K, an occasional journalist and a
familiar figure on the boulevards, had
been fairly pestered by his numerous
creditors since the beginning Of the year.
How was he TO get rid of them2 The in
spiration of a genius germinated in his
fertile brain. He started off TO the coun-
try and wired a message to the Paris pa
pers announcing his own death. The
newspapers paid a tribute Of respect to
his talents, few friends shed tear over
his youth, the shopkeepers entered his
unpaid bills among the profit and loss
accounts. But, behold, q couple Of days
ago one of the lattor--and not the most
accommodating of the lot-met our Bo-
hemian strutting along the boulevards.
"Whatp exclaimed the stupefied cred
itor, 81 thought you were at the ceme-
teryp
you're about right" replied K,
with doleful air. Il have been there
for a month, sure enough. Only, as it
was very fine this morning, the keeper
allowed me to come out, but l have
promised to be back before 6 o'clock. /
wish you good afternoon" K dis
appeared like a phantom, and his cred
itor has not yet recovered from his stu
pefaction. Agenda Printemps.

New York City's "Flnest" Cheored as
E7 They Marched the streets.
New YoRK, June THE annual
parade Of the Metropolitan police force
took place yesterday afternoon. The day
was well adapted for the parade, the bright
May sun being well tempered by a fair
breeze from the southeast
The men formed at the Battery and
marched up Broadway to Twenty third
street, thence to Madison avenue, TO
Forty-hrst street 10 Fifth avenue, and
down the avenue past the reviewing
stand, where the Mayor, city officials and
the lnfanta Eulalia reviewed them.
The parade began to move shortly after
] o'clock. Superintendent Byrnes, mount
ed on a spirited horse, was at the head,
followed Immediately by the mounted po-
lice. The superintendent was loudly
cheered all along the line Of march, which
was packed with people.
The men presented a fine appearance in
their new uniforms and, indeed, we'll sus-
tanned their reputation Of the "finest po-
lice in the world"
The parade was made up Of six divisions,
or battalions, each including ten compan
les. An inspector or captain commanded
each division, which was headed by a brass
band.
There were about 2, 500 men in line.

An apparatus for the measurement Of
actinism promises to be of great service
to astronomers, as it viii be specially
valuable in examining the luminosity of
the sky in diffused light. The apparatus
presents some interesting features from
an electrical point Of view. 1t consists
essentially Of two plates Of oxidized cop
per immersed in water containing one
one-thousandth Of either chloride, iodide
or bromide of sodium. One of the plates is
exposed to the action of the rays of light,
while the other is protected from this
action either by surrounding it with
parchment or paper, or by placing it di-
rectly behind the first plate at distance
of about a millimcter. The action of
the light is instantaneous, and although
the sensitiveness of the element decreases
rapidly at first, it soon becomes virtually
constant. 1t will thus be seen that the
electromotive force of the apparatus is
the phenomenon upon which determine
tions depend. This varies with the color
of the light which acts upon it,

During the harvesting time for general
farmers the seedfelds present a most de-
sirable sight. Rich, luscious melons,
such as never appear in market, may be
scattered over hundreds of acres of land
in bewildering numbers, or fine green
cabbage, lettuce or other vegetables may
produce a mass of foliage that clothes
the landscape in rich colors.
The cultivators go through the fields
at this time and pull up all of the poorly
matured plants, leaving only the most
perfect ones to go to seed. A few more
weeks and the green heads turn yellow
and brown. Seed pods and stalks shoot
up from the heads Of green, and the
plants have to be watched every day to
ascertain the proper time for harvesting
them.
When the time arrives, laborers are
sent into the fields in companies, and in
the course of a few days or weeks all of
the seed pods are collected and carried
to the barn made purposely for their re-
ception.
Pumpkins, watermelons and cucum-
bers are loaded upon carts and taken to
the seed separatOrs, where they are
crushed to pieces and the seeds separated
and dried. The onions, cabbages, let
tuce, peas and beans produce their seeds
in pods or balls, and these are gathered
in the field by men and women, who clip
off the narrow stalks and throw them
into baskets or bags. The pods are al
lowed to dry in the sun, and then the
seeds are separated from them by ma
chinery, handwork or by thrashing. The
barns are divided into seed bins and
rooms, and all of the seeds are collected
here to be stored away until ready for
shipment.
Some Of the seedhouses have the seeds
put up in packages right in the barn,
while others have them shipped to their
city warehouse in bulk. One seed farm
will send off several carloads of seed in
one season, while the leaves and stalks
of the plants left in the fields can often
be sold for fodder or some other purpose.

Trouble on the New Jersey Central ROAD
Over Wages and Time.
NEW YORK, June l. j. Rogers Maxwell,
president OF the Central railroad Of New
Jersey, in regard to the demands for in
creased wages made by the company's en-
ployes is not inclined to outline the course
the company will pursue, but stated that
an answer will be made to the grievance
committee which represented the men, in
about week.
AS far as the demand itself is concerned,
Mr.. Maxwell said that it was made In the
proper forms, and with no evidence of hos
tility, but the wages paid by the Central
are as high as those paid by other roads,
he believed, and no valid reasons were ad-
vanced by the committee why there should
be an increase. The president would not
say what his answers to the men would be,
but he felt confident there would be no
strike in any event.
On the part of the employees 1t is said
that they will strike if their request fol
shorter hours and increased wages is not
granted But lie was found difficult tC
confirm this, as the men themselves de-
cline TO discuss the subject until the result
of the visit to Mr.. Maxwell is made known
