„ Has any'one ever-called Attention to the extraordinary blunder,-in describ- irig natural'phenomena, vyhich occured in the Ancient' .Mariner .of Coleridge.'/ At the moment of the to,mile apparition

Why Woman Suffrage la , Right and Is Round to Come. 1

I think it is a custom amqng the Yan­kee people when any new plan .is sug­gested, xispockrfly if it has been advo-

Sensible way, .which Is, to .put it to the test, lias it -occurred to you tlia-t a great many intelligent people— whether, or not you agree witli them— advocate woman -suffrage? Do you*remember that the Claim lias been advocated for

'many years? Are you aware how easyi.t would tie to settle .this question by putting.it to the tost? ; , ■»'

“ By Jove, this .must bo'what is left of*it The question of woman suffrage suf- it," Blodgett replied, gazin* critically .fora from its -very, familiarity.

Burglat-y and kindred offenses show an increase during twenty years of IM j percent, hut this is in part explained by a change in the police cluHsificatiqri i by which various offenses which used to he entered.as larcenies are now entered j' as burglaries. In nil the smaller of- ! fenses {here,has been a “ coiuiiiuous i

- and ^narked" abatement." The main , cause of tiHs improvement has been- the .action of tlie police. It. is "in the i smaller and eVery-duy in'ciiscs that the tiom fit of this— is most seen. Tlie t police are more vigilant, and their v ig i-:

- .lance is more often sticcessfui. They * are now old.gel to furnish to, the Seerc-* ■ tary o f ’state full informaMoh as to the 1.

* ‘ t'* A V ^”‘1 ftheir district, and they are thus ,kopt 1 “ in touch with all known thieves'and t Biispecti'd eiraracters." The figures re- j lating both to these eharaeters and to ! tlieir habitual haunts are h igh ly en-1 conraging. ; i

The visits of | the police make the discharge of the j Criminal calling troublesome and annoy* !, Ing. The of!» nor criminals are seen by the police when they are making holi­day the more chance ia there l ‘;.ifc tljoy will he rocognL-ed and detected when they are at work. The decrease ip the number o f receivers of stolen goods is especially Important, since without such agencies thieves can not dispose of their j plunder, and as a thief is notacollectorj the inability to do this is a very great .hindrance to bis business.

Tire former liiul tb.oso littlo ordinary latches that are drawn across undor a clip and are known (in tho professipn). as tho “ burglar’s joy.” 'Thoir flimsy -ojiaractop excited no special emotion in oar Inex-

; poricnccd and ingenious minds. Wo supposed' that they wore.like other peo­ple’s fastenings; tho same • builder had pWt up’ the entire Tbw of houses, nfl&d all 'vnu-e pcoupldd by tenants who,‘ if they had any fear of burglars,' iept-tjiose •tfcnijiu-s to thomsolves» The" back door had rather, rickety b'ol ts, itstruck us; but, •On the otiier hand, the front door—the burglar's favorite entr'anco, as overy one knows—was massively barred, - chained

' and Rouble-locked; So wo possessed our .souls in a Aonse of security, and even joked abqul-the possibility of the mid­night prowler nib-king a descent upon us. For a lipae wo.evon took our valua­bles—including q, collection- of very su­perior electroplate—up to our bedroom •every night. There was nothing like proper precaution, as my-wife sagely remarked. After awhile we got to let the cook take charge of tho “ silver.’’ This slio did satisfactorily enough until the continued absent*) of burglars lulled' her spirit into a staio of-happy obliv- iousness of tlie predatory tribe. Ru­mors of housebreaking at a distanco oc­casionally reacliM us, but tliey, affected its no more than do the obituary notices, of pooplo wc don’t know. A ll we did was* to talk vaguely .of gotting a dog. • r This was the sleep; presently camb the

■ awakening. One fatal Monday morn­ing our marital slumbers wore disturbed at seven a. ui. -bv the cook rushing into our bedreuf n, and with pallid cheeks, distended eyes and disheveled locks, crying: “Oh, m’m, there’s'boon robbers in the houso!”

ln less- tiruo than that btref • pe­riod popularly known as a ‘ ‘jiffy”- my wife and 1 reached the sceno nf tho catastiopbe. Never shall 1 - forget tho spectacle that met our gaze. The vil­lain had apparently .onfined hiu ctopro-

