Look Out for These Swindlers.-Several
cases have occurred recently where fruit grow
ers have taken the advice of unknown or ire
sponsible agents to destroy their orchards in
fected with San Jose scale, or other insects or
diseases, the agent thus securing q sale of
trees for new orchard at the expense of the
grower, who, with proper care, might have
saved his trees and made them profitable for
many years.
Local inspectors have been engaged in vari-
GUS parts of Maryland to assist the officers of
the State Horticultural Department in inspect
ing orchards for San Jose scale, peach yellows,
etc., and they will be given certificates show
ing their identity. This certificate can be seen
by any person whom they visit. These inspec-
tors are men of experience in horticulture and
are familiar with our injurious insects and
diseases, and are responsible to the State Hor-
ticultural Department for their actions. They
can give necessary advice to growers on horti-
cultural subjects and may often assist them in
spraying or otherwise caring for their trees
Further information on this subject or any,
thing relating to horticultural work and in
furious insects or diseases may be obtained by

DANGERS OF KISSING.
Wen-Known French Scientist Says
Oscillation May Cause Mem
tai Disorder.

The well-krown French scientist, DR..
Fere, draws attention to the psyche.
pathic and homeopathic dangers that
may lie in kiss
DR.. Fere observes that some children
manifest strong, even violent, objec-
ton to being kissed by certain people
whom they otherwise love and revere.
He mentions the case of lady who
loves and adores her mother, yet from
childhood resented being kissed by her.
and this feeling has only grown stronger
with the years, the lady in question be-
ing now "a years of age. There are other
cases where kiss forced upon resent
ing children has had terrible results,
terminating in lifelong illness or serious
mental disturbances.
In the light of these observations par
ents should cease compelling their chill
dren to kiss or to receive kisses where
they show an earnest, not merely whim-
steal, objection.
For instance. a girl of years, who ais
ways objects to kisses. was one day
suddenly taken up by relative and
Kissed. The girl turned as white as
chalk, shrieked loudly, fell back in a
swoon, then was shaken by terrible cons
WILSON'S, and again swooned for about
half an hour. The attacks returned
every fortnight. They have now disap-
peared. but the girl is still subject to fire.

COAST ROCK IS MAGNET1zED.
Prof. Barnett, of Stanford University,
Makes an Interesting Discovery
on Il Tour of Alaska.

Samuel Jackson Barnett. assistant
professor of physics at Stanford uni
versity, California, has returned to the
university after several months spent
in survey work along the Alaskan coast.
Prof. Barnett left here last May to take
charge Of party sent out by the United
States coast and geodetic survey to
make accurate surveys of the northern
country along the coast line. The party
made special investigation in the Pc
culiar magnetic disturbances which
have made navigation difficult in certain
localities.
Near Skagway these disturbances
are very severe, the DETECTION OF the
needle being SO great that the compass
is rendered almost useless in that
neighborhood 1t was found that this
strange state of affairs was due to the
abundance of magnetic rock in the To-
cality. This rock is present in immense
quantities on Douglass island, and on
the mainland and near Skagway it is
especially abundant. Prof. Barnett
says that there was almost a perfect
magnetic pole at that point He will
prepare full report on the subject fos

CAUSE FOR SATISFACTION
For Wyndham in Way Bill Has Been
Received.

London, March 26.-Mr. Wyndham
has no cause to be dissatisfied with the
reception given to the Irish bill up to to
the present time. A days reflection
has not modified the first favorable
opinions expressed. Perhaps the
strongest indications of opposition yet
evinced have come from the Ulster
landlords. the majority of whom are
said to be unlikely to sell their estates.
s T. w. Russell. member for one of the
Ulster divisions. declares that this dit
ficulty, arising from the absence OF
compulsory clause in the bill will result
in a continuance of the agitation in
Ulster by the tenants who are thus ce-
prived of availing themselves of the
new measure.
VIM. O'Brien has issued a manifesto
criticising many features of the bill
but strongly deprecating anything Like
a hasty condemnation by the Nation
alists' convention.
Among the provisions of the bill
which Mr.. Wyndham had not time to
explain, yesterday, is very important
one. sweeping away all arrears Of
rent. except for the year preceding the
passage of the act Several other ex-
tremely good features of the measure
win also come to light when the text is

MUST ALL GO.
Carthusian Monks Must Leave France
With Other Orders.

