The hour OF adjournment having ar
rived. the chairman asked Mr.. Butler.
counsel for Henry NJ. Whitney. as to
the health of his client. and how soon
he would be able to appear before the
committee.
Mr.. Butler said he did not know. but
he thought he could ascertain by tele-
graphing to where Mr.. Whitney Is In
the south.
A TART REPLY.
He was requested to do so.
Representative Mckinley of Lowell
said that perhaps Mr.. Butler could also
inform the committee where Mr.. Tudor
was and when he would return.
Mr.. Butler replied tartly that Mr..
Tudor was i'm town and had been for
the last As hours. He said that he could
not understand what these insinuations
meant regarding the absence of Mr..
Tudor.
Representative Engstrom asked II Il
was a fact that Mr.. Tudor was in Bos-
ton at that time why he had not obeyed
the summons OF the committee.
The chairman said that the commit
tee would attend to that matter.
The hearing was adjourned to Friday
morning at 10 o'clock.

Faith and Assurance,

Faith Is the root, and Assurance is the
aower. Faith is that poor trembling WON an
who came behind Jesus in the press and
touched the hem OF His garment: Assurance
Is Stephen standing calmly In the midst OF
his murderers, and saying, II see the heav-
sns opened, and the Son of man standing on
the right hand OF God" Faith is the peni-
tent thief, crying, Lord, remember me;'
Assurance is Job sitting In the dust, covered
with sores, and saying, II know that my
Redeemer liveth" Though He slay me, yet
will I trust In Him." Faith is Peters drown
ing cry, as he began to sink, Lord ,suve me!'
Assurance IL that same Peter declaring be-
fore the council. In attsr-times, This Is the
stone which is set at naught by you builders
which is become the head Of tho corner"
Faith is the anxious, trembling voice, Lord,
believe; help Thou my unbelief;" .Assur-
ance Is the confident challenge, who shall
lay anything to the charge OF Gods elect2
Who Is he that condemneth2" Faith Is
Saul praying in the house Of Judas at
Damascus, sorrowful, blind and alone;
Assurance is Paul, the aged prisoner look
ing calmly into the grave, and saying, "I
know whom 1 have believed. There Is q
crown laid up for me-" Faith is life. How
great the blessing! Who can tell tho gulf
between life and death2 And yet life may
be weak, sickly. unhealthy. painful, trying,
anxious, worn, burdensome, joyless, SMILE
iess to the very end. Assurance Is more
than life. 1t is health, strength, power,
yigor, activity, energy, manlincss, beauty

Growing Parsnips on One Land.

4 It is NOT practicable to grow parsnips
s in succession on the same land, as
they are apt to be attacked by large
worm, which always comes in the Sec
ond year and which makes such de.
structive work n the leaves as to de-
stroy the crop. Even when the pars'
nip is set to grow seed it should al
ways be dug up and replauted as far
as possible from where it grew. Where
parsnip root is allowed to stand over
winter and reseed where it grew, ii
shows the effect of winter freezing and
thawing, and also of lack of cultiva-
tion, az the ground is always hard
around il. Seed thus produced will
be worse than worthless for planting,
IS the parsnip like the carrot very
quickly degenerates into weed when
it is deprived OF good culture. In
some places wild parnips and wild car
rots have becoms among the worst
weeds that the farmer has to contend
with. They are, of course, biennials, and
pulling them up when they are going
to seed ends them, provided the
plant has not too far advanced SO that
the seed will be perfected after it is
uprooted. But that in grass land
makes loag job, as the plants grow
very small and seed when they are
less than foot high.

HOUSE PASSES TRUST BILL.
Only One Vote Against the Littleaeld
Antitrust Measure.

Washington, D. G. (SpeciaD.-Only
one vote was cast in the House against
the Littlefield Antitrust bill to amend
the Sherman act of 1890 so as to make
it more effective in the prosecution
of trusts and combinations, theii
agents, officers, or attorneys. Mr.,
Mann Rep., ILL., cast the negative
vote.
The bill amends the Sherman anti
trust law so as to declare every con.
tract or combination in the form of
trust or conspiracy in restraint of
commerce among the States or with
foreign nation illegal, and every party
to such contract or combination guilty
of crime punishable by fine Of not
less than $500 or more than $1,000 and
by Imprisonment for not less than six
months or more than two years. II
provides that any person injured by
a violation Of the provisions of the
law may recover threefold damages.
The definition of "person" and per.
sons" in the present law Is enlarged
so as to include the agents.. officers or
attorneys or corporations.
For purposes of commerce 1t de
clares illegal all corporations OF asso
Citations formed for carrying on busf
ness for purposes declared illegal by
the common law; provides that they
may be perpetually enjoincd from car
rying on interstate commerce, and for
bids them the use of the United
States mails.

shalt thou not see? Thou hast planted the

made the heart, and shalt not thou take

thee there that 1t is too heavy for me. Then
wilt thou know, though may not. by what
means it may he removed, thank thee
that thy watchful eye Is over all things
and that thou governest them with mercy
und wisdom. thank thee that the world
goes not as man wills. but as thou, the Lord,
wilt. In whom can I trust better than in
thee2 How strangely soever, then, the
worlds affairs may sometimes seem to pro-
ceed, 1 will be dumb and not open my mouth,
because thou doest it. BY thy grace l am

hast given unto me be given in vain. Cause
the light of thy countenance to shine upon
me aud give me peace. Amen.

