and potash are the three elements witi
which farm crops must be supplied, whil<
lime should, in some cases, be added. Hi
granted that while any one of these ele
ments, alone, often produced good results
that it is only by combining them in du

obtained.
He explained that fertilizers pro luee th

plentifully supplied with decaying vega

WASHINGToN, Feb. 4.-A bunch of
a France roses lay on the desk of Mr.
Vellington (Rep., Md.), who appeared
a the house for the first time since his
is t
lection to the senate. Pre
Mr. Hull (Rep., Ia.) chairman of the -
ommittee on militar- affairs, reported H
he army appropriation bill and it was -
laced on the calendar.
At 12:30 o'clock the clerk of the senate
nnounced the passage of the senate
ree coinage substitute for the house
ond bill, and it was referred, under
he rules. to the ways and means com
aittee. A motion to concur was not
ntertainable under the rules.
It will be reported back Wednesday
rith the recommendation that the 3
ouse nonconcur and insist upon its bill.
fr. Dingley, chairman of the ways and
2eans committee says that "reasonable
ime" for debate will be allowed. The
ilver men are asking for two days in
rhich to discuss the bill. The fate of
he substitute is so well assured that the
ouse program excites almost no inter- itil
st except fur the fact that it will fur
ish the first direct test of the free sil
er strength in the house. all
Various estimates made by the free t;0
aver men place the silver vote at from
00 to 125, the la':ter figure being the
tmit prophesied by the. most sanguine of
aver Democrats. Mr. Hartman of Mon
ana predicts that the Republican vote wi
or the silver substitute will be 35 or 40,
nd Mr. Hailey of Texas says that
bout 70 of the 105 Democrats in this ful
*ouse can be counted upon to support
ny silver proposition. The estimates
re based on a full attendance, which all
2ay not materialize, for there are many - c
bsentees this week. C
There are soyeral southern Republi- pu
aus, new members, who are an uncer
ain factor upon the financial question. l
ilver men are preparing speeches upon y0
e financial question, and are anxious

Edward, 17 years old, were drowned
while crossing the ice at Chester, Pa.

to be a victim of a flagrant violation of
the rights of American citizenship by

Mr. Gladstone has written another
Letter on the Armenian question in t
which, after referring to the "murder-i
ous wickedness of the sultan, his abso
Lute victory over thA powers and their ~
anparalleled disgrace and defeat," he
says: "I cannot wholly abandon the 2
hope that out of this darkness light will ~
arise, but the matter rests with the Al- ~
mighty, to whom surely all should ad- '
dress fervent prayers in behalf of his t
mffering creatures."

To Erect a Large Cotton Mil.
MONTOERY, Ala., Feb. 4.-Repre- n
sentatives of a cotton mill at Lawrence, '
Bass., are expected in the district next
week for the purpose of closing a deal C
or a site for a cotton mill in Walker v
ounty, along the Kansas City, Mem- t
phis and Birmingham railroad. There
were several cotton mill men from Law- 1:
rence in Georgia and Alabama a few i
weeks ago looking over the locations e
suitable for their business, and it is il
said that a deal is about to be consum- ri
mated for the purchase of a lot of land a
in Walker county. The mill, so it is fi
stated, is to be one of the largest in the v
state. ______
A Change In Liquor Prices. J
COLUxBI, S. C., Feb. 4.-A new
price list for the subdispensaries has
gone into effect, and in consequence
the cheaper grades of liquors in small
places, which constitute the great bulk
of the sales of the dispensaries, are
henceorth to be sold for higher prices,
while the high priced goods are to bes
reduced. This is believed to be in
tended to win over the opponents of the 1
aw who buy higher priced goods out of
the state. Those who buy the cheaper
rae, as a rule, cannot afford to order
frm other states.
