New York, March III. Whitaker
Wright, the London promoter, who is
accused of being concerned in colossal
frauds in connection with the organiza-
ton of various financial corporations,
was arrested on the arrival of the
French line steamer La Lorraine, from
Havre. The arrest was made by two
central office detectives at the request
of the London police.
With Wright on the steamship was a
tall, good looking young woman, who
said she was the niece of the prisoner.
Her name on the passenger list was
Miss F. Browne.
Wright, when told that he was under
arrest, showed TO evidence of excite
ment, and said he was a friend of King
Edward. His principal concern was to
avoid publicity, and he asked that his
arrest be kept from the newspapers.
Arrest Was Unexpected.
That Wright did not expect to be
arrested is shown by the fact that
after the steamship leIt Havre he told
the purser that a mistake had been
made in making the tickets out in the
name of Androni. HIS name accord
ingly was changed and appeared on the
additional list as j. w. Wright, and
that of the woman as Miss F. Browne.
Description of Wright.
Wright is thus described in the
cable message from the London police
"AbscOnder charged on warrant with
fraud to a large amount, Whitaker
Wright, manager of London and Globe
Finance corporation of this city. Aged
years; height feet 10 or IL inches
complexion, florid; hair and mustache
dark; large head small eyes.
Mr.. Wright and the young woman oc-
cupied one of the finest deck suites on
he steamship. Wright was sitting at a
desk in his cabin when found by the
detectives. When addressed by name
he at once admitted his identity, and
on being told that he was under ar
rest at the request of the London po-
lice, said:
THAT was a business transaction. |
understood that the matter was settled
in parliament. This is surprise to me.
l am willing to go with you. All want
is to get away from here with as little
noise as possible. Don't let the news
papers know anything about this"
They went on deck with the woman,
and told her of Wrignts arrest. With
an officer on each side of him, he was
escorted down the gangway.
Wright was taken to court, where
the detectives explained the arrest in
few words. Two United States mar
shals appeared with warrant for
Wright's arrest, charging him with be-
ing fugitive from justice Wright
was not called upon to say anything,
and in few minutes he was formally
turned over to the custody of the mar
shals, who took him to the Ludlow
street Jail.
Woman Watched Baggage.
Miss Browne, who was left on the
pier, remained looking after the bag
gage. She is rather tall, slender,
dressed in dark blue and wearing a
rather broad brim, low crowned hat,
draped with a flimsy light blue veil
She declined to make any statement,
beyond that she had come over to visit
friends. After her baggage had been
examined she left in a cab, instructing
the driver to go to An uptown hotel.

POTATOES THAT ROT.
Il IL Not only Advisable, But Abso.
luteIy Necessary, to Dispose OF
Them ct Once.

II the potatoes in the cellar begin
to rot it is well to dispose of them as
soon as possible. None of them should
be kept over for the coming spring, az
they will then carry into the next crop
the mycellium that has been the cause
Of the rot this year. Potato rot begins
in the form Of blight in the field. Later
it shows itself in the tubers stored in
the cellar. Ignorance regarding this
has kept many farm infected from
year to year, as the farmer has carried
over infected seed from one year to
another. When rot has appeared,
therefore, the only thing to do is to
get rid of the potatoes before they
have begun to show the disease. If
the rot is very bad, it will pay better
to feed the smallest of the tubers to
stock rather than run the risk of hav-
ing them all rot in the bins. In the
ordinary cellar it is rather difficult to
keep potatoes of any kind, much less
those with the rot mycellium con-
cealed within. In cold storage where
the temperature is kept at near the
freezing point there is less danger in
trying to hold them for some months.
In the ordinary cellar the temperature
frequently goes up to near the sew
entities on warm winter days, and this
is especially SO now that many farm
houses are heated by furnaces.-Farm-
ers' Review.

