The Portland Express tells a thrilling
tale of black coon cat which was left
at Union station one day recently, to
be shipped to Rockland. When the box
in which she was supposed to be was
examined 1T was found empty. The
station and vicinity were thoroughly
searched. but nothing could be found
of the cat. and the train went out APP
parently without her. When the ex-
press stopped at Waterville, one of the
train hands CHANGED to look under the
car at the truck frame of the bag
gage coach, and there repOsing quietly
and securely was the coon cat, as
calm and contented as could be. The
animal had Travelled 50 miles under
meath the car, and by a miracle had
not been thrown off and killed. The
cat had probably been frightened by Il
dog or something else at Union station,
had broken from her box, and taken
refuge on the truck frame of the bag
gage car. She was forwarded to her
destination where she finally arrived in
safety.

VALUABLE FOR HAY.

Here are three important PROPOSE
tions having an agricultural bearing:
1. Grass is the most valuable crop
in Vermont and in many parts of New
England and New York.
2. No species of grass commonly
cultivated does we'll on low, wet
ground. Such ground usually pro-
duces a mixture of weeds and sedges
known as "swale hay"
3. 1t has now been shown that a
native species, fowl meadow grass,
can be established in these low mead
ows, where it will thrive and produce
hay equal in quantity and quality to
the best timothy or red top.
This announcement rests on the re-
suits of seven years. experiments
conducted by Prof. L. r. Jones, bot
anist of the Vermont Experiment
Station.
Seed of fowl meadow grass is almost
unknown in the seed market, but it is
not difficult to gather from the wild
plants. 1t can be secured in this way
at cost of about S. bushel. Prof.
Jones advises sowing in mixture on
wet soils, the following being merely
sample prescription for an acre:
Timothy, 10 pounds.
Alsike clover, pounds.
Red top (recleaned), pounds.
Fowl meadow Cin chaff) 10 pounds.
These should be sown in mid-sum-
mer without nurse crop.
The timothy and red top are apt to
take the ground at first, and may pre-
dominate flor the first two or three
years even. But as they succumb to
the wetuess of the soil the fowl mead
ow grass takes their places, and pres
emily will be found to have occupied
nearly the whole territory.
Farmers who have low, wet mead
ow land, where red top ard timothy
do not succeed, should look carefully
into the merits of fowl meadow grass
1t is native and hardy and not con-
trolled by any trust.

How Women Rest.

Chow differently men and women
indulge themselves in what is called a
resting SPELL" says Leslie's Weekly.
Il guess I'll sit down and mend these
stockings, and rest while;' but her
husband throws himself upon the
easy lounge or sits back in his arm
chair, with hands at rest and feet
placed horizontally upon another
chair. The result is that his whole
body gains full benefit of the half hour
he allows himself from work, and the
wife only receives that indirect help
which comes from the change of oc-
cupation. A physician would tell her
that taking a ten minutes rest in a
horizontal position, as a change from
standing or sitting at work, would
prove more beneficial to her than any
of her makeshlfts at resting"

Advantage of Fail Flowing.

The deeper we can pillow in the fall
of the year the better will the soil be
for the crops OF the following season.
Shallow blowing has it's advantages,
and its place, but we need to get way
down to the subsoil sometime. AL
though most of the fertility and plant
food stay near the surface there is
much good material that gradually
sinks down below the soil that is usu-
ally turned over with the pillow. We
must get at this to obtain the best re-
suits. Soil and subsoil may be turned
over, pulverized and broken up.
That is the object of blowing. 1t will
save the roots of plants from using
up their vitality and strength in push
ing their way through the tough in
elastic soil.
Take some lands and examine the
soil below the first few inches. 1t will
be found SO hard and compact that
you cannot wonder that plants refuse
to send their roots down through it.
1t is almost physical impossibility.
Consequently we have surface roots
supporting the plants, and when
drouth comes they wither up and die.
What we need are crops with their
feet buried far down in the soil, so
deep in fact that they will never suf-
fer from the lack of moisture. This
can be accomplished only by making
the mechanical conditions of the soil
congenial far below the surface. This
is easy of accomplishment if one will
pillow thoroughly, pillow deeply, pillow
until the soil is thoroughly smashed
up and broken to pieces, and pillow
when near fall and winter. Do not be
afraid of subsoil blowing. 1t will do
the best of lands good. 1t will tear
up soil that has not been touched, it
may be, for centuries. 1t will some
times reveal unexpected st orehouses
of ertility.-Erchange.

Hints.


To polish windows.-The best thing
for polishing windows is a small hand
mop made of scraps of chamois.
Pieces no larger than dollar can be
used, and if we'll worn the mop will
work SO much the better. String
them all together on a piece of strong
tWine, then tie together in bunch.
When dirty, wash it out, dry and be-
fore using rub it soft between your
hands.
FURNITURE polish.-A reliable furni-
ture preparation for cleansing picture
frames and restoring furniture. es-
pecially that somewhat married or
scratched is mixture of three parts
of linseed oil and one part spirits of
turpentine. 1t not only covers the
disfigured surface, but restores wood
to its original color, leaving a polish
upon the surface. Apply with a
wooden cloth and when dry rub with
wooden.
Paper wrappers Articles of food
that are damp and juicy should never
be left in ordinary paper. Paper is
made of wood-pulp, rags, glue, lime
and similar substances, with acids
and chemicals intermixed, and when
damp is unfit to touch things that
are to be eaten.
Umbrella plant.-Give the umbrella
plant very rich soil. Set the plant in
a jardiniere and keep the soil in a pot
covered with water. Every two
weeks empty the jardiniere, wash and
refill it with fresh water; give morn
ing sun.

Both the determination of Hogan to
stop in the city after the rest of the

of the minstrel players against the hui
which brought them here in general,
and John F. Colburn in particular.
There were several encounters, and
twice the police had to be sent for and
at one time there was the opening
round of a good scrap" as it would
be put in rag time. In fact, the after
moons engagement was one of synco-
patton and mastication.
Despite the fact that the business to
which the company has played has
been bad, and the money has been
light, yet after threats of trouble and
two weeks played without any charges
for the theater, simply to give the act
ors chance, it was decided that pay
ment should be made and all the orig
inal agreements carried out. This was
done practically with the members OF
the company, excepting Hogan and
Ringgold. the stars of the aggregation
brought down. When it came to that
settlement there was pilikia. Before he
left Colburn had given his power of
attorney TO Morris Keohokalole, with
instructions concerning the money.
Hogan received something like s575
for salary. and then came the matter
of transportation. The split came over
sleeper and meals on the way from San
Francisco to New York. Judge Davis
was the arbitrator and decided that
fare would be $50. berths $50 each and
meals would cost So a day each, as
well. But there came a hitch. Even
when Cohen, who has been advertised
as manager of the company in the
United States, promised that he would
be responsible for the sleepers and food
across the continent, that was not suf-
ficient. and the actor demanded cash
in advance. There was split and CO.

saying he would have nothing more to

when Hogan appeared at the office OF
the Kapiolani estate, by engagement
to settle affairs and was told that there
was S17O representing carfare for two

take the money, and then began some
