Driving Hens.

When a woman has q hen to drive into the
coop she takes hold of her skirts with both
hands, shakes them quietly at tie delinquent
and says: "Shoo, therel" The hen takes one
look at the object 10 assure herself that il is
a woman, and then stalks ma iestically into
the coop. \ man doesn't do 1t In that way.
He goes out doors saying: ats singular no
body can drive hen but me!' and picking
up stick of wood. hurls it at the offending
biped, and yells: Get in there, you thief -
The hen Immediately loses her reason and
dashes to the other end of the yard. The man
plunges after her. She comes back with her
head down, her wings out, and followed by
a miscellaneous assortment Of stove wood,
fruit cans, clinkers, and n very mad man in
the rear.
Then she skins under the barn, and over a
fence or two, and around the house back to
the coop again; all the while talking as only
an excited hen can talk, and all the while
followed by things convenient for throwing,
and by a man whose coat Is on the saw buck,
whose hat is on the ground, and whose per
spiration is linitless By this time the other
hens have come out to take q hand In the de-
bate, and help dodge missiles: the man vows
that every hen on the place shall be sold at
once, puts on his hat and coat and goes down
town. The woman comes out, goes right To
work and has every one Of those hens housed
and counted inside Of two minutes

POLISH CHURCH RIOT.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Oct. 23-The excite
ment today at Plymouth over the chnrch
riot continued at fever heat. All last
night crowds were gathered in the vicinity
of the disputed buildings. At late hour
Detectives Holland and Roberts, armed
with writs, applied at the parsonage Tor

threats of violence if they attempted
forcible entrance. This morning the par
ties IN the building notified the detectives
That they might enter They were eS-
cOrted through the building and were
shown perfect arsenal of guns and pis-
tolls III the hands of six desperate looking
Polanders. The officers were then taken
TO the door and informed that the besieged
party intended to hold the fort at all haZ-
ards. The detectives were convinced that
they could take the building only by
bloodshed and they therefore gave up the
tight for the present and are contenting
themselves with watching the building
The Polanders had a hearing today on
the charge of assaulting an officer in the
discharge of his duty. Martin Wilkes the
leader. was fined $2S and William Zobeski
ana Frank Lizawiski were fined $40 each.

NORTHERN PACIFIC EXTENSIONS
The Officials in Quebec to Consult with
Dominion Authorities

NEW YORK. Oct. pa Quebec special
says: President T. F. Oaks of the North
ern Pacific railroad and the gentlemen &C
companying him decline to talk about
their mission to Quebec, but allege that
the whole party is here on private bust
ness. A prominent railway man who was
with them all yesterday declares that
their visit is likely to be fraught great i'm
portance to the province of Quebec.
Premier MERCER. whose guests they
a few days since that most
important railway legislation would be
submitted to the legislature at the forth
coming session, and a leading politician
declares that its basis was agreed upon.
1t is known that the Northern Pacific de-
sires shorter route to Europe. The st.
Lawrence is the shortest route, but the
Grand Trunk and its connections east of
Chicago do not furnish short enough
land line.
Charters for links of railway in Ontario
and Quebec to shorten the present route
which the Crank Trunk railway had neg
lected to make have been obtained by the
Northern Pacific in the name of other par
Ties. and Gaspe in the Gulf..of st. Lawrence
may soon be made winter port. At all
events the Northern Pacific is determined
to havs shorter eastern connections than
the Canadian Pacific, and is said to be
about purchasing the Temiscodata Rail-
way from the Riviere du Loup to Edmund
ston, New Brunswick.
The nature of the alleged agree
ment between Premier Mercier and
the Northern Pacific people is not
yet made public, but will doubtless
involve a very large grant for a
short line through the interior of the
province to Quebec, then crossing on the
proposed ST. Lawrence bridge. Color is
lent this report by the fact that Mayor
Langelier, who advocates their cause in
was present with the company's senior
counsel at the interview with the premier
of Quebec.
MIR. Levery, lawyer Of st. Paul, has
been here several weeks past in the inter-
esJs of the Northern Pacific.

HERCIJIEAN STRENGTH

Continually on the strain. or overtaxed
at intervals. is far less desirable than or
binary vigor perpetuated by rational diet
and exercise, and abstention from excess.
Professional pugilists and athletes rarely
attain extreme old age. As ordinary vigor
may be retained by wise regard for sani-
tary living, and for protection against
disease which timely and judicious medi-
cation affords, so also it may be lost
through prolonged sendentary labor unin-
terrupted mental strain, and foolish eating
and drinking, the chief and most immedi-
ate sequence of all four being dyspepsia.
For this condition thus, or in any way in
duced, and nerve power, Hostetters
Stomach Bitters is the primest and most
genial of remedies. Not only Indigestion,
but loss of flesh, appetite and sleep are
remedied by it. Incipient malaria and
rheumatism are banisned, and kidney.

LEWEs AGAINST THE PuLLMANs.

Topeka, Kan. Oct. 23.-Attorney Gen.
eral Kellogg has returned from Washing
ton. where he argued the motion to ad-
vance on the docket of tho United States
supreme court the case brought against
the Pullman Palace Car company to COM
pei the payment of taxes levied in this
state. The case reached the supreme
court on bill of complaint
upon which an injunction was
obtained restraining the col
lection of taxes levied on the property of
the Pullman company in large number
of Kansas counties for the year 1885,
which taxes have never been paid and can
not be until final judgment and decree
is obtained in the court to which the COM
pany appealed. The attorney general
asked to have the case advanced on the
docket for the reason that the collection of
the taxes is an important matter, affect
ing the revenues Of the state and of
several municipal and political divis-
ions thereof: also because similar
taxes levied for 1887 and 1883 have been
staid by temporary injunction, which will
remain in force until the higher tribunal
decides the original case. Notice was re-
ceived today that the hearing of the case
has been advanced to December H. The
valuation of the company's property as
sessed by the state board of railroad as
SCISSORS for 1886 is SIG. 246. Sc, and the
amount of taxes leyied on the property is
over 5000. The levy for 1887 is over sc, 900
and 1883 was the same.

gate output of the twenty-one mills was
1666S0 barrels against 16S 900 barrels the

ponding time in 1855. a declining wheat
market has had the effect of pretty much
putting a stop to trading in -four, and
millers are giving their chief attention to
filling old orders. Flour prices are quot
ably lower, some parties making more of
a reduction than others. The shipments
of -four were very heavy last week. exceed
