NICARAGUA CANAL.
1t May be the Cause OF War Between Costa

1t May be the Cause Of War Between Costa
Rica and Nicaragua.
CHICAGO, Ill, July "A special dis
patch from San Francisco says sensa-
tional news of a possible war between
Costa RIGA and Nicaragua over the canal
came by steamer from Panama The
Managua correspondent OF the Panama
Star and Herald says the war party has
control of the Costa Rica government
and urges the immediate invasion of
Nicaragua unless heavy indemnity be
paid for carrying the canal into the San
Juan river for sixty miles along the Costa
RIGA boundary This land claimed by
Costa RIGA has been decided by treaty to
belong to Nicaragua, but this treaty will
be violated. The canal people obtained
from Costa Rica, only a few months ago,
a concession to carry the canal along the
river, but the war party gained power
and repudiated the agreement. Costa
RIGA has much larger army than Mica
ragua, and her troops have recently been
equipped with the best arms from
Europe. Managua is greatly excited, as
troops have been massed on the Costa
Rican frontier, and an immediate adj
vance is feared.

1t is feared that the present high

The expectation of live cattle contin-
ues exceptionally heavy, and should this
keep up at the present rate the current
seasons will show one of the largest totals
on record. Prices are low abroad, but
high enough as compared with those art
home, although ocean freight rates are
higher than year ago. The beef of
cattle exported alive continues to COM
mand a premium in the British markets
of 304c per pound above that which is
exported dressed.

Cattlemen from all over the cattle
range report the heaviest calf crop that
has been known for years, and from all
reports they are doing well and promise
fair. This condition of things should
cause stoclSraisers to make room for the
yearlings. Stockmen would do well to
clear the ranges of all steer cattle above
the age Of yearlings, and by so doing
give the breeders and yearlings as much
show as possible, and by so doing they
would benefit themselves. One of the
worst features in the cattle business in
Texas is the large accumulation of steer
cattle on the range. In the past few
years they have proven Improbable cap
ital. They represent so much money
which could be used to advantage in
many other ways, and at the same time
relieve the stocked pastures.

In its weekly review of the wool mar
ket the Wool Report of the 28th ult.
says:
The movement in domestic wool has
continued good and large sales of new
woods are reported. As regards prices
.there is a sLrong feeling, and the tone of
Western markets being still of
an excited nature and high prices being
paid there, dealers here have been
obliged to name an advance. This has
been done to some extent a good deal
against their better judgment, for while
the trade here has had courage enough
to follow the West, they believe that the
thing has been overdone to some extent.
In fact, a lack of confidence in the flu
ture of the market is shown by those
dealers, who are free sellers of the new
wool they are receiving The business
of the week has been largely in Texas,
territory and California woods. Fine
washed f1eeces are still quiet, as stocks
are very small, the receipts of new wool
being light as yet. A good, steady
movement in pulled woods is noticed,
and considerable old Eastern Oregon has
been cleaned up. In prices there are few
changes made this week, but the
higher prices quoted last week are sus-
tanned and the feeling is a strong one
throughout In the goods trade the
opening of casimeres at about per cent.
advance Is noticed. The manufacturers
have taken number of orders, and in
| this respect the business is ahead of last
year. AS fast as orders are taken, man.
| ufacturers are DESTROYS of covering them
| by purchases of wool, and hence the
| steady movement in the raw material.
| But the goods situation is not yet salts
! factory one, and a greater advance
| should have been established than has
lyet been qnoted in order to counteract
f the increased cost of the raw material .
] Foreign advices continue very favorable
| and a further advance of one penny is
/ reported at the London action sales. The
| selection Offering at the sales is the poor
est seen there for some time. On this
account very little is being bought for
| this side, although there are number OF
| American manufacturers represented at
the sales, and they are picking up all the
| available stock.

