HERMlTs AMONG THE coMmoNERs.

Sct-Twenty Years Ct Silence.

There is probably no assembly in the
world where so little social and per
sonal intercourse takes place was
for FIVE years in the House OF Com
mons without knowing half dozen
men outside the small body OF IS to 40
members with whom | acted. These
were. oi course, stormy times. and 1t
was difficult to say whether an Irishman
in the epoch between 1880 and 1885 had
fierccr hatred for Liberals or Tories.
Things, OF course, have greatly
changed, but even now | see every day
members OF the House OF Commons
who must have been there for the same
20 years as myself. and not only have |
never spoken to them, but | do not
know some OF them by name.
Amid all its gregariousncss the
House OF Commons has its isolation.
Members retain there the eccentricity
or the love OF solitude which are char
acteristic of certain temperaments. Mr..
Charrington. the member for Mile End,
for instance. who is one OF the most
universally generous men in the House,
and who is never deaf to true tale
OF undeserved suffering, has rarely been
seen to talk to single human being.
The same instinct, perhaps, which made
him refuse both a baronctcy and peer
age. keeps him apart from his fellows.
He dimes alone he takes his single cigar
in the smokcroom alone, he sits on a
back bench in the House, still and ever

Value of Garden.

The market garden business Is n
very good business when one makes
1t his entire business. Yet there are
always failures and disappointments
in It.. Some crops fail to grow well
and others yield abundantly and can.
not he sold at satisfactory price.
But the family garden, little larger
than needed for the home supply, well
manured and well cared for, is never
q disappointment. If some crop Is a
partial failure 1t may not have any
surplus over the home demand. but
there v i'll be something else TO substi
tutc for It. If another is over abun.
dant and low priced it can be used
freely, and will taste just as good as
II the price We're twice as high. If
there is a market for the surplus and
It is sold, it seems almost like finding
money. and If II cannot be sold there
are some who find much pleasure in
supplying the wants Of poorer neigh.
bors who cannot afford to pay the
price asked by retail dealers. Plan
each year to have a good garden, and
trust to luck only for the market.

Poultry Notes.

Pigs liver Is cheap and handy form
of fresh meat for poultry.
If hen has large red comb the
chances are that she is n good layer.
Successful poultrymen are nearly al
ways fond OF fowls, and spend much
time studying their habits.
To fatten fowl in week, feed it
all the soaked corn it will eat, with
just a little OF green garden truck to
keep up the appetite. Then kill, cook
and eat.
Hens enjoy getting onto n pile of
barnyard rubbish and manure of n
winter day to scratch and If 1t Is not
too cold 1t is a good thing to allow
them this privilege unless you have
provided so that they can have all the
indoor scratching they wish.
If you have failed to provide large
windows in your hen house to admit
the sunshine and wish to let your
hens out on the sunny side for few
hours during the warmesr part of the
day, be sure and sweep the snow away
well before letting them out.
There are few things better calcu-
lated to promote health of fowls and
induce them to lay than fresh green
bone meal, and since that cannot be
had In the market, every farmer should
have bone mill and grind a supply
for his fowls at home. It is easy
enough to gather up the bones.
Cabbage leaves or inferior cabbage
make an excellent green stuff for fowls
In winter. Beets and turnips are a
fair substitute for cabbage, and
chopped alfalfa hay dampened with
warm water will answer. Hens will
eat the hay from the stalk II allowed
access to II. .-

Europe Docs Not Combat Trusts.

The European public maintains a
compiacent attitude toward trusts, but II
these trusts had done evil instead OF
good they would not have been tolcr-
atcd, for governments and the leading
political economists as well as trade
rivals, have closely scrutinized their
daily walk and their average tendency.
There are pirates among trusts. com

Deafness Cannot he Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only ono
way 20 cure deafness, and that Is by constitu-

Irving New ynrIe,,e. Of wheat.

Farmers should not be too sanguine

year some one comes TO the front with
cxtravagant claims for ncwly-discov-
cred or improved varieties. Use only
varitles that have bcpn tested on the
farm. MS climate and soil are to he

Morning Star Mining Country.

The inevitable outsider, who
knows it all, having again raised his
voice against the Arkansas zinc field,
and the Morning Star country made
an especial target of his criticisms,
some fear was entertained by the
TIMES that the Rush creek eulch had
been stolen bodily in the night, OF
that some other territory had been
substituted for it "unbeknowenst"
to its mine owners and inhabitants.
And to the end of setting these fears
at rest Col. DeMalher. mineral au-
thority of the paper, was instructed
to take in that section while enroute
to the Maumee mine of Searcy coun-
ty.
The result OF the visit is exactly
what might have been expected oft.
The same mountain side miners are
in their accustomed place, with other
and greater proof, in sight. of the
vast store of mineral they had hid
den from view. The mining popula-
ton has doubled since a former visit.
Mining properties in changing hands
have brought into the new order
many new buildings and much pom
derous machinery. The quintuplC
stars OF the Rush group of mines
more than ever hold to orbits oI
their own. Piles Of ore and faces oI
ore on mining properties refute th'
stories Of those who pit themselves
against the locality, and the onlJ
thing lacking, in the competence %

while in neither instance was the loss
heavy, in money way, the fire in the

in the oontagion ward. Too much praise
cannot be given to Miss MacDoweli, the
matron of the hospital, and her nurses,
for the daring manner in which they
rescued the ID scarlet fever patients in
the ward.
One by one, the sick patients were tax
en- out of their cots and lowered through
the windows to the ground where they
were removed to safety. Not until all
had been taken out did the nurses seek
safety themselves and as they were over
come, the firemen gave them assistance.
The ward with it's furnishings was
totally gutted, entailing loss of $500;
fully insured.
While all the available apparatus was

wanted News About the Situation In
China.


China.
Washington, May 3i.-The Chinese
minister, Mr.. WI Ting Fang called at
the State Department. at an early hour
today to talk with Secretary Hay. He
had no information from his own gov
ernment as to the critical situation In
China and was anxious for news.
Resident representatives-of nearly all Of
the other nations interested in the Chi
nese situation are among Secretary Hays
callers. today. But, as in the case Of the
Chinese minister, none of them had re-
ceiyed any information from his own gov
ernment bearing upon the situation.
Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador,
who Is leaving the United States for a
visit to Europe and called to say good
bye to Secretary Hay, Is decidedly Of the
opinion that much un-warranted anxiety
has been excited as to the acti ons of the
Boxers. He feels confident that there is
little danger of life and property of for
elgners In China to be expected from the
present uprising. There are Of course,
he said, always disorderly elements in II
great city like Pekin, quick to take I'D
vantage Of any public excitement, 50
that 1t was probably wise precaution ON
the part Of the foreign ministers resident
in that capital to call for marine guards
for their respective legation, the pres
ence Of the these small but splendid or
ganizations having wholesome effect
upon the would-be turbulent elements in
Pekin.
