The WAYS OF PROVIDENCE.
WHILE etravel long the pathways
w OF this probation Ian


WHILE the travel long the pathway
w OF this probation Ian
We meet with circumstances
That we fail to understand
Some men we see fly up'ards,
On the wings OF fortune mountin,
While Providence keeps Others,
Better far, forever standin
In tine midst OF tribulation,
On the loves earthly landin
In way that, think our best,
Reaches over all accoutin.
Every day we met with Dives.
Full of wickedness and might,
Depressing some poor Lazarus
At morning, noon and night.
Yet he's clad in gorgeous purple
And the finest kind o. linen,
While his ears he closes tight
To the beggar's pitaous pleadin,
And keeps addin to his treasure,
So mighty an exceedin,
Till it seems as if his power
Had no endin or beginnin.
And if this world we're placed in
Was the final end of livin,
And after death to mortals
No further state was given
We'd be right in thinkin Providence
Had missed its calculations.
But when we recolect that some day
There'll be changin places
We jes' keep right on pulling steady
In contentment's easy traces,
Feeling sure that at the ending
She'll even up the rations.

silver of Glass in the Flesh

A peculiar experience in surgery
transpired at Sunoury, Pa, recently.
Arson Wolverton, a brother of Con-
gresham S. p. Wolverton, of this place,
had a piece of glass extricated from
his arm that he received in an accident
five years ago by being thrown against
a glass door of a car. The piece of
glass measured four inches long and
five-eights of an inch wide at one end,
tapering to sharp point at the other.
Although suffering more or less pain
ever since, the glass was not discovered
until the point was forced through the
surface just below the shoulder by his
being again jolted against the side of a
car, causing a wound in which was
found the glass.

that there were 26 strikes in that state,
of which three were successful, four
succeeded in part and 10 totally failed

Reaping the Whirlwind.

TIE Detroit Free Press utters this
truthful remark:
The riots in the Pennsylvania coke
region are another case Of "sowing
the wind and reaping the whlrlwind."
The riotous strikers are the cheap
foreign workmen imported by the
coke manufacturers to compete with
Americans and scale down their pay,
at the same time they were beseiging
Congress for a duty of ~ per cent. 80
that they could maintain the lofty
standard of American wages. They
are Huns and Slavs who drove the
American from his job by Offering to
do his work at q lower rate. And
now that they have become sufficient
~ familiar with the custom of the
country to know that protectionists
only pay such wages as they are COM
PEELED to, they are seeking by resort
ing to the rule Of the mob, to force
an increase Of their wages.

The next Campaign

Congressman Newlands was iteir-
viewed at Winnemuccs Sunday by
the Silver State and expressed him
self as follows:
He had hoped to be able to stay
over at Reno and address the people
on the issues of the day, but.hs was
unavoidably detained one day longer
in San Francisco than he had figured
on and because of the urgent neces-
sity of his presence in Washington he
was anxious for the Fall campaign, 30
he could tell the people from The
stump how the two old parties had
been weighed in the balance and
found wanting. He said the present
political situation is this: The great
majority of the Democrats in both
houses OF congress favor the free
coinage Of silver, but the minority,
acting with the Republicans, are able
in conjunction with the president to
defeat all favorable legislation; that

in 1896-tbe gold party, intrenched
in the creditor states OF New England
and the Middle States, and the Silver
party embracing the sentiment Of

learned that tie tariff has nothing to
do with falling prices and the conse-
quent depression OF all lines Of bust

AN EVER-BEARING ORANGE.

Mr.. Simms, proper founder of this
valuable fruit, says it is true Citrus
vulgaris found wild in the Apopka
hammocks, without the bitter of the
common wild oranges of our hammocks.
The tree has the characteristic of be-
ing in fruit the year round, and is
without doubt cross-the sour orange
with the sweet-and of holding the
fruit ON the tree for months after they
are fully ripe. The original tree has
now both green and ripe oranges, and
they are picked ripe, juicy and deli
cious any day in the year.
The fruit is more even in size and
thinner skinned than the old one, with
less rag and very few seeds, and fol-
home use every garden from Tampa
! to Brunswick should possess it. II
surely must prove valuable as market
variety Only to think of it-a ripe
orange picked from the tree before
breakfast the year round! A guarantee
is given by Mr.. Simms that the origi
nal tree was found in the month o
August, full of bloom, green and rip
fruit. M d. Lindley, in Tampa (Flor

OUR DAIRY NOTES.

