A carious case occurred in Omaha the
other day. ,A mail miler was driving
past a train of cars, when l 'his horse be,
came.frightened and ran, , tfrr' c - 'l6:lg him
so that he struck on hi's head. It was no
ticed that the man's head, was twisted,
and that he was unable to move it, but
nothing serious was suspected until, after
'a few days, a thorough,,examination was
made, when it was 'discovered that his
neck had been dislocated between the'
axis and the atlas. -No 'operation 'was
performed, and during the -night the neck
slipped back inter its socket, and although
very, ill, the man will probably recover.
MURDER AND MARRIAGE
The Louisville - - Courier-Journel says
the trial of William McKinney l 'for the
murder of Alfred Smith, ended at Mount
Vernon Mas , ith. McKinney had seduced
Annie Smit?,, and her father drove them
.both from bis residence , last Christi - 6 . as.
It was in evidence that Smith stabbed
McKinney, who then shot the j ,foimer.
Annie was a witnOss to the , killing, and
• has been living with the accused. In an
orpiment, McKinney's counsel begged
the jury to let the boy go free, and prom
• ised that if they did he and Annie would
"marry. The jury gave a verdict of not
guilty, and immediately, McKinney and
_'the - daughter of the murdered man step
ped before the bench and were declared
man and wife by the judge.
,A CAT' S COSTLY MEAL.
A . sad.and singular affair happened in
Winona, Wisconsin, recently, at the
house of Mr. Ilenrich Wendt. Mr. Wendt
.was engaged in some work outside the
door, when-she heard her baby' scream—
an infant of two months : Hastening in,
the mother was met by the cat, which
ran on Mrs.: - IVendt's approach
mother,-to her horror, found that the ca
- bad been trying to eat the child. The
,skin and flesh on•either side of its little
forehead were torn and bleeding, the cat
having actually gnawed throught,.re
skull. 'The baby's hands were also bad
ly scratched, indicating that an effort had
been made to protect itself in its feeble
sway. It wasin a low condition, having
_ had spasnis from the severe 'shock. The
cat was killed. , 1 , .
NIP AND' TUCK..
' .Crane against Turtle is the latest in
• trance of nip and tunic iu natural history.
A white crane wa recently caught a
'Hickory • 'Grove, low:a, and on its bil
}there was a young turtle firmly fastened
The birdi was a imge specimen, measur
ipg seven feet frOm tip to tip, but was
nearly stltryed-to death. While stalking
around on the prairie it:had stuck its bill
completely through a small turtle, but
•,1
could not get the turtle off again, and in
I •
tthis_eondition had remained for days.
/The torge had become thoroughly dry
and itself nearly starved. TX turtle pre- ,
wilted the bird from opening its mouth
at alit-hence it could cat nothing. When
discotided it was fed, but tbe.fast was of
tfio itMfs duration and it died within two

II A lady in St. Joseph, Missouri, 'V, e
has iand had deserted her, heard that he
7 ' 36% paying.attentioqs to another svonin
!and called at the blouse where she was
staying. Ile was thnre. She walked in
and the first words 'she spoke were :
"John, come, let' ';go home." ,Ile re
plic.ll very emphatically that be would
not:, She insisted .that be would: He
still said he s would,not go, as she abused
Wiwi She put her hand under her shawl,
,drew forth a bright, new revolver, and
raising the implement of death to an an
. le of about forty-five degrees, asked
him once more y he'd go borne with her.
Ile iboked her square in the eye,_ which
was firm and calm, awl replied : " Oh,
yes; if that's all you want, I'll gladly' ac
commedate you." She steppedaside and
told . him to go out,, which he did, Ile
did not speak a word during the march
and when they art ived! atjtc,ine' such ';

