THE ALFALFA PLANT.


II Was Cultivated In Asaa Ions De-
fore the Christian Era.
Alfalfa is a native Of southwestern
Asia and five centuries prior to the
Christian era had been carried to and
cultivated In southern Europe. The
Romans used and appreciated It as a
feed for their chariot and wal horses
before the birth Of Christ. From
Italy. In which country its growth has
been maintained continuously to the
present day. it found its way into
Spain and France.
The S~paniards during the Spanish In
vasion carried 1t into South America
and Mexico. During the middle Of
the nineteenth century 1t was intro
duced into this country through Call
fornia by the Chileans. Since then It
has gradually spread eastward until
today there Is probably not a state or
territory In the Union In which this

RUSSiA'S NEW DISGRACE.

Disgraced and in exile, forced to
ask aid from a charitable institu-
ton, and now even his life threat
ened, the fate of General Stoeesel,
the famous defender Of Port Ar
thur, is one of the saddest that
could be chronicled, as we'll as one
of the most scathing arrangements
OF the Russian army that could be
made.
Recently a pamphlet was pub
lished in st. Petersburg charging
that the downfall Of Stoessel was
brought about by Peter Durnovo,
former minister OF the interior and
perhaps the most powerful man in
all Russia. A challenge for q duel
to the death is said to have been
issued by the general, but declined
by Durnovo.
A court martial of General Stoes-
sci composed Of a court, alleged to
be made up Of the tools of Durnovo,
was unable to ind facts on which
to substantiate the charges of COW.
ardice that had been made. The
court, however, refused to clear the
general entirely, and he was lef,
