Culture of Water Cress.

Salads now form an important part of the bil. of fare at all hotels, and water cress is extensively used for salad making as well as for garnishing many meats and vegetables. There are many farms ill the country through which streams of water flow that might be prottably utilized in growing cress. The plant belongs to the family of aquatics and prefers a situation along the loamy banks of running streams. The running brook is an ideal place for water cress, and as such streams seldom freeze, the cress. being covered with water, is not injured in cold weather, The seeds may be sown in July, simply being scattered over the water to find suit able Judgement along the bank, or cut tings may be set in the mud along the banks of streams at any time, prefer ably in midsummer, when the water is low. When cuttings are used the mud about them must be firmly pres sed down to prevent them from being washed out by the ebb and flow.
 The cress crop is easily gathered, shears being used to clip the tops as they rise out of the water They are marketed from Christmas until late spring and always bring good prices yielding three or four crops during the season.

Seventh Son.

A popular superstition that has q re- markabIy tenacious hold in many parts of the world is q belief in the luck of a seventh son. A weaver named
 Doctor Talbot was charged at London police court the other day with travelling on q railway without having paid his fare. The prisoner said that Doctor was his Christian name, and be had had it given him because he was the seventh son of a seventh son, and therefore possessed the gift of healing. in an English graveyard is the fol- lowing inscription: "A. Sheperd, the third seventh daughter, Doctress." In Lupton's Notable Things" edition 1860, we find: Tt is manifest by ex- perience that the seventh male child by just order (never girl or wentch being born between) doth heal only with touching, through a natural gift, the kings evil, which is a special gift of God, given to kings and queens, as daily experience doth witness" In France, especially in the Orleans dis trict, the seventh son is called mar con: he possesses healing powers and is marked on the left side with a fleur- de-lis. On the border the seventh son is marked with seven stars, and 1t is interesting to find that individuals of this class not only possess inherent healing powers, but it is the usual custom to bring them up as doctors"

FertiIizing Meadows.

Unlike clovers, the grasses usually sown for meadows do not gather much if any nitrogen from the aid, although it is all important to their best growth. Quantities of conner cial fertilizers have been used on grass lands with but indifferent re- suits. In all cases it has been clearly proven that stable manures, with some chemical fertilizer of nitrogen ous nature, bring the best results, not only in increased yields, but in adding to the food value of the grasses that valuable element protein. Any form of nitrogenous fertilizer will do for application to grass lands, provided also that it gis not too expensive. 1t is not to be inferred that mineral fer tilizers are to be abandoned, for they add to the soil element needed by the grasses, but wherever they are used some fertilizer containing nitrogen in good quantities should always accom- pany them. In the use of nitrogen for meadows, next to stable manureS or to augment them, nitrate of soda is the least expensive to use. Manure from well-fed stock added to the ni- trate of soda will supply the needed nitrogen in quantities sufficient to show decided increase in the quantity and quality of the crop. The mineral fertilizers need not be used ill large quantities, nor more often than every two years if the yearly application is of the nitrogenous fertilizers men, toned

One If the oldest maritime fictions has received it's deathblow by the rais- ing of tbe American flag over Guam, in the Ladrone islands. According to sailors, thousands of vessels cleared for Guam from ports all over the world each year, but none ever arrived there. Clearing for Guam was done by ships which wished to conceal their real des, tination. According to maritime law. when once a vessel has cleared for $ port is must proceed there by the most direct route or give satisfactory ex- pIanation. Guam was a closed port under the Spanish rule and ships could always give that as reason for not go- ing there after having cleared for the place

Porto Rican Hotels Are Hot.

The best hotel in San Juan, Porte Rico, charges $2 a day, but the sleep ing rooms all open into courts, have no outside windows and are to the last extremely hot. Under Spanish law, in towns where houses join, no outside windows are allowed. This is to avoid the danger of dirt from the interior blowing on to the adjacent roofs and eontaminating the water, as all the supply is collected from the rainfall on the roofs and stored in cisterns.

The Fabulous Sum That Has Been Paid
 For This Flower.


