Where Are the Famous Naviga¬
tor’s Remains Entombed?
Facts Showing They Were In¬
terred In San Domingo.
A correspondent of tho New York
Evening Post in tho city of San Dom¬
ingo writes as follows:
The Cathedral occupies ono side of
the Plaza, as the square upon which it
and tho Government and Presidential
palaces stand is called. It was begun
1524 and finished in 1540 hilt it has
suffered so many repairs and additions
that it is difficult to foini au idea of
its original appearance. Hero in 1536
were placed the remains of Christopher
Columbus with thoso of his brother,
and here, if the Santo Dominicans
may bo believed, they still remain.
Their story in support of their asser¬
tion is that when the Spanish fleet
came in 1796 to remove the remains
of Columbus to Havana, the Arch¬
bishop at the time being a native of
San Dominigo, was unwilling to
see his nntivo country despoiled
of its cherished relic, and in con¬
sequence pointed out to tho Spanish
officials the urn containing the remains
of Bartholomew as that of which they
were in quest. Then, fearing tho de¬
ception might be disclosed to his detri¬
ment, he concealed tho remains o*
Christopher in a hiding-place where
they remained forgotten—until about
fourteen years ago, when it became
necessary in the course of repairs, to
take up tho marble pavement and tho
secret crypt was discovered. Tho urn
or chest that is shown, when sufficient¬
ly powerful influence is brought to
bear, certainly corroborates the story.
It is a leaden box about two feet long
by one foot wide and deep; on tho
front is the letter C, and on tho ends
are the letters C and A; whieli aro
supposed to stand for Cristoval Colon,
Almirantc. The lid is. inscribed on
both sides, on tho top are tho letters:—
D. de la A P cr A; that is Descubridor
de la America, Primer Almirantc.
On the lower side in Old English let¬
ters is written:
“Yliustro y Esclarecido Varon, Don
Cristoval Colon.’' (Illustrious and
famous man, Don Christopher
Columbus.) Screwed to the inside of
the box were found two small silver
plates, inscribed as follows: the one
—“U » p ** los r toss del p mer A1
to
D. Cristoval Colon D.tho other,
“A Cristoval Colon,” the latter re¬
quires no interpretation, the former is
supposed to signify “Urna pertene-
ciente de los rcstos del primer Al-
miraute, Don Cristoval Colon, Descu¬
bridor.” (Urn belonging to tho re¬
mains of tho First Admiral Don
Christopher Columbus, Discoverer.)
Inside tiiis box when il was opened
were said to have been found some
dust and some bones; the dust was
collected in a small casket which with
tho bones is now shown.
It is difficult to determine how much
reliance may be placed upon this story,
but that the urn or chest is genuine
there can bo but little doubt; without
further investigation the presumption
certainly seems to bo in favor of tho
Santo Dominicans and they point
triumphantly to tho tangible evidence
they possess to defy the llabanoros
to exhibit tho remains they keep so
carefully walled up in the Cathedral
at Havana.
In the centre of the Plaza stands a
largo and handsome bronze statue of
Columbus, which was cast in France
by order of the Government some five
years ago. It represents (ho Admiral
as standing and pointing to tho west¬
ward. At the base of thopedstal is a
smaller bronze statuo of Anacaona in
the act of writing the inscription that
was found on the insido of the lid of
the chest, “Yllustro y Esclarecido
Varon Don Christoval Colon.”
Why Razors Grow Blunt.
The finest grades of razors aro so
delicate that even the famous Datnas
cus sword blades cannot equal them
in texture. It is not generally known
that tho grain of a Swedish razor is so
sensitive lhat its general direction is
changed after a short service, When
you buy a fine razor the grain runs
from the upper end of the outer point
in a diagonal direction toward the
handle. Coustant strapping will
twist the steel until the grain appears
to bo straight up and down, Subse-
qtieut uso will drag the grain outw ard
from the edge so that after steady use
for several months the fibre of thf
steel occupies a position exactly the
reverse of that which it did on tho day
of purchase.
The process also affects tho temper
of the blade, and when the grain seta
from the lower and outer point toward
the back, you have a razor which can¬
not be kept in condition, even by the
most conscientious barber. But here’s
another curious freak that will take
place in the same tool: Leavo the
razor alone for a month or two, and
when you take it up you will find that
the grain has assumed its first position.
The operation can be repeated until
tho steel is worn through to the back.

