EDITORIAL NOTES.

The letter of ga Father" shows
up lamentable tendency of the
times in very forcible manner.
With all the boasted advancement of
this age, the aversion to personal
contact with the soil is symptom of
decadence which is giving serious
concern to social scientists of
every country.

COLEMAN'S CANE PLANTER.

This interesting machine, inn
proved upon the strength of recent
experiments, was given a. trial on
Mr.. Dillingham's estate, Beretania
street, this morning. Whatever may
be said of some of the details of
mechanism, the trial demonstrated
to the satisfaction of the witnesses
that cane can be planted by machin-
cry. The notice was both scant and
short, so that the sugar interest
was not largely represented. Briefly
described, the cane planter consists
Of a double mould-board plough,
raised and lowered by a scrcw-lever-
age; double feed hopper, with q
toothed cylinder at the end of either
division, to throw stick of cane at
each revolution into spout leading
to the ground behind the plough a
pair of shares bringing up the rear
to cover the seed, and rcccptacles
for the seed cane fore and aft on the
carriage. Four horses drew the
machine with apparently too great
case, for those who knew all about
it said they went over the ground
too fast. The feeding was done in
turn by Mr.. Clarke, of the 1dcerti-
ser editorial staff, the last past and
the present editor of the BULLETIN,
and the Inventor, Mr.. Coleman. The
manner in which the newspaper men
acquitted themselves in that capacity
should forever protect them from the
stigma of not knowing what they are
talking about when they discourse
upon sugar culture. Owing to poor
material there was q break of cogS,
which, however, did not materially
affect the experiment. The cane
was set about as well as if done by
hand, at a rapid horse walk and COW
cred satisfactorily. With further
improvements, which appear to be
practicable in minor points and in
the direction of greater simplicity,
there is little doubt that Coleman S
Cane Planter will be one of the de-
vices to greatly cheaper sugar pro-
duction in the near future. 1t may
be added that the double mould
boards of the machine are those for
which Messrs. B. f. Dillingham; &
Co. are agents. They are designed
upon straight lines, thus avoiding
dragging of the soil and ensuring q
clean furrow. Planters who have
used them in ploughs give them
unqualified praise as the acme of
perfection. These mould-boards are
patented in the United States. The
writer would acknowledge the kind
ness of Mr.. West, President of the
Hawaiian Carriage Manufacturing
Company, for pleasant drive to
and from the field behind his spirited
horse.

DENVER, March 3l.-Presideut Love
joy, of the Denver & Rio Grande railway,
returned from New York this morning
and it is stated upon good authority that
he Immediately asked for the designations
of Col d. c. Dodge, general manager;
j. A. McNlurtrie, chief engineer and b.
f. Woodward, superintendent of tele-
graph. President Lovejoy refuses to see
the reporters. Both Dodge and McMur-
trie are IL of the city. 1t is believed
that this action was counsellod by the
board of directors and that the trouble
grows out of the cheap rate contract made
by the Palmer and Dodge management
with the Colorado Coal & Iron company,
in which both are heavily interested.

Dastardly Assassination.

GALVESTON, March 3l.-The News
Dallas special says: At moor to-day
Michael Burns, an inoffcnsive and popu-
lar writer stepped out of the james hotel
into the alley adjoining and was immedi-
atel shot down in cold blood and soon after
died. Willis Adams, with two smoking
pistols in his hands, was arrested on the
spot for the crime. He is a resident OF
Dallas, employed as a drummer by Derby
& Day, of st. Louis, and is a brother Of
Samuel Adams, the banker. The accused
for years has been on intimate relationship
with Polly Parker, the most notorious of
the Dallas demi monde, who two years
ago established a house of the worst re-
pute adjoining Burns's residence, whose
family are said TO have been subjected to
outrageous insults and persecution by
Adams, Madame Parker and the inmates
of the den.
The killing has aroused public indigna-
ton to a high pitch. The streets are
filled with excited men Of all classes, and
hundreds are heard openly to declare in
favor of going to the jail tonight to lynch
Adams and also tear Madame Parkers
house down. News from Cincinnati has
aroused the public mind and on every
hand the remark is heard: 1--WE need a
little of Cincinnati here. The sheriff
has doubled his force and warned the
people that attempts at lynching will re-
suit in the loss of many lives. Adams
has secured several of the ablcst lawyers
in the city, and this is eagerly commented
on in connection with his wealthy relation

After the Battle.

LONDON, March Slater advices give
the details of Gordon's engagement near
Halfyey, on the 10th instant. The rebels
pursued the Egyptians two miles after the
battle. The confusion during the retreat
was fearful to behold. The Egyptian
regulars and Bashi bazouks kept shouting
shouting out that their generals had be-
trayed them. The wounded received no
attention for seven hours. The troops
had been clamoring for three weeks be
fore they met the enemy, in the early
part of the encounter the Egyptians were
successful and had the enemy in full re-
treat when their cavalry made a dashing
charge despite the reverse. The inhabi-
tants still remain staunch friends to Cor
don. One Arab lent Gordon a thousand
pounds as the treasury is empty. Another
Arab equipped 1000 blacks for him. Two
black pashas have been arrested fol
charging into the ranks of their OWE
troops, thus allowing the enemy to entel
the gap made.

Sad Suicide.

ST. LouIs, March 3l.-Mary Weilde, a
bright German girl of. II, until a few
weeks ago lived happily at home with her
parents, who own quite 4 large grocery
store at No, l29 South Second street.
Theodore Stebcr, a young baker, came
along, and, after a short acquaintance,
prevailed upon Mary to run away from
home and live with him as his wife and
sweetheart. The two got along so well
together that Mary's parents were left
unacquainted with her new home, and
saw nothing Of her until Sunday two
weeks ago, when She came back to the
house of her father.
Finding no one but her mother at home,
Mary unbosomed herself and said she had
been enticcd away from home under
promise of marrige, and that she had
lived happily until that day, when Theo-
dore had told her that he was not going
to marry her, and what was more, he
was not going to keep her any longer. -
Hearing this much she had run away
from him, and had only come home to beg
her mothers forgiveness and tell her hat
she no longer wanted to live, but was
going to drown herself. Before the weep
ing mother could grant forgiveness or take
her child back to her arms the girl fled
from the house, the mother following,
screaming to her daughter to come back.
The poor girl ran down Poplar street,
with several persons running after her.
As she crossed the railroad track on the
levee, an engine attached to a long train
of freight cars came along and separated
her from those who were in hot pursuit.
After the train had passed the girl was
looked for, but no trace of her was found.
All but her mother believed it a case Of
suicide, but the latter chung to the theory
that the girl was alive, and had returned
to her lover. This morning q lot Of boat.
men out on the river saw the girls body
floating along, and they lowed it ashore
and had it taken to the morguc. The
police had a description, and, recognizing
Mary Weilde, they called in the father
and mother. Since the girl disappear,
ance, Steber has also been missing, and
some Of his friends think he "a over.
come with remorse at his own action, and
took the same route as his unfortunate
victim.
