Corn Opens Firm and Soon Becomss Strong. the Other LJnes Influenced by the Leaders. IlfPTAAPOLIS, IST., I Mo-day Eveni.xo, April 13. f Berry cc Co.'a Chicago advices concerning the grain market comment as follows: "Foreign cables, foroitrn news, foreign prices ruled our wheat market today. The principle strength was noticed at Pari, where flour i3 said to have advanced in value equivalent to about three cents per bushel on wheat. English markets are rm. but do not show any such ndvanco us this. Our visible eupply etatement phowssome 140,000 decrease in wheat, a Act not obtainable until near the clcae, the previous tizuring being abont a scratch. The close finds wheat at high point for the day, with many apprehensive bears lookinz for mora advance tomorrow. There is considerable disposition on the part cf some of our best traders to take their profits and which may result in easing, the market. The glorious weather we tre having should have a weakening effect, but the May option seems to be very hard to sett'e up except when shorts bid up. This is noticeable irt corn and oats, the ecarcity of grain in 6tore being a bullish feature. It looks as if the holders of May corn bad things well in hand. Chicago has been fighting tho advance in corn a.l "winter and now the wind up of the May option finds them ttill fighting with wry little corn to Lack them. Provisions were pteady and firm in sympathy with other articles. Some cf oir successful speculators are selling out May pork and buying ribs." Locally there was an active milling demand for wheat at the quotations, corn being strong and higher, white corn being in spec ial demand. Oats were held firm. .Receipt? for the past twenty-four hours, 21 cars, atainst a total of 7 cars for ifaiurdav Wheat Stronger; No. 2 red.

dealing in futures la the Chicago wheat market. The weather on this continent was all that could be desired for the fall sown wheat, although a recurrent- of colder weather in some sections of the northwest wa reported to be still further delaying the seeding of the spring wheat. Cables came stronger and the winter's damage to the European cropa is harlng its erieet on those market. The French farmers, with the lots of 1'ieir crop ttsriog them in the fare, are evidently disputed to keep what they still hare of the previous crop, and are compelling the milieu to fill the void so caused ly importation!! from this and other couutries. May wheat opened at ahout ;(o over Saturday's closing quotation, wh le July made a jump of ?4c. May sold irom $l.l.'47a to fl.05 when trad, iug commence J aud July at Irom $1.03$ to $1.C3?4. The July future lost some of itsinitial strength at cdp and touched fl.d.l for a moment shortly after the opening, but May was held above .1J5 aud advauced later to J1.05K; July also received an accession of strung ill and when tt e former sol i at the price last nttued it touched f 1.0 1. Ciood takings at drsirsble rates wi-re reported at primary points and there were rather tree export clearances at ew Orleans. This of course strengthened the market oat. May wheat which had sold es hizh as $1.0r?if'.jl.O5.T.4 cloned at 1.03; and July soli as b;gU as 1.04,' and closed at '1 he corn market opened firm, soon became firmer and later wus very Etrong. The c'osing pnee is at an advance on Saturday's latest quotations of l,'2'c for the May delivery and l?,c for July, thee figures I eing cents below the top prices cf the lay. The strength ia the demand for cash corn to go to store was largely resDOnsib for the good buying of futures by the slior.a. No. 2 in the csh market fo'd as high as 71 cents. Hutchinson bought freely of July. Eiverpool was quoted strong and lo higher. Oats alio attracted mora attention than usual, aud were lairly active, acquiring considerable strength through sympathy with the other markets. The ninrktt closed firm, with May ?Ho higher and July lc. The heavy advance noticeable in the latter future was caused by the shorts, who forced the price. The opening of the provision market was rather tame and at the lowest prices for pork and lard, but ribs met with a fair inquiry and in the end a good demand sprung up for the other speculative rriicles alio, resultiag in considerable advances beitg established over Saturday's quotations.

It will answer apecific questions in regard thereto, but cannot again print all its provisions; tho now assessment law is now in force. Hkadf.r, Winchester, Ind.: The tax law docs not prescribe the qualifications of deputy assessors. The constitution prohibits a justice of tho peace from holding another ollice of prolit and trust. The question whether a justice of the peare can act ns deputy assessor and receive $2 per day has not Vet been decided. John Pishixgek, Graham. Ind.: The tax bill was prepared by Senator Howard of St. Joseph and Representative Oppenheira of Allen, both democrats. It passed both houses without opposition. Of the forty-two farmers in the legislature forty voted for the bill. About twenty-6even members belonged to the F. M. H. A. and alliance, but being elected an republicans or democrats they acted with their party.