;dationsto the kit chon, but there ho had wrought fearful havoc. All the' doors

.of the cupboards, all tho drawers of the sideboards were wide opon, and such of their, contents qs had been loft were strewn upon the floor. On tho rug were fragments of cold rabbit, pie and cocoa- nut cake, apparently cast there out of pure superfluity of naughtiness. On tho table were the pie dlsli . and Cake plate, both empty. There ulsoBtood a glass and jug from which tho-rufllan, lgid evidently been drinking boor.. Hard by were some half-burned lucifgr ra a trims and a few shreds of tobacco, showing that ho bad linished up com- forta'fiy 'with a smoko. Both- tho kitcl.cn windows and that of the scul­lery were wide open—a fact which thrust itself upon our outer conscious­ness, for tho morning was raw and danp and \yo wero thinly clad, .■ 'Vlien wo liad’ recovered sufllciontly

to take'note of o.ur actual losses, then indeed the iron entered our souls. Wed­ding presents are not always asourco

. of unqualified pleasure to oitheixdonbrs ■or recipionts. Tho form er‘ frequently regard them as a littlo bettor than a tax levied by custom; tho latter" occasion-' ally feel that Aunt Jano-and Cousin Peter might havo done tho thing ratlior more handsotiioly while they,were about i t . But it is rastonishiug what, a won­derful affictidn ono feels for wedding presents when they have boon stolen..

As we looked for thin. g ift and that, anu found them, not, tho merit tender

, chords wore touched. I remember hav­ing thought Uncle Hniflkln’s pair of plated snuffers rather a poor gift, for ho

' is something considerable in the city. But, noYv that tho accustomed peg know them"no more, I saw" thoSo snuffers in a new-light. I thought how' undo had probably walked miles to got them—ho .was*greatly addicted to a second-hand shop in tho M.ilo End road—and a soft­ened 'sadness stole .over me, and I longed to grasp his honest hand and

. hint at his buying us another pair. My wife boro the trying ordeal of seeking and finding not bravely enough until she made one dreadful-discovery. Then she broke down, and,.flinging, herself on my breast, exclaimed through her tears: “0 dearest-, tho wretch has act­ually helped himself to some of our

_wr-e*(lding cake!” ■ •»Wo communicated immediately with

utile police, vvho^ovinced the greatest in­terest in the affair. Tho inspector called, so did* two sergeants, ho did tho constable who patrolled our boat in the day-time,, likewise tho officor who per­formed a similar duty at night. Indeed, as our fame spread abroad, policemen of varying grades from outlying dis­tricts paid us visits, looked at the prom­ises, questioned tho gardener, shook their heads mysteriously - And then thanked m« ldhdiy, and said they would have a drop of whisky and a cigar, t think the force belonging to the entire neighborhood will always recall my. burglary with pleasurable emotions.

Eventually my burglar was captured, and I had tho pleqsu.ro of a personal In­terview with him. He was a-tbldr* •fit young follow with a not unpleasing

air of melancholy about hitu. By-pro­fession he was a shoe-maker—thnt'Va to say, lie professedtto follow that calling;, but tho pair .of boots bo made fm-his solicitor (who. represented-, hijn at tho trial) were' a misfit, and were actually being touched up at the moment ho was arrested. In som i/ respects he was a man of careful and providential habits;

Ilappliy/also, for them, ’their differ­ence, of opinion Wor*> in regard to tho minor things of life, and, although it, is the “ littlo foxes that destroy the vines," their little differences did not destroy their worldly happiness, each

.of them being blessed with, abundant good naturo in spite of tho firmness of opinion that made them decline to yield

' onbvto tho other.Mrs. Gibson. Browne was a High

. Church Episcopalian, while Mr. Gibson" Browne was inclined toiYard Unitarian* ism. hut Mrs/ Browne did not become a Unitarian, nor did Gibson renounce his faith and bocomo an Episcopalian— and yet they wore happy as married folks-

U f t . Browne was decidedly opposed to all operas in which there was a bal­lot; while Mr. prowno was*fond of a ballot puroly because of tho artistic ef­fect it gavo to operatic scenes; and he

• 'went to tho.opera whenever ho felt like, doing so, and did not annoy biS..wlfo by telling her any thing about .

And when Mrs. Gibson wished to do .any thing she felt it was. perfectly prop­er for her to, even though Gibson did

. not approve of it, sho simply and quiet­ly did It, and Gibson was none the wiser. There.were times when Mr. and Mrs. Gibson Browne exemplified tho old ad*

jjgeO 's ilenco is/goldoh.’ ’One morning, "at tho breakfast table,

Mr. Browne said:“ My dear, don't forget that tho Van

"Horns give their party to-morrow night.”

