Our market is at our very doors, the best
In the world, and wo ought TO be able TO
compete on prices with good stock brought
here from any State. We know one party
OF gentlemen who purchased the past fall
two ear loads OF the best class OF yearling
mules from Tcxhs. This winter they will
b. fed we'll, and next winter will be win
tered in cam and rough hay. Tho parties
ought TO double their money At least on
snch stock. In buying yearling mules in
Texas, the best grade OF stock, or In the
west, and then raising them here and de-
vcloping them here, there Is considerable
money 10 be made. II would be better,
however, II there were enough breeders OF
mules here nj home 10 meet the demands
Of such purchasers, and 1t will be 20 in
time.

THE FARM.
value Of Fertilizers.
Prom The Southern cultlyalor.

Prom the Southern Cultiyator.
Good fertilizers, judiciously applied,
should be considered as an investment
rather than an expense. An increase OF
the area in cultivation involves increased
expense of labor, supplies, implements,
etc, but an increase in the quantity OF fer
tilizers need not involve any material adj
ditional expense, and while We have pre-
missed that q uniform distribution gives
better results ON the whole, the correct
conclusion is 20 reduce areas and fcrtilize
both literally and uniformly the entire
crop cultivated. A farmer may highly fer
tilize twenty acres and make good profit,
but the 100 or more acres unfertilized may
result in such q loss az will swallow up the
profits ON the twenty acres and tho aggrc-
gate or average result will be loss instead
OF gain. There are thousands, yea, hum
dreds of thousands Of acres annually cult
valed in the south that do not yield one
cent of profit, but, on the contrary,
entail positive and real loss. The
remedy Is either TO throw such
acres out OF cultivation, or cultivate them
IN different way The most available
and immediate remedy Is 10 throw such
land out OF cultivation, and conine our ei-
forts 10 smaller areas, with less expense Of
labor. stock. etc, and increase the invest
ment in fertilizers. There are many farms
yielding n scanty living for all concerned,
where II would be wise 10 sell onc-half the
mules, one-hali the plows and other imple-
menis, one-half the land Tor let IL rest),
dispense with half the labor, and invest
the money saved in fertilizers, improved
stock and improved implements, and such
appliances as may be needed 10 reduce loss
and waste. The farmer who confines his
best efforts and skill to n small portion OF
his farm and still continues the whole area
In cultivation has practically only reduced
ara without reducing eXnensts.

2. One thousand pounds Of the meal

would act more promptly, and therefore
would be exhausted sooner than the cotton

THE STATE INTERESTED.
DIR. Hewitt Pronounces the SMALL

Some members of council and several

reported case is one of genuine small

sight. His head was swollen TO double
its normal size, and his lips were bloated
and pulled enormously. There was no
doubt of the case. DR.. Hewitt at once
pronounced it a case of continent small
pOX, in the puStular stage, and one of
the most Virulent he had ever known.
Upon returning to the city several
aldermen were seen, and DR.. Hewitt
took occasion to read them a moral
lecture on the necessity of giving the
board OF health the proper powers and
of avoiding all interference. The local
board then held a meeting, and formal
report of the case was made. This
morning the board will hold another
meeting.
Since the patient was removed to the
pest house, very many improvements
have been made and things are begin
ming to look very comfortable. In a

Three Men Killed in q Blockade
on the Connecticut Railroad.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Jan. 27.-The
mail train from the north on the Con-
necticut River railroad, due at Holyoke
at 6 O'Clock last night, became stalled in
a cut two miles north of that city. A
gang of men went to work this morning
to dig it out. The snow was blowing
about so thick that nothing could be
seen few feet distant, and the 1880
train from Greenfield dashed into the
gang, killing three men and injuring
another fatally. The killed are Martin
Griffin, James Kennedy and John Shea,
and the injured man is Michael Con-
nOrs, all of HOlyoke. The trainmen
say they had not been warned to look
out for a gang of men. The whistle
was blown and Roadmaster Pritchard
ordered the men off the track. They
used by the down train. Many of the
men rushed to the cars of the stalled
train, but those killed were too late.
FIVE TRAINS SHOWED IN.
PITTsFIELn, Mass, Jan. 27.-Five
long passenger trains on the Boston IL
Albany road are showed in here. The
fast st. Louis express spent last night
in a SnOwdrift near Washington cut.
There were over hundred passengers
on board, but Notwithstanding the fact
that the thermometer marked ten below
zero they did not suffer from the cold.
The fast mail, which left Boston last
night for the West, spent the night in a
drift one mile from Hinsdale. The
passengers suffered greatly from the
cold, and many ladies were Frustrated.
A number of children were badly FROST
bitten. They could obtain but little
food: but the country drug store sup
piled the passengers with brandy.
Three engines with a snow pillow are
stuck in drift near Richmond furnace.
Freight trains covering over a mile of
track are showed in near Shakers, and
much perishable goods will be lost. In
many places the snow has drifted to the
depth of 40 feet. A passenger train
that can go two miles an hour is con-
Sidered to be making great time.