 The fuss made about this flower and the extrayagapt prices offered for it by New York and Chicago flower fanciers has created a sort of carnation mania, almost similar to the famous tulip mania that turned the sedate, steady going people of Holland upside down in the seventeenth century. Nothing in the history of flowers ever approached that. Holland, especially in the vicinity of Haarlem, was then and is now the home of the tulip bulb. They are most sedulously cultivated and form an important item in the ex- port budget. As q gambling mania, a wild scramble of silly spectators, a ehimera that swallowed up entire for. tunes of the unlucky and on the other hand laid the foundation of great Dutch fortunes that exist to-day, the tulip mania rivals in history the South Sea bubble of England. Men paid fabulous sums for a single bulb. Ad- miration of the flower and interest in

Time for Exercise

About mid-afternoon is the best time for gentle outdoor exercise. Early morning exercise is as much to be avoided as early mental or physical labor, because at that time vitality is at it's lowest ebb, and it needs stimu- Iation rather than further taxing; none but the gentlest exercise should be taken until the exhausted system has been supplied with abundant nourisb- zs.&

BOLD DASH FOR LIBERTY.
BUT OFFICERS ACT PRonPTLY,
While being Fed Thursday Afternoon
Nichols Knocks down Mr.. Tandy
and FIees, Taking with him the
Sheriff's Rifle - He is Captured
i'm T. A. Callahan's Barn.

At $50 Thursday afternoon, Stoc-.
kel, Nickols and Moran. inmates of
the county Jail, attempted to carry
out bold plan for escape, and but
for the prompt action of the village
and county officers would have gain
ed their liberty,
Suspecting nothing Mr.. Tandy
started to feed the prisoners Thurs
day afternoon. At the given signal,
Moran, the ''trusty" feigned locking
the other prisoners in their cells.
Then as Mr., Tandy opened the door
he sprang at him and overthrow him.
But the jailer was active and had the
prisoner on his back just as Nichols
the safe cracker of Glenwood rushed
out and began beating Mr.. Tandy
with three -cornered club. Nichols
then passed through the anteroom
and breaking into the sheriff's office
seized Colt rifle and belt of cart
ridges and jumped out of the window.
At this point the alarm had be-
come general and Deputy Pepper
was on the ground and prevented the
escape of the other prisoners. He
then set out in pursuit of Nichols
whom he rounded up in the carp of I.
A. Callahan. Here by the arguments
of Night Watchman Ryan, the fellow
deemed it the part of wisdom to give
himself up, first passing down his
Colt rifle butt first. This rife, by
the way, was luckily of no use to
Nichols for he could not operate the
safety lock. Otherwise the affair
might have had a different ending,
for Nichols, clearly intended to use it
when cornered.
When the cells were searched for
relics" yesterday, there were found
heavy pieces of iron which had been
pried from the cells, a heavy sharp
stone which had probably been picked
out of the coal; several pieces of
wood some used for prying off the
IRON and others for light at night; a
couple of knives made from odd
pieces of steel.
Mr.. Tandy is very severely cut
about the head, but it is hoped that
his injuries will quickly heal.
Great credit is due to the village
police for the part they took in the
capture of Nichols. Otherwise
Deputy Pepper would have been
alone with the chances against him.

ODD FELLOWS CELEBRATE.
Local Lodge Goes to Herman for
their 8oth Birthday.

Between twenty and thirty Odd
Fellows and Rebekahs from Crystal

Herman Wednesday to celebrate
their S0th anniversary with the

Ofthe happy event the Herman
Enterprise says:
yesterday marked the eightieth
anniversary of Odd Fellowship, and
Harmony Lodge of this village cele-
brated the event in manner befitting
men who are loyal to their order.
The brothers of Donnelly and Nor
ris had been invited to participate
and twenty-four people came up.
The Odd Fellows were of course ac-
companied by their Rebekahs.) The
heavy rain which fell during the
evening did not dampen the spirit
nor spoil the event. A supper was
served in the societys hall and about
$50 an adjournment was made to
Stoneburg's hall where the general
public had been invited to join
with them. A very interesting pre-
gram consisting of songs, music,
speeches and literary selections en-
tertained the crowd which completely
filled the hall, and at it's completion
fruit was passed around, and soon
after when the orchestra struck up a
lively waltz, very few could resist the
temptation to take whirl at it; the
preachers discreetly beating re-
