A Tremendous Sensation in Paris.

PARIS, Oct. 1.-The news of Bou-
hangers death has caused a tremendous
sensation in Paris. The newspapers con-
tanning details are unable to meet the
demand for copies. Members of the
Patriotic league are already talking of
demanding a public funeral in Paris for
the late general. 1t is likely that they
will try to make an issue with the gov

EXIT BOULANGER.

The EEratic and Dramatic French Gem
erai and Ex-War Minister Ends His
Career by Puncturing His Brain with a
Bullet on the Grave of His Lately-De-
ceased Mistress, Nine De Bonnemain in
the Cemetery at Brussels-A Brief Sketch
of His Career.
BRUSSELS, Oct. lien. Boulanger
committed suicide at the tomb of Nine.
Bonnemain, his late mistress. Eho re-
Gently died in this city.
The suicide of the general took place
at about noon. Boulanger stood alone
by the grave of his mistress for some
time, appearing to be deeply affected
by sorrowful recollections. An at
tendant, who had respectfully re-
manned at some distance, suddenly
heard a sharp report. fastening to
the spot, he found Boulanger lying dead
upon the ground with revolver in
his right hand. A hasty examila-
ton of the body showed that he had
placed the weapon to his right ear and
fired. The deed has caused intense eX-
citement among the followers of the
dead general both here and in Paris.
The police, who are now in possession
of the suicides lodgings, have not yet
announced whether he left any state
ment. 1t is known that Boulanger's
position, both financial and political,
had been getting blacker and blacker
OF late. The future held out no hope
to him, and his remaining friends be-
came as cold as they had once been
warm when it was seen that the once
famous soldier was no longer necessary
to the welfare of France. OF these
things he was conscious, and they
preyed upon his mind. To this is to be
added the morbid love or infatuation
which he felt for the late Nine. De
Bonnemain, his mistress.

1t is seldom that double-yellxed egg
will hatch, though instances have been
xnown in which such eggs have pro-
iuced chicks. When double-yellSed eggs
ire found, it is to be regretted, as they
invariably indicate that the hens are
out of condition-too fat. A hen in
good laying condition will never pro-
luce an egg other than of the normal
size peculiar to her breed, and if fat,
she is entirely untitled for laying. If a
lat hen is killed she will be found full

aoticed to be of all sizes, and the poul-

ABOUT TILE-pRAINING.
One Way of AToiding Lawsuits and Hard
FeGiing Among Nsighbors.

Feci,ng Among Ncighbors.
Suppose A and B own adjoining
farms. AS land being higher than B's,
the surplus water OF AS land will run
onto BIS land. What effe 1t will it have
on BIS land il A underdrains hiss
All the water that falls on AS land in
ayear is needed on the farm, if it could
be properly utilized; but at times there
is more water than can soak into the
ground, and the surplus must run off
onto other land. 1t is estimated that
one foot of underdrained land will hold
one inch of water; so, if land is under
drained two feet deep, it will hold two
inches of rain, and we very seldom get
more than that in twenty-four hours.
Now, il A drains his land it will become
porous, and will hold about all the
water that falls upon his land during
the summer season, and will be taken
mp by the growing crop. The only
time B gets as much water as he did
before is when the ground is frozen, or
in the winter, when all vegetation is
dormant and the water not needed.
Then the water seeks the tile and will
run off. After the land is properly
drained the ground will not freeze as
deep as it did before, from the fact that
the air enters at the outlet and will
pass to the upper end of the drain
and become of the same temper
ature as the surrounding earth,
which is above freezing, and con-
sequently will rise and warm the
ground to the top. For this reason, the
tile at the lower end of the drain should
be hard enough to withstand the frost,
as the cold air that enters will freeze
every thing solid for good ways, no
matter how deep under ground. Ihave
noticed that fact in coal banks that are
entered by drift" or ENTRY" the
entry will be frozen solid n considera-
BILE distance, even if fifty feet under the
surface. The air as it passes in will
get warmer and finally pass out through
the all shaft that all banks must be
supplied with, and the colder the
weather the stronger the current.
have frequently seen where B sued
A for damages for flooding him by under
draining, but as yet rot seen that
he got any damages. I think he would
stand a better chance by trying to get
damages for drying him up. In my inn
mediate neighborhood are two adjoin-
ing farms. The upper farm has swamp
on it, the water of which flows over the
lower farm. Some thirty-fve years ago
the owners got into law about it. The
result was that they had to sell the
farms to pay the costs and the swamp
was not drained. 1t has been partially
drained since hut not to do anV good.

ing to law and following in ''the foot.
steps of their illustrious predecessors, y
did as men ought TO do; they agreed
among themselves that each should dc
certain part of the work, and put in a
twelve-inch sewer pipe, which will
drain the swamp and not injure the
lower land. Less than one hundred
dollars will be required to do the work

Imitation Inlaid Work.

One OF the prettiest and easiest ways
Of decorating work-boxes, panels or any
woodwork where inlaid work would be
suitable, is by initiating as clio ely as
possible Japanese inlaid work. Have the
article to be decorated perfectly smooth,
and paint it jet black. If not good black,
the work is spoiled in the beginning.
When the paint is thoroughly dry, see
that there are no rough or uneven
places; if there n'e, they must be very
carefully smoothed away. Give the part
to be decorated light coating of thin
glue, just enough to hold the leaves in
place. Into this glue press dried ferns
and other leaves of similar texture in
any pretty forms which fancy may sug-
gest. Give the whole surface number
of coats of white varnish, until no un-
evenness remains. If nicely done, this
work is handsome and lasting, and well
adapted edforpresents.-The Housckeeper.
