CARLISLE EXPLAINS.
Silver Bill When 1t Passed the Senate.

Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator Cars
Isle has something interesting to say sfAp
excuse for not having voted for thssisR
bill when it passed the senate. Het&fth-
held his vote when the roll was called,
and his action is being severely criticised
by some of his Democratic colleagues .
Mr.. Carlisle said to-day he was aware
certain people were disposed to censure
him because he did not jump at the crack
of the party whip and rush headlong
into tho arms of the mine owners who are
anxious to dispose OF their products
He Durposely withheld his vote, because
he could not consCientiously vote for the
bill as it was amended, and if anybody
can make capital out of his actions they
are at liberty to do SO. He voted for the
free coinage proposition with some Els
luctance, but when they followed q f3at
up with proposition to make silgisp GER
titicates legal tender he called q halt.
Now he said, "even theasupreme
court will not go that far, and5f am too
good a Democrat to vote to- make a
piece of printed paper, t5such as
this displaying So certifiahte) legal
tender when gold and silver iAthe basis
of our currency. Why, ChiefsAIustiea:
Chase, who when the secretary 81 ATh6
treasury issued the first silver certif-
Gates, voted with the majority of the
supreme court against making them
legal tender. President Grant then
packed the court by adding two legal
tender judges TO overthrow Chase"
In view of these facts Senator Carlisle
said he could not vote for the bill on its
final passage, and he is willing to take
the consequences. He does not hesitate
to say "the men who are bowling the
10 udest for free coinage are in some
instances personally interested IN silver
mines. They are not sincere in their de-
mand for free coinage, and have no idea
congress il going to go that far. They
Go not expect to go beyond limited COIN
age, and at the proper time they will be
found voting for that end.
He concluded by saying he is not pre-
pared to sink his deep-seated convictions
on this subject and follow blindly the
leadership of the silver fanatics.

Leave the brotherhood.

Members of the Order of Railway
Brakemen in Reading, Pa, who are
employed on the Reading railway, have
confirmed the published rumors that
thev had received verbal information
from the company that it was desirable
that they should leave the organization.
Whether or not the movement is general
is not known. This order, following so
closely on the order to the conductors to
quit their organization, has created
considerable commotion among the rail-
way EMPLOYEES

II is not known as vet who his successor
will be. The indications point towards
r. IA. Wood, assistant general freight
agent. This change will neccessitate
the making of probably half dozen
promo tons. 1t is not unlikely that f.
b. Whitney, assistant general freight
agent at Kansas City, will be brought to
headquarters and installed as general
freight agent. If civil service rules are
to be observed. he undoubtedly heads
the list of aspirants.

There is absolutely no protection thrown
about the matter of arranging pairs in the
house. The only rule upon the subject
says that after the first call of the day all
pairs shall be announced by the clerk. The
practice is for members making the pairs
to hand the announcement of them to the
clerk, who sees they are printed in The
Record. No questions are asked, and the
members fix up the pairs to suit them.
selves. Thus, when a member is absent
and is not paired, he can telegraph to a
colleague and find some member on the
other side in the same situation, when it is
arranged that The Record shall state that
these two absent members were paired.
One member who went to Europe with
out taking the ]precaution to get a pair was
used to protect half a dozen members in
one day. 1t was also found that he was
paired with a member who never knew the
other man was absent from Washington.

LIFE ON A WATER FARM.
There Is Profit in Raising Fish and Frogs
for Market.


for Market.
1t has not been many years since water
farming was added to the possibilities of
agriculture" in Indiana. 1t began as a
diversion. 1t has become a business.
Enough time has now elapsed to demon
strate that water farming may be made
practicable and proitable-at least as prof
liable as some other rural occupation, and
more enticing than the ordinary life of an
agriculturist. AS much money can be
made off an acre of water as off an acre of
land, including well located fish and frog
ponds on the one hand and ordinary farm
ing on the other.
One of the pioneers of water farming in
Indiana is Mr.. Joseph Manlove, of Milton.
Seven years ago he bought a small piece of
low land lying between the White Water
canal and White Water river. He deter
mined to food the low land. and to add to
his possessions the adjoining high land for
park purposes. His place now includes
fourteen acres of water and twenty-one of
land. His business is largely with the
water and only incidentally with the dry
land. His first purpose was to establish a
carp pond, from which the fish market
might be supplied. This was accomplished
in two years with comparative ease. Now
he has practically al unlimited quantity
of this variety of fish. However, the pub
lie taste also calls for bass, and Manlove
determined to add this variety to his sup
ply. His lake is now stocked with a vast
supply of black bass. They have grown
finely, and bass fishing will be put on the
market" Bass promise so much better
than carp that Farmer" Manlove uses his
young carp as food for his bass.
Still another department" has been add
ed to the "farm"-frogs. Four acres of
shallow water, well grown in flags, were
set apart as a breeding place for frogs.
They breed and grow rapidly. Four thou
sam tadpoles were put into this breeding
pen. Many of them are now of a market.
able size, and are worth $3.50 and So a
dozen. In catching them for market a
light at night is used. They stare at the
light, and can be caught and handled with
ease in its glare. In catching large guam.
titles of carp the lake is drained off. In
winter the marketable fish are kept in
small ponds.
1t is interesting to observe the water
farmer at his work. He can use a horse
for side purposes, but he needs neither,
pillow, planter nor reaper. Suppose he has
gone out to feed. He has with him mid
dlings or other grain. He goes to the breed
ing pond, sounds a gong or blows a whistle
and thousands of frogs come hopping from
their shelter. They eat the food
ly, and become so tame that the farmer
handles them as a woman does her pet
chickens. The same food is just the thing
for young and old carp. Fish and frogs
take to grain and grain products" said
Mr.. Manlove, like a boy does to apple
dumping. Part of the season it is not
necessary to feed my stock at all. The
water grass seeds make the finest food for
fish, and at certain times of the year j
rarely prepare a fish for the table that ]
do not find him filed with grass seed."-

Crazy Inventors.

Side by side with the greatest inventions
of the age are classed the craziest offsprings
of the human brain. Today some mighty
Edison patents an idea which lights tbs
world and tomorrow some lunatic offers a
plan by which all humanity can lift them
selves to heaven by their boot straps. In
looking through the patent office you are
surprised at the wisdom and the foolish
ness of mans intellect. The one is as great
as the other, and from the foolish point of
view it would seem that when an idea of a
patent creeps into an inventors house
common sense flies out of his window

A French scientist is said to have discov-
cred a new explosive. 1t is a condensed
liquefied gas, 800 drops of which are con-
fined in a small steel chamber under the
rife barrel. The pulling of the trigger re-
leases one drop, which volatilizes instantly
upon contact with the air and drives the
bullet with extraordinary velocity. There
is no noise or smoke accompanying the dis
charge, and altogether the new discovery
promises to make a revolution in modern
methods.-New York Telegram.

To Make Wheat Bread.

Whole wheat bread, that is so much
recommended now for children and dys-
peptics, is made with one quart of luke
warm water, a little salt, one-half cup
of yeast, one-half cup of sugar, two
large s~poonfuls of molasses, one large
spoonful of shortening, eight and a half
cups of -four. Do not knead it. Stir it
with a spoon to moderately stiff batter and
let it stand over night. In the morning
put it in pans, let it rise, then bake. This
quantity will make two good sized lOaves.
This recipe is vouched for by a mother who
never lets her children eat any other kind
of bread.-EXchange.
