the guard in the centre Of the forehead.
Jones then rushed at Spaulding. who ran to

When the alarm was given Jones could be
seen in the hills. He was striking into

Jules Ferry, the newly-electsd President
of the French Senate, died suddenly at
Paris a few days ago. The news Of his de-
mise was great shock, as few knew tina. he
had been i'll.
Jules Ferry was born at Saint Die, in the
Vosges on April s. 1882, and became q MEM
her of the bar in Paris in 1851. He was
prominent among the young lawyers who
offered constant opposition to Napoleon III.
and was condemned at the famous trial Of
the Thirteen in 1854 In 1869 Ferry was
elected to the Corps Legislatif and took his
seat among the members Of the Left. He
was one Of the few deputies who voted
against the declaration o. war against Prus-
sia. and was one Of the members Of the Gov
eminent of the National Defence in 1870.
After the resignation of Marshal McMahon
in 1879 President Grevy made NJ. Ferry
Minister Of Public Instruction. 1t was as
such that Ferry brought forward his
famous bill to keep the Jesuits from teach
ing or managing schools. In 1880 the Prime
Minister. NJ, De Freycinct, authorized an
insertion In Ferry's bill of the clause leveled
against the religious orders. This led to
the expulsion Of the Jesuits from France
and the resignation of three Cabinet Minis
ters. The Ministry was upset on September
1y. 1880. Ferry's ministry was upset by the
attacks upon the Tunis expedition, After
the fall OF Fallieres ministry Ferry once
more formed a Cabinet, whose principal
policy was the colonial expansion OF France.

when elected President OF the Senate.

RAISING PLANTS FROM SEEDS.

wonder how many luckless amateurs
will fail with their seeds again this year
and how many seedsmen will be uDjustly
blamed for such failuresa writes CORE
spondent. Many persons think 1t so
difficult to raise plants from seed that
they will not make even one effort to do
so; others have been so discouraged by
first failures that they are reluctant to
make second attempt. The pity OF it
is that most of them who would like to
raise flowers from the seed aad fail are
unable to purchase plants, and so are
compelled to do without the beautiful
flower evangels altogether.
The trouble with many beginners is
that they imagine seeds may be sowu in
any fashion, watered occasionally, and
success be assured; when they fail to
grow under such treatment the seller OF
them frequently gets the blame for it.
Nothing is more certain than if seeds are
not planted as they should be, they will
probably fail to grow. The proper treat
ment for coarse, large seeds will smother
the life out of fine ones. They are
something like little children, we must
study their natures aud treat them &C.
cordingly, and in this we may profit
greatly from the experience OF others,
instead of waiting impatlently for results
from our own haphazard knowledge.
The best soil for seeds is light, rich,
sandy loam; any garden soil will do if
thoroughly pulVerized, heated to destroy
