London, Sept. 1S-Perry Belmont ar
rived in London last evening from
Paris, not having been in England
since July, nor having seen a reporter
while in Europe What purported to
be an interview with him, sent from
London to the United States on Sept,
6, was the result of an imposition on
the part of some one who, from what
appear to have been interested mo-
tives, represented himself to a reporter
in London as being Mr.. Belmont, and
expressed the views with regard to
American politics as cabled. Mr., Bel.
mont authorizes the statement that
he consistently holds to his already
published opinions in regard to the
financial doctrines of William Jen-
nings Bryan and the Chicago platform
which he will continue to oppose.

A good woman showed a party the de- caytng dungeons in which Abbe Faria and Edmond Dantes were immured and the visitors gazed at these ruins meditatively. 1t seems to me" said the narrator of the incident, "that these cells are very near to one an other, and Alexander Dumas describes them as being farther apart.

EMPIRE CLOTHING COMPANY,
Tha TrelskinR Wagon.

The South African wagon is a long, heavy cart mounted on four wheels. as rule, with a sort of canvas tent over the back half, leaving the front cleaF to carry the miscellaneous furniture of its owner, drawn by sixteen, eighteen or twenty oxen, euriously feree-Iook-
 ing with their immense spread of horn. sometimes as much as eight feet from tip to tip and rarely less than six. but In reality as patient and hard working beasts as one could wish to find. Their mode of progression is certainly slow. but there Is a strangeness and a fas- eination about 1t which may draw men to 1t almost as the Alps draw their deyolees. In front there marches the 'Voorlooper, generally small boy leading the two foremost oxen by a rein or rope passed through their nos trils. The driver walks alongside with the long and terrible whip he uses 30 unsparingly. or else sits on the front of the wagon and gets off occasionally to lash up the whole team with unfatI- ing impartiality. The travelling is all done at night, starting a little before sunset and marching until perhaps IL or l2 o'clock; then there Is a halt till a little before the first signs of dawn. when they go on again till the sun be- gins to get hot overhead, and then they lie for the day.

PIGEONS OF LONDON.

UT all the common sights of London none is more interesting than it's pi- geons, which bring a suggestion of old-world stateliness into the turmoil of the city. There is a particular flock for most all the big buildings of Lon- don. and they are to be found all over the city. A curious fact observed is that the birds on the east side of huge building have nothing to do with those on the west side, while the bird residents of the north and south sides Keep quite as much to themselves.
 The birds live a glorious life. for everybody pets them. The judges of tic law courts feed the pigeons. not 2s. but grain and such things as si Ike. Dozens of clerks in the law sEI5 offices scatter food for the birds .lE in Kings Bench walk. while the k eDer of a coffee house reHgiouslv brings bits of broken bread for his feathered friends.
 One of the prettiest sights is to see the pigeons which live on Che British museum There are half a dozen read CTS who make a practice of feeding the birds and the pigeons will abandon strangers who come with full hands for their old friends, even when they appear without food. The cabmen are great friends of the pigeons. which seem to realize these men are good friends to cultivate, for rarely is there one who will not scatter a handful of grain from the horses nosebaga

About Potatoes.

There is probably no crop largely grown that yields a better profit than the potato crop. Yet the per acre yield throughout the country is small, due very largely to poor methods in han ding the soil. The potato accommo- dates itself to many varieties of soil and to all kinds of culture. Perhaps this fact is taken advantage of to too great an extent, and not enough care used in any part of the process of pro- ducing the crop. When we consider that more than 1000 bushels of pota- toes have been raised on an acre in diff ferent parts of the country. and that sess than 100 bushels is the ordinary yield. we are forced to believe that we are not using all of our possible ads eantages.
 The first requisite is welI-prepared land, drained if it so requires. This good preparation means blowing deep enough to admit of the fullest growth of root. Whatever may be said against deep blowing yet 1t certainly has 8 tendency to send the roots down be- yond the summer drouth, which is often thing of great importance. The writer remembers a little corner in a potato patch in which coal ashes had been thrown. The ground thus in- creased in depth gave moisture to the plants when in all other parts of the patch they were dying for lack of moisture. The probable reason was that in that part the soil was so porous that the roots had been able to strike deep and to reach into a stratum of continuous moisture This is not to advocate the use of coal ashes as a fer tilizer for potatoes, but to illustrate the principle by which a loose soil permits the penetration of roots.
 As to milling there is great diversity of opinion. We know that it is be- coming quite popular to advocate the doing away of the old style of hill- ing, and to say that the idea of hill- ing was a barbarous one, originating among the bogs of Ireland. The whole settlement of the question must de- pend on circumstances. Some varieties have to be hilled anyway, unless We expect to have some of the potatoes on top of the ground. The question of moisture runs into that of milling. 4 certain man some years ago abandoned the hilling process and planted all of his potatoes on the level. It happened to be an exceptionally wet summer and the entire crop was damaged by lying too much in the water Killing would have done some good in this case.
