The count)' vol war In Dnkota. about which very little la known by the public, of which there has been more bluster than blood, is but another evi­ dence that its territorial laws should lie radically changed or that it be given the rights, of a state. JVUmot and Traverse are rival towns. Wilmot has been deprived of its chief attraction by the removal of the records and county busTnees to Traverse, and refus­ es to submit to the decision of the courts as to the legality of the proceed• ings. Whether or not her citizens will attack Traverse with Winchester rities and Guttling guns, will depend entirely upon their ability to obtain the arms. A public camp has been formed, arms have been distributed and the spirit of war is among the j»eople. It has been \ . expected that Traverse would be regulariy invested, that the Integers would throw up entrenchments and that the land of Dakota would again be the cen­ ter of attraction. A blizzard and 2u degrees below zero weather has thus far interfered with the campaign. The march has not Nt-n made and in all ' probability the cold snap will divest the the heroic warriors of a large share of their valor. Ijpkota has been a good deal of a sensational territory, and in order that its attractions may be fully advertised, and that eastern people may not forget her, she spares no pains to ' keep up the interest during the cold I term by a'n entire change of program. No blond will be shed in this war and Traverse will now receive the county seat boom, to which its citizens think j she is entitled. .Perhaps some cold morning her people may arise, to find .their records stolen and some other town, in turn, will have a boom.

In ' the lumber regions the condition of affairs are no better; not more than half the us­ ual amount of logs will be cut this win­ ter. Work is scarce every where .and wages a mere nothing. The building of the railroad—If we get it—may help us a little in this locality, hut the pros­ pects for the future are dark indeed. Governor Begole is evidently im­ pressed with the inconvenience of the state prisoners., growing out of the crowded condition of the prisons. His method of relief is of a character that will cause him to live in their memory as their best friend and benefactor. It has been Add that had not the govern­ or’s stock of blank pardons runout that the prisons would now be empty, thus leaving the officials to be appointed by governor Alger without occupation. But while he has pardoned all* manner of hardened criminals and turned them loose to prey on society, the njan whose only offense was pushing his mother-in­ law down cellar, is still in prison and must stay there for life. Governor Alger is sick. The cause was said to have lieen sitting up late nights raiding the petitions for ap­ pointments' for notaries public. He caught cold and it settled in an old hol­ low tooth. The surgeon pulled the tooth, but the cold had gone further, and aRr. of the jaw bone was taken out and still the cold was there.

The fight for existence has been as fierce as in other days when railroads, steam looms, telephones and I breech of promise cases were unknown. The Spanish treaty has brought the country fuite to face with free trade; and all at once there comes a violent protest against the treaty from the very quarters where the most violent partis­ ans of the doctrines have always iieen found.

Washington, Jan. 2.—The feeling of antagonism lietween the House and the Senate seems to increatie rattier than di­ minish- It has reached a degree in which jarty sentiment and affiliations are sunk in the opposition of one bouse to the other.

Representative Holman sold yesterday tltat under the encroachments of tiie Senate tiw constitutional method of 1 legislation was , being gradually reversed. Half the revenue blits now come from the Senate, whereas, all should originate In the House. Among the Senators the ojiinlon seems unanimous that tiie House is arbitrary and dictatorial, and that unless tlie Senate shall stand linn in the assertion of its rights it must lie content to sit and jmsh only such bills as the.llouM* chooses to send over. The fcqilng does not augur well for the amicable nettlement of the disputed naval appropriation.

A year and a half's trial of “a dollar a year’ subscription price has convinced us that it is a losing game for the pub­ lisher. We do not issue the for fun, but for the money there is in it Our main., object in making the reduc­ tion was to reacji as nearly asXpossible the i>i ottraiur system, avoiding the expense of collections and less from de­ linquents. Our experience proves that subscribers at one dollar a year do not pay up any more promptly than at a dollar and a half, while the dollar and a half is 50 per cent, better to pay running expenses, which with ns range from $50 to Kill per week. We have given the matter a fair and thor­ ough trial, and we that any publisher of a country weekly who sells his paper at one dollar a year is losing money by it, under any and all circumstances. If he publisbed a daily, and could nsathe type once used in the daily for his weekly, as can he dobe by the large city.papers, he could af­ ford to sell his paper at one dollar a year: but not, even then, unless each subscriber paid in advance. . As we have said, we have given this matter a fair trial, and speak from u knowledge of all the facts in the case when we assert that no country weekly can be profitably published ■ at one dollar a year; and no,editor of a country weekly wants to play a losing game any more than do the merchant the banker, the grocer or th'e farmer. When he becomes satisfied that any policy he may he pursuing is wrong, it is his duty 'and business to abandon it' Aside from this consideration; owing to the national pro­ hibition against importing rags, the price, of the paper upon which the printed has lately advanced from one to one apd a half cents per pound. In other words, it costa us. from t> to 9 cents more a year for each subscriber than it pid.' As a matter of fact, a country weekly paper is more than 50 per cent, ata disadvant — ~ —1 as compared ------—’ -with the BJH itage in oust city aapera. As a matter of rights, a country paper ought to have $1.75 to $2.00 if a metropolitan weekly like the I’ost or Free Press gets $1.00, cash in advance No coun^v paper in Michigan, within its own Held, doermore to give id renders the local news, and all the local news, than the Bi-virtR. We say this not toastingly, but wilLask our readers to make any comparisons they wish in proof of our assertion. . ' . . It is the local new* that the subscriber of a country paper wants; what he is willing to pay to get them proves that, they are worth more than $1.00 a year. We know that not one of our readers would ask us to print and fnmieh him the IomI news at an actual low—a small one on eaeh nbscriber it » true, but, yet in the aggregate of 1,777 it amounts tn moHi.

This last class— which, if not technically definitive, will t^rvu for our immediate purpose—is not, we think, a large one. Without halr-splittifig. it may roughly be said that the great majority of those who kill, or try to kill, themselves in those modern times and in civilUed commanities are perfectly wall aware of the nature of the act they are performing or attempting, and do the deed with a. so far, intelligent pur­ pose of escaping from misery that *ec:nN unendurable, or bocaase of somo terror or shame that for the time over­ whelms them. The law is mercifully . interpreted for the sake of survivors; but. .a* a matter nf fact, scarcely one in a hundred of tho so-called cases of ••temporary insanity” are correctly so described. ‘ It is ' heart-breaking or braiQ-tehrir.g trouble that makes men and women long to die or impetuously »eak refuge in death, either in the be­ lief that in dying they will sleep, or that consciousnass wjll end in eternal oblivion. We do not say that there is a ••Jeady defined process of reasoning in all these cases, though in a majority we * believe there is ; but in very few in­ stances indeed is the real inner feeling one which differs greatly from the yearning to escape—anywhere, any­ where out of this misery. The rate at which men and women live nowadays has something to do with this feeling. Boys and girls arc men and women in acquaintance with, and experiences of, life and its so-called pleasures and sor­ rows, at an age when our grandparents were innocent children in the nursery. The young men of the day are blase at iwo or three-and-twentv, the young women enmiyee. Life 'is played, out before ite * meridian is reached, or the burden of responsibility is thrust upon tEe” consciousness at a period when the mind can uot m the nature uf things be com­ petent to cope with its weight and at­ tendant difficulties. All this has been said before. There is not a new word or a new thought in it, and yet it is a very terrible and pressing subject. We can not give it the go-by. “Forced” • rdneatiun commenceu too early .in life and pressed on too fast is helping to make -existence increasingly difficult We are running tbri two-year-old colts in a crippling race, and ruining the stock. If able and impartial observers would make it-their business to ascer­ tain the facts about suicide, they would be <lofng a good and useful work. We believe, not without some data on which to base our speculations, that suicide is increasing, and that the active cause of the evil is weak-minded­ ness,- the result of forced development and premature responsibility. Hasty and too early marriages, too anxious struggles for success in life, too hazard­ ous ventures in bnsiness enterprise, the rush of undisciplined and untrained minds into the arena of intellectual strife, and above all, that swinging of the self-consciousness --pendulum dike -between-excess of rigor in self-con­ trol -and untempered license, which . constitutes the inner experience of too many, are proximate causes of the breakdown or agony of distress which ends Id suicide. The underlying cause is impatience, social, domestic, and per^mnal. of the period of preparation which nature has ordainud to stand on • the threshold of life, but which the haste of “progress” treats as delay. It is npt delay, but development; albeit .thisja a lesson rash energy has yet to learn from sober science. -London I.anSeaneed nnd Its Uses. ■ In tropical climates the little air bladders which support the seawrfteks are of great service, for the nyuises of seaweed are several hundred feet long nnd of considerable height, having stems the thickness of a man’s thigh, nnd branches and drooping stems which suport innumerable forms of animal life, such as corals, crabs, worms of different kinds, together with mosses and weeds of the sea, and being be­ side a place of deposit for innumerable •:KgH of various creatures.

This win­ dow has been in existence for nearly 300 years, and was in some way asso­ ciated with the pipooof land bequeathed to the parish and known as “Pedlar's Acre.” Beyond the suggestion of the name nothing is known of the donor. —There are 144 theological schools in the United States, with 624 iuntruetors and 4,79'1- students. The number of law schools is 47; professors, 229; students, 3,227. Medical schools, 126; frofessors, 1,749; students, 14,536.

Methodists, Baptists, etc. Comparing the figures with thd gen­ eral population it appears that there is in France one Protestant to every srxtythree Catholics. The State pays 782 Protestant pastors, although the total number of the latter is as nigh as 906, of whom by far the greater number (699) belong to the Reformed Church. Paris counts 40,000 Protestants of all sects, and no less than forty-four build­ ings devoted to Protestant services.

