v’v. But he had so much to tell her. He
grew warm upon the subject of his
newly recovered faculty, and she
listened as if she drank life and hap
piness with every word. Ho was so
glad to be able to tell her all he re
membered, his boyish history, his
days at school and afterwards, and
he wandered on to his rovings on the
prairies. Lucy’s face became paler
yot, and a hushed awe trembled on
her brow.
He told her all that he remembered
about their first meeting, and about
his encounter with Dick Ashland.
■v. ; (Suddenly, a look of horror crept over
his features. He started up, as from
£H a fearful dream, and stared at the
girl who sat in front of him.
“My God!" he exclaimed, “it’s
:r come back to mo! It’s como back to
roe! It was David Maclano who mur
dered Dick Ashland, and who tried
S to murder me!”
He roso writhing his arms in the
air, and with staring eyos, he re
treated a step or two,
“I can see him as if it were now,1'
< ' ho added, in nervous rapidity. “I
can see him in tho moonlight. I am
lying hore, and Dick Ashland is ly
ing there." He pointed with out
stretched fingers to two distinct
kj,: places on the carpet. “We are both
shot—those fiends, the Maclanes,
have shot us from the gulch head
above. I can see David Maclane
. drawing a big knife across Dick Ash
land’s throat, and the blood is spurt
ing all over him as ho kneels, and I
fire at the hound from whero I lie;
and ho comes running towards me,

takes my pistol from me and beats
me with it on the head—savagely,
furiously. And I hear a woman’s
voice, crying ‘Stop! stop!’ and I can
see you. Lucy—you Lucy—coming
down the gulch side.’’
The hot tears were streaming over
his face. His breath heaved as if in
suffocating agony, and his hands
quivered by his side.
Lucy had risen also, and was
/ standing there like a white statue of
despair, wringing her hands in
’ voiceless, tearless torture.
He gazed at her long and Intently,
drawing his breath in vain efforts to

When the picture of that fearful
scene was completed, and he had not
pushed her (from him In disgust as
the daughter of an assassin; when he
had only found words of praise for
what she deemed but her duty hum
bly done, the warm fountains of her
heart wore loosened, and Lucy found
relief in balmy tears. Her heart
. strings, strained to breaking nearly,
again made tender music. She
stooped to him. and obeying her gen
tle impulse, he rose to his feet
They were both overstrung in
mind. Sir William had permitted
them to walk in the garden, and they
stepped out into the sweetly cool
night
How long they walked up and
down there, with barely a word
spoken now and then, neither of
them knew.
The heavens glittered with their
canopy of stars, and the ghostly
light of the moon spread like a
pearly foam over the sward and
the flower-clad borders.
They walked around to the other
aide of the house, whore a bench
invited them to a momentary rest.
It was now Lucy's turn to open her
heart He knew all. all that she had
hoped to hide from himr-her father’s
crime, her cousin’s guilt Her task
was ended, she said; fairer hands
than hers would smooth his path—a
worthier woman than she would
bring him love and affection. All
that remained to her now was to go
away—far away—far away from him
and from the world, to some spot
where, forgotten by those she knew,
she might bring solace to Borne who
were suffering.
He started up as If in fright

At that moment, on a sudden, a
fierce, fiendish, unearthly roar grew
into a hundred deafening crashes not
far from them. The very earth
seemed to tremble, and their fright

