How 1 Made $1,000

BY not sowing Salzer's seeds! That is
what a jolly farmer said MS he entered
our snnctum. How is that? Why,
says he, Salzer's seeds not only grow
but they produce enormously. Had I
planted a few acres more of his oats,
wheat, corn, p%otntoes, grass and clover
seeds, ] would have had to double the
capacity Of my barns; that would have
cost me $1,000. 1t is a fact that if you
want big, rousing farm, grass and vege-
table crops, you mustsow Salzer's seeds.
If You Will Cut This Out and Send It
with &c postage TO the John A. Salzer
Seed Company, La Crosse, Wis, you
will get free u simple of Grass and
Clover Mixture and their seed cata-
logue. GNU

No. Complimentary to English Women.

Alphonse Daudet was not exactly
complimentary in his references to Eng
lish women, of whom he met many in
his recent trip to perfidious Albion,
mot only is the English woman not
handsome in features" he says. "but
there is nothing seductive in her phys
ical form, and, moreover, she is an ut
ter stranger to elegance and good taste.
The English woman whom you encoun-
ter in Paris, with her fiattened down
hair and huge feet, differs in no single
particular from the English lady of
rank whom you meet in salons, on the
turf and at the play. 1t gave me real
thrill Of pleasure ON reaching Paris to
behold our pretty Parisiennes, with
their fascinating toilets. New York

Tides In tho Atmosphere.

Distinct tides in the atmosphere, cor
responding to those Of tho sea and pro-
duced twice daily by lunar attraction.
have been traced by NJ. Bouquet de Ia
Grye in the barometric records Of sta
tions removed from powerful local dis
turbances. The recorded observations Of
Brest, st. Helena, Cape Horn, Batavia
and Singapore give positive evidence Of
regular ebb and flow according TO the
moons position. The effect is slight,
but measurable, the greatest atmos-
phoric tide ut Brest being shown by
movement Of one-quarter Of an inch in
q water barometer, which is equivalent
to about ono fiftieth Of an inch in the
mercury barometer. Tho tide seems to
bear about the same ratio to the weight
Of tho atmosphere that the sea tide bears
to the depth of tho ocean.

A Lively Little Joke, but 1t Cost Him His
Baggage.
steamship passengers frequently re-
sort to practical jokes to relieve the mo-
notony of voyages, said a retired sea
captain yesterday, land while the
pranks, as q rule, are perfectly harmless
they sometimes have boomerang effect
Three years ago we were crossing the
Atlantic, and both the owners and my
self were exceedingly anxious to nuke u
speedy trip, as rival liner had the
week before lowered the record held by
our company. On the third day out just
about dusk the cry of Man overheard 7
rang through the ship, and q hurried in
yestigation elected the information that
several of the passengers had heard
splash, followed by piteous appeals of
Help, helpi Save mel The engines
were stopped, and the steamer put about,
close watch being kept meanwhile for
the drowning man. A half hour was
spent in cruising about without results,
and we started ON our journey under the
belief that the poor fellow had gone to
the bottom. The inquiry that followed
proved puzzling. No one was missing,
and we came TO tho conclusion that q
stowaway had committed suicide.
"The next day, however, an explana-
ton came. We had a ventriloquist
aboard in the person of q very smart
young man, who was too tickled over
the success Of his joke to keep the secret
'tThen tho laugh was ON him. AS he
had caused q serious delay and much
annoyance l notified him that had
made an official entry of the circum-
stance on my log and the loss Of time,
and that ON approaching shore would
detain him until a sufficient guarantee
had been put up that he would answer
in court to reply to a demand for finan-
cial restitution. talked of $50, 900 be-
ing about the penalty under the govern
ment mail contract, and 1t is needless
to say he spent the balance of the voyage
ON tenter hooks. He disappeared before
we docked, leaving his baggage bo-
hind. San Francisco Post.

WEDNESDAY. JULY "a, 1896.
A SAMPLE CASE.

An Innocent Man Convicted on Circum
stantial Evidence.
"Did I ever know of an innocent mar
being convicted on circumstantial evi
denceP" repeated Detroit lawyer who
was smoking a cigar in hotel the Other
evening Eyes, know of case. In
fact, was the prisoners attorney, 1t
happened in Missouri about 20 years ago
and was one Of my first cases.
"It was this way" continued the
lawyer as he got comfortably settled
down. "a farmer had horse stolen,
and the animal was followed for ten
miles and found under a shed in the
suburbs of the town whEe 1 lived At
the same time they found1a man in hid
ing. He refused to give any account of
himself, and when charged With being
the horse thief he did not deny it. 1t
was not until he was put on trial in the
higher court that / was retained. He
stoutly declared his innocence and had
several men ON hand to prove his good
character, but he wouldn't account for
his whereabouts on the night the horse
was stolen. / not only felt sure of his
guilt, but had no show to make for him
and wasn't disappointed when he was
convicted offhand. As to the 'circum-
stantial' part, they proved that he knew
the horse and had said he felt tempted
to steal it; also that he was seen that
evening within mile of the farmers
barn. Horse hairs were found on his
trousers legs, and he was in hiding
near the horse. Everything pointed to
his guilt, and the jury made quick work
of him.
"And wasn't he guilty." asked one
of the group.
''Not bit of it After he had been
sentenced for three years his wife came
to me and wanted me to advise him to
tell the truth. She knew it all the time
He was out that night with two other
men to rob store, and they got away
with a wagon load of goods. He was set
to watch, and while thus serving was
run into the shed by the men in pursuit
of the horse thief Tho latter got away
and the other was captured. To give his
gang time to get away he let himself be
taken to Jail and was ultimately tried,
convicted and sentenced. He had nc
more to do with the horse than ! had. !"
"And what did you adviser"
tHis best interest, of course He'd got
three years for stealing horse, but il
he owned up to tho store robbery he'd
get from 10 to Is. told him to shut
up, and the advice was so good that
got $50 for it. Yes, circumstantial evil
denee sometimes convicts an innocent
man, and if you are ever on jury it
will be we'll to remember this fact -
