TOBACCO, MARYLAND. DECEMBER %, 1885,


Asomo time G rcia might accompany the
Objectionable widow on mountain ex-
Hcursion. The auat never intended 10
K sep til promise; reconciiiag it With
her conscience that "some time" was so
vague that it might be ind efnitey post
ouod. and the journey never accom-
pliscd. Mysterious business took her
70 Los Angeles one day. This was the
widows opportunity. She swooped
down upoa Gucia, aud, before tho be-
wiIdcred girl roaIiz3d the situation, she
fw mounted on a Lurro, ia company
with two really cavaliers aad the widow
and her sister Their destination was
tent on the mountain slic, occupied
by the employees Of an irrigating com
pany, who were tunnelling the mou7-
taia in search OF water.
Garcil had often looked lougingly up
to the eyrio abode, which she had lik.
cncd to great whitc birl pcrched
upon the mountli1 site. They wound
sowly upward throu ii sage brush and
chapparol, pausing occasionally to look
back over the san G,brio valley away
to the distant ocean, showing through
a tit in til, hills.
By and by Glrcia felt strange and
unpleasant qualm as her lurro crcpt
gingerly around the unu5u1lly steep
prccipicc. The distant tent looked
moro than ever like bird ready to take

The widow, gIanciag backward, ex-
claimed at her pale face:

Ido?'

There was great commotiol among
men aad beasts, smelling salts were APP
pied and bottles wero uncorkod, and
G lrcia oponcd her eyes to fad herself
upon terra frma, sheltered by q big
grease wood brush. NJ persuasion
could ind duce her to romouat, but at
her earnest request, tho rest Of the
b r'y continued their upward journey,
leaving her in her present retreat for
the few hour, that would intervene be-
fore their return homo. Garcia gave
sigh OF relief as a bend in the trail hid
them from view, and she was left alone.
The day was perfect, and sho revolled
in her independence and tho gloriou,

she heard the music Of hidden stream.

There is a horse belonging to
Jake Klein's Brewery that would
be drunkard if allowed to have
his way about it. He prefers beer
to water. An employee at the stable
says if he is left standing near a
beer key he will turn the keg over
and snuff the stale liquid. Even
the water that has been used to
wash the kegs or bottles has an at
traction for him. Occasionally he
is given good beer, and he loses no
time disposing OF it.

The Chronicle argues that the
strikes in the coal regions of Penn
sylvania are due to the high pro-
tective tariff on coal. A man with
half an eye can see that they are
due solely to the refusal of the Gov
errnent to protect American labor
against the pauper importations of
Europe. The crowd which the
Chronicle would "welcome" to our
shores are the meA who have
crowded American labor out of the
market, and are now trying to

A very simple and efica-
cious plan for preserving fruit from
frost, aud one that has long been
in use iii many sections Of the coun
try, is described as follows ''Snall
plies of manure, cows dung pre-
ferred, are placed at intervals Of
thirty yards or SO through All or
chard, and on evenings when frost
is expected, are set on lire. These
shoulder all night, giving off some
heat and a dense smoke, which has
the property of remaining near the
earth and thus protecting the blos-
SONS from the possibility of the dew
upon them freezing. These piles
may be made quite large, aid by
extlnguishing the fire mornings, may
be made to last Il week or more.
The great drawback to extensive
fruit raising here has been the frosts,
which usually come when the trees
are in bloom or bud, and one nights
freezing in the right season may de-
stroy an immense amount of fruit.
If some efficient method could be
invented to ward off this evil,
farmers would go more generally into
ruit-raising, but as it is now, in
fully one-half the years the fruit
crop is lost owing to this singular
Spring frost which comes about the
last of April, and in one or two
nights blights the entire crop. Ne
vada apples are SO much better than
any raised in California that if they
could be grown here in larger guam
titles, California would afford ready
market for them. Tribune.

just a 'Erifie Remarkable

|
A dispatch in referring to the re-
sult OF the election in Louisiana
says:
"The most remarkable vote is
that OF Rapides parish, which cast
its entire vote, 1000 for the Demo-
cratic ticket.
Rapides had population of 49,
500 in 1880 and carried 7,20Onames
on its registration. 1t is considered
somewhat remarkable that 1000
voters should have been at the
polls"
Well, yes, We should say it was
just tri1e remarkable. At least
it would seem SO in a Northern
State if every third person in the
county were allowed to vote and
every vote cast should be for the
Democratic ticket.
1t may be such a common thing
in the South as not to attract atten-
ton, but it would seem that the
ballot box suffers and bulldozers
even ou.did themselves in this
parish ard caused the Democratic
chronicler TO express mild amount
of astonishment at the result. y
900 voters out of a population OF
IS. 500 and not single Republican
vote is just little remarkable even
in the Solid South.
