Messina Was Warned.

Signs of the approach of this catas- rrophe had not been obscure. Warn ing had not been given of the impend. ing danger by abnormal atmospheric conditions, it is true. There had been no electrical tension in the air. But a general distemperature, says the cor. respondent of the Paris Temps, Ire acted on susceptible organizations.

SMUT RIDDING DISCOVERY.
Interesting Directions Given BY Mon
roe Earmer.

THE claims of the government in
vestigators writes "Puddi' in the
Monroe Record that corn smut is not
injurious to cattle may or may not
be endorsed by all farmers; but the
discovery by the scientists that the
black powder forming the punches
of smut growing on corn ears is
nothing less than a dense mass of
minute seeds of the smut, which If
allowed to ripen are driven in all
directions by the wind, to start new
and bigger crop the year following,
and that these seeds, or spores" as
the learned men call them, are so
hardy that their vitality is not de-
stroyed by the digestive process of
cattle or during the chemical changes
incident to the ordinary rotting or
decomposition of manure, is matter
of much greater moment, something
that few farmers will neglect to
profit by, and which is likely to even
tuate in a general effort to stamp out
this oldtime menace to cornfields.
Farmers have become interested
and begun to talk. Reports from
the western section of the county,
with which the writer is more fa-
miliar, say there is a great deal of
smut on the corn this year. A man
passing through Ross township told
the writer he had seen many infected
fields, one in which almost every 9TH
er cornstalk seemed to bear boil of
smut. Like stories come from other
localities A field free of smut
would be hard to find, while fields
with more or less of the blight are
the rule. In the aggregate the dam
age to corn must be great. Smut not
only cripples or renders worthless the
corn ear on which it grows, but stunts
the stalk itself, thereby decreasing
TO that extent the yield of fodder.
Besides, smut is decidedly unpleasant
to those cutting or husking corn thus
affected A Chestnuthill township
farmer remarked to the writer the
other day that there was so much
smut on his corn that when his cut
ters came in from the field at noon
and evening their hands and faces
were as black almost as though they
had worked in a mine.
Now this farmer is going to have
an end of it, which partly explains
why his cutters were so begrimed-
every bunch of smut was collected
for annihilation. Hitherto the farm
ers had little thought that the smut
seeds were scattered over fields by
the winds, like the seeds of weeds :
in fact, farmers had come to regard
smut on their corn as a matter of
course, attributable to no apparent
cause, yet always more plentiful
during summers that were dry. But
now that they know it's source, the
farmers will gather every bit of the
smut and burn it, like wild carrots,
Canada thistles and kindred noXious
stuff "

Rhubarb.


While rhubarb had been cultivated
In this country since 1873, 1t is only
lately that 1t has been grown as a
substitute for fruit. The early cult
walton Of the plant was altogether for
the sake OF the root, which was used
10 prepare the medicinal rhubarb. AS
regards the date of the introduction
of the rhubarb into this country we
may note that E. M. Holmes In the
Encyclopaedia Britannica" states
that 1t was introduced into England
through Sir Matthew Lister, physi-
clan to Charles l., who gave seed OBJ
tanned by him in Italy to the botan-
list Parkinson"
The rhubarb of our gardens is a ma
tive of Siberia and the basin of the
Volga, and its name recalls its Rus
sian origin. The ancient name Of
the Volga was the Ria, and the name
came to be applied to the root of the
plant imported from thence. So the
Romans called 1t Ria barbarum, the
foreign root. From this come the
French rhubarb and the English rhu-
barb. During its cultivation in this
country many new varieties of rhu-
barb have been raised from seed -.

Corn Grain in Lung of Young Man

With a grain of corn lodged in
his right lung and suffering great
pain as the result, six-year-old Ed
ward Lorah, an inmate of the Odd
Fellows Orphan home, near Sun
bury, was brought to the Harris
burg Hospital last Wednesday.
The little boy together with a
number of the boys at the home
was feeding some pigeons yesterday
at noon with corn. Young Lorah
placed several grains in his mouth.
He was running about the yard when
one of them accidentally slipped
down his throat. He choked and for
a while was unable to get his
breath. The superintendent of the
home took the little boy to the
Sunbury hospital but on the advice
of the surgeons there he was taken
to Harrisburg.
DR.. John F. Culp made an exam
ination last night and found that
the grain had lodged in the boys
windpipe from where it entered the
right lung. 1t is believed that deep
breathing caused the grain to move
from the windpipe into the lung.
Either of the two places is consid-
cred dangerous. After the eXamina-
ton it was concluded that the boy
would have to be taken to Pittsburg
where a specialist will make an ex-
animation and no doubt remove the
grain of corn.

SNOW WHITE DEER.
Church People NDuch for This Inter-
esting Story.

Pottsville, Pa, Oct. 22.-Members
of the Temple Methodist church,
Chester county, near here, while COM
ing home last night from a harvest
home celebration, saw a snow white
deer in the road opposite the prem
ises of Mrs. Emma Shaner of Cedar
vile. The deer, which, according to
the Methodists, had extra long horns
and was pure white in color, was
wonderfully agile. H. A. Nipple, A.
w. Nipple, Morris c. Shaner and
Howard Stublebine chased the ami
nal into the Shaner front yard.
The deer then leaped over a five
foot fence and escaped into a corn
field. Today large number of farm
ers are out hunting for the animal.
Some weeks ago Roy Haws, of CEDAR
Vile said that he had seen a white
deer in the sheep hill. He is not a
church member and his story was
discredited. 1t is no" credited gen
orally.

as is well known, was for years in
prison charged with completely in
the murder of Governor Goebel and
later pardoned by Governor Wilson.
Justice Horace II. Lurton, of Ten
nessee. was imprisoned at Columbus,
Ohio. during the Civil war. He was
one of Gen. John Nj. Morgan's raid
ers. with whom he was captured on
their rash venture into Indiana and
Ohio. Governor George w. Gordon,
representative from the tenth Ten
nessee district and commander of
the United Confederate Veterans as
sociation, spent some time in a
northern prison after his capture at
the battle of Franklin, where, lead
ing his brigade in a charge on the
Union breastworks, his horse car
ried him far in advance of his men
and into the arms of merciful enc
my who might have slain him, but
spared him for a rest from his i'm
petuosity in a secure northern pris-
on. Congressman Richardson, of the
eighth Alabama district, was in 1868,
a Confederate prisoner in Muir
freesboro, Tennessee Jail, under sent
ence to hang as a spy. He says he
would doubtless have met such a
fate, but for the fact that General
Forrest surprised the Federals and
rescued him. So there will be two

CROCODILE FISH IN MEXICO.
Skins Are Useful for Making Vallses
and Other Articles.

Consul Alphonse Lespinasse, writ
Ing from Frontera, says that the GRO
codile fish abound in the rivers and
streams of the Mexican State of Ta-
basco, and II properly cured the skin
could be utilized for a number of
purposes, especially in the manufac-
ture of valises, etc. The flesh is ex-
tensively used as food by the natives.
It contains a large percentage Of fine
oil, which is penetrating and soften
ing when applied to leather. Some
claim that It's medicinal properties
are superior to cod liver oil. The
crocodile fish is ten inches to four
feet long, and the skin when dried
assumes a dark ashen hue with light
shadings of blush tint, which pro-
duces an attractive appearance. A
concession has been granted to ex-
plot the fisheries in the territorial
waters of the Gulf of Mexico in the

that the whisky may be more potent
