Cfcarge3 in Wheat SolidiSad Skin Milk The Angora Goat Potato KaiilDC Farmers liaising Trotter -Why (iraia in Cheap Supplementary Summer Food-Household Hints ! Farm Notes. Chances in Wheat. In a report to the Department of Agriculture on the cereals of this country, by ClifTcrd Richardson, assistant chemist, the following is stated in regard to the grain of wheat: From observations in tliia and previous reports it may be said that of all grain wheat is probably the most susceptible to its environment. Oats in certain directions axe more variable, but in their general characteristics are much more permanent, as will appear in subsequent pages. The inherent tendency to change which it is found in all grains is most prominent in wheat. It may be fostered by selection and by modifying such of the conditions of environment as is in the power of man to affect. The most powerful element to contend with is the character of the season or unfavorable climatic conditions. The injury done in this way is well illustrated in Colorado, and it would seem advisable in such cases to seek seed from a source where everything had been favorable, find begin selection again. It must be borne in min Jthat selection must be kept up continuously, and that reversion tates p!ai-p more easily than improvement. It took but one season to seriously injure Professor Blount's wheats, but it will le two or more years before they have recovered from that injury. Hallett, in Englard, was able to make his celebrated pedigree wheat by selection, carried on through many years, but the same wheit grown by the ordinary farmer under unfavorable conditions for a few years without care has reverted to an ordinary sort of grain. TheeiVect of cliuute is well illustrated by four specimens of wheat which are to be teen in the collection of the chemical division. Two of these were from :roa and Takota some years ao, and present trie most extrem contract which can be found i: this variable jrran. Oue i3 l:j:ht yellow, plump and starchy, and shows on analysis a very tinall proportion of albuminoids; the other is one of the small, hard and dark-colored spring wheats of Dakota, which are rich in albuminoiJs. Between these stand two specimens ;from Colorado, which have been raised from seed similar to the Oregon and Dakota wheat. They are scarcely distinguishable, except by a slight difference in color. The Colorado climate is such as to have modified these two seed wheats, until after a few years' growth they are hardly distinguishable in the kernel. All localities having widely different climates, soils, cr other conditions, produce their p :- fuliar varieties and modify those which ari feror.pl t to them. The re?n't of these te-.-aencies to charge and reversion from lack of care in seed selection or other case has led to the pa ret ice of change of seed anion? farriers. A source is sought where, either through greater care or more favorable conditions, the variety desired has been able to ho d its own. Some times this change is rendered necessary by conditions whicn are beyond the f ower of man to modify. As an example: No. 10 of Trofessoi Blount's whe its, known as "Oregon Club," a white variety from Oregon, has been deteriorating every year since it has been grown in Colorado, wLereas, if the seed had been supplied every season directly from Oregon, the quality would probably have remained the same. The Angora Jo.it. Ccrannssioner Col man, of the United States Department of Agriculture, in answer Vo SJ. fciruruocs, Esq.. of Jit. Louis, in regard to Angora goats, writes: 'In repiy to your inquiries of the 20th irst. relative to tne Angora goat, you are informed that the spe:ies has been successfully acclimated in many of the States, a ccol, dry, mountainous region being well adapted to them. They were first introduted into Soith Carolina in lsp, into (torgiain Lv-t, and subsequently spread to the west and southwest.

The mistake generally made has been to utilize the breed only for crossing with onr native stcrfc. This has proven to be a bad method, as the valuable peculiarities of the mohair deteriorate with the smallest admixture of o'her blood; and repeated trials have proved that we must limit ourselves to preserving the fpecies in its entire purity. There is no great dilliculty in raising the pure breed where the nature of the grount and the climate conditions are suiuble. In native country extends from the Black set on the north to the plains of Mesoiipota-nia n ti e south, the Caspian sea on the eist a -id the Mediterranean on tne west. But its peculiar domain is between thirty nine degrees twenty minutes and forty decrees and th'rtir minutes north latitude, and between thir.ythree decrees twenty minutes and thirty-tio degre? east lorgitude, w here it ii prized as an eating, milking, chee?e and bntter-mik-irg ard clothes making animal.

