The SECRET OF GOOD EoRsEMAN.-
The great secret of the power OF a sue
cessful horseman lies chiefly in the
perfect hands with which he guides
his horse and skillfully controls his
slightest movement, and it is often mar
Vellous how quickly a horse knows
lnat he is in the hands of one whom he
must obey, and how completely he falls
under the control of one rider, while
with another almost his fins impulse is
resistance, which frequently terminates
in confirmed vice. This is mainly
caused by the too frequent use of spurs,
while if slight switch were used a
horse would never become fractions.
The accomplishments of inducing ahorse
to go quietly and pleasantly, by means
of an easy, yet firm seat, cool Judgment
and Judicious use of light and steady
hands, is, unfortunately, but too little
valued, although forming one of the
most desirable qualifications in the list
of attributes necessary to form per-
feet horseman. However, seat and
hands must be combined, in order to
control ticklish, fractions, bad-tem-
pered horse. Cool and quiet treatment
and the avoidance of all motion, save
the slightest movements of hand. wrist
and heels, will work many advantages
in convincing an obstinate and frac-
tiOus horse that he is in the hands of a
master.

A Nihilist Trap.

A few weeks ago Serge Lawrowski,
one of the ablest detectives attached to
the Third Department, was sent from
st. Petersburg to POltava with instruc-
tions to get at the secrets of the Nihilis-
tic organization there established. Ar
rived at Poltova, LawrOwski displayed
great activity in guiding the researches
of the local police, made many &C
quaintances in different characters, be-
ing an expert in changing his appear
ance and manner, and was hopeful of
success in his mission, when his evil
fortune prompted him to fall In love
with the pretty daughter of a priest,
named Achristoff. The girl, only sew
enteen years of age, was affiliated to the
associations, and had been planted
upon Lawrowski by order of the Pol
tsva Committee, with the object of
betraying him into their hands. After
a fortnight's ardent courtship Mile.
Achristoff allowed herself to be pur-
suaded to give her admirer rendez-
vous by night in garden just outside
the town. When Llwrowski reached
the trysting place he was surrounded
and seized by five masked men, armed
with revolvers and knives, who bound
him to a tree and cut off his nose
and ears Bleeding and unable TO shout
for assistance, as he had been gagged
by his mutilators, he remained where
they lett him in an agony of pain until
early morning, when he was found
senseless and all but dead from loss OF
blood. An open letter in his pocket
contained the following ferocious an
nouncement: "We cut off his nose be-
cause he is sleuth-hound, and his ears
because he has proved himself to be an
ass, in that he paid court to one of Usl"
MIL. Achristoff has vanished from Pol
tava, and all efforts of the police to
track her to her hiding place have
proved utterly Intellectual. Meanwhile,
Lswrowski lies In hopeless condition; ;
and even should he rally from the ut
ter exhaustion induced by the hemor-
rhage suffered during that terrible
night, he will bear hideous witness on
his distigured countenance, as long as
he may live, to the pitiless anger of the
Poltava Committee. The st. Peters
burger Zeitung reports four attempts at
assassination committed at kisan, the
victims of which haye one and all been
State officials of high rank. Three of
the four persons attacked have died of
their wounds. One of these latter,
Novikoff, the President Of the district,
walked into the principal restaurant of
Kasan a few minutes before he was
shot, and said to one of the walters !:
"Friend, give me a dram; perhaps it
will be the last shall ever drink" \
glass Of vodki was brought to him, and
the waiter noticed that Novikoff's hand
shook as he lifted the liquor to his lips.
Immediately afterwards he left the res
taurant; but, as he opened the door, a
bullet struck him full in the breast, in
flicting an injury which has since
proved fatal The agents of the CON-
mittee actually engaged in these out
RACES have been arrested. Two are
working men, one is Boyar, and an
other handsome and highly educated
girl of seventeen.

A Chinese Restaurant I'm Frisco

The first floor of Chinese restaurant
gree better. the third is aristocratic.
The floors are bare, but the furniture is
really handsome. The chairs of black
carved wood, straight seats and straight
backs, and in shape, quantity Eastern.
Between every two there is little
square table, about as big on the top as
a quarto volume. The wood is black
like the chairs, and the top is slab of
brown mottled marble. There are odd
looking lamps hanging from the cell
ings of the pagoda style, plants in the
windows, and pictures on the walls.
Also here and there are hung a couple
of their eXecrable musical instruments.
When we were summoned to table we
found it spread with a white cloth.
There are about a half-dozen dishes of
nuts and cOnfections. There were pre-
served ginger, lines, cucumbers,
plums. But even the fruit was Chin
ese, and was long and queer to look at,
ihc a pdspud AllilLiiiiS, anu hdu d
strange smack 20 it flavor. But the
tea-oh, delight the tea, There is a
good story extant that it costs from
twelve to eighteen dollars pound, and
we fancied that we tasted the eighteen
dollars in every cup. They make 1t in
little porcelain bowls. and cover it
with an inverted cup to let ir steam.
Each individual is given his own bowl,
aud pOurs his tea into cup, for they
drink it in homeopathic sips. There is
some knack in pouring it out, as people
discover after they have scalded their
hands badly. We slipped it with the
most charming little porcelain spoons,
which held just enough to be satisfac-
tory. They drink it straight without
milk or sugar, but we liked it so well
that we kept the little China boy trot-
ting around with his copper kettle of
hot water, filling the bowls again and
again. No one ever acknowledges
how much of the tea they drink, and ne
one ever sleeps soundly for a week after
ward. Chinatown is queer place, and
TO thoroughly enjoy the trip is only
necessary to wear thick shoes on ac-
count OF the underground damp, to
have a choice cold in the head in order
Co avoid the smells, and to drink tea
till the kettle is exhausted.

