FED TO A THRESHER.

Horrible Murder OF Boy In New York and
Speedy Vengeance Visited Upon the
brutal Murderer.
SAVANNAH, n. Y, Aug. SO.-The
news of the terrible tragedy near Cato,
Canandaigua county, has been received
here, but full particulars cannot be
learned. 1t appears that boy while
cutting bundles for threshing ma
chine, accidentally cut the feeders hand,
which so Infatuated him that he imme-
diatcly caught up the lad and threw
him into the rapidly revolving cylinder,
where he was ground to atoms before
anyone could raise hand to prevent it.
The brother of the unfortunate lad
witnessed the bloody deed and lost no
time in wreaking vengeance upon the
murderer. He felled him to the floor
with blow from a pitchfork, and
while he lay writhing from the effects
thereof, the brother repeatedly plunged
the tines of the fork through his body,
not ceasing until he was dead. All the
threshing hands stood by and witnessed
the two tragic deaths, which occurred
so quickly that they were powerless to
interfere

OVER A PRECIPlCE.
Fearful Death of Citizen of Custer Coun-
ty, Idaho.


Boise, Idaho, Aug. 29.-Alexander
Mcleod, n well-known citizen of Custer
county, met terrible death in pecu-
liar manner on Monday afternoon, the
particulars of which have just reached
here. Mcleod left Salmon City for the
mountains, following the Leesburg
trail He rode horse and led pack
mule. Something frig' tened the ami
mails and they ran away. Mcleod could
not stop the maddened brutes and
they careened along the dangerous
trail at a tremendous pace. Coming to
IN abrupt turn in the trail, McLeod's
horse stopped so suddenly that he was
pitched out Of his saddle and over the
brink Of a precipice 400 feet high. His
body was crushed as fat as board and
every bone was broken. Tom Finne-
gan and Harry Norfolk, the men who
found the disfgured corpse, built sig
nal fire, which is the mountain peoples
mode Of communication, and mon went
from Salmon City and secured the body.

STOCK ITEMS.

Better buy some mill feed and keep
the hogs growing than to allow them to
run down.
Hogs can generally be kept healthy
while fattening if given plenty of green
food to eat.
Properly managed there is no class OF
stock that can be made to turn money
more rapidly than hogs.
Fall pigs that are wintered over and
fattened the next fall nearly always
prove expensive animals.
A little bran fed to the lambs daily
before weaving will help keep them in
q good, thrifty condition.
A change of pasture and feed is as
much relished by sheep as any other
class OF stock on the farm.
Wheat middlings is one of the very
best feeds that can be supplied to grow
ing pigs after they are weaned.
To make animals marketable early
they must be well bred ut the start and
then be well fed all of the time.
Lambs, wool, mutton and manure are
the four items of income with sheep,
and they ought to be profitable.
Vigor and hardness are often con-
founded and hardness is often made an
excuse for abusing stock by neglect.
While all the elements of growth are
in the skim milk, yet as soon rs the
calf is old enough it should be learned
to eat.
While sheep will eat down many
kinds Of weeds and sprouts it is not
good economy to compel them to live
upon them.
Either full bloods or good grades are
necessary in cattle to be able to secure
an early maturity; scrubs need q longer
time to grow.
Good wool is the farm product that
brings the most money in proportion to
what it takes from the farm and with
the least labor.
When hog is allowed the run of q
good pasture he will largely prescribe
for himself, and will keep healthier and
thriftier than if confined.
If growing cattle are to be wintered
largely on roughness it is very impor.
tant to provide good shelter in order to
keep in good condition.
So far as it is possible to avoid it
sheep should never be allowed to drink
large quantities Of water ut one time;
give them little and often.
Some good feeders prefer to winter
their pigs and then fatten in the spring
or early summer when they can have
the'run of the clover pasture.
The properly fattened animals NAL
keted the moment they reach the point
where further feed will entail loss,
are always profitable to the feeder.

ON THE LOOK OUT.

Russian Emigrants Affected With Cholera
reported to $50 on the Way to This COun.
try-On the Look Out For the Plague.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3O.--The follow.
ing dispatch was received Mt the state
department from the United States con.
sui Mt Glasgow: Cholera outbreal;
here among Russian emigrants for
America"
The consul ut Liverpool cabled as fol-
lows: "Cholera imminent. Strongly
urge medical inspection immigrants
under consular directions with official
disinfection."
THE department has already taken
the action recommended by the consul
at Liverpool" said Acting Secretary
Spaulding, of the treasury department.
''The news of the departments action
has not probably reached the consul"
The acting secretary continuing said
he believed every precautionary meas
ure that could be taken to prevent the
admission of cholera into the United
States had been taken. New suggestions
on the subject that might present them
selves would have the careful considera-
ton of the department. Under date of
August "a the minister from France to
the United States, NJ. Patenotre, sent
to the secretary of state, in conformity
with instructions from the French min
lister of foreign affairs, report pre-
sented to the consulting committee Of
public hygiene of France announcing
the results of the investigation COM
menced by the board of health concern
ing the recent epidemic of cholera in
the department of the Seine. NJ. Pate
notre in his note says it appears mani
fest from the report that the epidemic
was not imported cholera; that the
cases examined being solely due to the
use of Seine water of bad quality never
formed a contagious center of infection,
and finally that at present the sanitary
situation has improved to such degree
that all danger may be considered to
be avcrted.

