Burning Ont stumpn.

The easiest way to get rid of stumps h field or meadow is to burn them out.

Then leave the stump for few days to dry. Gather up lot of dry sticks, brush, etc. and fll up the trench all around and on top of the stump and set 1t on fire. The stump will be consumed In day or two. Even green stumps may be burn ed out In this way, although 1t may re- quire a second or third supply of dry sticks on the fire to accomplish It, Contributor American Agriculturist.

 Predicted Solution of Garbage
 Problem.
 Powdered coal is the fuel of the flu ture, according to the officials of the H. linois Central railroad, who have been experimenting recently with a device for making use of coal dust.
 Two boilers at the railroads Four teenth street power house have been equipped with the new invention, and tests of efficiency and economy in the use of coal will be continued for the next 30 days. At the end of that time the railroad men claim they will have demonstrated that coal when ground fine enough is the best and cheapest fuel available, as well as being abso- lutely smokeless. The subject of coal dust firing has occupied the attention of engineers all over the world for years, but the Idea has only recently been put into practical shape. For coal dust firing the coal must be ground to a powder AS fine as wheat flour.

Congregational Singing.

 Let one of these starveling fancy songs sung ill church get up before the throne of God. How would it look stand ing amid the great doxologies of the re- deemed? Let the finest operatic air that ever went up from the church of Christ get many hours the start; 1t will be caught and passed by the hosanna of the Sabbath school children. I know church where the choir did all the singing save one Christian man, who, through perseverance of the saints, went right on, and afterward a con- mittee was appointed to wait on him and ask him if he would not please to stop singing, as he bothered the choir Let those refuse to sing

cup, but whether we will get 1t or not
Is a question which ! will not be too
positive on. You may be pleased to
hear my opinion, which Is that we shall
have a good race and that the best boat
will win. The Americans can build
ships and sail them as well as any
man. The British have nothing up their
sleeve in the way of seamanship or any
thing else; but the crew of the Sham
rock II will do its best"
Captain Matthews, of the Erin, who
was one of the speakers, said: Il think
Great Britain stands a better chance
than ever before, and / believe that
with a little luck we may pull through
this time. The Americans are very
keen and will do everything to keep
the cup but | hope that next October
we may have another meeting here to
celebrate a victory"
