Dns MOIXES , Ia.'Mnrch fll. [ Special to
Tun Unn.J The Iowa stnto board of health
lias two hobbles contagious diseases and
Iccroscno oil. When It isn't ' busy devising
BOtno schema to head oil diphtheria , scarlet
forer , ota , It Is studying the matter of Il
luminating oils , how to giro the people as
surance that their oil Is safe , and how to use
it properly after they got It. The assistant
secretary of tlio board , Mr. L. P. Andrews ,
Is the bright particular genius who docs the
niot of this pro bono publico businessnnd ho
, docs It well. Ho takes special dollght In In
vestigating and experimenting upon the
different properties of the subject before
him , and his conclusions nro after very valu
able and of great public service : For several
months ho has boon studying the lamp prob
lem. A great many complaints conlo to the
oWco that Inferior Iccroscno was being sold
through the stnlo. As there Is a very mid
system of oil Inspection carried on under the
direction of the board of health , ho became
satisfied that the trouble was not so much
With the oil as with the way In which It wus
being used. So ho procured u largo number
of burners , lamps nml wlchs of different
varieties , and a supply of oil of *
different qualities , and niaito some
thorough tests. His conclusion Is that
the most of the trouble complained
of arises from the improper use of oil , ana
not from its qnallty. The results of his In
vestigation have boon embodied In n circular
which Is soon to bo issued by the board for
public Information , Ho discusses llrst the
different kinds of oil , and shows what is best
according to the Iowa standard. This is
n kcroscno that , when heated to 103 degrees
Fahrenheit , will not throw off n vnpor which
will ignlto when brought in contact with n
llame or lighted match. That Is what is
known as the Iowa flash test , and Is the only
test which "goes" In this state. The nro
test , as it is sometimes called , indicating the
degree of heat at which oil placed In an open
vessel will ignlto and burn without the aid ol
n wick , is not recognized by the lowastatutc ,
nnd if branded nil ever a barrel of oil will do
110 good. Oil having a Hashing point of 105
degrees to 110 degrees will give butter Illu
mination , burn freer nnd with greater satis
faction In ordinary lamps than an oil with a
flashing point of 120 degrees or 125 degrees.
The higher the Hashing point the denser nnd
heavier the oil , and consequently the more
sluggish is the capillary action.
Having settled the oil question , the circu
lar passes with lamps ana makes some help
ful suggestions about them. It recommends
that they bo of metal with no feeding plnco
except for the wick lube. The bowl should
bo large In diameter and shallow , not exceed
ing two and one half Inches in depth , so as to
bring the llamo as near the oil as possible , to
secure an oven combustion of the contents.
With deep lamps the wlclc will fall to ralso
the oil when half consumed nnd imperfect
Illumination will bo the result. The lamps
should bo lllled nnd cleaned every day , and
once each week bo entirely emptied of the
contents , to roniovo the dregs and sediment.
This will onublo the vnnor whicti forms ever
a half lllled lam ) ) to pass away safely. The
circular especially cautions the public against
leaving n lamp burning with the wlclc turned
down. Air currents nro liable to cause the
chimney to break. The wick tube will then
bccoino greatly heated and the lamp will bo
filled with n dangerous vapor. A burning
lamp with n broken chimney becomes liable
to explosion in about llfteon minutes.
Some general suggestions are made as to
the style of burners which will secure best
results. The burner , suya the circular ,
should bo adapted to the oil to bo used ,
whether heavy or light. It should bo properly
constructed for draft and ventilation for the
escape of vapor from the vapor chamber of
the lamp. Burners should bo kept perfectly
clean und frco from crustntion on the wick
tube , nnd accumulation of chared wick on
the perforated disk. The vent tube along
the wick tube should bo kept open and clean ,
ns It Is the safety valve of the lama
Gummed nnd clogged burners can bo easily
cleaned by boiling n few moments in sal-soda
or concentrated lye and water. A great
many other suggestions as to lamps , oil , nnd
things pertaining thereto , nro tnado in this
circular. They are very useful and valuable ,
nnd if the people of Jown , for whom they
nro principally intended , will carefully ob
serve them , lamp explosions will bo almost
unknown , and everybody will get bettor
light ana nioro of It.
The "Q" rtntroncliniQnt.
BuiiUNOTOji , la. , March 31. [ Special to
nn HBK. ] The work of retrenchment has
actively been entered upon by the Chicago ,
Burlington & Qulncy management , and will
bo extended where a dollar can bo saved.
On April 1 all shopmen , trackmen , bridge
carpenters , nnd other laborers with whjm
ton hours now constitute a day's labor , will
bo cut down to eight hours a day , equivalent
to a SO per cent reduction of pay , and all
such employes whose services are not de
manded by the most rigid necessity , will bo
dismissed. Not loss than 250 men will bo
thrown out of employment in Iowa alone ,
whllo an equal number , probably , will bo
displaced in Illinois , with proportionate re-
ductlonS'lnMissouri nnd the west. The two
mam line passojigor trains which were to
imvo been taken oft on Sundays. commune-
Ingu week ago , but which worn then contin
ued , will positively bo abandoned upon that
flay , ono being cm off this evening and both
! of them every Sunday from now on. This
reduction nlono will curtail the train service
' a thousand miles u week. Two moro pas-
Bongcr trulns , now doing a local business be
tween this city nnd Creiton on week days ,
will Do degraded to mixed or accommoda
tion trains , run on slow tlmo nnd made to
earn tholr wny , Instead of being run on ex
pense , as they now are The end has not
yet been reached , us the management is en
deavoring , if possible , to keep expenses
Within the limit of tbo receipts as jlxed by
the lowii commlsslonora. A reduction of
clerical force will probably coma before
lone , though not positively announced an yet.
