It Is wortihjf of note that the greatest (lumber of Suicides are committed by the Germans. The form of death they choose is usually poisoning. In every country three-quarters of all the suicides ere of the male sex. It is almost impossible to realise the readiness with which the Chinese commit suicide. It requires the merest trifle to induce a Chinaman to hang himself. The first Instance of suicide recorded in scripture Is that of Samson <B. C. 1117). The second is that of Saul (B. C. 1055).

Martha Washington [?]imes.

Some half dimes minted in 1792 are said to be the first co ns which came from the United States mint. The first dimes were minted in France lrom silver plate furnished by Washington. They are called the Martha Washington dimes from the fact that an artist made en the coin a likeness of Martha Washington. This was, however, withwut the knowledge of Washington, who was greatly annoyed when he found his wife’s features'represented on the ooins, and -ordered them sent back and the flies changed. This was done. The features were somewhat altered and a cap added, but the alteration was not so oreat 'but that a distinct resemblance to the mother of her country ” may be detected 'in these coins.

When Charlemagne and his “ Knights of the Bound Table ’’ were making war on the Saracens, in Africa, it frequently happened that Knights on either side would fight in single combat for the honor of their respective armies.

But in these days the worst scourge that threatens ns, is {hat dread invader, Consumption. Consumption fastens its hold upon its victims while they are unconscious of its approach.

HOME AND THE FARM.

A DEPARTMENT MADE UP FOR OUR RURAL FRIENDS. Convenient Hayrack and Manger—Keep the Farm Tidy—Cultivating Potatoes— Artificial Method of Swarming Bees— H-w to Succeed With Stock. Hayrack and Manger. The hayrack and manger shown in the accompanying illustration from the American Agriculturist, is very cheap and simple, and will be found equally as serviceable and far more healthful than those costing three

times the amount. It is intended for those who feed their horses hay from above. The front of the rack, or chute, is twelve inches wide at the bottom and twenty inches at the top. The side is from twenty to twentyeight inches 'wide, the lower end being cut away-asehown.

Titty ®ip the Farm. In traveling through the country, with fences in good order, buildings 'looking neat and trim, trees trimmed and clean, we know the resident is a iperson who takes bride and interest In his farming, and that it pays him to do it It takes but a few days each year to keep the brush cut .away from the fences, to nail up a board here and there that may have become loosened, to keep the fences up Btraight, with no weak places to tempt stock to press through into the owner's or neighbors’ fields of grain or grass, to put the implements under shelter when not in use, to pick up boards lying about the barn and house, to trim the fruit trees and cut out all dead or dying branches, to mow the lawn at least once each year, to arrange all gates so that they will freely swing on their hinges, to have a well-kept garden; a good supply of 6mall fruit, the pump in good working order, a good supply of dry wood under shelter, to keep the roadside mowed and bushes cut down, to keep the outlet of expensive underdrains open, to clean out all open ditches, to look after the stock frequently. All these things take but a little time, and they increase the cash value of the farm. If you have, in the past, neglected these things, resolve that you will reform, and the strangers, in passing your door, may at least mentally say, “A good farmer resides there!” Possibly it will not allow as many leisure hours at the corner grocery, but others will take your place there, and you are adding to the worth of your earthly possessions, and to your standing as a man.—American Agriculturist. Vermin in a Hennery. To free a hennery from vermin, spray thoroughly with kerosene emulsion, so as to fill every crack and crevice with the liquid. The trouble with either whitewash or fumigation Is that they fail to go the bottom of the hiding place of the vermin. The emulsion gets there. To make the emulsion for this purpose, take of hard -soap one-half pound, or of soft soap two quarts, and one gallon of boiling water; stir until the soap is all dissolved, then adß one quart of kerosene, stirring until well mixed. An egg-beater is a good thing to mix With, or a small force pump is better to pump it back into itself. When thoroughly united, add 10 gallons of water, and stir well. With a force pump spray the inside of a house and roosts or, in the absence of a pump, apply with a brush sponge or large cloth. No matter what, if it be bountifully used. It is a capital plan to spray the fowls at night, when on the roosts, only when this is done there should be added one-half more water. Ts the house is sprayed about twice, and the fowls three times, each summer, ‘nary a louse’ will remain.

