!.!J1 IMPRISONED. Fritting Ariventnre of Toting tv4l Pretty School Tearhitr. Katie Rankin Is a pretty, twenty year old 8choolmlBtrea Id a I'onnsyl vanla town. She Is also a heroine, as an advtnture In which she was the leaadlng character has proved. A two hundred and fifty-pound black bear was the other actor In the affair, and Katie's schoolliouse was tho scene of the combat. Just back of the one-story school house stretches a forest, up and across the mountain, which rises live hun dred feet or more. It Is no uncommon thing to see bears or catamounts la .these woods. The knowledge that there were wild beasts about caused Katie Rankin to carry a revolver, for her boarding-place Is fully half a mile distant from the schoolhouse. One night snow fell in that locality to the depth of twenty Inches. Next morning Miss Rankin started for her" school, going quite early, so that she could have the room warm before the pupils began to arrive. On opening the door, she was sur prised to find one of the windows la the rear of the room wide open. It had apparently been open all night, for the snow had drifted In. Hurrying up the aisle to make fast the window, she was startled to see a big black form lying on the floor close to the stove. She was about to flee when the black form rose up, and ahe was surprised still more to find it not a man, but a big black bear. She sprang to the door, but in her hurry to get inside when she arrived, a minute before, she had failed to re move the key from the outside, and It bad sprung shut, and thus was thij now thoroughly alarmed girl made a prisoner, with a big black bear as a companion. OKI bruin sat up on his haunches and blinked nt the torrlfle.1 girl. At last, having surveyed her to hia entire satisfaction, brtiln gave a loud, grunt, showed two rows of teeth, theft turned and shambled toward the open, window. With his fore paws on the Bill he looked back over his shoulder at Miss Rakln, who stood trembling ut the door, then he raised his ponder ous form nnd slid out Into the snow. It was then that Miss Rankin be thought herself, and rammed her hand Into her coat pocket for her revolver. With this as a helpmate, and the bear on tho outside of tho building, all her bravery returned. She knew that bruin could not well get back If she barricaded the windows, and ehe did want to shoot a real, true bear so Dadly. On going to the window, she wae surprised to find that the bear had not yet gone more than ten feet to ward the wood. The snow was sa deep and of such a feathery nat'ire that it was next to impossible for the woolly-coated creature to move. She did not stop to think that bears are not usually shot with a revolver. She watched bruin flounder in the snow, and knew that he could not get back to her, even though the first few! shots did no more than Injure htm. Simultaneous with the report of the firearm the bear jumped Into the air several feet, then went rolling into the snowdrift. An Instant later he was again on his feet, this time with, his face toward the schoolhouse win dow. Again Miss Rakln raised her pistol, this time taking aim for the bear's ye. The bear fell again into the snowdrift. This time he was slow to rise, and before he accomplished this another bullet went ploughing Into his body, and he lay down to die. The shooting at the schoolhouse was heard by those at a farmhouse Just across the creek, and several of the men folks came hurrying through the snow, one of them carrying a gun. The man with a gun made his way to where the bear lay, and found that the beast was not dead. He raised his gun to fire the finishing charge, but was stopped before he could pull the trigger by Miss Rankin, who ex claimed: "Here, I want to kill that bear." ! The man stepped back, and Miss Rankin, from her position at the win dow, sent another bullet Into the wool ly mass that lay partly hidden in the snowdrift. Miss Rankin has had a rug made of the bearskin. A Ite mt i f ill Theory shaken, The canals of Mars for a tluie'rtftrf the New York and Canadian canals appear insignificant, notwithstanding the energetic struggles of the canals to compute with the railroads. Then the illumination upon Mars gave the idea that the Martians were signal ing the earth, probably to warn us that an enlargement and improvement of the New York canals were absolutely necessary according to their ideas of canal matters. It is now asserted, however, by astronomers at the Lick Observatory in California, that no considerable bodies of water exist at all upon the planet Mars, and that Mars has absolutely no atmosphere. Thus Is swept away the long cherished idea that Mars has inhabitants who have built canals, with possibly pat ent lock-lifts and high and low bridges and kept these canals filled with wa ter from natural feeders and dams. Besides we must give up the idea that, overflowing with generous feelings these same Inhabitants of the planet Mars turned tholr attention to signal ing the earth and giving the people here pointers on the proper enlarge ment and Improvement cf their ca nals, Lost Ideas ar scattered every where along' life's pathway. Buffalo News. A Cloi. Call. There was a pause. It us like, the calm be-fore the cloudburst. "It seems," observed the man who liad successively discussed the weather antltoxlne and Ibsen, "that the women are somewhat divided by the blqom er." When he looked into the soulful eyes of the creature by his side, his first impulse was to explain that he meant divided as to aentlmont. Upon second thought, however, he concluded to urge her to permit htm to assist her to another plate of Ice cream. Detroit Tvlbune. ,i ABOUT THE FARM. The cold winter haa