THE TRIBUNE" SAYS:

Jacobs voice, Esau's hand" II
is called Secretary Msnning's report,
but 1t is not report aud the reater
part OF 1t docs not appear to be secre-
tsry Manning's, 1t Is not report,
but an editorial argument or speech
on the silver question and the tariff.
The bulk of the argument is not in
harmony with the most important
specific recommendation Of the Sscre-
rotary, nor with the conduct of the
Treasury Department for the pas. four
months. Ever since Mr.. Marble
offered to ring fire bell in night"
his peCuliariLies OF style have been
recognized by many of his fellow-citi-
zeps, who will have no hesitation in
giving him credit for the graces OF ex-
preston in this argument. The opin-
ions are those which Mr.. Marble has
constantly advo Gated; they are not
those which have recently determined
the action OF the department."

She said her husband was in q bed

etrated his heart. The shooting &C.
CURED at about 6 O'Clock according TO
the best reports, and the man was
evidently asleep in bed when the muir.
deress fred the. fatal shot.
There were no evidences OF
struggle. Every indication was that
the woman deliberately ehot the man
in his sleep. The discovery Of her
deed seemed 10 drive her into a
frenzy. The pistol che used had been
thrown under the bed. She managed
to regain possession of it and flourish
cd IL in the faces oil the officers and
scream,d she never would be arrested.
They felled her to the floor, and after
q severe struggle succeeded in getting
the revolver away from her. The only
remark she made on the way to the

used her right" He was some years
her junior and woodworker by trade
She said she was formerly an occupant

A WASHINGTON SPECIAL 10 THE WORLD
SAYS:

Mr.. Manning's proposition for retir-
ing the greenbacks and supplying their
place with silver and gold certificates
is not popular and will not be APP
proved. 1 nave. talked with number
Of Oongreesmens,npon the subjects OF
varying shades Of belief and they are
all against it. Mr.. Bland, OF Missouri,
who represents the extreme wing OF
the silver men, will oppose the retir-
ing OF the greenbasks. Mr.. Scott, OF
Eie, who is at the head OF class of
financial men, tho exact opposite Of
Mr.. Band, eaid that he was opposed
to Mr.. Manning's proposition. He
thought that the most dangerous step
taken by Congress- for some time was
the authorization last year OF the issu.
ing of the silver certificate OF small de-
nominations. The retirement of
greenbacks and the isluing of silver
certificates In their place would
simply hasten our getting on to
a silver basis and the elimina-
tion of gold as a standard
from the country. Mr.. Manning's
principal suggestion, however, relating
to the tariff reduction, fits in very we'll
with the Hewitt administration bill.
Mr.. ManninS's proposition to take the
tariff of raw materials and to have
free wool would suit Mr.. Hewitt very
we'll. The latter believes in free wool,
although that Is not in his bill. In
the main Mr.. Mannirg's suggestions
concerning the tariff will meet with
the approval of the msj ority in the
House. 1t is considered strange that
the President did not himse ( take a
more pronounced stand upon the sub |
ject and 60 beyond mere formal
phrases"

SECRETARY MANNING'S
REPORT COMMENTED UPON BY
THE PRESS
or New YOrk-The Difference Of
Opinion Among the Leading
Journals.

NEW YoRK, December THE FOL-
lowing are comments on Secretary
Manning's report:
THE HERALD SAYS
it is q remarkably clear and cogsnt
discussion OF the financial situation.
THE "TMEs" SAYS:
We fear that Mr.. Manning is throw
ing pearls before swine. There 10
nothing in the conduct of the present
majority in Congress to justify the
option that one-half will ever read
his elaborate and very able report,
most of which is OF the soundest, or
that one-half OF those who read it
would understand it, OF one-half OF
those who understand it would APP
prove 1t. We cannot too much ad.
mire the zeal and courage with which
the Secretary takes up again, after
year Of great physical suffering, the
firm and even ferVid advocacy of prin-
ciples that have attracted no support
and hardly attention from his party
in Congress. Mr.. Manning is gifted
p Politician. As we read his emphatic
and often brilliant statement of ideas,
as important as any Secretary since
Mr.. Chase has bad to present, we can
not help wondering what would have
been the effect II Mr.. Cleveland had
held different view OF the use OF pat
ronage, and II vote for suspension Of
silver coinage, payment OF the legal
tenders and free wool had been made
a condition precedent to the distribu-
ton Of Offices in each Congressional
district. 1t is better as 1t ig, but the
suggestion throws strong light on the
capacity OF the Democratic msj ority
to accept the advice without being
bribed to do 30.
The boldest and the w.ssst thing In
Mr.. Manning's report is the recon.
to use the surplus to pay
the legal tenders"

