Getting Rid of Surplus Plants.

sN eANS
MARIAN" he said that night, "there
ere several ways for you to get rid OF
your plant surplus. You can throw
them away"
"Go on, Nh. Bailey"
COR you can put a sign out on the
road: plants sold here, and maybe
go right on, Mr.. Bailey. Youknow
It's two miles to the main road"
cor, which 1 cordially endorse, you
can give them away"
"Now you are sensible, John. That
70 what l wanted to do. But to whom
shall we give them that is the aues-
ton"
"Marian, do you not remember
that once last year W q drove seven
teen miles to the head of the valley,
and in all that distance there was but
one garden, and that q very shabby
one, and do you not remember that
there is q school-house two or three
miles away, a rusty old shanty blythe
County road? Now, suppose you
should try to get the school children
to take your surplus stock. l know
something about the district. Nearly
oil the farmers are renters, and the
attendance t1uctuates q good deal.
After a bad season peoplemove away,
until perhaps, there will not be more
than four or five children in the dis
trict; at present there are more than
forty. ! will drive you over there
some afternoon and you can talk
with the teacher and the children"
A few weeks later Mrs. Bailey gath
cred some OF her rose-buds, and filled
several boxes with little plants, all in
the incest possible condition fol
transplanting. Her husband took
her to thefolorn-looking school-house,
and they introduced themselves to the
elderly and tired-out teacher, Miss
Sanborn. In a few minutes Mrs.
Bailey was persuaded to venture up
on q talk with the children" which
she managed in a way that appeared
to John nothing less than pure genius
She told them how beautiful flowers
We're, and how ready to repay good
care. Every one might have a garden:
and at such slight expense. She de
scribed her own garden, and some O
her methods and experiments. Their
she wanted to know if there couldn't
be a garden in the school-yard, close
by the we'll, and if each boy and CIR
would not like to carry some plants
home, and see whether they could be
made to grow. The idea took al
once, and the dear little lady gave
each child q share in the Surplus" o
her garden.
Nov, children, come and see mt
some Saturday afternoon and tel
me how they are growing" said she
'"Then we will find out who has the
best garden. Perhaps we shall be
able to have q flower show in a few
years, and prizes for the pretties
roses. Remember, lots of water fol
your plants; lots of hoeing abou.
them, and lots of attention all sum
mer. Then you'll have loads OF flow
ers."
Before she was half done, ever,
child in the school-roLm was determ
ined to have q garden.

Trifles Make Perfection.

When we consider the n of
working and painstaking care of the
successful mar or woman in every
department OF the worlds work, we
are almost brought to the conclusion
that Carlyle was right when he de-
clared that genius is an immense
capacity for taking pains" The diff
ference between thoroughness and
careless workmanship; or using the
example Of Michael Angelo, finish
makes perfection, and perfection
makes success.
This famous sculptor was visited by
q friend who had seer him at work
upon a certain statue. Angelo was
still chiseling away at the same figure.
"Why," exclaimed the visitor, you
have been idle since l saw you last!"
and he really could see no change in
the statue.
"By no MEANS" answered the sculp-
tor. 81 have retouched this part
and polished that; l have softened
this feature, and brought out this
muscle. l have given more expression
to this lip and more energy to this
limb"
DWELL, WE'LL" saidhis friend, but all
these are trihes."
est may be so," answered Angelo,
"but recollect that trifles make per-
lection, and perfection is no trife."

AN ITALIAN DIsTURBER.

Crispi a few weeks ago, Gre

with permitting the African slaye trade
to be carried on openly, and also asserted
that thirty-fve girls, taken from frontier
towns under the pretext of rescuing
them from slavery, had been dis
tributed among Italian army officers.
Premier Rudini protested against such
accusations, without proof, and the min
lister of war declared that he would not
remain i'll the house unless the charge
was Withdrawn. Such tumult ensued
that the sitting had to be suspended.

OLD HUTCH MISSING.
A SENSATION ON THE CHICAGO
PRODUCE EXCHANGE.
B. r. Hutchinson, the Veteran Grain Specu-
lator, Drops from Sight His Finances
Thought to be in Bad Shape.

