MISTAKEN IDENTITY.
How an Innocent Man was
Falsely Accused of a Crime.
A Case Which Causes One to Doubt the
Value of Circumstantial Evideuee.
About twenty years ago, says the New
York Sun, a robber entered the furm
house of John West of Indiana, and,
'being discovered while prowling around
the house, be shot West in order that ho
might make his escape. The hour was
'midnight and there was a bright harvest
moon lighting up the room in which the
shooting took plncc. West had a club
beside his bed, and he gave the intruder
n powerful blow with this before the shot
was fired. The bullet entered his nbdo-
men and he lived about three days and
was perfectly conscious all the time. He
declared on his dying bod that his ntur-
dercr was a young man named Solonv n
Richards, a lawless character, who hung
about the village two miles away. Mrs.
West recognized him as well, and when
Richards was arrested and charged with
the crime he did not deny it. There
wasn’t tho slightest doubt of his guilt,
find but for the tirmness of the sheriff
the fellow would have been lynched, lie
had been in jail two weeks before he de¬
clared his innocence. As lie had no
money ho , could ,, not engage a la«Tcr, . but
he made a statenent to the sheriff which

was very
i mtriking. . Both halted , and , looked , , , each :

*\ Not T ’ one man in a , hundred , , would ,. . have
taken . , any stock ... in such , story, , but , , the ,
a
isheriff, singular as it .. may seem, believed
that Richards was telling the truth.

ing was done had been left behind. No

be taken into custody when the farmer
had called out: “Sol Richards, you have
ishot me, but I’ll live to see you hung!”
i All these points were overlooked by
everybody except the sheriff. Mr. and
Mrs. West declared that Sol Richard was
the man; that was evidence enough, es¬
pecially Three weeks when Sol was passed a good-for-nothing. sheriff
had when the
got track of a man who had passed a
toll-gate at an early morning hour carry¬
ing a bundle. Further on ho found that
the man with the bundlo had a bloody
ear. Five miles further and he had en¬
tered a farm house, alleged that he had
met with an accident, and had a scalp
wound dressed. He had journeyed a
hundred miles before the sheriff overtook
him, but here and there lie had sold
fragments of his plunder. When finally
overhauled and arrested he admitted li s
crime almost before a question was asked.
He was a professional tramp, and robbery
was nothing new to him. He was not
only dressed precisely like Richards, but
he resembled him so closely in height,
build, weight and facial expression that
people catne to the jail and called him
Richards. He gave his name as Terry,
but as he could remember little or noth¬
ing of his childhood, and as this was also
the case with Richards, it was generally
believed that they were twin brothers.
The one was released as an innocent man,
and the other was sent to prison for such
a long term as practically assured his
death within the gloomy walls.
Grapes from (lie Desert-
Indio is a way station on the Colorado
desert, about half way between Yuma
and Colton. It is below the sea level and
i# probably the warmest point along the
Une of the railroad. The barren desert
surrounds it upon all sides, and one
would imagine that nothing could be
made to grow in such a bed of sand.
The experiment was singularly success-
ful, however, and not only do grapes and
other fruits thrive and mature ur prising-
ly early, but all kinds of vegetation
flourish when supplied with a proper
quantity of water It is not likely that
the desert in question wM ever become
the Garden of Eden it is impossible to
transform it into, because the process
will cost more than the resulting para-
dree will be worth, but the experiments
at Indio give evidence of the wonderful
possibilities of the broad stretch of
southern country now looked upon as a
barren and wot thk Us desert .—Arizona

Among the South 8ca islanders the
nose is made to be a medium of expres¬
sion of affection and amity. Tribes
swearing everlasting peace seal the com¬
pact with a promiscuous rubbing of noses
against noses; by the same frictional
process maidens declaim their woes at
parting and joys on reunion with other
maidens, the action being attended by—
so sail an eye witness—“the shedding
of a power of teats,” Lovers make their

