loaded down. What parent can, without suffer-

stocking on Christmas morning, and finding there
in only birch rod " And yet kind parents have
done this and suffered in doing it, believing it
necessary in training their loved ones out of the
paths of error and into the true paths, and the
genius who presides over the tomato children may
do even so. The lesson to be taught is plain, but
will not learn until we find the "birch' in our
stocking. The monitor has proclaimed long ago,
You are producing too many tomatoes, but we

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IN A COAL
MINE.

An explosion occurred in a coal mine in Taze-
well county, Va, on Thursday of last week.
About $50 men were in and about the mine at
the time, some of whom were killed outright
and at least 1875 were suffocated by the gas
which followed the explosion.
In the town of Pocahontas, which is abolt
TIN ee-quaI tiers of a mile from the scene the ex-
ploson awoke the Inhabitants, who describe il as
resembling an earthquake, accompanied by a
thunder clap. The force of the explosion, as
shown by The blackcned surface of the mountain
opposite and the debris scattered along the
slopes aud in the bed of the little stream that
flows at the base of the mine, was terrific. The
fan house, engine shed and locomotive house
were literally blown away, and the heavy tim
bers supporting the entries TO the mine were
carried in some instances distance of several
hundred feet. The cars standing near the mouth
of the mine were hurled clear across the bed Of
the stream and up the side of the mountain OPP
posite, the fragments of cloihing were scattered
in every direction. A human foot was found
high up The mountain side.

EXPERIMENT STA
TION.

Mr.. EDITOR In the proceedings of the Deer
Creek Farmers Club, as published in your issue
passed, CONCERNING the Maryland Agricultural
College, and asking that the fund derived IRON
the donation made by the United States to in
College and used for the maintenance of an Ex-
pertinent Station. Now, as the LEGISLATURE has
decided not to establish an Experiment Station
at Plkesville, would it not be wiser policy, in
stead of attempting to destroy the college, to al
low the fund obtai ned from the general govern
ment to remain where it is, and to ask the Legis-
ture to restore the donation of 5000 to the col
lege, to be used for the foundation of an Expert
ment Station, TO be established as an adjunct TO
the college, as is now the case with the Expert
ment Station of the State of Connecticut, which
is attached to the college at Middlctown.
AS understand, in fact as know the trustees
of the Maryland Agricultural College are asking
for the restoration of the donation for this very
express purpose. Now as 1t is admitted by all that
an Experiment Station would be of vast benefit to
the agricultural community, we would suppose
that the Farmers clubs of this State would be the
last to unite in crusade against the only insti-
tuition in the State established for the promotion
of its agriculture, and object TO an Experiment
Station being attached to it,
Admitting that all which is said rejecting on
the past management of the affairs of the college
Is correct-athough much that has been asserted cd
destruciion2 Would 1t not be far better to unite
with the present management in its efforts to
make the college what its founders intended it
should be, and which, they feel assured. will be
the case, with The present able and energetic
President and faculty of the college, IL they meet
1t may not be amiss to say that the private
stockholders of the college, those who gave their
money for its erection, did so with view solely
for the benefit it would be to the agriculture of
the State, and not with the slightest expectation
of ever receiving any other return for their in
