THE POTATO.
Dig Your Potatoes as Soon as the
 Vines are Quite Dead.

The quicker ripe potatoes are out of is dry Iwould not hesitate to dig the po- tatoes at once, though the weather was warm. The tubers can be kept better out of the ground than in. If left in the ground and there are heavy rains, the potatoes are apt either to rot or to take second growth, while they will will bemore disagreeable to handle and oils potatoes not dug as soon as ripe are apt to rust. So my advice is to dig the potatoes as soon as the vines are quite dead; though it is early in August.
 The potatoes must be thoroughly dried, but they must not be allowed to get warm. I have known growers to lose hundreds of bushels by exposing them ts hot midday sun. Make in con- venient location shed open at all sides, roof of boards or branches of straw, sup ported on forked stakes driven in the ground. This shed is easily, quickly made. It should be high that it may be airy. In its shade put the potatoes as they are dug. Spread them out as we'll as you can. By putting each bucketful at 8 different place until all the heap has been gone over, and then beginning as before, the potatoes from dry ground will be sufficiently dried before they arc covered so deep that the hot, dry air cannot reach them. When dry they may be transferred to bins in we'll ven tilated building or shed, there to remain until they are put in the cellar or in pits at the near approach of cold weather, or they may be put on the floor, provided the floor is raised some inches from the ground, and they are not placed deeper than IS inches upon it, the place being dry, airy, and dark always. Or they may be taken to the cellar at once if it is quite cool and dry and we'll ventilated. if they are thoroughly ripened and dried, | and if they are put in bins raised on legs IS inches from the floor and made, sides and bottoms, of slats, and not more than IS inches deep. Potatoes dug later, when the weather is cool, may be put in convenient, regular heaps, on some high, dry point; first covered with vines ol straw, to depth of four to six inches, and then with earth six inches deep, vel, compacted and smoothed, and pointed with the back of the shovel, that it may shed the rain well. In this condition the potatoes may be left until tho near ness of the season of severe weather warns you that they should be pittet or tored in the cellar.

SEE IT SOON OR NEVER A New Comet 142,OOO,OOO Miles
 from Us.

W. R. Brooke, of Geneva, N. Y., has an- nounced the discovery of 8 comet. It was in the northwest at evening" and only about 30 deg. from the sun, SO that it dses not remain long above the horizon after sundown. For this reason very few observations have been secured. At the Dudley Observatory the new comet has been observed on three nights Aug. 10, IA and 16. The comet is quite faint. Prof. Boss calculated an orbit for the stranger, and the result was telegraphed by code message to the American Association for the Advancement of Science, now ill ses- sion in Cleveland, and to the Earl of Crawford and to the Astronomical Intelligence Bureau in Berlin, Germany. The new comet will not be an interesting object in the popular sense. It is slowly approaching the earth, but reced- ing from the sun. It is now in the lower part of the constellation Great Bear, and is moving toward Leo. It is at present s2, GOO, 900 miles from the earth On the 18th inst. it will be 2,OOO, 900 miles nearer Then it VII recede in an accelerated ratio, and will probably be lost to view about the middle of September. The path of this comet is not similar to that of any recorded comet. In all probability it will not again return to the earth in thousands of years, if at all.

MEXICO'S FINANCES.
Buying United States Agricultural
 Machines

The continual depreciation of silver ex- change on New York, being now 8 fraction above 37, gives much anxiety to bankers who now universally admit that the bottom has dropped out of silver and predict still higher rate of exchange. It is generally be- lieved that exchange on New York will rise to 40. Interviews with leading bankers show that the opinion prevails that the Government should enter at once on the policy of fostering agriculture, so that Mexico may pay more and more her foreign imports ill coffee, sugar, etc. There is already marked increase in the at- tention being given to agriculture, and large importat ons of American agricultural nlachin- cry are being made as it is found that the Americans make lighter and stronger machin- cry than the English.
 It is highly probable that the export duties on cabinet woods will soon be repealed. There are rumors that tue tariff will be again re- duced, as the first reduction has proved sue cessful financial experiment. President Diaz will not permit Minister Duban to resign, as that statesman's conduct of the finances has been productive of excellent results.

