An Illinois legislator has brilliant
idea in r?irard to the binding twine trust
which has recently been organized to
bleed the farmers. Ilia plan is to set
the prisoners confined in the state peni
tentiary at work manufacturing binding
twine. The law of Illinois provides th.it
convicts . shall manufacture nothing
which comes in competition with outside
labor, but this legislator "cms to think
this plan would be a juatifi -ible evasion
of the law, in which he is doubtless cor
rect. The binding twine trust must go.
Lincoln Journal.
Tub whiskv sheet in the basement of
Sherwood's block grows indignant that
Tin? Herald should ascribe the Dutton
defeat to the eight rum shops of Plutts
mouth. It's a fact all the same and the
Third ward is to be congratulated that
it does not contain either a saloon or tlu
editor of the saloon organ. Of tho two
evils the saloon would probably he the
least. Its assault upon Mr. Dutton is as
false and dirty as its pretension that
whisky did not run our city on election
day. However, on the editorial page of
the same issue, the Journal man in utter
disregard of his utterance on the other
side of the sheet, ascribes democratic suc
cess in the several cities in Nebraska
last Tuesday to the dram shop-copjinir
the Omaha Herald article boasting that
the anti submissionists carried the day.
The salocn organ is in the soup on the
whiskey question and it only makes the

The April number of Table Talk con
tains much that is fitted to the season,
and much tl.at will console and refresh
the body at well as the mind. In these
respects the magazine never seems to be
at a loss. It mixes the lit-rary and the
gastronomic in a very pleasant confusion.
"We have nerer had much of a hankering
after sandwitches made up of alternate
slices of ham and literature, but Table
Talk does it in such a palatable way
that we are in the habit of swallowing
them quickly, and eagerly wait for the
roll of the month to bring us some more.
The success of Table Talk has been re
markable, and the secret of that success
lies, no doubt, in the tact it has shown
in thus serving the dainties of the table
with a literary sauce. The practical aid
it gives to the housewife, through Mrs.
Rorer's teachings, is another factor in its
success, and one that ought to push it on
until no household in the country is with
out its monthly presence. Published by

The Mormon question cuts a large
figure in the selection of territorial of
ficers for Utah. The vigorous prosecu
tion of polygamists prevailing when the
democrats came into power was practic
ally stopped by the appointment of
Judge Sanford as chief ju-tice of the ter
ritory. Convictions were few and sen
tences light. Cleveland exercised the
pardoning power freely and encouraged
the polygamists in the belief that the
law would soon be nullified by inaction.
This idea was dissipated by the govern
ment taking ch irga of Ziou's Co-opera-tire
institute, annulling the charters of
3Iormon corporators, and exercising
authority over the revenue of the church.
Taese facts, coupled, with the belief that
Judge Zinc will be reappointed to the
suprem; bench, convinces the most rad
ical Mormons that polygamy must soon
perish. One of the bishops and several
elders now enjoying the seclusion of the
penitentiary for promiscuous marriage,
confess that they ara weary of plural
wives, aid if released will cheerfully
obey the law. This feeling is Incoming
general among young and and old, high
and low, and foreshadows the esrlv
abandonment of polygamy in practice
nd preaching. IJee.

ARTIFICIAL FERTILIZERS.
Great Improvement in Them During the
J'mtt Thirty Year.
Among tho other titles to distinction
which tho Nineteenth century is hereaf
ter to an joy, ono will be found in the fact
that in that age agriculture first began
to bo pursued in a systematic manner
with the aid of scientific research. Ma
ii u ring with the products of the barn
yard is a very ancient art, but the resort
to the mino for fertilizers is substantially
an invention of our own times. Cliem
ists first told the farmer the cause of the
frequent speedy exhaustion in the grain
producing, powers of the. soil; it has
fallen to the geologist to 6how whence
may be obtained the phosphatic element
which is the most quickly exhausted of
all the elements of plant food in process
of cropping.
Although artificial fertilizers are prac
tically the invention of the last thirty
years, the industries connected with
their manufacture now demand a capital
of alxnit $100,000,000, with an annual
product of about that amount, and the
volume of the industries is increasing
more rapidly, perhaps, than any other
art which pertains to mining. The use
of artificial fertilizers grew out of the
trade in guano. These heaps of bird
dung were first made use of by the Peru
vians. The account of (larcilasco de la
Vega, published in 1C04, relates that the
Peruvians in tho Twelfth century used
guano led3 as a source of fertilizers. Of
such importance did they esteem the
material of these beds that the penalty
of death was imposed by the early Incas
upon any one found killing the birds
which made these precious deposits.
For many years the guano beds of the
western coast of South America and
other tsimilar deposits within the tropi
cal region supplied the demands of our
gardens. As the supply of these guanos
approached exhaustion and the price in
creased, tho skill of chemists and geolo
gists showed the manufacturers where
fo find and how to treat deposits of
mineral phosphates in such a manner
that they might substantially serve to re
place the manures of animal origin. In
bulletin No. 4G, of the United States
ireoloprieal survey. Dr. R. A. F. Penrose,
Jr., now assistant state geologist of
Texas, has given an important treatise
on phosphate deposits, and although his
report mainly concerns the phosphates of
North America, it gives a synoptic ac
count of the known beds of this nature
in all nart3 of the world. The report
makes it plain that only a small part of
the deposits of this nature are yet known
to us.
Tho process of discovery of these val
uable resources is now, and for a long
timo will be, 6low, and thi3 for the rea
son that the material occurs in forms
which are unfamiliar to the public or
even to the ordinarily trained prospector
who seeks for mineral resources. In
most cases tho material appears either
in the form of greenish crystals or in the
shapo of nodular masses looking much
like claystones. In neither of these
shapes is it likely to attract general at
tention. In fact the great deposits at
Charleston. S. C,, had been in view for a
century or more. Concretions of cerne
phosphate w ere dug up in the ditches of
the i ice fields and condemned as worth
less until after the war, when a native
chemist, once a man of fortune, but
brought to need by tho havoc Vrought
upon that country during the relellion,
groping about to find some means of
mending his resources, analyzed tho re
jected 6tones. As the result of his in
quiry they became the very foundation
of tho commercial prosperity in his state.

