He says that he U writing but very few contracts for less than two acres', and the majority being for five acres; the largest contract is thirteen acres, made by Thos. Ross, of Marion. This in a branch of industry that brouga our farmers a large amount of cash, and with a good season is tho best faying crop that can be planted. As the time for planting is near at hand every person that desires to plant cur cumbers this year, should apply to Mr. Syk^s for contracts at the nearest con* venient time, to injure a chance to plant.. Judge Brown, of the United States District Court, at Detroit, rendered a decision recently that is of more than ordinary interest to inventors and to those who manufacture invented articles for which patents have beeo secured OE applied for. The action grew out of an alleged infringement on A gasoline vaporizer for stoves, invented by one Straight and further improved and manufactured by one Claytoni Straight bad applied for a patent^ and used the term so often seen, "patent applied for," on his vaporizer. The court held that this was no protection* that there could be no infringement of a patent until the patent had been issued, and none had yet been granted in this case. If Straight secures a pat' ent it will hold good against Clayton and all others from the date of its issue, but until that time the manufacture and sale of the article is free to all. The supposition has been heretofore that if the words "patent applied for1' were branded, stamped or printed on any article it would serve as a legal notice against imitatorsv but this,, it seems, was erroneous. Manufacturers of an article not . yet patented are,- under this decision, exempt from paying royalties even though a patent may have beenapplied for. They cannot, at least, be compelled to pay it, unless by mutual agreement. This may work hardship in some cases, as, through delays in the Patent Office, it often takes a great deal of time to secure examination and action upon applications, but this is only temporary. In the end, if the invention is patentable, the inventor will secure a patent for the full statutory term,-which will" not include the period between the application for the patent and the granter of it.—[Ann Arbor Courier. Obituary. Andrew J. Russell died very suddenly of paralysis of the heart, at his home In Marion, on Wednesdiy, May 2,1S89, at 5 olclbcfe a, m,, aged .'.? years. A. J. Russell was born at Manchester, Ontario Co., N Y,, Marsh 16, 1832, received his education at East Bloomfield academy in the same state. Commenced teaching school at the age of 16 and taught the school id his native town four consecutive ye .rs, came to Michigan in 1855, married Phoebe Aaldrich of Farmington, Oakland Co., where he was then teaching, Sept. 10,1857, continued teaching in differ ent towns in the state until the year 1863, when in the fall of that year he joined the Michigan Conference of the M.

Huston, the new treasurer of the United States, has long taken a prominent part in t h e politics of his state, Indiana, and he is also one of t h a t state's best known business men. He was born near Greencastle, Pa., and is now about forty years old. His father settled in Connorsville, Indiana, where he amassed a large fortune, which his son inherited. Mr. Huston has been for a dozen years at the head of the bank which his father established and i r a l s o largely interested in agricultural matters, being the owner of extensive farms. He has been in politics t^nce 188b\ when he was elected a member of the state legislature, in; 1885 he became a state senator. During the last two presidential campaigns he was chairman of the republican state central committee, and his position was a very responsible one as the whole election turned upon Indiana and New York'. His long experience gained in the banking business ought to make hira a very emVent treasurer. Solomon dcelarjd that " t h o r e was nothing new under the s u n / ' The pulpit crusade against the Sunday newspaper dates back far enough to be entitled to all tho reverence due age, although a few misguided "gentlemen of the cloth" imagine it to bo strictly original. The Sunday newspaper is a- n n r h a necessity with Americans as a warm dinner On Sunday. Preacher.? may jcomo and preachers may go, but tho Sunday newspaper will go on and grow more voluminous from year to year. The reverend centlemen and fanatics who are resolved to crush the Sunday paper do not take into consideration the fact that a greater part of the paper published Sunday morning is a product of Saturday's labor, and that nearly all of the articles in tho Sunday paper are written days before they are set in type. The only part of the Sunday paper produced after Saturday midnight is tho telegraphic and belated local news, the final make-up and press-work. These zealous workers will do better to consolidate their efforts in an effort to stop the publication of a Monday morning issue, as the paper for t h ; s day, and not the Sunday morning edition, is really the product of Sunday's Work. Turn your brimstone and saltpeter in some other direction, brethren, and let people enjoy their Sunday newspapers. -.-J The Russian minister of commerce has submitted to the emperor the plans for the great Siberian railway. T h e importance of this groat trunk line cannot easily be over estimated. It will open up a vast empire of wonderful mineral and agricultural resources and superior climate. Immigration will be attracted from eastern and south-eastern Europe, and capital will follow in the wake of the emigrant. There is no doubt in t h e minds of well informed people that Siberia will ultimately become one of the richest and most prosperous countries in t h e world. The western terminus oi the great Siberian railway will be Siatoust, a mining city in the province of Orenburg, connected with the great Russian railroad system by a branch road now in process of construction. It will, touch the cities of Omsk, Tomsk and Irkutsk, and strike the great river Amur at a point which h a s not yet been definitely located. C a s s l u t R e y n o l d s , a n Old C o w - Boy, S p e a k s of E a r l y Life o n t h o R a n g e s . The cow-boy from the west, if intelligent at all, can make himself interesting in the tales of western life and incidents of the plains, At present the Iceland has for a guest Cassius Reynolds, who has been on the trail fifteen years, and has the credit of having brought the largest herd of cattle —10,- 000 head—from Oregon to Nebraska that has ever been handled. Reynolds nipkes his home and headquarters at Fremont, Neb., but he buys and '•runs'1 his cattle through the season in Oregon. The feat mentioned above was accomplished ut a time when there was much danger from the redskins, and t h a t Reynolds should bring so many such a distance has always bean considered remarkable. His modesty proved a barrier to eliciting any details cf the trip beyond tho mere fact that iu going through Idaho he was attacked by a band of Indians on the war path, but by tho pluck and determination of his cowboys the reds were driven off and the destination was reached in safety with the loss of but few cattle.' In speaking about getting ready to start east Mr. Reynolds several times alluded to "the round up." He said in explanation of this term: "Tho expression is purely one. of western ranch lifo and rnnms a groat deal. One often hears about cowboys rounding up some cattle, but that is very simple, and consists merely in backing the broncos and herding a few head of cattle that have been grazing close at home and driving them into a corral. A very different affair from rounding up is 'the1 round up. This is the great occasion of the plains, so far as ranching is concerned. The preparations for it are extensive., for the work to bo dono is arduous and important. In the pursuit of their business ranchmen arc obliged to seek the plains of the far West where plowshare has as yet left untouched the natural grass, and thousands of acres lie unbroken by the presence of tho cultivated farm. Here, unrestrained, vast herds of cattlo are allowo.l to run at will, left to themselves to pick and graze all through the summer months, the keepers never giving a thought as to their whereabout?. These keepers live in camps and form a small-sized village, passing the time in eating, drinking and sleeping. Kach separate camp is the owner or keeper of hundreds of head, and, though they all run together, no difficulty is experienced in each claiming his own, and, strange to say, it is seldom one is missing. It is this getting the cattle together that is called the round-up. The day is set, and all the camps are notiflol t j be in readiness. A general rendezvous is settled upon, and then each camp is stationed at different points of the compass, forming a circle around that central point. At daybreak in each camp tho cook prepares a hearty breakfast, after which the cowboys ride at breakneck spoed over the country to certain stated points, and from there they begin a gradual closing in, driving all the cattle in sight before them to the central rendezvous. When they have cometogether a vast herd of cattle numbering perhaps some six to eight thousand head arc gathered together. Here begins an interesting piece of work called •cutting out,' and it consists in separating cows with calves by their sides from the rest and driving them into a corral. A cowboy rides headlong among the terrified cattle and, catching sight of his employer's brand upon a cow, never loses sight of her until she is safe within the in closure. Here the branding is done. Fires are lighted to heat the irons, which consist of straight edges and half circles, and with these shapes every letter and almost every usual brand can be burned on the hide. Three men work in each branding gang; one holds the head, another the hind legs and the third applies the iron. "In the corral, too, some dexterous work is done with the lasso in catching the wild and frightened calves that are to be marked. When a full-grown steer is to 'roped' the cowboy rides after him at full speed, and while the animal is straining every nerve to get away throws the loose around his neck, secures the other end to the horn of his saddle and at a signal from his rider the pony braces himself for the shock and the wild Texan is brought to the ground. During the round-up tho stampede is the great danger to bo feared. Little trouble is ever had in daylight, but at night a bright flash of lightening, the barking of coyotes or the scampering of a single steer may frighten a whole herd and start thorn flying in the wildest'confusion. When a stampede occurs the cowboys ride ahead of the running mass and endeavor to 'circle' the foremost animals and of straight ahead. Even the rockiest cowboy dreads t h e stampede, and well he may, for a false step of his horse may hurl h i m under a thousand hoofs where a horrible death is a certainty. Speaking of cowboys, those venturesome devil-may-care follows who m a k e life a burden to ilio tenderfoot, are a much abused a c t The tough ones have migrated and can be found among t h e Apaches, but those with whom I have associated were perhaps boisterous, and moderately addicted ti cards and whisky, but withal good-natured and g r e a t believers in fair play."—Chicago Sun.

A bill h a s been introduced into «bo Massachusetts legislature providing for the establishment of a hospital for inebriates in this stuto. Tho movement in this direction indicates a new development of knowledge and experience in regard to the treatment of habitual drunkards. Dipsomania is now distinctly recognized as a disease.

I^rrowc C R E M A T I N G A P R I N C E . T h e Burning- Up of a D e a d M e m o o - of t h e R o y a l H o u s e of S l a m . Tho cremation of the body of a Siameso Prince at B-mgkok is thus described by the Pall Mall Clazcttc: T h e king entered the phramanc about five o'clock amid much trumpeting and surrounded by a big retinue. He bowed to the dais and prayed, then ascended tho steps and entered the inelosnrc, and amid the loud chanting and tomtoming of the kowtowing priests lie fireu '.re pile beneath the urn and again praye.i. He descended and departed. Then the princes entered the inelosiuv and performed their obloquies, and then followed tlie native nobles, am on j,' whom we found ourselves. On the dais arourvl the urn was a. kind, of shelf, on which wore piled innumerable tapirs made of sandal- wood, rrankincens,* :ind wax. Kach person on entering lit a number of these and shoved (hem under the urn, which, by th:.> same token, wad' not much bigger Ihaa a decent-sized pot. How they ma lagod to stow the remains in it i d > not know. Tho abominable smell of frizzling human flesh that spluttered and spat in the pot, which the aromatic fumes of the sandal and frankincense failed to disguise, permeated the building mid drove us forth. Whoa the king had performed his obscquircs ho adjourned to a pavilion, where he held an audience. He seated himself on a kind of balcony, and several of his little children were brought to him. On another balcony on his right the numerous princes of royal blood seated themselves. The body of the pavilion was set apart for tho nobles, ministers,'1 and "distinguished foreigners,11 some of whom were ladies. When his majesty had sat for a time in silence he suddenly produced a ' l a r g e bag, full of green limes, each of which contained a small silver coin in its core. These he threw among the princes, nobles, and people to be scrambled for, but presented some by hand to the foreigners, especially to the foreign ladies Whan he had exhausted the contents of this bag he produced another containing nuts, which he treated similarly. Each nut contained a numbered ticket, with the name of the prize, as a kernel. The prizes were the personal effects of the deceased and were distributed in this way to be mementoes of him. Some of them were not bad, but many were naturally disributed ludicrously. One of my friends, a non-smoker, received an old and much-abused meerschaum pipe, another an old cigar-holder and a very common Chinese wood axe. A French lady of title received a man's shirt-front—a thing commonly called a "dickey;1' also an old pair of the dead m a n ' l o n g stockings and an old white waistcoat, all much tho worse for wear. I myself received a pretty little satinwood cabinet, and** was much Pleased. I heard that some of the prizes were costly articles of jowelry, but did not see any such.

Texas Siftings. ..t." ment must be based on sound medical and moral principles. The fact that dipsomania is a disease is already eonceded in the laws of the state which provide fw tho commitment of such persons VJ the insane asylums. But experience hits shown that, while the law is right in recognizing the disease, its disposition of tho victim is not fortunate or adequate. A large amount of testimony can easily bo gathered from superintendents of insane hospitals to show that such institutions ar3 not proper places for the commitment of dipsomaniacs or habitual drunkards. At the end of a few weeks, when tho paroxysm of inebriety has passed away, the patient is apparently well. He is at least no longer insane in any proper sense. It is not difficult to proeuro an early discharge; and the patient goes forth only to renew his debauch at the usual interval, and is perhaps recommitted to the asylum. What he really needs is to be treated, not for insanity, but for drunkenness. The methods of treatment are not identical. An habitual drunkard needs to be restrained long enough to establish the physiological changes necessary to a permanent euro. He needs also to be brought under the constant pressure cf moral influences which shall develop and strengthen the power of seL'-control. Nor is a prison any more than the insane asylum the proper place to commit habitual drunkards who are not crimlmrls. The drunkard who.commits a <erimo against society while under tho influence of liquor becomes amenable to the criminal law. .The drunk*, ard who has not in other respects a bad repute, but yields to the domination of this form of self-indulgence, belongs to a different class. In both cases the aim of society should b3 the same—the reformation of the victim. But tho proper classification may lead to a distinction between thorn. The time will come, we trust, when all prisons will be regarded as moral hospitals. But that time has not yet arrived. A prison is .still popularly regarded as a place for the inlliction of punishment. Incarceration carries with it the stigma of criminality. There ere those who feel that the drunkard or the opium eater, who is simply guilty of a sin against himself, should not be placed in prison with those who are guilty of sins against society. We do not think this reasoning should be pushed too fur. Wo believe that every man who yields to self-indulgence violates not merely his obligations to himself, but obligations to society and to posterity. And it may be shown that the drunkard who bequeaths the terrible consequences of his indulgence to his children has done vastly more harm by his life In the world than the man who st2als a few dollars from his neighbor and is branded as a thief. It is not necessary here, howevor, to press points of casuistry. We simply urge that this matter be approached in a practical way. It is a simple fact that a large percentage of inebriates may be cured if placed under proper conditions. Theso facts are amply supported by the testimony of medical men and of experienced temperance workers. It is further reinforced by tho statistics of the most successful private inebriate asylums. But such asylums are not available to many of the poor, nor can they command those conditions which may be provided by state institutions. The difficulty in private institutions is that tho patient wishes to decide for himself when his cure is completed. His judgment docs not agree with the judgment of his physician, but the latter has no power to restrain him. The bill before the Massachusetts legislature grants a power of restraint over the patient extending to two years. It provides for the commitment of' the inebriate under proper legal form and on sufficient medical evidence. It also protects the inmate against the possibility of unjust detention; and, should it become a law, as we trust it may, those inebriates who are now sent to insane asylums, and many that are sent to reformatories, would bo committed to its care. The bill has been carefully drawn by medical and legal experts, and Massachusetts now has an opportunity of t r y i n g - a n experiment which ought not to be longer delayed. Every step in the classification of disease and crim* is a step in advance. The now institution, if established according to depot and post-office; but ton to one you don't inquire if there a r e any borrowers in the neighborhood. Now, a chronic borrower is a deadly nuisance in a community. A woman who is always "just out1' of saleratus will stir up more trouble in a neighbor; hood than a mad dog, and a fl fifteen hens, and a rooster. She will run in on you at any an hours, and want to borrow just a I sugar, or spice, till she can send to tho grocer's. Sho really did not know she was anywhere near out, till she wont about her cooking, and then she found that she hadn't a dust of sugar in the house, and not a soul around anywhere t h a t sho could send out after any! And she will tell you t£at she does so hate to trouble you; for if there is anything on'earth that she dislik.ejs_to do, it is to borrow—and she neve it when she can help it; but no pie crust is all on the plates, was obliged to, because she cou' spare the time to run to t h e grocer's. And she will sit down in your kitchen, and stop half an hour, and talk about everybody iu town; and, meanwhile, she will take an account of evervihing her eyes fall on, and she will see behind your stove the cobwebs that you forgot to brush down this morning; and she will notice the old boots t h a t your husband left on the wood-box to dry, and sho will see that your lamp chimnies have not been washed, and that your dishes are in the sink, and that you had ham for breakfast, by' the spatter of greese on the stove; and when sho goes into some other neighbor's house, on a borrowing expedit i o n , she will give a report of what she saw in your kitchen, and swear the neighborhood over to eternal secrecy regarding it; and tho consequence will be that in a week i t . will be all over town that your folks Hvo on ham, and that you are the most untidy housekeeper on tho footstool. When the borrower returns what she borrows, it is always in a little smaller measure, if, indeed, she returns it at all. And you may congratulate yourself if you get half what belongs to you. A regular borrower will borrow everything, from a piece of salt fish for breakfast, down to your boy, if you have one. Tho book borrower is oven a greater nuisance than the woman who borrows household supplies. She never hesitates to ask for the choicest or costliest books in your house. And she seems to think that she confers a favor on you by so asking. And if you are fool enough to lend, the possibility is that you will have to go after the book in question, and will find on doing so, that she has lent them to some friend of hers, who wanted to road them; and she will tell you t h a t sho knew you would be willing—you are no good-natured. In the course of our life we have been asked to lend everything *in the book line that ever we owned, except our Bible, and somehow nobody has ever seemed to care about borrowing that; and hi nine times out of ten, when we have complied, our literature has come back to us in a shape that fitted it only for kindlings—if, indeed, we were lucky enough ever to set eyes on it. So wo say to all our friends, if it be possible to avoid it, never have a borrower for a neighbor.—Kate Thorne, iu Now York Weekly. »/ I A Dinner in Siam.

One of t h e worst accidents *hat has oc c u r r e i on t h e Grand, T r u n k railway for years took place a t seven o'clock on the morning of April 28 about three miles west of Hamilton, Ont. T h e engine of the St. Louis express, from Windsor to Suspension Bridge, Jumued the track a t Junction Cut and pitched into the water tank. T h e baggage car and smoker, immediately in the rear, telescoped and took tire before tbo passengers could be got out or any aubitstan ze rendered. The lire communicated to the four cars in t h e rear, and they were scon in Humes, but t h e passengers managed to get out of t h e latter curs und tried to save those jn tho others, but without sutco9ft. The tank was so badly wrecked that the supply of water was almost entirely cut off, und what water could b j got bad to be taken from t h e wrecked engine aud lroin other locomotive* in the vicinity. There were about thirty passengers in the smoking cur and as tar as known thirteen got out. Two were killed iuBtautly—one, Mr. L. F . Gurney, who wii3 on his way from Chicago to New York, the ottrfr »n Italian, name unknown. Fifteen bodtea were taken out uf the wreck, which, with the two killed and thirteen rescued, all move or less wounded, mattes up the thirty who are Bupposed to have been in t i e smoker. None of tho train men wo: e seriously injured. Edmund Chapman of Loudon, fireman, had his right arm burn'jd and suffered a scalp wound. None of the fifteen bodies taken out after t h e lire have been identified, and it is doubtful if any will be for some days, as they were all badly charred and unrecognizable. Many were mangled badly before the car took flro, a n d some were taken out all in pieces. Tho tif teen killed were all huddled together in the forward end of the smoker. The baggage car jumped over the top of the engine and was curried down on t h e track about 100 yards «head of it. T h e railway company and t i c city officials did all in their power to help the wounded, twelve of whom were taken to the city hospit-.il. The others had their wounds dressed a t t h e scene of the accident and went on their wny oa a spe.'i <1 train.

From 11 profusely illustrated series of Articles on tho l e n t e u n a l of inauguration in the April Century we quote tho following: "Washington was dressed in a full suit of dark.brown cloth, manufactured m Hartford, with metal buttons with an earle on them, and with a steel-hilted dress sword, wuite silk stockings, and plain silver shoe-buckles. His hair was dressed and powdered in the fashidu of tho day, und worn in a ba<,' and solitaire. Chuiicelior Hobert li.

Just before tho outli was to bo..«thintnsiercd it was dircoverod thai -no'biblo was in Federal Hall. Luckily Livingston, a Grand Master of Free Masons, knew that there was one at St. John's lodge, in the ei y assembly rooms near by, and a messenger was dispatched to borrow tho bible, which is to-day the property of St. John s lodge No. 1. the third olaest Masonic lodge iu the Uuited States. "Secretary Otis of the senate h(\d before him a red velvet cushion, upon which rested t h e open liible of St. John's Lodk.'e. 'You do solemnly swear,' said Liviugton, 'that you will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will, to the best of your ability, preserve, protect and defend the constitute n of the United States.' He then bowed his head and kissed the sacred book, and with the deepest feeling uttered t h e words- 'So help me God.' Tho Chancellor then proclaimed: 'Long live George Washington, President of the United States'.' The instant disehargoof thirteen canuon followed and with leud repeated shouts and huzzas tho people cried: 'God bless our Washington; long live our beloved President:' T h e President bowed to tho people, and the air again rang with acclamations. Washington, followed by the company at the balcony, now returned to the senute chamber, whero he took his seat, and the senators and representatives their seats. When Washington arose to speak all stood and listened 'with eager and marked Attention.' •'After delivering his address, t h e president, accompanied by tho \ ice president, the speaker, t h e two housos of congress, and all who attended the inauguration cere mony, proceeded on foot to St. Paul s church. The same order was preserved as in t h e procession from t h e President"s bouse to Federal hall. Tho military 'made a«good flsrure' us thoy linej the street near the church. T h e services iu the church were conducted by the chapUin of the senate, t h e Ht. Uev. Dr. Samuel Provoos*. bishop of t h e Episcopal church of Now York. "After prayers had been read and the Te Deum sung, Washington entered the stato coach and was escorted Home." of N E B R A S K A . K A X R A S , ( O L O K A W O and W Y O M I N G .

WASHINGTON, APRIL 29. 1889. Despite the vast amount of fun the # newspapers are having over the squabble of McAllister's four bund red and 'the New York aldermen over the question of precedence at the Centennial celebration of Washington's inauguration, the interest is deep and wide spread and the observance 'of the day will not be restricted to the crowds in New York. Ttifcday will-be observed here not only as a public holiday, bat as the anniversary of a supreme event in American history. It may be the agitation over the celebration that has so largely increased the number of'visitors to Washington's old home, Mount Vernon on the Potomac. I was surprised on a casual visit last week when I counted seventy- five people in the party and the guide told me that the number, in any sort of weather, during the past winter, so long as the boat had been able 'to rua, had not fallen below fifty. Think of the pilgrims to this tomb in a year; not uninterested visitors, not tourists who merely drop in to see such places in traveling, but people who came hundreds and ottimes thousands of miles to see this spot. I was struck by the eager interest taken in every feature by an English advocate in the party. On the boat g^ing back he said that more than anything else he had looked forward in visiting America to seing Mount Vernon. He had his pockets stuffed full of photographs by Mr. Diliion and bulbs purchased from the estate's conservatory, and looked supremely happy. To tell the truth the foreign visitors are far more enthusiastic admirers of Washington than are Americans. While a great number of our scholars have been keeping up -a post-mortem hunt tor his faults, the students of other countries have regarded him only as the grandest historical figure in the annals of modern struggles for liberty. The old place at Mount Yernon h, however, eloquent eyidenee of the esteem in which the father of his country is held by his people. Every year sees improvements made on the estate. The mansion stands at a considerable elevation above the river, but the descent is in no place very precipitous. within the last two years, a pr.vate donation has entirely restored the old deer park of Washington's day on this old river front A great stone wall and a fine iron fence, with a particularly imposing gate, now incloses the dark, and a score of deer may he seen. So in the mansion, the donations are continually coming in, and the pieces of old furniture and brie-a-braek are so numerous.as to unduly crowd some of the rooms. If generous souls would now buy back the library, which was sold sometime in the thirties to the Boston library, the furnishings would appear as complete as possible. The eld tomb where the remains of George and Martha Washington reposed prior to their removal to the present tomb, has been fully restored within the past two years. In fact the thought and zeal exhibited by the ladies of the Mount Vernon Association are a monument to American woman hood. The old church at Alexandria, from which just a hundred years ago last month', George Washington issued and rode away to be inaugurated at New York, is as carefully preserved. I was seated just back of the old Washington pew last Sunday, and I tried to imagine how George must have longed to be out of that pew on such Sundays, when the spiritual food offered by the pastor was particularly stale, and when he had but to look out of the window to see the budding leaves of the trees beckoning him away, and but to listen to hear the birds calling each cthsr among the headstones in the churchvard outside. If George had not been busy living out an historical existance, I believe he would have induced himself to cut the long service and go away for a walk. I CHELSEA, MICHIGAN.

The Management of the Pontiac AsylQtu Praised—Attendants Blamed. The report of the special committee on investigation of the Eastern Michigan asylam for the insane has been presented in tbe house and accepted without d scussiou. It Is signed by Representative* W. W. Williams, K. R. Pealer and J a m e s A. Randall. *the committee on t h e part of t h e house, a n i by Hal C. Wyman, M. D., appointed by the Governor. The following shows the conclusion reached by t h e committee on the Bateson case: The testimony of Allen as to what took place after B a t e : on was received at the asylum, goes far to confirm u s in our belief that the fatal injury occurred there. From the testimony takeu, no one of the cotnini,- tee entertains the opinion that Bateson was seriously injured between Bay City and Owos.o. I t is possible b u t not probable t h a t he w a i injure J a t Owosso Junction by his attendants, when they threw him ou the bed and handcuffed him. Yet the committee ail agree in the belief and concur in the opinion that Batescn's injuries were received a t t h e asylum at t h e hands of the attendant and watchman in their efforts to subdue and quiet him, but that it was an accident resulting from t h e struggle or fall. The post-mortem examination showed that he had sustained a fracture of two ribs and the separation of the curtilage of five others, us well as a puncture of t h e left lung, and that his death resulted from this cuu.-e Testiinony qt medical experts, b^th oral and published, w a s adduced snowiug that the nones in such cases us that of Bateson bee,me veiy brittle, and t h a t a light b.ow or pressure will often break iheai. Making all due allowance for the attendants ;;nd *ho circumstances as they appeared to them, we cannot find that their treatment on that occasion w a s prudent, and therefore* cannot exonerate them from all blume. The committee says,re3pectlng the Davis caro, that after hearing the testimony it was forced to a different conclusion from the coroner's jury which exonerated Attendant Taylor from all blame. The report says that Taylor's handling of Davis was unnecessarily severe, although with no intention of doing him serious injury. Relative to the walk which Davis was required to take after he was in.ured, the committee says: j.hat Taylor should have required Davis, to take such'a walk, uuder all the circumstances, without inquiring or investigating as to whether lie was injured or not, shows a lack of feeling or judgment; if there was no clement of c u e l t y , there was at least gross stupidity. One rule which is especially enjoined on all attendants requires them to control their temper in handling patients. TaL\lor admits that he violated tills rule. It may bo questioned how far Taylor is morally censurable, as all men can not af, sill times be expected to rein J in cool under great provocation; but we think there can be no question now as to the unfitness of both Allen and Taylor for the responsible and delicate duties of the positions which they held, whatever their previous lvcord may have been A careful examination by your committees of the cause of doa hs occurring at the asylum for the past year, showed that four persons died from injuries to the ribs and breast bone, viz: William Hadder, John Flanuery, George Bateson and VVm. Davis; and the injuries of two or more of them v/ere received on chairs or settees. No one attendant had charge of any two of these cases. Ti.e committee speaks oi the rules adopted by the institution, and says in conclusion : The executive management of the institution is, in the opinion of your committee, in charge of men fitted tor the work by professional traiuiug and practic.il experience, and is all that could bo desired and hoped for. Great care is taken to seeure proper and efficient attendants, but with these attendants hired at low wages, and much of the time of necessity having sole charge of the patients, the desired results cannot be obtained, despite tho most vigilant supervision. We found nothing which should impair public confidence in the medical staff; ou the contrary, we be,ieve it is conceded by those best informed that the medical superintendent of the eastern Michigan asylum for the insane stands at the head of his profession; that he is a loader in all the advanced ideas i : :.1^ treatment of the insane, and that no one person has done more than he to place the Michigan asylum at the head of such institions in this country. T H R E E LIVES LOST. Another Man May Die.—Death Caused hy Suffocation. Fire broke out in a saloon and lodging house on Cadillac Square, Detroit, Easter Sunday. As soon as the ilames were sufficiently under control to warrant an entrance into the building the firemen forced their way in, and in a moment or two emerged carrying the frightfully burned body of Malachi Powell, a man of all work about the place. Powell was burned principally nbout the head, face, arms and hands, his hair being s.nyed oif in several places, while the skin on his forehead had peeled off and hung down over his eyes. Ho was conscious and suffering terrible agony, throwing his head from side to aide, groaning pitibly, while his body was contorted by the unbearable pain that racked his eutire being. He was laid on the sidewalk, and cared for by Dr. J. J, Mulheron until the arrival of ihe Emergency hospital ambulanea, which conveyed him to that institution. A short t.nie alter Powell w> s brought out the firemen returned to the street bearing the body of Wm. Whitaker, a colored porter, who was found under a bed in a room on the fourth lloor with his coat sleeve tucked into his moutn. A moment aftor being laid on the sidewalk Whittaker expired. Returning to tho building the tireuien found the dead bodies of Kmersou .1. Gibson and Franklin T. Bolio on the fioor in a locked room in the third story. These bodies wfero also carried down stairs, out into the street and ptuced on the sidewalk beside those of Whittaker and Powell. The bodies of tho dead men were t iken tfl an undertaking establishment. Neither of tho throe were badly burned, death in each case being caused by suffocation.

C H A P T E R III. B e n e a t h Indiana's burning sun, a •strange, unspoksqn vajyue disquiet was •stretching wider; 'gathering strength by imperceptible, *low, but fatally sure increase. A storm whs c o m i n g up, darkening-, the air, m a k i n g i t h e a v y with as y e t broken thunder-clouds; a storm. ^credited and scoffed at by s o m e , but atehed w i t h h e a v y foreboding by the r ones, w h o yet, in their deepest dread, n e v e r fathomed the terrible horror of t h a t storm w h e n it should actually break over t h e devoted land, It was t h e y e a r in w h i c h t h e Indian m u t i n y broke eilt. T w o E n g l i s h ladies were returning from their morning ride, attended only by a native groom. A s t h e y approached a.road guarded by an E n g l i s h sentry, one of t h e ladies h a l t e d , and said petulantly: •'I h a t e t h e s e circumscribed limits, and I don't b e l i e v e t h e r e is a bit of danger. Such absurd nonsense! T h e s e n a t i v e s dare not hurt us. I a m g o i n g for a g o o d g a l l o p down here, Dorothy. Come along.

M Very well, then; I'll g o alone.1 ' " I am not afraid, but I don't intend to disobey rule3," the y o u n g e r girl replied. " N o n s e n s e ! Y D U know w h a t Sir P e t e r is—afraid of his own shadow. I never knew a greater coward. He is wild with terror and a n g e r because I won't g o back to England this month. I am charmed with Indian life, and I mean to h a v e a little more of it. Peter is such a coward, that he invents all kinds of imaginary terrors." "I don't think I should speak of my husband in .that way, Elvira," tho other interposed with a touch of sadness in her voice. " W e l l , as fiir Peter is not your husband but m i n e — w o r s e luck!—you'll let me speak of him as I choose, perhaps. I'm off for a g a l l o p down h e r e . " S h e turned her horse's head into tho forbidden road, but the sentry, w h o h a d stood unmoved while the brief discussion lasted, interposed now, p l a c i n g his hand on the horse's bridle. It was a wonderfully well shaped slender hand, \though browned by the sun Dorothy B e a u c h a m p noticed, but Lady R u s k i n w a s too indignant to observe anything, e x c e p t tho s t r e n g t h which stayed her horse's progress. "Pardon m3, but you cannot g o down this road, mndame," tho soldier said in respectful but very low accents. He did not look at her as he stood there, and his s h a d i n g h e l m e t half-hid h i s face. " T a k e your hand off my bridle!" Lady Ruskin said imperiously, w a v i n g h i m aside. fc'J wish to 4*0 d o w n the road.11 Her wishes had been the spoiled beauty's law all her life. T h e soldier half smiled at her words, but replied quietly: "If you bring a passport,, madamo, .you can pass, not otherwise." "Such insdlence!" Her ladyship's •eyes flashed. " D o you know w h o I pray?" q u i v e r passed over the-part of tho face which could :be seen; it l i a v e been caused by a m u s e m e n t t h e attempt to concoal a smile.

" • -«I obey orders," be said, and c a l m - l y turned her horse's head in t h e c o n - trary direction. Lady Ruskin was beside herself with rage; leaning, s h e raised h e r r i d i n g w h i p and b r o u g h t it down w i t h " fcer force upon the hare hand h o l d - bridle. dier's teeth clenched, an t h e sed an instant v e a l across his but his steal-like g r a s p n e v e r relaxed. ••Elvira, c o m e along? W h a t are y o u doing?" h e r cousin uttered in 'tones of deepest shame. " T e a c h i n g this impertinent man Civility," Elvira responded, her eyes blazing with passion. Half beside horself, she raised hor Whip a g a i n to strike, but D o r o t h y s p r a n g forward t o interpose, a n d the blow fell u p o n h e r horee. I t p l u n g e d forward w i l d l y , then reared s t r a i g h t u p and i n a n o t h e r instant would h a v e l a l l e n b a c k w a r d uppn its rider h a d s o t the soldier w i t h marvelous promptit u d e a n d g i g a n t i c strength, left L a d y Ruskin's horde's bridlo and seized t h a t of h e r cousin. H e p u l l e d t h e terrified animal d o w n again, and then w i t h pats a n d low voice s o o t h e d i t Dorothy's face had g r o w n v e r y white; s h e h a d seen and t h r o u g h l y g r a s p e d t h e e x t e n t of the d a n g e r she had but just escaped. " T h a n k y o u , " she s a i d to the soldier, s p e a k i n g in very low but q u i t e steady tones, and bending t o w a r d s h i m the while. " T h a n k y o u a t h o u s a n d t i m e s . " "You a r 3 welcome,'" h e replied, but his voice sounded muffled, p e r h a p s because his head \7as bent o v e r the bridle h e still held. Elvira, a little ashamed of the consequences of her ebullition of t e m p e r , ' but very a n g r y still, rode s u l l e n l y away, m u t t e r i n g to her victor, "I shall report y o u a t ones."" Dorothy lingered behind to s a y in soft s w e e t t o n e s : 4'I m u s t a p o l o g i s e for m y cousin. She i s — w e l l , s h e h a s n e v e r b e e n used to be t h w a r t e d in all h e r life." "So I should believe."" A cynical s m i l e curved the well-cut lips, the o n l y feature D o r o t h y could clearly see. "Of course I know y o u w e r e o n l y o b e y i n g orders, a n d doing y o u r d u t y . " " T h a n k you.1 1 Tho tone sounded saTcastio. Miss B e a u c h a m p was half d i v i d e d w h e t h e r to be attracted or r e p e l l e d by this man a g a i n s t w h o m s h e h a d so curiously drifted, but s o m e t h i n g in the proud e a s y figure, t h e finely-poised head, a s * h e regarded it, interested h e r insensibly; and t h e n her g l a n c e fell on h i s hand, s w o l l e n and red now and i n an agony of s h a m e she cried: " l a m BO g r i e v e d my cousin forgot herself so strangely. Does y o u r h a n d — I hope it does not—pain y o u m u c h ? " T h e man l o o k e d down upon the hand for s o m e m i n u t e s before he replied in odd quiet tones: "I h a v e b o r n e worse than t h i s , thank y o u . " "I would b a n d a g e it if y o u w o u l d let me; I hai\e bome lotion " " T h a n k s . I think I will keep it as a m e m e n t o of a strange meeting." T h e n with a swift g l a n c e into the lovely distressed face w h i c h w a s half turned aside, he added w i t h a sudden t o n e in the low d e e p voice which set all the girl's pulses beating: ' • l a m grateful beyond measure for all your kindness, it is only what I should have e x p e c t e d from you, but still " He paused .abruptly, and D o r o t h y leaned forward, t r y i n g to g a z e into tho face she could not.see, y i e l d i n g to the absorbing interest she could not account for. " W h y should y o u h a v e e x p e c t e d a n y t h i n g from m e ? " For answi&r he only saluted, and turning a w a y recommenced h i s beat. Slowly Dorothy returned to her cousin's bungalow, and found Sir Peter and Lady Ruskin at h i g h words. Elvira was t h r o w i n g >off the burden of her undisciplined .temper upon her husband, who> was no m e a n h a n d at retaliation. It made Dorothy sidk to h e a r the cutting bitter things tk'-jy said to each other, and so she turned from t h e m , this ill-matched loveless c o u p l e and went to h e r room. But D o r o t h y was curiously h a u n t e d by the m e m o r y of that sentry. W h a t was the powerful s t r a n g e interest that this private soldier had inspired in her? She could not tell; but the more she proudly fought a g a i n s t it the stronger it grew, and w h e n the cool of the e v e n i n g came she p e r s u a d e d one of he:- jfficer friends to take her round the barracks. T h e m e n w e r e all sitting l o u n g i n g about in the yard and veranda, and Dorothy scanned each bronze:1 face with e a g e r quick glance; but tho man she spught w a s not visible, and in disappointment was turrting to de'part, when she e s p i e d one solitary form sitting in a distant corner, and s o m e t h i n g in the h i g h t and grace of t h e figure made h e r turn impetuously toward it. Her escort was just talking to a b r o t h - er officer. Dorothy crossed the veranda w i t h h e r easy quick step, a tail w h i t e figuro in her w h i t e embroidered robe, w i t h her dark soft hair and wonderful e y e s , and stood before i h e soldier. He saluted, theii bent over his. w o r k again; he w a s c h a s i n g in silver, a n d a model, an e x q u i s i t e littlcjjfase, in native work, stood ©n tho b m c h b e s i d e him. * " W h a t a l o v e l y little thing!" D o r o - thy observed, t a k i n g it up. "Is it for sale?" She spoke more from e m b a r - rassment than a n y t h i n g else: but s h e was more embarrassed w h e n the s o l - dier said i m p u l s i v e l y : "Do y o u like it? T h e n would y o u do m e the honor of accepting it, m a d a m ? " His tone was courteous and g e n t l e - manly, but s o e x a c t l y that of a n e q u a l that sudden h a u t e u r came to D o r o t h y . In spite of her s w e e t n e s s s h e w a s proud, a l m o s t *w proud as Lady R u s - kin herself. "Of course I could not d r e a m " she began coldly, and a h a u g h t y little elerfttioo of. t h e head completod tho sentence. T h e soldier bowed a s proud a bow as D o r o t h y herself could h a v e g i v e n , a n d w e n t c a l m l y o n with his w o r k ; but t h e g i r l saw the deep dusky color rise in the b o w e d face, and suddenly rem e m b e r i n g the debt she o w e d to thlB man, s h e could not bear t o hurt his feelings. "I m e a n that y o u have already today laid m e under sufficient o b l i g a - t i o n , " s h e said softly. "I c o u l d not d r e a m of increasing it." T h e well-cut lips \curved w i t h a bitter smile. T h e man merely bowed a g a i n for reply. Dorothy lingered, feeling for, perh a p s t h e first time in her life awkward and shy. 4'I h a v e brought y o u a little bottle of this lotion," s h e said, d r a w i n g it from h e r pocket. "If I were you I should bathe your hand frequently with i t — w i l l y o u ? " T h e n she just touched the marked hand with h e r own soft little white fingers. "Oh, I a m sorry about t h i s . " " Y o u are certainly not responsible for it," he said; and for one brief instant h e lifted smile and g l a n c e to Dorothy's face. " "For the rest I think I a m grateful for this m a r k . " H e spoke slowly and curiously, g a z i n g down on his hand the while. "It h a s t h o r o u g h l y t a u g h t me a lesson I was too slow to learn." 4 'What lesson?" Dorothy asked, her heart beating, her interest increasing. " T h e lesson of contentment with t h i n g s as they are. m a d a m e . " 4 'You are content to h a v e received this b l o w ?

T h e m o s t economical way to milk h, cow, all t h i n g s considered, is to milk the t w o forj teats, l e a v i n g otf with a pretty full stream, and then milk the hind ones to a short stream, and, returning to the fore ones, milk them to t h e same condition, not t o u c h i n g the hind ones again. T h i s will leave the teats empty, and the bags too. It is a false notion that t u g g i n g away at the teats stimulates a cow to g i v e more milk, but on the contrary, e m p t y i n g tho b a g F.S soon as possible yields more; then the cow can h a v e the e x - tra time to eat, which is a better stimulus than either. A slow milker is never tolerated in the dairy districts, and a "stripper" is an injury anywhere. T h e sooner the cow is milked, and all the o r g a n s connected with feeding, digestion and secretion are left in their natural condition, the bettei* iiiri for the cow.

The thousands of men who are crowoed out. of the Uklanoma country are bound to obtain homes, t*nd a well organized movement hu» been aianed to ublum possession or tne Cherokee strip. The occupation 01 the Cherokee strip ban begun along ihe whole*line. A much murder nut to cracu than any of tne Oklahoma booms is now preaeuteu to tho government. Tne Cherokee strip which 1» now in process of being gobbled comprises neariy eight million acre;, being tnus four times a» large a* Oklahoma und it far tiancends U;e U u e r in beauty and fertility, i h e exeitement in Arkunsaa City over the prospective luil eeizure of the strip is intense. J. ne crowcU of fugitives from tue 1 amine, thirst, frost and heat of Guthrie are swelling as each train on the au but paralyzed railroad comes m. The fiercest resentment is breathed against the government lor the outrageously unfair manner in which the country was lurown open. The whole federal machiu ery lrom the Pretudent down to deputy is passionately denounced. The CL6.oK.ees are aroused to the situation. Patten, tne chairman of their land commission, passed through Arkansas City on his way to Washington to urgently protest against the invasion that be regarded as iueviuble. Fatten said that the Chetokee nation was unconditionally opposed to parting witn the binp. The present proposition of *1.2o an acre was no inducement. Koomers retreat north by wagon from Oklahoma, it may he believed that hundreds ox the returning pilgrims are bearing northward with piuns iaid lor location on the strip and that many are camping this side of Salt Por* upon what tLey will claim lor their homes. The soldiery assigned to patrol the Cherokee outlet under Capt. Jack Hayes have not yet returned from the south border, where they accompanied the main body of boomers bound for Oklahoma.' Hayes' command, however, is expected in Camp Price, near Arkansas City, at any hour. It will be the duty of the soldiers to clear the strip <.nd turmoil is bound to ensue. The people, except for their present excitement, seem disposed to be law-abiding. A conservative opinion is that while they will claim the land in the strip LS redress for wrongs suffered in Oklahoma they will not offer organized armed resistance. There is no doubt that a secret organizat. on is in existence, which numbers in its membership many prominent and influential men, which is heartily in favor of colonizing in the strip with a view to hastening the opening of the Cherokee lands to settlement. The members say that if people were allowed to live in Oklahoma until the President s proclamation was issued they have the right to do the same thing in the strip and they propose to do so. As illustrating the ingratitude of a republic it may be mentioned that contests are already hied against the claim of Capt. Couch, the old boomer leader, on the curious ground that he disqualibed himself from making an entry by entering the ter riiory years ago on boomer expeditions. Gen. James B. Weaver of Iowa, one of the most persistent of the openingof Oklahoma in congress, has ulso had his cliiim contested and has .been accused of attempting to take the people by the throat. TLi9 oldtime boomer leaders have not fared well. Any number of Payne s men can be found now lying around Purcell who have been outridden and out run by men who have taken the fruit of their years of sacrifice. Newspaper Criiktan. It is a privilege every ne serve* to itself tocrieise,adversely u bet, for the public's benefit, aaytitUg la which the public is deeply interested. It is the custom of Jl. H. Warner & Co., Proprietors of the renowned Kidney and aver Cure, better known as "Warner's Safe Cure," to flood the country, and especially the postrofflces, with medical pamphlets. The writer has taken the liberty to examine one of these marvellous little books and finds food for cr iticism, but before indulging in it, will give our readers some quotations' therefrom, from the highest medical authorities, which we believe worthy of. consideration. Under the head of "No Distinctive Symptoms Apparent," we find: First—More adults are carried off in this country by chronic kidney disease than by any other one malady except consumption. —Thompson. Second—Deaths from such diseases are increasing at the rate of :250 per cent a decade.—Edwards. Third.—Bright's disease has no symptom's of its own, and may long exist without the knowledge of the patient or practitioner, as no pain will be felt in the kidneys otr their vicinity.— Koberta. the last / T ourth.— In the fatal cases—and most fl cases have hitherto been fatal—tbe symptoms of diseased kidneys will first appear in extremely different organs of the body as stated above.—Thompson. Fifth—Only when the disease has reached its final and fatal stages may the usual symptoms of albumen and tube casts appear in the water, and will great pain rack the diseased organs.—Thompson. Sixth -Bright s Disease, which usually has three stages of developement, is a universal disease in England and America. —Koberts and Edwards. Thompson is authority for saying that more adults are carried off in this country by kidney disease than any other malady except consumption. Under Warner's "Safe Cure" article on Consumption, we find a paragraph claming to be a quotation from a publication issued by Brompton Hospital for Consumptives, London. England, which states that 52 per cent of the patients of that institution have unsuspected kidney disorder. Dr. Herman Brehmer, an eminent German authority, also says that Consumption is always due to deficient nutrition of the lungs, because of bad blood. Medical science can no longer dispute the fact that the kidneys are t i e principal blood purifying organs of the human system, and if they are dise sed and thus fail to expel the uric acid poison or the waste matter of the blood, as the blood passes through these two great organs, the 'kSafe Cure'' claim is correct, and the reasoning of its proprietor holds good. There is no doubt but that iu too many instances the medical fraternity doctor for symptoms, instead of str.king at the root of the disease, and that under this form of treatment m; ny patients die. We cannot, however, see the necessity of continually flooding the country with these advertising medical boolts, when their story once well told is enough for the time being. People as a rule, now a-days, go to their newspaper for information, and we believe RUCJ truths as We have instanced could, be proclaimed therein more advantageously to the public and much more benencialiy to the proprietors.

