The recent celebration OF the Izaak Walton ter
centenary has recalled among many facts one
which goes to show that he was uncommony
sturdy royalist. 1t he who saved the exiled
Charles lis Collar Of the Garter. and he did 1t in
this fashion, Colonel Blaque remained at Mr. Bar
lows house at Blore Pipe, in Staffordshire, where
with Mr. Barlow's privity and advice. he hid His
Msjesty's George under n heap of dust and chips,
whence 1t conveyed through the trusty hands
of Mr.. Robert Miiward of Stafford. TO Mr.. Izaak
Walton, who conveyed 1t to London to Colonel
BlaQue, then in the Tower. whence escaping, not
long after he carried it with him beyond seas
and restored II to His Majesty's own hands"
The Czarevitch is said have well developed
literary tastes. The long descriptive letters which
he has sent home during his travels have been
highly praised.

while each comprises rich farming
land. Colville reservation in Wash
ington state will probably be opened
to settlement early next yerr. This
contains about 5000, 900 acres.
POSSIBLE TROUBLE IN NICARAGUA
. Although without information on the
subject, officials of the government are
inclined to the belief that trouble of
some kind Is breaking out in Mica
ragua. They base the belief on the
fact that telegraph communication
with that country has been broken OFF
and all attempts at reaching United
States representation have been with
out avail. With view to being pre-
pared for any trouble the navy de-
partment has decided to send the
cruiser Detroit, now at Norfolk navy
yards, to Nicaragua as soon as she lie
prepared for sea.

Caught in the Tolls

Of that lurking foe, chills and fever
we often struggle vainly to free our
selves from its clutch. Palliatives
there are without number, but If you
want real remedy, as OF course you
do if afflicted with this abomnible
malady, h asten to procure and per
sistently use Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. If you follow this suggestion
permanent restoration to health will
you. Every form OF malarial
disease is permanently eradicated by
the Bitters, which is likewise a relia-
BILE safeguard against mala0ies of this
type. Not alone on this continent
but throughout the tropics it is justly
regarded as a complete antidote to
miasma poison in air or water. No
less effective is it for disorders of the
stomach, liver and bowels, rheuma
tism, kidney complaints and nervous
ness. No one sojourniDg in a malarial
region or who is subjected to outdoor
exposure in rough weather or to ex-
cessive mental or physical strain
should be without this fine defensive
tonic

Troublesome Italian Coal Miners.

- PITTsBURG, Sept: 10.-One hundred
italian coal miners employed in the
Bradlin mines, Cherry valley, we've
discharged yesterday on account of de-
preston in the coal trade. The &C.
ton was received with indignation,
and those who were disposed have or
ganized for the purpose of preventing
the others from working. This after
noon they appeared on the streets
armed and openly threatened to shoot
down the first man who attempted to
enter the mines tomorrow. They have
the roads leading to the mines pa
trolled and appear determined to carry
their threats into execution. Mr..
Bradlin fears serious trouble unless
force is used to prevent it and will
appeal to the sherifffor protection.

Posted.

New corners to Texas seldom fail to
notice and ask the meaning OF the
word posted" which is often seen
embellishing the gate posts OF su
burban farms. The reply they receive
depends upon whether the person in
terrogated is farmer or a city sports
man." If the former the queerest will
be informed that "posted" is a word
selected by our lawmakers co convey
the idea that hunting or trespassing is
not allowed on the land on which the
sign appears, and that such acts are
Unlawful. If the latter, the inquirer
will probably be told that the word
means that the owner of the land is a
mean, stingy, no account rascal, that
oueht to be shot like the rabbits and
quail he so meanly prevents sports
mem from acquiring on his land. Inc
first definition is the correct one, ana
it is seldom that land is posted with
out urgent reason. There may be a
few cross.grained old land owners VINO
''post' their lands for pure

grade up the remainder of the flock by
using the thoroughbred sire on the
common sheep. In this way in few
years a fine flock may be secured.
Make mutton the primary object, and
at the same time strive to put as much
wool on the back of the sheep as pos
sible, remembering that the foods
which produce the most and best NUT
ton also produce the best wool. The best
foods are early cut hay, brewers
grains, ground oats, wheat bran,
wheat middlings and Others of like
character. Give the sheep the best of
care and warm quarters, as no other
farm animal so keenly feels the cold
and storm. Make the barns light and
well ventilated and have water and
salt free of access.

The ADVICE is Good.

The Texas Live Stock Journal gives
farmers advice that if followed will
put money in their pockets. 1t says:
There is a place on every farm for a
few sheep, especially on the billy ones
which are difficult to cultivate. The
dairy farmer should test his cows, sell
the non-paying ones and replace them
with sheep. 1t will cost no more to
keep eight sheep than one COW, and
at the average of the cows of the state
as a basis the sheep will be found more
profitable. If you are going to put a
flock of sheep upon the farm begin
slowly and cautiously. Buy two or
three full bred ewes and thorough :
bred sire as a nucleus. Decide upon
the breed you wish to keep, then

Sunday at the Fair,

CHICAGO, Sept. l0.-Yesterday there
were 299,O36 paid admissions to the
fair. There was a decided increase in
the attendance today. Heretofore the
number of people on Sunday has not
exceeded 10000, but today the num-
Der far exceeded this figure. The art
building was thrown open and here a
large number of those in attendance
spent the afternoon. Midway claimed
its share of patronage, and between
the two places the larger portion of
the crowd spent an ENJOYABLE day.

cussedness and love of cur
failing the pleasures of others.
but they form very feeble minority.
Farmers and stockmen within easy
reach of cities have been forced, n
self defense, to post their land. The
mischief done by city ''sportsmen" in
their wild, headlong rush for game
whether it be deer, wild turkey,
quail. tieldlark or tomtit, is more than
they have time or inclination to calcu-
late. Gates are left open and fences
displaced, allowing stock to escape
from pastures or encroach on field
crops; horses and cattle are sometimes
killed and injured by stray shots fired
by incapable hands. The land and
growing crops are greatly injured by
being trodden drown, when unfit for
travel, or too tender to bear the hoof
OF some heavygated, but lightheadt d
city dude. These are common reasons
for farmers posting their farms, but
there is another equally potent,
though seldom advanced. 1t is quite
common occurrence for hunters
from the city to form "four in .handn
party and engage "a rig" from some
livery stable to carry them to the
happy hunting grounds and bring
home the trophies of the chase. In
this contrivauce they may be seen
meandering over pastures and culti-
waited fields, quite oblivious to the
state OF the soil or the character of the
crops, and with supreme contempt
for roads and turning rows. That is
enough to make the old, time worn.
weather-beaten farmer mad, but
when it is remembered that livery
teams are largely fed on johnson hay
he might be excused if he were little
madden. This is no mere suppositions
case. Many of our farms have been
lnnoculated with johnson in this way.
l write feelingly. Some years ago
some city sportsmen, to me unknown
and without "by your leave" drove
their livery team across my young oat
field and hitched it to a convenient
fence post. The crop was destroyed
at that point and in its place l got "a
good stand" of Johnson, which has
