A Wrong Theory.

Samuel Shin has learned lesson
which will remain fresh in his mind if
he lives to be ten thousand years old
As he entered the lodge to arrange the
chairs and benches for the opening OF
the regular Saturday night meeting, he
discovered big watermelon on the
stove. Samuel is not always a rcSpecter
of the rights Of property. His every
day theory is: ITO the finder belongs
the Watermelon" Having no doubt
that this fruit had been left behind 10y
some member at the last meeting, and
hoping that he had time to deyour the
whole of it before any one should come
in, he proceeded to business. Scarcely
had he laid hands on the melon before
there was an explosion which upset
everything in the room and landed
Samuel under the lavender bench forty
feet away. lie received three cuts on
the nose, two on the chin, had his wool
badly frizzled, and it will be seven
weeks before he will be able to wink
with his left eye.
"Gem'le len, trust dat dis lesson
will sink deep into yer hearts an be
token fur a solemn warnin,h said
Brother Gardner, as he opened the
meeting. 'ln de fust place de pusson
who lets his curiosity lead him aroun'
by de nose will trabblc in the swamps
as often as on de highway. In de mex

Shin stood off distance of ten feet an

Sheen and Improved Farming.

Sheep have played most important
part in the Improvement OF the soil in
all civilized countries. At an early
period, sheep were kept mostly for their
wool in all countries; but as populations
increased, and greater demand was
made upon the soil to furnish food, NUT
ton became the principal object of sheep
farming, and wool the incident. Dur
ing this transition state, skillful breed
crs made long, careful, and practical
study in improving the carcass and its
early maturity. Instead OF keeping
sheep to their full age as breeders and
producers of wool, the most persever-
inc effort was made to mature them for
u profitable market at the earliest date.
This was done by judicious selections in
breeding, and the most generous feed
ing. The sheep, like other animals,
was found plastic in the hands of askill-
full breeder and feeder. 1t was soon
found that the improved Southdown and
Cotswod could be fitted for the most
profitable market at from six to fifteen
months old except those required for
DTccueIS, anu lHesc Weio hioou PioHtapiy
turned at four to five years old, instead
of at seven or ten years.
The consumption of mutton is in
crossing in this country, especially in
our large cities, and it has become prof
liable to supply this demand. 1t is
profitable, first, because the price is re-
munerative, and secondly, because it is
promotive of good husbandry-the i'm
provement of the soil.-NationaI Liue-

How Tarantulas Fight,

There was recently received in Den
yer, for store exhibition, two full-grown
tarantulas, one of the brown and the
other of the black variety. The brown
fellow was Gagged in q common cigar
box and the black one in glass jar. As
they could not be exhibited to advant-
age in contrivances of this kind, and as
they were not very pleasant company to
have running about loose, box almost
two feet square with a glass top was
procured, on the bottom of which lay
er OF sand was spread to make the ami
mails feel at home, The cover was then
drawn and the two spider pitched into
1t from their separate cages. No soon
er did the one discover the others pres
ence than they rushed at each other as
viciously rs two panthers, and immedi-
atcly closed in deadly embrace. They
came together with II bound, and then
twining their long hairy legs about
each other rolled over and over in the
sand, biting each other savagely, and
then Juggling with all their might as if
endcavoring to crush each other by
sheer muscular power Incredible as it
may seem, this sort of warfare was kept
upfor six hours, during most of which
time il could not be seen that either was
gaining the slightest advantage. as
neither showed any sign of disposition
to end the fight except by the death of
his adversary At last the black one
succumhed and rolled over dead on the
sand, while the victor Immediately pro-
cecded to reap the spoils of his long
battle. Selling his vanquished enemy
in his stout horns, or pincors, or what
ever contrivancc he has for that pur.
pose, he rapidly tore him limb from
limb, and coolly proceeded, in true can.
niballstic fashion, TO make meal of
left except little pile of legs and pieces
OF shell to mark the spot where one tar.
pntula had fallen and another had dined.

Brave Bows at Niagara,

Last week q party Of Germans stop

Germany, visited the maid of the
Mist landing for the purpose of taking
bath. AT this point, twill be remem-
bcred, the current is very rapid and to
ore not accustomed to the place it is
perious to venture in. Mr.. Wilmer
knowing nothing of. the waters depth,
or the swiftness of the current, got out
too far, and would have been carried
down the rapids but for the timely as
sistance rendered by two lads named
Henry and William Rodgers, sons of
Mr., Henry Rodgers, of the Canadian
Customs House at Clifton, who arrived
upon the scene rs the man was sinking
for the third time; the boys seeing the
man in danger at once jumped into the
water and after hard struggle succeed
ed in rcscuing him, William was the
first to reach the drowning man, who
graSpcd him by the neck with death
grip and drew him under. Henry had
by this time reached the scene, and,
diving, managed to release the drown
ihg in"a's hold Of his brother, after
which the boys e"e.aeiod in getting him
ashore, the whole party behis - 81,

The GLOBE takes pleasure in noting the
fact that the Minnesota Farmer, deservedly
recognized as the leading agricultural and
stock journal Of the State, established as a
monthly five years ago by II. K. Newton, is to
be issued hereafter as a weekly. Mr.. Newton
has had hard struggle to reach the point
when he could feel warranted in making the
very important Improvement now contemplate
ed,-his office having been destroyed by fire.
but his indomitable energy and close applica-
ton to business has finally brought its reward,
and The Farmer hereafter will much more
nearly approach his idea of what an agricul-
tural and stock journal should be than ever
before. In addition to the more frequent
issues of the paper it is understood additional
editorial taleut is to be employed and other
important improvements made. The first
issue of the weekly will be Friday, septem-

The seacrist party in the German Lutheran
society have purchased the building, paying
therefor the sum of 81, 800, the amount to be
paid IN three equal installments in two, four
