The crops have been destroyed and railroad eommunicatiouswith many points is interrupted. Vote to Keturn to Work. Provuu-xck, June 12.—The striking weavers at the Weyliossett mills, Olneyville, have all voted to return to work in it body. The sti ik* is now practically conlined to the i*leteher mills, and here thi' operativi*s declare it will be continued. C’lieering 4’rop ICeport. St. Lot is, June 12.—Reports indicate that the wheat harvest has commenced in southeast Missouri and southern jllinois and is now in full blast over this section of the country. The rain of 10 days ago seems to have been wheat’s salvation and there can lie no doubt that more than an average crop will be threshed. Corn and oats are looking lino and pasiuraire was never better. Wtmt In? r. Indiana—Thunder showers; warmer. I>«*Bh l aiIh to Ht*|>ort. Chicago, June 12.—Five of the oflicers of the American Railway union returned to the Woodstock jail on the 5:30 train last evening. President Eugene V. Debs failed * > report in time for the train. Me called on the marshal at noon and was requested to report at the marshal’s office at 4 o’clock with the others or at the Northwestern station at 5 o’clock. Debs was last seen at noon and it is expected that he will report today. Struck a Kiel. Vein of Cool. Mascoutah, Ills., June 12.—After six months’ work and many discouraging failures, the new coal shaft east of the Louisville and Nashville depot here has lieoii gotten down to a good vein of coal. The coal was struck at a depth of 170 font

Stabbed III a Drunken Itrawl. Lai-okte, Ind.,* June 12.—William Dempsey, a laboring man, and George Whorrell, a plasterer, got involved in a saloon quarrel here, and Dempsey received an ugly stab. He will probably die. MU*ing Man Heard From. Adams, Ind., June 12.—Wilter Hart, who has been mysteriously missing, has been heard from. He is visiting relatives in Illinois. Struck With an Iron liar. Vincennes, Ind., June 12.—During the performance at Griffith’s circus at Monroe City, Will Bell, aged 15. attempted to see the show through a hole in the canvas, and some one on the inside struck the boy with an iron bar, inflicting a probably fatal wound. Citizens attempted to arrest the showman, but ho escaped. The Water Garden* Hardy aquatics that have been started indoors may be planted out or placed in tubs or tanks in May. Tender varieties had better bo kept under glass in northern localities until June 1. Keep all decaying leaves and rubbish removed from the surface of the water. Syringe or sprinkle the leaves occasionally to remove dust, aphis, etc. A sprinkling of tobacco dust occasionally may l>o found necessary to keep down aphis. See that small plants growing by the margins of ponds or streams are not overgrown by grass or weeds. Fruit Grown by Irrigation. Aii idea which was quite generally prevalent at one time that fruit growu by irrigation would bo inferior in flavor, less compact, and less desirable for keeping and shipping has been exploded by experience. On the other hand, irrigation at proper seasons and intelligently applied enables the production of a better fruit, in all these resnerts.

ParaMolM of Sweetness iiml Ught—Summer Outing Hati»—.Short Hox Coat*—Artistic Tea Gowns — Olive Harper’s Weekly Budget of Fashion. [Special Correspondence. ] New York. —Every season the modistes present some of the most attractive costumes and capes, calling them coaching garments. They are \v ,ra by the favored few, but they are aftcrward presented as elegant toilets for carriage, the races and visiting, so whether they are to be worn for one purpose or the other matters little—the garments themselves are handsome

FOR COACHING OR THK RACES. enough to talk about. In *.) lirst place, the parasol for coaching or for carriage is of a lighter and more ethereal build than any other. On that is placed all the whipped cream and sillabub of lightness and sweetness. The filmy chiffon, the transparent silk mull and a dozen other delicate fabrics are gathered, puffed and ruffled on them, and ribbon is rutiled up into little rosettes and stuck about wherever they will show to the best advantage. There are some quaint parasols of striped silk, entirely untrimmed. These are to wear with the strictly tailor made suits. The stripes are like those on the borders of Madras handkerchiefs. They are very chic. Then come the summer outing hats, covered with flowers, the great bunches standing up stiffiy and entirely covering the straw. Feathers, flowers, lace, jet and ribbons are used indiscriminately as one likes. Everything goes, hut for couching, the races or carriage the flower bed hats are just the proper caper. The natty little sailor hat holds its own for every occasion for those to whom it is more becoming than any other. The box coats—short ones reaching very little below the waist—are considered quite swell, and many ladies are wearing them. They are cut in three pieces, and, without darts or shape, they hang like bags. There are some very pretty and graceful covert coats incoachman’sdrab, made with immense sleeves, deep cuffs and “flowerpot” collars. Square buttons or extremely large bone buttons are set on the back and in front | and often oi the cuffs. The jackets must have extra large sleeves and have the arm sizes cut out very much to allow the dress sleeve to go in, and for that reason tho short cape is preferred for ordinary wear. Some very pretty ones are made of black velutina, cut so as to ripple very full. Set in five places where the folds will a low them to show are pieces of passementerie, with just beads emmgh to lighten it up. For maidens and elderly ladies the mantle shape is preferred and is made with two shaped seams down tho back and a fold or so to fit it slightly to tho figure. Bengaline, heavy reps, brocade and velvet are the materials most in use for these long mantles, though fine cloth is often seen. One mantle of fids style had a yoke collar of bengaline, from under which fell a rich rutile of black guipure. Ribbon bows and ends down the front added to its beauty. Short, full capes of silk, satin duchess and velutina often have narrow lines of fine jet trimming extending from the neck to the bottom all the way round. One such was lined with pale blue silk and had a full double pierrot collar of black chiffon, with a bit of black ribbon at the throat. Tea gowns are by no menus out of fashion. Some of the prettiest and most graceful garments for this purpose are shown this week. One really artistic tea gown has a ground of pale blue challie with old rose and lemon chrysanthe-; mums and their foliage as pattern. The / \