“ 1 remember it,” replied Mrs.Browne, without lifting her eyes from herniate.

“ What dress bhall you wear?”“ I am not going,” replied Mrs.

Browne, calmly.“ Not going?” Mr. Ilrowno dropped

his knife and fork'in surprise.“ No. 1 am n o t” ’ f“ Why not?”“ I have my reasons, Gibson. Rest as-

- eured that they are good ones. And I'd rather you-didn’t go either.”. “ But 1 think 1 shall’go, my dear.*

'.‘I'd rather you wouldn't.”“ I don’ t see why I shouldn't go.”“ Rot the fact that I don't wish you to’

* enffleo-for "this once.”For the first time in their married

lives', Mr. and Mrs, Ilrowno engaged in a healed discussion. Mrs, Ilrowno firm­ly refused to givo her reason for re­maining at home, and as firmly insisted on Mr. Ilrowno .remaining with her. There was, in fact, a good deal of firm­ness on both sides.

Mra Browne did not, resort to tears; she nevoi* did; Mr. Browne did not rage and fume and use ungcntlomanly lan­guage; he never did—hut their voices grow'harder and colder every taomont* and ps tlyfiy rose from tho table, Mrs, Browne »:itd. decidedly;'"

“ You shall not go, Mr, Browne,” to which Mr. Browne replied, with equal decision:

‘ •Indeed* I shall go, Mrs. llrOwno.” But he wgnt down town in a more un*

comfortable frame of mind than ho had ever experienced As a married man.

Never before had bo seen such a look ql firmness, on bis wife’s face, and he knew by this time that Mrs. Br-awne) *ds a v e r y determined woman. But ho was doggedly determined to resist her oppo­sition. Ho would go to tbe'.party. >•

“ 1 guoss sbo’ll hardly bide myitreas f.uit,n'bo said. “ But banged if 1 feel like putting it on ' and Siarcbing oft bo* tore her vory eyes. I’m afraid there’ll bo trouble if Ido. But I shall go all the same If 1—I know what I’ll dpi 7 es, sir, I’ll do it. Wo'll have a big laugh over it aftorward, although it wouldn’t bd much of a laughing matter if Mrs, Browne know I intended doing it, , But I ’ll do it,'sure as guns!"

And when Mr. Browno went horns to tea the next- evening there was tucked away in his vest-'pocket a little phial^ containing a colorless liquid ho had just, purchased at the druggist's.. .,

.‘ •She often puts a uVop of this in a glass of milk “ or of waiter and takes it

‘ “ But hanged' if,I don’ t feel moan over it,” said1 Browne, as he sat in his big easy chair looking at her and picking his, tooth with, tho gold and poarl tooth- pick she had given him only thrc6" days before. ■ - ■ ;

AMERICA’S EMERY MINE.How the Valuable Ore la Prepared For tho .

M arkets o f th e W orld ,The quaint littlo town of Chester,

Mass., nestled arafeng the Berkshire bills, claims the only emery mine in tho Uni tod States, It hardly sooms crodi; bio that -boven hundred feet within the heart of tho fair green hills men Wore blasting and picking at the oro. which

-supplies this Country and otbor^parts of tho -world with emery. The company interested calls itself tho “ Hampden Emory «&; Corundum. Company,” and has invested a largo amount of capital,.; which is yielding tin* Members a .fort­une. When 'this.in no was opened, fif­teen years ago, it-Was to. procure Iron,; and the prosen.co of. emery was not sus­pected. ’ This .venture did - not prove

.profitable to tho owners, and as an ex­periment a specimen, of tho ore was sent ', to Boston to, a mineralogist, who anal­yzed it and discovered a large proportion of emery. _ They then sold out to the present company, who have taken out iminenso quantitos o f ore and milled it For inirket. The mills are" also situated:

>at Chester. The process is interesting, i The oi'o-is talcon from the mine in pieces about six inches-in diameter. It i1s»thon put into what are 'called crushers, two l.-ijrgo stones- worked by machinery,- which cbmo-together with such force:, that tb.o' oro -Is broken and falls down into a receiver. .Three grades of crush­ers'are .used, one after-the other, until the ore" is ’reduced' '.to "i-a coarse sand. Then it is" put between" rollers and .powdered as fine as meal.-. Th.o next process is the washing, which is done in a sort of centrifugal iWay wjuch keeps tho mixture of j}6wder_a'nd water in constant’ motion* /1’ho refuse and dirt rises fh tho top, while tho pow-