Institution of Inq-ilry Against Walter 1. Pajne of Fostnria, O. The court marlial of Walter I. Payne by the Sons of Veterans for the embezzlement of S2.S00 during his term as commander-in-chief of that organization was begun Friday at Lorraine hall. This is the second trial of Mr. Payne, an appeal having been granted by the national encampment from the decision of the first conrt martial, which sentenced . him to dishonorable discharge. The proceedings aro conducted with great secrecy and even when the court reaches a decision it can only be made public by Commander-in-Chief L. J. Weob of lopeka, Has., to wtiom it must be immediately forwarded. If the trial results in acquitftal, the commander-in-chief will have nothing; to do but make the decision public; but if a verdict of guilty is reached, it will bo necesaory for him "to review the entire evidence, which will probably require eome time. The court yesterday was organized, and last night tho examination of witnesses begun. Urn Cotohad II. in. IPuoltd . CoL BlufT "You might as well acknowledge that you stole the chickens, uncle.

IMPORTANT RESULTS ARRIVED AT. Experiments 31 ad at Pordn TJnlTraltj Agricultural Station Sogar Beets Potateas Veietablea Fi'ry Varieties mt Corn Tested Illnts to ttaa Farmer, Pulleton 34 of Purdue university agricultural experiment station contains information of importance upon sugar beets, vegetables, fruit, and field experiments with commercial fertilizers and manures on barley and oats. The following are some of the points of importance as given in the bulletin: It is very probable that beets, containing a high percentage ot eugar, can be profitably grown in all the counties north of Hamilton. White sugar, imperial sugar, Vilmorin's improved w hite eugar beet are each most excellent varieties. lieets should be planted in rows eighteen inches apart or less, in moderately sandy loam that has been some years in cultivation. The foil for beets should be plowed from twelve to fifteen inches deep, rtnd as much as tho beet root grown beneath the surface as possible. Ordinary frosts do not injure beets, and the beet should be allowed to ripen in the soil during October. On oats and barley, commercial fertilizers, with the exception of sulphate of ammonia, generally produced larger proportion of grain than did stable manure, though the cost of the commercial manure was greatct-t. Owing to a greater commercial value, and a longer period of grow th, it will generally be more profitable to ferlilizo wheat or corn than oats. Grain lodged moft in those plats which received commercial fertilizers, especially where full applications w ere made. Previous experiments have shown the effect of stable manure to be more lasting than commercial fertilizers. L'srly albino, early king, early oxford and earlv sunrise potatoes are among the best early varieties for this region. Of late varieties of potat-ies badger Btate, brreze, California roe, Dakota red, gold flake, Lafayette, new giant, No. I'.O 'O, white elephant and white rose are especially recommended for this locality. Increase in yield of tho potato crop was greatest where whole tubers w ere planted, and decreased as the number of eyes or 6ize of cuttings diminished. Potatoes with the sprouts removed jrave greater yields than potatoes grown from sprouts only. The following fifteen varieties of sweet corn will give probable satisfaction if given proper care: Hleik Mexican, Concord, Cropbj-, Fight Rowed, Genesee. Henderson. Hirkox, Honey, Lnndretlt (early), Livingston's Everjjrecn, Marhlehead, No Plus Ultra, Nonpareil, Orange nnd btowcll. The following peas are desirable for family use, to bo planted in succession: Advancer, O'ltourke, Kentish Invicta, Abundance, Dwarf Sugar, Telephone Stratagem, Golden Vine and Champion. SWE&T CORN. A Test of Fifty Variolic Matte at Purdue University. Fifty varieties of sweet corn were obtained from different sources and planted April 2J, on soil which had previously been planted to potatoes. All were given, as nearly as possible the 6amo treatment. The tabla below shows'" the per cents which germinated, when each variety was ready for the table, the quality and comparative rank as to yield (10 being the highest). It will be f-etn that an attempt has been mado to remove some of tho superfluous appendages attached to some of the names, where it could be done without destroying the entire name, in order to make them conform more closely to the rules adopted by the committee of experiment station horticulturists, which btate that "tho name of a variety should consist of a single word, or at most, of two words." A phrase, descriptive or otherwise, is never allowable, as. "Pride ot Italy," "Karliestof All." The necessity for this revision of names is particularly noticeable in the liiit of garden seeds, as found in the various catalogues; and it is to be hoped some action will be taken in the near future looking to the revision of the entire catalogue of earden vegetables. The following is the tabie of tests referred to above :

