A Female NiniIists Revenge.

ODESSA, Aug. 30.-The details of the
attempted shooting few days ago Of
Colonel Katanski, chief Of the gend-
armies Of this city, which have hitherto
been suppressed, have now become
public. The motive leading the young
woman, Maria Kalinsnaia, to at
tempt the desperate deed was the desire
for revenge. Col. Katanski had sem
fenced her brother, who WAS member Of
8 revolutionary society, to penal servi-
Katsnski's private room and 20 minutes
later drew revolver from her
pocket and fired point blank at the officer.
The bullet grazed hit ear and, before che
could fire again, Colonel Katanski seized
the weapon and immediately placed the
young woman under arrest.

Tie skies were propitious to our
African visitors on Sunday and they en-
joyed themselves, We presume, iully 40
much as Of sny preceding Big Quarterly.
Considering how many Of them there were,
they also behaved themselves very
creditably indeed. few imbibed too
freely and grew quarrelsome and noisy,
but the number thus misbehaving was
no!ioeAbly small. II is also noticeable
that the personnel Of thess gatherings is
growing less unoouth from year to year !;
the typical darksy Of tie corn field being
now in decided minority and the rslig-
ious exercises being conducted with less
robustness than was the case only few
years ago. The uegrces do@n the PENN
Rula are plainly growing 80 be leas
the children Of nature and more the
product Of civilization, This ia one Of the
results OF the system which has converted
the Peninsula into a peach orchard and
TT uek garden for the cities Of the east,
Another factor in the change Is
thai tbs old unoles and sunties are
disappearing and their places are being
taken BY those WHO are isslipg more and
more with each advancing yesr the direct
and indirect beusft5 Of lie liberal
educational policy which nov obtaina in

Wilmington. Thursdsy,Sspt Abba,

The editor Of the Amsreaa Grocer bss
been yisitii the Delaware peach district
and has satls6sd himself shat the crop
generally ia large one and that 1t ia
being marketed more auooessiully than
any previous crop. Heiuds that wyOm-
ing takes the lead "a point Of shipment
and that the days when Now York and
Baltimore cpuld moncpolizs the market
are over now they must compete
actively Tor their supply. In Queen
Anne and Caroline counties be finds the
crop comparatively short, bat by no means
poor nor as bad as the growers assert.
The fact is, he continues, there is
plenty Of peaches; but the competition
growing out Of the greatly extended
market has caused prices to remain high
and steAdy; and Baltimore packers either
do not or will not understand the situa-
tion and will get left pretty soon il they
do not wsken up. On this point he gives
the following expression Of leading
Delaware packer whom he does not name;
The crop in Delaware ID large and good,
and believe so in Maryland, taxing no stock
In contrary reports. Baltimore packers could
get all they wanted. II they can not get
enough peaches by boat they will send to
Delaware for them. We are just on the
point OF receiving the late Varieties and these
are relied upon to give Gamers their supply Of
standards, and we nave no doubt that Balti-
more will go where the peaches are and OBJ
tain all that may be needed.
This prospect for late peaches, he notes
as very good, although few Of the yel.
low varieties will be short. The reasons
which have given Baltimore light receipt,
are shat the fruit will bring better prioei
elsewhere, and that, as rail shipments
require less handling Of peaches thar
when transported by boat, thu quantity
shipped by water has decreased. Thu
increased number OF eVspOIating eatab
lishments in the peach region is also al
important factor in keeping up tn
market. Thus far Baltimore packer
have put up chiefly seconds and pi
peaches, claiming that the present price
forbid the canning Of first class stock o.
q basis Of current figures Tor standar
quality.
The American Grocer believes this clair
to be correct in the main, and the bsG
remedy is to elevate the market &c
canned goods by raising the aversG
quality Of the product. 1t says;
First class standards in good syrup ca
readily be sold at 81. The retailers can hai
die these at an average profit OF S318a5J pt
cent and do better with them than with q
ordinary standard at Sl.5U. Fine quail
pleases consumers and induces larger CO.
sumption al 20 cents per can than WHIT
medium or indifferent quality retails at
cents. If Baltimore gets left on peach ere
of four to i've million baskets, the packe
must blame themselves. We venture the a
sertlon that tins country can absorb half
mllon cases Of line peaches IN good syrup
S2 per dozen. The country il sick and tlr
OF peach slops and seconds, Give consume
better quality and they will pay a price tn
will show Gamers good profit.

illustrated.
This is the second book Of the authors
Lake and Forest series, and details the fur
ther adventures of the same party Of Boston
boys introduced in Eastward Ho.n In this

northern New Hampshire and western Maine,
and there spend the summer camping out
and living mainly on the game which they
bring down with their rifles. Occasionally
they fall in with moose deer, bear or wild
cat, and have spice Of adventure smacking
Of danger, and in one chapter several of the
party are entombed in cave where they
have time to grow both hungry
and thirsty before relief comes. Among
other adventures, they catch, tame and train
bear and deer. The detail with which
their journeyings, the scenery and the kind
and quality Of game brought down are de-
scribed gives founded on fact air to the
book, leading one to opine that it must have
been made up from diary of the authors

''The Bloody Bootblack of Baltimore" and
one very much better fitted for them. We

DEAL WITH THE sTALwARTs.
A Buffalo dispatch to the Bo.ion
Herald says: The pins are being SEQ M
in every district possible in the state TO
secure the nomination Of stalwait Assem-
blymen and congressman, and with little
opposition from the Blaine leaders, al
though Half breed voters are indignant
Within the past.week or 10 days, in spite
of their show OF confidence, Senator
Warner Miller and other Blaine leaders
have been disturbed at the indications
that Stslwarts in many sections Of the
state intended to quietly out Blaine, in
order to avenge Foger's defeat. There
has been little open talk on the sub
ject, but the remark attributed to Mr.,
Conkling: "If Cleveland is good man
for Mr.. Blaine's friends to make cover.
nor, think he may be a good man for
Republicans to make President" has
passed around among the influential
stalwarts, and has had its effect.
It ia reported here that the Blaine
leaders have proposed to James D..
Warren, the Stalwart chairman of the
Republican state committee, that Stalwart
Assemblymen shall be generally ncmi-
mated throughout the state, and that they
shall vote for Depew for United States
senator. The proposition ia only q ten
tative bid for stalwart support for Blaine,
and the Stslwarts believe that by hold
ing of they can force their own terms.
Meanwhile, the Blaine leaders do not
dare to make vigorous fight over assem-
bly, nominations, for fear of intensifying
the StalwArt fear that Blaine, If elected
will make clean sweep Of the Stslwarts
in the Federal Offices. Just at present
the election Of Blaine is one Of the smallest
irons which Mr.. Warren has in the poll
tioal fire.