Treat big man it rarely heard. He prom
iced to do better. ,
THERE'S M.%NY
Some time ago an 'old and well-to-do
gentleman, a witio . wer. residing in Grims.-
.Dy.' otmccticut, hecanie acquainted witL
a young lady in Easit — Flawborough, an
be watk so pleased with her attractive
qu:Oities that he formed a strong attach
ment for her. The result of the court
ship was that be offered marriage, and
the lad2,-,though accomplished and fair (
.andhence not likelv'to be troubled with
a scarcity of youthful suitors, probably
concluding that it was better to be an old
man's chilling than a young man's slave,
ace. pt d. She vas teaching in a; sclD
near Carlisle atthe time, and was highl:,
tcs'pectil throngliout the section, and
when she resighed her situation at
ter there AA as a general regret at her de
parture as well as hearty wishes for tlrei
future p4 , siwnty. But the course or
truelove does - not run smooth, •and
ease formed no exception. The would
Fe-britleg,room had some grown-up' did
dsen, and tLey bitterly opposed the mar
riage of their sire. It also happened, un
fortunately, that his property was tied up
in such a way by the Will of the de7easeu
wife that it was placed beyond his con
t.! 01, - and so tile match was broken off.
.S,nl to, relate the combination of unto
ward iliyet f unstances had such an effect on
the old man that he became insane, fano
he is now confined in an asylum.
AN INI E say - mint;
The London. Telegraph says that Ber
lin has just learned to its astonishment
and gratificatioty from a report of the-
Polytechnic Soctiety's latest Meeting, tit i
within its walls reposes a treasure of al
most fabulous-kalue, the very existence
of Iticli had.been hitherto unsuspected.
A member of the above named society is
the enviable o'imer of the largest sap
phire in the world—a stone weighing
neatly fifteen ounces.' Pure - sapphires of
good color hold so high atrank in the gem
market that,: were this gigantic jewel of
the first Water, it-could be worth no less
a sum than .4:2,200,0q0. It is, however,
not absolutely free froth impurities, a
fact which materially diminishes its prac
tical value, but enormous bids for it
made at different times by. German ptiM
r tes and wealthy mineralogiSts, have been
invariatly rejected by its proprietor, who
has constituted it an heirloom and confid
ed it, i t deposit, to' the custody of the
state judicial authorities. A sapphire
weighing nearly a pound May fairly claim
to rank as among the. wonders of fife
world.. It would be interesting to learn .
how so ex-traordinary a gem come into
the possession of the Prussian savant,
who exhibited it to the wonder-stricken
gaze of his, fellow Polytechniciaus the
other evening.
To achieve indepehtlence, you must
practice habitual frugality, and while
joying the present, look out for the tiny
day, and think of the possibility of, old
age, which needs to be provided for.
Wnr.x you observe 3 crowd attracted
by the tooting of a little German band,
you see what the French mean by tout en
sna business—Drick making,

Essay . on the Sfibject of Manor:
curing Land and How to -
Apply it. -
The proprietor of . the Riading
Eagle offered two premiums fortwo
of the "hest estlays on the subject of
manuring an'djilow to apply it." , To
pass upon the different essays writ'
ten in response to the premiums,
Hon. George D. Stitzel, Ezra High,
J. H. Funk; W. El: Moore and
Christian Shearer, all practical fai
mem. agreed to act as a committee
to read an& pass upon the essays
and award the premiums.
The committee examined' the dif
ferent essays submitted to them by
the writers thereof, and after due
consideration awarded the highest or
first premium to Joan S. Eekert, of
Womelsdorf,. and have decided to
hold the remaining essays under ad
visement. Following is, Ili - . Eck-
ert's essay:
I live in itleidelberg township, a
short distance below Womelsdorf, on
a farm owned by one of my best
friends, George B. Eckert, of Read
ing. E.have rived on this farm for ,
the last fifteen years. The comma-
nity know the condition of this farm
when I firat occupied it and believe
I have improved the soil as well as
the general appearance of the farm
very much. From what I .know of
fertilizing land, I belieVe barnyard
manure to be better than 'guano or
phosphates. Ido not believe in top
dressing with manure, fol after you
seed the ground the manure will still
be on top and a large part of, the
ammonia will be lost, instead of en
tering the soil and enriching it. My
plan into manure oats • stubble and
plow it under. The best wheat I
ever rafted was by plowing down sod
well lidlhd.. Manuring the sod or.
oat stubble !is ' very good, and I be
lieve- with a good season a splendid

crop will reward the farmer.
I believe farmers make a mistake
in seeding timothy. It would be
better to cast the timothy seed into
the sea and double seed with clover.
To plow timothy sod you will find it
hard and tough, the grOund looking
poor and the soil not in a good con-,
dition. Clover sOd . .ts right the op
posite of timothy— clover being
' blacker •and ~ richer. Some farmers
argue if they . do-not raise tiMothy
they will not be able toleed their
stock, as their soil is marshy, and
clover Will freeze out. Such .is . not
the fact if farmers will use 'barnyard
Manure instead of phosphates, which
I do not believe , pay the farmer at
all. Phosphates may pay . stnall.

quit the city and live in tbecountry.•
thekbuy a farm and-expect results.
front it just as practical farmers get.
These fancy book farmers forget the
-long and patient toil and close ob
servation of the laws of nature which
a practical farmer must possess to
make farming profitable. A fancy .
book farmer kelieves a man must
Serve An apprenticeship to become. a
watAmaker, but, that anybody can
farm. This is a great mistake. , Ex
perience on the farm is worth.more
than anything else. I think that .
aftei manure and proper cultivation
of the ground a evod.'season . coMes
next, for without weather to Make .
-what IVe plant grew a farmer's
labors .will not amount to much..
Every r farmer should • know that the
better the soil is tilled the more it
,will produce and pay. Keep your
weeds down. '
There is a great difference between
lithestone and gray el, soil, and - also
between rolling, level and lovr - lands.
Rolling lands will require more
feeding than level land on account
Of the drainage. Heavy rains 'on
rolling land will wash it and carry
off the fertilizers, which is not the
case with level lands with good
drainage. To raise a good crop of
corn plow rolling land in the spring.
and level land in the fall. Rolling
land when plowed in the, fall will, be
come mellow and washi out the sod,
while such is not, the ease with level
land. I 'believe in' deep plowing, if
the soil allows it. Deep: furrowing .
for planting, will cave: corn from
droveh and it will not blow down so

using fine iluSt-from thed'urnaces. put
on about four , inches -thick. I have
killed Canada thistles'' in this way,
and also have enriched the soil by. it.
You can get the fine dilst from fur : .

