APEARFUL DEATH.

The New York Herald has a spe-
cial from Scranton, Pa, saying Wil-
liam Cook, a miner, who was smit-
ten with small> pox several days ago,
died horrible death in his home at
the Hampton mines, q short distance
from Scranton, about ! o'clock -
His wife and a baby several weeks
old we're the only persons in the
house with the sick man during the
last days Of his illness, and this
morning, when she thought he was
dying, Mrs. Cook placed a lighted
candle in her husbands hand, and
sat in chair a short distance from
bis bedside to await the solemn is
sue. Overcome by fatigue aud loss
of rest,
SHE FELL ASLEEP,
and the candle 10 the hand of the
dying man burned through the r gid
fingers and set the bed clothing on
FIRE. Mrs Cook was startled from
her sleep but swooned again, and
fell helpless on the floor. The smok e
in the room was sffuocating her
The light from the burning bed at
tracted the attention of the neigh
bors. The place was on the fret
floor, and the scene was plainly wit
messed through the Window, but fear
Of the horrible maisdy hindered
everybody from going 20 the rescue,
until at last two men, who formerly
had the disease, broke through the
door and carried out the senseless
wife and babe. They then recover
ed the body of the unfortunate man,
from the bones Of which the flesh
had been burned, and placed it 10 a
box, after which the fire was extin
guished. Mrs. Cook and her baby
are recovering, and she is so far i'm
proved as to be able to narrste the
sad circumstance of the affair.

Just forty miles south of this ciN is the

these bustling sixty thousand, ever gave
thought TO the last resting place Of the Rev
olutionary hero. Pomtret was the scene Of
the VOLTS den adventure. buthow to get there
and how to find his old home and grave were
queries which none of my friends were able
to answer. Thinking that postmasters were
omniscient. wrote TO him who dispenses
United States mail in the small village of
Arlington, Conn. asking him how, where
and when. Having obtained a satisfactory
reply. on bright Monday morning left the
heart of the commonwealth with my friend,

Two men lounged against the entrance to
the station. Abingdon, 10 whom we made
known our desire To go into the cave whence,
in the days of yore, Putnam yanked the ma.

Go right up the bank, turn to the right.

BY measurement we found the hole TO be
two feet square, and gazing into il as far a.

nothing more. But l had brought with me =

end of the cave. and Putnam next wound his
way in over the path made by his stubborn
relative more than a century since. We
found the cave twenty-six feet long, sloping
gradually downward as we advanced. Taking

Purchasers are apt. in selecting fruit
trees. to take those which are tall and
handsome in preference to anv others.
But the truth is that short stocky trees are
better for an orchard, more likely to live
and come quicker into bearing than tall
slender trees. whether apple, pear, plum
or cherry. The reason is simply this;
tall trees in the nursery rows, for some
reason, get the start. overtop and
overshadow those that started later.
and the consequence is that the sap of
the tree pushes its growth upward and
into foliage. while the roots are long. slen-
der and few, consequently it does
not bear transplanting as well or do as
well after being transplanted as was ex-
pected from its fine appearance in the
row. Stocky trees. on the contrary being
overshadowed, make stouter growth
with branches and foliage nearer the
ground. with numerous stout and branch
ing roots and it is these numerous stout
roots which do not waste their substance in
bleeding or by absorption from the soil.
that cause the tree to start off in rapid
growth and outstrip its slender rival. and
also come quicker into profitable bearing

Ozone. the marvellous preservstive ad-

says the black powder which. on being
burned in closed room, is to pervade it
with this new preservative agent. is dry
and tasteless and has distinct smell of
cinnamon; II burns with pale blue flame
and the emission Of the familiar odor of
the first ignition of a sulphur match. On
analysis 1t was found to consist of sulphur
9S.7 parts, carbon 4.6. and other matter of
no importance making up the small residue
of Ia per cent. Sulphur is yellow. but
this powder is black; and the microscope
shows that this transmission is effected by
covering or glazing as it were the parti-
cles of sulphur with very finely divided
carbon. probably lampblack; then. the
color of the sulphur being securely mask
ed, its odor is concealed also by little oil
of cinnamon, and the mixture is sold at
thirty times the cost of the sulphur-its
most expensive ingredient. Farmers who
have fruit and vegetables to preserve will
hardly feel able to afford such price for
a mere work of art.

BlOOdhOunds In the Russian Army.

The Russians have strengthened their army
by the novel addition to each company. of y
pack of powerful and carefully trained dogs.
These watchful animals are sent out with the
sentinels on picket duty, where their sharp
ears and still keener scent will prove an i'm
pregnable barrier to the lurking spies of the
enemy. The dogs used are 4 species of
bloodhound from the Ural Mountains. The
dog is selected because of its habitual silence.
1t growls, but never barks-a matter of the
first importance to soldiers near an enemy's
camp. The Ural hound 10 gifted with an ex-
ceedingly fine sense of smell, keen ears, and
is ever alert. Most comforting of all to the
lonely picket, the dog is said to be especially
courageous in defending his master. 1t is
curious, that. with the example of the King
Charles spaniels before us. no one thought
before of using these intelligent animals ~
sentinels. The value of the plan is self-ev-
dent The Muscovites have gone further,
and are training swift dogs, as well as these
same Ural dogs, to act AS dispatch bearers
much as the carrier pigeons were employed
in 1871. They certainly would be hard mes
sengers to catch, when sent stealing through
the woods at night.
