Conficr with Strikers.

Special to the Statesman.
YoAKUM, Tex, Jan. 2G.-Last night
about y o'clock there rang out ten or
twelve shots, followed in five min
utes by as many more, fired in rapid
succession. AID investigation showed
that it was the result OF an encounter
between the guards of the railroad
and some of the strikers, in which
there was fortunately no one hurt.
One of the guards was today arrested
on the charge of discharging firearms
within the city limits. He was re-
leased on bond. Two Of the strikers
implicated are strongly suspected, but
they have disappeared.

The first glimpse of farmers
homestead gives us an index of the
character of the inmates. No matter
how plain the dwelling if it be adorned
with flowers, vines and blossomlng
shrubs, we know that it is the abode
of taste and refinement. Nor does
this necessitate any great expenditure
of either time or money.-Country
Gentleman.
Leave nothing to be done in the
spring that can be done before that
time. When spring opens work will
crowd upoa the farmer, and he may
find that time is too valuable to give
attention to many matters that are
important. Much of this delay and
annoyance may be avoided by keep
ing all work done up to time and hav-
ing everything ready when the hurry
begins.-Home and farm.
See that the kitchen garden is got
ready in good time. 1t is time that
cabbages and tomatoes were started
in beds or boxes and peas and radish
planted. Have the rows long enough
for horse cultivation and weeds can
easily be kept down. Cut Irish pOta-
toes into eye pieces some days before
planting and plant only early varie-
ties.
CASTOR BEANS.
In answer to queries about the cul-
ture of castor beans, we will say that
in preparation of soil and manner of
cultivation they agree very closely
" ith corn. The beans should not be
planted as early as corn, as the plant
is only half hardy in this latitude.
The distance given the plants varies
from 4.3 feet to 8 l-2 feet by twenty in
ches, according to strength of soil.
Gathering the beans requires prompt
attention at the right time
to prevent them from popping out and
wasting in the field. The field must
he gone over as often as necessary to
gather the ripened heads in time. %.
AS fast as gathered spread on a
clean yard or floor where the sun
shine on them, and they will soon
hull themselves. The tossing Of the
stems and hulls in removing them
will finish this part of the operation.
Gather the beans and clean by win
moving, sack and ship to nearest cas-
tor oil mill (Weatherford). A fair
yield is twenty or twenty-five bushels
per acre. The price averages $l.50 per
bushel.-TeXas Farm and Ranch.

withdrawn. The Chilean government
asks that the question of indemnity
for the Baltimore outrage be sub
mitted to some friendly power for ar
bitration, and if that is not satisfac-
tory for President Harrison to refer
the whole matter to the supreme court
of the United States. This knocks the
war scare into smithereens.
CHILE'S ANSWER RECEIVED.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The gov
ernment today received a long mes
sage from Egan, conveying an offer
on the part of Chile for settlement
of all existing difficulties with the
United States. This message confirms
the statement made in the exclusive
associated press dispatch received from
Santiago to the effect that Chile had
agreed to withdraw the note sent by
Malta and withdraw the request for
the recall of Egan and to submit
the Baltimore affair to arbitra-
tion to some neutral power or
Y" bhS NOOloiOh VI GA6 OulU6u olduGS
supreme court. Egan states the pro.
positions at greater length than the
press dispatch, but the exact addi-
tions cannot be ascertained. There is
reason to believe, however, that the
Chilean government has not only of
fered to withdraw the offensive note,
but ill addition offers to apologize for
it. 1t also agrees to the position
taken by the United States in regard
to the right of asylum and safe con-
duct of the refugees.
Egan's dispatch was submitted to
the cabinet at it's meeting today. The
entire question was discussed, and it
is understood difference of opinion
was developed as to the propriety of
accepting the offer without modifica-
tion as far as it related to the submis-
sion of the question of Chile's liability
for the attack ON the sailors of the
Baltimore to the arbitration of a
neutral nation or to a decision of the
supreme court. Without reaching
any decision the meetinga djourned.

The NIoqui Indians.

A hundred miles north of the Petrified forest and we'll into the edge of the Ari- zona desert are the seven strange and seldom visited Pueblo cities of Moqui. They all have wildly unpronounceable names, like Hualpi, A-hua-tu and Mish- ongop-avi, and all are built on thesum- mits of almost inaccessible mesas-- islands of solid rock, whose generally perpendicular cliff walls rise high from the surrounding plain. They are very remarkable towns in appearance, set upon dizzy sites, with quaint terraced houses of adobe, and queer little corrals for the animals in hooks and angles of the cliff, and giving far outlook across the browns and yellows and the spectral peaks of that weird plain. But they look not half so remarkable as they are
 The most remote from civilization of all the Puehlos, the least affected by the spanish influence which so wonderfully ruled over the enormous area of the southwest, and practically untouched by the later Saxon influence, the Indians of the Moqui towns retain almost entirely their wonderful customs of before the conquest. Their languages are different from those of any other of the Pueblos; and their mode of life-though to nasty glance the same-is in many ways un- like that of their brethren in New Mex ico.-Charles F. Lummis in St. Nicholas.

Civilization and Wilderness.

