The Chilean outrare.

A young officer of the U. S. s
 Baltimore, writing to his father al Chicago, gives the following ac
 count of the trouble at Valparaiso The men had had no liberty since the middle of August until the day of the massacre, and were only
 granted it then after the captain
 had requested the police to protect
 the men in case of any trouble on
 shore.
 The men went ashore and strolled
 about, quiet and orderly. About (
 o'clock Boatswain's Mate Riggin one of the best men of the crew had words with a Chilean sailor Another of the Baltimore's men came up and said something, when the Chilean spat in his face and was promptly knocked down. This started the row, and soon the two
 men were surrounded by crowd oi Chilean sailors, roughs and boatmen
 outnumbering them forty to one Riggin was stabbed in the neck and sunk to the ground. The other man, fearing a like fate, started to
 run, but was pursued and stabbed in the back seven times.
 Another man came along and
 picked Riggin up to carry him away, when a squad of police fired, A bullet passed through the shirt of the man holding Riggin and pierc- ing the latter's neck lodged under the shoulder blade. The other man, seeing the brutes loading again, dropped Riggin and ran. Riggin was next seen in a cart dying, while a crowd of Chileans applied epithets. He died in a short time. The Bal timore's officers found people who could identify the policeman who did the shooting.
 About 7p. m. another man was brought of, stabbed twice in the back, one wound penetrating the lung. All night the bowling mob were after the Baltimore's sai- lors, caught them singly and bru- tally beat and stabbed them. There were number in the hospital badly wounded when the letter was writ ten, and the number who escaped with cuts and bruises was large. In fact, as the young officers said, the sick list the day after the affair was bad enough for a regular battle.
 He expresses the utmost indigna- tion, saying that the affair was brutal and cowardly. He is sure our boys were set on without warning, and says: Don't lose sight of the fact that Riggin was shot by police man while dying from stab wound" Several other men while running to save their lives were cut at by officers with swords. Men were held up and robbed in broad daylight in the streets of Valparaiso, and one of the Baltimore's officers, walking down to the landing, was spit at. Besides all this there were dozen other things, such as splitting at the flags of the Baltimore's boat while it was at the landing, kicking men in the boats, etc. On the night of the fight one man was so hard pressed that he jumped off the landing and stones were thrown at him while he was in the water. When a boat from an American merchant ship tried to pick him up it was driven back. The young officer adds that from all re- ports the police abetted the whole affair.

w. J. Chamberlain X Co.'S. Den
 yer financial circular for the week
 ending November 25th says: "The
 week under review has not offered any special novelties in this country.
 The clearing house returns from fifty cities show a decrease of nine per cent from the same week of last
 year. On the other hand the Octo-
 Der coal statistics of Mr. Jones show 600,000 tons more coal used in Octo-
 Der than in October of last year, which is an increase of 15 per cent, and promises we'll for the winter profits. The exports of grain has fallen of slightly but continue larger than last year. The Euro pean situation is eminently unsatis- factory, and doubtless acts directy on the trade of this country. Paris is represented as being very shaky in its financial position, and the great Complain is again in trouble. Several heavy failures in Berlin have disturbed the confidence at that point, Vienna enjoyed a lively semi panic, and Brazil and the Argentine are in a desperate taDgle, while the Russian loan is being kicked around Europe like foot ball. The only comfort which Europeans have at the moment is that ail the war ru- mors are quiescent. Spain owes 3,OOO,OO0 sterling, and will probably have to increase its capital, so that altogether European finance is having a regular shaking up, and must settle down somewhere before business can improve. The railroad market has been bearish, chiefly on account of the foreign situation, and bear attacks were successful on vari- ous securities, whose earnings make them worth more money"

At one time no one but citizen oi the Netherlands, officially licensed, could own nutmeg plantation. But this policy could not long be enforced against the interests of commerce. The tree Is now cultivated in India, Jamaica, Trinidad and Brazil. The nutmeg is liable to the attacks of kind of beetle, hence a coating of lime is generally given to the nut, to protect it from the ravages of the insect. The tree bears fruit the whole year round, but the chief harvest time comes in November. Foods and Beverages.

