Now ut this writing we are having
a little blizzard, snow is about one
foot deep and has drifted quite bad

little here. = Threshing is not all
done by any means. Elliott 4 Ad-

fifteen jobs threshed and those in the

Hint. for the Home.

Parker House Rolls.-Rub half q teaspoonful of butter and lard each into two quarts of sifted flour; into the middle pour one pint of boiled milk, after cooling, and add one hslf a cupful of fresh yeast, one hall q cupful of sugar and little salt. Mix and let stand to rise; work and let it rise again. Make in rolls, let stand until light; rub over with new milk and bake in quick oven.
 Fricandeaux of Veal.-Lard four pound fllet of veal. Cut up one onion, one stalk of celery, one carrot, one turnip, and two sprigs of parsley, and put in braising-pan; sprinkle with salt. Lay the veal on top and pour around it quart of water. Cover the pan and bake two hours, basting occasionally. When done, take up and serve with white sauce and walnut catsup.
 Stewed Cabbage.-Chop a small cabbage fine, and put 1t into kettle with q tablespoonful of pork drip pings, and two teacupfuls of sweet milk. Let it boil until tender, add ing milk as it boils away. Season to taste with butter, pepper and salt and serve at once.
 For Furniture.-A good furniture polish consists of an ounce of linseed oil and two of turpentine, or fifteen ounces of white wax, one ounce of powdered yellow resin and quart of spirits of turpentine; stir until dissolved, lay it on with cloth and polish with flannel.
 Old oak is polished with a little dry beeswax rubbed in with piece of cork.
 Polish a mahogany dining-table with piece of flannel, upon which melted wax has been poured.
 Many old housekeepers prefer beeswax and turpentine for polish ing furniture, to linseed oil and turpentine.
 As to Velvet.-If you have been foolish enough to buy cheap cot ton velvet, throw it away when it shows signs of wear But if your velvet which is now a little old was of good quality to start with, there is no end to the wear you may get out of it. An old skirt will make an odd basque, always useful and pretty. An old basque will cover hat or bonnet frame. Even small pieces of velvet will trim hat, or add touch of richness in collars and cuffs to a woolen gown. You can. with little care, freshen up a piece of velvet wonderfully. Brush carefully, and steam to raise the sunken pile. Two persons, their hands protected from the steam, are required to do the work. While one holds the heated iron with its smooth surface up- turned, the other, throwing a very wet towel over it, presses the wrong side of the velvet down upon the iron, so that the rising steam forces the pile into place, and continue this as long as possible. Lastly, the wrong side of the velvet is drawn quickly across the surface of the iron itself.

Rain Rolling Hot.

It is hoped that W. S. Barton of California, a miner and prospect or, is veracious gentleman. A storm of boiling hot rain is calcula- ted to take the juice out of creduli- ty, but as he locates it in Death Val ley, an exhaustive argument is not necessary to convince minds that MT. Barton, at least, has a nodding acquaintance with truth.
 A queer region is Death Valley, and the discriminating Forty-niners who had a nice sense of the fitness of names made no mistake in christ ening the sink of the Amargosa river. The valley is in the county of Inyo, between the Panamint mountains and the Amargosa range, and it is there that the Amargosa river is swallowed up and forever after lost to sight. In the deepest part the bed lies 150 feet below the level of the sea, and the rocky walls on either side rise l,500 feet above its level.
 The entire valley is a desert, the air excessively dry and suffocatingly hot. No man has ever explored its area, for the reason that it is impos- sible to sustain life long enough to travel its awful waste, which is eight miles wide and forty miles long. The air is poisonous as we'll as in- tensely hot, the thermometer ex- posed to it's influence often showing a temperature of 125 degrees. It was while attempting an explora- tion of its valley-with the ther- mometer 1l5 degrees at midnight that MT. Barton and his party were showered by boiling water, and es- capped scalding only by getting un- der close camp cover. Death Val ley is one of the best places in the world to avoid, and it is difficult to surmise what reward even the most adventurous explorer could hope for in getting upon its cruel sands. It is presumed that the valley is of volcanic origin, and that unextin- guished subterranean fires render it so fatal to man and beast.--Chicago Inter-Ocean.

