wOnan's Journal.
The question whether \ woman is
person has Just come up in Minnesota,
ahis time in connection with cemeteries.
BY the statutes ''any number Of persons
not lees than seven" may form a ceme-
tsry association. A. a meeting lately
held in Kassou, Minn.. to form such an
association, . woman's name was pro-
posed q one Of the trustees. A doubt
was raised whether women were legally
persous and it was decided to exclude
women until the next annual meeting.
by which time legal advice could be OBJ
Sained. Mrs. II. n. White, enc Of the
excluded, wrote to the attorney general
at 8. Paul, asking his legal opinion as to
whether she WAS . porsons The attor-
ney general promptly replied that she
~ss and that the opposition could have
no ground to stand upon, "unless those
who hold that women are not persons
should contend that they were angels
ani hence would never require burial" "

A third person of distinction to whom
va presented was Mr.. Roscoe Conk-
ling. Instead Of being impressed the
moment saw him with the recollection
OF his speeches in public life and his ca
reer q . statesman, / was foolish enough
10 notice the rare sapphires in his shirt

ing that his nose had its limits. Inward
" sent malediction on the caricatu-
rises who havs such power to give last
in1 impressions with their exaggerated
pencils through suoh widely circulated
mediums - the comic papers. l found
Nr. Conkling ~ tall and handsome az
his friends have represented him; but
his hair and vandyks beard are snow
white now. You can scarcely imagine
how the deliberate. dignified, eloquent
sentences fell on my ear amid tho rip
pies Of laughter around US and the many
glib tongues aH rafting on a. fast as
they could clatter, l contrasted the tim
kle OF many tea bells vehemently ring
inQ with the sounds Of a deep toned
church bell heard above them all. Every
deliberate sentence was we'll worth the
closest attention.

Of : caes which beats anything in the
shoessring line I ever heard Of. Last
June . Young clerk on La Sale street
got : tip on st. Paul. It was abont the
time Armour went into that stock, and
he way the clerk got it the stuff was
sure 10 60 mp steadily to the century
mark. He had 900 in bank. and he
drew il out and put it into st. Paul
through . bucket shop. He bought $50
shares, which gave him q q margin.
Hepoid q. Sure enough the quotations
began to creep up. and when they
reached TO- few weeks later he was
o250 ahead. He drew out his profits,
returned his 600 to the bank, 80 that he
couldn't lose anything, and Immediately
bought 1876 shares with his $3.50. 1t was
not long before the price touched 70,
whom he sold out again and again in
vested his profits. He repeated this at
IS, at 90, 1t s., at 90, and again at 95.
the quotations gradually creeping up to
that figure, and never once sagging back
enough to wipe out his margin. That
was early last November, about four
months from the time he started in with
800 capital. And how much money dc
you supposed he had then: Five thous'
and? Guess again. Seven? More, sir.
He had more than go. 200. and then he
got scared, drew out entirely. and In
vested his whole pile in real estate. And
1. was well he did,"

FRInAY EVENING. SEPTEMBER l..

TIE VALUE UE ASHES. Pro t. Il. c. Ked-
aic ftb~ Agricultural College Of Michigan
has issued bulletin giving The results of bis
analyst. of several kinds of ashe& made rih
ii view To determining their value "a fcr',-
izers. In discussing the subject aenriaity
nc says:
when we consider now large AZ; amount
of vegetable matter IS repre- seutcd by II snail
amount of ash, the value Of wOoG ashes FIR
manure becomes evident. Thu. only ten
pounds Of ash remain from ths combustion
OF a cord of hard wood. and on: five pounds
from cord Of soft wood Ouc hundred
pounds of ASH represent the mineral rnalt-r
Of eightyive bushels OF whea'. eight-tive
bushels of corn, or ton of timothy hay
Eleven tons OF gooseberries, grapes, black
berries, peaches or apples would each con.
tain only one hundred pounds Of ash. Scv
en- tons of cherries, plum9 CT raspherrics con-
tain only one hundred pounds Of niIern!
matter.
This gives some idea Of the large amount
Of farm or orchard prcducce which will be
represented by small weigh. Of miGeia;
matter. But small as is the amount of ash.
it is still indispensable for the production of
these crops, and must be present in the soil
in available form before profitable cuitv.-
ton is possible.
Let it not be supposed that the ush in all
these crops is identical in composition.
The ash Of each class Of plants has p cor,.
position peculiar to itself, and differing in
some respects from that of all other classes;
yet there is certain similarity in the ash
of all cultivated plants. When the ashes
of vegetable substances are served up for any
plant by mixing them with the soil, such
plant does not of necessity order every dish
on the bill Of fare, but selects such materials
and in such quantities as are adapted to its
wants, and leaves the balance for some fu
ture inca! or some other guest.
Ia making an estimate of the cash value
of ashes as fertilizer, potash is reckoned at
five cents a pound, insoluble phosphoric
acid at five cents, and the mixed carbonates
Of lime and magn 2sia at one-eighth Of & cent,
theae being tho wholesale prices, but the
cost Of these ingredients if bought at retail
in commercial manures is about one third
more. Upon this basis he finds hard wood
ashes, auch as are made in common stoves,
worth i dollar q hundred pounds, or $50 q
ton leached ashae about half as much, or
:1O.40a ton; soft w;,od ashes from pine, hem.
lcck, iiraud Eastwood, .$1G so; corn cob ashes,
$50; soft coal ashes forty cents, and hard coal
ashes sixteen cents q ton.
