About fifteen years ago became quite en-
thusiastic in regard to introducing pond lilies
into my grounds. Having a piece Of low
land where the water remained nearly up to
the surface all summer. and near a creek
from which more water could be obtained il
needed, took out 200 loads of muck as a
beginning, using it Tor composing with
barnyard manure A near neighbor having
caught the muck fever,"I allowed HIM to
send his teams and take out LOCO loads; this,
with my own excavations, gave me very
nice pond two to three feet deep, fifty feet
wide and nearly 200 long. l first planted
nelumbium luteum, which was a great sue
cess, and the third year hundreds of plants
bloomed, much to my own qualification and
my neighbors' who visited my lily pond.
Other varieties and species were introduced,
and began to feel pretty sure that had at
last struck one family Of plants that needed
no coddling, but could take care Of them
selves, requiring no fertilizer, hoeing, weed
ing, stalking nor busting with poisonous com
pounds for destroying their insect enemies.
But enemies came, and worked SO slyly and
silently that they were not even suspected Of
being around until the glory Of my lily pond
had disappeared, then it was discovered that
muskrats were feasting on the tubers Of the
nelumbium. but did not trouble those Of the
common water lily tnymphpa odorata). The
latter remains il great numbers and my pond
is well stocked with it, but OF other species
not one plant remains. Being thankful for
small favors, shall love and cling to the
little water ny .nph so long as she clings to

a naughty leader Of city choir. on his

practicing the fish scales as he made his way

Some months ago The National Car Builder
mentioned that prominent western railroad
company, having instituted an inspection of
all the trainmen for the detection of coior
blindness. it was found that one of the oldest
passenger engineers could not read or write.
The result Of this discovery was that the man
was taken of the road at once, and notified
that he could have switch engine to run.
Instead of accepting this oblique promotion,
he asked and received leave of absence for
three months. Then he went home, got the
assistance of a teacher, and began laboiing
to acquire knowledge of reading and writ
ing. This was done so vigorously that at the
expiration Of his leave he wrote Il very re-
specially penned letter to the master me
chanic, intimating that he was ready 10 take
his engine -Boston Budget.

mon in the human being and in certain q the
domestic animals, especially cattle. About
one-foursh Of al deaths occurring In The nn-

ard nearly one-hak Of the entire pcpulAfson

!, the same in nature in animals ard in man
and has the same cause. It has eesn proved
beyoud q doubt that living germ, called the
subercle bacillus, Is the cause and the only
cause Of tuberculosis. II does not SEEM nee

.srtiou Is based. for the observation trss
made by Robert Koch in lssa has been con-
6rmsd % often and 30 completely that it no"
constitutes one Of the most absolutely demon
stratsd facts in medicine. tuberculosis may
Affect any organ Of the body, but most fre
uueutly first involves the lungs. When the
living germs find their way into the body they
multiply there, il favorable conditions fog
their growth exist, and produce small new
rrowths or nosiules ltuberclesl, which tend &c
soften The discharges from these softened
tubercles. containing the living germs, arr
thrown OF from the body. In pulmonary
tuberculosis these discharges constitute, u
part, the expectoration. The germs thua
thrown of do not grow outside the living
human or animal body, except under srti-
ficial conditions, although they may retain
their vitality and virulence for long periods
of time, even when thoroughly dried. Al
tuberculosis can only result from the action
Of these germs, it follows from what
has Just been said that when the disease
is acquired it must result from receiving
into the body the living germs that
have come from some other human being or
animal affected with the disease. 1t has been
abundantly established that the disease may
be transmitted by meat or milk from the
tubercular animal The milk glands in mich
cows often become affected with the disease
when their lungs are involved, and the milk
from such animals may contain the living
germs and be capable Of producing the disease.
Among stall fed dairy cows 20 per cent. or ~
per cent. are sometimes found to be affected
with the disease. Tubercular animals are
also frequently killed for food, their flesh
sometimes containing the germs, and If not
thoroughly cooked is capable Of transmitting
ths disease. Boiling the milk or thoroughly
cooking the meat destroys the germs.

THE WRONG MAN.
A New London Boss Laborer Arrested in
New York for Murder That
He Didn't Commit.

New York. Jan. 3-Pasquale Mostare,
Italian boss laborer OF New London, Conn,
where is gang is employed in railroad build
ing, came TO New York to make New Years
calls. He telegraphed to his friend and
countryman, Francesca Delanzo, better
known in the Italian colony on the west
side as Frank Bell, to meet him at Bleecker
and Carmine streets at sundown, that they
might go the rounds together.
They did meet, and Bell took him TO see
young woman named Julia McCabe, who
lives with her mother and sister Bridget at
l Varick place They were there after |
o'clock in the morning, when there was a
figst on the stoop between some New Years
callers, and Bell shot Eugene Boyle and
wounded him mortally. He ran away
The police seized the New Londoner, found
a pistol, loaded and not discharged, upon
him, and charged him with the shooting.
The pistol and its six cartridges, all un-
used, were laid before Justice Duffy, in the
jefferson Market court, and upon this
weighty evidence, with the unsupported as
sertion of the police that he did the shooting,
the judge committed the prisoner. Mean
while the real murderer is making the most
of his chance to escape
