Stalking Tomato Plants,

Whether it pays to stake tomatoes Is a
question that is each year discussed. A
Massachusetts, correspondent in Forest
and Garden Says on this subject:
In the home garden it is well to stop
the growth of the vine by pinching, to
encourage early fruit; but for late fruit
let them run at will Thinning out the
laterals to give free circulation of air is
good practice, and helps to prevent rot,
but the fruit often scalds If exposed to
full sunshine. The best specimens Of
fruit will be found on the well fed vines
that have abundant room. Plants of
Dwarf Champion can be set less than
three feet apart, but the hustler growers
would find themselves crowded at this
distance

Jim Bowie Quoted Them.

There were three Bowie brothers.
James. Stephen and Rein. They were
all fighting men," as dangerous indi-
but were not DULLES. They never COM
menced difficulty, and in the ordinary
intercourse with their neighbors were
quiet and courteous, but always ready
to defend the weaker side An old Meth
odist minister, who died years ago, one
early days of the southwest, also told me
story Illustrating this characteristic.
81 was holding a meeting at Church
Hill, Miss, in $780," said the venerable
preacher, "when a lot of roughs, fiat
boatmen and others disturbed the con-
there would be serious trouble. So. just
before the evening service was to begin,
l called together several gentlemen to
know what should be done if the trouble
was renewed. Among those present was
q small man whom had not met before
and about whom there was nothing re-
markable except his low, soft voice and
peculiar ringed gray eyes. 1 don't think
there will be any more trouble, parson,'
he said. L will stay tonight and see
you through l thanked him and in the
hustle forgot to ask my friend who he
was. The congregation was just begin
ming the first hymn when bury ruffian,
half drunk, came staggering down the
aisle of the church and hating in front
of the pulpit gave an Indian war whoop
In second the gentleman with the I'M
usual eyes had him by the collar with
one hand and an enormous knife raised
above his head in the other. Sit down,
you drunken devil, or by - will cut
your throat from ear to carr
why, who are you? said the other,
in shaky tones
Ny name IS James Bowie, was the
answer, and If / hear another whimper
out of you or any member of your gang,
l will waste no words, but come back 10
you. Now, go And the man went
without word, and Bowie then joined
in the singing Of the hymn with an air
that was edifyiny in the extreme. There
was no more trouble that night, nor ever
after. The roughs had enough. Wash

A College Gymnasium.

The first season of our foot ball PLAYERS
ends in blaze of glory, not that there
was much to brag of in the easy
victory of Tuesday but because of seven
games they have lost but one and that
was recaptured from Dickinson by more
than double the score made by that col
lege. Captain Irvine and all the players
deserve D great deal of praise for making
their way to the front with rush and
friends Of the college and Of manly sport
should give them every encouragement
70 hold their ground next year, and ad-
vance the athletic reputation of Frank
lin and Marshall. A lively interest in
the game has been awakened among
our citizens, who were quick to appre-
ciate the demands it makes upon quail
ties that make men. The ideal foot
ball player is cool under all circunl-
stances, quick TO decide, and per-
severing and plucky in action.
There is no denying that the
game Is rough, but it is by
3 10 means as terrible as it seems
( md the statistics of serious injuries in
hot ball would fall far below the base
ball record OF smashed hands and other
( damage. The plea for gymnasium

warmly seconded and approved by the
pgO1essors Of the college. We renew the
opxgestion that a building should be

WindOm's Report.

The report of the secretary of the
treasury is a much more able docu-
ment than the message of President
Harrison. He thinks that he has found
. solution of the silver question and out
lines plan based on the repeal of the
law compelling coinage of silver, and
the issuing of treasury notes against de-
posits of silver bullion at its market
value. These notes are also to be paya-
BILE In gold at the option of the govern
ment or in silver dollars at the option
of the holder.
Secretary Window devotes much space
to the explanation and defense of his
plan which demands careful attention
and will no doubt receive 1t from both
sides of Congress. Comment upon it
must be deliberate and thoughtful, but
1t may be said that flnancier with a
pet plan is always to be watched with
anxious care if not distrust. The state
ments and suggestions regarding the
revenues and expenses, tariff reform, ex-
ports and imports are interesting and
forcible and his views as to bond pur-
chases will please the bond holders.

