the Illinois campaign reached here yes

Ills, who set Nov. 16 to make the trip
and carry the horn to Canton. The horn
Is 80 feet long and has u bell six feet in
diameter, and 1t requires about dozen
men to blow II. The men are laborers,
two of them being carpenters, two tin
ners and two painters. 1t was a con-
dition of their undertaking that the
citizens Of Decatur would contribute a
purse Of $1,000 in event an equal sum
were raised by the men while on the
march to Canton. But the men have not
had smooth sailing. They declared that
up to the time they reached IndianapO-
lis they had good success In selling pic
tures of the horn and in other contribu-
tions. but that since that time they have
not made expenses. The hospitality
shown them has been generous, with but
very few exceptions. They have been
met by bands and drum corps and other
organizations in the states through
which they passed. The men soon after
reaching the city went to the Mckinley
home and presented the horn to the
president-elec who received the WIS.,
itors very cordially. On account OF the
incessant rainfall no demonstration was
made

|PRES. LTT'TLE'S NO
The West End Railway Re-
fuses to Sign Agreement.
DecIinatiOn to Even Treat With
the Citizens Committee.
Public Sentiment the Force Factor 10 the Case
NO Concessions Yet Secured.

Boston, Dec 30.-The committee ap-
pointed at the Faneuil hall mass meet
ing Monday night called on President
Little of the West End Street Railway
company to intercede for the men who
struck last week.
President Little. in reply to the COM
mittee virtually refused to settle the
West End controversy by employing all
the men who took part in the strike. The
committee, In view OF this. has sent q
letter to the executive committee Of the
West End company praying for fur
ther hearing. The committe assembled
at city hall and prepared the following
plan Of settlement to be presented to
President Little:
THE discontinuance of the employ
ment of new men.
2-Reinstatement of former employees.
3-That committee Of the men be re
ceived for the purpose Of making Just
agreement dealing with the permanent
relationship of the corporation to Its
employees.
To the first request Mr.. Little stated
that yesterday the company had engaged
only 10 men, three of whom were old en-
ployes; also that up to Monday evening
they had employed only 1S9 new men;
1872 former employees who sought re-em-
ployment have been refused for various
rasons; 10S former employees have not
asked to be reinstated. Among these
last are the members Of the supreme
council
To the second request Mr.. Little stated
that they had re-employed 2474 Of the
old hands. There were also 490 men who
did not leave the company's employ, but
remained faithful to the company. He
said there would be no discrimination
against men re-employed so long as their
service was satisfactory.
Regarding the third request, Mr..
Little stated that he had never de-
ciined to receive a committee Of the
men. While here has been no written
agreement between the men and the
company for 10 years, the former have
been treated in accordance with previ-
Gus agreements. He declined to deal
with the men not now in the company's
employ, but told the committee he was
ready to meet a committee Of the men
who were in the company's employ. In
view of the fact that Mr.. Little's posi-
ton Is a substantial refusal to re-employ
the men who are still out the committee
has voted to ask for hearing with the
executive committee of the West End
Railway company at the earliest possi-
| BILE day.

GOOD ROAD HINTS.
Some Things That Are Essential to Per-
manent Improvement.

Some Things That Are Essential to Per-
manent Improvement.
Until we have radical change in the
system of highway laws and highway
management much improvement would
result in the condition of roads if the
commissioners and overseers would see
to ii that the side ditch on the upper
side of the road is opened to proper
depth to carry all the water in the
spring and sluices put across at proper
intervals to let the water away from
the road, and especially that the road
bed be made higher than the ditch
and not wide ana nat as in many
cases they are. Many and many Il rod
of road is nothing but mudhole, and all
because of careleSsneSs in not lowering
the side ditch and raising the roadbed.
Again, many rods of road are some
times made muddy by not making
water bars across the road to turn the
water off, and so it is allowed to follow
down the entire slope for a long dis
tance, when a bar of suitable height
would prevent all and the public would
be better accommodated by few min
1utes' work of the everseer. But we
shall never have good roads, in the
strict sense of the term, until the rocks
and stones which now lie dormant
waiting the action of some master mind
are broken into small fragments, and
each year the time now devoted to
working is utilized in drawing
plentiful covering of crushed stone.
In other words. when our roads are
Blacadamlzed and the water turned off
and kept Off, then. and not until then,
will our roads be permanently i'm
proved. = G. w. Guernsey, in Orange

THE FARMING WORLD.
THE TREES WE PLANT.