Tlio Now Cltlnf Jumlco.
DM MOINES , la. , March 31. [ Special to
TUB UBK. ] A pleasant little incident con
nected with Judge Olvcn's promotion from
the 'district bench of this county to the supreme
premo bench , was the presentation to hint of
'tho chair which lie used fterc for nine years
| n the court room of this city. At the sug
gestion of the local bar the board of supcr-
tvlsors made him u present of the chair and
Jput a suitable silver pinto upon It with nn
appropriate subscription , showing that he
began to sit in that chair in ISbO as Judpc of
the circuit court , Ho served until the cir
cuit court was merged Into the district
court , und then in .1837 was placed upon the
( Hstrict bench , where ho retained the same
chair ho bad used so long. Ho now has it at
bis homo. As a chair it is not very much of
n affair , but ns an heirloom it will com'
Hiand a great value In the Given family.
Iho now chief luutico is tillIng hold of his
Ivorlc very ( Irmly. He goes to the cupitol
twice a day and puts In several hours hard
work In catching up with tao delayed busl-
Bats of the court.
Tlio Kennedy Case.
DM MOINES , la. , March SI. [ Special to
titB Bee. ] The Kennedy ca&o ut Uubuque
tlH tianga tire. Ills attorneys tbmkihst his
tentunce is to bo commuted to Imprisonment
for life. Hut tbo governor denies that be
fens made any promlso to that effect. Rome
amunderatundlng uroso over the governor's
recent vialt to Dubuquo. The attorney for
[ \onnedy wrote the governor asking for a
netting to confer in regard to the case ,
fho governor delegated lila private scoretnry
o lUtcn to any proposition that might be
mile , but did not give any assurance that
lie re < juot for oonunuutioc would be
granted. It Is thought that if the Attorneys
for Kennedy sea that they are not cromg to
succeed with the governor , they will ripply
to the supreme court for a rehearing , ana the
legal formations connected u'lth the applica
tion will carry the case past the expiration
of Governor Lnrrnboo's term , nnd then they
may have a chnnco at n now governor. So it
is likely to bo some tlmo before the Kennedy
case is settled.
Interesting Meetings In i'rospcot.
DRS MOINES , la , , March 31. [ Special to
Tun HBB.J Much Interest Is being foil in
southwestern lown In the mooting of the
Uluo Grass league , which 19 to bo hold nt
Creston , April 10. . Adams , Adalr , Appo-
DOOSO , Claclc , Cass , Dccatuor , Fremont ,
Lucas , Madison , Montgomery , Mills , Page ,
I'ottnwnttnmlc , Taylor , Union , Warren nnd
Wayne counties nro especially urged to send

is to continue the advantages of soil , climate ,
water nnd natural resources In these coun
ties , where Iho blue grass especially flour
ishes.
Another meeting next month of state Inter
est Is the Grand Army encampment at IJur-
llugton , April 0. The attendance promises
to bo unusually largo and the citizens of Uur-
llngton nro making preparations for a very
hbspitublo reception. The governor nnd
most of the state ofllcers will probably at

A I'opulnr Idea.
DES MOIN-ES , In. , March 31. [ Special to
Tun Unn.J Tno Idea of hnvmg the old sol-
glers ptosout flags for the school boys to
chorlsh is proving n very jwpular ono. It
began at Mt. Pleasant , whim the Grand
Army post there gave n flag to the high
school. .Tho practice has boon repeated In
sovorul cities. The members of the Crocker
post G. A. U. , and the Crocker Women's '
Iteliof Corps of this city , have just decided
to present u flag to the pupils of the now
high school. Tlio building is not quito fin
ished , but when the dedication takes place
ouo prominent fcaturo will bo the prcsontn-
tlon of a regulation United States flag to the
young Americans who uro fast coming on to
take the place ot the veterans who ere as
rnpldly passing away.
A Curious Suit.
Dns MoiNns , In. , March 31. [ Special to
THE BEE , ] A rather curious case la pending
m the district court of this county , nnd will
bo heard next month. Sarah Freed asks the
court to dissolve her inamago with Abra
ham Lincoln Cox , for the reason that is null
and void. The question arises if It is null
and void , why is the court naked to dissolve
It. The explanation Is that Sarah committed
matrimony the sucond tlmo , supposing that
her llrst husband was dead. But like Enoch
Arden , ho turned up , nnd unlike Enoch , ho
was not willing logo oway ngain nnd give
Iso. 3 the right of w.vv. So Mrs. Freed de
sires to have the second marrlago formally
dissolved ni a protection against a tconicnl
charge of bigamy.
Tlio Des Molncs Call Club.
