PLAN FOR A GRANARY.
-
Peslirned to Prevent the Depreda-
tlona of Kali and Mice.
The great loss caused by rats and
cated in the barn or wagon house is a
subject of remark by a writer in Ohio
Farmer. Referring to such bins, be says:
I never have seen a bin which was
not subject to the depredations of these
pests. If lined with tin, they might
probably be kept out, but this would be
quite expensive and not very satisfac-

tory. The ordinary corncrib is also a
harbor for rats and mice. I am pretty
well convinced that in the space of a
few years they will destroy grain enough
to pay for a good granary.
When I moved to iny present place, I
found just such arrangements for stor¬
ing grain—namely, a corner up stairs
in the horse barn shut off for oats and
an old fashioned crib outdoors. Mice
had free swing in both of these and de¬
stroyed many dollars’ worth of grain
every year. As soon as I could get to
it I built a place for grain which pleases
me very much.
The timbers are 8 by 8, of hard wood
throughout. Tho posts rest on large
stones. Four feet from the ground the
sills are framed into the posts. At one
end the tenon of the sill enters the post,
while on the other end the post and sill
are “halved” together, allowing the sill
to run by the post 18 inches. The plates
project on the end last dosex-ibed 2}4
feet. In this end I store my corn, the

up and down, with a space of one inch
between them to admit the air. Inside
an alley runs the whole length of the
granary, allowing one to reach the corn-
crib and the graiu bins on either side.
Scantlings of 2 by 4 stuff run from
the beam in tire front end to that at the
rear. Under this, at regular intervals,
aro set posts of the same size. From
these posts boards of planed material
run to the outside Avail, forming the
Bides of the bins. The end next to the
alleyway is made of planed boards
which may be taken out easily as need¬
ed. The entire interior is ceiled with
three-eighths pine. Overhead boards
may be put down for surplus corn if
needed. The tops of the posts nearest
to the floor are tinned to keep mice
from climbing up them. The building
is sided with hemlock boards and all
painted red with trimmings of white.
A window in the gable lets in light.
No mice have found their way into
this building yet. We enter the granary
by a light ladder, which is put up when
we want to go in and carefully taken
down when not needed. The cuts show
the appearance of this building, front
and rear.
Locating: Apiaries.
There are few locations in which bees
will not do well, but there are locations
that are much better than others, and
this is worthy of notice, says A. H. Duff
iu Farm, Field and Fireside: Many
persons are situated iu the midst of ex¬
cellent bee pasturage, where bees would
prove extremely profitable if they would
adopt them. There are hundreds of acres
of alfalfa clover in many parts of the
west that no bees have ever seen. Tons
of honey might be the result if enough
bees were in reach of it to secure the
nectar, which of course is a total loss
otherwise. Not only this, but the pres-
ence ence of ol bees Dees to to nolleuize pouemzejue the blossoms me

FISHING FOR SPONGES.
How They Are Sighted and Bronght
p f rom tlie Water.
The sponges of commerce and the dried
specimens of other species are not the ac¬
tual animals, but merely their skeletons
or framework. That which constitutes
their vital part § is removed in preparing
them for market.
feponges do not have the power of mo-
tion possessed by most animals. They are
nearly always attached to submerged ob-
i ects - Since it is impossible for them to
They are more active in fresh than in
still water and die in a short time if ex-
posed to the air. The surface of a living
sponge is covered with minute pores,
through which water is imbibed,.carrying
with it both the air and the organic par-
tides necessary for the support of life.
Sponges are distributed through all seas
and are classified chiefly according to the
structure of the skeleton. The Moditer-
ranenn and the Red seas are the sponging
grounds of the old world. The grounds
of the new world are the Bahamas, south-
ern and western Forida and parts of the
NSest Indies.
'I he best sponge of commerce is found in
tho Mediterranean and is known as the
1 urkey, or Smyrna, sponge. It is obtained
by divers, who go clad in armor when div-
ing.
Sponges are usually obtained by fishing
for them. When a sponge vessel arrives
at the fishing grounds in the Bahamas, it
is anchored, and the crew immediately get
ready for work. The sponge fisher’s out¬
fit consists of a small boat called a “din¬
gey,” a long hook and a water glass. The
sponge hook is a three pronged iron fork
attached to the end of a very long pole.
The water glass is simply a wooden water
bucket with a bottom of common window
glnss.
To use it the glass bottom is thrust into
the water, the fisherman puts the bail
around his neck and then buries his head
deep in tho bucket to exclude the light.
There are always two men to each dingey
—one to act ns “sculler” and the other as
“hooker.” While the sculler propels tha
dingey along very slowly the hooker, in a
kneeling position, keeps his head in the
water glass, looking down in the water.
W hen a good spongo is sighted, the hooker
gives a signal, and the dingey stops.
Together tho sculler and hooker thrust
the sponge hook down through tho water
and run it undor the sponge. The roots
are thus pulled loose from the rocks, and
soon tho game is in the dingey. Thus the
work goes on until a boatload is obtained,
and then they are taken ashore and placed
in crawls to be cured. The crawls are
built by sticking pieces of brush or stakes
into the sand just out of the water or
where it is very shallow.
They remain in the crawls while under¬
going maceration, and the refuse is carried
away in tho ebb and flow of the tide.
Usually they are left In the crawls for a
week; then the fishermen remove them
and give them a boating for the purpose of
removing all chance impurities. After
the beating they are thoroughly cleansed
and are ready lor market.—Philadelphia

