by fears OF Losing II Petty Governments
Position.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-Capt. E. w.
Nicholson, superintendent of the
United States treasury stables, COM
mitted suicide yesterday afternoon by
shooting himself in the breast. The
wound did not cause immediate
death, and he was taken to the
Emergency hospital, where he died
few hours later. The deceased was
from Indiana, his son, Meredith Mich
olson, being an editorial writer on the
indianapolis News.
The only cause that can be assigned
for the act was dependency. 1t is said
that Capt. Nicholson, who was a re-
publican, was very anxious to visit his
family in Indiana, but fearing that If
he left his duties to make the visit he
would lose his position, he became de-
pressed IN spirit and ended his life.

A TIM ELY HINT.

Now is a good time to make up ones mind whether or not the level culture plan is the best. There are lands on which it is entirely out of the question. We suspect it has been over-much prais- ed. Perhaps in a very deep soil it may be better than unwise milling. Why not make a trial of at least a few rows of po- tatoes, this year? Our own experience tells us that in 8 comparatively shallow soil generous hill will give good results in four out of five years. Many of our farmers hold to the same opinion, but we may be mistaken, so let us try little the other way where we can, and have the machinery to do it.
