THE COURAGE OF THE CHRISTIAN, A Market Gardencr Comes to Grief— The MoAllister Case Still Be- fore the Public—General and Personal, The Arson Fiend Again Heard From. Another incendiary fire called out the dopartment about half past two yester- day afternoon. The alarm was turned in from the Northwestern depot. The fire was found to be in the building at the corner of First avenue and Eleventh streot, erected by the Schlitz brewery, of Milwaukee, as a warehouse, It had not been used for some time. The fire was started on the north side, near the sill, where there was a small hole cut in the weather boarding for the purpose of ventilation. The fire bug had evidently inserted a little bunch of some kind of combustible material in this opening,us the course of the fire was plainly to be seen, as it ascended between the studding to the roof. When the firemen arrived on the scene the entire roof was in flames. Three streams of water were turned on and the fire was soon under control, al- though it was some time before the flumes were entirely extinguished. The loss is about $200, which amount is cov- ered by insurance, The fiving of this building in the day time was a most au- dacious piece of work. as it is centrally located and in plain view of Broadway. However, the bold firebug was not de- tected. A large crowd was attracted by the fire, as there were a large num- ber of people on the street at vhat hour. .- * Western Lumber and Supply Co., 18th and 14th streets and 2d and 8d avenues, carry the largest stock of lumber, viling pole,ties,lime, ement and building material in 'the west.

Franklin, was at his best. The t under consideration was stian Courage,” and was based upon Joshua : 1 And it came to pass when Joshua was by Jericho’s walls he lifted up his eyes and behold thero stood a man over aguainst him with his sword drawn in his hand, And Joshua went unto him and said: ‘Art thou for us or for our adversaries? The speaker detailed the story of Is- rael’s warfare under the prophet Joshua. The hosts weve encamped around the environed city, and on the eve of the battle the propher went forth as a general to reconoiter, and went alone. While walking along the walls he was startled by the apparition of the armed man. The prophet was unarmed, and the supposition might have been that he was discovered by this armed warrior to be the leader of the be: ing hosts, whose death would cause de- moralization aud defeat. But Joshua, with asublimity of courage, approached the warrior with the positive demand that at once disclosed his identity, while it required a similar declaration on the part of the stranger. Tt required immense courage for the unarmed prophet, conscious of all that depended upon his life, to approach the warrior. The test was suflicient. the prophet’s faith was demonstrated, and the walls of the city fell before the hosts of the Lord. Heaven is peopled with heroes. The word of God aboundsin testimony of the faithful who fought valiently for righteousness and afterwards obtained their reward. Prominent among them stands Joshua, a man of faith and in- domitable courage. He had distin- guished himself some forty years be- fore. He and Caleb alone, of all the host, declared their faith in God. Their wanderings were now ove God had {)rmmsexl to give them possession of the and, The city of Jericho was at hand, and Joshua was proba- bly reflecting upon the extreme diffieulty of rveducing the oity, and contemplating the strength of the place. God had frequently interfered in his behalf, and he had every reason to believe that He would not forsake him now. The circumstances of the place and the attitude of the man would tend to cause him to regard him with fear arfd suspicion. Joshua might have fled to camp. but instead he went boldly up to to him with the confident demand. The answer was a surprise to Joshua: “Iam captpjin of the hosts of the Lord, and for that purpose am 1 now come.” It has been generally couceded, hoth by ancients and moderns, that the person mentioned here wins none other than the Lord Jesus Christ in that form which in the fullness of time he was actually to as- sume. Theappearance was supernat- tural, He received adoration and worship from Joshua and did not re- buke him, The entire history of Joshua shows him to have been a man of the most un- daunted mind and intrenid courage, a genuine hero. An ordinary person seeing this man armed with a drawn ord would have been impelled to ht. Joshua probably thought him to be one of the Canaanitish generals. We may learn from this: That our richest blessings are some- times found where the conditions are most forbidding. That the determined, earnest, heroie, christian will challenge the apparent or real opposition to the cause A right- eousnes ‘I'hat appearances are often deceptive. Many there are who could not with- stand the power of the direct chal- lenge, **Art thou for or against us?” That Joshua was in the line of duty, and that the path of duty is always the path of safety. It is impossible for any soul to be injured while walking iu the way of obedience, There is no neutral ground. Jesus mlld" “*He that is not for me is against me,” That it is the duty of christian men to mscertain just where men stand. Joshua did not run. He found a rich blessing, and you may find it also. This age demaunds personalidentifica- tion with right as never before, A stal- wart espousal of God’s cause never will be won only as men are met by personal entreaty. ~Behold what victories foi- lowed in Joshua's path! Cities fell, armies were put to flight, and battles won where the odds were notonly great but apparently unsurmountable.” Thus it may be with you in every undertak- ing. -— Dempsey & Butler, candy M'0'g., 105 Main. e e Fine dressed chickens.

