The Razorback In a New Light.


Unqualified detraction and almost
equally stanch defense have alike fol-
lowed the raZorback hog of the south
Professor Carlyle of the Wisconsin sta
ton views him in more unusual light
According to the Live Stock Journal:
professor Carlyle conceived the no.
ton that his fecundity and good di-
gestion might be put to good use. The
razOrback is VIGOROUSLY prolific, and
veracious witnesses have seen him per-
form feats of gastronomy calculated
to force. goats and ostriches to suicide
from pure chagrin."
Professor Carlyle says: eve had a
number of fine Berkshire sows that
furnished us with nothing but disap-
pointment, but with the arrival of the
razorbacks from the south this disap-
peared. The cross resulted in some
splendid litters, and some of the best
female stock we have on the farm is
half razorback. They improve rapid
ly under domestication and make splen-
did Mothers
So far the best crosses have been Sc
cured with razorback boars and Po-
land China sows. The crosses are
healthy, good feeders and early matu-
rers, gains of eleven pounds per week
having been recorded. Professor Car
lyle believes this blood can be used
with good result on the fine boned Po-
land-China stock of the corn belt.

Richards of Texas advocates plant
ing fruit trees deeper in the dry region
of the west and southwest than is COM
monty directed in the north and east.
From our own experience in southern
Kansas and observations in various
parts of that state, as well as Nebras-
ka, Oklahoma and Texas, we are thor
oughly convinced that it is much bet
ter to plant deeper than in the east.
The roots do not dry out so badly dur
ing the hot, dry months of summer,
and the roots drink the moisture much
better. The soil in many parts of the
states mentioned is loose and light and
not so. close and heavy as frequently
found in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
Missouri. In this loose, light soil the
moisture seems to be retained for a
long time, and deep planting succeeds
much better than in many places far
Their east. If a soil was naturally
moist or wet. we doubt if deep plant
ing would be so successful. = Farm.

sent to her by Napoleon after the sur render at Sedan: "The army is de- feated and taken. I am a prisoner" The cries of the Parisian populace: ssAn emperor dies, but does not sur- render!' The mob at the Tuilleries, her escape under the protection of the American dentist, Dr. Evans; the rough trip across the channel in the Englishman's yacht and the landing in England.
 England has given safe asylum to the unhappy woman ever since, Vic- toria repeatedly showing her love and sympathy for Eugenie. For years she dwelt at Chiselhurst, the country es- tate leased to the Bonaparte family by an English gentleman Here the young prince dwelt for season with his mother, here Napoleon joined hls wife and here Napoleon III. breathed his last. From Chiselhurst the prince imperial departed to engage i'll serv- ice in the war in Zululand. To Chis- elhurst was brought back the prince's lifeless body. To Chiselhurst 100000 1 Frenchmen came to take part in the I last sad rites for the murdered youth.
 For almost 20 years Chiselhurst sheltered the deposed empress. In 1888, the owner himself wishing to occupy the place, Eugenie bade it 1 farewell and moved to place in Farnborough, where she has since re- sided much of the time. She visits Paris quietly now and then.

intellect, devoted wife, mother and friend: detractors have tried to prove her narrow and bigoted, filled With vain ambitions, an eXtravagant, frly- olous creature.
 Fugenie was born in Granada, the daughter of Spanish grandee, Count di Montiio. Countess di Montijo, her mother, woman of great beauty and wit, was not overparticular about the morality of the fashionable folk and artists that frequented her salon; but although she herself was inclined to dare the proprieties, she brought up her two daughters with such care that never word of slander was breathed against them. With them she travelled from capital to capital in Europe, where they became famil- far with high society and conversant with &oreign languages and manners.
 At the respective ages of 15 and 16 the sisters began to go into society, and at once were surrounded with a throng of admirers. It is no wonder that Eugenie, who had been accus toned to adulation from her infancy up after she became empress forgot now and then to act with the dignity and discretion becoming her high sta tion. Impulsive, fearless, gay, used as a girl to more freedom than the average girl was allowed, she often l found the restraints of court irk- 1 some. and with her free manners and gay sallies alarmed some of the stiff nobility. But her freedom never de- generated into anything that would give ground for scandalous comment.
 Eugenie, who has ever been a de- vout Catholic, wearied for awhile of gay life and thought seriously of en- tering a convent. But she was swerved 1 from this purpose and returned to the pleasures of the French capital At the Elysee she met Napoleon, then prince president of the second French J republic After he became emperor he invited her and her mother to 1 Fontainebleau, and there in the for ests was captT~Sted by her daring horsemanship anA brilliant beauty.

