Rust In Wheat.

Prof j, Hoyes Panlon, of the Guelph
tOnt. Agricultural College, who has inves-
igated the causes Of rust in wheat and
'ther grains makes the following remarks
/. Seasons are the chief cause of rust;
sudden changes of temperature and rain,
accompanied with close, still weather are
favorable to its increase.
q Low lying, rich soils are most subject
to aCtack.
8. An excessive use of manures, rich in
nitrogen, encourage the disease.
4. Late sown CLAIM is most subject to
attack.
5. Thinly sown crops seem most liable
to injury.
g. Red wheats are less affected than
white varieties.
7. Rust is more common in the vicinity
of barberry hedges than at distance.
To lessen the attacks of this troublesome
parasite farmers should avoid, as far as pos.
sible, the conditions referred to above, which
seem favorable to its propagation. BY SC
doing they are following in the line of prac
tical and theoretical teaching and may ex
pect favorable results.

The Crete Chautauaua.

CRETE, Neb., May 29.-lSpecial Telegram
TO The BEE. President f. l. Foss, of the
Chautauqua association, of this place, has is
sued an invitation to the members Of the g.
A. II. and the old soldiers Of the state of Ne
brasSa, IN which he says; hereby tender to
you an invitation TO be present and spend
the Fourth of July with us upon the Ne
braska Chautauqua assembly grounds, at
Crete. For that day we have prepared
programme which we think will be of un-
usual interest to you. The Fourth of July
has always been known, and Is known upon
our assembly grounds, as G.. A. II. and Old
Soldiers day, and the exercises OF the day
are largely given up to them. The pro-
gramme will be as follows: An address by
Ex-Governor Cumback, of Indiana, also by
Corporal Tanner, commissioner OF pensions,
at Washington. In the evening there will
be exercises in the nature Of camp fire, in
the pavilion, with short speeches OF from
five to ten minutes from six or eight OF the
best speakers in the country. There will
also be grand display of fire works. No
portunity of giving to Corporal Tanner
warm and hearty welcome. Entering the
army as he did, at the age of seventeen,
meeting with the misfortune which he did at
the second battle of Bull Run, and having to
undergo the amputation of both limbs at
two different times, he has risen to the DO.
sition which he now occupies. His presence
is an Grafton more powerful than words.
Come and enjoy the Fourth with us. No ad-
mission will be asked Of G.. A. Il. or old
soldiers. (This, however, does not apply to
the families, VINO will be charged the regu-
lar admission.)

Tho Cretc wnterworl,s Feud.

BEATRICE, Neb., May 29.-lSpecial to THE
BEE. Last nights council meeting was in
circus. Councilmen Cole Dorsey and
Walker took exceptions to tha reports of the
mayor and Frank Reynold, engineer from
Omaha, which were published in The BEE
about ten days ago. Said councilmen took
the mayor to task for stepping in ahead of
the water committee and employing MIR. Rey-
nolds to go over the machinery, when the
water committee had been appointed to take
charge of the work. They also characterized
the published statement of the mayor as re-
flecting on their integrity and hon
esty, and introduced a resolution
which carried, to 2, censurng the mayor,
for his action and declaring his published
statement malicious and lbelous The mayor
replied by saying that there were no refec-
tions meant on members of the council; that
he had done his duty in causing the machin-
cry to be examined just at that time, as the
filter company was refusing to run the filters
on the test which was going on, claiming
that the unsteady action of the pumps would
damage the filters. He wanted to know
whether that was the trouble or whether the
filter company were afraid their machinery
would not filter the water, which was then
very muddy. He said he spoke to members
of the council before he sent for Reynolds;
that there were mischief makers outside of
the council who were stirring this matter up,
and that the resolution introduced did him
injustice. He wished to work harmonlously
with the council, and thought they could do
so, and that it would be for the best interests

HASTINGS, Neb., May 29.-TSpecial Tele-
gram to The BEE. THE testimony in behalf
OF the defendant in the Aldrich trial to-day
was to the effect that the late husband Of
the accused widow was a man of violent
temper, and subject to frequent fits Of de-
spondency, even expressing in some of his
speeches the thoughts of self-destruction.
Mrs. Aldrich, on the stand, denied the awful
charge against her, and also that of any
undue intimacy with DIR. Naultens. The evil
dence on both sides has been taken, and
Judge Gaslin has read his Instructions to the
jury, saying that poisoning admits Of no de-
grees of guilt and the fact must be estab-
lished beyond n reasonable doubt. The ar
gument before the jury was made this after
noon and evening, by Burton, Tanner and
Dudrow, of Fremont, O., in behalf of de-
fepdant; and Durgan, Casio and Batty for

A BRUTAL MURDER.
An Old Man Killed I'm Bed and His
House Ransacked.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, May 29.-lSpecial Tel
egram to The BEE. Lewis Hugh, one of
the oldest citizens of this region, was bru-
tally murdered last night at his home in the
southern part of the county. About mid
night several men broke into his bedroom.
The old mans wife died two weeks ago, and
the only person in the house with him was
his little twelve-year-old grandson. They
were occupying the same bed. When the
murderers entered the room the old man
reached for gun, but before he could use it
he was shot dead. The murderers then shot
and wounded the little boy and left him for
dead, but he afterward escaped to tell the
story of the terrible crime.
After the murderers shot the old man
down, and the boy lay wounded on the floor,
they entered the room and carried away
Hugh's trunk, which contained considerable
nancy. They broke open a chest and Sc.
cured several thousand dollars in gold aud
silver
The man was seventy y-fve years of age,
and had been living in this county over fifty
years. Three colored men living in the
neighborhood have been arrested on sus-
picon, and there is strong circumstantial
evidence against them.

western Railroad company has called for q
special session of the county commissioners
to be held on the 3lst, for the purpose Of
submitting bond propositions to Lincoln and
Lindsay precincts, the two southeastern pre-
cincts of Knox county. The Randolph &
Wayne branch of the Chicago, st. Paul,
Minneapolis g. Omaha railroad has reached
the country through which the Yankton &
Norfolk line will pass. IT is one of the finest
sections of country in the northern part of
the state, and the Omaha line will not let
this country get away from it. 1t is the pur
pose of the rankton line to try and build
town on the old ranch formerly owned by
John L. M. Pierce, the prime mover in this
railroad scheme, but the Randolph line is
said to be ready to make a junction in the
same vicinity with their Ponca & Harting-
ton lines and then make for Niobrara
through a beautiful country, again connect
ing with the Niobrara branch of the Elkhorn
Valley road, for line up the Nioprara river
through the Sioux reservation as soon as
opened.