is ever, broadcast or in drills, in the
same manner as oats, three pecks to one
bushel Of seed to the acre. 1t is very
rapid growing grass, ard mPtures in
about ten weeks time. Its yield is enor-
mOus-often as much as five tons OF
hay and one hundred bushels of seed
to the acre. 1t takes much labor to save
it, and good force is necessary to fol-
low the machine when cutting as grain.
1t Is eagerly eaten by all stock, even
hogs live and thrive on 1t, and ii
is crop of which the farmer is sure to
raise fair yield every time he sows,
one rain insuring a good crop. L have
seen good hay from iI when the season
was too poor to make hay from anything

grown in some part of nearly every

PRESERVING MnK.-Professor Cald-
we'll, of Cornell University, regards
boracic acid as the best antiseptic agent
he has found for preserving milk
sound for unusual lengths of time. He
found that with the temperature of
eighty degrees Farenheit one part of
boracid acid added to 800 parts of milk
caused it to remain sweet for fifty
hours. At this temperature natural
milk soured in from twenty TO twenty
two. With the temperature at seventy
two degrees one part of boracid acid in
l .O6O parts of milk kept it sweet for
fifty hours. When applied TO the milk
warm from the COW one part of acid to
l 900 parts of milk will keep it sound
twice as long as milk not so treated.
Boracic acid is not detrimental to
health used in the quantity mentioned,
Professor Caldwell having used the
milk freely without harm to the stom'
acE.

Ii is a familiar fact to inhabitants in
Alpine districts that avalanches rarely
fall while the sky remains covered
whereas they fall rapidly and in great
numbers, especially in the mornings
when the heavens are clear. On this
account, the monks of the great St.
Bernard do not leave the convent in the
latter case. NJ. Dufour attributes this
more frequent fall of ayalanches to the
lowering of temperature when the sky
is clear, especially before sunrise. The
small tilaments of ice which retain the
snow on the sides of the mountain
then contract and break. and the snow
begins TO slide, carrying down other
portions below. 1t is known that very
slight disturbances, the fight of a bird,
few words in a deep voice. etc, suf-
flee 10 bring down avalanches.

THE HOUSEHOLD.

BRUISES, SPRAINs, FRAcTUaEs.-
Bruises may be produced on any part
of the body-are caused by the bOdy's
coming in contact, more or less forcibly,
with some external body-and are al
ways found in the vicinity of the point
of contact. Sprains most frequently
occur at or near the ankle, knee or
wrist joints, and are generally caused
by Indirect force applied to the ex-
tremity of the limb injured. Fractures
are more apt to be found a few inches
from the joints. though they are often
found near to or extend into the joints.
Sometimes they are located at the site
of injury (when the violence of the ac-
cident is great, though generally they
are found like sprains at some distance
from the point of contact-as when
person railing strikes his hand against
the ground aud fractures his arm near
the elbow. The first thing to be done
when any one or two of the above con-
ditions occur as the result of an acci-
dent, is TO place the sufferer in as COM
sortable position as possible, where he
can have plenty of fresh air and perfect
quiet. Ii Is of the utmost Importance
that all unnecessary persons should be
htpl Oul VI ci-ut, do wv bhNs
yitiate the air, but by their presence
they increase the shock through which
the injured one is passing. If faint the
head should be placed as low as the
rest of the body, and some cold water
sprinkled forcibly in the face. Stimu-
lants should not be given unless the
shock is very severe, and then they
should be administered with care, as all
stimulants tend to increase the state of
reaction, which is sure to come on in
short time, and which state, unless con-
trolled. is apt TO run into Inflammation.
When a bone in the extremities is
broken, joint sprained or tendon

land can do no harm) to have the limb
stretched as hard as possible by manual
strength in the natural direction of the
limb. Then place pieces of shingle,
covered with soft material If possible,
on either side of the limb and bind
pretty snugly. This will specially
give relief when it is necessary to re-
move the patient some distance. Should
the injured limb prove 10 be a lower
extremity the other limb makes an eX-
cellent splint. If it is an arm place it
in a sling, which gives great relief
even when the injury Is near the
shoulder. Broken ribs are best splin
tered by means of a broad band tightly
pinned around the chest. When you
are sure that you have sprain alone
to deal with let the joint be placed as
soon as possible in a pail OF hst water,
as hot as can be easily borne, and let
hotter water be added from time to
time, being careful not 10 scald the
limb. When fracture exists cold
water should be applied; and if great
heat and swelling supervene ice may
be added to the water, and the water
be caused to trickle over the injured
part. Laudanum may be added TO the
lotion which is applied to relieve the
pain, and witchhaZel, arnica or worm
wool and vinegar are excellent to stop
the swelling of the parts.
