I'll uev»r-i: forget that driye._ It was a bright star light night and so frosty that we had to get down and run along the road beside the wagons to keep warm. There ■ wasn t an overcoat nor a wrai) nor a; stitch of cold weather underwqjdfo the' crowd, but we intended to those^ things in Pittsburg, such as wf won I a need in the South "Business was not so good in Butler as it had been in other places; the weather was too cold. But we had a fair andience at night —enough to leave ' a few dollarsover after paying expenses. ' Such a happy crowd as we were, i English Charley, the clown, never sang I his old time-worn song about the agri ' cultural Irish girl' so well before, and t we were all in fine fettle as we lined up behind him to join in the chorus "She was a big. long, lean, lank Sort of an agricultural Irish giri She never paints nor powders. Her figure was all her own. She would hit that hard. Yon wonld think you were struck by i the kick of a mule, j Tlie full of the house of Irish loye Was Mary Ann Malone. Many a time that season we had this chorus in a half-hearted way, j but u> night there was plenty of vim in 1 it- , And then came the star act of the ! show the one that always pleased the country people. This was 1 Boston. the chandellier man. I and his trick mule, Boston used to tend I the lights and also act his trick mule. ' Made up as a clown he bounced into the I ring with his mule and rode it around and around and then announced, as be had every afternoon and night that summer; . I "Ladies and gentleman. I wish to an nonnce to you here and now that the ' management of this show will pay *lOOO iu gold to the man, woman, or child who will ride this animal twice around the rin*." , , Then he paused, whip in hand an<l looked around the circle of seats, as he always did. Of course no one but Bos ton himself could ride that mule. Had n't a thousand people attempted it and got bruised and laughed at for their trouble? The thought that it was even possible tor anyone but Boston to ride that mule more than ten feet en tered the mind of a man in the outfit. "Boston repeated his offer and a tall gangling countryman got up from the top and rear row of seats and picked his way down to the ring. " Ah!' shouted Boston, liere conies a gentleman who hopes to win that thou sand. Ride him twice around, sir. and the money is yours.' "The gawk stepped into the ring and 1 with a look of intense earnestness and determination on his face sized up the mule, who stood under the flaring gas oline torch flapping his long ears and blinking his eyes as much as to say: •Just watch me roll this yap as fiat as a pancake.' The farmer stepped up to the mule and quick as a flash he was on top of him with his long legs around the mole's neck, his cowhide boots tied in a knot under his neck and the mule s tail grasped firmly in both his hands. 'I he mule looked surprised. He had never, in all his experience in the ring, been mounted in that way before. He look ed more surprised when the man 011 his back jerked his tail up and sank his teeth into the flesh on his back. That mule gatfe one wild snort and bray and shot around the ring, not only twice but half a dozen times, before he leaped the ropes and fairly flew into the dressing tent. Boston stood there leaning up against the centre "pole, the pictnre of amazement and despair, his long whip trailing in the sawdust, his eye on the opening in the canvas Haps through which mnle and man had disappeared. "In a moment the man came out grin ning. The audience w as cheering and applauding The word spread among the circus men • " "Boys, the thousand is gone,' and they flocked rn. The old limn sank in to a seat and moaned: 'Boys what will I,<lo?" t. . "Dctrf t give up the thousand,' suggest , ed two or three.; But the audience was already tflamoritig for the man to be paid. We all knew too Well that if we did not pay it the, crowd would clean us out bag and baggage. The old mail staggered into the ring, fumbling as he walked for the wallet inside his vest. As he (passed Boston, who' bad dropped to a s£it on the ringside, he said woe fully J " 'Oh, Boston, Why didn t you offer only a. hundred t "He paid the gawk the $l,OOO, the audicuue yelled its delight, the show ended right there, arid after the" Inst specata'tor was gone we built a fire in the ring, pulled up trunks and boxes around it and sat there till morning, be moaning thp hard luck' that leff Us dead broke itcd stranded between the end of a hard summer tyid the "beginning of a hard winter.' t _ Th<i Census.