LUCKY PARSONS.
TheyCan Marry Themselves and Save
the Wedding: Fee.
“The law is very blank on the question
which occasionally conies up as to the le¬
gal right of a clergyman to marry him¬
self,” observed a lawyer. “Of course there
aro not many clergymen who have ever
contended that they had the legal as well
as the ecclesiastical right to perform a mar-
riago when they were personally parties
to it, and there never will bo, from the
peculiar circumstances of the case. As far
as the laws of this District are concerned,
however, a clergyman is just as competent
to marry himself as he is to marry others,
for the reason that the laws do not Bay
anything to the contrary, and the clergy¬
man’s certificate that the marriage has
been performed is all that is needed to
make it lawful.
“I am not up in ecclesiastical law to any
great extent, and I am not able to explain
the church ordinances, but as far as I can
learn a clergyman of any of the leading
denominations has all the church right to
marry himself that he has to marry others.
The court of queen’s bench in Dublin on
Nov. 1(S, 1855, had a case of this kind un¬
der consideration, the only point in Issue
being whether a clergyman could marry
himself. The case was very fully argued
and is reported in the reports of that court
and quoted by many English law writers.
The decision was in the affirmative, and
that is the law of England today. Some
of the state laws may have thought it nec¬
essary to express an opinion in the matter,
but I have never seen any. The case that
I refer to is cited in the books as that of
Beamish versus Beamish, It was a pro-
ceeding for a divorce, in which the ques¬
tion was raised that there never had been
a marriage.”—"Washington Star.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE.
GREAT RESPONSIBILITIES THAT REST
UPON THE HOUSEKEEPER.
M Is Not Necessary to Know How to
Do Everything, but an Equable
Temper, Tact and System Are In¬
dispensable.
Housekeeping is a science. It has the
investment of far more money than any
discussions are held and great parties are
°™ /
treasury of , the T united . tates han-
.
dies vast sums, and the recital of its fig-
ures staggers the comprehension of any
but trained financiers. Yet its utmost in
receipts and expenditures inconsiderable would prove
only a petty and an item
when compared with the annual output of
those little considered sisters of mine, the
housekeepers of America, and I am forced
to confess, to my own confusion, that all
the extravagance and criminal waste in
a u the national departments from that
memorable Fourth of July when our 6ires
pup their names to the Declaration of In-
dependence down to this present day would
not begin to equal in amount the waste
an d extravagance for which those same
sisters ef mine should be held responsible
within the current twelvemonth.
For almost every man who is a worker
there is a woman—some woman, wife,
mother, sister or only landlady—whose
hand is held open for him on Saturday
night or at tho end of the month or the
quarter or whenever the fruits of his toil
aro gathered and to whose care he gives
up all but the llttlo he needs to jingle in
his pouch and keep the ghosts away. This
woman is the housekeeper, and upon her
discretion and ability and thrift depend
not only that man’s creature comforts,
but to a great extent his success in life.
Having thus dignified the name of
housekeeper by showing that she is the
principal disbursing agent for the wages
of man, it is now in order to classify the
various grades of this profession from the
wife of the laborer, living in a two room
cottage or a three room tenement, up in¬
numerable flights of dark, rickety, dirty
stairs, to the smart, alert woman of affairs
who manages the establishment of a mil¬
lionaire, whether she be the titular mis¬
tress of the house or a paid employee.
Among those^who, for want of a better
word, may be called the low classes it is
generally understood that a thrifty, busy
wife makes of her husband a thrifty and,
within bounds, a successful man unless
indeed he be one of those good for naughts
whom nothing can redeem.
A step higher in the social scale, al¬
though by no means so long a step as she
likes to think it, is the worn, n whose
means are such that she is enabled to em¬
ploy a maid of all work—a “hired girl,” I
believe, is the accepted term. In this class
are to be found the two extremes—the
best housekeepers and the worst.
When a woman attains to the dignity
of employing a hired girl, it makes or it
mars her. If she keeps her hand on the
helm, if she continues to do a part of the
work herself and to personally supervise
that which she does not do, the results are
likely to be most satisfactory, if, on the
other hand, the great bulk of the work is
dumped upon the hapless “slavey,” while
the mistress confines her exertions to scold¬
ings and fault finding, then has the white
robed angel of peace left that house, and
the sooner the fagged out husband and
neglected ohildren can follow tho angel
the shorter will be their sufferings.
I am frequently called upon in my busi¬
ness capacity to furnish housekeepers to
grand establishments, and I am as often
struck with the absence of that practical
knowledge, training and aptitude for con¬
trolling servants which my applicants ex¬
hibit.
It is not essential that a housekeeper
should herself know how to cook in order
to spread a good table, nor need she be able
to clear starch nor to clean silver in order
to direct competent servants in these mat¬
ters. The first and greatest requisites in
a housekeeper are system and method.
Equipped with these and a tolerably
equable temper, she is prepared to face an
army of servants and to bring order out of
chaos.
By system and method I do not mean
the wretched cut and dried precision with
which some housekeepers (I regret to say
they, with some show of truth, call them¬
selves “old fashioned”) make their homes
wretched and forbidding alike to their
manservant, their maidservant and to the
stranger that is within their gates.
I can recall some bouses in which it has
been my hard lot to find myself a sojourn¬
er wherein should one so much as walk
through a drawing room the hostess could
detect the fact as readily and as unerringly
as the red Indian could detect the trail of
a settler passing through the forest. A
book on the side table, which for countless
years had lain with its title up and it*
length northeast by southwest, may be
now headed north-northeast by south-
southwest.
The parlor maid could never have been
guilty of such carelessness. For all those
countless years of her colorless and wretch-
ed existence each morning she has careful-
ly lifted and dusted that same book and
replaced it in mathematically the same
position. Evidently strangers, vandals
perhaps, have been about. And there’s
that sofa cushion nearly two inches out of
place. “Mary! Mary! Do come and put
this room into some sort of order again.”

