A DUEL WITH SWORDS.
CavaIotti, the italian Poet and States
man, Killed.

Rome, March S.-SignOr Felice
Carlo Cavaotti, the poet, dramatist,
publicist and well-knOwn radical mem
ber of the chamber of deputies for Cor
telona. was killed here this afternoon
in duel with swords with SignOr Ma
cola, member OF deputies and editor OF
the Gazzetta di Venezia The encoun-
ter was the outcome Of press poIem-
les in the columns OF the Milan Secolo
at an unfrequented spot outside the
Porta Magore. Signor Macolas sec
onds were Deputies Signor Guido Fu-
sinato, a professor at the university of
Turin and member OF FoItre, and
SignOr Bizzoni, the publicist, and
Signor Tassi, member of the chamber
of deputies.
Shortly before the meeting, Signor
CavalOtti seemed in excellent spirits,
and even jolled with his seconds.
When the word was given, he attacked
his opponent vigorously. The first
two engagements were without result,
but in the third, Signor Cavalotti re-
ceived thrust in the throat that
severed his iugular vein.
At first, it was thought he was only
slightly injured, but the gravity of the
wound was soon perceived on his put
ting his hand to his mouth. He with
drew it covered with blood and could
not utter word. The doctors and his
seconds carried him to ZellinO, and
laid him in a bed in the residence of
the Countess Celiro. There, tracheot-
omy was performed, and artificial
breathing attempted, but all efforts
were useless. Signor Cavalotti expired
in 10 minutes, without speaking again
Signor Macola did not receive a scratch.
The news, on reaching the city,
caused great sensation. Numerous
deputies and friends hurried to the
scene, and there is universal regret over
the death of Cavalotti.

Seattle, March 8. The steam
schooner Lakme, which arrived this af-
ternoon from Alaska, brings the news
that the steamer Corona, which went
ON rock at Lewis island, was floated
last Thursday evening. The Corona is
considerably injured, the worst place
being under the forward hatch, where
she first struck the rock. At this
point, her keel is turned over for 20
feet. This can be temporarily fixed
from the inside. After entering and
clearing at Victoria, the Corona will
be brought to Port Townsend, where
her cargo will be unloaded. Captain
Goodall then expects to take her to San
Francisco without going into drydock.

Cruise OF an Eight-ronner.

Port Townsend, March 8. - The
eight-ton schooner Anna Catharine put
into this place last night en- route from
San Francisco to Alaska. When the
schooner left the Golden Gate, nearly
three months ago, she carried five
persons, four men and one woman. On
the way up the coast the little craft
came near being wrecked, and was
forced to put into Tillamook, where the
woman deserted and returned to San
Francisco. Fresh supplies were taken
on her today, and the schooner headed
for the north.

ALASKA BILL PASSED,
Concessions Given Canada in Lieu of
Certain Privileges.

certain friH1leges.
Washington, March AFTER a de.
bate lasting several days, the senate
late this afternoon passed the bill ex-
tending the homestead laws and pro-
viding for right of way for railroads in
the district of Alaska. Comparatively
little discussion of general interest was
created by the bill. Section lS, pro-
viding for certain bonding concessions
to Canada, in lieu of privileges to be
extended by the Dominion government
to this country, however, induced a
rather lively debate, as it brought into
the controversy the old fisheries aues-
tion on the New England coast, which
has been pending between the United
States and Great Britain for 100 years.
The statement was made on the floor
OF the senate that there was every rea-
son to believe that by the passage of
the bill. the fisheries question could be
settled without great effort, as assur-
ances to that effect had been received
from large and influential elemen in
Canada.

A WORD OF ADVICE
To Those Coming to Alaska or N.
KlOndike Gold Fields,

One thing should be impressed uno,
every miner, prospector or trader com.
ing to Alaska, to the Klondike. Or tb.
Yukon country, and that is the neces
sity of providing an adequate and pror.
er food supply. Whether procured in
the States, in the Dominion, or at tbg,
supply stores here or further on, thslI
must be his primary concern. UpoD
the manner in which the miner has oh.
served or neglected this precautim
more than upon any other one thin
will his success or failure depend.
These supplies must be healthful and
should be concentrated, but the most
careful attention in the selection Of
foods that will keep unimparied indef.
nitely under all the conditions which
they will have to encounter is impera.
tive. For instance, as bread raised
with baking powder must be relied
upon for the chief part of every meal,
imagine the helplessness OF a miner
with can of spoiled baking powder
Buy only the very hest flour; it is the
cheapest in the end. Experience has
shown the Royal Baking Powder to be
the most reliable, and the trading com.
panies now uniformly supply this
brand, as others will not keep in this
climate. Be sure that the bacon is
sweet, sound and thoroughly cured.
These are the absolute necessities upon
which all must place chief reliance,
and can under no circumstances be
neglected. They may, of course, be
supplemented by as many comforts Or
delioacies as the prospector may be
able to pack or desire to pay for

"The most economical person 1 ever

"What did he do that indicated greater
economy than the sentiment expressed by
his wife, asked the barber, who had recov-
cred his self-possesson.
He was fearful chewer and used to raise
his own tobacco. After he'd got what
strength he could out of his guilds he would

HOW TO DRESS CALVES.
Good Prices Cannot He Secured in the
Chicago Markets Unless These
Hints Are Needed.