Upon the ,500 miles of the shore of Lake Superior there are living now less than 150,000 persons, and these are mainly in bustling cities like Duluth, Superior and Marquette, in industrial colonies like Calumet and Red Jacket, or in struggling little ports like Fort William and Port Arthur. Even there the wilderness and primeval conditions are face to face with the robust civiliza- tion which is shouldering it's way as cap ital is accustomed to do rather than as natural growth usually asserts itself. Not that it is not a wholly natural growth which we find at all points on the lake shore, for it is all in response tothe mex orable laws of supply and demand. Yet the communities there have sprung into being far apart from well settled regions in answer to these laws.
 Thus it happens that today one may ride in an electric street car to the start ing point for short walk to trout stream, or one may take the steam rail road and in an hour alight at forest station, breakfasting there, but enjoy ing for luncheon cut of the deer or a dish of the trout or the partridge which he has killed for the purpose. It is, so to say, a region wherein the wholesale fisherman with his steamboat disturbs the red man who is spearing a fish for supper, where the wolf blinks in the glare of the electric lamp, and where the patent stump puller and the beaver work side by side.-Julian Ralph in Harper's.

SMALL GARDEN TRUCK.

From the supposed afiluence of real estate agencies, insurance, or loafers on our street corners, it may be considered by some to De quite fall from such prominent social and financial heights to suggest truck farming as a means of livelihood, but THE REPUBLICAN not only suggests it, but earnestly urges it as one of the most profitable and cer- tainly honorable occupations that could engage the attention of many of our people who do not now have enough to do to keep away the bl ues.
 To illustrate the importance of this industry in Los Angeles, California, we may take the statement made by K. w. Wade, general manager of the Santa Fe interests in Southern California, that he has just placed an order a, eastern headquarters to send out 700 cars to handle the potato crop of Los Angeles, and the further statement that i,5OO cars of vegetables have been sent east from Los Angeles this season.

In fine Country store.

Some of tho snowbound passengers at one of the depots near Utica were tell ing stories the other day, and travel ing man was relating his experience in a country store in a small town in lief ferson county. He said he was there nearly the entire forenoon, and had oc- casion to note the peculiarities of the storekeeper, who carried general stock, but pretty small one. Every little while customer would come into the store and inquire for some article that the merchant did not happen to have in stock. For instance:
 Have you any dried beef, Mir. Cash drawery'
 No, we have no dried beef today, but we have some nice codfish. John, show this lady the codfish."
 Do you keep any such thing as wicks for those big, round lamp burnersY
 "We generally do, but happen to be out just now. We have some fine cot ton clotheslines, though. John, show the gentleman the clotheslines."
 My gals wanted me to bring them home some confectioner's sugar. Have you got any of it, Cashdrawer?'
 ''Sold the last ounce about an hour ago, Henry. We've got an excellent quality of toilet soap, though. John, show Mir. Adams the soap"
 Do you keep ready made flannel sbirtsg"
 Have had them all winter, and sold three to a lady yesterday, which cleaned the stock out. But we have large sup ply of overalls. John, show this lady the overalls. Utica Observer,

A SELF-MApE MAN.

When Horace Greeley was in his prime he was counted among the popu- lar lecturers of his time. He was the very least of orators, but the people were attracted by the meat and pith of his practical, common-sense, terse say ings. His pet lecture was on "Seli' made and School-made Mem" and in the treatment of thls subject he de- lighted to contrast such characters as Daniel Boone and Edward Everett, leaving the nearer to discover the deli cate intin,ation that the lecturer him self was triumphant example of auto matic construction.
 After having exalted the self-made above the school-made man, 1t was something of joke on Greeley that, in selecting Whitelaw Reid to become the head of the great metropolitan news paper he kad established, he should have bestowed deserving responsibil- ity on one who was both school-made and self-made. The fact is the school enabled Whitelaw Reid to make him self, SO that he was the embodiment of both tbe elements which Greeley had set in opposition. He was early thrown upon his own resources, and it was self reliance united to great energy and pluck that carried him through the Miami university, small institution in southern Ohio, which'has given to the country many prominent men, among whom are Professor Swing and Presl- dent Harrison. Equipped with a fair rudimentary education, Reid went straight forth to carve hIs own career. Under 20, he was stump speaker in Fremonts campaign of 1856; then school teacher, repaying his father for the expense of his college education, and saving small capital; then pro prietor of the Xenia NeWs, which gave him Republican leadership in central Ohio; afterwards correspondent at Col umbus of the Cincinnati Times, with a salary of $5 a week, when his brilliant articles brought him a similar connect ion with the Cleveland Herald at sl5 a week. The Cincinnati Gdzette now dis covere1 him and laid hold of his ser vices at SIS week. The next step in advance was to become city editor of the Gazette.
 On the breaking out of war White law Ried joined McClellan's staff as cor respondent and acquired wide fame for letters, extensively copied, over the sobriquet Agate"
 Personally, MT. Reid is over six feet tall, proportionately stout, and of com manding, rather striking appearance. His self-made success is not only a worthy object of youthful emulation, but furnishes a timely lesson to those who are continually harping on the one tion of people with money alone. Money indeed we must have, but we need men -nervy, thrifty, energetic men-more. Such men were all the far-famed Cali fornia millionaires. Such men will make money, but money cannot make such men. On the contrary, men who hug their money-bags, and are willing to apply their wealth to the develop ment of the country and it's industries, are of much less value to us than are those who have the talent, tact, in- dustry and sagacity to dig money from the soil and galvanize their surround ings into gold.

The curious custom of telling the bees" is observed in some parts of nearly every country in tho world. Those who observe the custom always go to the bee hives and tap gently on each one, then stoop and whisper under the cap or lid that Mary, Jane, Thomas or William is dead.
