WORLDS FAIR APPROPRIATION.
The Rouse Has the senate Amendments
Under Confederation.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 15.-There
are signs ia the House Of the approach
ing dissolution OF Congress.
Mr.. Watson, OF Georgia, asked con-
sent for the consideration OF resolu-
ton instructing the Committee on Labor
20 investigate the labor troubles at
COuer d'Alene, Idaho, and the conduct
OF the Sullivan police therein. Mr..
Pendleton, Of West Virginia, objected,
and the resolution was referred.
Mr.. Holman reported back the Sun
dry Civil Appropriation bill with Sen
ate amendments, with recommends
ton that all the Senate amendments be
non-concurred in. Mr.. Holman then
asked consent that all the amendments,
except those relating 20 the Worlds
Fair, be nOn-cOncurred 10, and that they
be considered in Committee OF the
Whole.
All the amendments except those re-
lating to the Worlds Fair were read
and non-cOncurred in.
Mr. McCreary opposed the appropria-
ton for the Worlds Fair. Mr.. Pen0le-
ton, of West Virginia, favored the ap-
preparation. Congress had gone further
in regard TO this Exposition than he
thought il seould have gone. But it had
crossed the bridge. and now il must go
on. It was the duty Of Congress TO take
no step backward. The House finally
adjourned without taking action.

ALon~ FIrht for the FIremen.

About four o'clock yesterday after
noon a still alarm called the Atlantic
company to the foot Of Jacob street, on
the creek bank, where a fire, started
among some'rubbish by boys, had spread
bevond control, and threatened adjoin-
ing property. The frsmen found they
had a hard fight before them, aud it re-
ouired two streams for three hours to
extinguiSh the blaze.

Bridges Blown Up.

WALLACE, IDAHO, July 1.-two railroad
bridges near Mullan were blown up last
night, and with them several telegraph
poles. The strikers also cut down nun
Der of telegraph poles, thus shutting OIL
communication by that route for time.
The Gem and Granite mines are all right;
The rumor that the Granite mine had
been blown up probably started from the
report of the explosion when the bridges
were destroyed. The military investment
of the town is complete.
No one is allowed to go out without
pass. 1t is probable that many OF the
union miners will be arrested tomorrow.

Atthe stnnn Bridge.

The work Of laying the track for the
electric motor line across the Main
street stone bridge is nearly finished.
The work has been kept back some
what by the delay in removing the
tracks of the B. & o. switch. 1t was
the intention to make the connections
on both ends OF the bridge and also re-
move the overhead wires after the cars
stopped running tonight, but it is now
thought that it will be the middle OF
next week before electric cars are run

Suppression of Weeds.

There are four chapters in the life history
of weeds, which should be well studied and
understood, says the Country Gentle-
man. The first is when they are sprouting
in the soil, stimulated by the warm weather
of spring. Turn up half an inch of the top
soil, and the white horns or sprouts from
the seeds will be visible. AT this stage of
their growth, these sprouts are very tender
aud brittle, when a slight stirring with the
steel rake or surface harrow will snap them
off. Nearly all kinds of common annual
weeds are quite small, and will not grow If
buried more THAI an inch or two
in depth. All that is necessary
therefore for destroying all that are start
ing, is to stir the soil well to this depth. The
starting weeds will be broken, crumbled
and destroyed, and mellow surface will be
left for the benefit of the crop. There are
tw o implements which may be employed to
do this work-the smoothing harrow aud
Breeds weeder. II tue teeth of the weeder
are set so as to incline well backward, it
will do nearly the same work as the smooth
ing harrow, ami may be passed broadcast
over the whole crop, its flexible teeth giving
1t some of the advantage of the spring tooth
harrow while it is drawn by single horse.
IL does not leave the surface of the ground
quite as level as the smoothing harrow.
The seed Of the corn crop, being so much
larger than the seeds Of weeds, may be
buried deeper, and the young plants are 50
large and strong that the teeth of the
smoother aud weeder glide over them with
out any injury. Potatoes may be Guilt
waited in the same way, but not being so
smooth as corn the plants may receive some
scratching. any little injury by which will
be many times everbalanced by toe culti-
walton OF the surface.
The gronnd where corn and potatoes have
been planted should be narrowed broadcast
by one Of these implements as often as once
a week until the plant becomes 30 large
that IL can be no longer practlced. This
will keep clean and mellow surface at
very little cost Of labor. With this treat
ment nothing but the growing crop will at
any time be seen.

