M.WICIERSIIS TELLS TIE FARMERS' STITLTE IF EUROPEAN FAESING. Even tlie Orchards There Are Used Fer Grewing Cereal Interesting A1- dress by James G. McSpar ran. The. Institute assembled en Thursday af ternoon at 2 o'cleck,.aml tha attendance was geed. Durlngthe afternoon the Frank lin and Marshall College Glee club ren dered number of fine musical selections. The pregrtnme of the afternoon began by an aduress en "Intellectual Development of Farmers' SensandDaughters," by James G. McSparran, of Greene, this county. The speaker took the view that a high degree of Intellectual cultura Is necessary for the sons and daughters of our farmers. Every one should se live that the world would be made better by their having lived in it. Me one should feel ether than proud of having been born and raised under this democratic form of government, and the farmer should be proud of his calling e." agriculture. Ulsthegrcatarmupen which the government rests. It la a great mistake te suppose that a farm can be managed without a geed supply of business and In tellectual tart. Farmers' sons and daugh ters should be educated In order te lift the farmer, as a class, above his surroundings, in order te gain for him the necessary re spect of the community. Farmers must learn that they must neither surrender nor compromise their position. Agriculture can still maintain its proud distinction among the industries of the land, but whether or net it shall dopends upon these who cultivate the soil, anil they must net only be taught the important truth that they must take euro et themselves but be qualified te de se. , Prof. David Wilsen took the view en the general discussion that young peeple en the farm should be taught te observe, and they should learn from such observations. A grout many of the toachersof the day are net competent te teach. Much is te be gained from close observation. Whatever is taught in the public schools let that be taught well. "Coaching," as it is termed In cellege vernacular, should be aliolished. All directors should be unselfish and com municate te their teachers proper methods of education. Dr. J. P. Wlckersham, city, followed In an excellent address en the subject of " a few facts concerning agriculture In Eu rope." The speaker stated that farmers in Europe attribute the depreciation in the value of their lands te overproduction in farm products in both America and Aus tralia. The mustard plant, which is ex tensively cultivated In France, could be profitably cultivated in this country, as the climates are considerably alike. Orchards In Europe are used te ralse ether crops besides fruit. The speaker noticed corn and ether cereals being culti vated amongst the fruit trees The Swiss take geed care of their sldehills and de net let them become furrowed by ravines as they are in tills country. Hills In that country are terraced Willi Imilt-iip walls of stone and well drained and thegrape is cul tivated en such lorraees for wine manufac ture. Cows and dogs are extensively used in Central Europe as beasts of burden whilst, in oiher portions of the country they are nearly made a meinber of the family. In some sections the female portions of a family are used te drag the plow. Euro pean farmers farm very clesely. Trenches, ure dug near the manure pile in order te save and preserve the liquid portion which is allowed .te run away In this country. ' Even bones are preserved and used as a manure. Although net very complimentary the speaker said that-when he came from Europe this country looked "wild" along side of some continental countries when a mental comparison was made between the manner of cultivation in both. All farms in Europe leek mero llke gardens, and all the work is dene by hand and net by ma chinery. In looking around the streets of old Manheim, In Germany, the speaker uadnet!ccd many familiar names of fami lies new resident in this county, such as Frantz, Kprceher, Daumgaiti.er and many ethors, showing, possibly, fiem where the ancestors of our htald, solid-going Lancas ter county farmers came from. Helland Is famed for its cattle and for its dnirying. The only crop raised oxtenslvoly there is grass, and It is used in 'cattle feeding. The wliole country is cut up by canals into two or three aero tracts, lle there impeded a medel dairy. The Helland Dutch are the cleanest class of peeple in the world. The cow stable in Helland is generally uacK 01 ine living rooms, uuu their stables are as clean as Heme people's houses. In front of the deer of such sta sta bie the speaker had found a mat and cur tains at the w iudews. und straps pendant from thecelllng te union the row's tails in elder te keep thorn from switching the dirt about. The saine state of affairs is maintained in Denmark, and butler man ufactured ln-cltber of these- countries is becoming celebrated fhe world ever. Eggs from theso countries are being imported into this country, and the day Is net far distant when butter will be sent from there also. Twe crops of vegetables are raised in a season there te our ene here. Prof. (!. H. Cochran, or West Chester, followed 1 1 au address oil "Milk Adultera tion and Milk Inspection." During his re marks the speaker stated that the ingre dients in a pint of puie milk are the fol fel fol eowing: Fat, 5.21 per rout. ; casein, 3.01 per cent.; sugar, 4.37 per rent. ; ash, .73 per cent.; total solids, H per cent. ; water, 8l per cent. The quality of milk will vary In the same cattle in different seasons of the year. In couscquenee of this fact you will always llnd the milk te vary and yet it may net be adulterated. A milk which is rich in lat should have a high density. The f.kt globules of milk are very small and will tleat upon water en aceeuut of them being much lighter that water. The milk of Guernsey cattle is exceedingly fat. Milk as a who'le is much heavler than water and will sink in that lluld. A standard test of milk Is net always a test of purity. Some milk will stand adultera tion te the extent of 1-10 of Its volume and yet bear a standard test. Diseased milk Is call ed by bacteria growths which produce fermentation and a eemse-ment chemical poison, which Is extremely dangerous te human life. Tyrotexicon, or ehee.se poi soning, is often produced by means of net thoroughly cooling and lerating It befere Hie, Ail abnormal condition of the milk can he determined by a chemical analysis, but any disease llke tuborculesls can only te discovered by a microscepical cxami- nation. . . .. "Order and convenience en the farm" was the subject of an address by William Chandler, of Chestnut Level. Each farm furnishes a ditlbrent problem of hew it can best be kept in order. In addition te the regular seasonable order en the farm there should be a dally order legulutlns all things en the farm, such as a time for feed ing stock, etc. All buildings should be conveniently placed In their bearing te the living house A geed supply of wa ter should be In a handy spot. Toels, implements, utensils, etc., should be kept In a particular place close at hand. There are many appliances which lighten the' Jaber of the female portion of the farm, and they should be purchased and kept In u convenient place te be used when needed. After the usual routine addresses and assays had been gene through with consid erable discussion was raised ou the ques tion of the depression in the value of land. The fnstilute finally adjeurned at tle o'clock. Uexlntr Hay. The boys of the hill are new showing their sporting bleed, last night In a resort known as a " shanty," w hlch Is frequented by young men, a contest with four ounce gle es took place betw een Geerge Docrsem und Jehn djiuer.

