A CLOSE SHAVE. The Story Told by a Secret- Service Detective. Shadowing a Woman Sospsotod of Trying to Poisou a Cabinet Officer. In th? summor of 1803 a member of the Cabinet received a buket of flowers ut his desk. They were placed on the desk while he was at lunch, and the col¬ ored attendant who received them stated that he took them from the hands of a well-dressed boy. They were flowers of which the official was particularly fond, and he spent some time admiring the gift an l inhaling the perfume. Within a quarter of an hour ho was taken sud¬ denly ill and had to bo sent home in a carriage. There were several stories whispered about, but I believe, from what followed, that tho bouquet was pois¬ oned and had been sent in in hopes to cause his death. Ha was done up for four or five days anyhow, and I received orders to make every effort to hunt down the person who had sent in tho bouquet. It was little I had to encourage mo in the start. I got a description of the bov, however, and after a day or two I found pcopl; of whom lie had inquired his way from tho station to the Secre¬ tary's office. It was easy enough after that to trace him as having come on from Baltimore. He came alone and he had the bouquet in a band-box. The bouquet was tied with a grass cord, and I took this cord and went to Baltimore and scarcely rested a moment until I had seen the owner of every green-house. I applied to twenty or more before I found the one who had put up the flowers. He remembered the circumstance, identified the cord and described thc buyer as a handsome-looking lady about 35 years of age who had come in a hack. The vehi¬ cle was drawn by a white and a bay horse, and inside of two hours I had found the driver. He described the lady about as the florist had done, and added that she had gold-filled front teeth, blue eyes, a little scar on her chin and was sharp and decisive in her speech, She had taken the hack at the stand and left it at the same place. If this woman intended the death of the official she had gone to the green¬ house in an attire selected for the occa¬ sion, and one she would not wear again on the street. I hung about the various hotels until certain that she was not a guest at any of them, and then I could only trust to accident for success. On two occasions I caught sight of a face in a carriage which answered the dcscrip- tion and followed the vehicle without success. Each time it escaped me by rapid driving. Again I caught sight of the lady on the street. 8ho entered a dry goods store and I followed. She soon passed out and I was at her heels, but she dodged into a crowd gathered about the scene of an accident and I lost her. An hour later I suddenly dis- covered that I was being shadowed. 1 did considerable walking, turning and dodging before I would admit that this was thc case, but I finally had to ac- knowledge that the hunter was being hunted. J My “Shadow” was a medium-sized man abont 40 years old, well dressed, respectable looking, nnd doing his work in the neatest manner. He did not lose sight of me until he saw me enter my hotel, where I brought up about six o clock in the evening. I had no clue connecting the man with the woman I was looking after, but it was natural for me to infer that there was some connec- tion. I wrote out and made my daily report, ate supper, smoked a cigar, and then started for the theatre. It wouldn t be at all strange if I found my lady there even if I had thc seat next to her. I was within twenty feet of the door of the theatre when a rough and ragged-looking man, who certainly spoke in a disguised voice, stopped me and said: “Mister, I’m a discharged soldier, and I’ve been sick and am out of money, Won’t you buy this revolver of me for He pulled the weapon from his pock- et and shoved it towards me, muzzle first. Before I could comprehend the full import of his words there was a flash and a report, and I was dimly con- scious of falling. Four or five minutes later I came to myself to find that a crowd had gathered, and that I was in the hands of a doctor. A bullet from that revolver had plowed along my skull, making a wound which laid me off for a month. The fellow who sought to murder me escaped without pursuit, and is this day undetected. If he was not the person who had shadow- ed me in the afternoon he was in that man’s employ, and both were acting for the woman. It was afterwards ascer- tained that she was a woman who was notably vindicative, and that ghe left for England before I was recovered from my wound .