WEST COvINGTON, KY.
The Benevolent Terrier.
Paris Letter to Picayune.l

There is a terrier in a cafe, Rue st.
Honore, that no sooner sees an habitual
customer enter than he runs up to the
new conner, opens his mouth, and looks
implorlngly at the customer. The latter
so we'll understands the pantomime that
he puts a SOU in the open mouth. The
terrier bounds to the door, and in an in
slant is at the nearest pastry cooks.
The latter gives the dog cake, which
the latter brings to his benefactor, who
breaks the cake into three pieces. One
is forthwith given to the terrier; the dog,
having eaten it, stands on his hind legs,
let's the customer put the second piece
of cake on his (the dog's) nose, lets it
stay there untouched until the gentle
man raps ten times ON the table; at the
tenth rap the terrier tosses the cake in
the air and catches it before it falls to
the floor.
The gentleman then takes the third
piece Of cake in his hand and says:
"Billt, you have eaten two of the three
pieces of cake. There are thousands of
dogs in Paris who have never tasted a
piece Of cake. Now, Billy, if you be a
gentleman-and l believe you are gen.
tleman, Billy-you will take this third
piece of cake and lay it in the street for
dogs that are not as well off in this world
as you are." The terrier takes the third
piece of cake in his mouth, carries it to
the street, leaves it there, returns it to
the customer, looks inquiringly at him,
as much as to ask, "Have done the gen.
teei thingT' and lies down to dozs until
another customer enters.

CHICAGO April 6.-The local elections of
yesterday in Illinois, Indiana and Michigan
as far as reported appear to be pretty evenly
divided between the Republicans, DEM
ocrats and Citizens tickets. The Repub-
lcans carried the day in Michigan-at
Holland, Lansing, Benton Harbor, Battle
Creek and St Joseph; the Democrats were
victorious at Manistee, Charlotte, Luding-
ton and Ann Arbor. The Citizens ticket
was elected at Adrian; also at Monmouth
and Genesee, Illinois.
CHICAGO, ILL, April 6-Elections yester-
day occurred in Iowa and Illinois, the Re
publicans generally carrying the day.
Temperance candidates in some instances
were elected.
The Chicago municipal and town cleo
tions are in progress to-day. The Repub-
licans are confident OF electing majority
of their ticket as the day is fine, but the
Democrats will make strong fight to main
tain the hold on the city government which
they secured when Mayor Harrison was
elected last year.

WooD ASHES IN D%RoUGIT.-l the
spring of 1878 | planted a few acres to corn
soil a light loan with sandy sub soil. Tn
leached ashes were applied ut the rate of
not less than sixty bushels per acre, and the
crop was a good one. In the spring 1879 |
put the same surface in potatoes, with no
manure at the time of planting. just as
they began to come up, a coat OF ashes was
spread on top of the ground, about fifty
bushels per acre The supply ran short,
leaving threc-fourths of an acre to b. ma
nured from a large heap of nice compost.
The land seems precisely alike in all respect
all was planted at the same time, with the
same variety of potatoes, cultivated in the
same manner, and as we'll as know how
to cultivate. The season was exceedingly
dry in this county, and the potato crop
almost a failure in consequence. Repeated
experiments have proved to me that where
land is MANFRED with fine compost the crops
resist drought much better than where there
Is none, or where a very coarse manure Is
used. When the dry weather came, | fully
expected to see the potatoes where the ashes
were suffer frem the dry weather first. To
my surprise the reverse of this was the
case.
The dry weather continued until the soil
was like baked ashes. The potatoes where
the manure had been put dropped almost
died, while the first TOW, only three feet
away, but where ashes had been spread,
showed a most marked difference, and it so
continued through the season. When the
crop was dug, the land where the ashes were
yielded about l5O bushels of nice potatoes
per acre, while the portion where the fine
manure was yielded not more than half az
many bushels, and a large proportion of
them were too small for market. | have
no doubt but that the land where the ashes
were would have yielded at least double what
ltd.d il I'd il not been for the drought. | am
N.e!i aware thar hes are an excellent
manure. havins used many thousand bushels
during the last ten OF fifteen years. ". \

Murder in Missouri.

Chicago, July 16.-The Times has a
special detailing exciting events in Car
rol county, Arkansas, by which thievish
tramp and two citizens lost their lives.
J. M. Morris, farmer, found on return
ing to his house from the fields that it
had been plundered in his absence. He
gave chase and ran the thief down into
Scott county, Mo. The tramp smilingly
said he would surrender, but five seconds
later drew pistol while his captor was
off his guard and shot him through the
heart. The tramp then escaped back into
Arkansas where the sheriff and eight men
finally ran him down at the home of an
old man supposed to be his father. They
surrounded the house and when he ap-
peared in the door opened fire simulta-
neously causing the dust to fly from his
clothes, but not mortally wounding him.
He returned the fire with pistol in
either hand, and while they were
reloading he took to fields.
The posse followed him and firing anoth-
hr volley brought him to the ground ap-
parently dead, but when one OF the party,
q Mr.. Jones, went to take look at the
most daring man that ever lived, the fel-
law pointed a pistol at his head and
fired, Jones falling back dead. The des-
perado wounded in several places soon
after expired. He is believed to have
been concerned in many dark deeds of
late in that section.