and if the weights on the feet are properly adusted, and if the animal at the other end of the reins has got the right sort of band and won't give it away to somebody else, the horse may make a phenominal record. But this is not one of the pursuits of the farm, and any farmer or farmer's boy that links himself in any way with the business has deviated from the true and straight course that belongs to legitimate agriculture or husbandry. Solidiiieri Skim Milk. In connection with the late spring show of the Koyal Dublin Society the Koyal Agricultural Society of Ireland held a dairy conference at which a number of good papers were read and discussed, several novel suggestions making their appearance on the occasion. Mr. Gilbert Murray, treating the subject of skim milk and the difficulty of its disposal, exhibited specimens of dried skim milk, which can be manufactured at a trifling expense. This article will keep for an indefinite time, is perfectly solnable in hot water, and Mr. Murray believes that the manufacture will become popular, that the dried skim mil will be largely used both for culinary purposes and for stock-rearing, and that it can not fail to relieve the now congested milk market and revive the trade. Professor McConnell urged that Ireland, which can. produce butter second to none in the world, she meet the foreign producers by employing steam-driven butter-making ma chinery on a large scale, as is now done in the north of France and other parts of Europe, purchase fairly good butter, mix it, wasli it, and pack it in neat, tidy firkins or packages, in ten, twenty or one hundred ton lot-, oi one uniform quality, and so command a regular market. t'otato-Uaitiiis. Kaunas Farmer. ) Potatoes need a rich, loose soil, and they need cUan surface cultivation. As to seed, it is generally admitted now among those who have made experiments that whole potato s, or at least not less than halves when cut, make the best seed. If potato seed is covered lightly in good soil and then covered with straw or coarse hay for a mulchinff, in cei tain localities the crop will not only be more certain, but it will be better. The mulching prevents evaporation, which is a very important matterat the time when potatoes most teed moisture. But when the ground is plowed deep and is in Crst-class condition when the planting is done, good cultivation will go iar toward securing a good crop inordinary seasons in Kansas. This i" one of the special subjects that has rt had the attention it deserves ia Kansas. In the range of thp writer's experience and observation, in Kinsas as well as in other States, sod ground is good f r potato""?. Tiie best potatoes we ever raised in K m -is were crown in wild rra;rie sod the lirst season. The seed was dropped in every third furrow chucked under the edge of the last turned sod, so that the horses would not stop on them. The sprouts soou appeared between the edges of the sod, and they grow right along, needing no cultivation. That suggests the propriety of making sod specially for potatoes. &ow prass eeii and make a nica law, and every yepr plow up as much of it a- .nay be r.eroed lor potatoes.

The exports from the I'nited btatm and Canada frnu September 1, 1 to May 1, lkJ, were: Flour, .".12t,"7 barrels; whU 32,1'I,7,3-13 bushels; corn, 4 -',7 ').; w bushels.

This does not present a very promising outlook for our wheat this year. It is, however, to be noted that our area is not much increased. The reports fnm Kansas and some other localities indicate very poor condition of the wheat crop, and that it rtign nations have been consigning ti e mi; pi u 1 ! t over from the unprecedented tn.eral wheat crop of IsM.

Cows, especially, will be benefited by having some such food to give them each night as they come from pastuie. It should not be considered that such provision is so much extra expense. Whatever is given to the stock and is eaten by it, besides what is not in th? pasture, is s much ssved from the feed there. It also induces the cows to cme more readily to the btrn at n-gLt, if they know that a good feed of swt, juicy fodder awaits '.hem. There need be no fear that any of thW ex tra teeil will le lost, even if the pasture dos give out, for it tan all be eureil and sv?d for winter feed.

