The yellow tomato differs from the red,
in bearing more resemblance to a fruit in
its adaptability to preserving. Is is best
eaten with sugar, and choice preserves and
sweetmeats are made from this variety.
The red tomato is treated as a vegetable;
it is broiled, stewed, baked, escalloped,
stuffed and pickled, Both the red and
yellow tomatoes make excellent ketchup,
but that made from the yellow must not be
spiced so much, or the best flavor will be

Mrs. Sallie Hughes, supposed widow of the
murdered men, brought Bait against Jacobs

gal wife of John Hughes, and who began
init before the Probate Judge to set aside
the letters Of administration, and this is now
being tried.
The new claimant to the position of widow
of the murdered man is a woman of good
appearance about 55 years old. Mrs.
Amanda NI. Hughes is Ler narne, and she
conies from Habersham county, Georgia.
She says that Hughes earn° to that section

He very soon married Sallie Hughes, his

This story was corroborated by several
witnesses, among them W. J. Owin, who
was ordinary of Habersham comity, where

A cerresvondent writee as follows
One day when we were between the North
Palate River and the Laramie MotudainS,
and BOMO miles west of Fort Fettermec,
Wyo., while I was rid ug along the dry
bed of a little creek looking for water, 1 ea,w
a steckman coming across the ridge a
parter of a mile away. The pony on which
he was mounted came along on is swinging
gallop, and as he drew nearer I saw the
man had a little child, a boy not email
over 3 years old, in front of him on the
saddle. He came up and stopped, and we
eeL4agedin some commonplace conversation
about the distance to various ranches, our
destination, Ste. The boy in the mean
time had turned around and got up on his
feet in the saddle and put 0110 ATM sound
the man's neck and looked at inc shale
if he was mit mucb accustomed to seeing
strangers. The man was tall, perhaps more
kindly looking than handsome, and might
have been ;39 years of age. I suggested that
the boy appeared to be fond of riding for
ouch a little Rue, when the man said :
" Yes, Tot --I &Pays call him Tot—is a,
great rider, Re Call ride fifty mile a, day if 1

and he looked at the baby proudly, with
just a touch of sadness as he gave him a
little hug.

"Yes, a little, when, we go BO fur, but he
can stand thirty-five or forty mile an' be

WOMen'a Rights.
The rights of women have come into eon-
sidero.ble preteinence of late, and both men
and women have been disceseieg them with
a greet deal of lieennees and vigour. The
meet received opbaione the subject have
oftee been treeted with ceneternpt, and even
the apoale Paul lute reeeived but seat
eourtesy aud attention at the baud of those
who have felt that Pauline opinions and
theire on the subject could not be easily re-
conciled, There cisa be no question what-
ever that women ought to hews their
"righta." The very feet that they aro
rights puts that beyond ell question. But
the further queetion as to what rights really
are is not so easily answered with any great
measure of accurecy and precieima. What
rights have women as deughters? Hato the
father abeolute authority aver them 2 Can
be dispose of them as he pleases whether in
merriage or iu anything elee ? If each
authority is not absolete whet is the limit ?
Who shall, say? One saps one thing, one
another. Common opinion and practice
have varied oa differeat times and the abso-
lute parsntal authority has been more and
more shekel]. Whet rights have women as
sisters? Can they reasonably make any
claim upon their brother? It used to be
thought that they could. The full brother
was even more than the father the protee-
tor ef his sister's honour and the aven-
ger of her every wrong. Simeon and
Levi naturally and instinctively made
the muse of Dinah their own, and they very
resolutely set about washing out her wrong
and dishonor in blood. Is that still the
ease? 13ut all that implies protection, and
protection involves the idea of inferiority,
aud thetis the very thing egainst which the ad-
vocates of " VVonien"s Rights" the pre-
sent day protest. Well, what "rights" have
women as wives? Hitherto the huaband
has bad it pretty much his own way. He
has made the laws end he has made them
always to favor his own authority and the
supremacy of his sex. Does the wife belong
to the husband? Is she his property, his
"chattel," witb which he can do as he
pleases? That used to be the notion gener-
ally entertained. Sonae few still cherish it
as gospel ancl act upon it to the best of their
ability. They think a wife belongs to her
husband very much. as a horse or a house
doea. They hold that it is the right and

patience before one of these valuable gems
is got into that shape in which it will best
shine, sparkle, and show its purity. Nearly
half the diamonds produced in the world, the
best of which come from Brazil, are sent to
this factory to be out and polished. Here
the great Koh-i-noor was cut; and we are
down to the level of simple pocket -picking.
It is the same with boat races. There is
nobody now so simple as to believe in the
honesty of such affairs. It is all a mere
make-believe also, established for the pur-
poses of plunder. Base -ball, cricket, la-
crosse and all the rest of such things are
managed in the same way. Yacht -racing
might be thought different and yet appar-
ently it is not. The owners of the Thistle
think that it was doctored so as to make
the Volunteer's triumph a sure thing. Will
this miserable state of things ever go any
length in curing itself? It may in this way,
that when it is all recognized as a huge sys-
