NEW ORLEANS BANK FAILS.
Suspensions Due to Series of Defal
cations.

Suspensions Due to Series OF Defa1-
cations.
New Orleans, Sept. 1.-THE failure
of the Union National bank was an
nounced at 10 o'clock today. Stephen
Chataron is president. The capital is
5000, 200; surplus, $3.50, 900. The
bank failed to clear this morning.
President Chataron closed the bank
without consulting the directors. The
cause OF the suspension is attributed to
long line of defalcations, discovered
when the system of bookkeeping was
changed, and which are said to amount
to 5000, 900. There has been quite a
run on the bank for some time, and
the deposits still in it's charge will not
reach 100000. The failure caused a
considerable run on other banks, and
tonight the clearing house passed q
resolution limiting Withdrawals to
800, SO as to prevent panic. II il
expected that several arrests will be or.
dered tomorrow.

TOPPLED INTO THE RIVER.
Aeavy Section of Wall Undermined

by Waves Collapsed.
New York, Sept. 10.-The Under
mining of the rear wall at the East
river end of Fifty-second street caused
about twenty feet of the street and
about 1 900 cubic feet of the wall, to
cave in and to topple over into the
the river with crash that startled
the neighborhood for several blocks
around. At the very edge of the
enormous pit made by the cave. in
stands the towering wall of cigarette
factory.
The roar of the landslide brought
hundreds of people to the scene, and it
was with great difficulty that the pc.
lice kept the crowd from blindly rush
ing in upon dangerous ground to view
the wreokage The wall which broke
away was about fifty feet from the
river bank to the level of the street
Its entire face, with the exception of a
narrow piece near the south sidewalk,
was washed away, and what did not
slip into the river was piled in cen.
fused mass at the river edge.

upon a boathouse and two skiffs be.

Early Maturity,

The environment of cattle has much
to do with their development and thrift,
and In this position we have still good
deal to learn. Doctor Miles in his work
on stock breeding instances the Kerry
cattle OF Ireland, which, in that coun-
try, having been kept on seanty ra-
tions, do not breed till they are five or
six years old, and in every way are ex-
ceedingly slow In maturing. Some of
these Kerry cattle that were imported
to New England, and put on better feed,
In a few generations bred readily at
three years old. The period for ma
turing was shortened nearly, or quite,
one-half. The early maturity of the
Shorthorn and Hereford Is the result of
continued environment suited to that
end for many generations:

ya1ne of Sweet Armies.

The apple crop in most localities Is
this year large one, and, as usual, in
years when apples are abundant, the
sweet varieties are likely in many
places to go to waste. That they are
not in as good demand as the sour APP
pie is due to their inferiority or sup
posed inferiority for cooking. A sour
apple In pie duly sweetened to take off
the surplus acidity, is, indeed, better
than sweet apple put to the same use.
But farther than this we think the
superiority will be with the sweet APP
pie. Many varieties are richer and
better for eating raw, while for bak-
ing whole the sweet apple is certainly
superior. One of the best ways of
eating baked sweet apples is. with
milk. Sour apples when baked are
too acid for this, and besides. they
break down in cooking. and thus their
juices dissolve in the milk, while the
slices of baked apple retain their shape
and distinctive flavor.

Weeds and Good Farming.

Occasionally a farmer is heard to
ask how the weeds can be killed, but
he does not realize that If by some
rapid process they could all be dis
patched new legions would fill their
places at once IL the conditions which
they enjoy remain. What farmers
need to comprehend is that without
some radical mistake In the manage
ment of their land the daisies never
would have gained such a foothold.
All plants. including weeds, settle and
thrive where the competition for life
Is such that they can enter into 1t pros
per. A good stand of grass leaves no
room nor any hope for weeds. 1t is
not in well-tilled fields that Canada
thistles flourish, but In neglected pas
lures and by the roadsides. In the
contest with the best agricultural
practice they cannot prevail. The rem
edy for weeds is to keep the land busy
with good crop on it, and this means
that the farmer must give persistent
and connected thought to his business.
II the daisies crowd out the grass It
Is because the meadow has been neg
lected and the grass has begun to fail.
and wherever there is vacancy by
the failure of the grass every enter
prising weed finds 4 rightful oppor-
tunity to establish itself. II the farm
er asks, therefore, what will kill the
daisies, there is one answer: better
farming. -Garden and Forest.

Bees will at times bid adieu to home
and apiary and leave for parts I'M
known This occurs more frequently
in early spring, and arises principally
from starvation. They seem to prefer
swarming rather than to stay In the
hive and starve to death A cure for
this may be affected at once, by giving
them a frame of brood and honey from
some other colony, or they may be
brought about by feeding. Swarms
all abseond occasionally. and after be
ing hived will reissue during swarming
time. This frequently occurs from the
cause of mismanagement in hiving
them.
When having swarms, the hive should
be SO arranged as to admit an abun-
dance of ventilation. and in excessively
hot weather the hive should be shaded
When bees swarm they fill themselves
with honey to the utmost limit and in
this condition they cannot stand close
confinement in hives, with the sun
shining directly upon them. Every
swarm thus hived should have n frame
of newly ha tehed brood given them
from some other colony. This is prac-
ticed now and by almost all apiarists,
and is a sure preventive of absconding
swarms.-Colman's Rural World.