During the season of 1888, even varieties of sugar beet were raided by the horticultural departmeut of this station. The samples intended for chemical analysis were very much wilted when received in the laboratory. The results showed a large amount of sugar present, but on account of the condition of the beets, the numbers were not considered especially reliable. Samples of two varieties were obtained in freeh condition and gave 12.9 per cent, sugar for excelsior sugar beet, and 11.3 for French white sugar beet. Only two beets of each variety were obChildren Cryfor

tained, and I do not attach much weight to the determinations. The temperature for the three summer months was 72.5, while the rainfall was excessive in July, but very much below the average for June, August and September. During the season of 1SS!) five varieties were ra.aed. The results appear in the following table: A'rra'tvt JVrc?te li?J per VARISTT OF BSKT, (J litrtt in Aar in Arre loundt. Et't. Ton.

The yields per acre are about one-half what the land will give, as the beets were planted in rows threw feet apart. The beets were also of the most favorable size. Hints to the Farmer. An open 6hed will be found beneficial at all seasons of the year. Foot rot in sheep can be partially prevented by keeping the sheep away from wet pastures, but the rot also attacks eheep on dry locations. The extremely wet season will have the effect of calling the attent;on of farmers whose farms are wet to the necessity of draining with tile. Try a soiling crop of soma kind. It will be found of great assistance in feedine cattle and hojs. Peas and oats mzko an excellent crop for an early supply. Land that has produced a crop has lost a portion of its fertility. This fertility must not only be restored in some manner, but the soil should be made richer than before. o matter how well fed the stock may be, the greatest g9in is secured when the food is varied. A mess of green food may contain but iittle nutrition, but it may promote the appetite' and induce an animal to consume more food. It is not the largest farms that pay. A farm of any size can be mads to pay a profit if the management is correct. When certain crops do not give a profit try 6ome other. The demands of the market should be considered as much as possible. The value of the vegetables purchased by farmers everv year is enormous. Trains leaving Philadelphia daily with loads of vegetables in season for the farmers along the linos of the raiiroads, many of them giving the cultivation of a garden no consideratfon. Whiie tome farmers spread all their manure on ten acres, in order to prow a crop of corn, and bestow the labor on a large area, others may perform their work on a single acre of celery, cabbage or small fruit, aixl realize a larger profit than those who cultivate ten times as much land. All young animals should be pushed from thi fct.irt Wliin n r 1 f mnl-pa rnni.I

