Stumbling Block to Progress.

HAVANA, June 27.—Owiug to the
murders, robberies and depredations in
the vicinity of Guanajay the peasants
are sending their families into the town.
The mayor, having decided it would be
impossible to reach the culprits through
the ordinary processes of law, issued an
order for the arrest on suspicion of all

*disreputable characters. The first man
taken into custody was Macuto, who is
believed to have been one of the gang
that recently raided Garcia’s store at
Mariel. Major Dougherty and the chief
of police rode to Mariel and assured Gar-
cia of full protection if he would identify
Macuto. He was badly frightened, trem-
bled, contradicted himself several times,
and finally he said he would not be able
to recognize any member of the gang.

A Cuban major named Sanz, suspected
of complicity, was the next man arrested.
He hastily left town the day after the
robbery. Then followed the arrest of a

the guard on the Canas plantation. Heis
believed to have been in league with the
thieves and was taken to Guanajay in
Major Sanz’s carriage. ,.'-

Sunday night the police captured thnec
supposed bandits. Pedro Nunez, said .to
be the ringleader, was taken, but he es-
caped, threatening to shoot an unarmed
inspector; of police if he were followed.
Nunez is said to be in Havana, and the
inspector, who is suspected of conniving
at his escape, has been suspended.

Many dangerous men are leaving the
‘town, and the citizens feel better satisfied
now that the authorities are taking ac-
- tive measures. Orders have been issued
for the arrest of ten Cuban officers and
two Spanish former guerrillas, all of
whom are believed to be guilty of serious
ofl’enses.

It is persistently rumored here that
there has been serious trouble at Nuevi-
tas in connection with the payment 01
the Cuban troops. The story is that the
Cubans, after receiving payment, charg-
ed the guard and recovered the arms
they had surrendered. '

In American ofiicial circles the report is
discredited. The authorities have full
_ confidence in Colonel Moale, who is in
charge of the payment there, and are
satisfied that it is proceeding without col-
lision. ,

La Lucha, in an editorial dealing with
the political future of the island, says:

“No political programme is possible 01
execution. The Americans talk about
Cuban slowness in organizing, but they
place every obstacle in our way. Cuba
is today an immense military camp,
which it will continue to be just so long
as the Americans find that convenient
or have a pretext for maintaining the
present‘conditions. The Americans are
everything.
the whole.”

 

The President’s Return .
ADAMS, Mass, .Iune 27,—Presidem
McKinley and party left for \Vashington
shortly before 8 o’clock last night. They
went by way of the Boston and Albany,
\Vest Shore and Pennsylvania roads.
Mrs. McKinley’s health was the cause of
the sudden departure. Coming from Hol-
yokc to Springfield by the boat, Mrs.
McKinley caught cold, and she has not
recovered from it. She has been fearing
that she was in danger of being seriously
ill away from home, and this-cold aggra-
vatcd her nervous condition. On the rec-
ommendation of Dr. Rixey, the presi-
dent’s physician, the. president decided to
return at once. ‘

nounces that $20,000,000 more of Rus-
sian capital is about to be spent in this

Lively at Lowell.

JJOWELL, Mass, June 27.—The big
L'owell cotton mills never knew such a
prosperous season. They are hardly able
to keep up with orders. No man with
two hands need be idle in Lowell. The
demand for labor ‘cxceeds the supply.
The Boott, Massachusetts and Merrimac
run practically two forces of hands in
their spinning departments.

supply of thrifty, vigorous plants is e541
sential. ,These may be grown in a seed
bed. In Order to have thrifty, vigor-
ous plants, the soil should be rich and
thoroughly prepared in good hills.

"1 The plants must have plenty of room
to grow, and ifthey come up too quick-
.ly it- will pay to thin out.

In many cases a good top dressing
of wood ashes after the seed is sown
will be beneficial. Make the rows in the
seed bed about a foot apart. The seed
needvery little covering, and it will pay

seed; but if there is sufiicient moist-
ure in the soil to induce a good ger-
mination this is not necessary.

It- is quite an item to have short,
stocky plants, and if’this is done the
plants must have plenty of room to

the weeds and the soil in a good tilth.

Some celery growers prefer to trans-
plant twice, cutting back the tops
slightly at the first transplanting. It
is claimedthat by this plan more and
better roots may be secured.

After the plants have made sufficient
grth they may be transplanted where
they are to grow and mature. ’

In many cases celery may be grown
where an early crop has been grown.

The middle or latter part of July is a
good time to set out, the plants, though
it may be done as late as August. As
the transplanting is usually done at a
dry time, it will nearly always be a good
plan to water the plants ..well an hour
before taking them up.
enough to soften the ground, so that
the plants will come up readily, and
without injury to the roots.

Work the soil deep and thoroughly,
and then mark out the rows four feet
apart, with the plants ten to twelve
inches apart in the rows. Water two or

~three times Until the plants start to
grow. Clean, thorough cultivation is
necessary in order to secure a thrifty,
vigorous growth—St. Louis Republic.

WIRE-FENCE CORNERS.

To Brace Them Eflectively and Se-

There are many ways of securing the
corners of wire fences. Weighting, an-
choring, bracing, guying, etc., are used.

It is neither difficult .nor expensive to
put in corners for a wire fence (whether
barbed, woven or plain) that will not

tory. '

Select a large, straight, sound post
for the corner, “planting” it at least 30
inches deep. Then six or eight feet
from this, and along each line .of the
fence, set an ordinary pest, and .be-
tween the tops of each of these and the
top of the corner post fix a piece of two
by four scantling, spiking'it securely
with wire nails.‘ Then extend a. guy-
v.~.'- II: from the top of each of these brace-
posts to bottom of the corner one,
making it ' ble at each end so it may

An Objectionable Aniwier.

"Questions as to on e’s household man-
agement are always objectionable un—
less they come from intimate friends
who are anxious to give or take counsel
in the adults of daily life,” says Mrs.
lumphrey. in her chat on “Social Blun-
ders and How to Avoidfl‘hem,” in the
Young Woman. She goes onto say that
she once met at a lunch a young lady
,who annoyed her hostess very much by
answering, when asked if she would
have roast mutton or boiled fowl:
“Whatever you do not want to keep
for the servants’ dinner.” The hostess
did not conceal her displeasure at this
apparent reflection on he} manage-
ment. ' - '

Sometimes somebody will make
money, growing the delicious buckle-
berry. It is a product of considerable
commercial importance. In the height
of the season New, York takes 2,000
bushels a day and» the receipts at Chi-
cago and other large cities are large.
Wisconsin markets from $60,000 to $80,-
.000 worth a year. But the wild berryis
becoming scarcer and in time will cease
to exist. The huckleberry. and blue-
berry are exceedingly shy in habit,
and there is some difficulty in domesti-
cating them, but enough has been done
in that direction to show! that it is
possible. If small bushes are removed
from high ground, with a ball of earth
attached to each, in the early spring,
and planted closely together in soi in
which there is plenty of sand and loam,
the chances are that they will grow
and produce for many years. Cultiva-
tion will probably greatly enlarge the
fruit, and whoever can establish a
huckleberry patch will find more profit
in it than was ever. made from - the
blackberry or is now being made from
the strawberry. On some farms there
are unused swamps that. might. be
profitably utilized in growing certain
varieties of the huckleberry such as the