Congretiiinan Hi&rri* Ainoii£ Indian*, Cowboys and Cholera. [ Special Correspondence. J Washington. ' r_. -Congressman Harris of Kansas tells some g'xsl stories of his adventures while building the Kansas division of the Union Pacific railway. “I had a pretty rough time with Indians, cowboys, settlers ami cholera,” says Mr. Harris. “As we pushed along with the line of rails new tent towns would spring up in a night. There was always a town at the terminus of tho line, and as this moved every day the terminal city had to travel with tho rest of us. The citizens of these end of the line towns were graders and bull whackers, and the aristocrats were the gamblers and dance hall proprietors. They wore pretty lively camps. 1 remember seeing six men laid out in one spot as the result of tin epidemic of shooting that broke out one evening. “The Cheyennes were troublesome all the time. All our workmen had to ctirry arms, which were put on the ground within easy reach. Wo kept a lookout, too, for the redskins had a way of sneaking up the ‘draws’ or ravines and surprising us. Once I was with a party when our sentry fell asleep, and tho Indians got between ns and our guns. Twenty-two of our graders were killed. “Wild tuid reckless men were everywhere. There was Jim Curry. He was a locomotive engineer. Wo had just thrown a skeleton bridge, wooden bents with stringers and crosspieces, over a gorge. The rails were laid, hut had not been bolted in place. Some one said it would be impossible to run a train over j that bridge without an accident, but : Curry said it could be done. Ho accepted a wager of if 10 that ho could do it. and despite all protests sent his locomotive flying across that gulch at a rate of 40 miles an hour. I was in tin* bottom of the ravine watching tho bridge, and the timbers shook like bushes iua windstorm. But the engine went over all right, with daredevil Jim slicking his face out the window of his cab and grinping as if it were a great joke. Shortly aft r that he killed a man, but hid himself in tlm water tank of his engine and escaped. The last 1 heard of him he had just killed an actor in a restaurant down in Texas. “One of tin'most interesting characters I knew in those days was Wild Bill. After a long career as a fighter, with a belt full of scalps to his credit, he was elected town marshal and at once settled down as a c mrageous and conscientious preserver of the peace. The rough element were all afraid of him, and he ruled the town with an iron hand. On one occasion a gang of tough chaps from farther west thought to ruu the town for a day, when some one called their attention to Wild Bill and to his fame as a marksman. The newcomers said they didn’t believe be could shoot worth a cent. Just thou Bill came up, and this remark being repeated to him he whipped out two revolvers, used one in either hand, and with almost simultaneous, shots put both balls through the same ; hole in the top of a hat on the head of a - man standing 20 paces away. That was a feat which he often performed, and lie is the only man I ever saw that could do it. It appeared to be a gift like Blind Tom's performances on the piano. ” Walter Wellman.

THE POTATO PATCH. llohtou Ih to Try TIiIh Novel Plan of Setting: the Idle to Work. [Special Correspondence. J Boston, May 27.—Boston is to try the experiment this summer of setting the unemployed raising potatoes upon tho many vacant lots. Money litis been raised by private subscription and un used land freely offered, yet such sue- j cess as Mayor Pingree of Detroit obtained can hardly bo looked for. First, the movement is not started by the | mayor and backed up by city funds; second, Detroit has a large population of Poles, who, if they cannot get #1 a day, will work for sjil a week rather than be idle; third, to use city lots for raising vegetables is putting such land to its lowest use; fourth, to put labor that is capable of higher employments ! to this primitive one is ti waste. Yet, j when all is said, how small are the dis adviuitagescompared with the good that | has been already accomplished in other | cities I Some have thought that there] are but few now out of employment | who would bo willing so to work, yet a Sunday paper recently gave a graphic description of crowds of men and girls who responded to the call of a large firm for temporary help, tho wages oi fered the girls being only $1 per week. Mrs. Josephine Shaw Lowell says, “The poor have a profound and well grounded distrust of charity. ” They are slow to act, slow to perceive chances for their own good. Much patience and sympathy are often needed to induce them to put forth exertion, especially when underfed, but once done it will ho found that “man does not live by bread alone;” that even in the most despairing there is an infinite possibility of good and usefulness. And for those who will hail this use of vacant land as a joy and a saving, what a beneficence! This novel plan of setting the idle tit work upon vacant lots will be tried this summer in 20 cities. The scheme is growing in popularity. Last year in some cities many widows, assisted by their children, have planted their lots, tuid some—so says the reixirt—were forced to dig their potatoes before growu to satisfy their hunger. If anything shows the need of this plan, it is the pic tnre of such hunger. If anything shows the blessings of this plan, it is tho picture of the listless idle, nursed to life itnd activity by fresh country air tind the sight of growing things planted by their own hands.