M u n c h a u s e n Outdone. Experiments here, says a Newport, (Ky.) dispatch to the New York Sun, have resulted in an extraordinary discovery, if the statements-made by those interested are correct. The discovery is that aluminum, which now eost3 $20,000 a ton and is produced only in France, can be obtaiueil anywhere by a most simple process and at less than one-hundredth part of the present expense. Tite importance <;f ihis discovery can be judged when it is recollected" that aluminum is the most generally diffused metal on earth, and has all the beauty of silver, besides being nontarnishing, non-corrosive, more lasting than .silver, wit!; only one-fourth its weight. In addition alniniuuitW-alloyed one-tenth of one per eent. with iron or steel increases the lue.nou'eneous and tensile siivng!!) of tin* metal nearly halt', while t»,r eleeiro-platinu' purposes aluminum is'supcrior to either gold or silver.

Suddenly a noise was heard and an enormous eagle, swooping down from the cerulean sky, seized the babe with beak and claws and began to soar once more toward the sun, when the distracted father, rushing madly, into his hut, took up a gun. Without a moment's hesitation the man pointed Ids weapon at the cruel bird and fired. The eagle dropped earthward as dead as a door nail and its slayer now achieved another feat Which would have won him any amount of applauso at Lord's.

On Tuesday morning last the sad news reacted the ears of our citizens that Charles A. Cordley had died at his home four miles east of this village at an early hour that morning of yellow atrophy of the liver. Although he had been ailing tor soma time, no fear of his severe illness was entertained until a few days before his demise; but it was then too Ints, the disease had gained good headway and at last succeeded in doing its mission. Mr. Cordley was a son of James and Ann Cordley, and'was born June 9, 1839, at the old homestead wbere he lived and died. August 29, 1861,. he was married to Miss Esther Hicks, who survives him. One son and two daughters were born to the deceased and wife—Bert C, Hattie (wife of Herman H.

The funeral services will be held at the residence to-day (Thursday) at one p. m. and the remains will be laid to rest in the Hamburg cemetery, threo miles, east of this place. Rev. O. B. Thurston will officiate. HE 18 FOUND GUILTY I "We find R. Irving Latimer guilty* *.o f Murder In the Firtst JJegreo,'' was tho verdict rendered by th+* jury last Monday in the famoua L&tiwttr trial at Jackson. We clip tbe foliowing from the Detroit Tribune of Mar 6th. Mrs. Mary Latimer of Jackson was discovered late on th« morning of Friday, Jan. 25, lying dead upon the floor of her bedroom. Two bullet wounds in Mrs, Latimer's head gave unmistakable evidence that she had been murdered. The body wasoovered with blood, as was also the bed, floor and window sill. The first shot had evidently been fired while Mrs. Latimer was asleep, the second while she was crawling to the window to call for help. The crime has never been paralleled in brutality in this state except by the crouch murders. Suspicion at once rested upon R^ Irving Latimer, the murdered woman's son, who went to Detroit the evening previous. On returning to Jackson young. Latimer was arrested charged with tho murder. His coolness was phenomenal. Details of the murder did not interest him at all. He swore he remained in Detroit all night. Later he was identified by trainmen, who testified that he left Detroit for Jackscn, the evening before. the murder, and returned, to Detroit in the earlv morning after it. A Detroit hotel clerk saw him leave the hotel in the evening partly disguised, and a chambermaid said he did not occupy his bed, although Latimer asserted that he did. Latimer utterly failed to account for the time he alleged he spent in Detroit. As far as time was concerned Latimer had ample apportunity to commit the crime and return to Detroit. By leaving Detroit at 10:15 Thursday night he would reach Jackson at 1:15 a. m., and haye two hours in Jackson, returning on the 5;15 tra;n. When Latimer was arrested not only were blood spots found on bis clothing, but the lining of bis shoes wai discolored by a dark red fluid which was pronounced blood. Latimer's father died on Oct. 21, 1887, under suspicious circumstances. Latimer was Lenatited by his death. Latimer's interest in his mother's death is plain, as she was possessed of considerable property, which be would inherit. Latin\er was much i# need of money, and was already heavily in, debt to his mother. A note made by Latimer to his mother for §4500 was found among hor effects, overdue, and with interest unpaid. Latimer was arraigned Feb. 6, but orTtnotion of his attorneys the case was put over Until the April term of court. Latimer's coolness, and indifference during all this timj has been a matter of unceasing comment. He has never, as far as known, expressed regret at his mother's horrible murder, or doubt of his own ultimate acquittal. He at all times appears smiling and happy, and is in ?plend'd physical condition. The case was unexpectedly called in the cireait court on Monday, April 15, and the time until the afternoon of Tuesday, April 23, was spent in securing' a competent jury. The case was ended last night after a hotly contested trial of 18 days in a verdict of guilty. Sen-' tence has been detered by the Judge until Saturday next. • m The following are the names of pupils belonging to the Intermediate Department who were not absent during the month of school closing May 3.

On April &>, 17S», (Jen. Washington arrived in New York, after a journey of six days fron*. Washington. President Harrison, so great is the contrast in means of transportation wrought by a century, arrived at 7 :i» a. m , having covered the same distance surrounded by the ease and comfort and elepmce of a palace car, within six hours. Thol.no of march followed as nearly as possible the historic route taken by Gen. Washington K)J years ago. The parade and procession was the most imposing scene ever witnessed in New York. Nearly SO.COi) men were in line. The fifth divisi. n, -called the depiirtment of agriculture, was striking tnd picturesque. This was the granger division. There were numerous floats representing farmers 100 years ago an** to-day. Men in old-time costumes, carried scythes and sickles, boys were going to mill With bags of grain, and groups of farmers had old fashioned wooden mould-board plows, cradles, flails, etc. New York was literally clothed in flays and bunting, and on all sides were evidences of a lavish expenditure of money in decorations. Of the buildings below the city hull the most noticeable were those immediately opposite the Equitable building, the Drexel-Morgan building. tJie custom house, the various exchanges and the sub-treasury building. The ei£ut aaassive columns in front cf the latter building were entwined with flags, and from each column a United States shield was displayed. The stand on which the exercises took, place was tastefully decorated. The decorations on Trinity church were mainly about the entrances, and consisted of ?. simple but beautiful draping of large flag.*. From a window in the steeple protruded a pole on which was sus^-ende! a large flag. The decorations on tnc city halt were cf a most artistic nature. A huge rosette, having for a center the escutcheon of the United States, formed a top-piece. Each window in the front had a base consisting of a half rosette of flats and a coat of arms of some foreign country, and above thera floated small colonial flag3. In the spaces between the windows appeared the arms of the state?. The root was edged with crimped bunting. On the Broadway side of the building the windows were draped as in the front, at:d two i,i&uien-*e flags were spread to their fullest extent across the top. From every window (n the postofHtfO building floated a flag, aud buntin?' /.-1 Btreameis appeared in profusion. TlrtJ decorations on the Equitable buildup consisted simply of a large rosette plaj.:<i at the top of the building, and 13 streamUVJ about MO foot long, which were hung froai the rosette to the sides of the building and caught in a loop by ropes of red, white and blue. The corridor of tho building where *iie President made his entrance had no decorations, but the rooL:s of the lawyer1 club, where ho was tendered a luncheon, there waB a slight digression from the rul,-. Tho table was lighted by twelve electric lights and the center was covered with a mass of beautiful flowers. Up town the hotels and buildings were all in holiday attire. The arches placed at differenwpoinls along the line of the parade were four in number. First in point of beauty was the one situated at the junction of Broadway, Fifth avenue and Twentythird Slreet. It is 77 feet high *nd spans 100 feetof the roadway. Paintings of great men of the country were hung above the arches and on top. Above the keystone was a statue of Washington on horseback, flanked on either side by a large gilt eagle. Each turret had a spiro in each corner, eight spires in all, and eai h spire is 3» feet high. In the pitches of columns were placed statue of soldiers and ealors in the costume of 100 years ago. The arch at Fifth avenue tnd Twenty-sixth street had three spans and was 700 feet wide. It was the same hight as the other arch, and was decorated in somewhat the same manner. At Fifth avenue and Washington squares •was an arch made to represent stone, H2 feet high, and spanning 40 feet. Laurel wreaths, flowers and bunting formed the decoration. One of the roost elaborate pieces of street decorattng_in the city was the merchants' arch, near the foot of Wall street. The *rch)wos from the curbs and spanned the street, the center, representing the keystone, being 40 leet above the pavement, in / i t s rirapinjpsilk was as freely used as bunt- )JnjrTancLtne eagles, shields, portraits, flags and streamers nnd draperies of national colors were arranged in accordance with designs prep^sd by some of the most noted decorators xu tho world. At an early hour in the morning the various vessels that had been assigned to places in the grand naval parade began taking their positions and making preparations to receive the president. The fleet comprised floating craft of every fcnagin able description, the men-of-war, revenue boats, yachts, sailing vessels, ocean steamers being unexcelled in the brilliancy and extent of their decorations, and when all was ready the reception committee started to meet the presidential party at Elizabeth port The president and party embarked on board the Dispatch at Eluabethport, nnd the vessel, accompanied by the steamer Sirius carrying other guests and officials of the presidential party, and the Ernst us Wiman with members of the press, governors, commissioners of states, etc.. steamed through the Kill von Kill to the upper bay. As she passed Port Richmond, the tug Nina, which had returned to that point, fired a gun, which was repeated from the Chicago, as a signal for the fleet to henve anchors short and prepare to get under way. When the Dispatch was opposite the line of ihe tenth squadron of merchant marine lying off Staten Island Commodore Moran moved his flagship, J. A. Dutnont from her temporary station at the left of the line out in tho stream and accompanied the Dispatch as far as the right of line, where he took position. av the fame time he dipped bis colon and kls entire iqusdron did to* same, and blew steam whistles for half a minute As the nresident's boat turned north into the mala channel and reached the left of line of squadron 9, that squadron and squadron 4 on the east side went through the same ceremony, as did all the squadrons in tarn by pairs. There was no other blowing steam whistles until the Dispatch came abreast of the Chicago, when the whistles of the entire fleet were blown in unison for halt a minute. When the Dispatch ostne abreast of the rear of the yacht division, the revenue cutters nnd such of the yachts as carried guns began a saluto of 21 guns. Had as the President's ship passed, the officers and crew of each vessel paraded the deck and saluted by uncovering. When the Dispatch reached tho rear of the naval division the yards of all the vessels were manned, and each ship fired a salute of 2l guns. As the Dispatch passed each vessel the officers and crew uncovered, the marine guards and the sentries presented arms, and the bands played the national air. The triumphal passage sf the Dispatch between the parallel line of steamers occupied about an hour. At the last, a gun from the Chicago, the naval, the revecue, and tho yacht division* got under way and steamed up the bay and North river at a speed of six knots an hour, preserving the same formation and distance as when at anchor. The merchant marine, in two great divisions of five squadrons each, followed the Dispatch up the East river. The merchant marine column w a s eight miles long. After rounding the stake-boat themerchunt marine returned dowu the East river around the battery »md up the east side of the North river. They rounded the column of naval and revenue vessels which had meantime come to anchor below Fifty- first Btreet. Tho steam yachts having dispersed at a signal fjom the U. S. steamer Chicago before the naval and revenue vessels reached their anchorage, came down the ea*t side of the river past the vice admiral's flagship off Governor s island and dispersed. On the arrival of tho Dispatch in tho East river, off the foot of Wall street, a barge, manned by a crew of shipmasters from tho marine society of the port of N e w York, with Capt Ambrose IMIOW, president of that society, as coxswain, put out to meet her and row the President ashore. The crew of the barcre that rowed President Washington from Elizabethport to the foot of Wall street r e r e members of the same society. While the President was being taken from the Dispatch into the barge, the Erastus Wimain and the Sirius landed their passengers at the foot of Wall street Then came the Presidential barge, manned by a sturdy crew of grizzl.v-hairod men, many of whom had not Dulled an oar in years, but whose strong, etfcady stroke attested that the proficiency they had attained a generation ago had rot been lost by theintej vwing years of 4TeL>r;./!g on their oars." P'wv ltf, where the president landed, was one of most brilliaatly decorated spo s in thfe city. The loof was one fluttering maW of flags and streamers, and the interior, usually so somber, was brilliant with alt the colors of the rainbow. To the left of the pier was attached, the float at which the boat containing the presidential party emptied its distinguished passengers. The float was handsomely carpeted and tho stairs leading to the pier were covered with a canopy of bunting. Streamers were strung across the river from Wail street to Pine street. The president was received ns he stepped ashore by Gov. Hill, Mayor Grant, Hamilton Fish, president of the centennial committee, and Win. D. Hamilton, chairman of tho committee on states. After tho President and party had lunched and rested, a reception was given at the Lawyers' Club by the Committee on states, and in the evening the presidential party was given a dinner at the residence of SU'.yresant Fish. The oxercises of the day were fittingly closed with the inauguration ball which took place at the Metropolitan opera hous*e, at which the President and party were present. In the various churches throughout the city, pursuant with the President * proclamation, special services were held on tho morning of tho i!0th ut the same time that the worshippers at St. Paul's were e( m memorating the religious service which preceded Washington's inauguration, April 30, li8',i. At about eU'ht o'clock carriages, provided by the committee on states, drew up in front of the Fifth avenue hotel. A few minutes later, Chief Justice Fuller, tha members of the eab!n3t and the invited guests entered the carriages and were driven to No. Sfl Fifth avenue, the resi dence of Vice President Morton, whose guest the President is. Here the President and Vice President were escorted by the committee to their carriage, and then, preceded by a platoon of mounted police, the procession started for St. Paul's chapel. Before it reached the chapel the crowd had increased to such proportions that it was with great difficulty t h \ t the )>olice could keo.T> a way clear for the carriages. At a little before nine nearly every one who was fortunate enough to possess one of the precious lavender tickets necessary for admission had entered the historic old church, and was awaiting the President's arrival. St. Paul's clock had but just tolled the hour of nine when the presidential party made its appearance. The committee of the vestry of Trinity church met President Harrison and escorted him to the west porch of the chapel, where the rectory and full vestry of St. Paul's received him. The President was then escorted to the Washington pew on the north side of the chapel, which he and his cabinet occupied, the rest of the party boiog given seats near by. Fully 1,300 persons were present. Prof Leo Koher began the "processional "Old Hundred." The choir sang the grand old hymn as it has rarely been sang before. After the processional the Lord s prayer was repe.ited by the clergy and people, followed by the usual versicles. The special prayer of thanksgiving used at St. P a u l s and in all the Episcopal churches throughout the country, was then s ml. Two other special prayers were used, one asking a blessing upon President Harrison, and the other for the welfure of the country. After the prayers, the Rt. Rev. "Henry C. Potter of New York delivered his address. The Eervice concluded with the recev sional hymn. The presidential party was then escorted by the vestry to the west porch, where the President was received by the centennial literary committee. The party then proceeded to the sub treoaury building at the corner of VV**ll and Nassau streets, where the ol 1 federal buirim* stood in which Washington took the oath of oSce in 1789. Here the l.terary exercisej were held. In front of the platform of the sub-treasury building where the literary exercises j connected with the centennial celebration ' took place, a sea of heads greeted the eye, J and all about the spot, from Broadway to William street, eager thronging humanity I was pae'eea. It was next to impossible for i one to make his w.iy through the crowd that was struggling for places' uf vantage near the platform. Whllo the serricet in iJt Paul's were being held the Twenty-seoond regiment band, under the leadership of Patrick 8 . Gilmore, Kve a concert at the sub-treasury. The nd began the program at about 9 o'clock and continued until the literary exercises began. The President and hie party wore due at 10 o'clock, but it was a little later when they arrived. The literary committee escorted the President from St. Paul's down Broadway to Wall street to the sub-treasury. As the President's carriage passed along the crowded thoroughfare, the waiting multitude* on the sidewalks ohtm-ed again and again until his way aeemed to he a triumphal processiou greeted with one prolonged round of cheers. The President's reception at the sub treasury wui mo it enthusiastic. As soon us Gilmore caught sight of the Presidents carriage he lifted his baton and the full -2nd bund played "Hail to the Chief." During the playing of this the President, alighted and was escorted to his seat on the platform. The members of his cabinet grouped themselves about him, and the other invited guests were seated near. As boon as all wero arranged and quiet w a s gained, Elbridge T. Gerry, chairman of the committee on literary exerci.es, opened the proceedings. Rev. Dr. Storrs made tho prayer, und the poem of Johu Greenkaf Whittier followed. After the applause that greeted the reading of the poem had eeasec, the Hou. Chauucey M. Depew stepped forward to deliver the oration ho hud written for the occasion. Mr. Depew's appearance was the signal for a generous burst of applause, and it wus some minutes before be could begin. He spoke in a clear, loud voice, aud could be heard by a large port on of the audience. Mr. Depew s or.itiou was scholarly, elaborate and dignified. Ho opened with a statement of l^e situation 100 years ago, as follows: We celebrate to-day the centennary of our nationality. One hundred years ago the United States began their exisieo.ee. The powers of government were assumed by the people of the republic, and they become the sole source of authority, The Ktlemn ceremonial of the first inauguration, the reverent oath cf Washington, the acclaim of the multitude greeting their president, marked the moBt unique event of moiern times in the development of free institutions. The occusion was not an accident, but a result. It was the culmination of the working out by mighty forces through many centuries of the problem of self-government. It was not tho triumph of a system, the application of a theory, or the reduction to practice of the abstractions of philosophy. The lime, tho country, the he red it v und environment of the peoplo.the^ folly of its enemies, and the noble courage of ita friends, gave td*4iberty after ages of defeat, of trial, of experiment, of partial success and substantial gain?, this immortal vic'ory. Henceforth it had a refugj and recruiting station. The oppressed found free homes in this favoi'ed land, and invisible armies marched from it by mail and telegraph, by speech and song, by precept and exureiplo, to regenerate the world. Puritans in New England, Dutchmen in New York, Catholics in Maryland, Hugue uots in 5-outh Carolina had left the fire of persecution and wero wedded to religious liberty. They had beeu purified in tho furnace, and in high debate and on blood}' battle fields had learned to sacrifice all material interests and to peril their lives for human rights. The principle i of const it u tional government had been impressed vo ;;; them by hundreds of years of struggi'.\ iind for each principle they could point to tho (,'rave of an ancestor whose death attest J d the ferocity-of the flfrht and the value of the concessions wrung fre.m the arbitray power. They knew the limitations of authority, they could pledge their lives and fortunes to resist encroachments upon their rights, but it required the lesson of Indian massacres, the invasion of the armies of France and Ciitiada, the tyranny of the British crown, the seven years' war of the revolution, and the five years'of chaos of the confederation to evolve the idea, upon which rest the power and permuncy of the republic, that liberty and union are one and inseparable. Mr. Depew then related the genesis of the fathers of the revolution, sons of men who had sprung from every persecution in Europe; t o d how bravely they signed a document that was to be a death warrant or a diploma of immortality. The central idea of the declaration of independence was t i e sovereignty of the people. Thomas Jefferson most clearly grasped possibilities of the idea. He constructed his system on the equality of all men teforc the law. In his passionate love of liberty ho became intensely jealous of authority. He destroyed the substance of royal prerogative, but never emerged from its shadow. He would have the states as guardians of popular rights, and tho barriers against centralization, and ho saw in the growing power of the nation ever increasing en croachments upon the rights of the peopie. For the FUCCCSS of tho pure democracy which must precede pre-idents and cabinets and congresses, it was perhaps providential that its apostle never believed a great people could grant and still retain, could give and at will reclaim, could dele gate and yet firmly hold the authority which ultimately created the power of their republic and enlarged the scjpe of their own liberty. The union of the states was not a government but a ghost. I h e states elected dele gntei to congress without regard to population. All the states had un equal voice. It required but nine states to pass a measure and but live to block tho government. Congress had no powers of sovereignty. It might call on the states, but could not in force its demand". Each state levied dis criminating duties against the others, and might tax inter state commerce. Tho fathers of the republic saw those fatal weaknesses and finally achieved their most significant triumph, that which secured the assent of the states to the limitation of their boundaries, to the grant of the wilderness beyend them to the gener.d government and to the insertion in the ordinance erecting the Northwest territories of the immortal proviso prohibiting "slavery or involuntary servitude" wi&in all that broad domain. The states carved out of this splendid concession were not sovereignties which had successfully rebelled, but they were the children of the union, born of the covenant and thrilled with its life ond liberty. They became the bulwarks of nationality and the buttresses of freedom. Their preponder. ting strength first checked and then broke tne slove power, their fervid loyalty halted nnd held at bay the spirit of state rights and secession for generations; and when the cr'sis came it was with their overwhelming assistance that the nation killed nnd buried its enemy. The corner stone of the edifice wh ise centenary wo are celebrating was the ordinance of ITH'X It was constructed by the feeblest of congresses, but few enactments in ancient or modern time.-* had more farreaching and beneficent influence. It is one of the sublimest paradoxes of history, that this weak con fed ration of state *shou id have welded the chain, against which, after ^4 years of fretful efforts f >r release, its own spirit frantically dashed nnd died. Thence Mr. Depew sketched the extension of federal power s the building of the constitaUom b y Washington, Franklin, Elsworth. Gouvermeur and Robert Morris, the Pinckneys, Hamilton nnd Madison, with no precedent to guide them, nnd experiences wblch lead some to lead to absolute oantralUation as the only refuge from anarchy, and others to cling to the sovereignty of the states as a remedy against despotism, they erected their govecatnent on the eternal foundations of the power of the people. Jefferson w a s the Inspiration of independence, Hamilton was tUe incarnation of the constitution. Washington became president He alone could be trusted with so much power. The inauguration was the greatest triumph ruler had ever received. The memories and forebodings awakened in him were thrilling and fearful alike, but the government w a s begun in dear earnest, he selected the best ud vise i s obtainable, the central federation was established, parties crystalized and passions subsided. But with tho first attempt to exercise national power began the duel to the death between si ate sovereignty claiming the right to nullify federal laws or secede from the union, and tho power of the republic to command the resources of the couutry, to enforce its authority aud protect its life. It was the beginning of the 00- years war for the constitution and the nation. It seared consciences, degraded politics, destroyed parties, ruined statesmen, and retarded tho advance und development of the country; it sacrificed hundreds of thousands of precious lives, and squandered thousands of millions of money; it desolated the fairest portion of the land und carried mourning into every home north aud south; but it ended at Appomattox in the absolute triumph of the republic. Mr. Depew then sketched the national growth of the governroovt, tho effects of war and the present status of tho nation, concluding us follows: Tho spirit of Washington fills the executive office. Presidents may not rise to the full measure of his greatness, but they must not fall below his standard of public duty and obligation. His life and character conscientiously studied and thoroughly understood by coming generations, will be for them a liberal education for private life and public station, for citizenship and patriotism —for love and devotion to union and liberty. With their inspiring past and splendid present, the people of these United States, heirs of a hundred years, marvelously rich in all which adds to the glory and greatness of a nation, with an abiding trust in the stability nnd elasticity iu tbeir constitution, and an abounding faith in themselves, hall the coming century with hope and joy. Then came President Harrison's address, ^amidst wild cheering. He Raid it was imposRibio to make an address on this occassior., as Depew's oration made further sp-2Qf'h superfluous und difficult. As to Washington, the President said, "He was the incarnation of duty." Calls^er Vice President Morton brought only his bowB. Archbishop Corrigan pronounced the benediction. I h e military parade which followed the literary exercises waa unparalleled in splendor, fully 52,000 soldiers marching in the ranks. The hea4 ot the line began to move about ono o clock and the rear of the column did not reach its destination and disband until seven o'clock. The buuquet iu tho evening was the crowning glory ot the day. Addresses wero mado by Ex-President Cleveland, Chief Justice Fuller, Gov. Lee of Virginia, GfV. Hill of N o v York, Gen. Sheridan, Ex-President Hayes, and other distinguished gentlemen. Tha last event iu the series ct centennial ccle'uiations to commemorate the inauguration of Washington was the civic parade on May 1st, designed to illustrate the industrial progress of the country during its century of uational life. The splendid naval and military demonstration of the past two days, surpassing anything of the kind ever witnessed in the new world, seemed not to have s:itinted the appetite of the people for sight seeing. From an eavly hour in the morning crowds began to gamier at all the places along tho line of mn'vh from which a view of the parade could be had, and by eight o'clock the sidewalks all a'ong the route wero well friuged with the walking throng. The stands soon beeun to fill 'up with ticket* holders,-and the open spaces in tho vicinity of the President's reviewing stand at Madison square were especially crowded. Be-, fore tho hour arrived for the parade to move, every available site had been preempted all along the line of march, and the windows nnd doors, as well ns the sidewalks, wero well filled with spectators. The parade was under tho management of Gen. Daniel Butterfield as chief marshal, und the smoothness with which the program was carried out showed the excellent result of his careful attention to details during the elaborate preparations which he has been making for weeks. The president was escorted from the residence of Vice-President Morton to the reviewing stand at Madison square, which he reached a few mini.tes after 9 o'clock. The parade started i.t 8 ;•.'() a. m. from Fifth avenue and Fifty seventh street, tho column pf?r,sing down tho avenue. As its head reached Twenty seventh street. Mayor Grant, with the representative delegates from the civil, industrial and commercial societies und organizations of N e w York who had been stationed in that vicinity awaiting its approach, moved and took the lead until the president's reviewing stand Was reached. The mayor bore an address, which, on reaching the stand, he formally presented to the president, amid great applause from the multitude and the booming of a hundred guns salute from the naval vessels anchored in the North river, below Fifty ninth street. The president gracefully signified his acknowledgment of the a Idress, and extended formal greeting to the city representative « who then took the places reserved for them >nthc grand stjnd around the president. The column then proceodiil down the avenue past the great stand, with bands playing and flagB waving in hcoor of the Prosident, who courteously responded to the salutes of the various organizaiions. A continuous cheer from tho ranks, *ith as constant response from the adn#'ring thrones, added excitement to t h e s c e u s a s the procession swept past. First came a detail of mounted police, which swept the street from curb to curb of all stragglers. A battalon of police en foot followed escorting tho chief marshal. Geo.Butterfield. A standard bearer waved aloft the chief-mar-hal's banner, a flag of yellow silk, adorned with the arms of the state and city. The general's mounted staff, distinguished by their yellow sashes, came close behind. On Gen. Buttergeld's staff, representing Michigan, was Gen. Ainger. Next were the chief of organizations of the veteran regiments of New York militia and voluntoers They acted as a escort to Alexander B. Butts, commander-in-chief of the society of veterans of tho regular army and navy of the United States. Then, separated by a drum corps, came 10) veteran regular s>ldicrs and the Twenty- fifth regiment New York volunteer veteran association, surrounding as an escort the first tableau in the parade, which represented the rending of the declaration of independence in the state house yard, Philadelphia, by John Nixon, July 8, 177o. • i, l J . • ! • M • H I * I The next division, led by: urn, contained 400 students college and aOO of the college ef the o l Hew York, escorting a tableau of WnsbinsM ton and his generals, mounted, fhe- life*; like representation of the features. aMi* costumes of Washington.

The division consisting of visiting and local exempt and volunteer firemen's associations represanted a large number of cities and towns throughout tbe easte str.tes, und presented a fine oippea The widely kuown veteran volunteer men, Harry Howard and Michael Ci l e i them, and were themselves amon most notable figures in tbe procession feature of this part of the parade was the old mechanic s bell of tbe eleventh ward.

The old Spanish ideal diplomat of three centuries ago, dark, afl'able, suave, plausable, skilled in fences and restless as a ca^ed eagle, has trone wofully Qui of style. Now we expect diplomates merely to be representatives of social life, to go out to great dinners, and r e t u r n them if possible. Therefore, the first question asked regarding a newly appointed minister to a first-class power is, how rich is he? That question satisfactorily answered, all the rest is smooth sailing, and we feel really only amusement when men like Janiqs Russell Lowell and M r . Phelps come back from E n g l a n d as English as the most exacting Angiomaniac could wish. If it be then t b i t the position is a purely social one in every element, the diplomats' wife is of scarcely less national importance than the diplomat himself. If Secretary Maine and President Harrison had selected the corps abroad with sole regard to the female representation, there could hardly have been a greater success. Mrs. Lincoln, wife of the minister to England, has had a long and brilliant social experience, as the budding daughter of the then Senator Harlan d u r i n g the war indtTmrernnrtf1 ^^1 "1 1 and later as a member of the Cabinet circle, when her husband was Secretary of war. Few women are more genuinely and unconsciously American in every thought and action. Her social statutes is so well defined and her experience so broad that there is no danger that she will be overwhelmed or socially bullied by London society. A grown daughter, a son aged sixteen and a younger d a u g h t e r accompany their parents. Younger than Mrs. Lincoln by many years, is Mrs. Whitelaw Keid, daughter of D 0 . Mills, the millionaire of California creation. She is very attractive in appearance, of the blonde order, above the medium height, mid so notable in dress for subdued colors. Mr. Reici will rent a magnificent hotel.in Paris, and it is safe to say that his own thousands, ably assisted by the Mills millions, will create a re-peri able >risation even at the Creiirh Capital. They will take with Uiein I heir >on i>i seven and daughter, a tot of live years. To the land of Andalusia, where we have sent more gifted l i b r a r y m m than to any other court, Mr. L a l m t r i s accompanied only by his wife, I>fin_g childless. Mrs. Palmer is a native of Maine, and was an heire-s when she met and married Thomas \V. Palmer. While her hu.->band was in tie- Senate. Mrs, Palmer was a notible figure in Washington society and proved herself a very clever society leader as well as a kind and genial personality. T h e wife of Col. >'red Grain, was Ida Marie Honore, at the time of her marriage tbe recognized belle of Chicago. She is a very tine musician and somewhat of a linguist. There are several y o u n g children, including a'daughter born in tbe White House in 187G. I n time of peace, tbe slowest thing know to man is the War Department, not only on account of its red t a r e , but also on account of its desire to be dilatory. It is a striking illustration of this fact t h a t the Army is always having trouble with the Government P r i n t i n g office. When every ol her excuse for delaying reports has been wore threadbare, the officers always fall back upon the time honored charge t h a t it is the fault of the Public Printer. Other Departments are satisfied and their reports appear promptly. After waiting four months it is discovered t h a t the Army Register even when issued has been wrongly indexed, and it will take another month to correct that defact. The work of arranging the Army regulations has occupied the expensive attention of a board of officers for nearly ten years and on the eve that an anxious world breathlessly awaits its poaitive appearance, it is discovered that, "several important errors on the part of tbe printer" will delay the publication. And yet Unpeople wonrier that, the 1'nblic Printers sometimes stray from the narrow paths of virtue and long to j u m p the fence and vigorously toy with the A r m y with an axe.

Sigler'.s d r u ^ store,. the Threshing Machines then in use were almost wholly of tl c class known as the "Endless Apron" style. Then it was that Nichols & Shepard, of Battle Creek, Mich.,invented and began to develop an entirely new and novel style of Grain Thresher and Separator, which they very appropriately named the "Vibcator." It was a revolution inQJlreshing Machines, and from a small beginning of five machines in 1858 they soon reached a product of 1,000 yearly. Their Vibrator drove the " Endless Apron" machine out of mar* ket, and all other makers copied it as closely as they dared. Today all Threshing Machines of any reputation or merit use the principles of the old Vibrator. Nichols & Shepard have continued in the business without change of name, location, or management; and during the past three years have brought out and developed another new Threshing Machine for grain and seeds, as superior to all existing machines as their former was to the 'Endless Apron.' They name this new and improved Thresher P I HltEHSSORTKIENr. ^ ¾ ¾ ' *•/&' V ° - & • •'$«& \ LAMPS., LAMP GOODS CHURNS, VASES, • DISHES IN ALL GRADES AND SHAPES.

Then a .-hallow fcod box should •be placed in front of each calf, and a very small handful! of oats dropped in to this and the calf s attention directed to it, by the feeder. In a c-hort time the calf can be taught to eat oats as soon as the milk has been drunk. This is far better than letting him waste his time trying to swallow his neighbor's ears. Idleness is as bad tor calf as a boy;, We have been feeding a number of calves at the Staion, giving for severa weeks, 15 lbs. of milk in three feeddaily. Later we gave 20 pounds in three feeds. I find as a result of 1"? weeks feeding that in addition to the milk named the valves have consumed on the ayvragc a little over 10 ounceof oats per day for this period. . Ai first they only ate a mere pinch, ami towards the last of the period over a pound per lay. We also are now giving of oil meal pudding a very little 1^-11 day. The growth of the calves is enfrely satisfactory, averaging from one po'ind to one and seven-tenths daily upon tie feed named. Success i>i stock management for most perp'e must begin with success in handling a calf, am: this is too much neglected by many. If any of our readers should happen in Madison, let them call at the Station and see a bunch of calves now being fed as I.lipve indicated, and I think they will admit that good cakes can be raised on the \'eed named.

A series of distressing accidents occurred on the lake front in Chicago on the evening of April 30, just as the festivities of the day were closing, which marred the joyous proceedings of the entire day. A crowd of 100,000 persons were present. Five persons were fatally injured in the crush of people and a score or more received wounds of a serious nature. But few of the names of those injured could bo learned, owing to the fact that the majority of them were cared for by their friends and taken to their homes. The panic was caused by the premature explosion of fireworks used in tho celebration of the inaugural centennial. The same evening a crowd was gathered in Lincoln park. When the last rocket had exploded the people made a rush for every street loading from the south end of the park. The wooden sidewalk at the n o r t h w e s t corner gave way and several hundred persons tell live or six feet. In the scramble to get away women and children were trampled and many painfully injured.

On May 30 the Haymarket monument is to be unveiled, and that the anarchists of Chicago are already preparing forthe eveut is evidenced by the Issuance by some secret printing eatdbjiahment of an inflammatory circular, copies of which have fallen into the hands of the police. One of the circulars was enclosed in an envelope aud sent to Chief Hubbard. Another was found lying on the base of the monument in Haymarket square. I t is believed that many other copies of the circular have been secretly circulated among the anarchists, who An known to bo still loyal to the memory of Spies, Parsons and the rest. The circular reads as follows: "May 4, la86, uud Ncv. 11. i8S7. ''May 4, ISSe! A peaceable people attacked by ISO armed policemen, acting under orders of a well known buUy una ruffian, contrary to the demands of the mayor of the city!

A dispatch from Guthrie, Oklahomu, gives the following account of a battle between cowboys und veterans iu the new territory, said to have occurred one day last week: The tight lasted nearly an hour. The old soldiers arc located on tho Canadian river, near tho southern border. Their lands are very desirable, and a number of cowboys tried to take them from tho settlers. The cowboys were mounted on fleet ponies and rode down on the camp, evidently with the intention of surprising ttiem. The soldiers, however, wen! prepared for them. The cowboys roue down the line yelling and lh'ing revolvers. The old soldiers began to j^et their guns, when the cowboys turned and dashed across tho prairie. A volley from tho soldiers brought down a man aud horsu. Tho rider of tho latter jumped on the back of a companion's pony iind in a minute all the cowboys were o\i t of rauge. Alter this the tight was after the Indian fashion, the horses were used as barricades and over their bucks the cowboys shot and killed six members of the colony. When it was soon that the soldiers were being worsted they drew up inline and the order for an advance was given. The enemy retreated 10 the bushes, aud for half an hour longer the tiring continued, but only one m;vn was wounded and nine killed. At the expiration of this time the cowboys jumpet'r'to the bucks of their horses. :ind dashed madly across tho country, yelling in retreat that they would soon return. AY. H. B A H N I M DEAD. The Well Known Politician a t Kcst. Hon. William II. Barnum, chairman of the national democratic committee, died at Lime Rock, Conn., April ;<0. Wm. H. Harnum wa* for a generation prominent in the democratic politics of the nation. Ho was a native of Connecticut, 72 years of age, aud gained his greatest promniece by the management of Mr. Tildeu s campaign, 13 years auo, and he was, early and late, the closu friend of Mr. Tilden. He served severnl times in congress, whore he was an intense protectionist democrat. S nee the Hancock campaign of 1&0 he had little to do with public movements. Mr. Barnum was a millionaire several times over. He made his money in tho iron trade and had much of it invested in Michigan. He had heavy interests in iron mines in the upjwr peninsula, tho famous Barnum mine in the upper peninsula taking its name from him. and he was one of the organizers of the old Detroit and Lake Superior furnace company in Detroit, which he controlled for many years. Our Naval Strength. The present force of enlisted men in the navy aggregates about 8,.rAK) men. It is the t pinion of Commodore Schley that a force of 15,000, or nearly 7.000 additional, will be required to equip the vessels already authorized by congress. It is more than likely that an effort will bo made to secure some sort of provision for these enlisted men in the n a . y so th&t the government cun command the very bo.it type of manhood for its Bailors. The officers aro already provided for by the retired list. The lu^t congress arranged tho savings bank system so tftnt tho money which was retained from the sailors until they were finally paid off could be deposited with tho paymaster and would d r a w four per cent intereBt. This money is nnn-forfeUable for any cause except desertion. Other steps in behalf of tho men are in consideration. Nations.! Matters Condensed.

