. A
splendid wedding breakfast was pre-
pared and dishes arranged for the bridal
pair, who are reported to have appeared
in materialized form to those present.
The bride was elegantly attired
and the groom was dressed in
the conventional style of the pres
emit time. The above is in substance
what was learned by the reporters, and
afterward substantiated by complete
report, over Col. Eaton's signature,
published this morning. Mott, the ma
terializing medium, was in the cabinet
during the ceremony. An interview
with Col. H. d. Mckay, which will ap-
pear in the Times tomorrow, further
substantiates the facts. All who were
connected with the affair say it is one
of the most pleasant that ever
occurred in the spirit world. Col.
Eaton showed reporter to-day a dia-
gram of the bower in which the cere-
mony was performed, and which he re-
ceived from Prof. Mansfield. The num-
Der of spiritual guests present was near
SO. The diagram shows the points of
ingress and egress to the bower, and how
the guests were arranged during the
wedding. 1t is one of the most inter-
esting affairs which has taken place in
this vicinity for years.
In Seville, Spain, wherever the ir-
regularity of the buildings provides a
corner, little stalls with picturesque
awnings are established, at which a
SiCnb N1iiOty VI Cucdp beverages are U.s.
pensed to the ever-thirsty crowd. They
are more frequented than the wine
shops, and are considered more respect
able-in fact, all classes indulge in the
excellent drinks provided. These con-
sist of multitude of sirups mixed with
very cold water; of lemonade or orange
ade, made with the fruit itself and in
your presence; or of orchata, delicious
mixture of crushed almonds and sugar,
which, when dissolved in water, con-
verts it into milky substance, and i'm
parts most delicate and refreshing
flavor. In all this there is no wine and
less spirits. Even tea and coffee would
be esteemed too exciting for constant
while out of doors in the
hot streets. Magnificent men-torcadors
and others, gypsies and horse-tamers-
leap off their horses and drink with sat-
sfaction one of these innocent decoc-
ions.

MR.. NATHANIEL Roor, one of the
Oldest men in Coventry, Conn.,, his age
being "a, died under very singular cir
cumstances recently. He had been in
excellent health for one of his years. He
got up on the morning of the day he
died and prepared to 60 into the field at
work, when neighbor came in, to
whom he said: elm expec ting to die
to-day!" The remark was SO coolly
uttered that the neighbor thought very
little of it. Mr.. Root worked all the
forenoon in lot, and went into the
house at noontime with his hired man.
After dinner, and just as soon as he had
lisen from the table, he started for an
other room, showing no signs of illness,
and as he went out said, "I'n go ard
lie down and die now!" No one sup
posed he was serious, but on going to
his room half an hour later he was found
to be stone dead.

the heights of his noble nature.
The site chosen for the deadly en-
counter with firearms was a most ia
vorable one for such work. Behind the
grand stand of the race-course lies a
patch of turf. sheltered on the one side
by clump of trees, on the other by the
Enclosure of what was once the weigh
ing ring. A 3uple of gentlemen might
exchange shots for an hour in that sweet
spot, and all creation remain ignorant of
it. Add to this that it was lovely
morning, fresh and clear, just the wealth
er for turning out of bed early and TAX
ing nice country drive.
Lambkin and his friends were the first
to arrive on the ground, and there met
polite gentleman in spectacles, who
proved to be the military surgeon. On
being introduced to Lambkin he felt his
pulse and nodded without making any
remark. A few minutes later a cab hove
in view, and there presently descended
from it young gentleman with an eye
glass and cigar, and two other well
dressed Frenchmen, likewise smoking.
Lambkin's seconds forthwith raised
their hats, and the Englishman me-
chemically initiated them. These cour-
tesies were repeated when the two
groups came within speaking distance
of each other.
The young man with the eye-glass
was M. de Craquetot. He was small
and dapper. but perfectly cool; and
Lambkin was secretly dismayed at the
look of implacable determination in his
face. He shook his head peremptorily
