NEWARK, N. j., Feb. 14.-A success
full operation was performed by Drs.
CRUDE and Towle this morning upon
John Carberry, who has been suffering
from severe attack Of hiccoughs for
the past II weeks. The operation con.
sisted of the removal of portion of the
inferior dental branch Of the inferior
maxilliary nerve, thus destroying the
connection OF nervous energy between
the brain and the diaphragm.
The operation occupied a5op: half an
hour Carberry refused to take ether
and joked with the physicians con-
tinually. At the close Of the operation
he expressed himself as feeling greatly
relieved, although the hiccoughs still
continued in reduced energy. The doc
tors are highly pleased with their ork
and look Tor his speedy recovery.

OLD TIME HARVESTING.

Harvest came about July LIST. The
farmer and his neighbcrs would all Join
together and take care of each others
fields of wheat as they ripened. When
one was finished and the wheat gathered
into the barn they would go over to the
next field.
There was always extra provision on
these occasions, the best the farmer
could furnish the table with. 1t was
some trouble in the summer season TO
keep the meat fresh. But as rule all
farmers had spring houses and cellars
where they kept the meat cool. Some
times in very warm weather they would
lower the meat with a pillow line into
the well, suspending it just above
water. There were no ice-houses then.
In fact, the two old folks that | lived
with always kept their butter in the
well. The old lady was good butter
maker, she was renowned all over town
for her prime product.
There were always three substantial
meals for the harvesters. The best
Of fresh meat was served at dinner with
all the vegetables obtainable. If the
farm wife YVES short she would borrow
from her neighbors so as to have first
rate harvest table. 1t was lasting dis
credit not to give the harvesters a
generous feed. With the meat, beef,
mutton or veal, there was pota.
toes, beans, beets, squash in plenty,
and at the second table, rice pud-
ding, pie and custards, with plenty of
good milk to drink while eating the
pie. Breakfast was about 6 O'Clock.
Sometimes when the men went to
work earlier, breakfast was at Z O'clock.
Shad and mackerel (salt of course) was
at this meal with coffee, and plenty of
real home made good bread and butter.
Supper was the same as breakfast.

rhair Board sRaduaed.


COLUMBIA, S. c., Nov. 3.-GoVer.
nor Tillman returned yesterday after.
noon from Clemson College where he
has been attending the annual meeting
Of the directors Of that institution.
The board, in addition to preparing
it's annual reports for toe Legislature,
decided on number Of important mat
ters.
l. will oo good news to the poor boys
of the State who are ambitious to at.
tend Clemson and who are deferred be-
cause of the lack of faaccss to know
thai the Trustees reduced the price of
board from 81 month to IS, to take
effect from the mex! session, which opens
in February. This is cheaper than at
any institution of the kind in the United
States. The Trustees think that the
price of board can be permanently kept
at a6 a month. The students will be
given the same bill of fare as nov and
viii! be allowed all they want to eat.
The Trustees will call on the L.glsla.
ture for an appropriation to aid the col.
lege next year. It has not been decided
what will bs asked for bus it mag be
somthing like 100000. This appropria.
ton Hill BE- necessary tor several rea-
sons. Oae is that the loss Of the man
building by fire this summer entailsd q
serious loss on the college. Another is
that the institution hss spent great dea!
of money this year in completing the
various buildings which are absolutely
necessary to the successful carrying out
Of the work to be done. Still another
resson is that the income from fertilizer
tags next year is expected to be very
much reduced. This IS because the loT
price OF cotton has put the farners il
such condition that they will buy little
fertilizer next year.
The present sess::cc OF tbs college has
been shortened. l. vas 70 e1d Decem-
bsr % but the board Y-cvided for its
ending on 3O.h of this month. The
reason for this Is that the heating "a.
cilil;es are mesgre 30 far and the boa;G
does not care to take the risks Of sub,
jectlng the students to the results OF ex
posure. BY the time the next session
opsns, in February, the beating facilities