B*" HON. M R S . X. P . CHAPTER IV. T h e d t o r m had burst. A h o r r o r no l o n g e r nameless* and dreaded, but •tangible*and surpassing all the wildest ifear of 'the most fearful, was t u r n i n g India's, golden land into one scene of bloodshed and cruelty, t o r t u r e and terror. Too'late now for escape or safety. Lady Ruskin's wayward selfishness had brought its terrible punishment upon not only herself, but her husband and cousin. All- escape was cut off from the little town of B by the hords. of natives who \were besieging it. Fire and death, wounds and sickness, filled each *day with new distress, and the devoted • little band of English thus shut up in their terrible plight could only pray and hope for the deliverance thoy surely trusted would come. Ah, but when? Each day might make it too late. As gold is purified by fire, BO in a time.like this ail that was good in hum a n nature came gradually out. Men performed prodigies of valor and endurance; women displayed wonderful patience and courage. Lady Ruskin had no good in her, and in this scene of trial, for which she had herself to thank, she was a perfect burden of selfish repining and miserable alarm. Dorothy Poauchamp became a h e r o - ine. Quietly and unobtrusively, yet with the unfaltering courage and steadfastness only a grand nature: can show, she came to the front and did v.n ^heroine's or an angel's work. Nothing caraejimiss to her—-tending the sick, succoring~-the wounded, and sympathizing, with tiro-bereaved, encouraging the bra^p; tirelMrs>-4>aiient, capable, with no thought of i«>rf7~a£ul^never a look of fear or repining upon dun. sweet face. Dorothy Ueauchump never failed nor gave in, and the roughest men watched for her coming, and breathed a silent prayer for her sa'ety as she passed in and out, a very angel among them. " W h e r e are you going?'' an abrupt voicestopped Dorothy as she was crossing thei barrack-yard. She iooked up, and a faint tinge of color oame into the lovely white face as she saw the man who hud stopped Ivor—the handsome soldier whose face she had never yet clearly seen. Glad of an instant's rest the girl leaned against the wall as she replied: " I am going round to the outposts as usual, just to give the men tidings i of their friends, and say a prayor for those who like it. Each day 1 miss some faces,"1 her lips quivered. "And will d o , " the man replied briefly. " T h o fire is heavy on the inorth side to-dav — terribly heavv. You.mustnot go, Miss Heauchamp." She shook her head with a faint sad smile. v l must go," she said faintly. " T h e imen look for my coming: I promised them. And Share's wife is dead, and left him a message. 1 must give it toiday or it may be too lale. " " I s your own life of no account?" t h e soldier asked, half angrily—half with.a tenderness in his accents which •colored the girl's face again. "J have atched you day by day doing what no a m o n g ns could do. You arc doon angel's work, but it will kill vauraelf if it goes on t h u s . " •••'I ,am not afraid," she >only said softly.; " W e can but do out utmost, and trust to a Higher Power for aid." He looked at the exquisite, frail, brave &>rin, at tbe sweet grave face; t h e soft .dark hair was all cut o4T, and clustered, damp with the terrible heat, in silky little rings around the ibnoad brow, on which the toluo veins showed too clearly; tho once pretty white frock, now torn and #oiled with matiy 4fcrt. stains, h»ng loosely upon the girl- "~gure. e little hands were rortgfasjed liy eir unaccustomed toil, tout the glorious eyes were ntoro lovely than (Jver, 4eop and scriou*. calm and swoot. Out from them looked the brave woman's soul within, and the soldier knew t h a t thi« weak young girl might die beneath h e r avlf-imposod task—:th, tho likelihood of that was all too apparent!— but would never neglect one particle of it. Ha turned aside for :v moment to bide some amotion be* did not wish h e r to t e e ; then ho said quietly: "If yoa will gos let me accompany you. I may be some protection, and I can spare the time just now." He was t a k i n g it from the two Utile hours of sleep which wero all t h a t ooufcd be allotted to the over-worked scanty garrison. But Dorothy did not know that. Side by side the soldier and the maiden were crossing the yard, when they ran against one of t h e officers, Major Harvey, who looked wxcitedaad flushed. He just bowed %9 Dorothy, t h e n turned hastily to a or companion. "Smith, I want a man to <do a hero'8 work. Wo can't hold out much longer at this rate. T h e i r numbers have increased. W e have one chance and only one. If Bomeone oould get across to K and tell of our plight, they might send us reinforcement*, and savo us. Their strength is just augmented. Ta-niorrow will be too late. But who dare take th« message and the risk of such a journey?" "Send mer, sir," t h e soldier said quietly and without a moment's hesitation, as if it were a message into the mess-room h e proposed taking instead of a ride for miles across the country insested by the rebels, and some portions of it swept by their guns. The Major hesitated and looked at him. "You will do It, Smith, if a man can do it, I believe. You can ride over anything^Uiat I 'know of—cross-country at home? Ah, yes—but I don't disguise the danger of this. If you get there the chances are a hundred to one of your returning alive Whoever undertakes this must d o i t voluntarily." " I volunteer, sir.'" Dorothy's d a r k eyes glanced up with an unconscious agony of appeal in tfheir depths, She did not speak, but hor breath came quick and short, and the Holdier turned from that eloquent look. •••If I get to K , sir, I care nothing for the rest," h e said in a firm steady voice, " I will write tho note and .meet you here again," t h e major said, and hurried oil': "You will g o ? " Dorothy spoke quietly, but her eyes paid what her lips'Could not frame. "Would you h a v e m e l e s s brave than a woman—yourself?" was his only reply. She*drew a deep quivering sigh. "Don't start till I get back," she said, and hurried-on her rounds. He \tus just on the point of leaving the barrack-yard when she .returned, breathless, and .if possible paler than before. "(iod speed you!" she said solemnly, placing her little hand lor one instant in his. "I will pray for your safe re- "tnuii; we can ill afford to lose such men as^you." lie r a i s t u r t h ^ n t t l e hand to his lips, then pressed it to'^Ms^heart-—that was all; just that mute farewe+l, and then ho WKH gone—to ride in tho very teeth of death, with the lives of all his comrades probably hanging upon his own. With anguished eyes the girl lifted her fn.i e and h e a r t for one moment in silent, earnest prayer, thon she turned to her work, and compelled herself to be absorbed in it; and the timo went on, each moment fraught with anxious fear and dread, and faint half-Impossible hope. The lime went on until a weight like nothing Dorothy had ever known before crushed down her bravo voung heart. She went -restlessly out into the veranda to listen and watch, and she saw Major Harvey standing t h e r e looking graver than his wont. "Ma;'oi' Harvey,'' the girl said gaspingly, "do you think there is any chance now? Would not Smith have been ba 'k before this if—" "Yes, I fear so. It was a last chance and our only one. Ho may have got across, however, even if he failed to get back. Keep tip heart, Miss Dorot h y ! things cannot get much worse." But there was little.cheerfulness in the attempt to cheer. A look .came into the lovely dark eyes* which t h e major could not u n d e r - stand. "You thin'k he—Smith—is certainly killed?" " I fear so—we cannot toll-; one more brave life gone—that is all, and our own turn may come at any moment*1 " H a r k ! W h a t is t h a t — w h a t is t h a t ? " the girl bounded forward. A rush, a stir, a cheer raised long and loud, an eager little crowd collecting, which opened, however, to let Dorothy's slender figure speed in and tip to its central liglire—a tall m a n alighting from a horse and giving a strained crumpled paper into Major Harvey's eager haad, who read it as he stood there, and then cried aloud: "If we can keep up for two more days, my friends, we shall be saved!" Then the cheer broke out again, but a* it rose. Smith just sank down ut hi.-t officer's feet, and Dorothy's practiced eye mnv the thin red stream filtering through the torn uniform. Calm and helpful, Dorothy Beauchamp sood beside tho surgeon as she had stood hoside many a wounded man, for she was Dr. Car's right hand in his labuiio is work. With no trace of agitation save t h e intense pressure of the earnest line, she handed t h e surgeon his appliances, and waited for his verdiot as he examined Smith's wound. " N o t fatal," he said brightly. " W e shall have him about again in a very short time, Miss Beaucbamp; we can ill aford to lose a man like this. H e will have t h e Victoria Cross, I should say, if he lives to return home, and never man deserved it more. J u s t give me t h a t linen, Miss Beauchamp; I wifl finish his dressing before he returns to consciousness," Dorothy gavo a nervous start and handed the linen with a sudden flush upon her thin sweet face. W h a t memories! What flood of sudden old dear memories came upon h e r at sight of that handsome face laid white and still upon the pillow, clearly a n a fully exposed for the first time to her gaze! She gave a great start, but she had no time for thought, as the busy surgeon began his task. "Here, take this, Miss Beauchamp; keep it for him when he asks for it, will you? Sonio love-token, no doubt, poor fellow! Ah well, a woman might be proud to be constant to a man like this, Curious thing, though, this little trinket has, without doubt, diverted the bullet's c o u r s e Strange, now;, on how trifling a thing one's existence hangs; this bit of gold has saved yon poor fellow's life." Dorothy, accustomed to the little doctor's moralizing, went on with her preparing of tho dressings without glancing at t h e trinket which Dr. Car p u t down as he continued his work, but when the wound was dressed, he picked it up again. "Look here, Miss Beauchamp, how this gold is bent; without doubt it saved the poor fellows life by diverting the bullet's course; just one hair's breadth to t h e right would have made all the difference." Dorothy looked at the trinket then and uttered a little cry. She stretched ou her hand for it, and as she held the little crescent set with diamonds, and suspended to a slender golden chain, all her vague memories assumed shapes of, certainties. TO BE CONTINUED. St. Patrick and the Pirates. During P a t r i c k s childhood, while playing upon the seashore with his two sisters one day, he was seized by Irish pirates, taken to Ireland and sold to the petty chieftain of a pagan elan in that country. Like the prodigal son, he was sent into the field to feed swine. While thus engaged, the religious instruction received from his pious mother came fresh to his mind and touched his heart. Bowing before (iod he sought and obtained pardon for sins. St. Patrick has left a vivid account of his being thus converted. It is contained in a LatiftTTianuscript which he calls his "Confession," and which, with a letter—also in Latin—addressed to Coroticus.a Welsh chieftain, who had seized several of Patrick's Irish converts, is the only literary relic of him that has been preserved. " I was 16 years old,'1 he says, " a n d knew not the true (iod; but, in that strange land, the Lord opened my unbelieving eyes, and, although late. I called my sins to mind, and was converted with my whole heart to the Lord, my God, who regarded my low estate, had pity on my youth and ignorance, and consoled me as a father consoles his children.." Thus it was that this young swinohcad was born again by tho truth and spirit of God, while wandering, solitary and alone, over the green pastures of Ireland. Of the power and genuineness of his subsequent religious experience he writes as follows: "The love of (iod increased more and more in me, with faith and the fear of his name. The spirit urged me to such a degree that I poured fourth as many as 100 prayers in one daj-.. And even dtiring the night, in the forests and on the mountains whore I fed my fioek, the rain. snow and frost, and sufferings which I endured, excited me to look after (iod. * * * The Spirit fermented in my h e a r t . " St. Patricks Legends. In his .efforts to convert the Irish pagans St. Patrick met with muph opposition from their heathen priests, the Druids, who employed every possible trick 'and deception to retain their hold upon the people. It was to expose these impostors that many of JSL Patrick's most remarkable miracles were performed. "He cursed the kettles which the Druids employed in the performance of their mysteries, so that nothing could be boiled in them. He transformed the fertile lands into bogs, and banished tho fish from the waters* to show tho marvelous power he had derived from God. But the Druids still remaining obstinate, he caused tho earth to swallow them up, and so put an end to Druids in Ireland forever. Another of St. Patrick's miracles is thus described in the old Irish ballad of "Polly Roe:" St. Patrick, as in lo-cmls lo!d, The morning be in g very cold, In order to assuage the wo .ther, Co:letted bits of ice l e a t h e r ; Then gently breathed cpou the pyre, Wheu every fragment blazed ou tiro.

The dressed-beef handlers of Missouri, who have i:irge interests in Kansas City, have adopted a novel way of making war on the states which pass laws, like that of Indiina, for the exclusion of all meats not produced within the state. This plan is to boycott the cattle of the states enacting such legislation. Colorado is now subjected to this discrimination, a Colorado brand being equivalent to rejection, and the dealers in Kansas City say the same method of "getting even" will be adopted in regard to other states.

Papers bearing specially on tbe notorious Robinson arsenical poisoning cases had been announced. Dr. Holt declared that there was general igxrtmoce of the symptoms of arsenical poisoning, and claimed that because of thU ignorance the Robinson poisoning cases had gone on without arousing suspicions on the part of medical men. There were, be said, at least eight cases of criminal poisoning; sev^o occurred within five years, and in one family, and the other was that of a relitive. The cases were all treated by physicians of large practice, prominent in the profession, and yet no suspicion of arsenical poisoning was aronsed until an organization in which the victims were insured tried to determine by investigation wby so many persons died suddenly in this family. In support of his statement as to t h e ignorance of medical men of the symptoms of arsenical poisoning, the doctor remarked that certificates of death were given in five of the Robinson cases as follows: pneumonia, typhoid fever, meningitis, bowel disease and Bright s disease. The startling disclosure of the stupid ignorance shown in the treatment of those cases is quite in keeping with tbe usual indiscretion manifested by the profession in the treatment of persona whq are sufferers from the slow and subtle poison which is generated in the system from a diseased state of the kidneys. The afflicted are treated for consumption,, apoplexy, for brain and various nervous disorders, when in most instances it is shown when too late, that the patient was wrongfully and ignorantly treated for a supposed disease which was, in reality, but a symptom of kidney disease, and should have been timely treated as such by the use of Warner's Safe Cure, which is the only remedy known that can be successfully relied upon in the treatment of Buch disease. Such exhibitions of stupidity by those who profess zreat intelligence in such matters is calculated to destroy confidence, and it can be well said that a remedy like Warners Safe Cure, which places the direct means of preserving health in the sufferer's hands, is far more meritorious than high-priced medical advice which is e* generally worthless and too often basei upon on erroneous opinion as to the true cause of illness. Human life is just a little too preciouB to the avearge individual to be sacrificed to the bigotry or the ignorance of others WELCOME IN HIS OLD AGE.

Tnnrsaay, May JWrd, l rt> gituhmv §i§p*td\. I CA L E S M EIVJ Wfttftiinfftou Letter* Froai Onr Correspondent. WASHINGTON, MAY 21, 1889. A family picnic party, distributed in three cairiajjes, left the White House Saturday morning. Two nurses sat on the front seal of the first earring, holding two round faced babies, who » looked as though just rudely awakened. Benjamin Harrison McKee, as a very young gentleman who had been forced into public life at a two tender age, looked serious and,, «bsorl.ed. Miry McKee as an infantile society leader called up too early, to plunj?e again into the mad vortex, impolitely yawned and finally refused to be comforted. Grandfather and Grand mot har Harrison occupied the back seat, fn the second carriage was Secretary Windom and in the third Secretary Rusk. In half an hour all the party had crossed the gang plank of th3 U. S. S. Dispatch, Benny McKee aud the President crossing hand in hand. In a few moments the starting bell was rung and a three days cruise commenced. The Presidential party will probably return to-morrow. Private Secretary Halford did not so to sea, but took advantage of the ab- 4senee of bis chief to go to Atlanta, "Georgia, where his wife and children are visiting. The regular office seekers did not turn up on Saturday or today. The office seekor is a reading animal well abreast of the day and he keeps track of the .President's movements. On Saturday the usual crowd of tourists came, took the President's absence as an injury and that of Secretary Halford as an insult, and had revenge in scouring the rooms open to the public. _AJarge_p_arty_P_f.J^umbia College students, unable to see the President cheered long and loud for Mr. Harrison, and then for Mr. Morton, seemingly under the impression that Mr. Morton also lives in the White House. After trying to think of some "" one else to cheer and failing, the boys let out three lusty cheers for their college and drove off. Advantage is taken of the absence of the President and Mrs. Harrison to hastily do a little .spring cleaning. The carpets have all heed* taken up and curtains removed. Carpets will not be put down again until fall. An important movement in the cleaning line has been-the removal of nearty ten tons of old printed matter. Government reports of no importance to anyone living a n l stores of newspapers that nobody is able to account for, were brought forth from the garrets and consigned to the junk shop. The appointment of Mr. Palmer, of Chicago, as government printer is gen-, ©rally regarded as an excellent one. Mr. Palmer has been a printer, bookbinder, editor and Congressman. He is essentially a practical man, and only such a man can harrdle the unwieldy business of the government printing office. There is no bureau of this government that compares with it in the amount of petty patronage to be distributed and thej number of speculations to be eradicated. The cheapest 6ort of Congressmen generally control the appointments and for years it has been radically a political office. A large minority of its employes are an Arab race, generally holding positions by ""the entiio family, and- willing to turn to be either Democrats or Republicans at a moments notice and without ruffling a feather. Add to these facts, that the Public Printer must needs look to the next session of the Senate December for confirmation and you will see how anxious a summer he will pass, conciliating a big Senator with twenty appointments and a Small Senator for big and little there are even of kings—with two appointments. Thus, though ' his selection comes, under the circumstances, very early, Mr. Palmer wishes it were later in the season. The appointment of Capt. Merideth, the other Chicago candidate for Public Printer, to be head of the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, is expected this week. Of course it will raise a howl amonflr candidates from other bt»tes, but Illinois will be content, a t Ittut tor a few weeks. u. ^uTanry'stuck. Ste»dv employment ^uar.nt d. SAl.

Five hundred and forty-seven of these reports are from 391 townships in the southern four tiers of counties, and 137 reports from 124 townships in the central counties. It is now clear that the amount of wheat winter-killed or otherwise destroyed preyious to the first instant is insignificant. With rare exceptions the reports show the crop to have been at the date in a very good condition, especially if the open winter and lack of rainfall be considered. The exact figures are 90 per cent in the southern counties, 97 in the central, and 100 in the northern, comparison in each case being with vitality and growth of average years. On the 1st of May, 1S88, the condition in the southern counties was 65, in the central 67, and in the northern 90. In May, 1887, the condition in the southern couniiea was 87, and in 1886 90, or the same as this vear. tl •ft The figures above given for May 1, *of tbia year, without- doobfc fairly rep Te'feent the condition at that time, but since tben the crop has suffered greatly, possibly beyond recovery, from drouth. At the time the reports were forwarded a drouth that was just becoming serious prevailed throughout the State. Correspondents almost without excep-i tion note the lightness of the rainfull. From May I to this writing (May 10) there has been hardly more'than a trace of rainfall. The weather is extremely warm, the maximum temperature of the past six days ranging from 71° to85« F. The conditioa of the ground in the southern counties to withstand drouth will be understood if we consider that in the four months, May-August, immediately preceding wheat sowing last fall the rainfall was more than four incites less than the normal, and that the total precipitation (rain and melted snow) in the eight months since September 1 is 7 and 3-hundredths inches less than the normal, a total deficiency of more than 11 inches in the 12 months ending with the first of the present month. In other words, the rainfall daring the year ending May 1 was but a trifle more than two-thirds the ayerage or normal as determined by observations for from seven to eighteen years at the different stations. Reports have been received of tbt quantity of wheat marketed by farmers during the month of April at 324 elevators and mills. Of these 267 are in the southern tour tiers of counties, which is 45 per cent, and 44 are in the | fifth and sixth tiers of counties, which is 38 per cent of the whole number in these sections respectively. The total number of bushels reported ^marketed is 279,517, of which 62,145 bushels were marketed in the first or southern tier of counties; 76,146 bushels in the second tier; 44,048 bushels in the third tier; 67,260 bushels in the fourth tier; 25,663 bushels in the fifth and sixth tiers; and 4,255 bushels in the northern counties. At 62 elevators and mills, or 19 per cent of the whole number from which reports have been received, there was no wheat marketed during the month. The total number of bushels of wheat reported marketed in the nine months, August-April, is 13,550,747, or about 57 per cent of the crop of 1888. The number of bushels reported marketed in the same months of 1887-8 was 12,230,446, or 53 per cent of. the crop of 1887. In 1887-8-reports were received from about 50 per cent, and in 1888-9 from about 69 per cent of the elevators and mills in the southern four tiers of counties. Cloyer meadows and pastures are reported in rather better condition than one month ago. The figures showing average condition are for the southern counties, 87; central, 93, and northern 97. Old clover, or that seeded previous to last year, has been severely injured, much of it destroyed. Nothing has yet occurred to lower the prospects for fruit. The outiook is good for very nearly a full average crop. ttrand Trout Railway Tine Trito. MICHIGAN 4IR LITTB TUVWIOW.

L u c e ' s R e a s o n s . Gov. Luce, in his message to the house recommending a return to the county system of earing for the insane, gives his reasons as follows; "It is believed that the provision requiringt're * tato to pay expenses has greatly increased our asylum population by reason of such payment. Some of the counties are provided with facilities for caring for insane patients, and nearly all of them can more economic illy provide for some who are found in tho asylu n. They are sent there by proper authorities; Hie nsylums cannot refuse to receive them. The people of the county are not interested in their discharge. All this creates a demaud for increased facilities. The expense to the s-tate is rapidly incre sing. It will be, in t.b^p>common course; of events, but a few years until each legislature will bo. ask- •ed to appropriate a million dollars or more,, to pay theso expenses. There is another objection to this. Some counties pay much more than their fair and just, proportion, and to this they seriousiy object, *'. * * 1 believe this policy is wrong/in the ex treme. and very earnestly urge upon the attention c'-ttNVlegislature the propriety of amending the law so that each county shall pay the expenses incurred for the c ire and treatment of the insane sent to the stale institutions from suqh'county. This will remove the objection . raised by the counties which pay more than their fair proportion. It will give them an opportunity to care for patients that do not particularly require medical attendance, and it will reduce the demands for increase in accommodations in tttatc asylums.

The I'nited State* o u r t in an opinion by Justice Bradley, awarded tho executors of the will of M.\ ra ( lark Gaines the sum of .*C>;r>,oO0 against the city of New Orleans for the use of property sold by the city but recovered by Mrs. Gaines alter long litigation. The judgment of the lower court* awarding (he executors $1,: 0,),0,(0 for the use t)t the unimproved property sokl by the city was not concurred iu. This case probably has been the most interesting, the harde d contested and the most prolonged known t-o the judicial history of 1 his country. Over :.'() years 11 go Justice Wayne of the United Sia es supreme court said that when the hist .rian of 'die American bar should come to write up the case it would be legistered as the most remarkab.e in the hislory of America. The case had then been before the supremo court five times in one form or another and has now been decided as many times sigaiu. The firs1 suit, in the case was brought by Mrs, Gaines nhcn ihe wife of Gen. Whitney.) in ISil and since that time decision has followed decision in regard to it unul it has become a by-word that there is always a (Haines case peuding. Tho tirst suit brought to recover what was known as the Kvai'iste Blanc tract in New Orleans. Blanc, bought the tract for ahoui four, thousand live hundred dollars from the executors of Gen Pan.el Claik, a prominent citi/.cn of New Oilcans, lie sold it and some other land to the city of New Orleans for Sla.000 and the city subdivided the tract and sold it, to a number of persons for between six and seven hundred thou-and dollars, agreeing to defend all questions of title, Mrs, Gaines having a few months before claimed it. The grounds on whl.di Mrs. Gaines set up her claim were that she was the child of Gen. Glark by a secret marriage between him and Zalime" Carriers, a woman well kuown in the city, and that Gen. Clark had lelt a later will t an the one under which the property was sold. This secret marriage formed the axis on which the litigation revolved, and the vase was fought with bitterness on both sides. It Was not until a few years before the w a r that Mrs. Gaines was finally declared to I e the legitimate child as well as the lawful heir of Gen. Clark. Even then the city of New Orleans did not surrender, and after the war Mrs. Gaines was compelled to bring a suit for damages. In ISM the circuit court of the United States for the Louisiana district gave judgment in her favor for $1,2,)1 ,(W)7, *nd it is on appe 1 from this judgment that 1he case h; s been decided. The present ruse, it is generally conceded, has all tho resources of the law and is regarded. »9 a final settlement of the litigation.

N.F. \ CHAPTER VI. JSo held bad arrived. The anxiously looked-for, fervently-prayed-for r e - inforcements had not come yet, and each moment now might make their coming of no avail. Things had grown worse and worse. The enemy's lire increased ns the brave little garrison decreased, and the most awful of all rumor* was whispered from one to another with despairing face—the ammunition was falling short. • " I think things are nearly at am end, Mr. Leigh," Dorothy said, coming up to her patient with a new look upon her white young face. " I have just been talking to Major Harvey, and he says—we all know it, and we are all prepared—he says if we are a c t succored in three hours wo must ,1 She did not finish her sentence, oxcept by the anguish in her brave eyes. The next instant she tried to smile; but Leigh's face had grown white to the very lipH. Ho caught the little hand and held it as in a vice, while he rose from his couch and stood'upright. "Dorothy, stay with me,11 he said in hoarse unsteady accents. "Stay with me, my little one, for these few remaining hours. I will protect you while a drop of blood remains in my veins, and then I would slay you with ray own hand, Dorothy, rather than you should fall among those fiends outside." His t e e h were clenched between tho bloodless lips. ,"I have a revolver here,'" the girl said, drawing one from the folds of her gown. " I t is loaded, Mr. Leigh. I have kept it always on purpose. When hope is over I can dio. 'J shall kill mvself before one of those outside enter." She gave a quick involuntary shudder, and then tho b; avo deep eyes looked into Eberhard's, anil his were strained and filled with a horror of agony like nothing the m;ui?s life had ever known before. "The end is coming now, Eberhard, and I think that the worst is over." "Stay with me!" ho only repeated, crushing the little fingers i n his convulsive gra-p. But self was lost in Dorothy now. " I will come back in a minute," she said, disengaging herself firmly. "I must just fetch Elvira. She is in tho he all an- *he flames leaped , spreading like heated combustiofflcers1 quarters all alone. Sir Peter died this morning." Tho slight white figure sped away, and Lord Lester stood, forgetfiil of his wound—forgetful of everything but the moments he counted with [feverish impatience until the girl returned. " W h a t is t h a t ? " Suddenly started as a found, excecOing Others "fell on his ear, and .a cry swered him: "A shell struck the officers' quarters They are«on fire!" Then suddenly, ae upward and outwar wild lire among tho hies, someone cried: "Miss Beauchamp is t h e r e ! " Two or:three darted* to the rescue, but one was there before them. Weakness and wound forgotten, and a giant's strength momentarily possessod, Eberhard, Lord Lester, dashed across the yard n<rw swept by a scathing fire from t h e enemy's.guns, and gained tho ling pile. 4j4he entered it ha saw her, the tlfo-white figure with the soft d a r k !?l^ing on tho ground, the little tlaspetl i n unconsciousness. ig it in his 'herculean grasp, soldier again faced the open square. Shot and shell whistled around him ae ho r.an the gauntlet with his precious burden. Those .watching him i» breathless eagerness, saw him stagger once us if struck. " H e is down," they mua*mured. " N o ; he has recovered; he ia -gaining shelter. Bravo! he teas saved h e r . " • Lord Lester gained the building, » n i staggoring again, white and e\- ;d now, laid fcus burden upon the ^enderly—gently. it down, face upwards, and srrible cry—a cry whose dosld pain nono of those who heard it ever forgot-—broke from the man as h e saw t h e features of tho woman ho had saved. '•It is not Dorothy," he cried. "1 have left my own darling to dio." ••I am here, Eberhard," a sweet .voice said, and Dorothy Boauchamp's eyes, holding even in this awful momant a strange, deep, sudden happiness, grazed into his. " I followed y o u / ' she said simply. " I was close by, waiting to help Elvira, when you picked h e r up. I ran behind you, and you sheltered me to a great e x t e n t No; I am not wounded—not even scratched," answering his unspoken question; but then her glance fell on h e r cousin, and she knelt down beside her with a cry. " E l v i r a ! Look at her. She is dying!" The surgeon who chanced to be there bent over Lady Buskin's silent form. " N o h o p e , " he said with a shake of his head', " t h o ball has struck a vital s p o t It is only a question of minutes. I can d o nothing." " W h a t is only a question of minutes?" a. shrill agonized voice wailed, and Elvira opened her eyes end half Bat up. T h e ball which h a d caused Leigh t o stagger as it struck his "burden had indeed hit a vital spot. The dark wild eyes gazing up from one to another of t h e fa'-'ea around, were already g l a d n g ; the face was assuming the ghastly pallor which portends death, "Dying! Who is dying?" tho terrified voice cried. "'I cannot die; I dare not die. Save me, doctor. Dorothy— Eberhard, save me! I will do anything—malce any amends. I will restore all—confess all—tell the world the truth. 1—I committed , the forgery on Lord Lester's name. Eberhard Leigh i s innocent. Tell the whole world this—the truth, 1 say. Clear his name; I will bear all the penalty. I confess—I confess—but I cannot die. 1 have been so wicked— so bad—I dare not die!" Her voice rose to a scream, which in its agony pierced Dorothy's heart. "Oh, do something for her—do something for her!" she entreated, raising tear-dimmed eyes to the surgeon's face. But even as the words left h e r lips they saw t h a t it was too late. Lady Ruskln's voice ceased suddenl y ; she fell back—she was dead. But with death stealing swiftly upon each one of that little devoted band there did not seem so great a gulf between them. Each minute ticked by the clock brought the end nearer, nearer, nearer. All who could do service were doing what their failing means allowed to prolong the struggle in despairing hope; but Dorothy knelt by Lord Lester's side in the room in which h.ejuiead_cQusin lay~ x E b e r h a r d had sunk upon a couch, exhausted by the effort lately made. Dorothy held his hand in* silence: his arm around her waist; her weary head was pillowed on his shoulder; her other hand held the tiny revolver firmly. "You will remember," she said, looking in his face for an instant. " W o will die together," he said, quietly. "Ah, darling, t h a t is all we can hope for now!" Kneeling .th^re the girl prayed half audibly, half brokenly, and the man's deeper voice joined in the holy solemn words. Only a Higher Power could save thorn now; all hope of human aid was given up. " W h a t is that—what is t h a t ? " Dorothy exclaimed, suddenly starting to her feet. "Oh, Eberhard, is it t r u e ? " She raised iher revolver and looked at him. " H u s h ! " ho said, putting his hand on tho tiny weapon, as ho stood erect listening intently with ashen face. "Those are not tho voices of those brutes outsides, Dorothy; that is an English cheer—those aro our own men joining! That is the strain of an advancing band! They are here at last! They arcrcoming in time! My darling, we are saved!" For one instant Dorothy stood listening to the advancing clear-growing sounds—?,tood wiih IICL* lover's arm tightly around her, her pale pure face irradiated by a wondrous glow. For one instant she turned and looked into the eyes seeking hers with a passion of tenderness and love in their depths. Then, as t h e rescuing music echoed close at hand, and the cheers rose long and loud, the girl slipped to the ground, and knett, there with clasped hands and upraised eyes. " L e t us t h a n k God, E b e r h a r d , " she «obbed. CHAPTER VII. Summer in England—desr, fair old England! The stately hall of Hushtree, the country house of the Borons Lester for countless generations, was glowing in tho rays of a setting sun: the shadows were creeping long and delieiottsly cool over the wide velvetlike In win and rainbow-huod flowerbeds, over tho grand old terraces and the statues which slotted thrun here and t h e r e . In the large drawing room with its windows, half voilei by curUins of filmy lace, «et wide spen to obtain the evening breeze, Lady Les'er sat entertaining a number of visitors, who sat drinking tea and chatting. Kushtree Hall wa* always full of people, for it was the most popular horse in the county. Lord Lester was a great favorite by reason of his handsome face and genial courteois manner, and his wife—people went into ecstacy over her. The largo drawing-room was filled by beautiful costly things; money and taste unlimited had gathered together pictures, china, ornaments, embroidery, gems from every couptry in the globe, a r e specimens of Indian, Persian, Turkish, and other Eastern handicraft; while flowers—exquisite flowers and ferns, growing and cut, were everywhere; in costly old china bowls, in silver inlaid vases, in groups and singly—scented the air. It was a beautiful room but t h e most beautiful thing in its whole space was Lady Lester. Dressed in a cool white gown of thin embroidered I n d a n ^ s i l k , with black jet brooch, and bra&dAts, and jet pin fastening up her half-short, silky dark hair, she was a picture, as some of the country people said, to make old eyes young. Here was such an exquisitely sweet face—the village folk compared it to an angel's; the purg pale skin was so softly, deliciously transparent; the great, deep, gloriouB eyes were BO tender, so true; tho smile which broke over the exquisite features constantly, and lightened them up delightfully, was so bright, so winning, people loved to watch Lady Lester's face. Viewed from a distance, it looked so soft and young, it was girlish in the extreme, but, scrutinised nearer, there were indelible marks of suffering and sorrow upon it, and those it was in reality which gave Dorothy Lester's face its greatest, most subtle charm, as the never-to-be-forgotten experiences which caused those marks had lifted her character h i g h above the ordinary level. The guests departed lingeringly, and welcomed to the end by their charming hostess; then Doro'.hy strolled hatless out from the window and across the lawn into a walk winding among the lime-trees. She plucked a bunch of deep crimson roses as she passed along, and fastened them in her waistband, and with just t h a t touch of color to make her beauty perfect, she came face to face with her husband as she turned a corner. "My darling!"' Volumes we-o uttered in t h a t one ejaculation, and Lord Lester clasped his wife in his arms as she happily ran into them. " D e a r E b e r h a r d , " she said lovingly, "you are late, or it seems so to me." 4 'A good seeming^ sweetheart.; I~ eameT the instant I could get away. Have you had a pleasant afternoon?" "Oh ye?*; a great many people. They were all very nice." "You think tho whole human race nice, don"tyou, Dorothy?" "1 have my preferences—I like one person better than o t h e r s , " saucily glancing up into his admiring eyes. He kissed her for answer, and she went on, twining her arm in her husband's the while: "Some of them were talking about the mutiny this afternoon, Eberhard. It b r o u g h t back so to my mind those,awful scenes " " I won't have 'It! Yrou must not think of them, darling!" quickly. "Ah. but I never coiiid forget! My husband, do you know what was the greatest trouble—the keenest pain I had to hear in all t h a t dreadful time?" she spoke half shyly, with her earnest eyes raised, and a color oh her cheek. "You bore horrors t h a t would havekilled a n o t h e r woman, like the heroine you are, my own!" "But this—this was silly and selfish, and yet it was the worst. I fancied you loved poor Elvira still, and I pictured to myself your m a r r y i n g her, Eberhard, and I thought—I imagined —I fancied things that g a t e me pain like nothing else could give. Of course her death, poor darling, put an end to everything." Quickly, firmly Lord Lester spoke, and as be spoke he stopped dead, and placing his two hands on his wife"s shoulders, looked straight into her eyes. " H e r life altered my feelings utterly. I did love her-—I proved that by all I sacrificed for her. but with that sacrifice my love expired utterly. Had you never existed, I should never have turned again to Elvira! She was my first love, I own, but the last is best." He smiled into the sweet eyes as his voice thrilled, and his arm drew the slender figure close to his heart. "You are my last love, Dorothy—my true love; my best, the love which can never falter or "flicker for it is founded on no attraction of face or form (though you have nil that as no other woman can have, my own), but upon the ever enduring foundation of deepest respect and venerating esteem. When I watched you day by day in Cyclone Warn! a gs. The Picayune has constantly reiterated t h e importance of having a complete and thorough system of storm w a r n i n g s and meteorological observations t o give advance information of tho cyclonal hurricanes which originate in the tropical archipelagoes of the Caribbean and West Indian seas. For several years post this journal maintained, a t its own cost at Key West, special communication with Rev. Father Vines, vj<he eminent meteorologist at Havana, by which means was received and published, in advance of any other agency, intelligence of the movemeuts of the tropical cyoloue-3 towards t h e Gulf of Mexico. T h i s service has been undertaken by the United States weather bureau within about a year past, obviating the necessity for private enterprise, and the beneficial results which have com3 from these storm warnings ought te stimulate the government to provide, on a more extensive scale, for observing the meteorology of that* ro/ion which may be called the cradle of the cyclone. These storms originato in the southeastern limiti of the Carribaan Sda, and are first observed off the Windward Islands, which extsnd in a g r e i t semicircular curve, with the convex side to tho eastward, making a sort of broken but well denned chain from tho coast of Guianna, South America, to Porto Rico, the most easterly of the great West India islands. These islands are connected with Guiannese ports and with each other by telegraph cables, and thence with the United vStates by way of Key West. There is also another cable from Cuba, by way of Jamaica, to Colon. There is in addition a cable from Coatzacoalco3, on the Isthmus of Tehauntepec, to Galveston, and another from Vera Cruz, by way of Tampico, to Galveston. By means of interior and coast lines the principal gulf ports of Centra^ America aro attainable by telegraph. It is thus possible to obtain' telegraphic reports of the weather from every principal station around the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico, and if there were some proper international arrangement intelligence of tho meteorological conditions at all im- .portant points could be obtained by wire in the United States. When storms start in those tropical seas they first move to the westward as long as they remain in tropical latitudes. Should they become diverted to the northward by tho mountain wall of Central America they either move into tho Gulf of Mexico or they sweep up along the Atlantic coast, generally following the Gulf stream. These storms operate according to general laws with a very considerable degree of regularity, and if we can only have information of their positions at several successive stations it is possible to forecast their future movements with somt> degree of reliability. At any rate by means of existing telegraph facilities it is possible to get such warning of tho approach of cyclones t h a t great benefits may inure not only to the seafaring classes, but to the people on shore. It is certainly "worth wl^ilo for the government to undertake at considerable outlay of expense to establish a p r o p e r - s y s t e m of observation to get this information. No nation is as much interested in the matter as is ours. The benefits to be secured are so great that no reasonable expense should bo spared t6-.insure information on which the most important consequences depend. We Ynust here express acknowledgements t c t h e Hydrographic Bureau of the Xavy for a carefully prepared chart in v.ii'K'h the various telegraphic conmiu nicotians between the United States and the various islands and countries to the south of us are given, with a view of urging on the attention of the public the facilities which exist for securing the establishment of a system of cyclone warning. Congress should embrace the opportunity c/lTered.—New Orleans Picayune. '"••—. Something Ton Should Know. Many of our readers have often asked "What,Is Bright's Disease of the Kidneys, about tarhioh we hear so much?" To answer their question we have secured tbo> following explanatory article, written by a competent authority. One of the worst physical scourges of the world to-d»y-iiotably in Engissd,Qermany, America and Australia—is Kidney Disease. An alarmingly large proportion of the population of the countries named is afflicted with it, In one form or another. The symptons of Blight's Disease fwhich is but an advanced form of Kidney Disease) differ in different individuals, but generally the patient presents a flabby, bloodless look, is drowsy and easily fatigued, has pain in the back, vomiting and febrile disturbance. Dropsy, varying in degree from slight pufflness of the face to an accumulation of the fluid sufficient to distend the whole body and to occasion serious embarrassment to respiration, is a very common accompaniment. The urine is reduced in quantity, is often of dark, smoky or bloody color, and exhibits to chemical reaction the presence of a large amount of albumen, while under the microscope blood corpuscles and casts are found. Very often dimness of vision, due to a morbid condition of the retina of the eye, and also hypertrophy of the heart, leadine to a fatal apoplexy, are accompaniments of the disease. „ There are several forms of the malady, but their common prominent characteristic is the presence of albumen in the urine, and frequently also the co-existence or dropsy. These associated symptoms, in counection with Kidney Disease were first described in lfc27 by Dr. Richard Bright, an English physician, who flr^t inveitigated them. Sometimes there i» a degeneration of the tissue* of the kidney into fat, thus impairing the excreting powers of the organ so that the urea in not sufficiently separated irom the blood. The flow of the blood, when charged with this urea, is retarded through the minute vessel*, congestion ensuei, and exudation of albumen aDd hbrin ii the remit. The disease is often accompanied by eruptions on the skin, a^ boils, etc., and is frequently associated with enlargement of the heart. The causes of this terribly malady are, indulgence in too much ice-water as a beverage, strong drink, high living, indigestion, exposure to wet and cold, various kinds of levers, malaria, pregnancy, and other bodily derangements, such as a complication of certa'n acute diseases, like erysipelas, dipththcria, and especially scar let fever (of which it is one of the most frequent tnd serious after effects), diseases of bones and other scrofulous affections. The kidneys being the mo.H important excretory organs of the body, their derangement may speedily destroy life. Common-sense treatment of Kidney Disoase of the charactfer referred to necessarily involves removal of the causes, rectification of other secretions and increase in the number of blood-red corpuscles by the administration of Warner s Safe Cure. It is. a specific even in the advanced stages, when the blood has poisoned the nerve centers, restoring the secretion of healthy fluids and rulievinK the congestion of the brain. It speedily arrests the imnammatory action, which is marked by an increased amount of urine. The albumen gradually disappears, the dropsy subside* and the* patient recovers^ There is no standstill in advanced kidney disease; these who are afflicted with it are constantly growing better or worse. How important-, therefore, that this terrible disease be taken in hand in time and treated with a known specific.

D. BENNETT, Publisher. PINCKNET MICHIGAN Hon. A. C. Mellette. Colonel A. C. Mellette, recently appointed governor of Dakota until its division into two states, was born in 1845 in Indiana and served during the civil war, upon the close of which he took up his residence at Munuie, Indiana, where he pratised law and was made prosecuting attorney of his jr.didicial district. He was elected to the state house of representatives, and while serving in that capacity, laid the foundation of the excellent public school system of Indiana which was adopted by nearly ¢ 1 of the western states. With General Brady he entered into the newspaper business, publishing the Muneie Times, one of the most influential republican newspapers of the district; in addition to this he carried on an extensive paper business. In 1878 he was appointed register of the general land office at Springfield. Dakota, and afterward removed to Watertown, his present home.

Parsons of Waniago, the Inventor of " T h e Aerial Torpedo," recently wrote an article on the moisture problem, whieh appeared in the Kansas City Times of the 10th inst. The article is of surpassing interest to the western farmers, as it d^als directly with the one question which of all others must be solved before the wild western plains can be wholly subdued. The article will stimulate thought in the right direction. We believe it contains suggestions that are vital. At any rate, the subject is worthy of grave attention along the lines blocked out by the writer. The article is as follows: Knowing what an interest Tho Times takes in the d e v e l o p m e n t of Kansas City, and of course realizing that the growth of this metropolis depends upon the productiveness of the soil of the eastern slope of the Rocky mountains, I feel confident that you will lake enough interest in tho subject that I am about to offer to publish it in the columns of your paper. It is one that will b j a benefit to thousands who are now trying to make their homes upon this treeless prairie. When in the future we can see dotting the prairie in every direction innumerable lakelets causing to grow two blades of grass where one grew before, we can look back to this article and say that it has been of some benefit to mankind. •In such years as the three last have been in Kansas, the fanner sees one crop after another fail for the want of moisture; he plants the fourth with a trembling hand and prays this year there may be enough rain sent to water it, but the hot winds of July and August begin to blow and his crops are withered before the blast. Mow if the United States wishes to people these states of the eastern slope of the Rocky mountains with happy—homes, they must make some-- move to aid tho willing hand* that are now laboring to accomplish this. What is wanted is moisture. We all know that the soil is rich and that bountiful crops could be produced if we had now and then a rain at the right time. We also know that during our driest seasons we have a great abundance of rainfall—sufficient to produce the very best of crops, but our treeless prairies shed water like the roo; of a house, so that within twenty-four hours after a good rain the earth is again dry and tho inner part of this water is choking the streams on its way to the Gulf of Mexico. future world before me and the love of ray wife and children in my heart, that I would not be hired for hire to go into one great battle again for all the gold that this great government could give me; and no man who sets a value on human life could be hind to go to battle, but for the love of countrij one million bravo men could be marshalled within thir;y days to fight to the death for freedom and liberty. Then talk of pay! When the boy has paid his mother for the pains of his birth, the days and nights of care and suffering, heartaches, furrowed-brow and white hair, then, and not until, can this government pay its soldiers in money for its services rendered. All that a son can do for his mother in t h e way of compensation is to show adequate appreciation, and that is all that tho government, can do for its soldiers. Dom Pedro is said to have expressed an opinion to the effort tha,t he is the last emperor that B r a u l will ever see. Whether or hot his majesty ever expressed hiself as reported, it is certain that a revolution is pending that will lead to the early establishment of a Brazilian republic. The liberal policy of Dom Pedro in regard to slavery has expedited the inevitable. Tha liberated slaves refuse to work, and while Y.ioir places are being rapidly filled by Europeans, the feeling in favor of <elf-government is growing very rap- Idly. Brazil has a great future before it, and when relieved of the incubus of royalty, will rapidly progress in civilization and prosperit}*. . tm • Twelve young ladies of New Haven, Conn., have founded a matrimonial society, each member of which has sworn to use all means in her power to get married. The only remarkable thing about the affair is t h a t they .bare formed a society. It has been ""proposed to~T> ulld gre a t lakes or reservoirs at the foot of the Rocky mountains. This would tend t j produce a climatic change, but not great; contractors would grow rich out of such a project, while a much greater good be done by distributing this change could be wrought and more money among the farmers to construct small lakes from one-half aero to two acres in extent over this great a r e a from the Gulf of Mexico to British America, There is no doubt but the lakes would be built by the farmer if he only realized their value and had some aid from the government. Dams can be built across ravines at a trifling expense and and trees can be planted around these dams. It is well known tD thos3 who have cultivated fish that these fish ponds, occupying worthless land, render it as.valuable to them as their most choice and productive, for one or two acres stocked with fish would furnish their families with that luxury that but few farmers enjoy. This idea was presented to my mitid as I watched a he:ivy rain in June. It came down in torrents; everv little rivulet was choked with water. There was water everywhere. As I watched it rapidly flowing by,the thought came, if we could only store this surplus there would be enough to carry us through the next dry season, which we are sure will soon como. If an appropriation were made by the United States, and each state also gave to this enterprise, then each man could be paid a fair price for his land and something each year to keep it in repair. This money would provide for the prosent wants of many a poor man who is now laboring hard on the frontier for the support of a family, and it would also aid him in making himself a homo, while the ponds would furnish his family with nourishment. The government would soon learn that tills money had been well spent. . B-ut the greatest benefit that would be derived by the common wealth would be in the great climatic change that these lakes would produce. Every section of load should have one o r more of these lakes, in some oases they might be large enough to hold water for irrigation, but the idea is to have them for the purpose of evaporating basins. There being thousands of thetn, they would represent a yast area of water surface friuged with trees that would make a quick growth aud keep these ponds from too rapid evaporation. T h e n our hot winds, or the "simoons of the American desert." blowing over these bodies of wat er, would cause evaporation, and become cooler, so that they would be robbed of their terror. As they wafted thia moisture northward over a country cooled by innumerable lakelets, these vapors would become condensed, and fall in the form of rain. Again, the north wind will carry the remaining moisture to the south, and, there w?.ter the thirsty crops of that region. Thus we see, as our winds blow almost diiectly north,and south, that instead of this moisture being lost to this section, it would again and again be wafted back and forth over this arid region, and the country that is now looked upon as being almost uninhabitable would yield to the farmer a most productive harvest. It is a well known fact that since this country has been opened up and a large amount of land been brought under cultivation the rainfall has increased. We also know that over forests, bodies of water and even cultivated land, the temperature, is cooler than over the uncultivated prairies; thus the coolness causes the moisture floating over to be condensed and it falls in the form of rain. One can notice in dry seasons, when we have but now and then a shower, that thf?y seem to follow the great water courses. Wo can attribute this to the same cause. The atmosphere being cooler there, these vapors are condensed in their passage over it and rain is the consequence. Farther proof might be given, but tho reflecting mind will see that a great change would come over this country, and for every dollar that was given to help tho industrious pioneer, the government would receive tenfold in tho increase of its revenue and the additional wealth of these great plains. We must make ,some move in this country to improve our condition. This subject is one which should not only interest the farmer, but the mechanic and merchant as well, for without moisture we have but an arid region, a barren desert. Every senator and congressman from the Pakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, Texas and Colorado should act in . unison to secure an appropriation from the United States, and tin: legislatures of every state and territory should oifer pome substantial aid to it •; pioneers to construct these reservoirs. Kansas standing out as a bright star in tho galaxy -Qi~ siate^ Ln_ ev-ery mayjjincut. that helps to elevate mankind, can do no better than to see that this idea is carried out. Let this subject be agitated, societies formed and aid asked for from tbc states and the United States; then an interest will be awakened. The farmer, seeing the great value of these reservoirs, will begin to build them, and if an appropriation of a million a year for the next ten years can be secured to these states and territories of the eastern slope of tho Rocky mountains, it will not only bring us plenty j of rain, but it will distribute $U ),000,OOo where it is most needed, for it will aid a people that is as deserving and that needs tho protecting aid of the government as much as any people in this broad land.