KNOCKED WASHINGTON DOWN.
An Interesting Story by Descendant of
the Payne Family.

~
the Payne Family.
The writer was sitting on a camp
chair on the deck of lake steamer the
other night watching the. boat as it
steamed through the center of a moon
lit track. 1t was a perfect night, and
the kind on which man wants to be
left to himself unless he has mighty
good company. An elderly gentleman
of the old school southern type drew up
his chair, started his pipe going, and at
last broke the silence with remark,
and this remark drifted into a conversa-
ton that was delightful on his part. He
said he lived in Virginia and that this
was the first time he had ever made
''long trip from home" 1t came out
that his name is Payne. The writer re-
marked that was the name of one of
Washington's pallbearers. The old gem
man smiled knocked the ashes out of
his pipe and said
"Yes. l am one of the descendants
of that family. Did you ever hear that
the Payne of whom you spoke once
knocked down George Washington?"
The old man was becoming interest
ing
ut was at Ale Xandria; of course, you
! know where that is" he continued. ut
was about the time Braddock marched
to Monongahela. l have heard the
story often in the family. Washington
and Payne had n dispute. Washington
was always a naughty man, and the
Paynes were hot-headed and thought
themselves as good as anybody on earth.
Washington insulted Payne and Payne
knocked him down. Several of Wash
ington's admirers rushed into the
melee, and / have no doubt but they
would have made short work of Payne
! if he hadn't shown pluck, He told
them that if they would come at him
one at time he would settle with
them, and then he would lick Washing
ton again if he didn't have enough.
Washington walked away and advised
his friends to keep cool. The row was
over A few weeks after Payne re-
ceived letter from Washington, in
which Payne was invited to come over
and see Washington. Payne went,
Washington apologized like gentle
man that he always was, and the two
became steadfast friends. Payne wat

funeral, as you have stated This story
is well known in Virginia, or that por.
ton of it about Alexandria. You can
verify it by making inquiries there OF
any OF the old families. Chicago Trib

THE DAIRY.


The COW that drools badly and that
does not swallow hay as she should, but
puts il out of her month into the man
ger after partially chewing it, should
hevethe personal attention of a veterin-
arian. There is probably some trouble
with the teeth. Farm and Home
Choice butter should always be
wrapped in the parchment paper now
made for this purpose. 1t is air-tight,
clean, white and cheap. Butter prop
erly put up is half sold, and If it tastes
as well as it looks, good customer is
secured. When practicable, every dairy
should sell its butter marked with it's
own brand.
In the Iowa Station feeding for
milk tests it was found that the ability
and willingness TO eat whatever is given
her is characteristic of the Holstein
COW. The Holstein has well deserved
reputation for being good feeder"
The corn plant will thrive luXuriously
on coarse manure and refuse The Hol-
stein COW will make a better return for
coarse forage than any other dairy ami
mal-except perhaps the Ayrshire. -
Rural New Yorker.
What to do with a kicking COW, is a
question that again comes to us. Get
rid of her unless she is exceedingly
valuable. A kicking COW is a nuisance
of large proportions. We have found a
very simple contrivance effectual in
some such cases. Simply set two posts
alongside of a building, the cows
length distance apart. Put couple Of
rails in it. Fasten up the place at the
head. Drive the COW in and put up a
bar at the rear The average cow
thinks she is fast and will not kick

WOMEN AS MEMS RIVALS.
Walter Besant, the Novelist, Says the Me
~. Are Much Better Workers.