Cultivating Potatoes. With long, straight rows, as they -should be laid out, and a good twohorse sulky cultivator, an acre of potatoes or corn may be thoroughly worked, going once in a row in an hour. The old plan of running twice in a row iis obsolete and worse than useless. The way we manage is to take off the cultivator teeth, put on the .harrow or “bull-tongue,” chiselpointed steel teeth, set the frame to take the full width row, but not so as to injure the growing crop, and with fenders on each side of the outside .teeth to keep the loose soil from failing on the growing plants, the machine stirs every particle of soil between the rows, going to a depth of fiorn three to four inches Our object is not to plant more than we can thoroughly work. We And it pays to keep the cultivator running between the rows of corn, potatoes and beets after every heavy rain, not working the soil, however,' until it is dry or will crumble. . By so doing, the soil is always loose and mellow, and the weeds do not get a chance to grow. **ur potatoes and corn usually receive <Dur such cultivations, and sometimes five. By haryest all cultivation ceases, as the corn and potatoes are large enough to cover and shade them and very few weeds show themselves after this. If any large ones appear, they are pulled out by hand. —Baltimore American.

Cows may retain their usefulness until twelve Cattle and sheep are sold for meat hut with horses it is different A horse that has been a good and faithful servant for many years is often kept until he dies, which is better than selling him for a mere pittance, to be abused the remainder of his life. A good rule to follow is to disposeqf farm stock at or previous to their prime of life. Should Inform Himself. It would pay any farmer’s sou who

contemplates entering upon farming and breeding, to travel about the country for two or three months with a cattle buyer—one buying for shipment to a first class market. Object lessons are more convincing than any others, and the novice would secure plenty of food for thought before the end of the first month, and, if an apt student, he would have shed the scales from his eyes by the end of the third month, having a useful store of knowledge instead. Sheep Shearings. i Sheep are fond of variety of food and thrive upon it. Sheep have a good coat of wool, vet they need good shelter from storms. If the sheep are fed sulphur, keep them dry for a few days after feeding. Having the ewes in a good, thrifty condition at lambing is better than fat An occasional pet lamb in the flock will help materially to keep the flock tame. Feeding on low, wet land produces an unfavorable condition for the sheep One advantage with making a start in the sheep business is that it requires only a small amountof capital. By having the greater proportion of the sheep ewes, two profits can be secured with the lambs and with the wool. A thorough understanding with each would just be worth thousarffls of dollars to the wool growers of the country. Be careful and tag all of the sheep and especially the ewes that are suckling lambs before turning out into the pastures. Grinding tor an Easy Cut. Fasten a board or plank on top of the grind-stone frame, and rest the back of the sickle, or mowing-ma-chine knife, on it, as shown in cut. This is a much easier way of

holding them to grind, than to hold them out at arm’s length on top of the stone without a rest, as many do; besides with a little practice a true bevel can be ground on the knife, instead of a round one, as is very likely to be the case with the old way. By shifting from one side of jibe stone to the other, and from one edge to the other, the knives can ail be ground without a long shaft to the stone, and the stone will work true, if true and square in the first place. The stone should be turned towards the knife when grinaing.—F. A Putnam in Practical Farmer. Artificial Method of Swarming. Concerning an artificial method of swarming bees, an authority says: If you have any brood combs left over from last year, it will be of great benefit to use them in the brood chamber of your new swarms. This can be done by fastening them in the brood frames of your new hives; or if the old hives are of the same shape and size, then the frame with the combs can be hung in place of theempty frames, which will save valuable time and trouble. If your bees are about to swarm you can take a frame or two of such stocks and exchange for as many of the empty or old combs as you have taken of full brood and bees, being careful that you kDow which hive the queen is in, which does not make much difference so you give the hive plenty of empty combs in which you have left or placed the queen. I' often leave the queen in the old stock and give her plenty combs, taking most of the brood and bees for the new swarm and placing them in a new location, leaving the old stand with the queen and say one frame of brood, with plenty of empty combs as before mentioned for the use of the queen in the old location. She will in a few days fill them full of eggs. Your new swarm will raise a queen for themselves in the course of ten to fifteen days. If you have queen cells ready capped over at the time of making your artificial swarms, give them the advantage of such and you will save valuable time for the bees.

