makes the clothes more clean and Ger.

has been made, and the difficulties van
quished one by one, so that to-day the

every iron-clad in its navy, steel reser~

naval maneuvers lieutenant In the

perfect control he had over his alrshipy

to rise to the height Of two miles, he
opened the valve and allowed the bali

balloon had only about 1000 feet Of

France is by no means the only No
ton that is devoting scientific study 10

much attention to the business, and
has developed captive balloons that
can soar to a great height and make
accurate maps of the surrounding
country.

KANSAS RAILROADING.

Attica Tribune: During the year
1894 there were 157 cars OF wheat, thir-
ty-three of corn, forty-one Of stock, and
thirty-fye Of other freight shipped from
this city.
Rear Admiral A. Alexander, Of Her
Maiesty's Navy, accompanied the re-
ceivers of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe on their trip as far as Albuquerque
and then went south from there to I'll
Paso with General Manager Frey. 1t is
assumed he is here in the interest Of the
English bondholders. He attended the
reception rendered the receivers at Albu-
querque and Las Vegas in full uniform
md was much admired by all.
The news was received at the Rock
Island general offices of the burning OF
their depot at Pierce Junction, small
station a few miles north Of Horton. The
fire was started by defective tlue. The
building and contents, including the
agents household goods, we're destroyed
with the exception Of a few articles OF
express and freight. A box car was sent
to Pierce Junction and will be used I'M
til new building can be erected. A
new supply Of tickets and office furni-
lure has been sent there.
Captain ]. B. johnson has sent to the
governor his resignation, to take effect
March 1, as Judge of the Shawnee coun-
ty circuit court, and will give his entire
attention to his duties as special master
in chancery for the Santa Fe company,
The circuit court was created about four
years ago to relieve and assist the dis
trict court. During three and one-hclf
years the court has disposed Of 1000
cases. The Office Of special master IN
chancery, held by Judge Johnson, re-
quires the hearing Of all disputes that
a .ise between the receivers for the Santa
Fe company and all other parties. 1t
also requires the examination of COM
pleto monthly reports from the receivers
covering the entire Santa Fe system and
all it's branches from Chicago and st.
Louis to Albuquerque, Ne" Mexico. In
this Office Judge Johnsou's duties now
demand the work OF two assistants.

Double Cropping Poor Land.

The reason there is not more double
cropping of land is because the soil gen.
eraly is not rich enough to warrant it.
1t pays in the garden, which on most
farms contains more fertility per
square foot than anbe foundanywhere
else. 1t will pay with field crops if care
is taken not to crop exclusively, and to
SOW alternately some leguminous plant
that will increase fertility instead Of
lessening it. Glover Is generally sown
with some grain crop, This in one
sense might be termed double CROP
ping, as the grain and clover grow to-
gether until the grain is harvested. But
this is certainly not exhaustive to the
soil. AS a rule, it is best to have some
crop growing ON the soil all the time.
When its surface is bare it is exposed
to greater losses than when it is COW

The Galenn hotel at Galeua is de-
stroyed by fire. The contents and
building are total loss. 1t was the
first hotel built there.
It Is claimed by those in position to
know about 1t, that since the opening
Of tho irrigation ditch, near Denamore,
Phillips county, several springs of water
have broken out on the bank of the
Solomon river. II is the theory Of the
gentleman who gives this information to
the "North and Northwest editor Of the
Atchison Champion, that after the ground
is thoroughly soaked, which he said will
be the case from the large number OF
irrigation plants now being put in by
the farmers tributary to the Solomon
river, there will be enough water in that
river to run all her grist mills, and that
after it is thoroughly soaked it will then
have to find an outlet, and its natural
outlet is the Solomon.

STOCK AND FARM.

