Worcester, Mass, April 1l-Last Sunday
week the Catholic Armenians had al Easter
celebration and invited many Mohametans
and Greek Church friends. The Mohamet-
ans observed their spring festival yesterday
and asked their Catholic friends to partici-
pate. While the festivities were at their
height Domitt Jacobs. a Catholic Armenian,
cut cross with o pocket knift in a table in
the house Of George Dullowe, where one Of
the feasts was held. This precipitated a
fight which was adjourned to the street, and
soon a mob of over one hundred Asia ties
made things lively with stones and clubs,
while pistols and knives were also brought
into ploy. They fought for over an hour,
the neighboring hillside being covered with
spectators of adj nationalities Word finally
reached the police and nine officers We're
sent to the scene in a patrol wagon: Their
appearance scatteded the fighters. but the
police arrested sixteen of the belligerents,
including Jacobs. Warrants are out for
nine more. To-day in court four We're dis
charged. The others We're each fined. After
court was over the party went home and
the fight was renewed, but the police quelled
the row.

Swindlers Headed for the Northwest
Denver, Colo, Special, April 11.-Denver
has been worked by two smooth schemers.
They will try to work the people of Gin
cinnati, Chicago, New York, Omaha and
ST. Paul within the next few weeks Their
mode is Ia novel one. They have caught
bankers lawyers. merchants and people Of
every vocation in life. This is their second
visit to Denver. They are both Mexicans,
travelling under various aliases. They had
1000, 900 cigars shipped to-day consigned to
MOntezuma Bros, to each OF the following
cities: Cincinnati, Chicago, Omaha, st. Paul
and New York. Their plan Of campaign is
to take several boxes Of cigars around in an
old canvas bag and approach in very
secret manner, the leading business and pro-
fessiOnal men in each city, and inform their
victims that the cigars are clear Havana;
that they Struggled them over the Mexican
border duty free, and by the way OF
sacrifice they will sell them for $50 a
thousand. They have received as high as
$50 in some instances, but they will dispose
Of them for whatever they can get, because
they cost them but $40 a thousand in San
Francisco. Their plan is to take one cigar
out of the middle Of the bundle Of cigars
that they contemplate selling and hand 1T
to their victim as q sample. 1t works like
a charm, it is a clear Havana cigar, but it
is the only good cigar in the bundle. The
rest are ;Hl manufactured by Chinese in
San Francisco. The Cubana Cigar COM
pany and the Espanola Cigar company, two
Chinese firms, manufacture them. The
cigars are all manufactured i'll the slums OF
Chinatown. They are prolific OF breeding
loathsome diseases Of all kinds from a sore
lip to Il case of leDrosy. The sWindlcrs dis
posed of 500, 600 cigars in Denver within the
past few days, and disposed of 100000 on
their former trip during the conclave last
summer. If 1eprosy does not break out in
the aristocratic portions Of Denver, it. will
not be the fault of those swindlers. because
the cigars are manufactured in dens where
disease is rampant at all times, and they
make speciality Of disposing Of them in the
most heightened portions of the cities.

Science and Farming.

The Southern Cultivator says it is the
fashion of some ignorant people to sheer
at what they are pleased to call 'scien-
tifc farming" They are too stupid to
understand that the most intimate con-
nection exists at present between science
and every human industry, including
farming, and that without the help
which science has and is constantly Civ
ing, we would soon relapse into the semi
civilized condition of past ages.
Science, the Investigations and inven-
tions of scientific men, have been of in
calculable benefit to the farmer, and

he now gratis when the vine has made
a growth of from six inches to one foot
in the spring. He uses a scion Is inches
long with short side spurs. This is in
serted as cleft grating, and the point of
union is moulded with earth until the
scions unite. Where the stocks are
larger than the scions he puts in graft
on each side, claiming that the long
scion with many buds is less apt to be
drowned out by the ascending sap from
the well rooted stock.-Ex.

Broom Corn and Brooms.