Dns MOINES , la. , March 81. [ Special to
Tin : Bee. ] The members of the Dos Molnos
base ball club are expected to assemble here
in a few days. Another player has recently
been signed , Fred M. Tildon , who will guard
center field. Ho is a Harvard man , and was
n great ball player whllo In college , loading
the entire league in batting. Ho lives in
Chicago nnd played last year with ono of
the city league teams there. Ho has refused
heretofore to Join a professional term , but
bos finally consented to como to Dos Molnes.
The club will have now uniforms this season ,
quite novel nnd neat. The suite will bo
black tighUltting-jorst-ys with dark red
trimmings.

SHE KISSED HIM.
How Mine. Fnrsoli-Mnai Expressed
Her Gratitude to Her Lawyer.
Mmo. Fursch-Mndi puvo Lawor Abe
Hummel two smacking- kisses at , the close
of the trial of the singer's case against
Mrs. Thurbor mm the other members
of the National Conservatory of Amer
ica , in which the well known lawyer
made nn argument tliat won for the
plaintiff a verdict , for 810,000. Mmo.
Furach-ftlttdi had a contract to teach the
American Jenny Linda "budding Pat-
tis , " Lawyer Hummel called them two
years nt 810,000 n year. After the first
year there was a misunderstanding , and
Mrs , Thurbor discharged the madame
on the charge that she was inducing
tlixs pupils to take private lessons from
her. The school wns abandoned , and
the teacher gave many of the old pupils
private lessons.
In the suit to-day an attempt was
made to show that Mine. Fursoh-Madi
had induced the young woman to leave
the school und take lessons from her ,
but the jury did not behove that per
tion was sustained by the testimony.
The jury gave a verdict of $10,000 and
$1,100 interest in favor of Mmo. Fursoh-
Madi. She wns overjoyed. As little
Lawyer Hummel , counsel , pushed his
way out of the court room Mine. Furseh-
Madi placed her arm around his nock
and thanked him for his services , toll
ing him ho had made a marvelous ad
dress to the jury , and that he speaks as
well as she sings. She called him endearing -
dearing names. When the swinging
doors of the court-room closed bohinu
thorn she seized him in her arms , hoi-
rosy bprf puckered , una she planted a
smacking kiss on his loft cheek. It
popped like n. champagne cork. It
takes a good deal to disconcert Mr.
Hummel. Ho calmly turned the other
cheek and she , still clinging to him ,
placed a warm , lingering kiss upon it.
The little lawyer arranged his coat col
lar and remarked as ho loft the build
ing : "They all do it. "

A ROMANCE IN ' OIL.
An Income of Klvn Dollars a Mliiiito
'Flint Did Not haat.
The deatli of Mrs. .lames S. McCary ,
at this plncow recalls .an interesting
reminiscence of the oil region , says a
Franklin ( Ponn. ) special to the Phila
delphia Record. The McCrnya owned n
small farm on top of Oil ( JrocK hill ,
near Petroleum Center , Venungo county ,
for which they paid $2,000. In October ,
1870 , Kocfor & Watson struck a flowing'
oil well on lands adjoining It , and Me-
Cray's farm was nt once in the market
as oil property. Ho leased the farm in
small lots nt $1,000 nu acre bonus and
half the oil. In a short time the furm
was producing 2,700 barrels of oil n day ,
nnd oil nt that time was worth $5 n tmr-
risl. McGrao's share of this production
gave him an income of 95 a. mfnnto.
night arid drvy. lie was offered SoOO-
000 for his farm but would not accept it ,
lie did not soil his oil as fast as pro
duced , but built iron tanks and stored
it for a still higher price. Ho wns of
fered another ioOO,000 cash for liis 1W-
000 barrels ho had in tanks , but minted
an oven 85 n barrel. Tlio market soon
afterward dropped much below this fig
ure , nnd u largo part of McCray's oil
was destroyed by lightning. Some of it
leaked and run into the creek , and ho
gold what was loft for 81 n barrel. Mc-
C'ray hits been the victim of many
shurpnra , but ho liiw still enough of his
bonanza fortune left to live at his ease.
Ho iti now an old man , nnd the death of
Ills wife loaves him alone.

DOUGLAS COUNTY'S STATESMEN.
They Arrive Homo nml Toll of the
Work of the Session Some
Good legislation
Accomplished.
Hon. TMohnrrl Berlin Talk * .
"Thank Oed the legislature is over , " said
Hon. Hlchard Uorllu yesterday afternoon to
n reporter for Tun UEB. "I feel somewhat
tired nnd am now homo for n rest. I am
glad that wo are through with the session ,
although I formed many close attachments
whllo In the Capital city.Vo bad n love-
feast last night , nnd 'when the boys shook
hands to depart for their respective homos
there was an expression of rcirrot that came
over tholr countenances. They hated to
part. fl
"Perhaps It would have been better to the
state nnd city had wo never met , on account
of the submission question. The submission-
ists have a little the best of us , considering
the moral sldo of the question , but when the
electors are to determine whether It will bo
prohibition or high license , I think the pro-
bibs will bo defeated. From 5 business
point of view , Otnnhn can't stand submission.
