The New Moon as "a Weather
Prophet.

If the public would take hint from
the shepherds on the ChevOit hills in
Northumberland, they would probably
ret more reliable information about
the weather than in all Mr.. Vennor's
almanacs. 1t is fifty five years since
they gave me the following weather.
mark, and | have never known it to
fail 1t is simply this: "The first
time the new moon is visible in the
western horizon, if it is lying straight
over the reflection of the departed sun,
or if it is little north of it, we shall
have cold, ungenia! weather, more es-
peciallv if the old moon is also visible.
This is called by the shepherds the
old moon in the new moons arms, but
if the new moon is to the south of the
setting sun it will be mild, genial
weather"
The shepherds unlike our weather
prophets) make no pretentions to extra
wisdom, but necessity is laid upon
them to watch the weather, seeing
they have charge of thousands of sheep
feeding on the mountains day and
night, summer and winter.

ENGINEERS MAKING LOVE.

Nearly every engineer on tho New York
and New England railroad has sweetheart
or wife in New Brighton, Conn. Every
train would whistle a salute to some fair
dame, and the din grew so fearfully ear-split-
ting that the auth critics have had 1t stopped ]
It's noon when Thirty-fivs Is due,
An she comes on time like flash Of light,
An you hear her whistle, "Too-too-too~
Long fore the pilot swings in sight.
Bill Madden's drivin' her in to-day,
An he's calm his sweetheart far away
Gertrude Hurd lives down by the mill;
You might see her blushin'; she knows its
Bill.
"Tu-dis Toot-ee! Tudie Tuw
Six-fve a. m. there's local comes

An the way her whistle sings and huns
Is livin' caution TO man an beast.
Little Lou Woodbury., down by the Falls;
Summer or winter, always the same.
She hears her lover callin' her name
Louie! Louie! Louie"
But at one fifty one old Sixty-four-
Boston Express, runs East, clear through
browns her rattle and rumble and roar
With the softest whistle that ever blew.
An away on the furthest edge of the town
Sweet Sue Winthrop's eyes of brown

When she hears the whistle of Abel Gear,

But it rumbles along with fearful din
Till IL reaches the Y-swItch there. aud then

To her like a wedding bell 1t seems
"Nell, Nell, Nell Nell, Nell, Nell"
Tom Wilson rides on the right hand side,
Givin' her steam at every stride;
An he touches the whistle, low an clear,

So It goes on all day an all night,
Till the old folks have voted the thing

Old maids and bachelors say 1t amt right
For folks to do courtin' with such roar.

From a whistle valve to the girls they know,
An the stokers the name of their sweethearts

For the benefit of the numerous readers OF
your paper, j send you an account of the
manner OF bread making as practiced by my
cook for nearly ten years. The bread 30
made have eaten ever since 1876, and find
It the sweetest and most palatable bread l
have ever tasted. 1t is made as follows
Take tin pail or earthen pitcher holding
half gallon; put in one teaspoonfal Of sugar
heaped up, one. quarter teaspoonful Of fine
salt. one quarter teaspoonful Of bicarbonate
of soda, or sal soda will answer IL no other
is at hand; on these pour one pint Of boiling
water; when this has cooled 50 as not to
scald the -four, add -four enough to make =
rather stiff batter. This must be beaten up
we'll for at least .fuc minutes. Place the
pitcher or pail in larger pail containing
hot water, as hot as you can bear your hand
In, but not scalding, and put it somewhere
on the stove or other convenient place to
keep hot; in SIX or eight hours 1t will have
risen TO the top of the pail. Make sponge
with hot water, add the Yeast made above,
keep sponge hot, and In one hour IL will be
ready TO knead and mold into loaves, which
II kept hot will rise quickly, and can be
baked as ordinary bread. Keep everything

The California Legislature.

NEW YORK, April 19.-The Tribune says
Of California politics: One Of the objects Of
the extra session is the removal Of the pres
ent Board of Railroad Commissioners, who
have failed to establish maximum rates Of
fare and freight apparently because as soon
as they began to study the question carefully,
they found that the proposed method Of
regulation was impracticable and unjust,
both to the corporation and the public.
What makes the railroad question dominant
In California, however, Is not the general
sense of exaction or oppression, for there Is
no evidence that such feeling exists; the
railroad commissioners, when soliciting
complaints against the corporations, having
repeatedly failed to obtain any testimony
justifying the denunciations INDUCED In BY
politicians. The latter have forced the issue
into prominence themselves, and 1t has fer
years been utilized by adventurous and mer-
cenary schemers, whose monotonous sffront-
err is not little surprising. 1t does not yet
appear whether the extra session will answer
the expectations Of its projectors in any re-
spect, but 1t seems to have destroyed what
ever good opinion Of Stoneman remained In
the public mind, and the general suspicion
evidently Is that If ever the so-called "Cinch
bills" are enacted, the courts win promptly
declare them uuconstit ational. In the mean
time the railroad seems TO have gone out Of
politics, to the dismay Of venal politicians,
for there 10 Q total absence Of the railroad
lobby at Sacramento. While 1t clearly ought
10 be subject for congratulation, 1t Is regard
cd vita disgust and scarcely concealed IN
dignation. The bearings Of the present ain
gular situation upon the Presidential cam
paign remain 10 be seen.