Cham- having an extraordinary expertoaaj we feel justified in making the follow­ ing statements: Oar Theory Frovad. First.—We bare held from the be­ ginning that most of the common ailmen ta are caused by kidnej and liver disorders, not primarily by bad blood; that bail blood is caused by temporary or chronic derangement of the kidneys and liver, and that by restoring these .blood-purifying organs to health, we could cure most of the common ail­ ments. Other practitioner^ however, have held that extreme kidney and liver disorders were incurable. We have proved to the contrary in thousands of cases. Safejraoril* A<ain»» Epidemic*. Second.—The kidneys and liver are the sewers of the system, and unless they are kept in perfect working order no amount of public sanitation eau pre­ vent epidemics raging among the peo­ ple. The prudent man, in the winter and spring, will fortify the system against any such possibility. Dr. Koch, the celebrated German scientist and physician says, for instance, that cholera wiU have but little effect, among those who keep the digestive organs and the kidney and liver in healthful operation. Warner’s Safe remedies* are the best scientific curatives and preventives, and should l>e used now as a safe guard against any future scourge. , Scientific Specific*. Third,—We do not cute every known disease from one bottle, for Warner’s Safe remedies number seven scientific specifics, which have been put upon the market, only in obedience to strong public demand. Iteco<iiiv.rcl StandartlK. Fourth.—Warner’s Safe remedies, spite of all opposition, have won the favor of the profession as well as the masses, and are recognized as the lead­ ing standard medical preparations. Fifth.—After six years of unequaled experience, we can give these unquali­ fied guarantees : GUARANTEE I.—Pure and harm­ less. That Warner's Safe remedies are pure and harmless. GUARANTEE II.- Testimonials genuine. That the testimonials used by us so far as we know are bona tide, with a forfeit of 85,(XX) for proof to the contrary. GUARANTEE III.—Curative effects permanent. That Warner's Safe reme­ dies are not merely temporary but per­ manent, in their curative effects and will sustain every claim, if used suffic­ iently and as directed. Sixth.—Special Inquiry among hun­ dreds of our old patients result in une­ quivocal testimony that the cures wrought six, five, four and three years So, were permanent. And most of »e patients were pronounced incura­ ble when they began Warner's Safe remedies. Read a few of thousands of tretimon- Elder James S. Pbbscott, box 262, (Cleveland, Ohio, in 1878 was pronoun­ ced incurable of bright’s disease: in 1879 he began the use of Warneris Safe Cure, and in 1884 he reported: "Health never better; just past 80th year; am an enthusiast foMVarner’s Safe Cure.” R. H. MoMlCHAKL, Emporia, Kansas, in 1880 had intlamatipn of the bowels and a monstrous abdominal tumor. He began using Warner’s Safe Cure. 23 bottles of which, he said July 15th, 1884 “permanently cured me." Miss Helen Leikem, West McHen­ ry. Hl., two years ago used Warner’s Safe Cure and Safe Nervine for com­ plete prostration. August, 1884, she said. “I have never enjoyed such good health." S. A. Gettys, East Liverpool, Ohio, in 1879 was attacked with vertigo and dyspepsia of the worst* kind: he was cured by Warner’s Sate Cure in 1882. and December 5th, 1884, he' reported that he had had no trouble since he was permanently cured“ny Warner's Safe Cure. Rev. James Waxilam, LaPorte, Ind., in 1882 was cured of Bright’s disease by Warner’s Safe Cure, and in 1884 he wrote, “my health is fully restored.” Edwin FAY, of Davenport, In., was cured of bright’s disease and kidney complaint in 1891 by Warner’s Safe Cure. December 4th, 1884, he wrote, “I am now free from kidney disorder." Seventil—It is a source of great gratification to us that Warner’s Safe remedies have been permanently lieneticial to so many sufferers- This pt-rmanency of poiorr oner disease pives them the, most etralted rank, and in this particular they haoe no equal. .

What worthies have been entertained in this enticing place!

The people of Amesbury and of tlie adjoining villages and towns feel a pe­ culiar ownership of their poet; there is scareely a legend of all the region round which he/ias not woven Into his song, and the ^neighborhood fee! not only as if Whittier were their poet, but in some way the guardian spirit, the genius of the place. Perhaps in his stern and sweet life he has bevn so. even as much as in his song. “There is no charge to'Mr. Whittier," once said a shopman, of whom he had made a small purchase, and there is no donbt that the example would have been contagious if the independent spirit o| thepoct would over have allowed it. These Intian summer days of the poet’s life are spent not all in Die places that knew him of old. The greater part of the winter is passed in Boston; a share of the summer always go*y to the White Hills, of which he is passionately fond, and the remainder of tho time* finds him in the house of his cousins at Oak Knoll, in Danvers, still in his na­ tive County of Essex. This is a mansion, with its porches and porticos and sur­ roundinglawns and groves, which seems meet for a peel’s home. It stands in spacious and secluded grounds, shadowed by mighty oaks and with that woodland character which birds and squirrels and rabbits darting, in the checkered sunshino must always give. It is the home of culture and re­ finement, too, and as full of beauty within as without. Here many of the latter poems have been sent forth, and here fledglings have the unwarrantable impertinence to intrude with their cal­ low manuscripts, and here those peste of prominence, the autograph seeaers, send their renftesta by the thousands. Bnt in the early fall the poet steals qui­ etly back to Amesbuiy, and there awaits election day, a period in which heTcligiously believes tliat no man has a right to avoid h ia dutv, and of which he st ill thinks as when he. saw “Akins the street Th* xhiulowa meet Of Destiny, whose band* conceal The mokU of faie That shape the State And make or mar the common weal." Wha( a life he has to look back upon as he site with his fame about him—what storms and whaV delights, what strug­ gle and what victory? With all thedeep and wonderful humility of spirit that he bears before God and man, yet it is doubtful if he could find any one day in it that he would change, so far as his own acts are concerned. It is certain that no one else could find it. In appearance. Mr. Whittier is as up­ right in bearing as ever. Hi- eye fa aH black and burns with os keen a fire as when it flashed over the Concord mob, and sees beauty everywhere as freshly as when he cried with the “Voices fit Freedom” and sang the "Songs of Lahti*;'■ And his smile is the same smile that has won the worship of men. and of women, too, for sixty years and over. Now, it is with a sort of tenderness that people sneak nnd think of him» whose walk will, periiaps, go but little further with their own: not that they deem such vitality and power and spirit can ever ( but that thpy are warned of its apotheosis, as it were, into loftier regions, where his earthly songs shall be turned to the music of the morning stars as they- sing together.—Harriet Prescott Spofiurd, rt» the Critic.

The program of the evening opened by singing. Prayer by chaplain, after which Commander Rich, of Hill Post, installed the officers in the presence of about 300 friends and neighbors. At the close the ladies sur­ prised Col. Armstrong by forming a circle around him, while one .of their number stepped into the circle bearing a very handsome chair. Mrs. John Hall, in a well-timed speech, presented the same. Col. Armstrong, who replied, in a frank way, his thanks to the don­ ors. The crowd then assembled to the dining room, where all did ample jus­ tice to the choice viands. When we criuld eat no more, all returned to the hall, where abort speeches were made, several poems recited, which merited and received the applause of the house. A traveling man, a Mr. White, . added largely to the interest The poem, w ritten and recited by Mr. Stafford, of Bowen, entitled “The Soldier’s Wel­ come" waa highly appreciated by the "Boys in Blue.” All went away feeling that they had been well paid for com-, ing. Mr. P. O. Cartner, on his way home from the social, about one o’clock in the morning met a horse and buggy without any driver. The horse proved to be one that had - been hired from a livery at Wayland to drive to Bradley. Who the man was or what became of him is still unknown. How the horse and buggy got way over into Y'ankee Springs is also a mystery. Mrs. Frank Bixler is visiting friends in Indiana. • , Mrs. T. J. Magee ia on the sick list; also Mrs. Rickard. The latter is some better. The Good Templar lodge of Bowens Mills somehow got lost during the fall campaign. At least it has not been heard from since election. , west Baltimore.

Miss Lizzie is a lovely girl, and her many friends here join in saying: “I do hope she will come again next summer and pass her vacation with us again.” We understand the Democrat has l>een howling because we stated our views In regard to prohibition, We have no means of knowing just what was said, as no pne in this part of the county takes that sheet; but friends have advised us to look the matter up and reply to it. We consider it beneath our notice to reply to a paper that would print the campaign lies of Veter­ an, of Cedar Creek.

The North Johnstown people are greatly excited over the sudden disap­ pearance of a new swell-box Cutter. When last seen it was going toward Hastings, Dec. 38,1884. occupied by the owner and the ixfft Bauer. The owner was seen returning from Hastings Jan. 4th, on horse-back and alone. We don’t think the Bauer is lost because her1 partner seemed to be willing to buy cigars for all the boys. Nevertheless any one giving any information regard­ ing the cutter 1 will be liberally re­ warded. Winnie Webster is sick with scarlet fever.

Saturday evening, a company of hood­ turns started out with the usual aooompaniaments to charivari a couple re­ cently married, commencing by going to the gentleman’s buggy and half fill­ ing it with dirt, and mutilating the robe—all because the gentleman omit­ ted to treat them. The entire perform­ ance was an insult to the decent portion of the community. It seems things have come to such a fine pan, if a lady and gentleman cannot marry without being compelled to treat all the rowdies in the surrounding country. We re­ gret to say they were treated, but not as they should have been, by the arrest of every identical one of them, or a lib­ eral charge of fine shot. Meetings at the M.

Farmers smile to learn that the price of wheat is on the raise. Business with’the farther is very dull, cutting wood is about all they can find to do. Drummer seems to be very sensitive. Jt must be that heels very nervous, or that his system is out of order. He should take soothing syrup. He takes it upon himself to deny the soda story, as he calls it. But it is true, neverthe­ less, as he and everyone else at the Cen­ ter knows. One might tie led to sup­ pose by his article that the girls of this vicinity would even smoke cigars.

Mark Twain has applied to the courts to enjoip his publisher from selling his late* book at a lower rate than the author thinks proper.

