The Speaker and the Lady.

An incident occurred yesterday evening in
one of the three-cent cars that go from the
Capitol to the White House, which attracted
no attention AT the time. but which. had it
occurred in the days before the war. would
have been widely commented upon. The car
was full OF gentlemen and ladies, and Speaker
Carlisle was sitting beside me looking very
grave and probably thinking himself a great
fool for having accepted such trying posi-
ton as Speaker of this Congress, when a
Young negro girl entered the car. There was
no seat for her. and she grasped the strap.
looking vainly around tor a seat. There was
none TO be seen, and no one rose to give one.
At lergth the Speaker coming out of his
meditation saw her. He halt rose to give
her his place. when he changed his mind and
crowding the rest of us towards the end of
the car. made room for her beside himself,
and motioned her 10 sit down. She did so.
There was no ostentation about il, and the
Speaker relapsed into his moody medi.ations
as soon as it was over Cor. ClerelGnd
Herald.

Fritz and the inscription it bears. Fritz,
let fy,' in the follow ing manner When. in
1877, the Emperor William visited Essen,
this steamhammer attracted his attention.
Krupp presented to him the mschinist, Fritz,
who. he said. handled the hammer with such
nicely and precision as not to injure or touch
an object placed in the centre of the block.
The Emperor at once put his diamond stud
ded watch on the spot indicated. and beckon.
ed to the mschnist to set the hammer in mo.
ton. Fritz hesitsted out of consideration
for the precious object. but Krupp urged
him on by saying, Fritz, let fly" Down
came the hammer, and the watch remained
untouched. The Emperor gave it to the
msehinist as a souvenir. and krupp added
1000 marks to the present-Lon. Echo.

small cakes. and cook ten minutes as di-
rected. Things to be carefully noted {;
That the dumplings boil Just ten minutes,
that they do not sink too deep in the soup.
that the soup is boiling rapidly when they
are put in, that the cover fits tight on the

and that the pot boils all the time, so that
the steam shall be kept up. These few
directions carefully followed will ensure
success every time.
SPONGE CAKE.-Three eggs. one and a
half cups of sugar, two of flour, one half
cup of cold water, one teaspoonful and a
half of baking powder. Beat the sugar
and eggs together. and add the water
when they are light, then the flour in

The Outlook.

The Home Farm after having received
from numerous correspondents in different
portions of the State, eommunications on
the appearances and indications of the
season, as to the condition of grass lands
and farm stock, the area to be devoted to
the principal cultivated crops, the rate Of
farm wages. ETC., ETC.. gives the following
summary as to the outlook:
l. Grass in both field and pasture, came
through the winter in excellent condition,
and promises abundant pasturage and a
good start for hay crop-so far as pres
ent indications can give significance.
2. More field corn will be grown as
fewer factories will operate less potatoes
will be planted; and in situations good
local markets more attention given
To iarm-garden crops In these and
other ways our farmers are more
and more evincing the business
principles which they bring to the per-
formance of their work.
3. Everywhere are the most positive
evidences of Improvement, and advance
ment and progress. Better methods are
employed, better implements used. better
stock kept. better culture and higher fertil'
iza:ion practiced, and as a result better
results and more satisfactory returns from
labor.
4. The condition of farm stock is gen,
orally healthy. with the exception of sheep
II is somewhat alarming to note the uni.
form prevalence OF disease among sheep,
which is OF such a character as TO require
investigation. we think. into its nature,
