Fanny DoolittIe.

Last Saturday afternoon at the
residence of her bereaved parents
90 Grove street the last expression
Of earthly tributes and ritual rites
was made over the remains of
Fanny Doolittle. About two
months ago she went to Central
New York State in hopes of re-
gaining strength, but at the expir-
alton of months visit she met
with anuntimely accident and was
compelled to be brought home by
her mother. From that time un-
til her death she was great suf-
ferer. Her intense agony excited
the pity of all who visited her; her
death is loss to the M. E. Sunday
School as a member and as a
friend to host of young people
whe knew and loved her.

Another Fish Story.

1t was on very pretty lake not very
far away where there are boats and
many people go to fish or enjoy sail on
its placid waters.
They were party Of four and baby,
and were rowing lazily over the lake.
The bottom of the boat was dry and
clean and thay laid the baby down on it
where he lay on his back quiet and con-
tented.
His mother sat in the stern just back
of HIM holding a long line at the end of
which was spoon hook being trolled by
the motion of the boat through the water.
Suddenly there was a mighty tug on
the line and the lady began hauling itin,
hand over hand, in her excitement for.
getting all about her offspring.
In another moment she pulled out OF
the water the biggest pickerel on record
at that lake and landed him square on
top of her infant.
For little time it was hard to tell which
was fish and which was baby except
that the infant made the most noise.
They were finally .iisentangled and
the baby rescued,
think of the two, the pickerel was the
largest He weighed 4 pounds.

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS HOUSE;
we came here, and have
remained here ever since. :
Last Monday these gentlemen
went fishing in the Springs House
lake, not expecting to catch any
thing. They were agreeably sur
prised, however, as were also the
guests of the house, for they re-
turned with seven large speckled
beauties as the result of halt
hours Fish. DR.. Howe and Mr.
T.. ]. Phelps also had success in cap
turing the coveted trout in nearby
streams two weeks ago. The pro
pr1etor of the White Sulphur
Springs House gave the editor OF
the RECORD a set of five fine pho
tographic views of the house
grounds and falls, and Passacites
desiring to see them are invited
to call at the RECORD Office. The
place is 4 miles west of Liberty
which is best reached via the On
tario and Western Railway, whose
cars are complete modern luxuries
equipped with all conveEiences
including water and towels in the
toilet room of day coaches-a con
venience hard to find even on
trunk lines. The conductors and
trainmen are as courteous and OBJ
liging a lot of men as the travelling
public can find anywhere; and IN
these respects they emulate their
chief officers Mr.. J. E. Childs and
Mr.. 7. C. Anderson. We remem-
Der meeting a great many New
Jersey people at different places
in Sullivan County, and now as
the season closes it is well to re-
mind our readers to remem Der,

next summer, that Liberty and its
environs rank among the best OF

A Needed Convenience.

1t is wonder why a fact SO patent to
tens of thousands of those who daily
travel over the ferries of the Hudson
river from New York to the Jersey shore,
should not cause the companies to show
disposition to add to their service an
improve ment of such costless character
and of far-reae hing and houndless bene-
ficence as cooler of ice water. While
the convenience of screw boats, double
decks, swift speed, electric lights, airy
cabins, frequent trips. perfect discipline
and excellent service throughout is duly
appreciated, cool drink of water to
quench thirst or cover an emergency
caused by sickness or accident, would
add to the popularity of the service as
we'll as prove public benefit.

The fatal accident was said to have been

PROBABLY GUILTY."
Lizzie Borden Held at Fall River for
Her Fathers Murder.

Arguments were heard by Judge Blais-
iell, OF the District Court, at Fall River,
Mass, in the case of Miss Lizzie Borden, &C.
FUSED of the murder of her father and step
mother. The evidence was reviewed by
10Th Mr.. Jennings, Miss Borden's counsel,
and the District Attorney, and at the close
the Judge declared Miss Borden probably
guilty and held her for the action of the
Grand Jury.
Mr. A. j. Jennings, counsel for the de-
fendant, commenced his argument at 1873
and closed at 1l:05. He contended that tne
State had failed to prove that there exisre I
an opportunity for the prisoner to commit
the crime, and that it based it's case on
merely the inconsistencies in the story told
by Lizzie Borden OF her whereabouts on tue
morning of the murder.
District Attorney H. NJ. Knowlton fo'-
lowed His argument was mastery sum :
ming up of the evidence. His langua.
was simple, and he forged aroaa
the accused a solid cham of "a:
cumstantiaI evidence. He said ra-
motive tnat caused Lzz.e Borden to kdi
her parents was her anxiety to inherit tls
property, and he declared that she, ami Sd :
alone, cid the deed.

was the bloody dress which she wore, but
the evidence was so strong that aside from
these things the Court must find that she is
probably guilty.
When District Attorney Kno ylton had
finished his summing up for toe prosecution
Judge Baisdeli SAID: sympathy should be
laid aside. and duty, stern duty, re-
aulres upon this evidence that
but one thing be done. Supposing that
a man was seen in the cham
ber of Mrs Borden. the guest chamber of
death, and that he was in the room of the
father when death came; suppose that a
man should tell as many different stories as
Lizzie Borden had done, the way would be
plain. ] find that she is probably guilty.
When Lizzie Boroen was pronounced prob
ably guilty, hundreds OF people gave way to
tears, and the scene in the courtroom was
truly affecting.
She was committed to Taunton Jail with
out bail to await the action OF the Grand
Jury.

To Niagara Falls and Back.
Through the Coal FIelds.--Across
Country to the Shawangunk
NUnnntafns.

