ANARCHISTS TO ARM.
Paul Grottkau Says the People VIII
Take the Government by Force.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1O.-The Anarchist
orators to-day temporarily abandoned
their usual Sunday themes aud joined
forces with the leaders of the Secular
Union in denunciation of United States
Senator Blair and couple of laws ne
wishes to have enacted. One Of the
proposed statutes provides for enforcing
observance of Sunday as a day of rest,
and the other proposes a constitutional
amendment making it obligatory for the
public schools to teach the principles OF
the Christian religion.
The first speaker, Jens Christensen,
editor of the A,Geiter Zeitung, ridl-
culed religion in general and Chris
tianity in particular, and spoke of So
cialism as the only true doctrine for the
government of nations or individuals.
He was followed by E. A. Stevens, secre-
tsry of the National Secular Union. Mr..
Stevens declared that any man who at
tempted to force the people to believe IN
any religion or to observe the Saoeath
was public enemy.
Anarchist Paul Grottkau spoke IN
German, asserting that there was con-
spiracy of bishops, cardinals and cap
italists to force the discussion of rell'
gion, so as to smother the great socla
question. They also sought to train VI
the children in Superstitious slavery. he
warned them against this programme
for" said he, 1.-The time is at hand Whel
the people by force will take the gov
ernment into their own hands.

reinforcements of fire engines were
called out. The fire broke out in the
top floor, but made its way downward by
degrees. The firemen struggled foI
nearly an hour and a half before they
had il under control. The three upper
stories, where the greatest damage was
done, were occupied by silk manufac-
turers. Most of their stock was de-
stroyed. On the lower floors sausages
and pickles are made. There the havoc
was not so great. The. total loss was
roughly estimated at an early hour at
between 5000 and 800, 900.

WEST POINT TERMINAL.
An Attempt to Have Its Charter Forfeited
Falls Through.

RICHMOND, Va, Feb. 19.-Some weeks
ago petition was presented to State
Attorney General Ayres by Samuel
Dickson of Philadelphia and Charles L
De Costa of New York in behalf of un-
known stockholders presumably the
Norfolk and Western sRailroad begging
that proceedings be instituted in the
Circuit Court Of this city against the
Richmond and West Point Terminal and
Warehouse Company for forfeiture
of its charter. The grounds al
legged by counsel were that the
company had exceeded the provisions of
its charter. The Attorney General, in
a long letter to-day, declines to apply
for writ Of Qalo scarranto, without ex-
pressing an opinion upon the merits of
the case, but simply upon the ground
that action should be taken in King
William County, where the principal
Office of the company is located.

How Farm Horses Walk.

We recently called attention to the
fact that horses walk much faster in
theory" than in actual farm practice.
To show that much of what has been
written on this subject is visionary, we
quote correspondent of the Husband
man, who. has been doing some figuring:
Taking the average length of fur
row to be forty rods, the average width
twelve inches and the width of the land
two rods, team to plow an acre of
land, would have to travel eight and
three-f0urths miles. If they walked
four miles per hour, in ten hours they
would plow four and four-sevenths
acres; at three and one-half miles PEI
hour, three and three-sevenths acres;
at two miles per hour, two and two
'sevenths: at one and five-sixteenths
Uiles per hour, one and one-half acres.
Now think it is generally conced-
ed by all practical farmers that it is a
firs Hrclass farm team whatever their
win 'ght may be that can plow in good
swan Il land burrows twelve inches wide
and S even inches deep, one day will
anoth, ", during the spring and fal

seeding, one and one half acres per
day. And what practical plowman
does not know that team driven to a
plow at the rate of four miles an hour
would throw a furrow atop of the pre-
ceeding one, and if it met fast stone
or hidden obstruction would entirely
demoralize the whole business?
IF we can increase the walk of our
horses to the plow to one and half
miles per hour for ten hours, and there
fore plOw one and ive-sevenths acres
per day, it will be great advantage
over past experience. 1 believe there
are few farmers that would not be
satisfied if their teams narrowed six
teen acres in ten hours with a forty
tooth harrow covering six feet at each
passage across the field. Yet, to do
that. his team would have to walk but
two and one-fourth miles per hour.
Imagine the team doubling the pace,
thereby narrowing thirty two acres.

Prevention of Cruelty to Animals

He Was Vastly Superior.

The historian was in a country viii
lage near to Boston not long ago
when certain couple attracted his at
tention. The wife was trim, rather
attractive little body, with an erect
ness of carriage that showed above the
generally slouchy figures of her neigh
bors. 1t was learned that this was
due to her riding horseback, for which
she was locally famed as girl and
won two prizes at the village fair.
Her father had indulged her in few
OF the privileges of an only daughter,
among which was also season or two
1T private school.
But her husband was a character.
He, too, was somewhat more intelli-
gent than his neighbors. He never
took prize, but was quite eligible
for one for laziness. As his neigh
bors expressed it, '.he was too lazy to
liven
They were poor, the wife long ago
having sold not only her horse but her
saddle. Yet the husband would not
work. The most he would do was to
help till the little garden that went far
toward supporting them. But the
oddest thing about the man was that
through the length and breadth of tho
village he was known as Vastly Su-
perior.''
This sobriquet was employed not in
lest but in practical earnest lis

About Sowing Oats.

AUVut OOW4uS OdbSs
The best time to SOW oats is from the
1st OF March to the 18th, corn stalk
ground being preferable if the ground
has been well worked the previous
year. Sowing broadcast and cultivating
it is very good; another good way is to
rake Off the old stalks, harrow we'll and
drill in one and one-half bushels per
acre: another good way, SOW two bush
els broadcast and plow them three
inches under, and harrow well. AS to
variety, the Texas red is the best for
yield, and as to quality. they weigh as
heavy as thirty five to forty pounds per
bushel. There is one point when the
red oats is superior to any other: and
that is for winter pasture. l had
thirteen-acre lot plowed Up after cut
ting my oats, plowed them under in
July, they came up thick and have
lived over winter, are growing nice
now, and think will make good crop
as they stand thick on the. ground.
Last winter they lived and made good
pasture until the first of January. The
thirteen acre lot made pasture for
twelve head of horses and colts, and
they improved up to January L. l con-
slider them worth as much for the pas
ture as the oats.-H. C. Hodges, of
Harper county, in Kansas Farmer.
