A BROKEN HEART.
Sns heaI Reason Why James Buchanan
Remained Bachelor.

Sns Heal Reason Why James Buchanan
Remained a Bachelor.
Washington Cor n Y. Worldl
President Buchanan's love story is his.
torlc, ana reads more like the conventional
mover OF nifty years ago than plain fact.
but 1t happened just as tragedies happen
every day that are many times stranger
than fiction. When he was a Door Young
lawyer he became engaged to Miss Cole
man, who belonged to one of the richest,
staidest and, it may be assumed, narrow
est-minded and most purblind families in
Philadelphia. The Colemans by no means
approved of the match, but nevertheless
the young couple became engaged. Mr..
Buchanan was then practising law in
remote part of Pennsylvania, and in those
days of stage coaches and saddle bags cor
respondence was liable to Interruptions.
Miss Coleman's letters became irregular
and then stopped altogether. He wrote
repeatedly, but got no reply. At last he
determined to go to Philadelphia, but at
Lancaster the stage met with an acci-
dent and Mr.. Buch nan suffered a broken
leg. He wrote again as soon as he was
able, and still heard nothing. Laid up in
a
phenomenal snow-storm, for six weeks,
embittered him. and he wrote Miss Cole
man letter of fierce reproaches, and then
wrote no more. Now for Miss Coleman's
part. Her eminently respectable family
from the beginning intercepted all of her
letters and all of Mr. Buchanan's. She
made all the appeals to him a woman
could make, but she never had a line from
him after he left Philadelph:=, except that
last cutting letter-and as, unfortunatelv,it it
contained nothing but his ranunciation Of
her, she could know nothing of what had
preceded it. The 'eminently respectable
family were Satis6ed-the match was
broken off by means that would have
landed them all in the penitentiary in these
days. year or two afterward Mr..
Buchanan was in Philadelphia, and at a
ball came face to face with Miss Coleman.
Neither spoke, and Mr.. Buchanan paid
marked attention to another Girl
present. That night young friend
who was staying with Miss Coleman
SAID to her, while the two girls were
alone in their room: "Did you see Mr..
Buchanan's attentions to Miss -? Now.
they might have been yours had YOU
recognized him." Miss Coleman began to
sob violently. She would not be soothed,
and her friend, becoming alarmed, called
the family. OF what next happened two
accounts have been given: One was that
she had taken poison, and her sufTerings
afterward came from that-but those who
were near her said that she was simply
suffering from uncomfortable mental
anguish. Toward morning, when her
pulse had got so low that it was scarcely
perceptible, and her nervous excitement
had changed into a profound stupor, the
doctors were sent for. But she was past
help. They never reused her, and she
died the next day Of what the doctors
called nervous exhaustion, but which goes
by the name Of broken heart. Then the
truth came to Mr.. Buchanan's ears, and
from that day his bachelorhood was as
sured.

ARTIFICIAL FERTILIZERS.
An Epitome of the Fertilizing Question
Made by . Competent Authority.

An Epitome of the Fertilizing Question
Made by Competent Authority.
Prof. Caldwell, of Cornell University,
delivered an address before the Massa~
chusetts Horticultural Society, which
is summarized as follows:
l. That if enough Of the needed ele-
ments of food of the gardener or hor-
ticulturist's crops can not be obtained
in stable manure or other animal
waste, it can be procured in the trade
in unlimited quantity. and in every de-
gree Of availability depending on diff
ferent grades of solubility. and in the
greatest variety of mixtures, to suit any
whim or fancy of crop growers.
2. That profitable crop-orowing can
be carried on for at least many years
with these commercial fertilizers alone.
3. That the most evident distinction
between stable manure and commercial
fertilizers, and the distinction upon
which we should therefore base an cx-
planation of the greater reliability Of
the former, is its proportion of veget-
able matter, of which commercial fer
ciilHolo COlIldill ~ IdCllCdlly IlODe.
4. That soil contains in difficulty
soluble condition, and therefore not
easily fed upon by the crop, all the
needed elements of plant food
5. That humus, by the decay it suf-
fers in the soil, furnishes carbonic acid
and other solvent agents, and this car
bonic acid appears to play an impor-
tant part in the nourishment of crops,
by bringing this native insoluble stock
of plant food within their easy reach.
6. That even if we add water-soluble
plant food on the soil, it becomes
largely insoluble before the crop can
feed upon it; therefore soluble plant
food added to the soil in commercial
fertilizers also needs the help of the
humus finally for its solution.
andvegetable residues used in manures,
costs much less than in commercial
manure.
s. That in spite of the disadvantages
that under some conditi ons attend the
use of commercial fertilizers, they are,
nevertheless, very important and
necessary help in crop growing.
9. That in using these fertilizers the
wisest course appears to be to make
ones own mixtures of the raw material,
as well as securing better manure as
for economy in the first cost.
The foregoing is an epitome of the
fertilizer question, made by compe-
tent authority. In reproducing it, we
would emphasize the seventh point, and
would add, that in our opinion, there
must be either marked increase in the
price of agricultural products, or
marked decrease in the price asked for
commercial fertilizers, before the
farmer Of Ohio and westward can af-
ford to use them in ordinary crop pro-
duction. There is no doubt that an ar
tificial fertilizer may be made that
will produce as large crops as stable
manure, but at present prices the cost
Of such fertilizer is generally greater
than the value of the increased produce
resulting from its use.-Fa1m and Fire

