RUSSIAN COMMANDER ACTS ABBMfflLy. : _?-_-_ ! Forbids Other Commanders Communicating With Chinese. BECAUSE SHE HAS DECLARED WAR. Situation at Pekin Likely to Lead to Grave Complica tions-United States * ? * m Not Alarmed. Washington, Ang. 25-The dip lomatic feature of the Chinese sit uation to-day took precedence over both the naval and military fea tures. The officials of this gov ernment were, if anything, more uncommunicative than heretofore as to the relations between the powers and China. It was stated authoritatively that no news of operations had been received and that the diplomatic negotiations could not be made public. The most unsatisfactory devel opment of the day, as far as the Paciffic programme of this govern ment goes, was the receipt of a dispatch from Admiral Remey i conveying the reports which had reached him of a disagreement be ! tween the commanders of the Rus sian forces in Pekin an'd the other internationals. The text of this [ dispatch was not made pu bl ic, but it was said on good authority to contain the statement that the Russian commauder bad forbid den communication with the Chi nese on the ground that Russia was technically as well as practi cally at war with China. It may be said this information was not conveyed by Admiral Remey as official news, but merely as a re port from reliable * urces, which he considered this government should possess for its own informa* tion. Assuming Admiral Remey's report to be correct, this move ou the part of Russia strikes the first note of discord in the heretofore harmonious concert of the powers. The possibilities of future compli cations that it opens up are almost infinite and would be serious to a degree. It may be said, however that the news is not taken very se riously by this, government and certainly will not affect our course in any way until it has been offi cially confirmed. It was explained that ' tho situation growing out or the joint occupation of Pekin by the powers waa delicate, although not neces sarily to be described as se rious. The interest of all the powers there represented were at least comp?titif, if not an tagonist ie and illconeidered on the j part of any one government might j easily entail disagreeable con sequences in which all would be more or leas involved. At the same time it was explained that all of the governments represented in China were anxious to avert I any open clash, if thia could be done without sacrificing what th ey I considered their rights in the ?premises. In this situation the United States occupied the position it has held all through the dis turbance, namely, of being the one power least under suspicion by the others of selfish and ulterior motives. This government is exceedingly anxious to maintain this vantage ground and retain the confidence of the other powers so that it is now more than ever cautious as to to the next step to be taken. The decision to address instructions to the United States representatives at the courts of the various powers was reached yesterday after the most mature deliberation. It would have been a satisfaction to this government if the action j could have been taken without ex [citing public comment of any sort. Owing to the fact this com munication was not addressed directly to the other governments and that it contained merely in structions for the guidance of our diplomatic representatives abroad it was decided not to make public ?either the text or the substance of the instructions lest their pre mature publication- should defeat the very object for which they were designed, namely. of ascertaining the temper of the various governments interested with a view of determining what form of procedure is must likely to meet with general appio>>ation among them, and lead to a speedy solution of the problem. 1KGALLS ?N HEN l??tti Eloquent Tribute of th? Gre Critic to Georgia's Pampas Senator. - . -i The recent death of John Jam Ingall s recalls to mind the el quent and touching eulogy deli ered on the life and character Benjamin Harvey Hill at the tr mariai .exercises held in tho.Uj ted States Senate chamber Jan. : 1883. It was short and epigrai matin.... He said:. "Ben Hill has gone to the u discovered country. "Whether his journey thith was but one step across an impf ceptible frout ier, or whether an i terminable ocean-baok, unflu tuating, and voiceless stretch between these earthly coast0 ai those invisible shores-we do n know. "Whether on that August mor ing after death he saw a more gi rious sun rise with unimaginab splendor .above'a celestial horizo or whet^r fi&apathetic and u: conscio?sjasbj^still sleep in co. obstruction tK^Qsensible obli ion-we flo n^k&ow. "Whether his^troug and subt energies found instaut exercise i another forum, whether his de: i trous and disciplined faculties ai now contending in a higher sepal than ours for supremacy, < whether bis powers were dissipate and dispersed with his parua breath-we do not know. "Whether his passions, amb tiona, and affections still sway, al tract, and impel, whether he yt remembers us as we do bira-w do not know. "These are the unsolved, th insoluble problems of mortal lif and human destiny, whio prompted the troubled patriare to ask that momentous questio: for which the ceuturies have givei no answer, 'If a man die shall b live again?' "Every mau is the centre of i circle whose fatal (ircumferenc he cannot pass. Within its narro* confines he is potential, beyond i he perishes; and if immortal it be a splendid but delusive dream even the longest and most lortu nate, be not supplemented am perfected after its terminatioi here, then he who dreads to di should fear to live, for life is tragedy more desolate and inex plicable than death. . "Of all the dead whose obsequie we have paused to solemnize ii this chamber, I recall no one who s untimely fate seems so lamentan! and yet sprich in prophecy o eternal life, as that of Senato Hill. He had reached the meri dian of his years. He stood upoi the high plateau of middle life, ii that serene atmosphere when temptation no longer assails, when the clamorous passions no mon distract, and where the condition are most favorable for more an c enduring achievement. His up ward path had been through