and unproductive, although the lard is
naturally rich in fertilizing materials.
In the absence of proper drainage such
lands yield little or nothing, but ex.
perience has proved that q
system Of tiles makes them
more productive than any other on the
farm. 1t has been noted that farms
yielding originally twenty-five. to thirty
bushels Of corn to the acre have fur
nlsbed as sixty to seventy bushels per
acre after being tiled, and that the yield
OF wheat and oats was more than dou-
bied. This experience is causing farm
ers to invest their surplus money in
tiles instead of putting it in banks or
buying more land, and the investment
has proved to be the oost profitable a
farmer can make. The system is equal
ly serviceable TO wet lands and dry
lands; and, in addition to the increased
fertility it gives the soil, it has been
found to furnish springs at the outlet Of
the tiles for watering the stock in local

three or four miles in dry weather for
water for cattle. The points of informa-
tion for the farmer developed at the re-
cent convention were as follows: The
larger size in tiles should be adopted at
the outset, on the principle that boy
should not he sent TO do mans work.
They should be laid at a good depth,
and should empty into an open ditch.
They should be inspected regularly and
repaired as often as necessary--a prac-
tice which will insure their lasting much
longer than otherwise. 1t has also been
discovered that the laying of tiles along
both sides OF a road is one of the cheap
est and most effective means of keeping
the same in good condition. Now that
the usefulness of tile drainage has been
demonstrated to the entire satisfaction of
the farmers, the manufacture of tiles
will be extended, and competition will
keep down the price; fortunately there is
no monopoly in the business. All that
the farmers will need to guard against is
an inferior article, which will he found to
be the dearest in the end.

The trial of Gusnther schnells, for the
alleged wilful murder Of DR.. Guenther
schuchardt, was begun in the Circuit Court
yesterday morning. Judge Boyd presiding.
Prosecuting Attorney Jordan represented
the State and Col. W. w. Arnett and W.. ].
w. Cowden appeared for the accused.
During the morning session the crowd in
attendance was very slim, but in the after
noon, when IL was learned the trial was
begun, the court room was uncomfortably
full Of spectators and good, large sprink-
ling of lawyers. When schnelle was brought
into court by Jailor Davis, he showed
plainly the effects of confinement, in his
bleached skin, while the lower part OF his
face was covered with beard. After the
| first furtiye glance about the room, his
features assumed the look Of stolid passive
ness which is characteristic of him. His
\ brothers, Robert and William, were present
| but seemed more like disinterested out
i siders, than as spectators, no recognition
taking place. .a.
A great difficulty was encountered In
| getting a Jury. The case has been so gen.
orally talked of that nearly everybody

| to conviction were few and far between.
| The first panel called was composed OF the
following: 8. II. II. Frederick, Peter Guud.

Reilly, John Weissman, Peter Mauer, Otto
| Barth, Edward Norton, John ArbsnZ, Rob-
| ert Nesbitt, J. Fischer, Henry Ahrens, Au-
! gust Belize, Henry Hoeffer, Henry Schultze
| and W. J. Bodley. OF these, all but Pat.
| rick Reilly and Henry SchuItze were found
| ineligible, and the Sheriff was ordered to
draw q new panel of eighteen.
At2 o'clock this panel was presented aud
sword. The first Juror called was ]. 5.
Shrodes, who was passed by both sides, as
were also F. ID. Snyder and Frank Falloure.
James w. Mitchell said be had formed an
opinion at the time of the killing, based
upon the evidence published in the papers,
but this opinion could be changed by the
evidence. Col. Arnett objected to the ju
ror, but Judge Boyd decided him to be a
competent Juror and he took his seat.
James w. White, +. II. Hoffman, |. K Wa
terman, Joseph Emsheimer and VIM. Il.
Sheib were passed without exception.
L. Ballard was objected to, but he was
seated with the other jurors. Henry
Juergens, J. NJ. Brown, J. Z. Walters, Fred
Beymer, 7. A. Hall, John Bigelow, A. I
Garden and Joseph Hasenauer were all
passed without objection. These gentle
men, with the two who had been secured
in the morning, made up the panel OF
twenty, and from these eight were struck

ECCLKsIAsrICAL CONFERENCE.

est and PrOft.
An ecclesiastical conference was held
yesterday at the residence of Bishop Kahn,
at O'Clock. The Vicar General of the do
cese, Monsignor Sullivan, presided, and
Rev. Father McElligott acted as secretary
or notary. The following present: Rev.
Kreusch, Of st. Alphonsus; Rev. Huber, of
Wellsburg; Rev. McMenamin, OF Benwool;
Rev. Schleicber, OF the Immaculate Con.
ception; Rev. S.lvain, OF Mt. de Chantal;
Rev. DAILY, Of Moundsville; Rev. Haimann,
of st. Joseph's Settlement; Rev. Deehan, of
the Cathedral, and Rev. schilPp, of St.
Alphousus.
This was the second of these conferences,
as the plan is quite recent and proved OF
both interest and profit. The object Of
them is to keep alive the information the
priests have received in their seminaries,
by essays and dissertations and by discus
sions of q dogmatical and moral nature.
The matter is furnished by the Bishop and
is discussed after the manner Of q debating
society. Yesterdays discussion vas quite
interesting and equally profitable. In ad-
dition, Rev, Schleicher read q we'll pre-
pared essay on "Indulgences," which was
discussed by the fathers present.
The conferences having now bean fairly
inaugurated, will increase in interest and
benefit as they progress.

A certain paper of yesterday worked up
lengthy and equally empty article, spec
ulating, in an unkind and uncalled for
way, on the probability of a resignation
having been handed in by Rev. P. Kreusch,
Of st. Alphonsus Church. When ques'
toned ON the subject yesterday, church.
man said to REGISTER reporter:
81 cannot see why that paper went to all
that length to say nothing. After many
words, it failed to tell whether or not the
resignation had been rendered. 1t might
have saved itself trouble and its readers
much useless bosh by simply going to
Father Kreusch himself. However, the
paper has so often msrepresented him that
suppose its reporters were afraid to face
him.
Taking the hint, the REGISTER man went
to the church OF st. Alphonsus and upon
stating his mission was kindly and politely
received by Father Kreusch, who was per-
fectly willing to impart all information de-
sered. In regard to the publication of yes
teIday, he said that paper had frequently