Cold Frarnes and Eo.betls.

The value OF frames to small gar
den is seldom estimated. Very few
large gardens but contain them, yet in
a way they ore of more value where
land for garden purposes is not plenti
full. In the latter case the owner, who
wants to fully supply his table with
fresh things, tries to get all that he
possibly can out of his limited space.
By means of a moderate size hotbed,
lettuce, radishes and other quickly
maturing plants may be raised for
winter use. Other plants may be
started in late winter, for transplant
ing to the open ground in spring, thus
securing the earliest crops possible,
and opening the way for succession
of crops to take the place of the early
ones. Of course, this sounds more
extensive than itreally is, for all vege-
tables cannot be handled alike; but
snfficiant that il ran Iva done tn snmA

a Few Points on Cherries.

Standard cherry trees should be set
from twelve to twenty feet apart, the
distance depending upon the variety
planted. Fifteen feet is a safe dis
tance for the common varieties to be
planted upon ordinary soil. Manellas
when planted on strong soil should
have at least twenty feet.
Cherries will do we'll when grown
on a sod and do comparatively better
under such circumstances than the
apple, still it pays we'll to cultivate
the cherries in about the same way as
the better class of fruit growers Guilt
yate the apple orchard. In brief this
cultivation consists of shallow plow-
ing in spring followed by occasional
surface civilizations until about the
middle summer, when some corn crop
is sown. When this is high enough
first cutting might be used as hay. and
when high enough for the second turn
sod and all under.

The Holy Spirits Interference,

Little by little Christ's example has led
men on and upward to even better
and better things, elsyating aims, methods
and the quality OF service, never interfer-
ing with freedom OF action. but always so
shaping events that out Of evil good has
come and the glory OF God has been re-
Vealed in the movemsn OF society. And
il we turn from the larger to the
smaller sphere OF observation and
study tho individual, the same thing
is true. If we look back on our
personal history. those Of US who
are endsavoring to do Gods will rarely can
fail to see the divine hand In the course Of
svents In which We have participated. Here
we have been guided, there guarded. On
one day we were helped in some distress By
q power which We felt was more than hu-
man. On another thsre came, for the solv-
ing OF some narrowing doubt, fash OF
divine light into the soul. In many ways
We have'experienced this. We have learned
to trust the actual presence and benevolent
interference OF the Holy Spirit with our
lives. This may be true OF all men.

extent by careful and studious gar

extent by careful and studious gar
dener.
Considerable judgment must be ez-
ercised to make thorough succession
instance, the depth of the pit must be
regulated to agree with the plants to
be grown. AS an example, lettuce
especially that grown in early winter
is liable to draw upward to the light,
a very undesirable thing where good,
solid heads are wanted. Therefore,
the pit should be shallow to bring the
plants fairly near the glass. This also
applies to all seedlings intended for
transplanting; they must not be drawn
up, spindling and weak, but ell
couraged to grow solid and stocky:
Even such slender things as peas could
be started triae earlier by sowing
the seed in pots plunged in the frame,
and transplanted later. This would
not pay on large scale, but to obtain
few dishes for the table it would be
desirable. Then care must be taken
in the regulation of air and protection
from frost, for raised in this way
plants are delicate.

Remedy For Cut Worms.

Those who are much troubled by
any of the several species Of cut worm
should remember that they can easily
be destroyed by the use of mixture
of bran and Paris green, moisteEed
with sweetened water, just enough to
make into little balls that are to be
placed by the side of each hill, or
scattered at intervals OF three or
four feet apart along the drills. The
worms will eat this in preference to
the plant, and they will never eat
plants again after once trying this.
Each ball should be about teaspoon
full. One pound of Paris green to
fifty pounds of bran is sufficient. 1t
should not be put where the poultry
can get it, but poultry have no busl-
ness in the cultivated fields.

Value OF a Small Garden.

Every one who lives out of the city
should have garden, even if 1t covers
but a few rods, that they may have
fresh vegetables and well-ripened
small fruits. 1t is surprising how
much can be grown on few rods Of
ground if properly cared for. A rod
of land may be made to produce all
the strawberries which small family
would care tC eat, and a half rod all
the currants for a large family. A
rod may be made to produce all the
raspberries and blackberries required
and another ali the tomatoes, radishes,
beeta, parsnips and late turnips.
When the garden is confined to few
rods two crops should be grown on
the same land each year. Peas may
be followed by rutabagas, squashes,
late beans, sweet corn, or celery,
early beets with late cabbage and
early lettuce with cucambers. To
have good garden, the land should
be heavily manured and thoroughly
prepared before planting, and as soon
as the crop begins to grow cultivation
should begin and continue until the
crop covers the ground.
1t is mistake to suppose that the
sole object of cultivation is the de-
struction of weeds. While this is one,
and to many the principal object, it is
by no means the only one, for rapid
growth cannot be expected unless the
soil is frequently stirred to keep the
surface light and loose. AS soon after
a heavy rain as the soil permits, the
garden should be we'll cultivated, to
prevent a crust forming on the sur
face. A hand wheel-hoe is an excel
lent implement in the garden. Three
times as much work can be done with
it as with the common hand-hoe, and
done much better, but in using a
whecl-hoe the weeds should never be
permitted to grow over an inch in
hight. When the crops gets large
enough to shade the whole surface of
the ground cultivation may cease, but
if any weeds appear they should be
pulled by hand.--F. H. Sweet. in
American Agriculturist.
