Of cleaning the clothes without sub
jecting them to the harsh treatment
usual in an apparatus of this charac-
ter, as the Founders are SO attached to
the operating shaft as to yield readily
when any large mass of clothing is
encountered, instead of forcing their
way through the pile and perhaps,
tearing the garments. The, plungers
which carry the FOUNDER heads are
connected with the actuating shaft by
curved springs, instead of being joined
rigidly, and are thus disposed to yield,

RocHAMREAU's OPEN HAND.
The Debt Our Nation Owes to a Fa'
NOUS ETenchma1,

The Debt Our Nation Owes to Fa-
nous Frenchman.
Americans of today are too apt to for
get the great debt due from this ma
ton to France for the aid given to our
ancestors during the Revolutionary
war. 1t was not only the individual
services of men like the Marquis de
Lafayette, Baron de Kalb and General
Duportail, nor the invaluable aid Of
the seasoned veterans under Count de
Rochambeau, and the powerful fleet
of twenty-eight ships of the line under
Count de Grasse; in addition to this
France furnished the sinews of war,
from the want of which the cause of
liberty had suffered more than from
the want of men.
Even after the arrival of the French
troops in Philadelphia, when the COM
bined armies were preparing to march
to the aid of Lafayette, Washington
fn d that the men of the Northern
regiments were dissatisfied and pro-
tested against being moved to the
South. A large part of the troops had
not received any pay for a lon .4-Ae,
and had occasionally given evidence
of great discomfort. The service upon
which they were going was disagree
able, and the douceur of little hard
money would have the effect, Washing
ton thought, of putting them in the
proper temper.
In this emergency he was accom-
modated by the Count de Rochambeau
with a loan of $4,000, which, being
distributed among the different regi-
ments. and otherwise used for the re-
lief of the distresses of the American
soldiers, had the desired effect.
The pecuniary pressure was reliev-
ed by the arrival in Boston OF Colonel
John Laurence from his mission to
France, bringing with him two and
half million of nvres in cash, being
part of a subsidy of six million livres
granted by the French King.

Stewed Rhubarb.

Wash the rhubarb, peel it and cut
into pieces one inch long, Rhubarb
should always be cooked in double
boiler. Put in two tablespoonfuls OF
cold water and one quart OF cut rhu-

is soft, and sweeten to taste Some
persons do not like the full flavor of
the rhubarb, and add two cupfuls OF
water to render it less sharp When
this is done more sugar should be

Tomatoes Stuffed with Meat.

Plunge ten tomatoes into boiling wa

and pepper and fill the tomatoes with

Proper Packing of Fruit.


The finer varieties Of fruit should be
packed in boxes. When barrels are used
the best fruit is injured by overpress-
ing The fruit must be picked at the
right time. Last year lot Of the North
ern Spys We're picked so early that very
serious loss is the result, because the
warm weather has ruined tlreir keeping
qualities. The question of grading is
too large a one to deal with here. Great
care is necessary in grading, and the
work will be rendered much easier by
having a large quantity Of the one vari-
ETY.. In facing the barrel pick out fruit
that is fairly representative Of the con-
tents of the barrel Place the smaller
apples on the outside and the larger
ones in the center. The picking should
be done very carefully, care being
taken not to bruise the apples by drop
ping. Care mus be exercised in Earring
or shaking the barrel in filling, so as to
get the contents we'll shaken and to
avoid slackness, and at the same time
not bruise the fruit. This is best &C
complished by giving trembling mo-
ton to the barrel. IN hauling to the sta
ton a spring wagon should be used,
otherwise the fruit may be bruised IN
that way. The more the producer can
pack his own fruit the better it will be
for the trade. After picking the fruit
should be put inside, where it is dry.
The barrel or box should, as means Of
avoiding mistakes, be stenciled with
the name and address Of the packer,
and the grade and variety of the fruit

Farm Notes.

Some Of the weeds that cover the
fields will be eaten off by sheep if the
animals are given an opportunity to
destroy them. Put the sheep at work
at this season and they will destroy
many weed pests.
Wild carrots should be destroyed late
in summer, before the seeds mature, so
as to save labor. Being a biennial, the
wild carrot gets firm hold, and 1t is
very persistent, propagating itself rap

The affair happened as Miss Hunt was
passing from the stage enclosure to the

She was knocked down. Miss Hunt
screamed and the members of the COM

carried to the dressing tent and was
historical from pain. She resumed her
part, however, at the beginning OF the
third act and continued throughout the
performance. There were a number Of
boys hanging around the outside Of the

LOOKS LIKE ANTHONY.
Everything Now Points to His
appointment.

Washington. June 1.-THE Leaven~
worth postoffice matter, which has at
tracted so much attention here the past
few days, is now IN a fair way of be-
ing settled by the appointment Of D. r.
Anthony, Jr. The personal interest
given this case by the president, who
has openly expressed himself as desir
ing to reappoint young Anthony, has
resulted in Curtis securing 10 days de-
lay il the matter with a view TO har-
monizing matters by the withdrawal Of
Willard and Anthony's subsequent rec
ommendation. It is also stated that
something good for Willard will likely
result.
Curtis, Scott, Col Anthony and Dan
Anthony have held another conference
with the president. At the conclusion OF
a talk which covered the Kansas mat
ter pretty generally the president stated
his position. saying: "On account of
my personal regard for Colonel Anthony,
whose career in Kansas admire, whose
paper is my supporter and who has
shown himself my friend, I want to
oblige him. 1 am pleased with young
Mr. Anthony and want to appoint
him. If all you gentlemen can agree
/ will be very glad of it."
Colonel Anthony left today for Ro-
chester and Mr.. Anthony, Jr., starts for
Kansas this evening. All parties deny
that there is any senatorial significance
in this fight it being merely a contest
between friends of Curtis.