._der sinks. This process ’ gods on 'for twelve hours. It Is then taken.out h.y shovelfuls "TTko heaps of black .mud.. This substance is put into drying pans, which are arranged oyer steam pines, and thoroughly dried. The next pro­cess is that of sifting, ancLtho powder is put Into slovos of different sized mesh made of a peculiar and, -qxpensivo sort of silk! . They are made on an incline,- and kept'in constant motion by machin­ery,. All'along the long room under the siovos are seen tiny streams «f powder dropping into kegs, each stream ot differentqua.lity. T h s brings-it to the last process, that of separating.the iron from the emery. This is accomplished by means of a magnet charged by a dynamo. After the.sifting tho powder is run into, a sort of cylinder and from that it falls through a shaft, and as it falls it is a curio.us sight to watch the even flow of powder, just so far and then seh it divido—tlm emery, flowing on in a straight line, while tho iron siifrotf) off .toward tho-magnet and is received iii a vessel by itself. Nothing is lost, as tho iron is used largely in the manufacture of .paints.—Boston Tran­script. ______ j*

; But all the While, above the notes of al^the other birds, breaking the half-" silence when the rast are still, sounds w.thout pause the cuckoo's cry. And now the' Bound comes nearer, drift.ng through the green n?Ist of trees far up the valley, though the bird isntill un­seen. Now ho comes in view, flying fast across the -orchard. Now ho sails overhead, not noticing tho figure in tho iloor-way. As ho floats over to the great elm close by his voico rises to a pbrfeot shout He settles In the elm, and calls and calls in loud, "clear tones, bowing each timo, drooping his wings and tall, and varying now and then his more familiar speech by a muttered scrap from Some outlandish tongue. There is already in his Voice a suspicion of the “ altered tune,” which all too quickly will be followed by tbe silence that so complotcSy removes liljn from tho com* mon ken. There are many places still where It is believed that the cuckoo changcainto a hawk in tho winter. A Cornish myth relates with all gravity that a cuckoo which had retired to the shelter of a hollow log was roused from' Its winter sleep when tho wood was thrown upon the fire and astonished theeompany sitting round tho hearth by the sudden utU ranee of Its cry. Many things are considered to depend on tho’circumatances under which the note of thifj.bird is heard for tho first time. Tho Westphalian peasant, for example, rolls over in the grass, that he may be saved from rheumatism for the remainder of the, year.- To hear it Aral when you" are fasting is considered in many countries as a sign of evil luck. Very widely spread is the'lmlief th'al ii you have silver in your purse pt the auspicious moment you will nov.o,r. want for money all the „year, Strangest of all, perhaps is the idea o f ’one of the* oldest writers upon natural history. “ There is another wonderful thing about the cuckoo,’ ’ says Pliny, *ln' whatever place a man is standing when ho hears it first, if a lino bo drawn round his right foot and the mark thuf mado dog tip, no fleas are born where this is scattered."—London Daily News.

One of tho llrmidifiH of W'oute of tho Afjrlv outturn! Dcpiirtuiiniit*

A correspondent of -the St, Loti is Globe-Democrat, writing from Washing­ton and detailing the work of the Agri­cultural Department in sending out seeds, says; All the seeds nro tested before being, sent out, and tho way in which it Is done is very curious indeed. Shallow tin pans half full of water aro employed, and across these, parallel, aro laid thipk wires In pairs. Each two wiros have a strip of muBlin sewn bo- tween tbem, so that, when they are laid together across the pan, a foJd two inches deop.lmngs Into tho water.- In this fold nil along from one,side o f the pan to tho.-other soods aro" put, and the water, rising by capillary attraction, soaks tho muslin and causes the .seeds to germinate. The forming roots poke their way In every direction through tho muslin, and the plants grow famous­ly. Ono tin pan two feet long will hold a wonderful number of spfoutB, and it is a simple matter to" count and find out wbat percentage of those put in germi­nate, one fold of muslin being devoted to each kind of seeds.. ‘ Any seeds that

