An authority gives the consumption of
corn as follows: "180,000,000 bushels
are used for human food, 634,000,000 for
working animals, 20,000,000 for seed,
100,000,000 for the production of spirits
and glucose, 65,000,000 for export, and i

The coyote is the enemy of the jack
rabbit, and used to keep his numbers
down. But some years ago a bounty was
put on the coyote in California, and he
has since decreased and the jack rabbit
increased, until now the latter does great
damage to vineyards and orchards. It
is, therefore, proposed to take the bounty
off of the coyote and put it on the jack
rabbit.
The development of the bituminous
coal lands in Virginia during the last
four years has been so rapid as to excite

the country. Up to the beginning of the
time mentioned the coal production of
Virginia was comparatively inconsiderable,
but in two years rough estimates
place the production all the way from
three million to five million dollars.

An accident that was reported recently
from Junction City, in the vicinity of
Fort Keogh, Montana, in which a
white woman shot at a dog running along
the river bank, just as an Indian lifted
his head above the bank, and killed the Indian,
ought to teach the red men a needed
lesson. That lesson is never to allow even
eo little of themselves as their heads to
remain out of shelter, when a white woman
is shooting at something else.
Vivisection is not an issue in this counE?
try as in England. Our people take it
for granted that scientific men would not
torture an animal unnecessarily and unjustifiably.
But in England there is a
society composed of influential persons
whose work is to prevent the torturing of
animals by scientific investigators. Leading
journals are antagonizing the establishment
of an addition to the College oi
Surgeons lest it be used for experiments
in vivisection.
The head of one of the great New York
dry goods firms was asked the other day
if he could give any idea of the yearly
aggregates of the bills of his heaviest
customers. Twenty-five thousand dollars,
he said, one woman had spent with
him within a twelvemonth, and several
others had grown poorer to the extent of
$20,000 or $15,000. Thirty thousand
dollars is not unheard of as the price of
the dress and toilet equipments of an extravagant
city's extravagant dames.
Now and then is published a story of a
mouse, a dog, a horse, or some other animal
with "a remarkable ear for music."
The latest comes from Yreka, Cal. A
young man riding a gentle, though
spirited Horse, becoming musically inclined,
tied the reins around his wrist
and began playing on a mouth organ. It
r. v is not stated how well or how ill was the
playing, or what was the tune. Anyhow,
the horse had an ear for music. He became
excited, began to dancc and to
"buck," threw the young man to the
ground and dragged him to death. Thia
may or may not prove a sufficient warning
to prevent the reckless playing oi
mouth organs iu the presence of horses.
The new censuses of France and Germany
show a marked falling off in the
rate of increase. In the case of France
the rate of increase was low enough before
; now it threatens to stop altogether,
and in many departments there has been
a considerable decrease. The addition to
the population in five years has only been
213,857, bringing the total up to 37,885,-905.
This is equal to the annual rate ol
only 1 per cent, per annum. Germany ij
not quit'c so bad, but the rate of increase
between 1870 and 1880 was abnormally
high. The population by the latest returns
is 46,844,926, as compared with
45,234,061 five years before, giving an
annual rate of increase of .71 per cent,
per annum in 1880-85 as compared with
1.14 per cent, per annum'in the previous
five years.
Some interesting figures are given by

