DRIED UP.-The river Thames once
dried up. 1t occurred March 6, 1922. 1t
appears that on that day gale of ex-
IRENE violence blew on the river. Com
ing from the southwest its effect was
that the entrance of the tide was inter-
rupted for several hours. The time of
the flood should have been about one
O'Clock, but at 10 o'clock in the morning
the tide was still ebbing with great rap
idity at London Bridge. In consequence
of this the water sank so in the river that
it was rendered fordable at several places.
Many persons, indeed, were seen walking
across, and as the bed was exposed in
large tracts, valuable articles which had
lain there great length of time were
picked up. This was the case as far out
as Gravesend. The water had not been
known to be so low by several feet for
years. Ships were seen aground in all
parts of the river below London Bridge.
About y O'Clock the tide began to return,
and with rapidity proportioned to the
check had experienced, the wind having
acted as a temporary dam to its progress.
Such was the force of the current that
barges and small craft in great numbers
were dashed against each other and sunk
or otherwise much injured. The time of
high water did not take place till after 8
O'Clock.

AN ANARCHIST BoMB.-Two little boys
by the name of Herman Jacobs and Ed.
kroncke, while playing in yankee
alley, Chicago, last Thursday, found a
round tin box about two inches in diam
eter and shaped like backing box. It
was tightly closed and something ratified
inside like money. The boys took it into
the back yard where young Jacobs lived =.
He put the box on chopping block and
struck it with an axe. An explosion oc-
CURED, which was heard blocks away.
The boys were badly injured. and the
whole neighborhood aroused. Kroncke's
mother rushed to the spot and carried her
son home. A piece of the bomb entered
his arm and horribly mangled the limb.
The elder boy, Herman, was bending
over the can as he struck it with the axe.
One piece of the metallic substance in
the bomb struck his face above the chin,
and passing through his mouth went out
through his cheek, leaving two large
holes. Two other pieces struck his left
arm. making very ugly wounds. The ex-
plosion was of so fearful a nature as to
leave no doubt of the deadly character
of the object thus thrown into the alley.
1t was evidently filled with dynamite and
is supposed to have been thrown in the
Alley by Anarchists.

Coon FOR. GRAPES. -While pro
.fessional grape growers are searching
for remedy for grape rot, or some
means of preventing it, Matthew
Crawford says there is one fact that
the amateur SHOULD never lose sight
of. There can be no rot where the
fruit is.protected from dew and rain.
Where vines are trained on building
under cornice the fruit never rots.
A. wide board nailed over the trellis,
so far as it protects the fruit from
dew and rain, prevents the rot. The
liability 10 rot is diminished in pro-
portion as the Vine is trained high.
There rs always less rot at the top
than at the. bottom of the trellis.
When wipes are allowed to grow over
the branches of trees, with little or no
care, there is but little rot, and the
vines are remarkably healthy and pro-
,dpctive,

BRAINS IN ADvERTIsING.- IF brains
are required by any person, they are
required by the advertiser. If any
one thinks he can write notice for a
paper and sit down and wait for re-
suits, without doing anything more,
he is mistaken. Advertising must be
iudiciously done; the advertisement
must be put where the people will
read it. If it is placed where it can
be seen and where it will be read, and
if it pertains to anything that the
public wants, it is self-evident that
the advertisement will pay. Any one
who has ever advertised somewhat
extensively, or who has paid attention
to advertising generally, can under
stand how much more judicious adver-
Using, or rather how much further
little money, we'll invested in adver-
Using in the best newspaper in the
place, will 60, than a large expendi-
ture scattered broadcast. All sorts
of schemes and plans, circulars and
designs for advertising are constantly
being presented to business men,
hardly any of them with any merit,
and, strange to say, men with good
business facilities will enter into such
schemes, throwing away their money,
when they decline to do anything with
the best newspapers. A new genera
ton has grown up and its ranks are
being increased every day, of men who
believe in advertising, They are those
who have proved to their satisfaction
that it pays to advertise.-Albany

$4,000 THE SEASON OF 1886.
-
TERMS-Cash at time Of service or approved
note. Mares not proving IN foal can be re-
turned free of charge next season.

This elegantiy-bred stallion was purchased
when yearling by the late Mr.. Benz. Il. Bates
for $1,000, expressly to take the place of his re-
nowned sire on the Bates Farm. AS will be seen
by the following statement OF pedigree, he is full
of Ethan Allen and Abdallah blood, his sire,
Daniel Lambert, being the best son of old Ethan
Allen, out of Fanny Cook, by Abdallah, (sire OF
daughter of Ethan, out of the DR.. Dixon mare,
also by Abdallah. It's therefore not TO be wonder
ed ut that he looks and acts more like Daniel
Lambert than any other one of his offsprings.
His color is nice chestnut, he stands Is hands
and weighs 1000 lbs, with the most beautiful
style, action and disposition imaginable. His
record of228 ga was made Nov. l, 1888, after q
brief preparation and an unfavorable day. He
in "a seconds.
The superiority of the Lambert stock Is too
We'll known to require elaborate explanation.
Daniel Lambert is the first of living sres, judged
by the true test, the 2.30 list, and his sons are
showing remarkable prepotency. Golden as q
fame.
