IT. Had the Wrong Man.

Athletic parsons are not always
lucky in their attempts to show their
prowess. While strong curate in
the southeastern district, who can use
his fists when required, was making q
parochial visit he heard screams from
a side street and learned that a woman
had been assaulted. "Where is the
blackguard who did it?" he exclaimed;
and a polite little boy pointed out a
man who was turning corner some
distance away. The curate promptly
ran after him. seized him by the coat
collar, and dragged him back to the
place of the assault, amid the ap-
plause of a considerable crowd.
"Why, that amt the party that did
it," said the lady, when the victim
was shown to her-''that amt my
husband. And, besides, what are
you interferin' with other peoples af-
fairs for?" The curate apologized to
the inoffensive man he had seized, but
is threatened with an action for illegal
rest.-London Telegraph.

Notes of the Crusade.

Wherever there's drink there's danger.
1t is essential to good military service
that the soldiers be clear-headed, moral
and healthy, and their nervous systems
should not be weakened by alcoholic
drinks. The army "canteen" is an abom-
ination, as well as any other saloon. 1t
should go.
The proprietora OF q mandatory, store
or printing office, employing large num-
ber OF hands, would be considered very un-
wise II they added a liquor saloon or beer
garden as an appendage to their establish
ments. Such places would demoralize the
men and impair their health and efficiency.
A saloon in military camp is still worse.
The evidence multiplles that beer and
whisky undermined the strength OF our
soldier boys and made them easy victims
Of disease.
The Presbyterian Synod Of Illinois, in
session at Bloomington, passed n resolu-
tion pledging the Presbyterian Church to
| prohibit as the most effective plan for deal
ing with intemperance.
The Christian and temperance people OF
this country must rise up and demand that
army and navy authorities prohibit anyone
from selling strong drink Of any kind to
the soldiers and sailors in the service of the
United States. This is the only way to
break up the terrible drunkenness among
our volunteer soldiers.
| DIR. Cuyler makes thesweeping assertion
that all saloons, from the gilded ones tC
the slummy ones, are poverty breeders
scenes Of plunder and robbery, and the
drinkers are public impoverishers.
1t is no exaggeration to say that three
fourths OF the saloonkeepers OF New Yorl
State are In n state of financial collapse
They are kept above water only through
the backing and help they receive from tn

TIL. Crar n uleiandman,

An important discovery has been
made by contributor to the new
number of the Proceedings of the
Anglo Russian Literary Society" The
Romanovs-the ruling family of Rus
sia-derive their descent from Andrew
Campbell, Scotsman. The Gar of
all the Russias is by descent a High
landman, and the McCallum More is
his tribal or clan chief. Andrew Camp
bell, the progenitor of the Romanovs,
found his way across the Continent
through Russia to Moscow, to the
Court of the Grand Duke Alexander
Nevsky, and his descendants rose to
high positions there. The Gar Ivan
Vasilievitch married q daughter of one
Of these Moscow Campbells. and this
lady became known to history as the
Empress "Anastasia Romanovna. 1t
was from her brother Nikita that the
Romanovs descended. Further evil
dence, you see, in favor of the asser-
ton that Scotchman will be found
at the north pole when it is discovered.

Shelter For the Cattle.

One of the prime requisites for
handling cattle in any way is shelter;
moderate expenditure in this direc-
ton saves money.
An outlay of 500 will put up a shed
100 feet long and of sufficient width
to accommodate 100 cattle on full feed
and furnish a dry place for sleeping in
muddy weather.
1t is as much of mistake to turn
stockers into a stock field to shift for
themselves without shelter through
out the winter as to full feed cattle in
a lot where there is little or no ''wind-
break, " and where snow, slush or mud
may be the resting place. A feed lot
knee deep in mud retards fattening,
makes work harder, loses waste to the
hogs, and when finished, cattle shipped
to market from such surroundings
their killing qualities are often over
looked because of their filthy condi

Throat. and Electric Lights.

The difference in the condition OF
the throats of public speakers and sing
ers since the introduction of the cleo
trio light is most marked. They have
less irritation and less WEAKNESS dur
ing and after their performance. This
is accounted for on the theory that gas
and other flames dried out the atmos-
phere and consumed atmospherical
elements necessary to the best condi.
ton of the organs. In addition to
this, the temperature is more even and
ihere is less danger from air currents.
Where any great number of gas jets
are used, the air at the ceiling of the
room has the vitality totally burned
out of it, and is heated to very high
temperature. An open door or win
dow letting in fresh air creates violent
agitation in the air, sometimes sets
gusts of air whirling through a room,
especially at the somewhat raised por-
ton, where the performers are stu
ated. A specialist in throat troubles
thinks that what is known as singers
sore throat may become less frequent
when electric lights are universally
adopted.

MoistsnInr and Soaking Feeds.

Soaking grain feeds for cattle and
hogs is quite generally recommended
and the tests made by numerous ex-
pertinent stations seem to support this
general opinion. In nearly every case
where pigs were experimented with
the animals ate more of the wet food
and made larger gains on it. 1t must
be admitted, however, that the addi-
tional gain was usually due to the
larger amount of feed eaten and not
to its moist condition. The Kansas
station soaked shelled corn for five
steers until it began to soften. An
other lot of five was fed dry corn.
Those given soaked feed ate 2S2 BUSH
els, while the others ate 900. The
first lot gained 164 pounds more than
the others, difference of s25. so in
favor soaking. From this the station
concludes that it pays to soak corn for
steers if this can be done for six cents
or less. Soaking wheat for pigs is
quite generally recommended.

tRalsing Asparagus profltabIr.

