Overcome tho Efforts of the Enemies Of
the Church.
ROME, Oct. 25.-The Pope, addressing a
deputation Of pilgrims from Naples yes
terday, said the foes of the Papacy would
not hesitate to confirm by renewed insults,
even on solemnoccasion, the usurpation
and violence which are within tho
remembrance Of the whole world.
'Rome," he declared, lis predestined to
be the See of the Vicar of Christ and
shall ever remain the capital of the Catho-
tic world" The Archbishop of Naples re-
counted to His Holiness all that occurred
in Naples during the visit Of the Kaiser to
that city, whereupon the Pope said: Our
enemies are exerting their whole strength
to Cypress us. Let us redouble our efforts
Prompt and unwavering action is neces-
sary, for which rely upon the clergy"

A. B. Conkey, Axworthy's confidential
business manager, has just returned from
New York, where he went to investigate
the matter. His theory is that AxwOrthy
went to New York with securities on
which he hoped to realize in order
to settle with the city. Failing to get
the money he needed he went to Canada
rather than return to Cleveland aud face
his shortage like man. Mr.. Conkey de-
clares positively that Axworthy was not q

all Of Axworthy's correspondence, and he
knows that the latter lost no money on

FOR THE FAMILY FlREs,oE.

APr1s jelly win help to harden jelnes
that incline to be thin. It il often used
for stock, and favored with various ex.
tracts.
GLASS jars are better than tin cans,
They are always safe and San be used year
after year, while unless tin cans arc bright
and new, they spoil the flavor Of the fruit
and render it unfit for use.
WHEN replacing the stair carpet, do not
put it down exactly as it was before, but if
it will allow reverse it by putting the top at
the bottom, and vice versa. This keeps 1t
from wearing in spots, and will make it last
much longer.
ORGANS not regularly exercised become
incapable of performing their functions.
Horseback riding is the best exercise Girls,

furnishes nice side dish highly priced by
all lovers OF this vegetable.
FRIED TONAroEs.-Take cold tomatoes
that have been stewed, add more seasoning
If desired, one egg, and sufficient bread
crumbs to make into round cakes and fry
brown in drippings; or the unlocked canned
tomatoes may be seasoned and thickened
with bread-crumbs, and then dipped in egg
and bread-crumbs and fried
One of the first rules of the fruit season
should be, never put up more fruit than
will be good supply for the family until
fruit comes again. A dry, well-ventilated
cellar is the best place for all kinds OF
canned fruit, but jellies and jams should be
kept in store-room which is warm and
dry, away from the least danger of damp.
ScALLoPED OYsrERs.-Butter a pudding
dish, roll crackers very fine, put layer Of
crackers, then a layer Of oysters, season
with salt and pepper and put small bits Of

GRAINS FOR CHANGERS,

PRUDENT cultivatOrs will secure pot atoes
and other root crops early. If dug before
the fall rains, and kept dry, potatoes will be
much better for table use than otherwise.
UNIFORMITY can only be obtained by CO.
operation among dairy farmers, and by the
adaptation Of the same methods of man.
ufacture. What is required, then, is CO
operation and education.
The first point in making cheap pork is
to get the hog to market in the shortest
possible time. The same food makes more
pork in early fall than in midwinter, for
less of the food is used to produce animal
beat.
The farmer is more tempted to run in
dc BIT than almost any other man, because
Gc%lers are so willing to trust him; his farm
is u good basis for security. and it is prop
crty which can not be hidden or carried
away.
WHERE fallen leaves are abundant and
there is convenient place near the stables
Tor storing them, it is quite good plan to
gather them up and use them for bedding
in the stable. Although compared with
their bulk there is not large amount of
substance in them, whatever there is makes
a very superior fertilizer.
In winter, no matter how severe the cold,
the safety of vines may be insured by lay
ing them down in the fall and slightly COW
cring with earth. This protection is moro
easily given the grapevine than to any
other fruit tree. It is an advantage, even
if the winter is not cold enough to kill.
THE frequent failure of red clover of late
compels farmers to look for a substitute for
pasture. Nothing better than rye Sow it
after wheat, early potatoes, or oats. 1t
gives late feed and early feed. Land in-
tended for corn next year will afford two
months pasture in the fall and one month
in the spring and a green crop to turn
under-better than weeds.
WHEN potatoes are ripe, the proper time
to dig them is while the ground is dry.
They are then handled with more ease and
satisfaction that when the ground is so
moist that the soil adheres to the tubers.
They are best left on the ground in pits, and
covered with hay and earth enough to keep
out the rain and removed to the cellar on
the approach of cold weather.
THE milk temperament is born with a
cow. You may increase the butter yield BY
making her give more milk, but the relative
proposition of solids will not be greatly
changed. On the other hand, q certain line
of feeding will put water into cows milk
without showing any corresponding increase
of butter or cheese yield, sort of cruel
diet, but this don't pay, as water in milk
don't count
THERE is one thing to impress upon the
fathers of the boys about going to the fairs.
Tell them all you know about all the petty
swindles that hang around the outskirts of
the fair. Tell them it is cheaper to buy a
cane than to pitch for it, that the three card
monte man does not throw the cards he is
looking at but others under them. That no
one can tell which horse will win, or there
would be no fun in ra9ing

dreadfully dark, the heavens being mass
Of black clouds, with an occasional fash
Of lightning. Revolution was abroad
The firing commenced at 1880 p. M, and
the cannon aud gatling guns of
the palace did dreadful execution. rs did
the shots from the big guns on Fort Alex
ander, which crushed clear through the
buildings, destroying every thing
