The Fight with the Potato Disease.

In 1875 a great flood of light was
thrown on the whole subject through
one of those fortunate accidents that are
only turned to acc unit by skilled and
observant men. Early in that summer
what was considered new potato dis
ease made its appearance. MIR. u. W.
Smiths attention was directed to this
circumstance, and his Investigations led
him to the conclusion that it was only
the old enemy after all. A more i'm
portant result of his inquiries was the
discovery of the resting spores, and IN
fact the whole life history of the pero-
nospora. To become thoroughly ac-
uuainted with such life history is
great victory in the struggle with the
foe. A hope of ultimate triumph begins
to dawn, nor does such hope appear
baseless when we consider what has
been accomplished in other fields of re-
search. For instance, the souring OF
wine, the turning of alcohol into vinegar,
and the spelling of vinegar itself, were
known to be occasioned by minute
fungus, and remedy was found by one
of the greatest of French scientific men,
Pasteur. In other cases similar success
has crowned human endeavor. Shall
man be ever baffled and beaten by this
potato mould-this tiny foe, the life
history of which we now knows SO well
Better things are surely to be hoped O
| the race.

The q. S. Supreme Court

Every morning few lawyers, gener-
ally wearing black dress suits, congre-
gate in the United States Supreme
Court room, which was formally the
Senate chamber. At eleven o'clock the
door of side room opens and MarshaI
Nicolay enters, followed by the Onlet
.Justice and the Associate Justices, wear
ing their black robes of office. Nicolay
announces, as he enters: "The Supreme
Court of the United States" the lawyers
rising and assuming respectful attitudes.
The Chief Justice stands before the GEN.
trail arm chair, and the Justices stand ON
his right and left in the order OF their
respective appointments. The Court
then bows to the bar, and the bar re-
turns the bow reverentially. The bust
ness of the court then proceeds. Once
a week decisions are rendered in the
presence of half dozen lawyers and
DOZEN spectators, more or less, which
ratify or annul important Legislation,
confirming statutes enacted, or setting
them one side as worthless. The Supreme
Court is, consequently, really the highest
power in the land, and the Chief Justice
and his associates are profoundly aware
of their Importance.
With the exception of Mr.. Justice
Bradley, the Judges of the Supreme
Court are men of great magnitude at
the waistband. They eat more good
dinners and drink more old Madeira
wine than any other class of officials at
Washington, and their ''set" is the most
exclusive. It has been the custom in
years past for the Court to make for
NAL visit to the President on the opening
day of each term, and the neglect OF
| Mr.. Arthur to curtail his ''outing" that
he might be at the White House to re-
ceive this visit, has elected censorial re-
marks. Indeed, to hear some OF these
venerable old ''roosters" in black gowns
sigh, as they talk about the Presidents
absence on their opening day, one
would think that some great calamity
must ensue, and that the wheels of gov
ernment would soon stop. The Presi'
dent, however, will soon make it right
by giving the court its clerk, its marshal
and its reporter, with their wives, a Jolly
good dinner. Boston Budget,

Household Hints and Helps.

Mock strawberry shortcake is de-
scribed as follows: A can of peaches
was opened and the large pieces were
cut into small ones; then some skiing"
apples were stewed little, and were cut
into small pieces also and mixed with the
peaches in the proportion of one apple to
nearly three peaches. A nice shortcake
was made and baked and the fruit
spread upon it, with sugar sprinkled
over it and with liberal allowance OF
cream.
If you fear that preserves of any kind
are liable to ferment, they should be
heated to the boiling point and thor
oughly scalded, to be safe for the winter.
The same is true of soup stock.
Beef fritters are nice for breakfast;
chop pieces of steak or cold roast beef
very fine. Make batter of milk, -four
and an egg and mix the meat with it.
Put lump of butter into saucepan, let
it melt, then drop the batter into it

parsley.

Converted In a Well.


