Plugged Each Other.

ST., LOUIS. April 11.-Five pistol
shots were discharged in the back room
of house No. 70s North Thirteenth
street about 9 O'Clock this morning.
When the room was entered shortly
after Howard Echols, Q m~ullatto, was
found dead on the floor with two bullet
holes in his body. and Jennie Harris,
also colored, was dying on the bed, hav.
ing been shot three times. A pistol
lwas lying at the side of each. The couple
had been living together, but had

Gentleman, but Poor Spoilers.

The Overland Monthly is proving
Andrew Jackson to have been q very
bad speller. This brings to mind the
familiar fact that George Washington
was not q very good one. In the
days Of Washington, and even in those
of jackson. they were not as careful
OF their photography as educated peo-
pie are now. Washington was
Washington; and we have the author
ity OF the late Josiah Quincy, who,
as aid to the Governor, went on to
New York to meet Jackson on his
visit as President to Massachusetts,
for stating that Jackson, with all the
rough side to his character, could be
an elegant gentleman in social inter-
course.-Boston Herald.

SHAVED AND SAVED.
The Job Was Done Quickly PROB

Kassim Pacha, when Minister OF
War for Egypt, vas very particular
in regard to the personal appearance
of his officers and issued stringent
orders that they should never appear
unshaven in public. One day he
met upon the street a Lieutenant
who had bearded the Pacha and dis
regarded his orders. "To what regi-
ment do you belong?" demanded the
indignant Minister. ITO the--regi-
ment at Abasseuh," replied the
frightened Lieutenant. "Get into my
carriage at once so that / can carry
you to the encampment and haveyou
publicly punished" was the stern
command which followed. The young
man obeyed, and the twain rode
along gloomily enough for some time,
when the Pacha stopped his carriage
and entered an office where he would
be detained for some time on, bust
ness. Selling the opportunity the
culprit sprang from the vehicle, dart
ed into a neighboring BARRIERS stall,
and regained his post before the re-
turn of his jailer, minus his beard.
For the remainder of the route the
officer buried his face in his hands
and seemed the picture of apprehen-
sion. Abasseuh was reached at last
and all the officers were assembled to
witness the degradation of their COM
rade. who all the while kept we'll in
the real of his chief. "Come forward,
you son of a dog?" cried the irrate
Pacha. when there steDned before him
an officer with q face as clean as
baby's and a look of the most SUI
preme innocence. His Excellency gave
one look of blank astonishment, and
then, with an appreciative smile break
ing over his war-worn features turned
to the assembled officers and said:
"Here, gentlemen, your old Minister
is a fool, and your young lieutenant
is a captain."-The Levant Her

Fresh Pastures Make Fat Cattle.

So says the old English adage, and it
contains the whole philosophy of pas
turing, which is rotation. Cows are
quite like children when it comes to
eating, they want to take their pie
first, says the Jersey Bulletin. Turned
into fresh pasture, cows invariably
wander around. picking here and there
until they have found out what they
think the choicest spots; when once
they have read the bill of-fare, as it
were, that is learned the pasture, 3hey
arc very systematic in feeding over it,
but of necessity they trample and foul
much so that they will not eat it.
Moreover there is always some grass
that COWS will not eat unless they are
hungrier than good cows ought ever
to be allowed to get, either because it
is too rank or because they do not fan
cy the taste; therefore it is an excel
lent plan to have pastures divided into
small fields and change the cattle from
one to the other, going over the Who'll e
in regular rotation. And it is still
better if a flock of sheep are allowed
to follow after the cows, because sheep
are not so fastidious as cows and eat
much OF the grass that COWS leave I'M
touched. By a little care in rotating.
cows can be kept for a long time on
what is practically fresh pasture.

Home Consumption of Fruit,

The farmer who plants ten or fifteen
pear trees, as many grape vines Of
early and late-keeping varieties, need
not think he will have great amour t
of fruit to sell if he has a large
healthy family. His profit Will come
in another way, in the greater enjoy
ment that he and his loved ones will
have, and mayhap money saving in
doctors bills that will net him more
profit than he could get by selling the
fruit and doing without at home. That
has too long been the practice of some
farmers. and they bring discredit on
their own business. The fruit owner
does well if he is his own best Gus
toner. He has right to be. BY thus
using freely he helps create better
market, and increase the respect of
the average city man for country life.

Home Hints.

The best mutton is of fine grain, a
bright color, the fat firm and white.
1t is better for being full-grown. The
ram mutton may be known by the
redness Of the flesh and the spongi-
ness of the fat.
An excellent remedy for infamed
eyes is to soak a little sassafras pith
in boiling water; let it draw until the
water becomes Shiny, and then strain
through thin muslin. Battle the ewes
frequently with the liquid.
To prevent the juice from pies run
ming over, thrust little tunnels of
white paper into the cuts on top.
through which the steam NAV escape
and the juice boil up. and then run
back into the pie again when it stops
cooking.
Most cakes need moderately hot
and some, even cool oven. A good
old test is to put piece of thick
paper into the oven, to shut the door
and open it again after five minutes
If the paper is of light brown color
the oven is moderately hot, and if vel
low the oven is cool

Farm Notes.

1t is a false economy to allow a crop
to suffer or go to waste for want of
sufficient help.
Ducks are enormous eaters, but they
grow to maturity very rapidly and
can readily be made profitable.
While hens will go in a dark place
to lay eggs. they will rarely hunt in
such place for something to eat.
Somebody will make every crop
grown on the farm pay. but no one
crop will be sure to pay every year.
Eggs from all hens are better for
Matching, than those from pullets
Remember this in filling the incuba-
tor.
Pasture down the fields farthest
from the barn site and save those that
are close to the stables for later pas
turing.
Have the fence tight around the
field in which the lambs are confined:
once they get to getting out they will
be difficult to restrain.
The pig has a place on the farm that
no other animal can fill as well: a.
work that he fills in the most perfect
sense, and with fair management will
always return good profit.
AS a preventive of disease do not
keep too many hogs together If a
large number are being fed, divide
into reasonable lots. It is ALWAYS an
item to reduce the risks as much as
possible.
When poultry have a good range,
one rooster to dozen hens is plenty,
but when confined in close quarters a
large number of roosters should be
kept, say one to an average of half a
dozen hens.
