IT is better to pinch off the extra
shoots of trees rather than TO allow
them TO grow, as less injury is done the
trees. Trees can be pruned with the
fingers If the new shoots are tipped.
1t is a waste OF vitality to permit shoots
to grow until they are so large that
knife or saw is required for their re-
moyal.

!ShdringS from the oiled wood used
In the manufacture of planes at an
Eastern factory were recently put into
barrel, and twenty-four hours later
were found to be almost on fire, their
temperature being over 300c f. Before
6 O'Clock the shavings were charred and
smoking a few inches beneath the sur
face. This Is practical demonstration
of spontaneous combustion, and illus
trates how many mysterious and
destructive fires may have originated.
Oiled rags and waste operate In the
same manner.

SPEAKING OF growing alsike it is

the red clover; 1t is more certain OF

THE root crops are sometimes enor-
nous on rich land, and can be grown
at a low cost compared with their
value. Aas many as 1000 bushels of
beets have been grown on one acre,
and at cost of only cents per bushel.
For milch COWS they are Invaluable,
and should be made a special crop on
all dairy farms.

THE bones of a weIl-bred, well-fed
hog aresald to represent only about one
twentieth part of its grass weight. An
animal of this nature must necessarily
carry a great deal Of fat, but the i'm
pOrtance OF making il well muscled to
keep it from complete deyeneracy is
self-evident TO any thoughtful person;
hence inasmuch as the natural tendency
of the hog is to fat, feeders should
make 1t point to counteract the evil
by using the most nutritious feed, 20
the exclusion OF fat-forming food.

To CLEAN CELLAR.-A good agency
for keeping the air of the cellar sweet
and wholesome is whitswash made of
good lime and water only. The addi-
ton of glue or size, or anything of this
class, is only to It's damage by furnish
ing organic matter to germinate dis
ease. The use of lime In whitewash is
not simply to give a white color, but 1t
greatly promotes the complete oxida-
ton of effluvia in the cellar air. Any
vapors that contain combined nitrogen
in the unoxidized form contribute pow
erfully to the development of disease
germs.

DR.. McCosh Presents the Report of the
Judicial Committee.
PHILADELPHIA, May 25.-The first thing
the assembly did this morning was to vote
to meet next year in the Fourth Avenue
Presbyterian church, New York. Then
DR.. McCosh presented the report of the
judicial committee and the reoommenda-
tions were approved until was reached the
appeal of Judge Charles I Drake against
the synod of Baltimore, in the case of
Rev. Geo. o. Little, in WEIGH the synod
had refused to condemn the responsive
reading OF the scriptures to public wor-
ship. The judicial committee recon-
mended that the appeal be not sustained.
On DR.. Crosby's motion the case was re-
ferred back to the committee, with in
structions to report upon the ordsrly
character of the appeal. This will bring
the whole matter of responsive reading
before the general assembly.
Reverend Herrick johnson, of Chicago,
chairman of the committee on foreign
missions, made a very encouraging ex-
hibit of the work of spreading the gospel
among the heathens. The report recon-
mended a contribution for the cause of
foreign missions during the present year.
The report of the committee and accom-
panying recommendations were adopted.
These recommendations include one
added by Reverend Doctor Crosby to send
seven elders to attend the organization of
the presbytery of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil,
in August next. 1t was announced by
Doctor Crosby that the expenses of such
a commission would be borne by private
subscription.

Wis came here to examine this property

came to look after investments heretofore
made and Improvements now going up on
their lots. They all left here yesterday
morning very much pleased with what
they saw. 1t is understood here that when
Mr.. burst builds he will use granite.
Speaking of granite, your reporter saw
a number of curious things up at Granite
City yesterday that have been brought to
light in clearing up the new town, the
most notable of which is beautiful shaft
of rough dressed granite, nine and half
feet high, square base two feet high, then
round and gradually tapering seven and a
half feet high and pointed at the top.
Weight, two and one half tons. There are
no inscriptions or characters of any
kind upon it to give an idea of
its maker or its purpose. 1t was found in
new channel of Backbone creek, thirty
yards west of the old bed of the creek, at
the extreme north edge of the granite
formation of this section. 1t was evil
IDENTIFY left unfinished by its maker. This
monument, or whatevet it is, Is now being
removed from its long resting place to the
very top of the granite mountain, where
it is being set up in cement and bolted to
the rock, so that IL can never fall.
The beautiful spring at Granite City has
new basin of dressed granite, and is a
lovely spot.

though it Is said by those in position to
know that he has prepared a written con-

which he acknowledges his guilt and i'm

Bold Robbery of a Postofhce.

special Telegram TO the statesman.
MARSHALL, May 23.-About IL O'Clock
this morning, while the fire department of
this and neighboring cities were in pro-
cession and passing the postoffice, some
sneak thief entered the office and succeeded
in robbing it of about $1,000 in stamps,
$500 in postal money and about 800 of
Postmaster Jennings private funds,
making a haul of $1,40O. Postmaster
jennings being a member of the
fire department was in the pro-
cession. W. R. Jennings, brother
to the postmaster, and register
letter clerk, Geo. Wood, stamp and money
order clerk, and 7. 1. Logan, delivery
clerk, were on daty. As the procession
passed they locked the rear door of the
postoffice, which opens into the rear..yard
of the hotel, and passing to the front of
the Office, keeping an eye, as they thought,
on the rear door and windows. But
while they were observing the pro-
cession the thief entered through a
window and made his haul and de-
parted. The theft was not discovered
for perhaps half an hour afterwards when
W. R. Jennings approached the safe to get
a registered pouch, and noticed the condi
ton of things. Alarm was given, butup to
this time the thief has not been appre-
hended. A lady living just to the rear of
the hotel saw some one that she describes
minutely jump the fence and run off.
The party, when he jumped the fence,
dropped package of stamps, about $40
worth, that were returned to the post
master. The sheriff's dogs were tried
on the track, but there had been so much
passing they could do nothing. Officers
are at work on the case, and it is conf
IDENTIFY believed the party or parties will
be caught.

SAD ACCIDENT
An Awning Falls Upon Barge-load OF

Pleasure seekers.
Special Telegram to the Statesman.
HoUsToN, May 25.-About o'clock this
morning a sad accident occurred to &
barge.load of people returning from the
Volksfest celebration. The boat contained
about 200 ladies, gentlemen and children,
and it was a marvellous escape from ter
rible calamity. AS the barge was passing
under the San Jaointo bridge, one of the
tow lines was loosed and the barge swung
around, coming in contact with a pier of
the bridge with terrific force. The
shock knocked down the heavy awning
which had been erected for the protection
of the passengers from the sun or rain.
This clumsy affair, which was built of
plank and tarpaulin, fell upon the passen-
gers like mash trap. Those who saw
the accident from the tug thought that
everybody on the barge had been killed or
wounded. After the debris had been
cleared away it was found that only one
had been seriously hurt, Prof. Herb, leader
of the Light. Guard band. 1t is feared
that his back has been broken, and grave
doubts are entertained for his life.
