Change in Southern Methods.

The enforced economy of the last
two years has caused complete change
in Southern farm methods and the
credit system is being superseded by
a cash basis. The low price of cotton
for the last few years forced upon
farmers the necessity of raising their
own food stuffs, and added to this was
the decision of bankers and factors to
advance much less money on cotton
than formerly. The result has been
change that for the time being, while
passing from the credit system, with
its liberal buying, to cash system,
requiring the closest economy, there
has been less trade with farmers, and
hence a decreased volume of general
business in the South.
But this has brought about more
solid condition of the business in farm
trade throughout the South than we
have had for many years. Merchants
are CARRYING small stocks and buying
only as needed. Farmers are paying
off their debts to such an extent that,
without exception, letters from bankers
say that the farmers are less in debt
than for years The money that
formerIy went North and West for
provisions and grain has been retained
at home, and the full result is that
this section is probably less i'll debt to
its own banks and less in debt to the
North and West for supplies than in
any year since the war ended. New

Took Dynamite as Last Course.

fhe appetite enjoyed by dog
owned by John Knox, a well known
farmer of West Manayunk, is a matter
of pride to the natives of that suburb.
It is Newfoundland dog of more
than average intelligence and rare di-
gestive powers. Yesterday he started
his lunch on a box of axle grease.
Then he entered the blacksmith shop
of Samuel Sturgis and ate with evil
dent relish two pounds of putty. A
visit to Wetherill's grocery store
yielded him three pounds of tallow
candles, which he devoured with great
@usto. Needing exercise after this, he
ran over to RYan's quarry, where his
attention was attracted to a stick of
dynamite that was being thawed out
near the stove. The explosive seemed
to suit his taste, and he promptly be-
gan to crunch it. A stampede of the
men followed. They were afraid to
kick the dog away from his meal for
fear of an explosion, SO he lelsurely
consumed the stick and then joined
the frightened workmeD, who for the
rest of the day treated him with
marked considerations hiladel phla

MasfOdou Bones Found.

The people of Frankfort, Marshall
County, Kansas, are greatly excited
over the discovery of a mastodon' s
tooth dug up in the streets of that
town. The peculiar thing about it Is
that minister, Rev. S. NJ. Hopkins,
found it in front of his residence, and
as he is superstitious, the good man
thinks it is a terrible warning, and
has preached about it to his congrega-
ton, assuring them that it is the fore
runner of trouble to that people.
When Rev. Mr.. Hopkins found this
mammoth tooth he called in the
neighbors and a measurement was
made of it. The great tusk measured
fourteen inches in length, six inches
in width and six inches from the
grinding surface to the end of the
remaining portion of the fangs.
The bone portion of the tooth Is
petrified, but the enamel is just As
bright and perfect as it ever was. 1t
is an interesting specimen and people
have travelled many miles to look at
it. Parties have been digging for
other evidences of former mastodon,
and have been rewarded with rich
finds. They unearthed several monster
bones, showing that a mastodon of
great proportions died their many
years ago. st. Louis Republic.

RIOTS AND A PANIC.
Mob of Anarchists ClamOr at BOs
toms State House.

toms State House.
About 1000 persons gathered on the Com
mons, Boston, Mass, to listen to addresses
by Morrison l. Swift, Herbert n. Casson and
other Socialist-Anarchists, as they call them
selves.
After hearing the speeches the . crowd
marched TO the State House. where swift and
Casson were made delegation to visit Gov
ernOr Greenhalge.
They demanded, as they themselves put it,
that employment should be given to the
crowd which they LED.
The Governor intimated to Swift and Cas-
son that he would do all in his power to help
the unemployed, and that he had no doubt
the Legislature would do something for the
men. He consented to come out and address
the crowd He said to the people that per
sonally he would do all he could and that he
would recommend action by the Legislature.
After this Swift and Casson. followed by a
crowd of unemployed, went up to lay their
petition. On their return Smith made q
speech in Doric Hall, threatening the Gov
eminent and Legislature.
Chief Wade, of the district police, immedi-
ately telephoned to the Police Headquarters
for fifty patrolmen. and they started at once
for the scene. This was at 2 so p. m.
Governor Greenhalge met CassOn and
Swift directly after Swift's speech in the
Governors chamber. He told Swift the lat
ter's speech was utterly improper and OBJ
noxious The Governor said that intimida-
ton would not be tolerated.
While the mob was surging back and forth
in the rotunda after Casson's speech Gov
ernOr Greenhalge came out of the Executive
Chamber and went down upon the floor
among the crowd. He addressed some OF
the leaders and reminded them that this was
the State of Massachusetts, and that if the
demonstration continued the law would be
enforced and the crowd would be dealt with
as mob. His remarks were treated with
respect and had a quieting effect.
Meanwhile Doric Hall was damned, null
titude pressing into every nook and corner
of the building. Kisses, mingled with cheers,
were heard everywhere.
There were shouts of, Down with cap
ital ~ kill the police - at the capitol.
The Legislators themselves were rushing
about everywhere, although the proceedings
of the Legislature still continued. Every
thing pOrtended trouble.
The force of police was sent from the vari
Gus downtown precincts and by the aid OF
the patrol wagons arrived in time.
The police were in charge of Lieutenant
Donovan, of Headquarters. He reported to
SerSeant-atArms Adams and Chief Wade, of
the State police. and after a short consuita-
ton the finest of Boston took action.
At o clock the crowd at the State House
had been driven back upon the Common and
order restored about the gilded dome.

MARKING SHEEP.

Much complaint is made of the dam
age done to wool by marking with tar
or paint which will not wash of. The
following recipe is recommended as
one which will resist the weather and
at the same time can be readily re-
moved with soap and warm water:
Take lampblack or Spanish red, and
mix with strong vinegar; mix it we'll
to the thickness of paint. The sheep
should be marked on some part of the
hack; by this means the mark is not
SO likely to be obliterated by the ami
mails rubbing together. By employ
ing the above mixture, instead of the
wool being deprecated in value, as it
is by the use of tar and paint, it will
bring it's full value. New Yo-k World.

Most Destructive of Weapons.

The reply to this question nat
urally divides itself into weapons
which have been tried in actual war
fare, and those whose powers have
only been tested by experiment. OF
the former the distinction would be
about equally divided between the
torpedo and the machine-gun. In the
Chilean war the Blanca Encalada,
struck by one torpedo, went down IN
a few minutes with 400 men on board.
The same war proved that no living
creature can remain in an exposed pO-
sition within the range of machine
gun fire for more than a few minutes,
and this conclusion is accepted by all
authorities. In the second category
the palm must be given to NJ. Turpin' s
new "war machine" which is a light
calibre machine gun, manipulated by
four men and drawn on a carriage by
two horses. 1t will project hail of
5000 missiles every fifteen seconds at
a range of nearly three miles, over a
space measuring 100 yards each way.
