KATIE LEIPERT.
The Remains Of the Unfortunate
Girl Taken Home, by the
Aged Father for Burial.

All that was mortal OF Katie Leipert,
the unfortunate girl who committed
suicide, az narrsted In these columns
yesterday, was conveyed to the depot
Of the Chicago, Burlington g. Quincy
railroad yesterday by Mr.. Cornell, the
undertaken, last evening, for ahipment
to Corning, Iowa. They were accom-.
panied by the aged father, Mr.. Joseph
Leipert, q highly respected farmer Of
Adams county, who came In answer to
the telegram notifying him Of her
death.
From Mr.. Leepert we learned that
the cause Of hef departure from home,
and no doubt her death, Is traceable
directly TO the door Of q certain young
man whose name he refused to d.
yulge, and whom she loved with Q
passion, bordering on idolatry. The
peridy and inconstancyloi this tobacco
chewing animal no doubt lent q shadow
of disappointment and melancholy to
her young soul that only self destrdo-
ton could destroy. She sought, out
In the busy, active world, solace for
her SORROWS and balm for her
wounds, but the great world of
no time to waste In the charity Of
kind words, the sunshine Of encour.
agement and the affection o. Chris
tian smiles. Tired of her burdens,
weary of life's fitting Genes she took
her life, and while the bloodless lips
are glued In death, the destroyer Of
her happiness Is no doubt using his
seductive influences upon the plastic
affections of some other girl. What
Gan be the moral status Of such q
beast. Where q he, who murders
both body and soul look for hope.
Thus has ended the life of q too
confding and beautiful girl, and we
kindly cover with the mantle Of charity
the pitiful scene.

and according to the manner Of all ply

his stupefactiOn, that his colleague was

And seeing the establishment of his

"Let us say Il thousand, and that is

Barthez became thoughtful for mo-

Olive Oil in the HOLY Land.

The following is an extract from an
interesting article contributed to the
Zeitschrif Of the German Palestine Ex-
plOratiOn Society by the Rev. +. A. Klein:
The finest plantations Of olives are in
the Nablus district, but nearly every
village has its larger or smaller grove.
There is no doubt that the olive tree is
one Of the most valuable products of the
country. and that it could be made 4
still greater source Of revenue than it is
at present. 1t requires but little alten-
ton, and lives aud yields fruit even
when neglected. 1t only requires graft.
ing and little digging up and clearing
out, and this done, it yields n plentiful
crop In return for the small amount of
pains bestowed upon it. The teiiaheen
say that the vine is sta delicate
town lady who requires a great deal of
care and attention. The fig. on the con
trary, is teiidhG-a strong country
woman who can flourish without such
tender care; but the olive tree is q bold
beda,Dje, who, in spite of neglect and
hardship, remains a strong and useful
Arab wife. The olives ripen toward the
end Of Summer; the trees are then beat
en- with long sticks, care being taken
not To destroy the young leaves and
shoots. The fruit is collected and spread
out on the roofs or somewhere, and then
put into heaps for little while in order
that it might slightly ferment; after
which it il taken to the oil press, where
it Is crushed under n heavy milestone,
and, packed in little straw baskets, is
finally pressed. The oil (zayD runs into
little cemcnted cistern, from which it
is drawn in leather bottles or large earth
enware jars for carrying away. The
teilaha uses it both for light and nour-
ishment. II he has nothing better, he
Is content to eat some bread soaked in
oil. 1t is also used great deal in town
cookery, but rs means of light it has
been almost superseded by petroleum.
Much inferior olive oil is used for max
ing soap, and in some years II great deal
Of oil is exported to France and Italy.
The jitt, or refuse of the olives, is used
for fuel, having great properties of heat.

Only Mules Gould Act Like This.