The purchase of the plant of the ST.
Louis dressed beef company by the Fair
bank canning company of Chicago indi-
Gates, if nothing else, that there is to be
opened up another market tor certain
class of cattle-a class that it is foolish
to raise, as there is but little profit in
them, if any at all. 1t is said that it is
the intention of those who have pur-
chased these works to make ST. Louis a
competing market with Chicago and that
the South will be furnished with the
meat slaughtered by this company. 1t
means another thing, too. 1t means
that if the st. Louis butchers do not
handle the meat of this company that
they will be almost crushed out of exist
ence by this branch of the Big Four.

LICOgiCE ROOT.
Where II Comes From and How II is
Prepared.
TExchange.l

*
Nearly 5000, 900 pounds OF licor:ce
root arrived at the port of New York
during enc week recently from
Smyrna. Tie largest share Of licorice
now comes from Asia Minor, one
American having almost u monopoly
of 1t, and having branches for manu-
featuring the extract in this country.
Large quantities of licorice are i'm
ported into the United States at a
heavy expense of import duties.
About year ago it was settled beyond
doubt that the soil and climate Of CAL
ifornia are perfectly adapted to its pro-
duction. Licorice Is prepared like
horseradish by means VI root slips,
which ere removed from the main
root. The soil must be well fertlliz ii
and thoroughly broken to the depth
of three feet TO obtain the best results.
The grent depth Is necessary TO en-
courage the roots to grow downward
10 escape the intense heat not only OF
one, but of several hot summers, as II
takes, three or four years to perfect the
roots for market, during which time
tho plant must receive constant and
careful cultivation with the prong hoe,
Lay OFT the rows two feet apart, and
after cutting the root slips into sec
tious of five or six incbes, plant them
in vertical holes made with u dibble,
sixteen inches apart, observing to thrust
them several inches below the surface
and cover over AZ the growing sea
son closes each autumn, the stems
should be cut down aud removed, aud
a liberal coating of manure composted
with rich hammock (top) soil. II tht
plants have been well cared for, the
roots may be- large enough in three
years to harvest for market, though
four years is not uncommon. Harvest
ing Is quite tedious job and on &C
count OF the depth-two or three feet
has to be done with a spade. Wher
dug the side roots, used for propaga
ton, are cut off, aud the main root:
washed, dried and tied in convenien
sized bundles.

The Roman Marriage.

Independent of the legal fol mas, there
were the social Observances OF mar.
risRe. which were the same whatever
was the legal ceremony chosen. AT
pIRhtfaIl, when the star OF Venus began
10 shine, the bride was fetched from
her fathers house. She was dressed In
q white robe. symbol Of her virgin
purity. bound round her waist with q |
wooden sash her hair was plated into
six lresses after those of the Vestal
Virgins; on her head she wore fame
colOred veil, and fresh wreath Of the
sacred verbens, for the wife was
priestess In her family. UGder the
protection of Juno Domiduca (the
home leaeler) she passed through the
streets accompanied by her friends,
and lighted on her way with torches.
BY her side there walked young boy
carrying an open basket, in which
there lay hank OF wool, a distan and
spindle, for spinning was the great
duty Of the Roman matron OF the re-
public. To be good spinner. was q
gem In her crown of virtues, by the
side OF chastity and frugaiity. and the
emblems Of this occupation were held
In honor even at q time when the
chosen pursuits of women were very
different. Arriving at the door Of her
new home she found II wreathed with
flowers In honor of the festive occasion.
On the door posts she hung fillets Vi
wool and anointed them with oil as =
symbol, 1t would seem, Of fertility.
She was then lifted over the threshold,
a custom In which we may see sur
vival of the time when wives were
habitualIy stolen from neighborine
tribes and carried by force to thei'
husbands house. In the atrium the
bridegroom received her, handed ett
her key az sign OF her rule In thu
house, and offered her fire and water L
represent the necessaries Of life which
were at her disposal. Answering 10 thu
fixed formula In which he addressed
her, asking who she was, she replied
MWhere you are Caius there am
CAT" as we might say. "Your peopl
shall be my people, your house %.
house, and your life my life." Tn