Bert Itlnehnrt said he had a man working en the stage who could pest bills with the best of them. He was given a brush, bucket, pair of everalls, and the paper, whereupon he started out. The first plaee he struck was Hliober's stable en Orange street, en which be was te put a stand with the simple word "KEENE." He started In by putting the "K" up back wards, am when the stand had beeu com pleted every letter but ene was found te be upstde down, and the letter that was right was an extra "E" that was net needed. The stand was closely Inspected by many peeple who hed occasion te pass along Orange street, but few could tell what it wus. Many thought it was a puzzle, ami In fact Manager Dur ban himself was net sure what It was. He had intended having it, photographed, but it was covered up te-day. If that stage hand ever gets the sconery mixed In the way that he had that bill there will be a riot in the opera house. TUB REFRIGERATOR CLUB.

The Immediate cause of Judge Kel ley's death was Intestinal catarrh, brought en by a cold contracted during Christmas week. Fer some years, however, he has been almost a constant sufferer from a can cerous growth In the side of the face, which was removed about six years age by a urglcal operation. The rellef thus ob tained was only temporary, and since that time It has developed se rapidly during the past year that it must have seen con quered him had he net earlier falleu a vic tim te the catarrhal affection.

William Darrah Kelley, who has been slnce December, 1877, the senior member of the lewer branch of Congress, or "Fatlier of the Heuse," was born In Philadelphia en April 12, 1814. His grandfather, Majer Jehn Kelley, was an offlcer of the revolu tionary war. His father followed the bus iness of watchmaker and jeweler in Phila delphia. During the financial troubles accompanying the clese of the war of 1812 Mr. Kelley fell Inte pecuniary difficulties; his business was ruined, and he was stripped of all his possessions. He seen afterwards died, leaving his family In very straitened clrcumstances, when William, who was the youngest, was but two years old. His mother, thus lea with a dependent family of three daughters and a son, suc ceeded in maintaining herself and her children respectably. William was sent te a neighboring Bchoel until eleven years of age, when he left It finally with only the rudiments of an ordinary English educa tion. He served for some time as an errand boy In a book stere, and afterwards on to red the olllce of the Pennsylvania En quirer as a proof-reader, and remained there until Ills feuttceiith year. He then apprenticed himself te a Jeweller. Soen after the termination of his apprenticeship he went te Bosten and worked for a time at his trade, ret urnlng te Philadelphia In 1S!9 te outer the law olllce of Colonel James Page. Twe years later he was admitted te the bar en the motion of his preceptor. The young lawyer's ferce as a public speaker attracted attention and brought him busi ness, if net enough ut oncetoturn his head, at least sufficient te keep him fairly em ployed and Biipply his wants. In 1815 he was inode prosecutor of the pleas for Phila delphia, te which place he was twlce ap pointed. The acceptance of tills olllce de volved upon the young lawyer the prose cution of all persons arraigned for partici pation In the bloody riots of 1811, and afforded rare opportunities for Mr. Kelley te display his indeiendeuce of character and forensic ability. He continued te perform the duties of Srosecuter until he was nominated by overner Shunk te a seat en the benli of the common pleas, eyer and terminer and quarter sessions. Judge Kelley's commis sion bore date March 13, 1817. In 1851 the olllce was made elective, and Mr. Kelley was chosen by the people te fill the position, which be held and re ro ro commissiened for ten years. He was a Democrat In early life. In 1800 he was a delegate In the Chicago con vention, and when Lincoln was chosen te be President, Kelly was elected te repre sent the Fourth district of Pennsylvania in the famous Thirty-seventh Congress Judge Kelley has held this seat without intermis sion for thirty years, always securing a re nomination and a re-election without serious opposition. Ill 1809 he was made u member of the commlttce en ways and means, and remained in continuous ser ser sor vice en that commlttee, a large portion of the time