about grows grayer with the aging day, the
sun makes one last effort to live beyond its
hour, the evening breezes go whispering
through the foliage of the adjacent trees
and nature itself seems about to rest.
And then there comes TO the corner of the
street young woman. carrying in her arms
a little babe, scarce old enough to say It's one
first word. There they wait, this mother and
her child; wait till one certain car is sighted
on its way up the street. The mother must
then Involuntary press her little one closer
TO her, for baby brightens up as though it
knows papa is near. Presently the car is
there at stand-stili; the driver reaches over
the dashboard, takes the little one from the
woman's outstretched arms, kisses once or
twice the roguish mouth, and then hands
baby back again.
Sometimes the car S filled with passengers
1t has never been empty-and though
some OF the occupants may at first wonder
at the stop, the reason is soon found out and
kindly feeling excuses the momentary de-
lay. Away rattles the car; out the darken-
ing street into the distance beyond passes the
woman with the child but the pretty picture
hangs about the place for many a moment
after.
It's a trihing, simple thing; but hasten

have always been afforded great satisfac-
ton by the Petunia, not the double ones but
the ordinary strain grown in the summer
garden. Every season prepare a plant or
two for winter use. l start them in August
taking cuttings from such varieties that suit
me best BY the time cold weather comes,
have nice, thrifty plants, which generally be-
gin to blossom as soon as brought into the
house. Put in a sunny window they will
fairly run riot, and you will have flowers by
the dozen. When the poisoning branches
have grown to be long and slender,
cut them back within five or six
inches of the top OF the pot, and
new ones will start at once. Petunias are
not often troubled with aphis, or red spider,
and dry air does not to affect them much

ting the branches droop. Some prefer to
fasten them to a trells. In either way they
grow well. They will furnish crop of
flowers all winter and their bright colors
make any room cheerful. If you have no
other flowers at hand to select from, take
half a dozen into the house for winter use,
and:I warrant you much pleasure from them
if you do not let them freeze. They flourish
best in a rich soil to which considerable sand
has been added. The single kinds are much
to be preferred to the double ones for ordi-
nary rooms as they bloom more profusely
and their buds are not likely to blast.

The skillful Use of Farm Machinery.

One of the great secrets of making farm
work pleasant labor, and not drudgery is
in acquiring the art of using tools with I'M
Outstanding, so as to labor at an advantage
instead of by main strength at every turn
The era of machinery has not wholly super
seeded the use of the scythe, ak and pitch
fork, and the skillful use of the hoe should
not as yet be relegated to the attic of the lost
arts. 1t is the skillfulness with which tools
are used that gives one man a superiority for
turning off labor rather than by great
strength. 1t is matter of study how to use
shovel, pitchfork or any of the other sim
Demonstrated tools of the farm to the best
advantage, and with the least expenditure of
strength, and thus secure the maximum re-
suit That the fail has given way to the
steam thresher and the self-binder has made
the sickle and cradle forgotten tools. does
not release the farmer from the exercise of
skill and slight, but simply transfers it, and
skill in using machinery is now quite as
necessary as was sleight in using the scythe
and ptchfork. Steam is being fast har-
messed into doing the work of the farm, and
complex machinery is becoming every day
more noticeable. To the development of
skill, the higher intelligence and knowledge
of philosophy and laws of mechanics
are necessary The scarcity of farm labor
calls for more and better machinery and the
hiring of the unskilled labor of Europe fea-
lures that make itimperative that the farmer
must know more, and be yet more sizillful so
that he can employ both at the best advant-
age. The time has come when the farmer is
nota mere field hand or laborer, his energies
wholly muscular, and his labor worth exact
ly that of his hired help, and no more, but
now, mounted upon his labor-saving machin-
cry, he does the work of ten men and his
knowledge and intelligence along with his
skill, directs the muscular labor of his help,
and he thus becomes by his superior intelli-
gence and skill director of labor rather than
a mere laborer himself. 1t does not need
verifcation TO assert that success in farming
in the future is not to be attained so much
from muscular labor as from the skillful
handling and utilizing to the fullest extent
the improved tools and labor-saving machin-
cry of the day.

Fixing Up State Constitution.

