VIENNA, Dec. 10.-The recent
battle between the Monteuegrins
aud Albanians was the bloodiest
and most destructive in the history
of the war. Not less than 1,500
troops are reported killed, and at
least 1000 wounded. The battle
was fought in the bitterest possible
spirit, no quarter being given on
either side.

VIENNA, Dec. 10.-The most dis

people of Upper Silesia, caused by
famine. The crops were almost a

to the effect that not less than 200,-

many OF whom must starve unless

fallen trees, and in this city, Berne,

YELLOWS IN THE PEACH.

Although this disease has prevailed in
the peach orchards of many parts of our
state for many years, some are Ignorant
as to the appearance of the trees when
attacked by this disease, and they are per-
haps not aware that the laws of this state
req uire that trees attacked with it shall be
Immediately destroyed, no matter whether
it be peach nectarine or other tree; and it
is unlawful to sell fruit from trees which
have this disease. The law provides for
the appointment of three commissioners
by the township board of any town, be-
fore whom complaint can be made, if any
one is violating the law in regard to the
yellows. The penalty for violation of the
law is fine not exceeding 500 or Inn
prisonment in the county Jail not to ex-
coed three months, or both, in the discrc-
ton of the court.-As to the symptoms of
this disease, Downing says they are: q =
) I. The production upon the branches of
very slender, zoiry shoots, few inches
long and bearing starved, diminutive
leaves. These shoots are not protruded
from the extremities, but from latent buds
on the main portions of the stem and lar
ger BRANCHES. The leaves are very mar
row and small, quite distinct from those
of the natural size, and are either pale
yellow or destitute of color. 5i1a99ga y'ia
Z. The premature ripening2 of the fruit
This takes PLACE from two to four weeks
earlier than the proper season. m The
first season of the disease it grows
nearly to it's natural size;. but it is
always marked 20 externally 3tl what
evermay be the natural color with specks
and large spots of purplish red. Inter
nally, the flesh is more deeply colored, es-
pecially around the stone, than in the nat
ural state. Sometimes the premature RI
pening will be noticed season before
the appearance of the small, wiry shoots,
and sometimes it will be the other way I
8; With the above description of symp-
toms, any tree owner will be able to know
the disease and actaccordinglygl Theim-
mediate destruction of a diseased tree will
be for the advantages of the owner, if he
has more trees that are not affected, to say
nothing about the legal aspects ofthe case,
as the disease, is probably contagious, and
if a diseased tree is not destroyed, it will
gradually spread to the rest, and the des-
truction of the orchard is question of
short time.--1zlchienn Pabey. ',lt.' f...l;,,.,

THE GOOD TIME

Editor Patron Your comments on
the statement of the New York Times "a
leading organ of the Money Power1 that
the good time" was not only coming, but
was actually present, are proper and lust
iy correct; for there can be no real or peri
manent general prosperity that does not
have its origin in, and is based on the in
creasing ability of consumption by the
masses of the people. The toll of the ag-
rlculturIst and artisan may fill the ware
houses to repletion, railroads and ships
may be freighted to their full capacity,
and merchants may have in store assert
ments complete; but until the great mass
of consumers are in situation to crafty
their wants beyond the mere sastenance
of life, to which their present impoverish-
ed condition confine them, there can. not
be that activity in trade and interchange
of labor and its product which denote
general and permanent prosperity but that
only of a partial character soon to relapse
into the same old condition of things,
which have for several years past been
making the rich richer and the poor poor

THE MICRO TELEPHONE.

= The greatest invention Of the present. or
any preceding age, is the Telephone with
the Microphonef attachment Formerly
we lad telegraphic wire connecting this
PLACE with Louisa, about thirty miles, but
owing to.the expense incident to office
work Telephones have been placed at
either end of the line, using the same wire.
Now you can go to the office in this place
and converse with a friend at Louisa as if
sitting IN the same room. Not only so,
but you can distinguish voices just as
readily as if hearing them direct a1ia
TO bel eve this without seeing and hear
ing for yourself is almost impossible. AT
least this is our experience. We tried to
believe, on riewsba per authority which
ought to be equal to the best, ali that was
said of the powers of the Telephone, and
did SO believe as we read of them, but like
the woman who prayed for the removal
of the mountain, and then exclaimed, when
looking upon it next morning, "Tust as l.

.impossibiiity of Transmitting the human
