INTENSIVE CULTURE.

A method of intensive culture which
has made some money for me is to
pillow a plot of ground in the fall, and
manure it heavly during the winter,
then harrow it in the spring, as soon
as 1 can work the ground, and with a
one-horse corn-planter plant the earli-
est varieties of peas in rows of 21k feet
horse and cultivator until some time in
May, when plant early corn with the
corn-planter between each alternate
row of peas, leaving alternate rows va
cant from which to pick the peas. The
peas are marketed the last of June
ground. BY this time corn will have
made quite large growth, and the
space between the rows can be cult
waited and set to celery, cabbages, tur-
nips or ported strawberry plants; CT
Hubbard squash can be planted in the
corn rows the last of May. and the
vines will occupy the ground between
the rows of corn after the peas have
been removed. Another profitable
combination of crops is to grow early
bunch onions from sets, and follow
them with second crop of celery, cab

MY STRING OF PEARLS.

had string of lovely pearls;
Two noble boys, two wee, fair girls;
Strung on the rainbow ribbon-hope;
A clasp beneath each snow white
throat
A golden clasp-strong, pure and fine
Wrought from the gold of love divine:
A love eternal as the song
Upon the Savior's natal morn,
Sung by the angels, clear and sweet,
While kneeling at Jehovah's feet:
Fell soft and sweet as April rain.
Alasi My rainbow-ribbon, hope,
Was frail as fair; too soon it broke
And half my pearls, despite my tears,
Slipped off. The agony of years
Seemed crowded into those few hours,
When first saw my pearIy flowers
Lie crushed! o God! those hours of
pain!
o, may their like ne'er come again!
So sudden fell my first sweet pearl
My little, loving, lisping girl
i could not feel that it was death;
Not even when / saw her breath
Was gone-her heart was still
l did not say, Father, thy will,
Not mine, be DONE" Nay, do not chide,
For the kind angel by my side
Said it and gently sealed my lips,
While DER me passed deaths first

My string of lovely pearls unbound,
And took my laughing boy away
For ''Lexia's" sake. What could l say?

The angel said, Thy will, o Cod"
These shadows, like the ocean spray,
Damps all the blooms of sunny May

FOR WIFE AND kids"

In the Great Book, somewhere, where
the deeds of heroes are recorded, the
name of John MCGOWAN must stand
close to the top. Not on the field of
battle has John MCGOWAN won honor,
nor in the excitement that generates a
desire to save human life. A hero in
devotion to his wife and children
that is John MCGOWAN, and the little
history of it forms one of the most
pathetic stories that has ever come out
of that great repertory of pathetic
stories-Bellevue Hospital
MCGOWAN is an ironworker. He is
big, and brawny, and sober, and there
is look in his eyes that makes an
observer feel like shaking hands with
him. He has wife who is thin and
tired from many years of household
cares, but John MCGOWAN loves her
just as well as when she was buxom
and rosy. And the "kids!" Well, you
should have seen the Fourth of July
John MCGOWAN gave them!

the animal off, but refrained from
hurting it, and when it was driven
away it was found that his right hand
was fearfully lacerated. He walked to
Bellevue and had the wounds dressed.
but there was an expression of surprise
IN his honest eyes when the doctors
asked him to remain.
Why, men," said MCGOWAN, whats
the matter with you? That's only a

little kids if got out of work now.

Away went John MCGOWAN. his face
pale and his teeth set. The doctors
watched him admiringly.
He'll come back" they said.
And come back he did, but not until
he had done his days work for the
WIFE and the little kids. He staggered
into the hospital about o'clock last
night, with his hand swollen to thrice
its normal size.

EAST INDIAN vEGETAh,ANs

Ernest NJ. Bowden in the Nineteenth
Century reports a chat with Raia
Sivaprasad on Jainism. The jams
pay more regard to the feelings of the
lower animals than any other sect in
the world; will not kill them or in
jure them, are careful to avoid destroy
ing even insects, sometime nearing a
handkerchief over the mouth to pre-
vent any living creature being breathed
in. 1t may be argued that this tender
ness will prove in the long run fatal
to its possessors, handicapping them
seriously in the struggle for life with
less scrupulous rivals. As evidence
to the contrary, Mr.. Bowden points to
the jams: Notwithstanding the OPP
position, il not active prosecutions, of
bygone times. the one small sect
which, more than any other in the
world, has taught and practiced the
doctrine of 'ahimsa, or 'non-injury' to
living creatures, stands today, after
some four-and-twenty centuries, by
far the most prosperous community in
a population verging on 100000, 0000."

JAIL DELIVERY.
THRED MEN ESCAPE FROM HAMP-
TOMS NEW PRISON.

LON . NEW PRlSON.
One Of the boldest jail deliveries ever
accomplished in this section Of Vir-
GINA was made Tuesday night, when
Ernest Stevenson and Frank Bell. two
white men. and Thomas Mills. colored.
MADE their escape from the handsome
new Jail at Hampton.
The prisoners were incarcerated In
cells on the second floor. which has
wall the thickness Of seven bricks. Sc
curing some old iron bed springs they
cut hole through the building large
enough for their bodies to pass through
with ease. and 1t Is thought they must
nave used a rope to slide down to the
ground. distance of twenty feet.
1t Is not known by the jailor what
time they began their work. but It must
nave been begun early in the night.
The hole In the wall was discovered
by some of the prisoners yesterday
morning. who at once gave the alarm.
Sheriff Curtis and several of the off
GERS started out in pursuit of the es-
capped prisoners. but up to late yester-
day afternoon nothing had been heard
OF them.
The two white men were charged
with vagrancy. and 1t was understood
that they are wanted by the Washing
ton authorities Mills was serving
term OF ninety days for n misdcmcanor.
This makes five prisoners VINO have
escaped from the Jail in the past two
weeks, but two have been recapturcd.