SUM MER SILKS.
A Pretty Model of Stylish, Gray-Blue
Louisine Dress.

a Pretty MODEL OF a Stylish, Gray-Blu0
Louisine Dress.
The old-time summer silks are being
used again in stripes, checks, bars and
blocks, and these may be either the
smooth lustrous surfaces, the twilled
surahs or the basket-woven Louisines.
The entire dress may be of one mate
rial, but this is often improved by add
ing touches of contrasting color in
the vest, the revers, collar and cuffs,
while the skirt is prettily adorned by
sash, and, instead Of founces, one or
two rows of scallops of a contrasting
color are added at the foot. In such
dresses the effect of a full skirt is
given, founces are avoided, and above
the full skirt there is a very bouffant
drapery. A pretty model of such a
dress is of Louisine, gray-blue with
cross-bars of red about a fourth of an
inch apart, and all the accessories of
sash, scallops, revers, ETC., are of
plain red surah the shade of that in the
Louisine. Although this dress appears
to have full round skirt, it is never
theless made ON gored foundation
skirt of red silk, finished by silk foot
plaitings. This skirt is, however, con-
cealed by another of the Louisine, con-
sisting of four straight breadths, each
about twenty-five inches wide, gath
cred to the belt to throw great deal
of fulness in the back, and cut out in
scallops on the lower edge. These
scallops when finished are four
inches deep and very nearly two
inches wide. In the spaces between
the scallops appears another row OF
scallops of similar shape, made of red
surah, and these are supported by
the knife-plaitings on the foundation
skirt. A deep apron over-skirt covers
the front and sides, being caught up by
the sash ends far back on the left side,
and the back shows only the full gath
cred skirt just described. The drapery
extends up the right side high on the
hips, completing the apron, and drops
down in a point behind The short
basque has revers of red surah up each
side of white Grape plaston that is
placed across the front, plain at the
throat, and laid in three diagonal folds
on the chest. Such dresses are SINH
larly carried out in white China silk
with dull red velvet, in black surah
with olive green surah, and in black
and white striped silk with moir, either
white or black. Smooth silk in stripes
of two shades of gray-blue or of dull
red makes very effective dresses with
cream white surah, or else with surah
of the shade of one of the Stripes

Repairing Chairs. !

Y If you have. any old cane-bottomed
chairs which want re-caning, you may
make the seats useful with thick, col
ored wool twine. Cut away the old
cane first, and thread long, stout
darning-needle with the twine. Knot
the ends, loop it through the holes
backwards and forwards, crossways
from side to side, right and left, and,
every hole being filled, work them
back again, weaving as you would for
cloth, SO you must be careful not to
draw the threads very tight the first
time over, or it is more difficult to
weave. Finally. press the pair Of
threads to2ether.--Fagps osa1 FHsslas.

the other morning. He took charge Of one
room and kept every body about the depot
terrorized. When a Missouri Pacific pas

from the waiting where he had i'm
prisoned himself, and entered one Of the
coaches. The passengers fed panic
stricken from the cars. Riggle was armed
wi h a six-shooter. After a terrible
struggle, four men finally overpowered
him. The passengers were persuaded to
resume their places and after considerable
delay the train moved on.

interest was made in Aberdeen, Scot
land, not long since by number of Ia
borers excavating in Ross court, one of
the oldest parts Of the city. Three feet
under the surface the laborers came
upon large bronze urn filled to the
brim with silver money. The number
of coins was about fifteen thousand,
and they are in excellent preservation.
They are all English money of the
the reigns of Edward |. and Edward

have been part of the booty secured