Minnesota has dairy school for
women.
London milkmen color their milk
with annatto, to make it look rich
The methods of adulteration increase
all the time.
b 1.-The Farmers Voice" is of the
opinion that COWS kept on thin lands
give milk that contains less butter
fats than the milk of the same COWS
would if kept ON fertile lands. Who
knows?
A Vermont farmer who raised his
own COW feed, except cotton seed meal,
and kept strict account, found that
his butter cost him 1873 cents per
pound.
% Too few dairymen can pick out the
best COW in their herds with perfect
assurance that they are making the
right choice. Every man who makes
a business of keeping cows ought to
know from tests just what his cows are
doing for him.
One reason why short course in a
dairy school will never be sufficient
for the purpose is that it will not drill
the students with enough thorough
ness in the absolute necessity Of clean
illness. This is the first and last thing
in butter or cheese making.
The National Dairy Union should be
encouraged in it's fight against fraudu-
lent butter. The editor was present at
the Chicago meeting when the Union
was formed, and it is composed of the
best men IN the business Every dairy
man should belong to it.
A Cincinnati paper relates in great
detail how chemist of that city has
invented an artificial milk on which
q cream rises that can be churned and
make butter. There is future before
the man that invented that story, but
we fear the temperature will be toe
high for milk and butter to keep well.
Wisconsin has over 700, 900 cows and
these give over 1000, 900 gallons Of
milk day. The present drought has
been the cause of an immense loss to
the dairymen of this State. A greater
part of that could have been saved II
preparations for such an extended dry
season had been made by sowing soil
ing crops early in the season. -Iht

BIG RAILROAD MORTGAGES.

The fact that the Southern Railroad
Company, successor to the Richmond
and Danville system. has filed in
Knoxville, Tenn, a blanket mortgage
for $120, 900, 900 has led to much con-
troversy in Southern newspapers con-
corning the colossal sum involved.
But the truth is that the present ten
dency of railroads in the United States
is not merely to consolidate their in
terests, but also to consolidate their
debts and to replace the bond issues ON
the separate branches or divisions by
blanket mortgages, so-called, the figures
of these blanket mortgages seem
prodigious when regarded by them
selves, but in reality they are no larger
than the sum of the various separate
mortgages which they replace.
The $4,000, 900 mortgage of the
Southern Railroad Company seems I'M
usually large until compared with
other mortgages executed by other COM
panies. The per cent. general mort
gage OF the Atchison, Topeka, and
Santa Fe Road covers $3.50, 900, 900.
The Chesapeake and Ohio first and
second mortgages aggregate $40, 000,-
900. The Central Pacific has two
mortgages of $25, 900. 900 each, and the
Southern Pacific first mortgage of
$31, 900, 900. The general 4 per cent.
mortgage of the Philadelphia and Read
ing Railroad is for $40.000,000 The
first mortgage of the West Shore Rail
road is for $50, 900, 900, the Jersey Cen
trail has one for 1856, 10000 and the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy sim
gle mortgage for $27, 100000. The
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul has
Oh one of its divisions mortgage for
1926, 900, 900. The Chicago and North
ern Pacific has first mortgage for the
same amount, and the Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific an extension mort
gage for $50, 100000. The Mexican
Central, from Paso del Norte to Mexi-
co city, has first mortgage for 500,
5000, 900. The Northern Pacific Rail
road, now in the hands of receivers,
overtops all others with consolidated
blanket mortgage for $16O, 1000, 900.
Che Pennsylvania Railroad has one
mortgage for $27, 100000, the Mis-.
souri,, Kansas and Texas one for $40,
900, 900, and the st. Louis and Iron
Mountain two mortgages for $25, 900,