Sequel to the McAllister-Fallon Affair It is now stated that Mrs, P. J. Fal- lon, nee Miss Maude McAllister, of this city, has left hsr husband and is living in Lincoln, where she is seeking to avoid further mnotoriety. She claims that she left her husband, the well known Patsy, for the reason that she discovered shortly after her marriage that he was a bigamist. She alleges that her former friends here all mis- used her and took sides against her, and she desires to remain away from them and the city where she is so well known. There are no regrets expressed by the expectant bridegroom, who came here from Cincinnati to find that his intended had just become the wife of another. The young man, Mr. Al Brand, of the signal service of Pork- opolis, is far from feeling the keen sor- row and disappointment that was at- tributed to him. He feels that he is very fortunate, and does not hesitate to so express himself. He has no regret 80 far as he 1s concerned, but expresses a great deal of sympathy for the mother of the wayward girl, who is completely prostrated. Young Brand states that he did not come here with the intention of marry- ing the girl, but that the object of his visit was to ascertain the truth of nu- merous reports that had come to his ears from friends here regarding the conauct of the girl. He was not in- clined to believe it, but was convinced that it was all trne when he arrived and found that she had married Fallon. Itis hinted that there may yet be rather sensational developments in the case. Prof. Heir This wonderfuf blind concert at Mueller’s music hall next Tucs- day evening.

About 11 o’clock Saturday night an attempt was made to rob a stranger from California on South Main street as he was passing down that thorough- fare on his way to the Rock Tsland depot. He noticed two men walking ahead of him, and he had just over- taken them when they suddenly whirled around and one of them pre- sented a gun to his head, at the same time ordering him to throw up his hands. The other made a grab for the grip which he had in his hand, but he dodged him and ran across the streot. The would-be thieves did not follow him. The police are of the opinion that thie fellows are the same ones who stole several coats from the hall of J. L. Stewart’s residence the same even- ing. There is as yet no clue to their identity, although the police are look- ing for them. C. B, steam dy et e works, 1013 Broadway. i tephen & Harmer, 82 Pearl.

It Requires a Good Dr and Skill. Written for Tne Bee, The first step to be taken in training a wild colt is to see that the enclosure in which you intend to operate upon the animal isunoceupied by anything which might distract his attention, such as fowls, domestic animals, ete. No one should be present except the trainer. Being prepared, the object is then to get the colt into his training place as carefully as possible, using such gentle means as may be convenient and most likely to be successful without exciting him. Every person at all acquainted with the management of horses knows full well how to do this in his own way without being governed by any fixed rule, The next thing to be done is to halter-break the colt. There are many ways to put the halter on the colt the fivst time. One method is to take a stick ten or twelve feet long, and place a hat or handkerchief on the end of thestick and pass it gently out for the colt to ex- amine, He may be alarmed at first, but if you vemain quiet, moving the object gently, the nature of the colt will be to reach his nose toward it and quite likely touch it. He will soon be- come accustomed to the object and will manifest the Sume curiosity in the halter. You will now take a common rope halter with a run- ning noose, hang the part of the halter which is to rest on the head on the stick, with some little pins in it, to hoid the halter, about eight inches apart. You will now pass it gently toward the colt, He will commence to examine it, and allow you to pass it up over his head, when you will let it drop. Then pull up on the halter. This will cause the colt to start back, but do not let him be frightened by pulling too quickly. Having your colt haltered, your object is now to teach him its use. You will now take such a position as to give him a sharp, short pull, sufficient to move him, then immediately slacken your pull. The object in doing this is to cause the colt to feel your power to move him, and, by slackéning the pull, you do not give him time to resist. whereas, if the pull should be steady he will tug until he throws himself down, This is always to be avoided. This you 1 of Patience may repeat for a few times, until the disposition to ist soems to grow weaker, Then rapeat the oporation from side to side, always avoiding a for- ward pull, and continuing the short pulls until the colt either moves readily or becomes stubborn,” What he learns to do from one side must be learned by the same process on the other side, in order that he may have the same un- dorstanding _ of 'what is required of him. You should attempt to perform no