THE HOSIERY WORLD UPSET. Because of a Scratch on a Limb, Stocking* Change In Color. In Paris the cry has gone up: “No more black stockings!” and the shops in Paris, eager to please, and obedient to the voices of their fashionable customers. exhibit now heap® of silk and thread hosiery, all of the same color, but infinitely varigated in shades, from the dark gray called steel gray to the palest dove tint. A few white articles are seen among the lot, and, away in a remote corner, a thousand pairs" of black silk stockings, open-worked, as thin as the webs of the most artistic spiuer, lovely, but disdained and snubbed by their friends of old, are given away almost for nothing. The reason of this sore disgrace is the illness of the Austrian Grand Duchess Marie lmmaculae Clementine, who has nearly lost her leg; an insignificant scratch near her ankle having been neglected, and simply covered by the silky net of her black stocking, got enflamed, and was declared poisoned; an abscess followed, and then came a tremendous imperial fuss. As sood as this was known in Paris the hosiery world was upset at once, and the limbs of beauty will display this summer all the shades of a cloudy eky. Watermelon Patch in Her Throat. Little Addie Cunningham, of Fall River, has passed through a remarkable experience. On the ibth of last September she was eating watermelon, when a seed lodged in her windpipe. She was seized with a terrible fit of coughing, and for weeks her life was despaired of. Physicians cculd do nothing for lier. and she wasted away to a skeleton. She was seized with a terrible fit of coughing a few days ago, and the melon seed was thrown out. It was three limes the regular size of the ordinary seed and contained a long sprout, which was evidently growing in her windpipe. She was immediately relieved, and can now breathe easily.

WILL BE FOUND JN THIS DEPARTMENT. Method of Constructing a Special Bonding hi Which to Evaporate Fruit—A Potato Planter That Can Be Made for •*— Cart for Slope. A Home-Made Fruit Evaporator. The process of evaporation Is the cheapest known method of preserving indefinitely, for future use or for market, such fruits as raspberries, blackberries, cherries, apricots, plums, or apples, says the Orange Judd Farmer. In a season of plenty, it enables one to preserve in a condensed and readily available form, fruit which would otherwise be sold at a low price, or allowed to decay, home Excellent forms of evaporators are upon the market, and may be obtained ready to set up for immediate use. However, when several acres of berries are to be evaporated, or fruit is evaporated for other parties, It is test to put up a building especially

FIG. 1.--EXTERIOR VIEW OF EVAPORATOR

for the purpose, and to a person skillful with tools the expense need not be great. The exterior of a convenient and cheap form of evaporator is shown in Fig. 1. This is large enough to evaporate 100 bushels of raspberries every twenty-four hour?. The building Is eight feet wide and twenty-two feet long. The sides and roof may be simply boarded up aud down, or finished as elaborately ps desired. If possible, locate the fruit drying house upon a sidehill. Build the foundation wall at the end farthest from the hill nearly five feet high. Make the side walls two feet thick which will give the enclosure a diameter of lour feet. For a building of this size a common box cast-iron stove, one foot square and two and a half feet long will, with dry wood for fuel, furnish all the heat necessary, but it requires almost constant attention, and the heat will not be uniform. Hence, if possible, put in one of the low-down, anthracite coal base-burners. An interior view of the evaporator is given in Fig. 1. The evaporator chutes are built,directly over the furnace room, and their size should cor-‘ respond'to the size of' the sie.es.. or. trays, the largest of which are ' four feet square When these are uniformly covered with a bushel of berries each, it requires considerable strength to handle them quickly, as the little drop doors should not remain open longer than is absolutely necessary, lest too much heat escape. The drop doois, n, are five inches wide, aud each space will admit two sieves. Tne strip to which the doors are hinged is one and a half inches wide. Two chutes are shown in the sketch. Often three are erected side by side. The wire for a four-foot square sieve of the best galvanized

