THE sPENAzUMA AGAIN.

We print elsewhere in this number
 of The Republican further particulars of the Spenazuma mining scheme
 which strengthen in every way the
 courageous position taken by Gov
 ernor Murphy against the mining stock
 jobbers operating in this territory.
 The Republican had the pleasure of
 being the first newspaper to expose
 the Spenazuma swindle. Its spec.al
 mining correspondent visited the
 scene of the company's operations, in
 terviewed the miners who had SUD-
 piled the ere that was exhibited to
 the stockholders brought from the
 east by special train at the company's
 expense, and wrote a comprehensive
 story of the deception being practiced
 upon the investors in ths, stock. Sub
 sequently other particulars of the fraud were made public by this news paper Hardly a day has passed since the expose that a letter has not been received by The Republican from some Spenazuma stockholder asking 1 for further information. It is difficult | TO convince the average small stock | holder that he has made an unwise in- vesment, and some of the Spenazuma | dupes have exhibited an unusual de- | gree of confidence in the men who | have worked them; but the major ity are now thoroughly aroused. The | clipping from the New York Herald pictures a sad state. Of affairs in the little town of Tivoli, N. Y. Accord ing to the Herald all the spare money of the inhabitants has gone into Spen- azuma stock, ard unless the company can be compiled to restore it those people will be practically ruined. h other towns in the Hudson valley Spenazuma agents have been active. and we have the word of the Troy, N. r., Press that hundreds of confding i people have been duped Now that
 he facts concerning the Spenazuma take have thoroughly penetrated the .ast we may look for fresh reports of ! misery from many localities.
 In the face of the state of affairs
 hus made public, what honest man .an take issue With Governor Murphy |. n his crusade against mining frauds I Il the territory? Who with any re- l gard for his reputation can say that like the one in question ' hould be covered up? We iay to the self appointed critics I # this policy of exposure that the ruth concerning mining operations in Arizona cannot hurt a single reputable mining proposition. The unscrupu- ! {, Ous stock jobber has a tremendous $ bower for evil, and the sooner he is xposed the better for all legitimate I interests One result of the Spena- { una exposure will be to make in- estors wary of mining stock that may ,e offered them There will be close of properties, the very f hing that Arizona courts. There are undreds of attractive mines here and q hese will appreciate in value as the ,audulent schemes are driven out of ! he market.

The Tomato Worm.

The following on the tomato worm,
from the Atlanta Journal is interest
ing:
one insect which is now doing great
tomato worm. This caterpillar is the
same that natures in corn, being al
ways found in the end of the roasting
ear, under the shuck. It is analogous
with the cotton boil worm and is prop
agated from eggs laid by moth which
energies from the ground in the spring
These moths will usually be abundant
on land planted the preceding year in
corn and left undisturbed until the fol
lowing spring breaking The moth
lays her eggs on the tomato plant, and
the larvae bore first into the stem or
die. Upon examination Of the broken
stem the caterpillar may be seen at
work on the inside and nearest to the
growing body Of the plant The fruit
is soon attacked and the raYages kept
up as long as the plant is bearing An
other large green worm which preys
upon the foliage of the tomato plant
is quite destructive also if allowed to
continue its work undisturbed These
pests cannot be treated with insecti-
cides, hence the only plan is that Of
manipulating, pulling off the infected
fruit and destroying the worm. Rota-
ton should be practiced the following
year. There is also a fungus disease
which attacks the growing and matur-
ing tomato fruit The Bordeaux mix,
ture applies in that case as we'll as to
fungus diseases Of all other plants and
fruits.

Visible and Available Supply of
GofFIo
Cattle.