BIG MONEY IN THIS.
An Opportunity to Double Your Money
Any Time Without Risk.
One of the Most Elegant Bar Outfits to
Be Sold at Great Sacrifice.

Those who have ever visited the SAM
pie room of A. II. Knowles. 81 Washing
ton avenue south, and taken note of the
bar, mirrors, sideboard, showcase,
screens and other appurtenances con-
tanned therein, are convinced that they
are the finest and most complete west
of Chicago. In minor details a doubt
is expressed if any sample room in the
Lake City equals them, and yet the en-
tire outfit is to be sold prior to Feb. in
order to vacate the premises on that
date. The bar is twenty-fOur feet long
and made of solid mahogany, the upper
part being single piece of this eXpen-
Sive wood, without crack or blemish,
while the front is laid off in panels COW
cred with hand-carved figures of varl-
GUS designs. The inner part of the bar
Is treated III the same artistic manner,
and contains every convenience per-
tanning to a firSt-claSS bar. The mirror
is the largest and most expensive one
of the kind in the country, being di-
vided into one central plate glass, Cox
120 inches, with a counterpart on either
side of 72X96 inches, making total
glass area of 2,112 square inches, and
the entire surface is surrounded by
heavy, ornate, hand-carved mahogany
top with an exceedingly unique cornice,
artiStically hand-carved into fruits,
bulbs, etc., while the ends are sup
ported by mahogany pilasters with pol
iShed columns at either side of the cen
trail pier. The wide counter at the base
of the glass is of the same material as
the bar, and underneath are closets and
drawers, hid from view by deep, inlaid
panels of hand-carved doors. which
swing upon brass hinges and locked
with polished brass catches. There is
SidebOard of unique and attractive de-
sign of mahogany and plate glass. with
ornate cOrGice, base and sides. and pol
ished columns in the center. There is
also beveled plate glass screen of SO
inches, encased in an antique oak frame
with heavy cornice and pilasters;
showcase twelve feet i'll length, whose
glass is solid plate without a break,
while every article of furniture is re-
plete to correspond with their surround
ings. The cost of this outfit was over
$1,000, bnt in order to close it out by the
date specified great sacrifice will be
made, hence any one desiring the finest

DEMOCRATS DIFFER
AS to Whether the City Officers
Should Resign Council Will

None of 1t.
When the council was called to order
yesterday afternoon there was a bare
quorum present, many of the city faith
ers being out taking sun baths, as yes
terday was really the first day this year
that a man could go out on the street and
take sun bath with any degree of COM
fort. As soon as the meeting was called
to order, Aid. Dwyer took the floor and
made vigorous attack on Aid. L'Her-
ault'S resolution introduced at pre-
viOuS meeting requesting Mayor AmeS
term. He thought it was all wrong, and
moved as an amendment that the reSolu-
ton be changed so as to request the
mayor and other city officers to resign
their offices at the expiration of their
terms. There was no second to this
peculiar amendment. and on motion the
whole matter was laid over for one
week.
The building ordinance which has
been given at length in the GLOBE sew
eral times, was next taken up and read.
AS the reading progressed Aid. St0ft
moved that the building inspector be
called to listen to the reading. Aid.
Mills objected. on the ground that he

johnson seconded Aid. Stoft's motion,
and the building inspector was called
and the reading proceeded. Aid.
LHerault wanted section 3S amended
so as to take the power of appointing as
SiStantS away from the building in
spector, and placing their appointments
in the hands of the council. Aid. E.
NJ. Johnson opposed this amendment,
saying it was bad plan to take the
power away from the building in
spector. as it would do much toward
hurting the efficiency of the depart
ment. On vote being taken the
amendment was lost by vote II to II.
A vote was taken on the passage of the
ordinance, and but Is aldermen voted
in favor of the ordinance. The council
then adjourned.

The Husbands VERSION.

The Ward divorce case is still on trial

was on the witness stand yesterday, and
told very different story in relation to
his married life from the one told by
the plaintiff. According to the defend
ant there has been no trouble between
him and his wife, and their married
life has been happy one, without any
trouble of any kind, and the
wrongs which his wife complains of are
imaginary and the result of some nerv-
GUS trouble which she has contracted.