'Thoro were several goods bills for Omaha
nnd Uouglas county passed while wo were In
session. Among them was ono for the al
lowing of non-resident nitons to hold prop
erty within the corporate limits of cities and
townsund ; also providing for the foreclos
ure of mortgaaoH by non-rcsklonts nnd
against them. This will got moro money
Into the town and help our city ,
"Another good measure wus the bill for
the establishment of n public park system in
Omaha. It is not oxnolly what is wanted ,
but I find in all legislation there is moro or
less compromise. I was glad 10 accept what
wo got , for God knows wo need a park sys
tem bad enough. The present measure Is a ,
good starter and is the foundation of a good
park system.
"I also consider the bill for divorcing the
liquor element from politics by the establish
ment of an excise board , n good ono. I un
derstand , however , that this Is not approved
by some of the liquor men , but 1 am confi
dent tliat the law will provo beneficial ana
will give satisfaction when put into effect.
For this wo nro Indebted to the Hon. Church
Howo. Ho worked hard for the passage of
the bill.
" \Vo got a measure through for a better
system of drawing Jurymen. It Is proposed
thereby to raUo the standard of jurors , and
I think It will bo n good thing. A bill was
also passed reducing the number of Justices
of the pcaco to six for Omnhn. Tbo bill was
Introduced by Hon. George O'Urlon and was
highly recommended by members of the
bar. This will put the justices in hot
ter standing and tholr ofllcos "will bo
more dlgnitlcd. Tbo county commissioners ,
by the passage of a bill , were empowered to
expend funds for the Improvement of roads
within the corporate ) limits. This is princi
pally intended to improve the streets to
Forest Lawn comotcry.
"I introduced a bill which I think will bo
a great ben oilt to employes residing in tills
state nnd working for corporations doing
business In this and other states. I found
that great impositions were being practiced
upon those kind of employes. Say , for In
stance , nn Omaha laborer was working for
the Union PnciJlo railroad company and
owed a small bill In Council Bluffs. The
creditor could otto him in nn lown court , get
judgment nnd garnlsheo his earnings without
the debtor knowing anything nbout it until
ho called for his week or mouth's wages , in
this way the exemption laws of Nebraska
wore evaded. This bill doesn't annul any
laws of this state , but it provides that all
snub claims must bo tried in Nebraska courts
when the employe is a resident of the state.
Thus ho is protected by the exemption law.
The bill passed nnd the governor gladly
signed it. There were 7.500 signers to the
petition requesting me to introduce the
measure.
"Tho session Was not so expensive as Wo
first thought it would bo. We got through
quite economically , nnd I think to the satis
faction of all , I want to say that I give
great credit to my colleagues , for they stood
by me and worked faithfully with mo on all
Important mutters. "
Captain Ijanis.
"Tbo senate adjourned at 2 o'clock Sunday
morning , " remarked Captain William IJams ,
in speaking of his return trip from Lincoln.
"It had been agreed upon to wind up at 11
o'clocic , but when it was found that wo could
not get through at that hour ono or two of
the senators sot the clock back and kept us
In session uptll 3 o'clock. Tills delay was
occasioned by tlio conference committees on
appropriation bills. The senate concurred in
the amendments of the conlcrcnco commit
tee , and its action was unanimously , . agreed
upon. All in nil , the senate- reduced the ap
propriations at least half a million dollars.
The session ban certainly been aii economical
and a good ono for the people of the state.
By cool , calm deliberation , considcrablo bad
legislation has boon avoided. What do I
consider the most Important legislation for
this cityl Well , there have been several
measures passed that will bo beneficial to
Omaha when they go Into effect. Of course
the city charter takes precedence , and slnco
its revision and amendments it Is ono of the
best , I think , that could have boon adopted.
There may bo some defects that were ovor-
lookea , but they will bo fow. The bills for
the excise board , the drawing of juries , the
reduction of Justices of the pcaco , authoriz
ing the county commissioners to expend
money from the road fund for the Improve
ment of roads loading into the city , estab
lishing a fund for the relief of disabled po
licemen , providing for the sale of property
confiscated by tlio police and its realization
to go Into the police fund , are all important
measures that have gene tlirobgh both
houses. The bill providing for a , city
cnnrter of the second class fet South
Omnhn Is a wlso pleco of legislation.
There nro other bills worthy of duo mention.
Ono for the condemnation of postofllco
grounds for the Omaha government build
ing , nnd for the condemnation of a tract'of
land , not exceeding 1,000 acres , in either
DouKlas , Washington or Snrpy counties , fern
n military fort. The bill allowing nonresident
dent aliens to acquire title to property nnd
hold it for a limited lout-til of tlmo is a far
reaching measure. The purpose of thin
legislation is to prevent the landlord system
in the state. It wlU maico cheaper money ,
nnd prevents largo English land syndicates
from gobbling up half of the lands within
the borders of the commonwealth. A good
bill was passed Saturday. It provides for
taxing Insurance companies on their benefits
o" tire premiums. The bill directing the
governor to deed the high school property to
tlio city on condition that the premises bo
forever used for school purposes , passed
the FCimto Saturday- und wont to the gov
ernor. Tlia state agreed to deed the promises
to the city hi 1SOO when David Uutlor was
governor , but ho neglected to make out the
instrument conveying the property to the
city. The ( rambling bill , of course , was not
passed , for the reason that a two-thirds vote
Wilt ruqulrc'l ( o suspend tlio rules to got it oft
the general Hie. Few members wanted1 teen
on record 1119 measure , but I would have
been In favor of getting It before the senate.
