AT THE TIME OF PARTUR1TIoN.

Our domestic animals Just before and
after giving birth to offspring ought to
be looked to every three or four hours
by day, and still oftener at night, for
parturitiOn is more certain to take
place in the latter time. Females at
this period are more or less feverish
and uneasy, and require drink fire.
quently; if the weather be cold, do not
fail to nave the water milk-warm every
time it is offered them, to ewes and
sOwS as well as to mares and COWS;
sometimes this is more important for
the smaller than the larger animals,
yet few breeders are aware of the fact.
There is not much risk of overlooking
with well-cured hay, but with rich
grass, and particularly green clover
and alfalfa, there is danger, unless
moderately fed of engendering hOven,
and in any event it is better to mix
hay or straw with these feE DIS. The
only grain safe to give at this time is
wheat bran or shorts. If oil meal has
been given, omit this for a few days,
especially cottonseed meal, for it is
positively to be dreaded unless at the
South, where animals are extensively
accustomed to it from birth up, follow
ing from generation to generation, the
same as with corn and Indian meal, it
seems to be incorporated into their
systems, and they can feed upon these
two at most times with impunity.
Northern animals thus fed are subject
to collie, indigestion, cOmpactness in
the stomach, with great pain followed
by a long enervating sickness or death.

THE BACCARAT SCANDAL,
Still Discussed by the Queen, the Clubs and
the House of Commons

Still Discussed by the Queen, the Clubs and
the House of Commons.
Queen Victoria has called upon the Earl of
Coventry, master of the buckhounds, for full
statement regarding the gaming scandal in
which the names Of the Prince'of Wales and Sir
Gordon Cumming are involved. Her majesty
is greatly annoyed at the stories that are cur
rent.
The committee Of the Guards Club has con-
vened an extraordinary meeting Of the men-
bers to consider the steps to be taken in regard
to the card scandal, as the statements implicate
a member Of the club.
The affair was again brought up in the house
Of commons yesterday when the Right Hon.
Edward Stanhope, secretary Of state for war,
was compelled to reply to a question as to what
action the government proposed to take with
reference to the military officers who were con-
cerned in the recent baccarat scandal. He said
that pending the result of the legal proceed
ings taken by Sir William Gordon Cumming
against the persons who had accused him Of
unfair play the war department did not propose
to retire any Of the officers concerned in the
affair. Mr.. Stanhope further said that the
colonelS o; the various regiments were making
successful endeavors to prevent gambling
among the officers of their command.

LURED BY A FLAG OF TRUCE.
American Ofhcials Murder Five Of Garcia
hand.

AAneEACAu omcl8lS murOer five Oh G0rc10I1
band.
A special to the Philadelphia Inquirer from
New Orleans says: There is a very bitter feel
ing in Havana on account of the alleged perfidy
of the United States government officials in in
triguing for the murder Of three bandits and
their two relatives on Spanish merchant
steamer fortnight ago. Under flag of truce
the bandits, members Of the noted Manuel Gar
cha band. were induced to accompany the gen.
eral agent to Havana under positive guarantee
OF safe conduct. Garcia himself declined, say
ing he would only come if President Harrison
signed an agreement, but offered no resistance
to their leaving him. The three bandits, ac-
companied by their innocent relatives, went to
Havana and remained there several days unmo-
Tested. No American steamer being handy the
officials urged the bandits and relatives to take
passage aboard Spanish steamer.
On entering their state rooms the bandits
were instantly locked in. Then began strug-
gle for liberty, resulting in three being shot
down in the cabin. Two who fought their way
into boat alongside were killed by shots by
two men-of-war lying near.
Conspiracy is charged, because when the
spanish merchant steamer tapped its bell the
men-of-war instantly began firing. This could
not have happened unless prearranged. 1t is
feared Garcia will wreak terrible revenge for
this breach of faith.

The Secret Of the Famous Abranyi- Bism.rc:
Interview.

The Secret of the Famous Abranyi-B Bismarck
Interview.
The Pestter Lloyd Of Buda Pesth publishes
letter and vouches for the correctness of its
details relating to the famous Abranyi inter-
view.
Herr Abranyi in August last published IN &C.
count of an interview he was supposed to have
had with Prince Bismarck. The ex-chancellor,
Immediately after the publication referred to-
repudiated all the assertions made. Abranyi
then sought another interview with Prince Bis
marck, but was refused admittance to the ex-
chancellor's presencs. Abranyi was highly in
censed at this proceeding and at the taunts and
jeers he received on all sides from the press
and from his friends and acquaintance Fin
ally he was goaded into publishing letter
August Is. in which he reproduced his former
rectAess.
This brought out another denial from Prince
Bismarck and renewed onslaught upon the
unfortunate Hungarian deputy. On August
%. as a result Of his alleged interview with
Prince Bismarck, Abranyi resigned his seat
lucky interviewer published circumstantial
account Of his alleged interview and was an
nOunced to be seeking a reelection to the diet
The last heard Of Abranyi was on September
26, when The Hamburger Ndchrichten said that
Abranyi. in consequence of the jibing he had
with Prince Bismarck, was suffering SO severely
from nervous mania that his friends had de-
cided that it would be necessary to place him
in a lunatic asylum.
1t is now said that he interviewed Bismarck's
double. a man who looked so much like the ex-
chancellor that the interviewer was completely
deceived. The meeting was designed and
carried out as o practical joke.