stormy adversity *?ud contentioi suoh as infrequently falls to th< lot of men. Though notwithoui the tendency to meditation, reverie ?and introspection which accom Ipanies genius, his temperament was palestrio. He was competitive ! and unpeaceful. Ho was boru a polemic and controverealist, intel lectually pugnacious and combat ive, BO that he was impelled to de fend any position that might be assailed or to ai tock any position that might be intrenched, not be cauoe the defense or the assault were essential, jut because the positions were maintained and that those who held them became by that fact alone his adversaries. This tendency of his nature made his orbit erratic. He was meteoric I rather than planetary, and flashed with irregular splendor rather than shone with steady and penetrating rays. His advocacy of any cause was fearless to the verge of temer ity. He appeared to be indifferent to applause or censure for their own sake. He accepted intrepidity any conclusions that he reached without inquiring whether they were politic or exped ient. "To such a spirit partisanship was unavoidable, but with Senator Hill it did not degenerate into bigotry. He was capable of broad generosity and extended to his op ponents the same unreserved can dor which he demanded for him self. His oratory was impetuous , and devoid of artifice. He was noe a posturer nor phrasemonger. He was too intense, too earnest to em ploy the cheap and paltry decora tions of discourse. He never re connoitered a hostile position nor approached it by stealthily paral lels. He could not lay siege to au enemy, nor beleaguer him, nor opan trenches, and sap and mine. His method was the charge and the onset. He was the Murat of senatorial debate. Not many men of this generation have been better equipped for parliamentary war fare than he, with his command ing presence, his siuewy diction, his confident aud imperturbable self-coil trol. "But in the maturity of his pow? j ere and fame, with unmeasured op portunities for achievement ap parently before him, him, wilb great designs unaccomplished, surrounded by the proud and affectionate solicitude of a gr?a! constituency, the pallid messenger with the inverted torch beckoned I him to depart. There are few seeues I in history more tragic than that i protracted combat with death. No mau had greater itdu?ements to live. But in the long struggle advances of an insidious and mortal malady he did not falter, nor repine. He retreated with" the aspect of a v?cror and, though be succumbed, he seemed to con quer. His sun went down at noon, but. it sank amid the. prophetic splendors of an eternal dawn. '.With more than a hero's c mr age. with more than a martyr's, fortitude, he waited the approach of the inevitable nour and went to the undiscovered country." Bad Blood-Cure Free ! ?

This is not consider ed a difficult operation, as farmers are not disposed to be as careful as with wheat. The harvesting of coru at the proper time, however, is a very important matter, as the nutritive value of the'corn fodder largely depends ir?>on the stage of growth at which it is cut down. A delay of a day or two may make considerable difference iu its quality, and liveetock will accept it with relish if the fodder is cot and cured at propir time, some portions usually rejected being consumed when presented to the animals in a palatable oonditon. Corn should never be Inft in the field a day longer than is necessary. Not a single blade should become yellow, as the more succulent the fodder at the time of harvesting the greater its feeding valne. Wheu a crop of corn is grown und er favorable conditions the weight of the grain and that of the stalks and leaves will be about the same ; i that is, the stover of the crop, which is not to be considered when fodder corn (which is grown for its fodder only) is mentioned. The term, "corn fodder," is more frequently used than "'stover," however, "ensilage" being grown for the silo and "fodder corn" to be harvested when the ears are beginning the milky stage. It is estimated that when timothy hay is worth $10 per ton corn stover is worth $6,88, and and fodder corn $7,75, these values being based largely upon the proportions of digestible protein contained, although they are also rich in carbohydrotes. On the same basis good red clover hay is worth $22 33. The coin stovor is, therefore, a very valuable crop, but is more largely wasted then any other. GRAIN AND STOVER COMPARED. A orop of of sixty bushels of corn per acre gives 3,360 pounds of grain at time of harvesting. ! When dry the weight may shrink to 3,000 pounds. The stover at time of harvesting may weigh from 3,500 to 4,500 punda, and will also weight after harvest, but when the yield of grain is heavy the weght of the grain and that of the stover may be safely claimed as about the same. The grain contains twice as much nitrogen as the stover, but the latter con tains five times as much potash as the grain, and nearly as much phosphoric acid. Allowing that the grain contains twice as much as the stover, it is plain that the stover from a crop of corn yielding sixty bushels per acre is alone worth as much as a grain crop of thirty bushels, basing the value upon the nitrogen. So far as the fat and carbo hydrates are concerned, they are too cheap to be given value, as they take nothing from the soil, while both the graiu and stover largely abound in caronaceous matter. The larger share of the mineral elements are contained in the stover, the ash being four times as much as for the grain. The nitrog. eu in the stover, if it could be made immediately available for plants, would be worth $4.50 as a fertilizer, but when fed to livestock a large portion eventually roache* the manure heap and is returned to the soil. The potash and phos phoric acid in the stover, if read) for the plants, is valued at about $4 per acre if a sixty-bushel crop [of corn is grown. The farmer who throws corn, therefore, should at tach fully as much'importance-'to the stalks as to the gram. PERIOD OF HARVESTING. When harvesting a corn crop the object should be to preserve the fodder by cutting down the btalki while Ihey are somewhat green As soon as the leaves Legin io Tlie Elections.

