Lord William BeresfOrd.
LONDON. April 3O.-At the fashiona-
bic St Georges church, Hanover square,
at 1 o'clock this afternoon, the
widowed duchess of Marlborough,

coveted of all military decorations in
Great Britain, the Victoria Cross, by rid
ing back into the thick of the fight at
the battle of Illulandie to rescue Ian
cier whom he placed across his saddle
and then cut his way out to safety.
In spite of the statements that the
wedding was to be a quiet ceremony, it

tives of the various colonies, governors
of different colonial positions, officers of
the army and navy and members of the
elite of American and English society of
London and elsewhere.

DEATHS CHOICE.
Peculiar Exhibition Of Discrimipn

Duluth. May 1l.--Side by side on a

Charles AmOry and George Barshaw,
and Il stream of people is pouring in

peculiar accident. This forenoon these
two men and William Helm were in a
row boat on the bay getting logs into
a boom for the Inman Tug line. a
thunder storm came up and at 1913
there was o fash of lightning that
struck Amory and Barshaw, who were
in the two ends of the boat. Helm,
who was in the middle of the boat
was knocked senseless, although unin-
jured. and a moment later, when he
recovered consciousness, he saw Am
ory's body in the water, and grabbed
him, holding on till help came. Bar
shaw's clothing was stripped from him
in various places as neatly as If he
had done 1t himself. Both shoes and
stockings were taken off, and II Of
the shoes was torn into shreds.

Sheep In New Zealand.

Mr.. Robt. Cobb, of New Zealand, who
has recently purchased in England
some Romney Marsh sheep "a large
mutton breed for export to New Yea
lond, gives the Kentish Express Eng
land IN interesting summary of his
views on the sheep growing part of the
world. They are of interest to Ameri-
can breeders for the reason that the
strongest competition with America IN
the English markets, both in mutton
and wool, viii come from that far-off
land. Mr.. Cobb states that up to ten
years ago the only means of getting rid
of their surplus stock was to boil the
carcasses down and ship the tallow.
Tallow dropped in price until it did not
pay to export it., and the consequence
was that the price Of sheep fell until
they anticipated having to sell the car
cases at from twelve to eighteen cents
each. About FIVE years ago the system
of freezing the a for export was
introduced, and the result has been a
decrease of stock until now they re
ceive from S2.5 o to SO per head for the
carcasses. At the average price they
are getting in London markets, this
makes about four cents per pound net
for the mutton. They get three clips
| of wool from a sheep before the carcass
is shipped, although the demand has
increased to such an extent that they
are now slaughtering yearlings for
shipment.

rails. The price is not great,-why
should not everyone avail himself of
the opportunity? The total cost of
the necessary working outfit in order
to grow good. garden plants. need not
exceed Sfty cents. And If only q
single sash 3x6 feet were used, the pro-
duct cared for and sold at ordinary
market prices would return from s. to
IS gross. the number of sash can be
increased at proportional expense un-
til the limit of the demand is reached.
True it is, that a late spring frost will.
once in a while, defeat our plans, but
it is better to err on the side of safety
and not plant the general crop until
May 25th or June lst. The greatest
difficulty in the way here, however, is
the strong winds-they are more to be
dreaded than drought. AS regards this
problem, it is hoped that before anoth-
er season passes we may be able 10 de-
wise some cheap and efficient means
for preventing injury to the young
plants at the time of setting in the
field. Some work of this kind was
done during the pas! season, brt l
dare not as yet advocate any of the de-
vices used. One line of the work, TO
be taken Ut next year, is to endeavor
TO find some annual plant the seeds of
which can be planted early in the
season, and which by the first OF June
will be large enough 70 act as a protec-
ton t. the young omato plants set in
the lee of it.
If n is to make a business of grow
ing tomatoes, or vegetables of any
kind, it is better that a permanent
wind-break be provided than t. depend
upon any mechanical device or annual
plant.
The difficulties here are few com
pared with some portions of the couu-
try where insect pests and the plant
diseases combine forces to ruin the
crop. So far, we have no diseases to
combat, and the insect enemies are in
a very meagre minority.
What more is necessary for success?
Surely nothing, except interest. We
must in some way prove to the people
of the State that there is in horticul-
ture a profitable field awaiting their
united efforts to develope. One man
in fankton, one N Madison, one in the
Black Hills, and another in Vermillion
can do much to set the people ON the
right track, but they cannot succeed
unless we all take hold and help. We
help when we buy our trees and plants
from them, but we do fully as much
when we prove TO them hat a given
fruit can be made a success in a given
locality, because, by showing to the
people of a locality that this or that
plant is successful, we create a local
demand for the plant as well as its pro-
duct. Therefore, l repeat, we need a
local gardener in every town, some ore
to create and to supply a demand for
fresh, homegrown vegetables-toma-
toes, if you like.