Sioux FALLS, D. T., Sept 1.-THE people
of south Dakota will have to deal with pro-
hibition at the polls when the constitution
is sumbitted for ratification. In the conven-
ton, to-day, numerous petitions were read
to this end. Articles relating to the Legis-
lature and education were adopted. Most
of the committees made reports. These safe
guards are securing economy in every branch
of the constitution, while school lands are
protected closely. The State cannot
become involved in any large debts
of any character excepting in time of war
and Instruction. The pardoning power
will probably be taken from the Governor
and vested in board of pardons consisting
of three men elected by popular vote. There
seems to be a desire to throw into the CEN
trail ballot many features of government,
curtailing the powers of the Legislature.
Great care is being taken in adopting re-
ports A meeting of delegates and other
citizens of south Dakota is called for some
days prior to adjournment to adopt a protest
to the President against the appointment OF.
Governor Ordway.

The Chinese minister gave dinner party

Washington, having been born here a few
weeks since. Covers were laid for twelve,

occasion. The dinner was served in the
American style and the table was handsome
~ decorated, the center foral-piece being
quite massive, of roses, tuberoses and other
fragrant flowers. 1t is Chinese custom to
give fete in honor OF a dignitary's child
upon its reaching the age of four weeks. Miss
Mi Ju was four weeks old on Wednesday,
and the dinner was to celebrate the occasion.
Mi, the name given her, means America Tor

was given in honor of her being born in the

government. She was the first Chinese child
ever born in Washington. and the members
of the legation describe her as a beautiful
little creature, and very smart.

They say that our policy in the Yellow
stone Park has been to gain free advertising
through the medium of invited guests do
they? said Uncle Rufus Hatch to-day, when
asked concerning the late reports from the
Yellowstone National Park, and the charges
against the Northern Pacific railroad.
These reports are all falsehoods, and the
people who wrote them knew so at the time
they were written. With regard to the rail
road scheme, it is mere Imagination. We
could not run a road into the park withouta
special act of Congress, and if we were al
lowed to do so we should then control the
park forever. 1t is not likely that Congress
will pass such an act, and if any such prop
osltIon is ever made in the conference of the
Improvement company | shall vote against
1t and strenuously oppose it. That's the
other side OF the picture, isn't it?'' said Uncle
Rufus, with bland paternal smile.

about the floating debt of the Northern Pa
cific of $17 600 900, the $40, 900 900 worth yet

THE CASUALTY LIST.
A Collision at Hunters Point Caused by
Conference.-The Lives Lost.


Carelessness-Two Lives Lost.
New York, Sept. 11.-A serious accident
occurred this evening on the Long Island
railway, near Hunters Point depot, by
which two men were killed and eight in
jured. The Flushing train leaving Hunters
Point, when at Montauk junction, about
one-eighth of a mile from the depot was run
into by Manhattan Beach train due at
Hunters Point at 6:35 The latter train
was several minutes late, and the engineer
should have stopped east of the junction
until the Flushing train passed. The two
locomotives came together near the switch.
The Flushing train consisted of four passen-
ger coaches and combination car, each of
which was full of passengers but none of
these were injured. The engine and tender
were, however, badly broken up. The en-
gineer OF the Flushing train, Ernst Kitchner,
remained at his post backing down his
train and received slight injuries. The Man
haitian train consisted of seven ordinary
cars. AT the time of the collision this train
was running at the rate of thirty-six miles
an hour, The engine was not greatly dam
aged, but the parlor coach was telescoped.
Many persons were standing on the plat
forms. The occupants of the parlor car, be-
ing warned by the ''sissing" OF the
escaping air from the air-brakes
escaped from the car by the doors
and windows. The car apparently broke
in two about the middle and the platform
car behind crushed through about the same
distance. All the chairs in the back part of
the car were smashed and piled on top of
each other. Wedged in between the plat
form of the second car and the floor of the
parlor car were, on one side, Thomas Biz
mingham of 108 East Houston street, and on
the other Robert Smith, of 1856 East Eighth
street 1t was found necessary to cut
away the paneling and woodwork with
axes to get the men out. Their
legs were so crushed that amputation
was necessary. The men died Immediately
after the operation. and the bodies were
then removed to the dead tho use to await an
inquest. The injured, so far as learned, are:
Thomas Glenn, engineer of the Manhattan
ders; Mr.. Morris, of 1902 Locust street,
Philadelphia. stopping at the Albemarle
Hotel, New York, one leg cut off; George
Wright, residence unknown, serious cuts on
the face and lips; Mr.. Lawrence, New
York, cut on the head; w. Connor
500 Third avenue, New York, cut
on the head and body; Mr.. Vernon
Barton, West Thirty-fourth street, New
York, large splinter in the leg; Bant. of
the Manhattan Haymarket, cut on the head
Among the passengers escaping injury were
State Senator Justin, Harry Mann, late of
Haverly's theater, Barney Aaron, and large
number of sporting men returning from the
races at Coney island. Smith, who was
killed, was ticket-seller for Kelly & Bliss, at
Sheepshead bay. The injured persons were
all taken out of the wrecked cars through
windows by the other passengers.