richly repaid for' your labor. -
A grave question for the consider
ation of farmers in the future will be !
fencing.; As the country. becomes
more thickly settled and timber be
comes more scarce fencing will cost
much more than now. To overcome
this prospective trouble I laaveosage
orange, which will last a lifetime and
will not cost as much as lost fence.
I plant osa . ge orange for two thou
sand feet at the cost .of three and a
half cents afeot, which are orowing .
nicely.* 1 would also urge my. feikiw
farmers to plant shade trees around
their dwellings, for in this way yon.
will make your homes more comfort
able and valuable. •
Often city people-speak of farmers
being careless in their dress. ;We
cannot be as tidy in our dress as city
people, for our business will
know how
it, but against.this we know heW
much better fresh milk is from a
cow than after it is hauled to the
city and drank by city folks. We
also knol how much .better - fresh
vegetables are than after they. are
kept for several days and then sold:
and eaten by city people.
To myfellow farmers I would say
'again, plow deep while , sluggards
sleep, and we will have drain to sell
and to keep.

Pasture Fields— Their iZenova-
Looking over an old pasture
ground this fall, we : are tempted. to
tell what its appearance told -us. If
it has .not told the .same, tale to
others, we are much mistaken, and
when we see so many pastures as
.this one was, we suppose there must
be many more deaf ears than atten:
tive ones in the world. This partic
ular piece said to us that it - was
really desirous of trying to tarn its
,talents to some account, but that it
was found to have rolled them up in
a napkin. It called us to witness
that at least four-fifths of its legiti—
mate ground had been stolen from it
by coarse weeds, that not a hungry, ,
cow would eat, and so Much of what
was free from these thievii was
plastered over by the excrements of
animals, as to make the product un
fit for cattle feed. And- we found it
so just now. On the higher parts of
the ground the worst part of' the
herbage consisted of oxeye daisies
and butter-caps, around which the
cows had picked a bit here and there.
In the bottom .land theft of the hei.
bilge consisted of asters, golden rods,
iron weed, nukes and - coarse sedges.
The cows were almost hidden - by the
weeds' luxuriance, and low ever it
could pay to keep such a pasture as
this was a Mystery to us. Yet this
land, probably ten Acres, iwas on a
property which the owner held at
four hundred dollars per acre; Now
taking the whole utilized product of
this lot as we saw it,it would eer-
tainly do no more than keep one cow
for a year, so that the interest of
four thousand dollars, besides labor
and , etceteras, went• to support one
cow. Our friend 14 one of those wbo
believes that soiling cattle does not
pay. There are' some objections to
this plan -we know, and we haye
date our - share in pointing them
out, as the duty of weighing loth -
sides which public journalism Im
poses on us calls for. But' if such
specimens as this was all the advo
cates of pasturing bad to depend on,
there be no question as to
which was the best side.
Our terrestial informant clearly
showed that with a!very little care •
,it was good, land. The high needed
a little Manure at times and the
lower needed ditching and draining.
It would cost, but little to do, and
when done at the -very lowest two
tons of good hay - to the acre would
be the result. Now the product of
this, at, the Idire..st figtire- for hay;
would be 'the interest of six thousand
dollars -at least, or considerably more
than double that which it was. ' Not - .
more than -a quarter of this would
have been required to keep a cow on
the soiling plan, while another quar
ter woukthave been paid for the.ex
tra labor, the Other half , wduld have r
probably been profit. The simple
breaking up of a; lot like this, so as:,
to 'clear out the cogrse weeds, and the
little improvement required to bring '
a good growth or grass, it equal to a
saving of two 'hundred dollars; a -
year, even at the-owner's estimate of T
four hmidred dollars an acre as the '-,
valhe of the ground. -Germantown

Apples are much: of the same pa
ture as,pears - . While there are good
crops in some sections, there are
failures la . others. We notie,e this '
the . present season. Then .again
there are certain varieties that we ,
are - told will not produce any longer; -
the trees get ,sickly and after a. time
die. New varities do better, though
they are-not equal in quality and do
not sell so well. . But the truth is the
old kinil4 fail to do well because the
vigor ,of the tree is exhausted, and
should be Succeeded by an orchard
of young-trees. 'lndeed there should -
always be tivo orchards- upon a farni -

there would -be little complaint.
