AGRICULTURE.

After harvest NOW your stubble once
or twice il necessary, to prevent weeds
ripening their seeds. This will greatly
benefit your grasses, if done with judg.
ment, and will help much in keeping
the farm clean. Be just as careful to
invade the weedy fence corners. This
must be done methodically.
If the wheat ground is put in firm
and fine condition, and then allowed to
stand until the weeds start, these can
be cut up with the cultivator and killed
Then the wheat sown Immediately after
will have grand chance.
Try cultivating the corn and the pc
tatoes little longer. If no great bene.
fit results to these crops, you are at least
making plant food available for the flu.
ture wheat crop, and are keeping the
weeds down. Shallow disturbance OF
the soil can do no harm at any time.
If not prepared with the best of ways
and means, at least strive to have your
manure piled on low ground, spread
that the cattle will run over it; save the
urine by all means, if possible. Sprinkle
surface of pile, and stable floors, also
with land plaster; sprinkle the heap with
water a little now and then. Thus
treated it will not fire fang.
When properly cared for, the value of
the cornfodder is fully equal to the half
the value of the crop of grain it has
borne. Under needless ways of hand
ling it requires no figures to measure its
real value. Still. thousands will con-
tinue to waste it.
Some of our mistakes are: We do not
fight the weed; we do not make more
thorough work in preparing our seed
beds for cereal grams; we do not pro-
vide good, warm quarters for our ami
mails; we do not take care of our tools;
we neglect repairs of our buildings until
they are past repair.
1t has been the experience of many
that horse or COW will fare much better
when fed upon our ordinary stalk fod-
der only than if fed upon corn only.
Even when fed in the barnyard upon
fodder, horses have come out in better
condition than when stabbed and given
corn supplemented with straw or ordi-
nary hay.
1t suggests waste and ruin to see fields
of fine corn with the fodder dried to a
crisp or frost bitten, ready to be blown
about or to drop off with the first hand
ling by the tardy farmer. Do not let
othe- work prevent you from gathering
and protecting your fodder in time. If
necessary little extra money will be
we'll spent upon it.
The cry of the agricultural classes in
all the European countries is as great or
worse than here. They suffer from the
same competition, and are demanding
Governmental aid in some shape. In
our country we must diversity our pro-
auctions more, and then the Govern
ment must retain and increase our home
market by shutting out competition.
Further increase of population will help
us somewhat

YOU.

MI could have my dearest wish fulfilled.
And take my choice of all earth's treasures
too,
And ask from heaven whatso'er l willed,
I'd ask for you.
No man I'd envy, neither low nor high,
Nor king in castle old or palace new;
I'd hold Golconda's mines less rich than l,
If l had you,
Toll and privation, poverty and care,
Undaunted I'd defy. nor fortune WOO;
Having my wife. no jewels else I'd wear,
If she were you.
Little I'd care how lovely she might De;
How graced with every charm, how fond,
how true,
Zen though perfection she'd be nought to me
Were she not you.
There is more charm for my true, loving heart
In everything you think, or say, or do.
Than all the Joys of heaven could eer impart,
Because it's you.

dangerous ways to the place now
called New Haven, where many of
them settled.
But Master Frothinghame, and
perhaps score of others, with Roger
Ludlam as their leader, came on still
further to found settlement called
in the Indian tongue Umguowa.
The goodly store of pelf these
weather. colonists brought with them
gave them some comforts which the
Plymouth settlers lacked. But clear
ing lands for tillage, building rude
but substantial houses of logs and
stones and opening roads through the
forests, fell equally to their lot. Their
earlier lives of ease had ill-ftted them
for such unaccustomed work, but
freedom to think as they liked and to
worship as they pleased compensated
them for toll and hardships. One
ness of purpose and congeniality of
interest made the social life of the
small community very pleasant. 1t
was like one large family, with Roger,
the good man who worked with them
on week days and preached to them
on Sundays, for its head.
One of the most remarkable women
in the little colony was sweet Mistress
Frothinghame, who for love of her
husband and the hope of future good
to her little sons, came willingly
from a home of great luxury to the
unknown perils of life in wilderness.
If she ever repented the step she had
taken, no word of regret passed her
lips, and her struggles as the years
went on to make up to her growing
boys the advantages of education
they had lost, are matters of record.
But brave wife, devoted mother and
industrious housewife though she
was, she had in some inadvertant way
given offence to one family.
1t might have been because her far
thingales and kirtles, made and re-
made by her own deft fingers from
the store of raiment she had brought
with her from England, had style
and fashion that no other ones
clothes acquired, or it might have
been a nameless something in her
which showed that she never forgot
her noble extraction, but whatever the
cause, Mistress Jonas Grief and her
sour-visaged husband had long ceased
to think of her with affection.
Good Master Frothinghame, with
his head full of projects for the bet
terment of the colony, knew nothing
about this slight break of harmony.
In fact so great was his abstraction
from common affairs that unless re-
minded he would leave home in the
morning all unconscious that he had
not broken his fast. 1t was to him
that Roger Ludlam and Jonas Grief,
an elder, came one Christmas morn
ing, as he worked in the field, with

The DUPLICATE KEY Was FOUND.
Thrown Away by the Escapes al
Seventh and G Streets.
1t Was Made by Parties on the Out.
side and Thrown Into the Jail
yard just Before the Break.

