In Bath county, there was a
good attendance at the Court
house here, Saturday. Ii had long
been evident to the gold-standard
men that silverism was overwhelm-
ingly in the ascendant in Bath
county, and on convention day sill
verites outnumbered gold men ten

verites to do as they wished in the
mass meeting.
Capt. Geo. NJ. Ewing was called
to the chair. He appointed A. w.
Bascom, ID. S. Trumbo, Will 4. Es-
till, Waller Sharp and John w.
Hughes a committee to draft and
report the resolutions (which are
appended to this article). They
did so. j. j. Nesbitt spoke against
the resolution censuring the State
Committee and also started out to
eulogize President Cleveland and
Secretary Carlisle. But he was
not in a congenial gathering for
such talk. They voted down his
motion and adopted the Resolu-
tions committees report by unan-
imous vote. The meeting was en-
tirely harmonious. and adjourned
in good order.

A soubrette's Life.

New York, Aug. 31.-AmonR the
merry hearted soubrettes who amused
the public at one of the Coney Island
resorts yesterday was Mrs. Mile
Azeyedo. just before she went on the
stage she received a telegram from the
Spanish consul in New York, announc.
ing with official brevity that her hus.
band, Raymond Azevedo, had been
shot and killed in Cuba, but when and
where and whether by revolutionists
or royal troops, the dispatch did not
state.
Mrs. Azevedo said her husband was
a mine operator, 81 years old. He was
Cuban, but when she met him in
San Francisco year and half ago he
had been in business there for several
months. She was living in the same
city with her parents, her maiden name
being Helm. After courtship of two
months they were married. Business
called Mr.. Azevedo East, and his wife
came with him. In the winter he was
summoned to the Azores. He left his
wife we'll provided for, and said he
would return in less than four months
Since then Mrs. Azevedo said she bad
received no word from him. Her
funds giving out and having a good
voice, she went ON the stage to support

Astoria, Or, Aug. 31.-John Sven
son, fisherman, was found dead at
Clifton this morning, with a bullet
wound in his breast. At first it was
thought Svenson committed suicide,
but Coroner Pohl's investigation now

murder instead. Svenson was the

woman and two men, whose dead
bodies were afterward found, disap-

Svenson knew something of the MUIR

Points for the Man Who Rents a Farm
Growth of the Swine Industry
Cheap Machinery Is often the

A Point for the Renter.

If any man should be good farmer.
that man should be the one who rents
lands upon which to make his home
move from place to place any oftener
than Is necessary. 1t is not profitable
to do this
Every intelligent farmer understands
how necessary it Is in order to get the
most profit out of the acres of n farm,
that there be some system observed
throughout a series of years in the mat
Ter of crop rotation, hauling out ma
nures, keeping up farm repairs, and a
hundred odds and ends that go unlock
ed after when the renter expects to
stay on the place but one year. As the
country grows older 1t is likely that this
better policy will hold in these matters
IN the interest alike Of the owner Of
the land and of the man who Is work
ing 1t.
According to the Nebraska Farmer.
the point uppermost in mind in this
connection is this: Farmers everywhere
complain, often justly, of high rents
and of the exactness of landlords, etc,
but the landlord complains loudly also
of tax collectors, and of small returns
upon his investment. and all this sort
or thing; and now here Is the point for
the renter of lands-farm fewer acres,
half the number If you please, and dou-
hle the yield.
If you can pay cash rent and are
good farmer, pay 1t, and get the full
benefit Of your superior methods. but If
you cannot pay cash, farm fewer acres
any way and make the yield large and
your landlord will beg you to stay. AS
suggested at the outset. the renter
should be the best farmer in his neigh
borhood. There is scarcely such
thing as a limit to the possibilities of
production within the reach OF the
man who gives his whole time and skill
to a reasonable number of acres.
The average corn yield for, say, ten
consecutive years, Is about 80 bushels
per acre. But so or 60 bushels Is not
an uncommon yield, and 100 bushels is
within easy reach where conditions are
right. Needless to say. that il is I'M
