An Engineers Premonition.

A telegraph operator on one of the
single-track roads leading out of Pitts
burg had an experience last week that
will last him a lifetime. The young man
became careless, as despatchers some
times will, and he gave orders for a
freight and passenger train, moving in
opposite directions, to go to a certain
station. When the trains had started,
the operator suddenly remembered that
they couldn't reach the place without a
collision. 1t was too late to counter
mand the order, and in his agony the
perspiration ran down over his face. In
describing his feelings after ward, he said
he lived years in the few short minutes,
which would decide the fate of the
trains. He was startled and relieved by
seeing the engineer of the freig:5 walk
into the tower. The engineer lad re-
ceived his orders, but when he reached
a switch he had premonltion there was
something wrong, and he turned in on
the side track. His train was scarcely
out of the way when the express thun-
dered by.
The next day the operator went to the
superintendent of the road, and told him
what had happened, at the same time
handing in mis- resignation. The m: lager
looked at him for a moment, and then
said $50 back to your work, my boy.
This experience has been a lesson for
YOU. don't think it will occur il the
future"
The telegrapher, in telling the story,
remarked that another such fright would
drive him crazy.-Pttts6Ay Dispatch.

In the Sierra wilderness far to the
southwark of the famous Yosemite
Valley, there is yet grander valley
Of the same kind. 1t is situated on
the South Fork Of Kings River, above
the most extensive groves and. forests
of the giant seQu0ia. and beneath the
shadows of the highest mountains in
the range, where the canyons arc
deepest and the snow-laden peaks are
crowded most closely together. 1t is
called the Big Kings River Canyon,
or Kings River Yosemite, and is
reached by way of Nisalia, the nearest
point on the Southern Pacific Rail
road, from which the distance is
about fOrty-tiVe miles, or by the kCar-
sarge Pass from the east side Of the
range. 1t is about ten miles long,
half mile wide, and the
stupendous rocks Of purplish gray
granite that forms the walls are from
$500 to 5000 feet in height, while
the depth of the valley below the
general surface Of the mountain mass
from which it has been carved is con-
siderably more than a mile. Thus it
appears that this new Yosemite is
longer and deeper, and lies imbedded
in grander mountains than the we'll
known Yosemite Of the MERGED.
Their general characters, however,
are wonderfully alike, and they bear
the same relationship to the foun-
tains Of the ancient glaciers above
them.

NIGHT TEMPERATURE FOR PLANTS.

The constantly increasing use of green
houses IN the cultivation of plants makes
knowledge of the best methods for
their management of general Importance.
In growing plants under natural con-
ditions out-of- doors it is well known
that they undergo wide variations of
temperature in the changes from day to
night. 1t is not, however, as generally
known that such changes in temperature
are equally necessary for successful plant
growing in glass structures where arti-
fetal heat is used. On this subject Mr..
Saunders, the Superintendent of gardens
and grounds at Washington, has said
that one of the most prevalent and in
furious errors in the management of green
houses and other plant houses is that of
keeping the temperature too high during
the night. To maintain as high a degree
of heat during the darkness as during
the light is practice opposed both to
science and the results of experience.
1t is said that plants grown in a nearly
uniform temperature under glass seldom
ripen or mature their wood in thorough
manner; the buds are immature and make
feeble growth, ana the Who'll e plant con-
tracts delicate habit of constitution
which renders it incapable of withstand
ing the slightest neglect without injury.
On the contrary, plants constantly sub
jected to a suitable lowering of night
temperature are more robust, have short
jointed and matured growths; flowers
not only expand more fully but remain
longer in perfection; fruits are better
colored and favored and more perfect in
every respect than those developed in an
atmosphere of uniform heat and moist
ure. Greenhouse plants require no heat
during the night further than to exclude
frosts.
Another injury consequent upon a
high night temperature during winter
arises from the extraction of moisture
from the atmosphere. To maintain an
inside temperature of even fifty degrees
when the external is near zero involves a
rapid generation of heat, and as the
capacity of air for taking moisture in
creases in proportion to its rise, a great
demand is made upon the plants and
everything in the house capable of CIV
ing up moisture. The quantity of water
thus carried off may be seen by the de-
position of ice on the inner surface Of
the glass after night of severe frost.
Ice one-tourth of an inch in thickness is
often found under these circumstances,
the result of condensation and freezing
of the water carried from the contained
moisture in che atmosphere and from the
surface of the plants. The parched and
unhealthy aspect of the plants subjected
to such treatment is sufficient evidence
against the propriety of the practice

