mm wo ieei impelled to allude to it
frequently. Wo say allowed, because it
cannot get a foothold whero a farm is
free from it, except that it has permis
sion to do so from the occupier of tho
land. It usually visits him in purchased
seeds, or it may steal over his lines from
the lands of a careless neighbor; but in
either event it is easy to dispatch it if it is
taken in time, and tho farmer who neg
Iects to take it iu timo and to destroy it
root and branch, is disqualified to bo a
tiller of the soil, and besides commits nn
offenso against tho law and tho commun

There may bo many a one who has a
liuld of rye which ho may not particular

tho following letter of a correspondent
oi mo j-rucacui vurmi' wil bo found
interesting, huoh uses of rye as ho
mentions aro quite common iu Penn
sylvania. "I notico iu Waldo's Farm
Papers, he speaks of tho valuo of rye as
green manure, and I wish to givo my
experience in tho matter. My father has
pioweu unuer rye ior tlio last tlueo years
and thinks it a cheap nnd valunblo for
tiliiwr. Two years ago we turned a pieco
of heavy rvo that was as high as tho
horses' backs, and when wo broke this
laud tho next spring, wo found tho soil
full of the decayed ryo and very mellow.
This spring wo havo turned under eight
norcH, and my oxperienco is that tho land
plowed all tho easier for having tho rye
on it. We used a common plow with a
chain to turn it under, and had no diffi
culty, nnd after it was plowed ecarcely a
head was Visible. Wo sow ono busVl
of ueed to the ncie, any timo in tho fall let
uiier wu nig potatoes or cut up our corn,
nud havo never failed to get a good
Htand. The cost of putting it in is small,
nnd seed can usually bo had for liftv
ccntH n bushel.'
Nearly Hanged.
Last night a sad-looking drummer nr
rived in tho city, llo had just mado a
tour oi sovcrai ot tlio northwestern coun
ties, and, as ho expressed it, had enough
oxperienco iu ono house toward the
"shank of his trip to servo for years of
adventurous reminiscence. "Several
days ago," said tho drummer to a parly
oi ucqnnimcunucfM last nigiit at mo
Capital Hotel, "I was riding along
through tho woods, wet, weary aild
hungry. I had hired a horse nt a farm
house, and was accompanied by a color
cd boy on another horse, who was sent
.to tnko my liorso back when I reached
the railroad, Well.as I was riding along
through a country whero tho road was a
inero path, and where, the woods were so
tiiicK mat they reminded moot A porpct
jial evening, I was suddenly confronted
uy two men, wiip, with leveled guns
toid mo to hold up my Hands. 1 would
iikc to navo nau an explanation, but my
hands went up. Several other men ad
vanced, and two of them searched me.
They found a borrowed revolver and a
watch. They did not tako tho watch,
but relieved mo of the pistol."
'"What's tho nigger doing for you'll
one of them asked, f replied that ho hail
been sent along to take my horso when
I reached tho railroad.
" 'Yes i when you reach tho railroad I'
due of lliciu said. I asked for an explan
ation, but they cursed me. I didn't
know what to do,aud it didn't seem that
they desired mo to do anything. They
tied a rope around my neck.
" 'Let's swing him up here,' said one
festivo young fellow, whom 1 took to bo
in somewhat of a hurry. Then they bo-
gan to debate. Tho colored boy was
frightened out of his wits. Pretty soon
tney told him to go back aim to tnko my
librso with him. To this ho readily as
sented, nnd in a minuto more I was on
the ground. I begged for an explana
tion. One man soRmihly pointed to tho
ropo I woro.
"'Fellers,' remarked a thoughtful-look
iiig mau, 'wo'd better tako him over and
soo if ho is the right man.' This motion
seemed to prevail. They throw mo on
a horse behind a littlo fellow.and I start
ed off through tho woods. It seemed to
mo that wo had traveled an age, when
wo reached a dealing in tho centro of
which stood a email house. Several
men woro gathered in tho yard, and I
noticed excited women moving around.
Our arrival was greeted with a loud
shout.
"'Where's Abraham?" asked tho
thoughtful man of our party when wo
reached the gate. 'Abrani would be out
in a few minutes, llo caiiiei an old man
with gray hair and a hickory shirt.
" 'Wo vo got mm, Undo Abe, said the
man who proposed to nnng, 'and we ro
only waiting for the word ' Tho old man
regarded mo for a moment, and said,
lioys, no am t tho man. Turn him loose.
"Tho ropo was taken from my neck.
What was I seized fort' I asked of
Abram.
" 'Wall, you see,' said he, 'a feller
came along here this mornin' an' tried
to steal my dog. You ain't tho man.
You can go.' I turned and walked away.
I had gone about two miles wh'en a man
on a horso overtook mo 'The old man
must see you,' he said ; 'hurry back.' I
trudged back to the farm lio'use. Tho
old man was at tho gate. 'What do
you want?' I asked. 'I wanted to say,
young fellcr,thatit would bo a good idea
for you nover.nevor to steal a dog.' Then
i walked ten miles to the railroad. 1
have thought the matter over since, and
blamed if 1 intend to steal a dog,
Wha'.il you all have?
An Artistic Theft.
. When a certain gentleman living
Commonwealth avenue, Doston, left
i ji. . i . '
nuusu to go down io uiisiucss one morn
nig recently; ho forgot his watch and
left it under his pilloiv. It so hnpponei
that when the merchant got off the
horse car he met a friend who inquires
ot pirn the tune. Reeling lor his tune
piece, and finding that it was not iu his
pooket, gent No. 1 said: "Why, I've
loft it under my pillow."
uour or two later mat watcli was
in tho hands of a nobby young man, who
presented the wile ot the merchant, at
her residence, with a pair of line fish, as
coming from her husband, and told tho
lady that Mr. had sent for his
watch, which sho would find under his
pillow. Tho wifo had no suspicion of
the) dapper young man, especially when
sho saw the beautiful present her lord
had sent her.
tt'ni i. . . .
--xiio.su nsu you sent me, dear, were
just elegant, and I know we 11 enjoy
theni so much at dinner," said tho af
fectionate wifo when her husband re
turned to tho bosom of his family that
evening.
"What fish do you mean, love? I'm
sure x naven t sent anything here to

"Oh, yes, you didj havo. you forgot

"I hen that beautiful pair of fish have
just cost us $150. I never sent any

1 ho wife was much distressed, of
course, and her huiband felt very badly

Tennessee's Pictured flock,
l. . . tn I i X T , ... ,
.Mil iuu miles neiow -Misiivillo is a
curious spectacle, known as tho "Sun
and moon. It consists of a paintiu
upon an immense rock which rises to an
altitude ot several hundred tcet. As to
who painted it is a mystry which I
bcliovo was never unraveled. Manv
think it was tho work of tlio red brother
centuries ago perhaps. Hut there the
sun and moon shino out in all tho fresh-
nees of now paint, lhoy are located
midway up the cliff, and stand out iu
bold relief. As to how any human being
ever reached tlio spot is a question
which, I believe, has never been solved.
It is supposed that iu those days thoy
had no giant ladders, nnd could not
easily havo readied tlio point from
below. Tho only natural ropo of that
time was a wild grapo vine, of which
Tennessee is so prolific, and some
Indian might havo been by this means
down over the dizzy bluff, and when

theso pictures aro there on tho evor-