Wife Kissing In Public.

From the san Francisco Examiner.
Has man righ. to kiss his wife in n
theatreY That is the burning question of
the hour in Kansas City, whore the
authorities have decided in the negative.
DR.. A. NJ. Goldstein and his wife pre-
pared a test-case, and afler some con-
troversy were escorted outside by police
men, The subject is "A delicate one, but
we are inclined to think the Kansas City
decision is right. 1t is in line with that
great tendency of modern progress which
Is steadily ditlerentiating the fields of do
mestic life and public recreation. When
Mrs. Trollope inspected this country fifty
years ago she saw mothers nursing their
babies in the theatre, and fathers sitting on
the edges of the boxes in their shirt
sleeves, enjoying the homely comfort OF
the family hearth. The crying infant a
few years agowas feature of every dra-
matte entertainment; but now although il
is not entirely extinct, it is greatly miti-
gated by the new canon of good form,
which dictates that children shall be left al
home until they have passed the ordeal of
teething.
The practice of kissing one wife in the
theatre cannot be justified on the ground
OF necessity. Supposing the performance
to last two hours and half, and half am
hour To be consumed in going ana return
ing. DIR. Goldstein had twenty-one hours
in the day which he could have devoted to
that agreeable ceremony. That ought To
be enough for any man after the honey
moon, during which time he ought not 10
be at the theatre at all. III he had been
kissing another man s wife, the case
would have been different; but 10 kiss
one own wife ON such an occasion is an
obtrusive display Of good-fortune for the
mere sake OF osteniation, like wearing
diamonds at breakfast. II ought TO be
suppressed In the interest Of the peace oi
MUD OF the unmarried.

MINCE PIE.
How They Make IL In New England ana
Also In Old Ireland,

How They Make II In New England ana
Also In Old Ireland.
Tho following is recipe for mince pie
mixture, made after the fashion of the
danes of old New England: Get six
pounds of juicy beef, boil and chop fine.
II must be borne in mind that the meat
in boiling loses about half it's weight, 80
Tor three pounds after II is chopped fine
and cleared of gristle double the quantity
must be boiled, the liquor making good
stock. Chop fine two pounds of beef suet,
six pounds of tart apples, peeled and
cored, seed two pounds of raisius and wash
thoroughly two pounds Of currants, cut
one-half pound of oitron in thin strips and
mix all these ingredients together with
one tablespoonful of salt, ground cloves,
allspice and cinnamon each one ounce, and
mace and nutmeg each one-half ounce.
Put three quarts of cider over the fire with
three pounds of & sugar skim and pour
boiling hot through line straiper over the
mixed material; add one large cup OF New
Orleans molasses and the juice and grated
rind of one lemon. Stir well, and pack in
air-tight jars.
And here is an Irish recipe, which how.
ever, is not for dyspeptics: keepa beers
tongue in water four or five days boil till
tender, when cold chop fine, and two
pounds Of finely chopped suet, two pounds
of raisins, two pounds of currants, twelve
large apples minced fine, four pounds OF
sugar, the juice and pulp of two large
oranges and the grated rind of one; u cup
ful of raspberry or straw berry jam, three
fourths of a pound of cltron shaved fine,
enc cupful of ounce preserve, two table
spoonfuls of cinnamon and one of nutmeg,
Mix the mince meat with the syrup from
the sweet pickle jar, add a little brandy,
If desired, and the juice and grated rind OF
four lemons.

campaign. Wood has retained r. G. Camp

On Monday he made a complete state

stantiated by letters, kilograms and other
papers. Tho papers are what the public
have been clamoring for, and arc what
many expected would never be shown
They prove conclusively that the mos,
prominent Republican In the last campaign
was at the bottom of the forgery, and knew
all the particulars connected with the for
gerry long before II was made public. Mr.
Campbell refuses to make the papers pub

about the matter.