The weak and puny young animal aiwavs ia more expensive than the others. Many of the cany drawbacks are due to a failure to properly caie for tho young stock the first lew weeks. When a cow is turned out on a bare field to pick up her food, ehe not only travels over a great distance of ground during the day and secures but a portion of that which she should have, but she also drop her manure where it is wasted. Nothing is saved by compelling the cow to depend on herself. A saving of food in one direction causes a loss in some other way. Every farmer is familiar with the use of the plow; but there are many kinds of plows, each adapted to some farms better than to others, and it is important to select the right make. There is no best plow for all kinds of work, as level lands, hill lands, light and heavy soils ad require certain tdows best adapted for the work required to be done, and also for the crop that is to be planted. K-cipes. Chocolate and Marble Cake. Make silver cake. Mix chocolate with one-third of the batter, and proceed as usual in this cake. Currant Cake Made like silver cake with the addition of Zante currants and the whole of two eirgs, instead of the whites of threo. Lemon flavor. Citron Cake Made like silver cake. Add sliced citron and ilavor with almond. 1'lavor the frostin? with either lemon or vanilla when almond i used in cake. Cocoanut Cake. Make silver cake. Ptir in desiccated cocoanut to taste, onehalf to two-thirds of a cupful is usually desirable. After frosting sprinkle cocoanut over the ton. Of course, fresh cocoanut is to be preferred, but cannot always be obtained. Chocolato Ribbon Cake. Make silver cake, with middle layer darkened with chocolato instead of spice vanilla; use chocolate filling or jelly, as preferred. Watermelon Cake Made like silver cake. Take out one-third of the batter. Add about two tablespoonfuls of red sugar to this. Put layer of white in tin, add the red. Lay evenly upon the red one-half or two-thirds of a cupful of raisins for watermelon seeds. Kanidly cover with the remainder of the white. Frost with red, either mixing the sugar into the frosting or Fpnnkling upon it before drying. Vanilla flavoring. Foundation (or silver) Cake. One cupful of powdered eugar, one-third of a cupful of butter, three eg's (whites only;, and be sure ihey are fresh ; one-half of a cupful of milk, one even cupful of flour (silted), one teaspoonful of baking powder (even) ; flavor to taste. Now the success of this cake depends entirely on how it is put together and boke d. If the following directions are closed y obeyed, failure can hardly come, to, first of all, see that you have a medium oven and do n'jt let it "get hot throuehout. Then butter your tin. The quantitv given makes one card. Then place ail the ingredients together on the table, for, after a certain point the work must be done rapidly. Rub sugar and butter together until the mixture curls up after the spoon. Do not make the mistake of ning instead of powdered, the confectioner's sugar, for disastrous results follow. And granulated do s not make so fine a grain. 15eat the whites toastiflfroth with an egg-beater. And then comes one great secret of the "fine light," that almost invaribly is an attritute of this cake, ami "that is this :" After addine the whiles to the butter and sugar, beat all three together with the beater until the mass is one white foam, then toss in the sifted flour, milk, baking-poweer and flavor. As rapidly as possible beat all together for a moment after they arc well mixed ; then pour into the pan and set in the oven without de'ay. The rule for "slamming the oven door" holds good in this case. If the oven is "medium," as prescribed, you need rot even look at your cake until you are pretty sure it is clone. Taken as it is given above it is plain and delicate enough for a child or a dyspeptic. With its "variations" it suits the most epicurean tvste. Any housekeeper can add to them ad libitum. Progress. Tt is very important In this age of vast material progress that a remedy be pleasing to the taste and to the eye, easily taken, acceptable to the stomach and healthy inj its nature and effects. Possessing these qualities, Syrup of Figs is the one perfect laxative and most gentle diuretic Itnown. Pitcher's Cactorlc

WILLIAM WALLACE DEADSketch of tba History or lodlaaapwlls' Fet master Fnneral Arrangements. . Postmaster Wallace died Thursday morning at 9 o'clock of a complication of maladies in which organic disease of the heart was most potent. He had been ill for some three weeks, although for the past year he has been far from well. On Easter Sunday he grew very weak and at 10 o'clock in the morninsr his life was d spaired of, but he rallied from that and subsequent sinking spells. Wednesday he became unconscious and remained to until be pa.sscd away. At his bedaide were Mrs. Wallace and his daughters, Mrs. John Duncan and Mrs. Wildam Hughe, his sons, David Wallace, jr., and William Wallace, and his brothers, Gen. Lew Wallace and Iavid Wal ace, and Lis son-in-law, John Duncan. William Wallace was born at Brookville, Ind., Oct. 16, lS2."and removed with his father, David Wallace to this city in lS;i, when the latter was elected governor of Indiana. William, his father's eldest son attended school at the old s minary and later studied law, acquiring & proficient knowledge of the profession and in ls."4 formed a legal partnership with Uenjamin Hiirrion, who had just graduated from Miami university. This copartnership continued und?r the firm name of Wallace fc Harrison until the outbreak of the civil war, when lJcnjainin Harrison crganized the Seventeenth regiment, Indiana volunteers. Mr. Wallace had just been elected county clerk at the time and at the solicitation of iovcrnor Morton, ho did not enlist, but remained at home to loo it after the duties of his ollice. la IK.!, however, he went to the front for a few months and was in the field with the leuions from Indiana. His term of office as county c erk expired in lS(i., and Mr. Wallace returned to his law practice, taking, however, n active part in politic. He was treasurer of the state republican central committee for many years and did active work in eeveral presidential campaigns. lr. the spring of lVi when the banking firm ot Fletcher A: sharpe CiOsed its doors, he was appointed receiver of the conenra and managed its Htl'airs very creditably, disposing of the property in a businesslike manner. Shortly alter the inauguration of President Harrison, Mr. Wallace wns appointed postmaster of this city and continued an able administration f his trust up to a few weeks before his death. He was promineatlv connected with the Central Christian church, of which he had been a memher over fony years and was a director in the Crown Uiil cemetery association. Mr. Wallace was married firt to a daughter of the late Ovid IlutW-r, und his second wife who survives him is a daughter of the Rev. Love H. Jameeon. He leaves eight children, Lewis, of New York City; Ovid, of San Antonio. Tex.; William, of St. Paul, Minn.; Mrs. John S. Iuneau and Mrs. William lluches of this city, and Mrs. Louis Haughey, of Chicago, all children Uy the first wife: David and Helen by ths second. The deceased wa4 a brother to (ien. Jew Wallace, and a halt brother to Pavid Vall:i-, who hai bad charge of the money order department of the postoflice for two vears past. THE NEW SLAVERY.

