Feeding Swine During Winter.

+ Swine should be fed oftener than twice
daily, and during the winter the first
feed should be given moderately early,
and the evening feed should be given
not at A or o'clock, as is the custom
with many, but at about $50. Four
teen or fifteen hours between the even-
ing and morning feeds are periods alto
gether too long for comfort and profit,
as the appetite is liable to become raven
ous, the animal gorging itself unduly.
= 1t is great mistake to suppose that
it is only r. Iuired to rush the food into
the hogs stomach, regardless of quanti-
ty or intervals between. The stomach is
of quite moderate capacity, and when
crammed, the process of digestion goes
on like q horse laboring at load he
cannot move, the work being done
tardily, and only partially completed.
In cases of incomplete digestion, a por-
tion of the food given is lost, passing off
through the bowels and going to the
manure pile. The art of feeding there
fore, does not merely consist in shovel
ing out corn, without judgment or limit,
but in studying the natural capacity for
digestion, and feeding to this capacity;
or little inside of it, that all the food
given may be put in shape for assimila-

Tony Pastnr In Trnnhls

Tonv Pastor. OF New York, who Is now

making tour Of the principal cities OF
the Union, is recognized as the leading
character vocalist and variety performer
OF the United States. He owns and runs
a first-class theatre on Broadway. New
York City. and has gathered about him
the best troupe Of variety artists that
could be obtained. The company has
Just completed a brilliant engagement at
the Walnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia,
and after the present tour they will reap
pear in Tony Pastors own Theatre in
New York City. Mr.. Pastor is the origi-
nator Of his peculiar school Of character
singing. and has made himself immensely
popular, having realized by his talents a
large fortune.
The writer of this article met Mr.. Pas.
tor recently at the Bingham House, in
Philadelphia, and found him as genial in
private as he is amusing before the pub
lie. During our conversation enquired
as to his physical health, and he replied
that, Notwithstanding the strain upon
him in the discharge of his professional
dnties, it was excellent He had oc-
casionally severe pains, either the result
complaints of that character never trou-
bled him long. as he had found out a
remedy for all such annoying affections.
asked him what the remedy was, and
he replied, "St. Jacobs OIL" l then
learned from MFR. Pastor that he consid-
cred the Great German Remedy an ex.
cellent preparation for the cure or re-
lief of rheumatism, and that it was about
the only thing used among professional
people for that distressing complaint.
He took bottles of it with him whenever
he went travelling, and would not be
without it, and knew that it was very
popular with a number of members of
his own company. A conversation held
subsequently with various members of
the organization revealed the fact that
st. Jacobs Oil had been performing most
invaluable service for them in
the way of curing them of rheu-
matism. Nearly every artist in the
troupe used 1t, and was enthusiastic in
its praise, ,and.the writer was really forced
to the conclusion that Tony Postor was
certainly in luck in having so valuable
an article known and employed by his
inimitable good company of performers,
for it enabled every one to be always in
his place, thus insuring comfort to the
management and genuine satisfaction to
the public. Tony Pastor would certain
ly be in trouble without st. Jacobs Oil.
At least, other managers whose artists
have been temporarily dnsupplied, have
noticed difference between st. Jacobs Oil
in stock and st. Jacops Oil out of stock
among the members of their companies

Stirred,

Certain incidents in the history of the
universal grief felt at the death of our
martyred Presidents are significant as
showing that the lowest minds may hold
the redeeming trait of an exalted admi-
ration and pure sympathy. A short
time ago there was advertiseda stereop-
ticon lecture on America" to be given
in one of the cheap and dirty theaters in
White-chapel, London. A penny gavo

with rougher seats, where thousand or
more from the humble classes had gath
cred.
The lecturer in the darkened room
took his audience with him on trip
from New York up the Hudson, thence
across to Niagara Falls, and then to
Washington, illustrating each point of
interest with views on the canvas.
Suddenly. while describing the Capt.
tol at Washington, he flashed upon the
screen picture of the statue of Abra-
ham Lincoln.
There was a momentary hush, then
the first applause of the evening came
forth like q. burst of thunder.
A moro impressive scene followed
when, without word of announcement,
the face of Garfield appeared on the
screen. The crowd knew it instantly.
They rose to their feet and gave it roar
after roar of welcome, outburst succeed
ing outburst, so that after several min
utes the lecturer could scarcely proceed.
4 The scene was one to be recalled for q
lifetime-the dusky room, the swaying
audience, the swelling plaudits and this
gathering from the very sink of London
paying its tribute to our two martyrs.

