TRUE FACTS OF THE CASE.
IN Attack Upon an American Com
sulate Investigated,

An Attack Upon an American Con.
sulate Investigated,
NEW YORK, April 9.-The HerGIdS
Valparaiso correspondent says: In ODE
dlence to instructions 1 have made inves-
Ugatlon into the report that an American
consulate in Peru had been attacked by
mob, for which an apology had been de-
manded by the United States Govern
ment. 1 have not been able to find that
any consulate in Peru was invaded, but
the incidents connected with the reported
sacking led me to believe that the outrage
took place in La Paz, Bolivia.
This row occurred on March 9th. A
party of students who were en- route to
the Chicago Fair, attended the funeral of
Senior Cazardla, a Chilean merchant of
La PaZ. The funeral services were held
in the Masonic Temple. This enraged
the anti-Masonic populsce, who attacked
the building, and the mob set the build
ing on fire and it was burned to the
ground. During the riot seven persons
were injured. There was 20 attack upon
nor demonstration of any kind against
the American consulate.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
NEW YORK, April 9.-The HerdIPS
Lima correspondent says the wounding
of a consular agent of the United States,
which Minister Hicks reported to the
Washington Government, occurred at
Molendo, Peru, on March 25th. The
trouble grew out of an anti-Masonic
demonstration which was recently made
in Peru. Masonic rites were being OBJ
served at a lodgeroom. During the cere-
monies the mob attacked the building,
having driven out the Masons. They
sacked the lodgeroom and burned the
building. The furniture and musical in
struments were removed to the street,
piled lin heaped and burned. A few
shots were fired during the melee, one of
which wounded the American consular
agent, Emilio De Cazorta, in the leg. 1t
is said the riots were caused by the action
of the Masons in ignoring an edict against
their ceremonies, which was issued by
the Roman Catholic Bishop of Arequipa.
Reports from Molendo say it is quiet
there now.

DUROc-IERsEy SWINE.
Origin OF the Name and Characteristics
OF the Breed


The Duroe- Jersey like several other ex-
cellent bree ds OF swine, is a native Amer
lean production. and like me Others, it is
the result of careful and skilful breeding
and selection. They are sometimes called
the America Tamworths, but this is
hard y just to them, Tor American breed
ers, VINO have imported Tamworths, have
found them less satisfactory than the
Duroc- Jersey which they resemble in
color and some other points.
Red hogs have been reared and fattened
in some parts OF New Jersey for at least
seventy-five years. The principal point
bred FOR was size, and enormous we gifts
were sometimes attained, whole filters
being made to average zoo or 500 pounds
at eighteen months. Mr.. Joseph B.
Lyman, an accomp shed agricultural
writer and editor, was the first to apply
the term Jersey Red to these large, vigor-
Gus, but rather heavy boned animals.
Meantime, however, much finer type of
red hog became quite prevalent in East
ern New York and the adjoining parts of
Vermont. A prominent farmer of
Serato a county, MIR. Isaac Trink, bought
some fine red pigs from the owner Of the
celebrated thorough bred horse Duroc,
to the horse.
For years the Jersey Reds and the Du-
roes were bred without much care, and
the names were applied somewhat indis-
Grim nately. But, about ten years ago,
the breeders OF red swine saw the advisa-
bility OF coming together. A meeting
was held at Elkhorn, Wis, June l, 1883,
at which steps were taken leading to a
full ryaf If ba Tlnran- IerratF
Swine Breeders Association.
The Duroc-J Jersey breed may be de-
scribed in a general way as symmetrical
hardy, prolific, easily reared. and good
"rustlers.n The standard qualifications
adopted by the association, embrace the
following: Head small in proportion to
size of body; .,e between the eyes; face
nicely dished ! d tapering well down to
nose; surface smooth and even;
eyes lively, bright and PROMINENT;
ears moderately thin, pointing for
ward, downward and slightly out
ward. carrying slight curve. Neck !
short, thick and very deep; slightly |
arching. Jowl broad, full and neat, car
rying fullncss back to point of shoulders |
and on line with breast bone. Shoulders |
moderately broad, very deep and full, not |
large, very deep, filling full behind Shout
ders. Back medium in breadth, straight |
or slightly arching, carrying even width |
from shoulders to ham. Sides very deep; |
medium length. and carry ng out full
down to line of belly. Hams broad, full
and well down to hook; legs medium in
size and length, straight, nicely tapering, |
wide apart, and well set under body:
pasterns strong and short; Ieet short,
firm and tough.
Males. two years old and over, should
weigh 600 pounds, sows same age and
condition 500 pounds; boars and sows
from six to Twelve months old, $50 to $50
pounds George A. Martin, in American

