Carlisle's Currency Bill to be
Withdrawn.
IT DIFFERS VERY MATERIALLY
Revenue Cutters Grant and Rush Or
dered to Northern Waters--Admiral
walkers Report.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2I.-The Carlisle
currency bill now before the house of
representatives will be withdrawn and a
substitute presented. This decision was
reached after a caucus of democratic
members of the banking and currency
committee quietly held last night, fol-
lowed by a conference between Secretary
Carlisle and Chairman Springer today.
The substitute has already been drawn,
and will be offered by Springer today or
tomorrow, certainly before the holiday
recess, as the desire of all concerned is
to get it before the country prior to adj
journment. 1t differs very materially
from the original Carlisle bill.
Two very important features appear
for the first time in the substitute. The
original Carliole bill contemplated that
all national banks must reorganize under
the new plan. This would have re-
quired them to surrender the govern
ment bonds which now constitute the
basis of their circulation. The substitute
does away with this imperative change.
If the national banks wish to continue
to hold their United States bonds and
issue circulation thereon, they may do
so. 1t is felt they will soon discover the
advantages of the new system, and
therefore adopt it voluntarily. The
other important features of the substi-
tute is that it does away with the un-
known liability of the banks to guar
antee the notes of all other banks. The
original bill contemplated that if ma
tionalt bank failed, its notes would be
paid out of its assets and general safety
fund made up by all banks. But if the
assets and safety fund were insufficient
to pay the notes of the failed bank,
then the comptroller of currency has to
make pro rata assessment and shoulder
them with the unknown risks. In
effect it made them supply insurance on
all notes of the banks in which they had
no concern. In view of these criticisms,
the substitute will be the limit of liza
bility of all banks for the failure of in
dividual banks. They will. however, be
compelled to keep up this safety fund by
more rigid provisions than proposed in
the original bill.

The Wonderful COLD veins struck.

DENVER, Dec. 20.-The recent great
gold strikes in the Leadville district are
csusing wild excitement. Railroads are
taxed to their full capacity. The Den
yer, Leadville and Gunnison railway,
the short line from Denver to the camp,
is preparing to run extra trains to ac-
commodate the travel. Gold strikes
have been numerous in I4eadville for the
past two years, but none have attracted
so much attention as the two latest, in
the Rex and Triumph mines, which es-
tablish the fact that the gold belt ex-
extends at least three miles, the two dis
coveries being that far apart. The pros
is that Leadville in 1895 will be the
largest producer of gold in the world.
There was large attendance of rep
resentative men at the convention of the
Colorad oSilver League today. After
hot discussion the following resolution
was adopted with only two dissenting
votes:
''That the words 'non-partisan' be
stricken from the constitution and by
laws wherever they appear, and that the
members of the Colorado Silver League
refuse to affiliate or work with any po-
litical party which does not nationally
declare, unequivocally, in favor of the
free and unlimited coinage of silver at
rate of 16 to 1.

DISEASE IN FOWLS.

Overcrowding of fowls is sure to
cause disease. The most frequent
troubles thus produced are the two
most fatal disorders of poultry, roup
and cholera. These are both encour-
aged by bad air, dampness and filth.
Cholera is a disorder of the liver by
which the gall is secreted too copiously
and overhows into the intestines, Civ
ing the yellow and green color to the
excrement. The comb and wattles and
cheek lopes are also yellow, and pro-
fuse diarrhea soon kills the bird.
This is due to overfeeding, although
it is a contagious disease, and it is
much encouraged by excess of food,
especially of corn. There is no effec-
tive remedy. Sometimes the fowls
will recover if kept from food and
given only water in which some hypo-
sulphite of soda has been dissolved.
But they mostly die in few days
after the first attack. The roup con-
sists of Inflammation of the head and
throat, the eyes discharge a thick,
sticky matter, and if neglected are
soon destroyed. The treatment for
this disease is to bnthe the head in
warm vinegar and give the bird pinch
ofpowdered chlorate ofpotash dropped
in the throat twice day. Some warm
soft food may be given as soon as the
bird will eat. This disease also is con.
tagious. New York Times.