A Homemade Corner-Shelf. A very cheap and quickly made corner-shelf, or shelves, is shown in the accompanying illustration. The three large shelves are made from boards from 10 to 30 inches in width, and front rounded as indicated. The two front supports or standards are three feet in length, and one and a half inches square. The back standard is

the same size, only 10 inches longer, the short standards being ten inches long and one inch square. This arrangement is to be set in a corner. The top shelves and front are draped with cretonne. The upper shelves are used for lamps, books, etc., the lower shelves for the work basket, books, papers aud many other things. The whole outlay for lumber and cloth need not exceed 50 cents.— Agriculturists. Lin Stock Notes. Give the hogs good pasture during the hot weather, a good shade and all the pure water they want. It is not best to undertake to keep the pigs during the summer without feeding at least some gram. * Every horse owner should have a box stall or two in the bam. Box stalls are often convenie'’t- and useful. The calves and colts ought to he halter broken when small. It will save time and perhaps morals, later oa.

DEBATE THE TARIFF.

M-KINLEY. WARNER AND ST. JOHN AT MADISON, WIS. Henry W»tter»on CompnUed to Bo Aboont on Account of Slcknea*. and Hi* Place Taken by the Tariff-Reform Advocate of New York. AU Three Talked. Madison, AVis., special]: Ten thousand persons gathered at the lakeside to hear the McKinley-Warner joint debate Friday afternoon. A message arrived in the morning that Henry would be unable to take part in the debate, and W. C. Warner, of the New York Tariff Reform Club, who is stumping the State for the Demooratio committee, took his place. Mr. Warner spoke first. He defined Democracy as being “Equal rights to all, and special privileges to none.” The great question whioh had been raised by the adoption of the Democratic platform at Chicago, and which the people were to settle, was “Whether you could tax a nation into prosperity," and on this question he would chiefly dwell. The whole system of a protective tariff is founded on wrong and injustice. The system was instituted because we are a product of the feudal ages, a relic of the barbarous ages of the past. It was simply a means to compel the common people to bear the burdens which tho rioh should bear. If McKinley was rightly-reported to have said that the people do not know whether they are taxed $1 or $1,000,000 by an indirect system, what, then, is the use of making such a fuss about it? If the place of collecting these taxes were only moved nearer home, thore would bo a revolution not exeelted by that of Watt Tyler in England years ago. It is only the ignorance'of the common people which allows the present system to exist. The Democrats propose to put the revenue taxes just as high as possible upon the things the wealthy use and as low as possible upon what the poor use. As a result of the McKinley bill we now have a Democratic majority in Congress of 150 (almost as much as the tariff on seal plush). This 1b simply aiorecast of the mighty avalanche which will descend upon the Republica is next November. The aim of the Democrats, he said, was free trade. Governor McKinley held the vast audience till supper time. Said he: “What is tariff reform, anyway? Who can tell? Cleveland said several years ago that he knew nothing about the tariff. In his Madison Garden speech he told his auditors naught to show that time had brought enlightenment to his mind. And the 150 majority in Congress, what definition has it given to the term tariff reform? It has passed a bill to untax wool for ihe sole benefit of the New England manufacturer and the injury of all farmers, while leaving the duty on all woolen articles that man is counted on to wear. Yes, and it has passed a bill to lift the tariff on cotton ties for the benefit of the South, while the almost identical iron bands used in many other callings still have upon them the old duty. This is tariff reform. This is the economic polioy of the Democratic party, and it might better be called no policy at all, for it obviously represents no system and can Eroduce no uniform result for good or ad.” The speaker then dwelt on the subject of taxation. “This country,” ho declared, “must raise $400,000,000 taxes annually to defray the expanses of the administration. We must obtain from some source or another $1,0( 0,000 every twenty-four hours. There are only two ways possible—by levying a direct tax upon the people or an import duty on the products of foreign nations. Th* nation must adopt one or the other.” The speaker then dwelt on the disadvantage of the direct tax system and quoted Jefferson and Madison as earnest opponents of It in time of peace. In closing, he said that the United States had thirty years of protection, and the country has improved its financial position so that it is unrivaled among the nations, and $200,(i00,000 of the publlu debt has been paid. Thirty years ago 95 per cent, of the hardware of the country was of English make, but now 95 per cent, is American. The tariff or free trade ftas nothing to do with strikes or lockouts. It has nothing to do with differences between employer and employe. Gov. St. John spoke In behalf of the Prohibition party.

