THE Mexicans have had a battle with the Apaches in Sonora, and from what we can learn have been severely handled, losing several killed, and about thirty head of horses. General Geronimo held his ground, and beat of the at tacking party in good shape. The Mexicans claim to have been near enough to hear the jeers and shouts of derislon-which were by no means complimentary-of the Apaches, who seem to have been we'll posted on a rocky eminence. and with arms and ammunition in plenty.

Secession in Canada.

The legislature of the province of Nova Scotia after long pre- amble setting forth the various unsuccessful steps that have been taken during the last fifteen years to secure a modification of the financial terms of union with Canada, adopted a resolution ad- verse to the continuance of the
 union.
 This resolution was carried by a vote of 15 to 6. Nova Scotia was
 forced into union with Canada against the will of the people, and the irritation created then has been intensified and increased by the high taxation which the Fed eral Government has imposed. The people are thoroughly disgus- ted, and will leave no constitutional means untried that will release them from a connection that they never wanted, and which has been financially and commercially dis astrous to them. The general election in the province, which will be held in about eight weeks, will be conducted almost exclusively on this issue, the Government of the day having staked its existence upon the question.
 The young but vigorous domin- ion to our north, threatened with disintegration by the maratime provinces Tn the east, with seces- sion rampant in Manitoba and the northwest territories and the French in Quebec eternally dissatisfied, has trouble sufficient. The problem which Canadian statesmen have to solve is a diff fcult one. With independents, secessionists and annexationists, with a huge debt, and a clashing of populations and interests, it will be no easy task for the govern ment of Canada to satisfy the diverse desires of its people, and weld into one homogeneous whole the provinces of British North America, backed though it be, by the brain and wealth of Ontario.
 Should the maritime provinces succeed in freeing themselves from the Canadian confederation, they would naturally gravitate toward the United States. Peopled by a kindred race and with interests in common, they would not be an undesirable acquisition, and would round out our eastern frontier to advantage.
 But the Canadians are vigorous and progressive race. We look to | see them solve successfully the | problems, in state craft now before them, and such others as the future may present, pay of their large debt promptly, and enjoy a semi national era of prosperity and i'm provement until such time, as the people of the dominion may elect to become thriving portion of the American Union.

plenty.

THE murder of Crawford has been adjudged an accident by the Mexicans in authority, and as such will be passed by and remain un- noticed and unavenged by our gov. ernment. The present admins tration seems to be following Tn the footsteps of the preceding ones, and a vigorous foreign poli- cy will Tot be one of its creation. If our government would but dis play the energy and courage which has marked British policy, prior to the present course of Gladstone and the peace at any price party, such occurrences as the murder of Crawford would not again happen.
 From the best of testimony it cannot be disputed that the killing was intentional and in this instance altogether unprovoked. We do not doubt but what the Mexicans have just cause for complaint against the Indian scouts employ ed by Crook, if the truth could but be known, but that in no way justifies them in firing upon and killing American soldiers. It is high time that Mexico, Chili and half dozen other little petty states should be shown the power of the United States and be made to re- spect it.

Guard che Line.

The eastern line of the reserva ton is practically unguarded. The Apaches take advantage of this fact, in their annual outbreaks, and make their departure from some point along this line. In their earlier raids they crossed Eagle Creek, passed near Morenci, struck the Gila and then took a southerly course for Old Mexico. In the last outbreak they avoided this course,-the country along the route being now more thickly settled-crossed Eagle Creek high CT up near Hampson's Ranch, and then following an old Indian 1 raiding the Blue and thsI San Francisco as they X

Water Closet on the Farm.