What People VIII Sign.

curious incident happened in West vir-
ginia few days ago, which shows to what ex-
tent people will attach their signatures to doc
uments the intent of which they know nothing
about, relying solely upon statements of per-
sons presenting them.
Mr.. James Carroll, prominent but illiterate
farmer Of Preston county, astonished the Judge
OF the county court by presenting a petition
that he be hanged and day for the execution
be set by the court. The paper was signed by
$50 Of his friends and scquaintances. Upon in
vestigation it turned out that MIR. Carroll was a
road surveyor and desired to resign and he
asked DR.. James A. Cox, a friend. to draw up a
paper to that effect. Cox, being somewhat OF
a wag and knowing that Carroll could not
read, drew up the petition asking thar he be
hanged and Carroll carried it around explain
ing what he wanted and asking his friends to
sign it. No less than 15O people had signed the
paper without glancing at it and without the
least suspicion of its purport before the game
was detected, but 100 more signatures were af-
fixed merely to see how far it would go. Those
who signed it in good faith were no little
shocked when they found their names to such
a document laid publicly before o court and
felt as much aggrieved as Mr.. Carroll.

South Dakota's Choice for the United st.tes
Senate.


The South Dakota legislature yesterday
elected Rev. Mr.. James Henderson Kyle, an
alliance man, formerly republican, as United
States Senator. The election Of Kyle is said to
be due to the factional fights Of the republicans.
The bitterest and most effective opposition
to Senator Moody came from the Black Hills.
Four ballots we're taken. The vote resulted:
Kyle, IS; Sterling, IS: Tripp, 8; Campbell, 1.
The speaker announced that Jas. H. Kyle, hav-
ing received . majority of all votes cast. was
elected United States Senator for the term

A SLEEPING WONDER.
Medical Men Puzzled Over an Indiana Boys
Slumbers.

D
SAUNDERS.
Another sleeping wonder has been discovered
which promises to be as interesting as the case
of the Amboy, ILL.,, girl. ASeymour, Ind. dis
patch says: Six weeks ago Jesse Streitt, boy
thirteen years of age went TO sleep, and in spite
of all attempts to awaken him continued to
slumber for thirty consecutive days and nights.
He recovered from his indisposition at that
time and appeared to be as well as usual, and
nothing unusual occurred with him until last
"Wednesday at O'Clock pm. Jesse is prime
favorite with his neighbors, Mr., and Mrs. Chas.
Dahlenburg, and on that morning Mrs. Dahlen-
burg invited Jesse to come over and eat dinner
with her, she was going to have roast
chicken.
In high glee the little boy ran In and told his
mother that he was going to Mrs. Dahlenburgs
to eat dinner the sext day and asked that new
shirt be made for him to wear. This was made
according to his wishes, and, after he had put it
away with his other clothes ready for the next
day. he told his parents that he could not go to
his neighbours dinner the next day, for he was
sleepy, and was going to sleep and would sleep
q long time. His father talked to him and did
everything in his power to keep him awake,
but it was Of no avail. He dropped asleep and
has since slumbered on, with no signs of
awakening.
Last night Justice A. r. Simons called at the
residence to see Jesse and left there near II
o'clock. He told the parents he could awaken
him and asked permission to try, which was
readily granted. First he put a spoonful of
cold water in his mouth, which the boy finally
swallowed with an effort Next a cloth wet
with cold water was placed under thexarms and
in front Of the hips to slightly shock the nerves.
Then the sleepers body was raised to . sitting
posture. His eyelids opened in front Of the
light None of these experiments had the
slightest effect toward arousing him and Mr..
Simons gave the matter mp total failure.
This is the third day Of his present sleep. His
heart moves regularly. but not strongly, and
is turned over at intervals to rest him. She
also pours a half teaspoonful Of sweet milk in
his mouth occasionally, but II he ever swallows
any of IL abe does not know il, - IL runs out Of
his mouth when he ID turned over.

PHOTOGRAPHIC IN COLORs.
Prof. Lippmann Replies to Criticisms on His
system,


Aspecial cable dispatch to The EVENING STAR
dated Paris says: Prof. Lippman. the discov-
erer of the process of photographing colors,
already cabled, on being again interviewed, re-
piled to certain criticisms to which he had been
subjected. He says that the colors are fixed
and are thus only seen by reflection in looking
at the plate. and not through it. His method
has nothing in common with the so-caled chro-
mo-lithographic photograph. Mr.. Lippmann
is extremely cautious about making assertions,
hut thinks that he will be able to reproduce the
composite lines. such as are found in the human
complexion or in a landscape. He added: ''As
have never tried, cannot speak positively,
but scientists have labored more to reproduce
the bright than the subdued colors. These
shall be able to catch and fix"
The reporter testi1ies that he never saw bet
ter effects than those obtained by the professor,
who made the discovery while preparing u lee
ture on '.Newton's Theory of Light"
