The Split in New York Does Not Mean
Defeat.
The outline given in our New York
dispatches of democratic possibilities
does not purport to be authoritative,
but it accords so well with what is
known of Tammany and what the de-
mocracy of the country has the right
to expect of the national committee
that it is rather more than a shrewd
guess at q way out of the New York
muddle. There is no doubt whatever
that the Hill convention was regular"
and that the delegates then chosen were
also regular" It is equally certain
that the proposed May convention will
be technically a convention of "bolt-

The force of the explosion was ter

the shattered building. The police
found NJ. Very lying on the floor of
the restaurant in the midst of heaps
of debris, groaning with fright and
pain. One of his legs had been
broken, and he was sent to the hos
pital, where it has been found neces-
sary to amputate his leg. A grand

not injured, but she has lost her

shock she received, and il raving

is confined almost entirely to the
building in which Very's restaurant
was located. A detachment of troops

of private land claims today handed
down its second decision, affirming in

Mr.. Black began the entertainment
with duet, which was justly appre-
ciated.
Miss Esther Hoffman recited a
piece in which she was "glad she was

for one so young.

Messrs. Hoffman, Black, Roth and
Hodges next sang that their "hearts
were breaking for Marguerite" They
seemed to be in fear of being for
gotten by Marguerite, or they sang so.
Miss Dot Dickenson's fiugers then
swept swiftly over the keyboard, pro-
ducing the fascinating melodies of
zephyr blowing upon an @olian Tyre.
Miss Lizzie Allen gave the audi
ence a curtain lecture which they
will not forget, but twas of no avail.
Mrs. Cau6le Is still trying to find out
the mysteries of Odd Fellowship.
Mr.. Block sang a comic song, and
sang it very well, "That's what We
Think, don't Your"
Mrs. Sebbins delighted the audi
ence with solo. We are not at
present acquainted with the members
of the angelic choir, but she certainly |
must have heard them sing.
Rev.. and Mrs. Hoffman sang a
duct, and Imagination carried us
away to the sylvan scenes of our boy
hood, to murmuring brooks and war

carried away, but we were.
Miss Blanche Rothgeb sang solo
about sailor boy who wanted to go
home to his father, and he finally
obtained his wish, but his language
was too fine for sailor under such

beautiful song sung by beautiful
voice.
The male quartet then sang anoth-
er song, and about this time supper
was announced.
Miss Lille Wertz entertained a Sc

ter which we all waltzed to the din

WILL PASS THE DIVIDEND.

New YORK, April 26.-An evening
paper says the stockholders of the
United States express company
usually look for the regular notice of
the close of the transfer books of the
company preparatory to the declara-
tion of the semi-annual dividend.
Last November the semi-annual was
passed, but it was not expected that
that would be done a second time in
succession, but such is the case. No
dividend will be paid in May.
Thomas G. Platt, the president of
the company, readily admitted it to
"a reporter today. "We have already
decided to pass the divided again,
but not because we have not earned
one but that we thought it better to
increase the surplus"

Good Resolutions,

Good resolutions are worth making.
1t is cowardly to refuse to make them
simply because we are afraid we will
not be able to keep them. But they
should be made humbly, efficiently,
with a purpose to carry them out,
and a determination to seek strength
for doing so from the Lord. There
ore men, and many OF them, who, as
the poet tells us, ''resolve and re-Ee-
solve, and die the same;" but thereare
others who keep themselves in perpet-
ual drill and progress by the pledge
which they reverently make rs part
OF their Christian conservation. There
is q danger in resolving in too large q
way-setting the stakes, as it were,
too far out-and thus providing for
discouragements and failures which
are sure to follow. Many q good craft
that sails off IRON the new year har-
Dor is shipwrecked because Of this in
discretion. A less ambitious method
is q safer, and therefore better one

The Sense Of Time in Sleep.

sleepy Italian town and joined a. party
of friends. 1t was in the late after
noon and I was very tired. I had
been rowing distance, and I soon
went up stairs, lay day down in
my boating fannels for, little rest
before dressing and fell directly asleep
one OF those stony moveless sleeps
that seem to tire more than rest one.
When ] awoke was surprised to see
by the light that it was not night, not
even morning; but by the shadows OF
OF late afternoon, and from my sense
Of having been asleep a long, long
time, l realized that / had slept for
twenty-four hours. A little dazed
and ashamed of myself I got ready,
went down and joined my friends.
They did not seem to pay much at
tention to my absence; in short, they
did not act at all strange, and when I
apologized for not having joined them
at dinner the day before they said:
why, you were not here , and in
some way or other little by little, it was
borne upon me that I had been asleep
about ten minutes. If I had been
alone should certainly have lost @

How to Cheaper Feeds.

The prices OF feed bid fair to be high
the coming winter, and such will con-
tinue to be the case every winter, as
long as there is such a tremendous de-
mand for all sorts OF millstuffs, on the
part OF dairy farmers, all over this
broad land. The dairymen are all right
in their IDEAS of feeding we'll, but they
are all wrong in not growing more OF
their own feed.
Wheat is way down to the lowest
notch we have seen in thirty years,
and bran climbing up in price every
day. We are not certain but those
farmers who are we'll situated to do it
had better buy the wheat by. the car
load and get it ground at the custom
mill, and feed the bran and middlings,
selling the flour for what they can rea-
lie.
If we were in Northern Dakota or
Minnesota we would not sell wheat at
fifty cents a bushel, if we had good
COWS to feed it to, and butter thirty
one cents a pound in Chicago. Webe-
lieve there are four pounds OF butter
in q bushel OF wheat fed to q good
COW, with good roughage in addition.
But whether in Dakota or New
York, everywhere the dairy farmer is
at the mercy OF the feed vender. This
would not be so if the majority set
seriously to work to produce their
own feed, in some form or other. The
mischief is, the most of farmers stop
feed when prices Of feed 60 high, no
matter what the price of butter is.
What q lot of education we all do need
on this feed question. There is so
littlereal figuring on it-so little really
studied out by the dairy farmers by
which they can figure. ~
The way to bring down the price OF
feed stuff is for more farmers to go at
growing peas and silage corn. Not
one man in a Thousand knows what
he could do if he should try.-Hoard's
Dairyman.

In unrest.
