To Stop Growth of Horns.

To Stop Growth of Horns.
For stopping the growth of horns
upon calves this mixture has been sue
cessfully used in experiments conduct
ed by the United States Department Of
Agriculture Bureau of Animal Indus
try. Take fifty parts caustic soda,
twenty-five parts Of kerosene oil, and
twenty-five parts Of water. An emul-
sion is made of the oil and soda by
heating and vigorously stirring, and
this is then dissolved in water. The
mixture should be placed in a bottle
with a solid rubber cork. The calves
should not be over three weeks old,
from five to twenty days being the
proper age. A horn will sometimes be
killed that is even from four to six
weeks old, but it can not be depended
upon with certainty. In applying the
solution the following directions should
be observed: With a pair of scissors
clip the hair around the embryo horn
so as to expose spot about the size of
a nickel While an assistant holds the
calf securely drop two or three drops
of the mixture on the horn, and with the
ends of the rubber cork rub it thor
oughly in over the bare spot. Apply
the fluid first to one horn, then the
other, until each has received three or
four applications. The rubbing should
be continued until the caustic has soft
ened and removed the hair and surface
skin around the horn. Care should be
taken that the fluid does not spread
over too large a surface or run down
the side of the face.-The Jersey Hus-
tier.
Moisture and Strawberries.
Although strawberry plants will not
thrive where the soil is permanently
wet, they do require abundant mois-
ture both during the growing and
fruiting seasons. The non-observance
Of this requirement is the occasion Of
heavy losses. In the first place, the
ground for strawberries is often left
until planting time before blowing, and
breaks up in clods, occasioning much
labor in preparation with harrow and
roller. Although it may be possible to
put such a soil into fairly good condi-
ton for planting, the water which has
been lost cannot be restored, and weeks
may elapse before sufficient rain falls
to keep the plants alive.
1t has been shown that more than
1900 barrels of water per acre may
escape from unplowed ground in one

SACRED CONCERT.
Wachusett Boat Club Makes Arrange
ments for One in Park Theatre.

Wachusett Boat Club held meeting
in st. Jean Baptiste Hall, Bartlett
place, yesterday afternoon, to make
plans for the sacred concert which the
club will manage in Park Theatre.
Sunday evening, Feb. rs. Tickets were
distributed which win be exchangeable
for seats in the house a few DAYS be-
fore the date of the concert. No per-
son Will be allowed more than 10 seats.
the purpose of this regulation being
to prevent spectators getting the best
seats in the house and disposing of
them at advanced prices.
The club itself will have nothing to
do with the selection of artists for the
concert beyond giving it's approval.
Manager Shea of the theatre has been
given carte blanche in this respect. Tie
will engage the best talent he can get,
There is some talk Of having two Wor-
cester singers in the concert, and a
place will probably be given them on
the program. They are DR.. A. j. Har-
pin and John Fl. Reardon, both of
whom are well known for their abili
ties as singers. The name of Thomas
Clifford of Boston, who has appeared
several times in Worcester in sacred
concerts and memorial services of the
Elks, is mentioned as one of the par
Elephants, and the chances are he will
appear, unless he has another engage
ment.

SHE'S A FINANcIER.
Mrs. Inman n. Wilcox Has Done Great
Work for Her Church.

Another illustration of the great ex-
ecutive ability demonstrated by Mrs.
Inman H. Wilcox. wife of the Rev. In
man H. Wilcox. pastor of Park
Church, in the administration of the
affairs Of the church, has been given
In Wiping out the debt on the organ
of the edifice. After most pronounced
success In wiping away the debt on
the church itself, Mrs. Wilcox attack
ed the organ debt, and now it is stated
that the debt of $500 is assuredly a
thing Of the past.
Mrs. Wilcox has $500 pledged to her
provided that the remaining $500 neces-
sary is raised by the church. To this
end, a grand concert is to be given at
the church Feb. 21st by Mrs. May
Sleeper-Ruggles and Charles H. Grout
Tickets are now on SALE and it is
hoped that the church will raise 500
by this musical affair. II the sum is
secured. the $500 pledged will be paid.
The only burden that now hangs over
the church is the $4,000 mortgage. AL
ready Rev. Mr.. Wilcox has secured
the interest. or $500, and this year the
entire amount has been given by men,
bers of his congregation, which estab-
fishes precedent which is very graf
flying to the church. No move to the
cancellation of the mortgage will be
made for probably two years.

