t.r, A Ray ol Liglii For woman's guidance is found in the fact that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescript tion cures female weakness and the dis eases of the delicate womanly organs which darken the lives of so many worn-, en with suffering and sorrow. That ray of light has penetrated many darkened chambers where women moaned in mis ery, and has guided them out to health and happiness. Favorite Prescription " is not a tonic, not a palliative, but a pos itive cure for the diseases, which are peculiar to women. It gives vigor and vitality. It banishes nervousness, head ache, and all the aches which come from a diseased condition of the womanly organs. A temperance medicine, it con tains neither alcohol nor narcotics. I was troubled for three years with ulceration and female weakness and my doctor gave ms but little relief," writes Mrs. Lulu Hunter, of. Allentan, St. Louis Co., Mo. " I saw an adver tisement in the paper of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. I began the use of it about a year ago.-! took five bottles of it, and one bottle of Golden Medical Discovery,' and my health is better now than it was for years. I have also recommended these medicines to some of my friends, who suffered from female weakness, and good results have followed." r MAKES WEAKAVfcNEN -AMP SICK WOM&M WELL. DEAHi FOLDED HANDS.

Hake tke Silo Ileep, With Smooth Walls and I'ecli 'flioronghly. Make the silo deep, for the greater the depth the greater will be the pressure on that below, thus forcing out air from the fodder. and Insuring better silage. Shallow silos as a rule give less satisfactory results than deep ones, as there are larger air spaces in i FILLING A SMALL ROUND SILO. the silage owing to lack of pressure. Wherever practicable the silo should have a depth of not less than 24 feet, while more satisfactory results may be expected if it Is ten feet deeper. Make the silo walls smooth. After the silage Is placed in the pit It should settle evenly and easily. If the walls are perfectly vertical and smooth, the conditions for settling will be favora ble. Where stone is used, a coat of water lime cement must be used to make a good surface. As silage con tains acid, this smooth surface will gradually become eaten and rough, so that from year to year, as seems nec essary, a light wash of cement should be brushed over the wall to make it smooth. Where wood is used, the lin ing " boards should be dressed on one sldfe. The wall on the inside should be perfectly plumb and smooth from the top of the silo to the foundation wall, from the top of which there may be a slight bevel to the floor. In any form of wooden silo, excepting the round, It is desirable .that the inside lining boards be nailed on vertically. The silage will then slip down' easily. Have as few corners as possible. Upon the thoroughness of the packing usually depends the character of the preservation. Most of the waste which occurs where silage has been well put in occurs at the surface, against, the doors, at the sides and in the corners. Use gas tar on wooden silos, for when applied hot It is considered the best known preservative of wood avail able for common use. Even put on cold, If not too thick for rapid painting, it is a superior. preservative. Tar may also be thinned with gasoline without the use of heat. As gasoline rapidly evaporates into a gas which is very in flammable much care should be used. The illustrations, from publications of the .Wisconsin station, give an idea of the 'appearance and method of filling a round silo and -explain in a measure the process of constructing a silo of this kind. Fig. 1 shows a method of laying and leveling the foundation. A is a center post with top level with top of proposed wall. B B are straight edge boards nailed to stakes driven in the ground. C is a piece of straight edge timber fixed to turn on a pin at A. B B are all nailed level with top of post A. Fig. 2 shows the construction. The sills are 2 by 4 inches in two foot sec tions, with the ends cut on the slant of a radius of the silo circle. These should be sawed out with much care. After being bedded . in mortar they may" be toenailed together. The plates are the same, spiked to top of studs, which are 2 by 4 inches, a foot apart. Short FIG. I. LEVELING FOUNDATION FIG. II.

In the market garden all sorts of schemes hai to be followed to save labor In blanching the plant the art of removing the natural bitter quality. At times the plants are set close to gether so as to partially shade one another, and finally boards are set up right against the plant in the rows. At other times albino varieties are em iployed that seem blanched because they. develop no green orchlorophyllous matter irTtuelr structure. But the bit ter taste remains. To have good celery the process of earthing up must 'be continuous. It requires a very rich soil, and if plenty of water can be given sp much the let ter, says Mrehan's Monthly.

