 AUBURN, N. r., October 9-Judge Day decided the Electrical execution law constitutional.
 SOUTH BEND, Ind, October 9.-The magnificent store-house of Glenn Stude- | baker, which cost about three hundred thousand dollars was almost entirely destroyed by fire this morning. The residence was one of the largest and cost Hest, and furnished in the richest style throughout. Studebaker was absent. He is member of the International Congress and was to have entertained that body in this home on the 18th inst. None of the family except Mrs. Stude- baker and her grandchild were at home. The fire started in closet under the stairway, by spontaneous combustion f some old rags, and the flames spread all over the building in a terribly short time. The servants had narrow escape, and Mrs. Stakeholder herself was found on the terrace almost insensible, and dangerously burned, clasping her grand child in her arms, Owing to a feeling of security from fire, Stakeholder carried but S25,CO0 insurance.
 SAVANNAH, October 9.-The Tyler and Lower hydraulic presses, five cotton ware houses, and 4,500 bales of cotton, were burned this morning. Loss s4OO,- coo.

and quieted noisy hound that was on
guard on the stone hearth.
"Shet up, Fan! faint nobody but
frien's. Feyther! where be YEP" There
was no answer. Lou saw that her
fathers rifle was gone. Hes out or
still hunt agin. Will We hev drink,
Scth?"
Seeing that he had beerl drinking all
the evening, this was hardly neces.
sary compliment, but the blind fiddler
said he wouldn't mind. "Walkin' he'd
made him dry" Lou dropped on hel
knees and lifted one of the Hat stone Of
the hearth aside. Then she brought
out a stone jug from the cavity. A
corn cob served as a stopper to this
rude decanter.
Its curious whar that cups got
to-" she said peering into the inn
promptu wine cellar. "Yere It's" and
she drew out battered tin cup, which
she half filled from the jug. The fiddler
drank it off with an expressive gulp.
When she had restored the jug to its
nook, she led Seth to the ladder in the
corner of the room. "Shin up" she
said briskly, "an' I'll call We in the
mornin' for yer grub. Good night,
Mister Rawley."
1t was month after this that a
young man nattily mounted on a bay
roadster, pulled rein at the cabin door,
and was noisily saluted by the watchful
Fan.
Call off your dog. Hello there!"
he shouted. Lou heard him but took
her own time to answer.
"Hell0!n he continued to shout, then
as Lou appeared at the door, 81

At that moment Lou was aware

UNCLE EREN's CONSERVATISM.

Uncle Eben careful in all that he said,
He was never dead sure nor dogmatic;
If he was as mad as hornet at bay,
He couldn't be pronounced and emphatic.
He thought IL was best to go sure and go SLOW
And always take time for his whiskers to
grow,
And his blame or his praise would end with this
phrase:
II dunno as know; dunno"
When his neighbors grew wild in political
strife,
And asked his opinion about it
II dunno but 1t is, dunno butt amt,
He would slowly declare, But doubt IT,"
Then he'd pause long time scratch his head and
lay low,
For it took quite while for his language to
flow,
But at length he would say in a calm kind of
way;
~ dunno as know; dunno"
You might pelt him with truth, you could stone
him with facts,
You could crush him with strong demonsra.
ton,
And teachers and preachers and lawyers could
talk,
He would have just the same hesitation;
He would still scratch his head, undoubtedly
and slow,
But no flush OF conviction his face would DER
flow.
But slowly he'd say, in his old chronic way:
II dunno as know; dunno"
81 dunno as know, dunno as know"
The refrain OF his song OF existence,
But we loved the old feliow-after he died
And his soul wandered of In distance.
Then We thought were we wiser aud less fond
OF show,
Less weak and less proud OF our work here
below,
Like him we would say every day. every day:

CARE OF REFRiGERATORS,

How to Keep them Neat, Clean and Sweet
Points for Housekeepers.
During the warm weather the refrig-
orator comes in for good share of at
tention. Aside from its usefulness, a
good refrigerator is a nice piece OF fur
niturc, and an ornament to any home,
yet it takes but very little neglect to
render it any thing but ornamental. AS
a piece of furniture it should be cared
for as conscicntiously as any other OF
the household furnishings, yet few
housewives recognize this fact 1t is
usually slowed away in some out-of-
the-way, inconvenient place, and the
only care it gets is an occasional clean
ing out of the inside.
Keep it in cool, dry place, in the
dining-room, unless a pantry is more
convenient, but it is not advisable to
keep it in cellar, as is often done, for
there are few cellars that are not some
what damp, and when put in such
places it does not take very long to
ruin the refrigerator.
Always keep the ice-box clean as far
as you can, and never allow ice to b
placed in it that has at first been
washed off. Insist that your iceman
wash his ice ere putting in the box, and
it will be much easier to keep clean.
Never allow the ice to be wholly gone
ere getting in more, for twice the
quantity Of ice will be required to cool
the refrigerator than ordinarily. Never
put anything warm in the ice-chest, but
lay aside in q cool place until cold.
Never put in anything that is not per-
fectly fresh, and remove anything bear
ing the least indications of faint, for
butter or milk absorbs anything of this
kind very readily. 1t is much better
where there is a separate compartment
for the butter and milk, as they keep
much better when placed by them
selves, and retain their original flavor,
which they seldom do when occupying
a place with other eatables.
Once a week, at the least the refrig-
orator should receive a thorough
cleaning. Take out all tho victuals
and place in cool place, covering
them over to protect Thorn from dust.
If there is any ice in it take it out and
roll in several thicknesses of old flannel
or heavy bagging, and put in a cool
place. Remove all the shelves and any
adjustable apartments, and wash in
warm ammonia water, using a good
soap. Many of the stains and black
marks seen on the zinc shelves can be
removed by securing with pulverized
bath brick and soap. Clean wooden
shelves by scrubbing with brush and
some good soap. When all is thorough
ly washed, place them in the air to dry.
Wash out the inside of the refrigerator
and dry as well as possible and let air.
When thoroughly dry. replace the
shelves ETC., put in the ice close and
let remain until the inside is cool, then
replace the victuals. 1t is good plan
to place in one corner a small dish of
charcoal. to arrest any impurities that
might arise. The woodwork of most
refrigerators may be kept looking nice
by wiping 1t over each week with a
damp cloth wrung out in clear water
