The Union Pacific.

Boston, 19.-Uharles Francis Adams,
jr., writes to the Advertiser on the
value Of the Union Pacific stock. He
made thorough investigation of the
property when 8 government director
years ago, and last October spent two
week in careful study OF the line, in
company with officers. He found it
greatly improved in every respect, but
return east found a veritable panic
prevailing. The result OF all my en-
quiTies has been curious in sight into the
ways of Wall street. The list of charges
set a1ost and the reports successfully by
day telegraphed over the country, espec-
tally to New England during ten weeks
would be curiosity. The whole result Of
my investigation satisfied me with the
investment. Believing in the value of
the property and having led others TO
invest, want the control of it 10 New
England The Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy, and Union Pacific constitute,
together, the Broadway or Washington
street Of this continent. They will al
ways be the chief commercial thorough
fare between Chicago and San Francisco.
Other lines will be built through north
and south Of them, but these will be to
the Union Pacific only what Third and
Sixth avenues Sreto broadway. That is
the way it strikes me; the Union Pacific
seems very valuable property. with 8
very great future. SO far as occupying
this country is concerned.

throughout the world. Ia this country,

New York, 19.-The socialist, Berr
Most, who arrived yesterday and spoke
in Cooper Union in the evening, created
very little enthusiasm and received
rather contemptuous notice in all the
papers.
The World says: Herr Most is sadly
muddle headed individual whose mission
appears to be free beer.
The IFiba7le says: His sole claim
to notoriety seems TO be that be is 3 for
eigner who has been in jail about dozen
times. Probably il had his deserts he
would be there still.
The Times says: As az orator, Most
would not earn reputation, as he did
splitting socialistic FIRE through the COL
umns Of q newspaper. His voice is
pitched in high key, there are no mod
ulations in its tones and when be wishes
to emphasize any particular sentence he
simply sereeches and grows red in the
face.
The Herald ssvs: He had better take
to the hand organ business at once.

the senatorial fight. Tabor, Brown and
Hamilton are all quartered at the same
hotel. Gov. Pitkin has returned from
California and commenced to marshal
his forces in earnest. For the next two
weeks the contest will be bitter. Money
will be thrown about on all sides. It
seems to be the purpose Of the supporters
Of the several candidates to take all the
money they can get from the opponents
Of their favoFites, bat cell 40 votes. Any
thing to defeat Pitkin appears to be the
CRY along the line Of candidates. The Sc

leaked out. It is announced that he is also
g candidate for the senstorship and does
not deny that he hopes to sneak in be-
tween the combatsnts.

Oh, MyBack!
That's a common express
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by SO many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver com
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will SO quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Browns IRON BITTERs, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and MAX
ing the blood pure and rich.
VIM. P. Marshall, of Logans-
port, Indiana, writes: -" Mywife
has for many years been trou-
bled from pain in her back
and general debility incident
to her sex. She has taken one
bottle of Browns Iron Bitters,
and can truthfully say that
she has been so much benefited
that she pronounces it the
only remedy of many medi-
cines she has tried"
Leading physicians and

mend Browns IRON BIT

Tomato Culture.