Tlio rounon that the bill passed the house
was that tlio members know that tbo gam
bling law wax a dead letter and that gamb
ling W4& being carried on without the stuto
deriving any tcvcnuo from it.
"l vuryililr.i ; wound up nicely. It was said

The nosslon of the logisluturo was an iui-

BACH.
A Wondcrnt'l Mnslcian Who \\na Not
f- Appreciated Until A Tier Ills Death.
The names of Bach nnd Hnndol throw
a Hood of glory over the eighteenth
century , says a writer in the Youth's
Companion. They were both horn in
1085 , Bach nt Eisenach , Handel at
Halle. But though Bach was twice at
Hallo , the two great masters never
mot. In a prosaic century these two
great men united in their own sphere
those tendencies of modern thought
which brought about the revolution
from the Italian art of Palestriun to the
music of the present day. But their
destinies were widely different.
Bach lived in poverty , Hnndol in
competence. Bach lived in retirement
und comparative obscurity , Handel ia
the hlnzo of publicity and fame. Han
del , during his own lifetime , enjoyed an
overwhelming popularity ; hut Bach ,
though ho has nlTcctcd quito ns deeply
the minds of modern composers , did not
begin to produce marked impression
till fifty yours after his dqath , and hut
for the influence of Moairt and Men
delssohn his muMc mlijHiossibly oven
have fallen intooblUg H .
It has been said Vfnaini that
"music owes to Bach P as great a
debt as u religion owes l Ht founder. "
Joluuin Sebastian Bach 3 ono of a
great family of musiciaus.ijllis father
early taught him the violifl and , what
wns moro important , inspired him with
those deep Protestant feelings of piety
which influenced ) i all his life. Un
happily , however , the boy was loft an
orphan nt the ago ; of ton , and became
dependent on his harsh and uncongenial
dluor brother , Johaun Ohristoph , who
was then organist at Ohrdruf.
The little Sobdstinn learned his ex
orcises with a iskill and perfectness
which gave his brother the extra trouble
of constantly supplying now ones , and ,
perhaps , also awoke his jealously.
Christoph possessed a manuscript
volume of music nfehich ho cons.ntly
studied , and whidh oSobastian longed to
possess ; but Chuibtoph sternly refused
to lend it. Thiiiprecious book was
locked up in a railed cupboard ; but the
little hand could ipass through the rails ,
nnd , when opportunity offered , Sebas
tian could not roaiit' tho- temptation to-
abstract the b'oon Riid copy It surrepti
tiously. '
* His progress , however , was vorv slow ,
ns ho could only work at in the evening -
ing , and sinco'ho was allowed no can
dles only on moonlight nights. Still ,
with heroic perseverance , snatching
his chances when ho could , ho was ahlo
in six months to copy out the inuoh-
coveted book. His task wns hardly
achieved , when his brother discovered
the hoy's bccrot , and , with cruel
tyranny , demanded the surrender of the
copy so laboriously mado. Sebastian
gave it up with tears , and saw it no
moro till the .yoar 1C98 , when ho wns
thirteen years old and his brother diod.
But the death of his brother throw
the young orphan upon the world.
Happily ho had a flue soprano voice ,
and trudging olT to Bunoburg with a
companion , ho got ari appointment as
chorister in the school of St. Michael.
His education was thus provided for ,
but his passion for music often made
him go on ! , oot to Hamburg to hour
Reinkon at S't. Catharine'- ) church , and
even to Cello to hoar the kudo's French
band.
One day when the hungry , foot-worn
boy was tramping all the long way
homo from Hamburg , and stopped be
fore an inn from which came the sav
ory odors of the dinner which ho could
not afford , a pitying stranger flung to
him out of the window two herrings'
heads. When lie picked them up nnd
opened thotn ho found in each n ducat ,
which enabled him to buy some food
and got home in less misery.
But the days of a chorister who de
pends on his voice uro doomed , and
when Bach's voice failed Jus outlook
would once moro have been very dark
Imd ho not been appointed violinist , at
the ago of eighteen , to the duke of Saxe-
Weimar.
In 1703 ho wns chosen organist at
Arnstadt. Living contentedly on less
than jCIO a year , ho continued his
studios , nnd during tlio wholeof. . his
long , uneventful life until , llko his
great contemporary , Handel , ho became -
came blind just before lus death he
devoted his whole powers to musical
composition. Ho obtained various
liumblo appointments as organist , and
lived in patriarchal eithplicity , always
struggling with poverty , but noble ,
modest and contentedo , the last.
His first wife wus t\lcn ; { from him by
a sudden death. HyQuarried again ,
ind hud thirteen children as his hccoiul
family. Though kinfrs And princes hon
ored him for his fniimis , ho seemed
never to have boon "passing rich" even
on so much as "forty pounds a year. "
Yet "Father Bach , " as ie was lovingly
called , was very liajjjfv. . Ills art and
Ills family wore the- two motives for
which ho lived. Outwardly , his life
was humble nnd immMificunt , hut in
wardly it wns riclMJiid , productive.