Bets are breeding up very fast now, consequently consuming larg; quantities of honey. Should lotitj-contiued cold storms occur during during this month, bees might starve unless fed. If you intend to sow beets, carrots or parsnips with a view of winter feeding of siock. the sowing should not be delayed beyond corn-planting time. Kntabagas may be sown not later than the middle of June. Coed seed properly planted starts out a vigorous, healthy plant, and sends it into a strong and rapid growth the season through, thus in a large measure insuring a good crop. It is not enough that a part of the seed be good while a pcrtion is inferior. A spe cial feature of the American fatstock show to he held in Chicago November lt 1sm', will be the "prize corn show," under the auspices of the I'rairie Farmer, an agricultural publication, which proposes to distribute :?ö77 in prizes to the raisers of the best corn in the United States. Do not forget to thoroughly clean the foi'age of all window plants before placing them out of doors for the summer. Look carefully for plant lice, mealy bugs and other minute insect Lfe. Drenching with prettv strong soapsuds, followed with a thorough rn g with clear water, is a good applii M I'lent' of water ought to be within easy flight of iiiipa y. Nothing can be better than a runni; orook, as bees delight sinpin water from damp sand and gravel. Where water ruust be supplied artificially it will save the life of many a bee if the drinking vessels are tilled in early morning with warm water. The prospect for a honey yield is favorable, 8nd hives for new colonies should be ordered early. Many a large first swarm has emigrated while their owner was driving in hot haste to procure a hive. Sections or honey bo.xes, whichever is to be used as receptacle's for surplus, should be ready to be used when needed. It is thought by some good observers that the disease curl in the leaf of peach trees is caused, or at least assisted, by the lack of soluble potash in toe soil. As proof of tlr.s, it is certain that trees unmistakably affected with curl have been quickly changed to health through the application of unbleached woodashes about the trees. If your bogs begin to cough, look out for malignant lung troubles. If they mope and lie about their beds, intestinal dilliculties may be suspected. Plenty of pure air, pure water, and varied food will scare ajvay malignant diseases. How many farmers pay proper attention to the condition of their hogs and where they are kept. Furniers who have been in the habit of drawing potato vines to their barnyards tobe worked up into mature had better omit the practice this year, especla ly in places where the potato rot has been prevalent. The rot is undoubtedly produced by a fungus growth which originates in the leaf, and carrying this to the manure heap is the most certain mode of spreading it over the farm. Breed so as to have every lamb an improvement upon the average standard of the dock, and sell, as soon as they can be made ready, all that come below such standard, is the pood advice from an unknown source. When the time comes for selling animals of any age do the selecting yourself always keep the best. They are worth more to you than anyone else, bo long as you are not overttccked. It is not a pood practice to ei ve sher-p grain early in tfie morning, uutes they sleep out of doors ana have an oppotanity to get up and stir around briskly awhile before feeding. In a Hock of sheep there will always be some that resemble certain persons destitute of appetite in the morning. If the grain ration is given cut they will not pet a fair froportion, and they will lose condition. I ;ave found that in a flock of 130 lamb ten or twelve would scarcely touch grain in the iiiortiing, but at night not one would stand Lack.

They are .tried iu preferfrce to being canned The tomatoes are tllowcd to remain on the vines until they are

