in'',"i'' 111 THE WAGES OF SIN. Mow IN rrloilntl Popnlallon of Calhara Fee the Polite Officials.. F. nee the overthrow of the Tweed ring X-w York City hns lial a comparatively h' i est government. The one blot upon it n- administered is the collusion of the poiice with certain classes of what may be called the criminal population. ' H ia n undisputed fact that in this great city certain form of vice or law-breaking g undl rbed year in and year out le r use a i.uuiefd consideration is paid to t j pt.i i.ili litis. The minute that the j ymeii . f the money ceaess th:it minute tl. plact w closed. This may seem to be mi ungui-rdt d or reckless assertion, but its truth will be instantly recognized in journalise nnd political circles of this city. If the police alone profited by the col'ection of this blackmail money the levying of it would be stopjied in a hurry, but the bulk of the cash U pa-ed along up Into the coders of the political organiza tions, aud there the whole business is pro tected. Why is it that the most notorious police captain In New York City is always eet free, no matter what may le the charges ejunst him Why is it that he now nnus his fingers at the new accusations mad agntribt him and says to reporters v iio call on him Uiat the l'olice Commis sioners rnnnot and will not put him out for uot closing gambling houses in his pre cinct? Because he has paid more than tux) a month for the last ten years Into the treasury of a most Influential political or gsui.atioti and the politicians are strong enough to protect him. Not a gambling house or a house of questionable repute nor a liquor saloon that keens open after 1 o'clock in the morning ana on Sunday but pays its assessment with absolute regularity, and uot one of theae ulaci-s but expects to pay and is glad to pay rather thau tie niolesteu. It has come to be to loom in the nature of a tax or a license fee, and they charge it inro expenses as ranch as . they d'j gas or fuel. Not a young woman who walks the street.s i- a matter of busi ness but pays the policeman on. the )eat :..r the pntih-Be. and not a policeman Ihas p. ild tmt turns over n (-hard of if to hi ; .tiperior 'hc-r It has rotee t be a Tast, w.drly extemled evil, and how to prevent or lessen it is h problem worthy the most careful st inly. 1 1 is difficult to break up tie practice for the rensou that th ar ranifeii'ent 1s sitisfactory to those most concerned The gaming house or the place of id repute has no forms of law to observe..

Treatment of fells-Fever d Agra -1 Cure A fhrsp Ponltry Ilonee It was formerly claimed by some that feeding ruts to yonng colts mined their feet, but that id en has exploded. There ia much less danger of Injury to the feet than the stomach from overfeeding, nnd M a rule more stomachs suffer for the want of gmin than from overeating. The quantity of grain that aan be profitably fed to a weanling by farmers in the country where hay ia worth only from 30 to $13 per ton, and where the colt must depend solely anon pasturage from ,My till November, and perhaps later, cannot be determined by the quantity fed "by those breeders whose colte? are entered to trot at tw0 nd three ye f and w111 haVe plenty of exercise during winter as wen aa extra feed during summer months. Possi bly from two to three quarts of oats daily, with half that quantity of wheat bran, and all the choice early cut hay lt will eat, will prove about as much as country farmer can profitably feed under ordi nary circumstances. If the colt gets too much grain or concentrated food during tlis flrt winter, its stomach will not te properly distended, and ben tnrned to grass in me spring. lt cannot eat enouKh to keep It In a thrifty condition, nence iw erowth ia checked t a period when it U Important that it should be increased. The feet of c'olta suffer much more for the lack of care In keeping them properly shaped by the aid of a rasp than from ex ceassire feeding of grain. The feet of every colt alKuld be examined nnd trimmed at least once a month, sons to keep all the toe properly shortened, thiw preventing nndne strain to the tendons, vrhich In time is liable toreanlt in eerioym lameness. The bottom of the feet shonld also be rasped, so as to be kept perfectly level. .It requires some knowledge of the anatomv of the foot to do this properly, yet eveVy farmer, by examinpr. can see -when one side of the foot is becoming twisted oat of shape, and, by exerelsme a little Ingenuity, can, with a few properly applied strokes of the rasp, prevent de fects, which, if not arrested, are sure to detract from the value of the animal when ready for the market. Most country colts suffer tnore from the want of a comforta ble bed at niRhtthan from lack of feedd. The following ia s&kl to be a sure cure for fever and ane : 2 or best redbnrk, 1-9 oz cream of tarter, ff cloves pounded tine. Mix well and divide into 24 powders. Take 4 first day after chill, S the second dav, and 2 every day thereafter. Should be 'taken on empty stomach. It may be necessary to take half the receipt over arain but generally one prescription will