Good Farming.
Country Life.

Country Life.
1t takes a sensible, well-informed
man to make a good farmer.
The farmer comes in contact at
every turn in his daily work with the
elements of great power for or against
him. Sunshine, air, water, heat and
cold, and their combined action upon
soils, growing plants and animal life
these mysterious forces are ever
present with him and would hasten
to do his bidding if intelligently di-
rected. Prof. Vile, the eminent
French scientist, says that out of 100
prerequisites to successful agricul-
ture, nature furnishes, SO the other 7
manmust furnish, they are absolute
and will take no denial.
What are these seven essentials
and whence are they derived and
how used? TO satisfactorily settle
these points the farmer must be able
to read the textbook Of his calling,
the book of nature, which is always
open before him and full of the very
knowledge that will light up his
way and make him master Of the
most difficult situation. In this
great volume is recorded on every
page in bold and living letters =
Where? When? Which? How /?
Why?
An intelligent answer to each of
these very significant interrogations
settles the contest, and nature yields
her most valued treasures without
protest or delay.
May-be.so's will not do, guess work
will not do, moon vargaries and luck
signs will not avail-nothing short OF
the truth will take the prize.

The professions of Law, Medicine,

Epoch.

The transition from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the in
dividual. Such remarkable event
is treasured in the memory and the
agency whereby the good health has
been attained is gratefully blessed.
Hence it is that so much is heard in
praise of Electric Bitters. So many
feel they owe their restoration to
health, to the use of the Great Alter

CAN SAVE IT'S BACON.

ASain in all seriousness the AP-
PEAL calls upon its evening con-
temporary to subscribe 10 cents to
the Pratt fund A person who
has never given q cent to charity
may not know how it feels, and
we can assure our neighbor that
after the good deed Is done, it
will feel mont the worse for it.
To some people giving ten cents
away may feel like the first plunge
in an ice water bath, but after you
have tried it the whole BODY glo VS.
with warmth and electricity. We
should hate to have it go forth to
the world that a single newspa-
per in Carson would refuse to put
up so small a sum as this. The
Appeal fixed the limit low for the
express purpose Of giving the
Tribune chance to subscribe, but
we see lat grave mistake was
made. The limit should bave
been five cents. There is yet an
other day in which the Tribune can
save its bacon and give the money.

Liability of an Interruption of the
 Friendly R e1ations With This Coun-
 try.
 SANTIAGO, Chili, Oct. 5.-The Chilian government has 80 far evinced no inten- tion of abandoning it's position that it has a perfect right to arrest persons as they enter or leave the precincts of the American legation. But while strenuous ly insisting upon the possession of this abstract right the government is at present making no attempt to put it in practice. The partisans of Balmaceda, who took refuge under Minister Egan's roof, are still there, and no arrests have been made during the past few days. It cannot be learned that the government contem- near future the right of arrest that is claimed. But it is the present unsatisfactory situation can instructions from the state department at Washington, Minister Egan has given the junta officially to understand that if the Chilian authorities continue to maintain their present attitude, the friendly rela- tions between Chili and the United States will be interrupted. The junta's reply to this notice is awaited with great interest. What Minister Egan's next step will be in case the reply is unfavorable is not known.
 The United States flagship San Fran cisco, which is returning from the north, is expected to reach Valparaiso some time this week.

At the University Club.

At the Boys club everything is full of
 activity. From fifty to seventy-fve boys
 come there nightly and enjoy themselves.
 A bath room is connected to the large,
 comfortable game room. The latter is
 covered with sawdust so that the boys can
 romp and have good time and yet not
 make much of noise. And play they
 must, for no boy is allowed in the rooms who does not have book or 8 game. A savings bank is another department of the club Between thirty and forty dollars were deposited last year by the young fnanciers. Glasses in wood carving and clay modelling will soon be started
 The club is supported by contributions to the extent of $1,200. Three hundred of this is contributed by the students of Yale and the rest by the citizens of New Haven. The rooms are in charge of MT. H. w. Mason, but members of the uni | versity are in attendance every night and occasionally some of the townspeople. It
 is hoped, however, that more will come
 during the present year and help along the good work that has already been so useful.

 Loss of s15O,oOO-Hard Work of the F1remen-RaiIs of the Fitchburs Road Badly Warped.
 BOSTON, Oct. 5.-The immense packing | establishment of John P. Squire 6 Co.
 in East Cambridge and Somerviile was partially destroyed by fire tonight, en-
 tailing 8 loss of about $150,000. The
 buildings form hollow square, compris- ing = several acres, fronting on Gore l street, East Cambridge, and extending north 800 or 600 feet, being founded on the westerly side by the tracks of the Grand Junction railroad tracks and on
 the northerly side by the Fitchburg rail
 road. The fire caught in the hog build ing on the northerly end of the square, a wooden structure four stories high, 200 by 60 feet, in which were 1,5O0 live hogs These animals were roasted to death and the building laid flat. From here the flames were driven into
 the northwesterly wing of the main build ing, which was ninety feet high, of brick and 264 by 160 feet. The three lower stories were used for cutting up and dressing hogs, while the upper portion was used as a refrigerator. This section was practically destroyed, only the walls re- maining. The stock of dressed hogs was light, owing to the excellent fall trade, and on this account the loss will not be as heavy as it would have been earlier in tor wing and about half way down the westerly side of the square was a thick brick wall, which proved barrier to the flames, which did not reach be- yond that point, thus leaving intact the lower end of that side and the whole of the large building fronting on Gore street on the south. The row of buildings on the easterly sides were not burned, although covered nearly all the time with with huge showers of sparks. Assistance was sent from Boston, and with the fire service of the establishment the fire was kept within bounds. The establishment of the North Packing company, a short distance to the northwest, was in danger jury. A carload of lumber standing on a spur track and also owned by the Squires was burned. The cause of the fire is unknown, but the most probable theory is that it was caused by locomo- tive spark. MT. Squire estimates his loss at $150, ,000, and has upon his entire estab- lishment and insurance of $700,000, in $500 and $1 ,000 policies in nearly every company in New England. The firm con sists of John P. Squire, Frank o. Squire and Frederick o. Squire. The works were running to it's full capacity and employed 900 men. Had the wind shifted it would have been impossible to save the remain ing buildings, saturated as they were with oil and grease.
 The fire was unusually fierce and the firemen were badly handicapped in their work. The rails of the Fitchburg road were warped by the heat and all traffic was suspended for several hours. The fire broke out shortly after o'clock and is still burning, although there is no danger before it has burned itself out.

He was five feet seven inches in height and had seven dol lars in his clothes. It is doubtful wheth- CT he was getting on or off the train, as the fact that he had money shows that he did need to steal ride.

This well had been do- ing 5000 barrels day, but when at tempt was made this morning to lift out the tools used in drilling the flow increased to the above figure. No further attempt was made to get the tools, and the oil is running all over the ground, at least one sixth of the production being lost.