Fraed from On Sifd m to Pntrr Upon Another. To the Kditor Sir: The war is over. Jeff Datis is dead.' The frightful phantom of the rebel debt no longer haunts the fearful day dreams of supremely "loil" men. The bloody shirt, bleached and tattered and torn by the w inds and storms of nearly three decades, flaps idly on the party lines, a harmless reminder of dissensions healed. The sable shade of Liza Pinkston no longer stalks in somber pall acroBS the southern sky. The turtle dove of brotherly love is cooing in palmetto grove and pine tree glade. The olive branch of peace is waving from lakes to gulf. From all the hard-fought fields, once red with blood by brothers t-hed, glisten and gleam enduring monuments to the heroic dead. Monolith and statue, in park Hnd square, North and South, enshrine the fame of leaders great, whose bronzed lips whisper to the leaves: "Peace, peace." Thj veteran, grizzled and gray, "shoulders his crutch and fichts his battles o'er ajaiu," before an audience born and grown to maturity since the last echo of hostile strife sank into eternal silence. The shackles of herfdom have fallen from adown-trodden rare, and the slave of vom now wears a sovereign's crown. The land teems with plenty and the coming harvest will increase our store, while vine and fi tree, flock and herd, yield prodigal returns. A plea?ing picture.

Count LeTvenhaupt, who recently married Miss Bayard, died this morning. The marriage of Count Lewe nhaupt to Miss LTlen, youngest daughter of ex-Secretary of Cftate Thomas F. Bayard, took place at noon on April 'J, little more than a week ago, at the E.iyard homestead, "Pelamore place," in 'Wilmington. Count Lewenhaupt was a mem her of a noble family of fcfweden, but having hoen lo make his home in the United States, pre-" ferred to be considered as a private individual, and it is said requested his friends to drop his title when addres.iii him. Ho was a very popular man in society circles, and his marriape with Mis s liayard was considered an extremely happy one. The count died f nddenly 'at his borne, 1017 Adanis-st... in this city, shortly alter (J o'clock this morning. llis illness was short, and no one outside of his immediate family was aware that his life was in peril until tne sad news of his death was announced. Dr. Bullock, the physician in attendance, states that Count Lewenhaupt had been indisposed for the past two or three weeks, lie was not, however, seriously sick until Fridav, when Ir. Bullock waaeummoned. The physician found his patient f uttering from a malignant attack of typhoid lever, and the dread malady resisted every effort to etay its ravac Directly after the wc -Ming breakfast the Count and Countess lewenhaupt went to their home, where he, early this morning, passel peacefully to his death. It was their intention to remain here until May 1, when they were to have left for a European trip of about four months. The count had looted forward with preat pride to presenting Lis fair American bride to his family and to his sovereign at Stockholm. The date of the funeral has not been decided upon, but interment will be mado in the Riyard family vr.ult in Old Swedes episcopal churchyard. The count was in the thirty-first year of his ace, while the countess is aged twentyone years Talk Tart ft. j the Kditor -Sir: Let the democracy talk tariff, disseminate tariff literature of the various kinds, and above all in Indiana give the people The Daily and Weekly Sextixfi- Keep up the tariff organizations; lay aside all bitterness and reason with the people; prove your arguments, and the victory will come in God's own pood time. The American peop'e, the merchant, farmer, mechanic and professi nal man, know there ia something wronjr, and all great reformations are not born in a day.