When ca, u.s.. nin u the pia'it
to six weeks, according to the size of the
pieces, it is ready to be taken to The
smoke-house.
In somking, the aim is to get smoke
without heat. This may be accomplish
ed by hanging the pieces high above the
fire, and keeping a close watch to pre-.
vent it from blazing up. Sometimes the
fire is made outside the smoke,house,
and the smoke conducted inside by q pipe
or flue.
For smoke, corn-cobs are preferred by
many. They should be clean cobs, and
not such as the animals leave or as may
be picked up in the barnyard. Hickory
is good; and the SAM may be said OF
walnut, sassafras, and maple. The pro-
cess should continue ten days to three
weeks, according as a greater or less
depth of color is preferred. But it should
be concluded in time to ret the meat put
away before the bugs make their appear
ance, which they never fail to do with
the warm days Of early spring. 1t is a
small insect, an eighth of an inch long
and not quite So wide, and dull black in
color. 1t lays the eggs which make the
small white worms, the shippers which
are so injurious.
A pretty good protection from the bug
is keeping the meat in a room from
which the light is excluded after smok-
ing. A much better protection is coat
ing Of finely ground black pepper, On the
flesh side and the exposed shank. The
pepper will adhere well if the meat is
previously dampened with a weak solu-
ton of molasses and water. The pepper
should be applied after smoking.
Covering in dry ashes is practised by
some; but though it saves from the bug
dirties the meat. Wrapping in paper
first obviates this; but mould is generally
troublesome in such cases, causing loss of
flavor, us well rs loss of substance by the
necessary removal of the injured out
side.
The pork-houses practise sacking ex-
tensively, sewing up tightly and white
washing, coloring the white wash with
yellow ochre. But this, though protect.
ing from the bug, is not proof against
mould. A better method of sacking is
making pretty large sacks Common
brown sheeting does welD so as to pack
several inches of hay between all parts Of
the ham or shoulder, and the muslin out
side. The muslin of itself is not suffi-
cient protection against the depositing of
the eggs, but the inside hay is; and there
being no reed of white wasbing, enough
air is admitted to prevent mould.
Dried beef with portions of fat mixed
with it is as liable t the attacks of the
shippers as bacon.
A cool place should be chosen in which
to hang up the meat; and care should be
taken to protect it from rats and mice, as
well as larger animals.

The great secret of getting along pleas.
antly, both in the family and in society,
is to remember that lit takes two to make
a quarrel"
The peach crop has been destroyed as
usual at this season of the year. 1t will
be destroyed in another way when the
crop is ripe, and begins to flood the
market-as usual.
With regard to the Celestia apple men.
toned in the list of Ohio apples last
week, Mr., Black writes us that when
grown in the North, or even no farther
north than 410, it will no doubt keep un.
til March or April.
Several of the finest flocks of sheep in
Michigan are reported to have been rec.
Gently devastated by the proverbial friend
of man. The canine fondness for NUT
ton, like the taste of Paddy's cow for
music, seems to be rather a Cruel one.
The Maryland Farmer is warmly in
favor of feeding cattle in yards and sheds
instead of pasturing them, at great ex-
pense for fencing and waste of food. The
cost of fences is, it says, usually more
than the value of the animals pastured,
and sometimes more than the land en-.
closed.
Mr.. w. H. Wiley, Chief Chemist Of
the National Department of Agriculture,
scceeded by the diffusion process in ex-
tracing more than ninety. nine per cent.
of the sugar in the cane, a gain of from
thirty to forty per cent. owe the best eff.
forts by the roller process now in use in
this country.
Italian vineyardists have discovered
that a thin lime-wash consisting of five
pounds of fresh lime Stacked with TWEEN
ty-four gallons of water, sprinkled abund-
antly on the vines from the middle of
May to the middle of August, the appli-
cation being made five or six times, will
e~ffectually prevent mildew.

Condition of German Farm Labor.

Our consul at Breslau, Germany, has
made some interesting statements in his
report to the department of State relative
to the condition of German farm labor
the persual of which might prove profit.
able to many of our young tillers of the
soil who are discontinued with their lot.
The laborer usually lives the year round
upon the estate where he is imployed.
He can indulge in few luxuries, receiv.
ing as he does, but $40 to S23.S0 in cash
for his years services. Besides this he
is allowed twenty-four bushels of rye,
three bushels peas and II bushels of
wheat, with free lodging and fuel; and it
is customary to grant his family the use
of 100 square rods of land for raising
vegetables. His wife is compelled to
work in the field. receiving from twelve
to fourteen cents a day in summer and
ten to twelve cents in winter.
The laborer gets but little meat, tea
and tobacco, though occasionally in
dulges in a pipe of manufactured leaf.
He is encouraged to work in harvest
