wrecked the lower part of the print

accident occurred during the progress

the jugular vein with knife and then
shot her four times, one of the balls
passing directly through her heart.
She died instantly. Rose was pur-

FARM YARD MANURE.
Its Different Uses and Powers, Physical
as well as Chemical Action.

/ It's DlI1erent Uses ana foNefs, "A t-hNsiChi
well as Chemical Action.
Manure eXerts Il physical action
upon the soil as we'll as a chemical
agency. 1t gives stability to light
sandy soils, making them more alb
sorbent of moisture; renders tenaci
Gus clay soils more open and pliable
in their nature, thereby admitting
the freer passage of the rain and at
mospheric air; as well as promotes
the decomposition of those soils,
thereby rendering them more fertile
For dung to act mechanically in rem
dering a soil more, and in overcoming
its tenacious character, the farmer
must let the manure retain much of
the rigidty of the straw, or in other
words, it must not be too rotten.
In using it for very porous soils,
which need to be compressed rather
than rendered open, the natural
toughness of the straw should be en-
tirely overcome, and the dung used
in rotten state. There are many
other duties discharged by dung
which may be grouged together un-
der the term of chemical action.
While it devolves upon the mechani-
cal agency to render the soil adapted
for being traversed by the roots of
the growing crop, the chemical pow
ers supply that nourishment which
is needed for the development of the
crop. 1t is, therefore, in their com
bined action that the most desirable
results become manifest. 1t is, how
ever, worthy of inquiring whether or
not the use of fresh dung for stiff
land and rotten dung for porous land
is supported and confirmed by the
chemical character of dung.
When fresh dung is used upon stiff
land the decay which takes place acts
upon the land, and renders the dor
mant ingredients of the soil active,
and thereby converts matter which
could not nourish plant into valu-
able food for vegetation. 1t also i'm
parts to the soil beneficial warmth
which is favorable to termination
and vegetable growth. In addition
to this the absorbent power of the
soil seizes and retains the products
of this fermentation of the dung,
and secures them until required by
the growing plant,
In the case of a sandy soil the cir
cumstances as well as the powers of
the soil, are totally different. The
porous character of the soil is de-
cidely unfavorable to its powers of
retaining manure, and consequently
we cannot look upon such soils as
safe guardians of manure and for
this reason the manure should be
added so as to be Immediately avail
able for the crop.
The manure, consequently, is more
suitable when well rotten, upon
chemical grounds as well as upon a
consideration of it's mechanical char
acter The same principle is appli-
cable to all the intermediate descrip-
tions Of soil, modified by the same
rule.

Sentenced To Marriage.

A young man and young woman
were contesting the possession of a piece
of property, says the Gripsack, the one
claiming it under an old lease, the other
an old will.

that there is a pleasant and easy way to
terminate this lawsuit. The plaintiff
seems to be a respectable young man,
and this is very nice young woman.
They can both get married and live up
on the farm. If they go on with law
proceedings the property will all be
fritted away among lawyers, who, am
sure, are rot ungallanC enough to wish
the marriage not to come off,
The lady blushed and the young man
stammered that they liked each other a
little bit, so a verdict was rendered for
the plaintiff on the condition of his
promise to marry the girl within two
months-a stay of execution being put
to the verdict till the marriage ceremo-
nv shouldIbe completed.

fenced to matrimony in court of law.

Presbyterians.

From the New Y DIRK Press.
The only comment ex-President Harri-
son made on Mr.. Clevelands cabinet
while an his journey home was that,
"with one exception, every member is
Presbyterian" That exception is Mr..
Carlisle, who is not member of any
church, but who, like his chief, is in
clined to the Presbyterian church, it is
said. An old politician who has looked
into 1.-THE question tells me that there
were more Presbyterians in both houses
of congress than representatives of any
other two churches, and that he could
name more than a dozen states whose
governors are Presbyterians.
When asked how he accounted for the
Presbyterian preponderanoe in the con-
duct of public offices, he playfully re-
marked, "They believe in election"

committee went to Atlanta from
Pike county last Wednesday to ask aid
for the people that were injured in Fri
day nights cyclone. Col. Tom Barrett,
in speaking of the cyclone, says:
81 have seen war and men killed and
the land fillel with la nentations, but
there were no women in the war. The
cyclone spared no one. 1t was no re-
spector of persons. Men, women and
children, white and black, were killed
and MANNED. 1t came on us about 8
o'clock ora little later. Most folks in
the country were in bed at that time.
With horrible roar the storm swooped
down on us. You could hear the pass
ing of it for miles. The sky was lit up
by lightning SO that you could read a
newspaper all over the county pretty
much. This cyclone seemed like a great
mountain of fire doing a round dance
across the country. 1t was revolving fu-
riously and moving ahead at a great rate
of Oeed. Before the unfOrtunates knew
that danger was near the storm was up
on them. Nobody had a chance to get
away. 1t was like war times. You did
not have time to get behind the breast
works or in the bomb-proOf just when
the greatest danger came. There may
have been some pits in the section, but
but there was no warning to get into
them. Houses were caught in the tor
nado and sucked right up off the ground
or crushed in before the inmates could
get out of bed. And when they did run
for protection they did not help them
selves. The saddest case was that Miss
Annie Hawkins, daughter of Ed Haw-
kins, farmer. She was a grown young
lady and lovely young woman. In her
alarm she ran to her father. He clasped
her in his arms and just as he did the
house collapsed and they were buried in
the debris. She was killed almost out
right, and his bones were broken in eY
cry part of his body. helped to take
them out. Hawkins was pinioned down
by heavy timbers and his child was lock-
ed fast in his embrace. He could not
release the dead body until we took all
the timbers off.
Two hundred people were wounded
in Pike alone, 120 houses were blown
down and 800 PEG lie left homeless.

the prompt payment of the $95,OOO owed
TO him by the government, and which
he demanded on such short notice. for
It's payment lost him every vestige of
