The COMPLIANT.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
When thou shalt stand, a naked shiverine
soul,
Stripped of thy shows and Trainings
made most bare
OF all the fieshy glory thou dfdst wear.
And hear the thunder of Gods judgmen,
roll SIT
Above thy head-while to thine hard won
goal
His own elect ascend the golden stair
What plea will proffer, when, too late for
prayer,
OF thy lost life thou seest the sum and
whole?
Il have no armor dinted by the fight.
No broken sword, no casque with cloven
brim,
Was none to witness to the grisly sight.
For all alone we strove in darkness dim.
Yet in The Valley of Death, o Lord. one
night,
met Apollyon and vanquished him.

From the New Orleans Picayune Dem.)

The members of the three parties hate

further apart where they have any prin-
ciples, than ever but when the selfish de-
sires of individuals can be sufficiently
aroused and excited to cause them TO
ebandon their principles they can be
brought 70 act together and TO undertake
anything that may seem TO promise graft
fication. Neglect or abandonment, or vi
olhtous OF party principles exert a very
demoralizing effect. and there is every
reason to suppose thai a movement car
ried on under such conditions will re-
suit In the breakup Of the old parties.

A story of bravery of the sort that
thrills is reported from Havana in con-
nection with the Maine disaster. The
New York World tells the story: I'm the

groans, Capt. sigsbee saw orderly An
thony come TO present arms as calmly
es if it were dress parade, and heard him
say in even tones of perfect discipline,
Sir, 1 have to inform you that the ship
has been blown IN and is SINKING" The
correspondent of the World asked Antho-
ny his name and complimented him, when
the brave fellow said; "Oh, that's moth
ing; any Yankee marine would do that"
The country would like to hear more of
Orderly Anthony. He has the right sort
of stuff in him TO enutle him to position
higher than that of orderly.

Building Lines.

Does 1t not strike our city authorities
that there ought to be a committee Of
Council known as the building line com
mittee? We can never have beautiful
city as long as lot owners are permitted
to build in accordance with their own
views, so far as the street lines are con-
cerned. When a street IS opened com
mttee Of Council should fix the building
lines so there would be uniformity. Now
the appearance of the streets is being ruin
ed because some of the houses are being
built as close upon the street line as 1t is
possible to build them while others are
built several feet back from the street.
A building is now being erected on Whit
aker street. opposite the Park Extension,
which practically destroys a large part of
the value of the adjoining house, and on
CASTOR street there are houses built so
closely on the street, while the adjoining
houses have plats of ground in front of
them, as to detract greatly from the
streets beauty.
In every city Of the size Of this the city
fixes the building lines, to which lot own
ers have to conform. The consequence
is that uniformity in the distance of
houses from the street is secured and the
streets present much more attractive ap-
pearance than where one house is built
directly on the street line and another
quite a distance back from the street. 1t
is remarkable that this matter has not at
tracted the attention of the City Coun-
Gil But having neglected it thus long it
doesn't follow that the Council should neg
lect it any longer. A good deal of money
is being spent to beautify the streets and
parks. Why not fix the building lines
so as to secure uniformity of distance of
dwelling houses from the street and thus
help along the work of improving the city?

ton Is conspicuous after showers,
when 1t will be noted that the tires of
thN bicycles beat down and harden
the bicycle path much more rapidly
than the narrow-tired wagons restore
the roadway proper to smooth con-
dition. 1t is true that the action of
the pneumatic tire is more beneficial
to a soft roadway than that OF the
hard broad tire, but its tamping eff
feet is an illustration of what the
wide tire does in comparison with the
cutting effect of the conventional mar
row tire.

An exhaustive test of the broad and
narrow tire, made at the agricultural

quried n greater strain for haulage, it
did no injury to the road, whereas the
narrow tire cut through the soft earth
beneath the water, and destroyed the
surfacing. The broad tire was also al
disadvantage on roads where the
hardpan was covered with dust, as the
narrow tire cut through to the hard
pan, while the wide tire pinched and
heaped up the dust, and thus increased
the strain of haulage. The broad tire
also required a greater strain on some
kinds of mud roads. But as a whole
the tests were strongly favorable tc
the use of broad tires for the average
roads.--Milwaukee Wisconsin.

NEW TURN IN DREYFUS CASE
Lieut.. Col Henry, who Forged Testimony
to Convict an Innbcent Man, Commits
Suicide when Arrested.