LAUNCHING THE BATTLESHIP OHIO. A Great Naval Pageant in Harbor of the City of San Francisco. the ATTENDED BY MR. M'KINLEY. The Real Object of the President's Long Trip Across the Continent Immense -Gatherings Warships of Pacific Squadron Fired Salutes By Telegraph to tlie Morniuc Btar San Fbancisco, May 18. Port u natrly, Mrs. McKin ley's condition to day permitted President McKinley to attend the launching of the battleship Ohio from the yards of the Union Iron Works. To witness the launch ing of this ship, named in honor of his native State, was the real object of the President's long trip across the continent, and was the event which has attracted to the Pacific coast the Governors of three States, the . Ohio congressional delegation, several United States Senators, and many other notable and distinguished peo ple. Dramatic and picturesque as was the sight of 14,000 tons of steel sliding into the full breasted tide of San Fran cisco bay it was not so splendid and r a. il r magmnceni as me ' Great Naval Pageant which accompanied it nor as pro foundly impressive as the greeting extended to the President by the 4,000 employes of the ship yards. When the President left the sick room of his wife this morning, every arrangement had been made to notify him on the instant of any change for the worse in her condition. The phy sicians assured him there were no in dications of a set-back, but at his re quest telegraphic connections were made at the wharf and at the ship yard, and, save tor the time he was on the water, he was not a minute away from direct connection with the Scott residence. He was driven to the wharf in a closed carriage, escorted by a Eoiad of mounted police. The cabinet and other distinguished guests were already aboard the transport tug Sloan, which was to convey the party to the Union Iron worns, two miles up the bay, when he arrived. A Triomphal Sail. The President's flag, an eagle and shield on a blue field, was flying from the main mast and the Union Jack was at the bow as he stepped smilingly upon the gangway to the accompani ment of the cheers of the thousands who blackened the neighboring pier heads. - Then began the sail over the shining waters of the bay. It proved to be a triumphal journey, the like of which has not been witnessed in this country since Admiral Dewey, upon his return from the Philippines, sailed up the Hudson on the Olympia. Every craft in the harbor was decked out in gayest attire, and the city in the background was a perfect mound of waving flags. Every wharf on the sea front swarmed with people. Up near thtj ship yards the Grim War Ships. of the Pacific squadron were swinging at anchor with streams of signal flags extending fore and aft off the peaks from prow to taffrail. Near Goat Island lay the transport Sheridan, travel -stained from her long journey across the Pacific. She had just arrived from the Philippines, and still had on board the Forty-second and Forty- sixth United States volunteer infantry, which she had brought home. The President saw her at once and requested that the course of the Slocum should be changed to allow him to pass near her. As the Slocum approached the big transport there was a scene of almost frenzied enthusiasm in the air. The soldiers, all in their service uni forms, rushed to the sides and rent the air with cheer upon cheer at the sight of the President of the United States come to welcome them home. This welcome from the soldiers was only the beginning. As the Slocum drew near, the line of steel clad thun derers of the deep, with jackies lining the rails, the marine guards drawn up aft and officers in full uniform on the bridges, a puff of smoke burst, like a white balloon, from tbe port quarter of the battleship Wisconsin, Admiral Casey's flagship. Boom came the re port. It was the first gun from the ships, tbe first of twenty one. Each of the warships, the big, savage battle ship Iowa, the long, lean cruisers Philadelphia and Adams, the little torpedo boat Farragut and the revenue cutter McCulloch, which was with Dewey at Manila, turned loose their secondary batteries as the Slocum slowly passed by. Beyond the warships the little tug threaded her way through the holi day fleet of steamers, yachts, tugs, barges and every variety of water craft jammed about the front of the ship yard. Each was black with cheering people, and there was hard ly one of them which did not have a saluting gun of some sort to add its voice to the roar of welcome that greeted the President from the dense crowd of workmen gathered upon the pier. Ashore, to the right, was a stand covered with acres of people, and be yond that a hill alive with them. Upon the pier a broad aisle of white muslin ran through the workmen packed on either side. Up this path, arched over with flags and banners, one of them bearing the inscription, "The Oregon 'Has Made Her Record; Watch the Ohio," the President and hia party moved to a stand where a representa tive of the 4,500 employes of the Union Iron Works, in a neat speech, in which he asked a heartfelt blessing upon the head, of the President and expressed tender sympathy for his suffering wife, presented the Presi dent, as a token of the esteem of the workmen, with a gold plate, engraved with a suitable inscription : The Launching, A platform had been built around the prow of the big iron monster, which lay in the very slip in which the famous Oregon was built and from which President Harrison launch ed the monitor Monterey ten years ago. Gathered on the platform were the President and members of the cabinet, Governor Nash, of Ohio, Miss Deshler, his niece, who was to chris ten the ship, Miss Barber. -who was to act for Mrs. McKinley and many uni- ormed omcers of the army and navy Miss Barber and the President stood before the electric appliance, which controlled the guillotine that was to sever the rope which would loose the weight that was to knock out the last beam. Miss Barber, with her finger on the button, was looking intently at the indicator. At -12:22 two and a half minutes before the tide was at its highest, the time set for the launching, there suddenly shot into the face of the indicator the word "ready." Miss Barber pressed the button. The last block Veil away. At the same time Miss Desheler, a young lady of 17, in a light gown, with her dark hair braided aown her back in school girl fashion, let go of the bottle of- champagne suspended at the side of the bow by a red, white and blue ribbon and as . it crashed against the side she uttered the words "I christen thee n inc.

Released from its bonds, the heavy hull of 14,000. tons of steel went ploughing through the thick grease of its cradle. Slowly at first, then faster and faster, she slid down the ways taking the flood majestically and piling up the water in great waves before her. The band crasned, the whistles . blew and the multitude shouted. No ship ever given to the American navy has taken her initial plunge into the sea under more favor able auspices, or in the presence of a more distinguished company. The trip back to the ctiy was almost a repetition of the journey to the yard. There was the same wild demonstra tion from sea and shore. ATTEMPT TO LYNCH NEGRO MURDERERS. White Man Killed and Robbed at McCon- nellBvlIle Mob Attack the Jail, Bat Pail to Secure Murderers. Bv Telegraph to tbe Morning Star. Connellsville, Pa., May 18. Five thousand frantic white people surrounded . the fragile little lockup in the town hall here to night. Be hind the cell bars tremble William Fairfax and his wife, "Black El," both colored, and who had mst mur dered William Moore, assistant yard- master in the Baltimore and Ohio vards here and a man well known in Fayette and West Moreland railroad eircles for many years. The tragedy developed so quickly that it took the breath from the townspeople. The streets were crowded with the Satur day night throngs. William Moore and Baggage Master Johnston, of tbe Fairmont branch train, walked down Main street and turned in towards the Hotel Ilaas, , on Water street, through a rear' alley. Johnston had left Moore, and the latter, be fore he bad gone a moment, was assaulted.suddenly by Fairfax and his wife, who threw stones. Several peo ple saw the woman dart forward, and tbe black man also, each hurling the missiles. Moore was struck with a brick on the head and fell forward. Quick as a flaBh Fairfax leaned down over the prostrate victim, jerked his watch from bis pocket, took bis money from hisclothirig, and then with wan ton brutality took the unconscious body in his arms and burled it over a stone wall, a distance of thirty feet. Moore was not dead when hurled from the stone wall, but the fall broke his neck and he died instantly. In a moment the town was afire. The murder was right in the heart of it. The woman continued to stone back the crowd which pressed her. Fair fax in tbe confusion fled. Police man Charles Still wagon took the woman and hustled her to the lockup. In the meantime search began for Fairfax. He ran up the rear stairs of a vacant house and was there betrayed by a woman who saw him secrete himself. He was bustled up the dark alley and before the crowd knew of it he had been placed in the lockup next his wife. The Jail Attacked. In a few minutes afterwards the lock up wassurrounded by ahowling mobof infuriated men. In the midst of them wre Wm. Moore's three sons, crying and adding to the excitement and the bitterness o the crowd. Inside who me muraerers were a nanaiui ot officers who blockaded the narrow aisle leading from the outer door to the cells. The men on the outside beat this in. But the police remained firm The crowd kept battering at the doors entreating the officers to give up the prisoners, and shouting "bring him out to the rope." "Lynch hjm." A few minutes before 10 o clock a few ringleaders succeeded in getting on the inside and opened fire with revolvers at the negroes through the cell doors. For several minutes this fusilade continued. The officers shot into the air to frighten the people. Suddenly down the street came a crowd of men bearing a telephone pole which the crowd took and using it as a battering ram began to knock down the walls of the building. In- the meantime Sheriff George A. Mc Cormick, of Fayette county, had been notified and with a large posse is being rushed to Connellsville from Union town on a freight, the intention being to take the prisoners under escort to the train and get them into the jail at Uniontown. Battered Down the Walls. By 11:30 o'clock the infuriated mob had used the battering ram so effec tively that the outer wall of the build ing separating the hose carriage from the aisle of the lock, broke through. Soon a giant hole gaped. Exposed and showing plainly . under the light within stood the negro Fairfax: The sight was maddening. The battering ram bent and twisted the cell bars till the negro stood exposed so that he could have been dragged out. But the officers, headed by County Detective McBtth, stood before the man, thwart ing the work of the ram, standing on it ' with their feet to stop its work. McBeth calmly informed the men at the head of the ram, "if you break through, the-first man that enters the cell dieb." He held his pistol in his hand. A man appeared with a rope, swinging tbe loop high over the heads of the crowd, but none were brave enough to face death at the hands of the officers. Lynchers Polled. Shortly after midnight William Moore, the eldest son of the murdered man mounted the steps in front of the lockup and said : ! "For my mother's sake and for my own sake I ask the mob to disperse. I do not want the negro dragged out and you should therefore not want him." Father John Burns, pastor of the Immaculate Conception church also spoke to the crowd and asked them to preserve the good name of the town 8S did Burgess Josiah B. Kurtz. The crowd listened attentively and res pectfully but renewed the efforts to get the negro as soon as the speakers had finished. - Cornells ville, Pa., May 19, 1 :40 A. M. This morning Sheriff McCor mick, by a clever ruse succeeded in eluding the mob and placing the Fair fax couple on a special train; and started for Uniontown jail with his prisoners. ALBANY STRIKE AMICABLY SETTLED If the Agreements Are Kept ? There Will be No More Trouble. THE CITIZENS: ARE REJOICING. It Cost tbe Live of Two Prominent Citi zens and Entailed an Expense of Over $39,000 Upon the County Con cessions Made to Strikers. Bv Ttflagrapli to the iuornluir 8tr. Albany, May 18 The great rail road strike, lasting twelve days, re quiring the presance of 3,000 mem bers of the National Guard in the city, costing the lives of two promi nent citizens, and entailing an ex pense to the county of Albany of over $39,000, is amicably settled, and if the agreements are kept there will be no trouble for three years at east. The ominous calm, which succetded the killing of two inoffensive citizens two days ago by national guardsmen defending property, was succeeded this afternoon and evening by hys terical enthusiasm .when public bell towers and city newspapers pro claimed that the twelve days' strike on the street railways of five cities bad been settled. Flags flying from public and private buildings, horses and wagons decorated with bunting and the national emblem, citizens car rying small flags in their hacds and enthusiastic youths and otherwise dig nified citizens chasing after the cars, marked some of tbe earlier scenes of tbe afternoon. The repair wagon left the traction company's barn with its own old Union crew aboard and go ing along the street received an ova tion. It was decorated with flags aad escorted by a jojful crowd very differ ent from the angry mob that had fol lowed the cars the last few days. To night several of the lines are running in this city and all of them in the other cities, and by noon to-morrow all the lines will be running'on sched ule time with Union men. As is usual both sides to the con troversy claim the credit. From the face of the agreement it is evident that the striking men won these con cessions: Increasing night men and extra men's wages to twenty cents per hour. Granting men the right of ap peal from a decision of an inspector or tbe superintendent to the traction company's executive board. The road to pay any employe for lost time when suspended and found not guilty. Em ployes permitted to ride on their own divisions free by showing their badge. No discrimination' against strikers who have not committed violence. General Oliver waited for some time to have Sheriff McCreery notify him that the strike was ended but finally ordered the return of the troops to their homes. J. P. Morgan & Co. announce that two thirds of the stock of the Chicago, Burlington & Quiucy Railroad Com pany has been deposited, thus mark ing the consummation of tbe deal by which the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific Railroad Companies acquire the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy.