A Wolf Nuisance,

SENECA, KAN, Sept. lS.-For some time past there has been a large number of wolves noticed in this county, but little was thought of the increase, for the people who saw them simply thought that the ami mals were showing themselves more frequently than usual. It has de- veloped, however, that there has been a rapid increase of the animals and they are now in such numbers as to become nuisance to the farm CTS. For the past three years there has been little hunting in this coun- ty and the result is that the wolves now rove in bands all over the coun- try. It is no unusual thing for the farmers to see several eff the big gray fellows every morning as they get out to work. In some instances they have become so bold that they go directly to the houses and prowl around the yards during the day time. Several farmers report the loss of young stock, such as lambs, pigs, calves, etc, and the people are beginning to fear that when cold weather sets in the animals will be- come so desperate from hunger that they will not stop at stock, but will attack human beings.
 These wolves are not the coyotes, but are the big gray prairie wolves which hunt in packs and become decidedly ferocious during the win ter. There is bounty on their scalps, but the farmers have been so busy getting their immense crops out of the way that they have not had time to hunt down the beasts. Along the creek bottoms and in timber land the animals can be seen at any hour of the day, and it is inn possible to drive on any road in the county at any time without seeing some of them or hearing them howl. Mrs. W. NJ. Wilson, living about seven miles from here, had quite an exciting experience with one of the brutes last week, in which she came of victorious. She had her atten- ton attracted to the yard by great commotion among the fowls, and on going out to see what was the trouble, she saw her pet gobbler swung over the shoulder of q big wolf. who was making for the fence, but the gobbler was too heavy for him and he fell back. By this time Mrs. Wilson was after him with a club, which was the only weapon she could find. Just as the wolf made ready for another go at the fence, Mrs. Wilson gave him blow on the back with her club which made him drop the turkey and show fight. Mrs. Wilson was true grit, and the battle was short and pointed, for at the second blow with the club the wolf fell to the ground stunned, and was quickly dispatched by the plucky woman. The turkey made a dinner for the family, but the wolf will have his hide used as rug this winter.
 The family of Willis Gordon was sitting down to dinner with the doors open, when their attention was called to something in the door way. A wolf was standing there unconcernedly looking in and sniff ing the air like dog. Before gun could be gotten the animal took alarm, and was out of range.

A Financial Crisis Imminent.

A London telegram of September 24 gives very gloomy view of the financial outlook. 1t says: A rep resentative of the Associated Press had an interview with Rothschild, Spevers, Lazard Bros. and other bankers, and they all agree in their statements that further large ship ments of gold are going to America. The Rothschilds dispatched an ad- ditional Sl,000,000 to-day. In an in- terview with Robbert Giffen, head of the commercial department and comptroller of corn returns of the British Board of Trade, he was asked what truth there was in the calculation that England and the continent would be forced to part with gold amounting to f60,000,- : GOO to pay for imports of American grain.
 Giffen ridiculed the estimate. He said that before f10,OO0,O00 in bull lion is sent to America both the Bank of England and the Bank of France would raise their rates of discount and check the drain.
 According to Giffen, not bullion but securities and exports will go to America to pay for grain. Un- doubtedly, he said, there would be heavy drain of gold for several months to come, but payments for grain were not the sole cause of such drain. An important factor in the financial position was the silver question. Stable American houses, he declared, are making prepara- tions to meet the silver crisis, which is now inevitable, by making gold purchases in Europe. When asked if such crisis is inevitable, he re- piled: ''In my opinion it is impos- sible to avert it. The United States has become overloaded with paper currency. The issue of silver cer- tificates to the amount of f12OOO,- : 000 annually was legislative mis- take, and IS bound to bring crash speedily"
 In response to query as to how soon the crash would come, he said: February will realize the worst of the position. I do not see how grave trouble can be averted by re- medial legislation. There is hardly time to avert it, even if the parties in Congress could agree upon the means"

A question has arisen in the In dian Territory as to whether beer may be sold there. The law pro- hibits the introduction of any spir. ituous liquors or wine. It has been the custom of the Indian agent to destroy malt liquors, on the ground, that they are included within the statute restrictions. A recent judi cial decision in the eastern district of Texas held that beer ishot includ- ed in the statute prohibition, so that the Indian agent could not de- rive any authority from the law for his action. Secretary Noble, how ever, has instructed him to continue the confscation of beer sent into the territory.-EX.
