FRUIT TREES.

In regard to the care of an orchard
W. A. London says in the Rural
Messenger:
81 find that lime, wood ashes, and
old iron put around the roots of de-
clining trees, have a very beneficial
effect. These fertilizers restore the
trees to a healthy condition, and also
greatly improve the fruit i'll quantity.
! made the application early last
spring as an experiment on a Wine
sap and Never Fail about half a
bushel mixed lime and ashes to EACH
and dug it in with a hoe some feet
around the trunk, and put the old
iron Immediately around the base of
each.
The trees put forth with renewed
vigor, doomed abundantly, and yield
ed good crop of fruit. A excellent
wash for trees may be made thus :;
Heat an ounce OF salsoda to redness
in an iron pot, and dissolve it in one
gallon of water. and while warm ap-
ply it on the trunk. After one ap.
pication the moss and old bark will
drop of, and the trunk will be quite
smooth. This wash has quite recuper-
ative properties, making old trees
bear anew.

with good results, and also n coating
of lime iii the spring season, which is
a fine specific tor old trees. The
question is often asked if it is best to

good time have great faith in
mulchlng, especially young trees,
tor several reasons. after they are
planted Apple trees are said to
have two growths during The season
the secondary growth takes place
after midsummer, hence it is that
top dressing OF manure, and also
coarse litter facilitates the late
growth and often produces very mark
ed results in the habit and formation
Of the tree.
The good effect that mulehing has
TO young trees is that it wards OH the
intense heat Of the sun from the ten
der roots, and also has a tendency to
hold moisture. \ good top-dressing
of stable manure in the tall around
young trees, with a good many corn
cobs cast over the surface of the soil,
gives satisfactory results.

Criminals and Their Homes.

Every once in while people read in
the papers how some man who had lust
done a job has skipped, leaving no trace
behind him." said a central Office de-
tective to a New York Herald reporter.
The first thing they do is &c blame rhe
detectives. Then, Year or two perhaps
afterward, they hear that the man has
been caught. Then they praise the de-
tectives for skill and perseverance as
much as they blamed them before. They
were wrong to blame the detectives in
the first place, and Tn not sure that
they were right in praising them SO
highly afterward. In ordinary circum-
stances any criminal is sure to be
caught.
.'You say there are many crimes never
unraveled. That's so. But in most of
them the police get to know who did the
job as well as they know who stole
Broadway, but they can't get the evil
dence, and so they lie low and wait In
a few exceptional cases it's best not to
punish anybody.
IF man runs away the police can
pinch him nine times out of ten just by
watching his home Shakespeare never
said truer thing than when he said:
There's no place like home 1t was
Shakespeare, wasn't it? Well, every man,
no matter how bad he is. has home of
some kind that he's going to visit, al
though he knows that the visit NAV land
him in state prison for twenty years.
and as soon as he thinks the coast is
clear he's going TO that home. All the
police have to do is to find out that
home, watch it, and nab their man
when he shows up.
There's that man who shot the negro
janitor. He got west and was doing
well, and nobody knew where he was.
But he had to come back to New York
to see his friends. There's Jimmy Riley.
He broke seven of the strongest jails in
the country-Sing Sing was the last of
them. What did he do when he got out
of Sing Sing? He went straight to 10th
avenue, where everybody knew him.
Now he's back at Sing Sing. Talk to
Capt. Washburn about Hel's Kitchen
and places at the foot of West seth and
10th streets in his precinct. He'll tell
you that whenever he wants one of the
crooks who hang out there he has only
to 60 there to get him. They never try
to hide in any other part of the city.
Do you remember that burglar who
killed policeman way back in the
sixties, when he was caught breaking
into an arms store in Broadway? Well,
he thought it safe to come back to New
York after nearly twenty years, and the
first thing he knew he was on trial for
his life. He would have come back
sooner, too, if he hadn't been prevented
by being locked up in different prisons
out west.
Another thing that helps the de-
tectives in catching big crooks is their
inter-marriages. 1t is a saying that
every Hebrew in Baxter street belongs
to one of three families. It's about the
same with crooks. About every big one
among them is connected by marriage
or blood ties with the Others

Stokes, after short stay in New York,
went to San Francisco. With him he
took several head of head of thorough

On certain of these drives he was pull

that Stokes was driving, and the next
day be sent friend to see if he could
purchase it. Stokes refused to part with
his pet, and the information was convey
ed to Mackay, who seemed much disap-
pointed. The next day Ma ,kay sent
again to Stokes with an offer of $40, 900
for the mare. This was also declined
Ten days after messenger called at the

security that an envelope does, it is ex-
pected to take the place of the postal
card to a very great extent.

comprehensive uses checks the formidable and
atrocious disease, is it less positively estab-

This alleged dynamiter was tracked
through about thirty miles of mountain

The sluggish, but persistent beast hung
on the vanishing track through storm

This was very heroic. But mark the
sequel. One afternoon, when the chase
had tagged, the parsuers of the re-
doubtable Jackson saw, silhouetted
against the summit of an inaccessible
mountain-peak, a naughty man with a

The Gridley Gal Herald relates that
a woman put her baby, aged 6 months,
in a market basket and set the latter on
the porch in the sunshine. Not long
after she discovered that the basket and
baby were gone. The neighbors were
reused, and an active search made for
the missing infant. At last, her mother
had almost despaired of ever again see
lug cher joy" the infant was peacefully
sleeping in her basket by the side of a
woodp pile near flour mill. Lying beside
and carefully guarding the basket and
it's contents was a huge Newfoundland
dog belonging to one of the family's
neighbors, and with which "baby" is in
the habit of rompiug. In as much as
the dog, at command, picked up the baa
ket with his mouth and promptly carried
his burden home again, it is thought
that the sagacious brute was resp onsibla

landed at Castle Garden in 1882 when he
was 10 years old, and went West work

was ruinel and consumption had set in.
He had saved from his earning $3.50,
and started from Bristol, Wis, three
days ago to return to his old mother, a
widow, and to 60 to his home where he
was born and where he wanted to die.

five to six dollars for currcrt expenses

man who told HIM lac was taking passage

They went to some saloon, where the
stranger told Brik he would do better
and realize great profit in having the
Austrian horins changed to English SOW
ereigns. The boy told him it was too
late, but his new friend said he knew a
change office near by where it would not
take more than fifteen minutes In the
mean time he gave Birk the advice to go
on board and look after his baggage.
Brik gave the stranger his money to have
it changed. The boy waited, and when
