The shoot last Saturday was disap-
pointment as far as scores were con-
cerned. It was the worst shooting We
have yet had, the only redeeming feature
being Peter Books hundred yard score.
The day was almost perfect for shoot
ing, the weather fine and hardly breath
of air stirring. Alinost,all the contest
ants claimed to be- in good trim for
shooting and then would step up and
miss the target. There. is something
about shooting which cannot be ex-
planned and still it win make whole
team shoot poorly. We cannot imagine
whatit is, but below is seen the result.
It might be added that the target is the
regulation army one of an eig11t-inch
bulls eye at the three ranges.
Since the above was put in type, it was
found to be impossible to give the score
in full this issue. The next shoot will
decide the winner Of the gun, when the
complete scores will be published.

Frank Walker, who shot himself in tho
leg some time ago, died this morning
and will be buried at four O'clock this
afternoon. Blood poisoning was the
immediate cause Of his death. Walker
was not good patient, being very fret
full but was probably more or less out Of
his head all the time. Once, being alone
he got out of bed and hurt himself badly.

The Late Mrs. Vanderbilt.

The widow of Commodore Wander
bilt set out to be lady when she mar
ried the millionaire, writes New York
correspondent. She had already led a
polite and refined life, although pre-
vious wedlock had been brief and
unsatisfactory, but it is much harder
task when coupled with conspicuous
wealth in New York city. There was
the opportunity and temptation to be-
come chief figure in the snowy. circles
of our society, for she was young, hand
some and accomplished, and the un-
avoided notoriety of the marriage
afforded an impetus of frivolity. But
she chose quiet course, made hobbies
of benevolence-as in the founding of
the Vanderbilt University, which was
altogether her own project-and mixed
very charity in the doings of the newer
and friskier Vanderbilts. She lived to
her death in the big, luxurious but un-
acknowledgements house that had
been her husband home; and, although
friendly with the numerous Vanderbilts,
usually going to their entertainments,
she sedulously avoided any participa-
ton in the displays of riches which they
have made. There was never bit of
trouble over money matters. The set
Element on her of 100000, in con-
sideration of which she signed, before
marriage, an agreement to accept that
sum in lieu of dowry, forestalled all
controversy over his fortune. By his
will he gave her only the residence and
it's furniture.
There is no good reason to say Com
modore Vanderbilt was matrimonially
caught by Mrs. Crawford, the mother
of the bride, as was charged at the time
by some of the Vanderbilt family. The
bet-othal happened at Saratoga with
great suddenness, and the pair fastened
to Canada to be Joined quietly. The
mother was there, and she never after
ward left the household of her Cresus
son-in-law, but I have from close OBJ
server of the courtship and nuptials an
account which exculpates her from the
accusation of !entrapping the old man.
Bob Crawford, the brides brother, was
an employee of the Vanderbilt railroads,
having charge of a ticket office in
Broadway. In the summer of 1869 he
had considerable to do with the pleasure
traffic between this city and Saratoga.
He had the opportunity to give to his
mother and sister holiday in the great
resort. They lodged in comfort, but
no excess of style, at a boarding house,
but sought mild diversion in the big
hotels as the cottagers used to do, with
little of the hindrance which tha land
lords now contrive to place in their
way. One evening Crawford went to
the Grand Union to consult with the
commodore on business matter, The
ladies went along to pe left in the par
lor while he hunted up the millionaire,
but Vanderbilt was encountered while
they were all together, an introduction
followed, and within a month Frank
was the wife of the richest man in
America. According to this authority
there was no scheming at all. and
hardly a premonition of the marriage
offer

Stirring the Soil.

The farmer who understands his
business, says the Massachusetts,
Ploughman, will cultivate his crops as
often as the surface of the ground be-
comes hard, well knowing that the
moment the soil around the young
plants becomes crusted over it prevents
a free circulation of air, and very
materially checks the growth of the
most hardy plants, and often entirely
destroys those that are tender. We
have so many farm implements that
have been constructed with especial
reference to the ease with which they
will stir up aud pulverize the soil, that
there is really no excuse for permitting
the surface soil to get crusted over,
after the plants are large enough to be
seen. OF all of the months of the year
for stirring the soil, the month of June
is the most important. The farmer
who neglects to cultivate his crop
during this month may expect small
crop at harvest time. The old idea
that crop should not be hoed until
the weeds get large enough to shade
the crop, is not good one; never wait
for the weeds to grow before running
the cultivator over the ground, but as
soon as the crop is high enough to readily
see the rows, the cultivator should
be run between them, whether there
are any weeds in sight or not, for while
it is important to keep the weeds from
growing, it is also important to keep
the soil light and loose. The expense
of keeping the weeds down is much
less when cultivation is commenced as
soon as the crop is up. It will not cost
as much to keep piece of land clean
of weeds, if the work of cultivation be
commenced in season, as it will to begin
the work after the weeds get large, and
they are not more than half destroyed,
for when once the weeds get large it is
not only expensive to pull them up,
but unless they are carried off the field
most Of them will grow again after the
first rain. When weeds are not more
than an inch high, by running cult
vator over the ground, most OF the
weeds will be destroyed without any
further labor. When the first crop of
weeds is thoroughly destroyed the
second crop will give but little trouble.
if the soil is stirred as often as it should
be. The farmer should never be SO
busy in June as not to be able to cult
vate his crops as often as the surface OF
the ground becomes hard.