weakened the vitality of many animals. Horse will require cnroful spring feeding. Do not ovcrieod any animals. , A progressive dairyman puts It as follows: If you will go without a now suit of clothes this winter and buy a thoroughbred bull calf he will buy new clothes for all the family a few years from now. The proper temperature for churn ing Is from sixty to sixty-six decrees. Euch one should get a thermometer and decldo for himself. The tempera ture at which butter comes is the pro per temperature. Many reasons are given for the fail ure of apple crops In regions wflwre they were once abundant. Besides the destruction of the forests and the In troduction of diseases. Is there not another cause to be found In the ne gloct of tho hardy, full-bearing seod lings of our fathers for the tenderer varieties which bear more name than fruit? A crop of peas. If early sown, will make a good soiling crop that can be fed quicker than any other spring sown grain. It will make half Its growth before corn for soiling can be sown and have the young plant get out of the ground. Do not be afraid to use land plaster liberally In the stables, gutters and stalls. It Is clean, harmless and makes the stable lighter. Keep the walls white-washed and apply fresh plaster on the floors every day. It Is cheap, and a bag or barrel of plas ter should always be kept for conven ient use. Gradually the light Is breaking and our farmer boys are seeing that there uro Just as great opportunities for ad vancement In their line as In any other, nnd that going away to school to study agriculture Is as reasonable and profitable as to go away from home to study In order to become a teacher, a lawyer, a doctor, or a min ister. Early potatoes Rhoulil pay well, as they aro always In demand. A potato field should be kept clean from the time of planting to tho harvesting of the crop. Many potato fields aro al lowed to become so overrun with weeds as to make the cost of harvest ing more than all other labor given during the start, and the tubors will bo larger and the yield heavier. Old hay answers an excellent pur pose even when the cows have an abundance of green food on the pas ture. It Is highly relished by them, and they should have a full ration of It at night During tho season when cows are first turned on grass they should have salt, and should any of them have the scours keep them In the barnyard and feed hay, with a mess of hot bran sind cornmeal sea soned. Green grass Is laxative, and tho cows must not be allowed too much at the beginning of the pasture sea son. A Missouri farmer writes in the St. Louis Journal of Agriculture that he finds goats profitable for rough land flllod with weeds anl bushes. He has had goats for four years and they have destroyed the bushes, sumach and small persimmon trees. His hogs have been free from disease, while all around htm farmers who did not keep goats lost most of their hogs by chol era. The writer says that the meat of young goats Is better than mutton. The wool of sheep Is now worth so little that the question Is worth thinking of whether a few goats may not be kept with profit on rough land unsuited to cultivation in some of the liastern States. Millet nnd Hungarian II y. The hay from most varieties of mil let and Hungarian grass is so strong a food that It should be fed with great caution, especially to horses. It Is safer and more palatable If cut before the seed begins to ripen, but even then It should be alternated with other fodder. When grown on a good soil, through a long season, the large headed German millet is the best va riety, according to A. A. Crozier, of the Michigan Agricultural College. The pointed-headeil common millet is adapted to poor soils or late sowing. On fertile soils the small, slender Hungarian grass will yield a large amount of good hay In moist seasons. Millet can bo sown as a cntch crop fort hay when It Is too late to plant corn, or when Insects or a hard winter have destroyed tho clover, or whenever a seeding of permanent grasses falla For hay, plant half a bushel per acre; If for seed, sow one peck. It Is espe cially adapted to new lands and good, sandy soil. The thick stems cause tt to cure bettor if bunched In the field when partly dried, like clover. Am erican Agriculturist. f , THE POULTRY YARD. It Is not always safe to follow the fancy breeders. Market fowls influ ence them very little. The best fowls for farmers are those which have proved their good qualities. Geese of good quality nearly always; bring good prices In the market. The quality is uncertain, and hence the necessity of good breeds. The Toul ouse and Embdera are the favorite market varieties. Nearly all who seek pure breeds of poultry Inquire, "Which brood pro duces the best layers?" The fact la there is not the difference of a dozen eggs in a year between the best and the least, but there is a great differ ence In the hardiness of breeds. The best layers are not the hardiest. To succeed with the turkeys all that Is required Is good healthy vigorous stock and a little painstaking care with the young birds for the first week or two after they aro hatched, after which they will take cure of thembelves and will need little ct no food until tltao to fatten them In the fall. Numerous methods of preserving eggs are In use. The idea of all of this is to keep air out the egnf, as by such absonce of oxygon decay can be arrested for a considerable length of time, especially If the eggs are per fectly fresh at Uie start and are kept In a cool dark place. The standard method most UBed by speculators and dealers, is to put the eggs lu lime wuXer, . ... . i , , HE COLUMBIAN, NCWS FOR "THE DISHWASHER.

