If you want to puzzle people, soak fresh
egg for several days in strong vinegar. The
acid will eat the lime of the shell, so that
while the egg looks the same, it will be soft
and capable of compression. Select bot
tie with a neck, third smaller than the
egg. With little care you will have no
trouble in pressing the latter into the bot
tie. Fill the bottle half-full, of lime water.
and in a few days you will have hard
shelled egg in bottle with a neck third
smaller than the egg Of course you pour
off the lime-water as soon as the shell hard
ems How the egg gets into the bottle will
be conundrum few can answer.

Be gentle, patient and persevering in
training horses, but don't fail to be firm.
A horse with bad disposition and inclin-

out whether you are capable of handling him
or not.

Cattle have increased more than three
fold in the United States during the past

10 0,000,000 cattle Craze.

No better food can be found for horses

A London paper states that German

When peaches in Delaware don't pay to
ship to the cities they are turned over to
the evaporators or made up into wine. If
the latter, the produce is sold to city Gus
toners as "pale old sherry, and is pronounc-
ed superior to its adulterated and imported
namesake. Strawberries are treated in the
same way, and produce a beverage that is
said to take the place of apple jack.

One good team, if properly handled, will
do more work without injury than half a

Advance Of Property.

The best illustration that can he
given of the advance of property in
Dallas is the sale of the Apollo Hal
property, Oh Main street, few days
ago, compared with the sale of the
corner building west of the Apollo
Hall in the same block, which sold two
or three years ago for $4,000; the
Apollo Hall brought $4,000. These
two lots are about the same size, aud
the building on the west corner is a
two-story brick and the Apollo Hall is
only one story. In the situation of the
lots perhaps the latter has the prefer

The Case Of Cluverius.

RICHMOND, December &C. H. F.
Occurring, nm ex-policeman. who was ar
rested last night o. the charge Of brit-
ing Herman Joel. the watch.k witness
in the Cluverius case, was before the
Police Cnurt to-day, but his examination
was postponed until the 18th inst.
When considering petitions for Executive
clemency in the case Of Cluverius the
Governor sent for Joel and questioned
him in regard to the watch key. At tho
request Of the Governor, Joel described
the interior of the watch key, which he
had repaired for Cluvcrius, and after
ward opened it in the presence Of the
Governor. His description Tailed cx-
actly with the interior Of the watch key.
At the trial the Commonwealth asked
that the key BIO opened by Joel but
counsel for the defence objected. This
was perhaps the strongest point in the
evidence against the prisoner, and now
since it has come to light that the interior
Of the watch key wrs found to be as
described by Joel the evidence of the
prisoners guilt is aver more conclusive.
Chief Of Police Poe to-day received a
letter from Superintendent Murray, New
York, containing the following, which
no had received on December 8, 1886:
To superintendent Murray -Dear Sir
| am sorry that the authorities Of Rich
mond are making a great mistake about
Cluvcrius's case. He is the wrong man.
Sorry he could not prove an alibi. l had
an opinion he could. and now there is
nothing left for me but to surrender my
self as the murderer Of Lillian Madison.
I will surrender on tho morning Of
Cluverius's execution at your head
quarters. 1t is unnecessary to give you
further particulars, an my case will
show clearly about the murder at my
trial. I cannot wait any longer Of CON
science has troubled mo enough. I will
prove all when | surrender, and there is
nothing left for ME but to surrender, get
trial and probably hang.
LILLIAN MAD1soN's MURDERER"

the ~effusion ofa crank.

The Narrow 8usge Goes to Susops
& Co.

The meeting Of the stockholders of
the Atlantic, Grecnville Narrow Gauge
railroad. held at Ninety-Six on Wednes-
day, voted to accept the proposition Of
Susong & Co.
That proposition is, that $4,000 Of
stock, a controlling interest, shall be
issued Susong & Co., who assumes all
the liabilities Of the road and take all
its assets, giving second mortgage bonds
in exchange for the township bonds.
They give security in $4,000 to COM
pletc the grading from Hamburg to Pied
mont within one year, making the track
standard gauge. and promise to put on
the iron and rolling stock within two
years. They have declined to give
security for the latter clause on tho
ground that they will invest a large sum
Of money in the grading and payment Of
liabilities, which is security enough that
they will complete tho building and pu.
the road in operation SO that they may
realize on their capital as quickly as
possible.
AS for transferring tho road to some
other corporation or syndicate, thoy
argue with much force that their pos
session Of it makes no difference, as a
mortgage would be put on the road to
complete it anyhow. and the mortgage
bonds would be sold in open market and
could be purchased by anybody who
wanted to control the road. But they
say they have no intention of using the
road except as part Of a line to be built
from Knoxville, Tenn, to Augusta, by
acknowledgements Ne,Ds.