lures the foliage OF the plants upon
which it is sprayed. This is great
thing in its favor, for frequently in
using Paris green for potato beetle lGr-
VA and for the Goblin worms, as much
injury results from the poison burning
the foliage as would result from the in
sect il let alone.
This is better insecticide than Paris
green under all circumstances and for
all insects, says Professor Fernald. 1t
has the advantage of being readily
seen on the leaves, 50 that one can tell
at glance which have and have not
been sprayed, which is often of great
convenience. Being lighter than Paris
green, il does not settle so quickly,
and as result can be distributed more
evenly over the foliage. A great OBJ
lection to the use of Paris green is the
liability of using an overdose, and
thereby injuring the foliage of the
plants sprayed. With the arsenate of
lead it can be used if necessary in the
proportion Of twenty-five pounds to
100 gallons of water without injury to
the foliage. Professor Fernald advises
the addition of two quarts of glucose,
or if that. can not be obtained two
quarts of molasses to each $50 gallons
of water, used for the purpose of caus.
ing the insecticide to adhere to the
leaves. He says the experiments last
season show that the insecticide will
remain on the trees for long time,
even after quite heavy rains, and we
infer, prove effective. The cost Of
these chemicals is given as eight cents
per pound for arsenste of soda and
fourteen cents for acetate of lead, at
wholesale. 1t should be borne in mind
that these substances are all poisonous,
and should be used with as great care
as Paris green. Orange Judd Farmer.

HARDY ROSES,

Geo. S. Conover, of Geneva, N. Y,

growing hardy roses for fifteen years
past. His iGt now composes twenty
one varieties, beginning with such
good old sorts as Hermosa, Sow. NAL

quette DIES Alps and Pierre Noting,
and ending with Vick's Caprice, Mrs.
John Laing and Lady Helen Stewart
All have proved hardy without pro-
lection. His soil is stiff clay loan,
constantly enriched with stable ma
nure, which is put on spring and fall,
the coarse litter being left on during
the summer as mulch, to secure mois-
ture and even temperature at the
roots Mr.. Conover finds that he can
not make his rose beds too rich.
Commercial fertilizers have been tried
with Indifferent success. He prunes
lightly in early spring; severely just
as the buds start. Early pruning,
followed by frost, is very injurious.
For insects he uses a whale-oil soap
solution, two pounds dissolved in fif-
teen gallons of water, put on with Il
syringe at night, and in the morning
followed by a Swinging with clear
water. This is the original formula
for which the Massachusetts, Horticul-
tural Society awarded a premium oi
500 in 164l. A neighbor showers his
rose beds daily with the hose, and
keeps all insects in subiection. To
bacco dust and stems and good Per
sian insect powder have been found OF
great value.

In getting vinegar for pickles, al
ways try to get apple vinegar, as the
other kinds frequently eat up the
pickles entirely or cause them to turn
soft. Too strong vinegar should be
partly diluted with water.
All pickles should be tightly sealed,
to prevent air reaching the vinegar,
as this kills it. 1t should always be
poured on hot, as it comes to the first
scald-never allow it TO boil.
Never put up pickles in anything
that has held any kind of grease, and
never let them freeze.
If pickles are put into brine, it
should always be strong enough to
bear an egg. Use coarse salt, in pro
portion of heaping pint of salt to {
gallon of water.
The incest way to put up pickles is
to put them in bottles and seal while
hot,-New York journal.

The Kansas Wolf ministry.

, In 1889 the Kansas Legislature
passed law authorizing counties to
pay bounties for wolf scalps. Nearly
every county in the State thereupon
offered n reward of 50 or "a for such
evidence that a wolf had been killed.
Some counties are paying ont as much
MS $4,000 year in this way, the total
in the State amounting ca $50, 000.
The coyote supply continues 10 be
surprisingly large. A correspondent
of the st. Louis Globo-Democrat as
serts that some of the Kansas farmers
who find their farms Improbable have
gone into the business of wolf raising,
in order to eke ont livelihood He
says: "By means Of wiro fences, in
closures with ample burrowing
grounds are made, aud here The crea-
lures increase with marvellous rapid
lily. The growth Of family Of kit
tens can only be compared to them.
For feed, the cheapest OF meat is suffi
cient, and as nothing is required bat
the scalp in order to dlaw bounty,
the carcasses of the killed wolves nre
used for sustenance for those not
ready for market. The best sheep
that the prairie farmer can raise can
scarcely be sold for more than 80. To
produce several littcrs of wolves
year, each member of which is worth
from S3 to 81. exclusive Of skin and
carcass, is, it is seen, very renumera-
tive. These wolf raisers also supple.
ment their homo supply by constantly
hunting on the plains. Parties are
formed which surround creek valleys
and ravines, beating the bush and
capturing, dead or alive, dozensof the
lnnk, gray beasts. The former go to
swell the cash accounts of the hunters
and deplet9 that of the county treas
ury, while the latter are added TO the
supply on the wolf farm"

