Potash as a Fertilizer.

Excepting pears and winter apples,
nearly all kinds of fruit succeed as we'll
or better on light soil than on that
which contains more clay. For peaches,
plums and cherries sandy soil is
especially adapted. The only caution
needed in growing these fruits is
to make the lands rich, and to
supply large amounts of mineral
fertilizers. The stone fruits are es-
pecially greedy for potash, and if wood
ashes cannot be readily obtained, the
potash salts furnish good substitute
In forming the seeds of any fruit, as in
ripening the fruit itself, potash is in
dispensable. Lack of this or other
mineral elements retards the fruit in
ripening, and often, after standing still
for one or two weeks for want of ma
terial to develop the fruit, it drops to
the ground. Lack of mineral plant food
is probably the original source of
grape mildew and rot, though once es-
tablished it flourishes under almost any
conditions. Most cases of grape mil
dew originated in vines whose vitality
was weakened by overbearing. But ex-
cept when boughs break through being
too heavily loaded, there is no such
thing as overbearing that does not mean
a rather insufficient supply of plant
food for nature to perfect the fruit it has
set and undertaken to ripen.- [Ameri-

Invention of the COmnass

The valuable invention of the compass
is involved in mystery, and its real dis
coverer is unknown. Lafteau, in his
history of the Portuguese discovery OF
the new world, says that Vasco da
CANA brought it to Lisbon from the
coast of Africa on his return from
Melinda, where the Arabs then used it,
and he believed the Portuguese to have
been until then ignorant of it.
Some attribute it to Flavia Gioia, OF
Amalphia, about the year 1902
while others again are of the opinion
that the invention is due to the Chinese
and that one of their emperors, a cele-
brated astrologer, was acquainted with
it eleven hundred and twenty years be-
fore the christian era; nor have others
again been wanting who supported the
opinion that it was known in the time
OF Solomon. The ancient Greeks and
Romans are also supposed by some to
have used it, but the silence of their his
torians on this subject renders this state
ment doubtful New York Ledger.

BADLY BEATEN
Mrs. White Has Her Collar-Bone
Broken.

1t is stated that yesterday morning
Mrs. Clayton White, who recently OBJ
tanned divorce from an attorney and
collection agent of that name, was as
saulted by her former husband in the
presence of number of her immediate
neighbors, and received such injuries as
will incapacitate her from her house
hold duties for some time to come.
Mrs. White, who was a Miss Hanni-
ford, married Clayton White some nine
years ago. and on Monday last she
secured divorce on the grounds of
cruelty and failure to provide, White
offering no opposition to her suit. She
was also granted the custody of her two
children, a boy years of age and little
2-year-old girl, it being understood, how
ever, that their father should be per-
mitted to call and see them Yester-
day morning White called at his former
wife's residence on the corner of Pickett
and Pennsylvania avenues, Boyle
Heights, presumably for this purpose,
but on gaining admission to the house
he taxed his wife with having been the
cause of their troubles, and after an un-
pleasant scene it is stated that he drew
a pistol and fourished it about threaten
ingly. Mrs. White left the room and
went out on the lawn in front of the
house, whittier White followed her.
He then struck her, knocking her down,
and as she rose again choked her almost
to insensibility. Several of her neigh
bors witnessed the affair, but as all were
women, none dared to interfere, and
White walked off, leaving his fainting
wife to take care of herself. Mrs. White
was picked up and carried to bed, when
it was found that her collar bone was
broken in two places and that her right
shoulder and arm were terribly bruised
from the blows inflicted by her cowardly
ex-husband. Police Surgeon Morrison
was telephoned for, and attended to the
lady's injuries, which were of a serious
nature and rendered her almost entirely
helpless.
White subsequently called at the
house and proffered an apology for his

THE RAILROADS.
Sunset Special Seaside Travel The
Union Pacific.


Union Pacific.
Three Sunset special trains filled with
wool, wine and sugar went east over the
Southern Pacific yesterday.
Travel to Santa Monica and Redondo
was very lively yesterday and a large
number of people were carried over to
Santa Catalina.
The Salt Lake Times has the following,
which will be read with interest: Some
very interesting and important rumors
concerning the future plans of the Union
Pacific are now in circulation. One is
to the effect that the company is nego-
tiating for a long lease of the Central Pa
cifc, and another is that the Union Pa
made more solid by the election of Mar
win Hughitt to the presidency of the en-
tire combination. This is very plaus-
ible story. 1t is well-known fact that
Vanderbilt is largely interested in the
Union Pacific and Northwestern, and
that it is his ambition to have Wander
bilt system from New York to San Fran
cisco. The leasing OF the Central Pacific
will complete the link. The Union Paci-
fc, on the other hand, needs the
Central Pacific. If it secures that
road it will be on a more independ-
ent basis in it's attitude to the
other roads which now or will form a
junction with the Central Pacific at
Ogden. The other roads, however, will
naturally endeavor to prevent this plan
being carried out. as its accomplish
ment would place them at the mercy of
the combination. Meantime, so it is
reported, the Milford extension of the
Union Pacific will be stopped until
something definite is learned as to the
probable result of the negotiations now
said to be in progress. 1t is also rumored
that an order has been issued for the
temporary suspension CT work on the
Los Angeles extension. If all these re-
ports are true, they show that there is
to be lively railroad fight of consider
able magnitude with the Union Pacific
and Northwestern combination on one
side, and on the other the roads that are
interested in keeping the Central from
going into any alliance that would
naturally prevent fair treatment at the
junction point.

conduct, the result of which was that
Mrs. White positively refused
to swear to a complaint
against her assailant, claiming
that she knows him better than anyone
else and fears that he would do her some
more serious injury, should the matter
be made public. 1t is said that appeals
were made to two policemen to arrest
White by the neighbors, but that the
officers refused to interfere on the
ground that they were not authorized to
do so. without warrant.

Your suggestion in today's issue that the La

vited to that very beautiful and most centrally
located park at tho intersection Of New York
and Massachusett avenues and street, known
as Mount Vernon Square. There does not appear
to be any good reason for changing the names
OF any OF our parks. and as that in which the
foundation for the monument has been built
has by many long been known as jackson
Square" there can be no great harm in per-
uniting 1t to SO remain. while adopting the
