Clarke County last week.
Michael Davitt, speaking to mass

Gus condition. Her sickness has been
caused by clot of blood in the heart.
The German press persists that Aus

strong probability of the truth of what
they say is found in the fact that this
Government has asked Minister Francis

Uses for Sawdust.

When urged TO burn or in some other
way dispose OF their saw.dust, lumber
men have objected that they could not
afford the cost. There is hope that the
%perplexing problem of dealing with
this nuisance may be solved, for a pro-
cess has now been discovered by which
the refuse sawdust may be made TO yield
o handsome profit, When dry it is car
BOMBED in iron ~retorts, aud in the pro-
cess, there is given off 80 per cent. of
volatile products. the remaining 20
per cent. being graduated charcoal
which can be used in making gunpow-
der, filters, lining re~frigerators, aud as

tar it could be pressed into bricks and
used for fuel: % Of the 50 per cent. OF
the volatile product is in the form OF
fixed gases, which can be used for heat.

genious acid, and after being purified
and concentrated, is used in white lead,

The sawdust from yellow pine and otl-
er wood rich in resin Yields also a con.
siderable amount Of ~turpentine, in the
gathering Of which SO many trees are
every year sacrificed. II is estimated
that in saving inch boards of pine, hem

Four Glasses of Red Noses,

DIR. William Stevens tells a New York

classes of red noses, and he describes
hem As follows. Those who are afflicted
With these torchlight professions on
heir faces can doubtless form their own
udcuient as TO which variety affects
hem:
There is the whisky red nose, which
s often cultivated by Its owner with as
much pride and attention as he devotes
20 the coloring Of the m"eerschaum pipe.
Of course, the only remedy for this kind
Of a red nose is TO abstain from the use
If alcoholic beverages. 1t all depends
lpon whether q man will sacrifice his
appetite to his appearance. The second

Does it hurt? Oh, no, e cours not
it's a very pleasant operation, like pull
ing teeth, The third class of red nose
may be called the generous diathesIs
nose, which Is caused by canoe and can
only be cured by the cure of the cancer.
The fourth class OF these red noses
The red nose that Is most common 10
men and women Of "good habits, F" as the
gentleman who adyertises says-is the
red nose produced by superficial capil-
larry circulation in the veins and arteries
are so minute in their normal condition
that they will not receive the red cor
puscles in the blood, and therefore no
redness is appreciate when the arteries
and skin are healthy. The reduess is
caused by q disorganized condition OF
the ~capillaries. The minute veins be
come enlarged and the red corpuscl u
are admitted and show through the skin.
The only cure for these red noses are
climate, diet and exercise IA regulation
Of the system. Some people who's,
noses are red in New York would fine
] them the color of the rest Of their skin
in Florida or at the north pole. ant
people whose noses are red in thOs,

mate like this.

How a Horse Jockey Lives.

For O steady boy in q good stable,
who really rides we'll, obeys orders, and
is honest, the peeuuisry rewards are
considerable, a Y the Mirror Of Ameri-
can sports. A salary of $50 or 500 per
month, supplemented by $50 for riding,
$50 for winning a race, with occasional
tips for pulling off q big event, easily
runs up to $4,000 or 1900 a year, or
twice the emolument of en- average law
yer, doctor or engineer, and fully up to
the income OF the captain of an ocean
steamer, with his gIeat weight Of re.
spOnsibility. Great jockeys, OF course,
do much better than this. They
are paid like prima dome or fashion
able preachers. But the jockeys
life has its shadows. His nerve may
fail, VIXEN his occupation is gone, for
a C horses are often vicious brutes and
very quick to detect q lack of courage
and decision on the part of their riders.
Even worse, when the jockey may be-
gin to take on flesh, when he either be-
comes too heavy to ride orr is condemned
to a life of m~artyrdom to keep down the
growing corpulency. To this forced
wasting may be attributed many short
lives and broken constitutions. Then
there are temptations TO drink and ex-
cess, destructive to nerve and brain and
insiduous temptations TO dishonesty,
Lastly, there is an ever present danger
from falls and collisions.

woodChuck Scheme in Connecticut
From the Hartford Dispatch.

aI1'1
Clinton and Avon are adjoining
towns IN the Litchfeli Mountains that
are infestes with woodciucks. The
seloctmen of each town offered honnties
OF 80 cents for each wookchuck killed.
The Avon selectmen required as Isoof
the woodchuck's tail while the Canton
selectmen demanded the deposit OF the
ears. For the past year there have
been unusually large demands upon the
town exehequer for bounties in each of
these towns, and, when by accident the
Canton selectmen and Avon selectmen
met and compared notes, they found
by a singular coincidence that the num-
her of tails submitted to the Ayoa Sc.
lectmen was precisely the same as the
number OF pairs of ears shown up to
the Canton officers. Investigation
showed that when the Avon bays caught
q woodchuck they cut off its cars a..d
tail, and the Canton boys did tho same
thing, and then they swopped ears for
tails. Tins n woodchuck did douh,e
duty. The selcctmen Of both towns,
With great dignity, thereupon decided
TO pay no more bounties for wood
c%hucks. and the farmers are Indignant
thereat,

The Dog Ought 10 Go.

Professor Z. M. Shelton has long
dared to maintain that "a dog is a nui-
sance" (even an alleged good" one)
which 10 careful farmer will tolerate
about his premises. Confirmatory Of
this radical assertion he records, in The
Industriahst, the following observation :
"Some days ago we attended a sale,
which included among the offerings
several valuable mich cows, and a very
bright, intelligent-appearing mongrel
shepherd dog. The owner expatiated at
length upon the merits Of that dog;
how he would drive 'headoff,' and
bunch cattle, until we began TO think
we were guilty Of q hasty generalizi a.
ton about dogs. The dog sold for So.
Shortly afterward we made some in
quiries Of one Of the attendants about a
graded Jersey COW Of considerable val
ne. The young man told us that about
a month before, this COW, when tied Ia
a fence, had been attacked 10y the dog,
which bit her severely about the heels,
throwing her into a paroxysm of terror
which caused her to lose her half-grown
calf within an hour. On account OF
this abortion the COW sold for about s2C
under the average price OF similar cow
sold at this sale. We stand firmly in
u old position on the dog question.
