The melon ground had been prepared VIVID
compost in hill. The seed he planted in three
lots-the first one the last week in April, tne
next a week later and the third a week after
the second. The melons were the Kolb gem

Alexander raised 1,400 watermelons. he
was convenient to market for his corn and
vegetables.
At the first blowing Of the melon vines he
dropped between every W hills TWO OF

Island alone over 20, 900 songsters have
been slaughtered. It's a wonder to me
that all the real women in Brooklyn don't

crow if l am not in STYLE"
About fifty girls in the Packer primary
department have signed the Audubon's
pledge and others have promised to do SO
if their mas are agreeable.
The professor has on hand over 500
pledges which read thus:
pledge No. i. | pledge myself not to
kill, wound or capture any wild bird not
used for food so long as l remain a member
of the Audubon Society, and [ promise to
discourage and prevent, SO far as l can, the
killing, wounding OR capture OF birds by
others.
"Pledge No. 8. I pledge myself not to
make use OF the feathers OF any wild bird
as ornaments OF dress or household furnl-
ture, and by every means in my power to
discourage the use OF feathere for decora
tive purposes"
As soon as the permission of DR.. Bakus,
the president of the Institute, had been OBJ
tanned, the pledges were circulated. The
co-workers with Professor Stevens are Miss
s. X. Cook, OF the collegiate; Miss A. NJ.
Jones of the preparatory, and Miss u. A.
Massa, of the primary. Each Of these
ladies has a pocketful OF pledges. and are
asking signatures from scholars in the
classes and friends outside.
The opposing element in Academy is the
elder scholars, or seniors. They are in
clined to look upon the Audubon Society's
raid as foolish to use the mildest term.
"Just to think" said a stately young
lady With diamond earrings. they want
winter when bird plummage is all the rage.
It's we'll enough for the primary girls to
sign such q pledge, but for my part will
have az many birds on my bonnet as the
fashion allows"
Il don't see why we shouldn't kill the
birds and make ornaments OF their bodies
as to allow them to die in the forests"
said another senior. ''After awhile some
society will start up to protest against the
killing of chickens and turkeys for citing.
I'm not going to sign the pledge, because
ma has Just bought me a splendid bonnet
with a goldfinch in 'front.'"
The son of President Backus is in bad
odor with the primary girls becauseh he will
not sign the pledge to restrain his propens-
ity to despol birds nests. The milliners
on Fulton street are thinking of starting a
counter agitation. To inaugurate this an
ii bird movement after they nave laid in
their Winter stock of pretty feathers and
trimmed bonnets means loss OF trade to
them and they don't want to seeit succeed.

The Investigation of the Blu
y reau Begun.
THE CROP REPORT FOR MARCH.
Explosion - Spinncrs' Strike - The
Greeks-Telegraph Dividend
The Railroad Strike.
The Pension Bureau

WASHINGTON, March 10.-The Senate
committee on expenditures of public
money began an investigation of the
charge brought by Commissioner Black
in his report that the Office under his
predecessor was avowedly political
machine, and of the manner in which
the Pension Office had been conducted
and administered by the present COM
missioner. General Black was present
and requested that he be permitted TO
give the committee the names of wit
nes.es whom he desired to have ex-
aminod before he made his own state
ment. Sen itor Kenna embodied the
request in motion.
Senator Harrison argued that iras-
much as General Black had made a
statement in his annual report upon
which the investigation was based. the
usual and customary course of pro-
cedure would lead first to the examina-
ton Jf the commissioner himself After
some debate Kenna's motion was lost.
Gen. Black, in reply to inquiries by SEN
ator Harrison described the organization
OF the Pension Office, and especially
the functions of the board of review.
and as to the usual course of a claim
through the office, from the hands OF
examiner to the board of review and
thereto to the commissioners.
Mr.. Harrison Now, Mr.. Commi =
sloner, if you have any instance in
which an applicant was granted or re-
jected by the board of review or COM
missioner on account of the politics of
the person applying, will you please
give the names and numbers of these
cases?
Answer shall be pleased to furnish
the information from the files of the
office.
QUESTIONABLE you able to give to the
committee the name or number of any
case?
Answer-I think 1 shall be able 70
furnish you such case.
QUESTIONABLE you able to do it now
Answer have no memoranda with
me now.
Mr.. Beck-You will furnish them?
Answer Will furnish such cases.
In reply to further inquiries by Har-
rison the commissioner proposed to fur
nish, at another session of the commit
tee, the number of employees in the
office on the day he took control, to-
sether with detailed information as to |
The duties of those whom he had ap-
pointed and their politics, and how
many had been appointed under the |
'lvll service rules. In general way he |
could say that he had made from 155 to |
20 appointments, of which number 142 |
we're Democrats.

The Crop Report

WASHINGTON, March 10.-The March
report of the DEPARTMENT. OF Agriculture
on the consumption and distribution of
grain crops makes the proportion Of
corn still in the hands of farmers 40 per
cent. of the last crop. One year ago
the proportion of the crop on hand was
37.6 per cent. The proportion is the
lowest in the west, where heavy winter
feeding is required, averaging SO per
cent. in twelve States and As per cent.
in the south. The proportion mer-
charitable is S3.6 per cent, which is
slightly above the average OF a series
of years. The stock of wheat in the hands
of farmers is 30.1 per cent. of the crop.
1t was 1873 one year ago and 28.4
two years ago. 1t amounts to 10Y ,O00, eco
bushels, against 169, 100000 last March.
and lis, 100000 two years ago. 1t is
only 5000, 900 more than IN March, 1882,
the shortest invisible supply in recent
years. The visible and invisible sup
ply on March 1 was, therefore, 159, O00,-
900 bushels against 212,000 600 last
March. The proportion of the crop es-
timated for consumption within the
country where grown, is Ais per cent.

severe. No stock cars can cross the

materially lessened as the strike pro-
ceeds. General Superintendent Kerri-

Markell left her berth at 1T" wharf at
6 30 this morning and started down the
harbor in search of vessels deserving

arrived off Long Island, an explosion
occurred on board. the noise of which
was plainly audible in this city. The
boat was completely blown to atoms,
and her crew of five men were instantly
killed. The bodies of the captain and