As stated in the Record Union yester-
day. Frank Soden and William Williams,
two of the men who escaped from the
County Jail on Saturday evening. were
captured at New Hope Landing by q
Constable on Monday afternoon. Yes
terday Sheriff Johnson and Deputy Nc
Donald went down to Walnut Grove,
whore the prisoners were turned over to
them and brought up to the County Jail.
This leaves only four Of the escapes still
at liberty, and the probability is that
some of them will be captured, if not all.
The key with which they escaped from
the Jail was found yesterday at the cor
Eer of Seventh and G streets by a man
who was cutting grass between the curb
ing and the sidewalk. and taken up to
Jailer Beckley. 1t is Of brass and about
four inches long.
There is no longer any doubt that the
prisoners had assistance from the out
side, as one of the escapes has confessed
to Beckley that the key was thrown over
the wall from the alley with a package of
dope" few minutes before the break
occurred. He also said that several keys
were made before one was received that
would tit the lock. and that flat piece
of wood was introduced into the lock
and turned till the marks of the wards
appeared on it, and was thrown over the
wall to the party on the outside, who
made key to correspond. If this be so,
the sooner the Supervisors provide new
locks for the outside doors the better, in
order TO prevent q general Jail delivery.
The lock is on the inside OF the door, SO
that no one from the outside can get at it
and the keyhole does not go through the
door.

PHILIP OPPENHEIMS PLEA.

He Claims That the Court Should Not
Have Ordered the Income Paid.
Philip Oppenheim has made his return
to the order of court to show cause why
he should not be punished for contempt OF
court for not paying over to Louisa OPP
penheim the income OF the property in
his custody.
In the answer he recites that at the fl
ing OF the complaint the court granted a
temporary injunction against his dispos-
ing OF any OF the property or coupons.
On September IL, 1895. the court, in the
absence of his counsel, and at request OF
counsel for plaintiff, ana Emmanuel,
modified the injunction by ordering
Philip to pay the income accrued and to
hereafter accrue from all property In his
hands TO plaintiff. Defendant Philip filed
notice OF motion to have the order OF
Septem Der 18th vacated on the ground
that it was improvidently made and was
without authority of court, and on Sep
tember 9th the order was vacated and
the original injunction so modified as to
read, $50 as not TO affect the income OF
the property"
He claims that the court had no right to
make the order, because the alleged cause
| of action of Emmanuel goes behind the
deed OF trust, seeks to set aside the decree
OF distribution and dispose of the prop
erty on lines entirely different from the
! deed OF trust, aud until the court has de-
termined finally what the respective in
teresls of the parties are in the property
| il has no right to dispose OF any portion
thereof, interest or principal.
If the suit to vacale the deed of trust
and vacate the decree of distribution sue
ceeds. the Interests Of tile parties will be
entirely different from their rights and in
terests as named in the deed OF trust. He
asks. therefore, that the order to show
cause be discharged and that the order
made on October I'D. requiring him to
pay over the income OF the trust property
III his hands, be vacated.

AN ENJOYABLE EVENING.
Entertainment Given Last Night
pVfhTan Hall

Entertainment Given Last Night at
PythIan Hall.
A most enjoyable entertainment was
given at Pythian Hall last evening, the
room being fully filled, under the
auspices of the Knights OF Pythias and
the Rathbone Sisters.
The programme, which was an excel
lent one. was as follows: Opening re-
marks, j. II. Liggett; duet by the Misses
Guthrie; vocal solo, Miss Gussie Jackson:
The Sealing Islands and the Miner
Glacier" Rev. j. Z. Herrick; vocal solo,
Miss Lena Griffin; either solo, Miss Ida

After the programme was rendered.
Rev. A. {. derrick gave al interesting
lecture on Venice, the City of the Sea-
which be illustrated with excellent
stereopticon views. The statueof ST. Theo-
dore and his crocodile from which ami
NAL II is said that the idea of the gondola
took form, the winged lion OF St. Mark,
the DOge's palace. the pigeons that come
every day to be fed in its court, tho
church OF ST. Mark with its domes. the
foui bronze horses which are supposed to
have been made 400 years before Christ
for Alexander the Great, the bridge of
sighs. the Rialto and the Grand Canal.
and old blind Dandolo preaching the
crusade, were all shown and explained.

The character drawing which the dramat-
list has done is very vivid. To those who
have read the book this fact must neces-
sarily stand out boldly. The single hint
of the novel, during all the life OF the
mesmerio power over Trilby, is enlarged
into boding, ominous threat, put into
actual words and frequently repeated.
and the relations of Little Billee and the
heroine are finally made to be determined
by Svengali's exercise Of power. Accept
this scheme, and anyone may well be
satisfied with Potter's work. The en-
ployment OF hypnotism as the funda-
mental principle OF play, forms the key
of the construction Of the play.

More Fun at the Tent.

Another crowded tent greeted the per-
formers of the Vivian De Monte show
last night. The seating capacity of the
tent has been greatly increased by the
removal of part of the benches and the
substitution Of orchestra chairs. The
size Of the orchestra band has also been
enlarged. In fact the entertainment
seems to be broadening it's scope in
every way and bids fair to blossom into

ence. The day offices of the physicians

A lively runaway took place yesterday
morning liz the alley between l. and NJ,
starting near Fourth street. A horse at

speed up the alley. Near Seventh street
he collided with an ice wagon, which
flung the cart against the fence and
turned 1t upside down.

out Of the alley into Seventh street, mar
rOWly escaping running down a man and

and bucking and squealing as he ran,
turned down Seventh TO NJ, and up NJ to-
