The celebrated Farmers Club of Pennsylvania
have just been eating their annual dinner At
this feast the talk presumably confined 10
the practical phases of agriculture, TO a com
parlson OF methods of farming, TO a discussion of
tho result OF the years work, and 10 speculatons
touching the prospects OF the crops of next sea-
son. Perhaps sonnet on Ensilage was read. IL
is stated that among the well known hayseeds
present were George w. Childs, of The Phila-
depha Ledger; George b. Roberts, president
~ tho Pennsylvania Railroad Company; 4. 4.
Mcleod, president Of tho Philadelphia and Read
ing; Charles Hartshorn. second vice president Of
the Reading; Joseph Wharton, John Fritz, Robert
H. Sayre. CT Their fellow-a gricultirists the
country over can scarcely hope TO receive any
useful hints from the wisdom which flowed at the
dinner because n is also stated that the pro-

of a terrific explosion Yesterday morning caused
by the ignition of the magazine which con
tanned about one hundred and sixty pounds OF

before it reached the explosives and to this

The eighth annual exhibition of the National
Horse Show Association, which opens to-mor-
row morning at the Madison Square Garden at
0 o'clock, promises TO prove as successful and
as popular as its predecessors, and to main
tain its position as the principal event of the
NewYOrk autumn season. The programme
thus far arranged is an excellent one, and so
great has been the demand for tickets that
but few seats are left for any night of the
week. The number, both of entries and of
premiums, is considerably larger than that of
last year, and in addition to the medals and
cups over $4,000 in money Mizes will be
distributed among the winners of ribbons

true.
Another political legend is gone. In
France the Maid of Ratisbon. who by
her intr epidity saved n whole French
army from destruc ton during the
Napoleonic wars, has long been be-
lieved in no less implicitly than Joan
of Arc, or Jeanne Hachette of Beau
vais. or the Maid of Saragossa. Gen.
Marriott, in his memoirs, gives the true
version of the story. After the assault
upon Ra.isbon. he says, he was in COM
mand of a column which was ordered
to occupy a bridge affording the only
line of retreat for the Austrians.
Losing my way among the streets Of
the town." he goes on to say, II sud

bridge, but as we were still under fire,
she was afraid. Thereupon l ordered
her to be led by the arm at the head OF
the column by two grenadiers She
shrieked, but it was of no use. One of
the grenadiers was wounded in the
arm, and the blood squirting over the
poor terrified woman she tainted and
had to be carried. Napoleon, having
heard the story, asked to see the little
dressmaker and complimented her up
on the service she had rendered the
army" This is the origin of the lie.
