Daily tobacco leaf-chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1890-1895, 1891-09-28

The commissioner says that under the
act of March 3, 1891, repeating the tim
Der culture law, cases long suspended on
suspicion of fraud or under harsh tech
nical rules, are passed to patent in a
manner which, while greatly facilitat-
ing the transaction of business, leaves
ample safeguards against possible fraud.
With the present force he says he feels
justified in saying, that the business of
the bureau will be practically brought
abreast with current work by the end
of the next fiscal wear.

Irrigation.

Upon the subject of irrigation Mr.
Carter says that he is justified in esti-
mating the area of good soil which may
be reclaimed by system of storage res
ervoirs, at more than 120, 900, 900 acres.
The commissioner discusses the sub
iect at length and says that it has be-
come question of greatest practical i'm
portance how the thousands of people
now yearly seeking homes on the public
lands, from all quarters~f the republic,
and who may be expected to do so here
after, are to be provided with the homes
for which they seek. There are millions
of acres of land in the arid region with
soil equal if not superior to that found
in Oklahoma, in sections of the country
where the climate is equally desirable,
upon which no one attempts TO settle,
for the reason that water supply for ir-
rigation cannot be secured Mt such ex-
pense as the settlers are able to pay.
He suggests two ways OF surmount-
ing this difficulty: One 20 encourage
private persons to engage in irrigation;
the other and wiser, to transfer the land
and water 10 the direct control of the
states, subject to such limitations and
restrictions rs would insure the reclama-

LIKE THE PIED PIPER.
How Rats Are Trapped by the English
men In Rurmah

How Rats Arc Trapped by the English
men In Burmah.
Rats may readily be induced to jump or
drop into any receptacle. especially if it
affords them adequate coneealment, and
they do this without one lingering suspicion
of their inability to reach the only existing
outlet when the time for retreat approaches.
says the London Field. Thus traps on this
principle may readily be designed, and are
obviously preferable to our rat-traps where
the vermin are numerous. This method
was thus explained by our correspondent,
who spoke of the traps as being most sue
eessfully used In Burmah, where the rats
are perfect pest. The jar trap was set
for three nights"
ION the first occasion / saw TWENTY-FIVE
rats turned out. On the second night only
nine rats were caught. The trap was then
put away for weeks, when it was again sue
cessfuIly used, but l am unable to say to
what extent 1t then succeeded. The COM
mon Pegu jar used was about one and
half or two feet deep, and fourteen or fifteen
inches broad, and hole was punched in the
shoulder just large enough for a rat to enter.
There was about six or seven inches of
paddy frice In husk) in the jar. which was
buried 10 within eight inches Of the top.

OWENS BROS.' CONTRACT.
Three Bondsmen Claim the Right I
Finish the Work.

Three Bondsmen Claim the Right to
Finish tho Work.
A special meeting of the Harbor Commits
sioners was called for yesterday afternoon
for the purpose of letting contract for the
completion of the work given the Owen
Bros under contract, but which was not
completed and has given the board no end
of trouble. Governor Markham and Mayor
Sanderson were expected TO be present, but
the former failed to appear.
The board was given complete surprise
by the appearance on the scsne of two
bondsmen for Owens Bros. and the repre-
sentative Of third, who claimed 1t as a
right guaranteed under law to 20 on with
the work the Owens Bros. failed to COM
plete. The bondsmen who made this re-
quest were Michael Scully. NJ. 81. Gaffney
and James McDavitt, the latter being rep
resented by Thomas Z. Green. Bondsman
Scully said he lately bought quarry on the
corner Of Louisiana and Winthrop streets
which had sufficient rock of the required
quality and that the bondsmen we're anxious
to 20 ahead with the work. There were,
however. two bondsmen absent and no
papers Of assignment of the Owens Bros
contract were at hand. so no official action
was taken. The matter will come up again
at the Thursday meeting.

How to stop Nose flooding.

Continued and obstinate nose bleed
ing has been at times very hard to
stop, and a simple and very effective
remedy will no doubt prove welcome
to those who live in the country or at
a distance from medical attendance
Several severe cases Of nose bleed
have occurred at the hospital of the
University OF Pennsylvania, and. after
trying every expedient without sue
cess, DIR. d. II. Agnew, as a last re-
sort tried ham fat. Two large cylin.
ders of bacon were forced we'll up into
the nostrils. resulting in almost i'm.
mediate relief and an entire cessation
of the hemorrhage. This easy remedy
should be remembered by those who
are subject to frequently recurring at

Couldu,t Nudge the Duke.

There is good story told OF the
duke of Northumberland, who, when
he travels on the local railway, gcner-
ally travels thir0-class. The officials,
not liking this, tried to make him give
up this habit. SO they filled his COM
partment with chimncy-sweeps carry
ing SACKS of SCOT; but when the duke
arrived at his designation he took the
sweeps to the booking Office ana bought
them each q tirst-class ticket back again
and put one in each tirst-ciass carriage,
sack and all. After this the company
gave up trying to make the duke travel