An Upright Judge.


Public attention has recently been in.
vited by the New York Herald to case
OF much interest in its relations to the
liquor traffic in a Westchestcr county
(New York; court. 1t appears that the
overseers of the poor Of the town of
Portchester undertook to compel an old
man OF eighty-two, by legal process, to
provide for drunken, worthless son of
thirty. The old man claimed, and the
claim was not disproved in the court,
that his income was not sufficient to
maintain the family dependent upon
him. among whom we're blind son and
q daughter subject to fits.
With brokon uttCrances he tried To
tell how much he had done for the
drunken son whose maintenance the
town was trying to avoid. All present
were much affected, and the presiding
Judge, greatly to his credit, declined to
grant the order. saying: "The town has
licensed the establishment where this
old mans son buys his rum, SO the town
must take care of the drunkard. / can
not order a man of eigl two to pro-
vide for son who, were it not for rum,
could and should now be caring for his
father" 1t is but partial restitution and
Justice that towns which license the
liquor traffic should thus be compelled
to provide for it's victims.

He Says Arab is Well Backed and has an
Abundance of Arms.
Boston, Sept. PA cable dispatch from
Paris to the Herald says: DeLesseps,
who has just arrived here, in an inter-
view on Egyptian affairs. said that the
first fact that should be known in regard
to the Egyptian matter is that the move
ment is national one. He is convinced
that Arab has a whole nation at his
back. His force at present is between
25,O0O and 10000 Arabs. He has arms
for 100000, and when he needs men can
get them. DeLesseps has every reason
to be satisfied with the manner that Ara.
bi behaved toward the canal The En-
glish had no need of the canal for their
operations. The Arabs have not placed
a price on his head.
On the contrary, after the English had
landed at Suez, he had re-
ceived letter from Arabl saying
he knew it was not his fault,
and giving him notice that the Sweet
Water canal would be cut. The English
sailors had behaved very badly, firing
right and left in the streets and killing
Arab women and children, and one Of
DeLesseps' own employees. :. The Eng
lish army was very we'll orgar.zed. He
thinks the war will be long one, and its
final result connot yet be forecasted. No
serious operations could be undertaken
until the hot weather and the overflow
of the Nile were at an end in October. 1t
was not true that Arab had mutilated

pretext or another. The whole trouble
had been caused by the intrigues of
Malet, and for the purpose of giving
Eagland this opportunity, and he had
not seen any actual fighting, but there had
been many more killed and wounded
among the English then reported. There
were also many cases OF sunstroke, and
some cholera, too. Where he had beer
in Egypt before the troubles begun he
had found some opposition to Arab
among the Bedouin chiefs, but now b.

A Thorough Farmer.

Mr.. j. A. Fields, one of the most thor
ough farmers of Burleigh county. was in
the city Friday, and spoke enthusiastic
cally of the crops for this year and the
general prosperity which awaits the
granger in this section. Mr.. Fields has
one Of the fnestcrops of wheat in Bur-
leigh county, and visitors to his farm all
unite in saying that it will yield over
forty bushels to the acre. Mr.. Fields,
however, confidently counts on thirty five
bushels, and this, after n careful estimate.
The reason his crops are superior to the
majority hereabouts, is because of his
thorough cultivation of the soil. No
matter how rich the ground may be, he
believes in the plentiful use of manure.
and the wisdom Of this course is proven
In its results. He has upon his tree
claim ten acres Of the finest trees in this
section, and says that by actual
measurement his trees had grown
ten feet this year. This, also,
is owing to the fact that MIR. Fields
has given them more attention than any
one else gives to their trees. In short,
this gentleman. who is one Of Burlelgh
county's most ardent lovers, is in every
sense of the word, II farmer, having made
a study Of agriculture in the east before
the rich and plenteous plains of Dakota
we're ever talked about. He was offered
S25.O 90 nm acre for his farm Of 800 acres
but refused, of course, knowing that the
; land would bring him better profit.

Mr.. Bigelow, Sergeant Mason's coun-
sci, intends soon to apply for a writ Of
habeas corpus in the United States cir
cult court for the northern district of
New York, if his client is not released
upon Judge Advocate General Swaim's
opinion, recently submitted to the secre-
tary OF war. Gen. Swain, in this opin-
ion, holds in brief that the court
martial had no jurisdiction to try Mason,
and that there is no evidence in the case
tending to show that Mason committed
the offense charged against him. One of
the points in Bigelow's petition is that
the secretary of war has no judicial au-
thority to overrule the opinion of the
judge acknowledgement.