quite ripe, when they are picked and pressed into bags made of coarse cloth, which allows the pulp to press through while the seeds and skins are retained. The pulp is then spread out thinly on cloth, boards or shallow dishes, and exposed to the sun to dry. When it has become ouite dry it is broken up fine or ground and put into boxes or bags and sent to market It is largely used in soaps, bat much of it is employed as we do tomatoes preserved in tins or other cans. When used it is soaked for a few hours in warm water and then cooked in the ordinary manner. The Husbandman says: "There ia a point to be noted in garden culture of potatoes a point that may be quite new to many persons who have raised potatoes extensively. It is that digging the tubers from the sides of the hills when they are half matured will not impede the growth of those that are left; in fact, there is some reason to believe that growth is stimulated. It is not profitable to dig out whole hills when getting early potatoes from the garJen, because the yield will be so light a3 to give very small return for care employed in raising. A little earth can be removed from each side of the hill, and tubers of edible size can be removed without further disturbance to the hill, and those that are left will grow so much larger because of increased support that the yield will be nearly or quite as great as if the earlier ones were not removed." The average American farmer, says the Journal of Agriculture, is not a frugal, painstaking farmer. lie looks for present results and present profits far more than he does to the future. As a consequence of this principle, which is almost universal, though more Erevalent in the West and South than in the last, the practice of farming is a sort of skinning game that consequently takes from the soil without returning an equivalent thereto. In many places the deterioration of the soil and diminished prodactiveness are visible to a most casual observer, but in others, especially where the original soil was strong, the change is so gradual as not to be readily noticed. In fact, many peonle are deceived as to this being the cae hy the fact that instead ef any diminution of crops of any kind there ia a constant increase oi production in the aggregate. It is often the case that it is desirable to fatten the ewes which raise early lambs, and sell them shortly after the lambs are sold. This may readily be done if both the lambs and ewes are well fed, so that the larub3 will grow and mature quickly and be off the ewes in a short time. Again, when the lambs are fed properly and liberally they will not make so great a drain on the ewes, which will improve even while the lambs are sucking. The ewes should be fei well both before and after lambing, so that their condition may be maintained and even improved while suckling thir lambs, and be ready to fatten rapidly as soon as their flow of milk is dried up. If the ewes are managed in this way they may be mane ready for the butcher six weeks after tl eir lambs have been to the market Wool Journal. In my opinion, says Dr. Wiley, the future of sorghum ia intimately associated wi'is this distribution.of it in small plats throughout the country. In spite of all the endeavors which nave been made, it is useless to deny that the production of sorghum on large scale and lor the purpose of making sugar has rot yet proved profitable except to the farmer who had a contract to the factory. Forghum is still pre-eminently a sirup-mak-iDg plant. The farmer who manufactures his own little crop and works his neighbor's two or three tons on the shares, is not likely tothink on the business as cne playing any considerable part in the commerce of the country. And in fact it is diliieult to make a fair estimate of the amount of these crops which are raised and consumed at borne without ever entering the great channels of trade. Yet it is safe to say that the annual production of sorghum ii'up in the United Mates is approximately 30,000,0 callons and of this Indiana produces not far from one fifteenth. This is almost one gallon for every man, wiman and child in the Sute. Dut large as this amount is, it can be greatly increased with advantage to maker and consumer and without forsaking the local mar-kcts.-Ilural World.

RUINED BY COCOAINE. The Doctor Who Caused a Scene ia a Chicago Hotel A Victim or His Owu Lxcessen. JEvaiibville, Ind., Special. J The local papers published accounts of the peculiar antics of Dr. ltansom, who, with nis daughter, created considerable excitement at the Gault House in Chicago. The description of his person and his eccentricities tallies with those of Dr. A. S. llaz-n, who until a month ago was a resident of this city. Dr. llaztn canie here a year ago, bringing a letter of introduction from a celebrated New York ocuhst, and for a time was q aite successful, but he bepan drinking heavily, and commenced using morphine. When this drug began to lose it3 effect he commenced the iibfi of cocoaine, also administering it to his daughter, and such a mania was soon produced by its Ui,e that the police were called to his residence several times by their wild frenzy. Once when the officers broke open the door of the residence they found llazen in a corner with a stethoscope pressed against the wall listening to the movement of burglar?, who, he said, were walking outside with nui tiled feet. The quantities of the drug purchased s?em incredible, but two of the hiding druggists show that during his sojourn he purchased over 2,010 gra ns cf cocaine. His practice was not such at to warrant the use of oefifth of it. lie made no secret of its appiicaticn as a remedy for maladies with wtiich he claimed to be alV.'cted. The pair made so many scenes that the police took the matter in hand, and it was developed that in 1SÖ a New York paper published Hazen's history, with his portrait, and averred that he had tied from his wife and children in Pennsylvania and taken Maggie McDonald, his niece, with him, and that she is is the girl he claims to be his daughter. At the time of tne publication of this story he admitted is truih. but gave plausible reasons for his acuk llazen and the girl's mania became so violent that after tbe last visit of the po'icp, about four weeks ago, they left the city, tleeIng from supposed assassins. They were next heard of at Dooneville, where the sams actions took place at ths hotel, and they were placed in confinement, but released the next morning after which they disappeared, oily to turn up, as believed, in Chicago. Dr. Haren is well educated, ami well versed in diseases of the eye and ear, but is of an extrtmely nervous temperament, caused by the use of both cocaine and morphine. His reputed daughter was thought by many to be weak miDded arJ easily iufiuenced by him. When he left he had about 3,000 in cash in bis j.oeseiion. Found Dead. IAVExror.T. Iowa, May 23.