—Detroit Free Press. A Missouri Execu ion. “Aren’t executions a part of your du- ties that you’d rather dispense with!” asked an Eastern friend of a Missouri sheriff. “I never perform any executions.” “Why, I thought nearly all sheriffs were occasionally obliged to hang some one?” “You forget that this is Missouri. AU I have to do is to make a show of defend- ing the jail keys and then banding them over to the boys at last, They attend to everything after that.” —Estelline {Dak.) Bell. Potatoes are imported into New York for six months in the year. Nearly every ocean steamer reaching that port from Ireland, Scotland, England, Wales and Germany brings its quota. A White Stai steamer brought over on one voyage last winter no less than 22,000 sac^s of pota, toes. FOB THE FARM AND HOME, Bleaching Celery. It takes but from eight to ten days to blanch celery in warm weather, nnd about four or five weeks in cold weather. A new plan of blanchingin worm weather is now adopted by some of our best growers, and found to work admirably, os it saves much labor and there is less danger of rust and rot. They half hill, as it is termed, with a hoe or with a small one horse plow, if a horse can bo used, throwing up a small ridgo of the soil on each side of the row, just up to the plants, but not against them much; then take inch boards ten inches wide, lay along on each side of the row, crowding the lower edge close up to the bottom of the plants, then take hold of the outer edges of the boards and bring them up together, placing over them clamps made of No. 9 wire—so made that the boards will bo about two inches apart, or a little more, if the celery is large. For the Into crop the soil is fouud the best for blanching. In this it is necessary to use judgment about hilling up. It will not do to commence it while the weather is too hot and wet as there is danger of its rotting. It should never be banked while the stocks are at all wet. Young Colli. When the young colts arrive tome pains should be taken to rear them in the best manner. There is considerable mortality among young colts which may be avoided. This mostly occurs among farmers whose marcs arc at work in the field. The rearing of coits upon farms is just now a very profitable business, i 8 jje encouraged by good advice and wise management. The best way is have the colts run with the mares and to give the mares an occasional rest for the colts to suck. When tho colts are ghut up and turned t0 thc mare at noon and night only the milk is heated by the hard work of the mare, and the ud- dcr j g distended, often painfully, and both mare and colt suffer. Thc milk is a ig 0 ) es9 j n quantity, for when a colt guckg six or e i g h t times in a day the sup- p ; y G f milk will easily be double the quantity given when the colt is turned to the mare only twice a day. Besides, when the colt accompanies the mare it becomes used to its surroundings in the field and on the road, and takes its first lessons for its future training. ~Ntu> York Times. CompacttnB Iaind for Corn. On the question of the rationale of corn-growing, a correspondent of the National Stockman has the fol- ! lowing, „ j ! * ‘Corn wants dry land even more than wheat or other small grains. This is in par t because only as the soil is dry can it be got to a high temperature early in the season. One of the important advan- tages from planting corn on sod, or over a ina ss of coarse manure, is that those under the furrow keep the soil porou», an d thus admit tlie warmer air to tho roots. On any heavy soil tho plowing f 0 r corn should be shallow, and after plowing it should not be rolled or other- wise packed, except as is necessary in cultivating to make a mellow seed bed. I have often seen thc line where a stone- boat was drawn across a field for corn after plowing distinctly visible by the smaller plants where tho soil was too much compressed. This was when rains jj ad a ] relu ]y sufficiently compacted the Bo jj. but this is the condition of most common lands containing some clay. In a very dry time, after planting corn, this rcgu j t m i g bt be reversed, but even then the improvement would be more due to t, e ^t er tilth thau to compacting of the Bur f ace _ i think much of tlie roller for ot j u . r crr) p S) but it is not adapted corn on land as heavy aa most of m ; ne> « The Sheep Oatl-I ly. The sheep gad-fly appears (luring the Bummer months. It is not unlike the small horse fly in appearance, the color being light ash, dotted and lined with black. After mating, thc female seeks to deposit her young about the nose of the sheep. The animals show their worry from these insects by shaking their droop- ing heads and stamping their feet, aud often, in fact, by flight. The bots are said to pass up the nose by means of hooks and spines, causing an increased flow of mucus, on which they feed. The mag- gots when full grown are about an inch in length. Youatt and Clark deny that special harm is wrough by these bots, but this denial does not correspond with the observations