Won der Ahe's Charges smoothod Over-
 Return to the Gunrantee system.
 PHILADELPHIA, Aug. S.-The meeting of American Association took place at the Continental yesterday. The charges of Von der Ahe against Byrnc of the Brook lyns that he tempered Tip O'Neil of the St. Louis and used his influence with Empire Ferguson to advance his interests, were first considered. The charges were dis missed in resolutions setting forth Won der Ahe's denial, declaring belief in Byrnes' honesty and integrity of Ferguson. The Brooklyn Club was held to be indiscreet in communicating with O. Neil relative to his release.
 Action on the Kansas City-Brooklyn game was postponed, and the Cleveland Club was ordered to pay Brooklyn the money withheld by order of President Wyckoff.
 The Association voted to return to the guarantee system, to go into effect August 9. Each city shall regulate it's own admis- sion, provided 1t shall not be less than 9 cents, and visiting clubs will receive Q guarantee of S130, or twelve and half per cent of the receipts.

WASHINGTON ARRANGEMENTS.

 Department Orders.


 Department Orders. WASHINGTON, Aug S.--The officers Of the army were somewhat disappointed over the decision of Mrs. Sheridan to have the remains of tho General interred at Arling ton. la their judgment the Soldiers Home would have been a far moro appro- priate place. They refer to the many con- versations which Sheridan had on this very point, similar to that which the gen eral had with the writer shortly after Grants funeral Sheridan said on that occasion with hls customary emphasis: "Grant ought to have been buried at the Soldiers Home. It Is a shame and dis grace to lay him away in that race course. sherman should be placed in the Soldiers Home after his death, and Scott ought to be there now" Isuppose.' he added im- mediately, "I ought to go there. too"
 It Is fortunate that the day of the funer- al here has been postponed to Saturday. The regulations of the army prescribe the number of troops who shall attend the ob- seQuies of the General-ln Chief; this should consist of one regiment of infantry, bat talion o1 cavalry and two light batteries of artillery. There are present in Washing ton but two companies of cavalry and one artillery. The troops necessary to make up the escort will have to be transported from New York. Fortress Monroe and Fort McHenry.

ALL the dead branches might be cut out this fall, thus lessening the work in the spring by so much. Put on the orchard all tho chip manure, leached ashes, ,unleached ashes, old rotten wood, compost, scrapings of the yards, coal ashes and refuse of every sort that can be narrowed in. Scatter it evenly over the ground and harrow it well, both ways, loosening the, surface of the ground all you can. Do this right away. In the spring prune and graft If need be, and scrape the rough bark from the trunks, following this with the application of a mix ture of whitewash and Svhite soap suds, or put some potash in the whitewash. Use plenty of ashes and lime in the orchard every year.
