STOMACH DIGESTION IN
THE HORSE.

Elienberger and Hofmeister report
the results of numerous experiment
tai researches in regard to the
stomach digestion in the horse.
Some of their conclusions are OF
practical interest to all who have
horses under their care. They
found that there is always food in
q horses stomach when he begins
o meal. When food is kept from
him digestion is very slow, and the
stomach is not very empty for
twenty,four hours at least. The
stomach contents after feeding oats
form relatively dry, crumbling
mass containing sixty to seventy
per cent. of water. After meal
of hay it contains seventy, five to
eighty per cent. of water. The
relation Of this mass is always acid.
The turning of starch into sugar IS
most active in the first one or two
hours of digestion. It gradually
diminishes and ceases after FIVE or
six hours. The digestion of vege-
table albumen takes place actively
in the stomach. After moderate
meal it reaches its highest rate IN
three or four hours; after a
full meal in six to eight hours; thef i
lore one neesssEsa ~ should not fol
lG%r+a aa0Gher in less than six t
eight hours.

KEEP TEE SOIL OCCUPIED.

The success OF the market-gar-
dener depends, in a great measure,
upon keeping the soil constantly
occupied. No portion is allowed
to be idle, but as soon as one crop
is of, another occupies its place.
The owner of a family garden will
find If to his advantage to follow
the example of those who raise
yegetables for market. The meth
DDS which are profitable for those
who raise vegetables for sale, may
be followed by those who dispose
of their products on the family
table. In the Monthly Notes about
Work, we point out various crops
that may be sown, and we would
now enforce the point, that every
foot of the soil in the home garden
should be occupied and productive.
The soil will produce something;
if not asuseful crop, 3 crop OF
weeds, and it is as much labor to
keep weeds in subiection as it is to
cultivate a growing crop. The old
fashioned way of making garden"
in spring and sowing everything at
once, and for ALL is wasteful.
Peas, early potatoes, early cabbage,
and others have been removed by
this time, and their places should
at once be filed by something.
Such vegetables as remain IN per.
fection but few days, of which
sweet corn is marked example,
may be enjoyed for a long time by
sowing every week, and the sowing
may be done this month with a
fair chance Of good returns. Beets,
beans, cucumbers, kohl-rabi, spin
ach, radishes, and turnips (espec.
ially the White French) are among
the vegetables which may profta-
bly, follow the early crops that have
been removed. If there are late
cabbage plants in reserve, set them
in every cleared place; they will
yield a good supply of useful food
for the COW if not needed for any
other use.-Americon AgrScuEta1s

TAKE CARE OF THE CHERRY TREES.
Every cherry grower, says the
Germantown Telegraph, must be
fully aware of the great ne-
cessity to observe the utmost
care in protecting cherry trees from
injury of any kind, especially
bruises 1t is, therefore, not for
them, but for those who do not
know, that we give these hints.
A blow OF the hoe. the scratching
or barking by the single, tree in.
plowing or narrowing, or even q
kick by the heel Of the boot will al.
most invariably cause damage that
the tree will never outgrow. A
kind of gangrene sets in, which
oil the efforts of the tree, however
Young and vigorous it may be, will
never recover from. We had a
Downton tree as thick as a mans
ann, which having afew ripe cher.
ries that We wished to jar off and
taste, it being the first fruiting,
we STRUCK the trunk with the heel
of the boot, which broke through
the bark. 1t seemed to be so tri
fling as not to be worth thought :;
but the following year the bark
was dead two inches in diameter.
The following year it was three
inches, and four or five years after
one half of the wood was exposed
and dead, and in year or two
more the tree itself died. clearly
from the one slight blow of boot.

WHEN.
A FRIGHrFUL COLLISION.
a Young Engineer Runs a Dinkey Engine
Into "A Passenger Train.

UNIoNTowN, Pa, Oct. 13-As the IL A. NJ
train on the Southwest road, to-day, was ap-
preaching Lemont Station, four miles north
of Uniontown, it was run into by an engine
at the furnace siding, with terrible effect
The regular engineer was not on duty, and
the little furnace dinkey was being manned
by a young man who seems to have known
nothing about his business, and was running
at rapid rate toward the crossing, when he
saw that collision would be inevitable uu-
less he checked up. Instead of staying at
his post and stopping the engine, as the pas
sengers say he could have DONE he reversed
the brakes and leaped off, letting the engine
go crashing into the middle of the passenger
train. There were eighteen persons in the
car and the scene was frightful.
Men, women and children were knocked
out of their seats in every direction, and few
escaped being mangled. bruised or scalded.
The car took fire instantly, and was wrapped
in flames almost before the passengers could
be got out. 1t was entirely consumed. Most
of the passengers were bespattefed with
blood and SCOT but miraculous as it may
seem, no one was killed. The worst injuries
were sustained by Mrs. Cashier Knox and
two little children, of Connellsville. She is
badly bruised, cut and scalded and the ex
tent of her injuries is not yet known. One
OF her children had its leg broken and both
were scalded about the face. J. X. Ritenour
and wife were bruised and burned, but their
children escaped serious injury. James
L eeper, of Pittsburg, had his shoulder hurt;
Mr.. and Mrs Chew, of West Brownsville,
were bruised and cut, and ]. L. Woods, of
Uniontown, was cut on the head and hand.
bout dozen others received slight inj uries,
The marvel is that nearly all the passengers
in the middle car were not killed. The
cause of the accident is not satisfactorily ex-
plained.

