Intensive Gardening.

George M. Powell, of Newtield, N. j.,
has been experimenting to prove that
many poor people in crowded city
lots might produce fresh vegetables
for their tables. He dug a hole
eighteen inches square and a foot
deep, and into this put half bushel
of manure and mixed in the top SOIL
Here he planted a tomato plant in
bloom, a spadeful of dirt being TAX
EN- up with the plant. Then the soil
from the bottom of the hole was put
in a circle ridge about the plant, so
that the plant stood a shallow
earthen cup. Into this cup kitchen
Stops were poured daily. The vine was
fastened to wall as it grew. This
one plant grew more than 100 feet of
vine, supplied more tomatoes than
the average garden, and yielded an
abundance of fruit two months after
tomatoes had disappeared from sur
rounding gardens. He claims that a
box or barrel of earth on a roof will
supply a family with cucumbers,
squash, melons, etc.

The Home Woman

We often wonder why it is so many

it ever occur to the mothers and wives
that when the husband and father has
been away all day long he comes
home hungry for. something besides
mere business. He comes looking for
his companion the home-maker. Let
us take the fohowing rule and live
by it and make ourselves excellent

word" home-woman." Let us be de-

The home woman can never be real

Wrong Sacrificing.

All, mothers it is simply a verifcation
of the biblical quotation, ''as We SOW
so shall we reap" A wise one says,
and we voice every word uttered:
"Children are often punished for
faults when the punishment should
properly fall upon the parents. When
the mother finds herself relegated to
the chimney corner, let her, like the
old minister, who said the blame was
his when he lost the power of holding
his members attention, look back up
on what she has done and is still do
ing, and then ask herself candidly
whose fault it is.
'"The fact that she has always sac

consideration?
'Their structures of her are true.
She is old-fashioned. She has been
so bent on giving them their own

the doings of the world, that she

Salisbury also commented favorably
upon the treaty, and among other
things said:
But there is still greater advantage
in the existence of the arbitration sys-
TEN, and that arises from the prev
aence of popular institutions in most
Of the countries of the world, where
there are ministers who govern and
members OF Parliament and others who
,criticise them, and this body generally
contains one class Of whom l desire 10
speak with all respect. They are
known peculiarly as iingoes. They are
very patriotic. and their warmth OF
patriotism sometimes clouds their APP
probation of details. But they exist in
all countries, and you will always
find that one Of the principal subjects
which procedures the minister is how
to furnish an account Of the matter
which is sufficiently soothing to this
very eXcitable portion OF his critics.
1T is my belief that well working
arbitration system will prove an in
valuable bulwsrk to defend the minis
ter from such criticism. 1t would be
impossible to accuse him of trifling
with the honor of the country or sur.
rendering substantial advantage if he
could say that he had submitted the
matter to an impartial tribunal and
unfortunately the decision bad heen
against him. 1t is impossible not to
feel that ministers could negotiate

The treaty, Lord Salisbury believes

ALLEGED DYNANlTER FREED
The Charge Against Edward J.

NO EVIDENCE OFFERED BY CROWN
Prosecutor Unable to Prove
Him Guilty.

Associated Press Dispatch by Special Wires.
London, Eng, JAN, 90. The Grown
prosecutor, to-day, withdrew the charge
of conspiring to cause a dynamite
explosion brought against Edward }.
Ivory, alias Bell" saloonkeeper of
New York, who was arrested at Glas-
gov in September last, and Justice
Hawkins discharged the prisoner.
Shortly after the opening of the pro-
ceedings this morning the solicitor
general, r. b. Finlay, Q. O., NJ. p,
the prosecutor for the Grown, an
nounced that be had definitely ascer-
tanned yesterday that the delivery OF
the explosives at Antwerp occurred
after Ivory left that place and that
there was no legal evidence that the
prisoner was cognizant of their
delivery. Therefore it had been decided
not to present evidence thereon. Con-
tinuing, Mr.. Finlay said in regard to
the other evidence against Ivory that,
while he felt that the correspondence
which had fallen into the hands of the
police and the movements OF Ivory per-
mitted the gravest suspicion. there was
no evidence justifying tho Grown in
asking for his conviction on felony
bNC
he did not propose to continue the
prosecution OF the prisoner.
Justice Hawkins thereupon addressed
the jury, saying he was convinced that
the solicitor-genera had adopted wise
course. as, in an English court, doubt
| full evidence could not be pressed
against any one and the step taken by
| the Grown was, therefore, the ont
which would have been expected. Aftei
complimenting the police upon the in

difficult duty Justice Hawkins directet
the jury to return a verdict of no
guilty, and, in ordering the discharge
| OF the prisoner, the judge added hi
earnest advice that Ivory should dis
sever himself from doubtful company
hereafter, which might otherwise bring
him into the greatest peril. In con
clusion JuBtice Hawkins advised Ivory
strongly to look carefully at his future
Ivory bowed smilingly in return AM

The monthly statement of the Bureau
of Statistics, issued Saturday, shows
that during the month of December.
1896 the excess of exports from the
United States over imports was $50,
27l, 093. For the entire year the ex-
cess OF exports over imports reached the
enormous total of 1895, 1922, 1874, being
largely in excess of the showing made
during any preceding year.
And yet in the face OF these epcour-
aging results which were brought
about by the freer trade conditions Of
the Wilson bill, we have CongreBs
in session and an administration soon
to be inaugurated, both of which main
tain that the country needs a prohibit
tive tariff in order to cut off foreign
trade, and should depend for it's bust
ness exclusively upon the "home mar
