Tho nogro fled and hundreds of his rnco rallied to his protection and dolled tho constituted au thorities. Tho Governor called out tho military, ono thousand Btrong, and for a day or two a bloody battlo seemed Im minent. Tho- nogroos, to tho numbor of about ono thousand, collected in a ] swamp, and refused to allow Dologal to bo ro-takon. But when tho military sur rounded tho swamp and bognn to oloso in upon thom they bocamo ovor-awed and sullonly yioldcd tip Dolognl to Gen. Law ton, tho conminador of tho troops. So further blood-shed and what at ono | timo promised to bo tho beginning of nu entonslvo war, whoro happily avortod. Thinks it a Scheme. Governor Rogers, of Stato of j Washington, does not liko tho pro posed anti-trust convontion. Under dato of August 18, ho writes Gov ernor MoSwconey as follows : "My Dear Sir-I regard tho prosont at tempt, by tho calling of tho gover nor's conference, to concentrate pub lic thought>upon Stato legislation as a remedy for tho trust evil, as a vory adriot attempt upon tho part of tho Republican managers to temporarily evade a great issue. In this scheme, it appears to me, Govornor Sayors, of Texas, is being used ns a catspaw to romove Republican chestnuts from tho fire. Clearly and plainly, trusts, or great corporations, will continue as long as tho cause which prod nco them remains in full forco and effect. Thero aro : First, pr? valo controll of public monoy or I what is known as 'tho money ques tion.' Secondly, railroad robatcs and special privileges granted, or the railroad question. Thirdly, tho pro tective tariff, or tho tariff question. Fourthly, in Homo instances, our lia ient laws. No trust can exist unless based upon one of these, and each and all are absolutely and solely de pendent upon national legislation? Now, to conclude that these pinidary 'and fundamental causes ?ian bo reached by State legislation'is a re duction to an absurdity which I cer tainly hopo our peoplo will not bo guilty ol*. It is solf-ovidently a vory shrewd attempt to tako tho questions I have enumerated out of tho next national campaign. Will our poo bo caught in this trap?" Apple Crop Reports.

It is at ?toge, a little station about twenty teilen from San Franoidoo, that a frog ranch is located, named after tho first owner of tho l&iif roundabout. The Stego ranoh ox tends from tho bay shore up to the ridge of th'o Cost Rango of moun tains, whioh encloses both shoros of San Francisco boy. In tho lower portion ol tho ranoh a great number of springs gush out of the soil in co pious volumes. It was tho spring that determined tho first location of tho ranoh. Tho sito, overlooking an expansive view of tho beautiful bay, was capablo of vast improvement. A dozen aeren, inclosing thc springs, woro surrounded with a hodge of oy press. Tho grounds woro laid out with tasto, and soon presontod tho raro beauty incident to tho profuso vogotation of a semi-tropioal climate, Three ponds woro formed by confin ing tho waters of tho flowing springs, 901110 noros in extent, and stookod with frogs. A fence, high onough to provonl'tho esoapoof tho inmates, surrounded onoh, and the ponds woro ulled with nquatio plants and mosses. Thon hundrods of frogs were plaoed in tho ponds, and from tho original stook tho inoroaso has boon so groat that, though thousands aro sent to market yoarly, tho withdrawals have no sonsiblo oifect upon tho vast num bers remaining. Frog ranching is not unliko cattlo raising. There aro ono, two, throo or four-yoar-olds, though tho successful frog raiser will alway? keep tho young cues separoto and apant from tho full grown, whioh aro cannibals of tho first rank, and eat nil which aro not able to protect themsolvos.

They aro of mon strous growth, hoing fourtoen inches in length and weighing ns much as four pounds. In California, as in colder olimntos, frogs hibernate in wintor, and in the spring emerge aftor their loug sleep omnoiatod to tho last dogreo. Then they aro fed with a mixturo pf oatmoal and blood, and again at tho spawning soason, but only for a short time. They aro most of tho timo, self-sustaining, feeding upon thc in sects which they cloverly catoh. Liko most creatures of tho ani mal world, frogs aro capable of af fection for thoir keeper, and dom-, onstrnto it by coming to call and allowing themselves to be handled, showing much delight in / 'being stroked.

Tho roll is mado up of 758,461 surviving soldiers, 287,415 widows and de pendent relatives, and 658 nurses. Tho total disbursements to pen sioners since 1866 were $2,889,910, 974.

Dur ing tho yoar 107,919 olnims of all olasses wore rojootcd, a largo per centage of theso hoing claims for iu croaso. Tho roport will stato that' tho dolay in tho adjudication of claims is in nearly every case tho fault of tho claimants or thoir at tornoys. In ordor that tho present complex systom of pensioning may bo simpli fied, and to socuro a moro uniform practico in tho future, tho appoint ment of a commission on tho revis ion of tho laws, rules and regulations is recommended.