CHICAGO, April 29.-B. P. Hutchin-
son, the millionaire grain speculator,
widely known as "Old HUTCH" is miss
ing. 1t is supposed that he is demented,
and his business financial wreck. He
left the city last night, having pur-
chased ticket to Pensacola, Florida.
Before going he paid visits to two of his
favorite drinking resorts, and in each
place announced that he would not be
seen again. It has been a matter OF
common rumor on the board that BUSH
ness misfortunes had unbalanced Old
Hutch's mind. His always eccentric
conduct seemed increasingly dratic Of
late. On the board he had re-

he lost heavily and steadily. n n
morning. when the news Of his depart
ure got out, operators who had deals
with him, began calling for margins. In
q short time w. j.. Hutchinson, his
youngest son, formally announced the
fact that his father was missing, and
that neither his family nor business as
sociates knew his whereabouts. The
house, he said, could not put up any
margins. For time the announcement
caused the widest excitement on the
floor, and the market sharply declined.
Various rumors foated about, it being
stated, among other things, that Old
Hutch was insolvent, and that his
liabilities would be $1,000, 900 in excess
of his assets. On the other hand his
son, while saying he thought his faith
er's mind was unbalanced, and that he
had wandered away, did not think he
was insolvent. He is confident that
everything will be paid up, dollar for
dollar. Many brokers believe Hutchin-
son has simply gone away on a long
projected vacation, and will pretend
great surprise when he hears of the
sensation. A dispatch from Evansville,
Ind, says he was seen there this after
noon, and went south on the Louisville
and Nashville road. He appeared very
nervous.
In an interview tonight, his brother
Russell estimated Hutchlnson's losses
during the past fourteen months at not
less than $2,000,000. Russell does not
think, however, that his actual short.
age to his creditors is more than $780,.
600. He understands that Hutchinson
made over a large portion of his prop
erty to his wife and youngest son some
time ago, and has since lost what he re-
served for himself. Russell thinks the
old speculator went away mortified by
the knowledge that he could not settle,
and resolved to absent himself until
matters are arranged.

The Advice Of the Socialists Having Lit

ScoTrDALE, Pa. April 29.-Affairs in
the coke region are very quiet. The
Keyster plant has come to the cokers'
terms, making the fourth in the district,
and the men seem more confident. The
operators report increased forces, and
men are arriving on every train. The
sensational advice Of the socialists had
little effect, as the men M are very
quiet and peaceable. The cost of
the coke strike up to this, the twelfth
week, is estimated at about three and
one-half million dollars.
Alex. Jones, the socialist, is said to be
the author of circular which is being
distributed through the coke region,
calling upon the working men to arm,
and urging them to seize the militia
arsenals.

SENATOR EDWARDS
Certain of Democratic Success in
New York, New Jersey
and Ohio.

Ex-senator William d. Edwards was
enthusiastic as to the prospects OF Demo-
cratic success throughout the country.
He. however, did not think that Cover
nor Russell would be reelected in Massa-
chusetts. as that State was naturally
Republican by large majority. In
Ohio he thought Governor Campbell
would be elected as, in his opinion, the
Governor had had the best of the argu-
ment throughout the campaign. Flower
was sure winner, in the Senator's opin-
ion. At first, when Fassett started
out it looked as though
the cry of ''Tammany' ~ would
be of enough importance to defeat
Flower. But as the, campaign advanced
the people have discovered that 1t was
simply cry of .Stop thief raised by the
Republicans to hide.their own dishonesty.
Mr. Fassett had mRdeso many blunders
that his defeat is assured.
The county ticket in Hudson fs an ex-
ceptionally strong one, Mr.. Edwards
said. and its election Is certain. This was
evident from the crowds which turned
out at the meetings which had been held
throughout the country and the enthust-
asrn there displayed
From all indications the Legislature
will be Democratic by large majority.

aloof from the rest of the horses as possi-
BILE, the disease has been communicated
to some Of them.
Dr. Runge. Veterinary Surgeon of the
City Board, learned of the existing state
of affairs and he disinfected the stables
and Quarantined the infected animals.