I have been called fool so often for aiding the people to have Amp insoranoe and my compensation so meager, that I am not shocked or in the least offended I must say, however, that I can not ootacide with our friend when he impales falsehood, but can simply imply that be places himself on a footing with the prophet when he uttered "In my haste I said all men arc liars," but like the prophet leaves himself subject to those gentle utterances which aaith "Judge not that ye be not judged." There is one part of ow friend’s let­ ter that I am sure no kM hearted per­ son can read without shedding tears. I refer to bis paternal sorrow so pathet­ ically expressed at the fate of the poor Woodland Mutual. From the depths of that grief, how plain and audible must appeal the upheaving?} of that generous^ieart when he reflects upon the terrible downfall and discomfiture of the Ionia, Eaton and Barry Farmers' Mutual which he so plainly foreHtee and foretells. Butbas the darkest night is so often succeeded by theMawn of the brightest, sunniest day, so must have been the joys of this father of In­ surance when the Woodland prodigals returned to their father’s house. Most surely it is not our part to notice the frowns of that one dutiful son who re­ mained true and faithful (and paid all the big assessments) when he returned from the field of toil, careworn and weary, and found the calf he had ted and fattened had been slaughtered—for who--now let us leave this—for the thought begets hunger. Let us wait for that report and see what kind of a calf the old man offers us. Let us quote again: “There are some other points I wish to call the attention of our memlwrs to that will be of profit to them.” This is just the point that the members have all been hoping for; the point that points to profit,; All joint stock companies whose instrance costs 25 eta. per 8100 yearly make large dividends to the stockholders, and the stockholders (are policy holders) of this company, have long waited for this div­ idend. Our friend states in the Sep­ tember notice to members, “The presi­ dent and secretary have the controling power” of course he can make any promise good that he favors the mem­ bers with. Since he has just built him a large mansion, certainly he can have no, objection to a dividend, providing the members all pay the big assess­ ments. To the members let me sayS Do not be in a hurry alxiut tearing away from dear, old associations. Be sure first that you have cause, so that you may not regret -that you have surrendered the relations and kind solicitude so gratuitously afforded you.

We believe in it thoroughly, and our business has grown to be what it is simply because we have always used a liberal supply of printers’ ink and kept faith with the people.

The recent explorations of the United States Fish Commission steamer Albatross have resulted in some remarkable discoveries. The bottom of the sea, says the report, at the depth of 600 to 2,000fathoms has gener­ ally been found to consist of small shells of sea-life which live on the surface, and in dying, ’ sink. Lieutenant Maury compared the descent of these minute shells to the fall of snow on laud. Off our Northern coast the com­ manders of Die Albatross brought up from a depth of one nnd two miles large quantities of tough, compact clay, "some of Ute piece* weighing more than one hundred pounds." Some of these masses of clay resemble large angular blocks of stone, but when cut with a kuife they have a consistency like hard castile soap, ahd in sections are mot­ tled with lighter and darker tints of dull green, olive and blueish gray.” This is pronounced genuine clay, show­ ing under the microscope grains of quartz and feldspar, scales of mica and a small percentage of minute shells. Other masses of. clay showed iron ox­ ide and magueee oxide. About a ton of ferruginous clay was brought up, the craeks lined with black magnese’oxide. shells, coral and tlie remains of small sea fish adhering to the bottom and sides. Under the Gulf Stream rounded bowlders, pebbles of granite, gneiss and rare crystals were found. Bricks, coal cinders, pieces of iron, which hod lloated from the shore on the ice, or had been thrown from vessels, were found in some places, minuti forms of sea life adhering to them. Many additions were made to the fauua of great depths, several of the -discover* ies in this direction being entirely new.

Mr Hondall in Ms LouisvIUe speech BWorc the Hoard ot Trade, made the statement that slWl.OOO.OOO were locked in the public treamuy. and that nearly fSntXDIXO were theniwitbout a dollar ot claim against it. Such a statement from a man in the position occupied by Mr. Kandall is almost a crime, as ordin­ arily there should he no good reason to doubt the truthf ulnros ot our statesmen. That It Is not true is easily demon­ strates, as a few ilgurea will show. We have before us now the report of the U. S. treasurer for July, IBM, since which time there has been no material change. From its perusal we find that there were outstanding demands against tbe government debts payable on demand as follows; Old demand notes............. M.Oo.OO Loral tenderOfnotes ............. 346,681,016.00 uSifiX deposit... 13330W00 Gold certificates................. JlS’Sil’wm Silver certificates............... 120,401311-00 Totaj............ ...................... 8598,391.092.00 With the above indebtedness payable on demand it would trouble Mr. Ran-dall to pay it out of 8450,000X00 and save $300,000,000. Asa matter of fact, if the figures were made as they stand now instead of as they were last July, we should find the amount on hand much less than as stated. In the light of these figure what becomes of the surplus.in the treasury that so much ■ has been said about. The following appointments by Gov. Alger have lieen confirmed by the sen­ In the United Kates senatethis week, the so called Davis-Sherman delude has been the mort exciting and magnetic subject, though by no means the most profitable. The discussion was sprung by Senator Hawley’s resolution asking President Arthur to furbish the senate with the statement regarding'Jefferson Davis’ policy, recently filed in the War Department by Gen. Sherman. The moment Senator Harris rose to find fault with the resolution, it was evident a spirited controversy would follow, and the listless visitors in the galleries Irent forward to hear. The honor and patriotism of Jeff Davis was shampioned by some of the ex-confederates, among them Senators Lamar, Morgan and Vest, while loyalty and the Union were defended by Senators Sherman, Conger, Hawley and Ingalls. Senator Vest asserted that Davis was as loyal to tho cause he espoused as was ever religious devotee to the God he wor­ shiped; that he was beloved now, and would ever be beloved, by a large ma­ jority of the southern people. Senator George, of Mississippi took the position that the question was really a private quarrel between iwo citzens, and that the senate was not justified in lending the dignity of Its influence in the mat­ ter. Senator Conger, of Michigan, could not understand how the contest could be between two private citizens. He thought Mr. Davis, as well as con­ gress, would have to do something be­ fore Mr. Da.vis oould claim equality of citizenship with Gen. Sherman. The distinguished senator from Connecticut said his resolution had been simply offered for the purpose of making ac­ cessible some information of historic value. He had no disposition to want­ only assail or exult over the men who had lost, but whenever the issue was presented he would maintain the stand­ ard he had i^jpautalned in the war, and characterize as conspirators and traitors those who engaged in conspiracy and treason. He also read, during the course of his remarks, letters that pass­ ed between Dtvis and .Senators Vance, of North Carolina, and Brown, of-Georgia,who were ’each the war governors ate: Commissioner of Railroads—W.

The question mny imply a belief that the aheep is different from other tniiufal*-—that if requires an essential different treatment from other animals. In some respects this is true. But it should be remem­ bered that in the main, the breeding and treatment of domestic animals is the same. If it is a benefit, for la­ itance, to cut and oook fodder for ent­ ile, benefit would unquestionably recnit from doing it for sheep. The sheep, it Is true, is possessed of exceedingly strong digestive powers, and that bang to, the benefit to be derived from pre­ paring food fur more easy digestion may not show, and wonld not show, u marked results as if such food were fed to an animal of less powerful digestion. And it may be, as is often the case, that the flockmaster thinks his sheep do well enough without such extra trouble. Il is often the case that we are satisfied with reunite, though knowing that they are not the best attainable. Unless they approximate Uie best, however, we should not be satisfied. As we have often explained, and as the reader well understands, tho object of cutting fod­ der .or cooking foods, is to make them more digestible. The process of cut­ ting makes the fodder more easily pene­ trable by the gastric juice, and that is true, too, of cooking. Whether or not it reallv pays to simply cut fodder, is a mooted question, aud,* perhaps, always will be. We have never practiced it unless for the purpose of mixing meal or grain with it If that is done there is no doubt at all that it will pay to do it However, whatever we may do or not do, nnd whatever, any of us may think or not think, experiments seein to have demonstrated that it does pay to both cut and cook food for sheep. The saving, however, is largely in a fuller consumption of the fodder. Sheep will leave five or six times more of uncut food than they will uf food that Is cut, A friend of ours experi­ mented in this direction. He fed a hundred pounds of long hay, and there were about twentv-five pounds left im- ; eaten. He then fed a hundred pounds of the same bay cut about half an inch long, and there was not quite five pounds left uneaten. Mr. Stewart, af­ ter carefully experimenting, came to the conclusion-that sixty pounds of cut hay would equal seventy-nve pounds of uncut hay when fed to sheep. He has ho hesitancy in saying that it pa\s just us well to feed fodder for- sheep as it does to cut it for any dtber class of farm slock. He also 'experimented in cooking hay and grain together, mix­ ing one hundred'pounds of corn meaL one. hundred pounds of uheat mid­ dlings, fifty pounds of linseed oil meal, and about two hundred pounds of cut hay, together, and cooking iL with live steam for an hour and a half. It will be observed that this would make a very evenly balanced food, and jt is but fair to say that if care were exer­ cised to compose such an excellent food M this, the results would be very marked, whether it was cooked or not. bull the results in Mr. Stewart’s experi­ ments better with the cooked food than they were with the same food, in the snrne quantity, uncooked, i hc sheqp whbo fed ou tlie cooked mixture gained three pounds per head per week, while tho same ration un­ cooked produced but two. or at most two and a quarter pounds per week. He remarked that op the cooked ration the sheep seemed as contented as if ,«m grass. Bul here neain is suggested the old subject to which wv so often refer—tlie necessity of plenty of good water. We have no ^loubt* that the aheep were as contented as if on grass. But is it not a question that if the above excellent combinataop of food, if fed dry and suppltnnented by a generous supply of roob% would also have pro­ duced the contentment spoken of, and roused results which, taking into con■.idemtion the less trouble and less ex­ pense, would have been equally satisfactory? W<- should mention, however, that that nt nt noons noons ho ho fed fed a a little little dry dry hay. hay. Ilia Ila' well to mention this, for cooked food is, more laxative than dry, and the dry' food at noon wonld have a tendency to correct the tendency to looseness. We desire, too, in this connection to remind the flockmaater that whatever may be his system of feeding, a little oil-rake or meal is invaluable. It is better than wagOn-loads of medicine for abcep or other animals. If we could induce people to provide route and oil meal for their Hhqeu, we should gave n’great deal of trounle among flocks. The meal /strengthens digestion, and is a good food upon sound principle.-. There is an experiment described, and familiar to many, that was under the direction of an Ohio dockmaster a few years ago. He divided a flock of three I >.odred sheep into two flocks of a hnndmi Aid fifty each. He fed one lot on uncooked food of the best qual­ ity. The other lot were fed cut cooked fodder mixed with bran. There is no record of the gain. Bat the results of feeding Uie cut and cooked foods were so satisfactory that he immediately went to work at considerable expense to provide the means of cutting and cookings!! Uni food that his sheep con­ sumed in winter. As a matter of fact, the evidence in favor of cooking food for stock is overwhelming. Certainly, nine-tenths of those who have tried it approve of it. And yet, as we have before intimated, there are questions connected with the subject which we do not bclirve-are iffways carefully weighed.

We have given the matter a fair and thor­ ough trial, and we that any publisher of a country weekly who sells his paper at one dollar a year is losing mone’v by it, under any and all circumstances.