X am a nickel, and if you don't think I have to hustle listen to this tale of woe. J u s t .to give you a sample of what a day's work for me is I will be* gin a t he hour of S o'clock yesterday morning, when a tired compositor, who bad been slinging solid minion the livelong night, fished me out of his pocket all stained with antimony. He handed me to a street oar conductor, who cast on me one glance meant to be fascinating, and dropped me into a nest of my kinsmeu, some older, soma younger than I, and rang his bell as I touched bottom. I had just gotten on speaking terms with ray metallic sisters and cousins and aunts when up I came again, side by side with a fellow who claimed to be of genuine mintage, but who, I am sure, was made on North Clark street, and poured as change into the hands of a club man, who was going home. He carried us with a tenderness that made us think maybe that we were pretty much all ho had left after paying dues and incidentals, and when ho finally reached his home he tried to unlock the front door with ma. But finding that I was not built that way, he t r i a l a key with better results, and entered a very tidy home indeed. Then ho dropped me and my mates into a spoon-holder on the diningroom table with so much of a racket that I he ird a sleepy woman in an adjoining room ejaculate: "Oh, I know what t h i t is; it's nickels and pennies." She needn't have been so contemptuous about i t Nickels may be of small account, but they are all they pretend to be and do just what they promise, every time. Well, there we lay, while a lot of dizzy spoons, standing on their heads all around us, tried to pick up an acquaintance until daylight cams, and a ray of sunlight ran right through a rift in the curtain and touched me with a really cheery attention. Presently a girl with her hair in papers spooned me and two or three others out and carried us tightly in her hand to the butcher shop, where she rolled us across a greasy and not too tidy c*6uliter into a till as shallow as most other people whose sole purpose 4s to -held money. But we are all reasonably clean. That's what I like about a nickel. There is some character about it, and it doesn't take contamination from everything it touches, like this stuck-up paper money, which cannot travel through three pairs of hands without showing where it has been. Nickels may be handled by all sorts of people, but we never give anything away. If we know where Taseott was wo couldn't give it away. About 1> o'clock a little girl started home with me in her mitten, and pinched s.> tightly t h i t I slipped through a hole in the thumb, and roiled right down into ttb~mrdd7e"oTllio~ sidewalk. "Now,11 thought I, " I will lie hero and watch the people pass.'" But I didn't. A wanderer gobbled me up with some xcry dirty fingers and skated mo into a saloon next door to the police station so quickly that it made my head swim. r He laid-me on the bar and for a shamed half-minute I rested beside as bad a brand of fusel oil as I ever hoped to smell. Then it was gone and I ground my hardened front against the smooth cheek of a goddess of altogether too much liberty in the till. She whispered to me that she had last been held by the treasurer of an anarchist meeting. 1 was in some danger of injury there, for it was quite a drop from the. bar t j tho till and money kept tumbling in. But I put up my shield and defended myself as best I could, until a man with the smell of hayseed, cattle cars a n ! gin upon him claimed me for his own and bore me away in company with m o r e beer than was good for him. It always makes me feel mean whan a man trades a dime for me and a glass of beer—just as though we were of equal value. And then I don't think much of a man who drinks beer on a winter I morning, anyway. But he found mo worth something to him, for, after his beer quit interesting him he traded me for a morning paper down at the stock yards and I noticed the boy didn't give him any change, either, calculating on his verdancy, 1 reckon. Tho boy had two more like me and he played "heads and tails" against another boy of like riches, and won. Then he passed me over tho fragrant counter of a bread store and went homo to a very late breakfast with a loaf of bred like an Ericsson torpedo. Before I got acquainted with tho people in ors hint that it is taken west bv gov- the till tho baker drew me ernment contractors to feed tho Indians 4 o u t a n d h ^ndod mo to a scrub woman and supply our army with dailj' bread. ,In very dry summer weather this dust 'fills the air of thai mill and is often explosive. Twice there have been accidents of the kind iu this Industry, who had just polished the floor. She had done a good deal of work, and I felt somewhat lonesome with the few who wont with me to pay her; but when she traded me for a package of amoktie gift ••; had n l u s • lng tobacco next door I fc& ^ ^ ^ ^ I thought she had had c o o u g a T ^ ^ n 1 * mind stopping to tall you t h a t U I h a * to get down on my ka*a* and grind around over a wet floor b a l l a n h o u r for a dime that I wouldn't smoke r « r y , much. But the tobaeconiat was a right' good fellow, and when h i * little glth came in from the living rooms rear, in a jaunty hood and a toft, cloak, he gave me to h e r withou ing a word. And I t h o u g h t t h e n was the first time all day any one given me up just for p u r e love. T h e r e wero three more like m e in h e r pocket* and one went for car fare, one for caramels, and the last ono dropped into a notion store for so neat a little purse t h a t nobody would have noticed t h e r e was no money left to go inside. Presently a man bought some kerchiefs, and I went out to hi change, finding just one fellow in pocket—a near relation, by t h e way, one of the San, Francisco branch of o u r family, and just my age. T h e man handed us out together for a very common dinner indeed, and I began to hope we might travel together uwhilo, when down I wont again in change to an exquisite fellow with a fur collar on his overcoat and a shiny plug hat, I noticed he seemed ashamed of having eaten in such a cheap place, and dodged a little as he reached the s t r e 3 t He spent me for cigarettes, and for the first time all day I felt like protesting. I had been in some honest hands and done 6orae square trading, and I do think it was asking a good deal of me to go an even trade for a bunch of foolkillers. But it seemed to be a busy Saturday, and I w a s out again in no time and away with a m a n who thought I was worth as much as a little piece of champaigne-soaked tobacco which'lay beside me. After such judgment I wasn't surprised to see myself spinning over a bar into a saloon' till again, whore I lay until a little girl got me and carried me off in the sams hand which bore a bucket of beer, while a pretzel filled h e r other hand. She seemed such ,a nice child that I hoped she might soon learn from eminent authority t h a t intoxicating drink is never sold to children in Chicago. It seemed 1 was on a downwal- crtending course^^ just_m7wr,~for~from her home, squalid and cheerless, I went to a Chinese laundry for a shirt that should have been done up at home; and I wondered as the pig-tailed leper handled me how long it would take a lazy, beer drinking wife to do up a hard working husband. The Chinaman bought rice with me, as might have been expected, and I rolled into the till of a busy cashier of a mammoth store, glad to escape anywhere. The girl cashier pulled me up again in a m i n u t e and sent me away as change, and I fell into the warmest, softest hand 1 had known in years. I t was the hand of a mighty pretty young woman, whoso good clothes bore a faint perfume, and whose honest loving care in buying for some one at home made me wish I might know her better. She put mo into a soft little purse beside some of that awful paper money and against one of the yellow aristocrats of our species, but when she got on the street car she picked me out with pretty gloved fingers, and I kissed them for luck before I dropped into the conductor's gaping pocket. I crept well down into a corner and lay there secure from disturbanca while many of my relatives c.irae and went, and I could plainly see through my prison wall that many strong young" men sat still while tired or weak women stood up and clung to the straps, swinging back and forward with the changing impulse of the cable. But tho gener.J condition was compensated now and then when a strapping young woman sat down thankless in the seat yielded to her by a weary old man. At length the whirling, jerking conduct of tho car told me we had almost reached the nothern limits, and I began to think I would mingle again with tho nu nickels down town, when at thof moment I went to a fat, warcn-pa man who pressed me warmly.—( go Herald.

T o the Editor.—* see that newspaper articles are again making their »ppeanuu.« calling attention to matters pertaining t o be 1th a» well as to t h e means wnereby disease may be removed and good health preserved. I am thereby reminded that I have received from time to time,, pamphlet publications issued by t h e well-known firm of by H. H. Warner & Co. which dwell on the history and growth of kidney diseases; showing how such i s t h e cause of consumption, heart, brain and nervous disorers, which can be only success fully treated by removing the primary disease from the kidneys. At t h e same time care is taken to remind the reader that W a r n e r s Safe Cure i s the only means whereby the physician or the individual can Ruocessfuily prevent and cure this class of disease. Whilst I have pergonal cause to feel grateful to Warner's Safe Cure, for the benefit which I derived from it when suffering from kidney troubles last spring, I cannot see, since, that remedy is already s o well known in every household, w h y the parties interested in its manufacture should continue to expend money in calling attention to what ihe public already knows so well. I am aware, Mr. Editor, "that the members of the medical profession are seldom di-ipesed to give due credit to proj rietary medicines, but public confidence in likely to be even more shaken in those learned gentlemen since the startling d n closures in the Robinscu poisoning cases were mode in Somerville, Mass. Here it was discovered, through the efforts o* an insurance company, that eight cusei of death irom arsenical poisoning had occurred—seven of tbem in one family, and within Jive years and the other that of a relative—wherein t h e true cause of death had not been even suspected by prominent physicians who were in attendance, b u t who treated the cases for other causes, and finally, when death occurred, issued certificates for such causes as pneumonia, typhoid fever, meningitis, etc. After such an evidence of the utter in competency of those physicians who were regarded as expei-ts in iheir profession, I cannot conceive w h y it will ho longer necesBury for further advertising to be done in behalf of Warner's Safe Cure, since I deem the Soraerville disclosure to be the best possible endorsement of the good sense manifested by those who take matters of health in their own hands and use a remedy which experience has shown to be fully ndapted for the purposes intended, instead of trusting themselves in experimental hands.

President Harrison will confer a favor upon an anxious store of appli cancy on the supreme bench at once. It was expected two weeks ago and th« candidates and their friends ac« very impatient. . It is hinted that the President is retarded by the quality of tlie applicants. H'so, heis, over particular, for certainly a do/on men as ah e as Chief Justiee Fuller have presented themselves, and it did not take Mr. Cleveland Ions: to select Mr, Fuller, the truth is that the few m e n # a t t h e very front of the lepral profession could not be induced, on account of the smalloess of the salary to accept the position. The honor would not prove sufficient inducement, for although the a n o i n t m e n t mjtfht still look well in a biojfi-aphyrthe, character of the m?n appointed to the "supreme tench in the last twenty ytais has heen such as to >lower the former standard. The candidate most talked of is Attorney General Miller, it would be, of bourse personally pleasing to the President to thus honor him, but he might find a serious objection in that it would deprive him of his oldest and most Bteadfast friend in the cabinet * IT he can do it without seriously incommoding himself, you may be sure that the President will thus elevate his old law partner. The necessary changes in the cabinet would 1¾ easy. Secretary Noble originally expected ana particularly desired to bo Attdruey-ueneral. The multiplicity of annoying details in the work of the interior department and the uterine diM'ejjard of sound law practice in its various bureaus, have combined to make bis official life a burden. Added to this he has political ambition, beii>£ eyen ' said to 'nave the Vice-presidential bee in his bonnet and fnrthur a habit of trying to do the work of the entire department, in so far as distributing all patronage and supervising nil orders are concerned. Decidedly, Mr. Koble would make a good Attorney-General, and the administration would be relieved by the transfer. i>f^u- wry stmli.

Such an event, Mr. CUrk^on would doubtless be appointed Secretary of the fnterort a-pf^^tic^r-M^itdHie-rms frVr?t-n-&H C'ovetod. To the politicians of the Republican party, His selection would be e'minently satisfactory. It is said that in his present position of Assistant Post-master General lie consider* party seryice as the first and supremerecornuiendation for office. lie is a spoilsman after the heelers own heart, though He would not go so far as^to aproint a man whom he honestly thought incompetant. It was stated when Mr. Clarkson accepted his present position that the first vacancy in the cabinet would be his. At that time it was though* that John Wanamaker had accepted the post-office portfolio merely for the honor and would soon resign. That, however, is how extremely improbable, andv the present is most decidedly Mr. Clarkson's golden opportunity. H these cabinet changes be made Mr. Cbauncey I. Filley, of St. Louis, would doubtless be selected to till the yacancy caused in the Assistant Post-master Generahhip. The death of Allen Thorndyke Kice adds to President Harrison's trials, that of selecting a new llnssian minister at as early day as possible. The pressure for the place commenced as soon as the breath was out of Mr. Kice's body. Half a dozen prominent statesmen w<?re on band this morning ready to urge the claims of various candidates. < I believe that William Walter'Phelps will be the lucky man, at least if Secretary Blaine has his* will. Friday was indeed murderer's day in Washington last week. Beside a hanging there was a murder and suicide. A blear vagrant shot his wife to death in the presence of the scholars she was engaged in teaching and took his own life. She left a letter of >nllloo'. l v s .

A Lansing correspondent of a Detroit paper Bays: Another lively scramble over Upper peninsular lands is inevitable. This time It is the mining investors and the the homesteaders arrayed against an English syndicate known as the "Michigan land and iron company." The struggle may be long and bitter. Between Marquette and L'Anse nearly 700,000 acres were granted to the Marquette, Houghton & Ontonagon railroad company in alternate sections within a limit of 20 miles on either side of the track. When the state gave a patent to the railroad company the latter was allowed to select the lands where it chose instead of being compelled to take those nearest the line of the road. As a result, the lands south of the road, t h a t were liable to prove rich in iron deposits, were selected, and there is still a large number of alternate sections north of the right of way,but within the 20 mile indemnity limits, that were not conveyed to the company, aud it has no claim 10 them watever. These lands comprise nearly 30,000 acres, and form a strip nve miles wide in Baraga county, extending in an irregular curve from Keweenaw Bay on the west to Lake Superior on the east. There is a consider able amount of agricultural land within this territory, but the most of it is rough and broken and, it is now believed, is rich in gold aud silver ores. The Marquette, Houghton & Ontonagon grant wan transferred some time ago to the English syndicate, und the latter through its agent, a Mr. Stevens of Madison, Wis., has notified the state land office t h a t it proposes to hold the Baraga county strip as well. Tho alternate sections in this strip have all been certified to the state, and as they are not coterminous with or opposite to an uncompleted iwrtiou of the railroad, they were not forfeited by the recent act of congress. In the expectation ol a general forfeiture of all unearned lands, a considerable number of homesteaders have settled on the s t r i a It is alleged t h a t the syndicate ha* already begun u warfare against tho squatters, und that its agents are burning isolated cabins and crowding off the owuers. At Skanee, on Huron B a y , ' t h e r e is a settlement of 40 or 50 Scandinavian farmers and fishermen. The settlement has a j-ostoffice and has existed seven or o g h t years. These people have not yet beeu disturbed, but are on the anxious seat. Rep. Wagner has introduced in the house a resolution requiring the state to relinquish the lands. '1 ho passage of this would Btraighten out the trouble. The officials of the railway company admit that the road was given patents for all the land it has or can earn, but nevertheless it will require another act of congress to forfeit the unearned cer dried indemnify lands if the state does not relinquish. This may involve sever.11 years more of waiting, and in the meantime the English syndicate will reign supremo on the Baraga strip its well as in its control of a number of descriptions south of the railroad which were certified anduot patented.

Merrick off Presquo Isle on the lhth inst., resulting iu the sinking of the schooner with tho loss of her crew except the captain and one man. Following are the names of the lost: Martin Johnson of Detroit, mate; John Charlevoix of Detroit, seaman; William Ours of Ashtabula, seaman; Patrick Kanaly of Clayton, Y. Y., seaman; Mrs. Cole of Cleveland, cook. The Merrick hud a cargo of about 400 tons of sand and was bound for Lake Linden. The following is tho Uory of the disaster as told by the only survivor beside the captain: "The Merrick had a cargo of furnace sanTT apd wT^~4rcraud—from-- Port- •Auatiu-.ta.. Portage. We left Port Austin with a free wind, the weal her thick and smoky When about lf> miles off Presque Isle at 12:30 a.m. Friday we heard'three blasts from a steamer's whistle. About hulf an hour later the mate ordered me to put the wheel over and let her come up into the wmd. I then saw the steamer about \'i feet from us. She struck us just aft the lorerigging. The schooner sunk under her how. The crew on deck took to the rigzing und went down With the \esscl. I was saved l>v being picked up by a yawl from the Kanne.v. The captain -was saved by a line hcinc thrown to him by the Ranney s c r e w . Mrs. Cole, the cook, stood aft, h< Iding on the schooner's wheel, when the schooner sunk. Kvery passible effort was 'made by the 1J-. nney s crew to save us. Tho steamer's enyines were backing when we caise together. The weather wiis so thick we could sec on.y a short distant o. I think the schooner sunk in from twenty to thirty seconds after being struck. She- went down head first, our raaia boom going over the lUnney's b ;w» as sne went down. We were blowing our fog horn L;11 the time, giving proper sign Ms, which were understood by the steamer. Three of the crev. were below w h e n ' t h e Vessel sunk.'' BAD FOR H O W A R D CITY. Fil'teen Residences and Eleven Business Housos D u m e d . Howard City, Montcalm county, was visited by conflagration on the 19th inst., tho locses falling largely on poor men. The fire broke out in*.u building occupied as a grocery, with living rooms on the second noor, by Caspar Schutt, who with his family, had started for a day's visit iu the country but. a short time before. There was a smart breeze blowing at the time, and in the absence of any fire protection the flames were rapidly communicated to eleven business houses and fifteen residences. An engine was telegraphed for from Grand Rap.d.% but such effective and heroic work was dona by citizens with buckets that the flames were placed under control and the order countermanded. Ugly rumors of incendiarism have been circulated, but are not credited. The losses will aggregate between $."0,- 000 and ¢(:0,000, partially covered by insurance. generalissimo, E. C.

Sinos the reeent publication of the letter received by Prof. Willits, assistant secretary of agriculture, respecting the existence of a machine t h a t will take the flax liber from the sUlk without wetting, the department has been burdened with letters showing a national interest. One of the letters received was from a manufacturer in the northwest who has invested noarly $100,000 in the business of flax manufacturing, which has produced a deep impression at the department. The writer says he has made two tripe to Ireland and Belgium and has seen the operations of the machine referred to, and confirms ail that is claimed. He further agrees with the original writer that the country is on the verge of a great revolution In the production and manufacture of Max. Considerable interest is shown tn t h e correspondence In the success of the experiment of growing flax more abundantly, as a solutiou of the difficulties and burdens which, it is said, is forced upon the farmers of the northwest by the twine trust. The letters say that tho price of twine has been increased by tho t r u s t until it costs the farmer a bushel of oats for a pouud of twine, and they are clamoring for relief. In Michigau the legislature upiwinted a committee to investigate and report upon the expediency of introducing the mauufa.ture of twiue iuto tho prisons as a means of relief, but their inquiries developed tho fact, Prof. Willits says, that the corner of the truBt extended to the raw material itself.

The of thought had, been toward that bord where the natural merges Into the roatural, or at least takes on csrtaiu mysterious characteristics. Probably all such manifestations may be explained by natural luws, and will be better appreciated when the suspected sixth sense reaches a higher state of development; but the uncertainty oi their opinion lends a delightful mystery to their discussion. The evening following this desu ltory leo ture on psychology, my chum Ellen Fay, nd myself threw aside our German gram and lexicons with our lessons half preand in sfidy gowns and slippers our easy chairs to the grate to discuss thor the fascinating study in abnormal ditions of the mind. An hour or more bad passed in conversation, when, with the sort of feeling that make) children cresp close to the brightest spot by the fireside after a recital of some thrilling ghost Htory we drew a little closer to the fire with a side glance at th3 half-open door, and the long corridor outside. We sat silent for a little while when El len said in a slow, dreamy fashion: "Yes, it is very strange." "What is strangeJ" I questioned sharply. ' Ellen started. "I thought yoj were speaking of Mr. and Mrs. Kimball," she said, looking at me with strangely brilliant eyes. "I was thinking of them," I replied, "but I did not speak. . I was thinking how strange it is that so handsome a man should have married a woman so exceedingly plain." Ellen turned pale. •'Were you truly Mattic!"she said. "I know, now, that you did not speak; but that thought was, somehow, presented to my miDd as clearly as if you had actually spokken." This was bringing our p\vcbolo?y studies too near home. I shook off tho little shivers that were trembling down my spina, and rushed to tho half open door, shutting it with a bang that sent the echoes trembling down the silent hall. "Come, Ellen, let's go to bed. You look like a ghost, and I certainly feel lixe one af- .ter such an unearthly evening. I believe I prefer normal to abnormal manifestations, myself," and I bustled aroand with unusual energy to make preparations for retiring. Ellen aroused herself, too, an! we h a ! soon disposed of ourselves for the night, as we supposed; but we both lay re3tles3 and wakeful, not daring to talk lest we should revert to tho fascinating subject which had already unnerved ns. The night was a still, soft winter night, ?ith a full moon shining upon the spotless snow. We loved to lie with the moonlight streaming into th:> room, a n d ! knsw Ellen's strong nevvos must bo unusually tense wiien she said fretfully; ''Can't you draw the blind down, Mattie, I can't sleep in this insufferable light." I reached out for the cord when she sat up in bed, her o.yes shin in-JT, her nands cold and the vibration of a tremendous willpower in her voice. "It's no use MiUtic, 1 must go. I t ' s the very height of absurdity, bat I can't help i V "Go! go where?" I asked, all my sharpness and latent common sence aroused. "Somebody wants me down tho re near tho bridge. I must go, Mat tie, I must go " I remonstrated in .vain. J did not soften my opposition with any sympathy for her ridiculous notion. My will was the stronger and I could usually persuade her into my way of thinking; but to all my arguments die made no reply. She got up and began to dress. "1 wish you would go with me. Mnttio," she said coolly. "You know I am such a coward." I was dressing, too. u* fast, as my irembling fingers would let mc, for I am free to confess that my nerves had completely surrendered. "I'll go, of course, if you go," T said, "but I'll refer the preceptress to you for explanation, if the faculty get hold of this escapade." Ellen said nothing in reply, but brought out our cloaks, overshoes a.nd long hooded water-proofs from tho ciosj*. In a few moments wc were creeping stealthily through the halls, with our hoods drawn clos? around our faces, and thick veils ready to put on when we exchanged the darkness of the corridors for the brightness of the moonlit walk. Wc made our exit through a small, private door, opening into the kitchen garden, and wc were obliged to climb tho high, close fence surrounding it to get out into the street. Muffled up as we were it was not s s ^ " i r ' performance, but wc finally aecomshed it. co upon the street we walked rapidly silently toward the little bridge which ien spoke of, a slicht structure thrown t'neross a ravine, which a few rods below, opened upon the river. As we reached the bridge we saw a man coming swiftly toward us. Ellen seize! my arm with a clutch that loft its mans for several days, but I was too excited to feel the pain which such a grasp must have occasioned. Wc dared not turn back and cot;!.' only mcot what .scorned to us. at that moment, an awful destiny sweeping down upon us. Tho spot was an intensely lovely one busy and populous city. Behind us ;he college grounds quiet and deserted, \ the angular buddings rising told and •bidding among the leafless trees. Jn lay a immuv, gloomy street while nt rur loft, the dark liver roared foaming between the rows of great factories and mills. No policeman war- in sight, not a creature llisturbed tin? silcuc? of the mklu'ght except rur trembling selves and the man coming toward us with such reckless haste. He did not soo us until quite near and then halfstopped with a muttered imprecation; but quickly collectod himself and walked rapidly past us». Tho moonlight fell full upon his face tor ;bo mouic.it tun4, ho stopped, and Ellen's grip upon my arm tightened. No wonder. It was Mr. Kimball. We walked slowly until be had turned around a corner, out of tlcht, and then we turned and ran like • pair of frightened rabbits. We clambered over the kitchen-garden fence with more haste than dignity, stole in through the little door and crept like a couple of sneak thieves up to our room. "I am glad we are out of that scrape," I gasped. Ellen smiled a peculiar smile, "And 1, too," she said. We went to bed again, and to sleep this time. The next morning the sun rose as usual; the cold gray of the morning toned down the high coloring of tho midnight adventure, and the ordinary routine of work began again with nothing out of the usual way except that Ellen and I both answered "unprepared" in German. The professor looked at us searchingly over bis glasses. Whether or not our faces betrayed any unusual emotion, I cannot say, but I know my heart was throbbing In a very erratic manner. It was our secret, that escapade. Sometimes we met Mr. Kimball and his wife, for they see mod to be inseparable, and Elleu would flash me a glance of mock tragedy from her black eyes. We even gave a name to the little episode. We called it the Strange Experience and then abbreviated to "S. E.,"to the mystification of our friends. I3y and by our college days were ended. We soparated and the strange experience passed out of our minds and lives. * « A dozen years later Ellen Fay, now Ellen Thompson, came to make me a visit The slender, big-eyed girl had developed into a handsome matron. Much of whaj. we used to call "spirituality" had vanished from her face, but it had gained in strength and repose, and she was the same genial, delightful friend as of old. One evening we denied ourselves to all our little world, and safely hidden behind the portiere of the stuay, we thought we could devote ourselves to reminiscences. Both our lives had been very full and busy and the present had so fully occupied us that we had not spared an hour to those dear days of our early friendship until this evening, when we deliberately barred out everything and everybody, determined to devote this time at least to our college days. Ellen very nearly filled the great easy chair, but her slippered feet upon the fender still slender and dainty, suddenly recalled to me that evening when we sat in that same fashion, by the fire in the "Ladies Dormitory" of C College, and talked about "supernatural manifestations. I laughed quietly to myself as I inquired: "Ellen, do you remember tho "Strango Experience;" Ellen smile! ever so slightly and then looked sober. "It is the one thing in my life that I cannot understand," she said. "Did you ever hear the sequel J" "The sequel! No. indeed. Is there a sequel'" Tasked incredulously. "Yes, there is a sequel, a n ! a very remarkable one. You may call it a coincidence, if you like, but I must confess to have felt a sort of creeping sensativn when I heard it. About two years ago I met a Lady at a dinner party whose face seemed strangely familiar but whose identity was completely lost. She was dressed plainly in black and her hair was quite white although her face was not old. I ' w a s so tormented by the half-knowledge of her face that I asked our hostess to present mo to her. " 'Ah, you noticed her. She certainly hr.i a rcmarKablc face, and her his'ory corresponds to it. This iTThe hrst'"t!me~8Ti"e~1ttBr come out since her husband's death.' " 'Her lace S3em3 familiar, 1 think I must have met her before.' • 'By this time we had reached her. She was the center of a brilliant and animated group and appeared to be the leader in the conversation. Her face was a study. It made me think of a battle-field where the cannon were half hidden by the spring flowers, and the graves wore seen only as green undulations. At the first availab'.o opportunity my friend presented her as Mrs. Kimball. Instantly I. knew where I had se^n her. We talked a Utile as people do at such places a n ! then parted, with tin determination on my part to itnow her better, "My friend had certainly described her face in calling it 'remarkable.' You know we used to thin'.c her very plain, almost ugly. In fact the 'strange experience' hinged upon our simultaneous thought in that very particular." Ellen laughed a httio and then went on. "She did not seem to mo nearly as plain as I had rememberel her. Her gray hair softened the effejt of her face, I thinlc, ami that alert, suspicious glance that used to s^ amuse us was quite gone. She had the chastened look of one who had com? up through greit tribulation. I foun! her quite accessible, indeed, glad to mak: new friends in a strange city, and when she found that I had spent four years in C she treated me like an old, familiar friend. She was usually quite reserved, but she gave me her confidence with at least no con scfou* -retort on my part to gain it. Naturally, .- felt interested in her, particularly ns wc yvis used to speculate so much about hot - n ! her husband, and I supposed 1 may ;» roll confess to a little curiosity nt the y.i\ cm; but as soon as I had learned to know !;«)'. i loved her to.} well to wish to pry int.i ner socrets. Little by little, however, sh3 told mc about herself. I will condense the story for you." "You needn't," I answered. It is as interesting to me as a 'tobe-continue;l-in-ournext.' "~ Ellen gave her shoulders that little deprecating shrug that used to be so charming when she weighed1 a hundred pounds or so, and went on with her story. "Sho was an orphan and an heiress. She had been educated on rather a severe plan, and her education instead of softening her angularities of face and disposition, had intonairled them. All tho latmt nobility of her nature was smothered in tho oppressive moral atmosphere in which sho had b»nm reared. An ill dispositioned relativo had impressed upon her mind from her earliest youth that no man would ever marry a person of her facial and mental obliquities except for her money, and she was exhorted to be thankful that providence had not altx*- gether forgotten to provide her with an attraction. Naturally under such assurance she avoided society and hated men, and looked with suspicion upon any friendly advances. Sometimes she hated her money and laid plans for founding some great charity with it and then retiring into obscurity. Sometimes she gloried in it becaus3 it gave her power—the only power she was ever likely to know—and once she forgot it." Ellen contemplated her last sentence with the complete understanding of a woman whose married life had been much more than the fulfillment of the hopes of her betrothal. "Yes, she. forgot it, and herself. She forgot that-she was plain and angular and unlovely. She knew only that she loved and was beloved. One man had penetration enough to see through the reserves with which she had hedged herself about, and to discover a sensitive, loving, noble nature behind this environment They were married. Unfortunately, her husband was poor and handsome, but they lived a whole year in Paradise, and then the serpent introduced himself. "One day she overheard a pretty little woman exclaim, 'Heavens, how could so handsome a man marry so ugly a woman!' Her husband heard it, too, and turned to her with some laughing remark upon his lips, but he did not utter it. 'No doubt I looked ugly enough at that moment to have jUBtitied any comparison,' she said. Sh« became morbidly unhappy. She Insisted upon their leaving home and seeking new associations. Then they came to C—. Her husband cared for her with the most tender affection, thinking this sudden change must be due to some derangement of the nervous system. He consulted physicians. Those who were Bhrewd enough to discover the truth, dared not tell him their conclusions. The demon of jealousy was aroused and all the peace offerings made but added fuel to the angry flames. She had given all. It was the one dariDg venture of her life and she deemed that it had failod. She told me that it was simply torture for her to cross the college grounds with her husband, for all the girlish faces they met so Constantly confessed an involuntary admiration of her husband, and a surprise at the contrast with herself. How well I remember, when she told me that, how the girls used to 'rave' as we said in those days about the handsome, darkbrowed man who never even glanced at any of us, and whose mind was evidently far enough away from his own perfections, or the admiration of a lot of silly girls. " What her life was at that time I suppose only a strong, passionate nature like her own can possibly comprehend. I hope I may never know." Ellen gave a little shudder. "Her husband's life was as wretched as her own. His position laid him open to the suspecion of having married her for her money, and I suppose there was no cruel, bitter taunt that she left unsaid. Talk about a hell," said Ellen reflectively. "It does not seem possible that there can be a much worse one than two natures line Mr. and Mrs. Kimball's arc capable of making for each other. "So things wen t on from bad to worse until life became a torture for thorn both, and one night her husband, who by the way must have certainly be?n an exceptional man, for the hrst and last time was stung into replying to her cruel words. He left the house in a white heat of anger, and told her that she need never expect to see his face again, that she might reserve her suspicions for someone more worthy of them. She followed-4rtffl,-tHHveriug under ilia pas.-., sion, not daring to cajl after him; her heart filled with a terrible fear. Just at the 'corner, in the shadow of the church her strength gave way. She could i. it spoak nor move, but her whole life was < oncentrated in her eyes, as she watched Him going to the mad surrender of his unhappy life. Her whole soul was in an agony cf supplication for so:ue one to stop him, to save him, and jU*t then two dark figures came in Bight. A flood of tears relieved the intensity of her feelings. She felt that she was saved. She saw her husband hesitate as the two passed hira. She saw hira stop again at the end of the bridge where the little foot-path lei down to that torrent of roaring waters, and t^.en go irresolutely on, and then she crawled back to her desolute home. "That w;;s the last she knew for many weeks. When.she came back to the world upon whose threshold she had lingered so lonir, her husband sat beside her. When she was strong euough he told her all. How the two dirk robed women on the bridge had cause! him to postpone his dark intentio: L how a walk of a block or two had brought him into the companionship of a belate! acquaintance. How his better judgment came ba"k as tho heat of his passion die 1. an I he ha! made some excuse for his untimely appearance, and had consented to pass the res* of the night with, his friend, an i how, in the early morning a messenger sought him out, saying that his Wife was very sick an! Knew no one; how, through those long, delirious weeks he had learned that th.» bitterness of her jealousy was but the excess of her love, and how he comprehended for th.3 first time what her life ha I been and what his love had meant to her. and then-there w.t3 pe.ico between them. Even when death parted them «he ecu id say that it was less bitter than tuat first terrible experience. 'He is mine still,' sne says with that quiet assurance that one canmt doubt." Ellen leaned back in her chair and crossed her plump, white hands. "Did you tell her your part in what camo so near being a tragedy ?" I asked. Again Ellen shrugged her plump shoulders. "No, I couldn't;" an I then with a little laugh, "It was a case whore the sublime was terribly near the ridiculous, and—with my avoirdupois—" I laugnod with her, but only said: .- "Thero se -ms to be no occasi on to change the name of our little adventure."—Milwuukes Wisconsin.

T H E C O U N T R Y PARSON. m i . , . H a W o r k s t h e " S o l d i e r of t h e L e g i o n " G a g o n H i s D I a o o n a l C o m r a d e . T h e parson of a country c h u r c h w a i lying in hia bad; three months' a r r e a r s of salary was pillowing his head; his couch was strewn with tradesmen''s bills that pricked his sides like thorni, and nearly all life's common ills wore goading him with horn3. T h e deacon sat beside him as th.3 moments ticked away and bens his head to cutch the words his pastor had to say: "If I never shall aride from this hard bed on which I lie, if my warfare is accomplished and it is time'for tu3 to die, take a message to the »ection b3- fore I pa3s away; tell him fires are /or December and open doors for May. Tell him when he lays the notices upon the pulpit's height to shove them 'neath the cushion, far out of reach and sight. And when h e hoars the preacher's voice in w h i s p e r soft expire, t h a t is the time to slam the door and rattle a t the Are. And tell the other deacons, too, all through the busy week to hang: their boots up in the sun to hatch a Sunday squeak, with steel shod cane to p r o ! the man who comes to sleep and snore; and use the boys who laugh in church to mo;j the vestry floor. There's another, too, the woman who talks the sermon through; tell her I will not mind her buzz—my hearing hours are few; tell h e r to h a n g her mouth up some Sunday for a minute and listen to a text, a t least, without a whisper in i t And tell t h e board of trustees not to weep with bittsr tears, for I can't be any deader now than they have been for years. And tell half my congregation I'm glad salvation's free, for that's the only ohanca for them—between the desk and me. And a farewell to the choir—how the name my memory racks! If they could get up their voices as they do get up their backs—why the stars would hear their music and the welkin would rejoice, while the happy congregation could not h e a r a single voice. But tell them I forgive them, and oh, tell them, that I said I wanted them to sing for me—when you're sure t h a t I am dead." His voice was faint and hoarser, but it gave a laughing break, a kind of gurgling chuckle, like a minister might make. And the deacon he rose slowly, and sternly he looked down upon the parson's twinkling eye with portentous frown, and he stiffly said "good morning" in he went off in his Ire, for the deacon was the leader of that amiable choir.—Bob Burdette in Brooklyn Union.

A Goose K?eps Guard For a Cow. In a recent number of the Christian Union I read the article "A Kitten at School."' It brought to my mind an incident that came under my observation while spending a few days in the family of a relative in Seymour, Ind., last October, In that city, like most of the Western towns, the hogs and cattle run at large through the streets. One noon as I was leaving the house with my friend, he called my attention to a cow and a goose near the cow. A quantity of refuse from the kitchen had been thrown into the gutter, which the cow seemed to eat with a relish, and close by the side of her stood a large gray goos;?, as it seemed to me, doing guard duty for the cow. While this cow was eating throe or four other cows came up from behind, but the goose would not allow them to come near h e r cow, but drove them away as they approached. This is not all about this goose. I was t^ld by my friend that about two years before sho went with this cow she attended another cow. H e r first pet died. The goose left her former home after that and attached herself to this cow, which belonged to a family living some distance away. I saw her. one or two days aftor this occurred, by the side of tho cow, and so fearful t h a t some one m i g h t injure her or h e r mate that sho would attempt to follow you with such demonstrations as only goose can make.—Cincinnati Enquirer. A GREAT DISCOVERY, Apparently Hamltss Symptom* Prevt to bt a Mint tf Dmgtr. Some Scientific Facts which Aro Arousing the Community. The True Source of Heart Disease tad Apoplexy Made Pub lie. A T e r r i b l e D a n g e r T h a t C a n B e R e a d i l y Avoided. HOW IT M A F B E DOHE. There is no fact now more certain than that sudden deaths are not caused by heart disease, apoplexy or paralysis, but by other infirmities of which death is only the final stage. And physicians and scientists ail agree that rheumatism in some one of its many forms Is this cause which has stood in the background so long and caused so much misery. Any man, woman or child troubled with the slightest muscular rheumatism is in danger, and a danger from which instant escape is imperative. A man, well known in this community, awoke with a feeling of pain in bis muscles. He took a cold bath, thinking the reaction would drive tho pain from his system. It did drive it from his limbs, but it went to his heart and before night he was dead. This is only one of many similar cases. They all show the necessity of driving rheumatism, which is a blood diseaee, out of the blood, and for this purpose no modern discovery has ever equaled Hibbard's Rheumatic Syrup. Mr. C. D. Uenio of Jackson, Mich., who was paralyzed on one side, was completely cured by its use, and believes he would have been in his grave to-day if be had not fortunately learned of and taken this great remedy. Should anyone who reads these linea be afflicted even in a slight degree by any rheumatic trouble, we would earnestly warn them against a delay which may prove fatal.

A May party was enjoyed by about twenty-five young people at the residence of Wm. Gardner, three miles south-west of this place, last Friday night. Those who were present report a good time. It would seem that Pinckney is on the right road for a nice little boom this year. With onr new stores added to th« old reliable ones, people will find it to their advantage to come to this place to do their trading.

Last Saturday as Mrs. F. A. Sigler started to her dress-making rooms over Mr. Sigler's drug store,she stepped on a banana peeling, which threw her to the ground in such a manner as to sprain her ankle quite severely. If banana eaters would be more careful and throw the peelings away where pedestrians will not come in contact with them, less accidents would occur. The new store of Shaver & Co. will be open for business to-day. They have an elegant stock of dry goods, and in a few days will have a fine line of groeeries- -and-boote and-shees.—Tlrenrember^ of this firm are thorough business men and will, no doubt, gain a liberal sjiare of trade from this vicinity. Look for their announcement in the DISPATCH next week. The time for holding the noxt Floral and Musical Festival at Detroit, has been fixed for April 22, 23, 24 and 2* of next year. It will be for the benefit of the combined Detroit characters, and held, as before, under the auspices of the Detroit Journal, which guarantee? the charities against loss.

Her many friends in this place and vicinity will welcome her back to her old home after an absence of two years. The Stockbridge Sun was five years old last Thursday. Bro. Gildart has made the Sun shine very brightly since he has been at the helm, and the numerous advertisements that appear in its columns is an indication that it is appreciated by the business men of that place as well as surrounding towns. May the Sun shine brighter than during the past, and if a capable man at its helm will do it, it surely will. While standing on our streets the other day in search of news, and watching the large crowd that had come to onr village to trade, a parcel was handed to us by Jos. Placeway. Upon investigation wo found it to be a hen's egg that measured 2$x3 inches in eircuraferen«e. Of course the egg itself is not much ot a curiosity, but a newspaper that can't tell a good egg story does'nt amount, to much, and the DISPATCH isn't inclined to be left out in the cold. It does one good to visit our flouring mill and observe the vast amount of business that is done in that concern. The custom department is. :orer-run with work and the flouring department is running at full blast to catch up with orders tor flour from different towns,_which is a good indication that this mill has gained a good reputation for excellent $our. Wo strive to warn farmers in this vicinity cf the many swindles that arc being carried on in this state at present. The following from an exchange exposes another gang of' swindlers who are working the unwatchful farmer in different parts of this state: "There is now in existance another gang of swindlers, who are operating through Michigan. They sell apple trees oa the following terms: The agent calls on the farmer to sell him trees. He does not ask any pay for them, but simply desires the farmer to plant them on shares. The agent or his company furnishes the trees, the farmer plants them, and the company is to get half the fruit for 12 years from tim« of planting. The farmer binds himself to keep the trees pruned, etc., and also, if he sells his farm any time before the J2 years expires, he must, pay for the trees at the rate of $1.50 each. For this he gives a bond or agreement as security to the agent for |500, and this bond is registered against the land. The farmer of course does not know this. In course of two or three months another man comes along looking for a farm. He calls at the house and teUfl the fanner his farm is just what ho wants. He has the cash to pay down, and he offers him all or more than the farm is worth. They make a deal, but, of course, before he pays any money down he wants to go and examine the records at the register's office, to which place he and the farmer proceed. They find the bond registered against the place for §500, and the farmer, rather than miss so good a sale, pavB the $500 in order to give a clear"titreS He then looks up Ijis friend who has' purchased his farm, but he is nowhere to be found. He only then learns that ho has been swindled out of his money;1 - « • — • - Common Council Proceedings. REGULAR MSETnfQ. Pinckney, June 3,1889.

