A FEW WORDS

property which the prisoner still possessed
in Adams county, after which Otto said:

children wanted to get rid of you, and so
testified against you at the trial. 1 want
to say to you that have no hard feelings
against you, and only told what was the

i. THE MEETING

yesterday, was therefore expected, would
prove of highly sensational nature, but
the anticipations were hardly realized.
The three children Notified the Sheriff
that they would like to see their father.
They were taken to the Jail entrance and
their wish made known to the prisoner
He signifed his Willingness to converse
with them, and was taken to the cage
which divides the two doors entering the
Jail. One grated door alone separated the
condemned father and his children.
He shook hands in an awkward manner
with his visitors, and remained silent.
There was an apparent embarrassment
about the meeting which was character
istic Of it from beginning to end. Finally
Otto created conversation by stating
that his mother had sent d letter which she
wished delivered to her husband. The
letter was examined by the sheriff and
given to the prisoner.

A very strange and at the same time sad
meeting occurred yesterday afternoon in

the cath of the present month, and his
three children. Otto, Annie and Gus. The
former is the Oldest of the family. Hewas
the husband of the woman for whose muir
der the old man is to swing. He, as well
as his sister Annie, gave some very dam
aging testimony against their father during
the recent trial, and the murderer has ex-
pressed his disapprobation at their conduct
and evidence. He has been especially Sc
we're against Otto. He insinuates that
Otto had motive in placing the guilt
upon his own father. The main points
which Otto testified to was that he found
the print of human form in the earth
Immediately under the corn shock which
the murderer constructed on the
Tuesday morning after the murder. Armies
testimony, which displeased her father,
was that she heard his voice at Dora's
house on the Monday night of the murder,
between 10 and II o'clock.

ANGER.

The old man became flushed in the face
and his voice and actions denoted that he
was angry. He leaned against the door
and paused as if in thought. Then he
said, "well your sorrow about me wont do
me much good"
Otto asked him if he did not think it
would be good idea to have preacher
visit him and talk with him. To this the
old man replied that there was a preacher
who had visited him, and he did not want
the preacher named by his son. He said
that preachers could do him little good
ANNIE
Who had been crying during the talk
between her brother and father, was called
by her father who asked her if she was
positive that she heard his voice at Dora's
house on the Monday night of the murder
The young girl, between her sobs, replied
that she heard his voice distinctly on that
memorable night.

prisoners next question.

Otto who was at his sisters elbow did |
not give her chance to reply but spoke t
out and said: How does it happen that |
you did not hear the pistol shot?"
The prisoner made no reply, and Otto
continued: IF you did not commit the

How Labor is protected, in Frisco.

A few facts for the laboring men and me-
chanics of the country, which We ask them
to read carefully. And after you read them,
SIT down and take your pipes and smoke
over them. They will bear thinking about
There are three important industries in
the city of San Francisco which employ
skilled labor. Upon the raw material as well
as the manufactured articles of each there is
a protective tariff.
First fact-In the manufacture of boots
and shoes there are employed 500 Chinese.
There are employed in the same business
/, 100 white laborers.
Second fact-In the manufacture of cloth
ing there are employed I, $40 Chinese.
In the same business there are employed
1000 white laborers
Fact third--ln the manufacture of cigars
there are employed $500 Chinese.
ln.the same business 179 white laborerS
are employed.
Fact fourth-Of the 23,9S9 laborers en-
ployed, mechanics, q, $40 are Chinese and
2,279 are white
Laboring men, think of this while you
are smoking your pipes.
Then, again, don't forget this, that the
raw material and the products are all pro-
tected by high tariff Now ask yourselves
if your labor is protected. Asks yourselves
if the Republicans, through their Presi.
dents veto, are for the protection of labor
or for the protection Of capital alone2
Here are q, $40 Chinese employed, to the
exclusion of white labor. No one of them
brings his wife or children with him to con
sumo the products of labor. They carry
everything back with them. They live upon
the filth and Offal of the cities. This is the
class of men intended by the Republican:
to Supersede white labor.

Usage Orange Hedges.

Hedges are the best protection against
depredations of cattle and pilferers, but it
often tries the patience of the farmer before
he can get hedge in good condition. The
strongest prejudice against the Usage orange
is on account of the difficulty of causing the
seeds to grow, and many failures and dis
couragements arise from this source. The
cost Of buying plants for large hedge
amounts 10 quite a sum. To cause them to
sprout, put the seeds in a large tub and pour
warm water over them, apd cover the tub
over with blanket or two in order to re-
tain the heat as long as possible. The water
should be about as warm as the hand can
and let it remain in the water until the next
morning, when the treatment should be re-
peated The water should be changed morn
ing and evening until the hull of the seed is
well softened (about four or five days., when
the water should be drained off and the seed
kept covered until signs of sprouting appear.
As soon as the seed sprouts sprinkle thor
oughly with gypsum (plaster), and sow in
drills two inches deep. When of sufficient
height set the plants out about six inches
apart, if very close hedge is wanted. but a
foot apart is better. Bend the growing
branches and weave and interlace them,
commencing close 10 the ground. Keep the
hedge cut back fortwo or three seasons, in
order to thicken it, and trim we'll every year.
The roots are great spreadeIs, often running
out and sending shoots In places where they
are not desired. This can be prevented by
blowing deeply on both sides of the hedge
in the fall and spring, and hoeing out the
shoots when they appear out of place.

The Retert Sarcastic.
IClermont Council

Judge Tarbell tells the following good
joke on himself: A short time after bis
retirement from the bench he happened to
meet an old friend whom he had not seen
for some time. The Judge, all smiles and
heartiness, effervesced over his "dear
friend" in such way as TO provoke the in
quiry:
What office are you candidate for now,
JudgeT'
The Judge made deprecatory movement
with an outward-turned palm, and said
For none at all, my dear brother; I'm
simply a candidate for the Kingdom Of
Heaven"
His friend regarded him sorrowfully fo1
an instant, and then with more wit than po-
likeness, and more profanity than either
said: "Pll bet you don't carry a id Town
ship"
Doubtless the Judge lost sight OF the
mans profanity in admiration of his sub
timely truthful candor.

Kin the Potato "Bugs. {.

1t is important to destroy the first brood of
potato beetles. This brood comes from the
ground in early spring, and the beetles soon
lay their orange-colored eggs in clusters on
the under side of potato leaves. These eggs are
readily found by turning up the foliage with
a hoe handle, and picked Oft and destroyed.

Taking Produce to Market.

be observed in preparing the articles for