material, costs about 75 cents. It comes in rolls of different widths. A long box about one foot deep will prove convenient to throw the evaporated fruit into direct from the sieves, from which it is readily shoveled into bags, boxes, or other receptacles. This room should be well lighted, and racks may be placed along the walls for holding picking trays, baskets and other things when in use. Homemade Potato Planter. J. N. Frye in the Ohio Farmer describes a potato planter which is very simple, and yet does its work completely. It consists of a frame supported on machine wheels, which can be bought for price of old iron. 'Wheels with a r.m of cogs are preferred. The shoe is made of quarter-inch Bteel, eight inches wide at heel and tapering off narrower, and is cut or bent of a corn planter shoe or hoe. The rear should be sjkead apart (the two being first

riveted together) so as to allow the potato to pass through to the ground. This shoe is supported by four braces riveted to the shoe and bolted on opposite sides of the frame, thus allowing it to swing. The chain, which can be taken up or let out at will, pulls the shoe and also regulates the depth of planting. The driver sits on the box, which Bhould hold at least onn bushel. ' The box is raised above the axle, thus allowing room for the driver’s feet, and makes it easier dropping. The markfer is adjustable and can be changed to either side without getting off. The plan'for getting the potatoes the proper distance apart is quite simple also. A short piece of fence wire with a ring bent on each end is bent down oveY the rim of the cogwheel; a bolt is placed through the rings and between two cogs, then the tap put no tight The number of

bolt* needed will depend upon the distance apart that you wish to plant New fasten a spring on the frame so that it will touch these bolts, and the dropper is told just when to drop Anyone who can handle tools fairly well can build this dropper. It will cost uot to exceed $2. How Flanta Get Nitrogen. Nitrogen is the most valuable element of fertility in soil, is tbe most abundant one in nature and is about tbe hardest odo to get in a form available for plant food The air we breathe is about four-fifths nitrogen, the other fifth being oxygen. In breathing we use the oxygen and dis ard the nitrogen. Pure oxygen would be too st ong, and we should be killed by breathing it, and nitrogen has been regarded as merely a diluting material. All attempts to secure this nitrogen from the air in a shape in which it would be available for plant food have failed, but it has been discovered within a few years that the leguminous plants, cloverst peas, beans, vetches, etc., can grow without being supplied with nitrogen if supplied with phosphoric acid and potash. It is now believed that the plants get their supply of atmospheric nitrogen through the agency of bacteria or microbes, very low forms of life, certain varieties of which are found where leguminous plants have been grown. Whether this be true or not, it is certain that crops of any of the leguminous plants plowed under when in full bloom will fertilize the soil and enable it to produce good crops sooner and cheaper than any known ageucy. For this reason those who own farms which are at all sterile in the North should grow clovers, and those in the South should grow cow peas. The study of farm chemistry is a very interesting one, and we hope to interest our readers in it in a series of articles concerning the myst ries of •green th’ngs growing” which we shall publish in future numbers.— American Farmer. Barrel Cart. Some time ago a correspondent of the Rural New Yorker told about his barrel on wheels, which he used for carrying swill and slops Irom the kitchen door. As a barrel cart affords a universally needed conven-

CART FOR CARRYING SLOPS.

ience, the journal mentioned gave an illustrated description of an arrangement made in the West: As will be seen, tbe hpoks can be placed on any barrel. All the operator nas to do is to back up his wheels and “catch on.” It is a great convenience In hauling heavy barrels. The Importance of Thinning Crop*. I am satisfied that but lew farmers know tbe importance of thinning. They seem to think nothing needs thinning but corn. One bought some laspberries of me and said: “Come look at my vines and tell me what is the matter with them; they are a good kind but won’t bear.” Hooked and saw at once I said: “How many stalks have you in each hilly” He laughed and said about forty. I said; “What is the use of carrying your brains around wilh you if you don’t use them?” There are ten strawberry plants whe.e there should De one as a rule. One good, thrifty, well-formed blackberry or raspberry stalk is worth a dozen over-crowded, thriftless, limbless ones. I once planted a big potato whole to get big potatoes, and got a big hill lull of little potatoes. It would have been all the same if I had planted a big ear of corn whole in a hill and expected big corn. Potatoes should be thinned to one or two eyes before planting. Few farmers do it-. To thin my crop as I ought has taken more nerve than anything I have undertaken on the farm.—W. L. Anderson in Farm and Home.

