attend to the chores, leaving the little
boy, not yet four years old, and little
girl, not old enough to walk, by them
selves. The little girl drew burning
hay from the stove and threw upon q
pile of twists lying near. Mrs. l.. came
in IN time to extinguish the fire but not
before the children had inhaled the hot
smoke. DR.. Sill was called and did all
that he could to alleviate the suffering.

| in the sad rites of burial. The baby
was not severely burned and is rapidly

TO those interested IN Horticulture.
The meeting OF the society noticed
aheYe should be Il matter of lively per-
sonal interest to every one who owns a
farm or garden spot In South Dakota.
AS people we are paying thousands of
dollars for trees wholly unsuited to our
climate and so worthless to us, and
other thousands are yearly paid for
valuable trees that are lost through i'm
proper handling. The design of the
horticultural society is to collect and
disseminate all possible knowledge
game by experience AMI observation
on allpoints relating to fruit and forest
raising. AS a society they have no
secrets that they are not NOSE willing
and anxious to impart, neither are the
discussions confined to the, members
in the least. You that have planted
and succeeded come and tell us Whit
you succeeded with. and how. and you
that have planted and failed will Doubt
less learn why you failed and how to at
/ tain success next time.
/ Let the1adics come and tell us what
4 success and failure they have met with
/ in the tlor;ll and ornamental depart
4 ment of horticulture or in the line OF
small fruits that others may profit by
their experience Come let US reason
together.

Patronize yonr home merchants in
every instance. 1t is a very poor ad-
vertisement OF a county for its people
to be sending off to eastern towns for
arti cles which are kept in their own
town. The interests OF farm and town
communities are identical, for the val
ue OF produce and farm property must
increase with the advancement and i'm
provement of the neighboring towns.
while Il prosperous farming community
must bring alike prosperity to all trades
and business. Ii is then q short sighted
policy for the farmer to send his money
to eastern cities, and thus cut down the
trade of his home merchants, while it
is equally impolitic for the merchant
not to mark his goods rs reasonable as
possible and thus bring trade to his
own city instead of sending it to some
! other town.

James Russell Lowell, late minister
to England, said in Boston the other
day. can English naval officer told
me only short time ago that our
policy with regard to navy was on
the whole the best. DO not create a
navy said he, until you need It, and
then build your vessels with all the
latest modern improvements l don't
know but that he is right. OF course
it would take q little time and would
cause an enormous outlay of money.
/ don't think, however, that we shall
be called upon to use a. navy against
England right away. The relations
between the two countries could not
be more pleasant or friendly, yet war
is not an impossibility, Wehave Eng
lish blood in our veins, and we have
just as much English pride as those
across the water. Neither country
would consent to be bulldozed; but
that Is not likely to occur. Thepolicy
that has been maintained between the
two countries is, I think, the wisest
that could, be pursued, and am con-
6dent that my successor Will do just
right. Mr.. Phelps is man 1efgreat
ability. Personally, he is one of the
pleasantest gentlemen I ever met. j
am sure the interests of our country
will not suffer in his hands,"

Spurgeon on British immortality.

Rev. Mr.. Spurgeon has produced a sensa-
ton by an article over his signature in the
recent issue of the English Monthly Review.
In this he narrates in detail the story OF
the death last year of Justice Williams in
a brothel, and other facts brought out in
the recent LETTERS case He makes this ex-
ample from high official life the basis OF a
denunciation of English immortality, and
says:
Sodom in it's most putrid days could
scarcely exceed London for vice.
10 our utter disgust and horror,
the names OF the greatest in
the land are openly mentioned in connep-
ton with the filthiest debauchery and most
hideous evils that drag in the wake OF vice.
These things are alleged to be the chosen
luxury OF certain hereditary legislators and
rulers in England. Woe unto thee, Eng
land, when thy great ones love the harlot's
housetop. Deep is our shame when we
know that our judges are not clean and
that social purity is put to the blush by
magistrates of so mean degree; yea, that
courts OF justice lend themselves to cover
ing up and hushing Hp iniquities: YET shall
not God be grieved by such a nation as
this? What is coming over us? What
clouds are aarkenipg OUT sky.

Since the company has Strengthened
out thl curves between New York and
Philadelphia, the speed Of trains has
been increased. A reporter says that
rarely a day passes that some train
does not run between the two cities,
ninety miles, in 100 minutes, and very
little attention is paid to it. IL fact,
the great mass of travellers are in con-
tented ignorance of the high speed.
The quickest time on record going
west was made on the night Of May 6,
when Nine. Fursch-Madi's special
train, which consisted Of engine 953,
in charge OF Driver F: B. Jones, one
coach and a parlor car, the latter for
ballast, ran from Jersey City to Phil
adelphia in one hour and thirty-two
minutes, exclusive of a five-minute
stop at Trenton. This almost equals
the fastest recorded time coming cast,
made by Engineer Osmund with To-
connective 1874, which made the trip in
ninety three minutes, including two
full stops and three slow downs.
