I ryor in recent years has been a

he was one of the young bloods of
Virginia whose fervor helped to fmt

conflagration. 73y n. curious coinci-
dence he was one or the party that
demanded the surrender of Fort
Sumter. With breathless interest I
listened to him one night as be told
the story of the eventful day when
he and his friends paid a, visit to
Fort Sunder with the demand that
the northern troops should give the
place up.
And so it was that this interview,
fateful with scene awftd consequences
-to end in the destruction of a,
lion lives -took place with pleasant-
ness on both sides. The garrison re-
ceived the deputation in a hospita-
ble spirit; drinks even, were exchang-
ed. But both sides took up their
position with that inflexible and
iron determinetion which is another
American quality.
FORT SUMTER.
And then the confederates went
away; and soon, after the order was
given that the fortress was to be
attacked, and that the first shot in
the fight was to be fired. Lightly,
I dare say, these wild young fellows
thought of what they were about to
do; for if the men of the south had
not been reciclese dare -devils they
would never have provoked this
struggle -the end of which was as
certain as anything could have been
in history. Somebody suggested to
Roger Pryor that his hand should
have the honor -as it was suppose

he was so young and so hot-headed,

ear that this might tura out to be

IN OUR OWN TOWS.
The last story on my list is of
our own time. Every -body knows
that the gallant old doubert, who
was the commanderoin-chief of the
Doer forces, was always an opponent
of Mr. Krueger and of the war. Nev-
ertheless, he went in with 13442 m
is cor-
trymen when the hour of danger
came; but he went with no doubt as
to the disastrous final result. He
and his troops were before Dundee;
mid then it was that what was
practically the first shot in the war
was fired. The scouts brought the
information that the English troops
were in possession of the town, and
It was resolved that they should, if
possible, be dislodged.
"All right," said Joubert, "bring
me the Staats Artillerie." The
Sta.ats Artillerie came up. "Fire,"
said Joubert. The shot was fired;
• and then, as the srnoke died away,
amid a thrill Joubert turned to his
officers and said: "There goes the
independence of the Transvaal."
Some months later the gallant vet-
eran was dead. Probably the. calara-
ities which he foresaw, but could not
prevent, had much to do with has-
tening his end.

WHY THE ONION SMELLS,
Tt is sulphur that gives the onion
its germ -killing property, and makes
the bulb so very useful as a medi-
cinal agent at all tunes, but especial-
ly in the spring, which used to be,
and still is in, many places, the sea-
son. for taking the brim -stone -and -
treacle in old-fashioned houses. be-
fore sulphur tablets came into
vogue. Now, sulphur, when united
to hydrogen --one of the gases of wa-
ter -forms sulphuretted hydrogen,
and then beconaes a foul smelling
compound. The oniore being• so
juicy, has a very large percentage of
water in. its tissues, and this com-
bining with the sulphur, forms the
etrongly-scented anti offeesive sub-
stance called sulphuret of allyle,
which.is found in all the anemia.
This sulphuret of ellyle mingles
more esPeelally with the volatile or
aromatic oil of the onion. It is
identical with the malodorant prin-
ciple found in asafoetida, which is
the symbol of alraoet all smells that
are nasty. Illhe horseradisee-so niece
liked with roast beef for its keen
and biting property -and the ordin-
ary mustard of our tables both owe
their strongly etimulative properties
to this same euiplitiret of allyle,
which gives them heat ma acridity,

TIM BOOBY/ORD.
The indifference of some fanners to
their home surroundings is surpris-
ing. Their wives, though passionate
lovers of flowers, must give up their
culture in the dooryard because
"husband basn't the time" (inclina-
tion would be a better word) to
surround the yard with a pig-prool
fence, and so the frisky pigs have
things their own way until they
get too large to squeeze through the
fetal. Some farmers have the time
but no money to spare to build a
suitable yard fence. The best they
can do is to repair the old fence and
train the dog to keep out the pigs.
Chickens are anothce lu1i8a11ce in the
dooryard. The habit, of throwing
scraps of food out at the back door
makes them worse. Never feed the
chickens near the house IS a good
rule if you do not wish to be both-
ered with them.
A PLOIVAIAN'S WORK -
The up-to-date farmer can estim-
ate ctuite closely what amount of
work his men do in Et day, ,and the
way in which he does it is -Cory in-
genious. Assuming that a good
plowman will walk about 18 miles a
day, he proceeds to determine how
much land will be gone over in tlithane
walk. The factor in the case is the
widthof the •plow. Cutting a 7 -
inch furrow,_ -a. full day's workwill
mean the plowing of an acee and a
quarter; ail 8-ineh, furrow will mean
an acre and a half; an 11 -inch fur-
row, two acres, and a, len-inch fur-
row, two and three-quarter acres.
Thus the -fEtrmer knows how many
men he needs before beginning the
work, andalso wlia,t each 112 1211
should accomplish every dale.
