EASTER MONDAY BALL.
Attended and Enjoyed by Several
Hundred People.-Great sue
CO.'S in every Way.

/ The post-Lenten seasons opening
was made auspicious in Grand June
ion by one of the most enjoyable and
one of the most successful balls ever
i given in the city. The Easter Mon
day ball planned and given by the
ladies of St JOseph's Catholic church
was attended by pleasures innumer-
able and will be held In fond memory
by the several hundred people who
were fortunate enough io participai g
in the merriment for many days to
come.
There are no people in Grand June
tion who can entertain more delight
fully or more sincerely than the lad
les OF St Josephs church and when IL
is announced that they have arrang-
ed some big social affair which is
open TO the public there can be no
doubt raised about the attendance
The Easter Monday ball took place
at the Auditorium. Shortly after
eight o'clock the dancers and the
nine O'Clock the crowd OF merry max
ers had grown to enormous proper
tions. 1t was a jolly crowd too, as
congenial throng of ladies and gem
tlement and boys and girls as ever
gathered under the Auditorium roof
Ii was also n handsome and a we'll
dressed crowd, making scene of
brightness and WITNESS that was in
deed good to look upon. New Easter
toggery was there in all its glory.
Shortly after nine O'Clock the
grand march was started. Mr.. Frank
Mahoney and Miss Anita O'Neil head
ed the long line which was made up
of over one hundred couples. The
march was splendidly executed and
was of long duration.
Following the march the regular
dance program was opened and never
was "the light fantastic" tripped
more gaily enthusiastic than on last
evening. There We're many among
the great company of dancers VINO
had religiously observed the Lenten
season and to these this first oppor-
tunity in many weeks to dance with
out grating upon their conscientious
scruples were enthusiasticallyem embrac-
ed
The dancing program pleased al
most every dancer. The music that
was rendered by Prof. Boyer's or
chestra was of the usual high class
and pleased immensely.
There were but short cessations II
the dancing all during the evening.
The guests were so numerous that
at times so many couples were on the
floor that there was serious danger OF
over crowding.
Beginning about midnight an ele-
gantly prepared supper was served on
on the stage by the ladies'. The menu
was most tempting and delightful.
The supper was partalSen of by the
great majority of the guests and
many compliments were passed upon
the excellent service.
II was after two O'Clock when the
last dance was enjoyed and the even
ing's gayeties were brought to an end.
To all appearances not guesl
found the evening anything but n
pIeasant one. There seemed 10 be a
rivalry as to who could get the great
est amount of pelasure out of the af-
fair.

THE FARM
FLOWING UNDER CORN FODDER.

In response to a query as to the
manurial value OF corn fodder a ton,
plowed under on the land where grown,
the Practical Farmer has this to say:
THE statistics of the Department of
Agriculture show that the corn stover
crop of the United States In 1897 was
nearly SO,000,000 tons, as compared
with the hay crop of 6O,665, 900 tons.
This corn stover would contain about
30 1000, 900 tons of food material actual
ly digestible by animals. These figures
are almost too large for comprehension.
They mean that the corn stover crop
of the country contains nearly or quite
as much digestible food materials as
the hay crop. And yet, while you
would hardly think of using the hay
crop as manure. you seriously ask what
would be the value of the corn fodder
used as manure. A ton Of corn stover
would have about 20.S pounds of nitro
gen. SIS pounds of phosphoric acid and
28 pounds OF potash. If it is properly
cured and shredded and fed and the
manure properly saved you would get
Its great feeding value and could save
more than rs per cent. of it's manurial
value. We do not think that the disk
or cutaway will chop the stalks so that
q crop can be planted on the land. The
best way to chop them up is to use the
shredder and feed the slower to cattle.

SEEDING WHEAT.

The preparation Of the soil for wheat
is as important matter as the selec-
ton OF the seed, fine SEED being the
foundation OF success in giving the
plants advantage of growth at the start
Not only must the land be pIowed deep
the drainage looked after and the seed
carefully drilled in, but the seed bed for
the wheat must be carefully prepared
before the drill Is used. IL the seed is
drilled In deep, where the soil is fine,the
wheat Will be less liable TO being thrown
OUT In the winter, and where The land Is
drained there will be lever plants winter
killed.
Land that has been In clover and fol-
lowed with corn is suitable for the
reason that the thorough cultivation re-
CURED by corn keeps down the weeds
am grass 1T is not an easy matter to
Kill weeds alter the wheat is I'D. If
the land Is plowed in summer the weeds
allowed to start and a weeder, harrow
o. cutivatOr then used, as often as re-
CURED until the seed is planted the
land will be cleaned.
In drilling the seed. the practice is to
apply the fertilizer with the seed. bur
the broadcast method is also preferred
by some, as fertilizer is then more even
~ distributed. If stable manure is
used it should be well rotteu, spread I'M
lformly and then worked into the soil
WI a harrow. Such preparation min
GIes the manure with the soil and does
mnfh TO give the crop uniformity of
growth. 1T should not be overworked
thai there are depressions in most fields
and water often remains longer on such
pdces than anywhere else, which neces-
states drainage, but If this cannot be
done. the deep blowing should be prac-
uced. which assists materially in allow
Ing the surplus moisture to pass down.

KING SERVED IN NAVY.
The New Ruler Of Norway Passed
Through Some Rough q
Experiences.

Norway's new king was once an ap-
prentice in the Danish navy. In the
mess to which he belonged he was
called by his first name-that is, Karl
in Danish-and he had to eat the same
grub" and stand the same hardships
as all the other apprentices. Although
everybody knew him to be prince of
the realm, no Difference whatever was
paid to him as such. On the contrary.
he was "hazed" and made miserable in
good old midshipman style. He took
his medicine bravely enough. On
board ship he had to. mend his own
clothes, darn his socks, sew on buttons
and keep his weapons and accouter-
ments In order. He slept in regula-
ton sailor hammock, with his clothes
rolled up under his head for q pillow,
without nightshirt and wearing only
sailors woolen striped undershirt
and bundled up in q woolen blanket,
sometimes with his sea boots dangling
by the hammock rope. He used to
make the big brass pinnacle fash like
silver mail He could never quite
get used to chewing tobacco, which In
the eyes of every true apprentice is
one Of the cardinal virtues, and when
ever he was seasick, which often hap
pened, he used to sit in the gangway
on bucket and chew rye bread.

has been extremely distasteful to many
congressman whose ideas of statesman

patronage. Men who, like Senator

like Roosevelt
The presidents enemies are making
great deal of noise just now and his
friends are keeping comparatively
quiet. knowing that the noise will do
no harm and all the criticism OF the
president will be fully answered by the
latter's actions. When the time comes
the presidents champions in both
house and senate will see to it that he
gets an the defense that is needed. The
president, however, has way Of meet
Ing criticism himself that leaves very
little for his friends to supply.
But this policy of meeting criticism
Of the president has followed very ef-
fectively in the case Of the Panama
canal. He has sent to congress every
scrap of information and every line Of
record of the transactions Of the Pan
anna commission and has told congress
that the reports he has transmitted
meet every criticism and attack that
has been made upon the commission
and upon the work done by the gov
ernment in Panama. He has followed
his policy Of publicity and has taken
the whole American people into his
confidence in his discussion and ex-