Curiosities of Natural Gas.
One writer asks whether it is safe to
bore the earth too much. He assumes
tho earth to be a hollow sphere filled
with a gaseous Bubstance called by us
natural gas, and he thinks that; tapping
these reservoirs will cause disastrous ex
plosions, resulting from the lighted gas
coming in contact with that which is
escaping. Earthquakes, he 6ays, are
probably caused by vacuums created by
the outflowing gas. He compares the
earth to a balloon floated and kept dis
tended by the gas in the interior, whjcji,
if exhausted, will cause the crust to col
lapse, affect the motion of the earth in
its orbit, cause it to lose its place among
tho heavenly bodies, and falls in pieces.
Another writer thinks that boring
should be prohibited by stringent laws.
Lie, too, thinks there is a possibility of
an explosion, though from another cause.
Should such a disaster occur. '"the coun
try along the gas belt from Toledo
through Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky
will lo ripped up to the depth of twelve
or fifteen hundred feet, and flopped over
like a pancake, leaving a chasm through
which the waters of Lake Erie will come
howling down, filling the Ohio and Mis
sissippi valleys, and blotting them out
forever."
Still another theorist has investigated
tho gas wells with telephones and deli
cate thermometers and ho announces
startling discoveries. lie distinguished
sounds like the boiling of rocks, and es
timated that a milo aud a half or so be
neath Findlay the temperature of the
earth is 3,500 degs. This scientist says !
an immense cavity exists under Findlay, j
and that here the gas is stored; that a
mile It-low tho bottom of tho cavity is a
ruas3 of roaring, seething flame, which
is gradually eating into the rocky floor
of the cavern and tliinning it. Event
ually the flames will reach the gas, a
terrific explosion will ensue, and Findlay !
and its neighborhood will be blown sky
ward in an instant. Such are some of
the theories gravely propounded in re
spect to this new f uel.- Prof essor Joseph

A physician of this city received the
following letter recently: MDear Sir To
day is Wednesday. I have freckles, and
am going to a party Saturday. Send me
something that will remove them by
then, and oblige, Miss Mary Gall." The
doctor thought the signature correspon
ded well with the request, and sent the
young lady his regrets, "to be taken be