The management cannot, in jus­ tice, be centured because the assessment is 30 cents instead of 10 -or 20. They would lie only too glad to have it less. No other mutual company covering the same territory could have carried the risks of the Barry & Eaton, and made a lighter assessment. Any other compa­ ny having met the losses and insured against them, would have been compell­ ed to pay, or suffer the reproach of dis­ honesty. The only question—and really there is no question either—is this: Has the assessment levied this year gone to pay legitimate losses and ex peases ? We in­ sist that no man can question that point. If you grant that, then the duty of every policy-holder to pay his assess­ ment without, complaining is plain. His company is affording him the same protection it has given those who have met losses. He is tbe gainer in security against lose by the prompt pay­ ment of all obligations. Before changing from one mutual to another, each policy-holder should care­ fully consider. All mutual companies forth his inonnoe of tbe tofteof his his familiarity with the scriptures, which he may Ijave read but certainly has not heeded, is a matter of doubt with the subecriber, as it doubtless was with the large majority of your read­ ers.

When all told, they are not one of the cheap companies nor do' they pretend to be. Now I will cite to another company, f will not pick out one of the cheapest companies I can find in the state. I will refer to the largest and strongest, as I believe that- to be proper, Kent, Allegan and Ottawa, assessment last year of 3-10 of one per cent. (30 cts. on the 8100.) I could cite to other compa­ nies equally as good and equally as high occasionally. This is by no means to reflect on mutual lieing high insurance, but simply to show that all mutuals are liable to high assessments. His statement that myself iu connection with other officers of Barry and Eaton, have tried to impose upon our incirtbera is another assertion born of the vivid imagination of this romancer. Each year a statement has been given each member showing where every dollar has been expended. 'Is there * any impo­ sitton about that ? rt so let the gentitman name it. , In conclusion let me say. that nommore than our officers could desire that the assessment levied by the Barry & Eaton for the past two years should be 10 cents instead of 26 and 30. But • every dollar paid has been for losses vouched for by some ot the best men of both counties. It is simply our misfor­ tune; but through it all, our company has been thorougbl^bouorable with every policy holder, ft has lived up to its word, and no company domore, or ought to do less.

But where recovery is possible a hypo­ dermic injection should -never be used. One important point in the morphine habit iff that victims wilt go to any extreme to procure the drug and they lose all moral senae of right or wrong when it touches that subject.-" “Thia fact h well illustrated in Iho following case." said another physician: “A lady m‘ a distant city, connected with one of the oldest and’ best families in thin coiuAry, was suffering from a disease which ncr physician cotaid not,or at least did not, cure, but gave her morphine to keep her comfortable. The habit grew until she took eight to ten grains a day. Her friends finally ■entner to me, and after relieving her of her trouble 1 began the process of curipg the opium habit. At lust she became, as we both lhougbt. entirely cured, but soon a slight craving for it reap|x*arcd and grew until, unknown to me. she succeeded in getting a sup­ ply, nnd was soon as bad as ever. The supply was cut off. the desire was huocetnrfnlly combated; and a year passed without her touching itorexperieitcfing any desire for it. . One day she caBed with a little bronchitis, I gave lug ■ prescription in which was a little pare­ goric. This she called for again and again, taking larger doses each time, until she was on the verge of re-estab­ lishing the old habiL I uiNcovered this, forbade the use of tho medicine, and she again recovered. A vqar or two afterward, when I had almost forgot­ ten her, she came to me w'4h a sprained joint. I gave her a liniment contain­ ing a small quantity of opium. When she discovered this sheiinnv-diately be­ gan taking the liniment internally, and again the thirst for the drug was aWakpiuhI. This was detected, ant! when 1 uj&haided her for deceiving me she said that 1 was us much in the wrong us;.shc wio for giving her such a lini­ ment. On all other points she wti« honest and truthful, blit in this partic­ ular respect she would do anything to get the drug she love*! so much.’’ “Morphine," said Dr. Francis Quin­ lan, of this city, “is un alkaloid ol opium, and the one. most extensively used. Th*- preparation used is a Majendu- solution containing sixteen grains to an ounce of water. The dose is alxnit seven drops, and the effect! last from two to three hour?. Admin­ istered hypodermically, its effects ar« felt at once, nnd is consequently mon sought after bv' opium users. Its effect is terrible. Tlie victims Jose all senss of .right or wrong, und will steal to procure it. One of my patients, an En­ glish lady, wife of a prominent engin­ eer. jiving in an uptown flat, had a syringe of her own. 8hr broke the needle, an*! I wu< called in to give het ■ a hyi»odennic injection. I found hei dull, torpid pad nerveless, and pre­ pared my syringe, when she said: • Ex­ cuse me. doctor, but 1 will take it my­ self.’ Thinking it a matter of deiioacy I acquiesced, and she retired. She re­ turned in a few minutes ns active a# possible, her eyes bright and her man­ ner as animated as -ever. She was/sc sorry she had broken my needle.’ She had stolen it, and put her own broken one in my case. HeH husband came next day with a new one, but ol eburse ‘l refused to receive it. The habit is a frightful outse,” sadly ended the doctor, “and numbi-rs some of out most brilliant society ladies among its victims.”—A'. Y. Trlrgrani. MASTS. In the big boat- shop adjoining the •avy yard dry dbek a busy gSng ol workmen arc hard at work learning the rudiments of a new navy yard iuj1 4ustry They are trying to make iron ‘ OsoLs, and for amateurs are succeed­ . tag- admirably. Up to dale such ves­ sels as are said to compose the United 8taV* navy are sparred throughout with wood. The new ma-ts arc not intended for use in the old navy, but are designed to embellish the new and alleged rruwer* now being fashioned by the Ihgenfous Mr. John Roach. The workers in tlie boat shop have one mast rieariv finished and are framing auather. llie two are meant for the newly launched cruiser Atlanta, now due at th*- yard. Most people think an iron mast is east nnd solid, nnd wonder why its weight doesn't pull ifcup by the roots or punch a hole in the bottom and slide through. This shows how easy it is to be mistaken. An iron ninst is really lighter than wood. A sixty-foot sticu •I spruce or yellow pine two feet in diameter at the base weighs far more than th*- shell forming the modern iron steamship ninxls. These masts for the Atlantal will be fine , specimens of their kind. The niuininunt is two feel in diameter at the base, tapering to seventeen inches nt the top, at which point the funnel will be fashioned square making a marked distinction from foreign-made mast heads, which are loft round. The main mast, is sixty-eight feet four and onehalf inches in length, and the foreiuiist • • •hnrtor The in«*tL~* of pound*. Years ugo a twelve-foot plate was considered the actin- in rolled she*-Ls, and so little was it thought that tiieir length would increased that a heavy rolling machine when pift to work in th*- fhop was placed so nrurthe . wall as to be unavailable^ now. A few days ago a rolling machiue of iiuiiieiiKi* proportions arrived at the yard. 11 will be set up in tho newshop In construction next 16 the Intrepid. The three rollers weigh twenty-fivr tons: the two bed rolls sc^j/ng eight tons each and the upper one nine altogether it weighs fortv-iivc tons. It will be used on the naval destroyers to he built in the hereafter, and on tlie two now being repaired. The coming of the Dolphin and the Atlanta will bring much continuous work to the yard, for after them will come the Boston, Chicago and their sisters, each with work to d<>. - //root-b/n Kaffir.

It is very bard, indeed, to get the poorest kind of a King f’harlcs for 9100, and for a good one $200 is not considered ' by any means an unreasonable price tu ask. The King Charles is rather deli­ cate, and is often injured and even killed by over-feeding. Both among the terriers and the King Charles breed of dogs the male is valued a little higher than the female, but ;the differcnee in price is very slight.—A". J'. Sun. , . FUR BONNETS. Fearfully and Wonderfully Couatructed tu Cape* and ]H*lurines of fur are still worn, and they an* made of seal, otter, astrakhan and lynx. Muffs are sold to match these pdlerine* aud cmies, and are not any larger than those worn last year. Flat muff* are having a bit of popularity, and they are slightly curved. *o a* to hold the hand* nicely. Satchel and muffs are also shown in seal, otter and astrakhan. Seal hills and bonnets <,ome in all.the shapes that are see.n in felt, »>wl they are trimmed.with birds . In clusters, or with breast* mounted on Iqng shape*. The most popular shape for the fur bonnets is the “fishwife" poke, with it* sharply pointed brim: the hats take mostly the turban aud English walking shapes. Both these shape* are very becoming, and seem .particularly well fitted to the fresh, •girlish face* of the youthful wearers. Sometimes the poke bonnet has a brim facing of mink. The richest imported wraps that come outside the list of fur gurment*. ;are eitlicr very short or very loci#, the medium length lacking style. The most elegant of the long cloaks are the draped cloaks that are made of two materials, a plain fabric, such as velvet, living underneath, and seen only doiwn the. middle of tbe back and front, while the sides, from the shoulder* down to the drapery on tlie *kirt, are .of figured velvet, either fusi, brocaded, striped. or ’ of two colors. "These luxurious garments completely ■covet the dress beneath, and are made . close-fitting in the bock of the waist, but very full on the tournure, while the front is straight and flows loosely from . the clasp at the throat. Brown and black velvets are most used in such cloaks for day wear, but for evening the palest*shades are chosen, such a* cream white, skv blue. ecru, pearl gray, light tan, and also the new yellowishgreen shade*. Feather border* of the most fanciful kinds, embroidery and the looped-chruille fringe*, trim these light cloak*, and. as has already been *aid, the dark one* are trimmed with fur. For day receptions there is a fanev for long, dark rod cloaks of fine wool, very simply bordered with brown, either in feat hers or far.

