The committee OF the Methodist general
conference on Chinese exclusion split on their
report
Judge Lawrence Of Ohio offered the majority
report, which recommended that a. the Presi-
dent had for good reasons signed the bull the
matter be filed and nothing more be done.
DIR. Leonard denounced the President and
Congress and said the Chinese had the same
right here as other foreigners.
DIR. Edwards of Chicago said that 1t was q
political measure. It Was rushed through and
signed solely for political effect He moved to
refer il TO the committee on missions.
DIR. Payne Of Cincinnati believed the con-
ference should show that il does not approve
such political measure and moved to send
the matter to the church committee. He was
wildly applauded.
DIR. Buckley denounced all reference to poll
tics. 49,

THE OVERHEAD WIRE TO GO.

Mr.. GribbIe, commenting upon the subject
Says:
The interest in the conduit system is on the
increase in this country. The overhead WIRE
which has been the pioneer and stepping stone
of electrical railway construction, will soon
have had its day. Already the public yer let
is frequently in favor OF the survival of the log
trot horse car rather than the Introduction Of
dangerous and unsightly overhead construc-
ton. The storage battery labors under in
herent difficulties Of construction and opera
ton. Hitherto the conduit has not been a sue
cess in America and is scarcely out of its tenta-
tive stages elsewhere, bnt its difficulties are
not of the same nature as those OF the storage
battery. They are primarily mechanical and
secondarily electrical, whereas those Of the
storage battery are primarily electrical and
secondarily mechanical

An uncznectcd .NYnter Scene. '

The Installment Heights Amateur Dramatic society recently introduced a striking bit of realism into their skill ful rendition of Engaged and tilted"
 It will be remembered that when the heroine faints and falls gracefully upon the stage the awkward comic servant is required to seize large pitcher from a small table standing near R. 3 E. and boldly invert it over the prostrate lady exclaiming as she does so: "Oh, heav- ems! There'snot a dropav wather in the placer
 This is a highly humorous effect in its way, but its side splitting features were greatly intensified the other evening when, through some oversight, the pitcher was half full of water when it was placed on the table.
 The proper cue was given. The comic servant grabbed the pitcher and fairly deluged the unexpectant heroine. She sputtered and gasped for breath, and waved her arms wildly in the air, and utterly forgot to wait for the hero's ar rival before recovering from her faint. '"

 No other article of food gives such satisfactory results. It is, however, ex- pensive in large cities, and difficult to get fresh and sweet. On a farm, how ever, it can be had in its sweetness, and it can be freely used. Whipped, it can be served in dozens of ways, with fresh or stewed fruits, as an accompaniment to cake, puddings, and the like, while cream can be drunk nearly as freely as milk. For use in whipping it should be thick and sweet, while for drinking it can be used after the milk has stood. at the most, but a few hours over night. - Jenness Miller's Magazine.

entrance to tne yard, At the street end was a door, in the bottom of which was cut hole about three inches square Hanging over the little hole was a flap of wood suspended from piece of leather Two windows lit up the inte- rior of the shed. On one side was Q raised bunk, where the watchman sleeps, and on the other, under the windows, was long shelf. Coils of rope, shovels, picl axes, tools, odds and ends of iron, pulleys and blocks, lanterns and empty boxes Uttered mp the rest of the interior. Upon the bunk, shelf and floor and in hooks and corners the cats were mak- ing themselves perfectly at home. The watchman picked up small piece of meat from closet and began to chop it up. Instantly the cats were all atten- ton and watched him intently. When he threw down what he had cut each cat picked up piece and took it off to a corner to eat it. There was no scram- bling or fighting save among the kittens.

You mustn't overfeed them. l don't believe in giving them milk; it's too heating. A little meat once day is all they need. They catch rats and mice enough to keep them from being hungry.

 It was such a whistle as the Pied Piper of Hamlin may have given when he called the rats from the famous old city to a watery grave in the river Weser. But instead of rats there came from a little shanty in Alderman Duffy's coal yard at the foot of East Twenty street the queerest colony of cats to be found perhaps in Christendom. They gathered about the watchman of the yard, Charles Melville, a short thick set man with bristling brown mustache, who walked with slight limp and is familiarity known as "Doc." because of his veterinary skill. in answer to his whistle,
 "Great family, ain't it?" said the watchman after a moments pause, dur ing which he counted them to see if the eats were allthere. "Ain't another like it in the city. The black ones Mig. He's 3 years old, and the most intelligent. Larry, the brindle, is the same age, and is the biggest of the lot. That black and white small sized cat is Cinders. Klinkers, over there, is black and white too. She's the dead spit of her mother, is Cinders. Most people can't tell them apart. That staid looking old woman over there Is Minnie.

 Nothing today" he said sharply. "Trot back; the gentleman has seen you"
 The twenty-three cats were for mo- ment irresolute. Then they blinked their eyes as if to wipe away the tears, and turned about and went with droop- ing tails and bent heads into the shanty whence they came.

Weeds Among Potatoes.

Early neglect of weeds bring cer-
tain retribution to the potato-grower
when he comes to harvest his mixed
crop. After doing him all the dam
age possible, while it was growing,
the weed has still to be uproot-
ed from the potato hill, and always
at much greater expenditure of labor
than would have been needed to
destroy the weed before it had done
any appreciable injury. 1t is rather
paradoxical, but like other paradoxes,
it is true that it requires less labor
including the whole season, to keep
potato field clear of weeds than to
neglect it. This is still more true in
the amount of labor requireds to grow
a bushel or hundred bushels of pota-
toes.-American Cultivator.
