TO PREyEST SMUT IN OATS.

Sleeping seed oats III hot water is
method by which the greater portion of
the loss from smut may be prevented and
is the result OF last year s investigation at
the Ohio Experiment. Station. Briefly,
the meth od is as follows. Have two
vessels, in one OF which the water is
warmed to about 800 degrees and in the
other kept as near 135 degrees rs posi-
bic. Have basket Of wire netting or
loose spl,nts covered with cloth, of the
right slze, to be put IN the cold water
bath aud in this im net>c tnc- seed in the
cooler bath, keeping it there and stirring
around until all the grains are warn
then lift ont and plunge in hot bath,
where it shoald remain from eight to ten
minutes, bciag stirred all the time Then
remove it and dip into cold water or
spread the grain out anl throw cold
water over it, letting 1t dry sufficiently
for sowing. The effectiveness OF this
method depends on having the water ho:
enough 20 destroy the smut germs which
! adhere to the outside Of the oats. but no,
SO hot as to destroy the oat germs Two
vessels are used because the water IN tn
warmer one would I've cooled too muc,
if the grain were placed in it immedi
ately, or it would have to be heated s.
warm as to destroy the vitality of tn
seed. New York Observer.

A HEAVY LOSS.
GREATEST EIaE IN 1AsvraAs IN YEARS

| GhEAIESG : lhE IN GASV EGAS IN EAR
Tha heaviest fire Las Vegas has
had FIR years start d this afternoon
between 3 a-d 4 u'closk in the ear
of j. II. Stearno' grocery. Tha fire
last winter part y b irnf d out the ar
of the goc ry, and ths fire this at
ternoon started in this unoccup ell
part. How it rigina,ed is not known,
but it must have been started by an
incendiary, as there was no fire in or
around the store. The alarm was
given Immediately, but by the time
the Hose company arrived the fire
had got a good headway and when
the hose was attached there was no
pressure in the water pipes and the
company were unable to do much.
The most that could be done under
the circumstances was to keep the
fire from spreading. This the com.
pany succeeded in doing very fairly,
but while the fire here was at it's
height another one broke out
either in the old Optic
block or the old livery stable adjoin-
ing. AS the second fire was a full
block away, it hardly seems probable e
that it could have caught from sparks
from the Stearn's fire and not have
set some of the frame houses between
the two.
The fire in the Optic block was
soon under such headway that it was
found to be impossible to control it
and all efforts were made to get out
all the furniture, and the fire spread
too fast and it had to be given up.
The fire next spread to the east and
burned down to the corner of Doug
las and Railroad avenues, taking in
Phil Nelson's residence, several resi-
1ences east of his, Rogers'blacksmith
shop, and the residence of Mr.. Pierce
and the iron-clad building occupied
by the Browne q Manzanares Co.
boys.
South of the block and the stable
t took III five frame buildings, and
was finally stopped in the middle of
he block. AT one time it looked
very much as though the Central ho-
el and the San Miguel bank, Dun
ANS livery stable, and B. & MS log
and the balance of the
block between Stearns' and the old
Optic block would all go, but by
lard work they were all saved.
The loss is hard to estimate, but
,annot be less than $4,000 or $780,
100, but we are unable to get the
lmount today. The Stearns stock
was insured as well as the building,
which belongs to Mr.. Rathbun. The
Optic block was valued at $4,000
md had only 81 900 insurance, s4,-
100 more having expired only few
lays ago. The furniture in the
was owned by Mr.. Stude-
,aker, and there was no insurance.

AGNES HUNTINGTON's LOVE.


A Philadelphia Lawyers Narrow Escape
From Breach of Promise SUIT.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2s.-[Spscial J.
The announcement in to-day's newspapers
that Agnes Huntington, the sweet-faced
American actress. is engaged to be married
to Paul D. Cravath, New York lawyer
and member of the firm Of
Cravath & Houston, brought a sigh
of relief from wel-known member OF
the Philadelphia bar, also a millionaire.
While in this city, capturing hearts and
ducats by her charming impersonation OF
Paul Jones, Miss Huntington met II. La
Barre Jayne, well-known and highly re-
spected lawyer, and son of the late DR..
Jayne.
Mr. Jayne's acquaintanceship with Miss
Huntington filled him with the greatest re-
spect and admiration for her womsnly
qualities Their relationship became OF the
most friendly character, but nothing more.
Miss Huntington. however, evidently took
different view of the matter, and
when, in the natural course of events, Mr.
Jayne's attentions ceased, she felt ag-
grieved and protessed to believe that the
Philadelphia lawyer had been guilty of
violation of faith. Accordingly she placed
her complaint in the hands of her counsel,
ex-Judge Dittephoeffer, of New York, with
instructions to Institute suit tor breach OF
promise of marriage
The announcement of Miss Huntington's
engagement of marriage is tantamount to
notice that she has abandoned the contem-
plated suit

DEPEW'S SIZE-UP OF GROVER.

He Thinks the Ex-President a Man OF
Firmness and Egotism.
NEW HAVEN, CONN, Oct 2S.-Yale
University, particularly that part of its
undergraduate forces which advocates the
doctrines of the Republican party, tonight
testified to its regard for distinguished
graduate in the person of DR.. Chauncey M.
Depew, who was the principal speaker at a
Republican rally here. The doctor said
that he knew Mr.. Cleveland when very few
outside of Erie county did. He knew he
was man of directness of purpose-and
egotism. He admired him, however, not
for his discretion of wisdom, but because
of his determination to have the right of
way, and If necessary, to die fghting-as
he did in 1888.
There was one thing about Mr.. Harrison,
the speaker said, that was in opposition to
the common view of Grover Cleveland-he
did not deem himself a bigger man than
his party. He was a simple, patriotic
representative of the grandest party in the
history of this country.

By Woman Who Always Conducts Her
Own Law Cases in Person.
LONDON, Oct. 2S.-Mrs. Weldon, wko
has gained considerable notoriety through
her law suits against M. Gounod, her hus-
band, and a number of other persons, in
which suits she always conducted her own
case, has commenced an action in the
French courts against Dutch officer named
Nauendorf, who claims to be the heir to
the French throne through Louis, Charles
and Philip de Bourbon.
Nauendorf is the most celebrated of those
who pretend to be the Dauphin who disap-
peared at the time OF the Revolution. Mrs.
Weldon met Nauendorff at spirituaiistic
seance and lent him 9134 on q revelation
made by spirit that he was the parsonage
he pretended to be. Nauendorff said he
wanted the money to buy family documents
by which he could prove his claims. AS
he has not produced the documents, Mrs.
Weldon has sued him to recover the money
she loaned him.
