RoME's BOMB EXPLOSION.
The Pope Worried Lest Demonstra-

ClOQ De maze against Cno at cam
Rome, March 9.-One of the men in
jured by the explosion of the bomb in
front of the ChamberIof Deputies died in
the hospital this morning. The pope is
deeply interested III learning the circum-
stances of the explosion, and has directed
that an inquiry be made into the details
by the attaches of the vatican for his own
information. His holiness is anxious to
keep thoroughly informed of the develop
ments OF the present anarchistic activity,
and in the event of political crisis
fears that the vatican itself
may be endangered. 1t is stated that
the holy father is seeking
from the government guarantees of the
safety of the vatican in any event.
Anarchists have spread throughout the
city, and particularly among the work
ingmen, thousands upon thousands of
circulars prescribing the bomb as the
only and infallible remedy for the ills
from which the poorer classes are suffer

BRITISH MAssACRED.
The Expedition Against the Abors
Meets With Disaster.

Calcutta, March 9.-Advices from the
British column commanded by Capt
Maxwell, which is operating in Assam,
against the Abors show that they have
sustained serious losses at the hands Of
the tribesmen and are retreating on Sa-
dfya. A detachment of troops
two hundred strong, which left Sadiya to
meet the retreating column was also de-
feated in an encounter with the Abor
tribesmen and forced to fall back. All
the dispatches received from the scene of
the conflict agree that the expedition of
Capt. Maxwell is in a critical posi-
tion, and reinforcements are being hurried
forward with all dispatch. Though it is
UNDERSTOOD that Capt. Maxwell's command
was nearly 5000 strong, the Abors have
recently been very strongly reinforced and
probably greatly outnumber the British
forces.
THIRTY MEN MAssACRED.
A dispatch received from Gowhatty,
the chief town of Assam, says that de-
tachment of thirty men, armed with ri
ties, and four officers, acting as an escort
to train of ammunition forage and food
supplies for the Gowhatty garrison, was
surrounded by large party of tribesmen
at point distant from any source of any
reinforcements, and every man of the de-
ment was killed. The little detachment
used their wagons, etc, as Notifications
and fought the Abors for two days and
two nights, but finally succumbed to
vastly superior numbers and were mass
AGREED.
The main column of the expedition
against the Abors is represented to be in
a very dangerous position, and it is
feared that the command may fall victims
to the thousands of savage and we'll
armed tribesmen before the reinforcing
parties now en- route are able to join
them.

A PLUCKY ENGINEER.

Fortunately Engineer Ben Camel of
the passenger, saw the wild demon ad-
vancing rapidly upon him. He we'll knew
the fate but stuck manfUlly to his post
until he saw the engine within few feet
of his train burdened with prescious hu-
manity. He screamed to the fireman to
Jump for his life and as both struck the
ground the two engines came together,
telescoping the passenger engine. Both
engines were demolished and the loss to
property is heavy. No one was injured
except a colored porter on the Pullman
sleeper, who had his head bruised.
Trains were delayed about four hours.

been caused by the steam throwing open
the throttle valve. The engine started up

Crimson Clover.

Crimson clover is plant the value
of which can hardly be overestimated,
especially as an agent in reclaiming
wornout lands and in keeping up the
supply of nitrogen in lands not worn
out The fact that it has become estab-
lished SO far north as Saratoga county,
N. Y; that it has maintained itself for
three years, and that it is actually
spreading in poor land, is most graf
flying and very suggestive, in the opin-
ion of The Country Gentleman, author
ity for the following:
It has been cultivated most success
fully and proftably farther south, but
it has been generally supposed that ii.
would not thrive so far north as this.
While it may not always survive orr
severe winters with their extreme and
sudden changes Of temperature, as it
does farther south, where it commences
its growth in the fall and continues it
in the spring, this instance shows that
it either does sometimes go through our
winters successfully or else it comes to
maturity from seed with exceeding rap
idity. In either case it indicates that
farmers in this latitude may avail them
selves of the aid of this valuable plant
in preserving and renewing the supply
of nitrogen in their soils and in supple
menting their supply of fodder plants.
In confirmation of the ability of this
plant to perpetuate itself here we may
state that few tufts of it grew in an
Albany county garden last season, and
without any Intervention on the own
er's part it has appeared again thisy year
and is now in flower. These plants are
evidently from self sown seed, but
whethef the seeds terminated last sum
mer or this spring we are not able to
say.

THE BEST sILOs.
These Are of Wood and May Be Round or
Square, but Must Be Deep.

Square, but Must Be Deep.
The value and economy Of the silo
have passed the stage of discussion.
Advanced dairymen everywhere have
built or are building silos. AS to mate
rial used in construction, the question
was long ago settled in favor of wood.
The only points remaining to be consid-
cred are whether the silo shall be round
Or square, single or double lined inside
Or whether built in the barn or as an
outside structure. The ideal shape is
that of a cylinder, but round silo in
the barn is too costly in space, while a
square or parallelogram fits into the
corners of the barn and utilities all the
space. Some of the wooden silos are
lathed with the new channel lath and
plastered with the best Portland CO.
ment. Some claim that good board
lining on the first sheathing, well paint
ed with gas tar and gasoline, is prefer.
able to plaster because it is cheaper,
will last as long and can be repaired
when necessary quite as cheaply. The
usual lining consists Of two thicknesses
of boards, breaking joints, with coat
of tarred paper between the thicknesses
of boards
The silo lining and the outer coat
. which protects the silo frame from the
weather are usually sufficient to pre-
vent the freezing of silage. In the south
there is no danger of freezing, and the
silo lining is sufficient, except that the
sides exposed to the weather must be
battened to protect the framework.
Strong pressure is one of the first es-
sentials in the preservation of ensilage,
and this can be attained cheaply only
when the silos are deep. To insure the
best ensilage the depth should be at
least "a feet, and 80 feet is better. The
great pressure secured with depth ex-
cludes the air by closing up the spaces
in the ensilage and by forcing it strong
" against the walls
Wood lined silos ought to be SO con-
structed that all lumber against which
the ensilage does not lie may be kept
too dry to permit Of decay, while the
lining itself should become dry as fast
as the ensilage is removed from it.
These conditions may be maintained ih
all comparatively dry climates by
adopting modes of construction which
insure very thorough ventilation, both
by the silo pit and within the silo walls
Immediately behind the lining.
The cheapest floor consists Of pounded
clay. A coat of cement is frequently
applied to the floor The best silos have
doors almost continuously from the floor
to the top of the wall The form of roof
is not important. It should contain
ventilator.

Lime on the Farm.


Lime is one. of the most useful agents
Of the farmer when properly used 1t
acts directly as plant food in soils Of
low fertility Its chief value, however,
lies in its indirect effect upon soils nat
urally rich in vegetable and mineral
compounds. It hastens the decay of
organic matter and causes the nitrogen
of humus to become more quickly avail
able. 1t assists in the process Of nitrifi-
cation. 1t liberates potash from insolu-
BILE compounds, thus increasing the store
of active plant food, and it promotes the
formation of compounds with alumina,
which have the power of retaining ana
monia, potash, etc. Any materials like
wood ashes, which contain large amounts
of lime, would act in practically the
same way as lime Muriate of potash
is less valuable than lime as an indirect
manure, its effect upon other mineral
soil ingredients is not so marked, while
it does not materially hasten the decay
Of organic matter. The addition of ma
nure to the soil does increase the activ-
tiles therein by promoting fermentation,
which, in turn renders soil constituents
more active, says Professor Voorhees, in
letter to Rural New Yorker.
