DAL HAWKINS KNOCKED OU
FRANK ERNIE FINISHED HIM IN
THE SEVENTH.
Result Was a Great Surprise to Haw-
kins and His Friends - Terrific
Blow On the Jaw.

San Francisco, March 3.-Frank Brne
of Buffalo knocked out Dal Hawkins of
San Francisco in the seventh round of
what was TO be a twenty-round con-
test at Woodward's pavilion tonight.
The result came as complete surprise
to Hawkins and his friends, as until
the end OF the sixth round Hawkins
had the better of the contest. Erne
had fought almost entirely on the de-
fensiye and many predicted that the
fight would last the limit
Throughout the first five rounds,
Hawkins worked a double action at
tack, landing with his left alternately
on Erne's left eye and on the left side
OF Erne's stomach. In the first round
Dal knocked his man down with
hard left just below the eye and Erne
remained down six seconds At every
opportunity he repeated the blow, vary
ing it with his left stomach punch,
until Erne was as red as lobster
The feature of Erne's fight was his
magnificent defense. He guarded up
percuts innGmerable and after the first
round did not appear to be materially
affected by his punishment, He fought
warily and watchfully, feinting with
his left and landing with his right
whenever opportunity offered.
In the decisive seventh both men
came up in good condition, after a
comparatively inactive round, Hawkins
started in with an aggressive left,
landing on Erne's body. The Buffalo
boy. after a few seconds of guarding,
suddenly started in and rushed Haw-
l5ins all over the ring, Dal responding
gamely, and there We're several lively
rallies. Then like a flash Erne made
an opening, feinting with his left and
driving savagely with his right on
Hawkins jaw, Dal dropped on his
back, completely knocked out. He had
to be carried to his corner and it was
three minutes before he recovered
consciousness. Erne carried little evil
dence Of the punishment he received in
the earlier rounds. and walked to his
corner smiling blandly, and cheered by
the crowd.

A SUPERINTENDENT'S REWARD
Con- Cal. & Va. Stakeholder Sued
Mackay For the Amount.

San Francisco, March 9.-The case OF
Theodore Fox against John w. Mackay
and the Consolidated California & Vir-
ginia Mining company has been decid-
ed by the supreme court in favor of the
defendants. Fox is a stockholder in the
mining company, and Mackay was a
director in the Nevada bank. In the
complaint Mackay was accused of con-
spiracy to defraud the mining COM
pany, with the aid of its board of di-
rectors, of 100000, which was paid to W.
H. Patton, superintendent of the mine,
having been voted to him by the direc-
tors for eXtinguisSling a fire in its
lower levels. In the superior court
Mackay won the case on the grounds
of non-liability. and the supreme court
affirms the decision.

SMALLPOX AT FORT RUSSELL.
Another Case Discovered Among
Twenty-fourth Infantry Recruits.
Especial to The Heraldl

Cheyenne, Wyo.. March S.-Another
case of smallpox was discovered among
the troops at Fort Russell today. A re-
cruit who arrived from Cincinnati
few days ago is the second man to be
taken with the dread disease. Post
physicians have been busy the past
week vaccinating every man in the reg
iment. The vaccination was completed
today, and the physicians anticipate no
trouble in preventing the disease from
spreading. Neither of the patients suf-
fering from the disease is seriously i'll.

plete Recovery.
Rome, March 3.-The physicians of
the pope say they are quite satisfied
with his condition. When leaving the
pontiff last evening they predicted for
him long life.
This being the anniversary of the
coronation of the pope, there were the
unusual ceremonies of flag hosting
and visits from prelates, notabilities
and diplomats, who inscribed their
names in the visitors book.
The doctors say that the pontiff's
mental and physical condition is ex-
cellent. The. papal secretary of state,
Cardinal Rampolla, has sent letter
to the high prelates residing in Rome,
in which he says: 'I hasten to notify
you that today the health of the holy
father is completely satisfactory"

Fertilixe the Orchard.

