ERIN's STRUGGLE.
Only Small Area of the Country Now
in an Excited State.

in an Excited State.
LONDON, June 9.-Mr. Balfour, chief
secretary of Ireland, in the House of Com
mons to-day, replying to Thomas Sexton,
said that all the clauses of the crimes act
dealing with boycotting and intimidation
can be withdrawn from the whole of Ireland
excepting county Clare and some of the
baronies In which the plan Of campaign
still exists.
Upon the debate on the governments
education bill being resumed Mr.. Balfour
said that Ireland's share Of the budget would
be applied to freeing elementary education
in much the same way as in England. An
early opportunity would be taken to deal
completely with the problem Of compulsory
education.
LITTLE HOPE FOR THE IRISH BILL.
He had little hope that the Irish measure
would pass this session. but it had been in
troduced in order to enable the members to
consider it during the recess. The
minimum grant for Ireland for this
purpose, said Secretary Balfour,
would be $4,000 After a futile
attempt by the radical and Irish members
to defeat the government by straTagem in
the absence of the members attending the
Ascot races, an acrid discussion arose on
Mr.. LEAFS new clause of the Irish land bill
providing that the land commission be re-
constituted.
CHARGES OF THE OPPOSITION.
TIE opposition accused the government
of desire TO decry and thwart the only
body possessing Irish confidence because it
prevented the greedy vender landlords
from obtaining exorhitant prices.
Mr.. Smith repudiated Sir Harcourt's i'm
putation OF a fraudulent intention on the
part Of the government, and denounced his
violence Of language.
Mr.. Gladstone challenged Mr.. Smith to
quote violent language or words imputing
fraud.
Mr.. Goschen warmly defended Mr..
Smith.
Numerous Irish amendments were re-
jected and finally Mr.. Balfour, after declar-
ing that the gorge rose, not from Sir Will
liam Vernon Harcourt's unfsirness. which
was expected, but from his iutolerable to-
diousness, carried the clause under cloture,
but at the same time he proposed an amend:

Three Men Burned to Crisp and Six

PARSONS. KAN. June 9-The most disas-
trous wreck that ever occurred on the L.
K. and I. railroad took place yesterday be-
tween Savannah and Frink. Three men
were burned to crisp and six were injured

engines we're totally demolished and the
wreck took fire and thirty cars were burned
Two freight trains were ordered to pass at
Frink. One Of them arrived at the station
ahead of the other and the engineer seeing
a train on a side track supposed ii was the
train he had orders to pass, and did not
stop for orders One of the men who was
burned to death was the head brakeman,
and the other two are unknown. The
brakeman could only be identified by the
finding of switch key tied to his body.

CHARLESTON, s. c., June 9. 9.-Policeman
Quinn, six-foot member Of the force,
threatens to become an issue in the muni-
cipal campaign. Quinn Joined reform
club, and, absenting himself from the sta
tion last night. undertook 10 run the
Twelfth ward club and reform the Demo-

the members of the force from taking an
active part in politics, and do not even
allow them to vote in uniform. To-day
Officer Quinn was suspended from the
force and will probably be removed by the
mayor tomorrow. The reformers will
take him up.
The reform primary election for delegates
TO the June convention to-day was not a
howlIng success. Only 557 votes were poled
out Of total club membership Of 2 800
Only seven out OF the twelve ward clubs
elected delegates. In the Seventh ward the
managers got on big bender and the
ballot box disappeared. The bolt from the

the solid citizens who joined the reform
movement in its inception. and the new
movement, it is thought, will soon die a

Keenlng BreedIng Stock.

Breeding hogs. especially, should
not be allowed to get fat. A good de-
velopmcnt Of bone and muscle is far
more important than an accumulation
of fat.
The kind OF food that is supplied
makes n considerable difference in
this, and then in ad dition q good pas
turc should be supplied where they
can have good range. This affords
them good opportunity 10 take exer-
else. Some animals seem more inclin-
ed to lay on fat than others, and while
this is no fault with fattening hogs,

thrifty condition is all that is neces-
sary and the nearer they can be kept

Ignorance in Dairying.

National Stockman: In no business
perhaps does ignorance have to be
pal for more promptly than in dairy
ing. When we churu, il we don't
know the right degree OF temperature
for the cream we may either waste
many hours at the crank or else have
the butter come too soon, with flavor
and texture ruined. II we don't know
how to feed our cows we may be vast
ing feed every day; we may be dairy
ing with the wrong breed, and so on
through the whole business, IL we do
not have the knowledge we are always
in the way OF making heavy losses.
In the present state OF dairy science 1t
is inexcusablc for anyone to go blindly
about his work when he, by little
reading and study, can be as fully in
formed on every dairy subject as the
most expert.

An animal raised on the farm will

On the farm something is always
growing while you are sleeping.
Generally, early planting should be

1t is poor economy to purchase good

A good horse blanket saves feed,
prevents disease and Is credit TO the
owner.
Even II stock are allowed to run out,
it will be better to feed q little hay or

Beauty in horse, II combined with
good animal, increases its value very
materially.

The amount OF stable manure can
DO greatly increased by supplying

More Important Measures Through

The United States Senate Is shap-
ing its business with firm determination
TO adjourn March 4 without leaving be-
hind it anything for an extra session. Tho
fertilization appropriation bill comes up
next as unfinished business, and the PEN
sion appropriation bills on the calendar
and the District OF Columbia appropria-
ton bill, soon to be reported, will follow
in order. An effort will be made to pass the
Indian depreciation claim bill, and sand
wiched between the above namsd appropri-
alton bills will probably be the eight hour
bill and the copyright bill. An attempt Is
also being made to secure acton upon the
House bankruptcy bill.
Not one of the thirteen annual APP
preparation bills has been finally passed by
both branches of Congress and sent to the
President. But ons of these bills has
PASSED the Senate--the army bill. While
the present CT ndition of tho appropriation
bills is not en- ,ouraging as compared with
their state of progress in previous Con-
crosses, no doubt Is entertained by exper-
fenced members of both the House and the
Senate of the ability of Congress to COM
plete its necessary legislation before