Calves from three to six weeks old,
and weighing about 100 pounds or say
from so to 1870 pounds, are the most de-
sirable weight for shipment. The head
should be cut out, so as to leave the
hide of the head on the skin. The legs
should be cut off at the knee joint. The
entrails should all be removed, except
ing the kidneys and liver, which should
not be taken out. Cut the carcass open
from the neck through the entire length
from head to bumgut. If this is done
they are not so apt TO sour and spoil
during hot weather. Many a fine car
cass has spoiled in hot weather because
of its not being cut open. Don't wash
the carcass out with water, but wipe it
out with a dry cloth. Don't ship until
the animal heat is entirely out of the
body, and never tie the carcass I'D in a
bag, as this keeps the air from circulate
ing and makes the meat more liable to
become tainted. Mark for shipment by
fastening a shipping tag to the hind
leg. Calves under so pounds should not
be shipped go pounds is the minimum
weight in the Chicago market), and are
liable to be condemned by the health
officers as unfit for food. Merchants,
too, are liable to be fined, if found selling
these slunks, for violation of the law.
Very heavy calves, such as have been
fed on buttermilk, never sell well in our
market-they are neither veal nor beef.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

Keep the cow clean by currying her
every day.
Never let cows drink from pond that
has no outlet.
You cannot make good butter if the
COWS eat garlic.
Never add anything to milk to pre-
vent it from souring.
Never mix fresh milk with that which
has been canned.
Never move COW faster than slow
walk if she has full udder.
Don't let mixer who uses tobacco
milk if you want good butter.
The first streams from the teat are
very watery, and had better be MIXED
onto the ground.
We assert this: That butter is not in
juriously affected by ensilage and that
dehorning does not affect the milk pro-
ductlon.
When cans of milk are to be hauled a
considerable distance, they should be
full, and carried in spring wagons, to
prevent churning.-Western Plowman.

windows in the position shown. The
dotted line passing through this win
low shows that every part of the cell
lar receives the sunlight at some part
of the day, while considerable part of
the cellar will receive e constantly all
day long. The barn rests upon the cell
lar wall on all sides except the south,
where it is supported by stone piers.
The entrance to the cellar must depend
upon the LAY of the land" but can
often be placed at the back corner in the
eastern end. This will bring it out of
the way of cold northerly and westerly
winds. But even when of necessity
placed in either of these exposed posi-
tions it can easily be made wind proof.

Spray Non-InfectedT Trees.

1t is a mistake to presume that tree
should not be sprayed because it has not
been attacked by its fungus or insect
enemy. Trees should be sprayed on
general principles. The attacks of both
fungus and insects are often unnoticed
at first. If the man does not have spray
Ing apparatus the probability is that
he will look upon the first incursions
as of little account, hoping that the
pest will not be any greater than at the
first. After the trees and their fruit
have been damaged he begins to spray,
but often too late to save the crop for
the year, and often not in time to save
the injury that will result to the tree
on account of the retarding of it's de-
veloping buds, which would otherwise
bear fruit next year.

BUILDING A CELLAR.
How to Construct n Good One Under .
Barn Situated on a Northern
or Sunless slope.

Many farms are so located that a
barn cellar with a southern exposure
is out of the question, since the land
where the barn is, or is to be, located
slopes to the north. 1t is out of the
question if one must follow the usual
plan for obtaining barn cellars, where
plenty of winter sunshine is needed, but
practicable if the plan shown in the
illustration is carried out. This is a
sectional diagram of a barn built upon a
northern slope, into the cellar of which
the sun shines very freely, although the
barn sets on a level with the ground in
front of it. If it were raised tie height
of the usual underpinning the sun
would have a still better chance to
enter the cellar. The latter extends out
beyond the barn on the south side, to
give room for a succession of sloping

PLUGGING THE PIANO.
MIR. Gozzleby Finds Temporary Relief

Simple Means.

at is a familiar fact" said Mr.. Gozzleby,
"or it is a fact at least familiar to all fond
parents, that children, without exception,
ike to play the piano with the hard pedal
on all the time. All children like to make all
the noise they can, in playing the piano as in
everything else. Playing upon the piano
without the heavy pedal does not disturb me
at all; but the minute the heavy pedal is put
on l am greatly disturbed, and the continued
resounding of the notes fairly racks me.
"Of course, can't be forever saying don't,
and it's ungracous to say it at all, suppose,
for why shouldn't the children have their
fun? And so | hit upon the desperate ex-
pedient of blocking the heavy pedal. l have
whitfield out a nice little piece of soft white
pine into plug that just fits into the space
under the pedal in the opening in which it
works., so that the pedal cannot be de-
pressed.

it has been two days of blessed relief 1t

matter-I wonder they haven't asked me
long ago-and of course I'll have to tell 'em.

the respite has given me strength the better
to withstand, for time at least, the uproar

AeratiOn of MIX Paws.

Our personal practice for some years
In preparing milk for bottling shows
conclusively that the passing of cur
rent of cold, pure air, washed in the
way suggested from every particle of
dust or impurity, did have good result,
which was proved by the fact that milk
so air washed, as we might say, kept
sweet in the equally well-prepared bot
ties for four days longer than the I'M
aerated milk. This practical evidence
of the advantage of proper aeration and
cooling by pure cold air goes to show
that if well done in a scientific manner
the aeratiou of milk is useful for this
purpose at least; and if so, it may well
be believed that ii will be found useful
