Vhe nEaasSo ana give Lives Lost
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE corrected
list of the lost is one hundred and five
as gwen by Captain Muller of the ill
fated steampship Geiser. The Geiser
carried ninety-three passengers and a
crew of forty-three. OF the passengers
fourteen were saved and of the crew
seventeen. This makes the list of lost
seventy-seven passengers and twenty
six of the crew. Seven hours after the
collision the Wieland hove in sight.
Peter Julius Jorgensen, the second Of
hcer OF the GeiSer, says: The only ex-
PLANTATION can give is that it was rain
ing like hi. The first officer was on
the bridge and the third officer was
down on the deck taking soundings
when the crash came" There is no
excitement at the Office in this city, as
most of the passengers were fIom the
west.
At 10 O'Clock this morning FuniShce.
Edie IL Co., agents for the line, re-
ceived dispatch from Captain Lamb
that the ThingValle had arrived safely
at Halifax. Captain Muller of the
Geiser went before Danish Consul
Braenie at No. 81 Wall street this morn
ing and swOre 10 the statement of the
facts connected with the collision. The
consul stated that the circumstances
attending the collision will be investi-
gated here on the arrival of LaIub. in
stead OF Copenhagen, as the principal
witnesses can be more easily reached
in New York.
The following graphic account was
given by young druggist named
Jansen CaStbarg who Was a passenger
on board the Thingvalle enroute to
Galveston, Texas with bis sister. It
was just about daylight and with the
exception of myself and few friends
were asleep when all of sudden we
heard scuff1ing of feet on deck and
then crunching noise. Then for a
moment all was still. In second all
the passengers were cut of their berths
and all rushing for the cCnpanion
way. The screaming and din was
dea1ening, particularly from the lower
deck where the people with families
were located. After considerable
difficulty got on deck and rushed TO
see what the damage was, and just here
wish to state most emphatically
that no whistles were blown on the
ThiDgvalIe before the collision.
went to the front of the vessel and
saw gap of about twelve feet. On
| the left side the plates were rolled up
and on the top of them lay part of the
| corpse of man and the whole stern
was covered with blood and frag-
ments of flesh which were soon
washed off by the waves. The captain
| then ordered everyone on deck and
| after an ex limitation the passengers
were told that their was no danger
and they became quiet.

Unjuue Work for Women.

The fact that women who do one
thing we'll find self-support possible, Is
we'll illustrated by the success OF a
sandal company at Grand Rapids,
Mich. This establishment is owned
and controlled entirely by women. 1t
started operations some two years ago
with capital of less than two thou
sand dollars. To-day it imports its
chamois skin direct from Italy, and the
silk used in making them into sandals
for children's wear is purchased dl-
rectly from the manufacturers. The
institution gives employment to hun
dreds of needy women at remunera-
tive prices, and refuses to allow
machinery of any kind to be used. Inc
report for the year ended January l.,
1888, shows IL net profit on invested
capital of over three hundred per cent.
Work begins at eight o'clock a M ana
ceases at four p. m. What have our
masculine brothers to say nowF Are
not women as capable as men to dlrect
and control large interestsP- Hon'e" az

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

When you set hen do not pick out
the eggs indiscriminately, if you have
plenty of them. but select only the finest
specimens, avoiding eggs that are either
over or under size. They will give
more uniform chicks.
When we wish to extract Juices
from any thing we put it in cold water
and let it gradually reach the boiling
point, so when we wish the viands to
retain their juices and use the water
only as medium of cooking, then the
opposite course must be pursued.
"A physician says if children are left
to themselves to develop properly, as
rule. they will not be able to walk be.
fore they are sixteen months old, and
that if child seemed backward in
walking it should not be urged to make
the attempt until about two years old.
The drought in some States de.
creased as it extended toward the for.
ests. The Importance of preserving
the forests as an aid to a supply of rain
during the growing season can not be
too strongly urged. The farmers in
each section should form clubs for the
purpose of protecting the forests.
Fish Chowder.-Take any large
fish, and cut it in thin slices, lay some
slices of fat bacon at the bottom of the
pot, and then layer of fish, onions,
cracker dust. red and black pepper, salt
and butter; then more layers until you
have used all the fish. Cover the whole
with water and cook until we'll done.
Rice Cruel. - Mix together one
tablespoonful of rice-hour, saltspoon'
full of salt, and small cup of cold
water. Add the contents of the cup tc

twenty minutes. Sugar should be
served separately; and, when too thick
add milk until Of the proper consistency

pretended farmers it is not a success
But when it fails with a man wht

GRAINS FOR CHANGERS.

