Another Farmers Trust.

The Farmers Alliance continues to
show the greatest admiration for the
trust as the finest modern method of
carrying on large business. The other
day we noticed the project for a farm
ers' trust to control the production of
cotton in the Southern States; and
this week advices from Kansas show
that there is plan afoot for the forma.
ton of grain and live stock trust in
the States of Kansas, Missouri, Ne
braska and Iowa. The plan, as out
lined by the President of the Kansa
Farmers Alliance, is to build storage
houses in each Congress district, to
form distinct alliance out of the sub.
alliance ia each district and to have
agents at Kansas City, st. Louis, and
Chicago who will inform the district
alliances of the state of the market.
The trust will know how much grain
and how many cattle its members have
on hand. Every day the agents of the
trust are to telegraph to such farmers
as "are hardest pressed for cash" to
send certain amount of grain or cat
tie. No member of the Alliance is to
sell grain or cattle except to the trust,
and he must wait till the trust makes q
requisitiOn. The amount necessary to
supply the market each day is to be
divided among the districts equally.
"The hardest thing we have to deal
WITH" says the President of the Kan.
sas Alliance, sis fixing the price. We
mean to ascertain the exact cost of the
product, and add a reasonable profit to
it. This will give US a starting price
that can be easily maintained. The
new scheme is modelled after the
Whiskey Trust. Of course you will
say our principles will not admit OF it,
but we have decided that we must fight
the devil with fire that is, we must
| fight with trusts and combinations.
While this scheme will reverse matters
by putting the stock men and grain
men at our mercy, we do not think
any injury will result. The scheme
looks visionary, perhaps, but it will
surely be a CO."
The scheme would be difficult enough
to carry out, but it is interesting as
another proof of the readiness of the
farmers in the Alliance to adopt the
methods which they denounce most
bitterly. Fighting the devil with fire
is perhaps more effective than fighting
him with resolutions; and now that
the Alliance has shown its intention to
form trusts of its own, isn't it about
time for it to cut out from its platform
all remarks uncomplimentary to trusts,
combinations and mOnOpOlies, or to
amend by the addition of the words
Except farmers trusts, combinations
and mOnOpolies. IN Y. Sun.

Butter is scarce in Middl etown-so
scarce indeed that some of our house
wives cannot secure it. The reason of
the shortage is no doubt due to the
fact that farmers do not attend to the
cattle as they should, and are there
fore unable to make very much butter.
The creamery is not doing a very big
business just now, owing to lack of
milk. The butter from the creamery
can find ready sale at 80 cents a
pound, and at Townsend it is selling
as high as 35 cents per pound.

Because the Times is giving the

don't you gamble that way. There is
an innumerable throng who never get
their names in the paper and who are
sick with hope deferred. A surer and
inst as respectable a way to make
money is to try the faro bank. Both
are alluring and both equally illegal.

The Institution offers superior advantages
in Literature, Science and Art. Only the best
talent is employed to give instruction in the
different departments.
The situation is one of remarkable beauty.
The Institute has twenty-eight acres of land
within the corporation, but so located as to
give the school all the privacy of the country,
while near enough to the town to secure any
advantages it may offer.
The health record is unsurpassed. During
the last ten years there have been two cases
of pneumonia, one of typhoid fever, no case Of
diphtheria, scarlet fever or measles. ChillS
have been strangers, and bilious fever almost
unknown. The average of medical bills since
the organization of the school has beel about
25 cents per pupil for the scholastic year.
The Institution is the ~unincumDered prop
erty of the BaptiStS, and it is the only prop
erty owned by them in the state used exclu
sively for the education of girls.

his intestines falling out. Officers at

away. Messengers came to Concord ap-
pealing for the Cabarras Black Boys

A BlOOd-TingIing Ambuscade.

The rocky wall of the canyon re-
sounded with the crash of u score Of
firearms. The driver with a convul-
sive gasp, toppled forward out of his
seat, his hand still clinching the reins.
One of the troopers clapped his hand to
his forehead, his reins falling useless
upon his horses neck, and reeled in
the saddle rs his charger whirled about
and rushed, snorting with fright, down
the narrow road. At the instant of the
firing the sounds of dozen ''spats"
told where the leaden missiles had
torn through the stiff canvas cover of
the ambulance; and Sherrick, with
banched face, leaped from the riddled
vehicle and plunged heavily forward
upon his hands aud knees Two of
the troopers sprang from their saddles
and. crouching behind boulder across
the road, opened fire up the opposite
hillside. The sergeant and his COM
rade, bending low over their horses
necks, came laundering back down the
canyon just in time to see the mules
whirl about so suddenly as to throw
the ambulance on it's side. The iron
safe was buried in the shallow ditch,
the wagon bed dragged across the
PROSTATE form OF the paymaster, roll
ing him over and over half dozen
times. and then. with a wreck of cam

tering at their heels, the four mules

A Remarkable Diamond,

rye diamond was recently found
IN lic De Beers Consolidated Mines at
Kimberly, South Africa, by a native,
says the Jeaoelers' Weekly. It was in
two pieces. one wei Ching 10 1-2 carats
and the other % 1-2 carats. The re-
markable feature of the stone is its
shape, as, with The two pieces jointed,
it measures 2 IA inches long, / inch
broad and 3-4 of an inch thick.
1t is crystallized more in the form of
ordinary quartz. except that. instead
of being sexagonal, it is of the pris-
matte form, having only three sides.
At one end-the base-it has a fat
cleavage plane on the slant. and there
is no doubt that, to make it perfect
crystal, there is another piece about
three-quarters of an inch long that
should be added to it and which may
yet be found ia the sorting.
At the other end, or top. it comes to
blunt point, and it is this piece that
was broken off. 1t is of a light brown
color. To any one not Thoroughly
acquainted with rough diamonds it
would appear a piece of brown quartz,
as the cleayed or broken end naturally
forms the base of the quartz forma-
ton. as if it had grown on the rocks
The coating is more like that of the
river diamonds 1t is valued at $4,000.
