together in clinch, Corbett at once
an niicipatlng his opponents move by
putting the heel of an open glove against
MitchelPs nose. Mitchell then after a
couple of efforts got in with his left on
the stomach of the American. Corbett
countered with his right on the ear and
brought the color to the Briton's face.
Mitchell twice led for Corbett's ribs,
landing both times but short in each
instance.
Corbett continues nursing his man
around the sides of the ring as Schaefer
would the ivories in long rail run.
Corbett landed lightly with his left,
Mitchell making it good with two body
blows, one to the short ribs and the
other on the chest; both we're light and
landing without leaving any superficial
traces. Mitchell again sent out
bis left falling short and doing
no harm. On another lead from
Mitchell who was being pinned
against the ropes and thus forced to
lead, Corbett planted light left over
the heart of the Englishman and Mitch
ell once more tried to fight his man off
by leading with his left the American
countering with his right for the head
Mitchell avoided it by his famous and
clever duck. Just before time was
called he led for Corbett's face landing
lightly when Corbett went to hit cor
ner, smile of self-confidence lit up his
features as if to say, He's weighed and
found wanting"

Tobacco in Early Times.

According to John Aubery, who
wrote celebrated work on ''the very
queere Indian weede," there was time
when tobacco was worth its weight in
silver. Among other things Aubery
says: "Sir Walter Raleigh was the
first that brought tobacco into Eng
land, and in our parts-North Willis
it came first in fashion through Sir
Walter Long. They had silver pipes,
but the commoners used walnut
she'll 1t was sold then for its weight
in silver. have heard some of our old
yoeman neighbors say that when they
went to Chippenham to market they al
ways culled out their shillings to lay
in the scales against the tobacco. Now
the customers of it are among the
greatest that his majesty hath"

HOW 1T WAS DONE.
An Account of the Great Fight by
Rounds.

Corbett at the call of time sprang to
the center of the ring with his man just
emerging from his corner. Corbett
fought with the same style of guard
employed 80 successfully in his com bat
with Sullivan. Mitchell's guard was
low, with his left hand tending down
ward and his right went in over his
heart. The Englishman was forced to
the south ropes by feints and for a
minute the men stood or pranced feint-

short in the effort, Corbstt endeavering

FARM AND GARDEN.
MATTERS OF INTEREST TO
AGRICULTURALISTS.
Some Up to Date Hints About Cultiva-
ton of the Soil and Yields Thereof
Horticulture, Viticulture and Flori-
culture
Bulbs for Window Gardens.

HyacinthS in pots can be successfully
grown with but little trouble and will
produce flowers with less sunshine
than almost any other plant, says
American Gardening For pot culture
select solid, heavy bulbs, without re-
gard to size; second sized bulbs will
generally prove quite as satisfactory as
the larger ones, besides being much
cheaper. The first consideration in
selection being the choice of color; the
work of potting the bulbs should be
done as early in the season as is possi-
bic, long before their bulbs show any
disposition to make growth. For a
single bulb land we prefer growing
them singly in pots five inch pot is
sufficiently large, or what is much bet
ter, a quart tin can, of which every
family has an abundance; these are to
be preferred, because the soil will re-
tain moisture much longer in cans than
in earthen pots, and nothing injuries
the hyacinth more than to have its
roots become dry, which they will
do as soon as they come in contact
with the earthen pot, unless
great care is exercised in watering.
Use any good potting mold, light
rich one being preferable. Remove
little soil from the central surface, and
into this opening lightly press the bulb
so a : not to have the soil hard beneath
it, but pack the soil firmly around it,
leaving about one third of the bulb
visible; if the bulb be pressed too firmly
into the soil, when the roots begin to
grow they will lift the bulb out of it's
proper position. After potting water
thoroughly, then set the pots in any
sheltered position, dry one being
preferable, and cover with soil, or,
what is better, coal ashes, to the
depth of six or eight inches; over
this spread leaves or coarse litter, to
prevent freezing, so that they may
be brought into the house as re-
quired. The common practice of put
ting them in cellar or shed without
covering them is not a good one, as
the soil is apt to get too dry after the
roots start, from the i'll effects of which
the plants never fully recover. For a
succession of bloom, bring in as many
as desired early in December, and at
intervals of two weeks until the mid
die of February, which will keep up
the succession until it is time for them
to bloom in the open border. If the
bulbs have been kept from the frost, as
they should have been, they will have
made considerable top growth, in
which case bring them gradually to
the light until they get their natural
color, after which they will stand all
the light and heat the living room will
afford. 1t is better, however, to grow
them in rather low temperature, as
the flowers will retain their beauty for
a much longer period, although they
will thrive in any position or temper

Electric Lights and shade Trees.

