How to Raise and Keep Onion Sets.

o to Raise and Keep onion Sets,
Get the ground ready and In good
condition just as early ms practicable
In spring. Take the onions which you
wish to raise sets from. and set In rows

tween them to clean out weeds and
loosen up the soil. Sometimes little
hbers will grow out from among the
sets which grow pretty fast and look
like onion seeds. Those we cut off
with a pair Of scissors. When the
stalks begin to yellow up nicely. which
will be about the last Of July In our
climate. then cut off the sets. Don't
shell them. Leave them just as they
are cut off In a round ball. Carry them
TO a dry place, spread them out on n
floor. leave them alone until nearly
freezing weather. Then take boxes

with paper, put the sets In, then draw

Chauncey Depew's Jokes.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
Two Of Chicago's newspapers, the
Times-Herald and the Tribune. have
been engaged In controversy for several
days past over the origin of n Of the
numerous jokes of DIR. Chauncey M. De-
pew. We do not know what the joke
in question Is. but this is the way in
which the Chicago Journal called its
contemporaries to time in the matter:
I'VE hope the Times-Herald and the
Tribune won't break any bones In their
erudite controversy over the origin OF
one of DIR. Depew's That
the doctor referred the anecdote to n

head was a peculiarly graceful conde-
scension on his part. A person who
had only heard Chauncey Depew speak

was Moses when the light went out?'
Such a person might be pardoned for
believing the doctor wrote the Arabian
Nights 'Sinbad' and all. together with
Ben Bolt Marching Through Georgia
and the Pentateuch, so easily n with
such graceful air does the gifted post
prandialist glide about amid the treas
ures of early Egyptian. Assyrian and
Semitic literature. He has even been
known to relate the story of the man
who was going to get h law of sup

Protective union of Butte seems to be

the union reported that their treasur-

a warrant for his arrest was issued
and an effort will be made to appre-

Another alleged embezzler. for whom
"A warrant has been issued is DIR. Harry
Leadbetter. resident agent for DIR. A.
Il. Sanden's electric belts. who Is ac-
cused of being short in his accounts TO
the extent of 1885,, representing his

Sander has taken charge of his BUSH

flying his s~tenographer. who was still

a man in the eye with a pocket knife
and was placed under arrest on a
charge of assault In the second degree.
Justice L~aurandeau held him to the
district court in the sum of $500. He
furnished the bond. but before an in
formation was filed against him i'm
the district court, his victim lost the
sight of his eye and the case became
more serious and Kaufman disap-
peared. After he had skipped out the
information was filed n Judge Clan
cy raised his bond to $4,000. When last

the credibility OF a particular witness.
or as to the weight which they should
attach 20 his testimony. He must not
single out a particular Witness ara
mentioning him by name. instruct the
fury to take into consideration his IN
terest in the suit as AFFECTING his creo-
Utility. So also continues Judge Penn
berton. where In a criminal case. the
credit of witnesses. who were police
men. was assailed on account OF their
occupation. and the Judge told the jury
hat In very many cases which had
been tried at that term OF court, po-
Iicemen had been the principal wit
nesses. and he thought the jury would
agree with him in the opinion that In
Ali those cases they had manifested
great intelligence inc testified with ap-
parent candor and impartiality. IL was
held error and the verdict or guilty
was. for that reason. set aside.
The credibility of a witness Is n
question to be determined solely by the
Jury. The court has no right to COM
ment upon their credibility. either by
word or intimation. BY designating the
three witnesses named in the instruc-
ton. among the great number who
testified i'm the case. and calling the
particular attention of the jury to their
testimony, and theirs only, the u
intimated that there was something
connected with their evidence which
demanded particular scrutiny. and to
that extent the instruction was an i'm
piled comment on their evidence and
credibility. at least the jury was au-
thorized to so consider it,"
So that the judge there decided that
no matter what position a man held.
a prince or a pauper. whether
a workingman or a capitalist in
the courts of the state one man lis as
worthy of belief as another. so long as
his credlbility has not been impugned.
and that a workingman employed by a
company Is as justly entitled to credit
and belief as another. n that any
gratitude he may entertain towards
his employer hal not be a d~etraction
from the weight of his solemn oath.
The want OF space precludes the re-
cital Of other decisions in our supreme
court. where Judge Pemberton has.
without stint. shown himself TO be the
friend OF the laborer and h wage
worker. on the principle that the SER
want may be as worthy Of credence and
trust and confidence as the master.