A flying trip across country is always
interesting though stops at important
points are necessarily brief.
Some three weeks ago we started on
such trip over the popular Lehigh
Valley R. R. through the coal fields of
Pennsylvania, with the intention of Wis
iting Buffalo, Niagara Falls and other
points of interest. We left Jersey City
at $50 A. M. and after quick run
across New Jersey, we crossed the
Delaware river at Easton Pa. and were
soon rushing along up the Lehigh Valley;
stopping at Bethlehem, Allentown and
Mauch Chunk. Our train, drawn by a
powerful engine. rapidly ascends the
steep grade to White Haven. Changing
engine we ascend the great Blue Ridge
mountains, reaching an altitude of over
1000 feet. Passing the big Glen Sum-
nit Hotel and rounding Wapwallopen
curve we reach Penobscot Point and
stop a few minutes at Slochum siding to
view the Wyoming Valley, which is
thirtv-one miles long. The view is sim
ply grand. Wilkesbarre is in full view
600 feet below US and at distance of
three miles: from this point we descend
the mountain at the rate of o6 feet to
the mile and run a distance of thirteen
miles before reaching Wilkesbarre where
we stop twenty minutes for lunch.
Leaving Wilksbarre. with its extensive
coal mines. we are soon passing the his
torlc grounds of the Wyoming Mas
sacre. On the left bank of the river is

The hedgehog runs the roads freely.
He is quaint little fellow, our hedge
pig, having far more intelligence than
people give him credit for. 1t is curl
Gus, as you stand perfectly still in the
middle of road, to see him come run
ming along, then stopping to sniff and
whine, and examine the strange object
that hardly breathes lest he startle the
little creature. Then with gentle
grunt he will pass you by. A very low
yet quite decided grunt he gives, and
he wines as well. Shakespeare, who
seems to have been most excellent
out-of-doors naturalist-a minute OBJ
server of life, indeed, in all shapes
noticed the hedgehog and wrote, THE
hedgehog whines at night" If any one
OF our readers possesses a tame hedge
hog, let him examine the eye of the
creature if he has not already done so.
1t the eye is the index to the mind, as
firmly believe it to be, the hedgehog
knows great deal, and only uses his
knowledge for his own special benefit

FATTENING SWINE.
The Importance of Encouraging Appetite
and Digestion.

ana DlSestlon.
The hog fattens quickly, more quick
ly than other animals but it requires
a corresponding amount of food to com
plete the process. Mr.. A. Sells thinks
that quick and cheap fattening de-
ponds greatly upon the health and
age of hogs Within limits we do not
believe this. The hog will fatten just
as quickly and cheaply the second year
as it will the first. On account of the
rapid digestion, hogs cannot assimilate
all the nourishment from the dry food,
and this should be prepared in such a
manner as to make loss as little as pos
sible, either cooked or bruised. Tc
feed the hogs until all parts have
changed to fat Mr.. Sells very wisely
does not consider profitable, for the
fatter they grow, the slower they in
crease in weight. TO begin the fatten.
ing with rich food from the start is a
wasting. Corn or peas should be left
for the latter part of that process. Some
rules have to be observed in fattening
to insure success. The best rule is to
have one food succeeded by one more
nourishing, and when the appetite be-
gins to diminish, to feed less in quan-
tity but more in quality.
The time for feeding should be kept
as regular as possible, else the hogs
grow restless. The pen also ought to
be kept somewhat dark, and provided
with dry bedding AS much as the
breeding animals need exercise for
their prosperity, the hogs for fattening
need rest and quietness. An old prov
erb correctly states it thus; "Rest and
quietness is half of the fattening." We
have quoted from the gentleman above
named. The idea of a dark pen is O
new one to us, and we are hardly pre-.
pared to adopt it.
To encourage appetite and digestion
he gives daily some salt and ashes art
antimony, which he should not do, a.
least so far as the anthony is con
cerned.
Always try to raise the best and wha'
the market calls for. Raise hogs wheI
they are cheap so you will have some
for sale when they are dear. With {
little care and when well provided witt
proper food shelter and pasture, in or
der to give them exercise, hog-raisinl
is no trick at all, and it is almost Il.
easy to raise litter of pigs as it is Il
raise n patch of Canadian thistles. -

AGRICULTURAL HINTS.

CELERY blight is due to fungus
growth. and the best remedy is an am
moniacal solution of copper sprayed on
the plants frequently.
THERE is but one remedy for blight
on the pear tree, and that is to cut off
the blightcd branch as soon as the first
signs of the disease appear,
SUCH weeds as purslaine, pigweed,
ragweed, etc, are serviceable. Throw
them into the pig-pen. Waste nothing
that can be made serviceable.
Do NOT use the hoe among the melons
except in front of the vine, but pull the
weeds out by hand, as disturbing the
vines after they begin to run may
prove injurious.
PROF. GoFF'S experiments through
Six seasons with seed from ripe and
unripe tomatoes seem to prove that i'm
mature seed reduces the size of the
plant, but increases its fruitfulness.
IT has been suggested that an excel
lent mode of DISCRIMINATING such weeds
as dandelious, dock and even thistles
from lawn is to offer bounty to the
younger members of the family for
every weed secured.
HIRAM SIBLEY, of Rochester, n. Y,
who made much of his money in early
life upon farm, once said there never
was dollar made fattening an animal.
If you make any money it must be on
the growth and not on the fat,
A POT of paint, kept convene ntly for
painting farm implements, will save
more than its cost and the labor in a
short time. The cutters and tin-work
on the roofs of houses and barns should
not be overlooked in the use of paint
VEGETABLE gardeners who set their
cucumber plants in shallow trenches
instead of little hills, as is usually done,
claim to have far better crops than
under the old system, Tbs plants dc
not dry out so fast and the leaves are