CHAPTER XII.
The Morning Nows, of 18th
July, I860, contained the following
paragraph:
••A terrible, and np to this moment,
inexplainablo explosion of gun
powder oocurred about 1 o’clock this
morning at Keedon Lodge, a small
house standing In its own grounds,
on a lane between Shepperton and
Halliford-on-Thainos, about nineteen
miles from Charing Cross. Mr.
Samuel Bond. the proprietor of the
•‘(Ireyhound” inn, at Shepperton, a
few weeks ago, let the house to Mr.
Sylvanus Thompson, who lived in it
with a sick friend, whose name is un
known, and an elderly servant. Mr.
Thompson was not in the house at
tho timo of the disaster, but it Is
teared that both the other men have
bocome victims to the explosion.
Tho houso was completely destroyed,
and fragments have been found a
quarter of a mile away. Considera
ble damage has been done to the
next building, Tho Nest, belonging
to Sir William Cuthbertson, but,
luckily the earl of Clove, and a young
lady, and an attendant, who were
staying at The Nest at the time, es
caped without injury.”
The “Morning News,” of 20th July,
contained the following:
“We can now amplify the length
ened and detailed account, given
in our issue of yosterday about
the explosion at Hoedon Lodge,
by some startling and horrify
ing particulars. Upon the re
moval yesterday, by the workmen
engaged in tho task, of the debris of
the gutted place, a shaft about ten
feet deep was discovered in the cen
ter of the floor of the lower room.
The men who descended found that
it communicated by an excavated
narrow tunnel with a small dug-out
chamber underneath the room in
which the earl of Cleve has lately
been confined. This, in addition to
the discovery of the packet of un
exploded fuses.and the large amount
of gunpowder that had been stored
at Reedon Lodge, points inevitably
to a dastardly, but happily by Provi
dence frustrated, attempt upon the
life of the young eari. The matter
is now in the hands of the authori
ties at Scotland Yard, and active re
searches are being made for Mr.
Sylvanus Thompson, who has not yet
shown himself, and whose where
abouts are totally unknown. ■ Wo
understand the earl of Cleve has
offered a reward of a thousand
pc :nds for the discovery of the per
petrator or perpotrators of this
crime, and wo are happy to add that
Lord Cleve, who, as our readers are
aware, has only just recovered from
a dangerous operation, is none the
worse for the accident ”
The Morning Nows of 28d July,
published the following:
“The accumulated evidence con.
corning the explosion at Reedon
Lodge, Halllford-on-Thames, becomes
daily more appalling. It has now
been incontestably proved that the
horribly mangled remains of the two
men killed by the explosion are
those of Mr. David Maolane and Mr.
George Maclane, two American mil
lionaires, residing at The Boltons,
South Kensington, who had lately
attracted a very great deal of atten
tion in London society, Mr. David
Maclane having been engaged to be
married to Lady Evelyn Wynter,
only daughter of the marquis of
Gwendale. The awful news has
spread consternation in fashionable
circles, and people are asking with
bated breath whether the Maclanes
are the victims or the originators of
an attempted dastardly crime.”
The Morning News of 27th July
said:
“No doubt whatever remains at
the present moment that the wretched
men, Geo.-ge and David Maclane, be.
came, by the intervention of an
avenging Providence, the victims of
their own fienaish scheme to assassin
ate Lord Cleve. The earl has informed
the authorities that David and George
Maclane were the men who at
tempted to murder him in the Rocky
mountains, and that it was David
Maclane who had inflicted upon him
the terrible wounds which had
brought about his total loss of mem
ory. The motive for this second at
tempt on Lord Clove’s life was the
fear of discovery and conviction, re
sulting from the earl’s newly-re
gained faculty of memory.”
“The Morning News, of 16th
September, 1860, said:—
“The English consulate at Paris
has received information that a very
large sum of money in notes of the
bank of England and bank of France
has been found upon the body of
Herbert Vavasour, an English gen
tleman. who has died of delirium
tremens at the Hotel des Etrangers.
No papers or documents of any kind
were found giving a clue to the de
ceased’s friends or relatives, and the
money remains in the possession of
the French police.”
From the Morning News, 26th
September, 1860:—
-The body of the man calling him
self Herbert Vavasour, lately de
| ceased in Paris, has been recognized
J as that of Edward Wall, a convicted
i thief. The numbers of the notes
! found upon him proved that they
j were issued by the bank of England
. to David Maclane who was killod in
the Ueedon Lodge explosion. ”
The newspapers of tho year 1860
do not show that any further evidence
wai> adduced to prove who was the
actual perpetrator of the Reedon
Lodge outrage. I am therefore,
justified in believing that it remained
one of those mysterious crimes
which the London police have been
unable to unravel.
l’f.nvoi.
“Mr. Quonthelm has settled it all,
my dear Lucy," said the earl of Cleve
to the beautiful young countess, “and
we will not touch one copper of
these blood-stained millions. A hun
dred thousand pounds go to Fred
Ashland, and three-hundred thou
sand pounds are divided among his
throe children. The London chari
ties get a million; twentv-thousand
pounds go to the Staffordshire hospi
tals. and tho rest is distributed
amongst charitable institutions in
America. Are you contented now,
my dear?” he asked.
She threw her arms around his
neck and kissed him.
“Yes. darling, she said, with a
tear brimming in her big blue eyo.
“I am happy now—as happy as ever
I hope to bo in this wicked world.”