The seeds germinate quickly, and tho young plants bt.-irl of. at onco, providing a supply ou rich soil In a few weeks. Kale Is another hardy plant, and the seed may be planted very early. It Is thought that with the fungi rides now at command hot house grapes could bo successfully grown out of doors in moderate climates. The mildew of the foliage and the rot of the fruit have been the chief obstacles heretofore. Waterproof paper, which may be used for protection to plants, is ob tained by soaking manllla paper in a solution made by dissolving shellao In hot borax water. That Is, the bor ax Is dissolved In hot water, and the shellac added, to any consistency de sired. Dead branches should be removed from all large fruit trees, and, a writer says, cut back to the sound, healthy wood with a saw, afterward smoothing tho wounded part with a sharp chisel, and applying a coat of paint similar in color to the burk of the tree. Aside from the question of increas ed productiveness, the quality of fruit from trees well fertilized is enough better to repay the cost. If grass Is allowed to grow, top dress with stable manure and turn in the sheep to keep the herbage down. If carefully cultivated the fertilizer will better reach the roots than If put to grass. It is better to prevent blights upon the foliage of fruit trees by spraying with the Bordeaux mixture where they are even anticipated, but even after the foliage Is affected tho sprayings stop the injury where It Is, prevent ing any further spreading. We hard ly yet appreciate tho values of these mixtures. The New England Farmer has been studying the question and devoting much spaco to the shipment of apples abroad. A valuable point lu-ought out Is that the best quality of fruit, each specimen of which Is carefully wrap ped In paper and shipped in boxes of certain dimensions uets the shippers at tho rate of $1 a barrel more than, when shipped In barrels. This point Is worthy of the attention of fruit growers. It has been found thiit various com pounds of copper, zinc, sulphur, Iron, etc., will destroy the spores of all fungi with which they may bo brought In contact, and by thoroughly spray ing the plants with these materials the spread of the dlseaso can bo pre vented In many cases. Most of the fungi pass the winter upon the stems or tho fallen leaves and fruit, and only await favorable conditions for germin ation. Careful experiments have shown that In order to hold the dis eases In check early applications of fungicides are desirable. Care of Ro" IT milieu. Cut back the rose bushes so as to got more new wood. They can stand considerable shortening and will bo benefited thereby. Roso bnRtics will not thrive on grass plots. They must be on rich land and kept clean qf grass and weeds, while the soil should be loosened slightly on the surface oceasslonally. They should not be cultivated too much. Simply koep tho ground clean. Plants and Soil. ;. Analysis of the soil positively de termines the fact that there is an Imprgonatlon of tannin about the roots of the oak; an acid, resinous matter about laurel roots; that the poppy exudes a substance from its rootlets Blmlliir to opium. Just so will plants growing in water soon make that water turbid and partaking of their principle. . t NowlnV Seed. Seed should bo covered. It is true) that clover seod, sown on tho snow and allowed to remain on tho surface of tho ground, grows and mulus a good stand sometimes, but It Is safo to claim that the largo portion of the seed never germinates and Is lost. If grass seed la to bo sown on lawns the sur face should be scratched with a bar row, seeded and rolled. , . , . , , i mm Mi " III" BLOOMSBURG, PA. HER MIND VAS ELSEWHERE. And Vet Thejr Tell V Inn Hear Tiling Want In Votn. A stylish and refined looking wo man got Into a Broadway car recently. Seating herself In a comfortable posi tion, she gazed with placid counten ance on those about her. "Fare, pleaso!" recalled her to stern reality. With a confident air she put her hand In her pocket horror! nothing there but a hairpin! Madly she thrust her hand Inside her mysteriously made bodice nothing! Her face assumed an almost tragic fear as she gasped, "Oh, I have lost It!" "Lost what?" gruffly asked the con ductor. "My purse," she moaned. , "Isn't that It?" and he pointed to a neat little leather case lying Innocently on her lap. "Ah, so It Is. Oh, dear, how Tflry stupid!" Picking It tip, she handed him a brand-new dollar from Its con tents. "I am sorry to have kept you waiting so long," she apologized. The passengers smiled, the woman blush ed, and the conductor stepped out on the platform to make change. In a moment he returned and handed It to her, and his features had gone back to that Indifferent, cold stare of ft thoroughbred horse car conductor. Thanking him humbly, she began counting It. Over and over she count ed that money, each time her face be coming more and more puzzled. Once more she tried, but with the same re sult. Flushing Into an angry look, she beckoned him to "come hither." "Sir, did I not give you one dollar?'1 "You did, mum," replied he. "Well, there are but ninety-five cents here!" And sho almost threw the silver at him. "And did yo expect to ride freel What's the matter wld ye?" "Oh my of course what AM I thinking about I forgot the fare I hope" but her voice faded away as she noticed the suppressed laughter of the passengers, whllo the conductor scratched his chin and wondered when "them things would vote."
