preached a tremendous sermon on the in

hearers were in convulsion OF exciiemen,
With the blazing picture of a sulphurous
reirihu,ion before their imiginstions. All
nj once he stopped in the very midst OF an
eloquent appeal and cried out. "Now all OF
you who sincerely repent OF your sins, hold

accepted. They slso turned over two gold
watches. SEQ, their jew-lfy and their shot
guns. The horsemen rode off, Carrying all
the above with them. The English bloods
returned TO the town and at once notified
the owner Of the guns OF their ana biz los.
He informed them the guns had been re-
turned. and pointed TO them standing In the
corner. The owner advised them not TO
trouble themselves about them or the cir

Chinese Grass.

The ramie, ranch, rhea, China grass.
or wild hemp-it is generally known by
the last named term in this country,
where it is indigenous-in assuming
much prospective Importance; men,
ton has already been made of it as used
in producing what is called "cosmos
wool" 1t belongs to the nettle family,
but is stingless. It's stems grow straight
and in punches, filled with pith and
surrounded by fibrous mantle covered
by a thick red skin, the tibres them
selves bound together by resinous
substance. 1t is q perennial plant, not
annual, like flax and hemp; age in
creases its strength and fertility, and it
resists drouth and wet. though injured
by frost except in the roots. In France
it retains height of two to two and q
half metres, and in its Eastern home
twice that 1t can be propagated from
either seeds or cuttings. The leaves
when dried make the tough Chinese
paper SO well known, and the green
ones are good fodder for the cattle.
Except thatit luxuriant growth requires
manuring, its cultivation is most simple;
hoeing and digging are needed only the
first year, for the plant itself thereafter
grows 80 luxuriantly as to smother all
weeds. It is estimated to yield q crop
worth $3.50 to $3.50 per hectare. The
1000 or 5000 kilos of leaves are reck-
oned to pay for cultivation. besides
1900 to 200 kilos of fibre, from which
1900 to 1850 kilos of white hacked
linen can be spun. English and Belgian
makers now buy ramie from China at
thirty-five cents . kilo. selling it, after
hacking and spinning, at 81. 40 to $3.50.
The tenacity Of fibre is to that of fax as
125 to 80. The Chinese make the
coarsest nets from it and fabrics re-
sembling the finest batiste. The re-
moval Of the glutinous substance in
closing the fibre is the most difficult
process, but for that and the separation
from the woody tissue mechanical means
are now employed with growing sue
cess. Culture of the plant is progress
ing in Southern France. and the high
est expectations are entertained con-
corning it. In India, in 1870, the Gov
eminent recognized its value by Offering
q prize of f5.OOO for the best machine
for preparing the fibre. Only one ma
chine was offered, and it proved inn
perfect, but the offer has been kept
open. How far this curious plant is
suited for cultivation in this country
does not yet appear, and it seems to
have attracted. thus far, comparatively
little attention from Americans.-M r
