dangerously sick at Cleveland, East
Tennessee. A few minutes later
another telegram came, announcing

METHODIST,
The Fruit Crop.

Our Irving College correspondent
reports this week that while the
wheat crop will be very short in that
section, the apple trees, contrary to
the expectations of few weeks ago,
are blooming out very luxuriantly.
The outlook for large fruit crop all
over the county is very promising at
present, so far as we can learn. If
our orchardists would convert the
still houses of this and adjoining
counties into storage houses for fruit,
and devote the time and energy now
given to brandy making, to gather
ing, storing and marketing their
fruit in better shape, we believe the
revenue from that crop would be
largely increased, and the worry and
expense Of Federal supervision of
their business dispensed with. All
sound apples can be marketed in the
fall from % to 40 cents per bushel,
and for all preserved beyond Christ
mas, from so cents to one dollar per
bashel can be realized. Distillers
only pay from s to 10 cents per bush
ell. They take good bad and indiffer-
emf fruit at these prices, but we be-
lieve it will pay better to sell the
good fruit at better prices, and LEI
the inferior fruit rot on the ground
or be fed to hogs, than to sell all tc
the distilleries at the low prices they
pay.

The government will now refund

The ownership of the seventy-two

1T PLuoKED AN OLD woMAN's P'ULTRy
AND DESTROYED HER SOFT SOAR.


One of the occupants Of the Good
cottage near Lake Gervais, on July IS,
an elderly lady, was very fond of taxi
ing care of fowls, and had raised near
ly q hundred chickens and ducks
These were all killed by the storm
The lady had also made nice lot Of
soft soap, OF which she was very
proud. The soap had been left on q
board by the sido of the house, and, Of
course, was carried away by the wind
The occupants Of the house, IL will
be remembered, took refuge in the
cellar when the storm was seen com
ing. All were more or less injured
and their clothing torn from their
bodies. 1t was nearly half an hour
before all were released, more dead
than alive The lady spoken of was
half unconscious, and the moment sh"
was taken from the cellar sic took on
glance at the work of the tornad",
threw up her hands and exc'Nm d:
"Ohl where are my ducks and my
chickens, and where is my nice soit
soapi'
Her soft soap has probably dissolved
in Lake Gervais, but the remains of
her ducks and chickens we've -four d
here aud there within rad US Of a
mile from the house. The idea that tor
nado could pluck the feathers from a
fowl as clean as could the most accom-
plished chef has been laughed at, but
come of the chickens aud ducks belong
ing to the Good family were stripped
of every feather. But that was moi
the only remarkable thing alb b,ut them.
Some of the chickens found nearly 8
mile from the house had their necki
stretched to remarkable length, The
necks of some, it is said by those who
saw them, being at least a foot long
Another incident of the storm is thai
one of the ladies who took refuge il
the cellar was almost covered with oats
the sharp needles of which pentrateC
her clothing and stuck TO the skin. Th'
husband of the lady vouches for tbi
occurancc, and Gays that it took nearl,
half an hour to remove the oats.

God Water Without los.

The following method of obtaining
constant supply of cool water at all
times is described by the Railroad
and Engineering Journal as being
in general use in Hanover, York
County, Pa.
The town, says the Journal, is
closely built up and without any system
of drainage, so that the water from
the, wells is unfit to drink. Some
years ago these reasons led to the in
PRODUCTION into the town of supply
of very excellent water from large
spring about three miles distant. This
water is brought through iron pipes,
and when it reaches the consumer in
summer is warm, while the water In
the wells is cool. For this reason
many of the inhabitantsd rink the well
water, and, as a consequence, typhoid
fever is prevalent disease in that
community. In order to obtain pure
cool water, not impregnated with lime,
some of the inhabitants of the place
have adopted plan which is so simple
and gives such excellent results that it
is worthy of general adoption wher-
ever there is water supply other than
wells or springs.
The plan is as follows: A cylind-
erical galvanized sheet iron tank, y
inches in diameter and feet or 5 feet
long, is placed in the bottom of well.
This tank is then connected by gal
vanized iron pipe with the water sup
ply pipes, and another pipe is carried
from the tank to the surface of the
ground, or to any convenient point for
drawing water, and has cock at the
upper end. The tank is consequently
always filled with water from the water
supply, and being in the bottom Of the
well, the water is cooled off and &C.
quires the temperature Of the well; so
that that which is drawn from the
tank is as cool as we'll water, and is
without any of the Impurities with
which the latter is contaminated. The
water drawn from the tank in one of
the wells in the place named had a
temperature of Sc when the thermom-
eter in the atmosphere above stood at
76.
This method gives an abundant
supply of cool water during the whole
summer. and can be adopted in all
cities, towns, or in the country. If a
well is available, it can be used; if not,
by simply digging hole in the ground
deep enough so as not to be affected
by the surface temperature, and bury
ing the tank, it will answer equally
well. This hole might be dug in a
cellar or outside the building. If the
water has any impurities in suspension,
such as mud, the tank should be made
accessible, SO that it can be cleaned
occasionally.

The modern magazine may be
taken as embodying the best literature
of the world, as the magazine editor
pays the highest price to novelists,
scientists, statesmen, soldiers, and even
kings and princes, for the best they
can furnish in the literary line. The
well.edited magazine becomes an edu-
eating influence in the family circle
whose importance cannot be over-esti-
mated. The children, as they grow
up, are attracted by its illustrations,
and so come in time to have taste for
reading. There is always something
that is new, something that is strange,
something that is interesting; and we
consider that we are doing our readers
a positive benefit if we are instrument
tai in placing such publication with

nsopohtan presents very unusual In
ducements. That magazine is already y
recognized as one of the most interest
ing publications of the day. 1t is

obtaining them. The proprietors be-
lieve that the Cosmopolitan has only
to be examined to secure permanent

abled to make, if the offer Is accepted
