Concentrations.

Carbondale, Col. Nov. 12.-Six Sec
ton men employed on the Rio Grande
railroad have been poisoned by drink
ing water from the Roaring Fork
river, and two are i'm a critical cond-
ton. A child, which died in convul-
sions, is believed also TO have been
poisoned. An analysis of the water
showed that il contained much arsenic
and other poisonous minerals. These
come from the new concentrators at
Aspen. i'm which zinc ores are treated.

river. Hundreds of people in the valley
who used the river water for domestic
purposes are i'll. and many cattle have
died after drinking the water.

PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.

II is almost impossible TO undo the
evil we have done.
Punishment has several objects. One
Of them is that it should be school for
training men. 1t opens the eyes TO see
the horrible nature Of sin, and the
greatness of the need for repentance.
Sin is leaven. disease that is catch
ing. No one can sin TO himself alone.
The early manhood Of Manasseh IL
illustrates that. when the children Of
the good become vicious. they do be-
come worse than the average Of wicked
men. His conscience suffers more fatal
violence.
The fall of Manasseh was an exrep-
tion to the general law respecting the
history of children of a cody parent
age. 1t is a proverb. almost, that tho
sons of bishops and clergymen and
dcacons and elders are apt o be wicked.
The restraints OF religious home are
sometimes criticised as tending by re-
action TO the extremes Of vice. This as
sertion Is not true historically. Static
tics disprove IL.

POSTPONED UNTIL MONDAY.
The knotty Question of the Ce-sion Of
the Philippines Now Engaging the
Peace Com missioncrs.

Paris, Nov. 12.-It is now generally
understood that the Joint session OF
the peace commissions which was ar
ranged for Saturday will be postponed
until Monday next.
AT the joint session of Wednesday
last il was agreed that the session
fixed for Saturday might be postponed
until Monday if the Spanish commits
soners found themselves unable TO
prepare a reply for presentation on
Saturday, and il now appears the
Spaniards found il necessary TO send
10 Madrid for certain records which
did not reach Paris before ten o'clock
on Saturday morning, and, therefore,
their proper embodiment into the
Spanish memorandum cannot be ac-
complished before Monday.
The next communication from the
Spanish commissioners will deal with
the rights Of either commission TO dis
cuss Spanish sovereignty over the
Philippine islands. and with the Amer
can contention that the retention of
public moneys and customs collections
at Manila is justified by the fact of
the military occupation of the place
by the American forces and warrant
ed by the protocol. even if faulty, as
claimed by Spain, because such action
commenced after the suspension of
hostilities.
Judge Day, president of the Ameri-
can commission, is suffering from
cold, and had slight chill Thursday
night. Therefore, by his physicians
advice, he rested quietly yesterday.

PERMANENT PASTURE.

4 good tough blue grass sod is in estimable to the shepherd, affording an exercising ground for the flock in spring and winter, where they m3y roam and pick without getting into the hated mud. There is danger in using these permanent pastures too continuously for the flock, for they may harbor parasites after awhile, and the safest way is to rotate the ami mals-sheep on a certain pasture this year. cows next, then sheep again, or, better still, COWS two years and sheep each third summer. Parasites are the dread, and too often the despair, of the shepherd. How they effect the flock and how they sinfest the pasture is well known
 IT case one has thinner soil than blue grass. like the Canadian blue grsss or "wire grass" (poa compressa) serves admirably. This grass covers the 1early barren hillsides of many a fairly profitable sheep farm, and has the advantage of remaining gree long after cold weather sets in. White clover will grow with it, too, although not so wei las with the Kentucky blu: gr.ss.
 Timothy makes very indifferent and short lived pasture grass. Or chaEd grass is better but rather coarse red top serves fairly well. and vii endure thinner and wetter soils thar blue grass. For the south, Japan cio yer and Bermuda grass are excellent.