When the ears have well filled out, and gotten beyond the stage at which the grains are easily indent- ! ed with the finger, they will gain but Tittle more in nutrition, and the stalks should then be cut, for when the ears are not hard the Btalks are more succulent. If is no loss to save the stover before the ears are hard and dry. If the harvesting is delayed until the leaves begin to turn it is then too late to eave the fodder in its best condition. Like hay, it is only prime when made from green material, and quickly cured, but the stalks and grain should be harvested as near to the maturity of both as possible without going beyond that stage. The corn harvester, corn shredder and im proved feed cutter are labor-saving machines that make the stover really more valuable than the grain. When harvesting is Over the stalks should be taken to the barn or put under shelter. It is not creditable to American farmers that they allow the shocks of corn fodder to remain io the fields exposed to storms, aud which the cattle will not consume. When property harvested, cared, for, and prepared for stock, the animals will readily accept corn stover, wastiug but little, but that left in the fields is not relished and and become a waste and loss.-Philadelphia Record. JErolite Fell So Close to Travelers That They I* elt UN Heat. Mr. and Mrs. D. E. Monroe, of Monticello, Sullivan county. N. Y.r who are making a tour in a carri age, were sufficiently close to an aerolite that last night dropped into the ground to feel its heat. They left Money about noon, and were on their way to this city, where they intended to spend the night. They lost their way, and about midnight found themselves on a lonely stretch of road remote from any dwelling. The spot, about 10 miles from this place, is low and swampy and surrounded by wooded hills'. Suddenly the sky was illuminated with a strange light, whic the next instant lit up the entire landscape, giving it a brilliancy that was blinding. At the same instant a loud hiss or swishing sound struck the ears of the man and woman, and simulaneously, it seemed, a blazing mass, not more than 10 yards ahead, struck the earth. The roadway trembled under the mighty impact. The occupants of the buggy were nearly overcome by the appalling spectacle,while the horse stood tremblipg in its tracks. Mr. Monroe alighted from the buggy and led horse to the spot where the aerolite had struck. The only trace of -the celestial visitor was a volume of steam, which rose from the spot, indicat ing the presence of water. Mri. Monroe was made quite ill by the shock, and the oouple were obliged to stop at a farmhouse for the night. She Jumped Into The Sea. New York, Aug. 26.-The French line steamer L'Aquitaine which arrived this morning from Havre, had a death among the cabin passengers. Margaret Mineban, a former nun, committed suicide ty jumping overboard at 5 a. m., on Aug. 22. The alarm was quickly given, a boat was lowered and the woman was picked up but. too late restore her to con sciousness. A Roman Catholic priest among the passengers per formed a burial service over the re mains, assisted by a number of other priests and nuns who were on board the steamer and the body was committed to the sea. A pas senger on board said that the de ceased was a nun in a Catholic institution in Frace. During the voyage Miss Minehan communicated to some of her fel low passengers that she had been a nun but her love for a young man caused her to leave the con vent and she felt she felt she had disgraced her family. She said she was on the way to her brother, a priest located in Penn sylvania. Oppose Tompkins. Washington, Aug. 14.-Some opposition has been aroused among the Damocrats against the appoint ment of Daniel A. Tompkins, of Charlotte, N. C. as a member of the industrial commission. The commission is bi-partisan and the claim is nade that Tompkins is not a Democrat. In 1896 Mr. Tompkins was a gold Democrat. His confirmation will likely be fought in the senate. The above telegram shows the current of opposition of business men to politics being introduced into business. The appointment did not surprise us and its failure of confirmation will not come in the form of a shook.-Ex. JX MEMORIAM.
