There is this year in many places a
good crop of apples. Many of the
early sorts are going to waste. as they
sell for scarcely enough when teams
are busy, to pay for gathering and talk
ing to the city. But they are too valu.
able for feed to be allowed to lie on the
ground and rot There never was
wiser plan of managing this thing
than the old-fashionod one of
making the apple orchard a pig pasture
during the bearing season. After a
tree gets of size large enough to bear
what can DO grown under it is not
worth the labor of blowing and cultiya-
ton The pigs, if inclosed and left
without rings in their noses. will keep
the soil loose, and will at the same
time cover up their own droppings so
that they will not soil the fruit. There
is no stock to which small mess OF
apples daily is not an advantage. but
horses at hard work and milch cows
should be restricted to very few per
day. = PennsylUaniG Press

Uocrors In Ger....I,

A strange difficulty has arisen in Germany
with regard to the medical profession. It
seems that the public authorities are much
concerned on account Of the very great num-
Der of physicians and OF the ever increasing
lists of students in the medical faculty. Not
only does the government refuse to open new
schools, but also the landtag has shown itself
unwilling TO allow the credits necessary for
the doctors chairs at Halle and Magdeburg.
There are now in Germany, as in France,
many young men holding diplomas who have
no position, and who Lave in vain applied to
the state. Steps are therefore sought to be
taken which shall destoy the evil at its roots.

Cremation In England.

The discussion carried ON in several Of the
morning papers as TO whether, in connection
with the operation Of cremation, the funeral
service ought TO be read before or after
the body has been reduced to ashes, will
at least help to famiharize the public
with the idea of cremation. This, as
the perhaps too jocular Mr.. Haweis
observed in his otherwise excellent ser.
mon on the subject, is burning queS
tom" and many persons who, in their horror
of all that is not customary, shrink from the
idea of rapid and purifying destruction, may
be encouraged to take right view of the
matter by the reflection that the martyrs
were burned. 1t was Lord Palmerston, when
replying to deputation at the home office,
who first laid stress on this fact; and Lord
Shaftesbury, who headed the deputation, is
said to have been much impressed by it
What chiefly strikes the chancellor of Win
chester in the matter is that when a martyr
was burned at the stake the funeral service
was not read until after the flames had done
their work. But before the pyre was set
alight the funeral service could hardly have
been read, since the unhappy man was still
alive.-London Life.

Matrimonial 1nclinatIons Checked.

The pretty maidens employed in the Au-
gusta publishing houses are indulging their
taste for sport by playing with the love lorn
youths OF the sunny south. One of these
young men, who resides somewhere in
Georgia, on the line of Shermans march to
the sea, wrote a letter to Augusta ordering q
love bag advertised and saying that he had
matrimonial inclinations. One of the girls
wrote tender epistle in reply, in the course
of which she asked that he send description
of himself and his prospects Very soon a
letter came i'll return in which he said that
he was good looking, but "a years of age, and
owned farm.
The young farmer desired that his fair cor
respondent give a return description, which
she did. She wrote that she was widow, a
years of age, her hair being of an auburn
shade, commonly known as red. She was
freckled, also, but wore a veil Up to last
accounts the young man had not been heard
from, and no doubt his idea Of northern
beauty has received a Esvsre shOCk.-Port-

The Badges Power.

There is great deal of subtle power in a
badge, uniform or a title To the truth Of
this statement there is n we'll known German
here in town who is willing to testify. He
came to this country before the war from a
small town in Germany and located in Chi
cago. When the war broke out he enlisted
in an Illinois regiment, served through to the
close and attained the rank of sergeant.
After the war he returned to Chicago and
started in the livery business. He allowed
his military associations to fade away, Joined
no veteran associations and attended strictly
to business. In the course of a few years of
hard work he amassed a little fortune of
some $4,000, and he resolved to take his
family back to his native town in the ole
country for a visit.
He expected to cut a very wide swath
among his old friends in the little German
village, as he could pose as the wealthiest man
within its borders; but to his great surprise he
attracted very little attention. The people
there knew he had gained wealth, but he was
without title or decoration, and these count
for more than wealth over there. He was
sadly put out at his treatment and said he re-
manned awake nights endeavoring to think
how he could create an impression. Finally
a brilliant idea seized him. He packed up at
once and returned to Chicago. Here he
hunted up his discharge papers and joined a
Grand Army post. As soon as he had become a
member in good standing he pinned the q. A.
R. badge upon his breast and sailed back t
Germany. The people in the little town
were won over by the badge, and the Chicago
man was lonized 20 his hearts content Such
is the power of a decoration. Chicago Herald

and the most valuable discovery of all, his
admiration of Miss Halcombe, took its rise in
a conviction that he would not be true to ma
ture unless there was some weak point some
where in his character"
The proof that Wilkie Collins got very near
to the peoples hearts is in the fact that his
principal works have passed through many
editions both in England and America, and
have been translated into French, Italian,
German, Dutch, Danish and Russian. He
also wrote two plays, "The Lighthouse" and
1.-THE Frozen Deep" neither of which have
attracted attention in America. They ap-
pear to have been written for amateurs, and
Charles Dickens acted part in one of them,
both in parlor performance before the
queen and in public performance for
charity. Mr.. Collins has also done some lee
turing, and made the tour Of the United
States in that line
He was tireless worker when he had once
got his plot arranged, and no doubt aggra-
waited his physical troubles in that way, for
he was at times cruelty tortured by gout and
rheumatism. To alleviate the pain he began
to take opium many years before his death,
and soon the habit became firmly fixed.

he resigned his commission, and in 1S49 was
elected professor of mathematics in Wash

For six years Gen. Hill remained at Wash

institute at Charlotte. At the beginning of
the civil war he was made colonel Of the
First North Carolina regiment, c.. s. ", in
command Of which he won the battle Of Big
Bethel on June 10, 1861. He was made brig
adler general soon after, and was made major
general in March, 1862. He distinguished
himself in the seven days battles on the
peninsula. During the Gettysburg campaign
he commanded the defenses of Richmond and
Petersburg.
E On July II, 1868, Gen. Hill was commits

prominence predicted for him by such good
judges as Tim Keefe, Catcher Bushong, Jack
Lynch and Billy Holbert, all Of whom claim
he is unquestionably the best young pitcher
in the profession.
Carsey has plenty Of speed, all the curves,
and is cool, nervy pitcher, who can pitch a
good, steady game without getting ratified or
discouraged by poor fielding. Heis likewise
a good batter and base runner and an excel
lent fielder. He is a boy Of good habits and
does not drink or use tobacco in any form.
His legion of admirers, who like him for his
quiet ways and gentlemanly manners, wish
him every success in the future.

twenty four years ago In Philadelphia, &C
cording to The New York Clipper, and OBJ
tanned his first knowledge Of the national
game with amateur teams of his native city.
Starting in as q pitcher, he soon showed an
aptness that gained quite reputation for
him, as he delivered very speedy ball and
had fairly good command of it. His first
professional engagement was in 1886, when he
played with the Rochester club, and after
wards with the Binghamton team, both of
the International league He pitched in
nineteen championship games in all that sea-

he joined the Nashville club of the Southern
league. It was while with the Nashyilles
that he gniued great reputation as batter,
pitcher and fielder, and his services at once
became in brisk demand.
