The steamer Franconia of the Portland and New

commander, has followed the sea for. many years,
and enjoys the highest respect of all who know
him both as a skilful navigator and a man whose
integrity IS beyond question. He makes the fol

Fire on Central Wharf.

At about half-past nine last evening II. j.
Butler, the fireman on the Grand, Trunk
shifting engine No. 10, discovered fire in the
wooden building on Central wharf, next be-
low the store of w. S. Dana. Engineer
Mitchell at once sounded an alarm on the
whistle of his locomotive and an alarm was
also rung upon one of the church bells. The
crew of the ferry boat Cornelia FL. and the
captain of a schooner lying at the wharf
discovered the fire at about the same time
The building was occupied by Foss & Deer
ing, wholesale grocers, in whose portion the
fire originated; j. S. Winsiow & Co., ship
Keown, rigger; Orlando Nickerson, ship
broker, and the Central Wharf Towboat
Company
When discovered the fire had evidently
been under way for some time, and thelin-
terror of Foss & behring's store was burn
ing fercely. The department responded to
the alarm with commendable promptness,
considering the fact that the alarm system
could not be used and the almost impossible
condition of the streets. All five steamers
were brought into service and number of
streams were soon playing upon the burning
building. The fire boat was promptly on the
spot. The men at first worked from the
LADDERS andsit looked as if, aided by the
slaCe roof, they would keep the flames inside
Inc building and contine the fire to the store
Oh ross d Deering. The flames, however,
worked INTO the upper stories, and burst
through the walls and roof, the whole upper
END OF the building and the upper stories in
the lower end burning like furnace. The
firemen then exerted themselves to save the
stock of j. S. Winslow & Co., on the ground
floor in the lower end of the building, and in
this they were successful, the damage there
being by water only. The other portions of

ORANGE tints are useful in many
cases for interior decoration, as they
are warm and pleasant.
WOMEN stand to do many things
which could be done as we'll sitting

sugar, one-half pound of butter, three
eggs one cup Of yeast and one quart
of new milk. Let it rise over night.
Add raisins, cinnamon and allspice.
BEWARE OF PAINTED Toys.-PaiEtod
toys for children are dangerous things.
They are even more likely to injure the
baby than tobacco smoke or the pro-
miscuous kissing of all the old grand
mothers in the neighborhood.
Picked RIPE TOMATOEs.-TO one
gallon of firm ripe tomatoes, peeled, add
two tablespoonful of ground mustard,
one of black pepper, two of allspice, one
of salt, one of cloves; cover them with
vinegar, let them scald, but not boil,
three hours.
FRIED APPLEs.-Wipe few nice,
smooth.skinned apples, have ready
spider with a little butter and lard in
it, let it get hot and slice the apples
into it, sprinkle a little sugar over
them, and fry slow to nice brown,
taking care not to let it burn.
P1CKLED pEARs.-Pare and halve
the fruit: take seven pounds of fruit,
three pounds of sugar, one quart of
vinegar, one ounce of whole cloves,
one ounce of stick cinnamon; put all
together and boil slowly for short
time. This recipe is good for peaches
or plums.
REMEDY FOR CHILBLAINS.-The fol-
lowing is sure cure: Take handful
of dried peach leaves and pour boiling

It is a question with some good
wheat growers whether the manure
should be applied before the first plough
ing or afterward, but the prevailing
tendency is toward ploughing first,
then to draw and spread the manure
on the surface and aftcrward work it
into the soil in subsequent cultiya-
ton. The manure is thus kept nearer
the surface, where it is believed to do
the most good.
The idea that chickens belong to the
herring family seems to be generally
prevalent with shippers. Trampled,
bruised AMI suffering from thirst. most
OF the poultry that comes to market is
wholly unfit to use directly from the
coop. While it is not practicable to
send chickens to market in palace ears,
it is possible to ship them with some
regard to the comfort Of the fowls and
for the stomachs OF those who pay for
and who are to eat them.
The peach "curl" fungus grows
within the tissue of the peach leaf.
The fungus does not confine itself to
the leaves, but works in the young
stems, causing them to take on strange
shapes and unnatural colors, and to fin
ally withcr or turn brown, and at last to
die. This pest, though somewhat differ
cnt in its manner Of growth, is close
relative of the black knot, so destructive
to plum and cherry trees. The only
remedy for the "curl is the knife. All
the branches with their leaves which
are affected should be cut and burned.

All this took but few minutes, and