In the larger cities, where shade trees
are few and scattering, electric lights
seem to have no visible effect upon their
foliage. In the towns and villages,
however, many of which have their
electric light systems, the effect is very
noticeable, the leaves appearing as
though they had been subjected to the
blighting breath of harmattan. The
question was recently discussed at a
meeting OF the eastern aboriculturists,
the conclusion being that trees need
darkness in order that they may sleep,
and that being continually kept awake
and active they have been worn out,
and made prematurely old by the action
OF the light. That this is probably the
correct solution of the mystery of the
dropping leaves may be judged from
the fact that similar trees in the neigh
borhood of those affected Though not
exposed to the illumination still, re-
tain their color and seem bright and
strong.-Ex

Making Alfalfa HAY.

The conversion of heavy mass of
green alfalfa into a choice quality of
hay is an operation calling for no
small degree of skill and experience,
says Hay There" But the process is
one to be learned by intelligent obser-
walton and practice, rather than from
written description. The first and
second crop of each season need to be
cured with special care, or they will
certainly mold in the stack. Beginners
need to beware on this point. The
knack to be acquired is that of curing
the hay sufficiently to insure it's keeping
sweet in the stack without becoming so
dry as to shed it's leaves in the hand
ling. This can not possibly be accom-
plished by curing fully in the swath.
A method much practiced is to rake the
alfalfa while still quite green into
windrows, where it is allowed to cure
somewhat more, and finally to make it
into moderate sized cocks, in which it
is allowed to stand until ready for the
stack. This process makes very nice
hay, but where large acreage is to be
taken care of it is too slow and expen-
sive. Alfalfa may be cured with entire
success in the windrow, but it is i'm
portant, when cured in this way, that
there be ample facilities for putting it
into stack very rapidly when ready,
otherwise it will become too dry, and
much of it will be lost in the handling,
especially if it has to be carried from the

Flowers for Amateurs.

Eben E. Rexford says: l would al
ways advise amateur floriculturists to
select old and tested varieties of an
nuals for the summer flower garden.
In doing this, they are sure of getting
something they can depend on. They
run no risks. Others have given these
plants repeated trials, and they have
not been found wanting" But if the
amateur gets a craze for novelties"
he is quite sure to meet with disap-
pointment. Some of the new plants
are good, of course, some very good
indeed, but the majority prove worth
less after being given thorough
trial. To prove this, look over your
old catalogues, and you will find that
by far the greater share of the novel
ties" introduced with such verbal
flourish of trumpets generally drop out
of the list after a year or two, and are
heard no more. Why? Because they
had nothing but their novelty to
recommend them to the fower-loving
public, and as soon as this was found
out there was no further use for them.
To become popular and remain so,
a flower must have real merit.
To indulge desire for novel
ties, one must often put as much
money into one or two kinds, as the
plants with which a large garden is
filled would cost him, because these
new plants are always sold at fancy
prices. 1t is always wise to invest this
money in something you know to be
good. If the new plants are really
meritorious, you will find it out later
on, and then you can buy them. But
let those who have plenty of money to
experiment with ascertain the facts
relative to their merits or dement's.
Because the test of years has proved
how meritorious the standard flowers
of the catalogues are, l feel safe in adj
vising amateur florists to confine their
selections to that list They can be
sure of having good flowers from them
| if they give them a reasona BILE amount
of care, and without that care no flower
will be satisfactory. Most of them are
kinds that require but little attention
after they have got well started. Civ
en- good, mellow soil to grow in, free
dom from weeds, and water, if the
season should prove to be a dry one,
they will bloom profusely; and if kept
from perfecting seed, most varieties
will continue to bloom throughout the
greater part of the season.

