Welded at Last in a Cotton Patch.


About year ago G. w. Strickland, o
young farmer, living about six miles
southwest of Paris, fell in love with Miss
Ida Porter, charming young lady of the
same neighJorhood. The lady's relatives
objected. but the young folks resolved to
elope. Mr.. Strickland got license, but
the issuance of the license was published
in the papers and before chance came
to use it the relatives of the lady saw it
and sent her away to Missouri,
A few weeks ago she came back. Her
relatives thought the affair was ended,
but the young folks still loved each other,
There were some private negotiations OF
which her relatives did not know. An
other license was procured, but the fact
was not published in the papers The
same minister was engaged again. Miss
Ida Porter, who did not usually pick cot.
ton, suddenly became very industriously
inclined, and concluded to help pick out
the crop. She went into the field az
began work. Pretty soon her big brother
not suspecting anything, went to the giI
with a load of cotton, and about the
time he was gone Mr.. Strickland and thu
preacher came along, and right in the cot
ton patch the ceremony was performed
that made the blushing maiden and thu
gallant lover man and wife.-GalvestoI

The Zodiacal Light.

The curious phenomenon of the zodi
neal light may now be seen in the early
morning skies little before sunrise. In
this latitude it takes the form of a por-
tion of an ellipse whose longest diameter
is inclined somewhat from the perpen-
dicular, and may be looked for in that
part of the sky where the sun is about to
appear. Its pearly gray light is caused
by the reflection of the suns rays from
countless swarms of meteors which re-
volve about him at different distances.
1t has recently been suggested that these
meteors are the medium by which the
electrical connection between the sun
and the earth is established; in fact, that
they play the same part in the solar sys-
tenn that the copper wire does in the con-
veyance of electric energy from tne
dynamo to the electric lamp.-New York

seen on Brenham's streets. 1t was a

her cheeks, leaving them for moment
pale as marble.
"Are you getting well?" she asked in a
tone Indicative of great restraint, as if
every expedient for appearing at ease had
slipped beyond her reach. As if at the
sound of her own voice, the blood flowed
back into her face, lighting it with deli

eyes burned with sudden underglow,

Two or three growths of buckwheat
can be grown in the apple orchard in a
single season, says Field and Farm, pro-
vided they are plowed under without
ripening seed. AS the seed is not expen-
siye, this may be better for the land than
to raise only one crop and let it go to
seed. There is not great deal of plant
food in buckwheat, therefore it does not
rob the soil Plowed under, bucllwheat
loosens the soil as few other crops do,
and this on heavy land is often very i'm
portant for apple and pear trees. The
looser the soil the more water it will
hold without hardening the surface,
consequently buckwheat helps to pre-
vent drought

uumbert VIII Never Compromise.

ROME, Aug. 8.-The Italian cabinet
was recently sounded by the French
ambassador to the Vatican on the sub
ject of possible settlement of the
trouble with the papacy by extending
the limit of papal jurisdiction over the
city of Rome, Italy to have the rights
of general nature that might be requi-
site to protect the welfare of the king
dom. When the matter was submitted
to King Humbert he declined to give it
any consideration, and declared that
Rome would forever remain the capital
of united Italy; that he would as soon
think of surrendering his crown as Of
recognizing any other authority in
Rome, and that however much it panied
him to be under the ban of the head Of
Catholic church, it was farthest from
his mind to surrender one iota Of what
had been won with so much sacrifice
and suffering by the Italian people.

Many farmers consider oats as a part
ration most excellent feed for hogs.
Southern Cultivator mentions hearing a
successful farmer speak much in their
praise. His custom was to use equal
parts of corn and oats, ground, and on
this ration his hogs did splendidly and
were exceptionally free from disease.
Against this is an experiment that show
ed very plainly that SOW sucking young
pigs did not thrive well on ration of
about two-thirds oats. The chaff SEEM
ed too much like straw for the sow to
relish them. When the pigs have at
tanned some size ration one-third oats
to two-thirds cornmeal is recommended
as producing good results. For brood
sows and stockers they can be used with
profit where a maintenance ration is the
object sought. Shorts make a better
mixture with cornmeal for SOW suck
ling, as the pigs will gain faster on this
ration.

world is 'fnanifesting marked interest re-
garding the exhibition Of the holy coat
said to be the seamless coat worn by the
Sayiour-which is to take place in the
old Cathedral of st. Peter and st. Helen
in this city. Protestants also manifest
much curiosity in the proposed exhibi-
ton, and it is probable that many thou
sands of people will come to this city
from all quarters of tie globe. Not many
pilgrims have as yet arrived, but as
the ceremony of the exposition of the
sacred garment does not occur until
Aug. 70. this is in no way remarkable.

LONDON, Aug. notwithstanding
the reports that the injury sustained by
Kaiser Wilhelm when he slipped and
fell on the wet deck of the Hohenzollern
was slight and that he was able to walk
the deck the next day, he will remain
at We'll. where he has arrived from
Norway, for two weeks, that his injury
may be attended to. This will prevent
him from attending the review of the
Guards, but it is his intention to attend
the lnaneuvers of the Bavarian and the
Austrian troops later in the season.
