Around the foot of the rock was a
strong eddy which might suck MAIDS

For ten minutes or more the sailors
kept standing off and on" till the

while the daring boy, perched on the

At length bis fathers strong voice
came to him over the water: "Now !"
Mingling with tho shout came the

Exerting all his strength, the boy
leaped far beyond the treacherOus eddy

overhead.

Sunday Closing of the Exposition.

1.-THE combat deepens !" Never has
there been such stirring up of the
nation on the subject of the Sabbath as
is being caused by the proposition to
open the Columbian Exposition on
that day. 1t is drawing a sharp line
of fdemarkatiOn-On the one side are
ranged the earnest Christians, the tenn
perance people, and the great body of
the the working people; on the other
are the sO-called liberal Christians, the
saloon men and the kid-glOved, self
chosen, representatives of the laboring
classes. With them are undoubtedly
many sincere men and women who
have been deceived by the speoiOus
reasOniugs about shutting up the
Fair to turn people into the Saloons"
1.-The poor workingman's only chance
of seeing the Fair" and the like.
The assertion has been made over
and over again that saloon men unite
with Christians in desiring a closed
Exposition on Sunday, as they know
that it means full saloons. Persons
making this assertion can not read
liquor papers; without exception, so
far as we have seen, and we read these
papers with care, they all ridicule the
idea of having the Exposition closed
on Sunday, speaking of it in very
much the same way they do of the ef-
fort to exclude liquor-selling from the
grounds. They know that Sabbath
breaking by going to the Fair is a
great incentive to drinking; Sabbath
breaking and drinking go together
elsewhere; why should they not there ?
The assumption that if the Fair is
closed there is nothing better in Chi
cagO for the crowds to do than to go to
the saloons Is an insult to Chicago. IF
its church accommodations of to-day
are not sufficient for expected thous-
ands, neither are it's saloon accommo-
dations; these will have to be greatly
increased why take it for granted
that the others will not be increased
likewise? We know that plapa are
now on foot to provide proper sabbath
accommodations for the expected
| thousands.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
FACTS FOR FARMERS.
A CHAPTER AS TO SOWING CLOVER ON
WHEAT.

WHEAT.
The usual method in this section in
growing clover, is to SOW the seed on
wheat land, very early in the sea-
son. In fact many farmers sow the
clover seed on the snow, trusting to
the rains and waters from the melting
snow to carry the seed down and assist
IN covering it. The object of this
method of sowing clover is to keep the
land in clover and secure a crop of
wheat, by which arrangement no loss
OF time ensues, while the wheat pro-
tects 1t from the influence of the
sun during warm weather.
PREPARING FOR CLOVER SEED.
When the land contains wheat that
has been drilled in, there is an uneven
surface for the clover seed to fall upon
and as the surface of the ground is
hard, It Is impossible TO have the seed
cover the ground evenly, as farmers
consider themselves fortunate when
the fields are evenly covered with
young clover. There is a great loss
of seed by exposure to severe cold.
much OF it failing to find covering. and
large part is also destroyed by birds.
as well as washed away. If the clover
fails to make an even catch, the fact is
not discovered until it is too late to
reseed the field, and should the clover
not be uniform over, the crop becomes
unsightly. As was recommended he
fore, the wheat field should be harrow
ed over before seeding to clover.
which not only benefits the Young
wheat but gives the clover an 0ppor-
tunity of finding Judgement in the
soil.
FERTILIZERS FOR WHEAT AND CLOVER.
As a spring application for wheat
there is nothing equal to nitrate of
soda. the effect of the application being
manifested as soon as the grow
ing season sets in, but the special ma
nure for clover is land plaster. When
drilling wheat in, during the fall,
! superphosphate is considered the best
fertilizer, but the nitrate is more avail
able for providing plant food when
the young plant needs an invigorator.
Land plaster is form of lime that is
partially soluble, and enables young
! clover to secure lime food as soon as
the roots are formed. Glover is a
plant that prefers potash and lime as
its food, and its roots fill up every
square inch of tho soil if the crop is
I thrifty aud vigorous. After wheat is
removed the best fertilizer'for clover is
wood ashes. One point to observe
when sowing clover seed on wheat is
to use plenty of seed, as large portion
will fail to germinate.

Reybold Gains His Suit at Last.

Anthony Reybold has won his suit
against the Salem and Philadelphia
Navigation Co. The case has been
appealed from one Court to another for
many years. The Supreme Court de-
cided Tuesday that the Steamboat
Company must pay the money. The
Steamer Swan was leased TO the Gov
ernment during the war with the un-
derstanding that the Government
should pay the pilot. This was not
done and Mr.. Reybold, then IA member
of the Company. worked on the case
with the understanding that he should
have, for his own use, any sum which
he might recover. Finally the gov
ernment paid to the Steamboat Com
pany the sum of $3,898I8. which
money was retained by the company
Mr.. Reybold demanded payment and
was refused. He then commenced
suit in the Superior Court in New Cas-
tie County and obtained a favorable
verdict. The case was appealed and the
settlement was not made until the Su-
preme Court of the United States decid-
ed in favor of Mr.. Reybold. The costs ol
the litigation will have to be paid by
the Company. Senator Gray and E.
G. Bradford, Esq, represented Rey-
bold and Senator Higgins and w. q,

In a Maze of Wires.
4OO STRINGS REACH OUT AND TAP
THE NEWS OF NORTH, EAST,
SOUTH AND WEST.

1t requires nearly 400 wires for the
Western Union Telegraph Company
to keep in touch with the outside
world, and even with these facilities it
sometimes has difficulty in performing
Its functions both to us and the people
outside. Standing behind the great
switchboard in the operating room at
Tenth and Chestnut streets, the unin.
itiated visitor is perfectly bewildered
by the multitude of wires which encir-
Gle him on every side in apparently
the greatest confusion.
THREE GREAT TRUNK LINES.
Never was there anything more
thoroughly systematized however.
Instead of having the various lines
running off prOmiscuOusly to the sur
rounding country, the bulk of the bus
mess is done over three great trunk
lines running respectively to the New
York, the South and and the West.
Tie greater of these trunks is of course
to New York, over which is handled
not only the business with that city,
but with all points to the north of it
and in New England. The system in
cludes $50 wires which are carried out
OF the city on ten lines of poles, four
along thee railroads and six over the
highways.
TO THE SOUTH AND WEST.
Next to the New York in size comes
the trunk to the South, which gathers
up the odds and ends from every point
south of Mason and DixOn's line and
West of the Chesapeake Bay. 1t i'm
cludes l25 wires and nine lines of poles
of which four are along the railroads
and five along the turnpikes.
Only ~ wires constitute the trunk to
the West, but they handle.a large
amount of business. Four lines of
poles carry the wires, two of them
along the railroads and two over the
highways. The business of the PENN
sula between the Delaware and Chesa-
peake Bays is gathered on Thirteen
wires, which flash the news directly in
the Tenth and Chestnut office.
FROM NEW JERSEY POINTS.
Northern New Jersey points reach
Philadelphia through New York, but
the interior and South Jersey get in
on % direct wires. The Western
Union exchanges with the Philadel-
phia, Reading and Pottsville Tee-
graph Company, whose wires cover the
Philadelphia aud Railroad system, and
it has therefore no wires to the Schuyl-
kill Valley points.