More Shoulder*.
If there is anything on the farm that
is only less than infamous, it is a sore
shoulder on a horse. It is unnecessary,
there is no excuse for it. Not tho thin¬
nest skinned horse that ever lived need
have a sore shoulder, if his master has
ordinary gumption and conscience.
I have been a great deal in the South-
ern States, and 1 .Jo not remember that I
ever saw a sore shoulder on a horse or a
mule. In this hot climate one might
fairly expect to geo it. but tho planters,
for that very reason perhaps, have
learned to prepare for it, or rather, to
prevent it. This they do by the use of
wooden or corn-husk collars, and by the
abundant use of water.
As soon as the spring work opens the
drivers of the horses should begin to
give careful attention to the shoulders
and the collars. If the animal is thin-
skinned it is well to bathe the exposed
places with tannin to toughen tho hide,
I think this is better than salt water for
this purpose. All ttic mane ought to bo
cut away that cau by any possibility
work under the collar. This may seem
a great deformity on the animal, and so
it is; but it is not nearly so deforming as
a sore shoulder .—Ohio Farmer.

The Potato !*<•«».
Mr. A. W. Cheever once reported in The
New England Farmer several potato fields
badly injured by too free use of Paris
green; and, after remarking on the almost
infinitesimal quantity of tlie virulent poi-
sonrequired to kill an insect, he de¬
scribed his own economical method:
“A leaf killed by the green is as use¬
less to the plant as if eaten by the bug.
We have generally applied the poison
dry, and mixed with very fine plaster of
Paris, at the rate of one part in
to 100 parts of the plaster; and then
without making a very heavy applica¬
tion, the beetles have been thoroughly
cleaned out. It is only necessary to
have the poison remain on the leaves
two days to destroy all that partake of
it. Later hatchings may require subse¬
quent applications. As the insects are
found ujiou tlie tenderest leaves, those
which grow last, there is no necessity for
dusting over the whole of a large hill of
vines, but a little poison shaken into tlie
central portion of tho stems will be quite
as effectual. If one has u large field to
treat it would bo well to cover mouth
and nose with a thin cloth wet
in cold water, while doing the work,
and special caution should bo taken
against getting a particle of the dust
into any flesh wounds or soreS^on the
hands, feet or face. The past season we
applied the poison in water, through a
small sprinkler, which worked better
than anything else previously tried.
One teaspoonful of the pure green in
two aud a half to thr( , € ga | !ons o{ water
was fouod sufficieutly powerful to de
Btroy a)1 the wcevi , 8 within tw0 or three
days after the application. This is put-

nevertheless, and the beetles probably
ate it more reildi | y than jf mixod with

Fowls that must bo fod in summer
should bo fed regularly. If fed only
twice a day, feed lightly in the morning
and give a full feed at night. If fed
but once a day, feed at night.
Very young ducklings are tender at
first, and should neither bo allowed to go
into cold water nor be exposed to chill¬
ing winds while they arc under twenty
days old. Such exposure causes cramp*
and they often die suddenly from theso
results.
All fowls that feather slowly are usu¬
ally hardy—for instance, the Brahmas.
For it is owing to the fact that tho drain
on the system occasioned by quick feath¬
ering does not weaken them. Slow
feathering while growing is indicative of
hardiness.
Hydrangeas in bloom are benefited by
an occasional dose of manure water.
Young plants in their first year like par¬
tial shade in the summer. If the soil
about trees and plants is somewhat poor
applications of liquid manure to them
will greatly assist the crop.
The disadvantages of the ordinary sys¬
tem of settling milk in shallow pans for
raising cream are that a longer period
elapses before the skimming is com¬
pleted, too much space ia required, and
in summer the milk becomes sour before
the whole of the cream is raised.
The great flow of milk of cows is truly
artificial. In a state of nature the cow
gives only the necessary quantity and
gives it only the neccssaiy time to sus¬
tain the calf. The greater and longer
yield of milk is the result of better feed¬
ing, better treatment and longer manipu¬
lation of tho teats. Hence, to increase
tho yield of milk, feed and milk well.
Bathe the horse’s shoulder with cold
water or brine as quick as the collar
comes off, before tho sweat begins to
dry, and rub off the collar and saddle
pieces with a moist cloth. . This will
prevent sore shoulders. All changes of
food should be gradual, but in propor¬
tion to the work. Heavily taxed mus¬
cles makes demands on the stomach;
hence, increase the food after work be¬
gins, never in anticipation. A horse fed
up before he is called to work gets soft
and fat.