MICHIGAN the cost of making the butter is largely reduced. A creamery of the character o^ that above montioned affords an example of co-operative and associated industry of tho most useful and protitable kind. A farmer working alone labors under exceeding gr^at and varied difficulties. His expenses are needlessly quadrupled, his labor is doubled, while his income is largely^ eaten up by the expenses. A very large sum of money invested in aparatus, implements, machines and live stock lies Patrick Egan. . Patrick Egan, the Irish land loagu. er, who has been appointed our minister to Chili, was born in Ballymahan, Longford, I n l a n d , in 1841. While stil a young man he entered tho employ of the National Milling company of Dublin, and was considered tho best bookkeeper in that company. In 1868 together with James Kourke he established »n extensive bakery. He was ono of the founders of the Irish national league of which body he was treasurer. When Mr. Forster passed his coercion act, which rendered everybody in Ireland liable to arrest upon reasonable suspicion, it was thought best to transfer tho league's funds to Paris, establishing headquarters in that city. l i e remained there for nearly two years devoting his time and energy to the Irish cuise. After the release of tho Irish suspects in 1882 he returned to Dublin and resigned his troasuroship. A year Juter he emigratod to this country, settled in Lincoln, Nebraska, whore he embarked in the grain business. Mr. Egan was for some yours president of the Irish land league in America and has taken quite a prominent pavt in American politics. Allusions to Latimer, the Jackson matricide, are of frequent occurance in the state papers, though just how tho things that are reported about him are found out it is hard to say, inasmuch as he has been in solitary confinement ever sine; he has been in prison. It is equally hard to understand what good end is subserved by the publication of these items. There is nothing about the man ••worthy of emulation, and oartamly.tho. history of the crime has been widely circulated and carries its own lesson. Now that he has boon sentenced to pay the penalty for his crime, leave him to his own solitude and reflections, which, indeed, must be the hardest part of his punishment. FARM AND HOME. Deep I ntierUr»|uIng. The fact that it is difficult to economize is most clearly shown by tho coramou attempts at removing a a excess of water from the soil. Tho lirst draining is usually an open surface furrow, which, though it costs little to make, bears off iu tho water it carries tho most valuable parts of the soil. Besides, tho open drain dies not l a s t However well protected its sides crumble down by tho frosts aud floods of winter, and the drain quickly becomes tilled up so as to be neurly useless. If I o r P a , , t o f tbe y^t"*, not to speak of tho the expense of keeping an open drain in good workin,' condition b j considered?!^ will be found much greater than the interest upon a thorough system of underdraining that will never need repair. When underdraining is at last atr templed, the desire to do everything in the easiest way often defeats true economy. Stone and tile drains are laid notcmore' than a foot and a half or two feet below tho surface. Deep enough not to be disturbed by tho plow is often thought to be all that is needed. Frosts go much deeper than plows, and in the northern states no drain is safe if not sunk to a depth of two and a half or even three feet, io^ frosts penetrate the soil more deeply after underdraining than before. It is, however, surface water that pours into drains which does most damage, and if the drain be shallow, surface water will speedily work a channeKdown to it, washing dirt in and soon spoiling the drain. Deep draining is to a great extent a safe-guard against this. As the drain becomes older, the soil on either side becomes more porous and the water courses in it iind their way to the tile. We have dug dr.tins sometimes when the surface soil would be apparently dry, but at a depth of three feet a vein would be struck that would bubble with fresh, clear water, making the outlet of the drain like a spring of water more than half the year. A shallow drain would not have helped such places materially, as it is not likely that the vein would have worked up a foot higher to reach the outlet made for it. A very deep drain does not need so large a tile. M o p water flows through it, but it is a continuous, not a suddvn and spasmodic How. 1'nless surface water flows in soniewlwre, n throeinch main will carry the water from a hundred rods of ditch from what naturally soaks through the ground when laid deeply. It is best to prevent damngo by mice, rats, skunks, and above all mush rats, not to make must not be neglected, as a single plant. If allowed to grow, will cause e x t r a work. The thistlo must never bo allowed to m a t u r e seed, and if the tops are kept down the roots will be given extra duty and fail to spread, p e r s i s - tent warfare, however, Is necessary. H o u » « h u u l d H i n t . . Trifle—Soak epouge cake in wine, pour over* it a boiled custard; pile whipped cream on top and 11avor with vanilla. Cranberry sauce—One quart of cranberries, one pound of granulated sugar, useless and is unproductive the great- J one-half pint of cold watjr Boil fifteen minutes. ' deterioration in value from this dis- j Never throw away cold potatoes, as use. Under the present state of busi- there are so many delicious ways in ness and the general industry, farming is loaded down with a great burden of expenses which prevents its successful competition with other industries. Alone the farmer is . weak and comparatively helpless; but by judicious, effective and economical association with others he is strong and able to contend with any circumstances. This possibility of association in other ways than invented by Jesse Williams, tho lirst factory dairyman, is one of the brightest hopes pT farmers, and the subject is ono that calls for the most careful study and the earliest judicious action of those concerned.—Practical Farmer, l l e t t r r l'enn for Kwlne. Ono of the first requisites to a model pig pen is" t h a t it be built securely and substantially. It must have a roof; if this bo of straw, it will serve well enough. The sides of the pen also may be built of the same material at little expense, and without any sacrifice of comfort., A perfect shelter from the severe cold of winter and the rains of fail and early spring, is one of tho objects sought to be attained, and if this can be done with very slight cost, so much the better. A number of pens should be included in the same shelter, making room for a sow' with her litter and a pen of young pigs. The number of pens must, o f c o u r s e . b e decided by the circumstances of the swine raiser. Besides the matter of shelter, tho question of room should be taken into consideration. As a general thing, the pens of the average farmer are to small, (live the hogs plenty qf_-exor-. j cise, Let them have ,a big roomy pen to sleep and cat in, and a large yard in I which they can root. The pen should have a floor, and should be. kept cleui. The idea that anything is good enough for a hog and that they thrive best when wallowing in filth, has gone out ' of date and been succeeded by modern ideas. We mibt not overlook ventilation in our plans. Foul air is no more healthful for hogs than for any other animals. Plenty of fresh air should be supplied both by means of openings iu front of the pons and the passage way tile does not give the larger of these to the covered .shed, and by a ventilaaTri- ma^-atry-T'httTtrcrttr work-, and it-is- tiou shaft passing out of the top of tho which they may bo warmed over and made into new dishes.

The small Michigan's legislature,might as well adjourn now as to wait until later in t h e season. Better, in fact, inasmuch as tho state will be the gainer, financially, by tho adjournment, and will not be any better if tho session lasts until the leaves fall, at the rate business has been transacted thus far the present session. The legislature is practically in session only four days in a week, and these days aro principally devoted to trying to see what important matters can be tabled or disposed of in such a manner that t h e y are practically of no benefit to the people.

The pigs in clover pui&k^which has netted the inventor so hand~somcJy, has suggested an entertainment which: brought good results to a church in southern Illinois. A church in the southern portion of that state recently gavo a fair in which one of the features was the pigs in clover with live porkers to bo cornered. A large fac similie of the pen was built in the hall, and after an hour or more of very hard work one of the dudes of tho place succeeded in getting the wily porker in the pen, thus earning the reward which had been offered to t h e successful one. also more apt to be flooded with water and for a long time during the year. Thorough Hushing, such as is possible with small drains, washes out many obstructions, provided the fall is good and the outlet is kept clear, as it always should be. Without an outlet there can be no permanent drain. 'J he worse case of poor outlet is where the drain is run out near the surface of the ground, and even here the water cannot get away, but tills up half or more of tho tile. Frost soon heaves this about, choking the outlet and throwing all tho water coming down from above back on itself. In this way the drain fills the land witli water, making the worst kind of morass, until in time the whole drain is spoiled.—American Cultivator. Creameries. The benefit of the creamery to the farmers interested is worthy of note for the instruction of all who are concerned in the production of milk. T h e following example will afford a subject for careful consideration. It is a creamery in Pennsylvania, and is owned by the neighboring farmers.

Not every quarter section is rich in soil, and many expectants who have long patiently hovered upon the border entered with a rush at break-ucek speed to find cunning government employes already upon the ground making claim to the pick of land or lot.

As there are only 360 consulates to be distributed among 7,000 applicants, several gentlemen will be disappointed. T h e applicants for the P a r i s consulate are said not to be so numerous as under Mr. Cleveland's administration, when they reached ^5,000. lt is understood that the present, incumbent will be retained until next fall. In the possession of the first Assistant Secretary of the State is an alphebetical list of consulates, with a blue check against the name of every place for which somebody has been decided upon by the State department, subject to the endorsement of the President. i t is t h e frequeat failure of the Presid e n t t o approve of the blue marks that have thus far delayed the appointment of the entire selection of consuls. The •list is occassionally Hashed on a too imp o r t u n a t e candidate to show him that t h e place is already "mortgaged," but inasmuch as the candidate generally expresses his willingness to accep.t_any other consulute the remedy has no efficiacy. In the speculation concerning the a p p o i n t m e n t ot this or t h a t candidate to the vacancy in the Supreme Court, the u n w r i t t e u law of custom seems to be disregarded. Vacancies have, by this law ponerally be*en filled l.y appointment of a j u d g e of the circuit! from which the last, incumbent was chosen, iii .that way the Stu.ivmc Court becomes ^representative of the Several circuits and...where Si.ite and National laws contlictvsome one can always be found on the bench to expand them from an intimate knowledge. The only exceptions to this rule' grew out of the civil war and the reorganization period. Therefore to appoint Attorney General Miller or Circuit J u d g e . Gresham or District J u d g e Woods will be a violation of a reason- • able custom. If President Harrison follows precedent, he will look for Justice Matthew's successor in Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee or Michigan. Local society is on tip-toe of expectancy over semi-official announcements and rumors of marriage to be, J ustice Horace Gray, he of the handsome face and the renowned hatred for his court brother Lamar, on J u n e Gth, will wed the daughter of his recertly deceased colleague Justice Matthews. Owing to the fact that Justice Matthews has been dead so short a time the fulfillm e n t of the vows that were pledged d u r i n g his illness will be rigidly ceremonial and the witnesses confined to the immediate relatives. The groom is a bachelor of sixty-two years, over six feet four inches tall and an unusually handsome man. Indeed, he is deemed the handsomest member of the Supreme Court. He is of old Massachusetts stock, his ancestors having burned witches and "fit into the Revol u t i o n " in true othodox style. The bride, Miss Jean Matthews is also of Revolutionary lineage, and is a lady of fine abilities. The honeymoon will be passed in Europe and on their return j the couple will occupy the J n - f i c e V fine residence here, a brick reproduction of the N«w England architecture of the colonial period.

By this it will be seen that the legislature has defined, 1. T h . t it can only be used to assist in transportation and for no other expenses. • 'J. That only those belonging to Michigan organisations who participated in the battle and are now residents of this state and not able to meet their own expenses are entitled to the benefits of tho same. Whatever may be my personal wishes or inclination*, these1 statutory directions must be obeyed. As heretofore noticed, this sum of money will be distributed to the different regiments and organisations, and wherever organizations exist the money will lie passed over to them and will be distributed and accounted lor by them, and all survivors of such organizations must apply through the s;;me and as hereinafter directed. W h o e v e r tho amounts apportioned to the different organizations are more than sufli cient to pay the transportation of the members' thereof, tho surplus will be distributed to those regiments where deiicieucies occur.

The latter part was in the form of an agreement and was signed by both himself and his mother. It read that the both had become tired of I k i n g and had premeditated this act for the last live years. The < nly reason that he had not executed his intention sooner was because he wanted to wait until his mother became so sick of living that she would prefer death rather than that of existi nee. They had mutually ageed to take poison and end their lives then und there. The act, he says, was has-' tenet! by tho story of a woman who visited his homo and told about her confinement in the insane asylum at Kalamazoo, when she was insane. He was afraid that both ho aud his mother would eventually end there, and so ho hastened to draw up the compact of d?ath. Jt was poison that they doubtless took at first and when that was not working rapidly enough and his friend. John Gossier, discovered them in the middle of the act, ho decided to hasten the end by the bullet and sharpened wire. The physicians'think thut Mrs. Vcltc may recover. —_»-——. Weokly Crop Report.

Fifteen Hundred Paople Said to Uave Been Drowned, A liood of death swept down the AUeghaney Mountains on tho afternoon of May «1, and at nigut almost the entire city of Johnstown was swimming atJout in the rushing angry tide.

Tho houses boaran Moating down, and clinging to the debris were men, women and children shrieking for aid. A large number of citizens at once gatiiered on the county bridge ami they were reinforced by a number from Garfield, a town on the opposite side. They brought a number of ropes and these were thrown over into the byiiing waters us persons floated by, in efforts to save some p .or beings. For a halfhour all efforts were fruitless, until at lust when rescuers were giving up all hopes, a little boy astride a shingle roof managed to catch hold of one of the ropes. Ho caught it under his left arm aud was thrown violently against an abutment but managed to keep hold and was pulled on to the bridge amid the cheers of the lookers ou. The boy s name is Edward Hess.er, aged 10.

C h i c a g o ' s M y s t e r y . On the 4th of May, Dr. P. H. Cronin, an Irish phyMeian in Chicago, was called ostensibly to attend 1111 m,iirecl person in an ice house, aud disappeared at once from public view. He was reported as seen afterwards in that city, in London, New York, St. Catherine s and Toronto; and an unscrupulous reporter iu the last named city telegraphed ,1 manufactured interview with liim to the papers, lie did not return, however, and a lew days ago his putrefying remains were discovered in the manhole of a s.'we.r afc Lake View, in the suburbs of Chicago, with numerous and unmistakable murks of murder upon the head. That his murderers were Irishmen seems prohablo, as the doctor was a prominent Jiish patriot, and was believed to h a v e d i s (lowed the secret* of .some of the Irish societies. A theory that his death was the resuit of a conspiracy and del.barato vote to kill him is probi.bly sustained by an elaborate confession .made to the authorities by a suspected man named Sullivan. The IVets divulged are not yet given to the public; nut it is believed that tliey will unveil a startling and far-reaching conspiracy, with numerous acces-ories to the crime of Dr, Cronin s murder, aud other assassinations understood to have been planned, but not ,\ et ox ecu ted.

Lake City correspondent of jo Herald writes: " W i t h i>ward none, with charity for Lould bo tho golden rule govwork of those who would write concerning a system in which they do not believo. The old anecdote of the christian Bailor kicking down t h e peanut at m i of the poor Jewish woman because h e r "folks" were ••Christ-killers" is «quite like the cond u c t of many a christian writer in his attitude toward the mormons, jid bo as unjust for a mormon to ;that because tho " a g a p e " love "of the early christians was more lewd than polygamy, therefore present christians are not virtuous, as it is for christians to condemn all mormon women as concubines, all mormon children as illegitimate and all mormon men as rakes The fact is there are no polygamous m a r r i a g e > among young mormons, not even in secret. They are ashamed of the institution. T h e old polygamists hate to give up their peculiar "sin," because for fifty years they have been deluding the people with the story that the whole of mormonism, polygamy and all, was the word and will of God, and must prevail over the whole earth. If, therefore, polygamy isgiven up by the priesthood, the people will not bo slow to see that " t h e Lord" has failed. For this reason every mormon apostle and elder who preaches to "their people" harps upon " t h e persecutions" t i n t " I s r a e l " is suffering because the Lord is trying his saints, and if they only hold out strong in the faith he will see them through and give them the victory. But that is becoming a chestnut among the more intelligent mormons. They realize that tho Lord has already deserted their church or never had anything to dp with it. Then, too, selfishness is getting in its work among mormons as it did long ago among christians. It is. becoming unpopular to be a polygamist, and the young people are not going to buck against a strong and growing public opinion. Tho young men are not going into anything that will destroy their citizenship and deprive them of their right to run for office. When the baldheaded polygamists of Utah have been buried that social evil will have disappeared. Of the masses it must he said in justice that they are as sober, industrious, well-behaved peoplo as can bo found anywhere in tho United States; and, considering what was the material out of which the mormon masses' were recruited ;uid also the fact that there was not a school in Utah until 18(37. it must lxs admitted that tho mormons have made iremarkablo progress in their industrial, and intellectual development. * They have swung into tho American stream of progress; at.-lea-it their young people have done so, and there is not power enough in the priesthood to force them back and down again into that state of subjection that e x - isted while Brigham Young ruled them and coerced tho refractory with the deadly arms of the Destroying Angels. In 1878 Young was indicted by the grand jury for murder, committed, not by himself, but by his Dahites, "by order of the authorities," as tho notorious Bill Hickman testified, ho himself having "removed" several persons who had become obnoxious to Bingham. But t h a t state of things has gone forever. Young was a tyrant, and he has no successor. He can have none equal to himself in authority, because the, peoplo have been compelled to suspect, at least, that "tho Lord" has not had much, if anything, to do with their Zion. In fifty years the mormon hierarchy, tithi n g , endowment house and celestial marriage for all eternity will bo things , ;.of the past, just as Jewish polygamy tj&e early christian "agape" love arc things of the past. But then, Hflfow, there will be many curious things in tho history of Mormonism. Among thorn will bo the statement of "Times and Seasons" in 1814, a fow weeks before he died, that "The Lord has ordained hira (Joseph Smith) a deliverer and savior to this generation." At that very hour six apostate Mormons wera planning an exposure of J o e as one of the most corrupt men of World's history, and soon tho "savmurdered for his crimes. taf the richest curiositlos of Moristory is tho manner in which pOTygamy camo to be established. " J o e , " jolly Joo, tho "prophet, seer, and rolevator," had become so outrageous in his relations to the wives of his saints that a few of the more courageous men protested against his conduct and threatened to make trouble for him. Then ho went behind tho veil in his private o.'lleo nnd "got" made a "revelation," in which " t h e Lord," in a targe number of sections, established celestial or plural m a r r i a g e ; directed " E m m a , " Joe's wife, to behave herself and accept h e r new sisters with good g r a c e ; instructed J o e to multiply and replenish and build up Zion rapidly, and promised to " s t r e n g t h - e n " him for his work. All this was issued with the "cheek" and " g i l l " of a pirate ; the timid objectors wore silenced ; most of them were forced into the iniquity themselves and only two or three held .put, and, as I have said, these finally killed the " p r o p h e t . " But the coolness with which Joe resorted to the trick and the quick wit of tho fellow in catching up a scheme t h a t would at once silence his opponents and license his vice in the name of Cod was one of the wonders of the age. A curious allusion to Joe's capers in Nauvoo is found in " J e d d y " Grant's sermon in "tho T a b , " in 18-34. He says: "Did the Lord actually want Abraham to kill Isaac? Did the prophet J o s e p h want every man's wife he asked for? He did not, but in that thing was the grand thread of tho priesthood developed. The grand object in view was to try the people of God to see what was in them." One of the mormon pillars- of Zion is the art, or "gift," as the priests would have the people believe, of prophecy. One of tho curiosities of the present, and one that will increase, is the vast accumulation of unfulfilled prophecies. It is safe to say t h a t of all the prophecies made by the heads of the mormon church not one has been unmistakably fulfilled. The nearest they ever came to making a case was jolly Joe's prophecy, made in 1833, that a war should begin in South Carolina, but ho did not say when, save "in these latter days," and he did say that it would continue until the United States government was destroyed and tho whole land came into and under Zion. It was a lucky guess, therefore, based perhaps on his knowledge of the state where Calhoun was hatching the treason of state rights. Among their prophecies none are so common as those relating to the triumph of Zion, or mormonism. Said one: "While water runs and grass grows, while eternity goes and eternity comes, mormonism will go on, knowing what is written in heaven, published on earth and muttered in hell, that mormonism is eternal truth and God Almighty is the author of it." Another said: "The timo is coming when one shalt chase a thousand and two shall put ten thousand to flight. When will that be? When Isreal is united. If all the people were absolutely, with all their hearts, to pull upon one grand, thread they would have power and dominion over tho wholo earth. All the men and devils in hell or the earth or anywhere else could i not make a successful opposition against us." Young nod only came to believe in himself us a divine being destined to dying, dying, dying. In the g r a v e of Brigham Young, beneath a rough granite slab weighing six or eight tons, lies the mouldering skeleton of t h e power of mormonism. As long as Young lived it was possible to control "this peoplo." But while his successors may wield something like an equal despotism «ver the new converts that arc brought in from the slums of Europe, those who came here with Brigham nnd those who have been born and reared here have become too much impregnated with the atmospheric germs, so to speak, of American independence to come quietly up and put their heads under the yoke of a new king whom they have known as a "devil" in the endowment house, perhaps, or as a dealer in town lots, or a peddler of celery, cauliflower and pork. The mystery, the glamour, tho awe that hovered inside of those walls that Brigham Duilt around himself out of tithings wrung by the force of tyranny out of the poor creatures who hud come to Zion on promise of plenty, peace and "holiness," have all gone. W h e r e King Brigham went and came at " t h e Bee Hive" is now a nest of offices, and on the door t h a t swung before him as if by magic are now crilded signs of coal, stone and transit companies. The king is dead and no one cries, "Live the king!" Brigham's successor, Taylor, never dared to show himself in public as president. He died "on the underground," and is now at rest beneath another six-ton sl':b. The present president has been until now on tho underground, and he, too, will soon be lying beneath a granite slab. With him dies the original apostleship. He is the last man living of the twelve N B W M E X I C O ' S H E R O . T h e T r u t h A b o u t "Billy t h e Kid," W h o F i g u r e d In S o M a n y " P e n n y D r e a d f u l s . " T h e r e has been more written probably about "Billy the Kid," says a Santa Fe letter to the New Y o r k Herald, than any other murderer who ranged the vast plains of New Mexico, and yet pratically nothing was ever known about him before he came to this territory. It is said that h e was once employed at the Palmer house in Chicago as a waiter or bell boy, where he frightened a guest into tits who had ventured to remonstrate with his style of doing things. He was the embodiment of malignant cruelty, the despoiler of homes, a murderer by nature, and a foe to law, order, und society. At the same time the possessor of these traits was a singularly handsome youth—he was but 23 years of age when he was killed eight years ago—with an open, pleasing countenance and mild blue eyes. His hair was as soft as a girl's his form slight and well knit, and his voice agreeable. Rut one feature suggested the animal, and that was his mouth. His lips never closed over as beautiful white teeth as were ever seen in a human head, and when he was angry t h u characteristic gave him a tigerish expression. Few men have lived who were entirely devoid of mercy. " T h e Kid" was one of them. He had no love of home or of human kind. He deliberately chose to be an outlaw, and held the friendship of men as lighter than the pressure of his finger upon the trigger of his Winchester. It was his ambition to become the leader of a who held the keys with jolly Joe. The i band of outlaws, and this ambition was rule the world for God. but he became a believer, strangest of all, in his own religion—a fanatical believer. He told the people one day in "the T a b : " "My religion is first and foremost with me, and I will send it to all the earth, to President Tierce, whether he retains me as governor o f Utah Territory or not, and whether 1 Should bo president of the United Suites or king of Great Britain, or Sionareh of all the world, my religion and my God arc first and foremost with me. My kingship, my presidentship and all shall bow to that eternal priesthood which God has bestowed upon me. 1 have been governor of this territory ever since it has had one, and in all my official transactions I have acted in accordance with the priesthood. I never will infringe upon it with anything I may operate in' my ofli.ee." Young, though a fanatic in his religion, was a man of great executive capacity, and his will was indomitable. Had he lived a thousand years ago ho would have been a nation builder. As it was, had not tho Mexican war occurred, resulting in the cession of all this mountain land to the United States, Young would have become the head of a mormon Mexican nation, even if he had been obliged to fight his way to the throne by' the aid of destroying angels and other assassins. The man was a tyrant. His word was law, and disobedience was often followed by secret and silent murder. I can fancy a savage having many wives, becauso a chief may have become enamored of new faces. There would in such cases be, at least on one side, ail attraction; but in mormonism (and I have learnod it from those who have "been in polygamy") there was very little of love, and, therefore, tho marriages were nothing more nor better than a wicked farce in the name of God. It was kept up through fear of Brigham Young. There never was a viler imposition upon ignorant difpes in all this world. .. But polygamy has hud its day nnd is promise was t h a t they should none of them see death until the kingdom had come. When tho people get this strangest curiosity of the modern world digested their faith as mormons will melt as melts the snow en. the southern slopes of the Wasatack range at high noon. I look back over the history of this wonderful psychological phenomenon and behold on one hand the power of a few strong minds manufacturing opiates of superstition for the mass of ignorant, submissive, mindless dupes on the other. I can see the leaders, the key-keepers, those high priests ordained of God, in their secret conclaves behind these high walls, stretching their cheeks in i n f e r n a l g r i n and demoniac laughter at the rem irkable success oi their trick and scheme ; and were itd not that there have been some desperately bad things connected with their I game 1 could laugh, too, and heartily, over it all us a huge joke. As it is, i even this must be said, that with all its ! evils mormonism has been a positive ; and busting good unto hundreds of j thousands to whom no help would ever havo come had not the mormon tramppreachers gone into the cellars, the alleys, the ditches, the slums of the I world, aud-CTcuitcd the atiimal^isTfncfr of the stuff they found with the prom- : ise of a home in Zion, where they j should have lands and houses and .opportunities to become rich and great. It was the starting point of life for them, They could not havo been in worse condition than they were, and they are to-day —a majority of them— fairly well to do; all are vastly better than they were befoi'e they became mormons—I am speaking of the people, not the priests—and they are growing fast toward that mental freedom that will make them American citizens, owing allegiance to no priesthood on earth. I look into the faces here of many wrinkled old foreigners, of whom nothing can be expected. They are conattained. He ravaged sections of this territory and for years escaped arrest. When at last he was apprehended tho authorities were astounded to see a beautiful youth in the person of tho fiend upon whose head so heavy a price had been set. In jail his ferocity asserted itself. By means of a well laid plot two of his men succeeded in gaining entrance to the place where their leader was confined. A revolver was given him and the three marched out to freedom. But "The Kid's*' appetite for blood must be appeased: he was thirsty for revenge as well, and on the way out he shot and killed both of the guards. His aim was unerring and he rarely shot twice at a man. except in a spirit of watonnesss, for the lirst bullet usually did deadly work. The famous Lincoln county war was "The Kid's" opportunity and he did not fail to prolit by it. This was a feud of the most deadlj* description, and when " T h e Kid" concluded to take a hand in it blood flowed in good e a r n - est. It did not matter so much to this young outlaw who was killed just so it was some one. He had no friends he desired to protect. How many men ho killed with his own hand none of our Men of every sort and condition joined in the hunt, and nearly every pursuer had a grievance. T h e r e was not a crime in tho catalogue of w h i c h " T h e Kid" was not guilty. T h e relatives of some of those who were after him had been the victims of his revolver; others had female relatives who had been led astray or forcibly c a r r i e d off; some had lost eattle, and o t h e r s property of various kincUj m a n y were actuated by a desire to get the reward and achieve the notoriety of having slain the most remarkable criminal of which the southwest could b o a s t T h e territory was alive with m a n - h u n t e r s and " T h e Kid" was kept busy avoiding them. With the members of his g a n g d e a d , his old haunts closely watched, and no human being willing to befriend him. the outlaw turned his face toward Mexico, the home of the renegade. Wherever he stopped for rest or r e - freshment the inmates were solemnly warned t h a t instant death would bo their reward should they dare to give an intimation of his whereabouts. But even at such a trying time his jauntiness did not leave him. He was as fastidious in his dress as before, and his manner was that of a gay, lightrhearted wanderer who bad no care on his mind. He knew death was on his trail and was always prepared. He knew, also, that he would be shot from ambush, for there were none of his pursuers brave enough to face him in open fight. There was every chance against him, and his only hope was to reach the Mexican border. Then a strange fancy seized him. A half-breed ranchman had a beautiful daughter of whom " T h e Kid" was very fond, and so sure were the authorities that the fugitive would sooner or later round up there that they made an a r - rangement with the ranchman, who hated " T h e Kid" cordially. Ho was to giv3 notice when the outlaw arrived and his reward was to be great. True to his agreement he notified Sheriff Garrett that " T h e Kid" was at his ranch and the intrepid officer made preparations to kill the man he had so long sought. It was not a.question of capture, for the outlaw had sworn ho would never be taken alive. v. The day of his death " T h e Kid" was strangely uneasy. He felt something was to happen and two or three time* gave his host notice that he would kill him, for he felt he had betrayed hira. The old ranchman was frightened almost to death, but swore hi had given no notice to the authorities. Garrett had arrived the night before and was concealed in a room waiting for a favorable opportunity. 'The Kid" inspected every room in th i house until he came to this one. He opened the door, a revolver in one hand and a knife in the other, and as he crossed the threshold asked in Spanish: " W h o ' s t h e r e ? " The reply was a pistol shot and " T h e Kid" fell dead. Garett was liberally rewarded and has been the lion of the territory ever historians will pretend to say. The number doesn't matter particularly. They were killed in all sorts of ways. Some were shot in lights, others were slaughtered in cattle stealing raids, and yet others were wantonly murdered with no sort of provocation whatever to justify them, even in a country "and at a time when men killed each other for ^ cross word. On a horse,dressed in Mexican garb, with trousers richly embroidered and coat of the richest material, " T h e Kid" was the idol of the girls and the envy of the men. Beneath his wide-brimmed sombrero his handsome face, fringed with curling hair, was a pleasant sight to see. A fearless horseman,he was at home on his animal and* never seemed to know fatigue. He would cover any since. tent with their faith and believe what j n u m b e i . o f m i l e s f o i . t h o privilege of is told them by those in a u t h o n t v . , .... , , \ Thev are simple-minded, honest. i n . killing an enemy.and onee he made up dustrious. people.

There are m;my reasons why tho gentle sloping hillsides have boon denuded of their original growth of timber sooner than was for advantage in any point of view. Tho bettor drainage of uplands makes them more desirable for building as well as for tillage. Cities may bo built low down near harbors and navigable rivers; but t h e country farmhouse is more apt than not to surmount a hill. As it has its orctiard and some ornamental trees uround it, t h e farmhouse hill is not entirely barren, but it is not such a reservoir to feed springs on lower levels as it was when covered thickly with trees in the original forest. Now that in many places the low lands have also been cleared, it is found that much more wood land is necessary. The question in replanting is which shall bo used for forest, the longer cleared hillsides, or the elevations on the lower lands where the trees have recently been cut down. If the house, farm buildings and orchard are on the elevated parts of the farm, the general tendency will bo to put the wood lot somewhere else. Hut even in such cases the wood lot is not so much of an injury to tin; vicinity of t h e farm buildings ;md orchard as we havo thought. TI13 treeless condition of much eastern farm land makes the sweeping winds cf spring, fall, and esby a proper degree of boat and a certain amount of moisture, and that t h e soil bo in a state to* permit tho roots of tho plant to run through it to meet o r reach these materials that a r e to support tho plant; also that t h e atmosphere may permeate it, for it is from the air in the soil that the plant obtains much that is as essential a s tho ash i n - gredients. Kvery farmer is practically an agricultural chemist, and his success depends greatly upon the scientific rneth-" ods he employs in his work, for, although h e may have no idea of analysis or chemical combinations or compounds, when he adds fertilizers or stirs the soil as experience hus shown him is necessary, he is only carrying out tho same ideas the professional chemist arrives at in his laboratory.— Practical Farmer. p l e n i p o t e n t i a r y to France in tho first j peeially of winter, much moro severe half of the century, and Colonel Al- j than formerly, in a great many apple fred London Rives, h e r father, was orchards the fruit is regularly blown born in Paris, and h a d Lafayetto for godfather. One result of the agitation in favor of a shorter work-day is eoon in t h e passage o* r.n eight-hour law by the legislature of Indiana. Agitators, however, should bear in mind that statute laws will never bring about a shorter work-day. T h e courts in a number of states have repeatedly do off before time for gathering, and its value is thus greatly lessened. If wo had more forests crowning our hills, peaches and other fruits formerly successfully grown could be planted and cultivated with profit.. But the conclusive reason w h y the uplands should be moro generally planted with trees is that this is t h e only possible way to keep land fertile, 1 ! and make the farm as a whole proiitable. 1 he side hill under cultivation clared any law unconstitutional which j gullies and washes its vegetable matter interfered with tho right of individual contrast,'and a law for the shorter day can only bo made applicable to employes of the commonwealth. Labor will never secure shorter hours until she hits herself devised a practical plan for putting the schemo into operation/ Without injury to the employer or the vast multitude of workers. How this- is to be accomplished with the least amount of friction is the great problem of the day. Public sympathy is with the workers in their demand for moro time for rc>t, recreation and intellectual development, and fewer hours of unceasing toil. But to retain that sympathy and accompanying inlluence organized labor must be careful to take no step n o t warranted bv into creeks and rivers or over adjoining valleys. No farmer trying t> cultivate his entire farm can find manure enough I to make it profitable. With wood lots covering elevated land on his own and neighboring farms, their fall of leaves will furnish a slight annual dressing of vegetable mould. T h e low lands will need drainage; but it will be all the bettor J o r the farmer than they do. Under-drained as they .should be their vegetable matter is less likely to be washed away, and fertility is much more easily preserved. There are exceptions to this, of course. There are locations neareitios where special crops that will not bear long carriage may be grown, and the manure needed to grow thorn be furnished from the city or villago whore they nre markete.l. But we believe justice, and especially must care be "'j large sections of h l l i 7 c ^ u n t ^ " m a y " b e taken to.avoid the commission of any j profitably kept for growing wood and j o n b T a few times wrongful acts.

Its origin is probably in a fungus growth attacking leaves and branches. Horses should never be hitched to shade trcos in front of the house. Ordinarily they will not bo if good hitching posts are provided. But where such danger is apprehended, the tree may be certainly protected by putting a coil of barbed wire around the tree spirally and filling in tho interstices with common wire. Horses with propensity to grn.w trees will soon tire of tackling this. Not only must furrows be laid out straight, but they must be kept so by turning a furrow of even width across the field. The careless, slovenly plowman who lets the plow jog in and out does less work and poorer work. T h e different width of furrow makes tho team nervous and uneasy as the plow alternately pulls easy or heavy, and this is more trying both to man and team than steady pulling would bo. No matter how largo the dairy, the churn should not be proportioned to it. Frequent churning is the greatest secret in making good butter.

Police Justice Haug of Detroit believes that t h e convicts in our state prisons and ho.isesof correction ought to be set to work macadamising t h e roads of the state.

T h e highway tax, now paid largely by the. honest farmer, would be considerably lessened, too, if all the state convicts were set to makin^ better roads." A growing plant is in itself a complete chemical laboratory, analyzing the soil in which it is planted, and selecting Trom the constituents whatever is necessary for its sustenance and growth. The work to which the agricultural chemist devotes himself is, therefore, to examine tho plant for the It is probably true that there arc limits to the successful growing of Southern com in the far north, even for ensilaging. It is sometimes argued that though it will not get beyond the green, succulent stage, this makes no difference in the silo. But it does. Corn that will make a crop of ears, and that is early enough to ripen them, is the only kind that should go into a silo.

He instituted a service of daily weather reports, out of which our present Signal Service system has grown, and on tho basis of this enterprise, as Mrs. Morehead relates in h e r book, Professor Hegry once remarked to h e r that there was no question in his mind that '-Professor Espy should bo regarded as the father of tho present Signal Service of tho United States, his 'Theory of Storms' having led the way to its establishment and present success.^^Professor Henry added that the charts now used in tho service were identical (with somo modifications) with thosa that the "Old Storm King"1 constructed for use in the Meteorological Bureau of the War Department when he war. at its head. A similar acknowledgement was made to Mrs. Morehoad by (Jeneral Myer. Professor Espy was for several years a regent of t h e Smithsonian Institution, and was brought into close relations and friendship with Professor Henry. On the occasion of his death Professor Baehe pronounced his eulogy in the Board of Regents, and the regents passed tho customary resolutions in honor of his memory. One of these resolutions describes him as "one of the most useful and zealous Giant Glaciers of Alaska.

Domestication of the Buffalo. Regarding the buffalo as an animal well worthy conserving, what a r e h i s good and bad points? First of all, h e is hardy, not liable to disease, and on the plains of tho American and Canadian Northwest he can forag3 in deep snow and live in tho open air all winter long.

The tale of a Boston man and the money he settled on his wife is rather interesting, it is suggestive, and it possesses that quality which to small minds seems to add to the value of any narrative—it is true. Mr. M., a Boston broker who indulges in speculation, and as a consequence is of uneven fortunes, on one occasion came to his wife and said: "Here is $50,000 in bonds. There are ups and downs to my business, and I want you to have something to fall back upon if anything happens. Now, you are to draw the interest on this, and you may spend it or save it, just • as you choose; only don't give it.to me. If I come to you and ask for it, no matter what I say, don't you let me have it. You just hang ou to it for yourself and the children, and don't let me speculate with it." The wife, with proper gratitude, took the bonds, and for a time nothing more was said about them. Mr. M. in time had a run of hard luck, and just at the time when he was on the edge of a serious financial vexation a friend,who was on the iuside, gave him a "straight tip" by which he could have made a brilliant investment. Casting about fur fuuds which he might embark in a speculation which promised so well, Mr. M. remembered his wife's $o0,- 000, and requested a loan of them for a short time that he might deposit them as collateral security. His request WAS met with a quiet refusal. At iirst he thought his wife was jesting, but he soon found out that she was in serious earnest. He represented the unusual advantages of the scheme in which he wished to embark: he talked of the "tip" and of the enormous returns promised. "But you told me wherk you gave me those bonds," Mrs M, replied, "that I was not to let yuu have them, no matter what you »aid. You warned "aae against just this sort of thing." Mr. M.

Thai money is safe where it is, and it is a safeguard against want for you and the children. Don't risk it. Don't let me have it the next time."

" What fun, it is to be ip! I am glad now that mamma "t let mo go to the Rogers ball in the I t ' s a groat deal nicer to have my own toe. very first, and not—Oh 1" with a sudden scream of delight, as tho turn of the landing brought into view the hall below, lamp-hung and flower-festooned, with oraugo trees and white budded laurestinc.i veiling the corners; and screening the musician's stand, a till bank of waxeu fair and roso-rcd camellias, to which Cousin 1 and tho gardener wore at this momt i n g the last touches. All these had been evoked sinc3 Eliio we at ira for her preparatory nap. No frfehe cried " O h ! " fairyland! It is too beautiful to bo t r u e ! " she called down over tho balustrade. ''JuBt so," responded her cousin from below—" quite t-K) beautiful to be true," looking admiringly at tho slender vision in fleecy white as it camo sweeping down, and noting each point, the dimplod shoulders, the tender bloom, t i n fluffs of golden hair which played round that sweetest face, in which child and woman soomad to blend so wonderfully. "Well, Elsie, I call that welgot up. What! three bouquets! How are you going to m a n a g j with them all, may I ask?" "Do I look nice?" said Elsie, twisting her head round to survey her train—that long incumbrance which to hor imagination seemed the visio n badj/e a ul diploma of young ladyhood. " l a m ° <y.l you like my dress, Cousin Robert. And isu't it fun?— about the bouquets, I moun. They all came while I was asleep. This bi;j one is from H a r r y Blunt. Did you ever sea such a monster? He must have cut every flower in his mother's greenhouse And such a note as cams with it! 'Dear Elsio, wear these for my sake.' Now, Cousin Robert, imagine my wearing such a thing!" "It is rather like a prize cabbae-e," remarked Robert, surveying tho hugu boquet with a critical eye. "Well, who sent the others?" "This one I am really proud of," said .Elsie, dimpling with satisfaction. "Major Strange scut it, and it's exactly like Uio bouquets which all the other giris have, and makes me feel really und truly grown up; only it i; n pity that none of the flowers have any stems, And 1 hate those wires; Ihey look so cruel,"' "And the third, which you are holding so tiiTht!" "Now 'that one really is remarkable," said Elsie, blushing not u little. "Mamma Would hardly believe it. See how appropriate it is! all white rosebuds, with just this little border of heliotrope to give it tolor. So appropriate—don't you think to?" "Highlv npproririutT to a child's funeral'" temarke 1 her cousin grimly-. "You needn't show tho card: 1 know t!io follow." "J don't believe you guessed right at all," pronounced Klsle, wavingthc card triumphantly above her head—" 'The Kev. Cyril Forsythe.' There! Did you ever? I know, *f cours ), tnat it's all meant as politeness to mo and mamma, but it's &reat fun all the samo. Houquets, and engaged already for tho german! W h a t will come next.' Cousin Robert, what if 1 should h.>v» an offer!" ,TDo you plilTacTiTarTy-\\^iI~omrTo~-"n7gnT,' IlidKOtJ" "Oh, DO, not to ni^ht; but some aay, I \1dnk, it would be nice to have one. Now Vhat nhall 1 do with my flowery? I can't 4»rry them all." "It's rather lik) coats to Newcastle to je^ve yon another when you can't dispose oi' / t r o s o you have already," said Robert. / "Still, here's a posy which I had brought you myself." "Charming."' cried Elsie, throwing her .fragrant load on a table and seizing the t e w y m a s s o f scarlet bloom which he held o jet. "You always hi: on juat the nicest tl.ing. These are tho only ones that look at all well with my dress. Sec!" holding the flowers against her snowy bodice with groat effect. "Mayn't 1 carry these. Robin dear?" eoaxingly; "1 like them so much the best." "Robin dear" demurred, though ho kissed the little gloved hand us a token of gratitude for the preference, i t was finally 'settled that all tho bouquets should lie together on a little table, and that Elsie should give oa.'h an airing in turn during the evening. With an inaudiblo sigh, Robert Baird watched his darling as guests arrived, and the music began to sound from behind the camellia screen. The soft, round cheeks •*"»•loved grew rosier; the sweet, delighted '-•JOT glowed with excitement; Elsie, his y ^ : fijMttici treasure, was fairly launched on "'•§f ' flfeMJPr but treacherous sea oi society and V ttvJpfM of loss and deprivation seized his The old homestead, of which he was jr.int Owner, had never looked upon a prettier seeno. Outside, the moonlit piazzas wero sweet with honey suck ID, the gardens beyond twinkled with Chinese lanterns, a TOSH the soft dusks and shadowy vistas forms in white flitted, gay laughs hroive the dewy silences.

