He Disposes Of His Spells Be.
fore he is Searched.

Peter Rush, who Friday as
saulted and robbed Jennie Dickinson
did not long enjoy his Ill gotten gains.
He was followed to Council Bluffs by
Officers jacobson and Church, who
with the assistance of the Bluffs police
soon found and arrested their man.
The Omaha officers asked that he be
searched at once, but this was re.
fused, and they started with him to
tho county jail.
In the meantime Rush seized the
opportunity to pass owe to his attor-
ney all the paper money he
had on his person, and on the way
to jail threw away the silver money on
the street, scattering 1t far and wide.
The t~ti,ers picked up q portion of It,
Church finding some dollar pieces and
Jacobson some quarters.
The consequence was that when the
prisoner was searched no had no
money ut all on his person. He was
committed, as he declined to cross the
river without a requisition, and his
hearing was set for p. m. Saturday.
N. j. Burnham went over to condu ct
the prosecution.

Saturday Evening, March IL.
The wholesale trade of the city for the
past week was reported fairly active, the
volume of business transacted being In
excess of the corresponding period of last
year, and merchants generally concede,
from present indications, the state of
trade to be more favorable than for some
time past. The demand for dry goods,
millinery, clothing and boots and shoes is
improving and orders are coming In for
the spring styles, (which are said to be
very attractive) to the satisfaction of all,
the warm weather Of the past week having
had q desirable influence on trade in
these lines. Values as q rule are steady,
with indications of an advance in staple
dry goods. The millinery jobbers feel

Shocking Disaster.
-..lI nl..s.sL A. fF... La.

SASDUsKY, Ohio, March II In
Venice, this county, yesterday after
noon, Herman Krohn, q farmer, put a
kettle of coal tar on the stove In his
residence aud went out, leaving his
wife and one child In the house. The
tar soon boiled over, and Mrs. Krohn,
In attempting to lift the kettle off the
stove dropped 1t. The tar caught, and
the flames, communicating to her
clothing and that Of her child, burning
both of them In q most frightful .
ner. The child died last night Mrs.
Krohn's injuries are Of such . oharao-
ter that death u inevitable. A horri-
BILE feature Of the affair - that the

ever, was that of Mike GilligaD,
whom everybody knows. After Mikes
discharge by Jury In the district court
on the indictment for assault with
intent to kill, he loon e~.appeared
before Judge Beneke for violating the
Slocumb law. The judge sentenced
him to thirty days on bread and
water, but suspended sentence on con-
dition that the prisoner should leave
town and not return during the year
1888. Mike very cheerfully shook
the dust of Omaha from his feet and
repaired to Council Bluffs, but the
eIiles' heart was lonely and sad. He
longed to once more see his native
shores and so Saturday he
came back and last night
held his old and favorite position
In the city jail. Mike has been up 80
often that he has become quite q good
pettitogger and last night on his being
locke up In a cell with seventeen
others, no organized q police court

court officer and proceeded to arraign
and try all the rest In his " style

was still going through the docket
when the reporter left.
TIMBER THIEVES.
Deputy Sheriff Crowell went up
above Florence on Saturday and ar.
rested four men on the charge of
cutting and stealing timber from the
land owned by w. F. Parker. The
warrants were Issued by Judge Wright
and the men were lodged In the
county Jail. 1t seems that these men
have been engaged In cutting the
timber fort long time, and SO long
as they were not hoggish Parker let
them 60 on. Lately, however, they
they began cutting wood and cording
1t up In quantities, and the owner
concluded that there was q point at
which forbearance ceased to be o
virtue, and went for them through the
law. 1t is said that still others will
be arrested.

Potato cultivation.

FufWGIs dVWt JVuTHu4'
Results Of the seasons experiments with
potatoes at the New York Experiment Sta
lion, when summed up, indicate the fol-
lowing conclusions: POTATOES invariably
produce their tubers above their feeding
roots. Ordinary cultivation does not break
or injure the roots OF the potatoes while the
plant Is growing. The roots require a cool,
moist feeding ground, but the tubers do
well in a light, dry suriace-soil. A single
eye, under favorable conditions, Is capable
Of producing all the potatoes that can be
expected TO be grown in q hill. Whole
potatoes planted, rarely develop all their
eyes into growth, often no more vines
being made than from Z a single eye
planted. Using whole seed for
The purpose Of increasing the stalks or
tubers is, therefore, wasteful. 1.-THE whole
potato, with one good sprout developed has
that sprout injured or destroyed, several Of
the other eyes may push out sprouts sim.
ultaneously, and with o large yield Of small
tubers as the result. Potatoes repeatedly
billed up SO that an undue proportion Of
vine is covered with earth are liable to be
checked in their tuber formation. The vine
that made four feet OF upward growth
through soil added during the period OF its
growth, neither branches nor threw out
root stalks, and had but three potatoes,
and these were just above the seed, the
largest weighing two and three-eishths
ounces, the others no larger than peas.

This little Italian Valley gave another

time. On the 29h Of August, 1706, the
French, besieging Turin, effected an en-

Pietro Micca was only o poor private In the
artillery, but he was q hero as great as
Ieouidas and rs brave rs Horatius Coolies.
When he saw the Piedmontese Guard
overcome and the French marching tri-
umphanly up the great gallery, he re-
membered the door At the head OF the
steps and the mine which had been pre-
pared behind that door and under the gal

heart on fire for his country, be gave one

up the stairs and closed the door, fired the
