Those who have not yet sown their fall
crops of turnips should not neglect the op-
portunity which the present excellent sea-
son affords. An old rule among successful
turnip planters to begin planting In July
and continue until October II necessary to
obtain crop, is an exceedingly valuable
one, and one that shonld not be neglected
BY any one who possesses q small piece OF
ground. There are but few of the human
family that have an apathy for well cooked
turnips, and they oftsn come in at very
appropriate time, as an acceptable stock
food. A small piece of land planted in
turnips will yield good return, and as they
can be grown 10 perfection in this locality,
everyone who can do 80, should plant ct
least small patch
The above suggestions, from the Abilene
Reporter, are good and timely. Especially
is that respecting the raising of turniPs for
food for stock worthy of the attention OF
all Stock. in the winter, weary Of constant
dry feed. especially milk cows. and require

DEAF and Blind,
How an Atlanta Woman was made
to See and Hear.

M,,. Minnie Wallace resides with Mrs, George
Fl ickland, Al NcAfse street, Atlanta. Ga. anu
fr ON her lips q Constitution reporter learned
the following appalling sto'y:
Several monts ago she became almost totally
blind and de AZ, could not taste any thing except
silt. Her bones became the seat Of Intense pain,
her Joins were swollen and painful, and evsntu.
ally her whole body and limbs became covered
with spiotches and small sores. Her appetite
failed aud she gradually lost feah and strengh
and had but little use Of herself. as her limbs
and muscles were paralyxed. She. a. wen %
her friends with whom she lived. di,p.ised o.
her recovery. Her sufferings combined with
loss Of hearing and taste, and blindness, were
truly hsartrending.
All treatm ent from physicians and the use Of
medicines seemed powsrless. Her disease was
Blood poison and rheumatism.
As she now SEEMED we'll and hearty the 70:
porter asked what wrought such wonderful
change.
"I used medicine that was recommended BY
frieud,' she replied, "and before one bottle
had been taken ibegen taste and hear. Tho
second bottle relieved all rheumatic pains ana
improved my appetite. When ] had completed
the use Of six bottles my eyesisht and hearing
were fully restored. now feel ~ well %
ever did, and my friends. as we'll a. myself, are
perfectly astounded."
"Whst was the medieinei " asked the report
:.Botsnie Blood Bsim-B. B. s.-wAs the
great remedy that acted 80 powerfully on my
6isesse and cured me. never experienced
any unpleasant symptom from It's use. and iss
action Ia 90 quick that Il surprises ALL,
The reporter then sought phyncian who
know the ease, whereupon he handed us the
following lines:

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Prom Our Regular Cor respondent.

WASHINGTON, Sept. IA, 1885.
The President returned in the most
unostentatious way possible last week
His trip has been agreeable and in
vigorating, and it was limited to the
thirty days granted to Other employees
of the Government.
The simple and unpretentious way
in which Mr.. Cleveland has spent his
holidays might we'll be taken for ar
example for future Presidents, and the
memory of man will not have to &c
very far back to find examples to the
contrary.
Miss Cleveland has been visiting
her sister, Mrs. Yeomans, at Wal
mouth, N. Y, and is expected back al
the White House in October. She
has already received nearly $4,000
on her first book, which will furnish
her pin money for a good while.
Advices received at the General
Land office from different points in
the West indicate that the firm atti-
tude of the Administration in its pur-
pose to protect the public domain is
having a healthy effect. A cores
pondent in Montana states that the
cattlemen are becoming scared and
are shipping vast quantities Of cattle
from the ranges illegally occupied by
them, and that large milling COM
panies which have been engaged in
trespassing upon public timber are
trying to sell, as they now find they
cannot pool their interests with the
cattlemen and land-grabbers, and
sell out the whole country to the En-
glish.

Outrages on Colored Men in louisiana
Because Charged with Promising to
Vote for Prohibition.