The subject of raising in the lower
Southern States the broom corn consumed
in that section at least, is now once
more under pretty general consideration.

have elevated agriculture into one OF
the most wonderfully attractive vOca'
tions of mankind, as it certainly is the
most useful and important one.
Compare agriculture of fifty years
ago with agriculture of to-day, and con-
template the astonishing contrast in farm
machinery, in labor saving appliances,
IN the knowledge of soils, in drainage,
in the improvement Of crops, in all
things that practically testify to the
progress and development of the human
race, and we must acknowledge that this
wonderful contrast between the present
and the past, especially of the past half
century, is due to science applied to ag
riculture.
The man who nowadays sneers at what
he calls scientific farming" and who
holds in contempt the progress and i'm
provement going on in agriculture as it
is going on in all departments of human
industry and enterprise, that man is a
fool and deserves the contempt, tempered
with pity, of intelligent people.
Just to mention one proof of the thOus-
andS known to all men, Of how science is
daily helping the farmer, we note the
statement of Professor Charles S. Plumb,
in the Popular Science Monthly, for May,
in reference to the inspection of fertili-
zers There is not now Il State in the
fo I,
not on its statute books a law for the
scientific inspection of fertilizers to be
used in the State, and to protect its
farmers against spurious and shOddy
stuff Dishonest manufacturers are con-
stantly striving to cheat farmers with
fraudulent fertilizers, and to evade the
sooner or later and their false wares are
cast out Professor Plumb mentions a
case, which occurred short time ago,
where fertilizers were suddenly placed
upon the Indiana market and sold for
1927. So and 1923. so per ton, respectively.
These were analized by the State chem
list, and the former was found to have a
value of $5.76 and the latter of ST. Al per
ton. These were out and out swindles;
yet had it not been for prompt publ
cation from the State Experimental
Station at Pardue University as to their
real character, many farmers of the
State of Indiana would have been unmer-
cifully swindled. In view of the fact
that millions of dollars worth of fertili-
zers are sold yearly in the United States,
one can readily understand how great is
the sum Of money that is being yearly
saved to the farmers of the coutry through
the interposition of the chemist.

deeply shaded avenues of the mod
ern farm village. Electrical tram
ways will not only traverse the
graded, well-paved streets, but will
also be found running around and
through the orchards and vineyards
and meadows as we'll. The plant
ing, cultivation and harvesting will
be largely done by the same agency
that propels the farmers dainty
carriage to the city over the asphalt
paved streets, or furnishes h
music in his parlors. With a null
tiplicity of manufacturing interests
induced by cheap power, the farm
ers market will be largely at his
own door, and the days of long
hauls by sorry teams over muddy
roads will be to the coming "elec-
trical farmer" as the hideous dream
of a barbarous past.
Ten years ago these suggestions
would no doubt have been regarded
as the well-meant but absurd utter
ances of hopeless crank. But
all men who are awake to the events
transporting in the world about
them see an impending revolution
in industrial methods and indus
trial appliances. To utilize the
mountain stream in producing the
power to till the soil it is destined
to water, and to bring to our aid
the tides Of ocean, whose incalCula
bic force has been wasted through
out untold ages in washing and re-
washing the barren sands, is the
work of the near future. Just
step further than we now are, in
fact, will revolutiOnize the world.
We are about to send the power of
Niagara to distant points, to turn
wheels and to carry burdens. The
same may and will be done with
all our mountain streams that are
poured upon the thirsty land, and
when we may bring the force treas
ured in the ocean itself to meet
that brought from the mountain
tops. the widest dream of the
widest dreamer of industrial pro-
gress will be near its fulfllment.-
Age.

1t was considerably agitated some ten
or fifteen years ago, and many tests made
in the black belt of Mississippi and Ala
bama showed entire success with the
crop under correct management. The
broom industry is the subject of an in
teresting and valuable article in recent
number of the Mirror of Commerce.
1t is stated that an excellent quality of
broom corn, suitable in every way for the
manufacture of the various grades of
brOoms, whisks, ETC., can be grown in
South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, as
has been proved by recent trials of it in
those States.
Uniformly successful results were OBJ
tanned from the planting of seed that
was sent out by Kulman Brothers, of
Savannah, one of the few firms in the
South that are engaged in broom manu-
facture. The average product per acre
was estimated at about 500 pounds,
which brought 81 cents per pound, or
about $3.50 to the acre. That is as
good an average return as is obtained
from cotton, and cotton is a more trouble
some and expensive crop. 1t is believed
that with added experience broom corn
should be made to yield at the rate of
$50 per acre
This crop has the advantage over to-
baccO that it requires no special skill in
it's culture or in harvesting, curing aud
further manipulation. If kept clean
until it is a foot high it afterwards prac-
tically takes care of itself. 1t is excep-
tionally free from insect enemies It's
preparation for market consists simply
in drying and baling it.
Broom manufacture has the advan-
tages of not requiring expensive labor or
machinery. The necessary mechanical
appliances, such as would be used in
starting the business in a small way, are
simple and inexpensive. Hand labor
will answer for almost every process, and
fora large factory the machinery is mex
pensiVe, as compared with that of other
factories. Good broom makers can be
engaged for 81. so day, or by the piece,
but large portion of the work can be
done by boys.

