Gold Coin Wheat,

Everett Hollingsworth threshed
on Thursday morning, the wheat
grown on two acres on the farm of
Lewis Armstrong, which measured
lis bushels, or 81. bushels to the
acre. The Golden Coin" is a new
variety and was sown by Mr.. A.
as an experiment. 1t was cut by
the "Ideal Deering Binder" sold
by White Bros, one of whom de-
clares, although the wheat was un-
usually heavy, he never saw ma
chine donicer work. Mr.. Armstrong
has in about Is acres of red wheat,
which will yield some 40 bushels
per acre. The crop is one of the
best Mr.. A. has ever raised, not
withstanding the season has been
considered by most farmers rather
unfavorable. Mr.. A. has also one
of the best fields Of corn in the State
the above crops indicate not only
good land. but good culture. The
farm in this case certainly pays.

Mrs. Rosa Rosenstein, at Slidell. Mont
gomcry county. John Alfred Brown,

Vienna, July Last evening the
police OF Vienna dispersed an immense
socialist demonstration. Forty-fve
persons were placed under arrest,
among them the labor leaders DR.. Ad-
Ter and Herren Baumann and Bretsch-
neider. The demonstration was against
lhe newly passed municipal suffrage
bill. which the Liberals and Socialists
allege aims at securing a permanent
anti-Semite majority in the town
council. They therefore decided that
the workmen should make an orderly
demonstration in the most fashionable
part of the city. The police had made
extensive preparations and, according
to the manifestants, behaved brutally
toward them.

THE LATE ROBERT BONNER.

THE LATE ROBERT BONNER.
the later years of his life to the study
of the horses foot-a subject about
which he undoubtedly knew more than
any other man living or dead, and he
practically founded the New York
Ledger, which he made one of the
most profitable weeklies of the world.
Born in ireland in 1924, he came to
this country in 1889. Entering print
ing office in Hartford, he learned the
printing trade, and then went to New
York, where he worked as proofreader
and assistant foreman in the office of
The Mirror His dexterity in setting
display advertisements secured him q
position on The Merchants Ledger,
and when the owner failed Bonner
bought the paper. For two years he
published 1t as commercial weekly,
but he had ambitions, and he decided
to make ii paper for general reading.
He employed Fanny Fern, then a ris-'
ing and popular writer, to contribute to
The Ledger. He paid her the unpre-@
cedented price of 800 column and
began his unique plan of advertising
by publishing part of the first in
stallment of the story in number of !
papers. with the statement that the
remainder of the romance could be had
only in The Ledger. The effect was,
magical. The Ledger grew and thrived
as no publication had ever grown be-
fore. He employed the best story
writer's and paid the highest sums for
novels. Perhaps Norwood" story
by Henry Ward Beecher for which the
famous divine was paid fabulous
price, was more thoroughly advertised
than any other story that ever ran in
The Ledger. But "Capitola; or, The
Hidden Hand" by Mrs. Southworth,
and "The Gunmaker of Moscow" by
Sylvanus Cobb, Jr., were by far the
most popular of the stories published,
and they were repeated several times.
1t was the custom in The Ledger's
palmiest days never to issue any Of It's
serials in book form. Mr.. Bonner was
always very careful about his stories.
and in fact all contributions to The
Ledger. He would not even allow the
marriage of cousins in any story that
was published in his paper.
Joseph Harper. of Harper & Bros,
Commodore Vanderbilt, General Grant
and many other eminent men who
loved horses as he did for the pleasure
they gave them became fast friends.
and for years he and hig rig were
we'll known on the handsome drives in
and about New York. His study of the
horses foot was most exhaustive, and
he gave himself up to its pursuit al
most entirely when some years ago he
retired from The Ledger and left its
conduct to his sons His theory was
that many of the alleged diseases of
the horse, especially those that bring
on lameness, are the result of ignor- :.
ance of the structure of the foot and
consequent bad shoeing. He proved
his theories to be sound by always
having the great horses he owned shod
under his direction and their feet
balanced" AS result his
horses were never lame.

Mr.. Bonner enjoyed remarkable
health until year ago, when his life-8
long friend, Rev. Dr. John Hall, died.
A second shock to him was the death
of his son, Andrew Allen Bonner. ON
Dec. 27 last. After this Mr.. Bonner's
temperature changed completely. He
made fewer trips to his magnificent
farm near Tarrytown, and contented
himself with short drive daily.
A week ago Tuesday he took his
last drive. On his return home his
case was so serious that several doc

his family physician, DR.. Mum. He
became much worse on the following
day and since then took no nourish-