as chairman, until Docember last, when In consequence of his feeble health, he requested Speaker Read te give him a committee assignment which would ln ln ln volve less labor. In compliance with that requests le was made chairman of the com cem com mltteo ou manufacturing. Fer many years past Judge Kelloy has made his home In an attractive heuse in West Philadelphia. Some years age he was regarded as a peer man financially, but the appreciation of his West Philadelphia properly ultimately placed him In comfor table circumstances. A family of children has grown up around Judge Kelley. His eldest son, William D. Kelley, jr., Is ex tensively engaged In business in Birming ham, Ala., and another son, Bertram, is new a Btudent at the University of Penn sylvania. His three daughters are married, ene of them having bocemo the wife of a Russian gentleman while she was pursu ing her medical studies In Europe. He has for many years been known as " Pig Iren Kelloy. from his perslsteut ad vocacy of the Pennsylvania high tariff vlews in which the iron interests have llg llg ured. He was at ene tlme a great free trader, but later became an ardent protec tionist, und has written isoveral works in opposition te the Tree trade theory. Among his works are : " Reasons for Abandoning the Theory of Free Trade and Adopting the Principles of Protection te American Industry," Letters en Industrial and Fi nancial "Questions" and the "New Seuth." A large number of inombers ofCengrcsa, Including Representatives McKlnley, of Ohie, Drccklnrldge, of Kentucky, and ether of Mr. Kelley's associates en the ways and means commlttee, called at the Riggs heuse Thursday night te express their sympathy. The speaker, as seen as he heard unofficially of the death, re quested the sergeant-at-arnia te ascertain the wishes of the family with respect te the funeral services.

Draped hi sembrn black and adorned with a simple bouquetof white flowers the desk In the Heuso of Representatives se long occu pied by Mr. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, this morning reminded members that the "Father of the Heuso" had departed from their midst. The chaplain In his opening prayer referred feelingly te the death of the venerable congressman, and O'Neill, of Pennsylvania, thou In a voice which was at times shaken with emotion officially announced te the Heuso the death of his colleague. Upen the conclusion of his re marks he offered a series of resolutions which were unanimously adopted, expiois expieis lng the sorrow of the members at the death of Mr. Keltey,flxlng neon te-morrow for appropriate service in the hall of the Heuso, and providing for the apiolntnieiit of a commlttee of nine members, who with a commlttee of senators shall attend the funeral at Philadelphia.

Wild Fowls In Alaska. Until the acquisition of Alaska by the United States It was a wonder where cer tain wild fowls went when they migrated from temperate climes en the approach of summer, as well as snow birds and ether small species of the feathered tribe. It was afterwards found that their habitat in summer was the waters of Alaska, the Yuken river and the lakes of that hyberboreau region. A reporter lately Interviewed C. J, Green, of Norten Sound, Alaska, and he cenllrms the statement of Dall and ethors. " Peeple wender where thd wild fowl come from," said he. " They see the sand hill crane, the wild geese, heron and ether fowl every spring and fall pursue their unwearied way, but llke the wind they de net knew whence they come or whither they go. Upen Golevlno bay, en the north slde of Norten sound,' fa the breeding places of these fowls. All the birds In creation seemingly go te that country te breed. Geese, ducks, swans, and thous ands upon thousands of sandhill cranes are swarming there all the tlme. They lay their eggs In the blue-stem grass In the low lands, and if you go up the rlver a little way from the bay the neise of the wild fowl Is almost deafening. Myri ads of robins and swallows are thore as well as millions of magnificent grouse, wearing red combs and feather moccasins. This grouse turns as whlte as snow In win ter. Yeu can kill dezens of Juicy teal ducks or grouse as fat as butter balls In a few moments. The wild fowl and bears live en salmon berries and hucklchorrles, with which all the hills are literally covered." llowte Uninarry. Frem the Literary Clerical Life.