A BLOODY AFFRAY.
Drunken Cowboys Fighting to tIse Death
in Dark Room.

DENVER, Sept. 11,-Details of a bloody af-
fray, which occurred at Milan
ranch, Ebert county, on Sunday
night, in which eight cowboys
were engaged, have just reached the city.
Sunday was day off with the cowboys, and
all went to Agate Station, on the Kansas
Pacific road, and falling in with companions,
opened the festivities with several drinks,
and thence rode to neighboring ranch, got
a fresh supply of liquor and started
home. On the way two of their number,
named Roster and McKeever, engaged
i'll an angry dispute about trivial matter,
and all repaired to herders quarters to
settle the difficulty As soon as they got in
side the men clinched. Both fell to the
ground, fighting desperately their compan-
ions urging them on. The tables and
benches were removed, and in
a ring the men bit and tore each other
like tigers, and in their excitement
madly howled and danced about. While
the fight was at its highest an oil lamp was
knocked from its place, and instantly the
room was In darkness The men ran upon
each other, and in minute after the light
had been extinguished the melee was gen
eral. The door being locked, and there being
no means of ,egress, each man
struggled for his lie. Amid
resounding blows and curses, a pistol shot
rang out, and the death cry of a victim
paralyzed whatever of reason was left in the
party. Almost before the cry left the lips of
the unfortunate man, there was wild fusil-
lade, and when a light was procured a
bloody scene was presented. Rossiter was
dead. two Jopeses lay weltering in their blood,
and three others we're wounded some fa-
tally. Rollins and McKeever are the only
ones not injured. They have not yet been

Colored Woman Poisons a Family Because
One wouldn't Marry Her.
CAIRO, ILL.,, Sept 11,-Last night a colored
woman, Kate Cotton, who having a spite
against ALI. Miller because he wouldn't
marry her, went TO the house of Louis Nc
Murray, Miller's mother-in-law, asked for a
cup of coffee, and finding none made volun-
tered to make potfull to get one herself.
She was granted permission. After making
it she left the house and said she would re-
turn soon for cup. Not returning the fam
lily finished cooking supper and sat down to
eat. In short time they were all taken
sick, and one named Jerry Thompson died.
His wife is very low aud ALI. Miller and
Louis McMurray are dangerously i'll. DR..
Sullivan was called and pronounced that
they all had been poisoned Kate Cotton
was arrested, and afterward took poison
while in Jail and will probably die.

MRS. CARLYLE.
A Woman's Opinion of the Wife of the Great
Statesman.

Statesman.
Lady Wilde, in London Queen.
Mrs. Carlyle failed to reach happiness be-
cause she had ambition without fame, and
intellect without career, and was too self
conspicuous and proud to be content with a
subordinate part in life. She ought to have
considered that her existence was really of
no Importance to the universe; but her hus-
bands works had power to send the world on
Its path of progress with mighty tangential
force, and to drive current of new life into
the heart of the century. He was necessary
to humanity; but she was only necessary to
smooth the path his soul travelled. In this
line of duty lay the beautiful mission of a
loving wife, and in this she ought to have
found happiness; but she only thought of
the small annoyances that lay in her own
path, and pronounced herself miserable
though holding the proud position of wife to
the greatest man of the age! Yet she loved
him as well as her nature would permit; but
egotism can never nobly worship nor see the
glory through the mist. All the trials that
made her miserable resulted more from
faults in her own disposition than from her
husbands temper. Had she married the
village schoolmaster, she might have been
happier KEEN clever, homely Scotch
woman, with her sharp tongue and her
broad Scotch accent, would have ruled the
parish admirably. This should have been
her destiny; but Carlyle raised her to emf
nence as his wife, gave her station and digni-
ty in the great capital of the world; and in
return she darkened his fame gave his name
to the scoffers, and chilled the enthusiasm
that would have raised memorials to his
honor
