Baltimore Jake Wants Another Whaek at
the Boston Brute.
LITTLE Rock, ARK, July 1O.-The
Kilrain party passed through Little Rock
this afternoon. They were passen-
gers on the Iron Mountain from the
south en- route to st. Louis. The party
of sluggers'' consisted of Jake Kilrain,
Charley Mitchell, PONY Moore of En-
gland, MitcheIl's extraordinarily, DR..
Dougherty, Kirain g physician, and Pro-
lessor Mike Donovan, the man who threw
up the sponge which gave the fight to
Sullivan, and Kid Murphy, Kilrain g
bottIeholder-a very distinguished crowd
in pugilistic circles. There was
unite a crowd at the station
to see the vanquished bruiser.
When the train stopped there sat Mitch
ell who poked his handsome face out or
the window as sour as a green apple.
Pony Moore, having never been South
before, poked his white head out OF the
car window and took in the situation.
Finally Mitchell, followed by Moore,
Donovan and DR.. DOugherty alighted
from the train and repaired to the hotel
for dinner. Kilrain did not get out, but
kept his seat in the drawing-room of the

kept his hand over his nose as

facing the other way. Fifteen minutes
at the depot brought their Little Rock
visit to a close and the train pulled out
with the party seated around the
bruised slugger in the drawing-room.

An Extra session Of Congress.

WASHINGTON, July 10.-There is no
longer any reasonable doubt that there
is to be an extra session of congress be-
fore December. The only point which
may be said to be undetermined is the
date. The presidents private secretary
incidentally SAID to-day that he believed
an extra session had practically been
determined on. The president himself
was quite as specific in his statement to
Senator Washburne of Minnesota. The
difference was that the president sug-
gested to Mr.. Washburne that it would
DE expedient for him to return from Eu-
rope by the middle of October. 1t is
!eertafn, however, that congress will not
s be convened until after the representa-
tives from the new states have been
elected.

No,hine New from Hayti.

WASHINGTON, July 10--A dispatch
was received at the navy department to-
day from Admiral Gherardi at Port au
Prince saying that affairs at Hayti are
quiet, and that there is no fighting of
moment. He also reported there had been
no change in political situation since his
last report. Legitime holds Port au
Prince and Hippolyte remains outside of

Hayti longer than was intended, and the
department will relieve her as soon as
another vessel can be fitted out.

WASHINGTON, July 1O.-There is no
doubt that there has been a serious disa-
greement between the secretary of the
interior and Corp. Tanner, commissioner
of pensions, likely to result i'll the resig-
nation of the latter. 1t is certain that
Tanner g loose and questionable methods
of conducting his department have been
exceedingly distasteful to Secretary
Noble and the consequence was that the
surplus destroying commissioner was
brought up with a very sharp turn. Ex-
actly what did occur at the Ground up
is not known, but the Inference is that
Tanner got a lecture he will not soon for
get. 1t seems that he had been III the
habit of making certain cases Especial -
without authority and when taxed with
it by the secretary he pleaded guilty, but
asked to be excused on the ground of in
ability to refuse the requests of senators
and representatives. Tanner denied to
reporter that his resignation had been
requested and said that he and the
secretary could still live together.
1t is the general belief, however, that in
order to do so the corporal win have to
alter his programme considerably.

Sullivan Shows Up in Bad Shape with the
Marks of Ki1rain on HIM.
NEW ORLEANS, La, July 10.-Quite
crowd assembled around the steamship
Hudson this morning to see Sullivan and
party off, as it was believed he would
leave for New York on that vessel. It
appeared, however, than when applica-
ton was made for six berths to accom-
modate the party that only four could be
secured, and those included the cap
tain IS berth III his own stateroom. Null
doom, who managed the transportation,
decided not to accept the offered berths
and entered into negotiations with Mr..
Daniel HaIbarron, passenger agent for
the Southern Pacific line. The party
evidently intended to avoid going
through the state of Mississippi, where
1t was feared an arrest would be made,
and determined to go through Texas.
Sullivan and ClearY, who had been
Gushing up'' quite freely last night,
had not entirely recovered from the
effects of their dissipation, as was evil
dent from their swollen eyes and
general appearance. AT 1880 O'Clock
Jimmie McHale called on
CIeary at Sullivan's headquarters
on Rampant street and had brief con-
versation with him At its conclusion
Cleary babe him goodbye, saying he
would meet him in New York. AT 0:40
CLOCK Pat Duffy, one of the managers
of the mill, called, and soon thereafter
Sullivan, Muldoon, Duffy and anothi
party entered a carriage while Cleary too
a seat beside the driver. The party droN
off, their baggage having been sent to
the Southern Pacific depot few hours
before. The carriage was not driven to
the Southern Pacific depot at
the head of Elysian Fields street,
but it is believed went to the
Jackson street ferry in the upper
portion of the city and was there ferried
across the river in order to avoid observa-
ton. When Sullivan left his boarding
house his face betrayed still the marks of
Kilrain's handiwork. The party will
doubtless proceed to Houston, and thence
to Boston via st. Louis.

