You can never tell how they ore going to turn out till thoy got too big for you to control. Jtowj there's that yoke— gentle, pt aocnble cattle as you ever saw. \ When I first put a yoke on them I said to myself: •Well, if I can make any- f tiling out ot these steers I'll give up farming and make n business of break ing rattle. ’ Row did I do it? Well, I'll ^ ,bo hanged if I know. A little physical niosiou and a good deal of coaxing, brush the dirt off that stum^ and sit down and I’ll tell you something abon' oxen. “The first thing is your breed. Now, if yon would keep a Durham down you’d get a good ox, but Darhams grow too stocky. Fifteen or sixteen hundred poiiinlH is about as heavy as an ox ought to run, but a Durham will go up into 2,U00 pounds without an effort. Hol beins are open to the same objection. Alderuoys, Ayrshire* and Jerseys are too light, even if they wore not too valuable. Onmnoti natives make the best oxen. Tlnfnriimal is railed a steer till it gets to bo two or three years old. Then it’s an < >v. Tho breaking in of a spring steer begins the following falL I tell you, a calf six or eight mouths old is a frisky thing itt ft rule, and don’t you forgot it. Hut they soon come to time. The first tiling to do is to learn the animal to mimltbegad. Get him quieted down, and then strike him lightly on the flank, • uid he'll go abesd. Htriko him on the in’ise, and he’ll at first turn to one side ; ‘fml if you work at him a little while he’ll learn that a tap on the nose means , to back up. When you’ve taught him to I'nek, you must teach him to ‘haw’ or • gee’—that is, turn to the Uft or right. This training usually includes two ani mals which you propose to yoke to petber, and they are as near tho same size and disposition os you can get th<m. -Dispositiou midsize have to be taken into conaideratiou in deciding which.nminal you will place on the off or right side and which ou the nigh. The driver walks ou the nigh or left side, and if there is any difference in the size of tho animals he wonts the one furthest from him to be the highest, so he can rpnoh him with the gad over tho back n the nigh animal. Then he wants ihe friskiest one nsst to him, 90 he ca-’ look after him. “In trying to find out the aisposition i the cattle the yoke come* into play. Tho yoke, you see, is i* three pieoes. The bar Which runs poross the neck is the yoke proper, T sup|>oee, but the whole thing is called tho yoke. The bows nm arou*d under the throats of the cattle, a"d are made fast by a pin in tho lias The bows are made of oak or htatfory and the bur of basswood. A goof yoke tost* aliout $5. Farmers used to whittle them out in slack times during the winter, but machinery dw the work nsw. “When you first put a yoke on a pair of steers it scares them, but they soon got used to it; then you train them around the barnyard or up and down the road; touch the off animal on the off side and he’ll come arouud toward you—that is, swing around to the left or haw ; the uigh animal may feel the off one coming around and come with him, or you may have to tap him on the nose. Ho bucks, jiud that brings him around. To 1 goe ’ a yoke, or swing them ofl to the right, you go through the same mameuvre, starting off, of course, with Hie nigh animal. Simple enough it seems, doesn’t it ? Rut it takes weeks and months to break a yoke of oxen. “You can begin breaking steers when they are six or eight months old, but thoy are not fit to use much till they are two or thrrec yean old. While you’re breaking them yea oan use them for light work around the yard or for bring ing up a snag of wood, but heavy work is liable to injure them.’’ “In what way are oxen superior to horses?” — THE OLD REBEL TELL It Klein Oat la Iteert at • Taxes MarSsr Trial was mnrtlra lh* JaSce. SERGEANT MOLLY PITCHER. A singular dnirnatio incident occurred in the Superior Court room at Waynes boro, Texas, during the trial of the Rogers brothers for the killing of the Symses, father and son. When, tho court assembled after tee, the seats and tho ipsles within the bar were crowded with ladies, while without a dense throng of meu filled up^the au ditorium. Mr. Twiggs began his argument. He is an eloquent speaker. In the course of bis address he at one time referred in the most feeling manner to the courage snd devotion of women. The hour, the audience, and the dim light from which the rapt ti^n were bent upon him, all combined to form a surrounding well calculated to inspire the orator to his greatest effort. He closed his address upon the wogien os follows: - - . - ‘"ArtTidT*a(Tlo or'Goilysburg General Pickett was ordered to begin the charge which was to make him famous,. As he went into the terrible Isittle his young bride, on horseback, followed him. When tho hail of death was beating down men on all sides and the plunging shot and shell mingled their fierce screams with the moans and cries of the mangled, Pickett suddenly found him self iu the presence of his wife. In an agony of fear forYier safety, he cried out to her, as she sat Cool and collected-as a veteran: 1 “ ‘Go back 1 Go back 1 For God’s sake go back to the rear !’ ” “ ‘No,’ replied tho devoted woman, ‘in tho hoar of danger a wife's place is by her husband’s side.’” At this moment through tho court room there rang out one wild, thriving cry, which nearly lilted the txcited throng to its feet.