Hurrisburg. June 27. —All Penusylvu nia is interested in the return of the "Fighting Tenth" regiment of tlie Key stone state, now enroute home from the Philippines. This gallant command, composed of the sons of the best known families in the' western counties of the state, hat made a splendid record in the ter rible battles in the distant islands of the Pacific and the old commonwealth will ring from one end of the other with glad greetings to the brave boys who have been fighting so heroically for th# flag in the far eastern coun try. Governor Stone has been co operating with the special citizens committee which is to arrange for the reception of the regiment on its re turn to this continent. The troops will land at San Francisco, and an ef fort is now being made to have the regiment mustered out at Pittsburg, instead of on the Pacific coast. Colo nel Quay and Senator Penrose are do ing their utmost to have the secretary of war direct that the regiment be kept together until they reach Pitts burg, so that the people of thfir own state may be able to give them a fit ting welcome. Mayor Diefc!. of Pitts burg, i 9 working energetically to have that city make suitable preparations for a grand popular demonstration which will equal, if not surpass, any thing of the kind gotten up to honor the returning soldiers at the close of the civil war. Philadelphia is also talking of joining in this exp; •-ion of patriotic admiration of the "Fighting Tenth," and is ready to give the regi ment a great reception if it shall be possible to get the command to the Quaker City. TWO CONSPICUOUS FIGURES. Two conspicuous figures in the "Fighting Tenth" are Colonel Alex ander Le I toy Hawkins and Lieutenant Colonel James Elder Barnett. Each is coining horrie with glorious laurels won on the firing line and each is bound to be hailed as a hero by the people of Pennsylvania, who arc proud of their patriotic services. Tresident McKinloy has been asked to promote Colonel Hawkins to Uie ranU of briga dier general. A recommendation has been made to the president by Gen eral Mac Arthur, who was in command of the forcej of v. iiioh Colonel Haw kins' regiment f.-a a t>a.rt. Colonel Hawkins is a hero of two ware, hav ing. served with signal ability and bravery in the Fifteenth Pennsylvania cavalry in the- war of the rebellion, and his present regiment lias been in the dervice of the United States since May «.f last year. It took a conspicu ous part in the battle of Malata and in the capture of Manila artd in later en gagements with Aguinaldo's men. Lieutenant Colonel Barnett has a splendid record for bravery in action. He has been strongly recommended tu the war department for promotion for his work in the Philippines. He is per sonally very popular, and when the boys of the "Fighting Tenth" reach home he Is bound to lie one of the heroes of the hour. He has a wide ac quaintance in the National Guard of Pennsylvania, with which he has bee.i connected since 1884, serving suc cessively as private, corporal, sergeant, first lieutenant, captain and major be fore jhe was nominated for the com mand of the First battalion of the "Fighting Tenth-" He lias always been an active , Republican, is a native of Indiana j-ounty, but now resides iu Washington county, which is also the home of <Jolonol Hawkins. lie is a graduate of the Colombia Haw school, and was admitted 10 the bar in 1890. HONORS AWAIT THBM. Th* home coming of Colonel Haw kins jand Liciiteriant Colonel Barnett naturally directs attention to the fact that they are both mentioned for the Republican nomination for state treas urer. It I 3 not known whether either of them would consent to allow the use of his mime in - this connection. Coloiiel .Hawkins has had a trying time In the Philippines. He has lost ovec 75 pounds, and is not in the best phyeital condition. In view of the fact that tie was elected to the last state senatf while out with his regiment, but never qualified, he may prefer toacdrpt that position. He would cer tainly; have a whirlwind campaign Rhoulfl he be placed upon the Republi can ticket. Lieutenant Colonel Bar nett Would also make a marvelously strong candidate, and it is generally conceded that the Republican organiza tion be fortunate if either Haw kins or Uarnett shall accept a nomina tion fjbr state treasurer. Chairman John P. Eikin, of the Re publican slate committee, has issued the call for the Republican state con vention. fixing Thursday. Aug. 24. as the tipie. the Opera House at Har riabur<g as the place for the gathering of thd delegates to came the Republi can ticket. The Philippine he roes bught to bo home before that tlnje, if there shall not be unexpected delays in tho passage. If neither Hawkins nor Barnett shall lare to make the canvass there is an otherjsoldier. Brigadier General John W, Sfhall, of Norristowm who lifts been proposed for state treasurer, and he has already gotten the Montgomery county delegation instructed for him. He, tpo, has a good war record, ami has ai host of friends in the National Guant with which iiw has been Iden tified prominently for a number of years] ' PHILADELPHIA'S FAVORITE.

The culture of ci in in a general senso consists of doing two things -killing weed< nnd :-tirTing the soil. Weeds are injurious because they consume the plant f> od aud to that extt nt they rob crops They also take large quantities of water from the s it. the soil aids in the formation of plant food, aerates or ventilate tiie soil, influences soil temperature, improves tilth, and in a measure controls the supply of moisture. With these two lpading thoughts in mind we will let them gov ern us throughout the corn growing season, says a writer in The New Eng land Homestead, in preface to more minute directions in which the follow ing items occur After the soil is well plowed thorough pulverization is necessary. The disk harrow, the spring tooth and smoothing harrow, and a drag, or roller, make a good combination for this work. A few days after planting, just before the corn plants begin to come through, go over the field with a harrow. This helps with the further pulverization rf the soil and kills all the little weeds. In a week, when the corn is two inches above the ground, go over the field a second time with the harrow This leaves the soil fine and mellow, the field clean and active, and the corn plants not hurt a particle. Begin culti vation at this stage for an additional reason—viz, stirring the soil to control the moisture supply. Water comes up in the soil just as oil in a lamp wick. It has capillary flow —that is, little tubes are found in the soil and water rises from soil particle to soil particle, and when it gets up to the top of the ground it vaporizes. In slirring the soil we simply break off the top of these tubes, and the fine dirt acts as a mulch, there by keeping this water in the soil. Abont two inches, all things consid ered, is the best depth for cultivation. Cultivating in clods or to an unnsnal depth destroys the roots and injures the plant. Neither does it furnish an effect ive mnlcl). Summing Tip. the following should be borne in wind Begin the cultivation of the corn before planting time, har row the ground at least twice after planting, cultivate after every rain to break the ernst—cultivation is needed as roach to coii)*ervo moisture as to kill the w.'eds— keep cnltivatore a way from the corn roots, never plant corn in clods, have the cultivator leave the soil level and evert, but not in ridges. the weeds: they are the worst enemies of corn /Wilier has THG/V\!
