The death of James A. Herne is deeply
regretted by many people who regarded
him as the exponent of more refined
drama than that to which the public had
been accustomed. His 'Shore Acres" ranks
an American classic. and the fact that
he has not duplicated the success of that
production does not detract from the popu-
lar admiration nor the artistic esteem in
which 1t caused him to be held. He was
siXty-one years and four months old, and
made his way from humble place in the
theater by dint of hard work and superior
talents. which secured him the friendship
and assistance of James Fiske.
The first wife of Mr.. Herne was Helen
Western, sister of Lucille Western, whom
he married in July, 1866. In 1878 he mar
ried Katherine COrcoran, who survives

Fifty negro singers, comprising as many
notes in a song sheet, in a Brooklyn thea

and fifty black heads were stuck through
as many holes in the sheet, each head rep
resenting a note. While Miss Moran, whose
turn it was was singing a small boy in
the gallery threw the small rubber ball,
which struck low G full in the face. On
the rebound the ball landed upon an in

TRIBUTE TO THE COW.
Poetical Live stock Auetioneer Cans
Her Gods Greatest Animal Gift
to Humanity.

Col. Woods, the Ohio live stock auc-
tioneer, grew eloquent in his introduce
tory speech at a recent Shorthorn
sale. He paid a glowing tribute to the
cow as follows:
"Grand and noble brute! Of all
Gods animal gifts to man, she is the
greatest. To her we owe the most.
Examine into all the different rami-
fications and channels of commerce
into which she enters, and note the re-
suit should she be blotted out Sun
day stiffness would then pervade the
great stock yard Industries of our
large cities and grass would grow in
the st1 Sets. Seventy-fve per cent. of
the great freight trains that pillow the
continent from ocean to ocean would
sidetrack, for there would be nothing
for them to do. Fully so per cent. OF
the laborers of America would draw no
pay on Saturday night, and our tables
would be bare of the greatest 1uxu-
ries with which they are loaded. The
great western plains that she has
made to blossom, financially, like the
rose, would revert to the Indian, from
whence they came, and millions of
prosperous homes would be destroyed.
'None other like the COW. There is
not thing from nose to tail but what
is utilized for man. We use her horns
to comb our hair; her hair keeps the
plaster on our walls; her skin is on all
our feet and our horses backs; her
hoofs are made into glue; her tail
makes soup; she gives our milk, our
cream, oIr cheese, our butter, and her
flesh is the great meat of all nations.
Her blood is used to make our sugar
white; her bones when ground make
the greatest fertilizer; her paunch she
herself has put through the first chem
zeal process for the manufacture of
the best white board paper; and it has
been discovered that that paper is the
most lasting material for the manufac-
ture of false teeth. No other animal
works for man both day and night. By
day she gathers the food and when
we are asleep at night she brings it
back to recheW and manufacture into
all the things of which 1 speak. She
has gone with the man from Plym-
outh Rock to the setting sun; it was
her sons that broke the first sod in
the settlers clearing; it was her sons
that drew the prairie schooner for the
sturdy pioneers, as inch by inch they
fought to prove that Westward the
star of empire takes its way and the
old cow grazed along behind; and when
the days march was done she came and
gave the milk to fill the mothers
breast to feed the sucking babe that
was, perchance, to become the future
ruler of his country"

the common device of opening the
door at night and shutting in daytime,
a new plan was successfully tried the
past season. An air shaft a foot square
extends underground to the farm mill
and power house about 80 feet distant.
At the further end of the shaft is a
small ventilator, a manufactured af-
fair, such as used for schools and Of
fees. The ventilator is driven by a
belt from the farm engine, and will
force air either IN or out of the cellar,
changing it's temperature at short no.
tice, and taking full advantage of
weather conditions.
The cellar is large one with con-
Meeting parts, and a great deal of
heavy work would be necessary but
for the handy tarrel railway shown in
the illustration. The track is hung
from the ceiling by curved hooks
which allow the trolley to pass. This
track is much like those used for large
sliding doors. Suspended from the
running wheel is a barrel carrier,
which is made on the principle of ice
tongs, and may be had complete at
large city hardware stores. Between
hook and track are two pulleys, one
fixed and the other movable, thus al
lowing the barrels to be easily raised
OF lowered. The whole affair is a
great labor saver. This cellar keeps
apples until late in the spring and the
fruit is usually sold at good prices fo r
the export trade.-J. D. Grey, in Farm
and Home

AIR FOR AERoNAUTs.
Apparatus Devised for Supplying
Liquid Oxygen 10 Them When
Poised at High Attitudes.