MANIPULATING COUNTERFEITS One Million in Coin and Notes to be
 Destroyed.

One million dollars in coin and notes will be destroyed by order of the Trea -ury Department within the next few days. If the money was genuine this proceeding would strike most people as very novel and reprehensible mode of rldding ourselves af our redundant surplus. It Is, however, counterfeit, and it's destruction, therefore, together with all the appliances for making it, is the best possible use to which it can be put
 The counterfeit coin consists in the main of dollar and half dollar pieces. The aggregate amount is $62 900. It will be carted to the Navy Yard, where it will be placed in huge crucible and melted. Its weight in round numbers is twenty-five hundred pounds, or a considerable excess of one ton. When taken from the crucible it will be sold to the junk dealers for old lead
 The notes, the face value of which is $1, 1,O0O,- GOO, will be destroyed by maceration, the same as all condemned paper money is which is sent to the Treasury Department for redemption. Such of these notes as were engraved by garded by experts as superior to those issued by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Smith, 1t will be remembered, was associated with Doyle and Broadway in some of the most gigantic counterfeiting operations known in the annals of crime. He was an employee of the New York Bank Note Engraving Company at the time, and prepared his plates at night after his return from work
 He counterfeited at the same time 8 number of six per cent. one hundred dollar United States bonds, which were skilfully executed that the bank officials of Chicago purchased them readily, ard when told they were counter feited refused to believe it. These bonds as we'll as number of count rfeit notes on the Revere Bank, of Boston, and the Pittsfield Na- tional Bank will be retained from the general slaughter as evidence of the highest develop ment of the counterfeiter's skill

GENERA AL SHERIDAN'S WILL.
A Life Interest in One Third of His
 Etate to His W fife.

The will of the late General Sheridan was fled in the Probate Court at Washington and admitted to probable. It is witnessed by John David Stanhope, E. Blunt and R. MacFeely, and is dated May 23, 1888. It commences in the usual form: ''In the name of God, amen, 1, Philip H. Sheridan of the city of Washing ton. District of Columbia, being of sound and disposing mind and memory, do make. etc." He leaves to his beloved wife, Irene Fucker Sheridan, one third of his real estate, except the Ohio homestead, for her patural life. and one-third of all personal property, the same in lieu of dover. To Mrs. Kate Sheridan he leaves the Ohio homestead, to revert to his son, P. H. Sheridan In fee simple, all the rest of the property he leaves to his wife, Michael Y. Sheridan and Linden Kent. in trust to recover rents, etc., for the maintenance and education of his children, and if more than is necessary the excess to be paid to his wife. As each of his children shall reach the age of 21 years the trustees shall assign such child its share in the estate. He gives the care and guardianship of his children 10 his wife, and names the trustees also as executriX and execu- tors. The petition states that there are four children, aged 12, II and 2. That his personal estate consists of S2, 72l money, SS,000 stocks, etc., S5, GOO swords, etc., B, 900 household fur niture, $500 horse and carriage, and $500 in the house at Nonquitt, and the indebtedness is not more than Sl ,250 Letters testamentary were granted Mrs. Sheridan, Col Sheridan and Mir Ken. on bond of g.. .50,.

Too Lovely for Anything.

I must tell you, writes Nina in the London 1'a6ls, of lovely gown made for Miss Winslow, the American beauty. It was in faille, snrah and lace. The trimming was of shaded roses without leaves, arranged as fringe, with plast- ron of roses on the corsage. The color is in the new French shade, called puree de pois. Lace founces from the front of the jupon, and bouquet of roses to the left fixes the drapery of the second founce. A silk skirt, made as 0 redin- gote, opens over the front. The back is 8 kind of princess robe, folded toward the hips in an irregular series of shells. The bodice is cut in V-shape and hooks beneath the rose plastron, The front open overythe plastron and are carried to the waist with several big lace shells, drawn to the figure by sash draped in surah. The sash falls on both sides and is finished by roses. The sleeves are short and boufante, with fringe of roses.