this conviction the confident hope that God

MATTERS OF MOMENT~
Some Important Events From
Various Quarters.
Twenty Lives Lost on a Burning
Steamer in Alabama,
The steamer W. H. Gardner, one of the
largest boats plying on tho Tombigbee River
from Mobile, was burned the other afternoon
three miles below Gainesville, Sumter county,
Ala. Captain F. S. Stone telegraphed
that the boat was a total loss, together with
bales of cotton. The loss of life was very
large, as follows:
S. C. Blackman, Jule Rembert and two
children, Mrs. W. F. Rembert and three chil-.
dren, Theodore L. Graham, G. Rutes and the
following colored persons: John Bryant,
steward; Green Jenkins, Henry Ford, Hayward
Hudson, L. Lindsey, Virgil Jones,
Amos Harris, and three unknown.
Mrs. Rembert was the wife of the clerk and
part owner of tho boat, and lived in Mobile.
The remaining whites were passengers
living in the Upper Tombigbee di?
trict. The liardner was Duxlt five years
ago for the Tombigbee trade. She was owned
by P. S. Stone, Sid C. Coleman, and W. P.
Rembert, and was valued at $25,000. She was
fully insured. The cotton was insured in local
companies for $25,000.
Mrs. Rembert and three children lived in
Demopolis, Ala., which is W. E. RembertfB
home and also the home of Jule Rembert.
Before making the last trip Mr. Rembert
wrote his wife to join him with his
three children at Demopolis and make
the trip up to the highest landing and
return. It is supposed that he invited also
his cousin, Jule Rembert, and his two children.
and it was intended to be a pleasure trip
for the party. The negroes who lost their lives
were deck bands from Mobile, and most of
them leave families.
Three Children Burned to Death.
The Wood p!ace, about oue mile south of
Marianna, Ark., was the scene of an unfortdate
catastrophe on Sunday night.
About 9 o'clock the cabin occupied
by a colored man named Ed Burton !
and his family, consisting of his wife aud
three children?boys?aged three, nine and
fourteen years?caught fire. The family,
with the exception of the wife, who was at- '
tending a church near town, had retired.
Burton was awakened by a portion of the
blazing roof falling on the bed in which he was
sleeping, setting that on fire. He immediately
jumpea up and seized his three children, who
were sleeping in the same room, and started
for the door. Before he could reach it another
*v\nfiAn r\f tlia rnnf foil in Vn/V^Hnff hlQ f'in'I
Sren from his grasp. He was unable to find
thera again, and had to abandon them to save
himselfjwhich he did by jumping out of a win-'
dow. The boys partially buried by the roof
were burned to death. The fire is supposed
to have originated from the chimney, which
was one of the old fashioned wood and mud
kind and much out of repair.
Baying an Immense Tract of Land.
The Inter-State Land Company, an organization
with headquarters in Kansas City,Mo.,
has completed the purchased of the Arkansas
land grant, comprising 79,(XX),000 acres, situated
in Texas, New Mexico aud Colorado,and
including a portion of No Man's Land and all
of the famous Maxwell grant. The purchase
is made from the Exterior Real Estate, the
title having come originally from the Mexican
Government in 182(3. The price of purchase
is not made public. The company proposes
to give quit claims to settlers now on
the land on application, but will require foreigners
and corporations to settle. The legal
opinions of eminent authority have been obtained
upon the title. This is the largest private
land purchase ever made in the United
States. Tne tract purchased is nearly half
as big as the entire State of Texas.
The Fatal Earthquakes.
The fishermen in the harbor of Genoa on
the night proceeding the earthquake noticed
that the sea had retreated a yard more than
usual. Instinctively feeling that something
was about to happen they remained the whole
night in their boats.
Of the 300 bodies buried at Diano-Marfno
only fifteen were identified. Five thousand
persons there are still camping out. The air
is becoming horribly offensive owing to the
stench arising from the corpses that are yet in
the ruins.
The structures in which the injured at Bajardo
wero sheltered were blown down by the
wind, and before the helpless patients could be
removed to a place of safety they were all
covered with snow and half dead from cold.
Nearly Six Hundred Lives Lost.
The steamer Gaelic,from China and Japan,
which has arrived at San Francisco, reports
that a Chinese junk, bound from Hainau for
Siam, has been wrecked, and that out of the
six hundred persons comprising her passengers
and crew, only six are known to have
escaped.

