 " yes, sir"
 Have you spoken to her on this matter"
 "She--she has referred me to you, sir"
 "Is your affection for her deep and sincere ?'

The March of Progress

It Is now possible to construct a complete sewing machine in q min ute or sixty in one hour; a reaper every fifteen minutes or less; three hunderd watches in a day, com plete in all their appointments. More important that this even is the fact that il is probable to con struct q locomotive in day. From the plans ofa draughtman to the execution of them by the workmen every wheel, lever, valve and rod may be constructed from the met le to the engine intact. Every riv- ct may be driven in the boiler, ev- cry tube in the tube sheets, and from the smoke stacks to ashpan a locomotive may be turned ont in a working day, com pletely equipped, ready to do the

AGRICULTURAL.
Y Peas as Green Manure.
re are few if any plants more

,l re are few II any pIdhte hlo'0 etiicaciouS in restoring lost fertllI- [, to depleted soils than the COW pea. It's roots pierce deeply into the subsoil, and carry the potash and pli,,phoric acid of the deeper la,ers to the surface. They more. over aerate the soil and render 1t accessible to the genial showers and the solar heat. Stll! more IS accomplished. Tue pea vine IS largely an atmospheric plant, drawing it's sustenance more from the air than from the earth. Hence its wondeful adaptability to poor land. Its leaves absorb and retaln large quantities of nitrogen, that most necessary element ot all lie. When the crop is plowed under, disintegration at once commences, and these rich stores ot nitrogen are disseminated throughout the surface soil, in easy reach ot the feeding rootlets of the succeeding crops.
 Yet even this does not end the duties performed by the pea vines All worn and exhausted soils are much more compact than IS new land. The reason of this hard, solid condition is obvious. New land, as d rule, has upon its sur. face rich layer of vegetable mold, or humus. which Is the long accu- mutation of decay, leaves, tWlgs, grass. bark and fallen trees. Sue cessive cropping finally exhausts this humus. and instead ot the once loose, mellow condition, tue land has run together and baked. Now. one of three things must be done to change the condition of the soil in order to restore its productlyencss The plan that Moses advised was to let the land .'rest and lie still every seventh vear.n (See Exodus Xxiii., ID. He knew that by lying still and resting the land would grow up in weeds, and he doubtless also knew that weeds are good cole of nitro. gen.
 Another plan of restoring lost fer tility is by spreading upon the iand such manure as possess the need ful plant for future crops. The chemical is gredients wanted namely. nitrogen, potash snd phos- phoric acid, can he easily supplied in this way by any good, complete manure. But commercial! manure are beyond the reach of many farmers. and the stable and cow-lot manure is generally far below the demand. Thereiorn the best and often the only practical solution of the problem is green ma ure crop. Glover. buck wheat and peas are the three best. The trst two are not suited to many States, but as far as my knowledge goes, COW peas will grow almost anywhere. They supply both the chemical and mechanical elements of manure. Flowed under when in full bloom. they loosen up the soil and keep 1t mellow. They should be sown as early in the spring as all danger from frost is over, and by the first or middle of June they will he ready to oplow under, It would be better before blowing under to SOW another crop on the same ground, and the seed will be GOV cred when the first crop goes un- der. This second crop may be cut for hay, or used as COW and hog pasture in the fall. Few things are more relished by cows than COW peas, and few things wlll make more or richer milk and but ter.-T. B.

WHY BOILERS EXPLODE.
A Boiler Inspector Explains His Theory and Teils How to
 Avoid Danger.

HSOiu Cdi'Sc'.
 MT. Carroll drew a diagram of a boiler head in outline upon the ta- ble. "lt's like this" he proceed ed to explain slowly and delibe- rately: "Here's the water line in this boiler" And he drew a mark across the circle.
 "Now it is the opinion of boiler men and other experts that the danger from minute flaws and ifs surcs in the shell of the boiler lies below the water line and not above it. But 1 have reached the con rluSiun that from these little flaws that go mdcterted upon the most minute examination, the entire danger is entirely above the water line. Now, mark you, l have touud from long and careful obser valion that from IJ to so per cent. Of all boiler explosions occur at about o'clock in the morning or about the time when the engine is being started up. And that most, if not wholly, the balance of the percentage happen at the starting time in the afternoon. Every To- comotivc blows up, you will per ceive, at about the same time It Is leaving the depot. l was surprls- ed at the discovery of all this, ln. asmuch as at the starting time i'll the morning boilers have no more than about seventy-tive pounds pressure of steam. That is not enough to explode the most, may say. the most defective of shells.
 Then thought it out and came to the conclusion that all ot the danger lay above the water line and from the minute Assures and punctures in the she'll It is in this way: When the.boiler IS shut down after a days work, the con- denSation forms vacuum; but through the little chinks. and leaks above the water line the air ruShes i in. In the morning when the boil CT is fired up and steam generated to seventy-hve pounds, this air cannot be elected as rapidly as the vacuum forces 1t in. There is then in the boiler 60 per cent. of water and 10 per cent. of air. The first revolution thoroughly mixed the water and 10 per cent of air. The first revolution thoroughly mixed the water and the air, and at sew enty-fve pounds pressure the air is expended with great force, and at this first revolution the boiler exploded.
 "To remedy this every engineer l in Detroit is instructed, before starting his fire, to pull his safety valve wide open until steam IS seen to come through and then shut the valve door and go on.
 "Boilers used for agricultural purposes are very liable to explode in consequence of taking water from a barrel through neglect of seeing to it that the barrel is kept full If the barrel is kept full all would be well, but 1t is allowed to become empty or .partly so, and then the pump sucks air, and when the ar is ill and fully eXpan- ded the boiler must burst"-De- troit Free Press.