TO SAYE A BROTHER.

Greerslnrg Parties Identify Henry Tetteman as the Vorderer of David Biter, A Crime for Which Henry Kennedy is Now :rvinc Ufa Sentence in Prison Ti Story of a Sister's Efforts In n , Brother'! Uehalf. Jliss Kate Kennedy, of Cincinnati, was in the city yesterday and spent a great portion of the day in tbe Federal Building waiting for the verdict in the Tetteman burglary case. Her brother, Henry Kennedy, is now serving a life sentence in the penitentiary ujon a charge of killing David Baker, of Greensburg, at a political rally addressed by General Logan at that place on the first day of November, 1SS4. The circumstances of the killing were briefly these: A gang of pickpockets were working the crowd when they were detected and several citizens attempted to arrest them. The thieves fired upon the pursuing party, hitting David IJaker, a highly respected citizen, and killing him instantly. Four of the men were arrested, and among the number was Henry Kennedy, of Cincinnati. His pals charged him with the shooting, and upon this evidence he was sentenced for life. He denied the shooting, and charged it upon another, and his sister undertook the work of detecting the real murderer, and has been engaged in this since the time of her brother's conviction. Yesterday she was partly successful, and there seems to be a feeling among the Federal Court cliicials that she has located the murderer. She reached the city in the morning from Greensburg, accompanied by two ladies and two gentlen" fn that place, and at the n"" ': 'anient they were permitted Hen ry Tetteman, who, with Ueddy Jackson, was on trial during the day for the Attica postoflice robbery. The ladies and gentlemen identified Tetteman as one of the men who was at Greensburg on the day of the shooting and Mr. Mullen was positive that be was the man who killed Baker. The value of the identification by the latter can be estimated by the fact that he was standing by Mr. Baker when the shot was fired, saw tt e man who fired ic and caught Uaker in bis arms as he fell with a bullet in his heart. All the parties were positive that Tetteman was present and Mr. Mullen saw him fire the shot. In the aftt-rnooa, an fcthdavit was filed charging Tetteman with the Baker murder, and a warrant wai p'.aced in the bauds of tue oifioer ready to tesirve 1 upon Tetteman should the Fede.-1 Court jury fail to convict him in the cas on trial. The eidenee in the case has developed the fact that Tettenran is a most desperate character; that he has been in prisou a number of times, and, though a young man, is an old offender against the law. Several respectable citizens of Attica testified to seeing Tetteman and Jackson in that neighborhood jnst preceding the burglary of the Postoilice, but quite a number of witnesses swore that they were in Dayton, 0., at the time. He and Jackson both live at Dayton and are recarded as desperate characters, especially Tetteman. A gentleman who has been here attending the trial said yesterday that there was little doubt but Tetteman killed a man named Butcher at Minneapolis some time ago, but they had not been able to fix tbe murder upon him. Miss Kennedy, the lady who has been so assiduously at werk for "two years in her brother's behalf, was seen yesterday but she seemed unwilling to say anything regarding the case. She is afraid publicity will injure her plans, though she appears confident that Tetteman is the murderer of Baker and that she will succeed in demonstrating the fact and thus lead to the release of her brother. It is said that Governor Gray has been appealed to, and that be had a long talk with Kennedy during his recent visit to the State Prison. What conclusion he anived at, if any, is unknown. Judge Woods was asked yesterday regarding the legal aspect of the case, the reporter rutting