Maintaining to the lust Vie dalra dignity
jf his character , hp Ifko Button , believed -
liovod that "genius is patience. "
It was neuriy forty lyunrs after his
death that Mozart , leuriiig one of his
motets nt Leipzig , okHiiined } , "Thank
God ! lyaro is somothmgpovr , und I learn
something. " Still Into- ; , Mendelssohn
revived the half-forgotten Pnuiioii-
muBic , and it was through .him that the
Bach society was founded.

HINTS FOR EARLY GARDENERS
Stockmen , Look Out For thn Haw
grain jr Days The Testing of
Clover Seed The Chinch
Bug Question.
Sonio Hints t tr Knrly Gardening.
The Western Stockman anil Cultl
vator , published in this city , gives the
following1 hints on early gardening :
Potatoes can be started before plant
ing by cutting ns for ordinary planting
nnd spreading the pieces thinly ever a
layer of. dirt in a shallow box , nnd kept
in a warm room. "Whon started , trans
fer to rows in the garden , handling
carefully so ns not to break ofT the
young sprouts , cover shallow with
uurth , and then cover the row with
horse manure to keep from frost. This
is worth trying with ono or two rows
for by this moans now potatoes may bo
had ton days or two weeks earlier than
by the usual method.
All such hardy vegetables as onions ,
boots , radishes and lettuce may bo
planted as soon as the soil is dry enough
to rake the seed in. Only a small
patch of each need bo planted early , as
there is no hurry for the main crop , but
a small amount of these coming very
early is a great luxury.
A few plants of early cabbage and to1
matoos , say one do/.on of oaeh , given
extra care will provo very satisfactory.
They can bo sot in the open ground at
almost any time nnd n glass fruit jar
turned ever thorn. It won't hurt the
fruit jar , and the glass attracts warmth
and aids growth. Early Jersey Wake-
field cabbage will maico pretty good
heads by Juno UOth , and the Acnio or
Trophy tomatoes with good treatment
will ripen by August 1st.
The earliest garden vegetable is as
paragus. This vegetable is not in very
general use on farmers' tables but
should bo. Tlio old "sparrow grass" of
the Virginians is very hardy , forms per
manent beds , requires almost no career
or labor nftor once started und should
have a place in every garden. It takes
about three years to got a good stand
from seed. A bed four feet by ton .will
supply a good sized family , andis as
patntablq as green peas. Connovor's
Colossal is the favorite kind of aspara
gus and should have directions for
growing on seed package.
Churn Often.
Unless ono has good facilities for
keeping crcnm cool it should bo churn
ed within twenty-four or forty-eight
hours after skimming , says a writer in
the Now York Tribune. Much butter is
rendered abominable Dy allowing the
cream to get very sour and oven moldy
before churning it. It will not do to
keep it long in hot weather , when the
air is full of all forms of microscopic
life , both animal and vegetable. Keep
it from the air as much ns possible , keep
it cool and stir it thoroughly as often -is
now cream is added , and churn as often
as every other day. Each day is bettor ,
but good butter can be mado' by churn
ing every other day if cream is proper
ly kept. _
Nebraska Grasses.
Perhaps " the most interesting general
discussion "hold by the Nebraska Im
proved Stock Breeders association grow
out of Prof. Bcssoy's paper on experi
ments with our wild grasses , says the
Western Stockman and Cultivator. The
truth expressed by Prof. Bessoy that
"lino stock requires line food , " turned
the discussion on to the subject of the
tame grasses. Most of the members
of the association have tried timothy
thy , clover , blue-grass , orchard
grass , and rod-top , with varying
results , depending on the season and
method of seeding. The general experi
ence scorns to bo thut seeding with the
above named grasses on prnirio sod is
unprolitabloowing to the time required
to got n good stand of tame grass , and
the uncertainty of getting a stnnd at
all. That seeding with timothy ana
plover , with rye in the fall , or with llax
in the spring , is the most generally suc
cessful. Some have hud good results
from seeding with grass alone in the
sprlngbut the summer growth of wocda
must bo cut in this cnse. As to the
value of grasses named , clover stands
Hrst. Mr. Bartow , president of Hcr-
ford association , said of clover , in a pri
vate talk with the editor of theStockman ,
"that clover would stand in our soil
longer than any of the tnmo grasses ;
would smother out timothy if given
proper treatment the first scnson. "
Timothy inclines to form bunches with
some farmers. Blue grass won't stand
our hot suns is good swing and fall
otisture. Orchard grass is not valuable.
tted-top is valuable with other grasses
on damp ground. Wo think every
'armor ' In the state ought to BOW a field
of clover this spring.
Testing Clover Seed.
Clover seed should bo carefully
; cs'tcd before sowing , says the Nebraska
Farmer. Mucli of the commercial arti
cle is of a poor quality , and will scarcely
germinate. Many who would not think
of planting corn or sowing wheat with
out Hrat testing their wheat by gormin-
, ion , "go blind" as regards clover seed.
