Christ's Promises.

If we cannot rest ourselves on divine
promises we may perhaps find the reason
in the defective character of our
obedience. Christ's promises are made
to the obedient. ''If We abide in lDe and
my words abide in you, we shall ask
what ye will and it shall be done unto
YOU" 1t is as we strive to follow Christ's
will that we shall find the peace which
passeth all understanding. christian

Leaf ssset of Timothy.

This disease forms black smutty lines
in the leaves of timothy and other grass

the soil well, transferring the crops 10

badly and exercising care with respect

Thirty plats were devoted last season

close to the plants without disturbing

under similar treatment, in both series,
is noted in the report OF results. But
what is still more interesting is that the
highest yields attained in both series,
when cultivated once in two weeks ard
when cultivated four times during the
season, is the result of what is practi-
cally the same amount of cultivation.

AtBURN. ". Y, Oct 2i-Oliver Curtis
Perry, the famous bank robher and des-
perado, escaped from his cell in the prison
here Saturday night, but his term OF lib
erty was short. He was captured inside
the prison walls at o'clock on Sunday
morning. and the only result Of his despcr-
ate attempt to escape was to make his con-
dition more miserable
After escaping from the wing in which
his cell was located Perry boldly crossed
the prison yard and hid in the basement of
the broom shop, where Convict johnson
was killed by fellow prisoner only few
weeks ago
When the night had sufficiently advanced
or the darkness to shield his movements
Perry tried TO gain access 70 the broom
ihop. IL was closely guarded, however, and
ne next proceeded TO the marble shop. Here
gain he was frustrated in his attempt to
sain admittance as the guards were on the
llert and his efforts attracted their atten-
zion.
Perry started to run as soon as he found
hat he had been discovered. lie went di-
,ectly TO the collar shop, where there was a
.arge number of knives, his idea seeming to
As he n0ared the collar shop he was seen
by Keeper Iunis, who stood in the shadow
Of the building. When within ten feet of
the guard Perry was challenged and or
dered to halt He did not obey, and the
guard fred a shot from his rifle over the
convict's head
This had no effect upon Perry other
than TO change the course in which he was
running and TO increase his speed. His
change Of direction was fatal, however, as
ne passed within reach of Keeper Smith
who, without waiting TO challenge, struck
aim over the head with his heavy night
stick, breaking the stick
Perry was stretched unconscious mt the
keepers feet, the blood flowing freely from
deep wound. He was taken to a dun
geon, where he will be confined some
time without even a board to rest upon.
IL is reported that after his capture Perry
told Warden Durston that IL was not liberty
he sought, but an opportunity to stick a
knife into him. He has conceived a deep
hatred for the warden during his long con-
dnement in the screen cell
To dig through the wall of his cell Perry
used the iron leg of his bedstead, which he
had managed TO loosen from its fastening
After the desperado had been safely locked
in dungeon the extra guards were re-
lieved, and Warden Durston assembled
them in the keepers hall. He then warned
them not to discuss the matter of Perry s
escape and capture in public.
1t is reported that Perry was very seri-
Dusly hurt by Keeper Smiths blow and