the question thus: "Suppose this jury should convict Tetteman of the Attica burglary, is there any way by which he could be surrendered to the State authorities to be tried for the crime of murder?'' The Jndge resronded promptly that he did not think there was. He said that he and . Judge Gresham had talked the matter over, and neither could recall any law for surrendering a convicted prisoner to be tried for a greater oflense "I see no way for hiai to be tried for murder," said the Judge, ''provided ho is found guilty, unless the President should pardon him for the oifen-je upon which he is convicted." The evidence in the case closed yesterday morning and the remainder of -the day wai spent in the argument, there being two speeches on either side. The case has been stubbornly contested, and has developed, among other things, the ability of two acknowledged crooks to bring to their defence, not only the talent of able lawyers, but a large array of witnesses. Indeed, the case has more of the elements of the lied Hyel trial than any ever tried in this city. The jury renred at a late hour yesterday evening and retnrned in a few moments with a verdict of guilty. The prisoner no doubt expected mch a finding, and gave no evidence whatever of disappointment. A Good Trade for Women. ILippincott's Magazine. There was a call lately for a new trad?, adapted to the complexities of the modern city house that of the universal tinker. Now, with an extension of the same idea into the woman's kingdom, a correspondent sighs for a neighborhood darner. Most of us would agree as to the convenience, but the correspondent was not, perhaps, aware that the system recommended is in practical operation in Paris. In the family where our home was wnen there, punctually one day in the week came la raccommo teuse, and, having been established in a back room and given a cup of coflee. set to work on the ruin three children and an impatient man bad wrought. She had for her rams her meals and twenty cents a day; and she had a clientele of nearly a dozen families, from whom she drew occasionally t jmething beyond the daily franc. To some she gave but half a day; but mattem were so systematized that she was rarely without work. Very convenient the American boarder found her for the ripping and cleaning of old gowns and the darning of hose which, in he devotion to.the monuments of Pari, she had no time to' touch. And watching the cheery old woman ovtr her task, she ofen thought what a relief a similar system would be to many an overtaxed American housekeeper. For that is the point it is a system and a recognized trade. This one belonged tJtht lowest class; but others, handy at lace and finer work, with a patronage of wealth, often make much more. And even a franc a day, with a goo I living thrown in, was not to be despised. Since the reign of bric-a-brac set in, we have professional dusters in the cities. It should be comparatively simple to introduce also pjofessional menders. Perhaps a dilliculty would arise as to the amount of paymerit, since the women who mend for their families do not roll in wealth, and even fifty cents a day might seem to them extravagance. And the sewing woman who drags her life out on the same sum, boarding herself, would probably scorn les?. But, once given her patrons, she might lind her lifi both easier and more healthful; and th? t;rtd l:ouv"-iiiothers, seetngthn economy and the it IM, would won. ler why they di I not do it hcfoie. I'r.iW the p-estnt system the tbiifty vNonv-n frtt and tire tliemvlys over the endless tasx; the .snli mentally philanthropic and the unthrifry givt awav, m the incjr.ite of poverty often : and tim old do's ri'T, profit by the improvidence of the bachelors w:d husbands. A little more co-operation every whue would lighten woniens' work. Here, for in

