The Letter No. .or B,aohke.

heard a curious case yesterday. 1t was the
complaint of Joseph Blachke. of West H.
dianapolis. against August Wurgler. a real
estate agent, whom he charged with delay
ing a letter addressed to him tBlachke). His
story is that Wurgler wrote him that he
had n letter for him from Germany. con-

an estate. and that he would make known
the contents for Sl5. Blachke supposed the
letter was Tor him, and had Wurgler ar

was discovered that the letter in question
was addressed to Wurgler. SO the charge
could not be sustained, and hc was DIS

showing in product according to the

Three Ancient Trees.

Washington has three trees, each con-
nected with some important event in the
laying out of the town of Washington in
1888. The commissioners who made the
survey began their work under the great
white oak in the front yard of Judge
Andrews old home at Haywood.
Through the following century this was
one of the finest trees in Wilkes county.
Another historical tree is the great pop
lar on the Alexander homestead. In 1890
the first ordination of a Presbyterian
minister west of the Savannah river took
place under that tree. This was Rev.
John Springer, man of noted character
and talents, and who would have been
president of Franklin college had he
lived.
Finally, coming down later in time,
we reach the memorable debate between
Robert Toombs and Benjamin Hill in
1866? This was one of the greatest in
tellectual contests in the history of
Georgia, and will never be forgotten by
those who heard it. 1t took place under
an oak in the grove of Haywood. twas

Story of a Man with a Sure Thing.

This is the reply received as he was or
dering the third round and telling every
one that he had dead sure twenty to one
shot in the second race:
'Put thirty dollars on what?"
This is the answer he made all haste to
send:
son Stick-in-the-Mud to win the second
race. Don't fail"
This is what the ticker said as he told
the bartender to put half dozen bottles
on the ice:
Second -Stick-in-the-M Mud first, Old
Hoss second. Time, l:511S."
This is the dispatch he received as he was
about to order the first of the half dozen
bottles opened:

name in your first telegram"

out of the hotel barroom and started in the
direction of the government pier:

A Young Woman,s Tact.

There was pretty touch of courtesy
in Brooklyn church on recent Sun
day. After the service began some late
corners, evidently strangers, were shown,
other seats being occupied, to the very
front pew. There were four of them and
they scrupulously followed the routine
of worship, rising and remaining seated,
as they noticed those around them doing.
At the hymn before the sermon, having
stood during the singing of all the others,
they rose as well. 1t is the custom of
the congregation, however, to sit for this
hymn, and the four stood alone when the
first note was struck.
Only for a few seconds, for young
woman, church member, who saw the
mistake, rose to her feet to share the
situation with them. An old gentleman
just behind her followed suit, another at
his side Joined the ISLANDERS, and in less
than minute the entire congregation
was on its feet, put there by the quick
tact of one young woman. And the
strangers never knew they had blum
dered.-Her Point Of View in New York

Two Ripeds Meet.

A gentleman slowly sauntering down
Seventeenth street the other night was
startled by shrill whistle that sounded
close behind him. He naturally stopped
and looked around, but saw no one. He
started on, but had proceeded only few
yards when the whistle, louder and
shriller than before, was repeated.
Again he looked around, and again he
saw no one. Then his heart misgave
him, for the hour was almost midnight.
Vague, unutterable fears clutched at his
soul, until his sleek locks grew to resem-
BILE the quilts of that VIGOROUSLY fretful
porcupine.
But suddenly the mystery was solved.
He CHANGED to glance overhead, think
ing that probably, like the May Queen,
he had heard the angels call, when he
perceived a parrot in cage that dan
gled from a second story window. The
eyes of the feathered and featherless
bipeds met, and the parrot quickly and

Lord Wolseley, since his nineteenth
year, has served in nearly every impor-
tant military expedition in which British
valor has engaged. He served in the
second Burmese war as an ensign. AS
lieutenant he served in the Crimea
and was twice wounded. Attaining a
captains rank, he served in India and
received brevet majority. In 1860 he
became lieutenant colonel and served
in the China war, while in 1S62-7O, as
colonel, he served in Canada. AS major
general he commanded the troops in the
Ashantee war, 1874; and as lieutenant
general, in 1879, in the south African
war. In 1882 he served in Egypt, and
in 1sS4-5 commanded in the Soudan
campaigns. He received $4,000 for
services in Ashantee and e20, 700 for
Egypt. In October, 1890, he became

Nicoi Andersen, assistant chemist at

station, states with truth that American
butter in Europe is deprecated, not be-
cause it cannot be made we'll in this
country, but it lacks the uniformity,
keeping qualities and flavor of the Dan
ish or Schleswig- Holstein export butter.
The difference is caused, he says, in a
large measure from improper treatment
while ripening the cream. 1t has been
shown by the Wisconsin and Texas sta
tions that the yield of butter from
ripened cream is IS per cent. larger than
from sweet cream. II. w. Conn, of this
country; V. Storck, of Denmark, and II.
Weijman, of Germany, hold that certain
bacteria play an important part in the
process Of ripening, but no study has
thus far been made of the changes that
really take place in this process.
The professor hopes to find time in
the near future to examine into this
matter from an economical and sanitary
standpoint and demonstrate: First, what
happens when cream ripens? Second,
how does the ripening of cream infu-
ence the quality Of butter? Third, at
what stage is cream ripe and by what
easy test shall this be ascertained?
Fourth, a certain bacteria makes butter
tallow, the butter principles oil, etc.
This being the case the professor queries:
Would a cream, separated by centrifu-
gal force from new MIXED milk after
pasteurizing Cheated to 70 degs.), cool
ing and incubation with pure culture
of the bacterian thought to produce this
$50 called ripening, produce a better,
more uniform butter than now obtained?

Cheese Making I'm Ontario.

Mr.. Bells factory is considered to be
the best in Canada. 1t was selected
for dairy school last summer, and
over eighty cheese makers were here,

look at the way the curd is worked. For
milk testing we used DR.. Babcock's test in
connection with the Quevenne lactom-
eter, the corrected lactometer reading
added to the percentage of fat This
divided by four gives us the correct
amount of solids not fat. Taking per
cent. for average solids in milk, we can
easily find out if any water is added, and
if SO how much. Before setting the
milk every vat is tried as to the ripeness
of the milk with the rennet.
AS soon as the milk is ripe rennet is
added (no color now, the milk being at
a temperature of SO dogs. Then comes