The Marietta (Ga) Journal says:
Just over the county line in Paulding
County lives Mr.. Manning Phillips. He
has a well forty-fve feet deep, walled
mp with rock forty feet. He could get
no one to go down in it to finish the
work desired until last Monday, when
Mr.. James Ross, a fearless, able-bodied
fellow, said he wasn't afraid to go down
in the old well. A rope was fastened to
his body and he was lowered nearly to
the bottom, when those standing around
the well on top of terra firma heard
rumbling noise and were Mortified to see
the rock, well and dirt tumhling in upon
the living man in the depths below.
There came a faint cry for help. His
audible voice invoked the presence and
prayer of the preacher. The holy man
of God replied, "I'll do what I can for
YOU, Jimmie" And thus completely
walled in with rock above him, below
him and around him, he was unable to
move his body, but managed to get his
mana IO LIS dhl puoh bhS NAA Y
away. The rope around his body was
cutting him fearfully. The men above
thoughtle7sly tugged away at the rope
and were about to pull him in twain. He
succeeded in getting his knife out of his
pocket and severed the rope that bound
him.
The men worked for dear life in re-
moving the rock and dirt and to rescue
Mr.. Ross from his sufocating tomb
For seven hours and half he was thus
imprisoned. When he was reached he
was almost unconscious, but the fresh
air soon revived him. He thanked God
and his rescuers for deliverance and said
he went down in that we'll wicked man
but henceforth he would lead different
life.

Hiring a Cook.

About noon yesterday met family
man steaming down Fourteenth street
toward Sixth avenue in state of con-
siderable mental excitement.
"Those Internal servants of mine are
bothering me again." he explained
hotly, ''and I'm going to fix things up
this morning. I know a capable girl
when 1 see her, and my wife doesn't.
That's the difference. Hitherto my
wife has done the hiring, but now I pro-
pose to take hand. Come down and

When we rushed into the Office five
minutes later the solemn woman at the

of domestics turned forty or fifty heads
toward US with more or less interest.

sharply, 'a good plain cook"
The woman at the desk continued to
write without even looking at us. sat
down on the windowsill and tried to
figure out the percentage of American
faces in the two long rows, while the
man who wanted cook stormed up and
down, explaining his views to the
solemn woman in black. She did not
notice. After tedious wait she folded
her letter, sealed it, and put it in the
mail box. Then she wiped her pen
carefully on an old rag, and put it in
the drawer. After examining her nails
casually she rang a bell aud said "Twen.
ty-seven" sharply. A paper lay on the
desk. She took it up, opened it calmly,
and, turning her back, began to read
with entire absorption.
"Twenty-seven" wore jersey, asneer,
pair of lace gloves, and mouthfu of
variegated and full-sized teeth. She
walked forward, planted herself before
my friend, and said, before he had time
to speak:

What the Moon is Doing.

The tides are caused mainly by the
moon, as it were, catching hold of the
water as the earth revolves around on its
axis. This must cause friction on the
earth as it revolves, and friction, as
every one knows, causes loss OF power.
Suppose a wheel, with hair round its
rm. like circular brush such as is used
for hair brushing by machinery; if this
brush be revolving rapidly, and we hold
our hand ever so lightly on the hair, SO
that it is slightly rubbed backward rs
the wheel revolves, we can understand
that the speed of the wheel will be
gradually diminished, until at last it
will be brought to stand-still, pro-
vided there is no additional power COM
municated to the wheel by machinery
or hand beyond what was given to set 1t
spinning round. Now this is somewhat
analogous to what is happening to the
earth in its rotation. There is reason to
suppose that the action of the tides IS
slowly but surely lessening the speed of
the earth's rotation, and consequently
increasing the length of the day, and
that this action will continue until the
earth revolves on its own axis in the
same time that the moon takes to revolve
round the earth. Then the day, instead
of being twenty-four hours as now, will
be about twenty-eight days, and the
earth will be exposed TO the full blaze of
the sun for about fourteen days at a
time. The change this will bring about
on the face of the earth can hardly be
exaggerated. All life, both animal and
vegetable, will be destroyed; all water
will be evaporated; the solid rocks will
be scorched and cracked, and the whole
world reduced to dreary and barren
wilderness. 1t is supposed by some
that the moon has already passed
through all this, hence its shattered and
bare-looking surface. That the earth,
being so much larger, has more quickly
! acted upon the oceans which once were
upon the moons surface, and stopped
almost entirely its revolution round lis
own axis, thus causing it to have day
equal to twenty eight of our days, and
the heat of the sun has already done tc
it what in future ages it will do to the
earth.
