The old system, or alleged system of street
Identification comprised a wooden sign with
the name of the street painted thereon. The
sign might be up on tree or corner house,
or on lamp post. There was no certainty
of finding it, and consequently personal in
terview with resident of the neighborhood
was necessary before the fact was fully
established. This interview at night was
sometimes dangerous, and many times re-
fused. 1t was trying on the door bells of
corner houses, and trying on the occupants
of such dwellings,.
St. Paul streets are trif1e irregular. In
fact, it would be hard to find city that
eclipses it in that particular. On this account
il is sometimes confusing to new arrivals and
old residents, returning home after a, wine
supper.
They will start home on Fourth street. and
presently they cross over Seventh street, and
find themselves walking along Third street.
Such confusion requires a street lamp at
every corner with the names of the streets
plainly marked on the same. Too many of
them cannot be constructed and located.

Special to the Globe.
MILTON, w. Va. May 10.-A cowardly
attempt was made last night to assassiDate
Albion Gates by some unknown villains.
He was awakened by large stone being
hurled through a window of the room he
was sleeping in. Going to the door, he
was caught by two men who en-
deavored to make way with him. A
blow aimed at him with a knife
fortunately missed, and the blade was
deeply embedded in the door post. Gates,
getting his revolver out drove the ruf1ians
off. They are supposed to be friends of
Leffner, the fend who outraged America,
the eleven-year-old daughter of Gates, a
short time since. She will be wanted in a
few days to testify before the court and in
addition to killing her father the scheme
was doubtless to kidnap her. In case she
should disappear it is certain that Judge
Lynch would make short work of Leffner,
who is in Jail.

settlers from Santa Fe and other points
in the northern portion Of this territory

the missions throughout New Mexico

they fell into the hands of their mer-

SAVING CORN FODDER.
Important Work Which Is Neglected by
Too Many Western Farmers.

Important Work Which Is Neglected by
Too Many Western Farmers.
The number of farmers who cut their
corn, husk it in the fields and leave the
stalks and fodder remain on the land
through the winter, are legion. We
have often wondered how farmers could
work so hard over a corn crop and then
take such little care of one of the best
portions of the crop after it has been
made. 1t is an unsghtly view to hook
over field in winter where hundreds
OF stacks, or shocks, of fodder are top
ping over, spread out or decaying, los
ing IS value, and comforting no service.
Some farmers turn in the cattle upon
the corn fodder, supposing they thus
save fodder and labor, but the cattle
simply pull down that which may be
standing, and ruin it with their feet.
Others carry it to the barnyard, throw
ing it in piles over the fence, where it is
picked over and the greater portion
trampled under foot. These practices
do not pay for the labor of shocking
the fodder The farmers waste. not
only their labor, but the material also.
Corn fodder should be housed or placed
under some kind of shelter. Ii should
never be left in the fields. If it is worth
any thing it is worth saving properly.
1t should be cut just as the leaves show
the first tinge of yellow, and the corn
should be husked off as soon as it is dry
enough. The fodder should then be
taken ont of the fields and brought to
some convenient place for feeding. II
1t has been passed through a cutter. as
has been frequently suggested by us, so
much the better, but if it is TO be fed in
bulk lc. t be done in racks, and keep il
as bright and clean as possible. so the
stock W Il relish it the better. ANY kind
OF mater al, whether hay or fodder. will
lose quail ty if exposed 20 all the ele-
mentS Of winter in the felds.-FarVs