I do not "prove entirely satisfactory aro sent to the gardener "of tho department,

i to bo tried in earth. Thus Uncle ; Sam ^s able to 'guarantee all . tho seeds he distributes, th e tin-pan idea is a new one. . Tho tin ptns aro at- ! tended to altogether by a pretty en- i thuslast in petticoats, who thinks it great fun to have a whole botanical garden within half a dozen square feet of room. She does tho xpole business on a window ledge, and simply in the | water that way-.sho has grown beans,big j enough toraat. And sho ate them. 'Jt’r y } it for yourself. Use a good-sized t ’n ! pan from the kitejmn and fix wires and ; muslin in the way described. Write tc tho department for the seeds you want arid you aro all ready lo go into lm.,i* ness. Own your own kitchen garden; every city family fihould have one on ! the window ledge. Flowers will do as well. „ 4___ • < ... j

Two-thirds o f the 8100,0)0 worth of seeds go to Congress, each member o i , which gets about 5.000 envoi opes of then: yearly. Usually the department sends

A MTTI.E saving of tho pastures now often means much more feed in the sum taor.

Pigs should never bo fed so much at. one' feed as hot to be hungry whbn the next comes.*6 . ,

Tr.EE planting ne’ed not be done too early; ratbot wait and have, tho soil warm and dry. -

A siiXTUl'.e of one-third each of corn, oats and barley makes a good ration-,oL grain for tie work teams; a little hay Or rough nets should be added.

DUST FOR POULTRY;I** Value * Na<llum tor Freeing Fowls

from Lice,When,I first commenced on tho farm

on.my own account I built a small poul­try house of logs. Not having much capital or much experience in the poul­try business, I thought that if I could have a place for the poultry to roost at night out of the storm, and plenty of corn for feed they would do well enough," andTTcould save time and money by getting along thus. It would have boon bettor to let the poultry roost in the trees. I find that ono of the greatest ovils to contqnd with in .poultry business is parasitCs.. I believe that the cholera, so prevalent among our fowls,, is caused chiefly by parasites, The body louse gives them no rest by day and,"the spider louse, that hides in their roosts, comes out to tormont them b y ' night, and to finish their purga­tory,., the scaly leg attacks them, and finally the cholera comes along aS. ■» speedy relief from." all. their-troubles.' This is some of the experience, that I have 'had ' with poultry.. I tried 'a ll remedies advertised, , but road dust, with my small, cheap roost, I couldn’ t try. I grossed '.with ■ lard, with lamp oil, mixed .the two and greased—greased big and little—greased, groased; greased, and Anally my wife became- desperate aijd greased a couple o f dozen yoiing-,’ Ster so thoroughly that tho next morn­ing she foundhoth lice and chickens dead. , , ' - -

Then we tried the sulphur cure. Wo mixed sulphur with their food, accord-, ing tp_dlrections; sprinkletLoul^hur in their nests, dtc. The dbnsequence was ' (the weather hepame cold) they caught cold, got tho croup, and the lice died, and so did tho chickens. "'Then- I built a larger; and bettor'houso, thinking that filth was the trouble.- I wanted ono large enough.Bp I could keep it clean, and wljltowash occasionally. B u t , I didn’t get it.large enough for ,the one most essential thing—road dust—and wo continued to grease, occasionally and t]Uo lice continued with us, and tho cholera came along each spring and re­lieved the chickens of their’ misery and US o f our chickens and our profits. But, practice makes perfect, and I concluded to build another poultry house. I made dup allowance for dust enough to~ do them the- year round. Now on Tcold days when tho-chiokens are confined in fflheir quarters, you can. hear a regular pandomonium - of crows, cackles and singing from tho poultry .house, „and if you tako pains to look in you will find them wallowing in the dust to> thoir hearts’ content, and the house ho full of flying dust that it is impossible for' a parasite to enjoy life. Since wo have made theso arrangements tho lice, the scaiy leg and tho cholera have disap­peared. -. Wo havo no need o f feeding sulphur and so the roup doesn’t. bo£lior us any more., In fact, things are so sat-' isfactory that I am thinking of building another poultry house and adding an­other poultry house adding another hundred chickens to tffN?anltal stock of our farm,—S. M.- Harmrdl^in Ohio Farmer. • •

Now lift the burdock by tho hand from its place, and the work for that burdock Is done. This 'instrument and process /severs the roots below the crown, and it will not sprout again; but if the root ia severed above the crown (or fclick root) tho plant will throw up,now shoots or suckers and go to seed the same year. 1 find that if cut in the'flrst tnothod no salt is no-ded. As tho bur­dock plant Is * biennial; and as the seed germinates the spring after growth, two years of clean work in removing tho plants w ill thoroughly .craJlcato them.
