By a change of venue his counsel had the case removed to Craw- ford county, and the date of the sixteen year commitment to the Western Beniten- tiary reads from Meadville. Ward new states that afterward meeting Charles Staflord, by some manoeuvre he accom- plished an exchange of vests, and then left the State. The excitement over the event was intense. By a queer combination of circumstances Stafford, among others, was arrested on suspicion, and the girl. remembering the bright colored pattern of the vest her assailant were, declared him the guilty man. That vest exchange has kept Charles Stafford a prisoner in solitary confinement almost eight years, and until Ward’s confession his prospects were first-class for the full term. Measures are now being taken to ascertain the full text of the statements made in the letter from Pentwater, and Sherifi Statiord confidently expects to secure sufficient evidence to warrant the arrest of Ward, which Ward wants. and release the innocently imprisoned. He has been working up the case for a week past, and expects to make a move to-dayâ€"keepr ing up communication with the parties in the Michigan settlement, and a close eye on the movements of Ward.

The sheriff received a letter from inter- ested parties a few days ago, which made strange revelations to him. throw- lng li ht upon a hitherto dark matter.

It is sur rising how much like a seven-day clock t e brain will work, if the habits of a" Sunday nap " be once formed. Nature will take advantage of it as regularly and gratefully as she does of the nightly sleep, and do her best to make up lost time. People, on the other hand,whose week of toil is chiefly physical. may well give their minds activity while the body is resting. Two sermons and three or four hours of solid readin are a real rest to some on Sunday, whi e to others such a course amounts to a positive Sabbath- breaking. Sunday is a day of rest, not work, re igiousor otherwise. It is a day for repose, not exhaustion.

At St. Paul, Minn, Senator Coohrane was recengy interviewed by a corres- ndent. c said he had a grant from the vernmeut of one hundred thousand acres of land, some three hundred miles north of the boundary, on the route to be traversed by the main line of the railway to Fort Calgary, and that he had made arrangements to send in this season eight ‘ thousand head of cattle mostly from Mon- tana, and had in addition, imported seven , oarlcads of thoroughbred stock, taking them ; to Bismarck over eNorthern PacifioRail- 1 way, thence up the Missouri by Forts Buford 1 an Benton, and finally driving them by} tedious and dangerous marches four hun-c dred miles to his ranche on the. plains at, the foot of the Rocky Mountains. The expedition, even with men and horses, is no light undertaking, and no one needs. venture upon it who has not airflously learned the science of natation. . Cocho rane’s party drove four-in-hand, both men and horses swimming the rivers. They were out twenty-four (is s, and made about thirty-five miles per ay.

When the herd increased to 20,000â€"whioh he looked forward to in the not distant futureâ€"he thought the resent 100,000 acres would be quite too 'mited for their operations. The country is so exceedingly bare of wood that they had to carry for 200 miles enou h to cook their provisions, and they use Buffalo chips wherever they could find them. Housing the cattle in winter was therefore not to be thought of. Indeed, it was held to be unnecessar , as the snowfall is here light and dry an the animals are able to winter out. Fencing even will be only on the most economical scaleâ€"merely as enclosures for the finer breed of stock and for the horses. He was not under apprehension from depredations by Indians, who I had learned had proved so troublesome in running off the cattle of early squatters in this regionâ€"no doubt having the means, on the large scale on which he is operating. of giving his pro- perty adequate protection, without the intervention of the Mounted Police, who, rightly enough, say they are not there for any such purpose as the protection of the cattle of those who squat on Government lands. Mr. Cochrane’s party met with vast herds of bufi'alo on the Missouri ‘River, and two of the hunters by :staying over a day killed no less than fifteen of the bisons. The steamer at a sudden bend actually ran into a herd of buffalo as they swam across the river, and the passengers were able to reach out their hands and pat their shaggy coats. A bufialo calf, which had been captured alive, was the pet of the boat, following the men and passengers in and out of the gangway at all the stopping places. Mr. Cochrane had full faith in his experiment, although acknowledging it was as yet but an experi- ment; so much faith that he has already invested in it over $200,000. He hoped by the time they were in a position to ship to be able to send out his cattle by a more expeditious and less dangerous route.

The plan is an inexpen- sive and simple one, an consists in giving the melon three or four coats of varnish to exclude the air.

The Chinese and Japanese build most of their vessels of teak. This wood is very durable and will stand the water better than any other w ood that is used for ship. building. According to the Australasian Shipping News, there lies at the bottom of Dusky Bay a large vessel that can be plainly seen in clear water. She has been there for centuries and the Maoris have a legend about her. They say that their grandfathers told them that in their child- hood a large vessel sank in Dusky Bafi; that the crew managed to reach one of t e ismall islands and after living there for years died off one by one. Who they were or where they came from the Maoris could not say. A diver is said to have examined the myfterious old hulk.