of leading sheep men, who, Prof. Cook declares, are correct in the opinion that the bots do serious in- jury to the animal, and when very nu- merous, especially if they pass to the brain, may, and frequently do, cause death. When suffering from this cause the sheep lose their appetite, seem in- clined to butt, and these symptoms are followed by stupor and great weakness, The mouth and nasal membranes be- come inflamed and there is an unusual discharge from the nose. To render thc “ iinal8 from the ttttnck . shee P men have practised, with good effect, tarring their noses. The operation is simplified by boring two inch holes into logs, into which salt is placed and the edges then smeared with tar. In reach- ing for the salt the sheep receives the ap- plication.— Cultivator. The Sliepr or (he Plow. The shape of the plow is important. This fact has now come to be so clearly acknowledged that plows are made with especial referenoe to the kind of work to be done. There is the prairie breaker, adapted to tough sod; the sward plow, in tw0 principal forms, is for flat and lap fur- TO ws, and stubble-plows in great variety, from the curve that carries the furrow slice gradually into the position in which it is to be left, to that which carries the slice shnpelv up and then thrusts it sideways and over into position. The next im- portant means is the double furrow- trench plow, which is simply one plow before another on the same beam. The first plow takes a rather thin furrow, which, with a sharp turn, throws the trash, or a thin skim of sod, into tho bot- tom of the proceeding furrow. The true or thick furrow slice immediately follows, covering all closely in. Another variety is the trench-plow proper, or deep tiller, designed for special crops when extra deep tillage is necessary in connection with heavy manuring, or for orchard cultivation. Such plowing should never be undertaken unless you are sure the depth of soil will fully warrant the depth of plowing, for the turning up of the under soil often produces infertility for years, especially in stiff clays, unless large amounts of manure are used. It is far better to get depth of tilth by means of the true subsoil plow, which, running in the bottom of a furrow, loosens, raises, and pulverizes the subsoil, but leaves it in the same position it originally had. Thus the soil may be pulverized to any depth the strengthof the team will allow. But neither this nor trench-plowing is admissible on soils that ever become thoroughly water-soaked, since soil saturated with water for any considerable length of time inevitable runs together, thus destroying its permeability. It is only within the last forty years that improvements have been originated that have made American plows superior to any other made for t h e purpose required in turu ; ng an d disintegrating nil soils, from t p, e lighter sandy soils to the toughest clays. Useful Hints on Cheese-Waking. In an essay on cheese-making, delivered by J. B. Harris, Antwerp, N. Y., before the Ontario Dairymen’s Association, a number of usoful hints were given that can hardly fail to prove of assistance to many readers. Some are here presented in brief. For summer and fall cheese, Mr. Har- ris uses rennet enough to produce coagu- lation in fifty minutes, with the milk at a temperature of from 86 to 88 degrees. In the spring, when making fodder cheese, he uses one-third more rennet and less salt. His reasons for this difference is to facilitate the ripening process, in order fh nt the cheese may be ready for market at the earliest day possible. Four ounces of rennet for summer and six ounces for spring, with salt in proportion, is Mr. Harris’s own rule. Two messes of milk produced on dif ferent soils, although treated the same, wd i produce cheese more or less variable as regards moisture. The maker of the cheese must regulate the matter by vari- ations in cutting, scalding and stirring, For instance, when it is known that moisture predominates in the milk of any given dairy it is advised to cut finer, scald more and stir longer, Stirring ought to begin directly after cutting aud continue from ten to fifteen minutes before heating and go on for half an hour continuously, and say ten more after the heat is withdrawn. It is advised to heat slowly at first, gradually increasing as the whey sepa- rates. Tlie heat must be kept up until the curd is matured and then well aired before salting. The usual temperature in summer is 98 degrees, but as the season advances and the milk becomes richer it is necessary to go as high as 100 degrees. A great secret in cheese mak ing is to draw the whey at the first indi cation of acidity, After the whey is removed and while the subsequent stirring proceeds, a new acid makes its appearance in the body