SEEDS SowN BY CANNON.-Alexande
Nasymth, the landscape painter, was
a man fruitful in expedients. To his
mind the fact that thing could not be
done in the ordinary manner was no
reason why it should be given up. His
son relates, in London Answers, the
following interesting example of his
ingenuity: The duke of Athol, says he,
consulted him as to some improvements
which he desired to make in his wood
land scenery near Dunkeld Among
other things, certain rocky crag
needed to be planted with trees, to re-
lieve the grim barrenness of it's appear
ance. The question was how to doit, as
it was impossible for any man to climb
the crag in order to set seeds or plants
in the cleft of the rock. A happy
idea struck my father. Having OBJ
served in front of the castle a pair of
small cannon, used for firing salutes on
great days, it occurred to him to turn
them to account. A tinsmith in the
village was ordered to make number
of canisters with covers. The canisters
were filled with all sorts of suitable
tree seeds. The cannon was loaded
and the canisters were fred up against
the high face of the rock. They burst
and scattered the seed in all directions.
Some years after, when my father re-
visited the place, he was delighted to
find that his scheme of planting by
artillery had proved successful; the
trees were fourishing in all the recesses
of the cliff.

Increase the Onion Supply.

How absurd it is for us to import
onions from foreign countries, say from
Egypt, Spain, Cuba, the Bermudas, and
other regions! Can not we raise onions
of every kind, quality, fragrance, fla
vor, size, and any degree of piquancy?
asks the New York Sun. Very surely
we will say that we ought to be able
to do it when we look thoughtfully at
map of the United States, when we
think of the forty-four states and four
territories in the American Union.
New York and Connecticut onions,
Texas and Kentucky onions, Virginia
and South Dakota onions, Oregon and
California onions-what else do the
onion eaters want?-and yet we have
spoken of less than one fifth of the
onion producing states. We have a
whole lot of varieties of good Ameri-
can onions, some of them better than
poetry. Yet here we go along enrich
ing the Egyptians and other for
eigners by buying their onions
at high prices. Look at some figures.
We have this year got 81, 900 large
bags of onions from old Egypt, the an
cient inhabitants of which worshiped
the onion-and very properly, too, we
say-12,00 of them from Havana, 49,
600 crates of them from Bermuda, be-
sides more of the Spanish than we can
tell of, because the importing season
for them has just begun. The Spanish
sell for dollar or more crate, good
deal more at retail. These foreign
onions cost us millions of money, which
ought to be kept for home circulation.
Now, why can not our American onion
growers raise the best onions ever
known to handspring goods from the
south and the Pacific, later goods from
elsewhere? Why do so many of our
onion eaters favor the imported article
rather than the native grown? 1t
seems to us that some of these people
are more pernickety than patriotic.
We ought to raise in this glorious land
all the onions we consume. Why not?

PRINCESS DOLGOROUKI.
She Was the Morganntic Wife of the
Gar Alexander III.

Princess YOurievski, better known as
Princess Dolgorouki, to whom the car
telegraphed news Of his condition last
Saturday, has not lived in Russia since
the death of Alexander IL, to whom
she was mOrganatically married. 1t is
supposed that by some written requests
found after the emperor's death n posi-
ton was assured the princess in the
Russian court, but whether her claims
were advanced in too arrogant a man
ner, or the presence Of her son threat
ened political complications, her depar-
ture with her family from Russia was
insisted upon. Her return was a little
later rendered impossible by a book
which she published concerning the de-
ceased car, and in one passage of
which she seemed to put forward her
son George as an eventual pretender to
the throne. Her children consider
themselves the legitimate children of
Alexander H., as they are certainly
under the ukaSe of the late emperor.
The eldest, Prince George, is hand
some young man of %, and holds a
commission in the Russian navy. He
has two sisters, Olga and Catharine,
aged 20 and 16 respectively. A third
daughter died in the lifetime of the late
Emperor Alexander.
The relations between the princess
and her children and the present en-
peror are by no means as bad as they
have sometimes been represented. He
addresses her as thou" and Mary"
and she calls him Sasha" (the pet
name for AleXander). Even her son
addresses his half-brother, the car, as
thou and Sasha" and the car calls
him "GOgO" Che pet name for George.
The princess is wealthy, her income
having been estimated at 100000 a
year. The name of YOurievski, with
the rank and title of Serene Highness,
was bestowed upon her by an imperial
decree which acknowledged the legality
of the marriage. 1t was celebrated six
weeks after the death of the empress
and more than twelve years after the
car fell in love with Prince Michailo-
witch DOlgOroukfs beautiful daughter
During the war with Turkey the prin-
cess followed the car to the banks Of
the Danube under an assumed name.
Princess YOurievski is now 4S years
old and is still handsome. She has
marked literary tastes, and at one time
was devoted to music and painting,
though for some years past she has
not played note or touched a brush
