WHAT THERE is IN WHEAT.-The
wheat grain is a fruit consisting of seed
and its covering. All the middle part of
the grain is occupied by large, thin cells
full of powdery substance, which con-
tains all the starch of the wheat. Out
side the central starchy mass is single
row of squarish cells filled with yellow
ish material, very rich in nitrogenous,
that is, fesh-torming matter. Beyond
this again there are six thin coats or COW
erings containing much mineral matter,
both of potash and phosphates. The
outcrmost coat is of but little value. The
mill products of these coverings of the
seed are peculiarly rich in nutriment, and
fine -four is robbed of large percentage
of valuable and nutritious food. Mid
dlings not only contain more fibrin and
mineral matter than fine flour, but also
more fat. The Gbrous matter or outer
coat, which is indigestiblc, forms one
sixth of the bran but not one-llundredth
of the fine flour. Wheat contains the
greatest quantity of gluten and the small
est of starch rye, medium proportion
of both, while in barley, oats and corn.
the smallest proportion of and the small
est of gluten arc to be found. In prac.
tice 100 pounds Of -four will make from
1873 to 1877 pounds OF bread; a good aver
age being 1856 pounds; hence barrel o
l96 pounds should yield 266 one pound
loaves.

A Duel to the Death.

Col. Alexander and Col. Smiley were
prominent claimants of mining lands at
Silver City. Some dispute arose as to 4
claim. Being unable to settle it satisfac.
torily, the dispute augmented into a
quarrel, and the quarrel into violent
threats. 1t was well-known that both
parties were men Of nerve. Smiley had
won reputation of being desperate in
personal encounter. Alexander, though
he had never been credited with she'd
ding blood, was considered man with
whom it would not be safe to trife. All
efforts to settle the misunderstanding
failed, and those who were acquainted
with the circumstances expected that
bloodshed would be the ultimate result.
The day when the encounter took place,
Smiley came to Hot Springs. Alexander
was in the town. Smiley went to the
bank and asked of the cashier:
"Have you seen Alexander ?"
The cashier replied that he had not
seen him, but understood that he was in
town.
81 am going to kill him before 4
O'clock" exclaimed Smiley, and, turning,
left the bank. After leaving the bank,
he had not gone far when he met Alex
ander. The furious aspect Immediately
assumed by each man illustrated the fact
that violence would ensue. Alexander
drew large revolver and, rushing upon
Smiley, struck him over the head
Smiley staggered back, and drew
French self-cocking revolver, and, with
rapidity almost beyond the capacity Of
enumeration, fired six shots at Alexan-
der. Three shots took effect, a ball strik-
ing each arm and another going through
the lungs. Alexander's pistol dropped
from his hand. He attempted to recover
it, but his right arm had been parayzed
by the ball. He grasped it with his left
hand, but the left arm having also been
wounded, he was unable to cock the
weapon. Smiley was upon him. With
cool, desperate presence of mind, Alex
ander kicked his pistol into saloon, near
which the encounter occurred. Then en-
tering, he stopped and caught the muzzlc
of his pistol with his left hand, raised it
up, and cooked it with his foot. He
lifted the pistol from the floor. Smiley
stood outside, peeping around a door
post, with only part of his head ex-
posed. Alexander neryously lifted the
weapon, took deliberate aim and fired.
The ball plowed along the post behind
which Smiley stood, half burying itself,
and, striking Smiley in the forehead,
went through his brain. Smiley fell
dead, and Alexander, turning, sank from
loss of blood.
A large crowd witnessed the encounter,
and the greatest of excitement prevailed.
The wonder is that several men were not
killed, for when Smiley fred the six
shots, the sidewalk was crowded with
people. The weapons used were not the
parlor pistols, but the brand intended to
kill, almost regardless of distance. One
of the balls from Smiley's pistol went
through a signboard and buried itself in
another. The mark on the door post,
made by the ball which killed Smiley, is
full six feet from the sidewalk. Nine
men out of ten would have escaped, as
the deadly missile would have passed
harmlessly over.-LiHle Rock (Ark.) Ga

Escape Of C0nricts.