3ut we seldom hear tiny ono sny that
ack of wunccsH in securing a good &tsnd
of clover is properly attributable to
leer seed. The fact of the mutter is ,
) oar clover seed is much more common
ihnn ono would suspect , and wo
strongly advise our readers to run no
ibks of failure by not knowing the true
laturo of the deed before lining- . The
supply of seed hliould bo purchased bo-
bro everybody is ordering , so it will bo
received promptly. Germinate the seed
m Han nul , kept moist and in suitable
.ompornture. Couftt the seeds BO the
> orccnti ; < jo which grows can bo oslab-
ishcd. _
A. Caution to fltncknicn.
The raw , stormy dnys of early spring
are quite as trying on stock as the colder
weather of winter , nnd unless this is
ruarded ngainst by liberal rations , saya
, ho Nobriiska Farmer , they will bo
ikoly to logo as much flesh and general
condition during the next two months
to olTdut what luiH been gained in the
, vny of food Hiivud during the winter.
Experienced fecdorn do not need to ho
reminded of the advantage of liberal
rations at this SCIIKOII , but thcro nro
many who will bo mirprlsoii to Hnd thn
mild winter IniBjiot in the end saved
, hem anything. The winter has boon

The chinch-bug question ia Btill re
ceiving great attention from entomolo
gists and experiment stations. The
Illinois slate entomologist draws the
following conclusions concerning them :
Whatever muy be done by dropping
igniiibt the chinch bug must bo ooiio
jitrly , or not at all. If action bo itc-
luyed year after year , until Uiosn Insects -
sects become excessively numerous , tiio
abandonment of wheat uud ntbar
special crops will do no good , and taken
nlono , may do great harm. In short ,
this is * preventive rather than a reme
dial incnsuro. 2. Iri tho' beginning of
tin outbronic , the nci-cngo In wheat ,
barley nnd rye should bo promptly ro-
duccd or wholly nnbndonod. 3. If the
chinch hup ; continues to incronso , the
oats area should bo rapidly diminished
corn nnd grass remaining the princi
pal dopotrdonco , nnd clover bolng sub-
Blllutod for the latter wherever prac
ticable. Prof. C. V. Hlloy , in a lotlor
to the Northwestern Farmer , expresses
the theory that Dakota has so far boon
exempted from the depredations of this
post because the stale la so far norlh ,
and the chinch bug is by nnturo a
southern insect.
HAN DEu"
Incidents In the Ijifo of the Great
Computer.
Even Handel , though generally prosperous -
porous , hnd Ills own early struggles ,
saysawrltor In the Youth's Companion.
A father should hall with enthusiasm
nny signs of natural gonlus in his child ,
but when Handel's father notlcod the
genius for music in his son George ho
did his best to suppress it and to con
vert the boy from a musician into a law
yer. Fortunately his mother was not
quito so infatuated. She allowed the
boy to secret in his garret a spinet on
which ho was able to play where no ono
could hoar him , nnd at the ago of seven
ho could play and improvise.
Ho owed his emancipation from his
father's opposition to ono of those un
seen acts of "God's providence which
men nickname chance. " IIo had an
older orothcr who wns in the service of
the duke of Woissonfels , nnd ono day
his father wont to BOO him. IIo refused -
fused to take George , but the boy
sturdily followed the carriage on foot ,
till his father gave way to his obsti
nacy , took him Into the carriage nnd
bore him forward to the lulflllmont'-of
his destiny.
In the duko'a chnpol was nn organ ,
nnd George , unable to resist the tempta
tion , crept up to it nftor the service was
ever and began to play.
"Who is that who is playing so re
markably ? " asked the dulco. '
"My little brother , " answered the
page.
The duke , who wns wiser than Dr.
Hnndol , at once persuaded him to let
the child follow the bent of his genius.
The father reluctantly consented , and
Handel became a pupil of Friedrich
Zachau , the organist of Flallo cathedra ) .
By the ago of cloven ho had learnt all
that Xaclinu could loach him , nnd the
conscientious orpanist advised him to
go to BcrliiMvhoro his talents surprised
all the musicians , and woke the envy of
hit ) future rival Buononclni.
The elector offered to send him to
Italy to finish his musical education ,
but his father refused thoolTor. Al Dr.
Handel's death George hnd to accept
the post of violinist in the oporn house
at Hamburg. His superiority to all the
members of the oruhostrursoon became
evident , nnd when on ono occasion ho
suddenly took the place of the absent
player on the harpsichord , Matthcson.
one of his ' fellow-musicians , got so furi
ous with 'him , that their quarrel ended
in a duel. During the fight Matthosoii's
sword broke short cither on a metal
button of Handel's coat , or on a music-
score which ho carried in his breast
pocket ; and so his lifo was saved to en
rich the world , in duo time , with the
matchless choruses of the "Messiah. "
An Ancient UlIMo.
The fourth Mnzarin Bible sold within
the last sixteen years has been knocked
down to Mr. Quaritch for 2.000 , says
the London Globe. Sir John Thorold's
copy fctchqd as much as . 3,000 ; that
which was offered at the Perkins sale
in 1873 wont for 2,090 , and Lord Craw
ford's , in 1SS7 , was secured by Mr.
Quaritch for 2,050. So far , then , the
work would scorn to have depreciated a
very little in value. Nevertheless 2,000
is not a bad figure even for a cony of
the first edition of the Bible and , in
deed , the first book printed with mov
able typos by the inventors of printing.