Was this tho way in which clergymen talked to young ladies! How nice it was! i She aad been a little afral I t h a t he would ask her about hor soul, and Elsie did not know much about souls a» y e t Still, she was a practical little damsel, and having gazed up at "heaven's arch," and seen only the piazza roof, she ventured to say, "Didn't you ever care about dancing, Mr. Forsythe f" Ho looked down Berenely at her from his height of six feet two, but did not seem offended with tho question—only saintly — which Elsie noted with relief. "Not very much," ho answered gently. "And my time Is so full of other aad braver duties t h a t it is no small matter of regret to roe that the Church has sot tho seal of her disapproval on such pleasures in the case of her ordaiued servanti, whose life-work is. or should be, solemn and engrossing." " I s there really a law agaiust dancing, then?" asked Elsie, timidly. "Not for such as you. To a liir young life like yours, such amusements, when partaken of in moderation, are natural and harmless. And for myself, there are rainy compensations—the privilege ot ministering to tho aged and sorrowful, of ijburing Iheir Joys and consoling their griefs, and, sweetest of all, the close relation which I beur to my flock." Elsie murmured an a s s e n t S h e felt a little as though she were in church. Still, it was undeniably gratifying. " Y e s , " continued the low, fervent voice, "it is a world of contrasts. This evening X am here, sharing in this seene of gaiety amid all tha t makes life enjoyable This afternoon 1 spent by the bedside of a dying woman, glad to fold her tired hands and after the burden of life, even though she left her children to struggle on alone. 1 hope I was able to support and strength "Oh," interrupted Elsio, " t h a t must have been poor Mrs. McCraw! Is she really dying? How sorry I a m ! Mamma took me there the other day. Mamma is going to tak. one of the children to keep i\i a housemaid, and she hopes to get littU Jenny into the Homo. Oh, I am sorry Mrs. McCraw is dying on the very day of my party!" "Yes, dear Miss Baird, it is a world of contrasts, as I said, Death and life, sickness and health, poverty there, luxury here, and heaven over all." "I am so sorry," cried Elsie, bewildered. "I can't help i t l a m young and happy; o? I was before you talked so," she added, with a little pout " B u t I don't forget that there are sick and poor people, and mamma never does. She is as good as she can be to them; really she is, Mr. Forsythe." "Indeed, dear child," in a tender tone, "I know it well. Your mother is one of my most precious helpers and friends; and I would stake my life that you, in your maiden bloom and happiness—which Heaven forbid I should in any way seek to shadow—will also give yourself to every good and holy work. I have watched you grow up under my eye a polished stono of tho temple, and no fairer vision has ever been granted to cheer mv lonely life. And, Elsie," he added, still more softly, "there is no hope so dear to me as this—forgive mo that I speak of it; J cannot refrain; the wish is too near my heart— tnat in the futuro, which seems at this moment so near and so fair, you may forever lean, as now, on my arm. Suffer me to lead and support you. Come and brighten my home with your lovely presence, and be to me the best gift G^d ever bestowed oa man." Elsie drew her hand away and stared at the youug divine with frighteued eves. "An'ofTor!" she crie 1, breathlessly. "Ara you making me an offer."' —L\W.Ua£-iiLsiLJ..:aaL_cJi with some heat. "And in return will you tell me " "Oh, please don't—please." she cried, i.i horror. "1 don't know anything about sued things. I'm so little—so young, 1 mean. Mamma wouldn't like it. 1 know she never allows me to talk about offers." "Angelic dilTidence," replied her tormentor. "You are right. It is to your mother that I should have appealed. Yo\i permit,, then, dearest, that 1 slioull make hor t h / judge between us, and come at another time for my answer! You can whisper it' in mother's oar, in the shelter of mother's arms, can you not, little startled bird^Saall it be s->, then ?" "Oil, yes, y e s ! " cri?d Elsie, frantic to es cape. "Mamma will tell you a^I about iL Don't say any more to me." Off she dashed out of the/star-lit, ror«- scented evening, into the protection of tho glare, the crowd, little recking of the long, Dlaek, tightly-buttoned fijfure, with clasped hands and eyes raised to "heaven's arch" which she left behind. She was prettier than ever, with her flushed cheeks ami shy, dazzled eyes, and wa's seized on at once by a series of expectant partners. Daneo succeeded daneo. Young Harry Blount, sulking in a corner and watching his rivals with'a pair of glowering, jealous eyes, suddenly gave a great start. He saw Elsie lay down the white bouquet, which had affected him as scarlet affects a bull, take up his flowers—yes, his!—and carrying them in her hand, approach his lurkingplace. She made a saucy little courtesy and said: "Mr. Blount, I believe this is our dunce." "Elsie w h i t a fool I a m ! " cried tho. boy, ready te> kiss her white slippered feet in his revulsion of feeling. Have I really been hanging about here like a tramp, and forgotten t h a i ! " "You really have, H a r r y , " replied tho little belle of the evening. "You hnvo neglected me shamefully, and I feel dreadfully about it. Now to atone, don't let us di\nce at all, but just sit down and rest. " Tl.on, noticing a look of blank disapjwintmeut she added quickly, "Or, rather, let us havo a short walk and thon go and hide somewhere, and have some coffee—if mamma isn't looking, that is." "So we will," said tho delightol Harry. "T know of a capital seat—on the south piazza." "Anywhere else," crie t Elsi \ "I hate that pia-.za. 1 never want to see It again." " T h a t ' s a good one, when you've been there half the evening with that parson! Did lie bora you At drealf.illv. pan- little Elsie! 1 always knew he was a prig." "Mamma likes him," responded Elsie, demurely. "Ami so do 1 in the p u l p i t " The t w o children—for they w e r e little more—enjqyed their walk, and t h e n sought a refuge behind the curtains of t h e deep bay-window in the halL Elsie s a n k back on the cushioned seat with a sigh of fatigue, too w e a r y for more than half attention to H a r r y ' s talk. He w a s paying her outrageous compliments, she vaguely t h o u g h t but she was used to H a r r y ' s nonsense and she idly picked his boquet to pieces while meditating on her late extraordinary interview with Cyril Forsythe. Suddenly she came to herself. H a r r y had taken b e r hand. When? She didn't remember. Had she been half asleep? Ho wa$*saying in a Btrangely agitated voice: " I know they will all eay we are two young, but I think that's the best of i t It is lovely to begiu young, to spend our whole lives together; und 1 a m almost ready for college, and after that 1 shall step right into the business, and very soon there will be plenty for u s both to live on." Elsie stared. "Why, H a r r y , I don't understand you. What are you confiding to me? It sounds like a love uffair. Who is the devoted damsel who is to wait till you get through college, and have something to live upon?" " E l s i e , " cried the mortified H a r r y , "you are perfectly unfeeling." "I am not unfeeling a b i t But, really and truly, who is it? You haven't told me her name." "1 thought you understood m e , " said the boy, humbly and bitterly. "You looked so pleasant, and never said a word to stop me. Of course you know that I never cared a button for any girl in tho world except you. I've been waiting ovor so long for the right time to speak, and to-night you looked so stunning, somehow, and so kind—Now, Elsie"—.pathetically—"den't tease me any longer, but telt me that you will." "Will w h a t ? " " W a i t for me, care about Be, marry me some d a y , " blurted out the luckless lover, appalled at her changed look. " H a r r y Blount," said Elsie, awfully, rising in h<3r majesty to the full height of her five ieol fcivo, " I never was treated so in my life. You have all conspired to make me perfectly miserable at my first ball." H e r bosom began to heave. "If you say another word of the kind I'll never speak to you again;" and with blazing eyes she swept away, leaving her boy-lover crushed in a heap behind tho curtains, and wondering whether noose or poison were the speediest way of getting rid of his wretched existence. After this the eveniyg was a weariness, but supper came at last, and following supper the germau. Here things took on a brighter aspect It was impossible not to enjoy dancing with such a partner as Major Strange, hero of all t h e g i r l s in the neighborhood; and when at the close, Elsie, a bewitching paner cap on her pretty lioad, little flags and ribbons fluttering from various parts of her dress, and her curls laden with flowers, stood exchanging gay good-nights with the departing guests, she was ready to allow that life was not all a burden or balls a failure, and that being a grown-up young Jady, though it might have its drawbacks, had also its advantages and indisputable joys. In the midst of her contentm cnt, however she became aware of a form hovering outside the door, a face of tnute, reproachful wretchedness, and her heart smote her. Slipping from mamma's side, she m a l e her way to poor Harry, and put out her hand. *M->o forgive me, H a r r y , " the vvhis|K'rcd. *'I was perfectly horrid, and am ashamed of myself; but you don't know how much I've had to vex me this evening. Shake hands, and let us be friends again, just as wo used." Under tho gentle, pleading eyes Harry's rancor amUmisery melted in a moment, and "hope sprang eternal" in his breast, for ",usf as/vo used" meant a great deal more 'to him.than to Elsie. He nearly crushed ; the small peace making hand in his vigor- ! o'.:s grasp, and Elsie went back-smiling and | relieved, only to meet another hand, a terribly expressive pressure, a pair of es'es bent j ^npon her from an immense heigh', and to / h e a r the fervent murmur: "To-morrow, | early to-morrow, I shall see you, Till then good-by, and Cod bless you, Eisie, my best trec.suie !" { Elsie grew white as a ghost. Really] \\ as t o m o r r o w really to bring this dreadful fata upon her! H a l she promised without knowing it! Could nothing save her! | " E l s i e ! Elsie!" cried somebody, and Elsie i flew like wind out of the room. She had no i courage left to face c^es and questions. " W h e r e on Garth can the child b e ! " queried I Mrs. Baird. perplexed and annoyed, as the j last ge.est departed. "Robert please see if you can find her, while I attend to having the house shut for the night." ! Robert's eyes were keen. He had watchl e d the fluttering exit and went straight to the piazza. Nothing was visible at the first glance, but a little sob smote upon his ear, and making one stride to the darkest corner, he lifted up a poor little white heap and saw ELsic's face, wild and wet with tears. "Elsie, darling, child, w h a t is the matter!" "Oh, Robin, Robin dear! do t a k e care of me," cried Elsie, hiding her face in his breast. Don'fc let that hateful man come to morrow and tell mamma that I like him. 1 I never did. I hate him." " W h a t man? Don't cry so, m y pet. 'Nobody shall tease you so long as 1 am alive. What man was it?" '"Oft, you know—that man t h a t sent mc that ridiculous bouquet." " H u r r y Blount?" "No, no," cried Elsie, with a half-hysterical giggle. " H e did it too. H u t I soon made an end of htm. It was the other horrid ere lturo—Mr. Forseytho, you know. He declares he'll go to mamma to-morrow, and she'll be to displeased with me. Ho'll tell her I said I would marry him, and its a story. I never did, and I hate him and his church and everything about it. Oh, what shall I doJ" '"I' 11 settlo that young man," replied her cousin, cheerfully. "And I'll talk to roam- •*na. So don't fret any more, little-heart So you had your wish to-night, EUsie—four bouquets and an offer." " T w o , " corrected Elslio, with a sob; " t h a t ' s ridiculous Harry,;-*'' Cousin Robert laughed aloud. "Oh, dou't--ptteoasly. "It w a s all so horrid! B u t I a-:ti yuitc comfortable again, cow t h a i I have you to take care of mo, Robin dear. There's nobody like you. If 1 had only had hold ol this good old coat sleeve all the evening, none of these unpleasant things would havs happened. Oh Robin, do devise some way so that I need never go out of your sight again. I hate being a young lady. Offers, indeed! ' As if any man in the world wero worta your or mamma's little fiager! Can't you arrange it so that I need never have another offer Robin if" Robert stooped suddonly and kissed the little upturned face. "There is this way. darling," he said; "I'll make you an offer myself, and if you say 'Yea,' no one else e^rer shall." " A r e you in earnest? Do you really mean that? Isn't it just because you' feel sorry for me? For really and tr^uly—though I never thought of it before—this is just the one thing in the world I should like." "Do you really mean t n a t my darling?" cried R o b e r t unable to believu in his own good fortune. "Of course I do. There never could be any one in the world for mc to care for as 1 do for ycu. It is just perfect. Mamma and you and I, on and on, exactly as it has always been, only a thousand times better." Five minutes later and Mrs. Baird appeared on the scene. " W h a t is tbe matter.'" she exclaimed, in a premptory, agitated voice. "Elsie, how you look! Are you ill?" " S i t down, Marian," Baid Robert, holding out a warm, brotherly hand. Out by no means unloosing tbe little clasping arms of his newly-won treasure. "I will tell you all about it. This poor little thing nas had a horrid time. She never wants to ^o to another ball, nor to church either. She b3S had four bouquets and three offers; she has accepted them all. and now she doesn't kuow what to do. So the long and short of it is, you will have to give her to me." Tableau! " B u t she is so youn?!" queried the anxious mamma, a«, the first shock over, the pros and cons began to troop before her mind's eye, much to the advantage of the p r o s - " s o very young, and she has had uc experience." "Oh, yes. I have—terrible experience this very evening,' protested Elsie; "and 1 never ex|>e<a to feel young again." And with her mother s laugh the compact may be said to have been sealed.

The horse broke loose from the wagon but could not get away from the thills, in thi.s manner it ran nearly a mile with \\>r thills hitting its heels at every jump. When stopped it was pretty well bruised up. Such places in the highways should bo looked after. wees we are unable to pu ... standing of the pupils of the Petteys ville school.

In compliance w i ' h the request as expressed in a resolution adopted ut a reunion of the surviving members of the Michigan cavalry brigade, which was held at Vioksburg September 21, 1S87, the funds apportioned to the four regiments composing that command were used in the erection of a brigade monument. As the brigade fought as one command and upon the same field, being the extreme right of t h e union line of battlo on July 8, it appeared to the commissioners both appropriate and fitting to mark the Held by one monument instead of four.

In the year 1S74, Joseph Ra.vmound and Robert Whit el y were engaged by Air. Herbert Caddington, a well-to-do farmer of central Illinois, to sink a twenty-foot well. They had got tho well finished and were coming out of it for the last time. Jo- eph Raymond being the first and Whiteiy closely following, wheu the ladder gave way in the center. Raymond,-who was almost to the top, seized a four by four joint that was stretciied across tho top of the well, and Whitely caught hold of Raymond's knees. Tnoy Lung in this position from six o'clock until half past eight shouting aad calling for help until they were hoarse, l i u t no help came. They had given un all hope of being rescued, and had come to the conclusion that they would soon have to drop. Raymond's hold was slipping, and his knees were pinned closo together by Vv'hitely's arms. Every time they spoke or made tho slightest movement it would give motion to their bodies, and this mado it still harder to keep a hold. At length when it seemed they could •hold on no longer, Whitely addressed Raymond; "'Joe," ho said, "do you think you could get on top if I'd let f o r ' "Yea, tJob-,'' said Raymond. "I think I could/V '•Well,1' said Whitely, ''hero goes then, Good-bye, Joe, and may God bless you."

Of course that estimate dons not include the suiuller boroughs, but they would not run tho result above my figure. I think the greater number of bodies have been recovered." J. U. Clark of Altoona has at last consented to turn over tho prdofa of his directory of Johnstown. By means of this it is hoped to form a complete registry list and jventually a full list of the dead. This is ;o be p u t upon tho state records as there will be endless litigation following the Johnstown disaster.

As Mr. Gladstone w a s passing through tho town of Wudebrldge, in Cornwall, ou the morning of J u n e l.i, an attempt was made upon bis life. A live dynamite cartridge was thrown by an unknown man at the distinguished reformer's carriage, but it failed to explode, and did not bit the occupants of the carriage. For a few miuutej Mr. Gladntone exhibited great nervousness, but rapidly recovered himself and ordered the carriage to proceed. A large crowd uulckly gathered and the excitemeut became intense, but the pol.ee authorities set diligently to work to-find theuaiscro n t and the assemblage dispersed. T h o police are confident that tho man intended to destroy Mr. Gladstone's life, a* the cartridge was of sufficient power to blow tho carriuge and horses to atoms.

It has been de dd^d that instead of culling an extra session of the Pennsylvania legislature to appropriate $1,001),000 for sanitary purposes a plan should be adopted whereby tho state treasurer could use tho amount required and be guaraateed by the citizens of the state in the event of. the , next legislature failing to make an appropriation of money expended in t h e work. Tho bond which is to bu given by Governor Beaver to State Treasurer H i n t will not be binding until signed by ::00 individuals or corporations, each guaranteeing tue paymout of ¢.5,000.

New Era, May 1"). The .people in this section have been speculating in Louisiana State Lottery tickets for some time, ana have received several good premiums and on one or two occasions large ones, but the town was struck dumb when it was found that ticket No. W,074, drawing the first capital'prize of $1300,000 iu the April drawing, was he'd partially by a party in Halletsville. It is often said that luck falls to' the unworthy, but interviewing Otto Von iiuseuburg, the happy possessor of one-twentieth part of the ticket, we find It has fallen in the right place. He is an industrious young merchant who has beea hero but a short time. his native home being Kound Top, Texas. The ¢13,( 00 received by him will be partially used in his business; it establishes him on a firm fin^uciul basis. It has not turned his he.id, and he will u'so his new found wealth with sense and discretion for his own advancement and t i e furtherance of his interest iu the public welfare. B e has been investing in one ticket each mouth in tho Louifcian i State Lottery lor about two years, and he thinks the amount cxpende.l was well invested. The Louisiana State Lottery company is a thoroughly reliable institution, as was evidenced in this case. Mr. Kosenburg sent his ticket lor collection to Ball, Hutchins & Co., of Galveston, and it was paid upon presentation without any di-.count. Sullivan Released. Alexander Sullivan, the man arrested for complicity im t h e murder of Dr Cronin of Chicago, has been released on 30,000 bail, which w a s promptly furnished by four wealthy men of t h a i city.

There is no ream or gum in the varnish, and once having become dry it is capable of standing he.it and damp without undergoing any change, neither hardening nor becoming st.cky.

Tbe heart of the true-blue Republican government clerk is heavy when he looks at the list of promotions in his bureau. To say that he is sad and astonished is to put it too mildly. Ue is hotter than Pennsylvania avenue's asphalt pavement on a July afternoon. "The neutral shadowy people get all the preferment," said an old Treasury chief to me yesterday, a man who long ago reached the length of promotion and therefore ha^uo private jealousy in the matter. It was expected that Republican hold overs belonging to doubtful states who did not go home to vote last fall, would be dismissed by this administration, and they were liberally promised that fate. Now tho tables are turned, and the men who carried water on both shoulders are on top. To my positive knowledge, a Pension Bureau clerk recently promoted to |2,"000 per annum not only failed to go home to New York to vote last fall but discouraged others from going, teHiftg them their presence at the polls was nrot'exactly necessary and in the event of Democratic success would cans?their discharge. The nest morning after the election this same man wore a Harrison & Morton bad ere eix inches long. / A mighty dispute goes on in the local press over the question of the right of Sunday papain to exist, Exactly what is to be gained by the argument, the disputants, it is safe to say, do not know, but their zeal is none tho less great. Incidently the inconsistencies of the local Sunday laws receive attention. .For instanco, one can buy soda water but not beer, cigars but not matches, milk or bread but not butter or sugar. The panorama may exhibit its painted wonders, but the theatre must close. Ice cream saloons doa lout the vanilla, but mint juleps are tabooed. You can hire a team at the livery, but the public hacks must not stand at their regular places or an) where else, the hackman must keep from the better side of the avenue as if he were an unclean animal. If ho even mutely implores you to hire hivehicle as he drifts slowly by you, he is liable to arrest. On Monday morning ho and bio brother may drag you Jiucklcn's Arnica Salve.

Especially slow to scare, Washington has-yet been rather stirred up by the local floods, the water haying been higher during the recent inundation than it had ever been before, except in two or three February floods when tho ice was gorged. The danger ehietiy apprehended is from the choking up of the river with Hat improvements. Eight years ago, when the proposition to reclaim the Potomac ilats t/iok form in Congress, there were not wanting those who protested against tlie pUns adopted by tho army engineers. It U asserted that tho scheme of "filling up a tide river to make room for tho volume of great floods1' is not feasible. The opinion of chief Engineer Severson is quoted. He savs, in substance, "There is but one proper way; that is to reopen the Washington channel fully and so improve all south of it as not to diminish its capacity for carrying off the water of great floods. Any diminution of the conductive capacity of the channel must inevitably endanger city property and the greater the contraction the greater tho danger. 1' The truth is thai it is about time to return to tbe good old fashioned respect for the powers of nature. The invontive race lacks modesty. We defy natures laws successfully may be hut hardly safely. The President has ordered that Sunday duty in the army, other than inspection parade without fire arms, be abolished.

Tbe time so long waited for by the reading world has come when The History company would allow the incomparable historical series of Hubert Howe Bancroft to be broken and sold in separate sets, and it marks a period in the history of literature. Thousands who have desired to possess some of the volumes, but did not care to buy them all can now be accommodated, greatly to their own benefit and the benefit of the country. The manner in which Mr. Bancroft accomplished his unique undertaking is generally known to our readers—bis in-gathering of material from the four quarters of the earth; his expenditure of tbe best thirty years of his life and over a million of money; the erection of a building specially for the accommodation and preservation of his priceless library; the writing of his history, etc., etc. Had not this been done this history of Alaska never could have been written. The country should be proud of the man who has done this, unaided and aione, and should patronize his works liberally, as well from motives of patriotism as on account of their merits. „It-isfa most fascinating study tpJollow this author in his labors. "The whole story," says tho British Quarterly Review, "Mr. Bancroft has told with much force and eloquence and impartially.'1 The New York Nation declares that "especially good judgment has been shown in balancing conflicting authorities," while the Sacramento Record-Union says that "in gratifying tho desire to add to the treasure-house of the world's knowledge, wo are indebted for records that will endure as long afi thin countryman A Close CaJI.

WUhia ffe* f ast ten years associated <lairyU|pjfcKs been largely developed in ^ *U Uud older dairy regions, and has iul&^ QfMk new territory where dairying l ^ p P k fcpeome an i m p o r t a n t industry. f JMjipAfoted dairying, of course, implies V Jfcupauuiacture in a single creamery of the milk produced in a whole neighborhood. Many of those establishments handle large quantities of milk daily, but the majority, perhapi, are of about 10,00J poundj capacity, and oven then do not r u n ail th<s time. The larger the establishment, if it is run tr t o ite capacity every day, and econom- '. f ^ f f r managed, t h e smaller the ex- |Qp*e of handling a given quantity of ttttk. One hundred pounds is generally taken as the unit in calculating tho running expensas. *A creamery or cheese factory handling 10,000 pound* per day will do so at an expense of about 3 cent* per unit, or under exceptionally favorable conditions of 2 cents. But the actual 5xp0n.se is near 12 cents. This appears to be a low cost for the work done, and it is, inasmuch a s the same amount of work on the average dairy farm, costs from three to five times that sum. But a small neighborhood or individual creamery may be operated at an expense nearly as low as the large r one. For instance, in a neighborhood or on a farm where the milk of from 100 to 300 or .500 cows can be brought to a creamery, with a modera t e expenditure of time and expense, it may uuder s s m c circumstances, bo manufactured at a cost not to exceed six or seven cents per 100 pounds. Suppose a water power to b3 situated in the neighborhood. It may be utilized to run a creamory as easily and efficiently as to drive any other sort of manufacturing machinery. While such a source of power is available it will be much cheaper than a boiler and engine. In many parts of t h e couutry a wind engine or power will do all the work required in operating a small e r e a i m r y and do it nearly every day in the year. This sort of power is cheaper than steam, but perhaps requires more attention in proportion to the amount of work done. With the employment of a Cooley or similar apparatus, or the separator, which does away with the necessity of holding the milk for creaming, or cans or vats in which to keep it, tho investment expense can be quite small, and the operating expenses can be, kept within tho limit of six cents por 100 pounds of milk handled, if the mess, averages say :?, UOO to 2,.)1)0 pounds daily. In the small creamery skim cheoso making should not be contemplated. The milk is worth more to feed to stock than, under average circumstances, for making hard or medium skims. This is a question that may bo studied and discussed in many neighborhoods where largo associated oroameries have not been established. Half a dozen neighbors can combine their issues and start a small creamery, a n l by doing so remove the dairy work from the household, m a l o a better average class of butter, and got more money for i t The economical management of a. large or- even medium cream ery is found to be a matter of great difficulty in most instances. The small one, especially if it ba personal property, is usually so much bettor managed as in the end to bo more profitable Practical Farmer. v * K e e p M o r e lAre S t o c k . It is the skilful use of opportunities presented by a given farm that enables soma men to save themselves a good deal of hard work, at tho same time accomplishing quite creditable results on farms whore, in the hands of men less skillful, but meagre returns would /»be made. It is not alw;iys the sort of farm stock a man would fancy that fthoold govern in the selection, for * % man has preference for cattle, ' fcot having a cattle farm. The •MM is true in regtwd to sheep, and if a man has a desire to increase the stock upon tho land, while it is, all things being favorable, best to keep Such as meets his taste, and that in tho breeding and care of which he is bo>t informed, still he haa it within "'his power to improve his knowledge of animals that ho has not "bred, while it is ontireiy out---of his power to U n d e r a rbu#h, hilly farm, h a v i n g a thte_.fOil^aiid consequently a scant tttfMf "of grass adapted to growing Jtm^J cattle. I t is equally true that, the fancy being for sheep, ho can not t a k e up this line of stock husbandry and carry it on with succoss upon'" a rich bottom farm, or flat, rich land of any kind, especially if moist Henca t h e question comes up, whether there are portions of this farm that tho stock kept upon avoid and are seldom seen u p o n , on which some feed is going to •waste. If so, then clearly he Deeds to add another sort to the farm, and straightway set about looking up tho characteristics of that sort. He can not level the hills, putting fertile bottom lands where thsy stood, but he can put dheop on the farm, opening all the gates to pasture holds, and the sheep will quickly find their favorite feeding ground, and this will be upon the hills aud about the rocky places where there is a mixture of weeds ,and grass. By this sysism he can add'^O his income, hardly perceiving t h a t ho has added to his expenses. —Practical Fa rmer. F a r m N o t en. It is well to keep a sharp lookout on the currant bushe3 as soon as tho leaves begin to start. The c u r r a n t worm in some seasons is earlier than others, and if not checked in time may do great damage. Powdered hellebore dusted on the bushes whon the leaves are wet with dews will promptly destroy them. T h e r e is no danger of its poisoning the fruit The stable is best made in the basement of the barn, and then it should always be of concrete cemented with water lime. This cannot leak, and thus saves all tho liquid m a n u r e , which is worth as much as the solid excrement, if not more. The cost of replacing plank floors, beside the loss of liquid manure through them, will soon more than pay the expense of putting the barn on walls and stopping these wastes. It is a groat mistake to supposa that cows which get a bite of fresh grass early will not eat hay. The dry feed is necessary so long as they will eat it. Young tender grass is full of water, and h*s too little nutrition. It scours cows fed on it exclusively, and not only lessens tho milk yield, but causes tho cows to grow thin. Feed something dry, if it is nothing better than straw, and supplement its deficiencies by grain or oil meal. In any flock of sheep one should be a cosset, made a pet of, and trained to come at call. If a lamb has lost its mother or is disowned it will £>ay to bring it up by hand, keeping near the houso until grown, and giving as great a variety of food as possible, though not trying to fatten it. Tho pet lamb is one of tho nicest playthings for the children, all the more because it requires some care, and will thus teach them habits of thoughtfulness that inanimate playthings could not do. There is a great and notable increase in tho demand for sweet cream and this is likely to continue. One cause doubtless is the use of creameries aud of ice for making cream rise quickly, and the least possible injury by absorption from the air. Cream is no longer old before it is gathered; in fact, it is unalfoetod by injurious odors, as is new milk. Tho old-fashion e.l cream raised in open pans is good for cooking purposes; but like cooking butter it cannot be made generally popular as that from creameries. Laying hens are very fond of broken bones. They help to digest other food when they cannot get a sharp gravel, and with the strong digestive apparatus which fowls have, every part is made use of. Tho Hrac goes to make tho shells, but if the bones have been only cookod and not burnod, they are full of materia! from which the egg itself is made. The only advantage from burning bones is to n u k e them break up more easily. The fowls certainly do not like them as well, nor are they so good for them as when broken up T H E ••STAR-SPANGLED." without burning tor. -American Cultiva- DmuoHtlc Hint*.

The writer (Margaret Armistead Baker, in the New York World) is enabled to give the following account as an established fact: The night of Sept. 10, ISM, was a memorable one in the American his- .of on his son's vessel, the Surprise, where they were accordingly taken, but were afterward conveyed to the Mindea, where Key composed this immortiU song. All through the long night Key could hear the r o a r of the bombs as they tore through the air, but no explosion followed, and he was left in painful doubt until dawn as to the fate of his beloved country. Be-' fore it was light enough lie turned to see if his ilag "was still t h e r e , " and tory. The British fleet, consisting of ' he was Rewarded by seeing the beautithirty sail, appeared nt the mouth of 1 fnl StarBand stripes still floating on the Patapsco river with every intention I the soft jmorning air. It was at this of attacking the city of Baltimore. A momenta/that Key, completely carried short distance from the mouth of the ! away by the excitement of the hour, river stood Fort McIIenry, command- J wrote the "Star-Spangled Banner.1 ' In ed by L i e u t Col. George Armistead, hunting for paper he could only find U. S. A., a young man not over 31 years of age. He had under his command about 1,00) men. From the 12 th to the 14th of September the enemy besieged the fort in every available way —first landing many of their men within a few miles to the north of the fort, and finding they could gain no headway in this manner they returned to t h e i r vessels and kept up a perfect cannonade. In sheer desperation the British again landed a force of men—in all about 1,200— but they were again repulsed by tho intrepid fighting of Col. Armistead's men and finally beat a hasty retreat. The bombardment lasted about twenty-five* hours, during which time from 1,500 to 1,800 bombs were thrown, but, singular to relate, they nearly all broke in fragments over the fort. In spite of the severe firing Col. Armistead only lost four men, and about twenty-five were wounded. Of all that fought that day not ono man is aliwe, though in 1873 one of the company of the Fencibles survived—M. J. Cohen of Baltimore. The garrison at Fort McIIenry on the 1-lth day of September consisted of One company United States artillery, commanded by Cwpt. Evans; two companies of Sea JencibJes, the Washington artillery of Baltimore, the Baltimore Ffcdependent artillerists, the Baltimore Fencibles, a detachment of flotilla men, and Col. George Armistead. George Armistead was born in Newmarket county, Carolina, Va., on the 10til of April, 17S0. lie entered the army as a second lieutenant in 17'J'J. He roso to the rank of major, 1813, and way breveted lieutenant-colonel for gallantry at the capture of Fort Goorge in May, U:i3. He had five brothers in the army during the sam 2 year, many of who.se descendants nowlive. The vessels which attacked Fort McIIenry were sixteon in number, five of them being bomb vessels, and for this reason it was all the more remarkable that the fort should have held out, as it was anything but bomb-proof. Knowing this the general had sent Col. Armistead orders to surrender the fort as he considered it an impossible thing to resist such a large licet with only 1.1M0 men. Like Kelson at Copenhagen, Col. Armistead, turned a blind eye to tho orders, defended Ills fort, knowing that if he failed court-martial stared him in the face. Nothing, however, succeeds the back of several letters in his pocket, and it was as if on odds and ends this glorious- song of liberty was written. In the meantime he had landed in Baltimore, where he completed his work, and the next morning he took his maiden piece to Judge Nicholson, his brother-in-law. The judge was so struck with its force and beauty that he had it sent immediately to the printer, and within one hour it was printed on hand bills and all over tho city. Every one was wild about it, and it at once took its place as tlie song. Around the border of the song, in ,the type of the day, was the legend: "Bombardment of Fort McHenry." Below the song are the words: " W r i t - ten by Francis S. Key of Georgetown, I). C." The Baltimore American of 1*72, on the anniversary of tho battle of North Point, republished the song which had been written just fifty eight years before. Samuel Sands, the •printer boy who put the song in type, was living up to a few years ago and was the respected editor of the American Farmer. Several copies of the song, with the autograph of Key attached, are known to be in existence—one in possession of the late Mrs. Charles Howard of Baltimore, a daughter of the author; another belongs to Gen. Keim of Pennsylvania, whose son now has the poem, and the third went to Mr. Mahar, for many years head gardener of the executive mansion in Washington. In after vears Mr. Key changed a good many words of the soncr. There can be no doubt of the authenticity of the flag. It was preserved by Col. Armistead and bears upon ono of its stripes his name and tho day of the bombardment in his own handwriting. At his death it fell to his widow, who at her death left it to her daughter, the late Mrs. William Stuart Appleton, who was born at Fort McIIenry some years a f t e r t h e siege and at whose birth the flag was raised. It luvs ever been sought after oi\ all stite oee.isions, one of these being when Lafayette was entertained in this country and another was in the recollection of the writer, when it was displayed for weeks at our centennial, where Tt had a special guard of honor. At the time of Co!. Armistead's defense the city of Baltimore presented him. as a token of their high esteem The Peterbya Discuss Foreign Kobleraen. "When it comes to making foola of themselves I do honestly think that the American girl is entitled to t h e blue ribbon," remarked Mr. Peterby, who was reading the morning paper. * ' ^ s , it frequently happens that in the selection of their husbands they show bad taste," replied Mrs. Peterby, very sarcastically. "Is that a hit at me?'* "If the cap fits you there is no objection to your wearing it, particularly as it will cover that bald placo on y o u r head." "Thank you, Mrs. Peterby. You a r e very kind this morning." '*Oh, don't mention it; but in what particular respect has the Americaa girl been making a fool of herself, and thus invoking your wrath?" "Well another bogus German baron has married a wealthy American and has swam off with her money. T h e y were married in Baltimore, and now he has skipped." "And he did not belong to a high family?" asked Mrs. P. "Naw; his claims to belong to an elevated family was not as well founded as that of the man whose father was hung for horse stealing. He claimed to be Baron F. E. O. Von Sucrow, but there is not such a baronet in the Almanach de Gotha, although there may be lots of them at Sing Sing and in the barber shops.*1 "But there are some real noblemen who come to this country and m a r r y high-minded American girls." " T h e high-minded American girl who marries a foreign snob hasn't got any common-sense. It costs the American girl, on the average, ¢200,000 to marry one of these titled frauds, but the cost in misery is not known." "But some of these titled Englishmen who marry American girls are real baronets." "Bah! Very likely their motherstook in washing, and they themselves studied natural history as elephant attendants in a cheap cirou9. It's what you don't know about these foreign noblemen that makes them respectable. But it is just as I said: On tho nobility question the American woman is a conspicuous ass. If an orangoutang with a title were imported into this country, he would not be safe," and putting on his hat, Mr. Peterby indignantly went downtown to his office.—Texas Siftings. of his great bravery, an elegant silver like suecees, and of course all was i punch-bowl in the shape of the largest bombshell thrown into the fort by the British.

Some nine vears ago the eitiforgotten when he achieved tueh a gallant victory. The incessant firing of bombs, the clash of musketry, the red glare in tho heavens, tho groans of the dying, the moaning of tho wounded—sij^h was tho sceno which the flag waved over which inspired Francis Scott Key to compose our national song. The song G-oethe and His Doppelgsenger. Goethe, when a young man, wasresting by tho roadside on one occasion when he observed tho figure of a middle aged gentleman approaching him on horseback. There was something in the features and gonoral appearance of the stranger that attracted his attention in a marked degree, for the"face and figure seemed to be his own, although older and more developed. In their costume, however, there was no. similarity whatever, fot> while the stranger wore tho robes o f a . councilor of state, tho young^poot wore the ordinary dress of ciy^rnio. In the course of j'ears afterward and when the circumstajKJe had been nearly forgotten it^was brought before him ugain in a-'most startling manner, for one following e x t r a c t is taken:^-"" "This song was composed under tho following cireumstoffees: A gentleman had left Bajjdmore, under a flag of truce, for>he purpose of getting released frjorn the British fleet a friend of d at Marithe mouth of tho Patuxent and was not permitted to return, lest the intended attack on Baltimore should be disclosed. He /.ens of Baltimore had a magnificent monmuent erected to his memory, and it may be seen now in Druid Hill park, where it is visited by hundreds of strangers throughout the year. On looking at the flag it will be seen thatone of the stars is missing and a piece wad torn away. One of those dis-"* figurements was occiu-ioned by a bomb passing through it, and the other piece which is missing was cut out and sent was, therefore, brought up the bay to to bury the body of one of Col. Armithe mouth of the Patapsco, where the flag vessel was kept under guns of a frigate, the Surprise, aud was compelled to witness the bombardment of Fort McIIenry, which the admiral had boasted he would carry in a few hours. He wstchod the flag at the fort t h r o u g h the whole day with an anxiety t h a t can be hotter felt than described, until the night prevented him from seeing it. In the night he watched tha bombstead's soldiers in. Of all the devoted body of men who fought in that battle, as 1 have said before, none remain. The flag which inspired Key to writo his immortal song is now in the possession of Col. George Armistead's gratidson, Ebon Appleton, a wellknown citizen of this citv. In 1S74 the late Commodore Preble, U. S. N., held a special meeting of the Massachusetts Historical society, whore were displayed the three flags bearing ahell*, and at early dawn his eye was \ the greatest interest in tho history of our again greeted by tho proudly-waving J country, the most prominent, of course, .ay while passing the very spot where he had long since encountered the stranger he found himself similarly mounted and riding along leisurely and perceived that in form and feature he was now the very counterpart of tho mysterious horseman and to crown the miracle, that his costume was the same to the minutest detail, as ho was himself now a councilman of state also.— Be ford's Magazine.

A couple of Springfield (Mass.) men have riovise'd a metal roll for drawing out slivers, that not merely docs tho work better than tho old leather-covered roll,- but will savo the spinners the pretty penny now paid out in repairs upon them. Hereafter the boats to bo carried by Atlantic steamers instead of being made of wood will be made of steel in one piece. Wooden boats rot and arc easily crushed. The new boat* will be built by machinery especially made for rolling them out in all sizes in a single plate. Joe Kemp, of Buena Vista, G a , had a very lar^o rat the other day that was captured and killed by his cat. Its shoulders, neck and a stripe down the back to the tail wor.) the color of tho common gray rat; the balunce of the body and foot were white, like the white rat. A ghost has appeared, near Akron, Ala., at a point on tho railroad where a man was run over and killed last summer. A ghostly figure in white with arms extended, was seen there by a young couplo who were out riding tho other evening. Both wore badly seared mid so was the horse. A now fence is made of soft steel, cut while in tho plate and drawn out after the fashion of paper love baskets.> J t is proposed also to make iron lathing by the same process, which, it is said, will be lire resisting an-d capable of being bent and hammered into corners and around curves in a way to put wood uuito out of countenance. The military custom of saluting by bringing tho hand into a horizontal posit- km—-ovor-tbo cychv-ow-a—i«- thus accounted for: It is supposed to date Pack to tho tournaments of tho middle logos, when, after the queen of beauty was entlironod, the knights who wore to take part in the sports of the day inarched past tho dais on which she sat, and as thoy passed shielded their eyes from the rays of her beauty. Among precious stones the ruby, tho topaz, and tho sapphire aro composed mainly of alumina, colored with different earthy and metallic salts. Tho diamond is a carbon crystallized, as everybody knows; the garnet is a mixture of silica and alumina; the opal, silica and water; the turquoise, phosphate of alumina, colored with salts of copper, which also turns silicate of magnesia into the gleaming green malachite. John Hnusch, a San Francisco expressman, believes that marriage is a failure, lie married a pretty girl, after investing about twenty-five dollars in a bridal outfit for her, and established her in a comfortable fiat, They spent Saturday night together,' and Mr. Knusch wont to his work Sunday. * When he returned home Sunday night his brand-new wife had disappeared, taking with her everything of value she could lay her hands on. Fourteen years ago a farmer living near Defiance, Iowa, struck a huge t:isk at the depth of twenty-six feet whilo ho was digging a well. H e laid the wall of the well on top of tl»e tusk, bnt, fancying afterward that the water had a queer taste, filled tho holo up. Recently some people ot a scientiiao' bent unearthed the farmer's find. It p r o f i t *•' to be seven feet ion?. It is very brittle, but ,» pieces broken from it aro susceptible of %V very high polish and rescmblo ivory. It is not often that a rooster has any particular desire to tako a bath, but a few days ago a P o r t Oram, N. J., bird showed t h a t under tho pressure of necessity he could swim like a duck. He was chasod by a dog to the edge of the Morris Canal, and, seeing no other mode of escape, he Jumped in. Tho dog followed, but tho rooster, using both wings and feet as propellers, •forged rapidly through tho water. An eye witness reportst h a t tho winged one was the faster swimmer, and when ho strugglod up the opjwsito bank the dog was a bad second. The tri-, umphant rooster stood upon tho shore arjf crowed for over a minute, and, while t h u f / engaged in self-laudation, tho dog landed nnd almost succeeded in catching him by tho tail. Ho saved himself by fluttering into a troe. • * * * * * • • ' " • " • * * > % i > < . |inGuedruritaAn nr«A(Hmt/ibun tahIe^ wflarreunte cvutcrw/a.liiiiJiiiuorfer*i vceoVmifno^rtl -1 I ablei aleep; effect* « m where »T other* full.

It may not be generally known that "ration money" is due to soldiers or their htirs, it the soldier was at any time an inmate of a re Owl prison.

The Livingston Repulican says that a Howell yonng couple while reveling in a hammock on Sunday of last week were unconsciously photographed by C. A. Paddack, but the picture being too sacred tor the eyes of the public, the young man furnished ice cream and cierars, and no names were given. Walter M. Reason, the court stenographer of this judical circuit, has invented and applied for a patent upon an attachment for a type writer or caligraph which promises to be a great improvement over anything yet before the patent office. The device, which can be rapidly,attached to any machine and consists of an arm *o ' attached to the carriage that by simply touching an extra key arranged on the key-board, the carriage returns from the end of the finished line, the paper is rolled and all is in readiness for commencing upon the next. So f»r no typo writer has been invented that does not require two extra moves of the hand and arm Lyi i He tuen ran down the alky. A man who saw the blow gave the alarm and -Lyman was nicked upland taken to his home with blood streaming from his mouth, ears and eyes.

Charles Fredric Worth was born ia the town of Bourne, iu Lincolnshire, England. His parents where English, and little dreamed that their name would ever become almost synonymous with the centre of the fashion world. It was their ambition that Charles should learn a trade, and, with this end in view, apprenticed him at the ajre of thirteen to a printer, But the boy was so fastidious that he disdained to soil his lingers even, and evinced a strong hostility to handling type. Against the kind remonstrances of his parents, he abandoned the printing office when he had been there but seven months, and as the saying is went up to London. she graduated at Charlottevile, New York, she has written verse, but during the last 3'ear this has bourgeoned into a stately and ambitious form that may be said to be unique. She has now three finished lectures written in verse, which she has delivered since inauguration day —one as herhusband's substitute in Connecticut, when, in the ^middle of his campaign in Washington, she telegraphed him: .IAMKS TANXKR: DO not come. I will take yuur place. And she did, reading a new lecture in verse on Soldiers, andepecially the duty of the government towards them. Mrs, Tanner has four children, ranging from ten years old to twice ten, but she linds soma time to give to the (i. A. R., and to her other friends, the women suffragists. I heard her lecture this week on this latter question—it was a rhythmical and rhymed argument, In the dialect of an old-fashioned New England farmer, a controversy between John and Betsy, after the fasliion of Lowell or Carlton. Betsy's gru'imuir was sometimes out of joint, but she hud lots of facts and a shrewd wit and sarcasm that turned to derision John's ridiculous claims to superiority. I have heard her lecture to the G. A. R., too. It is a heroic didactic verso : and the memories of war time are emj phasized by the scream of the old eagle. j Corporal and Sirs. Tanner seem exact counterparts like their predecessors, General and Mrs. Black. General Black is ono of the most eloquent of orators and his wife an accomplished reciter, and each is proud of the attainments and ability.of the other. Corporal Tanner is an eloquent man, facile and vigorous of speech, careful and precise of articulation, and with a rin^in,'^ voice capable of pathetic modulations, and Mrs. Tanner seems likely to win distinction in current polemics and dialectics. Mrs. Tanner has a comely aiulattracti vo personality, a large head lirmly poised upon ample shoulders and a square face, in which strength of purpose and decision of character are conspicously marked. She wears her iron-gray hair brushed back from a high forehead in a style of which Madame fompadour'a 'coiffure was an illustrious example. Commissioner and Mrs. Tanner are going next week to Georgetown to live, and there they will take the boys and girls and house-hold pets and penates - to a great, stately old mansion in the middle of two acres of lawn. CHARLES FREDERICK WORTH. The boy had previously written to a friend living in the capital, asking tor assistance in securing a position in a draper's shop, or in what Americans call a dry goods store. His friend proved true, and after some ditliculty procured for young Worth a situation in the house "of Swan & Edgar. The lad evidently was a favorite at the start, and for more than six years continued to grow in the linn's favor. Speaking to an old acquaintance the other day Worth said,, concerning his relations with the firm: ••The heads of the establishment always treated me as if I were a near relative, and on one occasion..when I was senoifsTylTTTTIrs. Kilgar'took excel lent care of me. Indeed, if it, had not been for her I doubt if I should be alive today." One naturally asks. How did Worth come to be a dressinakor? Those familiar with his past say that he first conceived the idea of becoming a designer of fashions while taking with the buyers of the firm. Moreover, he frequently made suggestions which the heads of the departments were not slow to see in a favorable light. The more he talked with the buyers the more he resolved to go to Paris, and soon began the study of French. At length, unable to secure a positive engagement, he proceeded to the gay capital, and almost at once pot a position with Gaeglin & Co. I think Worth was now about twenty-two years old. In a few years he was at the head of the department, and strove to introduce several new departures. Failing to see his suggestions utilized, he established the lirm of Worth & Bobe'rgh. In 1870 he founded the now famous house of Worth. He has dressed many queens and princesses, and has been awarded medals at many great expositions, Mrs. Corporal Tanner. Such I'retty Ways. "She had such pretty ways with her." That was the reason an honest, hard working man gave for marrying a girl of whom he knew little else, but who was really a professional bigamist, traveling about the count ry and marrying husband after husband as a matter of speculation. * It is the pretty wa}'s of women which have -ruined many a man of every age, including the greatest of generals, statesmen and philosophers. If tho pretty ways come from the heart it is all right. If they are the result of cold, selfish, calculating art, woe to him who falls their victim. Nothing is truer than that women are both better and worse than men. A man cuuild hardly he so bad as a woman is when she puts on the prettiest ways of her sex for mischief.