FOR FARM AND GAV EN.
MEASURING HAY LV SCK.
A common cstimato for nay in a
Ntnckor mow is 500 cubic feet of tim¬
othy, COO of clover and timothy, 700
of clear clover, and 800 of redtop and
other light hay to the ton. If tho hay
is unusually hard pressed by grain
being put on it in a deep mow, ono-
flfth less than thoso measures arc
taken.—[New York Times.
AGE OF APPLE TREES.
The average life of an apple tree is
rated at lifty years; hut individual
trees ofton reach a hundred years or
more, when well cared for. Thou¬
sands of applo trees, however, like
men, die early from neglect and bad
treatment. The cutting away of largo
limbs is one frequent cause of ruin
and dcatli. Tho unprotected wound
causes an early decay of tho wood and
then death. In old orchards trees may
frequently be found which nro mere
shells, little of the trunk being left
beside the hark. — [New York inde¬
pendent.
VALUE OF ROOTS FOR FEEDING COLTS.
The special value of roots depends
not wholly upon the nutriment they
contain, but on their result in tlie d-
gestion of other food. All the roots
are completely digestible and aid very
much in the digestion of hay and
grain. Carrots are not any more nu¬
tritious than oilier roots, except sugar
beets, which arc tiio most nutritious
of all kinds, as they contain so much
sugar. But they seem to agree with
horses better than other roots, and
half a peck of them, sliced and
sprinkled with cornmeal, may oe giv¬
en very usefully twice a day. If thus
fed, colts will need only half tho usual
allowance of grain.—[New York
Times.
FISH FOR FOWLS.
Fresh fish are devoured as raven¬
ously by fowls as by cats, especially
if boiled before being fed. The in¬
creased supply of eggs resulting from
such food is surprising to one who
lias never before tried it. Care should
be exercised that they aro not fed too
continuously on such food, as a fishy
flavor will bo imparted to tho eggs.
Two or three times a week is often
enough. For young ducks and chick¬
ens a daily supply may be used with
benefit.
One great advantage in portions of
Maryland, Virginia, and other states
on the sea-coast, as locations for poul¬
try farms, consists in the ease with
which great quantities of cheap fish
can be procured by netting.—[Ameri¬
can Poultry Yard.
WHIFFING HORSES.
Professor Wagner, in writing upon
the subject of whipping horses, says:
“Many think they are doing finely and
are proud of their success in horse
training by means of severe whipping,
or otherwise arousing or stimulating
the passions, and through necessity
crushing the will through which tiio
resistance is prompted. No mistake
can be greater than litis, and there is
nothing that so fully exhibits tho abili¬
ty', judgment and skill of tiio real
horseman as the care displayed in
winning instead of repelling the action
of his mind. Although it may bo
necessary to use the whip sometimes
it should always be applied judiciously,
and great care should be taken not to
arouse tho passions or excite tho ob¬
stinacy. Tho legitimate and proper
use of the whip is calculated to operate
upon the sense of fear almost entirely.
The affectionate and bolter nature
must be appealed to in training horses
ns well as in training children, but if
only tho passions aro excited tho ob¬
ject is depraving and injurious. This
is a vital principle, and can be disre¬
garded in the management of sensitive
and courageous horses only at the risk
of spoiliug them. I have known many
horses of a naturally gentlo character
to bo spoiled by whipping once, and
one horso that was made vicious by
being struck with a whip once while
standing in his stall.”—[New York
Herald.
COST OF GROWING BEETS.
Nearly all estimates of profit in beet
sugar manufacture put tho cost of
growing and delivering the crop much
too low. The manufacturer couid
figure out a profit if the farmer were
willing to work for nothing and board
himself. Most of the attempts to
make beet sugar have failed from this
cause. After trying it one year, or
perhaps two, farmers have refused to
grow’ beets for notliinn, even to help a
promising industry. The bounty of
two cents a pound which the govern¬
ment will pay on beet, maple or cane
sugar made in this country will in¬
tensify this feeling. It is given only
to quantities exceeding 500 pounds.
Now f if part of this bounty is not
given to the farmer who grow’S tho
beets, there will be few beets grown
for sugar-making. In some cases only
$2 a ton has been given for sugar
beets, not enough to pay for harvest¬
ing and hauling where the distanco is
more than a mile. In some careful
experiments made by Nebraska fann¬
ers, and reported in the Siato Experi-
mental Bulletin, it was found that
the average cost of growing boots and
hauling to market was very nearly $60
per acre when its crop was a good one.
The State pays one cent bounty on
sugar and the United States two cent*.
This added to the selling prico of the
sugar made a nico profit to the manu¬
facturer, but where does tho farmer
come in? Unless sugar manufacturers
aro willing to let live as well as to live
they must go into other business for
want of material. — [Boston Cultivator.
THE GAT CUOI*.
For tho oat crop an early prepara¬
tion of tiio ground as soon as it is dry
enough to work, followed by an early
sowing of tho seed, almost invariably
produces better results than sowing in
the later spring months. While an
exceedingly important crop, and a
rather exhausting one, it is most com¬
monly relegated to the field deemed
least desirable for other grains, and
the fact that it succeeds better under
unfavorable conditions than most
other grains is the probablo cause of
tho treatment it often receives. Nev¬
ertheless, oats respond readily to good
cultivation, and on a poor soil manur¬
ing is as necessary in for other crops.
Very rich land, however, is not re¬
quired or best, for on soil so rich that
oals and wheat are liable to lodge
from a too luxuriant growtli of the
straw there are other crops that will
be more profitable.
A good friable soil is best for the
oat, although it will do well on still
clay and land with large proportions
of sand or gravel if of moderately
good fertility. Of all the grains it
seems (o he the one best adapted to a
great variety of soils. It is cultivated
throughout a wide range of latitude,
and under ordinary conditions with
comparatively few injuries from in-
vects or diseases, thus making it, on
the average, one of our surest crops.
On ground well prepared and sown
early the rapid growth of the plants
insures tho crop exemption from in¬
jury by weeds, and no further atten¬
tion is required until the harvest.
As showing the ability of the crop
to take care of itself under good natur¬
al conditions, even when tho prepara¬
tion has been faulty, good crops have
been raised on land not ploughed in
the spring, by simply harrowing in
tho seed, but such cultivation is not
advised. Without any question, the
oat is the leading food for horses, and
its rapidly increasing use as a human
food i3 yearly adding to its importance
as a farm crop.
To the above it may be added, as
the result of three years’ experiments
with oats at the Illinois station, that
tho largest yield of grain in 1888 and
1890 was from 2 1-2 bushels of seed
per acre, and in 1889 from 3 1-2 bush¬
els. With one exception, sowing prior
to April 7 gave tho best results. The
depth of sowing giving the best
results varied from ono to four inches
and was not the same in any two sea¬
sons. Of tho many varieties tested
there appears to have been a striking
difference in the yield of (lie largest
producers when compared with each
other in different years.— [Now Y’ork

