 No Priest Summoned.

London, May Ii. LA p. m.-Mrs. F. sheehy SkehHngton, widow of the Irish editor, in a further statement to- day, declared that her husband. at the risk of his own life, went to the of Dublin Castle on Easter Monday afternoon, the crowd being afraid to venture near.

 From private sources Mrs. Skemng- ton says she received the following account of her husbands death:

 The widow declares that she re- ceived no notification of hen hus- bands death and that she was re- fused any information concerning him.

COUNTY CORN CLUB
 MEMBERS RECEIVE LETTERS
State Agent Tells Them How to Pre- pare, Plant and Cultivate their Plots.

-
 A. J. Brundage. state agent in charge of the boys and girls club work carried on by the Connecticut Agricultural college, the State Board of Education and the U. s. Department of Agriculture have sent out another letter to the members of the New Len- don County Corn club regarding the preparation of the plot, the planting of the seed and the cultivation of the plot. The letter reads as follows: Much work can be done in your corn club plots previous to the time your corn is up. so don't spare any pains in blowing and narrowing your corn field and if you have d weeder be sure to go over your corn field with it.
 Read over the following instructions carefully and carry them out con- scientiously and they will save you great deal of work later in the sea- son.
 Preparing the Plot.
 The field for your corn plot should he as good a piece of land as you can sod on a good grass sod. Old run out pasture land is not often the best for corn.
 Manure Spread evenly before blowing, Is to 20 loads to the acre If the manure is fine and well rotted
 
 blowing.
 Flowing and Narrowing Flow the land as early as possible and go over with a disc harrow the same day or the next day. The plot can then be left until a few days before planting, when it should be narrowed untii a fine mellow seed bed is made. Don't be afraid to spend time in narrowing. Fertilizer-If you plan to use com mereial fertilizer, it can be put broad cast just before the narrowing or put on with the corn planter. Fertilizer is expensive this year and if you have good manure use for fertilizer only 400 pounds per acre of acid phosphate. If you have no manure. use 1000 pounds per acre of a 4-10-0 formula.
 Planting.
 If you drop by hand. mark out the plot into squares, 3 feet by feet and drop 5 kernals at the corners of the squares. Cover with hoe. When the corn is , or inches high, thin out, leaving about 4 stalks in each hill. If you plant with machine, have the rows 3 feet apart
 Cultivation.
 If you have a weeder. go over the plot several times, beginning a few days after the corn is planted. This will kill the weeds as they start and keep the soil mellow