Paris. March 26.LThe Chamber Of
Deputies, today, completed the govern
ments program regarding the male
religious orders which applied for au-
thorization to remain in France by re-
fusing, by large majority, the appli-
cation of the Carthusian monks, who
were separated from the other orders
as forming a class apart, they being
employed in manufacturing q cordial.
Theirs is the wealthiest order in
France.
Able Lemine spoke, today, on behalf
of the monks. urging that they spread
their benefactiops in the country
around the monastery and that the
money made by their industry was
freely distributed to the poor. The
true reason that the order was driven
from the country, said the speaker,
was that it was feared that their
money was used for political purposes.
This was untrue. +3tt
Premier Combes replied that the ar
guments in favor of the Carthusian
monks would be reduced to the asser-
ton that the order does good and that
the decision against it would be pain
fully received by the country. His
opinion was absolutely different. The
Carthusian monks live under the same
regime as the other orders and should
be treated in the same way. They
should not be favored because they
were rich. 1t had been urged that their
departure would cause a serious loss
to the department of Isere, in which
their monastery is situated. But the
Chamber must not be guided by con-
siderations of material interest.
1t was asserted that the Carthusian
monks did not NEEDLE in politics They
have not meddled openly with drums
and trumpets like the other orders, but
they conducted an active propaganda
against the republic. The superior
general of the Carthusian order signed
a recent pamphlet urging all citizens
not to pay their taxes and to boycott
the Republican officials.
The premier was much applauded as
he left the tribune at the conclusion
of his speech and the Chamber then,
by a vote of 1888 to 231, refused to dis
russ the application for authorization
ana adjourned.
The Superior and four Sisters of the
order of the Little Sisters of the AS
sumption appeared before the correc-
tional police court, today, on the
charge of violating the law of associa-
TONS. The Superior was sentenced to a
fine of $40 and the Sisters to $40 each.

THE IRISH LAND BILL.
John Redmond Gives His Views as to
Worth and Prospects.

London, March 26.-John Redmond wrote
the following for The Associated Press:
THE land bill in many respects is a far
reaching and important measure. 1t pro
poses a loan for the purpose OF enabling
the landlords to be bought out to the eX-
tent of a hundred million pounds, in ad-
dition to bonus, not to be. repaid. to
amount to at least twelve million pounds.
The bill does not fill all the requirements;
of the case. 1t does not provide as good
terms either for the landlords or tenants
as proposed at the recent land conference,
measure of it's kind hitherto proposed by
an English government. 1t is the direct
result of the unity of the National move
m PARLIAMENT for the last three years,
which led to the breakdown of coercion in
Ireland and which induced the landlords
to come to the conclusion that their best
interests lay in making friends with the
Irish people instead of continuing i'll con-
nict with them. The land conference
which ensued spoke in the name of United
Ireland
Regarding the result of this measure
l cannot speak with any certainty. It's de
tails, many of which seem to me highly
Objectionable, are capable of Improvement
by discussion. If tins measure should
provide. as everyone hopes. the settlement
of the land question. not only will a great
social and Industrial problem be put once
for all on a sound basis, but 1t Will mahe
a concession to home rule, in answer to
the unity of all classes in Ireland, a Ger
tainty in the near future.
Until the clauses of the bill are actual
~ in my hands | cannot say, OF course,
whether they will actually carry out the
project in view. Therefore | cannot say
to a certainty if the bill will be accepted
by the National convention which assem-
bles in Dublin. April IA. This great as
semhiy will have the deciding voice in the
matter. If it rejects the bill the measure
will be dead. If it accepts it. subject to
certain amendments. it is quite possible
the bill may he moulded in committee into
such shape that it will entirely trans
form Ireland