MEMS OPINIONS.
Politicians Express Themselves on
TOpicS of the Time.

Hon. ]. c. Flynn said yesterday that
Nelson's vote, while not surprising him,
made him wonder. He looked medita-
lively at the bosom of the Mississippi
while adding:
PERSONALLY I am for Merriam. !
have never been a McGill man, and two
years ago told the governor SO. think
our county will send down an unin-
structed delegation"
Senator Hoard. as brown as a berry,
and looking healthy and wise, said:
~ think our section of the state will
support McGill. He has done very
well, and l think is entitled to re-
nomination. l am very much disap-
pointed with the course Knute Nelson
has taken, and think that he will live to
regret it. [ wish we could take 1900
or 5000 of the Republican votes in the
Fifth district, and distribute them in
other districts. If it could be done,
Comstock would still have a majority
there.
Flynn-Of course he would. AS it is,
1 think his majority will be 5000.
Gen. j. III. Baker, have been up on
the North shore fishing and haven't
heard thing of politics. will tell
you what think of Nelson's vote after
L know what he has voted for. shall
vote for Harrison. although l repudiate
the Chicago tariff plank.
Oh, yes, can do this consistently, for
l stand on the platform of 1884.
Capt, A. HI. Reed am just out of
the hay fields and preparing to fly poll
tics for time. am going South for
vacation.
Morton S. Wilkinson-I have not
asked for the congressional nomination
in the Second district, but if it is ten
dered to me want to make the fight
with the assurance that the Democracy
is going in unitedly to carry the state
this fall. Knute Nelson did just right
when he voted for the Mills bill.

ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Its Relation to the American Public
School.
BOSTON PEOPLE EXCITED.
Speech Delivered by Prof. Townsend
An Editorial From the Home
Journal.

BosToN, Mass, July 23.-The excite
ment here increases over the action of
the school board in removing from the
schools Swinton's history in conse-
quence of its teachings on the issue of
indulgenceS by the Catholic church.
Besides the meeting in Faneuil hall
July IL, a meeting was held
in fremont temple yesterday after
noon, for the same object of exciting
the people to resist all Catholic en-
croachments against the public school
system. Prof. Luther L. Townsend
made an address to a large
audience which was so demon
strative, that request was made
that the applause be moderated.
Prof. Townsend mentioned many of the
good features of the Catholic church
and said if he could stop the summing
up would be excellent. But half truth
was, he said, a lie, and he went on to
picture the alleged dangers to American
Institutions from the Catholic church.
Prof. Townsend is one of the pro-
Boston university, which is under
Methodist auspices.
An editorial from the Home Journal
was posted on Saturday on the most i'm
portant street corner, and below it
notice of the fremont temple meeting.
Some of the passages of this editorial
are as follows:
"Young Americans, the third great
national movement has been started on
it's course. The time has come when
every man who will not declare
himself against Jesuitism must be
denied the right to hold Office.
No foreign power of any kind shall be
allowed to presume to dictate or control
Americans or American affairs. There
is room here for all religions, but for
only one rs" and that is Americanism.

NELSON AT WASHINGTON.
Interesting Gossip as to the Court

estes Extended There.
A gentleman well posted on official
fife i'll Washington said yesterday to
the GLOBE:
'Knute Nelson shas suffered severely
In Washington from the indirect dis
courtesies aimed at him by three of his
Minnesota colleagues. refer to Sena-
tors Davis and Sabin and Congressman
Lind, who have spared no pains in a
secret manner to offend or slight Mel
son. Davis, from the start, has been in
sanely jealous of the prominence Nelson
mas gained, and the currency that has
been given to his speeches and work.
Nelson is to-day better known and ap-
preciated in the New England and East
ern states than any other Mime
sotian i'll congress. Sabin dislikes
Nelson because he has never been
able to coerce him. They have tried to
bulldoZe Nelson repeatedly without
avail. Lind, by all congressional court
estes, should have gone to Nelson for
direction in his official course, since the
latter was the senior representive Of
Minnesota. Instead, he ignored him
entirely. and ran under the coat tails of
Sabin and Davis for protection. These
three have had many opportunities to
slight Nelson, and they never missed
one. cannot vouch for the statements
truth, but have heard that the only
comment Nelson ever passed upon the
trio was:
Davis has too big head to perceive
his own littleness; no man fears Sabin
who knows him. and as for Lind-well,
he is ignorant and can't help it,
