TRADE MARK the liniment called Elliss
SPAWN Cure upon two OF our horses, and in each
instance have completely removed two curbs from
each horse; and we believe the SPAWN Cure to be
a most valuable preparation.
Also, we bear testimony to the remarkable prop
critics Of your Condition Powders, with which we
have accomplished what we have not been aSle to
do with any other remedies. We do not intend to
be without them in our stables, and gratefully
recommend them to all owners of horses

FRUIT UNFIT TO EAT.
IMPORTING SCALE BUGS.

Now we have been importing from every
part of the globe the most choice and valu
able additions to our horticultural resources.
New fruits meet US on every hand. There
is hardly meeting like this in which we
have not exhibited something new and
promising. But we have also imported
with these new luxuries pests, which are
going to cost the State, inevitably, millions
of dollars. For example, take the red
scale which was imported on few citrus
trees, and what has it done for the citrus
growing interests of this State? l have
not all the facts before me, but do know
that, in about eight or ten months, one
little Sc Element in one of our counties
bought, paid for and used over l05, 900
pounds OF whale.oil soap in fighting in
sects, mainly the red scale. | know also
that the cottony cushion scale was i'm.
ported in the same way, on few trees,
into the citrus growing section, and 1t likes
not only the citrus tree, but almost every
thing else, even the Monterey cypress, and
not only will it infest the top, but 1t
will 60 at least eighteen inches, if not
deeper on the roots. 1t is the woolly
sphis, phylloxers, and almost all other
pestiferous insects combined, and | think it
likes everything else that ordinary insects
do. Are we going on, then, in this way, I'M
porting new pests, or are we going to have
public sentiment which will demand
quarantine of every new thing OF this
sort which comes into the country from
abroad, so as to protect our horticultural
interests

NATURE lrANUFAcrURIyG HAIL.

Upon the front OF the ail.cloud this
condensed vapor exists in the form of
water, whose temperature is near 80 de-
gres. In the interior of the hail-coud the
vapor is precipitated in the form of snow,
whose temperature is sometimes as low SIS
20 degrees. Observation on the SUBMITS
of mountains have shown that, on the
front of the hail cloud there exists vio-
lent whirling motion about a horizontal
axis. This whirlipg motion causes the
snow to collect in small balls, each of
which forms the nucleus of a hailstone.
The SNOWFALL is forced into the warm cur.
rent, where it receives layer of water,
which is CONCEALED by the cold OF the
nucleus, thus rendering the snowy center
more compact, and adding shield of trans
parent ice. By means of the whirling mo-
ton the hailstone, covered with stratum
of uncongesled water, is hurled into the
snow.cloud, where it receives a layer of
snow and again becomes thoroughly chilled.
There it escapes again into the water
cloud, and is covered with layer OF water,
which is concealed by the cold of the
Nucleus Thus, by the whirling motion, it
is plunged alternately into the snow.cloud
and the water.cloud, while each alter
stion furnishes q layer Of spongy

HOW DIV Is PRODUCED.

When, IN consequence OF radiation, objects
near the earth's surface, such as grass and
leaves Of vegetables, become cooled below
the dew point in their vicinity, they con
dense upon themselves portion of the va
por which is present in the air, and this is
called dew. The amount Of dew thus de.
posted is greatsft upon those substances
whose temperature is the lowest. being pro.
portional to the amount of depression of
their temperature below that OF the dew
point Dew, therefore, does not fall from
the sky like drops Of rain, but the vapor Of
the air is condensed by coming in contact
with the cold surface of the object upon
which the dew collects. In some parts of
Egypt and Arabia nearly all the moisture
the earth receives is that obtained from
dew. The circumstances most favorable for
the production of dew is cloudless nights
and full exposure to the sky, an almost tran
quill and moist atmosphere. The deposit
ton Of dew is immedistsly checked BY
clouds, which reflect back to the earth the
heat radiated from it. The same effect Is
produced by an artificial covering, even
though of the thinnest texture, from which
cause plants placed beneath trees or near
buildings collect less dew than those fully

Party realty.

Anything like an earnest advocacy of
party steadiness acts purely as red
rag to bull, to some people and many
papers. These are they, however, in
every instance who do the two horse
act, who carry water on both should
ers, sort of good-God-good-devil men,
lawyers who take fees on both sides,
the camp-followers who eat but who
are of no sort of utility in the
campaign. These are the papers
who never want to see politics
in municipal or county matters
and who support Wash Jones
one race against the regular
democratic candidate and who
at another help the Ochiltree
against Finlay, Notwithstanding the
latter is the regular man. They also
contribute to swell the enormous ma
jority by which Gen. Robertson WASH
elected over John Ireland, the regular
and they are those who find the two
thirds rule dreadfully cramplng ant
narrowing restraint. Party steadines
is the sum of all political villainy t,
them. Sam Randall is as good a
Carlisle. and protection is to then
a more distinctively democratic doc
trine than free trade or a tarit
for revenue only. The very wild
est political excesses are freely
INDUCED in, but still these chaps com
up to the communion table smiling
and with all the apparent innocenc
of the very lambs of the flock them
selves. Let the brethren watch then
They are the traders and traffickers 9
politics. They buy and sell frien
AID foe alike. They are ruthless, an
SO wonderfully corrupt that the
would barter the dearest interests Nc
of the party alone, but of society, II
the merest mess of pottage. The
are only nominally democratic, an
only because thedemocracy is strong

Deadly ARRAY.

Yesterday afternoon about o'clock
Albert GloWasky and Joe Trugett,
who live on the banks of the Colorado
east of this city, some three or four
miles. had murderous encounter, re-
sulting in GlowaskY shooting Trugett
in the back with shotgun. He is
badly hurt, but will probably recover.
Information was filed before Justice
Tegener, who issued a warrant for the
would be-murderer, and placed it in
the hands of Deputy Sheriff Charlie
Mcclure, who went to the defendants
residence to serve it. He found Glow
asky sitting on the bank OF the river
with a Winchester in his hand. The
officer told him he had warrant for
him, whereupon he drew his rifle and
told the officer that he would shoot
him if he attempted to arrest him.
The officer kept walking toward him
until he got so close that the fellow
could not use his gun and the officer
clinched him. A desperate fight en-
sued between the officer and the pris-
oner but by a free use of the
butt end of his pistol the
desperate man was at last subdued.
When Charley Mcclure reached the
city with his prisoner late last night,
| he was a sorry sight indeed. He was
covered with blood from his head to
his feet, and his clothes showed the
effects of the terrible struggle he had
passed through. The man was placed

THE Gazette is modifying. Last
week it declared that the two-thirds
rule should go. Now it reasons on the
situation, and only declares that it
Ought to go. There's nothing like
an opportunity to get your fin er on
the public pulse, as the Gazette did at
Waco the other day. When it gets
home from the prize drill it will re-
construct again, and spend the re-
mainder of its life jamming the van
dial who first proposed to abrogate the
two-thirds rule. These are the DAYS
of bewildering, rapid and broadly
sweeping changes. There's no telling
what day may bring forth.
