CHURCHILL SOUNDS AN ALARM.
The Conservatives Urged to Develop
Their Latent Energy.

LONDON, July 29.-Lord Randolph
Churchill, in a speech at Walsall to-day,
strongly urged the conservatives to develop
their latent energy, and not to fall into the
error of undertaking their opponents
strength. He said that the by-elections had
shown that the opposition had more popu-
lar strength than he as a Conservative
liked, while the conservatives lacked CORE
spending energy. The whole fate Of the
empire depended upon the result of the next
election, and it was therefore necessary that
the unlonists exert themselves

RICHMOND, VA, July 29.-Gov. Lee has
received a letter from the Commonwealth's
Attorney Moore, of Patrick county, in
which the latter appeals to the governor to
aid him in furnishing desperadoes who are
guilty of lawless acts along the North Car
olina and Virginia border The letter says:
Last Sunday, while religious worship was
being conducted in this county near the
North Carolina line, one John Smith
shot off a pistol near the spring,
remarking that il he and
his companions had some more whisky they
would axe the preacher from the pulpit
and have some fun. j. w. Griggs, an
officer " no was preso t, went to the spring,
and finding John Smith with pistol in his
hand, ord red his arrest. After a severe
struggle Smith was disarmed and given in
charge of the officer.

GAS soon as he was placed under arrest
he began calling in q loud voice for his
comrade, William Smith, to come to his
rescue and shoot the - rascal. William
Smith, who was but short distance OIL,
came running up with a pistol his hand
and opened fire on the persons having John
Smith in custody. The bYstanders at
tempted to arrest him, and during the
struggle William Smith shot young man
who had hold of him three times,
twice in the arm and once through
the shoulders. Officer Griggs was
shot through the bowels and died the next
day John Smith is now in jail. William
Smith escaped across the Virginia line to
his home about eight miles distant, These

An Animal which Is q Comparative
Stranger to Most People.
Few Washington people know what
a wolverine is. They know that Michi-
gan is called the Wolverine State and
that Michigan people are called VOL
verines. But they have little or no
idea why the State was so named or
what the nickname means
The State is named after an animal
that used to infest. and still frequents.
the dense woods in the northern part
of the State, as well as in the woods of
Northern Wisconsin and Canada This
animal is the wolverine, or. as the va
rieties of him found in northern Euro
pean countries are called, the glutton.
They are savage beasts, these wolver-
ines are, and they play sad havoc with
the cattle of the Michigan farmers
They are like cross between a wolf
and bear. The tail and the temper re-
semble those of wolf, but in strength
and size and sssageness they much re-
semble a bear, a very bad bear.
They are less clumsy than bears,
though, and they can climb trees.
Many a hunter has walked under a tree
up in Michigan without looking for a
wolverine in the tree first, and the
wolverine dropped down on him from
one of the lower limbs, and before the
next morning had him eaten up. buck
skin breeches and all, even to the heels
of his hunting boots. They are ugly
looking beasts, the only pretty thing
about them being their bushy tail, q
foot or SO long. Their claws are longer
and sharper than bears. and their
teeth just sharp.
Altogether the animal which the
secretary fancies to start his zoolog-
ical garden with is a very unpleasant
sort of one to see outside of cage.
They are SO savage AMI SO wary and
suspicious that it is almost impossible
to catch them alive, and SO they dom t
have them in circuses and geological

what they are. They are SO savage
that hunters don't care to hunt them.

GRAND CANARY FUNERALS.

The Spanish Burial Ceremony and Gre
nation by Quicklime.
Slowly the head of a funeral process
sion appeared from the street by the
Bishops palace and began to glide be-
tween the promenade and the church.
Four laughing acoiytes in scarlet cas-
socks, with crucifxes and gilded lamps
on slaves, came first. The priest with
his book came next, attended on each
side by boy with a lamp to illuminate
his pages. He sang the service as he
stumbled over the uneven stones of
the street. The body, under pail,
carried by four men. who were at
tended by a knot of others for their re-
lief. followed the priest, and then, in
long parallel lines came the friends
and relatives of the deceased, with
lamps interspersed among them. to the
number of about two hundred. The
heavy lava portal of the cemetery by
the sea-shore bears the inscription:
DO not be deaf to the voice that tells
you all is illusion except death" Here
all the lamps save two were pulled out
by the boys, and most of the mourners
turned on their heels, and, with fresh
cigars between their lips, returned to
the city.
Ten or twelve of us, however, ac-
companied the chief mourner within
the gates. A man with a sack of lime
on his shoulder and a pipe in his
mouth. walking with the arrogance of
one proud without cause, preceded the
coffin as it was lifted from iron stair
case to staircase until we reached the
particular niche in the high ''cOlum-
barium' which was to receive it. Then
it was set on the ground, the lid was
removed, and the man with the lime
emptied the contents of his sack over
the deceased woman, methodically
spreading and pressing it until moth
ing was visible of her except the small,
well-shod feet He kept his pipe in his
mouth during this operation. The
chief mourner, while infinitely watch
ing the process attendant upon the
burial of his mother, found time to
light a cigarette and chat with his
friends, and the two remaining acolytes
grinned and played tricks by holding
their lamps SO that curious shadows
futtered over the dead woman and the
lime-man- At length the latter looked
up with an interrogative grunt: ''Are
you satisfied, senor?' Perfectly" re-
piled the chief mourner.
The lid was replaced, the coffin was
run theoretically into its appointed
groove, and all was ended Twenty
four hours ago the deceased was alive
and well; twenty-four hours hence she
will be half cremated.

TO MAKE GOOD CROPS.


Fair Yield of Grain.
In the making of good crops three
things are essential These are a
good soil thoroughly prepared; good
seed carefully planted in good season.
and thorough cultivation, given at the
proper time. The growth and yield
of the crops are largely dependent
upon these three items, and a failure
of either one will affect the yield to a
greater or less extent With the rich
soil the elements of plant growth are
furnished, the preparation places it in
a good condition to be taken up and
used by the growing plants, and in adj
dition aids materially to secure a bet

ed in well-prepared soil not only
terminate in a shorter time, but there
will be less of the seed that viii fail