of the curd, which seems to depend for its development upon the action of the air, and the presence of which experience has shown to be an essential element in the make-up of cheese. This acid should b c allowed to develop properly before the addition of salt, as the presence of that substance will preclude its appear- auce. Curd should contain about 35 per cent, moisturo when pressed, and dry j out down to 33 per cent, when cured. To determine and retain this proper | proportion of moisture requires judg¬ ment and practice. Household Hints. Borax water whitens aud softens the hands. Linseed oil will remove rust from a stove-pipe. To make paper stick to a wall that has been whitewashed, wash in vinegar or saleratus water. When clothes are scorched remove the stain by placing the garment where the sun can shine on it. Furniture needs cleaning oftentimes. It may be washed off with warm Castile soapsuds, a small place at a time, quickly rubbed dry and then gone over with an oily cloth. Recipes. Broiled Mackerel .—Freshen by soaking in water over night. In the morning dry it and cutiiff the head aud tip of tail, place it between the bars of a but¬ tered fish gridiron and broil to a light brown; lay it on a hot dish and dress with a little butter and pepper. Toasted Potatoes .—Cut whatever num¬ ber may be needed of cold, boiled pota¬ toes into slices lengthwise, about a quarter of an inch thick; dip each slice in flour, and lay them between a wire toaster. Have the fire clear, and when both sides are nicely browned, lay the slices on a hot dish, put a piece of butter on each, and season with pepper and salt. To Pickle Plums, Peaches, and other Fruits. —One-half a pound of sugar to one pound of fruit. Put the fruit in a tin pail or earthern jar with the vinegar and spices. Use stick cinnamon, whole cloves and allspice, cover with vinegar and put it into boiling water and let it renlain till the fruit is soft. Take out the fruit, boil the syrup down and pour it over the fruit while hot. CLIPPINGS FOB THE CCRIOCS.

The apparition was visible for several minutes. Fifty years ago the boys had a very hard time of it.

Truly America developes some strange •haracters. There came to New York some time ago a woman with a history that reads like a romance. She is the daughter of Gen. Malcolm Clarke, of the regular army, who was killed by an Indian whom he had befriended some years ago nnd who left a family of eight children, the result of his marriage with an Indian squaw. Miss Helen Clarke, the eldest of these children, was educa¬ ted at a convent in Cincinnati and is possessed of a very brilliant mind and unusual histrionic talent, and came here to prepare herself for the stage, which she proposes adopting as a profession. Her presence wherever she appeared in the city never failed to attract attention, as her looks proclaim the Indian beyond a doubt. Tall, straight, sinewy, with wiry black hair and the unmistakable Indian features, she presented a remark¬ able appearance, especially when ele¬ gantly attired. She is well known in the West, where her father’s bravery won for himself and children a name, and in Montana, where .she was born and still lives, she holds the position of Com¬ missioner of Public Schools, her duties ki this capacity necessitating her travel¬ ing much alone over that wild mountain country on horseback, with a revolver in her belt. On one of these pleasant lit¬ tle jaunts, while going through a lonely spot known as Prickly Bear Canon one misty November morning, Miss Clarka discovered the bodies of five road agents hanging from limbs of trees where they had been made to answer to the Vigilan¬ te for their crimes the night previous, a sight that would have rather shaken tlie nerves of a New York society woman, but this child of the howling West was too well accustomed to life on the border to be frightened at anything of that sort and rode calmly on. Her father and one of her brothers were shot down before her, and from her infancy she has been used to danger. She is highly connected on her father’s side and inherits fortune from him, while her mother still remain* with her tribe, the Black Feet Indians. While here Miss Clarke was for some time the guest of Gen. and Mrs Palmer, the latter being her cousin. She thought New York life tame and New York wo¬ men rather uninteresting. They lacked the nerve that constitutes one of the chief charms of a Western belle of whom Miss Clarke is a fair sample .