Another thing we have been ham
mering at for long time is the awful
waste upon our farms entailed by the
neglect, not only to save all the
solid excavations of our animals in the
most thorough manner, but by the al
most total loss, on the great majority
of our farms, of the liquid eXcrement.
This was probably equal to a total loss
of the solids, even in the times when
much lower scale of feeding was prac-
ticed than is now becoming common,
especially among our daiymen. But
where grain is regularly fed this loss
is very much increased, because the
urine of animals so fed is much richer
in plant food than upon grass and hay.
Professor Collier of the New York
State Experiment Station is at work
upon this question, and will undoubt-
eddy follow it up with his accustomed
energy and precision. In a commune
cation to the Rur0l Ne,g Yorker he
says: Recent careful experiments at
the station show the average market
value of the phosphorus, potash and
nitrogen in the solid dung of the COW,
fed upon mixed ration, to be nearly
four cents per day, while the value of
the liquid manure was over six cents
day, and together they were over sew
enty per cent of the market value of
the food fed" In this one sentence is
food enough for whole winters thought
for every dairy farmer in Vermont.
If our careful dairymen, complaining
all the time about the low price of
dairy products, are themselves response
bic for such terrible and continuous
loss as this, is it not time that they
wake themselves up to the serious fact,
and 60 at once about stopping such
waste?

with such hearty food as beans and oat
meal. The less people of sedentary
habits have to do with either of them
the better.
HAsTY CRITICIsM.-It is well tc
read carefully, and be sure that we
quite understand the statements Of
others, before we venture on criticism
of them. We referred lately, at some
length, to some sharp, though friendly
structures, in the Maine Farmer, upon
recent editorial noting of ours. The
Fdrmer headed its article, Facts
Good Enough" which carried the idea
that we were willing to excuse disre-
gard of truth in such matters. In max
ing our response we were, owing to the
destruction of our files by fire, unable
to refer to the exact wording of our
article; yet we were sure we had not
endorsed even exaggerated statements,
for we well know that exaggeration
weakens any cause. We have since
come upon the article in question, 1t
was upon ensilage, and we said: "Be-
cause men of unbalanced minds get
excited over ensilage, is no reason why
sober-mnded people should discard it,
or undervalue it. One would naturally
think, knowing as we all do, and as
editors have long been preaching, that
corn is the king crop of America, and
the slower worth for feeding twO-thirds
or three-quarters as much as good hay,
that we should all be extremely thank
full for good and cheap way of pre-
serving ii for winter feeding. We can
be abundantly thankful for this, with
out adopting extreme notions about it.
Take it on the oldest and soundest esti-
mates of its feeding value, and we have
abundant grounds for utilizing it to the
best advantage. If experience shows,
as it seems to show, that the silo is at
least one among the good ways, why
sheer at the silo because enthusiasts are
enthusiastic about it?" Now, Brother
Gilbert, what do you find here to make
you think we wanted any one to 90
beyond the facts? Was it in the above
remarks-or in another sentence,
where we said that it seems to us
that the eXaggerations of enthusiasts,
with more zeal than knowledge, have
been and are getting too much notice.?
This last is perhaps a matter of opinion
in which we might differ; but it is far,
very far, from any Endorsement of such
eXaggerations.
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1889-12-11

expressed as about three-fourths the
value of good hay" We find this esti-
mate repeated innumerable times in
the reports of farmers meetings in all
the New England states, IS given in
the state reports and in the agricultural
press. Now come the station reports
fully confirming this estimate as the
result of careful tests, while as for en-
silage, some of them do not hesitate to
rank it still higher, especially where it
is grown thinly enough to ear, and is
allowed to nearly reach maturity before
cutting. The last Massachusetts, Report
sums the matter up in the following
words: "The above partial abstracts
from our milk and creamery records
show that the fodder corn, corn slower
and corn ensiage, when fed pound for
pound of dry matter, in place of Eng
lish hay compare well, as far as the
quality and the quantity of the milk and
of the cream obtained is concerned.
There can be no doubt about the
fact, in the present condition of our
market prices of feed stuffs, that the
care and the expense required to Sc
cure a well-cured corn fod Ter and corn
stover or a well prepared corn ensilage,
as circumstances may advise, and to
offer them in an acceptable form, to
milch cows, will prove a well-paying in
vestment." 1t also notes that like re-
suits are established by similar tests in
Ohio and Iowa.

