How the alabama" Was Saved.


John Bassett Moore in Harper's Maga-
known that the Alabama, IN spite Of the
omission of the English customs authori-
tives to seize her, might in the end have
been detained but for an act of wifely de-
votion. On the POD and oath of July, 1862,
evidence directing inculpating the vessel
was communicated by the American lega-
ton in London to the British foreign Of
flee. On the 23d and Goth of July the pa
pers were referred to tho law Offices Of
the crown. and as the law officers had no
permanent office, We're sent as usual to
the senior officer, who was then Sir John
Dorney Harding, queens advocate, his
associates being Sir William Anterior, at
torney general. and Sir Rounded Palmer
afterward Lord Selborne, solicitor general
Unfortunately, Sir joan Harding had just
then fallen a victim to an acute mental
disorder which proved to be fatal. but
which his Wife. in tho hope that 1t would
soon pass away, had kept n secret. Upon
the decision to be rendered by the law Of
ficers there hung perchance the Issues Of
peace and war and the fate of nations;
but the papers lay unexamined at Sir
Johns residence, apparently, till the 2Sth
of July, when the foreign office, growing
anxious at the delay, but ignorant of its
cause. took steps to recover them and
placed them In the hands of Sir William
Atherton. On the evening of the same
day, Sir William. psrceivng the gravity
of the situation which the papers disclosed,
called Sir Rounded Palmer into consulta-
ton upon them in the. earl marshal's room
in tho house of lords They at once agreed
that the vessel must be seized. An opin-
ion to that effect was delivered to Earl
Russell on the morning of the 18th of
July: but during tho night Of the 2sth the
Alabama left the docks in which she had
been lying. AT 10 o'clock on the morning
of the 18th she put to sea. The order to
letain her reached Liverpool in the after.
noon.

Dy.Produees In Hog Feeding.

While the experiment station reports
that the results Of numerous trials by
farmers have shown very thoroughly
the advantage of the use OF di6ester
tankage, blood meal. etc, few turner's
make much use of any of them. Neither
do western farmers use as much gluten
feed or germ oil meal as would be prof.
table. Lack Of availability Is perhapg
the cause. Every farmer In this region
has corn, usually he has; and when
with which he is familiar and which hiB
stock is accustomed to eating. NO
doubt exists in many farmers' minds.
that some other feed would be better
for his hogs, as we'll as cheaper, apd
many are feeding more or less oil meafA
Oats are high in comparison with the
food contents, yet undoubtedly no single
grain is a better food product for any
or all animals than oats. Feed dealers
handle oil meal, and generally 1t can
be had in any desired quantities In all
the smaller towns. The by-products OK
the packing houses and the glucose
works are not. however. thus to be
age, blood meal, germ oil meal. etc.
the farmer must do his own investigaf-
ing and purchasing. If he does not want
full carload, and none but the extern
sive feeder would want that much az
flrst, he must pay local freight or work
up a CIuD OTu6F WIFI his IelBuVOTSS
Tankage solicitors are out in the coun-
try, but we have never had a man rep
resenting any other OF these feeds call
at our farm. Neither have we had any
personal experience with them. but
various farmers have given good re-
ports.
The Iowa station some time ago made
tests of tankage. beef meal and stock
food, each In connection with corn
against corn alone. The tankage fed
made much the cheapest pork. About
one-sixth of the whole feed was tank
age. While the farmer is wise who
feeds what he raises and raises what he
feeds, as q rule, there are times In
which he must buy feed, and 1t is Inn
portant to buy with knowledge Of what
is needed to produce the best result for
net profit. When corn is the most prom
inent feed, something else Is needed to
prevent waste and cause good, healthy
and rapid growth. What this should
be the successful farmer must ascer-
tain and buy what will most nearly
balance the corn feed at the lowest cost
price. Many of our readers are buying
corn and feeding 1t exclusively who
could much better spend part OF their
money for supplementary foods.

MURDER OR sUICIDf7
Joseph Brush, Farm Hand, Found
Dead With a Revolver by

Cedar Rapids, Ia, May 26.-Whether
or not Joseph Brush. farm hand Nv
ing near this city, whose dead body,
With bullet hole through the head,
was found in Riverside park, was a
suicide or victim of murder, is a ques-
ton which the coroner's jury has been
endeavoring thus far ineffectuSlly to
solve. The coroner's jury adjourned
late last night without having arrived
at a verdict. The testimony of some
boys who found loaded revolver with
one chamber empty, near the body, was
not satisfactory to the jury and Meth
err was the statement of 4. l.. Miller u
travelling man, whose memorandum
book was found near the body. Miller
says that he was in the park intoxi-
Gated. and while there dropped the
book. The boys claimed that they
found him in the park at o'clock in
the morning. They said that he was
breathing very heavily, and that they
though that he was drunk. One of them
picked up the revolver and carried 1t
home with him, failing to report the
matter to the police.