New ORLEANS, La. Sept. 18.--Mon-
day night a party Of unknown men,
Just above the line of Winn and Bien-
vile parishes, went to the house OF
Carr Hamilton, colored, OF Bienville,
and took the old man out, tied him
down and beat him numerically, and.
at the same time, tied handkerehiefs
over his wife's face and crammed O
handkerchief in her houth to suppress
her cries, also whipping her. The
same night they went to another COL
ored mans house and took him away
from home, laid him across q log and
beat him numerically. The crowd
had liquor with them. and while they
stopped to rest and take drink he
slipped the ropes and made his es-
cape. They followed for some dis
tance, but were not able to catch him.
Then they went to the house OF an
old colored man named Ray, carried
him away, and beat him SO severely
that he was not able to get back
home, and was found few days al
terward and brought in by friends.
They shot Mr.. g. w. Barron's dogs
at his own fence, and also burned q
house belonging to Mr.. g. F. Babers,
The parties assaulted claim that they
recognized ten Of the desperadoes
who belong to what is known :as the
Anti Prohibition party" in that
neighborhood, and that the parties
assaulted are charged with having
promised TO support the prohibition
movement. The authorities are very
indignant at this outbreak of wanton
lawlessness, and declare they shall be
arrested and punished. Theneeroas
whipped belong to the most intelh-
gent, thrifty and respectable element
OF colored people in that section,
while the assailants are OF the worst
type of cross road hoodluma Gov.
McEnery has promised to offer re-
ward for their apprehension.

Postage Stamps.

Some things are 80 common that
few apprehond the. ingenuity and Ia
Dor required TO make them. Postage
stamps, for instance. are in every
bodys mouth, except the wise ones
who use q sponge but scarcely any
one knows how they are mannfactur-
cd. In printing them ste6i plates
are used on which two hundred
stamps are engraved, Two men arc
kept hard at work, covering them
with colored inks and passing them
to man and girl, who are equally
busy at printing them with large roll
| ing hand presses, After tho small
sheets of paper upon which tho two
hundred stamps are printed have
dried enough, they are sent into an
other room and gummed. The gum
used is peculiar composition, made
of the powder Of dried vegetables
mixed with water, which is much bet
ter than another material, for instance
gum arabic, which cracks the paper
badly. The paper is also of per-
feet texture, some what similar to
that used for bank notes.. After hav-
ing again been dried, this time on
little racks which are famed by
steampower for about an hour, they
are put between sheets Of pasteboard
and pressed by hydraulic presses. ca
pable Of applying q weight OF two
thousand pounds. The next thing ID
to cut the sheets in half each sheet,
of course, when cut contains ore
hundred stamps. This is done by o
girl with large pair of shears, cut
ting by hand being preferred to that
of machinery, which method would
destroy too many stamps. They are
then passed to other squads, who, in
as many operations, perforate the
sheets between the stamps. Next
they are pressed once more, and then
packed and labeled and slowed away
in another room preparatory to be-
ing put in main bags for dispatching
to fill orders. If single stamp is
torn, or any way mutilated, the whole
sheet OF one hundred is burned.
About FIVE hundred thousand Is burnt
every week from this cause. For the
past twenty years not o single sheet
has been lost, such care has been ta-
ken in counting them. During the
time and prograss Of manufacture,
the sheets are counted eleven times.

ST. LOUIS LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
Sr. LouIs, Sept. 1S, 1885

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 1S, 1885.
Ed. FREE Press Sergeant Burke,
chief of detectives here, has resigned
his position, and has made public
some very damaging statements con-
cerning the secret workings OF the
Police Board. II half of what Burke
says be true, the official conduct OF
James L. Blair, the vice-president OF
the board, is unaccountably tyranni-
cal, and very strange indeed, II not
corrupt and disgraceful. The police
boards of St. Louis have caused
great strife and scandal of late years
The better class of our citizens are
disguised with the developments fire.
quently taking place in the corrupt
management Of this political ma
chine. A system of spying and
throat cutting seems to prevail and
the "force" is said to be utterly de,
moralized, and the thieyes who need
all the watching are corrhspondingly
happy and secure.
The arrest of Charles W. Churchill
at the Exposition building yesterday
was sad affair, and the sudden fall
Of this young man isvery distressing
He was for several years a'trusted
postal clerk on good route to Kan
sas City, Mo. Money had been
missed for long time, and by hard
work and "patient search and vigil
long, the rifed letters and their
marked contents were traced to
Churchill. It is the old story of an
employe dissatisfied with the amount
of his salary, and trying to live be-
yond it. Churchill and his noble and
devoted young wife, with their two
beautiful children, were grouped to-
gether chatting happily in a corner
of the Art Hall, when the officer with
the dread summons and warrant came
up to take him. Then there was q
scene from those so innocent and un-
conscious of any wrong, that made
the stoutest- hearted turn away with a
shudder from the sight
The Christian Temperance Union
opened their annual convention night
before-last at the Centenary Metho-
dist Church of this city. The attend
ance was enormous, and the opening
address of Rev. w. III. Black was one
of the most eloquent and powerful
appeals in behalf of Temperance ever
delivered here. CARL SMYTHE.
