Lord Garmoyle, defendant in the Fortes';'; cue breach of promise case, arrived' inSan Francisco on January 6th, froiti' ■•> China, He met with an accident on the' ' trip, and is temporarily crippled. A fewSan Francisco papers have been exceedingly discourteous in their illusions to Lord Garmoyle. An improbable story has been set afloat' by despatches, dated January 7, to the effect that the English detectives have obtained evidence that a powerful Society, of Dynamiters exists within the bound- ,/' aries of Westmoreland, County of Pen- / nsylvania, and that the society is directly responsible for the recent explosion and Jp assassinations in Great Britain, while the \ Irish-Americans scoff at the idea. A Greensbuirg correspondent says itis.certain there ha 3 been something in the wind in this country for some timp v past of an unusally exciting nature. ; Mrs Herman Alder, better known as Leonara Simonsen, the prima donna. Ad in San Francisco, on December 27t^ftf peritonitis.: Her Father, Mr Martin Simonsen, arrived' in San, Francisco the day before his daughters death. He is quite wild with grief, '■■"' '•'-■-;" The startling revelation has been made by a St.. Paul correspondent at -Fargo, Dakota, in his letter of December 29th, to the effect that the Dakotans,' being grievously disappointed and angered at the neglect with which they are treated by Congress, have proposed'to'join'the Manitoba people, some of 'whom;'are growling over their treatment'by : 'the Dominion Government, : m' forming a separate Republic. The „ New-. Tfork Tribute considers the proposition-ridicu-lous and impossible to be/ carried out, but the people are very much in earnest about the matter,
THE THUMB AND FINGER, \ Nothing is more characteristic of the «8B novice in gardening than ! a reluctance to use the knife. Many seem to fear that they will cause pain, and will'jft more cut their pet. plants than theywoura amputate the limbs of tbeir pet animals. Those who give proper attention to their plants, whether softwooded, or shrubs and trees, can avoid 'nearly all cutting by anticipating the need of-it. The shoots of all hard-wooded 'slirubs and trees are, at first, in their early growth, as tender as those of a geranium. These shoots of summer will, by autumn, have ripened and become as hard as the rest of the tree or shrub. Take a favourite pear tree, for example. If left toiitself, there will be found, when the leaves-'fall, shoots that are not wanted, but which as they make a thick and crowed head, must . be cut out. Had these shoots been entirely removed, or kept short by pihehing off their tips in the summer, there would have been no need to use the knife. Not only fruit trees, but flowering shrubs, can be greatly benefittee and kept in shape, if the owner who works among them will make timely use of the thumb and finger % to pinch off the growing points of all |>- shoots that push where branches are aat wanted. The same is true of soft woifi plants. A timely pinching of the shoow will convert a geranium that would be long-branched and "leggy 1 , into a compact specimen fit to remove to the window in Autumn. The chrysanthemum is a capital subject for the novice to try upon, and learn how readily the growth of a plant can be controlled by pinching,REMEMBER THIS.