Doubtful Whether 1t Will Receive Hearty
Support
MADRID, Oct. 13-It is stated in well-in-
formed circles that the following cabinet
has been formed: Pasada Herrera, Presi-
dent of the Council; Ruiz Gomez, Foreign
Affairs; Gollastra, Finance; Moret, INTERIOR
Llnares Rivas, Justice General Lopez DOM
inquiz War; Beranger, Marine Suarez Me-
lau, Colonies. The cabinet has been formed
as above, except as to the ministry of marine.
The new cabinet took its office this after
noon.
1t is considered doubtful whether ma
jority of the members of the Cortes will un-
conditionally support the new cabinet, es-
pecially in its policy on the question of uni
versal suffrage and constitutional reform.
Moret's organ asserts that the aspirations
of the Left will receive satisfaction in the
programme of the new ministry, whose
mission it claims, is based chiefly upon the
fact that it is the formation of the Liberal
party.
The organ of Martos urges the cabinet to
conclude treaties of commerce with Eng
land, Portugal and the South American re-
publics.
The appointment of Valcarcel as Minister
of Marine was confirmed despite the efforts
of Sagasta. Many Liberals, especially of that
section known as Centralists, who have no
representation in the cabinet, will oppose
the new Ministry.
The organ of Senior Sagasta states that the
Prime Minister asserts that the followers of
Senior Sagasta will support the new ministry.
The paper says Signor Sagasta resigned in
order not to interfere with the party of rec
onciliation. The new cabinet has been sworn

JOHN BRIGHT.
Promised Visit from a Man Whom Every
American Esteems.

Cable Special.
1t is announced that John Bright will visit
America next spring and it is probable that
he will deliver addresses in the great cities of
the Union. Englishmen are jubilant over
the fact that their great statesman has at
last consented to visit their cousins across
the water, while Americans here predict
for him a grand ovation. John Bright's
visit to America is regarded by them
as an international event, and they say
that his journey through the country
will be a triumphal tour. While Lord Cole
ridge was welcomed by one class of Ameri-
can citizens, Mr.. Bright, it is said, will be the
guest of the whole nation. Lord Coleridge's
Statement at the Academy of Music in New
York that, while he was a follower OF Mr..
Gladstone, he was in sympathy as a Radical
with John Bright, has produced great i'm
preston here among the Liberals. John
Bright was to have accompanied Lord Cole
ridge on his recent visit, but at the last mo-
ment the trip was abandoned for family rea-
sons. He is now making preparations for
the coming visit.

Publishing Them.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 13.-The investigation into
the larceny of the notes of the grand jury
stenographic reporter, stolen from the circuit
attorneys Office Thursday night, was contin-
ued to-day, and it was shown that the notes
were in possession of Florence White, one of
the reporters of the Post-Dispatch. but how
he procured them was not ascertained. 1t
was in evidence however, that he had taken
them to Alton, ILL.,. presumably to have
them translated, and a capias was issued for
his appearance aud the court ordered that
he be held in contempt.
At the conclusion OF the Investigation.
M. F. Mcdonald, assistant circuit attorney,
made a statement to the court regard
ing publication in the Post-Dis-
ny Of Chief of Police Campbell and the
police commissioner, given before the late
grand jury. He stated that he aud Mr.. Har-
ris the circuit attorney, differed regarding
what disposition might be made of the grand
jury proceedings The witnesses and the
grand jurors, he said, were sworn to secresy,
but the circuit attorney, after the adjourn
nlent OF the grand jury, might make what
ever use of the testimony taken before that
body he deemed proper. He had the right
TO use it for the public good. Popular sup
port was sometimes necessary, and the back
ing of the whole community should be be-
hind the court and circuit attorney
He believed it to be his duty advise the pub
lie OF great conspiracy, like the ring how
existing here, and he therefore permitted
the Post-Dispatch to print the testimony re-
ferred to. Mr.. Harris, he sale, knew nothing
of his action, and that the court and circuit
attorney might not be hampered in pursuing
the case under investigation, he had rendered
his resignation to Mr.. Harris, and it had
been accepted,
