Peach Trees in tie Apple Orchard.


A correspondent writes thus in the
New York World: while setting out an
apple orchard l would also plant an equal
number of peach trees, alternating an
apple with a peach. When the apple
trees have reached maturity ample room
is exceedingly important. When at their
best they should have at least thirty-fve
feet space each way, and forty would
be eve better. Many years, however,
will elapse before they will require all
the ground devoted to them, and during
these early years, what in the newly
planted orchard seems like a waste Of
ground may be utilized by planting
peach between the apple trees. These
will have passed their period of useful
ness without any damage to the grow
ing orchard, and if a few are remaining
when the space they occupy is wanted
they a be cut down. l know that
some argue against this plan, but I have
seen a good many fine crops of peaches
raised in this way without discovering
that any injury whatever was done to
the apple trees"

HUMAN FLESH-EATERS.
A HORRIBLE STORY OF CANNIBAL-
ISM IN BRAZIL.
Man Eaters That Were in Turn Eaten by
Their Friends-The Last Man in the
Game Tells How Human Meat Tastes.

New YORK, July GA little three
column newspaper printed in the inter-
ior of Brazil, which reached here today,
contained horrible story OF cannibal-
ism. A man named Clement Vier, is
under arrest at Salinas, state Of Minass
Brazil, charged with eating human
flesh. In talk with the editor, he eaid
for some time he and number of others
had lived upon human flesh, and when
asked what motive impelled them to
such barbarous acts, said it was because
they liked it.
/ Asked how they secured the first vic
tim, he said hewent one. day to the house
OF a friend named Leandro, who invited
him to eats piece Of his (Leandro's) dead
child. He was hungry and did 80. The
following day he found a woman asleep
by the roadside, killed her and took the
body home. Soon after he killed a
friend named Simplisir, and with the
assistance OF Francisco and Seya-a ate
him. When his flesh was all consumed,
Simplisr's two sons were killed for
further supply of food. Later on Basilio
and the prisoner killed and devoured
Francisco, and finally Viera, having dis
coved that Basilio had stolen shirt
from him, killed him. He ate very
little of him, however, for he was ar
rested within two days of the murder.
Viera was captured in the act OF max
ing meal of portion Of Basilio's re-
mains. Soldiers found part Of Basilio's
body packed away in a barrel, prepared
with pepper and salt.
"Has human flesh an agreeable
taste ?" Viera was asked.
"No," he replied; ''it is too sweet
The part found most toothsome was
brains. We ate the flesh roasted or
boiled with salt and great deal Of
pepper" s.
Viera expressed no remorse for what
he had done.

many arose early this morning. After
taking canter in Rotten Row, he re-
turned to Buckingham palace where, in
company withthe empress, he received
deputations from various German social
and benevolent societies of London, and
the diplomatic corps.
This afternoon the emperor again Wis.
tied Rotten Row, attended only by an
aid-de-camp, and dressed in the uniform
OF a Prussian general. He was mounted
on one Of his own horses brought over
from Germany. ssH
Later the prince and prin,
cess OF Wales gave garden party
at Marlborough house, in honor of the
emperor and empress, which was a
great success. Here their majesties met
number OF the British and German
aristocracy. The music was furnished
by the band of the British guards, and
that of the Prussian royal dragons, the
latter being sent to England on purpose
to play at this party. Thousands of
people crowded the neighborhood OF
Marlborough house, anxious to catch a
glimpse of the German majesties.
The emperor assisted the queen to
alight from her carriage on her arrival,
and accompanied her to seat. After
refreshments the emperor and empress
were shown the grounds.
After dinner in Buckingham palace,
the queen returned to Windsor, and the
imperial visitors attended concert in

uniform of British admiral. The en-
press wore dress Of cardinal silk, with
a dazzling tiara of diamonds. At the

y u0g0 BlO0getG Makes sweeping De-
cision Against Miss Couzins.
CHICAGO, July 9.--Judge Blodgett de-
cided the Phoebe Couzins case this
morning, by rendering sweeping de-
cision against the ex-secretary of the
board of lady managers of the worlds
fair. The court held, in short, that
Miss Couzins was out of Office, and
out for good. She cannot get
back. The case was decided on excep-
tions made by Mrs. Couzins to the
answer fled to her bill for an injuoction
to restrain the defendants from ousting
her from Office. The court held that the
board of lady managers was created by
the national commission and re-
eeived its powers from that
body. These powers extended to
the executive committee of the board of
lady managers, and it had full powers
to act, inasmuch as congress had not
provided for continuous session of the
board of lady managers, which had to
delegate it's power to committee. This
committee, the court held, was in fact
the board itself. Tie court thereupon
denied the injunction as prayed for.

Comments OF the Irish Press on the

DUBLIN, July 9.-The Parnellite press
is exceedingly downcast over the result
of the Carlow election. The Freeman's
Journal says there is now no more
chance of getting home rule for Ireland
than of getting the moon. 1.-The elect
ors," the Journal adds, shave aban-
doned neutrality-suspicious. for the British
party yoke"
The Conservative Dublin Express
says: ''The English will learn from
Carlow that the Irish tenant, when not
actuated by Insane land hunger, is a
puppet in the hands of the Roman
Catholic priests, and as unfit to be an
elector as if he were an infant or luna
tic"
The National Press, the McCarthyite
organ, is naturally jubilant, and says;
"The Carlow men have dealt death
blow to the faction of Parnell, from
which there is no longer any peril"

Looks Like Filibustering.

WASHINGTON, July IA letter has
been received at the government offices
here from man at Norfolk, Va, who
states that one Captain Arnett has been
agent at Norfolk in shipping men for a
treasure hunt in Mexican waters.
The writer is informed that
he has shipped over 20r men
and is secretly taking a large quantity
of arms and ammunition at some port
on Long Island sound. 1t looks much
as though some filibustering expedition
is on foot, and it may be meant to aid a
revolution in Hayti or Mexico.
