The Training of Dogs.

DR.. wesley Mills says, IN the POpU-
lar Science Monthly, that the puppy
should not be allowed to get into
habits which will later need correc-
ton. Let him from the first be en-
couraged in cleanliness, self respect.
love of esteem. respect for the rights
Of other puppies, his fellows, etc.
Very early begin to instlll into him
lessons of restraint. but only for the
briefest periods. for the creature is as
yet weak in brain and will power,
though strong in instincts and i'm
pulses. The master or trainer must
not be associated in his mind with I'M
pIeasantness, but with the reverse.
Donot, therefore, punish him, but let
him learn almost unconsciously that
certain actions and certain pleasures
are connected. He should soon
learn his name, should always come
when called, but not be summoned
too often, especially if playing. 1t is
we'll to carry q bit of biscuit, cheese,
etc., to reward him for coming at
first. Later a pat of appreciation will
suffice. The trainer should never un-
dertake what he is not reasonably
sure of accomplishing; and the first
aim should always be to secure the
dogs attention and interest. and to
make the accomplishment pleasant.
But he must know what is wanted,
and if he cannot comprehend this,
the lesson is unsuitable at this period.
He must, however, obey if he under
stands; gentle compulsion, when once
the purpose is understood, NAV be ex-
ercised-e e., if he will not come when
he is called. he must not be whipped,
as that will make the whole set of as
sociations unpleasant, but he must be
gently dragged by the back Of the
neck or bodily carried to where the
trainer stood when the command was
given; he must then be very gently
reprimanded, then forgiven and made
to feel that he is forgiven, and the
lesson repeated, always %rewarding
obedience in some way.

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The an
swer of this government to the do
mands OF Italy for statement OF the
manner in which we propose to treat
the killing OF the Italian murderers at
New Orleans is expected to appear just
before the president leaves for the
south and west on Tuesday. The Ital-
ian government has evinced an irrita-
pie spirit OF haste but the representa-
tives OF our government have taken
time to secure sufficient facts to enable
them to proceed intelligently and upon
n basis OF justice. No fear has been
entertained ihht Italy would precipi-
tate war, and yet the feeling of Sc
curity upon the part OF our repre- senta-
tives has not dictated undue procasti-
nation. 1t is safe to predict that the
answer of Secretary Blaine, which is
being prepared under the personal
direction OF the president, will evil
dencc no disposition to improperly in
cuipate Americans or the state gov
ernmept, while at the same time it will
firmly adhere TO the lines of fairness
whlch Is due every nationality. 1t is
anticipated tn ut some evidence will be
given OF President Harrison's Ameri-
canism in the letter, which is about
ready for PRONUNCIATION in respect to
the demands Of Italy. II any evidence
of the unity OF action and coincident
impulse existing between the president
and his secretary OF state was needed.
it has been demonstrated in the man
ner in which they have worked to-
gether in the New Orleans incident. and
they will give more evidence yet of
their determination to protect Ameri-
can interests the same in one section
OF our country as another.

4 sugar Combine TO Control the
Market,

New YORK. April IL. -Reports have
been current for some days on the
sugar market that combination has
been formed between the sugar trust,
all the eastern refiners and the whole
sale grocers association to acquire
complete control OF the sugar trade.
1t is known that negotiations have
been pending between independent re-
finers, the sugar trust and the whole
sale dealers to handle all sugar refined
in this country and boycott the refined
sugars OF foreign countries. So far
the deal has resulted only in an asso-
citation OF the retiners. 1t was stated
today that Claus Spreckles, Z c.
Knight, Harrison 4 Frazer, and all
the independent sugar refiners have
entered into an agreement with the
trust to work in harmony with its man
ayers and produce only their pro rata
share of the entire production, which
will be limited to sales made in advance
by wholesale grocers.
One OF the largest sugar dealers in
the city said in reference to the agree
ment: "Refiners are now making u
profit OF only l-15 of cent per pound
on sugar handled by them. They are
restricted to this profit because at | of
cent per pound between the cost OF
refined and the selling price foreign
beet sugar would come to the market
in such quantities as to prevent the
placing of the product of American re-
liners
Today kilograms were received ask
ing for quotations in German beet
sugar, and that article favored as it is
by high bounty to the producer from
the German government is looming
up promptly as a menace to the REIN
ing business here. There will be no
attempt TO boycott it however, but in
dividual refiners and the trust, work.

they deem necessary to prevent it or

April Returns on Crop..