From the Tower of David the
Kaiser Walks to Church of the
Holy Sepulchre.
Jerusalem, October 30.—The ap¬
proach of their German imperial
majesties to the city yesterday was
made through triumphal arches and
amid banners, garlands and ever
growing crowds, displaying in
every way their enthusiasm and
delight.
The formal entry through the
Jaffa gate was heralded by the roar
of guns at the citadel, were the
Turkish band played the German
anthem.
From the tower of David Em¬
peror William and Empress Augus¬
ta Victoria proceeded on foot amid
wild cheering to the Church of the
Holy Sepulchre, where they were
received by the Catholic, Greek
and Armenian clergy, whose pat¬
riarchs presented addresses eulog¬
izing the devotion of Emperor Wil¬
liam who has since conferred deco¬
rations on the patriarchs.
Their majesties then proceeded
to the German Evangelical church,
where the pastor presented an ad-
dress. »
At 6 o’clock in the evening
(Saturday) a reception was held at
the German consulate and later
there was a general illumination of
the city with a display of tvorks.
Today the imperial pair attended
service at the Evangelical church
in Bethlehem, alterwards paying a

Hon. Jacob L. Beach resigned the
position of prison commissioner
Saturday and his successor was ap¬

Georgia Brings Medals Away
From Omaha Fair.
Omaha, Neb., October 31.—
(Special to the Atlanta Constitu¬
tion.)—The exposition went out in
a blaze of glory today. In my can¬
did judgment it was the most re¬
markable of all the expositions that
have occured in the last few year?.
Fifty per cent of the money paid in
by stockholders has been ordered
returned from the money in bank
with the promise from President
Wattles,in a significant speech this
afternoon, that every dollar will be
subsequently returned when all the
business matters shall have been
closed.
Georgia came on the home stretch
with great distinction. We won
the highest honor, a gold medal,for
the best small farm—that of John
Al Mangett, of Marietta. We won
another gold medal on ornamental
lumber and timber specimens, a
bronze medal on cheese, a bronze
medal on sugar cane and syrup,a
bronze medal on indian corn, a
bronze medal on timber specimens
and a gold one on our fruits. We
took a medal on everything we had
on display,and all we needed to take
more medal was to have had more
money to bring more things. We
were not reduced to a diploma nor
honorable mention on a single ex¬
hibition.

Earmarks of Lost Tribes.
From the Bible Baptists.
That the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel
are found in the Anglo-Saxon stock
of England and America is clear
from every point of reckoning.
The British lion is nothing but
the lion of the tribe of Judah per¬
petuated.
The unicorn of the coat of arms
of Britain has its origin in Genesis.
The Bullock of Palestine finds its
counterpart in “John Bull.”
Ephraim stumbled over h, said
Sibboleth for Shibboleth, and so
does the modern Cockney.
The Druidic priests and religious
rites of ancient Britain are precise¬
ly parallel to the Baalstic priests
and ceremonies of Baalism of
Palestine before Israel was carried
away into Media.
Even the national cognomen.
“Britain,” has its root in the pho¬
netic Hebrew, “Britain,” which
signifies “Covenant.” Hence
Britain is the land of covenant.
These are just some few of the
identifying marks picked up at ran¬
dom, and because of their manifest
import.
There are many others we shall
elaborate more fully hereafter.