Probably the most cunning of all
animals is tho mink. Two gentlemen
we're fishing on one of the rivers OF
Maine. The fish were quite plenty
and as soon rs one was caught it was
thrown behind on the grass, After
some time one of the gentlemen thought
he would take rest and at the same
time examine his capture. But he
could not find single fish. He
charged his friend with having played
him trick, but the friend was as sur
prised as he.
They now determined TO watch their
next fish, and their sstonishment was
unbounded when they saw mink run
from a hole near by, snatch up u fish
and carry it off to the hole, where
they afterward found their entire cap
ture cunningly hid under some dead
leaves.
In the same manner the mink steals
game which the sportsmen shoot. On
one occasion q gentleman shot wild
duck but before the dogs could get to
it q mink had stolen it, carried it off
to hole in the frozen snow, which
one mink had prepared while the other
was watching for the opportunity to
steal the sportsman's game. Notwith-
standing this particular characteristic
the mink is brave as we'll as fero-
cious little fellow, and no is excelled
in these qualities only by the ermine.

RECIPES.

How to Make Jelly-Making ounce
and pear jelly be careful to abstract
all the seeds and cores of both fruits
before cooking, as there is a mucilage
in them that will make the Jelly
milky looking and impair the flavor.
Veal Salad-Bits of meal cut fine
make a delicious salad, and very
good way to use up small scraps of
cold beef is to cut them fine or thin
and make layer salad, alternating
with cold boiled potatoes, salt and
pepper, and cover all with a French
dressing.
Kidney Toast Chop fine four veal
kidneys with half pound of calf's
liver; season with pepper and salt.
Make q little butter hot in n frying
pan and toss them about until cooked,
but not overdone. Remove from the
fire aud stir in the beaten yolk of one
egg and half teaspoonful of lemon
juice. Spread on toast and serve at
once. Stewed or boiled potatoes and
hot Indian meal mullins go nicely with
this excellent dish.
Cocoanut Sponge --Thicken one pint
of milk in which is dissolved three
quarters of cup of sugar, with four
tablespoonfuls of cornstarch. Cook
thoroughly in a double boiler. When
cooked and boiling hot, beat this into
the whites of three eggs beaten stiff.
After standing few moments, add
one cup of grated cocoanut. Flavor
with vanilla, and turn into mold, with
grated cocoanut on top.
Steamed Cabbage---Cabbage as usu-
ally cooked, is too heavy for an ordln-
airy stomach to digest. Try steaming
it until soft, and then serve by pour
ing around it a white sauce. Make
the sauce by melting a spoonful of
butter, stirring smoothly into this the
same measure of -four. Pour into the
mixture one pint of milk and boil un-
til thick. Season with salt. This is
almost as dainty a dish as caulihower.
Lemon Dumplings --One pint -four,
one heaping teaspoonful baking
powder and salt sifted together. Mix
with cupful of milk or water. Make
syrup of one-half cupful molasses,
one and one-half cupfuls sugar, two
cupfuls water and two lemons sliced
fine. Bring to a boil and drop in
dumplings and cook fifteen minutes.
Turn them once while cooking. When
the dumplings are taken out add a
little butter to the syrup and pour
over them.

SAT- FoR ANIMALS.

Salt is necessary for all vegetarian
animals, and aids in the digestion of
the food. The belief that it is a pre-
ventive of intestinal worms is well
founded for these parasites are found
mostly in animals of imperfect diges-
ton. The undigested food encourages
these pests, as they feed upon it, or
upon the copious mucus secreted IN
the bowels of animals suffering from
indigestion. Salt should be given
regularly with every feed, if cut food
is used, otherwise in the form of a
lump of rock salt kept in the manger,
where it may always be reached. -