Ha gazed intently upon the busy scene, and every time the bell rang and the cry of “.front” iwmvd'from the clerk’* lip* he gave a start. Presently be turned to the reporter, and. in a strong Celtic accenL -You’re gotten a gran’ pl-a-ace here” “Indeed we have,” said the Tribune man. “You are a stranger, I pre­ sume?” “Yes.” said the old man; “I'm from a very fa-a-r land.” ••From Ireland?” “No!" This was a decided grunt of -dissatisfaction. ••From Scotland?” “Well, ye* and no. Til tell you where I’m'’from. I’m from St. Ki)dii.’’ The reporter had often heard of that far-away island, the Pitcairn Island of the Northeru Alluatic, whk h is shroud­ ed one-half of the year iu mist and rain, and tbe othur half with spray that is dashed up on it* rock-bound shores; but this was the first man he had ever met who had been there, and felt a* if he was speaking to au inhabitant uf another world. No wonder the old man had tha smell of the salt “sea foeme” upon him. The wonder was that he was not a second edition of Lot's wife. “Yea.” continued he. “I come from SL Kilda, and my name is John 3drsen. A sister of mine married one John Macdonald, of Stornaway, and he emigrated to near Winnijs?g. So when they sent me money to come ovej and sec them before I die 1 just come, but Tro too old to stand it now, so I m going home.” All this wa* said In a sort of broken English, and with an accent such as Shiela in the “Princess of ThUle” must have used. The re­ porter asked Mr. Borsen to give him some information a* to St. Kilda, which with the “aha,” and “ohs,” and “don’t yeq sees,” and “of course you’ll be aware” being eliminated, was Ms fol­ lows: “We’re getting fewer and fewer ev­ ery year at SL Kilda, and there’s now only about a hundred people on the island. This, we are told, is because we marry our cousin*. That I don’t know. At any rate, it is not the old people that die, burtbc babies between two months and a year. It is about eighty mile* from the mainland, and twice a year a ship comes to us and supplies us with what we want, and takes away birds-’ feathers and the oil we get from the >«*a birds, We have one minister on tbe island, and he be­ longs to the Free Church, aud he is also the schoolmaster. Formerly we had no glass for our wintlows. oxoept we got the gifts* from a wrecked -ship, but some good people on the jnainlaud sent us glass, ami we also have iron roofs on our houses now. They have tried to get us to leave the Island, but none of us will do it.” “How do you catch the sea birds?” “The way wa do it is drive a stake into the brow of the cliff, and then throw a rope of cowhide over. The man then descend* and catuhea the birds with a net.” “Many accident*?” “No; never that I know of.” “Do you have many shipwrecks?” ^0. aye, nearly every year: and sometimes the men are *aved and sometimes they are not. Once upon a time a Spanish man-of-war wn* wrecked at St. Kilda, and that is the reason so many of us have black hair and eyes. In these days very few ships ever visited us.” “Who does the island btdong to?” “It belongs to the Laird uf Dun ve­ gan. Macleixi of Macleod.” ••How do you pav rent?” “We pay rent In feathers aud oil. He’s a good Laird, is Macleod.”—Chi­ cago Tribune. LAND r TENURE. Knxhtnd. Gloves of various kinds were fre­ quently presented in service for lands. Thus, two farms at Carleoats, iu York­ shire, paid “the one a right hand, and the other a left hand glove yearly:" and *ome binds in Elmosale, in the same county, were held of the King “by the service of paying at the Castle of Pontefract, one pair of gloves furred with fox skin, or eighteen pence year­ ly;” while for the manor of Elston, in Soi l Ingham, were rendered two pairs of gloves, together with % pound of cummin seed, and a steel needle. Needles are met with several times, but one iiiKtince must here suffice—where “Roger, for. some time tailor to our lord the King,” held lands in Hallingburv, Essex, by paying at the King’s exchequer “one silvef needle yearly.” Still juore curious i* the service for certain lands in Rode. N^rthamptou, which consisted in finding “one horse of the price of five shillings and' one sack of the price ot onMialf pence, with one small pin. for forty dfiys.” Probably this “small pin” was similar tu the skeweg noticed above, and was used to fallen, or attach, the sack, which may/ have been employed to carry feddiW to the boiw*. That the homes were tolerably cared for, even in those di^ys, seems* to be proved by the fact thajt the manor of C-herburgh, in Dorset, wm held “by tbe service of one homo-comb, price four pence, to be paid yeariy,” and that certain lands in tbe hundred of Loscberg, in tbe same countyi 'wBre held “of our lord tbe King, by the serjeantry of finding a certain horse-comb, or currjeomh, etc,” Among other taisoellaneou* ser­ vices by which land* were held may be mentioned certain in*tenoes of hose. Thus, Coftington, in Nottingham, waa held by the service of presenting tu the King a pair at scarlet bore yearly *. KArrath-liin Worra.Ur, wra beld hr Let every owner of buildings and. contents -and especially farmers who are generally more or le*« remote from cities and village* where tire engines are kept, and the water supply is abun­ dant-keep a good line of insurance on buildings and content*, Jt co*t* some­ thing. it i* true, and If one doe* not get burned out it imems to some as though it was money thrown away, but such is not the case. Insurance never was cheaper than, it has been of late, and no one, unless he is very rich, and has property well scattered, can afford to go without insurance, ifarm barns an* especially liable to be struck by lightning iu summer and set on tire, while there i« in winter more or ie<r danger from the use of lanterns. tramjM smoking in the barn. etc. Farm build­ ings are often so connected that if one burns they all will, and such a fire often means utter ruin to.tlie owner. There is no excuse nowadays for not getting insured, and one who dues not will receive little sympathy if he suffer* loss by tire. The farmer should have more system' in doing business ilr.m is generally found in sections remote from cities. They are generally honest themselves, and so suppose all others are. We lately* had occasion to look up the title to a farm, and found three mortgages on the same—one is generally too many—and when we reported how things stool the farmer said he had paid off the larger one some years ago. and he suppostxi it was discharged. He had nothing on record to show that fact, however. Every one should,/ under such circumstances, have the business done properly. So in paying any bill, or paying money on’ ac­ count, »— -should v“1J the party ----paying ’insist --’-t upon, a receipted always I, __ bill or a receipt oni ________ ‘ account. _ It will not do to trust one’s memory. We have saved money and much trouble, not only for onraehe*. but for others, in doing business on strict business principle**. Men may be ever so honest, but mistaken. Some year* ago a grocer with whom we traded brought In a bill and requested pay­ ment. We could not say absolutely off hand that the same had been paid, but we had that impression, nnd <o re­ quested a little time to look over our receipts and check book. On examina­ tion we soon found a check for the amount payable to the order of the trader, with his indorsement on the back, on which he had drawn the fall amount of the bill. The sight of hl* name on the check was sufficient, and he apologized handsomely for the mis­ take; but if we had not been able to show him the check, or a receipt, he would hive always felt that we owed him the amount, unless we had paid him again. We give this as an illustra­ tion showing the need of care. Farm­ ers, as well ns all others who do any business, should keep books, and- not trust to memory or cnalk marks on the back door. Many law suits and much hard feeling ha* grown out of carelessnere in regard to accounts between neighbors. “Short account* make lonjj friends.” i armors should when they buy real estate be as careful as other people are, and have the title to tbe same carefully examined by a competent conveyancer or lawyer—some one who understands the business Nothing has surprised us more than the carekrssncsi dis­ played in this particular. There are very few farm titles that are strictly correct. This we, know. Only this wook we had the title to a small* farm examined upon which we were loaning money, and found there were no les* than three undischarged mort­ gages. Sometimes the descriptions of the real ostate- are so vague that it is almost impossible t*> locate it. In other, cases the instrument by which the land purports to be conveyed is very defective Tn execution, showing the importance of having titles exam­ ined when one is buying, before the purchase money is paid. A farmer should lie very careful when he is hiring or letting a farm and be sura and have proper lease* written, and have the same proper!^ executed. Some depend upon oral lease*, but they are only a snare, for it would be next to a miracle if both parties should remember alike for three or five years. What is written will tell the same story every time. Let there be a full anil thorough understanding between the lessor and lessee before the document* are prepared, and then when they are pro|>cr1y signed there is little danger of further trouble. The lessee should always bear in mind* no mutter wh*t the lease may say, that if the lessor ob­ jects the lessee can not remove from the farm any dressing made upon tt during the term of the lease. The courts have dedded—following the English deci­ sions—that the land shall not be doVrived of the dressing made noon it armers should iu short do all their business, so far m it is possible, on strict business principles as business men do, and they will save themselves much needless trouble and vexation.— Co ng regaiioiialiitf. QREENFOOD*for poultry. Green food is fully as essential for poultry in winter as jn summer. Their confinement to dry7 food during the continuance of cold weather goes far to account for tbe scarcity of egg* at that season of the year. Fresh winter eggs are alwavs in demand and bring a good price in every market. Hens, like cows, should be producer* as well as*consumers during the cold months of winter. Farmers, a* well aa fan­ ciers. should have a supply of green food safely stored away for the winter use of She* poultry. Fowl* are not vary particular a* to tbe kind: they readily eat celery, tops of onions, turnips, etc,*; lettuce, cabbage, and apple* also are relished. If such supplies have to lie pun-hared. it is cheaper to buy one or two hundred head* uf caubage of second quality, which can be had at a low figure in autumn or earlv in the Mason. These should be delivered with their root*. sad buried up to the Uk.i1 t. ----- * nr BIG BARGAINS! Genuine Slaughter Sale I THE CLOTHIER OFFERS HIS At a Discount of 25 per Cent To the Public For the purpose of closing out my stock of winter goods before taking an inventory, and to make room for a large invoice -for the spring trade, I have determined to sell my entire stock of clothing, furnishing goods, hats, caps, trunks and valises, in fact every article exposed for sale in my store at ONE QUARTER,25 PER CENT, less than the regular price. This is no closing out sale. I intend to remain in the clothing bus­ iness. But I do not wish to carry over any goods, and take this means of disposing of my stock on hand, and of giving the people of Hastings and vicinity the benefit of the best bargains ever offered them. I mean business in this matter. An inspection of my goods and prices will convince you that this is a genuine Quarter-Off Sale, and that you have never before had such bargains in Clothing. I have the only exclusive Clothing House in Barry County, and have always sold my goods at such figures as have successfully met all competition. 1 now not only meet my competitors, but go 25 per cent better, and offer all goods in my line at prices never before given in this city. I expect iff the nekt 30 days to dispose of all winter goods, and will soon be prepared with rare bargains for the spring trade. Come now while the stock is complete.