act in which you are not reasonably sure to succeed, If the colt appours to be of a yielding disvosition you will, now gradually shorten your hold upon the halter as you progress, being careful te avoid the possibility of his striking or kicking ou, until you come within reach of his ead, when you will gently put out your hand and allow him to examine it with his nose, that organ being the one made use of by all horses to test the danger or harmlessness of substances which alarm them. As he becomes ac- customed to [yuur presence, which he will readily do if you are gentle, you will then proceed to carefully caress him over the face and forehead. gradu- ally extending your hand down his neck, heing careful not to touch his ears, Then tie a knot through the noose 80 it cannot slip, leaving it quite loose to avoid hurting him. As soon as the colt readily yields to the halter you may chango the rope halter for a strap halter, There are many ways of hand- ling the colt should he be inclined to stubbornness. Youmay take the halter close up to the colt’s head and take a bow top whip and gently pass it over his back and touch him gently on tho opposite hip. 1f he starts with this movement caress him and then repeat the operation. Becareful never to lose your temper and strike the colt with the whip to hurt him, as you will make things worso than ever, When the colt will follow you readily you may tnrow the strap over his neck and let him alone for an hour or two. To get the colt used to the it place on him an ordinary head-stall with a joint bit without any check-rein. Leave him in the stable or yard for a few minutes, then remove it. Fre- quently replace it and aliow it to re- main on a short time. By this mean his mouth becomes used to the bit, which is a great improvement on the old way of putting on the bitting bri- dle at once. After you have done this a few times the colt is ready for the biting bridle. The colt should be thor- oughly bitted, and to do this will take two weeks. Should the colt appear stubborn the Yankes bridle may be used. The last week thecolt may be driven with the quarter rein The operator may commence to harness the colt and drive him. Always avoid hitching the colt single at first. Then step by step, as the colt becomes handy, you may put him to work. never ove loading ov discouraging him. A colt cannot be broken or taught his useful- nessin a day. Weeksand sometimes months are necessary. A colt which is improperly trained”is more likely to acquire bad habits. Horses get bad habits usually from mismanagement. Sometimes, however, these bad habits are inherited from dam or sire. Itis a well-settled fact that certain traits and pecul belong to certain breeds of horses. and if the blood is not crossed will be reproduced from generation to goneration. The Poaltry Yard, Written for the Beo by P. H. Jacobs. All hens that begin to moult now will be overtaken by winter. It requires about three months for a b to renew her feathers,and from this period on the hens have a hard time. The best mode of getting rid of moulting now is to sell overy hen that begins to moult. It is impossible for hens. to pay in win- ter unless they have finished the mouit- ing process in time to begin laying be- fore cold weather.and it is a uscless waste of time and food to attempt to as- sist them to moult by giving special foods, as such hens cannot endure the cola. Now that the winter wiil soon be here the price of eggs may be high because ascareity will exist. Tt is not natural for birds to lay in winter. but our do- mesticated fowls have been made, by judicious selection, and adaptation to couditions and circumstances, to lay in winter, but domestication will not 1n- fluence the fowls except only under ce tain conditions. The first essential in the winter season is warmth. Warm quarters which protect from winds, and nutritious food, will enable our domes- tic hens to lay in the winter, but ar departure from these conditions will re- sult in failur THE BEST CONDITION POWDER. One of the most popular condition powders on the market contains but lit- tle of value to the hens except shells, but it has received encouragement, es peeially for winter use, The real vir- tue of the powder wus that it served w supply sharp grinding mater the hens, thereby the food in the gi promoting dige of the condition factor to the hen that what their owne sider nece ide grit. The hens will iys give better results when supplied with sharp, gritty ma- terial, and it is economical to supply it, as there will be less waste of food and a greater proportion of gain from its use than if no grinding material is pro- vided. The proprietor powders was o bene- as he did for them did not con- LL YOUR FOWLS DRESSED. It may be more troublesome to kill and dress the poult but it pays to do s0. The dressed birds bring a higher price in the maviet, can be shipped more conveniently and at less expense, and sell more readily on avrival in market, Live birds seldom reach their destination without los As there is often a difference of five cents o pound between