From Phiiopoiis, 9Th District.-Farmsrs
are busy seeding and the fine weather has been
very favorable for the work. the ground being In
excellent order. More Fult1 wheat than usual Ia,
been sown. The different drills In use attract at.
tention and their merits and dement's are dis
cussed. The lighter and most simple working
drll Ia the generally sought after. Nearly ali
the corn has been cut %, and ether farm work Il
we'll advanced.
The last meeting Of the Junior Gunpowdsr
Agricultural Club was held at Mr. Mahlon Prices.
His farm IL situated on the York pike, 10 miles
from Baltimore. The land is Of excellent quality
and Is being steadily improved. the dwelling aud
outbuildings being neat and well-kept. The
membership Of the club being limited 20 IT, action
was taken TO increase the number 10 lG, there be-
ing Others DESTROYS Of joining. Blanks for the
yearly crop reports were ordered TO be printed.
The inspection committee reported favoraby on
the farm and canning establishment Of Mr.. y.
Parsons. This farm was formerly q portion Of
Mr.. Prices aud Is being used TO grow fruits aud
vegetables. The subject for discussion was the
advisabity and prOhtablensss In exhibiting At
the county fair. The sentiment was favorable 10
making exhibits and next year We may look for 4
collection Of farm products, 4c., from this Club.
The Juniors tarred long at the we'll spread table
Of good things provided by the ladies. The Club
adjourned TO meet at Mr.. wm. Brooks. In October.
when the question for discussion will be the best
plan to exterinaio piantain aud to continue grass

Mr.. Edward Austen bought at the late fair four
Jersey cattle, thus adding to the value Of his
stoek-yard. His yield Of oats this season was coo
instead Of 100 bushels, as before reported. The
average yield was 40 bushels TO the acre, the
weight being Sc lbs. to the bnshel.
Owing 10 the death Of Mr.. ID. Gorsuch, late

taken to elect his successor. In order 10 have rep

Our people turned out masse 10 visit the
county fair. and all seemed pleased with the ex-
hibitiOn. The stock attracted special attention,
and the 2l.pound butter COW was gaxed at with
wonder. many believing that y COW could not pro-
duee that much In one week. II 10 said that bet
ter order preserved this year than 81 previous
fairs, and for this the managers deserve common
dation, but the exhibition At Timonium IL not yet
what Il ought 10 be. Ifnanaged impartially aud
greater interest aroused Il would stand high in the
estimntion Of everybody.
The weather having been 90 favorable the late
tomato crop has matured we'll. The prices now
obtained are very profitable. Mr. T.. Parsons last

| TRENTON, April There il much
| excitement here on account of a muir
der yesterday forenoon. The corpse OF
. potter named James Murphy, about
70 years old, was found in q pile OF
terra-cotJa pipe in the yard of o. o
Bowman..& G - works, about q quar-.
ter of mile from the State Prison, and
it had been there for several days.
The man had been strangl d-choked
to death-and the imprints OF the muir.
derer's fingers were distinctly visible
on the neck. around the windpipe Ca
the lett side were also the marks of
where the murderer graspe1 him round
the body The tongue protruded from
the mouth and the eyes were injected
with blood protruded from the sockets.
Dr. C. e. Durham, the county physician,
ordered an inquest to be held on Mon
day. Murphy was seen in company
with two rutfians named Dennis DonO.
van and James Sullivan on Thursday
evening, near the place where the body
was found, and about $50 o'clock Mr..
Gill, the bridge keeper of the canal
bridge at the Riverview Gems tery,
heard cries of murder in the direction
OF the terra-cotta works also gurgling

van was arrested on susp. cion of muir.

Labor Strikers,

At meeting of the spiDners of thu
Sycamore Mill in Fall river, Massachu
sets, held yesterday afternoon, 1t was
unanimously decided not to go to work
this morning, there being little filling
on hand. This will throw the weavers
out of work and uecessitate the closing
of the mill unless new spinners can be
secured. The spinners allege in explana-
ton of their course that "the mules
have been too heavily weighted while
the managers assert that the spinners
ABUSED the privilege of using wrenches
themselves" and that privilege had to
be restricted to second hand" -hence
the dissatisfaction.
Two hundred and fifty skilled work
men employed in the Diebold Safe and
Lock Company's factory, at Canton,
Ohio, struck on Saturday noon against
a reduction Of wages. On Saturday
night they appointed a committee to
meet their employers and try to effect a

Yesterday workmen commenced the
work Of tearing down the old frame
building, 90S West Seventh street
kept for number of years by James T.
Haddock and from which he has dealt
out to hundreds of families the white
tactical fluid as it came fresh from
the milkman's dairy. Before Whining.
ton commenced its rapid extension
westward, the old farmhouse stood
alone in its spectre loneliness as if mon
arch of all it surveyed.
Tradition says the old frame has stood
the storms of more than hundred years
and still it is in tolerably fair state OF
preservation. The mind of the oldest
inhaLitant ruLs ba tx to the time when 1T
was occupied by a man named John
Jones, no relation so far as we know of
any of the large number Of Jones now
residents of the city.
The old building then and until some
twenty years ago, stood on what was
called Love Lane. A spring of fresh
water gushed out from the stones in
the cellar, and liquor saloon was
kept in the main room. The midnight
orgies of these olden times sounded in
strange contrast to the name of the
lane on which the building stood.
Could the old worm eaten beams of the
old building speak out they would
some strange tales unfold.