effect permanent cure. Experience has proved that twenty fowls, properly housed, provided with B trr gni table food, pure water, clean nest boxes. entv of oust, lime in somn rorm, ana gravel, will return more clear Jiroflt than fifty, kept as they generally are upon farms. SupKesta good poultry house to the average farmer and frequently there arises in his mind the Image or an elaborate , affair costing; $100 to $150. Not being able to spare that amount for snch a purpose he goes without, and his poultry, exposed to the inclemencies of the weather, are a dead expense full two thirds of the year, eating vegetable food constant lv and yielding nothing in return. A poultry noiise large enough to properly shelter twentv fowls can be erected at the very small cost of $-l.S. We give a list of all the material, which, with the exception of the sash, costs S3. W.- The snsh was taken from a hot bed that is used for sprouting sweet potntoes In the spring-, - When the aash Is required for the hot-bed the sen-son is mild and the opening U covered with boards. This structure is fl feet wide, 13 feet long, and 5 feet high In the center. The short side of the roof is 2 feet lonp;. and the lone side, which fronts south and comes to within IS inches of the ground, is 7 feet. At the further end of the roof boards extend over nn opening made for the fowls to pass in and out. The porches are one foot above the floor, and extend along the north side of the interior. The bottom board on this side is hung with hinges soit can be raised and thedroppings under the perches scraped out. The nest boxes are arranged along the low elrle, the dust box is placed in the Runniest spot, and the feed and water troughs near the door. One pane of glass In the sash is loose so that it may be moved down for ventilation. The door should bo covered with sand when obtainable, if not. with straw, rhaff. or other similar material that can he raked out when soiled. The whole interior should be given a coat of fresh lima whitewash at lea.st four times a year, and the perches swabbed with kerosene. Hens kept in thia house Un steadily all winter. The poultrv house here described is easily cleaned, and answers the purpr-se nearly as well as one costing twenty times as much. The following is a description of a good rat proof corn crib: The crib is double, with a twelve-foot wagon-wny be tween, and on a stone foundation, fifteen inches above ground. Before laying the floor the owner laid sheet iron, painted on both sides, over the carts where the rata could ."taiul on the walls and gnaw through. He kept all ch ar nnderneath, so that cats and air have free circulation. The sides of the crib slope outward ono foot in twelve. This makes lt more diffi cult for rats to climb up the sides and keeps the sides from getting wet, and pre vents the wet from reaching the corn. Inside the driveway he has the same slope, and, lest a rat might climb up the side, he has a the top of the sides a board pro jecting six inches, so it Is not possible for a rat to scale it. The crib stands out by itself, no building adjoiuing. The drive way is not floored, because a floor there is not really necessary and makes a harbor for rats and gives them a chance to gnaw through the sides. He once built a crib, with a floor in the driveway, and could not keep rats out, though he lined it with sheet-iron up eighteen inches: This lin ing, too, made the sides so tight as to make the corn more liable to mold.

EASTEK. Koine Psieta Wort Y Knowing sbont (bla .vloat Anelent of Fsssls. ! Easter fAlls on April 5th thin year, which is earlier tlinn tiBnal. Tt cornea oftenest about the middle of April, but rotate be tween the last of March and the la.t of April. It la regmlated by the condition of the moon, being always the flrt Sunday after the full moon which happens npon or next after the twenty-first day of March, and if the full moon happena npon a Sunday. Easter day Is the Sundiy after. There has been a continual controversy In regard to the proper time for the celebra tion of Easter, and as it Is the most an cient of the movable feasts of the Chris tian Church, it is also the most important, as it determine all the rest. The dispute arose between the eastern and western churches, the former contending Easter to be equivalent to the Jewish Passover, and that therefore it should be celebrated on the fourteenth day of the first Jewish month or moon. ..The western churches celebrated It on the Sunday after the four teenth day, holding that it was the com memoration of the resurrection of Jesns. The Council of Nice determined in favor of the western tuutpre 325 A. D.); the de cision has since rested In that favor, the principal object being now to prevent Easter from falling on the same day as the Jewish Passover. They did, however, occur together in 1R05 and in 1825, and will do so again in the years 1903, 1923, 19VT7, and JWhl. This year, Easter, though happening early, will seem consistently late, as the season is uncommonly preco cious, and the Sunday that Introduces the inheritance of joy to the Christian, the