Steam Power In Bugsr Mil's.
Steam power ia being1 gradually
introduced into the sugar mills, but
the island of Barbadoes is still well
studded with windmills, which pleas

Indeed with so constant a power as
the trade wind, most of the work of
this favored land can be performed
almost free of oost. If you need
water you have only to sink a well
and erect a windmill over it. which
will keep your reservoir full. The
coral rock is so porous that there is
no such tning as a river in the
whole island. The whole rainfall
sinks through the soil to form un
derground streams, which discharge
their copious floods below the sur
face of the sea.
A Cure for Hattlesnsko Bite.
A cure of rattlesnake bite by the
ohicken remedy is reported from
Madison county, Georgia, and the in
cident has recalled other like cures in
that region in times past. The rem
edy is to kill a chicken and apply the
flesh as quickly as possible to the
wound; the poison, it is assumed, is
absorbed by the cbicken flesh. The
patient in this instance was badly
bitten, but suffered little inconven
ience and was soon quite well.
There is a belief in Georgia that if
the snake inflicting the wound is
caught and killed and its flesh sim
ilarly applied a cure will surely re

him, this disgrace,” said the old lady ;
“but he will have the consolation of

How Mexicans Get Cool Water.
The Mexicans do not use ice, but
nevertheless there is no country
where a man can get a glass of cool,
sweet water quicker than in Mexico.
The water jars are made of porous
pottery which allows the water to
oozo out through the material of the
tanks and the evaporation keeps it
always cool. It is not cold like our
ice water, but it is all the better on
that account, as a man can drink
twice as much and never feel in the
least injured, no matter how large
his draughts.