BOLD CRIME OF THE DALTONS They Enter a Bank In Broad Daylight and Carry Off AH the Money. The boldest robbery of the notorious Daltons was committed at El Beno, Oklahoma, at about 10:30 Wednesday morning. At that hour people passing along the street were startled by screams for help coming from the Bank of El Keno. The screams were from Mrs. S. W. Sawyer, wife of the President of the bank, who had just been held up by two robbers, who had also robbed the bank of slo,soi>. At 10:30 a stranger entered the bank, stepped up to the cashier’s window and made an inquiry about some town lots, and then stepped to a desk and commenced writing. In a moment another stranger stepped to the cashier’s desk, and presenting a revolver at Mrs. Sawyer's head, demanded that she hand out all the money in the bank. The woman was so frightened that she could not move, but the robber threatened to:oh'qpt if she did not act quickly, and in a dazed way she went to the vault and, handed to him all the packages of in the vault safe and what .was in the daily change drawer," aggregating about $lO,5! 0, and' less, than SIOO of it was in silver, man who was writiug at the desk turned quickly and grabbed the money:,as Mrs. Sawyer handed it through the wicket and disappeared out of the door, the one holding the revolver following quickly. Mrs. Sawyer screamed several times and fell over in a swoon. The robbers mounted horses that were standing at the edge of the pavement unhitched and rode out Bock Island avenue as fa-t as their horses could go. Mrs. Sawyer was the only person present in the bank, the President, her husband, being absent in Oklahoma. He arrived home about thirty minutes after the robbery. The robbery is believed to be the work of the Daltons on account of the manner of its execution.

HAS COST A MILLION. Estimate of Losses by the Great Homestead Strike. The great lock-out at Homestead is one month old, and has already cost over $1,000,000, besides the sacrifice of a half-score of human lives and serious injuries to many times that number. Of the loss in cash the military has oost in round figures $320,000, the workmen have lost in wages SIBO,OOO, and the Carnegie Company has lost and spent as much more in getting new workmen. The workmen at Beaver Falls, Duquesne, and the Union mills in Pittsburg have lost about SIOO,OOO in wages by their sympathy strike, and the firm is out $100,00.1 by the idleness of these plants. Added to this will be the county expenses for deputy sheriffs and murder trials, the expense to the city for hunting anarchists, and to the nation for Congressional investigations.

INTENSE HEAT THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. Abnormal Temperature T| the Cause of Many Fatalities—Sufferings Endured In tlie Crowded Centers of PopulationDeaths Reported from All Points. Victims by the Score. The fierce heat during tho past week has Leen terribly oppressive throughout the country, and the uuthber of fatalities from the effects of the sun has been greater than fur many years. Especially in the larger cities has the death rate been astourding. Tho result of tho heat last Wednesday In Chicago was alii: ost as bad as a battle. According to reports the rattle of the ambulauces over the hot dry pavements to where a little crowd had collected around a prostrate for u was heard e irly and late. Officers would push their way through the throng and lean over tho B‘rlokea one who had reele I under tho blasting rays of Old Sol. One of the stalwart men in blue feels the unfortunate’s pulse and looks up solemnly. The crowd falls back in awe. The man Is dead. He was walking along when he was seen to stagger suddenly, throw his hands to his head and fall heavily to the sldowalk. Who Is he? Nobody knows. Nobody knows whether he may have a mother, or a brother, or a wife or children .His body is borne off to the morgue, Where it is laid out among that awful family which has lately been so large, which goes among the office is of the law and a careless public who reads the notice with a passing glance, by that awful name “Unknown.” There have been hundreds of such cases iu the cities all over the country. Chioago in three days had sixty-eight deaths and nearly three hundred prostrations, while smaller cities suffered in like proportion. The climax was reaohed on Wednesday last. It was a red-hot, roasting day, and the largest number of people overcome by the heat in many years was re, orted. In Chicago the mercury reached 98 degrees, and men and women of all classes wilted down in the streets to the number of 128, thirty-two of whom died. Over 300 horses also suoCumbed on that day.