The killing of Deck Bell, a prominent citizen of lleflln, Ala., Wednesday night, by Sam C. Croamer, the marshal of the town, turns out te have been a very sonsa sensa sonsa tleqal affair.

He managed te get a seat, and when the conductor came around te collect his fare, he nover bothered about pockets or pocket books, but simply placed his hand te ene of his capacious ears and drew forth a shining nickel. Te say that the conductor and passengers were surprised puts it mildly. The conductor ou recovering him self, remarked : "Why de you carry your inoney there, Captain?" "Cause it's handy, sir," roplied the son of Ham, and the passengers all laughed at the new wrinkle In money pouches. It was ob served that he also carried u nickel In the ether car.

Helt, dancing master, had an xhlbltiouef fancy dancing und u dress ball, at his room In Eshleman's hall last evenlng. The danclmr was mostly hv children and they oxecuted many dlfllcult steps. A large number of persons, mostly parents of the children, attended and were much pleased. She llleuclied the Horses. At Batesville, Ark., a recent sheeting affray brought Inte notice a woman known as "Serrel Sue." She always appeared iu public riding a sorrel horse. It wus be lieved she belonged te a gang who stele horses. A surgeon, who a-hs summoned te attend one of her adinlrers who had been wounded iu the row, mistook his way und wandered te Sue's cabin. Bofero he could be hustled out he suwcertuln things which ai mined his suspicions. These he retried toSheriff Slincoe, who, with u posse, man aged te surround the den of the horse thieves, capturing Sue and two of her gang. He found that Sue had applied the means of hleachlng her own hair te that of the horses. When the pesse entered they found a horse enveloped lu a jacket made out of rubber coats, being treated te u sul phui vuKr hath. The appliances were very ingenious and worked very well. A block or bay herse would lie stelen and run into the bleachery. After Its color was changed and its tall und mune trimmed, the disguise became se pronounced that without any great risk the animal could be taken In daylight through the very district from which It had been stolen. It was Sue's business te net only superintend the bleaching, but also te rlde the animal out of the country.

Mr. Clark explained the nature of the or ganization, saying that it was a mutual consolation society, and any nun te he eli gible te membership must have been en gaged and the engagement must have been broken by tlie fair ene. He severely de nounced tlirtlug, and said that caused nlno nlne nlno tcnthsef the woesof man. Ten men ap pended their names te the constitution and each related his oxperleuco In striving for matrimonial honors.