An apparatus for the purpose of sup
plying aeronauts with pure oxygen
when poised at high altitude where
the extreme rarefaction of the air-ren-
ders them liable to asphyxia ton, has
been devised by a Frenchman, NJ. L.
Cailletet,r writes the English corre-
spondent of the Scientific Amer
lean. When aeronauts experience
the nausea. arising from rarefied air,
they have recourse to the oxygen bag
by placing the tube in their mouth. Nj.
Cailletet considers this, unnatural,
since we are accustomed from birth
to breathe through the nose, and he
contends that when inhaling oxygen
through the mouth it does not accom-
plish its object. His device for solv-
ing this difficulty consists of a double
glass bottle confirming liquid oxygen,
and closed by a pperthrough which
two tubes pass. One of the tubes ter
inmates above the surface of the
oxygen, and it is provided on the ex--
terror with a rubber weight, by means
of which tits able to exercise atmos-
pheric pressure on the liquefied oxy-
gen. The other tube is made of lead
and reaches to the bottom~of the oxy-
L
is connected with a vaporizer, COM
prising very small boiler constructs
ed of seven copper tubes communicate
ing with each other. Owing to copper
being a good heat conductor, the Liquid
oxygen, through the action of the rub
Der weight, is transformed into gas,
and passes into a rubber reservoir
which is fixed in the car of the balloon.
From this reservoir extends a flexible
tube communicating with the respira-
tory apparatus, which consists of a
small metal mask protected externally
with velvet to protect it from the cold.
This mask only covers the mouth and
nose in much the same way as the
Fleuss apparatus is attached to the
Divers face. being maintained in posi-
ton by rubber bands. The gaseous
oxygen i'll the reservoir is conveyed
through the flexible tube to this mask
and the aeronaut is enabled to breathe
as comfortably if he were inhaIing
the ordinary atmosphere.

CABBAGEs FOR WINTER.
They Can BE Kept in Any Way That
Assures Circulation of Air and
Low Temperature
UAIG OAPOI u dUC' q : d VI z.
and Home.

Where cabbages are to be kept in
small way for family use, they may be
placed on the ground, heads down, and
covered over with straw or stalks. The
covering will keep them from freezing
and they can be removed at any time
during the winter. Cabbage should
not be covered over with earth and
should not, under any conditions, be
put where free ventilation cannot be
secured. The Country Gentleman has
received the following advice from j.
S. Bull an experienced cabbage grow
er of Cortland county, n. Y:
''In regard to storing cabbage, this
is done in every conceivable way, from
standing them on their heads on mead
ow lands or in woods without any COW
ering, or sometimes little straw or
snow, to easements of barns and to
quite elaborate storehouses. When
stored on meadow or woods, in some in
stances they keep better and shrink
less than in any other way, but they
should be placed on sloping ground, so
that the drainage will be good; and COW
eFing has to be watched so that they do
not get to warm, as there is little
or no ventilation that way, and some
times they all rot.
'sIn easements of barns bins are usu-
ally built like potato bins of Stats, leav-
ing about three inches opening between
them, commencing about a foot above
the ground, and another, say three feet
above that, and so on up to the ceiling.
This applies to regularly built store
houses as we'll as to old easements, but
there is a space left about two feet wide
all around between walls and bins, and
cabbage is piled in carefully, not ex-
ceeding 21s feet deep in bins, so that
there is plenty of air to circulate all
around the bins. TheTbins may be made
as wide as convenient to place cabbage
in, say about four or five feet, and any
length if there is plenty of air.
There should be plenty of windows.
and they should be kept open all the
time when there is no danger of freez-
ing-the best results being obtained
where they have best ventilation and
are not allowed to get chilled. Allmod-
ern storehouses have large ventilators
on the top of the building to carry off
tae damp vapors that arise, and to
make circulation. Your inquirer can
keep cabbage very nicely in his out
door cellar, provided he gets plenty of
fresh air in and around his cabbage,
opening them up TO the air every warm
day. All there is Of the whole matter
is plenty of fresh air and low tenn
perature."