FEEDING farm crops, buying corn and OIL
cake, meals and other waste products lib
orally is the best way to make manure and
rich farm.
Hen lice will get upon horses when the
fowls are permitted to rOOst in stable.
These pests move about at night, aud will
at times trouble horses very much.
IT must be koF in view that frosts may
come at any time, even as late as June, and
it is not safe to put out large crops Of ten
der vegetables before the middle of May.
THE use of Paris green for the potato
oeetle, and London purple for the Goblin
moth, is always dangerous unless due eau
lion is employed by the operator. Every
year somebody has been poisoned.
TUBEgs increase in size so long as the
tops remain alive. The starch contained in
the tuber planted sustains the young plant
until its roots are established, hence ad-
vantage of whole tubers in giving q more
vigorous start.
GARDENS are commonly visited very early
by the various kinds Of noxiOus insects that
destroy the vegetables grown in them. One
reason for this is that they remain dor
mant in their hiding places under weeds,
pieces Of boards or clods of manure.
DAIRYIyG, when properly attended to, is
one Of the most profitable Of farm indus
tries. Great care should be taken with
calves, especially those intended for dairy
COWS. They should have lot to them
selves be well fed, and kept in good grow
! ing order.
TEAM help is often scarce, and even if moi
| it is best to use it with as great economy as
| possible. 1t is great waste OF time tc
keep a strong, able team standing idle
while men are loading and unloading. By
having two wagons this loss may be avoided
and the amount of work be nearly doubled
with little extra expense.
AS WARM weather approaches the smel
of ammonia in horse stables will be plainly
perceived, and some means should bf
| adopted to absorb or check it. The smel
shows that valuable fertilizer is escaping
and the ammonia is also worry injurious t
the sight Of horses exposed to it. More
horses go blind from this cause than an!
other.
RYE straw is generally supposed to be tn
most valuable for feeding horses, and Ga
straw is the best for cattle. Wheat stray
is not eaten so readily as the other kinds
which, when cut up and mixed with groun'
corn and outs or bran, will make excellen
food for horses at any tune. With the stray
about one fourth more ground feed sholl
be given than with timothy hay.
A FAT animal eats less than poor one
other things being equal; fat animal gain
far faster than poor one; and, like saVIn
| money il iS the first dollar that is harGpS
to save; and so it is the first pound OF ia
that is hardest to make. Every succeedn
pound is easier until the very fat Gnlnt
will grow fatter on food on which his poe
comradn would only grow poorer.

Following Fortune Through tho Flames
A Story oi the Great Wars Of To-day.
When the Grand Duke Alexis OF Russia,
visited the United States he was captivated
by the wild life of the far. western plains,
and took great fancy to the cowboys who
reminded him OF the famed Cosslcks Of his
own country. There were three COW boys
of whom he became so fond that he in
vited them to visit him in Russia. One Of
them was Jacques DIrdeville, from New
Orleans; another was Robert Macy, from
Nantucket, and the third was Rory o. Brien,
who came from Dublin when Il baby They
all had nicknames, Dardevlle's being
Daredevil jack Macy's :, Buckaro Bob"
and O'Brien's Little Bricks" from his
small stature and gamy qualities in row.
These cowboys liked the Grand Duke so
we'll that they resolved to accept his invita-
ton, and as soon as they could get ready,
they went to Russia, and hearing that
Alexis was in Moscow. they fastened thith-
er Shakespeares Macbeth was TO be played
at the theater in English on the evening Of
their arrival, and they went to see it
General SkobeIeff, the celebrated 3White

Daredevil Jack, Buckaro Bob and Little

him and his friend General Krapotkin.

THE FARMERS WIFE.
Though Living In the Best OF Air She Takes
No Advantage of 1t.

NO Advantage Oh IT,
One of tho reasons the farmers wife
is apt to look sallow and jadcd, and
why she grows old before her time, is
that the minute the weather grows
cold she stays in the house from one
weeks end to another. In summer
time, gathering berries or garden veg
etables, or feeding the chickens, will
take her out of doors. but just rs soon
as necessity no longer compelS her IL
90 into the open air she remains IN
side. One of her excuses is that she
has no time for outdoor exercise
This doubtless is true, for there Is nc
woman so hard-workcd as the farmers 5
wife, but she must 70 out for short
walk or drive, if somebody or some
thing has to suffer in consequence. lo
be sure there are not the incentives for
going out that the city woman has; the
marketing or shopping that can be
accomplished in Il walk OF 1'"
blocks. If there is to be any shopping
the "team" must be gotten up and a
drive of several miles taken. This
means a considerable expenditure OF
time and is not done any oftencr than
dire necessity requires. Perhaps the
nearest neighbor is not within walking
distance, consequently walk Will be
without any excuse in the mind OF the
average farmers wife. Go out and
walk up the road, then, Il half milo
without any excuse except the savIhe z
of your health; that is the best posS''
bic excuse that you could have. You
will come back rested in mind and
brain. You will be able to do twice as
much darning and patching, and DO j.
with better grace, with the renewed
energy which you have gained iron
your walk in the fresh, pure air Inc
farmers wife lives in the best air there
is to be had and takes the least advan'
tare of it.--DetrOit Tribune.

that we can do to memorialize the

probably be called upon to make up q