FASHION NOTES,

Velvet ribbon is faV0rlte garnlture
for demi-toilets of various materials.
Many women have had their too short
seal jackets and coats heightened by
adding deep bands of curled black Per-
sian lamb tur or velvet beaver skins.
The Italian is the latest form of sleeve.
1t is like loose shirt sleeve to the ell
bow, where it is gathered into tight
fitting sleeve, which covers the rest of
the arm.
A new feature of the popular princesse
dresses is their bias back seams that give
the effect of bell skirt. This is a re-
turn to the old fashioned way of making
the princesse.
Swallow gray with magnolia white or
Indian red, palest doe color with dark
russell and Egyptian blue with pale sill
yer are combined in the handsomest
cloth gowns.
On cloth, Bedford cord or rough wool
dresses, very large buttons are used con-
spicuously, and those made in imitation
of old coins are in great demand for the
most expensive materials.
Tailors are making a speciality of
jaunty and stylish little bonnets mpe
worn with theatre gowns and capes of
cloth. Plain velvet is much used for
these little capotes, in a bright color
overlaid with lace.
Velvet and wool are combined in
some of the most tasteful winter gowns.
The velvet often forms a peasant waist,
which can be worn with various dresses,
or basque Of graceful shape, with skirt,
vest and sleeves of striped vigogne or
camel's hair.
Pingot, the famous Partisan designer
of costumes, makes black velvet coats of
the prevailing three-quarters length,
with fitted back, large pockets on the
sides and the straight fronts to turn back
and show facings of black guipure lace
wrought with gold.
Anew and delicate shade of raspberry
pink is called "salambo." This color
combined with Russian green is especi-
ally effective. A very beautiful brocade
recently seen at leading shop had a
beautiful flower design brocaded on a
ground shot with these two colors.
A Paris correspondent says many Co.'S
tunes are made complete for walking,
with an open jacket showing waistcoat
or chemsette or closed coat, generally
double breasted, and with double row
of rather large buttons. For these ribbed
and fancy cloths of all kinds are the ma
terials in vogue, and the greatest sim
plicity of cut.
Many fashionable dressmakers are in
sisting that serviceable cloth dresses be
cut to escape the floor all round for
street wear. Box plated backs bid fair
to be worn again, and the fashion of
trimming the gored seams of the skirts
is becoming more and more popular.
This is especially becoming to stout
figure, as 1t apparently gives greater
length.
A black velvet coat made in the new
style, either in close princesse shape or
with slashed basque, is a very valuable
acquisition to limited wardrobe, as it
can be made to do great service and is
always becoming. A black velvet coat
is handsome over a skirt of lowered
brocade, aud in this case a pretty ORA
perry OF crepe de chine that repeats th'
color of the flower brigntens and change
the front of the coat. A biz OF full
deep ruching of the crepe il the nee
and sleeves is added.

Facts About Rugs.

James D. Henry, traveller for a Phila
deiphia carpet house, in conversation
with reporter said: "The Eastern rug
wears forever. 1t is made by the most
tedious hand process. Every tuft of wool
Is tied fast to the warp of the rug, and
hence the ever varying fullness which
could never be turned out bya machine.
The wool cannot be torn from its place
as in machine made rug. The clips of
the famous American sheep are used in
it's manufacture. But these rugs are
unique in another respect. Absolutely
fast colors are not known outside the
Orient. The vegetable dye that is used
there will never fade, as will the aniline
dye. There are endless shades of color,
too, which are not produced outside the
domains of these rug makers. There is
one establishment in Milwaukee which
! follows this Eastern method of weaving,
but as to colorlng, rivalry ceases. The
richest Of Oriental rugs have been in use
for years. Representatives of the Con-
stantinople merchants who trade with
the West are sent travelling through the
barbarous Empires. Rugs that have been
trodden for years under the feet of Mo-
hammedan worshipers in the great
mosques, or perhaps for several decades
have decked a nobleman's harem, are
bought up, sometimes at an absurdly low
price, and carried away in horse or camel
trains. Some rugs are found which have
been made by the dainty hands of court
ladies, involving the labor of several
years; but the tendency Is for the own
e1s to hold on to them in hope OF rea!lz-
ing an enormous purchase price. 1t IS
not an unusual thing for Arab robbers to
attack party of rug merchants travel
ing with their valuable loads, and in the
fight rugs are rent and torn terribly, but
we sell them for all the higher price on
account of those cuts. Filthiness is no
name for these pieces of handiwork
when they reach the shipping point for
the West. Reek1ng with the dirt of
years they would shock the instinct of
the veriest scavenger on our shores. They
are thoroughly washed and then sent to
market. When they reach England Or
this country they generally have to be
given another securing before they can
be put up for sale. They are ola dozen
different classes, named after the prov
lnces where they were patterned-Bok-
nara, Anatatia, Kurdistan, Daghestan,
Persia, Smyrna, Agra, Aliahabad, BeIoo-
chistan and Chiraz, They can generally
be distinguished from one another by the
length of the nap, the general coloring
and design. All are the result of the
same patient work, and bring high
prices from lovers of the article the world
over. "-,St. Louis Star Sayings.

EARN AND GARDEN NOTES.