This version of the holy scriptures was
the work of Guttonburg and Faust , and
though moro than four centurion linvo
elapsed since it was given to the world
it has never bcon Rurnassod probably
never has bcon equaled ns an urtiatio
production. Of course wo have our edi
tions dc luxo , which , especially in the
case of those turned out in Franco , nro
veritably things of beauty ; but , loving
as is the care often bestowed on modern
books , not only by the publisher and
master printer , but even by the em
ployes who worlc only for pay , wo do
not nowadays produce such masterpieces -
pieces as cnmo from the press even nt
the beginning of the printers' art. This
is mainly because the public tnsto for
such elaborate products has virtually
died out.

MURPHY ANXIOUS TO FIGHT
Hut the Spider Prefers to Give
Exhibition or Ills Sprlntlnc
Powers niul the Affair
Ends In n How.
\Vclr-Murpliy right.
CHICAGO , March 31. The long talkcil-oj
light bctwoon the feathor-wolghts , Iho Wolr
otherwise known ni the Belfast Spldor , anil
Prank Murphy , of England , for the ohnntf
pionshlp of the world , took plnco nt Kottttj
this morning , but resulted as so many fight
have recently , In n most unsatisfactory wrnvj
nor. The referee nftor the eightieth
wns obliged to declare the fight off for ;
day , and announced that It would have ton
finished some tlmo before Tuesday. It Is
tremoly doubtful , however , It the man
como together again certainly not wltti.
that time mid miothor draw will probnbl ;
have to go on record.
The light this morning wns a most peculiar ]
ono. For clghtco rounds It was ns selentifiol
nnd hardly fought battle as has over boon !
soon , but the ether sixty-two rounds , save
the Btxty-sovonth nnd sixty-eighth , amounted !
to absolutely nothing , In not moro than ton !
of them was a blow struolt , and most of the ]
tlmo the inon aid not oven nut tholr hands !
up. The explanation for this lies In the fncfl
that after ton or twelve rounds the Spldor'il
hands went back on him , nnd hpl
could do nothing with them. Murphy , who !
proved himself to bo a most plucky fightorl
but n most wretched general , failed to got !
any advantage out of the predicament of 1
Weir , who wiu dancing just out of his reach , j
Another thing was that Murphy wns not in.
the host of condition , ns wns shown by the J
great wolta loJt from each blow. , J
The spider tirovod himself much the ]
cleverer of the two , nnd the wny In which hoi
sailed at Murphy during the llrst few rounds , !
smashing first ono eye und then the other J
thcn.on the nose , and twice knocking him ]
down with a sounding crack on the nock , }
convinced many that ho could have won thol
fight hnd his hands hold out. There were I
others , however , who were lourt in their ns-3
sertlons mat Murphy showed hlmsoltthol
bettor man of the two. Ho certainly provdd
himself ono of the gamiest men that ever on *
terod n ring , nnd with his two eyes almost
closed , and in splta of nnvlng bcon sent to ]
grass twice , ho rushed his long , limber nn-J
tngonist all ever the ring. This was in thJf
early part of the light , howovor. During the
rest of it neither seemed inclined to do much ;
of anything , nnd the two men alternately ,
chaffed each other , the spectators occa
sionally varying the monotony of the pro
ceedings by taking a hand In the talking'
match nnd urging the lighters to give them
their money's worth.
After round nfter round hnd been fought
without a blow , Weir made n splendid rally.
The sixty-sovonth nnd sixty-eighth rounds
were ns lively as the moat blood-thirsty
could desire , nndVcir nhnost had Murphy
knocked out. The spurt was a short ono ,
however , nnd the old tactics were again re
sumed under instructions of the rmultcra.
When the spectators saw that nothing could
bo oxpcetod they soon tired ot the sho\y and
the postponement was really at their demand.
Weir's backer acted very square , nnd before
the rally repeatedly urged tlio Spldor to go
in and light , oven if he got licked. Parson
Davies' management of the nll'nlr was excel
lent , and his arrangements were all carried -1
out well.
After the fight Weir showed hut little pun
ishment , though lie said his Hba were fright
fully aero and ho thought his law was
broken. Murphv wns badly bruised up. His
eyes were almost closed , and on lus ribs was
n huge lump.
IJurlnr the morning thcro xvcro ono or two
encounters hotweon the sports and natives
of Koults that served to enliven the pro
ceedings. Near the end of light the ownur
declared that ho had not rented the prom
ises for n wcolr , nnd unless the fight was ,
finished pretty soon ho would have it
stopped. Shortly nftor this n queer looking
specimen representing himself to bo an officer
worked his wny through the crowd and
cried , "This fiL'ht is stopped. " Before ho
hnd n chance to say anvthing moro ho re
ceived a crack behind the car that sent him
over the chairs , and with the aid of several
moro vicious blows ho soon reached the outer
air in a very dazed condition.
It is understood to-night that the match
will not bo fought again. The Parson said
that to have tlui men como together again
would bo brutal , and ho is willing to divide
the Slr > 00 purse equally between them , if
this is done It would mean that the fighters
each would obtain one-half of the
net gate receipts. The purse and pnto
receipts are ono and the same thing. The
affair , therefore , was n contest for the gate
receipts , and one explanation of the listlessness -
ness of the fighters during the hist two-
thirds of the nltalr Is that by that ttmo they
were tucltly agreed that It would bo most
agreeable to make n division and not injure
their future business by a knock-out.