Perhaps the most romantic and start­ ling story of facts that has ever come to light in Iowa was related to your corresppndent^to-day, and which is cerrainly unknown to the citizens of Dubnque. My informant is one of the eldest and most influential citizens of this city. In answer to toe well-known reporter’s query, "What’s new?” he said: “I have a long and interesting story to tell you, and you will be the •first newspaper man to whom it has ever been told by me.” Leaning back in his cushioned chair and placing his heeh on an old-fashioned looking desk, he told the following story: Awav back in the early days of Dubuque a family, consisting of man and wife' and one. daughter, came here from St Louis. Their names will be withheld for the present, but may be given later. The bu.sband and father engaged in the busi­ ness- of .a miner, and for a time was quite successful. He was rat her shabbily dressed, but showed signs of refinement and education In youth. He \;as a Frondiman. After a while he lost what Iftile money he bad in the mining busi­ ness, and became almost destitute. DubuVjue in those days was a dreary wil­ derness, built mainly of frame'shanties, and populated for the most part by In­ dians. He, without any prospects of making a living for himself and family, became a wreck, bordering upon insanity, the sequel of which • was his being found dangling from a rope in his .vmi x»wn rwiu, room, coin cold in in aesin, death, navmg having comcom­ mit ted suicide. His poor widow and orphan girl were prostrated with grief; the former fainted at the ghastly sight and remained in a comatose condition for more than tjVQ days, al the end of which time preparations were com­ pleted for the interment of the supposed deiul body. It wax even inclosed in a casket, when the startling discoyery ■was made that the person was only.in a swoon. It is needless to say tha’t the supposed lifeless form was immediately removed, and such restoratives as were pro<*nrable. were quickly ad ministered by willing iiaixls. She rapidly recov­ ered, and wits soon in her fonder state of health, but. as I have made known, in a very destitute condition, and how to eke out a living for her«e)t and child added much to her di.-tnws. Eventually she obtained a situation as “maid <A ail work.” In addition to this she taught her child how to read, write, ete. Years rolled by and the child grew to be it young la.Iy. earning her own Living. Dubuque Was at this time rapidly Row­ ing. immigrants pound in from all directions, enlarging.Dubqqiie to quite a village. Among the new arrivals was a boy who emigrated from Europe at the age of eighteen to seek n livelihood in toe great West He possessed a remarka­ ble ambition to rise in the world. He commen(n*d on a starvation salary, and wax afterward employed in a little gro­ cery store, where he soon became a partner in the buxines*. Alxtut this lime he met and fell in love with the voting lady I have just referred to. Though poorly clad she wax exception­ ally pretty and quite intelligent. Thi* ‘ brief acquaintance was only an intro­ duction to along and clandestine court­ ship which followed, a description 61 whteb is unnecestiNy. Suffice it to say it did not deviate much from the “rules1' in urq at the present time. It was of a fourteen months’ duration and ended, as the average play does, in a happy marriage, though this happiness, it must be said, was short-lived: Five years awiftly passed—the mother-in-law darmg thw time died—and three bright httle children were the fruits of that period af conjugal lifo.

When the youngest yas only three months old .the father became engaged in a quarrel with his partner in hutineM. during which he, uuintenti .nally, it to said, dealt him • a b.ow on the forehead, wounding him in such a manner as to cause his death a few weekr after.

The announcement of hU marriage to the daughter of the senior member of the firm kt question created quite a sensation, as they were, socially speaking, not suited for each other, she being of very high social standing in the metropolis of the great but little Wand, while on the other hand be was comparatively ignorant anil ob­ scure in that respect This was the primary, if not the principal cause of frequent quarrels thereafter. Time passed, and two children were born to them. We will now take a trip back to his former, or American, wife and children, from whom he was- forced to part sev­ eral years previous. After his escape from prison the new* spread rapluly over the wires that • a man answering his description was killed at Lancaster, Pa. This news was received as oflicial by the authorities, although the body had not been identified as the escaped convict. The poor woman also re­ ceived the news as positive proof of her husband's terrible fate. Herself and family accordingly remained in mournfor over a year for a man who was then alive and who was to be untrue to hU devoted wife and children. The expi­ ration of several years of supposed widowed life brought back to light the great mystery aucl an awful tale. On a cold December evening a tat­ tered but intelligent looking boy, ap­ parently of sixteen summers, appeared at the door of her residence and noIfcely asked for some eatables, saying he was on a long, fatiguing journey, and without money. The request was readily granted, and after politely thanking her for het kindness and telfing where ho was from ha took his leave. No more was heard of him or seen of him there. dukrd offlbe. wearing male attira. Her appli­ cation. fora clerkship wm made to an intelligent-looking gentiemaa, ump entiy thirty-flue years old, who politely informed her that a good recommenda­ tion would be nece.-.<ary before she could be employed, and adding that if such could be obtained he would be most happy to employ her. She deImrled discouraged and down-hearted, mowing that toe required document could not be had in a strange city. She wandered several days about toe streets and suburbs and at last was inrfpirqd •with a hopeful thought, and called upon a clergy man, to whom she told the entire story of her experience, etc., since leav­ ing Dubift]ue. After due hesitation, he Sve her a letter of recommendation. turning with this, she was at once employed and worked faithfully for several weeks before she gained sight of her father. The meeting was an af­ fecting one. She ran to hnn, threw her­ self at his feet, and cried out: “O, fa­ ther!’ father! I’m your daughter and came from America to look for you.” The scene wfll never be forgotten by the few who chanced to be present. A great sensation followed; the entire press of Dublin devoting several col- ■ umns each day to comment and oriticlsru on the male-female clerk. The ille­ gal wife was now beyond all doubt as to herposition, and immediately applied for a divorce, which was granted after considerable difficulty. The three children who were the fruits of their married life were claimed by her and granted by the court with the exception of toe boy’ who, immigrated to America, who was given to the father. The glad tidings or the finding of the father were immediately dispatched to her mother in Dubuqtie, ana for the first time in almost a qtiat ter of a century, commu­ nication was opened between the legal husband and wife, which resulted in her emigration to the city of Dublin, where a few years of happy life were spent, when she died, and was shortly after followed to the shores of the unknown beyond by our hero.

But to the son’s lost, he has never been heard of Since. Should he be in existence still this little communication we hope will be the agent to establish some clue to his whereabouts, and con­ vey to him the news of his good luck.

The late defeat enables the 'j^arty to rid itself of many campfollowers, hun­ ’ gry for spoils, who would lose their in­ terest in the party the moment it ceased to feed and clothe them. Such a class always fastens itself upon a party which has had the reigns of. power for any length of time; and are always cer­ tain to get it into trouble. One good thing for the party about them is that they make themselves scarce in th-j hour of defeat, and leave the path clear for the young and strong men of the party to get. to the front. Such is the state of the republican party now. It has been well ridden of the leeches who tried to sap its life and prevent or per­ vert its growth. New and strong man will dominate iu the party's councils hereafter, and we predict that no partv will ever have had a more brilliant leadership than the republican party from now on, with such men as it has lately, and will hereafter, elevate to high places in the councils of the coun­ try. With new men, come new ideas. While the republican party has the grandest record in the history of this or any other country, it tailed of late to keep abreast of the age in which we live; failed to plant itself squarely on the right side of the new’ and Bvihg is­ sues of to-<iay; and failed because of the ciAvardly, crafty deeds of the leeches we have referred to. Defeat has happily liberated the party from this class, and we expect to see it become the earnest, aggresive party it has been in the past. Our grounds for this hope and expecta­ tion are the facts that it is rapidly reor­ ganizing its forces, and that, the most brilliant and brainy men or the country are ita leaders. The mission of the republican pitrty is by no means ended, as this country will have occasion to see in thi near future. Col. McClure^ editor of the Philadelphia Times, who has been visiting the New Orleans exposition and also making an extended study of the sugar, interests in Louisiana, asserts that, despite the duty of two cents a pound on sugar, the planters of that state were yet unable to successfully compete with the sugar makers of France, Germany and Spain, who have better protection by their home governmenst than two cents per pound. Col. McClure says it is higher protection or no a wgar-in airing in Louisiana; and yet that state will vote to put in power a party opposed to building up American industries.

The aver­ age daily attendance for the past month was 182, and the number belonging on the last day of the month was 139, and the per cent of attendance 96.11. On Friday, Feb. 6th, we had a visit from Prof. C. B. Hall, now of Detroit Teachers and pupils were all very much pleased to see him, and in his remarks addressed to the high school, he ex­ pressed , his high satisfaction at the large numbers present, and at the har­ mony and excellent condition in which all things worked. On Monday, March 2d, teacher's class will open, and continue four weeks. Arrangements are )>eing made to fur­ nish better facilities for the teachers than ever before, so that they may get the greatest possible amount of good in the shortest time.

A buxom, matronly-looking woman, accompanied by a lad about seventeen, entered a grocery store Saturday even­ ing in the neighborhood of Twenty­ ninth Street and Third Avenue. ••Vat vm it/ouvant alretty?" queried the clerk, a ruddy-faced German with a mild blue eye.

S RUNNING FOR THE TRAIN. In every other country beside the United States the precautions againxt loss of life or limb by railroad trains are gre£\«r than they are in this coun­ try. It may bo a higli compliment to Americans, aud it is fairly earned, that they know better than most people how to protect themselves, but there is always a certain proportion of rash and silly men and women who must be con­ stantly warned or forcibly restrained, from running into danger. It is for them that gates and bars are\ placed at crossings in stations and onthe cars themselves. To climb over such obstructions, or break them down, is folly. One of the foolish habits, even in America, is that of running after a train. A railroad officer said not long since that “Over half the people who make the attempt to catch a train, after it has started, get left, and some of them are seriously injured. I have jotted down the results of a hundred such at­ tempts. From the notes on the first one, I find he ran to. the end of the walk and finally caught the last car. “The second one was on the next day. It chanced to be a fat woman, carrying a basket of groceries, and I remember how, just as she was about to hand the train-porterter basket, she stubbed her foot and fell flat upon the basket, crushing a paper of eggs and looking, when she arose, rnueu as if she had stood under a shower of omelette.” The officer’s memoranda of a few others ran like this: “Lame man got on. bnt lost crutch; train had to be stopped to recover iu “Young woman carrving baby, and running at full speed, fell and cut child’s head on a nail. Middle-aged spinster also took a tumble, and when she struck the planks with a jar, ejected false teeth in presence of nervous gentleman. “Drummer threw sample-case on rear platform: it slippod off and broke open, ruining some valuable samples. “Young lady lost hat ana bangs, and was half an hour trying to find a ring. “Old lady fell upon left arm, breaking it below elbow. “Boy caught on brake, slipped and fell under the wheels and >was fatally injured.”—Youth's Companion. —Fashionable ladies who get themthemselves talked about by doing eccen­ tric things are no longer said to be craxy.