Keeping the Grass N>ut of Corn. Says W. J. Kirk, of corn culture: “Commence working early and don’t stop until all grass an l weeds are destroye 1, for when cultivating the corn :s the time for the farmer to prepare his ground for the c o s of the futur . If the farmer has a grassy corn field at husking time he cannot expect his oats to be a full crop wth the grass ' choking them out, nor will his wheat be better, while his timothy ana clover will be a failure. He will wonder why, but it w 11 be ther. sultof not cultivating his corn mo e thoroughly, espec ally at the last working- It is economy to pay harvest wages at the last working rather than miss having cone it* ” - Farm Notes. Half a teaspoonful of sugar scattered over a dying fire is better than kerosene, and has no element of danger! There is no reason why every farmer should not keep bees Honey costs nothing, and is a valuable product, considering the price it usually brings in comparison with the small expense incurred in its production. A dairy writer says you ' bad better begin dairying with two cows and a strong desire to thoroughly-'learn the business than with ten coWs and a confident feeling that you cab succeed as well as old hands in the business. an apple grower thinks that !u setting an orchard we should get such apples as are best suited to our soil and climate, and are In demand ?n the markets, and not fill our orchards with only such as suit our taste at home. , Much is said of late about sterilizing milk before use. Better far to look more after the health and surroundings of the cows, that their milk he f ee from all objectionable conditions, in which case no germkilling process is called tor.

Strike is at an end.

TRAINS AT CHICAGO NOW RUNNING AS USUAL. From Evory Direction Come Reports of Men Returning to Work, and Both Passenger and Freight Traffic Resuming Normal Condition.—For Arbitration. Trouble Is Over. The great railway strike is at ar end. In Chicago. Trains on all roads are moving. Passenger trains are again on time, and freight traffic is rapidly becoming regular. The railroad companies have called a halt in the importation of new men to take the places of strikers. They claim to have manned all the important vacancies with competent men, and that the operation of the various reads is rapidly assuming normal smoothness, it is said by the general managers that there are now enough applicants for w-ork in Chicago to supply remaining vacancies, and that no necessity exists for bringing in more men from other labor centers. On some of the roads it is pretty well known, though “officially” denied, that in the employment of men the strikers are b.-ing discriminated against. On other roads a more generous spirit prevails and the old men are given the preference, though without exception The companies say they will stand by the new men who came forward at the risk o' their lives (as they believed and took the pluces of the strikers. In the scramble among former employes to get back their jobs some amusing incidents crop out. The president of one of the largest corporations was running through the excuses piled upon his desk from employes explaining how it happened that they had not reported for duty the last two or three weeks, and found th'at out of 135 commiyncnions, thirty-two related to births in the family and the consequent train of sickness and misfortune. On comparing notes it was learned that the employing officials on every other road were overwhelmed with similar excuses, which led them to the conclusion that strikes have an extraordistimulating effect on population statistics. The epidemic of sickness in the families of strikers who want to get back to work is widespread and include s relatives of all degrees, from wives, children, mothers and fathers to thirty-.econd cou.ins by marriage or adoption. Quiet Everywhere.

Reports from all over the country indicate that the greatest labor disturbance which has ever occurred in this or in any other country is at an end, and it may bo said to the credit of the authorities that the trouble was suppressed with comparatively little bloodshed. Happily the struggle between the armed representatives of order and those engaged in defying law, destroying property and obstructing- the operation of the railroads centering in the great town of Illinois did not materialize to any groat extent. For those not disposed to reason the presence ot an army of 10,00 u men in Chicago had a quieting effect, as the troopers had orders to shoot to kill, when law breakers set out to burn and pillage the property of the railroad companies. Undoubtedly their presence did much to keep the turbulent in subjection. And it must be confessed that the regulars bore themselves like brave suldiers in refraining from shooting when provocation to do so was very strong. Cleveland tor Arbitration. It is reported from Washington that the President will appoint a commission, by the authority given him by the arbitration act of 1818, to investigate the iabor troubles at Chicago and elsewhere and report to the President and Congress. This determination on the part of the President was arrived at alter an interview with SecretaryTreasurer Hayes of the Knights of Labor, McGuire and French of ttie Executive Committee, and Mr. Schconfaber, who were introduced to the President by Senator Kyle, and who came bearing credentials from the American Bailway Union, the Pullman employes, and several labor organizations. After discussing the various features of the situation for more than an hour the President promise i that if the leaders would return to Chicago and use their influence toward restoring peace and order he would appoint the commission as soon as tho disturbances had ceased to such an extent as to render a careful, thoughtful investigation possible^