A stock writer says that while the
visible supply Of cattle is from 8,OOO,-
600 to 100000 head less now than it
was in 1894, the writer does not believe
that this shortage is Of amy serious mo-
ment as regards the available supply.
for the reason that the cattle are going
to market younger, and the available
supply forms a larger part of the Wis
IDLE supply than formerly when cattle
had to be at least five years of age to
be considered fit to mature for mar
ket. The present visible supply of
about 28,0O0,000 head will furnish ais
large an available supply for the mar
ket to day as 38,O00,O0O head furnished
ten years ago.
Whlle there is apparently no short
age in the available supply of cattle if
is the opinion of the writer that thereis
a shortage in the particular kind of CAT
tie the demand is calling for at this
time, and that shortage will probably
nave the effect Of at least holding nric-
es firm, if indeed there is not q decid-
ed advance on the better grades.
BloOded stock comes to the hutcbor
IN a little more than half the time of
ungraded cattle, and the former arc

as IS less, but the available supply of
beef cattle is probably equal TO former
years.

Veteran of the First Missouri Cavalry Relates Incidents of Sk
nishes with QuantreIIs BushwaCkers
From the Evening NeaOs, Detroit, Mich.

The well known employe of Detroit, Mich.
gan, Board of Public Works, Joseph B.
Myers, living at III Fort Street, west, is an
important member of the Grand Army OF
Veterans and recently had remarkable
experience.
Comrade Myers enlisted at Edinburg, Mo-,
in 1862, and served during the war in the
southwest, and was discharged at st. Louis,
Mo-, in 1865. He was member of Co. K.
First Missouri Cavalry, 18th A. G. Western
army, commanded by General Burnside, and
later by Gen. Eads He participated in the
battles of Springfield, Seas Ford and all the
principal battles through Missouri.
For months the First Missouri Cavalry
followed the notorious Guerilla Quantrell
and his band of bushwackers. Scarcely day
passed but what there was running fight,
For nearly six weeks Comrade Myers was

were we'll mounted. Night and day it was
fight and skirmishes and the men were pros

from the State. Many times the command

all day. The men slept and ate in their
saddles during this campaign, and were glad

Stock Raising in Treeless Reclaimed
HammOckS

Stock Raising in Treeless Reclaimed
Hammocks.
The writer has a partially reclaim
ed treeless hammock in which a prai-
RE grass which makes excellent hay
or pasturage is fast taking the place
Of the swamp saw grass in the vicin
ity Of the lateral bitches.
It has occurred to him that the t e.
less glades that can be drained at an
expense Of not to exceed SIS to $40 an
acre and set with Bermuda or other
kinds of forage grass, and stocked
with cattle, might be one Of the most
profitable uses to put these lands to. A
small area might be devoted to mead
OW for feed during the two months
that might be necessary to feed in a
Florida winter and the remainder to
paSturage, each acre Of which would
furnish ample feed for one head Of
stock
Supplemented with a little cotton
seed meal, or cotton seed hulls, beef
could be made that would equal the
Chicago beef that is retailing in Flor
ida towns at IS to IS cents a pound,
and it could be driven to market in
from one to three days time.
Here is an industr there is no dan
ger of being over-done. Native COWS,
bred to shOrt-horn males, would soon
produce herds of beef cattle that
would enrich a good manager Of stock
and we believe produce surer returns
than any other Il to which reclaimed
lands could be put.
We throw out this hint to the pro-
posed colony who are to drain the
10000 acre prairie adjoining Lake
Grandin in the northern portion of
Putnam county, in this State. A half
of this prairie so occupied could sup
ply the Jacksonville market at half
the price paid for Chicago beef, if beef
bred cattle were used to stock the
prairie after it's exclamation.
An enterprise of this kind would not
have to contend with frost, drouth,
cattle laws or railway extortion. A
gate at the outlet canal could supply
slack water irrigation in case of
drOuth. The occupancy by stock would
keep the land fortified.
A large enterprise of this nature
could also have it's ice house. cream

had learned in early life the lesson of
economy, started from home three
weeks after the strawberry crop had
been gathered, before young runners

some cheap strawberry plants early in

had yielded an extra fine crop, and

such plants were not worth digging,

retentive, and he will forget this name;