—New York Herald. Fnrnbnro Lumber. Furniture dealers are to-duy using lum¬ ber which was called worthless ten years ago. Whitewood or poplar is used in immense quantities, notwithstanding its warping qualities. The growing scarci¬ ty of our natural supply of lumber leads manufacturers to experiment with so- called worthless varieties. Cypress is working into favor for architectural fin¬ ish, and we would not be surprised if some enterprising manufacturer should come out with a most desirable piece of furniture, possessing a delicate ami finely marked grain, and yet consisting of noth¬ ing but unpretentious cypress. Hard pine makes a nice looking job when fin¬ ished in good shape, but has the serious objection of being full of pitch. Cypress has much the same appearance of hard pine, but the pitch is happily absent. The wood commonly known as gum has been successfully utilized. It is being worked into a great many forms, despite its well known warping qualities, which are represented as being so great that the lumber “will not stay in the same county two successive nights.” We nrt informed that picture frames have been successfully made of gum wood, and rumor adds that the very qualities that have hitherto condemned it have beeD utilized in the manufacture of seif-rock¬ ing cradles.— Forest, Forge and Farm. J THE THIRTEEN CLUB. Thu Miary of a Corioo* New York Combi- nation. There are three rather unique clubs in New York; that, judging become by their recent growth, / will in time quite cele- 0 ne is the Thirteen club which meets at dinner at7:13o'clock on the 13th of each month, to ™'i disprove the popular •ea.k w, who sit down to a table will die before the year is out . The dabStarted several years ago with thirteen at a table, but so popular have their dinners become by sc their - was wsa Brigh- dinner next week at the t«, n Beach hotel, Coney Island, thirteen tables, each seating thirteen, will be pro- vtdeti. There are thirteen courses on the menu, thirteen at table, thirteen speeches made, and the number is introduced in every possible wav and shape. Not be- mg able ii * to _i make the menu card in the tsi.tUTSiJr j the club effectually explodes SSSS. tlie 0 „ v 0 theory the of the fatality of the number and club is gaining recruits every dinner, and will have a headquarters and take its place among social clubs next season. The other club is the Twilight club, which meets at dinner every fortnight, and after the cloth has been removed dis- tions of the speakers, who are generally selected because they are known to be antagonistic. The 'antagonism of the speakers prevents the club from ever be- ing a mutual admiration society, and con- sequently its dinners have become very attractive to a large class who enjoy this species of intellectual sparing. The Athpr iq known nf thp tlirro ' 1 | indeed, though with a larger . member- . g^jp than either, little is known of it out- side of its members. It is known as the Peanut club, and the badge of member¬ ship—a peanut—must be worn on every occasion as an ornament or amulet, in metal, jewelry or carved wood. Any member accosting another who cannot display the badge can call on him for a dinner for as many of the club as he likes. It may be the call may be made in the middle of the night and the challenged party aroused from his slumbers; or it may be that the demand may be made in the breakers of Coney Island or Long S penalty is established. The result is that many of the members carry their emblem of membership attached to a string around the neck, and wear it night and day. The gentleman who was aroused from his slumbers wore his this way. The Hon. Jacob Hess, of the subway commission, was accosted the other day by a fellow member in the surf at Long Branch, but he was prepared, having the golden peanut that generally dangles from his watch chain in his mouth. If the challenging party cannot produce the emblem if required by one who has, he is called on to pay the penalty, and in this case it took the form of a very elaborate dinner at the West End hotel. Mallahan, the trainer and 3 i backer • ot c Herald, TT n xi the new aspirant for fistic honors, tucked his ivory peanut into his ear one night while acting as master of ceremonies at a fistic gathering, and so was not caught when Peters, the wine merchant, chal¬ lenged him. The emblem of the club is becoming common in all circles. The imitation is generally in gold and worn as a watch charm. There is quite an excitement among the dudes in the Knickerbocker because some tradesman has obtained a list of the members and forwarded them to the club address in his business circular. It is against the rule in the club that its letter boxes should be used for advertising purposes, and generally all advertising circulars are destroyed by the wholesale; but in this case the wily tradesman used square tinted envelopes, such as ladies generally use, and the superscription was in slender, tall, fashionable, feminine the chirography, and the disappointment of receivers may have heightened their sense of club etiquette.— Constitution.