SPIRIT OF THE STRIKE. To Countenance Buch an Uprising: Would Be Dangerous to the Country. Just when the bituminous coal miners’ strike had been settled and it be- ! gan to look us if there wai some hope of the railroads being able to earn enough to keep them out of the bands i of receivers, the wheels on every road from the eastern slope of the Mississippi Valley to the Pacific coast were either actually stopped, or active preparations were under way to bring them to a standstill. Never wai the action of the railroad officials more important, never were the principles invohed more vi al. The annual traffic re enue of the railroids of the United ! States amounts to considerably more than a thousand million dollars: it was proposed to stop this revenue and in so doing to cripple or destroy every business enterprise throughout the count y which is dependent upon the railroads for transportion, while a few hot-headed labor * leaders settled a question of difference which ha I arisen wholly outside of the management of th? railroad companies th-mselves. It was absolutely of no consequence whatever whether the position taken by Mr. Puitman, or the Pullman Palace ; Car Company, was right or wrong; that question was in no way involved. To raise it to the dignity of a moment s j consideration is to concede that the leaders of an v labor organization have a right to stop the turning of the | wheels on 150,000 miles of railroad, while they settled a dispute with the manufacturer of axle grease without the liberal use of which it is, of cOurte, unsafe to move trains. Or they might pick a qua- rel with a car wheel manufacturer and then insist that all the wheels made by the concern should be taken off and replaced by others, before the trains would be allowed to run again. Indeed, these I propositions would be more reasonable j than the recent demand made, for there are numerous manufacturers of axle j and of car wheels, but with the exception of one other .company whoso car* are fully employed on a few lines, | the e are no sleeping or palace cars except those made by the Pullman Company. A prominent railway president stated the matter very tersely ! when he said: | The spirit of the strike, as I under it and It, is, by closing up the railroads and detaining travelers all over the country wherever they may be, to create a public opinion which will compel the manufacturing company to secure work and do It. no matter what the low may. With the i relations between the manufacturing comI pany and their employes the railway com- ! panies hare nothing- to do, and it la. none •f their business. That Is a matter which

ought to be adjusted by the parties lames dlateiy concerned. Hat precisely how stopping thousands of people on the arid plains of Arisons, and In the super-heated belt of the North<rest, many of them women and children, many of them travelers hastening to the bedsides of dying mothers. wives or children, many of them Invalids who may lose their lives by the exposure. Is to compel a manufacturing Company to find contracts to build cars and then build them. Is just one of those problems which the railway mind Is unable to grasp It la impossible to contemplate the i action of the many thousands of railway employes in blindly following the mandates of an irresp >nsible loalor, without a feeling of wonder and astonishment, to say nothing of disappointment and humiliation, which it inspire*. The only explanation that can be given is that they have done so because they are blind. But this fact only augments the duty devolving upon the managers of the railroads in resisting the influence of those who arrogantly assume the position of .-supremo dictators, and also in opening the eves of the poor, delude:! fellows who follow them. There is no middle ground for the railroad manager. To parley with, or in any way to recognize for a moment, the leaders of such a strike, would be a movement fraught with the greatest danger to the prosperity not 3 of the railroads throughout the country but, also, ts the country itself.

Sith Gen. Howard and his staff Gen. ancock discussed the battle. The figure is supposed to represent him in the act of telling his asm oiates that the brunt of the battle would fall on Round Top. The sculptor’s idea has been to represent the intellectual characteristics of the commander, and not the merely physical. The height of the horse is six feet six inches to the withers, and the ent re height of tho statue is seventeen feet. The horse stands on a well designed architectural pinth, tho work of a friend of the sculptor. On-eaeh side is a cartouch bearing on one tho namo of the Mulpto" and on the other the namn' * < Haneo(!k." ——- Gen. Hancock is represented seated in the saddle in a position which Capt. Ward, who was his aid during the war, has pronounced vory characteristic. There is no sword or other appurtenance, the purpose being to malco tho statue broad and dignified in effect. The face wears an expression of intenss interest and the eyes are looking out over the Hold. The horse has three 'eet on the ground and one raised pawing the air.

