A MuRpERoUs FANATIC.

Cairo has recently been plunged into
profound CONSERVATION by the discovery of
an appalling crime-or rather, series OF
crimes-perpetrate in that city by a relig
ious recluse, Sheik Hamuda Berda, hith-
erto enjoying a high reputation for sanctity,
and even popularity credited with super
natural powers of extraordinary efficaclous-
ness in the way of curing female patients
by holy spells impaired to him by the
Prophet. Women were won't to make pill
grimages from all parts of lower Egypt to
the house of this supposed saint, in order
to solicit his intercession with Allah on
their behalf About three weeks ago
the wife of an Egyptian officer be-
took herself to the Sheik's residence
for this purpose. When, however,
several hours had elapsed without any
thing having been heard or seen OF her
since she entered Hamuda's doors, her
husband applied to the Cairo police for as
sistance to discover her whereabouts, and
a rigid search was forthwith instituted in
the holy mans domicile. To the horror Of
the unfortunate officer, his wife's body was
found, with several other female corpses,
thrust into a huge cistern standing In the
Sheik's garden. The cistern, in fact, was
brinlful of murdered women. Hamuda
Berds, arrested on the spot and conveyed
to prison, subsequently confessed to the
Cadi that it had been his practice for some
time past, whenever consulted by female
possessed of rich jewels or other portable
property of value, to invite his visitor to
take turn with him in the garden, where
he would then proceed to strangle her. de-
spoil her remains and fling them into his
cistern. Egyptian justice has probably by
this time made an example of this sanity
parsonage by hanging him up in front OF
his own house door London Telegraph.

SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND MELONS.

On the borders of Scott and Mississippi
counties, IN this State, is one of the big
gest and most productive watermelon
patches in the United States, equaling, if
not excelling, in the peculiar soil required
and climatic condition, the far-famed melon
patches of Georgia. Indiana and the east
ern shore of Maryland. The tract so cele-
brated comprises sandy prairie, four miles
wide and ten miles long, with a thin, warm
soil, just adapted to the cultivation of the
melon, and such melons as are raised no.
where else in that region. There is much
richer and deeper soil all around there, but
it is not adapted TO melon culture. This
land is capable of producing 900 melons
to the acre. At place called Diehlstadt,
in Scott county, there were shipped the
past season 439 car loads of |, 200 to the
car, and Bertrand, in Mississippi county,
shipped $50 car loads mostly to Chicago.
The melon country was visited by twenty.
five commission merchants from Chicago,
who paid as low as $40 and as high as $40
per car load, being an average of $40
per car, the market price varying with
the advance of the season and the
same time. Most of these melons
WcIc slllppeu over Ine Sdiro anu iuCSHHeS
and Illinois Central Railroad in fruit
cars, properly ventilated and arranged for
the purpose. These melons found their
way not only to st. Louis and Chicago, but
to most of the lake cities, and even to New
York and Philadelphia. Melons are get
ting to be such staple of production that |
the cultivators are asking for increased |
railroad facilities to move the product at
the proper season, and yesterday the Hon.
Henry ]. Deal, the newly elected member
of the Legislature from Charleston, Missis-
sippi county, applied to Superintendent
Soper, of the Iron Mountain Railroad, with
petition numerously signed, representing
that they will plant 700 acres more next
year in melons if the railroad will give
them side track and station at point on
the Iron Mountain Railroad three miles
north of Charleston, to be called Melon
Station. Mr. Soper gave assurances that
he would comply with the request of the
petition. Colonel Deal estimates that 700
acres ought to produce 700 carloads, at the
rate of 1000 melons to the acre, making
700, 900 melons. One man can attend to
twenty-five acres of melons. The variety
of seed used is that of the Georgia melon,
which is very luscious and grows to a great
size, some weighing as high as sixty pounds.
The hills are planted fourteen feet each
way apart, and from three to four seeds
are put in hill. They commence ship.
ping melons about the Goth of July ard
continue to the last of August. -TSt. Louis

About 10 o'clock Saturday night there was
lively blowing of police whistles. at Fifth

crowd in consequence. No arrests were
made, and as far as can be learned the trouble

a lady by force, by man whose identity has
thus far not been made public.
George Coulter Of Yolo while gathering
driftwood near the railroad bridge on Friday

not have gained the shore.
