HUNGARIAN CONSUL SUED.
Editor or Hungarian Paper Wants S2s, 900
Damages for Accusation.

DAnnabCe IOr ACCubdAlOus
Papers in a libel suit for S25 900 damages
were filed against the acting Austro- Hun
garian Consul, George de Grivicic, in the
United States Circuit Court, yesterday.
The suit is brought by Michael Singer, one
OF the leaders in the New York Hungarian
colony, and editor and proprietor of the
Hungarian paper A BerdndoIo. or The
Immigrant" issued in Hungarian twice a
week, with Offices at 1870 West Nineteenth
street.
Singer has not approved Of the manage
ment of the Hungarian Immigrants Home
at 3 State street, and has lately criticised
It sharply in the columns Of his paper. At
a meeting Of the directors Of the home held on
September IS these criticisms were discussed.
De Grivicic jumped to his feet, and, ao-
cording to the complaint filed in the case, said
In Hungarian to his colleagues: What does
Michael Singer want, anyhow Why, this
il the identical Singer who embezzled 20 1000
forms in Budapest from Mrs. Beschitz.'
This Singer denies as a false and malicious
libel. Lawyer Hugo Hunfalvy, who is
his counsel, says that ten years ago Singer
was the correspondent in Budapest for
the Stats Zeitung and a number OF English
and European papers. While there he
took part in some OF the social charitable
concerns Of the Hungarian capital. Among
these was the Budapest branch of the
Baron de Hirsch Fund. A certain Mrs.
Beschitz, wife Of a Government official. was
chairman of this branch, and Singer was on
the board. 1t is to this Mrs. Beschitz, said
Mr.. Hunfalvy, that De Grivicic must ave
had reference. He said he never heard Of
any money being embezzled from Mrs.
Beschitz. De Grivicic's alleged accusation
spread rapidly, and soon all the Hungarian
colony was talking about It..

SEED BED FOR THE GARDEN
Preparation of the Soil Determines
What the Success Will Be
with Plants.

With view of preparing the most
suitable seed bed possible for our gar
den, which Is too often neglected upon
many farms, we first went over 1t twice
with a sharp disk harrow. the same
day It was plowed to depth OF be-
tween six and seven inches.
One days sun was allowed In which
to dry off the surface Of the soil SO
that 1t would not pack under the
horses feet. Then a float was run
over 1t several times, and again twice
disked, and again the float until the
surface was level and perfectly fine
This manner of working has given Q
fine loose seed bed the depth of the
blowing, which will retain moistur,
better, cause the plant food to be avail
able to the plants, and will be espe
cially favorable to strong rapid ger
mination of all garden seeds.
BY this method, says the Prairie
Farmer, the plant requires the leas
possible effort upon the part of The
young plants to send out roots and az
ford connection with the soil. With
this preparation we can reasonably ex
pect cultivation to be more effectively
and quickly done than II the under sol

Drains in Barnyards.

Drains in barnyards should not be
sub-earth drains unless the soil Of the
harnyard is Of soft, loose texture
Wherever the barnyard is composed OF
compacting soil, such as ordinary soil
suitable for tillage purposes, the drain
laid two or three feet under the sur
face will quickly become useless. The
stock soon tramp the ground into such
hard mass that 1t becomes imper-
vious to water, and the latter cannot
get down to the drain. II drain is

be run so close to the fence or the
buildings that the stock cannot walk
on top of It, The rest Of the land
should slope in the direction OF he
drain. Surface drains. says the Farm
er's Review, are always adapted to
/ barnyards, but these also should be
run near the fences or barns.

nentor when he went TO New York
on matters social.
Martha Il. Lewis was the daughter
Of a boat caullzer employed by Mr..
Brown. When only child In short
dresses the millionaire had taken to
her because she reminded him Of his
dead daughter when she was a tiny
girl. When she grew older he made
her his almoner in his many charities,
and when she was out of her teens
he had her made secretary of the Sun
day school which he had endowed.
Gifts were showered upon her just
as the were upon Miss Grace Brown.
For awhile things went along smooth
ly enough on the surface, but Mrs.
Brown gradually discovered that she
was being undermined. Miss Lewis
finally got control of the establish
ment and ran 1t with an iron hand.

The other Browns-brothers, cous.

A strange feature of this strang case
is that the millionaire provided bet

her in the rich marble mausoleum out

darkness another will was being made
in Pttsburg in the old Brown man

all she had believed was to be hers
was blotted out. But no one told her
this when she reached Pittsburg the
next morning.
Young Mrs. Brown was received
with open arms. Twenty days later
Samuel S. Brown died. During those
20 days the deathbed will did not
come to light. Mrs. Browns friends
say that 1t was purposely hidden so
that she would know nothing about it
until II should be too late. The mil

also left a will which is the bone OF
contention.

Where such field must be used 1t
should be fall plowed, at least two sea-
sons previous to planting with straw
berries and some such crop as early
cabbage. followed by crimson clover to
be fall plowed and the land immedi-
ately sown to buckwheat or rye for a
winter cover crop. The following
spring, after blowing. says the Orange

forward frequent rotation OF short

when the eggs are laid.
