THE NEW CARDINALS.

The death Of three cardinals, Sera-
fini, Thomas and Ricci Paracciana,
has caused the pope to resolve to
hasten the meeting of the consistory
for the election of new cardinals,
says the European edition of The
Herald. The consistory will be held
in the first days Of April. The number
of cardinals at present in office is
fifty-nine, which leaves eleven hats
vacant. Of those in Office there are
twenty eight non-Italian and thirty-one
Italian.
At the forthcoming consistory the
pope will probably create one French
cardinal, one German cardinal and
three Or four Italian il order that
Italy may have a majority in the
sacred college for the election Of the
future pope.
1t is rumored that a cardinal will
be created in the United States. The
Jesuits are making the greatest pos
sible efforts to get the purple con-
ferrel on Mgr. Corrigan, archbishop of
New York. 1t is, however, far from
sue that they W II succeed. 1t is true
that Mgr. Corrigan is completely rec
onciled with the pope, but there is a
great difference between that and the
comforting Of the hat on him.
The pope is inclined to make Mgr.
Ireland a cardinal, but he fears that
this appointment might be disap-
proved by the majority of the Ameri-
can Catholics and bishops.
Nothing positively is known about
the cardinalate of Mgr. Satolli. It is
certain that he will be made a car
dinal but it is not certain that it will
be in the next consistory. The reason
| for that is that if he creates Mgr. Satolli
cardinal he will have to recall him
| from Washington, because it is con-
| trary to the diplomatic usage Of the
| vatican that a simple apostolic dele
! gate (Which is Satollis itle) should
be cardinal. But the pope has no in
tention of recalling Mgr. Satolli. He
| observed lately to a cardinal that he
was very satisfied with his work, but
that he has still need of his services

DIET FOR SOCIETY WOMEN
They Do Not Need so Much Food as
Others.

According to Mrs. Rorer society
women require less food than any
other class of women, although too
OFTEN they are the ones who eat the
most. They are very apt to acc1mu-
late superfuous flesh, due principally
TO lack OF proper exercise On this ac-
count they should eat very little
starchy foods or oils. Thew shOuId eot

REELFOOT LAKE.
A Remarkable Body Of Water Which
Has a Sea-Like Tide.

St Louis Globe-Democrat: "Reel-
foot lake, in western Tennessee, Is
one of the most remarkable bodies of
water in the United States" said John
E. York, of Troy. ct is popularity
supposed to have a subterranean
source from the Mississippi river, it
having no visible outlet or inlet, but
the evidence seems to be decidedly
against this theory. I tried to fathom
it once, and while this can be done
at some places, yet there is a consid-
cradle area in the center where no line
has yet been found long enough to
touch bottom. 1t is not affected by
the rise and fall Of the river but
has tide corresponding with that of
the sea. The oldest settlers can re-
member when the land where the lake
is now was a fertile farm. One night
there was an earthquake, distinctly
felt, but doing very little damage to
the surrounding country. The next
morning the land was gone and Reel
foot lake was there, and has been
there ever since. It is one of the
most noted fishing resorts in the
south"

ONE WOMAN'S WAY.
She Masks as a Meek Widow When
She Goes Forth Alone.

Washington Post: When a woman
lives alone IN the city, as a great
many clerks in the department do,
there is one problem above all others
with which she is confronted. namely,
that of going about at night 1t is
not always that there are felloW-clerks
in the same boarding house who feel
inclined to go to the theater or 90
calling at the same time, though 'hen
parties" as the exclusively female
theater expeditions are facetiously
termed, are q frequent makeshift. Of
course there are a good many nice
young men who would gladly serve as
escorts, but they are not always want
ed, and sometimes when they are
wanted they are not to be had.
There is one woman, at least, who
has solved the problem for herself
in a way that is somewhat novel A
woman alone on the street at night
in stylish clothes, such as most Of the
Independent young women of the de-
partments wear, is much more apt to
be the subject Of unfavOrable attention
than one not so distinguished. But
the average girl does not want to wear
all her old clothes for the sake of
being inconspicuous, and the young
lady in question has provided herself
with long, plain, black cloak and
little close-ftting widows cap with
a beWitching white ruching inside it.
Thus armed and equipped she can
sally forth with all her best finery
protected beneath the Quakerish cloak.
and there is not one man in 500 who
would not respectfully give her the
whole width of the sidewalk as she
walks meekly forth to some merry
making.

Northwestern farmers are fighting a
combine OF thrashing-machine manu-
facture ere and OPERATOR which was
formed last November Under this
combine no thrashing is to be done
at less than ) cents bushel for wheat
and 3 IL cents for oats. These are
certainly excessive prices for lots Of
grain sufficient to make a good days
work, and the straw we'll filled with
plump grain. The plan Of the farmers
is to cooperate in each neighbOrhoOd,
a number of farmers uniting in buying
a machine and exchanging work in
managing and running it. There will,
however, be a necessity for employing
some one skilled in managing the
thrasher and running the machine. In
most eastern localities the business Of
thrashing is overdone. So many en-
gage in it as a rapid way to earn
money that the season does not last
long. By the time the machine and
the engine are paid for both are nearly
worn out. The thrashing outfit costs
a good deal more than it used to do.
and prices for thrashing as well as
the prices Of grain have generally de-
clined below paying rates.-American

At the Minnesota meeting of the
State Horticultural society the follow
ing suggestions among others were
made: Native shrubs were worthy of
cultivation. Asparagus should be more
freely cultivated. The bush bean had
not been found profitable. For blight
on potato vines it was recommended
to spray with Bordeaux mixture when
the plants were eight inches high and
once or twice afterwards. Saturate
little balls Of cotton with bi-sulphate
of carbon and place them in the runs
Of the pocket gopher and they will
stop that pest. Thorough stirring of
the ground was better than mulch for
raspberries. Every farmer should
have a quarter of an acre of fruit

will float in the syrup when put into
the box; bore a few gimlet holes in
the float. Set the box on top of the
frames, pour in the syrup in the latter
part of the day, so the bees will not
be bothered By their neighbors. The
float prevents the drowning of the
bees, and should be small enough to
float loosely.
Let the box stay, and when it needs
replenishing, lift the cover off of the
top story or cap, and pour the box
full again and cover up. The bees
will carry the feed to their combs for
future use. I have known more bees
to die between March and May than
any other time. The top stay should