This most important institution on every
farm Is either totally neglected to the dis
comfort, and injurious to the health Of the
family, or it Is an intolerable nuisance, dis
graceful to civilization. 1t is not q very
pleasant subject TO be discussed before our
readers, but there is so much inconvenience.
suffering, sickness and even deaths caused
by the neglect Of having such a convenience,
that we approach it boldly. The old.
fashioned practice Of digging a vault five or
six feet deep, and building u closet over it,
in a way that is almost impossible to clean
out the vault, but which is generally left to
fill up with the weddings and the drainage
and seepings from it s~aturate the soil for 9
long distance, frequently reaching the well,
and rendering the water poisonous, engen-
dering typhoid fevers and other epidemits,
which scientific researches have frequently
traced to these causes.
The best way, probably, on a farm, is to
build a water closet as near to the house and
as much out of sight as possible, but so the
rear part of it can be reached by a team of
horses. Build the closet up high enough
from the ground to admit a box two by five
feet, and two feet deep, set on narrow rum
ners, made Of two by four scantling, tnpered
up in front and fixed so that when filled a
horse can be hitched to it and haul it out to
the field or to the compost heap and emptied.
There should always be kept in the water
closet a barrel or box of road dust with
which to sprinkle the weddings whenever
they are likely to become offensive in smell.
By strictly attending to this %precaution the
vault can be kept from being offensive, even
if the vault is at the end Of the back porch.
Besides, when mixed with dust, the con.
tents of the box will not be disagreeable to
the person hauling it out, nor will it pollute
the atmosphere in the field. This plan is not
as expensive as the old-fashloned pit, the
cleaning of which is usua ly such a disagree
able task that it is never attended to. Be
sides, when the old vault plan is used, it is
generally put so far from the house that
weak Or delicate persons frequently avoid
using it greatly to the injury of their health
and the shortening of their lives.
This is no small matter, but one of the first
importance to the welfare and comfort of
the family, and no good man should neglect
his duty and his pleasure in changing his
present disgusting and disease breeding
nuisance for an arrangement which is health
full and not offensive. Iowa Register.

"DOing" the Farmer.

Innocent old farmers are being victimized
daily by a suave swindler in clerical garb.
This stealer of angels livery enters a farm
house in quest of a meal, announcing himself
as an agent of the New York Bible society,
and presents a family with a revised edition.
After dinner he inquiries what he has to
pay, and is generally informed that there is
no charge; but he insists on leaving 25 cents,
as it is a rule of the society that its agents
shall pay their way. He merely requires a
voucher, as a matter Of form, which he can
show to the treasurer Of the society. The
good old farmer signs the printed voucher
and the agent departs.
In ninety days the good old farmer re-
ceives a note from the county bank, asking
him to step up and settle a note for $146. 25
signed by him, which the bank has dis
counted in COOL faith. Then the aged
farmer tears his hair, and wonders if he can
get even by starving the city summer board.

white Goods for Mourning.

The practice Of wearing white goods for
home dresses and informal occasions, even in
the deepest mourning, has become so general
that these goods are. furnished in response to
a really imperative demand. They comprise
an assortment that covers every need in their
line, and are certain to meet with an enthusi-
astic reception from ladies Of taste. Espe-
cially is the goods called Victoria to be com
mended for its beauty, tlneneSs and strength,
for unlike most Of the finer wool fabrics, it is
so strong that it is almost impossible to pull
a small sample OF it apart. 1t will be very
much used for cool day dresses and elegant
morning wear.
A handsome morning dress Of Victoria is
being made for q lady in mourning. The
entire front and half a yard deep around the
bottom is embroidered in fine white Saxony
wool, in the light etching patterns now so
popular, and the collar, cuffs and belt are to
be finished to match. A shawl of the same
goods will be a square Of the material, with
a border of embroidery and a fringe of
knotted silk and wool. The embroidered
stripe in the shawl is done in the etching
stitch, like the robe.
A dress Of this material, for a well-grown
miss, has a plain basque, laced in the back,
q full, killed skirt, and an ample sash drap-
cry Of dead white silk. Another dress of
the same goods, for a young lady, will be
made up with very pale lavender facings to
all Of the draperies, and a short mantle Of the
white goods with lavender lining. All
mourning goods must be Of dead white,
without a shade Of cream.
Snowflake and gypsy cloths have silk
warps, the former with an armure effect in
The weaving, the latter more like very fine
basket cloth. Clairette is a plain surfaced,
six warp goods which hangs in rolling folds
with a slight mohair effect, and is very fine
and has a good deal Of luster. New Car
melite and Benedictine cloths are akin to
nuns yelling, but are finer and smoother in
some samples, and in others crinkled in the
crapy fashion that is just now so popular.
