VEGETABLE GARDENS.

How They Can BE Kept just as Attrae-
tive as Flower Gardens.
A vegetable garden may be made to
look quite pretty and inviting by SIMPLY
running paths through.it, and in plant
ing and sowing the seed along the same
for border or edging. Most vegetable
gardens are labyrinth, a maze,
tangle; there is no way of getting
around or through them; one can go so
far and no farther, can view the land
scape DER from point or two, can see
that there is forest of corn, patch OF
potatoes, few sprigs of lettuce. and
generally plenty of weeds. There seems
to be SO little ground to spare in the
country, every inch seems to be of SO
much consequence that none can be
wasted in paths. But / think a path,
instead Of being waste, is q great adj
vantage. for the sun gets chance to
warm the ground, and makes the veg.
etables much sweeter and earlier. Now
vegetable garden can be made as In
teresting and beautiful as a flower gar
den, and must say that I enjoy mine
as much as / do my flowers. l have
laid it out with straight paths, the main
paths being five feet wide, and are bor-
dered with satisfy and parsnips; the
narrower paths, between the beds, are
eighteen inches wide, and can be bor-
dered with fern leaved parsley; it makes
beautiful edging, and grows hand
somer as the season advances. Every
thing should be planted in straight rows;
mine runs east and west as that offers
less resistance to the west wind, and
everything looks much heater, the wind
not having a chance to confuse things.
A garden of the size of mine, eighty
feet wide by one hundred and fifty feet
long, furnishes much work, but ''know-
ing how is half doing it, holds true.
Never let the weeds get ahead. The
scuffie hoe is the most important I'M
plement, and must be kept in constant
use. If the weeds are cut down when
they are just above the ground, it is
comparatively little work to have the
garden look neat and clean, and a
woman can accomplish much, as can
testify.-Cu. VSck's Magazine.

CHAPTER XVI.
THE DISAPPOINTED LOVER.

OF course, Erastus was told of Lucy $
engagement to Mr.. Annelsey. In fact,
he learned it from Jennie in advance of
gay other member of the family.
As they were driving home from the
landing on their return from San Fran
cisco and chatting of those things which
are of more interest to young people,
namely. other young people, Jennie
suddenly broke out with:
''say, Luce, I'm going to tell Ras, =
and without waiting for a reply or Civ
ing any heed to the bushes which
flooded her sisters face and neck, she
ratified on with all the speed which her
tongue could command: How'd you
like T. have Mr.. Annelsey for brother
in-law, Ras? know You didn't used
to like him very well, but you'll have to
now, for Lucy and he are engaged, and
are going to be married when he comes
back from New York in about a year.
There now, Luce, it's out, and you
won't have to be carrying the awful
load of having to tell it any longer
4 think you are just as mean as you
can be, y retorted Lucy, half angry and
uncertain whether to laugh or cry. 81
hadn't said a word about Mr.. Ensign.
who has been almost as constant as
your shadow ever since we met him on
the boat. You would be engaged to
him, too-you know you would if it
wasn't that he has got nothing to 90 to
housekeeping with. So, there now,
Ras. you know all about us girls, and
can confess that you are going to
marry Julia Ennis if you want to with
out blushing. !"
But Erastus made no such confession,
and instead of blushing, his face became
very white, and he looked straight
ahead and did not speak for some sec
onds, and then said, in a, voice which
sounded hoarse and unnatural:

CINCINNATI, O., October 22.-The official
count has occupied the attention of the
candidates and others all day. 1t has been
closely watched by both parties. During
the day the Judges of precinct F, Ninth
Ward, came in to complete their returns.
Those which the Clerk found when he
came to canvass that vote, consisted OF a
blank tally sheet and DuckwOrth Club
election return blank with the
vote filled in. Ex-Governor NOyes,
acting for the Republican candidates, pro-
tested against permitting an amended
return being received. The Clerk, how
ever. received the return and NOyes said
the matter would be brought before the
Court When precinct d, Nineteenth Ward,
was reached Ex-Governor NOyes protested
against its being received because the count
of votes did not begin until Wednesday
night, Twenty-Five hours after the polls
closed. The protest was noted and the
precinct was canvassed. A protest was also
made by NOyes against precinct F, Nine

protest was noted and the count proceeded.
Late in the afternoon DeansOn Wilson. attOr-

canvasser that he would apply for re-
straining order forbidding the counting OF
the precincts in the cases where protests
had been made and also forbidding the is
suing of certificates Of election to the Demo
cratic candidate for Senator. The clerk re-
quested his attorneys. Messrs. FOllett and
Jordan, to represent him.
The application was made before Judge
.Buckwalter and temporary injunction
granted as asked. The motion to make it
permanent will be argued to day. This, of
course, will prevent any official announce
ment.

Terrible Double Murder.

KANSAS CITY, NO., October ga
double murder, the most horrible and most
boldly executed that has ever shocked the
people of Kansas City, was committed yes
terday afternoon at 40 East Eighteenth
street by some unknown fiend. The vic
tins were Catherine Conway and her
eleven year-old daughter, Kittic, the wife
and child of John Conway, a well known
dairyman. The bodies Of mother and ci.ild
were found lying across each other on the
bed, their heads terribly beaten in with .
coupling pin, which was found covered with
blood lying outside, where it had been
thrown down. John d. Conway, the
husband and father was away at the time
getting his supply of milk. Various the
cries exist as to the cause Of the crime, the
general opinion being that it was an attempt
at rape and that negro was the culprit
The police last night arrested a negro
named George Meyers, on East Third street,
with marks of blood on his dress, and he
was identified by witness as having been
seen near the house at the time Of the
murder. Great excitement exists.