Zly's body for decent burial. We can't afford
to have 1t said that we left a comrade in
the open to become food for coyotes and
buzzards. Get move on you and saddle
the horses instantly. You, Sanders and
Brooks, remain here to guard the stuff; the
rest of US will skin back to Big Butte.n
In very short time the small body of de-
termined men, led by the intrepid McCor-
mick, we're on their way TO the scene Of the re-
cent ambush. Few words were uttered by
the party. All realized that the errand was a
sad one, and IN his heart each vowed ven.
geAnoe on the murderous Cheyenues But
not hostile was in sight when they reached
the summit or Big Butte. up which they
cautiously stole, in a manner worthy of
trained Indian fighters. Already the CO.
votes and birds Of prey had assembled for
the feast, some Of the latter that had
perohed on the carcass of Grizzly's horse
boldly continuing their ravenous banquet,
in defiance OF the appearance OF the res
cuers.
Paul was the first to stumble on the BODY
Of his late comrade, and it was the contem>
plation OF that MANNED figure, its griuning
teeth upturned toward the midday sun
that produced the shock which had SO
peculiar an effect upon his physique The
fiendish redskins had completely severed
the gray mustache, Of which Grizzly had
been SO proud, taking with it the entire
upper lip, thus exposing the teeth and
gums in all their hideous baroness In a
dozen other ways besides that of
scalping their victim they had
maltreated the defenseless dead, much
in the same manner In which the Door fell
lows in the Seventh cavalry were treated
on the Little Big Horn a few years later.
Small wonder that as Paul Mccormick
stood by the body of Grizzly. fascinated by
its horrible appearance, and thought how
narrowly he had escaped like fate. a
mighty revulsion OF nature took place in
his system, so that when he returned to
camp his raven locks had forever lost their
pristine hue and had suddenly changed to
the unnatural wilderness they have ever
since assumed.

DEADLY RATTLESNAKES as.
An Ariz oman Who Has no Faith in
the Whisky Cure.
From the Pomona (CaD Progress.

From the Pomona (CdI) Progress
"Out Of 1000 persons bitten by rattle
snakes" said E. D. Bourne of Palm Springs
TO us the other day, az am sure that not
fifty ever really recover. So far as 1 know,
aud l have posted myself thoroughly upon
the subject for over twenty years, on the
desert and in Arizona and Texas there is no
known cure for rattlesnake poison, in spite
Of the fact that many people have said that
they were cured by whisky. You may de-
pend on it that when a man says he was
cured Of a rattlesnake bite he is at least
laboring under a Misrepresentation of the
facts. There is a small snake similar to the
rattlesnake in appearance, whose poison is
not SO venomous, and negroes bitten by it
place lime upon the spot or else drink
enough whisky to counterfeit the poison.
Whisky, IL taken in a large quantity, goes
directly into the blood and counteracts the
poison of the snake. But the regular Ari-
IONA RATHER, from five to seven feet in
length, is deadly customer to meet. 1t

moment it is disturbed, and it can strike
an object almost twice as far distant as II

young plants will not bear it until a growth
Of several inches will permit the operation.
All these suggestions are intended TO ap-
ply during the first era in the life history Of
the weeds or when the passage OF the slant
ing teeth through the surface Of the soil
grinds the young and tender sprouts Of the
weeds to powder. After the young weeds
get above the ground an inch or two they
will not so readily yield; and 1t is here that
some farmers pronounce this broadcast
wedding failure. They have left the work
until it Is too late
The third chapter Is when the weeds have
been allowed TO have their own way and
are forming and ripening full crop Of
seeds for another year. The fourth chapter
is the scattering Of the ripened seeds and
allowing them all the advantages OF free
termination.
The preceding remarks apply to annusls.
which are raised from seed each year. The
number is legion, and the only economical
way 30 treat and suppress them is by the
wholesale way which we have prescribed.
Perennial weeds, like quack grass, Canada
thistles, toad fax, and ox-eye daisy, some
Of which chiefly intest grass fields. while
others hold fast under cultivation, require
a very different treatment, and under a
good rotation are destroyed or held in check
by dense clover and grass. Others are de-
stroyed by blowing often enough and deep
enough to exclude every struggling plant
from the benefit of air and light.