Three inches OF snow, all at one time,
covered the ground in Cheyenne county.
Her farmers, who have fall wheat sown,
say they have never seen it looking bet
ter at this time Of year.
Bushtou Star: N. B. Davis has COM
pleted his reservoir, erected his windmill,
and has just got the new pump to work.
The plant consists Of twelve-foot steel
mill, a four-inch Frizell pump and big
reservoir. 1t is calculated to irrigate
fifteen acres. This is the first plant to
be fitted up in this neighborhood on SC
large a scale, and the results will be
closely observed by our farmers.
An Atchison ITEM The prospects for
a good wheat crop in northern and
northwestern Kansas are increasing dali
ly. Much more snow is falling in that
section this winter than in eastern Kan
sas, and reports received here announce
that another snow is falling in that Sec
ton. @. NJ. Rathburn, superintendent
of the Missouri Pacific, who recently
made a tour of the state, heard many
encouraging reports as to the condition
of wheat.
State Veterinarian Pritchard visited
Mound Valley, where he had been called
to investigate a peculiar disease which
was rapidly killing off the horses. He
says the disease is infectious, and while
he does not name it, he says it is fol-
lower Of the well-nown epizootic or in
Auenza. 1t is prevalent in several parts
of Labette county, and while DIR. Pritch-
ard did not establish quarantine, he
ordered strict surveillance of the infect
ed districts.
The freedom with which hogs and
sheep have come to the Kansas City,
Kans., market, the past month, has been
surprise to the trade. Tho number Of
both in the country was generally sup
posed to be lighter than year ago, but
in the face OF this general belief there
were $4,000 more hogs and 1884 more
sheep received here during January than
the same month last year. The av-
erage weight OF hogs sold here during
January was ten pounds lighter than
in the same month last year. Packers
during January purchased 4S,497 more
hogs and 1925 more sheep than in the
same month in 1894.

unlikely that the balloons thus SUP
piled embody in them the best results
attained by French researches. A great
deal of what has been accomplished is
supposed to be kept concealed for the
benefit Of the French Government.
Regular schools Of ballooning have been
established at Meudon, near Paris, and
at other places by the French War De
partment and important discoveries
are known to have been made. But
they are jealousy guarded. Now and
again the people Of Paris see cigar
shaped airship rise slowly from the
heights of Meudon, sail with even mo-
ton over the city, and then, bearing
to the right or left, swing back in
great circle many miles in diameter to
the very point from which it started,
descending to the earth as easily and
lightly as a bird settles down upon u
branch. This is the latest balloon per-
fected by the War Department and it

Tibetan MOnasteries.

OF all the wonders of the Tibetan re-
ligiOn none is so striking as the album
dance of monasteries. These great as
semblages OF religious houses are full
of monks, or Lamas, and the marVels
associated with them are truly Surpris-
ing. Their number is amazing; they
literally swarm in the inhabited por-
lions of Tibet, aud traveller journey
ing through the country passes mOnas-
terry after monastery in endless sue
cession.
SO numerous are they that Mr.. Rock
hill, the indefatigable American eX-
plorer of Tibet, tells us that, while. the
population of Eastern Tibet is but
small, one-fiRth of it consists of Lamas.
He also says that, in his journey from
Jyekundo in Tibet to Tachien-lu, on the
frontier of China, n distance Of 900
miles, he passed thirty-siX large monas-
teries, five of which contained from
1000 to 1000 Lamas. Many mOnas-
teries in other parts are equally large.
The great monastery of Kumbum.
near the Lake Koko Nor, contains 1000
monks. Chiamdo, which is one of the
chief towns in Eastern Tibet, and con-
tains 12COO inhabitants, seems to be
half composed of gigantic monastery,
and CAPTAIN Bower, in his recent jour-
ney through Tibet, passed the large
town of Riuchi, which seemed to him
to be all monastery. The wealth of some
of these monasteries is astonishing
All the Year Round.

Perhaps, after all, the newspaper
Judgment as to the value Of rich mans
estates may not be so far out of the
way, Notwithstanding the popular be-
lief that the newspapers are prone to
eXaggerate in these matters. After
the death of Jay Gould the newspapers
kindly took u hand at the business Of
posting his books and striking a bal
ance for the benefit of their readers.
The result of this arithmetic was the
concurrent journalistic opinion that Mr.
Gould had left about $72,00O,0O0 and
some odd cents Now it appears that
the newspapers did not place too large
u value on the estate, but, according to
the figures of Appraiser Mcclure, UNI
derestimated it by nearly $4,000, 600,
the actual value being SS0,0G4,5S0,70,
instead of $72,O00O00. If you see it
in the newspapers you may set it down
as a careful statement, based on an in
vestigatiOn as to all the ascertainable
facts Generally speaking, you might
bet on it.