Use the curry-comb less, and the
brush more.
In order to have good, healthy, vigor-
Gus chickens it is necessary to have
strong, vigorous breeding fowls.
Neglected repairs to fences often re-
suit in creating breechy habit in the
live stock that are kept on farm.
Never undertake to treat an animal
whose disease you do not understand,
but secu~. competent veterinary sur
gcon.
One of the best crosses for common
hens, when it is desired to increase the
size. is to use Brahma or cochin
rooster.
Don't expect to see the effects of your
medicine as soon as it has been admin
istered, but wait proper time before re-
peating the dose.
The comic side of farming appears
when those complaining of hard times
leave their reapers and binders out to
take the weather.
The leaves in the pig-pen help to fat
ten hogs by keeping them warm and dry,
thus preventing loss of food by saving
tie warmth Of the body.
The quiet cow, the friendly hen, the
peaceful horse give the largest returns
with the least expense. Conquer every
thing on the farm, including the hired
man, by politeness and kindness.
Do not expect any breed to lay equally
we'll in the summer and in winter. II
you insist on good supply of eggs from
November till February, then select t
breed noted for the ability to lay in the
winter. Do not expect everything Of one
breed.
The raising of ducks is only in its in
fancy in this country. The time will
perhaps come when that fowl will be
raised as extensively as in China. Ont
of the best reasons for extending the
breeding of ducks is the fact that they
are less liable to disease than any other
breed of fowl:
Small sweet potatoes are superior te
corn for fattiug pigs, as they contain a
large proportion of starch and sugar. TIT
proper way to feed them is to drst boi
them, adding peck Of brand to each
bushel of potatoes. The refuse root
and all unstable portions are equal to tn
best fol iattenins purposes.

FOUR MONTANA BEARS FACED HER.

While John Chapman was in here from
his Wyoming ranch this week he told of
a thrilling experience his wife had re-
Gently with four silver tip bears, she
bear and three cubs. John was away
from home at the time.
After eating an early supper Mrs.
Chapman stepped outside the kitchen
door intending to place pan of milk in
an clubhouse. She had just closed the
door of the kitchen, when looking up
she was confronted by four bears, all up
on their lunches and within few feet Of
her. She screamed and rushed into the
house and told the hired man the cause
of her fright and assisted in finding the
cartridges for a rifle that stood handy,
and then sank into chair exhausted and
helpless, while the hired man made an
attack on the bears, killing the old one
and two of the cubs. When Mr.. Chap
man arrived he found his wife IN an
alarming condition, her nerves being at
such tension that he feared she would go
into Mysteries. That night she COM
planned of hearing the bear scratching
outside, aud finally, to satisfy her, John
got up, and, taking his gun, went to the
door, where, sure enough, was the re.
naming bear standing out in the cold
and whining and screaming for his dam.
The cub lit out for tAe brush when he
heard John coming, but in the morning
the dogs were turned loose on the trail,
and young bruin was gathered in to COM
plete the family.
The cubs were fully half-grown silver
tips, and averaged over $50 pounds each.
The she bear was a big one, as large as a
cow.-B!lliags (NontaIoa) Gazette.

TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
TO FARM AND GARDEN,
SOME POINTS ABOUT SHORT HORNS

SOME POINTS ABOUT SHORT HORNS.
There are many points to support the
claim that the short horn is emphatically
the farmers COW. Many experienced men
firmly believe that no other COW is so we'll
suited to all purposes, and despite the
outcry against the 'tgeneral purpose"
COW, that is after all what the great ma
iority of farmers want. Even for special
dairy purposes they are rarely excelled.
At the Bristol Dairy Show in England a
short horn took first prize, giving fifty
two pounds of milk per day at the test,
five months after coming in. At the
British Dairy Show held at London,
where there were two hundred and fifty
seven entries of all breeds, short horns
took first and second prizes. The British
agricultural Gazette says 'The short
horn is the best COW we have in Eng
land for dairy purposes The Michigan
Agricultural College says: "The short
hons are undoubtedly the best farmers
cow The Ontario Agricultural College
says: "For beef and milk there is moth
ing that can equal the short horns; nor
have they any equals for improving other
breeds" This last point should have
the most careful consideration. The
constant infusion of better blood in all
our herds, both for beef and dairy, is
the chief thing that we need, and we
should use those breeds which will most
impress their good points upon their
progeny. This prepotency of the short
horns is most marked.-Neu York o.

Remedies for UiDilt!ieria,

The late prevalence of diphtheria has
brought out many popular remedies.
One of these, which is frequently adopt
ed in Germany, is to close the room on
the first appearance of the disease in the
throat of the child. A tin cup is then
filled with equal parts of tar and turpen-
tine and held over the fire until the
fumes fill the room. This will cause the
little patient to expectorate copiously
and to expel the membranous matter
which is the source of the mischief.
The timely relief thus afforded is often
the means not only of obvlating the ne
cessity for medical aid but of SAVING the
life OF the sufferer Chicago Nea0s.