You say that you do not think that a
dog has intelligence? Well, you are
wrong, ami if you bail i-en up around
' the corner of Suite and Twenty-ninth
streets the other morning you would
have acknowledged that you are wrong.
Up in that neighborhood, on ono of the
fashionable avenues, there lives a lady
who does her marketing over on State
street. Her pet is a pretty little white
poodle dog which she keeps immaculately
clean. This dog is a dainty little crea
ture, as white as the proverbial driven
snow, and always with a delicate pink
or blue ribbon adorning his neck. Well,
the lady went to market on the morning
in question and the dog was with her.
The streets were very muddy and sloppy
and the poodle did some very artistic
work in picking his way across the
streets and avoiding puddles. As he
crossed State street at the heels of his so
licitous mistress his finicky actions were
jealously watched by a yellow mongrel
who eyed him from the further corner.
This cur glared at him until he disap
peared in the corner grocery. Then he
turned tail, took to his heels and disap
peared down the alley back of Dearborn
street.
In a few minutes the mongrel cur re
turned to the corner. He was accom
panied by a half dozen dogs, who looked
fully as tough as he did. The crowd took
up a position in a group near the curb
stone and apparently eyed the grocery
across the way very closely. Pretty soon
the dainty poodle and his fond mistress
came out and started across the street,
the dog skipping puddles artistically.
Just about as he reached the middle of
the street the signal was given. The
group of curs bounded into the muddy
street and made a bee line for the poodle.
The largest dog took the lead and caught
the pet amidships. He did not attempt
to bite him just knocked him about ten
feet through the mud, amid the wails of
his mistress. Every cur in the crowd
took occasion to trample on the poodle
with muddy feet, and then they gathered
on the opposite curb in a crowd, looked
back at their victim and appeared to
laugh. The victim was covered with
mud and looked as though some one had
washed windows with him. And the
big mongrel who put up the job looked
at his co-conspirators and appeared to
say: "Well, wo did that gay duck up in
fine shape, and I guess we've taught him
not to bo so gallus hereafter." Dogs are
intelligent there is no question about
that. Chicago Herald.
The Lawn.
The artistic arrangement of the lawn
is, to the owner of every country place,
a matter of the first importance, or
should be. Time was when flower beds
plentifully besprinkled its green surface
and made of even the smallest plat a
very garden of brilliant coloring, at
tracting the eye of every beholder. Eut
the fashions change here as elsewhere,
and behold, now the popular taste would
point toward the larger expanse of green
with its modicum of shrub and tree,
while the old time flower bed and its oc
cupants smile at you through the garden
fence.
Caro should be taken to have a firm,
beautiful sod in the first place, to which
end a thorough preparation is essential,
and, whether it is to bo sodded or sown,
frequent top dressing will insure its con
tinued beauty, especially if cut close anu
often.
As to the arrangement, a continuous
variety in form, color and expression
would lend themselves to the eye and
hand of the true lover of artistic beauty.
Here a certain species of tree, dainty and
delicate in nature, yet perfectly hardy,
would form a beautiful mass when
grouped, like the dwarf arbor vitaa and
Irish juniper, while there are for separ
ate planting the varieties of Norway
spruce, white spruce and hemlock, the
larger varieties to be kept within bounds
by cutting back, while the dwarfish kinds
may follow their will. Vick s Magazine.
Eating Dog
The story of Minister Cushing's experi
ence at the table of the wealthy Chinese
mandarin, and how, pointing to a partic
ularly appetizing looking dish, he re
marked in inquiring tones, "Quack,
quack?" only to receive the astounding
response, "Bow-wow I is familiar to
every one. But the first genuine case of
a free born American electing to eat a
piece of man's humble friend is related
in tho following true story:
Little Brent is a young hopeful of Ken-tuckj-
ancestry who has spent his less
than three years in one of the suburbs of
Cincinnati, and has not that familiarity
with the country which would make
him familiar with all the domestic ani
mals. Being recently on a visit to the ances
tral home in Bourbon county, Ky., he
was for the first time introduced to that
luxury, a roasted sucking pig, whole,
with a roasted apple in its mouth and a
blue ribbon decking out its tail. It was
supper, and the young man not being
permitted to have meat for his supper,
looked with longing but hopeless eyes on
the delicious vision. At last he turned
to-an aunt and said, with yearning tones:
"Aunt Belle, is it dinner or supper?"
Being assured that it was supper, he
braced himself for a last appeal, saying
6toutly: "Well. J think I will fiaye a pit
of the dog, anyhow." Youth's Com

A Woman's Invention for the Blind.
Mile. Mulot, of Angers, has invented a
method by which the blind can easily
correspond with those who 6ee. The in
vention is, therefore, a marked improve

ters, by which jwrsons afilicted with loss
of sight correspond with each other only.
jllle. Mulot's apparatus is really a little
printing press in a portfolio about the
size of a slieet of note paper. The blind
crson spreads it out and impresses the
k-lters required on white paper, under
.. iiich there is a colored pad which gives
them a blue appearance, and they are
thus not only brought out in relief for
viiij touch of those deprived of sight, but
are also visible to the eyes of those who
see. One of Mile. Mulot's blind 'pupils

A Prophecy Fulfilled.
If Carlyle predicted as far back as
1863 the greatness of Bismarck, his wife
is to be credited with prophetic instinct
in forecasting tho baseness and ignominy
of Pigott. In her diary, under date of
April 27. 1845, occurs this entry: "Young
Sir. Pigott will rise to be a Robespierre
of some sort. He will cause many heads
to be removed from the shoulders they
belong to, and will eventually have bis
own head removed from his own shoul
ders. As an Instance pf successful
prophecy that passage is certainly ?e-
markable. If Pigott failed to become a
Robespierre of any recognized type for
Robespierre can be anything the biogra
pher or historian chooses to make of
him he certainly has cut off more heads

A good story is told about one of the
Maine Central engineers, says The 3an
gor Commercial Last summer wheq
the Vanderbilt car was at Bar Harbor
the manager of the Maine Central sent
an engine down there to take the car to
Portland. The run was made in very
quick time, and at Brunswick the train
stopped to take on water. While there
Mr. Vanderbilt got out and said to the
engineer that he didn't want him to drive
so fast. The engineer, the veteran Simp
son, looked at him for a quarter of a
minute, and then said: "I am running
this train under orders from Pay son
Tucker to be in Portland at I K)7. If ypu
want to stop here, all right. If you want
to go to Portland, get in." He got in.