The Nest and the Chickens.

w. Cook, an English poultry man,
says a hen that sets herself often
makes a better hatch than when a nest
is made for her. In summer a hedge
root is a favorite nesting place, and
succeeds best because the ground is
very dry and the nest is round shaped
and hollow. The hen can get off az
any side and therefore seldom breaks
the eggs. The heat Of the hens body
creates a little warm moisture as the
damp below is drawn up, and the hol-
low form insure that the eggs will
keep well together and be all properly
warmed. The hen turns the egg about
twice in "a hours. From a nest made
in this way out of a turf a bigger batch
of chickens will be Matched than from
any nest made of straw. From the 18th
to the 10th day the eggs may be can
died" to find out the unfertile ones and
If 4 or 8 hens are set at the same time,
good ones may be set under one
hen fewer and a new set of eggs given
to the hen hat was left without.
After the eggs had been sat on Is or
16 days the hen may leave them an
hour or more without the chicks inside
getting any harm. When the weather
is not very warm, a little fine hay or
even a few feathers may be beaten into
the bottom and sides of
the nest before setting. A nest
box lined with wheat straw is
not a desirable form of nest as it is apt
t o get too fat in the bottom and the
eggs will not keep so well together.
More eggs may be Matched under the
same hen in a nest made of dry turf
than in any other way.

Dover, Del, May 1.-THE general
assembly of Delaware adjourned sine
die at 3 o'clock without choosing a sue
cessor to ex-senator Higgins. although

was legally elected. The matter will
probably be taken TO the United States

Tunnel (Dem.), l.
During the day the Democrats fill
clustered, with the object of prevent
ing balloting, and when the state
house rang out the hour of 3 and
sounded the death knell Of the Iegisla-
tive session OF 1895, the clerk was In
the midst Of n roll call on a dilatory
motion made by a Democrat.
AS soon as Gov. Watson Dem.) who,
by reason of the fact that he was
speaker OF the senate before his eleva-
ton to the gubernatorial chair, upon
the death of Gov. Marvil, presided
over the joint session, announced the
sine die adjournment. Speaker of the
House McMullin CRep.) arose and
formally declared Henry A. Dupont

This action had previously been
agreed upon by the Republican lead,
ers. The Delaware Legislature is com
posed of q representatives and . SEN

when Watson. by virtue of his posi-
ton as speaker of the senate. sue
ceeded to the governorship upon the
death of Gov. Marvil, one month ago
the number of senators was reduced
10 S, and therefore there were only q

stituted a majority.
On the other hand, the Democrats
and Gov. Watson claim that the law
distinctly declares that the speaker OF
the senate shall become governor
Therefore, If Mr.. Watson withdraws
from the senate he eases TO be

Quently loses the governorship. The
senatorial question is likely to occupy
a large mount of public attention fol
months TO come. Whether the gov,
ernOr has the right to appoint is a dis
puted question. If he has, the ap'
pointment will he only until the next
legislature. which meets in January
1896, unless sooner called together by
the governor. This latter contingency
is not probable, however.

To many people Spring and its duties
mean an aching head, tired limbs, and
throbbing nerves. Just as the milder
weather comes, the strength begins to
wane, and "that tired feeling" is the
complaint Of all.
The reason for this condition Is
found in the deficient quality OF the
blood. During the winter, owing to
various causes, the blood becomes
loaded with impurities and loses its
richness and vitality. Consequently,
as soon as the bracing effect OF cold
air is lost, there is langour and lack OF
energy. The cure will be found in
purifying and enriching the blood.