Why Wood Warps. It is said that wood on the north side of a tree ^ill not warp as much as that from the south side, and that iL trees are sawed jn planes that run fAnt and west, os the tree stood, it will warp less than if cut in an opposite direction. However this may be, the convex side of the curve is always toward the heart. This warping, due to unequal shrink­ age, and to the more open texture of the external portion of the tree, is not found to occur in the middle plank er lioard of the log, excepting as it may in slight degree reduce the breadth. This quality of not warping, which is in many cases absolutely indispensable for cer­ tain uses, as, for example, in tbe sound­ ing boards of pianos, is secured iu ihe case of spruce timber by first quarter­ ing tbe log? and then sawing them with the angle downward. It is then sawed into boards very nearly at right angles with the line of annual growth, and a Hb ray adored wife. <nd tUuMid — CltOOIRa^aELLJHKM.

Lovlsville, Ky., Feb. 14. — Colonel Thomas Buford, a brother of General Abe Buford, and tlie slayer of Judge Elliott, of the Court ot Appeals, died this morning, at tiie Anchorage (Ky.) Lunatic Asylum, after a long IllnesM from a chronic disease. It will lie remembered that Buford shot and killed Judge Elliott for rendering a decision against Buford’s sister in a case involving considerable property. After a moat sensational trial for the murder, Buford was adjudged a lunatic, and sent to the asylum, from which place he escaped, going across the river to Indiana, where he lived about a year, hunting and fishing, the asylum officials being unable, under the .law, to bring him bock to Kchtacky. With­ out friends and without money, Buford grew sick, and was finally faced by want to go back- to tbe Mylum, where he remained till hh death. It is only seven years since he killed Judge Elliot, but hi tiat time Buford saw lik» famUy h»t all their property, and the trouble . of Ids brother was undoubtedly the cauae of of Uie noted turfman.

Members of Muskegon's Central Labor Club are working on a bill for the appoint* of an inspector of factories and mills, to She workmen. William Pierson, a fireman employed in the Michigan Central yards at Detroit, went under the engine recently to perform mechanical ukull of enameled gold, with a moveable under jaw. and diamonds noted steiglit-of-hand man wore one on a recent visit to the Citv Hall. The little ornamentww» a marvel of the jeweler s art. It was enameled In perfect imitation of a bltMtcbml human skull, and • bright-colored gold Jockey cap fixed to the top of ft added to it* ghaFtUnesa. A reporter had his eyes upon the skull while tbe professor was talking to an alderman, when suddenly the under jaw of th^ skull begun to rattle and the diamonds in the eye sockets rolled and flashed. The chattering of the jaws could be plainly heard ten toot away, and was calculated to draw at­ tention. The aiderman and the reporter observed the chattering about the same instant. It has a ia*cinxting and awe­ inspiring effect upon the city rather, wiro stood spell-bound for an instant'and then acted as though he doubted his vision. The chattering and eye-rolling would slop for a moment, as though tbe skull was tired by the exertion of rat­ tling its tiny teeth together, oniv to be renewed the next moment with more rigor. Finally the reporter’s profes­ sional instinct got the better of him. and be besought the professor to tell him all about the arrangement The latter complied, with a hearty laugh over the effect of his little joke. “In the first place,-’ said he, “the skull is worked by a current of elec­ tricity generated by a little battery which I carry in my’ pocket and trans­ mitted over wires no heavier than strands of thread.” He illustrated tbe working of tho ornament by pressing upon a button which completed tho electric circuit and caused the teeth to rattle. “It was made in Paris, " resumed Mr. Schultz, “and is worth $100; at least that is what its duplicate will cost any person who wonts one. Yes; the prioe is rather steep, but you must. consider that the ornament has to bq very care­ fully and nicely adjusted, and. that ft is made of platinum and the best of gold; besides, the diamonds alone are of some value. No; no cheap counterfeits have Jet been made. The highest-priced one ever saw was marked at $65.” ‘ f Laughing over recollections of some of the sport he had had with the pin, the prestidigitator resumed: “I fright | ened a darky almost to death with ft I yesterday. The man was so much frightened that his knees knocked* ’to­ gether and his nostrils expanded, just as I have seen those of a hoive in alarm. I had to take the pin to pieces and ex­ plain all its details to completely over­ come his • fright.

In 1885 the Inter Ocean enters upon the fourteenth year of it* existence. Given unusual confidence by the people in it* early days it has staidily grow» in favor until this day, whert the pub­ lishers take pride in the fact that the paper goes into more homes and has a greater number of readers than any publication west of the Alleghenies. From the beginning The Inter Ocean has stood firmly by the principles of the republican pvty. and has, in season and out of season, contended for “pro­ tection to American industry.” It does ' not agree with the idea that the mission of the republican party is finished. On the contrary it bdieve* that, purified by adversity, it will in the near future risd again to higher planes of thought and Action and be .completely restored to the confidence of the American peo­ ple. The most important agencies in accomplishing this result will be rapublican journals. If a reliable, stench republican newspaper was important when the republican party was in pow-. er, it is doubly so now that the democ­ racy control the national government. The Inter Ocean will in the future a* in the past be the medium through which the best republican thought will be given to the people. It will voice Express. the eopvictions of advanced republi­ cans without being unfair even to VALUE OF LAB6R. bourbon democrats. It will be aggres­ sively republican without being bitter­ ly partisan, and will give as much at­ tention to the Affairs of Cleveland’s ad­ A school reading-book of tlie last ministration as it would have given to the administration of Mr. Blaine had he generation had an article on the me­ Jbeen elected.

Tbe municipal council of Paris coDtracte directly with the unions for the various public works of the dty. A certain wealthy Frenchman, M. Rampol, had long believed that mec hanics' tradus unions might be actually turned into great coopera­ tive stock componiee. thw becoming at ouce employer and employed. But there were difficulties in the way ofXMgrting. Want of means was the greativt. Ml Rampol deter­ mined to at k-art let tbcsu bare money to tr} tho experiment after he «m dead. A short time ago, accordingly, lie topk leave of this world iu proper ftiwh style, and made by will a gift of hfa whole fortune to the dty of Paris. The fortune wn* to be loaned at interest to tbe trad-w union*, to turn tncm. into vart co-cmerative compauitn, and cnabl- tta«n to transact businew on their own account. Tho municipal council did not want tbe LxCber of the thing; besides, they did not believe in tlie scheme anyhow. But there were the condition* of the will—no ex­ periment. no gift—and they were obliged tc conr.ply. A coaimittee of tbe council wm a|*pointed to take charge of the fuuds and carry ^ut the teatator’s instructions.

On Wednesday last, the house of rep- rraenatives, pt thia state, by a two thirds vote favored the submission of the prohibitory question to a vote of the people. Only two of the fifty-two republicans of the house voted against the resolution, and the two were from Detriot,and were first nominated by the labor party and endorsed by tbe republicans, so that they cannot be class­ ed with the regular republicans. Every regularly nominated and elected republican of the house who was present when the ballot was taken, voted “Aye," thus cartying out in good faith the ■ pledge made in the republican platforms . of 1882 and 1884. The. measure will now go toithe senate, of which body 18 are republicans and 14 £usionists. Every republican senator has signified his in^ __ tention to yote for s submission, pad ii four more can lie gained, the measure will receive the necessary two-thirds , vote. We will await and stew i But the noticeable feature of the vote that has been and the one which will l»e taken soon, is the fact that tlie re­ publican members of the legislature have faithfully kept the pledge made by their party to the people of Michi­ gan. And this in the face of opposition which we believe no party in this state ever encountered.

IxiNii'iN, Feb. 20,—It is announced that,, in view of the fall of Khartoum and the deiith of General Gordon, which eventa have rendered the main object pf General Woltatey’s expedition Impossible, the Gov­ ernment ha> deemed it exjx'dient to change the whole plop of the ramixijgn hi the Soudan.

Ail available troops In General Wolseley’s command will be concentrated at thiit place and at Debbeh and Karosku, tlie main body being at Korti. /) It is probable that General IxTrd Wolse­ ley may evacuate Korti and retire to Deb­ beh. where the desert routes from Omdurrnan, El Obeid and Darfour converge on the Nile. General Wolseley will there await help from England. At Korti the General conid lie surrounded.

In 1885 the Inter Ocean enters upon the fourteenth year of its’ existence. Given unusual confidence by the people . in its early days it has steadily grow* in favor nntil this day. wheh the pub­ lishers take pride in the fact that the paper goes into more homes and has a greater number of readers than any publication west of the Alleghenies. From the beginning The Inter Ocean has stood firmly by the principles of the republican party, and has. in season and out of season, contended for “pro- • tection to American Industry.” It does not agree with tbe idea that the mtatfon of the republican party ia finished?' On. the contrary it believes that, purified by adversity, it will in the near future rise again to higher planes of thought anu action and be completely restored to the confidence of the American peo­ ple, The most important agencies in accomplishing this result will lie repub-. . lican journals. If a reliable, stanch ' republican newspaper was important when the republican party was in pow­ er, it is doubly so now that the democ­ racy control the national government. The inter Ocean will in the future as in the past be the medium through * which the best republican thought will begiyento the people. It will voice the Convictions of advanced republi­ cans without being unfair even to bourbon democrats. It will be aggres­ sively republican without being bitter­ ly partisan, and will give as much at­ tention to thfe affairs of Cleveland’s ad­ ministration >as it would have given to • the administration of Mr. Blaine had he been elected. With an associated press to New York and Washington, with special correspondents in all important points of tiie country, The Inter Ocean will tise its facilities for collecting news without fear or favor, and so for as gov­ ernmental affairs or party inovsinents are concerned Will-give a fuller record than any other paper. . Allot tbe old departments will be continued. The scope of the WOMAN’S KINGDOM will be widened bo as to take in all the industrial and reform movements in which women are inter­ ested and engaged. OUR CURIOSITY SHOP, now a standard, will be given greaier variety and interest. In the FARM AND HOME and other dre partmenta, the widest possible range of topics will bti discussecl. ' Of original short stories and serials, the very best by American and English authors will be given during the year. Arrangements have been imsde to pub.lish during the year short stories by BOYESEN, HOWELLS. LATHROP, and others, and a new aerial by the author of “One Summer," and to pub­ lish all these in addition tx> the serials by MISS BRADDON and other Eng­ lish authnra. In every department of news and lit­ erature The Intek Octian will make a better record rhan it ever has done.