LENTEN REGULATIONS.

Regulations for the government of
the faithful were read in the Catholic
churches yesterday, at the various SER
vices. Tine regulations We're printed in
full in The Spy yesterday. In the
matter of fasting, the regulations are
not as strict as they were few years
ago, an induIt to extend over 10 years
having been granted by the pope. The
use of meat for workingmen and their
families is allowed. and as there are
few who do not include themselves un-
der that title. the regulation is practi-
cally dead letter The rigorous win
ters of this country and the necessity
of eating meat to sustain life and heat
are responsible for the indult. In the
devotional exercises, there is no laxitv
of the regulations for the season. The
lenten season will be opened with a
solemn high mass Wednesday morning
and at all services held that day. the
foreheads of the congregation win he
marked with ashes to signify the he
ginning of the season of penitence. The
ashes are those of the blessed naIm
used on Palm Sunday Of the previous
year Every Wednesday evening dur

cross will be visited

made a reconnaissance of the gold de-
posits of the southern Appalachians,
and that the field work was far from
satisfactory. Scarcely half a dozen
mines were in active operation, and in
most cases old trenches and dumps
only were accessible.
The Carolinian belt is included in the
southern Appalachian group, and in his
official report, Mr.. Becker states that
much the most important mine on the
belt is the Halle, in Lancaster county
,. O., that it is the only mine in the
south which has for a congidera BILE
number of years past paid dividends.
one OF the most startling discoveries
IN looking over the report of Mr.. Beck
er, Is the fact that nowhere in his very
exhaustive treatment of the Carolinian
belt, nor even upon the very carefully
prepared map which he exhibits. is
there any mention of the Uwharri,
Honeycut or the Little Fritz. That fact
IN itself ought to give those who have
invested or who are intending to invest
IN those mines. something to think
over. There is every reason to believe
that thousands of dollars have been
laid down in Worcester upon the rep
RESERVATIONS regarding those particular
properties.
He states it as his Judgment that all
the rocks of the Carolnian belt carry
solo deposits, put questions the wealth
thereln. The connection between vol
canlc phenomenon and ore deposition
IS very clear at some point. AT the
Hale mine, for example, a system of
heavy diabase bikes intersects the
country. These dikes are somewhat
decomposed in contact with the ore.
but themselves carry little or no
gold.
In referring to the South Mountain
district, he says: The only mines at
which any work is being done are the
Hancock placer and the Marie Bullion,
ana little is to be seen at either. The
Golden Valley is place which has pro-
duced gold, but is not now being work
ed, and was told on good authority
that there is nothing worth being seen
there. There are many other points
at which gold has been obtained in that
region, but the localities mentioned are
believed to be the only ones at which
there has been any notable produc-
ton
In view of the fact that so much
money has gone out from here to be
invested in these Carolinian properties.
and no mention is made of them In the
othclal reports of Investigations made
while these stocks were Just being
placed upon the market, 1t would seem
as though an official Investigation
would be the proper thing for the Wor-
cester shareholders.

brates It's Anniversary.

The seventh anniversary of the estab-
lishment of the Armenian Congregation
al Church in Worcester was celebrated
in fitting manner at the vestry of
Plymouth church yesterday. Nearly
$50 Armenians and their friends were
present, and listened with wrapt atten.
ton to the different speakers. The.
singing of the quartet, Victor Barak-
ian, M. i. Mahagian, Miss Flora Bar

the trials the Armenian people have
had in Turkey and assured them that
the people of Worcester sympathized
with them, and We're ready and willing