Walter Besant. the Novelist, Says the Men
b. Are Much Better Workers.
In discussing the revelations made by
the English census, which shows that in
that country there are fully one million
more women than men, Walter Besant
says there is no limit to the trades
which can be followed by the women.
He does not hesitate to say, however,
that as a rule woman's work is not so
good as mans. He speaks in way
which is certain to provoke discussion
when he declares that although there
are extraordinary women here and
there, without doubt who will turn out
work much better than the average
man, much better even than the man
far above the average, the mass of wo-
men are not such good workers as the
average man. Some things, indeed, they
do not seem able to do at all Their
views of art are petty, conventional and
6nicl<y. They lower every art they
touch--always with these few brilliant
exceptions And they are the worst enc
mics to labor of all kinds, because they
are cheap; they take anything that is
offered them; they are obliged to take
anything. In literature, for instance,
certain magazines are entirely written
by women, and the pay they receive
would be simply ludicrous if it were not
pitiful. One l'irl-a clever girl, who
can write well-was employed for some
time by man who brings out cheap
novelties She got fifty shillings for
writing n story of thirty thousand
words; that is to say, a penny for every
fifty words. And she was not allowed
to put her name to the thing, because,
as her sweater told her, 'if you put
your name the people will ask for you
and your price win go up" And there
is "eligious society in this country
which gives ladies twenty or thirty
shillings for three or four months work
and makes from ten to twenty times
profit. The thing has been exposed and
the society still goes on doing it. They
pray solemnly at every meeting of the
committee, and then as solemnly, anG
filed with holy professions, sweat, slsir
! and scarify those wretched ladies. The
appearance of women in the labor mar
keith every branch of it-without the
formation of great women's trade
union to keep up the pay, has been, M
says, and is daily productive of the
! greatest disasters. Chicago Tribune

COWS FOR PROFIT,
The Folly of Keeping Scrub Cattle in the
Dairy Herd,

The Folly of Keeping Scrub Cattle in the
Dairy Herd.
We must have good cows. There is
no use in dairying with poor cows. Too
many are trying to get along with lot
of scrub cows-cows that when times
are good will barely pay profit over
cost of feed, and when feed is high and
dairy goods low, bring their owners
into debt every day in the year. Why
is it that dairymen are so unconcerned
about the quality of their cows? We
see men who, in any other branch of
farming, have the very best animals
and implements, while they keep
mean lot of cows, and their facilities in
the dairy-room for making butter are of
the poorest. Is it because dairying has
been side issue, or because the dairy
man has inherited certain notions about
his business that are out of date but he
has not been able to get rid of? In
either case there is plenty of room for
reform, and now is a good time to be-
gin.
Beef cattle are now selling for more
money than for u long time past, and
the demand for beef cattle has made
COW beef more salable than formerly,
and now is the time to get rid of the
cows that do not pay; sell them and
replace them with others that will do
good dairy work. 1t were better, far
better, to give two or three poor COWS
for one good one, and thus reduce the
herd one-half or two-thirds, than TO go
on feeding a lot of cows that pay little
or no proft.-Farm and Fireside.

A SECRET TALISMAN.
An Old Story Related Among tho Ger
mans.

An Old Story Related Among tho Ger
The Germans have story which that
home-loving people like to repeat. A
father, when his daughter became a
BRIDE, gave her golden casket with
the injunction not to pass it into other
hands, for it held a charm which in her
keeping would be of inestimable value
to her as the mistress of house. Not
only was she to have the entire care of
it, but she was to take it every morning
to the cellar the kitchen, the dining
room, the library, the parlor, the bed
rooms, and to remain with it in each
place for five minutes, looking carefully
about. After lapse of three years the
father was to send the key, that the
secret talisman might be revealed. The
directions were followed. The key was
sent The casket was opened 1t wa
found to contain an old parchment, on
which were written these words: 1.-THE
eyes of the mistress are worth Que
hundred pair of servants hands" The
wise father knew that a practice of il
spection followed faithfully for three
years would become habit and be self
perpetuating-that the golden caskst
and the hidden charm would have ~
complished their mission Christian =;