Du °f Llnil on Land.
Theo. B. Terry of Ohio hia lately
been in Pennsylvania holding insti
tutes. In that state lime is more need
as a fertilizer than in any other, many
farmers who have lime-stone land
burning large quantities every year.
Of course Mr. Terry heard much about
lime in his talks with farmers, and he
writes in the “Practical Farmer” about
this subject, as discussed by Rev. I. S.
t rain of Clearfield and others. When
Mr. Frain began using lime he experi
mented so as to find out just what
quantity be should apply per acre on
his farm. He had asked some one who
used it, and they said put on 100 bush
els; others said 200, and some told him
this amount would ruin his land and
crops, that he should only put on 40
or 50 bushels. Well, he applied 25
bushels on an acre for wheat, and 50
on aqother acre, 75 on a third, and so
on up to 300 bushels. . The 300 bushels
proved too much for the wheat, but
did not injure the land permanently.
He concluded that the best results
came where he applied 150 bushels per
acre, measured alter it was siacKeu.
Now what were the results? Forty
bushels of good plump wheat per acre
on all the land right through that he
experimented on, on the average. His
last crop had been seven bushels.
He had raised as high as twelve.
Next he put in fifty acres of wheat
on land where he had applied
150 bushels per acre of lime right
through on all of it. Result, 1,735
bushels of wheat that weighed 64
pounds to the measured bushel. Mr.
Frain soon paid for his farm and
bought another, and he told us that if
he had not used some money to buv
blooded stock, he could now pay all up
for the second farm. He said that now
nearly every farmer within three miles
of him was burning and spreading
lime. He has limestone on his land.
It is limestone soil. He does not be
lieve in drawing out the lime and put
ting it in small piles, as is frequently
done with both lime and manure. You
get too much where the pile is, and can
never afterward spread it as evenly as
you could right from the wagon. He
spreads with a manure spreader,
with a lime hood on, to prevent the
wind from blowing it all over. This
hood comes down within six inches or
so of the ground. The lime is put in a
great pile, thousands of bushels of it.
Be said he had a large pile that had
stood since May. As it slacks on the
outside he draws it away and spreads
it. Mr. F. says always put it on the
surface, as it will work down fast
enough, that is, spread it on land
after plowing, and not just before
plowing, so it will be plowed down.
The practice which he particularly ad
vised, however, was to put the lime on
young clover (same as I do manure).
When asked whether he would apply
manure in connection with it he re
plied, “No, never.” Put the manure
on some other time. He said that it
would do very well to put lime on sod
in the fall, and plow the next spring;
The lime would then work down
through the soil before plowing, and
so would not be turned down when
one plowed, but every time he re
peated that the best results would
come from putting on young clover.
Nearly all farmers here agree that it
is useless to put lime on bare, run
down, poor land. There should be a
sod or some vegetable matter plowed
down with it. Mr. Davis said he had
thrown away hundreds of dollars
worth of clover seed, trying to make
something out of clover before he be
gan liming, Plow under a good sod,
spread lime, harrow, sow wheat and
clover seed, and then it would grow.
He uses only about 40 to 50 bushels per
acre of slacked lime. This gives him
the desired result. Perhaps it will not
last as long as 150 bushels per acre,
but he thinks better to put on less and
more often, if necessary.—Farmers'Re
view.
Potato Cultivation.
It may, we think, be safely asserted
that among the crops grown upon the
average western farm the potato is the
most haphazard as to results. Some
years when fall comes the potato field
discloses a rich harvest of plump tub
ers. Again there iB glorious promise
of a full crop; the “vines” grow rank
and green, the stems are thick and
healthy, but behold! when the crop is
lifted it proves a disappointing assort
ment of little undeveloped tubers or
scabby potatoes. As a general rule
the good potato crop is a result of
proper season and newly turned clover
sod rather than the farmer's skill or
attention; but there seems no good
reason why at least a profitable
crop of tubers should not be grown
every year by every farmer, floods and
frosts, of course, excepted. We are
aware that this is somewhat hard on
the farmer, but we speak from experi
ence and know that the assertion is not
exaggeration. Let us see what is the
method of potato cultivation usually
practiced by the farmer that does not
make a specialty of the business. With
such men the potato is raised for fam
ily use only and so—as with the case
with the kitchen garden unless “the
woman” attends to it—the potatoes are
planted after the other crops are got
into the land in good season and shape.
Very often the potatoes are planted
upon the headland of the com
field after it has been pretty well
compacted by the feet of horses.
Then the tubers are planted in hills as
far apart as the corn hills and ten
chances to one the half of them are
either obliterated or retarded by the
trampling of horses when turning upon
the headland or are left a prey to the
festive potato bug. We have seen fair
crops of potatoes produced in this way,
but more often we have seen much
land wasted and but poor returns in
crop. This is one common way of rais
ing the family supply of potatoes, so
that it is little wonder that the statis
tics place the averige farm production
of potatoes at such a low figure. But
there is another common way of grow
ing potatoes “down on the form’' and
it Is no better to say the least of it
We refer to the plan of plowing land
in spring and planting the sets in the
side of a furrow, then turning a fur
row on top. It is expected that the
horses will not tramp upon any of the
“sets;” it is also expected that they
will not kick any of the seed out of
place, but the expectations do not pan