On Thursday evening last, about
o'clock p. M, two white convicts, named
Charles Keene and Charles Gainey, made
their escape from the stockade of the At
Iantic and French Broad Valley Rail-
road. They we're both on the sick list,
and were doing light work about the
stockade. They asked permission to 60
to the spring, about $50 yards distant
from the camp, and the guard foolishly
permitted them to do so. They procured
a mattock, and when out of sight cut off
their shackles and left. The guard was
sent in pursuit within a half hour after
their escape; the settlement was aroused
and others besides the guards started out
on the hunt for them. Capt. Kirk at
once offered a reward of $50 each for
them, but they succeeded in eludilg their
pursuers, and would have probably made
good their escape had they not broke into
and robbed the house of a widow lady,
Mrs. Carter, in the neighborhood of Mile
Creek postofice, about Is miles from
camp. They had procured change of
clothes at wash place on Saturday
morning, just after they had crossed a
stream, probably Rice's Creek or Twelve
Mile River, but could not resist their
natural instincts to plumber and steal,
and in the evening of the same day broke
into the house of the widow lady, as
above stated, and stole therefrom lot
more clothing. They changed clothes at
the wash place where they first obtained
them and hid their convict suits in hol.
low log down the branch just below the
spring. When it was discovered that
Mrs. Carter's house had been robbed,
party started in pursuit of the robbers,
not knowing them to be escaped convicts,
and captured them in the neighborhood
of Kings store, on Little Eastatoe. In
returning to Trial Justice Parrott's house
with them for preliminary trial, Keene
succeeded in freeing himself from the
the woods at the rate of about 2:4J. The
guard fired at him, but without effect.
On Sunday morning he was Jumped up"
on Woodall Mountain and closely pur-
sued, but up to this writing We have not
heard whether he has been recaptured or
not. Keene halls from Thomasyille, N.
G., and is said to be a desperate char
acter, having broken Jail twice before he
was put in the Penitentiary-once in
Virginia and once in North Carolina.
It is said that Keene is not his real name.
Gainey was brought to this place and
lodged in Jail until Monday morning,
when he was carried to the stockade.
Capt. Kirk has raised the reward for
Keene to $50. Both Keene and Gainey
we're convicted at Cheraw for the crime
of cow stealing. On Monday morning
negro by the name of Ben Wesley, who
halls from Hopkins Turnout, Richland
County, who had been made "trusty,"
and was water carrier, stepped off and
took the public road toward Williamson.
1t is probable that he has been captured
before this.-Pckens Sentinel

A WARSISG.-An intelligent writer
calls the attention of consumers of kero-
scne oil to the perncious and unhealthy
practice Of using lamps filled with that
article with the wicks turned down. The
gas which should be consumed by the
flames is by this means left heavily in
the air, while the cost of the oil thus
saved, at the present prices, would scarce
ly be one dollar a year for the lamps of a
household. His attention was called
particularly to this custom while board
ing in the country, where kerosene was
the only available light. \ large family
of children living in the house were
taken i'll one night, and on going to the
nursery the mother found the room near
ly sufocating, with the lamp turned
down; whereupon the physician forbade
the use of lamp a. night, unless turned
at full head. He says he could quote
many cases, one of a young girl subject
to fits of faintness, which, if not induced,
were greatly increased by sleeping in a
room with the lamp almost turned out
Besides the damage to health, it spells
the paper and curtains, soils the mirrors
and windows, aud gives the whole house
an untidy air and an unwholsesome odor

The HOyeIS OF Ireland.

Mr.. James Redpath describes in his
last letter ride in the Parish of Island.
addy, in the County Mayo, which he
visited in conducting his investigations
of the Irish famine for the New York
Tribune. He gives vivid glimpse of the
destitution of the Irish peasantry-all
the stronger as he makes no effort at
picturesque description, but gives rather
catalogue of effects than an artistic pic
ture. We quote:
"There were still more dreadful scenes
in the other cabins. / know no farmer
in the East or West who keeps his cattle
in such foul stables. And yet children
and infants, and mothers and stalwart
workingmen-not beggars, but honest
fellows, willing and eager to work-have
been born and reared and married in
these dreadful dens, none of them hay.
ing any other floors save the cold black
earth none of them having windows lar
ger than two feet by eighteen inches,
and nearly all of them having COWS or
horses or donkeys in the same room, un-
divided either by stone wall or parti-
tion of any kind. Heaps Of oozing muck
at the doors The last cabin filled me
with dismay. 1t was dark and dirty and
small. There were little heaps of what is
called bog DEAL and furzc, as fuel, and
a little peat fire. Bog deal' is the roots
of ancient fir trees that have been pre-.
served in the moist bog. No one remem-
bers when the fir trees grew. They dis
appeared a generation ago. An old wo-
man, at least seventy years old, with
white hair, discolored by the smoke of
the cabin, and clad in foul rags, with her
bare feet on the wet floor, haggard and
hideous from want, sat on an old ricketty
chair, and told me she had been twice
married-once to q man named Conway,
once to a man named Flynn, and that
she had two sons, one by each husband,
in the United States. They had not
written to her for years, she said, but had
left her, in her decripit age, to beg aims
or to starye. One of these sons lives in
Scranton, the other in Philadelphia.
Her granddaughter, beautiful young
girl of fourteen or sixteen, was working
with a spade in the garden. There are
very few girls with refined features and
intelligent expressions in these novels
But it is pathetic to meet girl such as
this girl, who, if born in America and
educated in our public schools, would in
all human probability have become the
honored and admired mother of 9
wealthy home. This girls beauty would
almost have guaranteed her that rank iu
America. Twenty years hence, if she
lives here. she will be ugly and wrinkled
like the rest. On Sunday saw an old
woman and man, with their young son
sitting around basket, the lid of which
inverted, held their Sunday dinner
There was saucer in it. 1t held sail
water-common salt dissolved. The resi-
of the meal consisted of cold potatoes
that was all. / recalled it az [ saw the
little children of one of these novels
crowded around the pot with the colo
Indian meal porridge. When l wen
back to the hotel a Castlebar banker tolt
me that there was far less distress thar
was talked about, and that Ireland hae
never been better off.
