SERIOUS CUTTING AFFRAY.
Ed Cousins Stabbed in the Abdomen by Will
lam Edwards-It Occurred on the Circle.

A fight on the Circle between Ed Cousins
and William Edwards, about noon yester-
day, resulted In Cousins being taken to the
City Hospital with q serious cut about six
inches long across the abdomen. Persons
who saw the fight say that Cousins was
the agressor throuahout and that Edwards
merely defended himself Edwards was
sitting on box eating his dinner when
Cousins came up and rubbed his hands over
the back Of his neck. Edwards told him
to quit Cousins repeated the action and
Edwards said: go away and leave
me alone; You know l don't
like you anyhow" and then rose to
his feet. Cousins told him If
he would shut up his knife he (Cousins)
would lick" him. Edwards shut his
knife and Cousins began cursing and abus-
ing him; Edwards retreated several feet,
followed by Cousins, who made an unsuc-
cessful attempt to secure q half brick lying
down after that brick you'll never get NO."
Finally Cousins succeeded in getting hold
of the brick and threw it at Edwards, who
ct that time was very close to him. Ed
wards lodged the brick and struck his as
sailant in the abdomen with the weapon.

Without saying q word Cousins staggered
few feet and fell into the gutter.
He was picked up by some white
men and laid upon the sidewalk.
The ambulance was telephoned for and he
was removed to the City Hospital. After
the cutting Edwards went TO mis- home, 3l4
East Court street, and changed clothes.
He then returned to the scene of the fight,
and from there went to the police station
and surrendered himself
Several white persons who saw the fight
say that after Cousins had fallen upon the
ground Edwards walked mp to him and
kicked him on the head. They also say
made no effort to stop the fight, nor did
they offer to assist Cousins after he. was
wounded.

wARMED-ovER DISHES,

Don't let the family get contempt
for warmed-over dishes. When you do
get up such dish, be sure you make it
SO good that no fault whatever m ay be
found with it; and do not have too many
dishes of this class. Try to cook enough,
and just enough, but should there be q
little left, make good use of it.
In the first of this series we will tell
one way of using up the bit of hash that
was left from breakfast. Let us sup.
pose there was only a spoonful or two
left, not enough for another meal, or to
combine with other meat for the next
breakfast. If it was chicken, or corned
beef, hashed with potatoes and not
chopped so very fine, chop till quite fine
and mix with it a little mayonnaise
dressing. Now spread 1T between thin
slices of buttered bread, and you have a
few sandwiches to serve for supper to
vary the bread and butter. Some of the
family are sure TO be fon1 of sandwiches.
If the hash was we'll made and the
sandwiches put up in good form no one
will ever guess that they were made
from the hash that was left over.
If there is a lunch to be put up for
anyone you can give them occasionally
a sandwich of this kind without buying
meat for that purpose alone.-S st. Louis

OCCASIONAL sUBsoILINa.

Probably no work on the farm pays so
we'll as that done with the subsoil plow
on land that has been well underdrained.
The advantage of subsoiling is that one
operation lasts number of years, and
If the drainage is perfect, the land never
loses the porosity which the subsoil
plow gives it. If new land we're drained
as soon as the forest were cleared from
it, subsoiling would not be needed. The
decay of roots of trees in the subsoil
makes a natural drainage way through
which superauous or stagnant water can
pass. But in ninety-nine cases out of
100 drainage is not resorted to until the
compacting of soil and its inability to
carry off water makes drainage neces-
sary. Then after the underdrain is
down it takes years of freezing and
thawing and clover growing to establish
the old water courses again, or rather to
make new ones. The subsoil plow helps
this work amazingly. 1t should folio W
the drain, and it will do good to repeat
the subsoiling every few years, thus
enabling the soil to hold more water
without being saturated, because the
surplus must always pass off wherever
an outlet is provided for it.-American
Cultivator.

The phrase "That beats Bob-tail" is
not uncommon even now in many parts
of the country, especially in the South.
Its origin is traceable to a race which
occurred about 1910, or shortly before
that year, on the famous Fairfield track
on the Mechanicsvllle turnpike near
Richmond, Va.
In those days Bob Poindexter lived in
Richmond. He was sporting man,
wore fine clothes and owned number of
horses. Among the animals was one he
named Pizarro, plain bay gelding,
with black name and tail, the latter
bobbed short.
There was nothing extraordinary
sbout the horse, and nobody looked
upon him ss a Iaccr. But Poindexter
took notion that he could run. He
used to drive Plzarro about Richmond
hitched to buggy. On the day that
he was advertised to appear on the track
great crowd was present and excite
ment ran high, for great deal of money
had been put up on other horses. To
the astonishment of everybody Pizarro
beat every horse on the track, and the
people went fairly wild.
tailed Pizarro never made much
of record. He won two or three races
and then went to pieces. For years
afterward when anything extraordinary
happened in that section it was said of
1t, "That beats Bob tail. - Baltimore

Cooking by Electricity.

