Irrigation In the Garden.

A few years ago my little daughter
brought home about so verbena
plants from II inch pots. They ap-
peared to be worthless and had been
given to her by gardener who was
about to throw them away. To graf
ify the child planted them in the
only place which 1 could use for that
purpose-a shady back yard, trodden
hard by the children. I spaded the
ground about IS inches deep, added a
little fresh earth and well rotted
barnyard manure, making bed
about z feet square, with a shallow
ditch around it. The plants were wa
tered freely with a sprinkler two
evenings and the ditch filled with
water at the same time.
The summer was very dry, but no
further sprinkling was done until the
early frosts camo. About once a
week the ditch was filled with water
and kept filled for an hour. The YER
benas soon covered the ground and
yielded a profusion of bloom until
the plants froze. The effects oflight
frost were dissipated by free sprin-
king with cold water before the sun
reached the bed. Is there not hint
ia this homely experience for water
ing by means of open bitches, where
costly methods of subirrigation are
not practicable? -Garden and Forest.

: An AnecdOte of Handel.

On one occasion Handel was caught
in a shower of rain, and being unpro-
vided with an umbrella was obliged
to seek shelter in a blacksmith forge.
Either Handel was in silent mood
or else the blacksmith showed no
conversational symptoms, for in a
little while the latter began hammer
ing away at his anvil, accompanying
his work with a song. He little
thought the use his visitor was max
ing of him and his anvil, for it is said
that Handel was listening all the time
to the strokes of the hammer on the
anvil, which, by producing two har-
monic sounds, according in time and
tune with the tune the man sang,
formed a bass accompaniment. Han
del, on reaching home, remembered
the air and the hammer accompani.
ment. He wrote down both; and SO
we owe to shower of rain the com.
position known as THE Harmonious
Blacksmith London Standard.

One Exception.

1t Used to be told of General Lo-
gan, who was a member of congress at
the breaking out of the war, that
when he saw there was really going
to be fight he seized musket,
slipped out of Washington and walk
ed all the way to Bull Run, where he
arrived just in time to have a hand
in the fray.
He wore a dress coat, but he stood
his ground as long as any one. The
rout was complete, and the next
morning, good Zeal out of breath,
he was back at the capital, telling
some of his fellow congressman what
he had seen.
''Who gave you this account of the
fight2" asked a member from north
ern New York as he joined the group.
why, was there myself" said
Logan.
The New Yorker was mystifed.
Apparently he had not heard the
news.
"You were there?" he exclaimed.
"Are the cars runningi'
NO" said Logan, ''ihe cars amt
running, but every other thing in the
state of Virginia is, as near as Icould
make out. Youths Companion.

The Dcathwatch.

In the Lighthouses built by our pio-
neer forefathers there could often be
heard in the night when perfect quiet
prevailed a peculiar phenomenon
known as the deathwatch. This
would be heard somewhere in the
wall as one lay in bed and was an
exact imitation of the measured tick
| ing of a watch. Tickee, tickee, tick
zee the sounds would commence, and
when perhaps dozen or 90 ticks had
been given there was silence. The
ticks might be resumed again, and
thus at intervals continue as long as
one cared to listen. By many per-
sons this ticking in the night was
heard with superstitious dread as be-
tokening or prognosticating death.
The sound was really made by di-
minutive wood beetle that had bur-
rowed in the log, but whether this
peculiar ticking was the result of
action involved in perforation or
was the mating call or prompted by
still other motives has never been
made clear.
1t is not known that this death
watch has his habitation in modern
home structures, and the creature
probably does not perforate into tim
bers of such small dimensions as form
the sides of frame houses. AS the
sound itself must be near the listener,
in the wall near the ear, it would not
be heard if in the stills or heavier tim
bers elsewhere, but it was an ofttime
night accompaniment to the wakeful
person who listened in the structures
that are now no more.-Pittsburg

AS TO "CHIPS."

Our correspondent "Cnips" seems to
know more about the Conservatives
than TheHerald and News. Ifthey have
any separate organization or any organ
ization at all it is more than We know.
But then we are not much of a pollti-
clan. The Herald and News is opposed
to rings and cliques and caucuses wher-
ever they may befound. Our position
is that if we are to have primary, let
US have one and everybody 60 into it
who wants to, and let the people speak
by their ballot, and when they have
spoken let that be the end Of it. We
90 not think it is right or fair or just for
a faction to hold a caucus or conven-
ton and say to the candidates for Gov
ernor, for instance, that three of you
must stand aside and only one can 60
before all the Democratic voters. If
that is to be done, the general primary
will be mere farce.
The Herald and News does not pre-
tend to know what "some" people have
done, but speaking for itself, we have
not voted for men in the primary we
would not trust just to keep from vot-
ing for Reformer. We always try to
vote for the best men who offer as our
best judgment may dictate, and IN the
primary voted for some Reformers. The
Herald and News is not that much OF
partisaa, and that is just the spirit of
intolerance that we have heen fighting.
To measure "Chlps" by his own YARD
stick he would not vote for any man
unless he was Reformer. We hope,
however, that he is broader than that.
The Herald and News wants to see
the people united, but in order to &C
complish this we must rid ourselves OF
50 much narrow partisanship. We
want to see good men elected to Office.
The Herald and News has no candidate
for any Office, and as an honest news
paper, stands ready to criticise the Off
cial and public acts of any man when
we think he is not doing right, and if
Mr.. Sigh comes in for part of it we
can't help it. There is no i'll will OF
personal feeling in it. At one time the
editor of this paper supported Mr.
Sigh. When it so happened that we
did not agree with him politically, like
all politicians, he had no gratitude for
past favors, but we can't help that and
have no personal feeling in the matter.
The Herald and News is free lance
and is tied to no mans coat tail. and
will continue to pursue the right as we
see it, criticising where in our Judg-
ment criticism is needed and commend
ing where commendation is deserved.
We want nc office and have no favors
to ask of any of the politicians.
We want "Chips" to remember one
thing: The Herald and News is no
mans organ, and whenever it gets to
be it will have to find another editor.
Whenever this editor cannot express
such opinions as be believes to be right
and Just and true, then he is going to
find something else to do. Please bear
that in mind.
"Chips" is a good friend of The Her
aid and News, and we hope to hear
from him often. We are always glad
TO have his letters.