Some years ago a part of Hits stony was removed for building purpose-J, an act of vandalism which should have been prevented at all hazards, and now trie remainder is submerged at all ae-asjms of the year. Wrhon whole, tho surface of tho "pictured rode" wai about twenty by thirty feet in extent, and was covered with representations of animals, fish and fowls, carved deep in the smooth surface. On ono side were the figures of a man and a bear, the latter being1 about life size. Near by was a buffalo track, and a short distance away was the representation of a large fish and a number of footprints, evidently representing the imprint of a child's feet. The work was evidently prehistoric people, as the traditions of the valley are that the representations were on the stones when the first white men visited the region, and that they then bore unmistakable signs of gre-at ago, being water worn and smooth. The vicinity of Paint creek is rich in aboriginal and prehistoric relics, and a volume might be written of the discoveries which have been made there.

The following from the Philadelphia ; Times, although flavored somewhat with sarcasm, is such a choice bit of j pleasanter lhat it will possibly give no j offence if reproduced in these columns: \ The administration is to have a poet \ laureate Mrs. "Corporal Tanner," the wife of the sturdy and widely-known Commissioner of Pensions. Ever since that's (he lirst means of recognizing an American lady on tfie streets of Paris':1 We would as soon think of buttoning' up our vests, or pulling on our ties after leaving the door for a walk, in Paris. Many and many a time we have picked out Americans'in Paris by that sign. I rather like the American girl for it, though. She looks as if she didn't care a cent whom it pleased or displeased.' FntUiinn .Votes. White skirts are undraped. Fashionable dress-makers manage to make them elaborate and decorative by alternate arrangements of plaits and gathers, shirrings and smockings, from the waist line, and panels and slashes, with re vers and borders, complete the elaboration. In honor of the centennial year the Martha Washington kerchief, folded lightly and crossed over the chest, is worn with afternoon toilets. These, kerchief's are made of . deep squares of white, cream and tinted silk mull, richly bordered with Puritan irills of silk lace. Women who are sure that their throats and necks are pretty and white< full and well rounded, wear the wide* falling collar, like tho Little Lord Fauntleroys, now so popular with girls as well as with boys, or the deep falling plisse of mull or nainsook or lace net, white, cream or tinted blue, yellow or pink. Short-sleeved", very short cape-like mantles, with long lapels in front, the sleeves sometimes entirely of lace and bead fringes, are shown in a variety of forms and made of velvet gauzes, cashmere, bengaline, brocaded silks and finished with tassels and Hots of ribbon, passementeries, motils, laces and raise fringes. Negliges for summer were never more charming than now. Tho tea-gowns, which have been cast down from their high place as reception dresses, are now universally made up as morning house dresses or negliges. They are generally made for summer of India silk or sheer French nainsook, and in some cases of crepon, a light crape-like wool, which comes in delicate colors. The long-handled parasol fails to find the general favor which was expected. It is too pronounced in .style and too heavy, A parasol with a handle of medium size is preferred by the l:*ist dressed woman.

I3ou(fant styles in -plain black or whit* net are also elegant for dressy us* antiquarian, and there is every evidence that in past a^es the valley was thickly peopled by an unknown race, probably contemporary with the mound builders of the Ohio valley. At Moorefield, from the'time of tho first settlement, the cliff known as the Gap Rocks, iu the Petersburg- Clap, has born the gigantic representation of a common fox. The picture is upon the sheer and inaccessible face of the rook, some thirty feet from the top and nearly one hundred feet from the bottom, and bein? colored a dingy yellow, in sharp contrast to the brown stone. Recently (ilea MeGill, of Ohio, who was visiting Cell Beans, went out to view the fox, accompanied by Mrs. Beans. After an inspection from the bottom of tho cliff the two men ascended to the top. and making a ropo fast to a tree, MeGill lowered himself dowd to the fox. lie deseribjs it ai being twelve feet long, and painted or plastered upon the cliff with a substance resembling earthenware glaze, j which is as hard as the rock itself. The surface of the fox is quite rough, as though the stuff was roughly smeared on by h;ind be fort: it hardened.

A man by the name of Klinkingbcard says lie was once hunting in the Virginia mountains. He got lost, traveled around all day until, tired out, he sat down on a log to rest- After sitting there awhile he thought the log moved and jumped up and examined. He found to his unspeakable amazement that it was a large snake. He ran off about fifty yards and fired at it, but the ball glanced off without hurting the snake. The monstrous reptile raised its head about fifty feet. but Mr. Klinkiugbeard soon had another load in his gun, and this time he aimed at the smooth place around the neck where there seemed to be no scales..

None, perh a p s had a more exulting experience •.than a p a r t y of fifteen people, which 'left Bannoclc in April, 1863, under t h e leadership of J a m e s Stuart. T h i s party hud determined to explore a h i t h e r t o unknown region in eastern M o n t n a in search of tho precio3 1. teen days after leaving Bnnnock p a r t y , while camped on the n o r t h k of the Yellowstone, were startled one evening by the sudden a p p e a r a n c e of a band of thirty Indians on the opposite- bank,' who, tiring t h e i r guns dashed peilraell into the stream, which .they crossed and came into camp, pret e n d i n g friendship, bnt conducting themselves in such an aggressive mann e r t h a t hostilities wore at one time imminont. Finally they withdrew. No one in the party slept t h a t night, knowing the country was full of Indians and fearful t h a t the red devils m i g h t attack them. T h e next morning the Indians returned to tho camp just after daylight, and after helping themselves to whatever seemod to strike t h e i r fancy forcibly prevented any of the party from saddling their Horses, The Hon. S. T . Houser, a former resident of St. Louis, who was one of t h e p a r t y , afterward governor of Mont a n a and now president of tho First national bank of Helena, in describing t h e events which followed says: " O a r leader, seeing t h a t something had to be done, formed a plan, showing at the s a m e t i m e no evidence of being alarmed at t h e turn affairs were taking. Passing by me he said in an undertone: 'Tell t h e boys there is going to bo trouble—to bo ready—keep a close watch, do as I do', and for their lives do not fire until I do.1 With this ho wont to work in the most unconeerned indifferent way imaginable, and movi n g around quietly, giving directions h e r e and there, interspersing t h e m with dry, witty remarks, and doing nothing to give us a clow to what his plans were. '•The mystery was finally solved when the opportunity came. Stuart, had been waiting to throw tho Crow chief off his guard and catch him a p a r t from his warriors. Our first w;Vning came with his quick, sharp order to 'fork out,' and tho same instant he covered the chief's heart with his une r r i n g rillo, tho muzzle of which was not more than two foot from the old w a r r i o r s breast. Instantly wo all followed suit, each ono covering an attack until daylight, using t h e i r IK>*O and arrows at so short a range t h e twang of their bow-strings could be distinctly ho ird, they worked no further injury upon the besieged camp. T h e morning came to look upon a scene which would have sickened a h e a r t of stone. W a t k i n s was shot through the heat, and, though dying, was unconsciously crawling upon his elbows and knees round ar.d round in the tent. The life-blood of the unfortunate Bostwiuk was flowing from five wounds, and with both t h i g h s and a shoulder broken he lay awaiting death. II. A. Boll, shot twice through tho body, was supposed to be mortally wounded, and S. T. liausor had a bullet lodged against a rib over his heart. JusL beyond rill) range tho Indians still hovered in plain sight, watching: for a favorable opportunity to complete their work. One-half (seven only) of the white men were left unharmed and the wounded were to bo cared for. It was decided to stay with tho m o r t illy wounded until death came to their relief, then to run the gantlet of t h e Sioux as well as tho Crows in the effort to reach a place of safety. It was also determined to give battle to the enemy before starting. Hauser, (Jeery and Underwood made an a g r e e m e n t t h a t if either of them was mortally wounded he should put an end to his own o.xistance to prevent unnecessary sacrifice of the party by remaining to defer.d a man who would die any way. All being ready the party started in single file for an elevated plateau about 300 yards off. Arriving at the place selected for the light tho captain tried to draw the Indians into battle, but t'ley refused the challenge, and the party returned to the camp, packed up, and started on their perilous journey. J u s t before leaving liosowiek, knowing ho could n p f n v e , blew his brains out. On the second day of the homeward trip, while in the midst of prepa r a t i o n s for supper, the party were startled by the report of a rillo in their midst. It was (leery, who, remembering, his agreement and knowing he could not live shot himself in the head. T u r n i n g to his friends who came rushing up to\him he said: '-Comrades, I am fatally \Ypunded and must die sjon, and the fact that you would all stay by me and die for'me has determined me. Remember (putting the muzzle of his pistol against his breast), 1 am not committing suicide; bear witness to my friends that I,only shorten 11 my life a few hours to prevent yo i from uselessly sacrificing yours in defens.5 of mine; 'that, though I have a Christian hope in eternity, 1 fear death; yet musf-jneet it at onee to prevent useless sacrifices." llcva strong men were all weeping over, him as ho continued, "(iod bless all of yon, comrades; I must dio, a i d in Indian with a cocked r ^ o ^ J c v o W o ^ l ^ ^ ^ , v o u t 0 b . u . v m o b e f m . 0 U a r l < . and like a flash their robes fell from ; i j u r y m o •„ t h i s ( X K l \ ( h U s o K l i e i . 0 V 0 1 , Uieir shoulders and they were naked, with their guns loveled on us in return.

" F o r t u n a t e l y they all looked to t h e i r chief and saw that h i was lost if a gun was firod. We also looked 'to our captain and our danger was almost forgotten in admiration. His whole bearing and manner had changed; he seemed and was taller. His usually calm faco was aQro, his quiet blue eyes were now flashing like an eagles's, and seemingly looking directly through the fierce and for a time undaunted savage who stood before him. For several seconds it was doubtful whether tho old warrior chief would cower boforo his white foo or it his fate thon and there. '•' ,fa**Capt. Stuart, with his flashing eye : / < ^ J H l e d upon him, was fiercely and ^ - * l » q u e n l l y reproaching t h e Indian with his bad faith, winding up in a voice of stern determination: 'Signal you w a r r i o r s off, or I'll send you to your last hunting-grounds!' " F o r an instant tho suspenso was i n d e s c r i b a b l e and a deathlike silenco reigned. Tho dark, fierce, snakeliko eyes of the fiends about us was enough to unnerve most men. Nono could do- «ide, from the defiant air of tho clujf, ther ho \v;b going to give tho derfeignal or die; bnt finally a wave vo hand removed our doubts, and lis braves all lowered t h e i r weapons j\nd sullenly sought t h e i r robes and ponies." For fourtoon days thoso savages followed tho party, seeking an opportunity to murder them. On the n i g h t Of May V,] the Crows crept to the e d f e of tho c a m p and iirod a vollev into i t which wounded s o w n men,"two raor- i*1"5 party reduced one-half, reached a place the pistol to your temple., which (leery replied: ••Thanks, J i m ; may Cod bless you all and take you safely out of this/1 As he turned to place,.the pistol to his temple the men with weeping eyes and full hearts all turned to walk away. IIo pressed the trigger and the cap only explode 1. Hauser then appealed to him, saying: "For God's sake desist; this is a w a r n i n g . " • To this (leery made no reply, but seeming to solioquizo with himself, said: " I don't know what to think of that; it never snapped before." Cocking the pistol again he engaged in prayer for a few minutes and then pulled tho trigger that launched him into eternity. After burying their comrade the party proceeded on t h e i r way, with the reds in sight all tho time. After several days' marching they came to a trail overhung with a hill, whore the Indians assembled in large numbers. Hauser, seeing the only salvation for at least a portion of the party was for some one to go over and around the hill, thus drawing the Indians1 fire while the others went through the pass, volunteered for this duty. Obtaining Stuart's consent he cocked his rillo, spurred his pony, and was olT. Underwood, whose left a r m was useless, determined to share the dancer, and with his bridle in his right hand he started after Hauser. The appearance of theso two bravo men seemed to have a paralyzing effect upon the'Crows, and before they i\uvM recover from their surprise the party •Was out of the pass and on open ground.

Mr. Neither baid: "Yes, we received per United States Kxpress company $•,000, but the ticket was placed iu our huuds for collection by one of our customers, Mr. Wm. Keller of Summit, 111. The cash l:as beeti turned over to him, and, 1 understand, divided auionj,' Mr. Keller and three others WHO were interested with him in the transaction." Mr. L.

The sphere of the blacksmith has of late years been gradually bijt surely narrowing dowu, and it now begins to look as if the occupation would soon bo goue. Ouce he had io make horse shoes, horse nails, and sometime.* part of the simpler tools; now these arc all manufactured by machinery. They constitute separate und independent branches of business and are furnished ready made to the hand of the smith fur better, cheaper, and more serviceable than they could be made iu his shop. The last innovation, however, by which ho is threat ened is the most serious of all. A system of iidjustable horseshoes without nuils is about to bo introduced into Lngland. English need or' suca a contrivance is far greater than American need, tor, as a ru'e, English horseshoeing is a diabolical sort o' bungle, au l the cuniberson shoes aud ungaiuiy nails used iu England are simply relics of a primitive age and barbarous in their effect on the horny substance of the hoo:'. Capable veterinary surgeons have estimated that twenty-five in every 1,000 horses in England die some ten years before their time as a result of lock;aw or some other damasic inflicted in tho process of shoeing. The light shoes and dainty n.iiis of the American blacksmiths are the wonder and derision of the English furriers, who regard these articles as mere toys compared with their own. There is no doubt, however, that tho estimate which has bee-n made of the loss of horse service in England und Wales alone in consequence oi tho necessity of shoeing once a month, and which is t.!3,000,01-0, may serve as a pointer to this country, and when the saving in expenditure and time and the increase in the working power oi' horses which a perfectly elective adjustable shoe would effect, are considered, the adoption of such a contrivance in America would, in all probability, bo rapid and universal.

For a moment the President did not appear to notice the action. \\ hen he did notice, it, he quie'Jy removed "he badge from his coat and handed it Lack lo the discomforted giver with the remark "This i.s entirely umieess'ary." The sijjrni(i'-:\i:c • of this action is easily understood when one remembers ihat^the»ordor is generally supposed to be violently antagonistic to the Roman Catholic church and the Irish race, The President evidently wanted no llurchard business in this. Landlord Spofford/'"Who took the matter much to heart, as every gentlem a n regrets his errors of judgement in matters of that kind, is the last man ono would suspect of having a hobby. As a landlord he is a busy, energetic business man, shrewed and practical. .His hotel is perhap- the• iine.st in the city so far as fare is concerned and patrons of the wealthier class. In private he entertains social schemes and talks loudly of k,the/ cause." l i e and his wife are apostles of the woman's rights party and nearly every year a convention of long haired men and short haired Vv-omen mrkes a raid on the house and Uke~s;-----po.:sos-dou of ail the fine rooms. Then the"regular guest finds himself relegated to the upper regions until the enthusiastic mob of '•thought thinkers" has passod by. The pampered aristocrat, Baby IVIcKee has jus't, ltroived a vi-it from the President, at his headquarters at the Cape May cottage of Mr. Wanamaker, and went with him to see a game of base ball on Saturday. The AleKee infant is a social success and his levees are attended by vast numbers of oflicu seekers. I re Iced, it is seriously believed.that he is in danger of being kidnapped and held in the wild mountain retreats of Indiana for a ransom in the sdiape of a po>to;'iee. The last complaint indicted noon Ike infant is however rather discouraging and one must sympathize with him. A local song writer has dedicated a new lullaby i 0 Baby M d S o . The young king of Spain is not more weighted with the cares of state than is our young Indiana friend, with the doting grand-father. Dr. William A. Hammond has been sued by his architect for six thousand dollars as payment for services prior to his recentdismis-al. Dr. Hammond started out to build a 810,000 hospital on tho Fourteenth street road and a $60,000 house opposite the residence of tho British minister. .Thus far the expense incurred in carrying out the architects plans has been §220,000 and the doctor is mad all the way through. .He did not know that most Washington architects are .so used to government contracts, that they would/subm i t plans for a $10 chicken coop that would cost SlO.UiiO to build and trust to future legislation to provide for the deficiency. Dr. Hammond's interests in his chosen work does n o t weaken. It is impossible to meet .him without hearing something that is novel or timely regarding the human bran and its ailments. The other evening he nappened to speak of the -Johnstown calamity. The Knight- Templar's Conclave to be held by the knights of this jurisdiction in this city next October is expected to outview in interest, any similar event that, over occurred here. The numbers of visitors will be nearly as great as during the inauguration. The paraders will have the advantage of the most teautiful season of t h e year in Washington. IS T H E BEST.

A triple collision of freight, trains occurred near Latrobe, Pa., 4ii miles east of Pittsburg on the Pennsylvania railroad, about 2 o clock the other morning. At the hour named fre.ghl train No. .'3 )S, westbound, left Latrobe and had .,ust reached the bridge about 5b yards west of that place when it collide! with extra freight train No. W>V' coming in the opposite direction. Another castbound freight was standing on a sidetrack on the bridge, and the wrecked 1 rains crashed against it, causing one locomotive aud a number of cars to ^o over the embankment into the creek, a distance of 50 feet. Thirty oue cars went down over the bridge and were piled one upon tho other in the water. A carload of lime in the center of the train was the last to go down, and it was scattered over the pile of shattered cars. Then the debris took fire and notwithstanding the efforts of the people to put out the liames, continued to burn.

MITCHXLI.] company with a number of other newspaper men from Texas and elsewhere, we started from Dallas fur the City of Mexico, via El Paso. Texas has been so often described that it b not necessary to devote, much space to her peculiarities, wonders and beauties, yet there are always interesting facts to record in regard to this and growing state. Seven years ago over the Texas and Paclfi railrom Dallas to El Paso. The scene "is vastly different from what It was len, and we begin to realize what a powerful agent this magnificent railway has been in developing the vast region along the- rotate. Most railroads follow popula- The plains stretch away to the horizon lit all directions as far as -the eye can reach, almost as level as a floor. There is little vegetation and few signs of life of any kind. The soil of the plains is good, mostly of a chocolate color and very deep, but the rainfall is not sufficient for general agriculture. If plenty of water could be secured from artesian wells, UJs great plateau would blossom as the rose, but, otherwise, it can only be classed as a grazing country. That Texas is a state of magnificent distances may lje fully realized by a trip across its broad expanse. It is about as far from Texarkana to El Paso as from Texarkana to Savannah, (Ja. It is farther from Canadian, Texas, to Brownsville, Texas, than from Canadian to St. Paul, Minnesota, or to Helena, Montana. A number of Texas counties are nearer to St. Louis than Galveston. Brownsville, Texas, is nearer to Central America than to Lipscomb county, Texas. The Texas and Pacific is a great railroad. It is one of the smoothest and best equipped in the Union, yet it takes its passenger •4 by means of ft clotfe oaf, In regular Indian fashion. They havo fruits, milk, coffee, mescal, toquilla, tamales, chill con came, MARKET PLACE. <tlon into new countries, but the Texas and Pacific blazed the way. It penetrated a vast uninhabited region and made its settlement and development possible. Not many years ago the country from Weatherford to El Paso was a howling waste. To-day, it counts its cities by the score and its people by the tens of thousands. Such cities as Cisco, Abilene, Colorado, Big Springs, Midland, Pecos and El Paso stand where the prairie dog held undisputed sway, and we see farms and vineyards where the buffalo and antelope roamed at will. Farther onin Mexico, this same mighty agent, "the railway, is at work. The journeys that required months of time and untold hardships and discomforts a few years since are now made in a few days in luxurious palace cars. The mines and the vast agricultural regions of Mexico are made accessible to the outside world by such great railways as the Mexican Central, ami the work of development is rapid in consequence. Indeed the railway is a great civilizer, and ere long it will place all the riches of the American continent, from Alaska-ioT'atagonia, at our very doors. , ^ There is much beautiful country between Dallas and El Paso, along the Texas and Pacific. With waving fields of grain, ripe almost for the harvest,, with the growing corn, the thriving orchards the inviting farm houses, the fat cattle upon a thousand hills, the broad prairies and plains and the thriving cities ever and anon coming into yiew, there is much along the route to interest the traveler. In the Abilene country we sec countless thousands of prairie rings on the level red prairies, forming a ttsvel picture for those who witness it for st time. As far west as Big Springs ^ps look well, as the rainfall this seahas been sufficient for the needs of Agriculture. West, of Big Springs the country rapidly grows dryer as our train chases the setting sun. The country is thinly populated and there is no longer any trains two days and two nights to run f nom Texarkana to El Paso. Our part)', consisting of sixty-eight person*, left El Paso for the City of Mexico, via the Mexican Central railroad. The distance is 1-225 miles and the road runs the entire distance along the great central plateau of the Mexican Republic. The elevation varies from 3700 to 9000 feet above the sea level, the average being about 0000. This gives the Mexican Central many points of advantage over lines near the coast, as the climate along the line is bracing, the atmosphere pure ami there is no danger from the fevers that infest the hot coast country. In this connect ion it may he noted that the Mexican Central is one of the best equipped rail-' ways on the. continent. The joari^bed is firm and smooth, the cap* excellent and the official-* courteous-and obliging. Leaving ElJ^rso we soon realized that we WTre-trTa strange land, as the face oC tjie'eountry, the people, the architecture and the products are all different, For several hundred miles the country is very dry and uninviting, though stoekraising and mining are carried on to a considerable extent. There is jio fanning here without irrigation, but wherever water was found we saw fertile fields and evidences of patient industry on the part of the Mexicans. 'Every drop of water is utilized, the river beds being left absolutely dry in many places on account of the demands of the irrigating ditches. The people live in villages mostly composed of adobe houses, or houses built of large sundried bricks. These "houses are low. square and not preposcssing in appearance, but the interiors of many of them are handsomely finished in white plaster and elegantly furnished. They afford a cool retreat from the semi-tropic sun, being many degrees cooler inside than the average wooden house would be in the same climate in the hot season. Wherever there is a village you are sure to see a cathedral spire which appears to be the centre of attraction. The church'is usually the most imposing edifice in sight and some of them ,are very ancient and costly. Oil speeds our train, passing villages and haciendas at frequent intervals. The mountains that all the way appear on either side of us iseemto be getting higher and more imposing. The valley grows wider and less '•barren. Occasional farms appear, battle, sheep, goats and burros browse contentedly on the plains. Cactus, mesquitc and thorn bushes become more plentiful, calling to mind the saying that "in Mexico everything has a sticker on It'1 Picturesque groups of men, women and children crowd almut the train at the stations, all bearing the unmistakable Btnmp of the Indian blood that Hows in their veins, for, be it remembered, a large majority of the inhabitants of Mexico are descendc.l from the aborigines and not from the Spanish conquerors. They speak a sort of Spanish dialect, considerably corrupted by a mixture of Indian words. IN HOLIDAY ATTIHE. confectionery and krdek knacks of various sorts for sale, and their chattering in broken Spanish is amusing. Not one in a hundred of them can speak English, but they are good uatured and patient, and the traveler soon picks up enough Spanish words to drive trades with them in their own tongue for such articles as strike his fancy. They sell milk by the glass at the stations for a few coppers per glass, but a suggestion from some of our party that goat milk and burro milk were considered good in Mexico had a tendency to take away the craving for milk on the part of some of the excursionists. The first important city south of Juarez is Chihuahua, capital of the state of the same name. It is a beautifully located and well built city of some 20,000 inhabitants. It is noted for its rich silver mines and its beautiful cathedral. Chihuahua is 225 miles from El Paso and 1000 miles from the City of Mexico. The tall spires of its great cathedral are seen for many miles before we reach the city. A mint has long been in operation in Chihuahua, and there are many rich silver mines iu tht> surrounding mountains. American influence is probably felt to a greater degree here than in any other city in Mexico, though the Mexicans far outnumber all other nationalities combined. Chihuahua was founded about 350 years ago. It gets its water supply through an old stone aque luct built 'J20 years agoV Leaving Chihuahua our, train winds around beautiful El Corohel mountain and we enter the valleys of the San Pedro and Concho.-Here we begin to see a bett e r 'farming country. The valleys lire greener and more fertile. There are fields of eon. and wheat, as well as occasional fields of cotton, all clean as a garden and showing promise of good crops. Mexie.m peons are seen at work in the fields naked down to the waist and with their legs bare up to the knees. They the west. The next station of importance is Lerdo, with 12005, inhabitants. In the iaguna country. To the east of this station is a vast plain abounding in salt flats and marshes and known as the Bolson de Mapimi, south and w o t of Lerdo are extensive grain and cotton farms. The cotton shipments from this station amount to about 30,000 bales annually, most of which goes to cotton factories at various points in Mexico. At the stations in this region we see long lines of patient little burros being driven in from the outlying districts loaded down with all •ortsof commodities. Crates of oranges, t/ales of hay and straw, fire-wood, sacks of corn and beans, building stone, ores from the mines, vegetables and many other things arc packed to the railway stations on the backs of these hardy and useful animals. The loads that they carry are enbrmous, and often they are so buried beneath their burdens that their ears, tail and feet alone are visible. These burro trains often come long distances, even hundreds of miles across the mountains. They are guided by Mexicans on foot who often themselves pack burdens on thenown backs. On their return trips the burro trains, or caravans, take manufactured goods back to the mines and ranches in the distant mountains. In due time we begin climbing the mountains towords Zacatecas. After hours of steady climbing, our engine puffing and laboring very hard, we reach the highest point on the road, about 8400 feet above the sea level. The surrounding mountains are bleak and bare, the air is crisp and cool and all signs of agriculture have been left behind in the valleys below. Here, at the coldest point on our route, we cross the Tropic of Can::er and enter the torrid zone, but we should never suspect it from the temperature. Soon we get a peep down into a deep valley ahead of us, and there spread out below us like a painted panorama, lies the city of Zacatecas. This city contains about 60,000 inhabitants. It is mainly built of red sandstone and presents a peculiar appearance on this account, as most Mexican cities are built of white stone, while the villages are usually of dark adobj?. Above the ravine in which Zacatecas is built, the mountains rise on every hand, their slopes being dotted with massive stone buildings in which the work of silver reduction is carried on. This is one of the most important mining centers in- the Re-trtiblic, and the surrounding mountains are literally honey-combed with mines. On a high mountain near the city is an ancient church built in 1728. In former times penietnts who had been particularly wi-ked were accustomed to ascending this mountain to the church on their hands and knees, and such penitential pilgrimages are occasionally made even to this day. There is also a primitive church in Zacatecas which was built in 1.-)59. Leaving Zacatecas, our train rapidly descends from the mountains into the broad and fertile plains of the State of AguasCalientcs. Here great quantities of corn, wheat, barley and wool are raised. .The at work and unmindful of the strange visitors forms a novel and in ing scene. There are large wooiem in Aguas Caltontes. Prom this plnof towards the City of Mexico we notice that the country is densely lated and that irrigation is no longer essary to successful fanning. The wheal is as line as ever grew anywhere and i» ripe for the harvest Most of the cutting is done with sickles, though we saw an occasional reaper and binder of Americanmanufacture. Now the cities come thick and fast Here is Lagos with 40,000 inhabitants. It has large cotton and woolen mills. But Leon, in the state of Guanajuato, Is the great manufacturing city of the Republic. It has 100,000 inhabitants and produces large quantities of cotton and woolen goods, saddlery, boots and shoos, hats, cutlery and other goods. Leon is in a broad and rich valley that is in a very high state of cultivation. The soil is black, level and exceedingly rich. In fact we doubt if there is a more fertile section on the face of the earth. Here we saw beautiful wheat fields, waving corn and very fat cattle and sheep. It will be remembered that Leon is the place where the great flood occurred last year. The city j;i A conm.KK. nearly G003 feet above the sea level, yet itis in a level plain with mountains on both sides. Last year a great waterspout flooded the valley, destroyed four thousand houses, washed away twelve miles of the railroad track and caused the death of several thousand people who were either drowned or buried beneath falling walls. In fact the number lost will never he fully known, as many decaying bodies are believed to still be beneath the ruins. Queretaro, in the state of the same name, has 40.000 inhabitants. It is an interesting city and is built in a beautiful valley. It was here that Emperor Maximillian was shot, June 19, 18CT. We might fill columns in regard to Leon or Queretaro, but there is so much of interest, in Mexico that we must crowd facts together. Leaving the cities of the central valleys behind We climb the rim of the great basin. in which, like a fairy queen sits the great City of Mexico. INDIAN FAMILY. farming of much consequence.

In this connection it may be remarked that most of the lauds in Mexico are held in large estates by the favored classes, while the masses are engaged in a struggle for existence as tenants or day laborers. Fortunately for the latter clashes their wants are few and easily supplie.l. owing to the mild climate. A simple diet of corn cakes and stewed beans constitute their staif of life, with occasional bits of meat and plenty of red pepper. Most of the plowing is done with oxen. The yoke is strapped across the foreheads of the animals and made fast to their horns, so that they push with their heads instead pulling in the usual wa •. Santa Kosalia, famous for its sanitary hot springs, is an important town and is beginning to attract the attention of foreigners. Forty-five miles south of Santa Rosalia is Jimenez, the shipping point for the great Parral mining district lying to q, i city of Aguas Cal'ientes, so called from its many hot springs, has about 50,000 inhabitants and is one of the most attractive places iu Mexico. Immense stone bath houses are supplied with hot water direct from the hot springs by means of substan- ! tial stone aqueducts, ami a bath can be had either iu a stone bath tub or in a large and beautiful pool covering about one hundred feet square. This pool is surrounded and protected by a massive stonewall about twelve feet high, ami has stone bottom, sides and steps, it is exceedingly clean and attractive as a hashing place. Many people visit Aguas Calientes for their health on account of the hot springs. Near the bath houses are the lavadotos. These are massive A D e s e r v e d Rebuked.

"Walking Day" is the odd and appropriate term of a holiday in Warrington, England, when children and teachers march in procession and large numbers of people take excursions to various points of interest. Many of our holidays are walking days, although they do not receive that designation. William Barber, a South Georgia railroad man, must have a place among curious criminals.

The "devil" is out on a "time" this week, therefore the readers of the DISPATCH will please overlook all errors that may appear in this issue. Quito a number of our villagers are enjoying themselves camping ori the shores of the different lakes in this vicinity, of which there are many. The Misses Minnie, Flora and*Millie Hodgeman of this place were visitors among Pinckneyites last Saturday and Sabbath.—South Ly< ;, Excelsior. James Farrell, of Pinckney, was bit in the calf of his leg by a dog in this city, Tuesday night. The dog is doomed to death.—Ann Arbor Register. Miss Tressa Staffan, who has been in the millinery business in this place during the past three months, removed her stock to her home at Chelsea last Friday. Miss Kate Brown, who has been teaching school in Chicago, 111., for a number of years, is spending her vacation with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Brown, of East Putnam. "A Brief Sorrow," is the title of a continued story that is commenced ia tnis issue of the DISPATCH. It will be very interesting. : Now is the time to subscribe and get the benefit of the story. Last Saturday, as little Robbie Culhane was playing with a number of little boys among some barrels at his father's cooper shop, he fell from the lop of one of the barrels and fractured^ his left arm. Dr.; C. W. Haze was called and reduced the fracture. Mr. C. H. Edwards, a dentist of South Lyon, will visit this place next Friday fqr the purpose of doing any dental work that the people of this TIcinity wish to have done. Mr. Edwards informs us that if he can obtain enough patronage he will establish an office here, and will be at his office one or two-days each week. He is fetghly recommended as a first-class dentist. Miss Sarah Courter of Farmington, yisited Dr. C. W. Haze's people in this place last week and the 6rst of this. Inspite cf the busy times among the farmers, our merchants report a steady increase in trade. Verily the people of the surrounding country are beginning to learn where they can do their trading the cheapest. In Men's Shoes we have a line for fl.75, Congress, all solid leather counters and insoles, at the Star Dry Goods Store. * •Three children, two boys and a girl, aged respectfully about 6, 7 and 9 years, were taken to the Coldwater public school from Pinckney this week. Their names were Crowley, and their mother was considered an unfit person to bring up the ehildren properly.— Livinjareton Republican. Mrs. H. J,- Rogers* who wa3 visiting friends at Mason, was called to her home at this place last Friday on account of the illness-of her father, Volna Potter, who lives with Mr. and Mrs. Rogers. He is able to be around again, however. At the school meeting which was held in the high school room last Monday night, Messrs. Justus Swarthout and R. G. Webb were elected trustees of the school board to succeed Messrs. T. Grimes and T. Read, whose term has expired. Mr. R. C. Stackable of Genoa, will' leave next Friday for Big Rapids,, where he has been engaged to teach school, Mr. Stackable is a thorough teacher, and the school boaH of that place made no mistake in employing him. The DISPATCH will keep him posted on all news in this vicinity. Iii order to make room, for his winter stock, F. E. Wright will sell summer clothing at cost during the next thirty days. Mr. Wright says that he means business and will do just as he says; Now is the time to secure some great bargains, as lie has a nice stock to select from. It would be a good\ investment for some of our monied men to invest a lifctle money in the erection of a number of business places on the vacant lots on Main-st. There is no doubt but what they could be rented to people who desire to come here and do business. The appearance of the pest, the aphia, or "green midge," spoken of as affecting the wheat and other cereals, seems to be quite general throughout this county as well as in other parts of the country. From an interview with different, farmers in this vicinity, we find that there is no cause for great alarm, as the pest is doing but little, if any, damage to the cereals. They are now leaving, and no doubt ere another week has gone bye they will be a tiling of the past. The picnic given uader the auspices of St. Mary's church of this place in Dr. C. W. Haze's grove on July 4th, was a grand success, both financially and enjoyably. The committee on entertainment should receive much praise for the able manner in which the programme was arranged and performed, and the ladies of the society can feel assured that the excellent dinner that was served was appreciated by the large crowd that was present. \V. P. Van Winkle, our worthy Prosecuting Attorney, read the Declaration of Independence in fine style, and the speech rendered by Senator. Gorman was much appreciated. Tremain's band furnished the music for those who wished to dance. , In all it was a most enjoyable occasion. In Memoriam. • Died, July 1st, 1889, Willie E. Davis, aged twenty-eight years. The subject of this sketch was the only and beloved child of his parents—their comfort in the present and their hope in the future, when, as advancing age should steal away the strength and vigcr of early life, his strong arm should be tha stay of their declining years, hia voice cheer 4hem as they glided toward the "valley of the shadow." But. God, in his providence, ordered otherwise, and their hearts and home are left desolate. " Yet, in their deep affliction, the remembrance of his filial devotion, his tender and sympatnetic nature, his patient endurance of great suffering, and the assurance that he died trusting in Jesus, will soothe the grief tljat time alone can heal. It is vain to ask why these things must be:— "Let ns be patient! these severe afflictions Not from the ground arise, But oftentimes celestial benedlUons Assume this dark disguise.", "We see but dimly through the mist and vapors* Amid these earthly damps " ' What seem touis but sad, funeral tapers, May be hearln's distant lamps." Richmond, Virginia. July 5th, 1889. Editor DISPATCHr ' When I left Pinckney ] • promised you and several Of th§ readers of yOut valuable paper, that I would write you in regard to Richmond, which is naturally the queen city of the "sunny south.'' Richmond occupies a very pretty anil most picturesque situation. The city is dispersed over a multitude of hills of various sizes. The stately Jame* descends from west to east and is or> sti ucted by a number of small 1813039» clumps of trees, and myriads of rocks', amohg which it tumbles, foams and roars, constituting what are called the falls. The same river at the lower end of the city bends at right angles to the south and winds off seemingly relnctant for many miles in • that direction. Its polished surface is caught here and there by the eye, but is more generally closed from yiew by the luxurant growth of trees along its banks. One cannot but be impressed by the grandure of the scene, as when apparently in the midst of those trees he matches glimpses of the white sails of approaching and departing vessels. Although at present a backward city, probably no other in tho Union can boast of a greater number of more extensive and beautiful parks. I will not attempt to name or describe them all, We have both the East and West End Parks that in point of beauty cannot be sur> passed. Hillsides, that a few years ago were in a crude and unsightly condition with herds of goats and cattle browsing upon them, have been handsomely terraced and turfed and are now smiling with rare flowers and shrubbery. From Chimborazo Park— a lovely spot—there is an elevation sufficient to enable one to. see the harbor of the city and to open up splendid views on both sides of the James (and more particularly on the south side) that can seldom be excelled. Libby Park, a name that has become and ever will be historic, is a perfect gem in its natural beauty and attractions. Walled in by an elaborate fence of shrubbery and covered with beautiful flowers, it presents a most beautiful appearance. Rolling at the foot of this park is the placid James fringed in with the willow and other wild growths where birds with musical notes . can be heard at all times. Shield's Park, in the West End, contains nearly. ona hundred acre3. It is handsomely ornamented with shade trees, shrubbery, flowers and a minature artificial lake. This is the largest park belonging to the city, and I think Richmond evinced much wisdom in buying it. The importance of/this park i-; already felt and thousands of the city people visit it daily in pursuit of pure air and rest. The fast going switchback gives one a 'through ride for a nickel; and refreshments of all kinds can be obtained on the grounds. I must not forget to mention Gamble's Hill, Monroe and Capitol Parks that are held in high esteem and are visited by all classes. But if one has spare time and wishes a fV.v hours of real pleasure, let him take the Gondola Chimborazo at Fulton St. and glide down the James to Warwick Park; seven miles distance. Nature has here with a bountiful band prepared everything for the pleasure and comforts of man. The giant oak stands upon the river hank towering amidst the clouds while trees of smaller crowth afford' cool and delightful shade. If one is thirsty the cold pure spring water is at his feet, and seats beneath the shade trees afford him peaceful rest. The mammoth forest, which, at this season of the year appears a wall of green, cannot fail to awaken ones admiration. The Pavillion has a seating capacity for 3,000 people. It has three floors and is 130 feet long by 40 feet wide. This park contains 12"t acres. Four miles below the city is the Government warfleet of Monitors, built on the original Erricson plan. The fleet consists of seven well equipped and strongly built vessels, all of which are' ready at short notice to defend Uncle Sam's people or possessions. It nearly, sends a chill through ones veins as be glides down the river past them anct gazes into the broad mouths of their ugly looking guns. If this letter finds a place in yo columns, perhaps in a future one^ , will attempt a description of the business .jjprtion of Richmond, together* with a description of the farming lands in this vicinity.

William Walter Phelps, who has been made minister to Germany, wan born in New York City in 1839,graduated at Yale in 1860 and a t Columbia law school in 1863, but practised only for a few . years as a lawyer, having ample means of his own. He preferred a political career and h a s been a member of several congresses. He was on the committee on foreign affairs in three successive congresses, where he acquired a knowlege of international questions which h a s been of great advantage to him. President Garfield made him minister to Austria where, although his stay was very brief, his resignation being tendered upon Garfield's death, he succeeded in establishing excellent relations between that country and t h e United States. Quite lately President Harrison appointed him chief commissioner of the American commission sent to Berlin to settle the Samoan question; It is well known how creditably the United States has come out of this ticklish job,and the honor of this is no doubt duo to the lirniness of Mr. Phelps and colleagues. That the republic of Mexico has a future no one can doubt, and one of the signs of its increasing prosperity is the extension of its foreign relations, .No country1 can afford to be isolaiod, as it could a century ago. The world h a s grown smaller since the development of steam navigation, and the discovery of the cicatrical telegraph, and almost t h e solo remaining instance of complete i l l a - tion is the Pit -aim island colony, which can hordly be held up as a model of progress. Mexico has within her borders the d e m o n s of national greatness, and the growth of the federal power is not the least encouraging sign of-her prosperity. Instead of a number of small states continually jealous of each other and often engaged in actual warfare, there is a genuine federal . government, with power to pates laws and en'orce its decrees, and as a result Mexico i.s on the h i g h road to prosperity and to the assumption of her rightful place among t h e nations of the worid. The general election that is to take place in France in September next will witness the culmination of a political discussion that, will soon s t a r t u p in that country. There can be no doubt that, in the minds of many Frenchman, the existing constitution is unsuited to France. The chamber of deputies has made itself supreme without acquiring the necessary sense of responsibility, and has reduced t h e state to a very inferior position. What France needs, they argue, is ii strong { executive, who, wilh his cabinet, might be as independent of the national legislature as the president of the United States is independent of congress. By restricting the power of a parliamentary majority a-nd extending the presidential functions, France, like the United States, it is held, would have not only a strong and durable, but a free government. At any rate the result of the election wjii determine the future of that cotmlry.