fact, the age of electrical agricul-
ture appears to be just before us,
especially in the farther and greater
West, and on those arid areas
where judicious irrigation is max
ing such giant strides.
In all this vast region SO rapidly
developing under the eye of the
Age, the small farm or orchard Of
ten or twenty acres will become
the rule, and the large "rancher"
will disappear. Throughout all the
so-called arid region there is des-
tined to live in unusual comfort,
and even affluence, a denser popu-
lation than any American State can
now boast. 1t is a reasonable eS-
innate that with the modern appli-
ances now and in the future at
command of the intense soil tiller
of the ''irrigated belt" each square
mile Of land will certainly sustain as
great a population as is now found
anywhere on the earth-or we may
say 500 people. This number is
less than that now living in Bel
gium, and is scarcely more to the
square mile than are now living IN
England. With such a popula-
ton on the irrigated lands, with
their infinitely varied interests and
industries. we NAV easily, if not
necessarily, assume that the NOV
ing force in nearly every phase Of
life will be electricity.
For it is just here, in SO thicllly
populated communities, or in sec
tons capable of supporting large
populations through the agency of
irrigation, that electrical power is
destined to be evolved at the least
possible cost. Wherever irrigation
on a large scale is possible, there
must be large volumes of water
falling from higher to lower levels.
In California, Arizona, Utah, and
indeed throughout the coast and
mountain States and Territories.
the sources of irrigating waters are
found largely or mainly in the
higher reaches of table land or
broad valleys among the noun
tains, and often thousands of feet
above any of the lands to be wa
tered. Thus an almost unlimited
water supply may be secured along
the irrigating streams or at points
of advancement from reservoirs high
up among the mountains. This
all-potent energy, inacce S sible
hitherto, may now be carried over
simple wire and applied to all
the possible uses of the thrifty soil
tillers below, and of those commu
mites or interests subsisting by
reason of their labors.
The telephone will then be. an
essential feature of every dwelling,
and the electric lamp will light the

JOHN SoNrAG was buried on the
plains two miles from Fresno. Over
1000 people gazed at the remains
of the dead outlaw when exposed
to view at the Jail. Only one per-
son shed tears at the grave and that
was his aged mother, who always
believed, and still believes, that her
son was innocent and victim of
circumstances. Mrs. Sontag knelt
by the side of the grave, where stood
no one but the pall-hearers and a
Chronicle reporter, saying between
her sobs, sII-v.iil curry my boy with
my own hands," at the same time
throwing the dirt upon the coffin
lid. The heart broken mother was
led away and driven back to Fresno,
where she left the same day for the
bedside Of her other bandit son,
George Sontag, in the Fulsom pen

Twenty-Five Firemen Cremated

A terrible conhagration occurred
at the Worlds Fair grounds, Mon
day, which claimed nearly two score
of victims, and for a time threat
ened the destruction Of the entire
city of Chicago. The fire originated
in one of the fair buildings not be-
longing to the Exposition but used
as a warehouse. The building con-
tanned about forty barrels of linseed
oil which added fuel to the flames.
That the fire was not communicated
10 other Worlds Fair buildings was
due to favorable wind. The scene
of horror was witnessed by thous-
ands of people, when strong men
wept and women tainted as one life
after another was sacrificed in the
death-dealing flames. The building
was FIVE stories high, and in the
center rose cupola 200 feet high,
used as a smokestack. In this the
firemen were imprisoned, and being
unable to escape by the burning of
rope-ladders, those that were not
cremated leaped to the roof, ninety
feet below, and were crushed to q
pulp. Mayor Harrison, realizing
the narrow escape of the entire city
by the confagration, says the city
of Chicago must assume control
over the fair buildings SO far as
protecting life is concerned. The
city will take no more chances OF
destruction.
