Chicago, June 20.-President Debs, OF
the American Railway Union, said to-day
that steps would soon be taken to form
triple alliance between the Knights of
Labor, the A. R. q. and the Farmers
Alliance. The triple alliance thus formed
would control, he said, 100000 men. A
convention under the auspices of the
Illinois State Federation of Labor will
be held at Springfield, ILL.,, on July 2, 3
and 4. Then the proposed union will
probably be affected. President Debs
stated that there was little doubt that the
alliance would be affected without oppo-
sition.
The platform which will be adopted by
the Springfield convention will contain
the following planks: Compulsory edu-
cation; direct legislation making eight
hours legal days work; sanitary
inspection of work shops, mines and
homes; liability of employers for injury
to health, body or life; abolition of con-
tract system, on all public works; abolition
of the house sweatening system; munici,

Milwaukee June 20.-At the opening
session of the National Travelling Mems
convention congratulatory kilograms

creased forty per cent, but that there was

FRUIT IS FRUIT.
Extremely Low Crop Percentages for
Peaches and Apples Little
Better.

Washington, June 20.-The report of
the statistician of the department of agri-
culture for June says that a glance at the
percentages of condition of peaches on
June is sufficient to show how disastrous
the season has been thus far. The ex-
tremely low figures are construed into
practical failure of the crop. The con-
dition for 1894 in the states producing
the commercial crops, as compared with
1898, makes poor showing for this year,
as follows:
New Jersey, 1898, lo4; 1894, IS; Della
ware, 1898, 90; 1894, Is; Maryland, 1898,
93; 1894, 81; Virginia, 1898, 63; 1894, Is;
Georgia, 1898, 80; 1894, 7; Ohio, 1898, "a;
1894, 43; Michigan, 1898, Sc; 1891, 20; Cali
fornia, 1898, SO; 1894, S5.
The best prospects east of the Rocky
mountains are in New Jersey and Michi-
gan. The condition of apples is some
what better than that Of peaches.

NEBRASKA DEMOCRATS.
Conservative and Sensible Silver

Representative Bryan the Favorite for

DECLARING FOR THE COINAGE
of silver at the ratio 16 to l, to indorse
the Chicago platform and recommend to
the Democratic state convention the
nomination of Representative Bryan for
governor.or senator or both. This is the
sentiment of the representatives of the
administration wing of the party. They
say they would stand by Mr.. Bryan for
the move provided he would declare for
the Chicago platform and that then he
might put his own construction on the
platform. According to several silver
leaders it is quite probable that the
CHICAGO PLATFORM
will be indorsed, for they hold that it is
properly interpreted by Mr.. Bryan and
that it can not intelligently be subject to
such construction as is given it by
President Cleveland. 1t is known that sew
eral silverites are not at all anxious to
openly split with the administration. The
committee on resolutions has been select
ed in advance and a draft of the
resolutions has already been prparod.

SHEARING THE SHEEP.
Timely Hints About Increasing the Value
of the Wool, Etc.

Timely Hints About Increasing the Value
of the Wool, Etc.
Sheep shearing is now in progress in
different parts of the country, and the
following, taken from an exchange,
will be read with interest:
The best authorities on wool are the
buyers themselves. l have sold my
lots of wool. for nearly lifetime, to
the same factory, but | have learned
that what they want is wool clear of
burrs and hayseed and other trash.
They claim that unequal feeding, re-
ducing the flesh of the sheep, makes
an uneven strength of fiber and I'M
even cloth as well, injurious to manu-
facture. They want the fleece de-
lvered unbroken that it may be sorted
by experts to suit the fneness of the
cloth. | try to please purchasers and
conform to their will, not mine. Yet
the sheep are better for this.
| make platforms for the shearers of
large useless doors, which are better
than fixtures or elastic planks which
aid the sheep to tangle the wool in
turning over. The tags are cut off be-
fore the fleece, and thus its fracture is
avoided. In consequence, l get about
three cents per pound more than care
less breeders, and that three cents is
clear profit. When the coat is off, it
is spread on the doors and done up in
three layers, rolled closely together
and tied once with strong Irvine.
This is better than two ties, which
may loosen the wool in crowding it
into the sacks for transportation, the
approach to ball being best. That
nothing may be wasted, the tags are
given away or washed on the shears
and put into separate bags and labeled.
The tags are then worth as much as
the full fleece.
Every sensible man takes care in
small savings. They are pure profits,
and generally make the rich in all
lands. Trash and burrs break the
continuity of the wool and allow cold
and rain to injure the sheep which are
clothed with wool by nature because
they are sensitive to climatic changes.

AMONG THE POULTRY.

FEEDING too much corn will produce
apoplexy.
IT is good plan to put sitting hens
on the nest in the evening.
The breed that lays great many
eggs does not produce the best table
fowls.
HIGH feeding and excessive fat will
cause even naturally non sitting hen
to sit.
CROWDED hens cannot do as well in
egg production as hens that are not
crowded can.
FRESH eggs are heavier than old
ones, and that is one reason why sell.
Ing eggs by weight is sometimes advo-
Gated.
CHICKEN meat is the equal of any
meat that comes on the table, and it
costs less to produce it than it does to
produce either pork, beef or mutton.
For turkey raising, says writer in
Farm and Home, ! set hen on 10 eggs;
they all Matched and lived by feeding
hard boiled eggs and light bread
crumbs the first two weeks; then
cracked wheat. They were kept per
fectly dry.

SMALL CHANGE.
In the Family Exchequer and in the Camera
of Social Life.


Small change is indispensable in go
ing about city. To have only five
dollar bill in ones purse when riding in
an omnibus or car is almost as bad as to
have no money. One requires small
change. and the thoughtful husband
supplies his wife with bright ten-cent
pieces and shining quarters just as reg
ularly as with fresh greenbacks. A wo-
man prefers new and fresh money to
that which is greasy and soiled. if she
can have her choice, and certain good
man, known and loved in large circle,
always makes point of bringing home
to his family the wherewithal for do
nestle expenses in very dainty shape.
He is deservedly favorite.
Small change is as valuable in the
commerce of life in other departments
as in that of the exchequer. There are
people who can talk extremely well on
learned and serious subjects, but they
have no small change. The quick jest
and easy repartee of the drawing-room
are not for them. Helplessly and hope
lessly, with gloom settling over their
sit by while less gifted people chat and
laugh and have good times The trou-
BILE is they are destitute of small change.
This puts them at disadvantage in
society where there is not time for
homilies and treatises, but where every
thing is froth and foam. The airy but,
tertiy fight of their neighbor confuses
and disturbs them. Their forces must,
so to speak, be drawn up in order. and
prepared to charge on the enemy,
horse, foot and dragons. All this takes
time and thought, and the enemy is up
and away, skirnishing triumphantly
elsewhere. before the unlucl<y opponent
has arranged his line of battle. BY all
means let those who would succeed in
society carry about the small change of
witty conversation. Bazaar