A legal sui, of considerable interest
in Caledonia county, and one which
has been before the supreme courts sew
eral times. " i settled at St.Johnsbury,
Tuesday. The case was that of Ste
venson against Hugh Cummings es-
tate. Both parties reside in Barnet.
The suit was brought to recover on a
note for $4,000 alleged TO have been
given by Cunning sometime before his
death, under peculiar circumstance.
The defence claimed fraud and chang
ing the date of the face of the note.
and the case was stubbornly contested,
"A large number of witnesses being ex-
amined at two different trials. A ver-
diet was given for defendant, and the
case was pending once more in the
supreme court. The plaintiff now set
ties by paying all the taxable costs up
to date and takes out Of court a suit
that has kept Barnet stirred up for
three years past.

In the case Of State VS.. O'Neil, which
has Just been continued in the SUI
preme Court at Montpelier until the
January term. the defendants coun-
sci, joel G. Baker OF Rutland, asks
the court TO sci aside the verdict, ON
the ground that the punishment was
unusual and severe and therefore I'M
constitutional. The verdict in this
case was a fine of about $4,000 and
Imprisonment IN the Workhouse for
something like 1000 days. Counsel
also takes issue on the fact that 400
offences were included in one indict-
mcnt. This now famous ease was
tried in the Rutland County Court
about 10 years ago, and grew out Of
the defendants sending liquor by ex-
press TO persons IN Rutland, G. @. d..
from Whitehall, ana was afterward
carried to the state supreme Court
and to the supreme Court of the
United States. II is believed that if the
counsel for O'Ncil be successful in his
contention, the case will be eventually
carried TO the United States Supreme
Court on the question as to the validi-
ty OF the prohibtory law in Vermont.

ropes Ska inch oak or other hard wood
scantling feet long with two pins in

each other. About eight inches from
each end OF this square timber round off
a space about three inches long on which
place two iron rings. To the rings attach
iron hooks or stay chains. After the
animal is killed and hind legs are
skinned, insert the hooks in the large
tendon above the hook joint.
Two men, one at each end OF the gam
BILE, can easily lift the carcass, either
raising it on the ground at once or a short
distance at time. 1t can be secured at
any hight by means OF the rope A, which
IL arranged with a series of loops. These
are slipped over the turning pins or
handles and thus prevent unwinding.
As the skinning proceeds the men will
have to stand on barrels or some other
elevation to enable them to swing the
carcass clear OF the FOUND. This appsra-
tus can be used for lifting hogs, sheep,
etc, but need not be made so strong nor
30 tall. The whole thing isentirely home
made and easily constructed. II no tree

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot reael
the diseased portions of the ear. There is onl,
one way to cure deafness and that is by con
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucous lining Of
the hustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed, you have rumbling sound or imper-
iect hearing. and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the inham-
nation can be taken out and this tube restored
TO its normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are
caused by cataIrh which is nothing but an in

better work in butter making on the
farm there is still considerable skill re-

working the churn. These troubles are
almost entirely eliminated by the butter
making machines because they produce
the finished article ready for marketing,
and in the best possible condition. The
farmer should have all the proht of his