STYLISH HABITS F o r H o r s e b a c k Riding-— N e w O u t i n g G o w n s — W a t e r Rigs f o r Girls Fishing a n d Y a c h t i n g . Now that the young summer is with us, the perennial sailor hat appears again on the promenades, the lawn tennis racket is taken down from the hook on which it has hung in winter obscurity, the alpenstock is knotted with fresh ribbons, the b a t i n g cap and stockings are laid out in readiness, the long doable canoe paddles arc excused from further service as portiere poles, the bright colored sun umbrella prepares to act as a beacon light in the matter of beach flirtations, and the sweet girl of the select 400, such of them as are not already off to Europe, button themselves into the nattiest of riding habits and spend their afternoons cantering through the long blossomy bridle paths of Central and Prospect parks or over the country roa.is, where the sunshine is filtered through the June leafage of oaks ami chestnuts, ami where the bobolinks are carroling joyously. Nearly all of the fair equestriennes,wear a few flowers fastened hi the .bodices .of their severe dark-habits—-a-clover head, a sprig of mountain laurel, a wild rose—and eae young girl with a velvet jockey cap has her corsage thrust full of buttercups and daisies. One by one er In pairs or groups they dash by in mounted procession, and the habit of No. 37 is as like the cut and finish to the habit of No. 2 as a couple of peas in a peaspod or two editions of the almond-eyed Chinese baby. One hundred riding habits of one hundred girls of fashion are in all essential particulars identical. Every seam, every fold, every hem is the same; every cross cut, every curve, every device to the exact number of buttons on the sleeve and the queer long coat tails shaped squarely behind. Even in color there is little variety. Sixty per cent, of the riders wear black and 80 per cent, of the remainder are habited in dark bin,'or green. A young girl In a claret habit and cup, who canters about with the zest of extreme youth, is brightly conspicuous, and a slrong,.handsome woman, whose eagfr. quivering horse tosses his silky mane and curves his glossy neck in impatience for a burst of sjK»ed, wears a light gray habit with braided front after the fashion worn by foreign ladies and affected by the Spanish donna in particular. One darkeyed woman rides very badly; she has never been away from her teacher's guidance in the tan bark'rink of the academy l>oforo. Her black habit turns back in rovers at the throat, from beneath which peeps a fold of an English "pink" handkerchief worn over the regulation linen bosom. The beautiful glowing face of a woman who sits as if she and her horse were one, rises above a bottle green habit, whose stand-up collar and bodice revers are cmbioidered with gold braid. Here a habit buttons up to the tin oat and fastens with a whip pin over a white linen collar, there a bodice turns back and away from a starched shiit front with small gold studs and a very mannish cravat in a very conventional tie. One sweet girl with a mass of fair curly hair in a soft Psyche knot under her stiffbrimmed hat pace* by in a double-breasted bodice with frock coat front and double row of buttons, always a becoming addition. A girl with moist red roses on, h e r ! breast shining like a star weais a boclk-e with roll collar and without basque, but shaped over the hips and with square-cut. corners. ^ ^ Some women wear the hlgh^Rnglish silk hats and others the ino«ryouthful jockey eafis cut from the^tfaterial of the costume. A sweeM»itfe"d girl pulls up by a hawthopwr" bush and begs her groom to restore le crop which has fallen from her hand. She has a handful of carnations under her chin and on her head a hat with sweeping plumes, a dashing Pi Vernon hat which the other riders frown on and which recalls the .«ilk and velvet skirts of past and gone riding regime. But if there is little diversity in the hue of the costumes there is less in their fitting. Always the cloth is of medium weight and fine but exquisitely firm fn texture. Always the skirt is scant and short, long enough to cover the stifrup toot well, longer appreciably than last year. Always, whatever the color or pattern, always the habit fits like a wet Long Branch bathing suit, i l ugiug to every Hue of the figure, smooth as the peel of an apple, close as the rider's own akin. Under the habit are worn long trousers which tuke placs of petticoats. Thc^e are made of the same cloth as the habit, and are set into a yoke of dark satin at the wakt. They are turned up with a hem at the bottom and finished in the seat with chamois skin. They aiv cut like men's trousers, except that a li'.ile fulluess Is allowed on the inside sta.n of the right leg where it goes over the pommel, Some of the riders no doubt are wearing trousers of elastic jersey webbing and some of those who take fences in the hunts on Long Island wear knee breeches of the knlckcrbocker pattern. All the best costumed of the riders have had their habits diaped on their own stddles. To insure the g atvl'ul fall of the skirts one V is taken out of the fore part over the kuee and one extending from the waist almost to the kuee; this relieves the lap of surplus stuff aud shapes the body part of the skirts easily. See that pink cheeked damsel bend in mock salutation till her yellow roses mingle with the horse's mane. She is riding without corset, as all the best tailors recommend this seasou. A shaped corded btuid is the new substitute which supports the loins; and there is far greater freedom of seat and action. Safet.t is greatly increased, if such a paltry matter is to be considered. Stout women continue to brace, themselves with corsets, but v.o great number of stout women ride. The stirrup strap has at last ousted the awkard and unwieldly bags of shot or lead with which the hem of the skirt has so long been weighted, and "which frequently irritated or frightened the horse. Some good riders wear buttoned gaiters of dark cloth, but boots are more correct, and the conventional riding boots are made of morocco and patent leather, two materials always, and reach to the knee. Some few women who are going on western vacations are having riding habits made on the .Tenness Miller divided skirt principles, for in the valley of the Yosemite and among the Colorado canyons women must use all the advantages which nature originally gave them and ride auricle or leave the chief glories of mile high precipes unseen. It is hard to turn from the trampling of hoots and the tossing of silky manes and the arching- of curved necks, but in June the bathers alwajs begin to demand attention. The bathing gown about as urgently as any iharacterin the country demands vindication. Allowing for exceptions, it is a much abused article of attire. An amateur photographer has an interesting Brighton Beach picture. Two young girls are emerging from the water and an indefinite number of men arc crowded close to the show nothing to alarm the fishes. The *kirts are short and girdled. Most of the modish suits have elbow sleeves and are matched by coquettish bathing caps of oiled silk or bright colored kerchiefs. BATHING OOWNS FOK 1SS9. Black stockings and sandals are preferred. A fair proportion of the suits are sleeveless and a new bathing corset is in the market. The fishing gown is something new. The pole and basket will be fashionable this summer. All the summer girls are devoting their energies to trouting gowns. A pretty example has a full grown front of fine yellow serge, tied at the waist by a girdle, and a redrngote of gray green in the same material—the only stuff that will honestly endure water. Anchors are embroidered ad libitum, and a sailor hat or helmet completes the costume. A picturesque yachting dress Is of silver gray surah with wide collar of blue turning away at the throat, blue cuffs and blue girdle, gray y arching cap with blue cord. Day by day the tennis gowns multiply. They are made this year with full skirts laid In accordion plaits or more rarely tucked. They have seldom any draperies, a ribbon, sash or girdle supplying all the finish necessary. Plaited skirt of scarlet surah and blouse of white surah, jockey cap of scarlet makes a bright costume which would be equally effective carried out in serge. Blue silk blouse, white silk kerchief and cults, whiter felt hat and f tucked shirt of white .flannel is another successful toilet. Pinkish gray serge accordion skirt is the'basis of a third trimly simple tennis gown. With it is worn a blouse of white crepe and a small pearl gray straw hat trimmed with folds of white crepe and pink carnations. Cool yellow with lettuce green sash and green stockings and hat is perhaps the most fashionable combination. ^ " " " FAPUTOS'S FOR R I P I N O . edge of the breakers to observe the spectacle. One girl's head is turned toward the. sea, the, other looks straight in front of her, and if a photograph recorded colors her cheeks would probably show crimson. As a rule the trouble is not with a garment which in these days of athletics when women learn swimming, can't, for safety's sake, afford much length or bulkiness of drapery, and which, when wet, can only be hindered by the cramping expedient of wearing corsets in the water from making some revelations as to figure. Occasional instances to the contrary notwithstanding, the bathing suit needs reform much less than do the beach loungers, whose conduct is making the most healthful of summer sports unfashionable among fastidious women. Tho bathing outfits thus far exhibited A R e m a r k a b l e M o t o r P l a n t . A novel application of electrical transmission is being made at the Nevada mill of the Comstock mines. A head of water of the height of 163() feet, after leaving a wheel is carried down the main shaft of the Chollar mine and delivered upon six wheels, which operate dynamos in a chamber excavated at the bottom of the shaft. The dynamos in turu operate motors in the mill above and a wonderful economy of power is attained. Rival t o t h e E l e c t r i c Light. The newest rival to the electric light is zirconia, the oxide of zirconium, a metal found in North Carolina. Over a bunsen burner is fitted a glass chimney, in which is suspended a hollow cotton wick saturated with zirconia in the form of a white powder. When the gas is turned on and a match is supplied, the wick is immediately consumed, but the znreonia remains as. a thin delicate snow white hollow column, which heats white hot and glows like an electric light and seems almost t3 last forever if it does not get broken.

With highly expansive engines, high pressure steam, steel boilers and steel framing, 20-horse poorer is developed for each ton of weight, including the water in the boilers. This is most extraordinary, and it requires no great stretch of the imagination to see such an engine sustaining itself in the air. E l e c t r i c a l C e n s u s M a c h i n e .

T h « S a b b a t h W a s M a d e f o r M a n d N o t M a n f o r t h o S a b b a t h . ~ The "civil Sabbath movement" is a fcenn applied to a widespread effort that is beiutf made to secure by legislative enactment a more strict observance of Sunday as a day of rest from all worldly or non-religious businea3. The laws of most of t h e states recojft; nize Sunday aud prohibit the carryir/g on upon that day o* many sorts of busi~ nesa. An effort is being made to secure from congress an entiro stoppage on Sunday of all national business, eueh. as the postal operations, the transportation of tho mails and the movement of interstate trains and all shipping. Since the constitution of ths Uuited Suites expressly forbids the enaction of any laws forcing religious o unees upon the people it is ob that the question of Sunday laws be confined wholly to their econodrft; and political relations. Sunday, which many persons coufuse, somo through ignorance and somo through policy, with the ancient Hebrew Sabbath, is a religious day with all sorts of Christians the world over. There is, however, no uniformity in the methods of its observance. With some denominations Sunday is a feast day, a season, of cheerfulness, of hospitality and rejoicing. W i t h others it is a day of penitence and gloom. There are matters, however, which the law cannot consider, I t cannot undertake to enforce uniformity in tho -religious observance of this day. I t can go no further than to protect each denomination in its' religious peculiarities. More than this the constitution declares shall not bo done. The consideration of Sunday by tha law-making power must be wholly confined to its civil uses. It has beon found desirable that working people may have periodically a day of rest in. which they can bo protected against the exactions of merciless and rapacious employers. If it were desired to ^ivQ them one day in each seven t h e sanctity attributed to Sunday could have no influence with t h e law-makers save that the choice of that day for a season of rest would meat the convenience of t h e entire body of Christian!. Sunday having been so Chosen, it only becomes necessary to inquire how far tho prohibition against tho ordinary business of daily life shall be carried. As for ourselves, wo do not desire to restrict Sunday rest in any reasonable way, but do not ltt anything be done in the promises to oppress the religious privileges of somo or to oromote the religious observances of others, or to force religious observances upon any ngainfet their will. Do tho people desire to have all the Sunday trains and steamboats and all the Sunday street cars stopped? Do they desire that post office and telegraph ollico shall be closed on Sunday? Do they desire that all pleasure gardens, pic-nic grounds and place oi amusement shall bo closed on Sunday? Let tho people decide this for themselves; but let it be distinctly demonstrated that such measures are taken to give tho people needed rost because the pooplo through their lawgivers demand it. There is much popular confusion concerning t h e Hebrew Sabbath which was celebrated on Saturday, tho seventh day of tho week, and tho Christian Sunday, which is observed on the first day of tho week. T h e great originator of the Christian religion declared that the Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath, and he demonstrated his meaning--'by divers acts which were considered in violation ol tho Sabbatli by the Jews. The flrBt day of the week, which wa3 hallowed by the resurrection of Christ, has ever since been observed as a day of rejoicing by many branches of Christians. It does not appear that Christ ever laid any injunction upon his followers tc amalgamate this day with the Sabbath of tho Jews; but on tho contrary, som« early Christians^adhering to the anci Hebrew usages observed both t h # enth and first days of t h e w'eefcfc I cording to their peculiar merits. But _ these remarks have nothing to do with t h e proposition to enact a national Sunday law. I t must rest wholly upon civil and secular considerations, and just what enactments are desirable and what would be burdensome a n d tyrannical will have to be considered, each in turn. We are in favor of giving tho p e o p l e the relief from hardship and o gion tho law can accomplish. ? None can have more r e v e r e n t regard for rollgion and piety than wo, and for this reason we desire ta see tho entire business of legislating on Sunday rest wholly disconnected » i t h religious questions.

I t ia proposed to erect in their stead well built houses, and to lay out fine broad streets that will let In the air and the sunshine to the inhabitants. Naples is the most thickly populated city in Europe, •and tho q u a r t s to be thua renovated contains now a population of 103,000 or (:00 to the acre. I t Is proposed to reduce this population just one-half. All the people Wow residing in theso slums have received »otice to quit, and when the Work hns been completed the new buildings will probably have au entirely new set of occupants. A new street, a mile and a half long and Bixly feet wide, twice the width of any existing street in Naples, is to oe run through the district now temporarily depopulated. Tho cost of this immeuse imorovement will be enormous and is to be bo'rne largely by the Italian government. The work to bo done involves tho destruction of H i old streets and the widening of V-7 others, tue total or partial destruction of 50 fondacie, or slums, and 5.7 isolated groups or houses. The payments, which will have to bo made to the owners of the houses to be torn down for their appraised value, will aloue amount to#18,750,- 000. Add to this t h e cost of tho work of demolition und of the new streets and squares to bo laid out, and it will be seen that this is the most expensive piece of house cleaning ever undertaken. Although the public inauguration of this great enterprise took place over a week before whon Kiuir Humbert and his son,the prince of Nuples, went from Rome to take part in the ceremonies attending it, t h e real work only bejran July 1, when nearly 1\!,000 laborers were sot to work tearing down the filthy old rookeries in the doomed quarter. This improvement, it is expected, will take four years to complete, but, when finished, it will make the city QUO of the most desirable, irom a sanitary point of view, in Europe, instead of what it now is, the worst. These improvements have been In contemplation ever since the great cholera epidemic of 1864, which sp thoroughly demonstrated their necessity, but it was not until two months ago that the Italian parliament passed a bill authoring the work.

T h e Wince of Wales and his sons received the eb.aU at (.Jravescnd and accompanied him up tho river to the Westminster 1'alaco stairs.

The shah was very affable. ^•Rsser-de-Doen,' Shah of Persia, is now sixty years old and has reigned iu Persia sinco'lMS. where his rule has been mudorute and popular, but the poor man is very much bot.hercd, owing to the geographical si.uatiou of his country between India and Russia, If he givrs any commercial advantages to one o< untr.y tho other immediately demands larger concessions.

An explosion of tiro damp occurred in a coal pit at St. Etierme to-day. Three hundred miners are entombed. A later dispatch says that 200 miners were killed by the explosion. Two pits were affected oy the explosion. One of these is iuqndated, the other is on tire* To:; of the miners who were taken out alive are so severely injured that they will probably die. Sixty horses employed ia the mine were burned to death. The news of the disaster spread quickly, aud the mouths of the pits were soon surrounded by crowds of relatives and friends of the imprisoned miners. Many heartrendiug scenes were witnessed when the bodies were brought to the surface. All "hifrve probably perished. A number of bodies have been taken from the mine. . Dervishes Killed.

His goods are never allowed to deteriorate, no m a t t e r what t h e demand tor t h e m may be. T h e wisdom of Ids policy is demonstrated by the e n o r m o u s business which he has developed.

The books of the g o v e r n m e n t are "closed annually on J u n e 30, and this year the date was looked forward t o with unusual interest. The office seekers about the hotel corridors spoke •confidentialy of the chansres that would take place '-before J u l y 1, anyhow/1 Despite prediction to the contrary, t h e weighty day has come and ^rone, a n d t h e number of departmental changes were far less numerous than even at the close of the iirst fiscal year of Mr. Cleveland's administration. To say that, the otfice seeker is hot is to p u t it too mildly, he is wild, and he is not cheered by reading the long lists of new diplomats appointed. "Pie," t o t lie average office seeker, is to be found in appointment to offices in this country and he is not to be confuted by the appointment of some r;ealthy gentleman with his hair p a r t e l in the middle t o be envoy extraordinary and minister excruciatingly to the court of Yarboo'. The r e g u l a r office seeker sniffs at the other fellows appearance and snorts at his alleged republicanism. President Harrison, who has bad a pair of eye teeth cut, so far as the h u n g r y are concerned, anticipated the onslaught of J u n e 30, by quietly stealing away to Baltimore d u r i n g the morning hours with tfie ostensible purpose of bringing home Mrs. Harrison. The Agricultural department since it has been raised t o the dignity of having a representative in the cabinet is more than ever before the recipient of the attentions of cranky people everywhere, who imagine that the government could issue enough money to make all the people rich and t h a t the government that would stock fish ponds could not, logically, refuse to stock farms. The mail received by the Agricultural department contains daily a thousand odd requests. Everyone has heard of the Congressman, who d u r i n g the last session, received a letter from a blundering constituent reading, "please send me the Agricult u r a l department." And the Congressman was not a bit surprised, but said, t h a t he had often expected t h a t it vfould come to this; ho had been a.ked for the department in detail and now he was not astonished to be required to furnish the whole tiling. And this renitental erroTof this &u"c/<)l ic coTfesr pondent is out-distanced by the appeal of hundreds of people. A man near Mansfield, Ohio, modestly takes the cake. He writes, "I wish yon would send me at once, delivered to Mansfield a pair of horses, two mules, a yoke of oxen, three Alderney cows and a spring wagon and a .sulky plow. Also, some feed; I suppose there are other things you give, b u t I won't bother you now. 1 will see Senator Sherman when I go to town if he is home. He is a great friend of mine. During last election he told me that I could have everyt h i n g in the Agricultural department if I wanted it." The intelligent voter is a creature of curious mental construction, \ F r o m over the sea, come occasionally vague voices, with an idea t h a t the Agricultural department has general control of land and water. An inventor in-Bohemia writes that he is rn^ich distressed by the disaster in the Conem a u g h valley. Incidentally, he mentions that he has invented a means of preventing such floods, and t h a t he would sell i t t o the United States government for $300,000. To show his sincerity he adds that he wants no p a y m e n t until the utility of the system is fully shown and that if the governm e n t is inclined to act fairly be will sacrifice important interests and bring himself and his model to America for inspection, for $2,000. W h a t becomes of all the inquiries propounded t o the various departments? A half are never answered. To reply to all of them would require p much larger force than is at present • • p l o y e d . A large proportion of the Cranky correspondents wish certain laws construed, work that the various bureaus are slow to engage in when n o t necessary. Others ask for things that the village post-master could tell them were unobtainable. A man writes to the Pension bureau to ask "whether or not h e is entitled t o pension" on account of hi* nephew being killed in service. Another wants to know if bis crippled child as well as himself c m draw pension. The questions asked the I'atent Office by inventors and even lawyers unacquainted with the practice is bewildering. The clerk softly tucks such a letter into the middle of the papers in the case to which it refers and says nothing—except that he utters a few low muttered benedictions on t h e writer. The Navy department has decided that to change all the flags now in use on war ships for flags bearing fortytwo stars instead of those- having thirty-eight would be too expensive. So the b u n t i n g will on'y be changed as it wears .out. The appearance of the new flag is not noticeably different from the old. The law about the flag is very indefinite. It simply provides that it shall consist of thirteen alternate stripes of red and white, with a white star for every state on a blue tieid, for a union. " WHURE UYE COMES FROM.

U l A U i l 9 OF IRON." POLISH The sudden advance in the art oi dyeing has been due to the general cause'that has contributed so much to civilization during the last hundred *-*)ars. It has been due to the discoveries in chemistry. Through all the many centuries of history the world knew only of natural dyes, and down to the beginning of the present century, or rather till past the middle of this'eentury, it still busied itself with the discovery of new natural agents. It had found indigo, cochineal, logwood, madder, quercitron bark, sumach, Brazil wood, arid othevvegetable or wood dyes, and it is learned b j various means to be more'or less successful, by the use of chemicals iu a process technically known as mordanting, in making permanent the colors produced by these agents. But it had not learned"to distil color from the elements. It could reach only the boundaries of an empire that was not yet won. Finally, tiie chemist Unverdarben discovered aniline, a purely chemical agent, the distillation from coal-tar. This discovery opened the way for an industrial revolution which is perhaps even yet only in the infancy of its movement. This happened iu 182.3. But the utility of the discovery was not known until many years later. It was not until the year IHoH that the tint known as Perkins's purple, a product of aniline, followed soon afterward by aniline red, or magenta, became known. Then the revolution was fairly 'inaugurated, and since tiiis latter dale the advance, has been rapid. All that is most brilliant in color is credited to this new chemical agent. But the body of the art remains unas the wood dye» have more substance and permanency than the aniline dyes. Indigo still forms the basis for blue. The scarlet on the coats of the British soldiery, warranted not to run, is mainly produced from cochineal; madder is the basis for crimson red and turkey red, ami yellow is produced by fustic, quercitron barks or its concentrated extract called tlavine, and from Avignon or Persia!! berries. The mordants remain also,..-unchanged. jChiet among them is the oxide, of tin, called tin spirits by the trade. This tixes the scarlet colors founded upon cochineal; but alum i.s used as a mordant for crimson rod, and cherry red is produced with a tin mordant for ammonical cochineal. Turkey red is produced from madder on an aluminous basis. Thus ran the formula iu the old art of dying, and thus it ruus still. Aniline is rather a reinforcement than an independent agent. Prussian blue, however, is purely a chemical product, and us discovery anteuateu me discovery of aniline colors. But after the production of the simple or primary colors comes the prodution of the infinite variety of tints that go to make up the total used in the industrial arts. In this work the process of the dyer dilTers from the process of the painter rather in the means of execution than in the principles ou which he works. Does the dyer wish to produce, a green fabric? He may mix indigo (blue) with fustic or .quercitron bark (yellow), handling a t the same time the mordants in accordance with the teachings of the best experience, and the result will bo of the desired color. Does he want orange? The dyes that produce yellow and red will give him an orange fiber, and by the same process of combination h e may have purple, violet, mauve, gray, drab, black, or any one of M. ChevreuTs 15,000 chromatic tints. But he should be a man with a trained eye, and a person who is color-blind will hardly make a dyer.—New York Sun. One of the brightest and most earnest of the students at the Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville was formerly what is known as a "street fakir." He finds that his experience in lauding the virtues of patent medicines before street crowds has been of great help in developing his eratorioaJ powers of the pulpit. IS THE BEST.

Gleaned from the papers of this County aud surrounding country. Chelsea needs a lock-up, *o bays the Herald. The walls for the new court house have been commenced. The South Lyon Picket has adopted the "casb-in-advauce" system. There were 289 births and 147 deaths in Livingston county during 1888. • The teachers' normal clays began last Monday at the new ward school, building in Howell. A half interest of the Ann Arbor liegister has been sold to S. A. Morgan. Success to the new firm. Oscar W. Babcock, an old resident of Brighton, died at his home in that village on Monday of last week, a-ged 64 years. Miss Etta Smith, one of the teachers in the Howell schools, has gone to Lake Geneva, Wis., lo perfect her studies in music. During the month of June W . N . Snedicor of Howell, bought and shipped 49,876 dozen of eggs, or nearly live car loads. The Excelsior thinks that it would be a good idea for the citizens of South Lyon to purchase the idle pickle factory building and convert it into a cheese factory. Now that dog-days are coining what is to be done with the worthless dogs that throng our village streets?—Chelsea Herald, Use your shot gun on 'em. It is said that in a still night the wheat Louse can be heard at work. It makes a low hnlming noise. It can read the music better than the words. Instead of singing "In the Sweet Byand- by," it sings i-ln. this wheat now.1 The Livingston Democrat says: "Hamilton Smith, an inmate of the county house, was adjudged insane by the Probate court on Monday, and on Tuesday was taken to Pontiac asylum by Homer Galloway, keeper ef the county farm." Last Friday Will Devereaux and mother of Green Oak, started for Northville on a load of wool, and when on the base line their horses became frightened and ran away. Mrs. Devereaux and Will were both thrown from the wagon and badly bruised and the road was woolly for nearly a mile.— South Lyon Picket. T. R. Staley has upon his farm a natural curiosity. Growing upon hard land is a tamarack tree.about six inches in diameter. At the base of the tamarack is growing a thrifty young hickory about three inches in diameter, which clincrs to and winds around the tamarack after the manner of a grapevine. This freak'of nature has been christened "the fusion tree."—Livingston Democrat. One of the heaviest rains ever witnessed in this county fell in North Brighton last Thursday afternoon. leveling wheat to the ground and doing heavy damage to other crops. Although the rain lasted but a short time, the streams in that v;cinity were swollen to several times their natural size, flooding marshes and all low lands along their banks. Acres of spring crops were under water at a depth oi several inches—Brighton Citizen. "Old Grimes is dead" has been sung so often that everybody has come to believe that Grimes had really parsed away from this scene of political excitement and sought a brighter world where postofnees are unknown. But the legend is now authoritively denied. The song is a lie, Grimes is not dead although his competitors for tho postoffice may wish he was. Andrew D. Grimes has been recommended as postmaster 'of Stockbridge.—Ann Arbor Argus. It has been reported in some of the papers in this county that R. C. Reed of Oceola, has resigned the secretaryship of the County Union Sunday School Association, but such is not a fact We are happy to say. A better or more able man for the position could not be found. Clark's eyes have improved so much of late tfcat be feels he can continue the Work uninterrupted in the future. His friends will hope so at least.—-Livingston Republican- Early one morning about two weeks ago, a negro came through Bright* n and took breakfast at a farm house just out of town. He claimed that he had walked from Detroit during the nijiht, and Rave for reasons, that he had had a fight with a man on the evening betore and did not know whether he bad killed him or cot, but hadleft there to escape arrest. Sheriff AlcCabe was in town last week and found that this man answered to the description of the negro who killed a man in Windsor by hitting himon the head with a neck-yoke, at about that time. A reward of $200 is now out for his arrest.--Brighton Citizen. Mr. Norman Boyd died suddenly at his residence, in Cohbctah, early Wednesday morning, of heart disease, aged 63 years. He did his usual araouDt of work on Tuesday and sat with the family until about nine o'clock in the evening when be complained of feeling faint. He removed his shoes and lay down saying he was sleepy. About one o'clock it was thought that he was sleeping too long and an attempt was made to arouse him, but it proved inefectuai. A physician was immediately sent for but death reached the house before him and his services were of no avail. Sir. Boyd settled in Cohoctab about 50 years ago and has been a continual resident since that time. He was an honorable, upright man and commanded the respects of his neighbors.— Fowlerville Review. The grain aphis, or louse, was Undoubtedly imported from Europe. Of late years it has become quite numerous in the New England states, Pennsylvania, New York and some of the western states, w h e e it has done great damage to the wheat crop. They are all females, no males being required and this fact is vouched for by toe best experts. Some have wings and some have not, the latter being the most prolific, it being estimated that they produce four young per day, and these becoming equally prolific in three days the total produced by the family in 20 days will be 20,000,000. No remedy has yet keen found to prevent the destruction of these pests. They are provided with sharp pointed bills with winch they pierce the leaves and stalks and suck the juice of the grain.

Thus headache, tits, dizziness, sleeplessness, etc. are always due to weakness or irritation of the nerves of the brain, dyspepsia, pain, wind, etc, to weakness of the nerves of the stomach; weak lungs is caused by weakness of the parts; biliousness, constipation, etc. to weakness of the nerves of the liver of bowels; pains, irregularity, sterility, to derangement of the uterine nerves.

A BRIEF SORROW, " # # * • CHAPTER 1. SAY, Faith, if that's going on, you'll have to look out for another situation ;as housekeeper, I'm thinking.1 1 "So you have t«ld ma before now,11 replied Faith Freke, with a smile, looking in* the direction indicated— down a gravel-path to the r i g h t of the old gray-stone porch under which she Btood with her companion, whore a lady in a dark gray \civet walking dress was pacing slowly with tho Vicar of Westcott at h e r side, both seeming too engrossed in conversation to think of the sharp eyes of t h e boy and girl they had left at the door. "Well, don't you agree with me?'1 "There's no saying for certain, of course; but, even if it did come to pass, uncle Aylnier would not want to get rid of me on that account—nor, I feel sure, would she." "Oh, no! but I should think you would'n care to stop and play gooseberry! I should think you would r a t h e r come and be my housekeeper!" Faith Freke smiled -again, flushing through her clear dark skin. Tom Berkeley htvl more t h a n once told her laughingly t h a t if ever hor u n d o got married she would have to become Mrs. Berkeley, She was the Vicar's niece, and had kept house for him ever since she came to 'the vicarage on the death of her widowed mother, four years since, when she was a quiet shy child of thirteen, old in mind and manner through the early responsibility that had been thrust upon her during her mother's lingering illness, yet childish in appearance. Tom Berkeley of Wcscott Manor was Faith's senior by one year—a tall, slight and singularly handsome boy of eighteen, woo, from the lirst appearance of the .little maid, had been her friend and .champion, in spite of his careless idle.life and the bad character lie bore in the neighborhood. '•Well, 1 wonder how long they are going to be?"1 -he- said, wheeling round again to look at the two nowdistant figures. ^-Should you think he's proposing to her. Faith? lie looks in earnest, doesn't h e ? " "You had belter ask her whon she come back,'1 replied Faith, laughing. " A r e yon going to the S.ephensons' on Friday, Tom?'1 The boy made a grimace. "Guess not. I'm not cut out for that sort of thing.'' "Oh, you a 1«—as much as any one!"—with a quick glance at his handsome, delicate, yet spirited fa.e. "Only you never no anywhere." "And you.think I want licking into shape, e h ? " "T think it would do you good to mix with your neighbors sometimes, like other peoplr." Faith admitted frankly. "And this isn't a ball or anything of importance—only just a little dance because the Stevensons have ft friend from London slaying with them and want to amuse her. You might just as u\ell come. ' "If I did, would vou dance with me?" "Of course—;if you asked m e . " " I shouldn't ask anybody else—I Apn't like si range young ladies; and thflj wouldn't like like me, I'm s u r e " V.««But they won't be s t r a n g e r s : they *•'" Will all be old friends, except the Stepbensons' visitor." "They'll all look at me out of tho soraers.of their eyes!" "Oh, ,no, they wouldn't! They would lie very pleased to see you." "They'd think 1 was g"oing to turn over a new leaf." "Well, that would be a very good thing to think.!'1 '•Now, Faith, don't you begin! I -.. •''.'•-Jftt enough from other folks." ^ . " I ' m sure I don't want to p r e a c h , \ j J R i m ; hut I cannot bear to neo you I*- twisting your time when you nw.ght be ^ioing so much.." •"Nonsense! It will be all r i g h t -when W a r i n g conies home from Africa and helps me to get a commission. I shall have enough to do then." "But that is all go uncertain.

" " ? • « * ; but if you " But seeing tfcfcekmd of impatience that begun to f»ather on his brow, she checked herself, and said simply, " I hope you may, some day." "All of them hero think t h a t I am in a hopeless slough of idleness and wickedness,'" he went on; " b u t w h a t better ambition could I have than t h a t of following in tho stops of my forefathers, and making the old name, which is forgotten by the world now, famous Again?" "But, dear Tom, you are hardly going the way to fulfill t h a t ambition,"' Faith ventured to say. "Fiddles.icks! i o u ' r o only a girl, Faith, and you don't understand, I'm not pretending to do anything now. I'm just enjoying myself, and t a k i n g things easy before I go to work." Faith could have said a good deal more; but she knew Ton: could not stand much even from her, so she refrained. » "Well, will you come on Friday?'1 she questioned as tho Vicar and Mary Tregelles drew near. "Perhaps—I'll see. But you won't like dancing with me—I h a v e n ' t danced since 1 don't know when, and I •dare say I have forgotten all about -it." "Oh, yes, I shall!" declared Faith, •with a calm confidence and perfect truth. "Well, 'I will tell them at the sewing school of your kind offer," said the Vicar, in clear distinct tones, as he and his companion came up to the porch; "and 1 am sure there are many who will be glad to take advantage of it." Tom nudged Faith—an expressive nudge, conveying a vast amount of scornful incredulity as to the mothers* sewing school having formed the only, or even the chief subject of the tete-ateto in the faint autumn sunshine. The boy and girl glanced at the pair with keen eyes that, were quick to note the great golden chrysanthemums in Miss Tregelles' delicately-gloved hand, which had been plucked and given to her in the course of the stroll down the gravel path. The Vicar was a tall man of about forty—not what would be called handsome, but very aristocratic in appearance, with close cropped brown hair showing a little under his clerical hat, and a short thick, "wellgroomed" brown beard and moustache. lie had a hirge aquline nose, which Tom had made Ihe joke of the village. He had a long striding step, and his head was thrown back with an unconscious hauteur, which, together with his somewhat r e s e r v e l manner, had gained him the epithet of " p r o u d " among those who did not know him well. But his personal friends and near neighbors and the poor in his parish united in telling a different talc. Mary Tregelles was under the surface of which so agreebly her uncle hold; 'and pie would have said. The subject of h e r eulogium quite justified it. Tom Berkeley was at all time* a r e m a r k - ably handsome ladi but now, in evening dress, with his light brown h a i r brushed smooth and tho bright gaslight enhancing every charm of his delicate fascinating face, he attracted every eye. Ho wa^ tall, lithe and active, and had delicate teatures, an exquisite y clear skin that would have made the fortune of a London professional beauty, and large, brilliant blue eyes with black eyebrows and long black lashes. Faith Freke might well be proud of her partner for the dance. She was no beauty herself—only an insignificant little girl in a w h i t i muslin dress, with snub features and a pair of round checks into which t h e heat or the excitement had brought a very pretty glow t h a t night. When the polka was over, Mrs. Stephenson, a portiy widow-lady with three daughters to marry, came bustling up with a very different expression on her face from t h a t with which she had greeted Tom on his entrance. She was fresh, in fact, from a conversation in which she had been taking a part on tho other side of the room. " W h a t a handsome boy!" her visitor had said to her, as she sat between two ot the daughters of the house. She A Day in a Russian Prison. From George Ken nan's illustrated article in t h e J u n e Century on 4 ' T h e Convict Mines of Kara," we quote the following: "Hard-labor convict* at Kara receive a daily ration consisting of t h r e e pounds of back rye-bread; about four ounces of meat, including the bone; a small quantity of barley, which is generally put into the water in which the meat is boiled for the purpose of making soup; and a little brick tea. Occasionally they have potatoes or a1 few leaves of cabbage; but such luxuries are bought with money made by extra work, or saved by petty 'economies' in other ways. This ration seemed to mo ample in quantity, but lacking in variety and very deficient in vegetables. The bread, which I tasted, was perhaps as good as t h a t eaten by Russian pea-jants generally, but it was very moist and sticky, and pieces taken from the { center of the loaf opuld be rolled back into dough in one's hands. The meat, which I saw weighed out to the cjnvicts after it had been boiled and cut up into pieces about as large as dice, did not have an inviting appearance, and suggested to mv mind small refuse had only just come down from her i scrap* intended for use as soap-grease, room, a n d saw Tom go by with Faith The daily meals of the convicts were i r e k e , arranged as follows: in the morning, "Oh, yes—Tom is handsome!" said a f t e r the roll-call, or 'verification,' Louisa, the eldest of " t h e three breakfast, consisting of brick t?a and reserved too cheerfulness brightened Berkeley's housetho.- e two, who seemed so friendly now, had held shyly aloof for some time after her coming, just twelve months since, to live at the manor during the ab.-ence of her brother, Lieutenant Tregelles, at the seat of the war in Zululand. She was a beautiful, calm, mild-tempered woman, with dark, wavy hair, soft eyes and a fair, pure complexion, and, having, independent means of her own, besides her attractions of beauty and disposition, :die had not reached the age of twenty-eight without having received n v r e than one offer of m a r r i a g e from rash young men who could not or would not M'C that her gentleness only veiled indifference. So far, Mary Tragelies had remained fancy free. "Now I must say good-bye until this evening," she said, including them all in her pleasant smile as she paused in front of the old stone porch. " W h y , what's up this eveu.ing?" enquired Tom. "Nothing for you, doar—only the women's annual tea in the schoolroom. Faith and Agnes and I are going to h e l p . " "Faith.-have you the book ready for Miss Tregelles?1 asked the Vicar, and Faith handed him the volume she had been holding, "You will allow me t.> accompany you?" h e said to Mary as he handed the book to her. ;*I have to go past the m a u a r gates. Tom o&nde another grimace at Faith expressive of disgust at his position of "daisy-picker" during the walk home; and Faith laughed and was still smiling when Miss Tregelles turned round to remind her to be down at the schools in good time. * * * * * * "Well, here 1 am, you see, F a i t h ! " "Yes—I am so glad'."' "More than Mrs. Stephenson is, then! She looked quite scared. People will begin to be careful how they include me in their invitations just for politeness' sake after this!" "Nonsense, Tom! They are only surprised to see vou because vou never go anywhere. How nice you look!" Faith Freke glanced at him critically and admiringly—fondly, some peo- 0 r a c e s , " as Tom had mockingly dubbed the Stephenson girls. She objected to being called by her baptismal name, or even to having it abbreviated to Louie or Loo—nothing less than " L o u i s e " met her approval. "But he is so shockingly wild!" she added. "Interesting!" returned her friend, her eyes lighting up. "Very—when he appears one day with his a r m in a sling, after a night's poaching and a scuffle with the 'gamekeepers, and the next with two black eyes and " "'What a shame to spoil such beautiful eyes." " I ' G S ; Tom isn't often so.presentable as he is this evening. He has got such a temper, in addition to his other c h a r m s , " observed Fhylis, the second Miss Stephenson, a little wider awake than her elder sister, " t h a t , not being able to bear the slightest contradiction, he is always getting involved in quarrels with the disreputable companions with whom he spends nearly all his time—he knocks their teeth down their throats for half a word, and gets a black eyg or a broken head in e x c h a n g e . " "Oh. now I am charmed! I do so admire a racket! Mrs. Stephenson," —turning to her hostess with clasped hands and an ingenuous air of eagerness— "you really must introduce him to me! Now do, to please me!" "Oh, certainly, my dear." returned the plump, placid-looking widow, who however, under her calm .exterior kept a very shrewd and sharp lookout for possibilities of settling her three not very attractive daughters, and was quite willing that Louise's friend, who had come upon the scene at a r a t h e r inopportune moment with her London toilcne"STOTc^"CT~TTC"r5onirr charms, should amuse herself with poor, idle, handsome Tom Berkeley r a t h e r than unsettle the minds of any of the few eligible men in the neighborhood, particularly that of Mr. Bowland, a young widower, who had been induced finally to settle his heart upon her eldest—the fair Louisa. "Tom might be worse,"—indulgently. " M r s . Berkeley is not his own mother, and he meets with no sympathy at home, which is «o bad for a young man you know; and his cousin, Mary Tregelles, who has lived with t h e n the past year and has reached an age when she might exercise a wholesome motherly intluenee over him, seems to think of black rye-bread, was served to the prisoners in their cells. The working parties then set out on foot for the gold placers, carrying with them bread and tea for lunch. This midday meal was e.iten in the open air beside a camp-fire, regardless of weather, and sometimes in fierce winter storms. Late in the afternoon the convicts returned o n ' foot to their cells and ate on their sleeping-platforms the first h e a r t y and nourishing meal of the day, consisting of hot soup, meat, bread, and perhaps a little more brick .tea. After the evening verification they were locked up for the night, and lay down to sleep in closely packed rows on the 'nares,' or sleeping-benches, without removing their clothing, and without making any preparations for the night, beyond bringing in the 'parahas,' or e x - crement buckets, spreading down their thin patchwork crazy-quilts, and rolling up some of their spare clothing to put under their heads. T h e clothing furnished to a hard-labor convict at Kara consists—or should, by law, consist— of one course linen shirt and one pair of linen .trousers, and one gray overcoat every year; a 'polushuba' (pol-oo-shoo-ba), or outer coat of sheepskin, every two years; one pair of 'broduias' (brode nee-yas), or loose leather boots, every three and a half mouths in winter; and on3 p:iir of 'kati' (kot-toe), or low shoes, every twenty-two days in. summer. The quality of the food and clothing furnished by the government may be inferred from the fact that the cost of maintaining a hard-labor convict at the mines is about $.">0 for a year, a -Httlo l o ^ than^aurlexm_£ents a day." Great Sport in Idaho. "Outside of hunting for grizzly or polar bears or buffaloes, when you have lots of them to kill, there is no more exhilarting sport now to be had than going after wild sheep and g o a t s , " said William Kennedy, of Leesb u r g , Idaho. " T h e heights of the Bitter R o o t Mountains are covered with snow, and there are plenty of big horn and white wild goats up there. Every winter we go up there and have a hunt. It is no trouble to get this kind of game, especial I v the goats. The nothing but running after the Vicar; j M T h o r . n l l r 0 a l i l t I e harder.to get and so the poor lad is left to go on unchecked in his wild ways." And then Mrs. Stephenson, having done what s h t could to arouse interest in and sympathy for the "detrim e n t a l . " went to fetch him. leaving her gvuvt pressing her lips together to hide the smile that would force its wav as she looked over at Mary Tregelles. The widow's jealousy was very palpable. TO BE CONTINfED. Wisdom From a Child. In Stamford. Conn., two children attended service at the church of which Her. Mr. Vail is pastor. Mr. Vail repeated the words: " T h e r e is nowhere, no place, that Cod is not," In an audible whisper Pauline said to h e r brother: " H e don't know about it, does he? But I'll tell him after c h u r c h , " J u s t as the preacher descended the pulpit steps a breathless little figure caught hold of him and said, pantingly: "You don't know about God, Mr. Vail, and I must tell you. He isn't everywhere like you think he is, 'cause the Bible says: •God is not in the thoughts of tho wicked.1 That's why he doesn't always get into my, but I am going to try to be good this week, so He'll come." And as Mr. Vail took the bright-eyed little one into his arms she added naively: "You don't know everything, do you, Mr. Vail?"—Kingston Freemam. require more skill. These are the things vou read about in vour early school books, that, like the chamois, leap from lofty heights and light on their heads, not damaged in the least, by reason of the great horns which they have. These mountain sheep weigh from 300 to Mod pounds each. They are strong, stalwart fellows, and well muscled, and their necks, though long, are carried well up over their forelegs, so that the perpendicular from their ponderous horns is well preserved. The horns themselves, with the head, weigh from fifty to seventy-five pounds. The female is smaller than the male and has the smaller horns, resembling those of the goat. This is the animal kuown by naturalists as the ovis mon tana, and it is only found in the Bitter Boot Mountains, in Boarhead county, Mont., and in the same range of mountains over in Idaho. Last winter I s h o t and killed ten of these big horns and already this fall I killed seven. They are splendid eating, tasting something tike venison. We ascend the Black Fork of the Salmon river, and it is right on tho very top of the mountains that vou find tho big horn and the mountain goats most numerous. The goat is tho aploccros montaans of zoology. It has jet black, polished, slender horns, much liko the chamois, and is clothed with long white hair. It h a s also a tolerably long bushy white tail and beard. These goats are exceedingly active, and if they see the hunter b e t o ^ J w sees them they will elude hinajTijlm It is pretty nearly impossible m f e c ^ t l M f n . Being white, they are h a r d ^ l p qpt in the snow, and the only way t a ^ * * to keep a watch out for their horns. They roam in bands of from ten to twenty, while not often more than three of the sheep are found together. T h e g o a t meat is very much like mutton. I am an old resident of Leesburg, which is just up from the Gibbon Valley. For years past whenever the snow gets very deep in the Bitter Root mountains, the big horn sheep and goats come down to feed. It is at such times t h a t we made our biggest hauls. Going after them in the mountains one is obliged to wearsnowshoes. We usually take two kinds—the web foot ones in going up and the Norwegian, or long ruuner shoes, in coming down. The only way to kill this kind of g a m e is to watch your chance. Hounds are of no avail. You can't bring anything to your assistance, but must depend alone on your own individual skill. "A light step, keen eye and as good long range rifle as can be had are tho essentials. I went hunting for goats and sheep the last of October Far up on a crag on the side of old Mount Williams I saw what appeared to be a little speck, covered by two straight, short lines of black. I knew it was a goat, but he was so far away on his dizzy eyrie in the sky that I was afraid I would miss him. I had a magnificent 38 caliber Henry rifle, however, and I took as careful aim as possible. Tb'i two dark lines, followed by a fleecy body which showed against a blue cloud, turned a double somersalt, it seemed, fifty feet out from the crag, and shot down into the gorge, almost one thousand feet below. I had a. Wearisome trip getting down into the deep canyon. I had t o , d o d g e fallen trees and rocks and avoid deep ravines*, but, finally, I got there, and ho was as dead as a mackerel. I had made a center shot, and taken him through the heart. I got four goats that trip, all of them very fine ones. John Kincald and Torn Wilson, of Salmon City, who were with me, also got tiva or six goats and throe mountain sheep. We could not begin to pack the meat down, of course, so we merely took the h a m s and other choice parts, beside tho skins. Both tho big horn and goat skins make very fine robes. They are used in that part of Idaho a great deal. Spread on the floor they make a room excedingly warm and comfortable. A number of English sportsmen have come in over t h e Northern Pacific and spent a good deal of time in the Bitter Boot Mountains during the past two or three winters. They have Killed a great deal of game, but there is plenty of it there y e t Tho biggest wild animal there, is tho elk. The elk we have up'there are JIS big -- as OXJCJL Askio from those in the Saskatchewan country, they have no peers'" on the continent. As to small, game, like timber wolves, coyotes, foxes, beaver and sable, the mountain regious of Idaho are pretty well filled. The country is not settling up fast enough in such localities as to make the game timid. There are many men in the Bitter Root and Sawtooth Mountains who make hunting and trapping a business, and they make good money out of i t They m a r k e t their meat and skins at ILiliey and Ketchum principally, but spend most of tho winter in the wild regions of the mountains, where they have crcciod cabins, and are well situated for a long campaigning."— San Francisco Examiner.
