CHICAGO, Nov. 7.-Director- General
Davis and Secretary Dickinson of the
Worlds Columbian exposition, have is
sued a circular letter to members of the
national commission in reference to citi-
zens in various states and territories,
organized for the purpose of securing
proper representation at the worlds
fair; making arrangement for their ex-
hibits, raising funds and getting proper
measures through the legislature. At
tention is called to the commendable
promptness with which the people
of the state OF California ileid a stat ts
convention to inaugurate the matter,
and the legislature of Iowa appropriat-
ing $4,000 for preliminary expense.
with another appropriation to be made
next year. A state convention of citi-
zens is commended as one of the best
plans, and permanent organization
should be effected to attend to the work
of the different states and territories.
The commissioners will be requested to
visit the legislatures this winter and use
their best endeavors to see that plan
of organization is adopted.

A GO-Between's Death Leaves $50, 600
In Peculiar Situation.
CHICAGO, Nov. IA short time ago,
ex-Alderman Whelan was shot and
killed by man named Hathaway, and
it was matter of common notoriety in
political circles that Whelan was 60
between or clearing house for bribe
money passing between corporations
wanting franchises and purchasable
members of the city council. An after
noon paper says that shortly before his
death Whelan deposited $4,000 in a
bank in this city, as step towards the
transfer from certain elevated railroad
in need of a franchise, and certain al
dermen desirous of realizing the finan-
cial value of their votes in granting it.
The paper points out that Whelan's
death leaves this tidy sum in peculiar
situation. Though in Whelan's name,
it does not belong to his estate; the rail.
road people dare not take action to re-
cover it, and the aldermen have no
claim on it, and dare not enforce it if
they had.

One Farmers Garden

He prepares piece near his potato
patch, fan enough from the farm-yard to
be safe from the chickens. When he is
marking his potato ground he marks his
garden in the same wide rows; then puts
fertilizer in the hills or in rows for the
peas parsnips and seed which has to be
sown, and in the hills plants beans, Gu
cumbers, melons, etc. When he Guilt
Yates his potatoes it does not take many
minutes to run through his garden with
a horse hoe, and as he goes through it
every time he does the potatoes the
weeds do not get much of start When
the tomatoes, peppers and cabbage
plants are grown enough, he transplants
them into the garden. Some would
think of the waste land lying between
the wide rows; but remember this is a
farmers garden, where there is plenty
of land, and his time is worth more
somewhere else than crawling on his
knees wedding by hand. In garden of
this kind you will find there is little
wedding by hand. And when your mel
ons, squashes, etc, spread you will not
find more room between the rows than
is necessary for the vines. IL you go
into the garden when the dew is on to
gather peas for dinner, you will find the
rows none too far apart to make 1T
pleasant work And you will be more
than repaid for your five or three min
utes' walk by the perfect vegetables
you will gather.-Farm and Home.

A NEW COW TIE.

This Appears to he an Excellent Device.
l am pleading for the COW, writes
o. II. Smith, of Cattaraugus County, n.
", in the Rural New Yorker, in de-
scribing the device shown in this
article. The picture hardly needs any
description. A is standard plank one
foot wide and two inches thick; Il is a
lever one inch thick, tapering in width,
being two and one-half inches at the
wide end and one inch at the ''tie" end;
G is the slat bolted to the standard
with pieces inserted between the slat
and the standard, so as to leave space
in which the lever is held in place
while allowed to work up and down
freely; ID is bolt fastening the lever
to the standard; Z is peg on which the
ring on one end of the chain is hung
When the COW is let loose the ring
should be hung on the peg. When she
is to be tied she puts her head and neck
over the lever and the chain is handy
TO go around her neck. The chain from
each lever is always to be hung on the
next standard. The lever has the mo-
ton of the cows neck-when she is up
the lever is up; when she is down the
lever is down.
Mr.. Smith writes as follows concern
ing his device, which, by the way, is
not patented: | have used my device
for two and a-half years for herd of

In other species all the birds in a