ture down from 90 to 61 degrees at North Platte, Neb. The ooolest plaoe recorded was Calgarry, in Alberta, over the British American line. The maximum temperature there was 34 degrees. Boston was two degrees hatter than Chioago, although it was visited by a shower. New York’s maximum was exactly the same as Chicago’s. President Harrison felt uncomfortable at Washington with 98 degrees, while the eloquent Senator Wolcott enjoyed the breezes at Denver, with a top-notch record of 66 degrees. As far sduth as New Orleans the mercury could only struggle up to 84 degrees. Omaha reached 98; Des Moines, 94; Detroit, 92; Milwaukee, 94; Cincinnati, 92; Kansas City, 90; St. Louis, 92; but it was only 64 at Helena, Mont., 66 at Bismarck, N. D., and 76 at Huron, 8. D. The strikers at Homestead had the heat of 96 degrees poured down on their troubled heads, while Rapid City, 8. D., enjoyed midsummer life with the high-wave notch of 60 degrees. Wichita, Kan., with 82, was near Nashville at 92, Davenport at 92, Louisville at 92, and Toledo at 90. Memphis and Oalveston ran a dead heat at 88.

CALIFORNIA TOWN WIPED OUT, Bod In* Once a Flourishing Mining Gump, Destroyed by Fire. Advices were received at Hawthorne, Nev., by messenger late Thursday nlgbl that Bodle, the largest town In Mono County, California, had been practically destroyed by a great fire. The flame! broke out at three o’clock In tbei morning in a bakery, and before the firemen reached the epot one whole block was in flames on both sides of the street. The town has only one volunteer fire company, and although the men worked hard they oould make very little Impression. The district burned Included about thirty stores of all kinds, the only one remaining being the grocery of Harvey Boone. Among those who are the heaviest losers are: Bodle Bailway and Lumber Company; Henry Coehen, dry goods; Delury & Garcia saloon; Kuhlman Brothers, druggists; S. Gensler and 'William Boush, general merchandise; C. H. Kelly, furniture; George W. Penter, banker; N. J. Salisbury, boots and shoes. The total loss Is SIOO,OOO, with trifling insurance. Many families lived over the stores, and theae are homeless, as they lost everything. The buildings were nearly all of wood and burned like tinder, giving no opportunity for removal of furniture.

ACED 115 YEARS. Death of Another Colored Woman Whc Knew George Washington. Maria Beed, colored, who Is said to be the oldest woman in Kentucky, died at her home In Louisville Wednesday. She was born in Virginia In 1777, and was consequently 115 years old. She was the mother of sixteen children, only two of whom are living. She moved to Louisville nearly a century ago and has lived there ever since. Her children, with whom she lived, claim that she was intimately acquainted with George Washington and a number ol other historical characters. Popular Equality. People who wish to reduce society to an absolute popular equality rarely care to begin the work of reformstion in their own households. WheD Mrs. Macaulay advocated this adjustment of affairs, Doctor Johnson silenced her by saying: “Madam, lam now become a convert to your way ol thinking. I am convinced that all mankind are upon an equal footing, and to give you an unquestionable proof, madam, that I am in earnest, here is a very sensible, civil, wellbehaved fellow citizen—your foot, man; 1 desire that he may be allowed to dine with us.”

‘August Flower” I had been troubled five monthi with Dyspepsia. I had a fullness after eating, and a heavy load in the ! pit of my stomach. Sometimes a I deathly sickness would overtake me. I was working for Thomas McHenry,Druggist,Allegheny City, Pa., in whose employ I had been for seven years. I used August Flower for two weeks. I was relieved of all trouble. I can now eat things I dared not touch before. I have gained twenty pounds since my recovery. J. D.
