White House TOnight-Hawaii-
an Treaty Ratified.

Washington, Sept. 13.-President Nc
Kinley is expected to reach the White
house this evening, and will hold an i'm
portant conference with Consul General
Lee. So far as developed, the presidents
Cuban policy consists of tender to Spain
of the good Offices of this government
coupled with an intimation that the
United States will be pleased to see auto
nomy on the Canadian plan granted to
Cuba at once.
General Lee, his close friends assert,
says there is no opening now for an &C.
tive interference by the United States as
the Spanish have released nearly all of
the American prisoners, while congress
relieved the wants and suffering of the
concentrates. American interests have
been destroyed, so there is really no COM
mercial reason for interference. "Cuba
is lost to Spain beyond recovery" Gen
eral Lee says.

Washington, Sept. 13.-"The senate OF
Hawaii has by this time ratified the

A Museum Attraction.

Chicago, Sept. 13.-Putling cigar aud
smiling, Adolph Luetgert, this morning
appeared before Judge Tuthill to begin

Dragging Newly PIowed Land.

When land is plowed for winter
grain after midsummer it needs all the
moisture that the soil has when plowed,
and good deal more, to make good
seed bed. The turning of the furrow
exposes q much larger surface to the
air, besides making hollow beneath,
which also helps to dry out the soil
above it. Early in spring, when the
land is cold, this large exposure to the
air, which is then warmer than the
soil, may be beneficial. Even then we
never wanted to let the furrow lie
more than one or two days without
putting in the harrow to break up
clods formed by the plow, and which,
if they dried il that state, could not
be made into good seed bed that sea-
son. But in late summer if it Is neces-
sary to plow, the rough furrow should
be dragged over as quickly as possible.
1t will press the furrow down, causing
weeds and stubble to begin to rot. The
roller also is help to this. Butitis bet
ter to run the smoothing harrow over
the rolled surface, so as toroughen it.
The compactness of the soil brings
moisture to the surface, and the rough
ened surface makes q mulch which
prevents too rapid evaporation.

An Ideal Meat Pie.

This is a meat pie fit for the gods,
and was favorite of Mrs. Henry
Ward Beecher: Boil half dozen me-
dium- sized, mealy potatoes, mash
very smooth, then pour on them half
a cup of rich, sweet milk, salt and mix
in -four to make dough that will roll
nicely. Roll half-inch- thick layer
for the baking dish, butter and put in.
Cut your nice juicy steak or raw beef
into inch square pieces, and line the
dish. Over this slice thinly one or
two raw potatoes, and if you like, one
small finely minced onion. Salt, pep
per and lard with tablespoonful of
good sweet butter. Add teacup
of water, sprinkle little flour over
the top, and put on the upper crust,
making it at least an inch thick Bake
an hour and half. OF course you
must watch the oven carefully to keep
the crust from burning. A griddle ON
the bottom of the oven, and pan of
water on the CRATE, will add materially.
A thick brown paper over the dish
will be added protection. The oven
should be little slow.

PASSING OF THE MUSTANG.
Wild Horses Are No Longer of Any
Value.

value
The wild horse of Texas has become
one of the greatest nuisances within
the border of the Lone Star State. Not
satisfied with its own freedom the wild
horse has adopted the tactics of the
Apache and of the Sioux and stam-
pedes its brethren. Novelists have
taught us to believe that the wild mus
tang is emblematic of freedom pure
and noble. The Texas ranchman re-
CARDS him as an emissary of the evil
one, for he brings to his ranch despair
and loss.
For the last decade the droves of
horses that run in Texas have been
steadily increasing in number and
strength. Years ago it was worth
while to catch these animals to sell.
Nowadays it Is hard work to sell a
mustang for use even as n COW pony.
Formerly it was the case that there
was no horse for the stockman, the
cattle-grower, like the Texas pony
which had run wild for the first four
or five years of it's life. Lean and
sinewy as an Arab with the endurance
of an Indian and capacity for steady
speed that can only be likened to a
locomotive he was a treasure. Well
seasoned, a COW pony could be ridden
100 miles in single day and come out
of the encounter with fatigue with fly.

Nelson's Famous Order.

Captain Alfred T. Mahan contributes
to the Century an article ON Nelson
at Trafalgar" Concerning Nelson's ia
nous order, Captain Mahan says: Aft
er returning to the deck, Nelson asked
Blackwood whether he did not think
another signal was needed. The cap
tain replied that he thought every one
understood perfectly what was expect
ed of him. After musing a WHILE Mel
son said, Suppose we telegraph that
Nelson expects every man to do his
duty" The officer to whom the re-
mark was made suggested whether it
would not read better, England ex-
pects." In the feet, or, for the matter
of that, to the country, the change sig
nified little, for no two names were
ever more closely identified than those
of England and Nelson; but the latter
welcomed 1t eagerly, and at 80 the
signal which has achieved worldwide
celebrity flew from the Victory's mast
head, and was received with shout
throughout the feet.

Trickstcrs at Agricultural Fairs.

Wherever large numbers of people
gather, persons are usually found who
make living by deceiving the public
They have schemes and tricks innumer-
able that appear to be easy and simple;
but in reality they are quite difficult
and in some cases impossible to sue
cessfully perform. They have wheels
and machines that are doctored to turn
as the proprietor may wish to make
them. They have communicated
negro dodgers to arouse the brutality
in men and boys. They have tented
shows which are disgusting in coarse
ness and vulgarity.
Among the throngs at agricultural
fairs these leeches are out of place
They contribute nothing helpful or
good They do no. add to the attrac-
ton of the fair. They do not bring
desirable patrons. They do not swell
the gate receipts.
They are not patronized by intelli-
gent patrons of the fair. They are not
wanted by honest farmers. They are
Stunned with fear by thoughtful par
ents. Because of their presence, even,
the fair is not patronized by many of
our best citizens families.