out well and we find that a most un
even crop results. In one part
of the row the plants are
crowded too much, while in
others the plants are too far
apart to bo economical. But this is
not the only trouble, for we must un
derstand that the tuber is burled
deep in some places, too shallow in
others, and here and there lies with
an immense hard clod resting' heavily
upon it vet needing to be penetrated
before the tender sprouts can see day
light. In short it is simply impossible
to plant potatoes evenly in this way, nor
is ft possible to supply them with the
mellow deep bed. of friable loam in
which they most delight and succeed.
This is, of course,most true of potatoes
planted upon spring-plowed sod, but is
also more or less true of even
spring plowed corn or stubble land.
Years ago, when the land was very
rich, the potato would succeed fairly
well under almost any circumstances,
but times and conditions are changed
since then, and now potatoes can only
be profitably grown where the best
possible conditions are furnished. In
a few words, it may be stated that the
actual necessities required for success
ful potato culture are as follows: 1.
Pure, hardy, strong seed, suited to the
district. 3. Rich, mellow, warm, well
drained soil, not newly manured. 3.
Abundant moisture, retained by con
stant surf ace culture. 4. Careful destruc
tion of insect pests. 5. Spraying in
districts where disease of the vines has
appeared.—Banners’ Review.
A Future Wheat Era.
The world will probably have swung
round its annual circuit of vastness
thirty or forty times before the era of
which we now speak shall have set in;
but the time will come when the peo
ple of the United States will be com
pelled to import as many millions of
bushels of wheat as they now export
in order to supply the wants of tneir
teeming millions, says Montreal
“Trade Bulletin.” At the present
ratio of increase in the population of
the United States, that country will
have stopped exporting wheat within
the next thirty or forty years, owing
to its augmented food requirements,
and the wants of the United Kingdom
will likewise have shown a tremendous
increase as well aB those of Germany
and. probably France within the same
period. It would not be at all surpris
ing if a great future war arose out
of rivalry l etween the great wheat con
suming nations, in their anxiety to se
cure the great outside wheat resources
of Asia, Africa and South . America,
and in view of the great food question
of the future England would be the
veriest madcap to dream of ever relin
quishing her hold on Egypt, as that
country is her only safe road to India,
which is destined to become the great
est wheat producing country in the
world.' Hindostan as a grower of
wheat in the future will be worth more
to England than “all the wealth of
Ormuz or of Ind” has been to her in
the past.
Growing Navy Boons. ,
If you are looking about for a new
money crop with which to experiment
next year, possibly with the view of
growing less wheat and more of some
other thing that pays better, let us
suggest that you try navy beans.
While this is a crop that can be grown
with some success even on indifferent
land,do not think that you must select
the worst field on your farm for it
Plow deep, manure heavily, and pul
verize thoroughly before putting in
the seed. A_ mistake is very often
made with this crop through putting
it in too soon. Some practice planting
at the same time as corn, but this is
too early, as it then ripens in very hot
weather and is apt to suffer severely
from the weevil. They should not be
planted until the middle or latter
part of June, and this time has the
additional advantage of not intruding
upon the planting time of the other
crops. They should have good culti
vation as soon as up. and then con
tinuously until the pods begin to form,
but not after that, as there is then
danger that the soil will discolor the
beans. They may be cut with a
mower, though some prefer hand pull
ing. The harvesting should be done
as quickly as possible after the crop is
ripe, as exposure to rains will soon de
preciate its value. The threshing may
be done by machine, or by hand if the
crop is small. With the same land and
the same cultivation the crop should
be nearly as large as the wheat yield
would be, and one has but to compare
the market reports to see which is the
more profitable.
Scabby Potatoes.
Last spring’ & few Early Rose pota
toes were planted in the garden nere,
near where potatoes were planted last
Tear, and where a quantity of fresh
horse manure was applied this year,
says J. S. Tibbetts in ‘‘Michigan
Farmer.” A small handful of strong,
wood ashes was put into each hill be
fore the seed was dropped in. There
was a good yield of large, smooth
potatoes, free from scab. Some forty
rods distant Snow Flakes were planted
on ground where no potatoes had ever
been planted before, nor any very near
them. No manure was applied, nor
any ashes, and yet the potatoes are
▼ery scabby. The men who dug the
potatoes say there were lots of potato
bugs in the hills sticking to the pota
toes, where no ashes was (or were,
which is it?) applied, while none were
aeen where the ashes had been applied.
Now, whether the bugs are the cause of
the scab, as they believe, may be an
open .question; but there can be no
question as to the value of wood
ashes for the potato. Let the potato
growers try the ash remedy another
year and report results; but be sure to
keep the weeds and bugs out.
Demahd fob Wheat.—The European
wheat demand is still of that negative
sort that turned away from this coun
try by the offerings of cheaper wheat
from other exporting countries. The
result is that the present market is of
that discouraged sort quite common in
February. The discouragements and
low prices are companions now as al
ways. People are inquiring why thero
should be discouragement to investors
at these low figures now prevailing.
When wheat is below the cost of pro
duction it would not seem that the su
perabundance should enter so largely
into the calculation, but it is now as
always, a powerful element in the cal
culation. Fears possess the minds of