At the battle of Monmouth, on June 28, 1778, she brought water to her husband and his companions from a spring near by. A shot killed her husband, and the offi cer in charge having no one competent to fill his place, ordered the piece to Ixi withdrawn. Molly heard the order as she was coming from the spring, droppel her bucket, seized the hammer and worked the cannon until the close of the fight.

Y., says an exchange. Professor Gordon, princi|>al of the public school, punished a boy because ho would not sing, and tho father of the boy had the professor arrestad. It is now to lie proved whether a Ixiy may be allow ed to decline singing, or who them is cruelty to punish him for it. Tho teacher, who first, complained of the boy for not being willing to sing, has evidently little knowledge of psycho logical peculiarities; but there is such a thing as “aversion to singing,” an aver sion that can be overcome only after a time. 1 have known boys whose nerves could not stand hearing their own voice in singing, and who could not be made to sing. It is seldom the case with girls, and yet I have known such instances, but with boys it is a frequent occur- renoe.

She was a stout, red-haired, freckled-faced young Irish woman, with a handsome, piercing eye. The French officers, charmed by the story of her bravery, made her many presents. Si e would sometimes pass along the French linos with her cocked hat and get i t almost filled with crowns.” Molly was twenty- two years old at the time of the battle.

It is a peculiar nervous de bility, often noticed in strong boys. I ones knew a case where a boy could not be made to pronounce French words, and he took beating after beating before ha would give in. Finally the matter waa given up. A friend advised that French should be spoken in the pres enoa 0# the boy, without paying atten tion to him. This was dons, and <ww day he came quite brightly to his mo ther, saying: “I oan do it now," and oaid off half a dozen words correctly. The sense of hearing had to be culti vated first and the nervous system ac customed to the unusual sounds. It k the name with singing. A shy child stood for hoars aside from its sisters and brothers taking their singing lesson; it couldn’t be made to sing. One day it went up straight to the others and joked n the hymn they were then singing. Ik fear and hesitation had been overcome. Had the professor considered deeply thk peculiarity he would have tried to accustom the boy, as he was a new scholar, to the singing, and he might have been sure that the instinct would have been aroused and the lad would have joined the othen, at first sheepish ly and then boldly. The sense of hear ing should in all musical exerekes be cultivated first before it is possible to ex- oect an active response, It k asserted that the Maine First Heavy Artillery lost more in “killed and died of wounds” in the late war of the than any other Union regi ment, the exact figures being 2,202 men enrolled, and 415 killed and died of wounds, or 18.8 per cent The Wiscon sin Second Regiment came next, with lt.6 per cent., and the Pennsylvania One Bandied and Fortieth R«gip.«nt next, with 18.4 per cent, A writer in tho Raltimore Evf n/ Sat urday says: “A few evenings ago I was riding up-town m one of the Madi son avenue oars. Among the passengers waa a young lady, prepossessing in ap pearance, of modest demeanor, and neat but plain in apparel. She was evidently of the class whom necessity compels to earn her bread by the labor of her hands. At one ot the cross streets a young fellow boarded the car. He was gotten up in point of dress to kill. In fact, he was one of those men who, in street parlance, are knowu as ‘mashers.’ Alter standing on the rear platform a minute, his eye canght sight of tkc lady passenger, who was, liesides myself, the only occupant of the car. “After apparently taking her measure ment, he remarked to the conductor; ‘Devil fhh pretty girl, That/ and tipping the change-taker a wink he entered the vehicle and took a seat beside her. The youag lady, nnoonsoious of the fellow’s motion, was wrapt in her own reflection, until a few moments later he addressed her. What the nature of the observa tion waa I did not hear, but the lady arose and took a seat on the other side of the cer. The fellow deliberately fob lowed her and renewed his attentions. ‘ I was ourious to know what would be the denouement, and an appealing glance at the conductor, a fine, strapping, manlv and withal a gentlemanly fetiow, re lieved me of suspense. Entering the oar he said to the lady, ‘Do you know thk man, miss?’ ‘No, sir,’ was the reply. "In a twinkling^ the dressed-to-kill masher was in his'grip, and the next minute he was on the rear platform, "lies in the freezing. The freezing cream, which is still in use among small confectioners, consisted of occasionally stirring the cream while it was freezing In a tin can, set in a tab of ice and salt A more easy and expedi tious method is within tbs reach of the average housekeeper in these days of pat ent freezers. - The same principle under lies all the liest known patents, i. a., the mixing of the cream by a wooden beater which revolves inside the^oan by the pame motion that slightly eSangea the position of the can in the outer tub of ice and salt. This freezing mixture ^liould lie composed of three parts of crushed ice to olio of course salt, of which care should bo taken that it does not reach high enough around the sides of the cun to penetrate to the interior and so apod tho cream; tho water formed in tho outer tub by the melting of the freezing mixture need not be drawn off while the cream is being fro zen unloas it is likely to get into the oan, because tho water is intensely cold. If it is desired to pack tho cream after it is frozen the water may be drawn off and enough more ice and salt placed around the can to roach nearly to the top. Ico cream packed in this way can be kept over night, or longer, if the freezing mixture ia properly renewed. When the cream is ‘moulded’ or packed in the moulds of fancy shapes all tho openings should bo closed with butter, or oiled paper fixed about the apertures of thf mould with paste or gum tragacanth. “Ice creams of the most ordinary sort arc made with milk thickeued with ar rowroot or corn starch, iu the proportion of h tablespoonful to a quart, dissolved iu cold water and then boiled in the milk, which is cooled, sweetened and flavored before it is frozen. Tho sort of icecream usually made ut home is composed of milk, with a small proportion of cream, with eggs and sugar added to it; for in stance, dissolve half a pound of sugar in a quart of milk ; place it over the fire and let it heat to u boiling point; meantime lieat three eggs to cream, pom the boil ing milk into them and then rfiurn to the fire am] stir until it Iregins to thick en, then at once remove it from the fire; stir until it is smooth, thi n flavor it, cool it, and when it is cool freeze it according to directions given. Frozefi enstard is made in the same way, only five eggs at least are added to a qnaijt of milk. “French icecream, thick and yellow, is made by boiling a quart of cream with a king vanilla bean end then cooling and straining it; then the yolks of twelve eggs are beaten smooth with threc-quar- tiTx of a pound of sqgor ; the flavored cream is then mixed with the eggs and stirred over the fire until it liegins to chicken ; directly the cream begins to jhieken, take it from the fire and stir it for five minutes ; then cool it and freeze it.’ The Forrest Divorce rase. I well remember the details of this famous suit, says a prominent New Yorker, which no one but O’Conor could have woo. Ho turned the tables so adroitly that the plaintiff was trans formed into a defendant, and, instead of obtaining a verdict waa beaten in the most shameful man- ner.