turns to the department Of agriculture
make the condition OF winter wheat
90. Q and OF rye 95.4. The season for
seeding was favorable over tho whole
winter wheat area the soil generally
easily worked, the seed bed prepared
with unusual care and sowing followed
! by gentle rains sufficient to properly
pack the earth and insure prompt and
| perfect termination. Suitable weather
ana soil conditions enabled the farm
ers In the Ohio valley states TO put in
full breadth under entirely favorable
circumstances and proper combina-
tons OF sunshine and moisture, which
| continued until cold weather sent the
plant into winter quarters with sturdy
| growth and good color. In portions
OF Kansas and Nebraska the prolonged
drouth last summer extended into the
period of seeding, interfering some
what and rendering termination slow,
but seasonable weather during the late
fall and early winter was sufficient to
offset the disadvantage of the late
start. The entire season was favor
ablo in California. while in Oregon the
dry seed bed received moisture in time
TO secure good though late growth.
The weather was generally mild over
the whole area and while the snow
fall was comparatively light. it
came when most needed, pro-
tecting the plant during the cold
est weather. The Hessian fly.
which was feared in December
in the central west. is yet in allegiance.
but the presence OF the pest is noted
IN many localities and serious injury
may follow should the early season
prove favorable to its development.
The general average for condition is
the highest reported for April since
1882 and individual state averages are
remarkable for their uniformity. 1t is
10 points higher than last year and 8
above the returns of 1889. The high
April condition does not insure large
yield, but it indicates strength and
vitality which would enable the plant
TO Withstand more than the ordinary
vicissitudes of the season. The aver
age OF condition in the principal states
are; New York, so; Pennsylvania, 81;
Tennessee, 9S; Kentucky, 81; Ohio, 90;
Michigan, SO; Indiana, SO; Illinois, 81;
Missouri So; Kansas. SO; California,
80, and Oregon, 81. Returns make
the percentages OF losses among farm
animals during the past year OF horses
l.7 cattle. 3; sheep, 4; swine, 8.4 The
percentage OF loss of cattle is slightly
higher than reported in 1888 and 1889,
the scarcity of feed swelling the figures
in proportion in Kansas and Nebraska.
The losses of sheep are smaller than
usual on account Of better care, while
less disease than usual is reported
among swine, though there is heavy
loss in the region OF last years crop
failures.

A Scramble for Land.

WASHINGTON. April 15.-Commis-
sioner Carter of the general land office
has received information that great
excitement exists among the people
in the vicinity OF the lands in north
ern Wisconsin along the line Of the
Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis d
Omaha road which will be opened for
homestead settlement next Saturday.
At Ashland, it is said, crowd of
armed men have formed circle around
the local land office and threaten to
shoot any one who attempts to break
the line or in any way tries to forestall
them in fling the necessary applica-
ton papers. Commissioner Carter in
speaking Of the matter said these hos
tile demonstrations would work only
hardship to the persons engaged in
them, for no one would be permitted
to acquire rights under the land laws
by force OF arms or intimidation. The
lands are said to be valuable for their
pine timber, many quarter sections
being worth from S.. 900 to $40. 900.

The Florida Senatorship.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, April 1.-THE
sensation OF the day is the publication
OF a letter from President Rogers of
the state alliance, in which he says he
cannot support Dunn for United States
senator because he is national
banker, nor Call either. 'because the
latter is not in sympathy with the de-
mands OF the National Alliance" The
letter appeals to the alliance legisla-
tors (who number fifty-6ve a clear
Majority TO stand united upon u
straight alliance candidate. Over half
the alliance legislators are supporters
OF Call, however. Call does not favor
the sub-treasury bill. but is in sympa-
thy with the alliance on other demands.
Another sensation was sprung this
afternoon by the distribution to the
members OF circular issued by Sena-
tor Call, denouncing as absolute and
malicious falsehoods" the statements
made by Editor Cummings, of the farm
ers alliance, that he (Call) was hos
tile to free silver coinage and to all
the principles of the farmers alliance.
On the sub-treasury scheme he says:

ion that the sub-treasury system

Italy and The AIlInnca

RoMr, April 4.-Premier di Rudini
IN an interview in regard to the drel-
ounu' held that the renewal of the
triple alliance WAS of secondary i'm
po"tancc us compared with Il constant
agreement with England. On MANY
occasions, said the premier the policy
OF the ureibund harmonized perfectly
with British IDEAS, yet Lord Salisbury
had never adhered TO the dreibund
treaty. Italy's renewal of her contract
win the alliance depended on the Cen-
erll situation IN Europe, which was
now changing every day. 1t was diff

would remain passive while war was
being waged by Russia and France
against Germany and Austria. Even