There is no summer vegetable crop
more profitable than asparagus if the
plants have proper care. The plot
must be kept in a high state of rich
ness and cultivation, and much of the
important work in this direction may
be done now before winter sets in.
The first thing to be done at this time
is to cut off the tops of the plants and
clear the bed entirely of weeds, for
the weedy asparagus bed is the profit
less one. After this is thoroughly
done the bed should be covered three
inches deep with coarse manure, which
will enrich the soil, and, what is more
important, keep out the frost. Thus
protected during the winter the plants
will be laying up strength and energy
for the spring.
In early spring, as soon as the frost
is out of the ground, the coarse man
ure should be removed and all of the
fine particles forked carefully in the
soil, being careful not to injure the
crown of the plant with the tine of the
fork. If the soil is not sufficiently
rich, add more fine manure and forl
it in all over the bed. This treatment
is inexpensive, but will result in heavy
crops ana make decided differences
in the size of the edible shoots. Th,
plan is after the practice of the mos
successful asparagus growers Of tn,
country. Atlanta Journal.

A Whisky Drummer.

A whisky drummer, who has sold the
liquid damnation for twenty-five years
past, stood in the Globe Hotel the other
day and made speech that ought to make
every temperance man shake hands with
himself. He said:
"In this section of the country the sale
OF whisky is decreasing every year. We
sell less and less Of 1t with each succeeding
year. People have quit drinking. II is no
longer considered in good form to swill 1t.
drunken man is disgrace. A tippler
can not hold job anywhere that is re-
spectacle and progressive. The railroads
won't have him, neither will anybody else.
The sentiment is getting stronger against
1t all the time. The teacher, the preacher,
and the paper are all creating sentiment
against hard drinking. In twenty years
from now the whisky problem will have
solved itself. Beer, soda-water, lemonade,
milk shake and other light beverages will
have crowded 1t out OF the saloon and the
drug store into the medicine chest OF the
doctor. ."-Centralia (Kan.) Courier.

ni-rimah Discussion.

In the story of the Indian mutiny,
by J.W. Scherer, the author describes
an Englishman, John Power, as
gifted with whatmay be called audacity
of courage. One night while the Eng
lish were encamped in a somewhat
warm locality, Power, Scherer and
Gregson, a minister, went to visit the
posts on the extreme right.
Most of the way we skirted along
the bank which had been thrown up,
and where, at short intervals, soldiers
were seated ready to start up and fire
if occasion should call. The walk
seemed safe aud quiet, but there were
occasional bright spaces lighted by
the shining moon, where ones figure
came out distinctly, and might have
formed very good mark for anything
in the trees or buildings near.
Mr.. Gregson, as minister of relig-
ion, and l, the father of family,
thought it advisable to cross these
patches at double-quick, but nothing
would induce John Power to accelerate
his saunter.
"What are you afraid Off" cried he.
"Oh" said /, vaguely, wishing to
justify my action, II do not care about
myself"
''Then please to say" continued my
imperturbable companion, stopping in
one of the bright patches to dispute
the point, "for whose sake you do

Where Red Clover Grows.

Red clover grows best upon deep
and well drained calcareous loans. 1t
is not so we'll adapted to the lighter
sandy soils, to heavy compact clays,
nor to gumbo prairie soils. Under
drainage and a plentiful supply of
rainfall during the season before flow
ering have marked influence on the
yield. Red clover is the standard
hay crop of the Northern and New
England States, and is becoming
every year more widely cultivated in
the central prairie region. In the
South and in the Pacific Coast and
Rocky Mountain States other crops
are more successful, and there red
clover is only grown in localities
where the soil conditions favor it.
The seed is usually sown with
grain from March to May or, when in
tended for a spring soiling crop, from
the middle of July to the first OF Au-
gust, without nurse crop. Twenty
pounds of seed are required per acre.
The first crop Of hay Is ready to cut
in June. The second crop is gener-
ally considered the best for seed, but
the condition which governs seed pro-
duction is the prevalence and abun-
dance of bumblebees, upon which the
clover blossoms are dependent for
fertilization. The yield of seed per
acre varies from three to nine bushels
of sixty pounds. Farm, Field and

On the occasion of visit to his ma

one citizen, who had been prevented
from going to listen to the speech in

been present how the distinguished

said the other; 81 should think they

have been related to the long-suffering
landlady who was compelled to put up
with some very noisy and unruly

the night hideous with their unseemly
revellings. She confded her woes to
a sympathetic friend: There's no

rut,lnr Straw wien corn.talk..

Farmers who are putting into the
barn or stack cornstalks which are too
damp to keep well can insure safety
by occasionally throwing forkful of
dry grain straw in the middle of the
stack or NOV. This viii absorb some
of the moisture and prevent the stalks
from heating to excess. We always
liked to have the c,rnstalks go
through enough fermentation to soften
them, and if put up while there is
still some sweet sap in the stalk, they
will do it. The cattle eat them moro
readily, and they are also more nutri-
tious. In severe, cold winter, when
cornstalks have been repeatedly froz-
en-, all the juices are dried out of them
and they are very poor feeG sor any