stance, in a town of 2,000 inhabitants, one woman for years made her pin money by weekly brewing of yeast for her neighbors. She has gone out of the business now, her husband objecting, and the women are left lameating the lost convenience. Yeast in plenty at the grocery patent yeast: but they all prefer the home-made when they can get it. So, could they once get it, they would prefer the neighborhood mender.

STATESMEN AT THE OPERA. Tbe Two Congressmen Who Went to See "Fra IMavolo." I Washington Critic.1 Two well-known Congressmen well known for their eminent morals and correct living Colonel X., of Kentucky, and Judge Z., of Indiana, went to Albaugn's Tuesday night to hear the Winston Opera Company do "Fra Diavolo," set down n the bills as "the charming masterwork of Auber," but Greek of the Greekiest character to our two Congressional ascetics. They had seats well down toward the danger line, and just behind them sat a Critic man intent upon the beautiful con motos, fugues, scherzos and other things scattered through a popular opera. Through the first act the two gentlemen sat with the complacent endurance of old habitues, and when the second was begun they settled down to enjoy in their feeble way the full amount of "their id vestment in seats. Ixmise Searle, pretty and plump, was playing "Zerlina," and it was observed that the Kentuckian looked at the Indianian every time she showed up. and smiled with a uort of copper-distilled smile, but in the second act, when she came out and made a lew remarks about retiring to the snowy couch back near the Hat, both gentlemen betrayed signs of alarm and moved about nervously as if anxious to get out of the wicked theater and into a safe place. 'he ain't going to bed is she, Colonel? ' asked the Judge, in evident trepidation. "Of cou'se not right heah befo' the whole house," said the Colonel, soothingly. Then they waited a minute, and she began to unlace her bodice. The Judge nudged the Colonel. "What's she doin that for?" he asked. "Ileckon it's too tight," replied the Colonel, with some curiosity. "No, it ain't. Ixok at her! She's rippin' the whole darn thing open!'' whispered the Judge, excitedly. "Dogcone if she ain't," said the Colonel; "but, of cou'se, she won't daiali to take oil anything else." "1 most sincerely hope not," replied the Judge, sighing with relief as the pretty ZcTlira ceased operations for a moment. Then she began to take off the little white jacket, and the rounded arms and soft white reck gleamed in the footlights. "Ixjok at that, Colonel! Ixok at that!" gasped the Judge. ' She's going to undress sure as chills on the Waasb ! Good gracious, what would our wives say if they were to see us here?" "For the Lawd's sake, Judge, I don't know. Maybe it won't be so bad. Let's wait a while and see, anyhow " Xerlina sang and entiled innocently, ad began to unfasten her bright red dress. The J edge was wild. "Colonel, Colonel," he whispered hoarsely, "she's going to take of the last rag. She's going to do it, sure, and here we are, church members and men of family, setting right down lookin' at the whole discraceful jerfonuance! Let's get out of this! Comeon!" "Dog-gone if she ain't," said the Colon!, and as the Jndge dragged him along the aisle the Colonel kept looking over his shoulders at the stage and the pretty Zerlina till the lobby door closed and shut the pious Legislators oft from the perilous possibilities of the wicked place. AN ANARCHIST'S STORY. Twenty Uoonibs Prepared for I'se at the Chicago Meeting, lint Only One Thrown. (Cleveland (O.) Special. A sensational tale was spun hereby William Weber. Weber formerly lived here, but is now a resident of Chicago. He is an Anarchist, and is here to collect funds for the relief of wounded riotersin Chicago. Said he: "After the trouble at McCormick's works on Monday afternoon, a special meeting of our club was called. Spies called the meeting to order, and a committee, consisting of Parsons and two others, was appointed to draw np a manifesto. This was the one headed, "Kevenee! Workingmen, to arms!" The advisability of using dynamite if the police interfered with any other meeting, was discussed, and it was decided that twenty bombs should be prepared for the next Tuesday. Five hundred ballos were distributed, twenty of which contained a skull and crossbones. I know that the twenty men received their bombs. 'To arms!' was the signal for the throwing of the bombs. The meeting was almost through, Tuesday night, when the police ordered the Anarchists to disperse, and it is presumed that the other nineteen men hail started for home, or were in j ured by the discharge or the police revolvers. w'nich immediately followed the throwing of the first bomb." President Tyler's Son. New York World.l One of the most striking figures seen in Washington is the son of ex-President Tyler. He is now an old man. He is bent with weight of years. .His long, white, patriarchal beard sweeps down from his venerable face, nearly covering his broad breast. He woiirs a soft hat, slouched well down over his deep set eyes, and is dressed generally in a careless suit of badly-cut bla-k He is rarely noticed, and walks the street to most people unknown. Y'et in his day he w as one of the great beaus of Vashingtoa. He was considered one of the handsomest men who ever graced the society of Washington. When his father was President he was the leader among the young men who went in Washington society. He was tall then, straight as an arrow, and with a mott magnificent presence, if one can judge from the glowing tales of his contemporaries. He used to wear along shaggy coat trimmed with Astrakhan fur, which was in that day a rarity. When he walked the avenue swinging his cane, twirling his brown mustache, with his fur coat thrown back, hfc was hailed as the hero of his time. Women bowed down and worshiped before him, and the number of his conquests was legion. To-day he is a poor, broken down old man who walks, insignificant and unknown, about the streets where he once reigned as a social king. Geotwk W. Cable will be the Memorial Day orator at Fittsrield.