live and dressed poultry the value of a carcass may be inc from 30 to 40 cents, while the fi are also an item of profit. More chicks are lost when four or five weeks old, in winter, than when th ave younger, as they become too large for the hen to hover them properly. A hen should not huve more than eight chicks in cold weather, The lice do not cease work in winter, A warm poultry house 15 as favorable to them as to poultry. Hens may be keptin larger flocks 1n the winter than in summer, as crowd- ing on the roost is not so injurious. A eross male should never be kept. He will sometimes kill the chicks that come up to feed with the laying hens, and will not permit the cockerels to eat at the trough. Never fatten a turkey ina coop. It is a bird that loses flesh if confined too long. The hen that keeps herself busy seratching in the manure heap will al- ways prove to be a good layer. Indus- try and egg production are inseparable with hens. Diggiag Sweet Potatoes, We doubt if there is any erop which in ordinary years can be grown with more satisfaction than sweet potatoes. There are surely but few vegetables so l—mmmnlm yet many do not raise them u any quantity on.account of the trouble of keeping them through the winter. The potatoes are usually dug with hoes, but in large quantities may be dug in &n eusier manoer. A8 5000 4s a heavy frost strikes the vines, says the Ne- braska Farmer, whiob is readily known bf the leaves turning back, cut off the vines close to the ground; then, with a heavy two-horse plow, throw two potato rows together; then follow, remove the tubes carefully from the stems and lay them on_the soft soil between the rows %0 dry off, which they will do inan hour orso, They must be handled as care- fully as eggs, especially at this time, as the skin is very tender and can be rubbed off by the hand, nor should they ever be thrown, butcarefully laid down, This is a very important feature of safoly keeping them through the winter, HOW TO PLEASE THE PALATE, Hounsckeepers Shoutd Understand the Science of Seasoning. Women and housekeepers well know the value of a new receipt for ‘‘some- thing good,” for ignominious as it may be to acknowledge, ofttimes such dis- coveries aid materially in oiling the household machinery. Verily, many a housowife is perploxed to the verge of distraction in the ar- rangement of the daily ““bill of fare,” as she turns over in her mind the saume old rules und receipts and the same old enumeration, ham, lamb, beef, or mut- ton, snys the New York Star. She is fortunate above the others of her sex who has a gift for cooking; more valus able will it sometimes prove than the often envied gifts of tongues or of song. Such a woman will run downstairs a few minutes before dinner, and by a dash of some foreign seasoning into this dish and a whisk of some flavoring into that, and a wineglass of something else into the gravies, send a dinner as toothsome as any from the hands of a famous chef, and will be a joy to her husband all her days. For a good table, a well- served meal, something that piques a cultivated taste or palate, delights the ordinary male, and the oxtraordinary ones are so rare to sce that they don't count. Too little attention is paid in most houses to the seasonings with which the kitchen storeroom is kept supplied; if salt and pevper be the only things goneraliy depended upon, why nsould it be expected that there should be a variety of lavors? Truly these are the only absolute necessities to make dishes palatable, but the necessities of life never include the delicacies. To- morrow’s warmad-over relies from the grand dinner of to-day, which is a ne- cessity in household economy, will be very unappetizing if the science of uu;\snning only goes as far as pepper and salt. It is easy enouhg to order a roast of beef and have it properly cooked and served, but it i3 a problem to know what to do with what is left, for a roast of beef under cight or ten pounds is not worth the serving—half the delicious- ness of the meat is cooked out when the roast is small—but there are few families who can malke way with such a quantity of meat at one dinner. hence arises the necessity of ser the remainder a second time. A Pretty Ornament. 1f you have a soiled or smoked spot on your walls, 1f the smoke has pufled around the stove-pipe hole, or you have some blank space that you want to beau- tify, make a big fan and cover it. If you have smooth wrapping paper, take, suy three sheets of it, paste togeth ends to make a long strip. spread smoothly on the table, pieces of wall paper. Use just what- ever you happen to have. Tho nicer the paper the prettier the fan will be. Put on the pieces in any way. like ci patch work, or like Japanesse de ,or to suit your own fancy. Use a o of border, or a pretiy strip for a finish at one’ edge. When dry and smooth, plait the paper just as the school gitls do a strip of newspaper, into a fan. Fasten the end that is not finished with a border with stout cord,and cover the spot with a rib- bon bow or paper roses, or & tuft of paper cut into a fringe.