It is certain that any crop will ex-
haust the soil in time, whether Of grain,
grass or fruit. On some farms may be
seen orchards of apple trees over half
a century old. Every year these trees
have produced fruit, and in return have
received nothing in the form of fertil-
izer. It is estimated that an ordinary
apple crop removes from an acre Of
soil about SO pounds of nitrogen, 40
pounds of phosphoric acid and Is
pounds of potash. When clover is grown
in the orchard the land is benefited by
having its proportion of nitrogen in
creased, but it will gain nothing in
mineral matter. The land devoted to
apples should receive fertilizer or ma
nure every year, and when there is a
heavy crop Of apples in sight the fruit
should be thinned out in the early stages
of growth. World.

HORTICULTURAL HINTS.

We do not advise extensive melon
culture. The maj kets in summer are
usually glutted with melons.
Sweet corn comes up much sooner if
it is soaked over night in warm water,
and the crop is fit for use just that much
sooner.
Potatoes grow better if planted be-
fore beginning to sprout. The second
sprouts that start are not so strong as
the first.
If the trees need pruning, it is easier
to prune as soon as the necessity shows
itself than it is after several seasons
of neglect.
Potatoes will make good use of a
large quantity of coarse manure, wheth-
er it is plowed under or put on the land
after planting.
It is a good plan to mulch rasp-
berries, as it has been shown that
mulched plants will produce much bet
ter berries than those left unprotected
by drying winds.-Western Plowman.

ORCHARD COVER CROPS.
Their Value and Advantages Of
flcially RecOEnized by the AEr1-
cultural Department.

The growing of green crops in an
orchard should not be done with the
view of scattering crops for Use, but to
benefit the trees as covering. The
agricultural department has given this
matter its attention and pointed out the
advantages in special bulletin. A
cover crop, to serve as a blanket and
protect the soil, may be secured with the
use of mammoth clover, cow peas, buck
wheat, rye, crimson clover or anything
that will remain on the ground all win
ter. Cover crops, unlike those grown
throughout the season, do not, as rule,
injure the trees by drying out the soil,
and even where the weather during the
fall is normally dry, the injury is less
than in summer, since plants evaporate
less water from their leaves in the cool
er weather and shorter days of fall than
in the longer and hotter days of sum-
mer. Cover crops not only do not, as
a rule, dry out the soil injuriously, but
they also add directly to the moisture
holding capacity of the soil by the hui
mus formed in their decay, and they
hold much of the snow until it melts and
is absorbed by the soil. They are
also rarely as injurious as crops grown
throughout the entire season, and are
often beneficial because their growth
is made after the trees have stopped
growing and are maturing their wood
for winter. Trees make their greatest
growth early in the season, and there
fore require much less moisture the
latter part of the season than earlier
in the year. In fact, in some local
tiles it is considered an advantage to
cease cultivation by midsummer and
grow some secondary crop which will
check the growth of the trees and
cause them to mature before winter.
It has also been found that wherever
cultivation or irrigation has been kept
up late in the season, and the ground
in moist condition, with the trees
thrifty and growing, the frost did but
little damage.

done using into some other convenient
receptacle. If you have a basket
maker living at no great distance from
you las have) you can get him to make
a plain, strong open basket of the shape
as that shown in illustration, large
enough to hold about bushel of po-
tatoes. Or if such basket is not at
hand or cannot be procured, then you
can take a coarse gunny-sack and fill
it with potatoes. Whatever receptacle
you have, immerse it with the potatoes
into the tank or tub, and leave it in
about 90 minutes. Then lift the basket
or sack out of the liquid, empty the po-
tatoes out to dry, and fill with new lot
to go through the same performance.
When the potatoes are dry, cut as want
ed and plant. Do not let any of the
treated tubers lie around, as they are
liable to poison any animal that would
get hold of and eat them.-Farm and
Fireside.

SIMPLE GREENHOUSE:

abundant light to the front bed or
bench. A house of this character, and
of moderate size, may be rooted with
two rows of sashes seven feet long, the
lap or junction of the two sashes in
the center of the roof being support
ed by a wooden girder formed of a
piece of three by four stuff resting on
posts, the latter being spaced about
eight feet apart. This length of roof
would give house nearly 10 feet in
width, with front wall five feet high
and back wall 71a feet, and may be
divided into three beds or benches of
convenient width for working.-Rural

THE NEXT FRUIT CROP.
outlook Is Not Quite AZ Dishearten-
ing ~ 1t Would Appear to Most
on First Thought.