direction of the supervising surgeon
general of the marine hospital service
who has taken steps for the appoint

Servant Bridget Sullivan Desc RIDES the
Scenes In the House OF Death.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 29.-The
principal witness in the Borden
case Saturday afternoon was Bridget
Sullivan, the family servant. She
told in detail all the doings of the
household on August and up to the
murder, even to the taking in of the
milk can in the morning and Mr.. Bor-
denis coming to breakfast without any
collar. The evidence was very DAM
aging to the defendant
John Cunningham, newsdealer, gave
unimportant testimony and Reporters
Manning and Stephens, of two local pa
pers, testified that they could find no
footprints in the grass, about the house
or on the fence.
Counsel for the defense was stirred
up last night over the story that Ma
iron Regain had heard a quarrel be-
tween the Borden sisters, and Attor-
ney jennings, at the solicitation Of
the reporter who wrote the article,
seconded by number of prominent cit
liens, drew up a form of affidavit,
denying the statements attributed
to her and submitted it to Mrs.
Regain for her signature. She refused
to sign it unless the marshal said so,
and the marshal positively refused to
allow her to do anything of the kind
unless she was placed on the witness
stand

FARM NOTES.

Sifted coal ashes will aid materially
in Tightening heavy soil and making
it more porous.
The grape needs dry, well drained
soil, and good cultivation and close
pruning every season.
One item in fattening fowls econom-
ically is to supply the food in way
that is easily digested.
Whenever the potatoes are dry they
should be kept out of the sun or their
quality will be injured.
In arranging the poultry quarters it
is quite an item to provide good ventila-
ton without draughts.
There is no economy in allowing ma
nure to lie around Get it out on TO the
land as soon as possible.
When cleaning out the nests and
quarters all of the old materially should
be gathered and burned.
Commercial manures can often be
used to good advantage with winter
wheat applied as top dressing.
In nearly all cases, except in the gar
den, it is better to let manure rot in the
ground rather than in the heap.
If you go into fruit growing for mar
ket go into it Systematically and
theoretically, but not ON too large
scale
As the pasturage fails other foods
must be supplied to take its place, even
if it becomes necessary to feed grain,
while with all classes of stock some
bedding is necessary; too much is near
ly always disadvantage.
Some farmers make n mistake in Dig
ging drains too deep. Drains, of what
ever material made, should never, par
ticularly in the northern states, be over
three feet. This places them below
freezing, which is all that is neces-
sary.
There are many owners of farms who
are successful in raising good farm
crops and who might have fine, pleas
ant and wholesome supply of fresh
fruits the year round, but who do not
1t is mainly because they do not give
attention to the subject at the right
time, and the preparation for such an
admirable family supply is omitted
through the crowd of other business

crop it is necessary to select the seed
corn with a view to progagating the
largest, thriftiest, earliest and the most
productive. Select several rows Of corn

through this and select the earliest that

long broad leaves Do not select any
stalk containing less than two ears.

Turkey Must Pay For the Turning of DIR.
BartIett's House - FaIsehOOd Not d.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-Constantin
pie dispatches, stating that the burn
ing of the house of Rev. Dr. Bartlett,
the American missionary at Bordour,
Asia Minor, for which prompt repara-
ton has been demanded by the
United States, has been traced to
carelessness of an American servant,
are quite at variance with reports
made by the American board of commits
sioners for foreign mission and trans
mitted TO the state department, and arc
also condradicted by dispatches re-
ceived from Mr.. Pendletoh King, the
American charge daffaires at Constan-
tinople. The experience OF the Ameri-
can legation in Turkey in the case Of
numerous preceding outrages Of like
character, has been that the facts in
each case have been met by denials
from Said Pasha, the Turkish min
lister Of justice, sometimes in the
face of clearest proof, and some
plausible excuse, like that in the pres
emit instance has been assigned to ca
plain away the occurrences.
1t is understood that the explanation
will not delay the peremptory orders
given TO the gunboats. Newark and
Bennington, to proceed from Genoa to
Turkish waters as soon as possible
after the Columbus celebration of the