A WOMAN HANGED.
Mrs. Druse Pays the Penalty of Her
Husband's Murder.
Mrs. Roxalana Druse, who murdered her husband
on December 18,1884, and deliber
awiiy cut up ttuu uui uwi rns way, was executed
by hanging exactly at noon on Mon- f
day, February 28, in the jail yard at Herkimer,
N. Y. A dispatch from that place
gives the following vivid account of the exe"
cution:
The morning of the day fixed for the execution
of Mrs. Roxalana Druse for the murder
of her husband dawned bright, clear and
very cold. The condemned woman slept little
during the night. She did not retire until
midnight, and then she refused to undress, saying
it was hardly worth while, as she expected
to get little sleep. When she did sleep
her mutterings indicated acute mental torture.
At short intervals during the balance of the
night Mrs. Druse wouldjump up and nervously
resume her writing. She wrote letters to her
friends and appeared to find relief in the occupation.
Some flowers accompanying a letter
from her daughter, Mary, who is confined
in the Onondaga Penitentiary at Syracuse for
life, which were brought to.ner last night by
Superintendent Irving C. 'Terry, seemed to
affect her deeply. She wrote a touching note
to her daughter in reply. At times she wept
quietly, particulary when writing to Mary
Druse.
Her bearing, however, as a whole was resolute,
and her resignation to the inevitable appeared
to increase as the night wore on. Her
fear of approaching death was nevertheless
made apparent by occasional exclamations of
despair. At times during the night the watchers,
Mr. and Mrs. Waterman, thought that
the unfortunate woman hod found relief in
sleep, but they were generally mistaken. And
thus the night wore on ana the woman at
the break of day was still making a vain effort
to obtain a little rest At last, finding
it impossible to sleep, she arose, bathed
her face and began making preparations for
the ordeal through which she was soon to
pass.
After dressing herself in a most careful
manner, putting on a black cashmere dress,
the murderess sat down to breakfast, but could
not partake of. any of the food. She was
joined by Rev. Dr. Powell, her spiritual adviser,
who prayed fervently with ner and in
every way tried to comfort the unfortunate
woman. He appeared to have great inflnence
over her, and at times she seemed much com
posed. Several hymns were sung in which
she joined with apparent fervor, and her
voice could be heard strong and. clear, although
rather unmusical.
The morning was spent in praying, writing
and singing, with now and then hysterical
periods on the part of the condemned.
At 11:15 a. m. the Jurore, Deputies and other
persons appointed to witness the execution
were led upstairs to the cell of the condemned
woman by Deputy Sheriff Bartley Mannion.
Rev. Mr. Powell, H. D. Luce, Mrs. Druse's
counsel, and Superintendent Terry of the
Onondaga Penitentiary were also d resent
The death warrant was read to Mrs. Druse
In her cell by Sheriff Cook.
Dr. Suter, who worked up the medical legal
evidence for Mrs. Druse, then entered the cell
and took her pulse, which beat at 80, having
come down from 100 in 40 minutes.
Mrs. Druse then broke down almost completely
and it was feared that she would have
to be carried to the gallows.
She, however, after having received a few
words of encouragement from Dr. Powell, recovered
her composure, and the procession to
the scaffold was formed, Sheriff Cook leading,
followed by Under Sheriff Rice, behind whom
came the prisoner, leaning heavily upon the
arm of Rev. Dr. Powell. Her face was greatly
flushed, but no tears were shed, although an
expression of utter hopelessness and resignation,
even despair, was plainly visible. Upon
reaching the fatal spot Mrs. Druse stepped to
uuo uuuiuc ui. uxo iinxu u piavivim. i/uuv u|/vu
the ground, and knelt while Dr. Powell
offered up prayer, lasting about three minutes.
Happening to cast her eyes upward she
caught sight of the dangling noose, which she
had not noticed before, and a convulsive
tremor shook her slight frame. She also
sobbed gently at intervals. At the conclusion
of the prayer, both prisoner and clergyman
arose, when Dr. Powell grasping her hand
bade her good-bye and stepped outside of the
inclosure, so as not to witness the hanging.
Previous to this, however, Mrs. Druse
leaned over and whispered to Dr. Powell a
request that he thank her friends who had labored
so long and faithfully in her behalf.
Mrs. Druse still held in her band the bouquet
of flowers which her daughter, Mary, had
sent her. These sho gave to the doctor.
The executioner then stepped forward and
pinioned her arms and legs together.
The noose was adjusted and the black cap
drawn down over her face. At this point
the prisoner again showed signs of collapse,
i and Degan to scream and shriek at the top of
her voice in a hysterical manner, but the
drop on the 213-pound weight choked off her
cries in her throat, and the body of the murderess,
whose awful crime has shocked the
entire country, was sent flying upward
about lour feet, shooting forward
to the right and settling back to
within one foot and a half of the
platform. Drs. Suter and Kay stepped
forward and examined the pulse beats, which
were almost imperceptible. After the lapse
of one minute a spasmodic clinching of the
fingers occurred, followed by efforts to draw
up the legs. The pulse also began to beat very
rapidly about 102, although very feeble. This
J -4. il 1 Af\
increases at tiircv uiiuuvca \aj x*sv, uiuuuu^u
still quite weak. The pulsations were then
less rapid, decreasing two minutes later to
120.
The heart-beats at this time were 48 per
minute. The pulse continued to get slower
until 15 minutes after the drop fell when life
was pronounced extinct by Dr. Suter.
The drop fell at 11:48, fife was pronounced
extinct at 12:03 and the body was lowered on
the undertaker's stretcher eleven minutes
later.
A neat imitation rosewood coffin was
brought in. When the black cap was drawn
back it was found that death had resulted
from asphyxia. The neck and lower portions
of the face were much discolored and the
rope marks were plainly visible. The noose
had cut a bunch of flowers and some lace
which she had worn at her neck and here
forced them into the flesh. The body was at
once put into the cofBn and immediately
turned over to Dr. Powell, who promised to
give Mrs. Druse a Christian burial.
EXONERATING HER DAUGHTER.
Before her death Mrs. Druse, in compliance
with the request from her daughter that she
should not leave a blot on her name, made
the following affidavit:
"I, Roxalana Druse, in my last moments,
do hereby solemnly swear and affirm that my
daughter, Mary Druse, who is now confined
in the Onondaga Penitentiary, had nothing
whatever to do with the killing
of her father, William Druse,
or with the disposition of his body.
ITiis statement I have repeatedly made, and
always adhered to at the inquest and since my
confinement. My daughter, Mary Druse, is
absolutely innocent and was in no way connected
with her father's (William Druse's)
death."
Mary Druse also made a confession, telling
the story of the crime and asserting that
Charles Gates and his two sons, Frank
and Chet, were present at the murder and
fired a revolver at her father, and helped dispose
of his remains.