BOX FOR LIGHTED LANTERN.
the early morning, and a way of light
ing the floor must be provided. The
illustration shows how this can be
accomplished. A box with its bottom
replaced by pane of glass is fastened
against the boarding of the barn door,
or elsewhere, and hole cut through
the boarding, so that a lantern can be
set into the box from the outside, it's
light falling through the pane of glass
onto the feeding floor.
q If q reflector is attached to the little
door, as shown, it will throw strong
er light into the barn. So easily is
such an arrangement made that one
could well be provided for the feeding
floor and one for the door leading into
the cattle stalls. The lantern then
need never be carried into the stable,
but the interior lighted at any time
without any danger. Where the posi-
ton of the box would make it desir-
able to throw the light to both sides
as we'll as straight ahead the two
sides of the box, as we'll as the back
Of it, can be-provided with panes Of
glass. This would be especially desir-
able when lighting "tie-up'' for milk
ing time. The box could be arranged
midway between the ends.-Orange

Facts for potato Grover.,..

Potatoes are the most expensive Of
all the staple foods. They contain
from $50 to 800 pounds of water in
every 1000 pounds, the solid matter
being mostly starch. The farmer also
finds the potatocrop one of the most
.exacying in its requirements of labor,
one of the greatest obstacles being
warfare against beetles and diseases.
At present prices potatoes are more
expensive than beef, considering the
actual proportion Of nutritious mat
ter contained, but it is only when
prices are high that the potato crop
is very profitable, owing to the ex-
penses necessary for its cultivation.

when to Pillow tor Corn.

Usually it is better to pillow for corn
in the spring, because if the land is
plowed in the fall it has tendency
to become solid-that is, run togeth-
err" more or less by the winter and
spring rains, and this results in keep
ing the ground cold in the spring.
Corn, above most other plants raised
on the farm, requires warm soil rath-
er early in the season. Plow two to
three weeks, if the land is in good con-
dition, before the time of planting,
and allow the burrows to lie for this
period without being narrowed

TW FARM. WOOD Ion.


Every farm ought to have an acre or
more Of woodland. Ten acres to .
10O-acre farm il probably an ideal pro-
portion. In many portions of tho
country this woodland exists on un-
tillable hills and mountainsides. In
many places the wood lot, If it ever
exists, must be an artificial creation.
The wood lot will furnish a large pro-
portion Of the fuel needed on the farm.
The fuel tax will undoubtedly become
year by year heavier as wood and coal
become scarcer. It will furnish posts
for fencing and timber for repairs to
buildings. If sawmill is not con-
.venient, the logs can readily be dressed
into shape with thesbroadax.
Some years ago neighbor of mine
Inherited small tract of land which
was without buildings. He was q
mechanic, with large family, and
living in town, where there was little
chance to earn a good living for the
children. On the land inherited was .
good wood lot of probably seven acres.
Loose stone was abundant on the
sneighboring hills. Sand filed the gut
tiers at the roadside.
E Our friend rented house. and lot
near his land. In the winter. when he
could do no farm work, he collected
stone from the mountains. He made
out a bill of lumber necessary for q
house and barn. A portable sawmill
was brought to his wood lot, and the
lumber for the buildings was soon
piled up to season. Sand was gathered
from the roadside, and in two years,
lthrough.a good deal of hard work and
the aid of the wood lot, nice buildings
were erected, and all at very small
outlay, the man himself being able to
handle carpenters tools. If the tim
Der had not been on the land he could
not have erected the buildings.
Another friend, q teacher, purchased
small piece of woodland on which
was what appeared to be only small
amount of scrub pine. He planned q
house, made out bill of lumber
needed, cut the scrub pines and out
of it entirely erected his house, the
frame, siding, floors and shingles all
being from this timber, generally con-
sidered nearly worthless. This man,
having taste and mechanical ability in
addition, has really beautiful home,
and it cost him q very small sum for
labor. Not only will the wood lot fur
nish lumber, fencing, bean poles. ETC.,
but it will give to the owner and his
family glimpses of nature, so often
nearly wanting in well cultivated re-
gions.
In time the wood lot will have un-
derbrush and wild flowers. It will
form shelter for birds and rabbits
and will be a retreat to which the
family can go for rest and recreation
Tor an occasional half day in summer.
The wood lot will be a beautiful SPOT
on the farm. 1t will help to make the
children love the country. It will add
to the general charms of the land
scape. By all means let every farm
have its own piece of "woods.."-