Hands Off, Please.

An anecdote is related in connection with the little two-year-old King of Spain, which shows what strong hold ceremonial forms still have upon the Spanish court. The baby monarch had been presented by his aunt with Q swing. When he was placed in it for the first time the unwonted motion frightened him and he burst out crying, whereupon one of the lackeys rushed forward and lifted him out. This was reported to the royal master of cere- monies, who at once dismissed the ser want because he had dared to touch the person of the king, privilege confined to the nurse and the personal attendant The lackey appealed to the queen re- gent, representing that his action may have saved the king from injury. The queen could not venture to reinstate him, that was impossible; but she ap- pointed him to another post in the royal household.

FIT FOR THE GODS.
How to Prepare the Genuine Boston
 Baked Beans.

"Can you tell me- writes a house. keeper, "wherein Boston baked beans differ from those baked and served else where? And how do you get up dish of Boston baked beans, anyway"
 The difference IS this: When you and your Gotham sisters set out to cook beans you first make bean soup, and then, by baking, you evaporate the moisture and the result is sort of taste less paste, while your Boston cousin simply softens the beans in the first place and then bakes them for seven hours in a slow oven. In her dish every bean retains it's form, but it is fully cooked, and it is very palatable, too.
 If you really want to astonish his lord ship and all the rest of the family some Sunday morning follow these directions and you will be able to serve a break fast dish that they will enjoy.
 Pick them over carefully and wash them. Then put them in tin dish and cover them with cold water. Set the dish on the back of the stove where the water will heat very slowly and allow them to t'parboil' for several hours, say three at least. The water must not come to a boil at all until, per haps, just at the last.
 Then you will find that your dish contains about twice as many beans apparently, or even more, than it did at the beginning.
 Of course you have secured bean pot, round earthern jar, tapering toward the top and glazed inside. Into this put your beans, having first drained off the water in whichthey have "parboiled' and either in the centre of the jar, so that it will be completely buried by the beans, or else embedded in the top and this may be as you please-place a good, big thick cube of salt pork at least three inches deep.
 Now comes a, question upon which even Bostonians don't agree, and you will have to decide it for yourself, and that is the question of sweetening. All Boston is divided into two parts, those who sweeten their beans and those who don't Try both ways and decide for yourself.
 Ifyou conclude to have them unsweet- ened, fill your bean-pot full of water, after having placed the pork in position, and set the bean-pot in the oven. It must be slow oven, for the beans must be six hours at least in baking, and even seven will not hurt them if the fire be just right. Fill up the bean-pot with water from the teakettle when it bakes out, but be careful to so gauge this that when the dish is done the beans will be neither dry nor swimming in liquid.
 If you decide to experiment with sweetening put some molasses, or syrup or sugar into the beans when you fill the pot; by 'some molasses'' you are to understand that you must consult your own taste, but for guess put about three or four tablespoonfuls into pot of beans which you intend to serve as breakfast for four people. Otherwise proceed as before.

His Teeth Saved Him.

Capt. Malloch of the fishing schooner Ran
 dolph, owned in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, re- ports that few days ago, while anchored in Harbor Delute during severe storm, his ves- sel broke from her moorings and drifted to sea. The crew were all on shore at the time.
 The following morning Capt. Malloch found the schooner ashore on Spence Island Point. He succeeded ill boarding her, and ran up one of the small sails She began to forge ahead in- to deep water, but had not gone far before he noticed that large hole had been stove in her bottom and that she was rapidly sinking. He jumped into his boat, which was made fast astern, but was unable to unite the line that held her. He had no knife or anything with which to cut it, and as the vessel was rapidly settling in the water he despaired of ever reaching shore again. He at last tried his two tdst as the vessel plunged forward and