QUEBEC'S OLD WALLS.

The Famous Old Cltudel Fast Falling Into Decay, The old walls of tho Citadel at Quebec are famous, and are among tho most interesting historical monuments of the continent; A report is current that in p'aces they liavo fallen into decay, and that Borne of the secret underground passages connecting tho fortress with tho city have tumbled in and become lilted up and absolutely useless. Beforj tho withdrawal of British troop* from Canada twenty years ago companies of the Koyal Engineers were engaged in keeping the citadel in perfect repair. That the recent alarm created by the neglect into which the offcrtress has fallen is not exaggerated lfl-*hown by th >■ annual report of the Dspartiuent of the Militia and Defense, recently submitted to Parliament. It is recomnuncied in this document that a body of engineers and artificers be constantly employed to keep the old walls in ord;r. Un'ess this is done Quebec s elaborate system of fortifications, that has for so many years past proved one cf the principal attractions for tourists, will speedily crumble into a mass of ruins. The money spent upon those works in the past is simply incredible. Woodon fortifications were erected there by the French colonists, and so heavy was the expenditure, together with what was boodled by Bigot, the intendant and his associates, that Louis XIV. is reported to have asked whether tho fortifications of Quebec were built of gold. The present walls, which replace those first erected by the royal engineers, date back to 18i3, and were carried out according to plans submitted to and approved by the Duke of Wellington at a cost of some $25,000,003.

BERMUDA’S COLORING.

The Bide R-m’.nds the Traveler of the Mediterranean at Its Best. The attention of the traveler is at first attracted by the colors o? the waters as he approaches land and in the innumerable bays and inner sounds, says Harper s Magazine. The blue reminds him of the Mediterranean, where the Mediterranean is at its best, but among the islands the blue changes to emerald as vivid as the Pope’s ring, to Tyrian purple, to a blending of purple and maroon in the shallow bays, while if he looks across any wide stretoh of it there is an iridescent appearanoe, a shimmering of shifting oolors like changeable silk, only'.the colors seem m:.ro solid, and one doubts whether they are 6ky reflections and not solid colors of tho bottom seen through the transparent water. Fop the water at a great depth is absolutely transparent On the eastern coast Sicily, below Taormina, are seen just suoh wonderful colors along the shore, just suoh sparkling blue in the suu, ana there it is associated with agotfof romance and adventure, with suggestions of treasure wrecked along the coast in the galleys of Phumician and Greek voyagers. It is here difficult to believe that these brilliant colors are not inherent in tho water, and the fanoy is quickened by some of tho fish that sport in these ha'oyon seas. One of these is tho ungol llsh, flat and oval in form, of a cerulean blue, with two long streamers edged with yellow, apparently one of tho happiest, as he is ono of the m. st graceful, of all marine inhabitants.

An Armless Nimrod.

An armless Nimrod is the wonder of the people and the envy df all the snortemen of Bucks County. He ia John Simon, of Zion Hill, and hia prowess is something marvelous. Simon’s arms were ground off above the elbows in machinery a few year* iago, but his love of hunting spurred his ingenuity, and he overcame his seeming insurmountable obstacle. He straps his single-barrel breech-loading hammerless gun to his right arm, and when he sights game he swings the piece over the stump of his left arm, takes auick aim and. fire , generally with telling effect. His mode of Loading is as unique as his shooting, lie carries the shells in his hat, and when he wants one bows low, drops his hat on the ground, pullß out the empty shell with his teeth, and in a similar manner loads, then pushing his head into his hat to recover his head. Despite his affliction, Simon has done some of the best shooting in Bucks County the past year, his record standing: sixteen op ssutib, five ohea-ants, five dozen blackbirds, thirty-seven rabbits and twonty-ono quail.—Philadelphia Record.