occasion of feasting to t he faster, th stgrnal of spring to the invalid, the oppor tunity of gain to the school-boy, the cue of change to dame Fashion, the hope of sun shine to Nature herself, promises to be a faithful harbinger of all that is expected of it. The worship of the Goddess Ostard or Easter personifying the morning or enst, and also the opening year or spring, seems to have been strictly observed in northern Germany, whence it was brought into England by the Saxons. The Anglo Saxon name of April was Estermonath, and lt Is still known in Germany as Oster monatb. So it appears that many of the fopular observances connected with Zaxter are of Pagan origin ; thev only grew into religious rites through the pol icy of the Church, and it was found a sim ple matter to give a Christian signifi cance to joy at the rising of the natural sun and at the awakening of nature from the death of winter, since these sentiments became rynonymons with joy at the rising of the Sun of Righteousness, nt the re surrection of Christ from the grave. The kindling of bonfires at Easter is an old German custom ; but the one most charac-. teristic and widely known is the use of the Easter eggs, used in many ways. They are eaten, games are played with them, presents of them are exchanged ; they arn made the foundation for irsthctic skill from being colored with various dyes and herbs, to being painted in arlistic designs and ornamented with silken cords and tn-ssels, ribbons, and even monnted into Jewel rcceptncles, cabinet ornament, and boxes. Of course vrhen utili7cd in this way the meat of the rgs is removed. While it is hardly necessity to ; stale, thexe lattor devices are of modern origin; also the imits.t ion of egsrs is of a late date, and hardly carries out the Christian idea, as from their point of view the "fonst of eggs" was considered emblematic of the resurrection and of a future life In Scot land years ago Kastor morning, early, was the hour ot frolic for the young people. Thev would start at dawn or day in search iDf wild fowl's eggs for breakfast, nnd the num DC-r roTino v,rs ineir evinenrr oi inen. for that year at lcrwt. In Irclnnd they say the Hun daix es on Easter morning, if you only arise early enough to see it; but if any one ever has. t he fact has not yet ben recorded. In the Tyrol Enster is remem- musicians traverse the mountains, sing ing the Easter hymns to the accom paniment of the sweet guitar. The ) natives wear Spanish huts, orna I mentented with garlands and i bouqeta of flowers.

In Ches- ter, England, a'so." the Eactcr festivities are of rtosmnll importance. The towu it i self is so old snd withal so thriving a piece of antiquity that most of t he ancient customs and games are kept up. Such . ctirions pranks ss they sometimes resorted : to seem to the prowic people of these times ! almost improbable. V or instance, the cus i torn of " lifting." one, too, really in memory ! of the Resurrection. A party of youn : gallants would carry a satin-lined chair through the streets, into which when the I opportunity occurred they seated a fa;r I damsel, lifted her as high in the nir as the i ability of the young men would allow, nor I was their precious burden released until i she donated a kiss to each of her tormen i tors and pnid a fee besides. No rank could save the indivtdtial from trto chance of ' lifting." nor was the privilege confined to trie male sex, for it is said that King Edward I was " lifted" by certain ladies, and that he paid 400 for the honor. This is only one of the many singular customs in vogue at Easter in Chester. Eggs were used for all sorts of gAmes; . even the clcriir . could not forego the inspiration ot the occasion, and played ball with the ogs during church service, dancing the while. There were processions with music all day long, and the atreew were a continuation of banners, emblems, and crowds of noisy worshippers. "Within late years fancy Eas ter cards have been almu numerous and varied as valentines on the Itrh of Feb ruary, and some of them arc extremely beautiful; many are paitned in water colors, others are from the firms of Prang, Marcus Ward, IH la Hue, etc., and are gotten np in unique design. One especially appropriate was in the shape of a large egg about ten inches in length," colored, finely decorated, and containing six lsavos tied with delicate shade of satin ribbon. Each. leaf displayed a verse of poetry nnder six different headings, Faith,' ' Hope." "Charity," "Repent ance," ' Forgiveness," and "Peace." Ahothor was a card simply "but so ex quisitely tinted as to be nlmrVt nn object of art. The subject was a group of ruddy faced ehorub supporting huge egg, the whole being drawn by a ribbon -reined lamb Others there are of dainty flowers, nested eggs, emblematic devices, nil suggesting pome suitable sentiment in a well selected verse. Others are merely eKS" shaped boxen, covered with satin or ifk delicately painted ; some also of solid andy, wood r paste : but the greater number of them are made to open and dis play either a pleasing picture or a feast of sweeta.
