While the use of the modern high expio-

and is attended with many drawbacks, a
great future is before them. The very
variety of these powerful agents already
brought into use is suggestive. While dual

railway construction; and they are likely to
effect great changes in the military as in

Plunge the vase into water all over, and let

grass or hayseed. Any very small seed

the vase must be covered with the seed. In
a few DAYS the seed will sprout. and the
grass viii shoot out its fine, needle-like
spears. The vase will be covered with a
beautiful living green, like young wheat

scarce, the growing vase viii be very at
tractive for the window or mantelpiece of q
home.
The vases, with the grass already sprouted
and growing upon them, are sold in the
streets Of New York city. They are consid-
cred quite curious and pretty. You see them
occasionally as . decoration in thu show

Oats and Hens.

Oats make hens poor, and often pack in
their crops, and they die They clog up the
pipe leading from the crop to the gizard,
and, when this is the case, the hens get no
nourishment Another thing-the skins or
bulls of the oats clog up the gizard and pre-
vent its action When the crop is packed,
it is perfectly safe to cut into it and remove
the contents, and then sew it up.

Much doubt arises in some minds as to
whether one should say "Percheron" or
Norman horse. As to that there are two
breeds The Norman is the heavy war horse
of a thousand years ago ''when," as a writer
in The American Agriculturist says, IAN
enormous weight of steel ermor was borne,
both by the rider and horse" Heavy horses
were more needed than active ones. The
Percherons come from Perche, a province
south of Normandy. They are adapted for
uses In which both strength and speed are
required. They are strong and elastic, like
steel They trot easily ten miles an hour,
and draw a stage, diligence or other heavy
passenger wagon.

The Percheron is of Arabian extraction,
hence his fine qualities. The illustration

NECK BUCKLES
The neck slides or buckles which created
such craze abroad last winter, are intro
duced this season by our own manufactur-
ers in bewlldering number of designs, and
promise to have an immense patronage
throug bout the entire country. 1t is very
safe to say these neck slides Will be exceed
ingly fashionable this summer to wear with
dresses cut low enough to expose the neck
of the wearer The slides are worn on a
yevet ribbon of any desired hue, and pre-
sents the appearance, as the name indicates,
OF a buckle or slide. Originally these orna-
ments We're veritable buckles, but the new
est productions are made with pins, SO that
the trinket can readily be transferred from
a neck ornament to a bonnet pin. The pref
test styles are those made OF small dla-
monds pearls, turquoise and other stones,
set so as to show almost no gold at all. Then
there are all gold neck slides in pretty pat
terms. In many instances, these ornaments
lose all suggestion OF the original buckle and
take on the form of a four-leaved clover,
daisy or some fanciful design
GENTLEMENs' RINGS.
The newest styles in rings for gentlemen's

one of red gold. A gem is embedded in each
of the circlets A very popular ring for
gentlemen consists in a band OF crude

UNA AND RESPONDENTS.

As the EAGLE minated once be-
fore, it is impossible TO publish all the
matter sent us on the Bible and Civ
ilization.- We also stated that num-
Der had been consigncd TO the waste
basket, some of which would have
outraged the feelings Of many good
people. The EAGLE is a newspaper
and not q religio-scienfific magazine.
and, while we admitted an article last
Sunday, which was called out by one
or two others, we cannot give up our
space to the discussion of that aud
kindred subjects. And while the
EAGLE has no creed, il is orthodox to
the extent OF standing by the churches,
Sunday schools and all purely moral,
phiIanthropic and religious organiza-
tions, so long as such organizations do
not attempt to invade politics or the
administration of civil government,
as such. Denkcr. Namyl, Una, Philo
Pacificus and several others must seek
some other channel through which to
give the world their thoughts, doubts,
conclusions and speculations. Denker,
who it seems is a graduate of Mich
igan university, writes in manner
which would make him an acceptable
contributor to any scientific or literary
publication and we are sorry to refuse
him but we canaot afford to swsmp
our readers with a class of articles
that only one in ten of daily paper
readers ever look at.

LAMAR.s SENTIMENTS.

The New York Tribune, speaking
of Lamsr's late flag hoistings, says:
sit was natural that Secretary Lamar,
the defender of Jefferson Davis, should
wish to honor the memory of Jacob
Thompson, an unrepentant traitor to
his country, but it was unwise in him
10 do so. The people of the north
have net yet forgotten the iniquitous
course of Thompson when he was
secretary OF the interior under Mr..
Buchanan Not only did lac betray
government secrets 10 the secessionists
while he was sworn officer of this
natioa. bnt hc-lcft his department I'M

Moreover iie is a man for whose arrest
a reward was offered for supposed

ory Secretary Lamar has seen fit to
honor by placing the stars and stripes

WHEN 1T IS TOO LATE

Last Sunday the Wichita EAGLE ap-
peared With long article headed,
'sRead Out of the Party" which con-
taims much that is true. If all the Re-
publicans of Kansas who do not favor
prohibition, or the present drug store
dodge, are TO be driven out of the
told, the grand old organization
will be left in bad shape in
this state. 1t is deplorable
fact that a local issue has thus
arisen TO divide the party, but
nevertheless it has, and the only sensi-
BILE and safe course is to allow as broad
and liberal views within the party on
this question as is possible. The Dem
ocratic party is unquestionably the
party of free and unlimited whisky,
while the Republican party has been
the means of bringing about all the
reforms that have ever been effected
in that traffic. And when any policy
is forced upon that party which will
result in its defeat, be it in the
abstract ever SO good, it is ultimately
injuring the very cause II is intended
to promote. The Republican party
cannot succeed in this state without
The support of the liberal element,
and if those who are now persisting in
the folly of reading this element out
of the party, so continue, they will see
the fruits of their folly when il is too
iate.---Sarafoga Sun.