The chief requisites, says Joseph Hsr-
ris, in growing good tomatoes are: First,
good seed of a good variety; second,
good stocky plants, and third, good
warm, dry soil and good cultivation.
The best crop of tomatoes | ever raised
was treated in the following manner:
Seed sOwn in hothed in March, in rows
three inches apart and four or five seeds
to the inch. When two inches high the
plans were removed to another hotbed
and set out in rows five inches apart and
the plants three inches apart in the rows.
AS soon as the plants began to crowd
each other. they were transplanted into
pots and placed in hotbed, the pots be-
ing plunged into the soil level with the
surface. This last point should not be
overlooked 1t gives the roots Of the
plants the needed g bottom heat" and
the heat is much more uniform than if
the pots are simply placed on the top of
the soil in the hotbed. The plants were
allowed plenty of air and soon were
hardened off. The last week in May
the plants were set out in the open
ground, in rows three and a-half feet
apart each way. The land was mellow
and moderately rich. We made good
sized holes with a spade where the plants
were to be set out, and then with a rake
or hoe filled these holes with fine, warm
surface soil, and put tablespoonful of
superphosphate in each hole, and work
it thoroughly into the soil with hoe.
Give the plants thorough watering be-
fore removing them from the pots. Set
the plants deep, or say till the first leaves
are on level with the surface. Press
the loose, mellow soil firmly around the
ball of earth and roots. Keep the ground
very loose and mellow ON the surface by
the constant use of the cultivator and
hoe. If you have no hotbed start the
plants in box of light soil in the kitch-
en- window. When the plants begin to
crowd each other in the box transplant
into other boxes, and when they are we'll
grown harden them off by leaving the
boxes out of doors during the day in fine
weather. Good plants may be raised by
sowing the seed out of doors early in the
spring. Select sheltered spot with a
southern exposure; work into the soil
some dry sifted coal ashes. Sow the
seed in drills, fifteen inches apart For
raising young tomato plants in this way
the soil cannot be too rich. But the land
where the crop is to be grown need only
be in good average condition, except that
it should be very fine and mellow.-N

Pug had objected to going to church,
and the child had carried the strug-
Cling, barking little dog in his arms for
three squares. The sweet baby face
was flushed with the heat and fatigue,
the broad-brimmed hat was pushed far
back over the sunny curls, and Pug had
torn big rent in the sailor dress in his
effort to escape So he climbed up on
one of the green wooden seats, under
the shadow of lilac bush, with Pug in
his arms, and would doubtless have
fallen fast asleep if the choir in the
church just across the street had not
commenced to sing: Et .#
Christ the Lord is risen again,
Christ hath broken every chain"
eve must go now, Pug" t"lat
So the child slipped down, and, tax
ing Pug once more in his arms, walked
across the park to Aunt Prue's church.
The chapel doors in the rear of the
church were open, and in they went.
The people were seated, and fixing
themselves comfortably to listen to the
Easter sermon Fans and dresses
rustled, the light came in through the
great stained windows, and fell in fecks
of red and purple and yellow-here on
a new spring bonnet, there like a flame
on the floor.
Mr.. Dale had risen from his seat to
announce the text, when smile, then
a sound which broadened into a laugh,
broke out all over the congregation.
For there in the doorway of the
church, facing all the people, stood
Jacly with Pug in his arms. No Won
der every one laughed! Straight into
the church stepped the little lad, and
was up on the pulpit stairs before any
one had thought to stop him.
Yes, there was the great cool shaded
church; the sweet music; flowers on the
organ, the altar and everywhere about
the chancel, but the angels with their
white wings-where were they? And
little brother Philip-was he not in this
Heavenly place?
Jacky turned round on the pulpit
stairs and gravely sought Aunt Prue' 8
Gainsborough hat with its nodding
white plumes. Yes, there she sat with
a face all rosy red at the sight of her
dusty nephew and Struggling dog.
1--we brought you your doggy, Aunt
Prue," he said, in his clear, childish
voice, that rang through the arches of
the great church. "And, oh, Aunt
Prue," with trembling lip and the big
tears starting from the blue eyes, there
are no angels here, and can't find
brother Philip for mammal
Papa John, red and wrathful, started
down the aisle toward his young son;
but kind Mr.. Dale, leaving his pulpit,
took the child by the hand, and, giving
him little bunch of fragrant tea-roses
from vase near by, led him into the
vestry.
Jacky went back through the park in
papa's arms, and by the time he reached
home was fast asleep, with the curly
head nestled down .lt,,

Which God made in every human shoulder,
Where He meant some tired head
For comfort should be LAID

A Pathetic Incident Of Life in the
Great City.

