The Governor had made all plans Il
start at 8 o'clock in order TO make sure Of
seeing the sunset on Hampton Roads, but
the ladies N the party were evidently de-
termined to see It rise in Richmond, and
1t was well up before anchor was weigh

The party was composed Of the Cover

Miss Belle Tyler, Miss Sue Tyler, and
Miss Kate Montague, and Mr.. Henry VI.
Tyler and wife, and Messrs. Edward,
james, and Heth Tyler. Mr.. Edward
Tyler who resides on the Governors
farm near Radford, came down Saturday
night to join the party.
Everybody was In high spirits, the
prospect Of a weeks outing on the James
and Chesapeake proving as exhilarating
as the soft air tempered with a breath of
frost. Though the hour was so early,
there were numerous spectators on The
wharf, for it was known the Governor
was to start. The majority of these greet
ed his Excellency, and while he did not
state positively that he knew each by
name, his cordial acceptance of their
wishes for a good time left no room to
doubt he knew them all.
ITINERARY NOT COMPLETED.
The boat left the wharf at 6SO o'clock.
1t was possible for her to reach Norfolk
at 5. at the latest, but the Governors
mind was not fully made up as to
whether he would proceed further than

CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.
Proceedings Yesterday Were Serious
and the Cabinet Threatened to
Resign.

Paris, Jan. ia semi-ofIicial note
relative to the demand that the alleged
confession of Alfred Dreyfus to. NJ.
Northumberland should be published,
says: ~.
IF the government conceded the de-
mand it would bring under discussion
and appear to place in doubt the author
ity of the Dreyfus decision"
There was great excitement in the
chamber of deputies today when NJ.
Cnvaignac, republican, demanded deci-
sion of the semi-otlicial note issued to-
day in which the government declined to
make public the alleged confession of
Alfred Dreyfus to NJ. Lubrun-Renaud
The premier, NJ. Meline, in refusing to
discuss the matter declared that if the
chamber voted its immediate decision
the cabinet would resign. The house
then by vote of 80 to 252 adopted a
motion shelving the decision.

Dry Goods.

New York, Jan. 1S.-There was less
activity in the dry goods districts today
than Yesterday The usual Tuesday
quietude was noticeable. Cotton goods
continued dull i'll all grades. The buy,

goods and prints than was to be expected
under the circumstances. 1t is beyond
doubt that there is tendency on the
part of buyers to underestimate the eff
fects of the eastern strike, or at least
they do not believe that these effects
will be speedy. In local jobbing the spot

ing into consideration his duties to his family or to himself. Occasionally some man is allowed to leave the army, but the secretary is doing all he can to discourage this.
 The other day a fair-haired, smooth faced boy walked in to see the secre- tary at the war department. q came to ask you to release me from the army" the boy said. "I do not care myself. but my poor old mother is dy- ing from grief"
 The appeal of the little fellow, whose boyish face quickly caught the secre- tary, made an impression, but in the kindest manner the secretary said: My boy, I do not know what your story is, but every day receive these appeals. I was a soldier myself. Let me say to you that you may always regret this. Write wour mother con- soling letters and go forward and do your duty, determined to come out of the war with a name and record" "Yes, MT. Secretary" said the boy, "I realize all that. am anxious to go l to the front, but look at this note from mother"
 The secretary glanced over the tear l bespattered note, which spoke or my little soldier boy" In the note she i sent the son a lock of her hair. It was gray, almost white. You see the color of my hair now," she wrote. "You know what the color was when you went away"
 Taking from a pocke. watch chain made of hair, the soldier boy said to the secretary: Here, sir, you see what ! a few weeks have done. From this beautiful brown my mothers hair has turned gray. God knows love her. I love my country. I do not know what to do."
 The apeal was strong one. T will investigate your case" the big-hearted secretary said, as he walked away to his office, just trace of moisture show ing in his seyes.-Washington Star.

RETURNED HOME.

B. L. Worthen of the firm of Gardi- ner, Worthen & Goss, proprietors of the Tucson machine shops, has re- turned from six weeks stay near the King, ten miles north from Texas Hill and just above George Norton's ranch, where he completed the erection Of a thirty-ton cyanide plant of the Mac Arthur-Forest process. The machinery consists of three fifty-ton tanks, four til1ings, two thirty-ton solution tanks two twenty-ton stump tanks, two zinc boxes with a. daily capacity of fifty tons, engine, pumps, piping, etc. Ed Rochester of Tucson is superintendent of the plant, assisted by Prof. Menden- hall, recently of the school of mines of the university. Jesse Mcdonald of the Denver agency of this process is supervising operations temporarily. Six men are employed and active oper- ations are expected to begin soon. There are now 2,5O0 tons of dirt ready for the mill. From the experiments already made it can safely be predicted that the enterprise will be a success. Tucson Star

VALUE OF THE BEE.