IVire Finer than Ilair.
Wo are at work just now on somo
pretty small wire, says a manufacturer
in an interview. It is 1 -500th of an
inch in diameter—filter than tho hair
on your head, a great deal. Ordinary
fine wire is drawn through steel plates,
but that wouldn’t do for this work,
because if the hole wore away ever so
little, it would make tlie wire larger,
and that would spoil tho job. Instead,
it is di awn through what is practically
a hole in a diamond, to which there is
of course no wear. Those diamond
plates arc made by a woman in New
York, who has a monopoly of the art
in this country. The wire is then run
through machinery, which winds it
spirally with a layer of silk thread
that is .0015 of an inch in thickness—
even finer than the wire, you see. This
wire is used in making tiio receiving
instruments of ocean cables, tho gal¬
vanometers used in testing cables and
measuring insulation of covered
wires.

Justice in China.
A remarkable decision is reported from
Klukiang, in China. A gambler forged
a larpo number of notes for $1,000 each
on his brother’s bank and put them into
circulation. When these notes were pre¬
sented at the bank tho forgery was dis¬
covered and payment was refused, where¬
upon the enraged holder, storming the
building, dragged the manager before
the magistrate. Tho latter held that,
since the writing and marks of the false
notes were so like thoso of the regular
bank notes that ordinary people could
not distinguish between them, the bank
would have to honor, and ho accordingly
made out an order to this effect. As a
result of this decision the bauk lias been
forced to suspend payment, while the
author of the mischief escapes punish¬
ment.

Deafness Can’t be Cured
By local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con¬
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imper¬
fect bearing, and when it is entirely the inflam¬ closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless
mation can be taken out and this tube re¬
stored to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in¬
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that we
cannot cure by taking Hail’s Catarrh Cure.

An Amusing Game.

into two opposing sides and sit in two
half circles at tho same distance every
way around a gentleman’s silk hat
placed on the floor in the centre. Two
differently colored packs of cards are
then given, ono to each party, and by
them equally dealt out to each player.
The aim is for each player to throw a
card into the hat in the centre, which
is not nearly so easy a thing to do as
may be supposed, and the floor is soon
littered with the cards which fail to
go into the hat. The game is played
till botli packs aro exhausted; then
thoso cards that are in the hat are
counted, and the side that lias most of
its own color wins. This game may
also be played by each player being
singly opposed to each other and by
the players standing up instead of sit¬
ting. It requires a considerable knack
to do it well, and to throw the card in
such a manner that it falls into Ibe
hat. — [Brooklyn Citizen.
