COMMERCIAL.

The general mercantile markets are without
changes. Groceries are in fair request and values
are steady. The dry goods trade is only moderate.
Drugs are steady and in fair demand. Other mar
kets the same.
GRAIN.
Wheat-Local markets are steady as 70 prices
with easy feeling. A fair inquiry for cash delIv
cries, with light offerings all round. New York
and Baltimore are from 1s@1<c lower while Chi
csgO is 20 higher.
Corn-Local markets are slightly frmer for some
grades, while offerings limited. Forward de-
nveIies are in no request as the present prospects
for large corn yield are incompatible with high
prices.
Oats-A strong local demand held prices firm
and offerings scarce; most OF arrivals find demand
weak at Seaboard.

Farm Notes.

Halt teaspoonful of carbolic acid in a gill
of milk is recommended by DR.. j. A Dodge,
in the Journal of Agriculture, as an excel
lent remedy for hog cholera.
Many man mas had his pork fail to keep
properly because it was sailed in a frozen
condition. Frozen meat, whether beef pork
or mutton, will not properly assimilate the
salt, and cannot be depended on to keep in
hot weather
Iowa Homestead: Farmers should exer-
else the greatest care, during the present por
zion of the year, in feeding corn to hogs.
There is no doubt but that overlooking with
corn in cold weather produces indigestion,
and result disease. Give your hogs
plenty OF loosening food such as bran or oil
meal sleps."
A cheap notbed, with cloth sashes, is rec
commended by an Ohio farmer, which is made
OF single square of one-quarter inch stuff,
with a single bar down the middle, and COW
cred with common heavy unbeached muslin
painted over with two coatins OF boiled lin
seed oil. He claims that the plants grown
under such covering are better colored,
harder and better able to withstand trans
planting than when grown under glass.
After the hotbed is filled with manure lay in
the soil so as TO come within three inches of
the muslin, sloping exactly as it does. As
the season advances the bed will settle as
fast as the growth OF the plants requires it.
A successful grower of ounces says he at
tributes all his success in the business to the
accident that most OF his trees were set in
low, mucky ground, and with such shelter
that their own fallen leaves and those OF an
adjoining apple orchard made good annual
mulch. He says it is not the trunk and
branch es of the ounce that are tender, but
the root, trees being almost invariably killed
in exposed situations wherever frost pene-
trated deeply. He mulches well with autumn
leaves and well-rotten stable manure, saying
the better the manure (within reasonable
limits the fairer and larger the fruit He
also believes vigorous growth prevents to
some extent the twig blight and red rust.

Household Hints.

The narrow Nottingham lace that is made
for the windows in halls makes serviceable
coverings for chair backs. Cut it the length
OF the buck, and hem the edges, or finish
with narrow torchon lace. This may be
used also a covering for the seat of a nice
easy-chair, and will protect 1t from dust and
wear more than one would think possible.
The Scientific American, very reliable
paper, gives the following receipt as a sure
cure for corns: Take one-fourth cup of
strong vinegar; crumble into it some bread.
Let it stand half an hour, or until it softens
into good poultice. Then apply, on retir-
ing at night In the morning the soreness
will be gone and the corn can be picked out
II the corn is a very obstinate one it may
require two or more applications to effect a
cure.
An old-fashioned washstand that has no
drawers or closet can be improved by lacking
q breadth OF cretonne to the edge of the
stand. Ii should reach to the floor, and be-
hind this curtain may be concealed a basket
containing clothes that need mending, or
rubbers and overshoes. Room may be econ
omized in this way. Another way thought
ont by an ingenious woman is this: One
door in her bedroom could be closed without
inconvenience, and so in the space left by
the deep casing she set her washstand. She
hung some pretty curtains of cretonne from
the top of the doorway, put plating over
the cord which held them, and fastened
come bands to the wall by which the cur
tains could be easily and quickly looped
back.

mors that Mrs. Cougar and Captain Wallace
were too familiar; he had heard that Mrs.
Cougar called at Wallace's law office fire.

Mrs. Cougar were together over night; had
met Mrs. Cougar frequently at large general
parties of the best people.
William Taylor. who was called, did not
know what Mrs. Cougars general reputation
was.
Will A. Smashey, ticket agent of the Lake
Erie d. Western, was called to explain a
| ticket of admission used at the brewers ball,
tonight. 1t was rumored that the ball was
given for handlers benefit The admission
tickets were stamped on the back by an old
Lake Erie stamp, and it was rumored that
for this reason e. H. Address was combining
with the brewers to crush Mrs Cougar
Smashey swore that he loaned the stamp
without the knowledge of any one con-
nected with the road besides himself.
Frank Wilstach who accompanied the jury
to the Cougar house yesterday was examined
concerning the same.
Mayor Mckinley was put upon the stand
this evening and questioned concerning
the allegation that on the morning after
the evening that Wallace and Mrs. Cougar
are said to have been seen for some time in
WalIace's office-Nov. IL, last, from which this
suit grows-and asked if a friend OF Wallace
did not go to him, the Mayor, early in the
morning and intercede in Wallaces behalf
to keep out of the Mayors Court any charge
that might be brought against him by Chief
of Police Mandler.
The admissibiiity of the evidence was I'M

To-day at noon, just after court adjourned,
Captain Wallace denounced a para
graph in a morning paper of this
city as an Internal lie Mounting a
chair, Captain Wallace stated, just as the
jury was going out of the room, that he
wanted them to hear that he denounced the
paragraph as a lie. AS he is an attorney in
the case. some hitch in the proceedings to-
day, growing out of this, is looked for The
paragraph objected to was to the effect that
when Mrs. Cougar leaned forward to speak to
Wallace her husband pulled her back, and
she then wept bitterly.
