hope every farmer in our county will

Prepare the soil we'll and sow as near the
10th of August os you can. Plant in fiat
beds about y feet wide. find the Aber-
q IN and Amber Globe among the best
varieties. As soon rs you can, hoe your
turnips carefully, leaving not more than
two turnips in the width Of the hoe. Then,
after week or ten days, put furrow w.h
n small plow around the turnips, drilling
with hand few cats in the furrow then q
small plow will split ridge in middle, cover
ing your oats, and giving you two rows of
cats to each one Of turnips. 4 fine guam

have plenty of turnips for your cattle tn C

IN THIRTY-THREE SECONDS,
The Bicycle Locomotive Makes a
Pretty Fast Run.

NEW YORK, August ia mile in thirty
three seconds was the rate at which a
party of newspaper men were whirled along
the Boynton Bicycle Railway yesterday from
Gravesend to Bader's Hotel at Brighton,
Coney Island. Eben Moody Boynton, the
president of the company which has built
the road, was on hand to explain its opera,
tiop, and General George W. Wingate, attor-
ney of the Brooklyn Elevated Railroad,
watched the new style of passenger trans
portation with deep interest
A single bicycle passenger car was used,
Beach track. The car itself was a double
decker car, in each deck being six double
and one single compartments, each compart-
ment being by itself and entered from the
side OF the car Each seat accommodates
three perso ms. The car Is less in width
than half the standard gauge track, so that
two cars can pass each other when they are
run on opposite rails.
The wheels of the car are directly under
the center, double fiange grasping the rail.
The car is prevented from toppling over by
double wheels attached to the top Of the car
and running one on each side of continu-
GUS wooden beam held up by the framework
on either side OF the track. The engine en-
ployed Is bicycle one also. The car is run
on the principle of a hoop in motion, which
the faster it goes is the less likely to wobble
or fall over.
Mr.. Boynton says his scheme is practical
Tor elevated roads, and some engineering
papers have already declared that it is
destined to revolutionize the present system
OF passenger transportation. Mr.. Boynton
says he can carry 1000 passengers at the rate
OF so miles an hour continuously or 600 pas
sengerS at 100 miles an hour

SENATOR QUAYs VERY BAD BARGAIN.

SereneIY in the House.
Especial to the Press.I

WASHINGTON, August 15.-The situation
in regard to the federal election bill in the
Senate is still very much mixed up. What
happened in last evenings caucus is still
little known. 1t is known that Senators
Edmunds, Sherman, Hoar. Frye. Spooner
and Higgins made strong and earnest speech
es against the Quay surrender. 1t is said that
Senators Quay. Plumb and Aldrich made
speeches on the other side. There is also
made the statement that a vote was taken on
Senator Hoar's proposal to add the federal
election bill to Mr.. Quay's list of bills that
should be passed before adjournment, and
that the proposal was defeated, IS to II. the
eighteen going in for the Quay surrender
being reported, as Messrs. Aldrich, Allen,
Cameron, Davis, Dixon. Hale, Hiscock.

Quay. Stockbridge. Teller and Washburn.
The seventeen who are credited with voting
to fight it out without compromise are
Messrs. Allison. Blair, Casey. Dolph, Ed
gals, Manderson. Moody. Piatt, San; Sanders, rs
Sherman, Spooner and Wilson. This vote,
however, was far from final, as several strong
friends of the election bill are not in this list
of seventeen. 1t is not wholly certain that
SuCH NOlt was lOImdlly tak6D, DuL IL
is believed that it denotes very nearly the
attitude of the Senators named. Quay and
those with him are coming In for bitter de-
nunciations on account Of their trade. They
are denounced all the more because it is not
certain that they will gain even the passage
of the tariff bill. The Democrats have found
out how pusillanimous their opponents are,
and now 1t is openly intimated that since
flibustering is not restricted in the Senate,
the Democratic Senators are thinking that
while they are about it they may as we'll kill
the tariff bill too. The friends of the election
bill adjourned the caucus last night and ,ano-
ther will be held soon.

OFF THE IRON.
a Locomotive Tipped over and
Traffic Delayed at Watervllle.

OAKLAND, August 15.-As engine No. 81,
attached to coal train from Waterville
early this morning. was engaged in shifting
cars upon the Somerset line at this station,
the engine, tender and saloon car were
backed through an open switch through the
negligence of an operative.
The tender and locomotive were tipped
over and partially buried in the yielding
sand and gravel between the two tracks, the
ties and rails being torn up for distance
of several rods. Train No. IL from Skowhe-
gan to Portland, was unable to pass the
wreck, and the veteran. John Ellis of the
Waterville repair shops, was ordered out to
clear the track for passage as soon as posi-
bic.
Engineer Richardson of the Portland
freight was ordered from Winthrop to
handle the loaded coal cars, and made the
distance of % miles in 26 minutes. The
morning ''scoot" from Waterville made
schedule time and connections were made
with the Somerset road.
Passengers and baggage for Lewiston and
Portland were sent through by the lower
branch and all delay avoided so far as pos
sibe. The track was cleared by 11.30 and
traffic was resumed.