A CAISSON DISASTKlt. Fourteen Men Drowned In the Ohie lllver nt Loulsvllle. Fourteen men working In a caisson used In the excavation of a foundation for a pier of the new brldge across the Ohie river, between Loulsvllle and Jcffersou Jcfferseu ville, were drowned en Thursday. The caisson Is located 200 yards from the Kentucky bank, in about 25 root of water. Twenty men were working in it. Thn caisson proper is 12 feet under water, and Is reached by a maiihole shaft, which pro jects abeve the waters. This shaft Is reached by four trap doers from the Inte rior of the'calasen. 8uertlv liofero 0 o'clock Thursday oven even lng. while the men were excavating the bottom of the caisson, the water from the rlver burst under the edge of the huge machlne and the unfortunate worknien were caught llke rats In a trap. Abe Tayler, ene of the survivors, tells the following story of fhe accident and the horrlhle fight for life of the paiilc-Btrlckeii workmen imprisoned lu the air chamber beneath the bed of tha rlver: The men wero at work lu thn soft bottom of the river. Tlmy made such rapid pro pre gross in the muddy surface that the exca vation went down faster than the caisson, whose great weight was expected te carry it gradually down, kceplng pace with the work of excavation te a rock foundation. Thursday nftoriieou an unusual quantity ofweler began te trickle from under the caisson's edges, hut the pumps wero nt work taking It out, and no apprehension was felt. Gradually thn incoming tide In creased until suddenly, from under the edge of the caisson, ou every slde, a flood gushed In. The men tee Inte realized their deadly peril, and alt rushed for the exit Inte the escapa pipe. Immediately around the llltle trap deer Which admitted te llbertv and life the fiantle u nfortunates fought like demons, all knowing that but a few of theni could pass through the Inner trap befere thn air chamber was completely lllled from the In-rushing tlde. Only ene could go through ut a time, and as ene man gained a pro-cmlnenco, he was snatched by ills frenzied companions und drawn back Inte the struggling crowd. Mcanwhlle the Heed rose rapidly and re lentlessly. The caisson reef was scarcely higher than the men's heads, and te he left behind was thought te be certain death. The following Is the list of killed : Will iam E. Hayiies, 40 years, Ioulvllle; Jehn Knox, 28 years; James McAdntus, 20 years, Hyde Park, Ph.; Frank Mahar, na tive of New Jersoy ; Pat. Naylqr, 27 years, Philadelphia ; Themas Ash, colored, 38 years, Hendersen, Ky. ; Menree Bow ling,' colored, ,11 years, Hendersen, Ky,; Charles Chiles, colored, 30 years, Hender Hender eon, Ky.; Themas Jehnsen, colored, 30 years, Hendersen, Ky.; Jeseph Gorden, colored, 2T years, Honderson, Ky.; Hamil ton Merris, 20 years, Honderson, Ky,; Frank Soaper, colored, 25 years, 1 lender son, Ky.; Rebert Tyler, 10 years, Hemier son. Ky. Tlie men saved ure as fellows : Abe Tay Tay eor, Lew Is Cech and Frank Iladdex, all of Honderson. The Inst man out of the caisson was Frank Iladdex. He was barely saved by Murray, who dragged him from whero he was caught, waist deep in the quicksand. Tayler savs he steed nearest the Iren lad-' der, by which they get in und out of the caisson no iienm a rumming, aim inere was a rush et air almost at the same In stant. He Jumped upon the rungs of the ladder, followed by tlie ether men. They had hardly get clear of the caisson when tlie water burst through the maii maii maii hoeo in a surge, knocking theni all Inte the river, whero tliey wero picked up. Hd Hd dex says he saw Ham Merris, who was climbing next belew himself, swiftly drawn under by the sand, and heard his cries for' help, hut could de nothing. The caisson Is net wrocked, as at first supposed, but lias settled down in the bed of the stream, rompletoly filled with sand and water. The pumping station Is hard at work cleaelng the way te the bodies. Jehn Knox, the gang boss, took charge of the work en Monday. The men who escaped say hn had theni dig tee doep be be be eoeo letting tlie caisson settle and the dlg dlg dlg Jlngwastoeclosototha shoe of the caisson, ust bofero the accident Knox gave seme erder te Rebert Baldwin, the keoper In charge of tlie u pper deer te the exit. Bald win thou opened this deer and the com cem cem pressed air, which '.kept out the river, rushed out, letting in the stream. The men say that they were working in an ugly quicksand at the tlme. Thn cais son was 10 by 20. and built of timbers 12 inches square. It was protected by a cof ferdam, but the rlver is very high und the piossure el the water very great. Mr. Ingle, the leddunt engineer of the Brldge company, te-day, expressed the opinion that soma ene was evidently te blame for net having tlie trap deer In proper cenditien and also for tlie weakness of tlie caisson, which resulted in the leak. He docllned te express himself without re serve, as he was net In possesslonof all the facta but suld that such accldeiits wero rare, notwithstanding the great apparent danger, and that thore was evidently gross uegjlgence somewhoro. TWO AliPITIONAI. VICTIMS. Leuisvim.k, Jan. 10, The bodies of threo unfortunate victims of the caisson accident were recovered by workmen this morning near the deer leading from the caisson. The positions lu which they wero found showed that a desperate struggle had taken place at the narrow deer of the escape. The bodies wero feuitd wedged togelhor as the'igh each had endeavored te escape first. Furtlier investigation shows two mere men te have lest their lives Hamilton Merris und Lewls Cox making the total sixteen. Rebert Baldwin, reported last night us baltig among the dead, and Lewls Cox, re ported this morning as dead, have made their appearance. Only ene body has been recovered up te tills hour neon. Other bodies In sight are wedged In the maiihole se that they cannot be removed. Violated the (Jmne Law. Richmond, Vu., Jan. 10. Hen. Jehnfl. Wlse, of New Yerk, who Is well posted In sporting matters, in speaking of the recent hunting trip of President Harrison and party te Virginia waters, remarked that the presldent and party are liahloteflno and confiscation of their fowling pieces. "Why?" he was asked by his friend te whom he was talking. " Because thore Is a statute," Mr. Wlse repeatcd, " which ox ex prcssly provldes that any nou-resldent of the state who shall kill ducks belew tlde water In this state shall be aineuable te such punishment." It is bad enough for Gcneral Harrison te be charged with the murder of GUbert Woot ten's pig, but It would he werse te have him brought be be bo eoro a Virginia magistrate for violation of gamelaws.
