MAKING A HOT-BRu.

A Massachusetts authority in DC
scribing the construction and starting
of a regular hot-bed, a y that a frame
twelve feet long and six feet wide
will allow of four sasheS, each three
feet wide. The frame should slant
back to front some six inches. The
sides and ends may be fastened to
co~rner-posts or by lemons and NOR
tiseS, which allow of taking up read
lily and packing away when hte sea-
Sol is over, For the sash to slide
and rest upon, a strip six inches wide
is mortised into the sides of the
frame. Sashes without cross bars are
the best, and the glass should over
lap each other one-Quarter Of an inch.
The bed should occupy a dry situa-
tion, with southern exposure, and be
protected by fences or buildings on
the north and west. The heating ma
terial should be fresh manure from
the stables, which has been turned
and mixed several times; a liberal
quantity Of litter, leaves or other ma
terial, that the heat may be more
lasting, all turned and mixed well,
otherwise it will burn and dry up and
become useless. When thus prepared,
pile the manur to the depth Of two
feet or more on the place chosen
for the bed, allowing the manure to
extend on all sides about a foot be-
yond the frame. Now, set on the frame
and the bed with fine sifted
mould to the depth Of six inches Of
earth, and as soon as the bed-mould
warns up, you may sou your seed.
II will not be long before you have
plants to use, provided you give good
after-care to prevent the plants from
burning. etc.-WeeklY Witness.

New Roadbed Material.

A new roadbed material is being
experimental with in Europe which
is economical, easily applied and very
durable 1t consists of a mixture OF
liquid tar and fine gravel. The gravel
is first heated in a revolving drum
and then the tar is allowed to mix
with it in the revolving chamber.
After this iNis dumped out and al
lowed to stand for several weeks,
during which time a fermentation is
said to take place and the tar is
said to penetrate into the pores OF
the gravel very thoroughly. It is
then scattered on the roadway and
rolled down. In addition to the other
merits claimed for 1t is the one that it
is dustless.

RUSTY FIRE IRONS.

Rusty irons should be well rubbed
with sweet oil, left for t~wenty-four
hours, and then secured with unslak-
ed lime; if the stains are very deep
the lime may be laid on as a paste,
and left for a day or two. 1t must be
kept in mind that if the rust has thor
oughly eaten into the steel nothing
will remove it.
Prevention in this case is better
than cure, and if fire irons, tops Of
tenders, ETC., are rubbed every day
with a piece of tissue, paper, rust will
not make its appearance.-New York

priSonment.
Wilmington, Del.-The Sudden
dismissal of the Federal Grand Jury,
assembled especially to probe into the
affairs of the Honduras National Lot
terry Company, and the notice to hun
dreds of witnesses, under subpoena,
that their attendance will not be re
quired, corroborates the news from
New Orleans that the gigantic gam
bling enterprise has surrendered.
Among those who have been ae-
cused of having an interest in the
Honduras Lottery are Alfred Hennen
Morris, David Hennen Morris, of New
York; Oscar Hanger, Of Hoboken,
and Frank T. Howard, of New Or
leans, receiver of the New Orleans
water works.
The principals in the game will
plead guilty and will pay a fine ag-
gregating about $300,009, which will
be the penalty in lieu of imprison-
ment. 1
Scores of prominent men in Louis
lana will contribute to this fund
rather than go to Jail, and~t United
States Government has elected to
accept these pleas of guilty, appar-
emily, rather than go to trial and
bring the big men in the game into
the limelight.
The surrender of the lottery men
is complete and unconditional. The
statement is made on trustworthy
authority that absolute assurance has
been given to the authorities at
Washington that the lottery has been
abandoned and it's property sold or
destroyed, and that there will be no
resumption of the sale of tickets in
any part of the United States at any
future time.
The company has not been in
active operation since January. Tick
cts are said to have been printed for
the February drawings, but they were
all recalled earlyIin that month, and
the agents were informed that they
would never be issued again. The
company is said to have offered its
fine building in Puerto Cortez, Hon
duras, where the drawings were held,
at public auction, having closed down
and dismantIed it.
It is also said that all the property
that the Honduras Lottery people
own in this country is being sold, to-
gether with all their machinery,
equipment of every kind, and in fact
everything in connection with the
enterprises
District Attorney Nields also said:
"The Government is proceeding as
rapidly as possible to destroy the
Honduran National Lottery Company.
to punish it's officers and agents and
to confiscate and destroy all its prop
erty."
John NJ. Rogers, whose large print
ing plant at Sixth and Orange streets,
in this city, was raided a year ago,
but who was never brought to trial
on that specific charge of printing
lottery tickets, is one of the most
prominent men of Wilmington He
is public spirited, and, being wealthy,
has given freely to numerous philan-
thropic movements.