The coming season will not be as
noted for it's abundant crop of fruit
as last. The excessively cold winter
we can hardly expect to have much
more than a half or three-quarters of
q crop, and in some localities even less.
Consequently there was never sea-
son when more attention was needed
in the orchard, for by giving better
culture to the fruit it is possible to
make some amends for natures short
comings. There is always one redeem
ing feature about small crop. Prices
are apt to be higher, and this some
times brings them up to point where
profits are more satisfactory. In years
of excessive fruit yields the profits to
the growers have more than once been
SO small that they hardly paid for the
time and labor bestowed upon their
culture. A smaller crop with better
prices may not be so good to the con-
sumner, but it is apt to be better for
the farmers pocketbooks. Thus the
outlook for fruit growing this year
may not be quite as bad AS would ap-
pear at first thought. r. ~~-
But there is need of preparation for
it. More than ever is it necessary to
give the trees and vines good cultiva-
ton, and protect them from the raw
ages of insects and disease. There is
probably no orchard where the cul-
ture is so good that it could not be
improved a little. By studying the
trees carefully, and giving the best
attenti to the fewer number of trees
that have withstood the cold, we can
surely increase the yield to some ex-
tent. The outlook is not matter for
sorrow or regret so much as it is one
for renewed effort to better culture.
In the first place it will pay to go
through the orchard and cut out all
except the trees that promise a fair
crop. This is no time to nurse half
dead trees. Either cut them back, or
dig them up and replace them with
others, and then give all the atten-
ton to the remainder. Sometimes
there is life in tree, which will spring
up and thrive if the tree is cut back
enough, but if left just as it is it will
exhaust itself trying to distribute
itself over wide area. The pruning
knife is sometimes the best friend in a
season like this.-C. S. Walters, in Jour
| nal of Agriculture.

SEARCH FOR ANDREE
The Scandinavians Firmly Believe
That the Lost Explorer
IL Still Alive.

It is said that Baron Nordenskjold has
in his dining-room, at Stockholm, pho
tograph of the ascent of Andree's bal
loon and an empty space beside it to
which he pointed recently, as he said to
visitor: s..sg
"a photograph of Andree's landing
will be hung there, for am firmly con-
vinced that he will return
His confidence is shared by hansen
and most other Scandinavians who have
had experience in the arctic regions,
and it is not surprising, therefore, to
hear that they propose this season to
continue their quest for the intrepid
aeronaut. The leading search party
will be under the command of Prof.
Nathorst, who thinks it likely that An
dree and his two companions, Strind-
berg and Frankel, reached the coast OF
East Greenland and are still alive in
that region, where they may be subsist-
ing on musk oxen and other animals to
be found there. - s-.9s
The professor will accordingly start
in June next and try to force a passage
A1ouSA CuC lCc DdIT1er 10 CQe East
Greenland coast. If Andree is there
and was able to push on to Angmagsa-
Xix in &C degrees north latitude, he is
all right, for there is Danish station
at that point among the most northern
Eskimos of the east coast, and the sup
ply ship would bring Andree home
when she makes her annual visit next
summer. So Nathorst will not visit that
part of the coast, but will push much
farther north, to Cape Bismarck if pos
sible, and if he finds no trace of Andree
there he proposes to go further north
by sledge. The coast between Cape Bis
marck and Independence bay has not
been explored, and,if the professor has
occasion to make the proposed sledge
journey he will have a fine opportunity
to fill in long stretch of Greenland's
outline that is still unknown.
Mr.. Hammer, a merchant of Chris.
tiania, is equipping, at his own expense,
the steam whaler Recla for the journey,
and money is now raising in Sweden for
the other expenses of the expedition.
Nathorst may find it necessary to win
ter in Greenland, as the difficult naviga-
ton in the ice-choked coastwaters may
prevent the return of his vessel this sea-
son.-Chicago Journal.

black Knot in PLUMB.

Before warm weather comes all the
plum trees should be looked over, and
any that show marks of black warts
that indicate black knot should be re-
moved with a sharp knife and the
wound washed with carbolic acid So
luton or some other antiseptic. In fact,
it is a good plan to spray plum trees
with carbolic acid solution, made one
part of carbolic acid to 1000 parts of
water. This will remain on the spores
which are dormant during the winter
until they burst their bounds and begin
to spread the disease over the trees.
The solution named is much stronger
than can be applied after the foliage
is in its tender growth.