Britain. Should Russia refrain from

powers thus securing the absolute

ton. Ii Austria attacked Russia. or

Rudni declared he was convinced that
France despite her excessive arma-
ments, would never a.one wage II war
OF aggression while tue dreipund con-
unued to act as the safeguard of
Europe. In view OF the prevailing
temper in France it is perfectly idle to
discuss the question of the dissolution

Going To South Dakotn,

WASHINGTON. April 14.-It is an
nounced here this evening that Mrs.
James G. Blaine, jr., Is about to take
up her residence in South Dakota and
remain there long enough to secure a
divorce from her husband the young
est son of Secretary Blaine. Mrs.
Blaine has contemplated this step for
some time, but it has been carefully
kept secret. Young Blaine's sudden
and secret departure for Spain couple
OF weeks ago under the wing of John
W. Foster was it is believed, a piece
OF diplomacy, not so much in the in
terest OF reciprocity with Spain as to
avoid the service OF divorce papers.

CHICAGO, April 11.-Mrs. II. M
Blackfan OF BARLEY. Red Willow
county, Neb.. was on the board of
trade yesterday soliciting subscrip-

dents of Red Willow county are actu-
ally starving to death. They have no
food for themselves or their animals
and no seed for the coming seasons
planting. Over seven hundred fami-
lies in that county are in destitute cir
cumstances, with no apparent pros
poets for relief. Those who had
enough for themselves have divided
with their less fortunate neighbors.

reported in excellent condition. In the
west portion OF the winter wheat re-
gion the weather is generally favora-
BILE for farm work. Wheat and grass
are growing rapidly. The fruit pros
pect is excellent. Cold weather re-
tarded farm work in the eastern por-
ton OF the winter wheat region. Fruit
escaped the recent frost with little
damage. Reports from the Pacific
coast indicate that crops were greatly
improved by recent rains. Farm work
is backward in Oregon; early spring
grain is up and fall grain very fine.
The prospects for all crops never bet
ter. California reports the largest
acreage of wheat in the past eight
years, with prospects of a large yield.
Timely rains in southern California
give encouragement to grain growers.
Sugar beets look we'll and fruit pros
poets are good.

An Interesting Question.

WASHINGTON, April l3.--An inter-
esting question has come to the atten-
ton Of the comptroller of the currency
through the r ecent failure OF the Key
stone National bank of Philadelphia.
Several merchants OF that city who
were depositprs in the bank had left
notes for collection which fell due
ABOUT the tim OF the suspension of the
pank. Some OF these notes were paid
on the day OF the failure, and others a
day or two after. The question which
agltates the Fhiladelphians is whether
notes SO paid, which were not dis
counted, but simply left for collection,
are to be turned over to them or con-
verified into the general fund of the
bank.
Comptroller Lacey declines to an
swer the question in advance of the
appointment Of receiver, but says in
general way that notes left for col
lection with failed bank and COL
lected after the failure, are still the
property of the payee if paid after the
suspension, and that in such cases the
receiver, when appointed, will be di-
rected to pay the proceeds to the owner
OF the note at the time it was left for
collection

Judge Crounse Appointed.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE presi.
dent has at last filled the vacancy in
the treasury caused by the resignation
OF General Bachelor to accept the
mission to Portugal, and. as was ex-
cepted, Judge Lorenzo Crounse of Ne
braska has received the appointment.
Judge Crounse's fitness and oualifica-
tons for the position were first brought
to the attention OF the president by the
senator's some five or six weeks ago.
and after he had made careful inves-
tigation into Judge Crounse's oualiiica-
tons the president decided to appoint
him and gave Senator Henderson hint
Of this character last week. 1t is ex-
pected that Judge Crounse will take
the oath OF office and enter upon his
new duties Immediately.
Nebraska scored another point yes
terday when the president appointed
Ex-Governor Robert w. Furnas to be
commissioner-at-large to the worlds
fur and Columbian exposition. Ex-
Governor Furnas was talked Of for a
cabinet position and the geographical
question was the only thing that pre-
vented his appointment at the time the
cabinet was formed. The appoint
ment OF Governor Furnas TO this place
is proof that the agricultural interests
of the west will be well looked after
in the exposition Of 1898.

The Feeling In Rome

says that everybody is on the qui vive

Italian people have been held up to

Music for the World,, Fair

CHICAGO, April 15.--German singers
from all parts of the globe will be con-
solidated into one grand organization
for the purpose OF making fitting dis
play OF the vocal powers of the leu
tons on the occasion of the world $
fair. Delegates from the various sing
ing societies throughout the city came
to this decision at meeting held at
Ycung's hall on Randall street yester-
day. The Germans interested in the
project have been for some time in
communication with leading German
singers in all of the European capitals
and found an universal feeling in favor
of the idea.
