Flowing Under Green Crops.

While we advocate blowing under
green crops, when they are not worth
more for stock food than for manure.
we believe that there are some soils
where this practice may do injury
rather than good If the soil Is light
and sandy, lacking nitrogen, or when
IL is stiff and needs to be made more
porous, then almost any green crop is
a good manure for it. Where it is low
and wet. and perhaps has too much
acid in It, heavy crop of clover or
other green manure will usually be an
injury to the succeeding crop, unless
IL is given also a dressing of lime in
some form, and we would prefer to
pay more for a good phosphate of lime
or fine ground phosphate rock, with
an addition or potash, than to use
either slaked lime or sulphate of lime
Yet in limestone soil we have seen
green manuring work wonders, and so

YOUNG DENIES CRIME.

Says Mrs. Pulitzer Was Killed by
Charles s. Filing.
Admitting his connection with the muir
der of Mrs. Pulitzer in New York, but
denying the actual killing, William
Hooper Young. fully identified in the
person of Bert Edwards, arrested at
Derby, Conn, as the man wanted by the
Gotham officers, was taken to that city
without extradition. 1t is a remarkable
story Young tells, although the police
throw doubt upon it. He asserts him
self to have been the scapegoat for a
friend.
Young says he was absent from his fat
in New York when the crime was commit
ted. He says that he and one Charles
Simpson Filing of Bridgeport, Conn.,,
lured the woman to Young's fat, where
Young left them On his return Young
says that Filing, who Immediately fled,
told him he had killed the woman by Civ
ing her choral hydrate in glass of beer.
Anxious to save his friend Young said
that he attempted to dismenber the body,
but that his nerve failed him and he sub
sequently removed it in a trunk and
dumped it into the Morris canal. No such
man as Filing is known in Bridg eport.
Filing is the name to which Young adj
dressed the trunk to Chicago. Young
says he expected Filing to go to Chicago
and claim the trunk.

TROOPS AWE STRIKERS.
Thirteenth Regiment Goes Into Cam
Mar Scranfou Pa


Nine companies of the Thirteenth regi-
ment, ordered out Monday night, are in
camp in a field near Scranton, Pa. Gen.
Goblin said Tuesday that he considered
the situation in the entire coal region
extremely forbidding which fully war
ranted the calling out of additional
troops.
Il have already ordered the Thir-
teenth regiment to the field. My Fian
for the distribution of troops is the
Twelfth to remain at Shenandoah and
Manila Park as at present; call out the
Fourth and place it at Mahonoy City,
where trouble is apt to occur at any min
ute; the Eighth at present at Shenan-
doah will be moved TO WnkeSbarre,
where l will make my headquarters"
When asked his opinion in regard to
the ordering out of the Thirteenth regi-
ment President Mitchell said:
Il have nothing to say at the present
time"
District Board Menlter Fallon said:
The ordering out of the regiment at
Scranton will have a tendency to
strengthen the cause OF the strikers and
encourage the men involved in the trou-
BILE, for about go per cent of the enlisted
men in the regiment are those who work
ed in the mines before the strike began.
These men will now draw pay from the
State, and this in turn viii prove of ma
terial benefit to the strikers relief fund