STRONG DISCOURSE.
Opportunities of Youth'outlined at Park
Church,

Rev. Inman H. Wilcox preached an
able and scholarly discourse at, Park
Congregational church yesterday morn
ing. The general attendance at the
morning services throughout the city
was small, but at Park church so peo-
pie were undaunted by the intensity Of
the storm and occupied seats in their
regular pews.
Rev. Mr.. Wilcox took for his text:
Ecclesiastes Xi:9-"Rejoice, o young
man, In thy youth. and let thy heart
cheer thee in the days of thy youth,
and walk in the ways Of thine heart
and in the sight of thine eyes; but know
thou, that for all of these things, God
will bring thee unto judgment"
The speaker said that the action of
the present decides future destiny
What we do today decides what we Will
reap and harvest tomorrow.
The youth should rejoice in the pres
ent because it Is the time of choice The
youth should rejoice because it is the
time of opportunity. The youth walks
as his heart prompts because it leads
to his choice, and he walks in the sight
OF his eyes because he sees the posi-
bilities before him. At this time every
young man has spread before him the
opportunities of his life.
The young man has the material with
which to work and the power to choose,
but after the choice has been made and
the object placed before him, he must
stand judgment.
A guide to choice should be thought
of the future Judgment The youth
shall enjoy the fruit of his choice, reap
the harvest of the seed that he sows in
his choice. The fruit and harvest are
according to the sowing. Good should
be the fundamental principle in the
choice of the youth, and he should be
prepared every moment for future
judgment.
Rev. Mr.. Wilcox referred to the ia
nous dark days of 1880. 1t was then
thought that the day Of Judgment had
arrived. and Col Davenport advised
those about him that if it was the last
day then God should find his people
doing and Herewith the candles were
brought forth. What the harvest is, is
what we are sowing now. If the harvest
should be that of Christian, then sow
the seed of a Christian now.

PLEASURE ONLY.
Rev. DIR. King Thinks That
the Tendency of the Age.

Il wonder if, at the present time, our
young people are not inclined to want
life all pleasure, and if they are not
inclined to turn q house of worship
into an amusement house"
Such were the caustic words on the
great tendency of the younger gener-
alton of America today, which were
uttered by Rev. DR.. George w. King
at the evening service at Trinity
Church. Sunday. The subject of the
evening discourse was a very solemn
one, as DR.. King told his congregation,
and this led to a rebuKe to his congre-
cation.
While in the midst or his address, his
congregation let their gaze wander TO
the door, and noticing the direction of
their glances, DR.. King said with great
earnestness: Il wish the brothers and
sisters would. keep their eyes away
from the door, and l am sure our
friend, The Spy reporter. will look af-
ter his own business
The topic of the evening was THE
one sin that is not forgiven" Rev. DR..
King was very eloquent, and his earn
est words left a deep impression upon
the hearts of his large congregation of
hearers. The next was Matthew xii al
30, Wherefore, 1 say unto you, all
manner of sin and biasphemy shall be
forgiven unto men; but the blasphemy
against the Holy Ghost shall not be
forgiven unto them
And whosoever speaketh a word
against the son of man, it shall be for
given him, but whatsoever speaketh
against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be
forgiven him, neither in this world,
neither in the world 10 come
Rev. DR.. King said that there is a
point of SHINING beyond which there is
no repentance. Esau affords an illus
tration. In selling his birthright for a
mess of pottage, he s:nned against the
son of man, and his sin is not for
given. We have other illustrations
where the life has been such that when
repentance is sought, it can not be
found there being an irreparable point
beyond which there is no forgiveness.
So it is in temporal affairs, we can not
recover for lost opportunity. There are
always times and conditions, when in
this world we can not regain what we
have deliberately lost, and It is so in
the world that is to come,
Shining deliberately, consciously, and
continuously against the light of truth,
is SHINING against the Holy Ghost. A
man can sin against the Holy Ghost
by resenting the light that is given
him.
Man sins against tie Holy Ghost
when he cherishes hatrel for Christian
things, hatred for the church, hatred
for God. People can so sin as to be
lost. Another sin against the Holy
Ghost is indifference for things Chris
tian. and the sin may be committed
gradually.
