AWen.Planned Scheme.

The Russian Socialist, Prince Krapot-
kin, who has just been expelled from
Switzerland, was aided to escape from
st. Petersburgh in a very ingenious way.
One day he received, in his ration OF
bread, the following message from an
unknown hand: ''When you hear Beet
hoven's Third Waltz played upon a
piano in the house opposite, ask per-
mission to 60 out into the court" Al
though the Prince did not quite under
stand, he nevertheless kept strict watch
for the sound of the waltz. Three days
afterward, in the afternoon, some one
began to play it. He Immediately asked
to be taken into the court. Scarcely had
he reached the yard in company with his
two sentinels than he saw the large gate
to the prison yard open to allow a loaded
wOOd-wagon to enter. The wagon had
not entirely passed the gate when, ap-
parently by accident, it discharged its
load of logs at the entrance. The
Prince, seeing his opportunity, gave a
bound before the wood was entirely out
of the cart, and cleared not only the
gate but two bullets which were fired at
him by his guards. The fallen logs
prevented an immediate pursuit. At
the gate was Cossack horse, saddled,
awaiting the Prince. He. mounted it
and galloped away. Since then the
Russian police have never been able to
find out who it was that played so well

"A correspondent of the San Fran
cisco Examiner, in speaking of the big
trees of Calaveras County, says: elm
the stump of one of these trees a ball
room thirty feet across is built,
and it requires a ladder of eighteen
steps to ascend to the top of the log, on
which was built ten-pin alley. 1t has
been burned up, but the body of the
old, charred monarch of the forest still
remains. Think of ia hollow log,
through which one can ride on horse
back 100 feet and come out through a
knot-hole! There are some ninety of
these big trees, measuring from so to
100 feet in circumference, and reaching
up to the skies-from 800 to $50 feet.
From the rings that denote the annual
growth of these trees science has esti-
mated come of them to be 1000 years
old, while they stand over the fallen
bodies of much older growth, covered
over with earth and large growing
trees, as it is one of the peculiarities Of
this timber not to decay. 1t appears to
be a species of redwood"

The Water Supply in Pastures.

The extreme heat and severe drought
which have prevailed over much of the
country has compelled attention to the
questions of water and shade for stock,
on the part of many farmers. In large
numbers of cases the ordinary sources
of the water supply have failed, and in
considerable regions both labor to the
stock owners and suffering on the part
of the animals have been incurred.
Even where cattle and other farm ami
mails have been able to secure sufficient
water once or twice day by being
driven to it, they could not be expected
to thrive so well as when good water is
accessible to them at all times.
The present loss and inconvenience
may prove an ultimate gain to some
farmers who have relied on ponds, if
they now dig wells, and thus secure, by
.windmills, a constant supply of pure
water, instead of the warm and filthy
liquid to be found in most ponds. The
quantity and good quality of water fur
nished at the outlets of long lines of tile
drains is surprising to one not familiar
with the action of such drains, but in
times of severe drought this supply fails.
For the average farm, good wells-of
large diameter, unless the "vein'' of
water be a strong one-with good
pumps, tanks, and q windmill, are the
best sources of supply. Many such
wells have been dug or deepened this
summer sometimes at considerable cost.
It is some satisfaction to know, how
ever, that if sufficient supply be OBJ
tanned now, there need be little fear for
future years, whereas wells dug in wet
seasons often fail.
We have known a combination of
we'll and a tile drain, by running a
branch of the latter into the well, work
satisfactorily. A disadvantage is that
this plan makes it necessary to have the
well in comparatively low ground.
There are regions in which good wells
can scarcely be found. In such cases,
cisterns for collecting surface water
may be the best attainable source of
supply. The water that runs off even
one acre of ground in the course of
year would supply considerable num-
Der of animals. The land should be
kept in grass. When there is even a
slight slope, little attention in digging
shallow burrows to carry the water to
the cistern will be all that is needed, I'M
less it be planned that the water shall
pass through layer of gravel or some
like substance, which shall partially fiji
ter it.-LiUe Stock Journal.

Capt. James r. Eads has been re-

He was invited to address the British
Association, and spoke of his jetties
and his Isthmus Railway. At the con-
clusion of his remarks he was followed
successfully by Sir William Armstrong
and Sir Frederick Bramwen, both emf
nent engineers, who gave their earnest
adhesion to the plan of the ship railway !;
and last it was resolved to publish Mr..
Eads's speech as part of the transac-
tons of the day-a very marked COM
pliment, such publication of addresses
at these annual meetings being most
exceptional and rare.

Some talk has been excited mere ana vague