But if a horse’s teeth are good it will
generally grind its oats pretty well.
There is a great difference in horses,how¬
ever, in this respect, just as there is in
men. Some bolt their food much more
rapidly and less masticated than others.
But whatever grain you feed, do not let
the horse drink immediately after, If
you do, much of the grain will be washed
out of the stomach without being di¬
gested.
Houaeliolfl Hints.
Never cany a lamp which is burning
from a warm room into a cold one.
Store rooms and closets should be oc¬
casionally aired.
If a bedstead creaks nt each movc-
mentofthe sleeper, remove the slats
and wrap the ends of each in old news¬
papers.

saddled our horses, loaded our ear-
bines and revolvers, buckled cm oui
sabers, and mounted, and away we went
over the mountains, dowu the valleys,
with all eyes watching, but no enemy.
On we went till we came to a field
where there were fifteen head of fine l'at
cattle. We concluded we would borrow
them for a few days. We tumid ttiero
out into the road, and were about to
start, when an old darkey rode up anil
said to us: “Massas, youns betta look
out. Captain Sheets will be up arter
yonns.”
11 Where is Captain Sheets?” inquired
the Lieutenant."
“He’s down dar to de mill.”
“Now, Sambo, you’re lying."
“No, I isn't, Massa.”
“Yes, you are.”
"No, fo’ God I isn’t.”
“How many men has he?”
“A ’hole company, Massa.”
"Well, boy#,” said the Lieutenant,
“we had licttcr git out of this.”
“No, wc will go down and see.”
‘ No, there are too many of them.”
« . We’re going down to see Captain
Sheets.”
So we formed in platoons of fours an 1
sent out our advance guard, and down
wc went to the mill, As we turned
around the hill in full view, there they
were. So we opened on them and
charged, ami as we went charging
through the village tlie women became
terribly excited. We were the first Yanks
they hail seen. They began to scream
and halloo at a terrible rate, I remcm
ber one woman close by the road, who
jumped up and down, and cried,O! Lord,
save my poor husband, and my son Johu,
too 1”
But wait Captain Sheets and his men did
not for the Lord to save them. They
just let their horses do it by carrying
them off.
We concluded to return to camp with¬
Johnnies out borrowing might the cattle, for fear the
take some turn on us and
borrow somc of us.
"We reached camp all right, and what
wonderful feats we had performed! We
had put the whole army to flight, and

8evcn years ago my struggle for life began
with a burning inflammation, (almost as much
to be dreaded as tire). At first attacking me
with pain and aching in the back. The least
cold or over work would aggravate my troub-
1 os. My stomach and liver became deranged,
tongue coated, appetite poor, nerves unstrung
and my sleep troubled. I made a desperate
effort to keep about, butin spite of all my roso-
lutions and the help of physicians, found my-
self growing worse month by month, and my
once powerful constitution completely break-
ingdown. I suffered from chronic inflammation
of the kidneys, rheumatism and catarrh of tho
bladder. Blood would rush to my head, X would
feel faint and weak, and found it difficult to
breathe at times as my heart would throb and
Skip beats. In tho spring of 1880 still more
critical symptoms set in. My terrible agony
no one could tell. My weight was reduced
nearly seventy pounds. A sensoof soreness
anil ruwness was followed by attacks of lnwarl
fever. Wni. H. Filkin’s affidavit Is herewith
given:
