Bourfce Marston, in Scribner.
The recent death of Philip Bonrke Marston adds
a touching Interest to the foregoing one of his
latest poems. While his high qnaltty as a poet has
been widely acknowledged certain . critics and
readers have complained of the mono! our of sad
sess in his work, bat It was more than matched by
the deep and hopeless sadness of his life,- At the
age of three his sight was, bran a ctdeitt in play
ing with other children,, so impaired that hence
forth be saw only, sometimes a flash of -light,
sometimes the waving cf a tree-bough in the wind,
sometimes a glimpse .of the sunset pageant in the
Western ekios. - Kot much of vis on this; and yet
when he lost, -at twenty, even this slight power to
see the world in which he lived, he felt himself
-freshly bereaved. He lost, Lv, at that epoch of
young manhood, far more than this List faint
remnant of vision, for it wa-i then that Death began
to lay waste his life. His mother was taken from,
him first; then the girl to whom he was betrothed;
later on his most cherished friend, Oliver Madox
Browne; and still later h:a two sisters, and his
poet brother-in-law, O'Shartghnessy. It was as if
Fate strove to reconcile him to coming death by
peopling the world of shade?, in-advance, with his
best-beloved ones; so that When he himself died
- there was left of his immediate family only his
father to mourn for him with a hopel-ess and incon
solable sorrow-. In view f such a life of darkness
- and bereavement, is it any wonder that his poem
should have been sad T As he himself wrote r : r
"Still the old paths, an i the old solitude, f ' '
: And still the dark soul jo :rneying on its way,
A little nearer to its goal each day."
He Jias found the goal now. '-. . - -

A KICH DISCOVERY.
.- I met in Richmond the other day the
old man who is known In Western North
Carolina and Western "Virginia . as the
Treasure Hunter, and when I urged a
strong desire to know how he came by
his title, he expressed his willingness to
. sit down for a talk. , :
"To begin, with," he said, . "I am a
single' man, ana nave no-relatives in"
America. I came from England in 1872,
and intended to buy land and settle down
at Greensboro, North Carolina. At Peters
burg, Virginia,'. whils en route, I was
taken sick and robbed of my money,
some $6,000, and when I reached Greens
boro I had only about $75 left. I was
naturally broken up and discouraged, and
after a little time I drifted into the
mountain range to the west of States
ville, found a comfortable cave in which
to live, and became a hunter-hermit. For
v the first three months I saw only two
human faces. -1 became accustomed to
this wild and solitary life, and entered
the towns only when driven' to do so by
want oi provisions or ammunition.
"It was one day in 1873 that I encoun
tered a hunter in the mountains who told
me that I;was regarded by the outside
.world as a treasure hunter, and that there
wasmuch Curiosity concerning my move
ments. It Joad been reported that I had
found a box of gold in a cave, and a score
of men were searching the ranges in the
hopes pf .ineeting with- luck. This was
the first time the idea of treasure , had
crossed my n2nd. -lln my.rough jaunts I
had discovered several caves, but had not
stopped to explore any of them, as I. had
no thought that they had ever been occu
pied by man. When I separated from
. the 7 hunter, -who appeared to be a very
honest man, I sat down to wonder if it
were possible for luck to comeback tome
through -some richT find," and though I
smiled at the thought when it first came
up, I soon became deeply interested, and 1
that night I scarcely slept for speculating
on what might turn up. - -, 7 ;
. "Bright and early next morning I was
oEup the range to the northwest, haviDg
sas my objective point a .cave which I had
sdiscovered months before in tfie - iron
- mountains, southwest of ilorgantown. It
' took me a -day and a half to reach it, for
it was in summer, and the mountains
were covered with - plants, roots, and
vines to obstruct travel. The mouth of
the . cave was under an overhanging
ledge, where I had crept for shelter from
a fierce rain storm, and before leaving
the neigbborhoed I entered it far enough
to see that it was a very rcomy place, and
that fires had been built 'there at some
time by the hands of man. . It seemed
to me as I pursued my. journey that this'
: cave would be more likely than any other
to contain something, but the nearer I
came to it the more ridiculous seemed
the idea of treasure. "Refugees and; de
serters from the Confederate - army 'no
doubt sought the mountains for hiding
places, and after the war they were . in
fested by outlaws and ' moonshiners. I
might possibly find a rusty gun-or knife
: but I could hope for nothing more.' . ?
".I came to the spot" about noon of the
second day, and to tell you the truth I
was quite disgusted with myself for be
ing carried away as I had been. : I built
a fire, cooked a partridgs Ilhad shot,
- and made no move toward entering the
cave "-for . a couple; of hoars. Then" I
' forced myself against my better judg
ment to prepare three or four torches and
light one, and enter .the place. The
opening was about as large as a hogshead,
but. scarcely had I gone ten feet when
the cave became a chamber. There was
a pretty strong draught coming out of it, ,
proving that it had another opening and
the floor and sides were as dry as a bone.
It was a good Vplace for snakes - and
varmints, 5 and I . proceeded ve:y
cautiously on that account. The fire
7 brands I had previously discovered had
been undisturbed. The- fire had -be m
built1 just at the entrance of a circular
" chamber which must have been twenty
five feet across, and the draught would
take all the smoke ont of 'the mouth of
the cave and scatter it among the thiek
pines. I found not only a large, heap of
ashes and charred brands, but a pile of
fagots which - had been laid a side 7and
never burned. , Near by vvtre a mouldy
. old haversack, a heap of mould represent
ing a woolen blanket an army belt, a
7 rusty revolver, a bayonet, a lot ef bones
of birds and animals, and a pair of boots
which had becom.e useless to the o w nrr
before he threw them away, - - ; .
5 1t was plain enough'that outlaws, de
serters, or refugees had made this cav
their hiding place, and I besran ' to lool
for further relics. .1 started to the right,
ana,circiea tn chamber just Half, ano
then came to a narrow passageway: lead
ing into a second chamber. : I went bacl
and circled to theJeftr; but found noth
ing -untH I again reached this passage.
Leavinsr a "torch burnincr in; the outei
chamber, I lighted a second, and passec i
into the Jiext. The rift or passageway .
was about ten feet-long, and there wai
almost enough draught here to extinguish
my torch. :.The temperature of the cav(
stood at about fifty, degrees, while tha j
o the - summer day outside was - fullj '
eighty-five. - : . - ' ' - J. I
-"I found the second chamber to be "as -almost

as tnat oi ine outer, nor was tne rooi ai
high. . The draught came out of a rift oi
blowhole in i the roof, but I -could - nol
locate-; the' exact spot. : I had scarcely
entered the place before fknew that an im
portant xliscovery was on the tapis . Then
.was'a bundle of clothes against the rockj
side, and- two 1 guns which I afterward
found to be shotguns of -ancient rnakt
leaned! against the side. , I approached
the heap of stuff and began tearing it to
pieces with my foot. The articles wert
i etter preserved than in the other room,
jupbably because the room was drier,; and
because they were directly in the draught
6ft pure air. One of the ; first things : 1
kicked aside was a small leather trunk,
provided with handles like 7 valise; and
used as a valise. It was of English make,
and while it must have been many years
old before it saw the cave, and had prob
ably been there for several, years, .th
leather was still . in good condition and
the lock all right, There' were in addi
tion to the satchel two iron kettles, some
tih and crockery dishes, some rough cut
lery, two or three blankets and bedquilts,
a sharp and rusty butcher knife, a suit oi
rough clothes, a coarse pair of shoes, evi
dently worn by a female, and a small
wooden box in; which I found buttons ol
various" slze3 and - needlesPand thread.
That two or three persons bad:-occupied
thot cave in company, and that one ol
them- was. a woman, there could be nc
room for doubt;- - - i r i --
"The trunk rwas the only thing likelj
to contain ary object of value, and 1
carried it put through both-caves to day

it was full of dishes, or cutlery, and be
fore I could break the lock . and get a
sight of the contents I became so. nervous
that I was "all in a tremble. It was a
nunute or two before I dared inspectrthe
contents. Then I took out several tow
els,1 two white shirts; two or three fine
handkerchiefs, and then came : to twe
buckskin bags, which I knew contained
money. ; One; was much the larger," and
this I opened first and found it contained
silver coins, - most of them dollars and
halves of American coinage, though there
were - perhaps fifty Mexican pieces. The
other contained gold pieces, the denom
inations running up to twenties and down
to fives. There was altogether $7,963 50.
When I got over my excitement I went
back and fully examined "everything,
hoping to get some clue to the people
who had occupied the cave, but found
f nothing whatever to give me information.
I could reason that the people had ned
from their homes, taking all their wealth,
but how many there were or what be

could answer. The money was not mine

spent six weeks making inquiries and
learned nothing. I then invested 4he

f An Extraordinary Case.
J; G. Staib, a baker of Wihnington,
Delj, has just recovered from a singular
affection. Three years ago while sitting
in his house reading a paper he was con
siderably annoyed bv flying bugs and in-
sects, which were attracted by the lighted
lamp, and one of them, commonly Known
as the miller, flew into his right ear. The
sensations caused by the fluttering in
sect'as it entered his head were horrible,
and almost set the stiff erer crazy. During
the aright following the occurrence all
disagreeable sensations disappeared, and
Mr. Staib thought that the insect had
been removed. He experienced no jll
effects until about seven weeks ago, when
he occasionally felt darting pains in his
head, and other symptoms usually inci
dent to a heavy cold appeared. His head
began y to swell, ; -one eye was almost
closed, and the ear : through-which the
insect bad passed became deaf.- A physi
cian was called, and as the patient's
symptoms became more alarmiDg serious
results were feared. Milk poultices were
applied, and Mr. Staib . bathed his car
with salt, water.;1. On the second day after
beginning this treatment Mr. Staib again
experienced L the ' fluttering sensation-in
his ear, and was utterly astounded to see
the insect come from his ear, - fly several
feet and then collapse and fall dead. It
had been snugly ensconced just inside the
drum of the ear during all this time.- He

Scabby Potatoes.' - r
No farmer likes to plant scabby pota
toes, because of the danger'that the f un-r
gus will reproduce itself in anew crop,
but some who have tried it report crops
of bright, clean potatoes . from scabby
ed. This has satisfied, them that worms,
insects or some other cause than fungus
produces the scabby appearance." But if
potatoes ' are properly kept during the
winter the fungus growth may "die out
and : become incapable, . of propagation."
The success with- shabby potato seed may
be due to-the fact that; the scab entirely
destroys some, eyes, leaving those -which
remain to use the entire substance of the
potato.' This suggests that it is undoubt
edly a good plan to dig out all but two
or three-; vigorous eyes before planting
the seed. It requires more potatoes to
plant an acre by tnis raetnoa, but tne in
creased crop more than warrants the ex
tra expense, 'utuntauon. .

Considerable attention is now given to
the permanent, seeding of meadows nd
pastures. -- These are indispensable ; to a
complete system of -agriculture, and while
heretofore American farmers have got

need to study the various grasses and their

stoloniferous. varieties are the best for
permanent seeding, - but ' there aje some

The beans are produced in small prickly
pods ; or capsules, which are borne in
pyramidal spikes or clusters. Ripenin
is indicated by the turning brown of the
pods, which soon" burst open and scatter
the seeds. As soon as the pocu at 7 the
base of a cluster begin to turn brownhe
cluster must be harvested. 7 i The stem of
the spike Dr cluster is cut with a sharp
knife, and the cluster thrown into a cart
on which a barn sheet or other cloth is
spread to save the beans that shell out.
Many , growers prefer to use a sled, in
harvesting;-a sled is made with plank
runners, large enough to hold two large
drygoods boxes.- . A single horse draws
this along the lanes, and the clusters are
thrown into the boxes. When the boxes
are filled theyj are taken to the "popping
yard." A- piece of hard ground, say a
hundred 7 feet square, is burned over,
swept and rolled to get a hard surface,
and surrounded, by & board fence. The
clusters are placed in the center" of this.
After two days the spikes must be turned.
using rakes for the purpose. At the end
of four or five days the beans will have
popped out, when the refuse is removed.
The beans are swept up7 to be cleaned by
afanningmill, and another lot of clusters
brought xa. American Agriculturist.
1 7 :"- Duck: Raising
It is an opsh question whether it 7 will
pay to raise ducks on most farms or not;
the careful housewife, whose pin 'money
is derived from this and similar sources,
says yes, wmie the husband or . manager
of the farm, in nine cases out of ten, says
noJ and we are inclined to think : he is
correct but on the other hand there are
many cases where they may be raised
with profit, and a reasonably large pro
fit, r If the farm is located-near a large
city, and Tegular trips are made to the
market: it .will pay to Taise. them until
nine or ten weeks old and put them v on
the" market at that age, but under or
dinary circumstances they must be sold
at that 1 age. .s jhey are so rapacious
feeders that they wilL eat their heads off,
so to speak, it led on meal and gram un
til Christmas;5 but on the other hand, if
the farm has a piece of waste ground in
the form of a marsh or miry place, where
they 7 can f 7 forage f for ;. themselves
after ' ' that i t age, " and - not be 7 a
source 01 destruction : to growing
crops,; they may be kept until autumn
with reasonable profit While ducks are
f oud of water; for the water itself is not
a positive necessity to their well being,"
the chief reason why they like water . is
the vast amount of animal food they get
from' that source ; this is why they prefer
a airty pond or marshy place to a clean
spring creek.! It affords greater; quanti
ties of snails, slugs and worms. .But. to
raise ducks on meal and grain until au
tumn, tney will be a bill of expense in
stead of a source of profit, and where they
are allowed to get into the growing crops
or garden, they, will m a short time, de

- Fertility of Soil.
- Writing on this subject to the Massa
chusetts Ploughman, a .1 correspondent
says: "It is to be remembered that soil
is made of dissolved rock. And this
rock is found to contain all they mineral
elements required by vegetation, the dif
ference in the j natural ; fertility of soils
being the, difference of the rock of which
the soil is formed. ; This - being 7 so, it is
evident that the earth .will continue Tto
furnish the mineral constituents of vege
tation while sou or rock remains. '
The other ingredients of vegetation;
oxygen,5 hydrogen and nitrogen, are fur
nished,' the two first from air and water,
the other, nitrogen, in a way -that- seems
at present to be not. fully understood. It
is generally agreed "that plants do - not
receive theit nitrogen : directly from the
air, . therefore indirectly -cfroni air as a
primary 6ource,7in what way we maymot
fully understand. . -. . ".
- "Air is composed of oxygen: and
nitrogen, the nitrogen yn greatest .pro

readily communicated to other substances,
and is largely .drawn, upon m com

never known to vary, and as large quan

that i nitrogen - must .also "" be com

A. leeder 01 many years experience
claims that to feed hogsjio-cent corn in
the winter season, to bring a profit, the
hogs should sell, for f 3.80 ' per hundred J
pounds. If they do notlbnng this, Jt is
no better than hauling 7 the corn to mar
ket, leaving out the value of the manure.
providing in this estimate there are no
losses. In times' gone by, there wai very
little thought of the lossethat might oc
cur, but now it ia the great factor to be
considered, compelling careful feeding,
and a constant vigilance by means of pre
vcntives to guard against loss. -
A breeder for feeding purposes claims
that he grows healthy hogs by a . close
line of inbreeding, being careful to select
the strongest and bsst animals, free from
disease. We believe this a dangerous
theory to advance, for a man is seldom
found that can follow it safely. ? This
is undoubtedly the ban that spreads its
deadly pall over many farms, bringing
such fatal: results, q With the breeding
out of vitality comes, in disease. With
weaker respiratory organs, which gener
ally suffer first, the flood-gates are thrown
open for all diseases common to swine
One of the . worst troubles, or .rather
symptoms 01 something wrong, among
hogs is constipation. In this matter pre
yentioa is much more desirable than any
attempt at cure. : It will help - them to
have the run of a' grass lot where the
altcrmath has a good growth, if you
have not the grass lot, let them have corn
fodder blades to eat, and they will enjoy
them. : Rather than fail to meet : their
demands have resort to the slop pail,
although not so convenient sometimes
when' you wouid like to roast your shins
before a booming fire. : Fire up the sys
terns of "your pokers, and then sit down
to the shin-roasting process. '
Many upon whom it devolves to butch
cr7hogs have , difficulty in getting the
knack of just how to sAick right to bleed
thoroughly, and not cut into the shoul
der or windpipe.- The plan described as
best is to have the hog hoisted up by the
hind feet, as .ordinary butchering is done
by very primitive . methods. ' The next
best thing to do is to throw, the hog, and
roll it over fair 'and square on its back;
feel for the end of 7 the brisket; plunge
the knife down straight,- and 1 toward
the heart,- and the deed is done. The ob
ject in placing the hog on its back is that
one can see to hold the kmf e perpendicu
larly.7 If the', hog is on its side the ten
dency is increased to make shoulder-stuck
hogs, as with the. kicking and. squealing,
the knife is often' thrust while held at an
angle, This is the easiest method; though
a little hard to explain with a pen, but
nearer a pig-pen. would be quite practical
and easily learned. Our, Country Home.

Talmage on Prohibition. .
"The Rev. Dr. "T. De Witt Talmaze. since
his ' return 1mm a' two-weeks' . tour m the
West, has eiven his: impression of the work-
inss of Droaibition as follows:' 'I give as my
deiiD-grate opinion tnat an nonest man cannot
I say an honest man. I saw not one intoxi-
catea man in those Btaxes.nor met - one on
whose breath was tho odorof r'im. .Np.liquoc
was sold there. : The rum-shops are all closed.
In order to get intoxicating liquor a man
must eo'to a drttar store and take solemn oath
before Grod that he is sick and requires it as a
medicine, and there are bnfe. very few men
wjjo are willing to commie perjury. ir me
druggist trifles with the law and sells to a man
without such assurance, or prove himself an
evader of the law, he Ios3S nis certifleateof.
puarmacy ana is pus oai 01. lao uruj uii-
ness. - A. clergyman told me tnat in ms city
in. Kansas he had , sean but two intoxicated
men in fifteen months, and they- had rum-
jTugs they had brought with them from the
I East. ' As ;.-0ur,v train-of ' ' cara -?-sfarted.
out of Kansas City, Mo., to cross
into Kansas, tha porter of -the dining-car
came through and asked the passengers if we
would lite to order some Deer. w o&t, ao
you mean VI said. .He answered; 'We can't
sell any beer alter we cross into .Kansas!' -i
tell you prohibtion doer, prohibit. And all
the talK you hear to the contrary is cusnonest
talk.' Moreover, prohibition has come there
to stay. The young men of those States are
proud to be called Prohibitionists. In their"
cominott- schools the children are taught the.
evil influences of strong clrink, and all young
men in Kansas or Iowa are either Prohibition
ists or loafers. One reason for the present im
migration of good families to those States is
that there are fewer temptations for young
oeonle. Fathers and mothers have bethought
themselves what a grand thing it would be
to rear their, families away from the ever
lasting stench of rum, with which so many of
our cities are accursed, rne pauperism, tne
crime, the vagrancy of those States are less
and less. Soon their criminal courts wui De
disbanded, and their jails will be "empty.
State by State -prohibition will be adopted,
and then we sb.au have .National prohibition.
Th3 stronger States will help the weaiier. Kan
sas will help New York. The Congressmen and
(senators at w asnmgxon wno are airai 1 01
the rum 'traffic will finally be outvoted by
Congressmen and Senators who are not afraid.
The country districts will be heard from, and
they al ways-stand for soDnety. . I he mighty
dominion of alcoholism will be broken. The
evil will become so great that an indignant
nation will rise and stamp it out of existence.
Do not be despondent because tne wore is te
dious and protracted. It is considered a great
thing if - a rail-train under full headway can
be stopped at a distance twice its length. Re
member that drunkenness with its long train
of disasters has been under full headway for
centuries, and no decided effort has been made
to arrest it until within seventy years. 11 11
stop within a century it will stop in less than
half the length of its rushing and damning
devastations. - I interviewed all the reporters,
and all the 'clergymen, and all the doctors, and
all the merchants, and all the mechanics, and
all the farmers whom I met, and the unani
mous testimony is that in Kansas and Iowa
Srohibition prohibits. The only way to get a
rink of rum in those States to-day is through
perjury.
The Fight 7Against the Saloon.;;
The movement against the saloon gathers
strength as it proceeds. Everywhere through
out tho Union North, East,. West, and South
the people are rising in rebellion : against
the rule or rum. Restrictive legislation in vari
ous forms and constitutional prohibition are
the principal lines along which the warfare
proceeds. i)uring the pi"esent season the Legis
latures of no less than twenty-one States have'
been called upon to consider tne arms: evil
and take action toward its suppression. - In
nearly every one of these States something
has been done to check the growth of the
saloon and curtail its power.. High license
laws, local option," and prohibitory amend
ments are the order of the day. Never be
fore in the history of the temperance causa
has the feeling against the liquor traffic been
so deep,r so wide-spread, so earnest, so
determined as now. That most powerful of
agencies, the public press, has at last arrayed
ltsalf against the traffic; many 01 tne leading
secular journals of tho country have adopted
a tone of bitter hostility to the grog shop, and
are attacking it daity: with all .the force and
ability they have at command. No stronger
or more: effective arguments' against the
saloon can be found anywhere than those put
forward in the editorial columns of some of
the New -York dailies. -The gain. for temper
ance in this direction has been of the most
significant and promising character. Public
men, too, men of affairs, judges, statesmen,
political leaders, -who- have-, hitherto held
themselves aloof from the discussion of tem
perance, "are now taking side3 in the conflict,
and many of the ablest and best of them have
openly declared against "the business of
maniifacturing - olrunkards." The hues are
being more and more sharply drawn every
day between the adherents ofjfche rum-shop
and the friends of peace, order 'and sobriety.
The hour is at nana when every man must
make a decision in this matter. And when it
":omes to this issue everywhere we cannot
h-Tcnbt where the -majority will stand." The
sentiment of the country 1 overwhelming
against a continuance of svTon domination.;
There can be no mistaking this fact.. The
present movement is not dependent upon a
wave of popular excitement; it us not corn
of a passing enthusiasm. It is the butcome

. Inebriety in the Bay State. r
- The latest reports show that about 3,000
arrests for-drunkenness were made in the
State last year, about one-eighth of the per-
. , , j 1 mi . . . . - 1 1
sons arreswxi oeing iemaies. j. nis is a sugnc
decrease upon the preceding year.- About
one-half of those were, committed to the vari
ous penal institutions, and the other half paid
their fines, , or were not Convicted. If the
prison- population at a given time is taken, it
will be found that 1,875 of the 4,681 convicts
in all the penal institutions of the State on
the 1st of last October were held for violation
of the various laws against drunkenness. Of
these 1,875, there were 1,458 males and 417 fe-;
males; l,uioi tne males ana vzaot jtne re
males were held for not paying the fines and
.costs imposed, and 4 males and Vcti temales
on direct .sentences to term3 of . imprison
ment, varying from two months to two
years. " These figures suggest the magnitude
of the question, viewed from the standpoint
of the btate, and- the problem is how to re
duce it. Most of the discussion of this matter
has been given to the liquor-sellers and the!
traffic, and if it has ever occurred to anybody
to ask whether the laws in regard to the
drinkers should not be changed, the question
has been put aside without an answer. We
-have been going oayear after year, sending

Mrs. Beebe, an elderly New London
lady, has been a good deal annoyed ty

and " threats; to no purpose, until 7 the

In - the course of . the game" the boys
knocked the ball out of the bounds into

could "scale the fence and recover the
rubber sphere, Mrs. Beebe had captured
it, and when a demand.wa3 made for its
return she was deaf to all forms of en
treaty. The boys made two or three in
effectual attempts to soften MrsBeebe's
great wtath; for their previous bad con

were in ft quandary. After a while they
