where they should remain II hours
or more before planting. The sun
must not be allowed to touch their
tender roots even for a minute.
Discard all sick and weakly plants
and set out only the vigorous young
Saplings. The land where the trees
are to be planted should be well
plowed in order TO sweeten the soil
by letting in the sun and air. When
setting out, have the roots in box
or bucket of slushy soil. Spread out
the roots in hole previously made,
and pack down the soil firml y around
them. Do not plant too deep, but
keep the top lateral roots about an
inch above the ground after the soil
is filed in otherwise the growth
of the tree is long delayed till it can
send out fresh surface roots. Place
a mulching of some kind about each
tree in order to retain moisture, and
keep well watered. Keep down the
weeds and for the next year let them
grow as they please without trimming
or pruning. In the seed bed and
nursery the ant is an active enemy
and has special fondness for young
citrus leaves. They should be kept
off by all application of air-slaked
lime or wood ashes. ..-..

Homicide.

The Coroner's inquest was completed last
night in the case of Marguerite Castrine,
alias May Sidney Mignon, who was killed
by John j. Barnett on the 9th ult, at 5

mony as follows:

THE SILVER ISSUE.
Arguments Before the House Committee for
and Against Free Cninare

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-Before the House
Committee on Coinage to-day, ex- Congress
man Warner of Ohio, Chairman of the Ma
tional Silver Committee, made an argument
for free coinage. Congressman-elect War
ner of New York protested against addi-
tional silver legislation. Stephen w. Nichol
son of Boston said it was untrue that New
England was unit against free coinage,
and asserted that many people in that sec
ton were in favor of additional silver legis-
lation.
Members of Congress say the opposition
to silver legislation shown at the Republic
can caucus last night renders it certain that
nothing will be done on the subject this ses-
sion.

financial reform, which cannot be carried
