that the Wabash will receive share of preferred
and one share of common Of the new stock for two
stock will be entitled to per cent dividends before
any dividends to the common stock.
The debt will remain substantially now, and
until the contemplated extensions of the Wabash to
Chicago the Paducah branch, and from Toledo
to Detroit completed, it will be at the rate Of
about $25 900 per mile for about thousand four
hundred miles of consolidated road. With the ad-
ditions named the debt will be about $22 900 per
mile and the stock s2s.OOO. aggregate of $4,000
per mile in stock and bonds When the Omaha

pleted it will open direct communication with st.
Louis and the Pacific Canal by way Of Omaha and

connects with the line at Kansas City, thus giving
the consolidated trunk Cheyenne in addition to

upon the probable effects of drain thereof to

Kept His Word.

In city of Central Ohio, Q gentle
man, on returning home, thought as
the air was rather cold he had better
secure some coal, so stepping into the
Office near by, he asked if he could be
accommodated.
"Well, SIR" was the reply, Il will
send it if can. Our orders are many;
enough, think, to keep us until twelve
to-nig ht.''
But" replied the man, eff you can
not send it, l must know it, for shall
60 to another yard"
Very WE'LL" said the dealer. II will
send it."
IAN right" said the gentleman. He
returned home and waited until it grew
quite dark. No coal had come, and he
concluded that if necessity demanded.
he would borrow from some kind
neighbor during Sabbath. Finally all
retired. An hour later a loud knock
was heard at the door. Upon opening
it there was the load of coal, sure
enough, Saturday night.
"Ab," said the liam, 81 can depend
upon that man. l will call there
again."
Now, boys, learn from this simple
story. Though you must go through
darkness, and endure hardships, make
your word as good as gold. "a good
name is rather to be chosen than greet
riches. "-Iaterior.

The od0r in the cell was now so foul,
the air 90 oppressive, and the monoto-
ny and loneliness 90 inexpressibly hor-
rfble to Faminzin that he implored the
attendants to permit him to walk in
the courtyard of the prison, If only
for q few moments. The petition was
duly conveyed to the Governor Of the
Jail, and the requisite leave was
granted. Accordingly the :. Professor
sExcellency" was marched into the
quadrangle, couple Of infantrymen
were called out, their rifles were
loaded, and, with one of these amiable
guards in front and one behind him, he
promcnaded the courtyard to and fro.
Five minutes of this was, however, suf-
licient for Faminzin, and he retired
precipitatsly to his cell.
Here, in the damp, filthy hole, full of
dirt and covered with yermin, His Ex-
celiency tho Professor OF the University
of st. Petersburg remained, without
any intimation of his oilense, without
any information rs to his fate or that
of his brother, all day Monday, Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday. In
vain he asked for intelligence as to the
cause of his arrest. Even the pitiful
request, often repeated, that his volume
on 9 Organic Chemistry should be re-
turned to him, that, by reading, the
hours might seem less depressing and
wearisome, was denied. On Thursday
the courteous Chief of the Police reap
peared, polite and unimpressionable as
before, and said, Your Excellency, I
have the greet happiness and much
greater pleasure to inform youthat you
are now free" On reaching his resi-
dence, Prof. Faminzin found his broth
or, who, less fortunate than his Eek
oellency,' had Jared far otherwise.

it is impossible to conjecture: Inn
mediately after his arrival at home,
Prot. Faminzin proceeded to the Prin-
cipal of the Academy of Arts and

personage'was totally unaware of the
fact that one of his professors had been
imprisoned for five days in the most no

Yin, bitterly aggrieved by the conduct
of the police and the treatment he had

suffered. The Grand Duke simply
shrugged his shoulders, and replied:

Eruptlons and Earthquakes In 1873.

In his annual report on these phe-
nomena, just published, Herr Fuchs
states that the volcanic eruptions
reached the unusually high number of
twelve; they were at places Ear apart,
and mostly from little known and
rather inaccessible volcanoes. Vesu-
vius entered on an active period in
April. In January, repeated eruptions
were observed from previously I'M
known volcanoes at the south point Of
South America. About the same time
Tanna, in the New Hebrides, was &C.
tive, and the Island Birara, in the new
Britannia Group, was devastated in its
northern part, while immense quanti-
ties of pumice reached fur out to sea.
1sluga, in South America (19 deg. 10
min. 3. lat.) was the scene of an erup.
ton in February, accompanied with
much lava. There were smaller vol
canic outbreaks of Hecla, Of Asamay-
anna in Japan, of Cotopaxi, of Tepaco.
and Sitna in San Salvador, and of lsalco.
To the more considerable eruptions
belong those in the Aleutian and So.
ciety Islands; in the latter, the Islands
Raiatea and Babora were laid waste.
A large eruption Of mud took place
from Paterno, in Sicily. Coming ia
the earthquakes, we find 1O3 recorded;
but this enumeration includes a. units
MANY COMPLETE periods of earthouaKe.
In which shocks and vibrations followed
each other at short intervals. for DAYS
Or even weeks. An earthouake In
Tanna lasted four weeks. and in the
Province Of Catania, earth vibrations
were experienced almost continuously
from the 4th of October to the 10Th Of
November. Earthquakes were most
numerous in winter and autumn; of
the 1O3, there were thirty.nine in
winter, twenty.six in autumn, and
nineteen each in spring and summer.
The most violent and destructive was
that on the 23d of January, in the
Province of Terapaca, South America;
it was preceded by long period of
vibration from the disastrous earth
quake Of the previous year. The usual
tiood-waves which followed wrought
even greater mischief than the EARTH
quake in Arequiba, Pico, Mantilla and
other places. A notable earthquake
occurred in the south of San Salvador,
destroying nearly all the houses in Ju-
cuapa, and causing much loss Of life.

Pruning ought to be done in June,
after the leaves have attained their
full size, then the wounds will not bleed
and they will commence to heal imme-
diately. When you prune before the
sap starts. when it does start it will
run out of the places where you b.5o

That accounts for the large number Of
limbs in good many orchards with
about two or three inches of dead wood
