POSTMASTER LEWIS BOYCOTTED.
Compelled to Sell Out His Business Be-
cause of the Atlanta Agitation.

An Atlanta special to the Philadelphia Press
says: The post Office sensation in this city has
assumed a new phase, that OF a business boy
colt. At least that is the story given out by G..
II. Chase, the partner of Gen. ]. K. Lewis in
the rubber business. Gen. Lewis has been for
years president of the Atlanta rubber company.
As soon as he found himself in q storm because
of his appointment of the colored man Penny
to position in the post Office, where he would
have white lady as a companion, he suggested
to his partners that he was ready to retire from
the rubber company. In an interview today
Messrs. Chase and Covell announce they have
bought out the business Of Gen. Lewis. Mr..
Chase, when asked about the change, said:
1.-The firm couldn't afford to be boycotted on
account of unpopularity of one of its members,
and so that member of the firm was asked to
sell his share of the business and withdraw"
This marks new phase and the end of the
trouble is hard to foresee. Gen. Lewis is
deeply mortified by the drift of public senti-
ment against him, but claims it is unwarranted

Gen. William Malone, the republican nomi-
nee for governor Of Virginia, was born in
Southampton county in 1927 and was educated
at the Virginia military institute. Up to the
outbreak of the war he was engaged in railroad
surveying. In 1861 he entered the confederate
service and was made colonel of the sixth vir-
ginia regiment. In March, 1864, he was CON-
missioned brigadier general, and in the follow
ing August he was raised to the rank of major
general He subsequently led division in
Hills corps and surrendered with Gen. Lee
at AppOmattox. At Petersburg he earned
the soubriquet Of the Hero OF
the Crater" After the war he was elected
president OF the consolidated railroads
between Norfolk and Bristol. He also engaged
in politics and was active in the movement
which resulted in the election Of Gilbert G.
Walker, governor Of Virginia. After failing ia

organized and became the leader of the read
juster party, which advocated the conditional

allied himself with the republican party, with
which he has since co-operated.

FEEDING cows.

In feeding cows there is less danger
in any departure from the strict rules of
feeding, and yet COWS, although the milk
acts us safety valve to let off the excess
slve pressure in this way, are subject to
damage by infractions of these rules. A
cow, OF any breed, has more or less abil-
ity to dispose of food above the natural
requirements for the maintenance of the
system. The excess of food is disposed
OF In the production of milk, and it is
the business of the feeder to discover the
profitable ability of each COW IN the herd
In this respect. Cows vary very much
IN this natural ability. Some are verita-
bic mills in this respect, taking in a
practically unlimited grist and turning
out corresponding product One COW
especially is reported to have eaten sew
cnty-nine pounds of grain food in day,
and yielded seven pounds of butter daily.
This, perhaps, is an unexampled instance
OF the disposal of food but the inevita-
bic result happcncd-it killed the COW.
The food was more than could be health.
fully disposed Of. Cows arc not EXEMPT
from the i'll results OF ovcrfeetiug, and
the safe way is to find what can be done
with due regard to health and maintain
that point constantly while the produc,
calls for it. But, even then, there is
danger of an accumulation Of unassim.
ilated products in the animal which pro.

? FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

The asparagus bed and the rhubarl
plants should be carefully mulched late in
the fall. This will aid materially TO the
,sssptiia#a Il, 4. hsshssS rs~us
Hens will lay just us many eggs and
just as good for all purposes except
Matching, when there arc no cocks run
ming with them, as when there are. More
than that unfcrtilc eggs will keep their
freshness longer than fertile ones.
A pig that is stunted in The carly days
! or weeks of its life, should never have
place in the breeding herd. If used in
the herd it is to be expected that the otr-
| spring will inherit some OF the uuthrifti-
ness caused in the parent by stunting.
Old orchards can be renovated by plow-
ing shallow and thorough manuring,
pruning and clearing up after whitcwash-
ing the trees to destroy vermin and doing
suc!, other work as may be necessary to
get the soil and trees in good condi.
zion.
A farmer who had many sheep killed
by dogs, built round the bodies an in
closure of rails twelve feet high, the rails
being siopel so that the dogs could
easily climb in and exit was impossible
In three nights he captured forty
dogs.
Kill, sell or give away the roosters
after you are through setting eggs for
the season. You don't want to breed
from them again; the hens will lay bet
ter without them; the eggs will keep
better if you want to pack them; and
you will save considerable feed. The
roosters must go.
No fruit grower should be without a
good supply of ladders, light. strong and
substantial, and of varying sizes. If the
trees are trained as they should be, most
OF the ladders should be sclf-supportn.,
so as to place under the branches and en-
able the fruit gathcrers to reach what
they could not from the ground. Prop
erly cared for, such ladders will last
great many years.
The most practical method Of putting
up family supply of eggs for winter
use Is to take box Of suitable size and
fastcn the bottom on with creased
screws; put in layer of salt and layer
of eggs on top. another layer of salt and
SO on until the box is filled and the
eggs completely covered and surrounded
with salt. The eggs should be fresh and
not touch each other. Keep in dry
place and rs cool as possible. When
wanted for use take OF the bottom and
use tho oldest eggs first.

STORING UNDER SHELTER.

1t is certainly imperative to store every
thing under shelter. This includes the
crops and the feed, the stock and the ma
chinery. 1t is also an item, in storing
away, to arrange as far as possible for
convenience. Much of the labor of feed
ing and caring for stock can be reduced
by arranging the stock, and providing
the feeding boxes and managers, and stor-
ing the feed where it can be fed out con
venicntly.
In putting away the tools plan should
be devised SO that those that will be
needed first can be reached without be-
ing obliged to move or take out such rs

THE pRIsK TROUBLE ABROAD.

Not the least important of the international
conferences recently held in Paris was that
which met 10 study The drink question. The
European countries have become alarmed. at
the dangerous progress OF alcoholism, and
are searching for means to stem it. s..
In France and Belgium Government Com
missions have considered the question and
suggested various remedies. Drunkenness
until 4 few years ago was all but unknown in
France. One might have walked the streets
of Paris at any hour of the day or night with
out seeing any one the worse for liquor. But
now drunkenness is there in it's worst form.
The report Of the recent Congress contains
figures which prove that drink IS now one Of
the chief causes Of crime and of lunacy.
Fourteen per cent. of the lunatics under treat
ment in France owe their insanity to alco-
hoism, and in 1856 it was the cause Of 53S
accidental deaths and S6S suicides.
Some statistics Of the number of liquor
saloons to inhabitants in different European
countries We're given Mt the congress. In
England there is licensed house for every
OBJ inhabitants; in Austria, one to 266 in
Italy, one for every IT'S; in Holland, one for
every 149; in France, one for every 90 peo-
pie, and in Belgium one for every 43. The
Belgians drink more than any other people
iii Europe. They consume 20, 600, 600 Gtres of
liquor every year, which gives 60 htres to
every male adult. Paris is pretty we'll pro-
vided with liquor shops, or cafes, having one
among every 81 inhabitants. The quantity
of liquor consumed per head Of the inhabit-
ants, women and children included, is G
litres in England, 10 in Sweden, 16 in Dem
mark, . litres in Belgium, and in Prussia
and France.

DRINK AND CRIME.

1t is n significant fact, says the Temper
ance Adrocdte, of New York, that while
there has been general increase of crime in
the country at large during the last decade.
there has been u diminution Of crime in all
the States and localities wherein the GquoF
traffic is prohibited. In this aspect the next
United States census report is likely to prove
a valuable temperance document.
Alcohol transforms women as well as men
into reckless criminals. Recently, at an early
hour in tho morning, the attention Of Jersey
City policeman was attracted by screams Of
murder, and he found the street in All uproar
and about a dozen men and women in a
drunken row. After he had separated the
people and was about to leave he heard a
pistol shot, and bullet whiZzed by his
ear. Turning he saw a revolver in the hands
of drunken woman, aimed at his head, but
by dexterous movement he wrested it from
her, and took her a prisoner to the station
house, where she awaits trial. Alcohol con-
verted the woman into a amurderous fiend. -