Paris. Sept Lieut.. Col Henry
has committed suicide. He cut his
throat with a razor he had concealed
in his valise. During the recent lola
trial Henry accused Picquart of falsi-
flying kilograms. A duel followed, in
which Henry was wounded. 1t is now
evident that Henry forged the tele-
grams with the express object of para
lying Col Picquart's efforts to expose
Maj. Esterhazy and to get revision
of the Dreyfus case. Col. Henry was
to be tried by court-martial, he having
committed forgery lowing to the abb
solute necessity for finding proofs
against Dreyfus." 1t is understood that
the document in question is the letter
which hitherto has been alleged to
have been written by the German mil
itary attache to the Italian military
attache in October, 1896. The new de-
velopment appears to alter the aspect
of both the Dreyfus and lola cases
In fact, some people believe that per-
haps the real turning point in the
Dreyfus case has been reached, and
that the death of Col. Henry will lead
TO revision of the trial of the pris-
oner of DEVILS island.

ing not only passengers, but also mail
and express matter. Inside city linn
its in many places special trolley cars
are made for local postal ana express
service, and in the vicinity of very
large cities one will sometimes find
that q certain style of low platform
cars are provided by the steam roads
for carrying into town the heavy
trucks of the market gardeners laden
with fresh vegetables.
And now still another plan has been
proposed. A Toledo man. named Bon
ner, has devised special truck which
is designed to run on street railway
and to carry farm or express wag-
on. Inasmuch as the ordinary vehicle
would not fit the truck, Mr.. Bonner
thinks it better to have his own wagon
as well as his railway truck. He has
taken out patent on the idea, and
has obtained franchise from the city
of Toledo for running his wagons
through the streets. AS soon as he
has manufactured and sold number
of his special wagons 10 the express
companies in town and has also had q
few of his trucks made he will be in
position to take the wagons on the
trucks through such streets as have
trolley lines. The trucks are intend
ed to be coupled to trolley car, and
are not provided with electric motors
of their own.
After the city service is fairly start
ed Mr.. Bonner will endeavor 10 secure
rural patronage. OF course, it will be
necessary for such farmers as wish to
take advantage of his plan to have the
right sort of wagons and to haul them
by horsepower near enough 10 town TO
reach the trolley tracks. But in Ohio
there are numerous trolley roads ex.
tending from one town to another and
attaining a length of ten, Is and even
rs miles. If farmer only lives along
one of these routes he will not need
TO houl his wagons more than few
rods. Indeed, il he has a switch and
sidetrack and loads his wagons while
they stand on the latter ne will have
an easy task before him. The rapid de-
velopment OF trolley lines through the
rural districts nowadays makes Mr..
Bonner's idea an interesting one
There is no telling how far it is likely
to become serviceable to American
farmers-N. Y. Tribune.

APPLES FOR VINEGAR.
best Way of DisposInE of the Early
Varieties when They Can't lie
Sold at IA Profit

Whenever there are more early APP
pies than can probably be sold, ii is
a good plan to make cider from them,
to be later turned into vinegar. In
hot weather, all the stages of ferment-
alton are gone through very quickly.
1t cannot be kept sweet even three days
without beginning the alcoholic fer
mentation. Later in the season, fer.
mentation goes on more slowly. But il
can be FASTENED by frequently chang
ing the cider from one vessel to an
other, exposing it as much as possible
to the air while doing so. One of the
most frequent ways is to pour the
partly fermented cider through coarse
shavlngs, taking care to use those
that have no offensive odor. Most
early apples are not rich in sugar. 1t
Is a good plan to add some sugar or
molasses to the cider when il is put
into barrels. Such cider in its alco-
holic state win be a most dangerous
beverage, as the combination of malic
acid and alcohol makes the fighting
drunk kind Of intoX.cation. But after
it passes into the third stage, or ace
tuous fermentation, the more sweet
has been put 10 the cider the sharper
the vinegar will be. We have known
farmers who kept hand cider mill,
in which apples were ground all
thr ough the year, making sweet cider
any time they wished it by pressing
through the old-fashioned cheese
presses that used to be in every farm.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

In the winter keep the COW warm
and dry,
Never use rusty cans under any con-
sideration.
Don't keep hard milking COW, il you
value your time.
Always milk as quickly as possible,
and do it with clean, dry hands.
Cream should be taken OF the milk
while it is still sweet, if possible.
Clean, bright food, in sufficient varie-
ty, is what is needed in the dairy.
Two or three degrees of temperature
will make a great difference in churn-
ing.
Be on friendly terms with the calves
from the very first. Talk to them and
pet them.
Never disturb milk when cream is
rising or the butter globules will sink
never to rise again.
The good-looking, round-bodied COW
is never a good one. The best dairy
COW is hardly pretty.
Whenever COW drinks water that
you would not drink yourself she is
robbing you of profits.
The COW can have no better food
than shredded corn fodder, il 1t is
good fodder, or ensilage.
First rinse cans in cold water, then
wash them in warm water, then scald
with boiling water and dry.
A COW is both a machine and very
delicate, sensitive organism. Do not
make the mistake of supposing that
she is simply an inanimate machine.