Grander Monuments Than Those Carved
from Dead Granite
If he be 'sbenefactor of his race who
causes two blades of grass to grow
where only one blade grew before" how
much more must he benefit the world
who plants that which shall continue
to grow in beauty and in strength, and
become of still greater benefit to the
world as the years go oni There is
something grand, and something sad,
in the planting of tree. 1t is grand
because it is benefit bestowed upon,
and labor performed for, those who
shall come after us; it is sad because
our own eyes shall not see the results
of the work we do.
And who may know the unmeasured
good the planting of a single tree may
do? AS time goes on, and the sun
smiles upon it, and the clouds weep
over it, and gentle winds caress it, 1t
shall spread out its leafy hands to-
ward heaven as in prayer, and be to
every heart "a thing of beauty and a joy
forever" The birds shall build their
nests among its branches, and fill the
palpitating air with melody; beneath
its cooling shade, when summer suns
shine warm, the laugh of children shall
resound; the sturdy tread of manhood
shall be heard and the tottering steps
of the aged shall loiter there. Per-
haps, upon the soft, green carpet be-
meath it's shade fond lovers shall plight
their troth; the happy birds shall
laugh out beneath its trembling leaves,
IN very joy to be alive, and love. Per
haps, too, beneath it's shade, grown
wide and deep, there may be dug, some
day, a grave, in which shall lie, in dream
less sleep, the beautiful and good. Then
shall the tree ward winters storms and
summers heat from off that grave, and
bend as in perpetual benediction,
above the silent dead" And so,
through the chills of many winters and
the heats of many summers, the tree
we plant to-day shall tremble in the
wind and glisten in the sun; while
generations come and pass on to return
no more, it shall year by year renew its
vigor, and live on.
Grander than any dead granite is the
more lasting monument of living
tree: sweeter than any chiseled words
is the rustling of its leaves; better than
the lifeless formula: Here lies the
body is the fact that somewhere there
lives tree that some hand. now per-
haps, alas for it! only dust, planted
long. long ago, that the living might re-
joice in its beauty and worth.-Orange

inch of shank below the lower bud.
Count off three buds and detach, when
your cion will appear as shown on the
right of Fig. 2.
Setting the Cion.-Place the curved
edge of your knife over the end of the
stub, splitting at right angles to the
body of the tree. Split with one blow of
the mallet if possible, the curved edge
of the knife being calculated to make
a clean cut before the bark begins to
tear. Drive out the knife, and, revers-
ing, drive the wedge lightly into the
cleft. Now bear down on the handle
enough to hold the cleft open, insert
your cions so that their inner bark will
either match with or cross that of the
stub, leaving the lower bud little
above or on a level with the sawed sur
face, and drive-not pull-out your
knife. The cleft ready for insertion of
the cion is seen in Fig. 2.
WaNing-Have your wax about the
consistency of soft putty and your
hands well oiled with fresh lard, SO
that it will not stick. Roll up sufficient
wax to cover the stub, draw the wax
with one motion over the cleft, shutting
in the lower bud. Now cover the other
cleft, and if you have used wax enough
to exclude air and moisture success will
be sure.
Grating WaX--To make a wax that
will not crack in winter nor melt in
summer, melt one part beeswax and
one part tallow together, and five parts
white resin separately; pour together
while hot, stir briskly and dump into
tub of lukewarm water whose sides
and bottom have been previously well
creased with lard. Grease your hands
with the same material and work your
wax until it is golden yellow and will

THE MUCH-ABUSED CROW.
What He Does for the Farm and the
Farmers Crops.

What He Does for the Farm and the
Farmers Crops.
If farmers would make a study of
natural history and its bearings on
their property-the relation of hawks
to their hen coops, for instance-there
would be better paying crops.
The ''Year Book of the department
of agriculture tells about COW black
birds and what they eat. About 1890
of their stomachs have been examined,
and of these 2,25S contained food. The
birds were killed in &c states. Forty
eight per cent. of the food was animal,
As per cent. vegetable, and four per
cent. was mineral. The blackbird has
a variety of things it eats.
THE animal food,' says the report,
consisted of insects, spiders, myria-
pods (thousand legs), 'crawfish, earth
worms, sowbugs, hair snakes, snai1s,
fishes, tree tOadS, Salamanders (newtS),
lizards, snakes, birds eggs, and mice"
To these might have been added young
birds, fish cast up by the tide, minnows
caught while swimming in shallow wa
ter, and probably meat and carrion of
various kinds. Most of the animal food
is, of course, insects. These constitute
46 per cent. of the total, the other two
per cent. being the larger things, like
mice. The animal food is taken most
lY in the summer. In the winter the
food is mostly vegetable matter. The
insects the bird kills more than make
up the damage he does, especially as
his nest robbing appears to be only
an incidental habit not often INDUCED
in. a large flock of the birds would
of course destroy lot of grain. Some
$4,000 would eat about 5000 pounds
day, but they would consume as many
insects, which would more than de-
stroy the amount the bird does.