Fancy the lastnamed achievement being danced by 300 little female feet, amid countless “ pirouettes” and frequent “ bal- lonnements ” of gauze pettiooats.

Among the death certificates issued yes- terday was one for the burial of Alice Lamont. who died at the Female Hospital on Saturday afternoon. Lead poisoning was put down as the cause of death. Alice Lamont was the leading lady at the Globe Theatre two weeks ago under her maiden name, Miss Alice Ridgeway. Just two weeks ago she was carried from the theatre to the Female Hospital. On Saturday she died, only a few moments before her hus- band arrived at her bedside. Theysaid she died of “ lead poisoning.” That means that the woman was poisoned by a lotion used by most actresses and many society ladies to beautify the complexion. It is composed of “ fiakawhite. a. refined car- bonate of lead, rose water, glycerine and bismut ." So says Miss Dollie Leland, who knew the make-up of Alice Lamont. “ We all use something of the kind, as you must have observed." said the other Miss Leland. “ Alice naturally had a good com- plexion, being a perfect blonde, with bright blue eyes. But in her anxiety to add to nature’s work she caused her own death.

An interesting discussion followed with regard to the black knot, which seems to be the great plum pest in the northern part of Ontario. Nearly every one present could say something upon the topic. The following summary of what was said we 9‘19“} .. - As to the origin of the disease, nobody seems to be certain. It was at one time thought to have been caused by an insect. but the Secretary. who had 'ven the matter great attention, had con oed himself that it was not caused by aninsect. but was a diseased growthâ€"whethertungus or not he was not prepared to say. He had not found the usual characteristics 0! fungus. One local grower asserted that thorough under drainage would keep orchards almost free from the pest; while another told of his orchard, which was underdrained and had a gravel‘ subsoil. that water could not possibly lie, and this year his trees were generally attacked. The present year was generall spoken of as one of the worst years for {lack knot, and instances were related of other particular {years when the disease had heen epeoig 1y p_1:_eva.}ent;z The theory vgaa broached that 'the hard winter and dry season had something to do with it, but none had watched the other cars to know whether they correspond in this particular. Blue plums were attacked worst. but all kinds were liable, the yellow not so much, the Pond Seedling being the only variety mentioned in which black knot had not been observed. Two or three advanced the theory that black knot was spread by propagating trees trorn suckers, but the Presldent related an instance 91 trees that had been cut down because cl black knot, and new trees propagated froih sprouts at the roots were free from the disease. As to whether the disease spreads from orchard to orchard. some doubted it. but the general opinion was that it spread. the President. relating how he was unable to keep down black knot in his orchard while his neighbor ne looted to out it out; but on asking his neig bor to out it out. he was able to keep the disease down in his own orchard. The only remedy that was known was cutting out th_e knot and burning itas soon as it appeared. Several said that the way it had attacked the trees this year they would have to be out down altogether. Trees on which it was allowed to remain would be killed in two or three years. Judge Macpherson raised the question of whether black knot would not attack forest trees, and related an instance of where it was seen in a beech tree. but Mr. Drury and others thought it was not genuine black knot, and that our forest trees were not in danger. Several said that the best thing that could be done was to enforce the act now on the statute book. BOMETHING ABOUT THE ammo. The Secretary, at the request of severe! local men, gave an interesting description of the oureulio and how todeel with it. The insect, he said, made ssmell half- moon shaped puncture in the plum, in which they lay their_ eggs. this develeps into a. worm, which penetrates to the stone, when the plum drops 011'. The worm then comes out and enters the ground, where it develops into the perfect insect and comes out again reedyto to at its operations. The way to deal wi them was to go early in the morning and smartly jar the trees, having previously spread. 3 sheet under, and then gather u and destroy themâ€"this to be ropes each day until you find no more onroulio.

Mr. Beadle exp lslnod. that at attacked the tree at the base. It was easily prevented by washing the tree w_ith soft soap, potash, o_r glkali any kind The eodlin moth is known in the Owen Sound region, although the proper plan of dealing wrth it does not seem to be under- stood. It was explained that the moth laid its eggs on the blossom end of the applzhor wherever the apple or crab apple ton on againstya leaf or other substance. The worm penetrated to the core of the apple, and after attaining its growth came out to the surface, when it went for shelter in which to st into the chrysalis state. Mr. Beadle re ated that in Rochester he went to see a factory for apple drying, and found them cart us away the peelings and cores. He asked where they were going. and was told to the jelly factory,wherethey made all kinds of jelly. On ex ressin surprise, he was shown pots of jelly abell with names of difi'erent fruits, but a made from the apple cores. They were flavored with the different flavors and readily sold for jellies of those fruits. He thought grinding them up in this way. or in a cider mill, was a capital way of gettizg rid of the codlin moth.
