BRYAN FAvoRs INTERVENTION.
Holds That We Have the Right on
the Grounds of Humanity.

the Grounds of Humanity.
washington, April 1S.-The 155th ami
yersary of the birth of Thomas Jefferson
was celebrated here tonight by a dinner
given at the National Rifles armory under
the auspices of the National Associat ton of
Democratic Clubs. About 400 representa-
tive Democrats from all sections of the
country were present, including many SEN
ators and representatives. The guest of
honor was W. j. Bryan of Nebraska.
Mr.. Bryan responded to the toast of
"Thomas Jefferson" and was greeted with
enthusiastic cheers, and throughout his
speech there were many demonstra tions.
In the course of his remarks he spoke
feeungly of the Cuban situation, declaring
that if the United States assumed the
responsibility of deciding that the cruelties
and barbarities of the warfare on that
island should cease no nation in Europe
could protest without defending the things
which we condemned. He said that any
man had a right to prevent the erection
of a slaughter house in his own yard, and
that we, who live side by side with those
who suffer, could not refuse in the name
of humanity to insist that those who had
manfuly resisted the tyranny of Spain had
earned their right to self-government.
In addition to our right to stop the war
on humanitarian grounds, he declared
that we had right to insist that any gov
eminent at our doors should be of such
a character that one of our ships would
not be blown up while under its protec-
ton.
He congratulated the Democratic party
also upon the fact that recent events had
indicated it from a charge persistently
brought in the North that it was not
patriotic party.
He paid glowing tribute to Gen Fitz-
hugh Lee, which set his hearers wild with
enthusiasm, and in concluding declared
that the enemies of the Democratic party
could no longer revive the issue of the
civil war, but must meet the democracy
upon the issues which arose in time Of
peace.

the Spanish premier, is quoted as saying
that he considers President McKinley's
message to be 'deplorable, and he is SAID

Nitrogen From the Air.

Sir William Crookes, the British SCI
enlist, thinks we are within 30 years Of
the end Of our natural possibilities in
wheat culture. In order to increase the
average yield Of wheat per acre and
keep up with the increasing demand
more heterogeneous fertilizer must be used.
Sir William believes that the ordinary
sources Of nitrogen-guano nitrate Of
soda, eto-will not suffice As to the
legumes, which assimilate nitrogen from
the air and convert IL into available
form for plant food, he predicts limit
to the period Of this process, and does
not find the remedy for the threatened
trouble in them, but there is an unlim-
tied store Of nitrogen in the atmosphere,
and Sir William s idea Is that this shall
be manufactured by the quick processes
of electricity into artificial nitrates, and
should electricity from coal and steam
engines prove too costly water power,
such as that from Niagara, can be util.

excellent material for securing uniform
distribution and perfect adhesion in q
rosin lime mixture. In preparing this
mixture it is necessary to make stock
solution from the following formula
Pulverized rosin, pounds; concentrated
lye, pound; fish oil or any cheap ami
NAL oil except tallow, pint; water, 8
gallons.
Place oil, rosin and gallon of water
in an iron kettle and heat until rosin is
softened. Add lye solution made as for
hard soap. Stir thoroughly. Add re-
mainder of water and boil about two
hours or until the mixture will unite
with cold water, making clear, amber
colored liquid. If the mixture has boiled
away too much, add sufficient boiling
water to make five gallons.
For use one gallon of this stock solu-
ton is diluted with 16 gallons of water
and afterward three gallons of milk of
lime or whitewash added. The rosin
mixture is in reality a liquid soap, and
the addition of the lime turns it to a
hard soap which remains suspended in
the water in minute particles. The
poison, one-quarter pound of paris green
or other arsenic, is then added, and the
PARTICLES of poison adhere to the finely
divided soap PARTICLES and are thus dis
tributed throughout the mixture In
minute and uniform quantities. The
soap solution is very adhesive, and thus
a thin film of poison is made to stick to
every part of the leaf which is touched
by the spray. The application must be
made by hand power machine, either a
strongly made knapsaok or a barrel
sprayer, as no horsepower machine will
do the work thoroughly enough or care
fully enough upon cabbage and cculi.
flower.
This rosin lime mixture received its
first test upon cabbages in 1896, though
it was used with perfect success against
cabbage worms upon smooth leaved tur-
nips in 1895. Not a living worm could
be found upon the patch three days after
the spraying, and the protection was
excellent even to the end of the season,

The tests on caulifower have not been