ATAIIE CIAIRE

The entertainment being arranged for the benefit performance for the Sisters of Mercy at Polls theater on the afternon and evening of Friday promises to be decided success, fin ancially and artistically. Already there is a brisk demand for tickets. The worthiness of the object is con ceded by all. There can be noNques- ton that the program will be high class in every respect. The artists are all people who enjoy excellent re- putations in the musical and lyceum fields. Prominent among them is the gifted singer, Atalie Claire, whose abil- ity is unprecedented. She comes with the indorsement of critics in all the larger cities in this country. She has q magnificent vocal organ, rendering with ease and facility the classical se- lections, while her repertoire is wide. Another leading attraction is Florence Bindlay, the winsome instrumentahst, whose superiority in her field is undis- puted. Also engaged are Maud Beal Prince, the famous impersonator and mimic; the renowned royal Japanese troupe from the court of Japan; Alex Wilson, marvellous ventriloquist, as sisted by his happy family; Julia Kingsley, brilliant recruit from the legitimate stage, and her company, pre- senting a refined comedietta; Grant and Ray, musical comedians, and Johnson and Wells, colored artists will also be seen.

COMPANY AS CIRCUS.

Tomorrow night Company As much heralded old-fashioned country circus opens at the Jacques auditorium, and to be in the swim you should not fail to attend. There has been a large sale of seats and the indications point to q fine welcome for the military boys, who have been laboring early and late, for the past month, to make the nov city attraction a wholesale success. Public interest in the show has been melted to a remarkable degree, and if the show comes up to the expectations of it's promoters it is sure to net q goodly sum for the treasury of the militiamen.
 Captain Carter's men are heart and soul in making the enterprise a sue cess, and have disposed of a vast amount of tickets, so that the show seems assured of making good. as they say in the vernacular. The company has decided to give the small boy and his big brother and sister a chance to see the show at a low price. and will throw open the Carson City district for an admission of A cents each per- son. All the boxes for tomorrow nights performance have been sold. and by tonight all the box seats for Friday night will probably be dis posed of The parade, with the Amer ican band, takes place tomorrow at noon. Look out for the Morris ponies.

As the emperor and empress rode through the streets in the famous glass coach the crowds along the way were. wildly enthusi- astic over the lady of Napoleon's choice. The City of Paris had voted 600 GOO francs for the purchase of diamond necklace for the bride, but this sum Eugenie asked might be set aside to found home where poor girls could be trained to earn their
 living The request added greatly to her popularity. The buildings were erected, arranged in semicircle to simulate diamond necklace.
 In penning her memoirs Eugenie's thoughts must turn back to her hap py, very prosperous early married life as we'll as to the troubled days subsequent; to the pleasant visit in England, where was begun her long friendship with Victoria; to the birth of the prince and the added popular ity and happiness occasioned by this event; to the fetes that marked the
 visit to Paris of Victoria and the prince consort; to the days of her regency, when Napoleon was off help ing Italy to drive out the Austrians;

 VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 The Parros brothers have made the wonderful sensation predicted at the Jacques, and it is already evident that MT Poli has secured another unique novelty for the patrons of vaudeville. Such remarkable acrobatics as they in- troduce are entirely novel in this city, and 1t Is as much a curiosity to see them perform as it is a matter of fn- terest- Already the Parros have be- come the talk of the town, and it is to argue oneself outside the pale of fashion not to see them at least once during their engagement here. They are. backed, too, by a coterie of vaude- vile players that have not been equaled since MT Poli took charge of the performances at the Jacques. liar Tis and Walters introduce a clever ec- centric comedy skit i'll which Mir liar ris touches off some local foibIes in q way to evoke the liveliest laughter even from those he mentions. It is a wonderfully amusing skit and one that is quite as entertaining in it's way as are the Parros in theirs. Mf and Mrs Alfred Kelcey please nightly. too, in their little sketch, Uncle Phfneas,' 7 and being old favorites here, they score heavily at every performance. Others on the bill who aid in making the show one of rare excellence are the Rice brothers, the three Graces, Clark and Grandy, and Emil Subert. The vita graph is of great interest this week alse with its series of Chinese views Prices are 10 and 20 cents for the matinees. all ladies 10: evening prices for all, 10, 20 and 30 cents.

Last week at the Bos- tonians, the occupants of the papers box seats were colored. An investi- gation by the morning paper disclosed that reporter of the evening rival had secured from the winner the box seats and had given them to his col cred friends The morning paper calls it "a low-down, dirty trick" The evening paper denies responsibility for the alleged joke.
