The Teiegram's Washington special says
that the effect of the designations on the
Senate was indescribable. Not that there
were any noisy demonstrations but every
one for Il moment seemed to be struck dumb.
All con lectures as to the result of the fight
between the President and Conkling, even
the widest, never reached such a denoue-
ment. The galleries were also convulsed
with excitement. Beaten in advance they
have resigned, said Western Senator to a
New England neighbor. Don't be too
sure, was the reply, there's something be-
hind all this" Some, whose confidence in
the fertility of Conkling's resources in fight
was mistaken, claimed the designations
would prove harder nut for the President
to crack than any he has encountered.
Quitting the field Immediately before the
battle can have only one Interpretation say
others, that is, an acknowledgment of defeat
beforehand.
When the Jews was communicated TO the
President Le was seized with the same feel
ing of sturefaction and establishment that
affected all others who had heard it. He ex-

Whitaker Cut His Own Ears.

WAsHINGToN, August 16.-The tenor
of the verdict in the Whitaker case
has been the subject of good deal Of
speculation. 1t has been generally un.
derstood that it was averse to Whitta.
ker, but this was not positively known
until now. The report of the court
martial arrived at the office of the
Judge Advocate General some time
ago, but owing to General Swaim's at
tendance upon the patient at the White
House it was not examined 1t is now
being revised and will be ready for sub
mission to the President for his final
action just as soon as he is able to give
his attention TO it. The essence of the
verdict is the finding of Whitaker gull
ty Of committing the alleged outrage
on himself This verdict IS unanimous
and is coupled with the unanimous rec
ommendation that he be dismissed from
the service. The Judge Advocate Gener-
al will approve this verdict, there is not
the slightest doubt about that, and thus
will end the most remarkable military
trial on record. 1t has cost the govern
ment nearly $4,000 to decide who
mutilated Whittaker's ears, and even
now, when it is all over and the verdict
is that the boy himself did the Job to
excite public sympathy, it will be re-
ceived with some doubt by a good many
people.

Jnly Storms IN tho Snn

he sun was storm swept through tn e
whole month. The clear air that ring
ed the earth on the 1st was soon after
filled with clouds and thunder storms,
and was swirled here and there into
death-dealing tornadoes, so that the
astronomers telescope became useless.
But III all the intervals of fair weather
it showed the suns face yet spotted
and wrinkled and trimmed with erupt-
ions of flaming gas. In the middle of
the month some ofthe spots, or holes,
were of enormous magnitude, and of
wonderful eomplexity in shape and de-
tail Again at the close of the month
huge groups and rows of spots were
stretched across the disk, and the view
with high magnifiers was startling and
exceedingly impressive.
The most that astronomers are able
to say with confidence about these spots
is that they are holes Of size and depth
almost beyond belief; that they are pro
duced by disturbances in the glowing
matter of the sun, and that they are
governed by some law that causes
them to wax and wane in number, in a
period ofabout eleven years. There
were no spots to speak of in 1878; they
began to appear frequently in 1880; in
1888 they will be most numerous, and
in 1889 the sun will again be free from
them.-NelC York Sun.

The Best Way to Keep Tomatoes.

An old Illinois farmer, who is blessed,
as mos. all farmers are, with an excellent
wife, has during the whole year, when
occasion requires it, the choicest toma-
toes served up on his table. In answer
to the question how he was able to
keep them IN such an excellent manner,
he replied that it was the handiwork OF
his wife; that the tomatoes were dried,
which preserved al Of their original
qualities. Here is the way she mara
ges them: The fruit to be fully ripe,
strained through sieve, slowly cooked
half an hour, then spread on clean
plates and dried In an oven, the whole
process requiring about two days before
the fruit viii be ready to be packed
away. 1t viii keep for years. and be
just as good and fresh as If just pluck

not be expected to risk any money or
pay anything until he has sold 1926
worth of the machines. He is induced
to sign the contract above given, which,
it will be seen, sets forth the agree
ment when read straight across. Ii
looks fair and innocent enough, and
soon the farmer typilied in the forego-
ing document Is Thos. Brown, puts his
uame in tie blank space just before the
words, Sole Agent for --C Com
pany. Afterwards the scamps easily
change the document from d contract
to sell, into 4 promissory note by ear
ing of that part to the right Of the li,e
drawn through the agreement as print
ed. In the original presented 70 the
farmers, of course no line appears; and
it is given here simply to show where
the division takes Place, and the sepa-
ration at which point, so radically
cha ges the nature of the document.
IL will be seen mt a glance that this is
liable to deceive anyone without close
inspection, and number of Indiana
farmers have been cheated with them
this summer. The last heard of the
gang they were operating extensively
in Bartholomew county. After the
farmers notes get into the hands of "in-
nocent purchasers" there is no re-
course but to pay them OIL, as they
cannot well 90 back on the signatures.