AS gentleman was walking up
Broadway day or two ago his atten-
ton was attracted by man ahead of
him, about whom chung an air of shabby
gentility. Suddenly the man sprang
forward and seized a piece of bread that
was lying on the walk. The morsel he
thrust into his mouth and clunched be-
tween his teeth like a famishtd wolf.
The gentleman, like others familiar
with life in New York, had learned to
turn deaf ear upon beggars, but this
spectacle went to his heart. He could
not bear to see person actually suffer-
ing from hunger, and taking coin from
his pocket accosted the man. The poor
wight looked at him in dazed sort of
way. ''Here, my man," said the gen.
tleman, "take this and get something
to eat" The man seized the coin and
dashed away in the direction of cheap
eating house. The gentleman continued
on his way, with feeling of satisfaction
at the thought that he had helped aman
who was really needy. A few blocks
above he stepped into mercantile es-
Enlistment to see about some business
matters. He related the incident in the
street, and one of the persons with whom
he was talking remarked "that man
must make five or ten dollars a day."
Then it was explained that the man was
a fraud. He stopped in front of an es-
Establishment one day to pick up piece
of bread, and the clerks presented quite
a sum of money to him. A day or two
afterward he was seen doing the same
thing in the vicinity and the trick was
exposed. He carried the bread in his
pocket and tossed it on the walk to pick
it up again. The gentleman came down
Broadway meditating on the deceits of
this world, and when he reached his of
fee told how he had been imposed upon.
A gentleman present said a lady friend
saw the same man greedily devour an
apple-core that he had found in the gut
ter. She called him across the street
and gave him fifty cents. The man is a
Frenchman, about forty years old, with
full beard, and generally operates in
the vicinity of Broadway and Houston
streets. IN. Y. Tribune.

MARCH AND APRIL.

A clustering fellow goes proving about:
He losses the snow with scuft1e and shout
And pinches the toes,
The ears and the nose
OF each little darling, wherever he goes
The timid birds hear him and hide their wee
heads,
The moolycows shiver in barns and in sheds.
And sweet flowers say,
II " AT home we will stay
Until this noisy fellow gets out of the way."
A bright little maiden is soon on his track,
And gently, though firmly, she orders him
back.
Oh, fair she appears,
III smiles and in tears;
She calls to the flowers: Come up, pretty
dears.
The birds hear her voice, and they twitter with
glee,
And pink little buds peep the bright sky to
see:
The grass wrinkles out,
And lambs skip about
And, oh, the glad children so m0rily shout!
And who is this clustering chap, can you tell?
And who is this maiden who robes hill and dell,
Whose whisper so arch
Wakes oak-tree and larch?
Why, she is Miss April. and h Mister March.

OverstOcking Pastures.

The overstocking of land is one of the
surest and quickest ways of running past
ures. 1t is an everyday thing with many
farmers, who cannot be made to believe
that they are getting the full benefit of
a pasture unless the grass is eaten of a
little faster than it has time to grow;
consequently all who put this method in
practice always have bare pastures and
poor cattle. The advantages to be de-
rived from allowing the grass to gain on
the cattle during the growing season are
many, among which are the following:
Cattle which are kept growing all the
time come to maturity at a proper age.
Animals kept constantly on bare pastures
never mature properly; those kept ON
good pastures do not have to work day
and night to satisfy their appetites, or
use up all their food in building up a
system worn down by partial starvation.
A good covering of grass is a protection
to pasture. 1t is Natures protection
against the effects of bad and dry wealth
er and the cold rains of winter, so
that new grass will be growing under a
covering of the old crop. 1t is true that
cattle will thrive Better on mixture of
old and new grass, while the seeding of
the mature grasses will keep up the full
variety of those kinds native to the soil.
Consequently pastures thus treated pro-
duce more food for stock during the year
than those kept continually eaten down
to The bare earth. The practice of keep
ing pastures in good condition is easily
done upon large farms, where reserve
fields can be provided but even the small
farmer can succeed in having renewed
and fertile pastures, if he but study the
laws of Nature, andpractice according 20
the knowledge thus acquired. Chicago
