ATTEMPTED JAIL DELIVERY.

Seattle.

Seattle.
SEATTLE, September 5.-This morning
as Jailor Fargon was passing through the
corridors of the County Jail, prisoner
named Davis, under indictment for
highway robbery, threw red-pepper in
his eyes. The jailor was then seized by
two other prisoners, while Barney Mar
tin, third prisoner, attempted to
cut his throat with razor. Fargon's
cries brought Officers Shehan and Sulli-
van to his aid. Davis, in an attempt to
escape, was shot in the shoulder and
arm, and probably fatally wounded.
Clark, another prisoner, escaped, but
was recaptured. Jailer Fargon's right
hand was nearly severed from the arm
by cut from the razor in Martini hands.

New YORK, September SIN an inter-
view upon his arrival here today, Legi-
time, the deposed President Of the Re-
public Of Hayti, gave the following his
tory of events in Hayti during the past
year: son October 7, 1888, was elected
President of the provisionary govern
-ment of Hayti. Everything was done
fairly and squarely in my election, but
intriguing spirits in the North accused
me of fraud and cheating, and General
Thelemaque came down with an army to
declare himself the desired President of
the North and South. l. of course. re-
sisted his attempts, and about week be-
fore the general election my troops and
those of the North under ThelemaQue
had an engagement and Thelemaque was
killed. l did not conspire for his assas-
ination. He was killed in battle, but my
enemies in the North termed Thele-
maque's death deliberate assassination
on my part and kept up cry against me.
We had heard that four deputies from
the North we're on board the steamer
Haytien Republic with evil designs, and
of course it was prudent for us to seize
them. The seizure of this vessel was en-
tirely mistake-a mistake FOR which we
were sorry, and this was evinced in the
speedy manner in which we turned her
over to her owners, together with large
indemnity. | was duly elected Pres
ident of Hayti on December II,
1888. My election was formal and
regular. War, you might say, was
begun at this period, and soon after my
accession to power, circumstances and
my rights and my peoples rights forced
me 10 engage in it. the war mas been y
bloody one and of long duration. Hip
polyte came down from the North,
sweeping destruction before him and
spilling blood in most shameful and
diabolical manner, and I can assure you
that the loss of 30 many lives panied
me. Finally. finding that the increasing
number of the northern army threatened
my southern country with destruction, I
decided that the wisest and most proper
course for me to pursue was to resign
and retire quietly and peacefully from
the country. Twas not forced to leave

THE LONDON STRIFE.
The Situation Some w hat improved.
But Not Settled Yet.

LONDON, September 5.-There was
break in the ranks of the employers this
morning. Five wharfngers agreed to the
mems terms. Upon their wharves work
is now going on to the full capacity. At
other wharves the men have congregated
in large numbers ready to 60 to work at
moments notice, the wharfingers being
all reported ready to make terms with the
strikers. The aspect of affairs along the
Thames is much livelier than for weeks
past. Men who obtained work contrib
ute one days pay to the relief fund.
John Burns declares that the dockmen
have given the dock companies crush
ing blow between wind and water.
Australia has sent $4,000 to aid the
strikers.
The dock companies have again called
upon the police to protect the men at
work. The ship owners have made an
other appeal for permission to unload
ships themselves, but met with curt re-.
fusals. 1t is estimated that 1000 men
are at work.

MANY disease germs enter through an

The nose was made for breathing, and the

dust, disease germs and various impurities,
while the air il warmed and tempered for
the lungs. But when the mouth IL left open,
dust, dirt and disease rush down into the
lungs, and, fastening there, develop and de-
stroy the whole system.

turbance which must be overcome before
cold bathing will be admissible.

Taking 1000 pounds. the compare
tive value of good hay, oat straw and
wheat straw can be determined from
the following table:
With view to supplementing grair

win view to experimenting grain
crops. and, indeed. to displacing them,
somewhat it is more my purpose In
this article to call attention to the bet
ter class of forage crops Drilled corn,
known as corn fodder, German millet,
Kafir corn and the different kinds OF
sorghum make excellent forage, and
some of them, on light work, complete
substitutes for grain food.
1 have found especial advantage in
the cultivation of early amber for for
age To feed green, to best advan-
tage, it should be planted every two or
three weeks convenient to the barn. It
will be ready for use about the time il
is seeding, and can be fed to great
profit through the entire season. feel
that can not too earnestly commend
early amber. not only as an excellent
forage crop, but a partial substitute for
grain as well.
As dry forage, farmers must be a
little caution about curing. One sea-
son / lost sixty wagon-loads by allow
ing it to stand too long before cutting.
Possibly each man had best expert
ment for himself on this point taking
advantage of my mistake in waiting
until the seed had we'll formed. I
would suggest as. probably. the best
time for curing. just as it gets into full
bloom. Fodder corn and Kaffir corn
can doubtless wait until farther ad-
vanced.
These crops should be drilled in
rows about three feet apart, with the
seed near enough to each other to pre-
vent large growth Of stalk. The dis
lance must be determined by the char
acter of the land. The object is to
minify the stalk. as large growth be-
comes too fibrous and hard.
The main objection urged by farmers
to the crops / am advocating is the
amount of waste. as In the case of oat
straw. Farmers who do not intend to
supply themselves with good cutting
machine ought not to expect any thing
but manure from such crops. A good
straw and forage cutter will pay for
itself on an ordinary farm in one sea-
son. 1t is much better to invest a little
money in a machine than great deal
in constant waste. On the larger farms
power machine can be attached to
the same engine that runs the gin, and
enough forage cut on rainy days to
supply the farm without apparent loss
Of time.
On smaller farms any of the inn
proved machines will do rapid and good
work, run by hand, and save largely
in preparing food rations for the farm
teams. Forage crops and hay will
greatly help the matter of cheap, nu-
tritious stock food. j. Northen, in

The Hostetter Stomach Bitter People
Score Another Point.
In the United States Circuit Court for the
Southern District Of New York, Judge Ship
man handed down an opinion few days
ago in the suit Of the owners Of the trade
marks covering Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
against Arnold Theller and Cornell Theller,
the compounders located on Vesey street,
New York City, in which it was decided
that, although the defendants made use Of
their own names on the labels af{ixed to the
bottles containing bitters prepared by them,
yet as they were evidently designed to imi-
tate the Hostetter labels, they were In
fringers, and perpetual injunction was
granted and an accounting Of damages or
dered, together with the costs Of the suit
1t is the evident intention of the Hostetter
people to protect their valuable trade mark
against all infringers.

Forage Crops.

Farmers at the Soutn rely TOO mucn
upon grain for stock food; such diet is
concentrated, and given in abundance
is not healthful. Furthermore, it is
expensive, and the policy, no doubt,
explains in some degree the large ex-
pense account among farmers. Espe-
cially is this true Of corn. Farm teams
would be in much better condition as
to health and efficiency if they were
given much less corn and more oats.
Oats are not SO heating as corn, and
they furnish more of the flesh-making
elements.
Farmers will do well to hunt out
cheaper food products, especially il
the general conditions of the farm stock
are to be improved thereby. Oats can
be grown at very little cost under
favorable circumstances. and they fur
nish an abundant grain and forage
crop. must believe farmers are maxi
ing a mistake to abandon fall sowing.

Sheaf oats. cut into short length by q
good Ross machine, will make ex-
celent food for farm teams at much
less cost than corn, with the limited
amount of forage it furnishes. For
the purposes we are now discussing,
oats should not be allowed to become
fully mature. as much Of the value will
be wasted by scattering and the dead
ness of the straw. The amount of oat