Some time ago Maj L. b. Brown
bought a very smart-looking young
mule, and proceeded forthwith to
"break" it. The animal was according
ly hitched to a wagon, when it began to
cut all sorts of capers, and some not
down in the programme. After kick
ing, squealing and plunging around
awhile, his muleship broke the breast
chain, and in attempting to do q double
somersault landed on his back in the
wagon body heels up and unable to rise.
Another very tame mule had been hitch
ed with him; this one was securely an
chored to the ground by burly negro,
who didn't seem to fancy the turn things
had taken. Especially was he ''buck-
eyed when the tame mule became ter
ribly alarmed of q sudden. and proceed
ell in his best style to do the occasion
only rs mule can perform. The negro
was thrown from the mules back when
the now thoroughly frightened animal
ran away with the wagon loaded with
tho mule, which up to the time had been
unable to regain his feet. 1t was quite
q funny escapade flying wagon
drawn by one mule. another mule in the
wagon body, his legs punctuating the
air with the force OF pile-driver. The
mule that got the ride came near hav-
ing his neck broken in the frOlic.-zdl-

How Hydraulic Miners Are Acquainted Of
an Officers Approach.

A Smartsville, Cal, correspondent of
The Marysciilc appeal says: lit has
been a mystery for some time past by
what modus operandi the employees Of
the Blue Point Hydraulic Mining Com
pany could so accurately tell the APP
prOach OF any one, or OF any suspicious
object. from one 10 three hours before It
made its appearance at their works.
On visit to this celebrated mine the
writer was shown the simple instru-
ment (if il can be called by that name).
TO give the information how it is done,
or to scientifically explain how the de-
sired results are brought about. is more
than I will undertake. But this do
know, that by several appliances an en-
ploye can see objects with il for nearly
ten miles in any direction from where
the instrument is located. The day.
though must be clear and the atmos-
phere pure, and whether it would act
or give the desired information in other
than this pure atmosphere is more than
l can say. We have known for many
years that correct time or the hour or
meridian can be correctly discovered by
placing upon the ground vessel or
shallow bucket containing tar, and
with mariners quadrant one who I'M
,ierstands It can tell within hundreth
part Of second the hour of noon.
This instrument does not act in all
parts Of the country. 1t seems that it
must be- placed at q certain elevation
above the level Of the sea before it will
affect accurately the object wished to be
seen Ii has been tried ut 1000 feet
above the sea level and it affects the OBJ
ject very indistinctly: also at any point
less than 600 feet above the sea level it
will not work accurately. But between
800 and !, 200 feet in elevation objects
can be distinctly seen rs natural rs life.
IL works here from early twilight till
nearly dark, and between that time no
objects larger than rabbit will escape
observation for ten miles in any direc-
ton. The sky by its operation acts as
huge mirror. and by looking through
the queer instrument which is construc-
ted like telescope and mariners quad
rant combined through the an
giles Of the different lenses in the instru-
ment, and in the direction you wish to
view, can see objects Of their natural
size from where you stand eight or ten
miles away. as true as it thcy stood by
your side. Whether there are any chemi.
cal combinations in the stuff that to me
resembles tar. or not, could not find out.
as that part contains the secrets Of the
discovery, but it has the smell and APP
pearance Of common tar. The vesse;
that contains it is about thirty-fOur inch
es in diameter and about six inches
in depth. The instrument is taken il
your hand and with quadrant you find
the angle you wish toprospect or search,
bringing the lens Of the instrument to
bear on the vessel containing the pre-
paration Of tar. You then have one Of
the most exciting moments of your life.
The discovery was made by aFrenchman
here, who has spent many years to per-
feet it and who has always been consid-
cred q crank.

A Saed Tester.

A correspondent in the Farm and
Fircside gives the following directions
for testing the quality of seed.
My plan, he says. is to make a box
about six inches deep. Fill in four in
ches of good soil; on this lay thin piece
of muslin, just enough to tit the box,
and make it nicely level on the soil
On this muslin put one hundred seeds
Of the kind you wish to test. Cover
them with another piece Of muslin, and
an inch of earth. When done, water
with slightly warm water and set away
in warm place. The sprOuting pro-
cess can he much facilitated by placing
the box on the stove, daily, after the
fire is nearly out, so that the stove Is
just warm enough to heat the bottom OF
the box. Otherwise the box can be set
on bricks that are heated daily for the
purpose After four or five days lift of
the top dirt and its covering Of cloth
carefully. Count the seeds that have
sprouted. and if only fifty Vt each sort
have sprouted. procure new seed. II
over sevcnty-five are sprouted. and the
sprouts all look vigorous. the seed will
do very well. Of course, the greater
the per cent. Of those that sprout, the
better.