The value of the bee in the work for fertilizing plants by carrying pollen from one plant to another is greater than it's use in producing honey, says the Southwest. In fact, without the aid of bees many crops would be com plete failures. Darwin found that in 100 heads of purple clover protected from the visitations of bees not seed was produced, while 100 heads visited by bees produced nearly 5000 seeds. When two varieties of certain plants are grown in the same neighborhood there is liability of cross fertilization as bees forage over wide territory. It will, therefore, pay the farmer or fruit grower to keep at least one hive of bees or encourage his neighbor to do so.-Coleman's Rural World.

CUCUMBERs.

It used to be the plan among the New England people to burn over a piece of land when cucumbers were to be planted, says Farmers Review. Whether the addition of the ashes from small fire had much to do with the success of the crop cannot be told. Probably the addition of wood ashes to some soils might be benefit to the crop. To grow cucumbers success fully thorough manuring and cultivat ing are necessary. In the early spring the growers of cucumbers for the mar ket use immense quantities of manure to force the growth. It seems as if they will certainly stand high degree of fertility.
 The seed should be sown in moist ground not in the dry soil just at top of the hill. The moist soil will assist the germination. The more common way is to make large hills and put a good lot of manure in the bottom, even if the whole ground has been pre- viously worked over with manure. The manure in the hill should be deep enough and there should be enough dirt above it to prevent the tender roots coming into contact with it. When the plant is large the roots can feed on it at will without injury
 To keep off the bugs till the plants are large enough to take care of them selves is always somewhat of prob lem. There are various remedies giv- en, the using of tobacco dust, poisons and so forth. But one of the most satisfactory methods is to have some light muslin cloth with which to cov- CT the hills till the plants get a num- Der of coarse leaves. These cloths are stretched over frame and the ends covered with the soil. Most of the insects feed on the tender leaves and are not particularly interested in the ccarser 1eavs that come later.

ASPARAGUS GROWING.

The Missouri experiment station has been experimenting for the past two years with asparagus growing, and has successfully grown asparagus in
 the open field in mid-winter by run
 ming steam into shallow tunnels be- tween the asparagus rows. The as paragus field was first covered with six or seven inches of heating horse ma nure, and the steam forced into the soil from the greenhouse boiler. By this means large yield of fine aspara- gus was obtained throughout the months of December, January and Feb ruary; the finest quality being gotten in the middle of January, when the weather was coldest.

NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

Arthur Wight has closed his saloon in Solomonville and expects to go to Pearce, where he is interested with his father in some good mining prop erty.
 The owners of theRaven mine had a representative in the camp a short time ago and the report was given out that a 100-foot shaft and other devel- opment work was to be done on this property this year. This mine lies between the Alabama and Gold King mines and it has made a good show ing in the past.
 MT. Reynolds, who is interested in ;oal, and who has been operating a diamond drill above Solomonville for over two years, visited the coal pros poets above Duncan, where James Tong and others have done considerable work during the last two years. It is believed that these coal prospects may develop large bodies of coal, and if they do prove valuable Duncan would become an important city.
 There is probably larger amount of dump leasing going on this year than ever. One reason is new processes have made it possible to work grade that was formerly too lew; another reason is that lots of god ore has gone over the dump because it was not what the miner was Joking for and he did not think it had value. Each year brings it's lesson of improvement and knowledge.-Mining Record.
 The Belt is informed by Northrup Fowler, secretary of the Globe Gold Mining and Milling company, that good progress is being made in the development of their property. The seventy-fve foot shaft has been con- pleted in two compartments and the drift driven on the ore 225 feet In a few days a whim will be running on the shaft, and at an early date small hoisting plant will be erected. The mine continues to show improvements and large body of ore is expected to be encountered in the crosscut started within a few feet of the bottom of the shaft.

sprouts were twelve or fourteen inches long and an inch in diameter, bleached perfectly and very tender and delic- ious. The amount of steam required was very small and for persons located near a good market the winter growing of asparagus would prove very profit able. Bulletin No. 43, by Prof. Whit ten, horticulturist, fully described this process and the results obtained. This illustrated bulletin is for free distribu- tion among the farmers and gardeners and may be had by addressing the di- rector of the experiment station at Co., lumbia.