COCOANUT Biscuit. Take two cups
of prepared cocoanut, one cup of
powdered white sugar, two tablespoon
fuls of flour; mix these together with
the whites of two eggs. Roll the paste
out into biscuits and bake in quick
oven till pale brown. Care must be
taken in baking these biscuits, as they
are liable to get burned.
MINCED BEEFsTEAK ON ToAsT-A
favorite, and without doubt the best
way, to use cold beefsteak is to mince
it finely and put it to stewing for
fifteen minutes with quite little
water. If the beef has not been all
dried up by pounding and overlooking
the first day, add to the gravy a good
sized lump of butter, a small onion and
a teaspoon OF vinegar or catsup, and
serve it, smoking hot, on nicely Drowned
toast
SPANISH CREAM.-One-half box of
gelatine, one quart of milk, five eggs,
one cup of sugar, tlavoring. Soak the
gelatine IN the milk one hour, then
place it on the range, and when at a
boiling point stir in the well-beaten
yolks of the eggs and the sugar: when
it is boiling hot remove from the fire
and stir in the beaten whites of eggs
and tlavoring; pour in small moulds, so
that it can be served in dainty indi-
vdual dishes. This is very nice
dessert.
BAKED SWEET POTATOEs.-A de-
licious preparation for dinner is sweet
potatoes peeled and sliced, laid in a
dish suitable to send to the table, with
butter and pepper between the slices
and very little salt; the dish is then
filled with milk and busted over with
fine bread crumbs, these being dotted
with butter and seasoned with salt and
pepper; the potatoes will bake in
moderate oven in about three-quarters
of an hour; they are served in the same
dish in which they are baked, set upon
platter in the midst of folded napkin.
NEAPOLITAN CAKE.-One cup of
brown sugar three eggs, half cup of
butter, half cup of mOlasses, half a
cup of strong coffee, three cups of
-four, one teaspOOnful of baking pow
der, one cup of raisins and one of cur
rants, teaspoonful each of cinnamon,
cloves and mace; bake in ielly-cake
pans. For white part, take two cups
of sugar, one of butter, three of flour,
half cup of milk, teaspoontul of
b.king powder and the whites of four
eggs; bake i'll jelly-pans and put to-
gether alternately with dark, spreading
icing, favored with vanilla, between,
Ice the top.
A SAvoRY DISH Fragments of
meat and vegetables left from meal
may be so combined that savory dish
will be the result. If you have only
one or two spoonfuls of cold meat, a
few spoonfuls of parsnip and two or
three cold potatoes, chop the meat
finely, and the vegetables also, unless
they have been mashed; put them all
in a pan and season with salt and
pepper. To each pint of the mixture
add half gill of milk or cream, or if
you have none, of water, aud table
spoonful of butter. Cover the stew
pan and set it on the back of the stove;
let it cook slowly for half an hour
and serve very hot.

Wool, Wool, Wool.

A contemporary says that the reason
why the cotton manufacture in this
country is so much more prosperous
than the wooden manufacture is be-
cause we produce all the raw material
used in the first, but not in the last
And we see our agricultural contem-
poraries are all working, with the help
of able correspondents, to show how
profitable the keeping of sheep might
be made upon New England farms
especially those abandoned " and
" deserted ones, about which the city
press, even of New England itself,
knows so little and talks so absurdly.
Now we know very well how easy it
is to work out and prove, on paper,
that this, that or the other branch of
farming can be made to pay profits big
enough to set the tide of population
very rapidly back to the farm. But
these calculations are sometimes very
much like those made by young couples
who set out to build them a home.
They prove to demonstration that it
can be done for 81 ,500-and when the
bills are all in they find it has cost
$4,000. (And by the way, as we have
built several houses in our time, we
will just say in passing, for the benefit
of inexperienced readers, that the total
cost of plain house in New England
