4 West Virginia Trick.

PARKERsBURG, July PA Gilman
County lumberman is S10G ahead, but
has gotten himself in serious trouble
throug gh the trick which advanced bis
bank account but depleted his conscience.
Walnut lumber is very scarce and very
valuable, and the Gilman County man,
having fine walnut tree on his land,
cut it down and sold it for a handsome
sum to an Eastern man who bought it
on the ground. Before shipping the log
the Gilmauite peeled of the bark care
fully and laid it aside. After the walnut
log was taken away he cut down 8 big
black oak of the same dimensions as the
walnut, which he carefully measured,
and taking the bark from its place Of
concealment carefully and deftly tackled
it on the black oak log.
The job was 80 we'll and artistically
dono that no one but an expert could
have told the difference. He then ship
ped it with other logs to Cincinnati
where he sold the oak log for walnut fol
$106. He then left for home, but he hai
not been gone long before the Cincinnati
firm discovered the fraud and started
after him. They left the city, it il
reported, last night for Gilman County
where they expect to oyertake the slicl
lumberman and make him refund, O
prosecute him for fraud.

Water Cure For Consumption.

CHICAGO, July 2S.-The announce
ment that DR.. w. n. Burt would explain
a now theory in the cure of consumption
caused large attendance at Saturday
nights meeting of the Chicago Medical
Society at the Grand Pacific Hotel, Chi
cago. Dl. Burt's paper WAS mastery in
its exhaustive treatment of the disease
He did not disappoint his audience in
the absolute novelty of his theory. Eight
months ago, when reading of the won
derful change brought about in the obs-
sity of Primes Bismarck through refrain
ing from the use of water and carbonhy-
drates, it appeared to him that an oppo.
site treatment ought to result in the cure
of all wasting diseases. His experiments
since have justified him in the statement
that excessive eating and the excessive
use of water will cure fifty per cent. of all
consumptiTe cases in their first aud sec
ond stages. He explained at length the
tonic influence and power in building tip
tissue possessed by water, which forms
hree-fourths OF the human body, and
stated that even in health six pints day
were necessary to meet the water waste,
and in disease twelve pints charged with
carbolic acid The doctor claimed it
would give the very life to the system
and tissues demanded in consumption.
Ho pronounced the bacteria theory, so
popular of late, as pure nonsense. In
detail his treatment consisted of the free
Use OF water every hour in the day, nine
hours sleep regular, and if possible the
sea or mountain air. Above all, the
patient must look upon the drinking OF
water for all time as his life. Heredity
was the great danger. aud DR.. Burt advo.
Gated the passing by Congress of a Law
forbidding the marriage of consumptives
With this in force one hundred years
from now consumption would not exist
in the United States.

The Begging Question.

The farmers are on top in the jute
baggiug fight. It is now only about half
the price it was before they tackled it.
They are still keeping up the fight, and
intend to fight it to the end.
Our merchants are laying in big sup.
ply of sugar sacks, as substitute for the
regular jute bagging. This is well for
our farmers, as it is both cheap aud hea-
w. We learn that it weighs about q
pounds to the yard, and is to be sold at7l
cents.
Instead of keeping up the fight at loss,
as was done last year, the farmers will,
this year, lose absolutely nothing in
weight, and will get the covering at a less
cost than they did Last year.
We are not informed as to what guam
tity of sugar sacks has been bought, but
It is reasonable to suppose that the supply
will not be equal to the demand. for the
reason that it is heavier and cheaper
than the jute bagging, 1t Itmay, therefore,
be we'll for our planters to investigate this
matter, and make such arrangements as
they deem most desirable.
In connection with this, we wish to
coll the attention of our farmers to the
Importance of packing their cotton in
standard bales-four hundred pounds.
Six per cent of the gross weight Of
bale is knocked OF for the bagging and
ties. The farmer, then, should put on 6
pounds of bagging and ties, for every
hundred pounds OF the gross weight of
the bale. If he puts on less than this
amount of bagging and ties, he forces
himself to submit to loss of lint cot.
ton.
There is obliged 10 be loss to the
farmer Of about GO cents hundred for
any excess in the bale over 400 pounds
If a bale weighs 600 pounds the tare is SO
pounds. If only "a pounds of bagging
aud ties is put on, the farmer loses -
pounds of lint cotton.
Abbeville County has been losing, by
packing heavy bales, enough money to
pay her taxes.
There isn't farmer in Abbeville
County, who packs his cotton in 600
pound bales, who will rot lose an amount
equal to his taxes.
The fight on jute bagging, and the
opening of the eyes of the people TO their
loss in packing heavy bales, will be
worth to this county alone, in years to
come, hundreds of thousands Of dollars.
When the people find out that they are
losing from so cents to 81 bale on heavy
bags, they will save by reducing the
weight. This together with their victory
in reducing the price of jute, should be a
sufficient recompense for their trouble,
even if nothing else is gained.-AbbeuiNe

a Bluff Bored For Honey.

A Louisville dispatch says: "A sue
cessful boring for honey has been made
in North Tennessee. For MANY years
swarms of bees have been noticed by
boatmen at Fox Bluff, ou the Cumberland
river, near franklin, Ky. The bluff is
ITO feet high, and the rivers channel
runs directly under it. The bees have
been observed about a big fissure near the
centre of the bluff, and the opening could
not be reached from above or below with
out great danger of being stung to death.
As the bees had never been robbed it was
believed a large amount ofhoney is stored
in the cliff. Recently wellborer, named
Starks, visited the bluff and was ct
once impressed with the idea that he
could reach the wonderful honey store
house with his drill. After some coaxipg
he persuaded a number of farmers to un-
dergo the expense, and three inch hole
was bored from the top of the bluff. at
a depth of eighty.fye feet the drill struck
the honey. Barrels and tubs by the
score we're filled and carried of to the
neighboring farms, and the syndicate has
sent to Louisville for more receptacles. u