An electrical cooker is one of the
novelties. II the claims for the inven.
tion can be substantiated, the woes of
the long-suffering housekeeper are about
to vanish forever. The comforts of home
will be secured without any of its
worries. Smutty, smoky, disagreeable
coal and frisky, treacherous gas is to
give place to electricity. Beefsteaks will
be cooked by lightning. The drowsy
housewife can push an electric button
before she arises in the morning and the
tea-kettle will be humming a merry well
come when she gets down to the kitchen.
The day of the pine board and the
butchers knife is doomed. The public
is destined to be treated to no more har-
rowing tales of kerosene oil explosions.
And all this, the enthusiastic inventor
claims, is at marvelously low COST

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Never use strong or rancid butter iu
seasoning vegetables.
A scant cup of butter will often make
lighter cake than full cup.
Onions and apple sauce are the pecu-
liar accompaniment of a goose.
Milk Is better for being kept over
night in small tins than il a larger
quantity is kept over In one vessel.
1t is said that to chew parsley after
eating onions will remove the odor of
the latter. Orris root has the same
effect.
A turkey when we'll cooked should be
evenly Drowned all over. Cranberry
sauce or currant jelly is the proper &C.
compartment.
It is better to keep baked pastry in
cupboard than in refrigerator, as it
would be apt to get damp and heavy in
the latter place.
To keep jellies from moulding, cover
them with pulverized sugar to depth
of quarter of an inch. They will keep
for years if this is done.
For mildew, which is not an uncom-
mon plant foe, dust with sulphur or
sprinkle with sulphur water. Also dig
a little SCOT into the soil.
A spray of pure oil of turpentine
mixed with one per cent. of lavender oil
is said to have an astonishing effect in
purifying the air of living rooms, the
action being attributed to the ozone
formed.
The crepe tissue paper which can be
bought in many colors for twenty cents
yard makes the prettiest candle shades,
and is much used for fruits and small
sachets intended for favors for germans
and dinners.
An excellent remedy for inAamed eyes
is to soak little sassafras pith in boil
ing water; let it draw until the water
becomes Shiny and then strain through
thin muslin. Bathe the eyes frequently
with the liquid.
A large piece of charcoal laid in the
refrigerator will help to keep it sweet.
It should be renewed once a week.
When meat and poultry are brought in
to the house and are not eaten the same
day, piece of charcoal inside the poul-
try will keep itsweet.
A handy receipt for curing hams is
this: Take four quarts OF salt, four
ounces saltpetre, four pounds of brown
sugar dissolved in water. Pack one
hundredweight of hams closely together
and pour this pickle over them; let
them remain ten days and then smoke
At this season of the year, when many
heavy articles, counterpanes, etc., are to
be washed it is we'll to know of an easy
and perfectly safe method. Into an or
dinary sized boiler half full of water put
one teacup of this mixture: One pound
potash, one ounce salts tartar, one ounce
muriate Of ammonia: add the clothes
and boil half an hour; rinse through two
waters and dry.

FARM ACCOUNTS.

The simplest form of accounts is the
best for farmer. A complete set of
books as may be necessary in store is
not required. AS the farm business is
mostly made up selling and buying, the
whole of the bookkeeping may be done
with two books, a cash book and a
ledger. Or ledger only may be used i,
having one account for the cash. The
double entry system is the best and the
simplest. This consists of making a
double entry of each transaction, as thus
A load of hay is sold; if for cash, the
cash account is charged with the money
received, and farm account, or the par
ticular field account, is credited. If
something is bought and paid for, cash
is credited with the amount and farm is
charged. If the cash is not received or
paid in either case, the parties are
charged or credited, as the case may be.
This is all that is necessary. Afterward,
when facility has been gained, separate
accounts may be kept for each depart
ment. as the live stock, dairy, or each
field of the farm.--New York Times.

REMEDY FOR THICK MIX.

Thick milk from heifer is no doubt
due to something in the heifer. The
blood is not in healthy state, and some
treatment is necessary. Give pound of
epson salts dissolved in quart of warm
oatmeal or linseed Cruel, and note the
result; If not effective, repeat in two
days. 1t may be that the feed or the
water is at fault, and this should be
looked to. Sometimes neglect to give
salt regularly has this result. This thick
ening OF the milk is caused by a fer.
mentation in it that may be due to
various causes, but it is mostly caused
by the condition of the COW. Sometimes
it has been caused by impure water, and
sometimes by uncleanliness Of the pals
or pans.-American Dairyman.

plants. The seed should be planted on
the south side Of the open furrow, drop
ping two seeds near each other, then
leaving space of four or five feet, and
covering the seeds with earth enough
to keep them moist, say not
far from one-half an inch in
depth. On rocky land, or where the soil
is hard, dig out with a sharp spade a
small sod where the seeds are to be
planted, leaving the sod near the hole on
the south side for shade, and plant the
seed the same as in burrows. In favor
able season enough seed will germinate
to cover the land, but if the season be
unfavorable portion of the land will
have to be reseeded the following year.
Where the land is shaded by trees germ.
ination will be more certain; but in such
places, when the seeding pines are two
years old they should be let out into the
sunshine by removing the trees that shade
them.
In localities where Seeding pines that
grew naturally are numerous it Is not
expensive to cover land with pines by
transplanting the young trees; to do this
to the best advantage trees should be
selected that are not over six inches in
height. and in removing them small
ball of earth should be removed with
each tree, care being taken not to expose
the roots to the light or the air, and it is
always best to do the work on cloudy
days. The trees should be set five or six
feet apart, and as they grow sufficient
number should be cut out to prevent
crowding. When large enough for boz
boards or coarse lumber not more than
four or five trees should be left on each
rod of land.-Boston Transcript.
