A sad accident occurred on the morning of the
Fourth. II appears that party of Chinese went
up to Kapena Pool TO battle. Among them were
Too Shing SAM the pastor of Chinese Church
here, and Lee Chong, promising youth; son Of
one of the partners in Alec d Co. Shortly after
entering the water Too Shing Sam was observed
to be struggling wildly and young Lee Chong went
to his assistance. The pastor wildly grasped him
as only drowning man can and both sank be-
meath the surface to rise no more. Their COM
panions raised an alarm which was heard by the
Portuguese servants of Mr.. ]. S. Walker they
called in the assistance of Mrs. S. @. Wilder who
telephoned to the Station and Immediately couple
could be done but to recover the bodies. This was
done by the assistance of prisoner named Friday
an excellent diver both bodies were recovered
The event has cast gloom over the Christian
Chinese in this community.

Simple Testsf for the Purity Of Wa
ter.

In suspected potable water for per-
0 n who cannot command chemical an
alysis, the following tests are recon-
mended as being generally available
and reliable
Color-Fnl a bottle made Of color
less glass with the water; look through
the water at some black object; the wa
ter should appear perfectly coIcrless
and free from suspended matter. A
muddy or turbid appearance indicates
the presence Of soluble organic matter,
or Of soluble matter in suspension. 1t
should be clear as crystal"
Odor-Empty out some of the water,
leaving the bottle half full; cork up the
bottle and place it for a few hours in a
warm place; shake up the water, remove
the cork aud critically smell the air con
tanned ia the bottle. If it has any smell
and especially if the odcf is in the least
repulsive, the water should be rejected
for domestic use. BY heating the water
to boiling, an odor is evolved sometimes
that otherwise does not appear,
Taste-Water fresh from the we'll is
usually tasteless, even though it may
contain q large amount of putrescible
organic matter. Water for domestic
use should be perfectly tasteless., and
remain soeysnIafter it has been warmed,
since warming often develops a taste in
water which is tasteless when cold. If
the water. at any time, has a repulsivr
O even disagreeable taste, il should be
rejected.
Heisch's Test for Sewage Contamin-
ation-The delicacy of the sense of
smell or taste varies greatly III different
individualsS1on person may fail to de-
tect the foul contamination of q given
water, which would be very evident to-
a person of finer organization. But ii
the cause Of bad smell or taste exists in
water, the injurious effect on health will
remain the same, whether recognized Or
not. Moreover, some water of very
dangerous quality will fail to give any
indication by smell or taste. For these
reasons / attach special Importance to
Heich'stest for sewage contamination or
the presence Of putrescible organic mat
ter. The test is so simple that any one
can useit. Fill a clean pint bottle three
fourths full of the water to be tested.

Vitality or .

The farmer or gardner should run no
risksin seeds in preparing for a crop.
Reliable seed stores never sell at ram
dom, nor will they sell seeds after they
have lost their vitality by age. Such
stores frequently have large surplus Of
seeds left over, some Of which are just as
good at two, three, or " ten years
of age as when fresh. But til re are a ma
iority of seeds though they may make a
limited and feeble growth, have not the
strength and vigor to produce strong
shoots or crops, So we say, don't buy
old seeds. And a large portion of those
placed at stores and groceries to be
over from last year, or
from some seed raiser
who sells withoNt testing his seeds after
the winter ispassed. Prof. Beal, of the
Michigan Agricultural College, tried the
seeds sold at country stores on commits
sion, obtaining lots from various places.
He found that from twenty two to forty
five per cent. of theseeds grew with the
best of planting and careful attention sc
that thereafter the college bought no
more garden seeds which are sold on
commission. Lately we have heard
men claiming that they had seed corn
three years old just as good as it was
two years ago.. 1t is true seed corn two
years old viii grow if it had extra care,
but not as certainly non near as vigorous
rs the first spring after it is gathered.
And we wouId disp0uraue the pIantinO
of two years old seed, if any good seed
could be had for three or four dollars
per bushel.--Des MONIES Register.

Either Of the following methods seem
to promise a good supply Of melons for
home consumption
A correspondent OF the Rural New
Yorker describes the following method
by which an extraordinary crop Of water-
melons was raised Holes were dug ten
feet sPPasrt each way, eighteen inches
square and fifteen inches deep. These
holes We're filled with well rotted man
ure, which was thoroughly incorporated
with the soil. Al low, fiat hill was then
made and seed planted. When the
vines were large enough to run the
whole surface was covered to the depth
Of q foot OF fifteen inches with wheat
straw. The straw was placed close up
around the vinss. No cultivation what
ever was given afterward; no weeds or
grass grew. The vines spread over the
straw, and the melons matured clean
and nice. The yield was abundant
and the experiment an entire success.
The editor Of the Journal of Agricul-
ture says:
We have a plan practiced in Our W
garden, but only for the purpose ofpro-
ducing some very fine specimens for our
own use. A barrel, old and Ieaky, was
set on the ground, o bank thrown up
around it to within a foot of the top and
extending out say eight feet from it. Tn
this bank, two feet from the barrel, WAC
placed a sufficient number Of seeds
The barrel was filled with well rotted
manure, not so old Of course as to have
lost its strength. About every second
day . few buckets of water, or as much
As the barrel would hold, were thrown
In on the manure, from which it would
seep out through the cracks into the
bank, and any person can imagine the
effect. We had a crop Of magnificent
melons. Lest the watering might be-
neglected the barrel should pc placed
close 20 q pond or other water supply.

The Decorator and Furnisher makes
a very sensible protest against the use
of very hard drying yarnish for hard
wood floors. Such fine hard finish
must and will scratch up with the nails
in boots, every mark being permanent
at least it stays until the floor is
again vanished, which those who have
had experience know to quite a job.
Therefore the finish must be something
that is soft without being sticky, SO
that whatever marks occur on the sur
face can easily be removed with a brush
or cloth-something, in fact, that
will work like the old-fashioned
beeswax, without the Excess
sive work necessary to apply and polish
it, and yet be free from the sickness
attending the use of that article" There
is a wax finish which is said to answer
these conditions. With a new floor
"the first thing to do after the floors are
smoothed and sandpapered is to fill the
grain of the wood thoroughly with some
good patent filler, and the grain of the
wood is brought ont much better by
using a dark filler, which fills In the soft
porous parts Of the wood, and when it
is wiped off, the close, hard portions
make a very pretty shading, and cen
trast with the darker portions" The
Lighter woods, oak, ash and yellow pine
keep their good looks longer, under
proper yarnish, than the darker floors.

Perceiving that the men were unable

that his resolution wavered. Then
recollecting his former artifice, he
raised Alice from the arms Of the war

reckoning Hayward to follow, he mo-
toned for the encircling crowd to open.
But Cora, instead of obeying the i'm