The otter and the cormorant are trained to asslrt in catching the fish in rivers. The otter is taught to drive the fish into the nets. and lie d<s* it as skilfully as a hunting dog drives birds. Tho cormorant, however, does nil the work himself. The bird is trained to its occu­ pation with the greatest care. It is brought up In domestication, the eggs being set under bens anti hatched by them. The cormorant will catch fish for her master, man, but she will not bother much with taking care of’ her own children. The trained bird is taken oat in his b»at by the fisherman. It stands upon tfic eclgtGf tho bo^t till its master gives a signal. TiiAi it darts fnto the water to do ite work. It remains out till it gets its load of fish—tKinwitimeaa large one, sometimes wweral small one*. It fill* its throat with the small ones. Then the well taught creature comes back to the boat, and tlie fisherman proceeds co empty it out and take poerewdon of it* booty himself. If a fhh caught is too large for one bird to land several cormorant* join and help bring the haul to the boat. in Canada much interest fa felt in the grange and mysterious inland sea visited last summer by a British-American land sur­ veyor.

The young lady in our illustration wears White marked at times with pcri.aps more of personal feeling, than soums necft.si.ary. a generous rivalry between the breeds is by all means to be encour­ aged. The dLsctiKsions in which the friends of each engage, in order to show their favorites to be the best, attract wide attention and do not fail to demon­ strate to the general farmer the su­ periority of all as compare.! with com­ mon and unimproved stock*. He may not be exactly satisfied with the ar.-romenu advanced by the friend • of Shorihorus and Hereford*, for instance, a- to which stock is the bc-t. bnt he f.«.i not fail to perceive, from th" friends of each advance ami that* cither stock 'is a vast imKvement upon the ordinary stock he been handling, and capable of aug­ menting very largely the profits of the farm. And so. while disuosed some­ times lu deplore the warmth with which the fnends of one breed or tlie other move to the attack or stand upon the defense, wc can not help but feel that the general cause of live stock improve­ ment is all the time being advanced. Men will disagree and dispute about what is good mid desirable, but they hold no discussions over those things which are poor and value­ less; the fine gold is the subject for their emulation, while the dross which (lows .with it from the fprnace receives no thought Whole communities may di­ vide in their opinions as to whether Shorthorns orHerefonteor other breeds are the better, but no champions ap­ pear to maintain that common and un­ improved stock is the equal of any. And as its best is so far below tho im­ proved sorts there is no discussion among its owners as to whose is the best and whose is tho poorest. So we say let this generous rivalry continue. Words spoken to advance the interests of on© breed advance the interests of all, and the effect upon the general cause is good; If neither side can quite succeed in convincing even-body that they arc just right, no matter, for be­ tween them they are convincing tho country' that only the farmer and ranch­ man who maintains unimproved'stock is entirely wrong. Besides, it is quite evident that such a competition as this, and a constant contiarison of the merits of the respective ireeds. one with another on the range, in the feeding lots, in tho markets and at the shows, must stimulate the friends of each breed to hold their fa­ vorites constantly to tho highest stand­ ard. There is an ever-present induce­ ment not only to work improvement where that is possible, but to watch fox and correct the earliest tendencies to deterioration. Breeders are compelled to improve and correct t heir methods or lose place in the face of these rival­ ries. To the general farmer these discus­ sions mqy at times appear perplexing, and some may feel uilcertain as to what particular breed to give their attention to. Bnt really there should be no hesi­ tation in the matter. If there is any decided taste or preference, consult that by all means in making selections. And if that is'' absent any one of the imfiroved breeds will prove a source of nimense satisfaction and profit and whichever one tlie farmer selects will prove so much mon* profitable than all the other stocks with which he has to do that likely ho will be ready to main­ tain it is “the best on earth.’’— Breed­ er's GaxeUc.

The man who offers itt this consolation is a genuine Mark Tai>tey, who would be jolly Under all circumstances. But there is one respect in which the CrtMkers are right. Il is truly becoming more and wore difficult and uncertain, year by year, to produce large and reliable fruit returns. Iu the west, if there ore moderate -crops three v«irs but of five, the agriculturist thinks be has no right to complain. That, too,-at the vpry-timr when apples in i»rticular are demanded in larger nnd larger quantities every year. The American apple is shipped to Europe in va<t and increasing amount. Over there among the okl mouarchuM tltfy ore just beginning to find out how good 'it Is. Our apples aro following in the truck of our beef nml mutton. If the Ameri­ can farmer jays attention to the growth of api’lcs, electing the best varieties, giving them the best methods of culture, then learn­ ing how to pack them, so that a prune article on tins side of the water will be in prime con­ dition when it reachw the other, our orchards will in time become a mine of wealth. Noth­ ing is mon1 certain than that. Again, the free u« of fruit as an article of diet is beginning to be appreciated as invalu­ able in n hygienic point of view. Plenty of apples of th" bret quality save disease and doctors' bills. But nt this very time orchards must begin to fail on our hand*. Now insects come down upon the fruit like a wolf on the fold. The country is cleared up of forest*, and then* G nothing in the woods for them Ooe of the latest of them is a filthy little wretch called th- apple maggot. It. tunnels an apple through and through a dozen times, leaving behind it a track of vile, dark ex­ creta.*. The fly of this mature qomes in Jqly, and lays several eggs in the Infant ap­ ple. In August and September the worm be­ gins to bore, and ruins the fruit. This worm is a footlenK maggot, with a pointed black bead. It thivatens to devastate whole seo. tions of country. The best preventive of this and other in­ wet peats is to turn hogs into the orchard and let them root at will and eat apples. mnggotH and coddling moth worms. The swine should be turned iu ut. noon as the apples begin to fall, ana allowed to run all through the time of windfall Two or three yean of tills will cure almost a desperate cam of wormy orchard.

Again, another cause of failing orchards is that the roll is exhausted. It is an admirable let the hogs pasture that. It will bring up tlie fruit-bearing qualities rapidly. Too free use of barn yard manure richeus the wood and leaves at the expense of the fruit Bone dust is recommended to mix with the manure, but lime and wood ashes are excellent and do not cost much. The only old orcliard* that yield fair return* are those that, arc cultivated and fertilised.

Its owner plowed it and manured and cultivated tlie land thoroughly for tCro years, and pruned it well, and the result was the third year a heavy crop of apples. We shall have something more to say about planting and pruning. CbeeMa making is shortly going to be one of the heavy industries of the United States.

Am a result of the conference it was resolved to restore the rates of wages v.-hidi prevailed prior to last Sep­ tember and to give tiro men one end a half time fur aH extra work. This was mere than the strikers had demanded, their requ-act haying been that the raihnnd companIm restore the rate* which pre­ vailed prior to the January cut Thin proptfdtion was lint- made by the State ofilcials. It was kindly received by the railroad coirijianh/, as was proven inter, when Mr. Hayes drew up a circular iu which he not only agreed tn the ubove terms, but inserted another claim to the effect that hereafter tlie railroad cqinpank* would notify employes of a cut thirty days to* advance, so as to give them time to enter their objections aqd thus do away with another clash like the present one. The latter claiiHe Mr. Hayes inserted not. only to conciliate Uli parties but in deference to the Texas law requiihig railroads to give employes thirty dnys no­ tice ol n cut in wages. The rpsolutiun was in the ft.nn of a proposition which came from tiio State officials and whicli was ac­ cepted by tin- State autltnriUes.

A THIEVES' SUPPER. The annual, supper for the criminal daasai in connection with the St. Gilet Mission, Little Wild street, Drury Lane, was held, in the Mission Chapel, Hon. Sir Ford North, one of the Judges of the Supreme Court, in the chair. The Lord Mayor, who received a boisterously, warm greeting, was also present Some two hundred men and youths of the Criminal clmute*. were regaled at a Mibstautial supper in different parte of the building. The wretched estate into which these guoste have fallen waa pro­ - claimed by the rags and countenances of most of them, They were waited upon, as on previous occasions, by la­ dies and gentlemen interested in the mission. After the tables had been cleared the usual meeting was held. Mr. George Hatton, the General Super­ intendent read a report explaining the operations of the society, and appealing for help. Mr. Hutton stated that dur­ ing the past yeAfr 16,718 men had been discharged from! prison In London, mid that of this-numlwr 12,427 accepted the free breakfasts given near Wandsworth, Cold-buth-tlelds, and Holloway Prisons on the morning of discharge. In his report Mr. Hatton paid a wtfrm tribute to the energies of Mr. W. Wheatley, the secretary, who has charge of the rescue and preventive de­ partment. and when7later, Mr. Hatton, on concluding his address, praiented a gold watch to Mr. Wheatley, as some slight recognition of his kindness and as a gift from men who have by his agency been saved from lives of crime, the cheering was lofid and long. Tbo subscribers to this testimonial,- once thieves, were present last night in the meeting. Mr. Whently, who was evi­ dently much surprised at this part of the proceedings, briefly expressed his thanks, and then proceeded to read one or two letters from discharged prison­ ers. One of them is at the present time in employment, and this letter prompted Mr. Wheatley to give to the men present a bit of wnolesome mlvioe —namely not to be so unmanly and mean as to sponge upon a comrade bochqse he hapi>ens to be in work. Sir Ford North delivered a brief address to the discharged prisoners. Prisoners often, ho said, when about to be sen­ tenced, protested that they had been led into crime bv hunger and tempta­ tion, liut he wished them to understand' that these were no excuse for crime. No doubt it was difficult for a discharged prisoner to find em­ ployment. and' it was easy to relapse in­ to criiiitvout, thanks to the efforts of such a mission as this, there was now no ratal excuse. The rescue "department of the St. Giles' mission am the Pris­ oners’ Aid societies in the provinces tfere doing a vast amount of good. The Government gave timely assistance to the St. (tile*’ massion. and no society could Is! more worthy of support. Pris­ oners often appealed to the Judge to Jive them one moto chaftce,- but the udgo hurl hot the power to give what was asked. The chance was really given by a society like this. Referring to the artidv in Monday’s Daily Newe entitled, •‘Raising the Fallen,” tlie learned judge remarked—with respect to the discharged prisoner who tr ed to explain to the writer that the offense for which hr was sentenced was a frdiie rather than a crime—that it was no uncommon thing for prisoners to make these apologias, but it did not 1 answer to advance such pleas, which generally had no foundation. He told them that there was no fear of their being interfered with by the police if they conducted, .tlie^jselves properly; and as, in bi» experience, nine crimes out of ten were caused by drink, he ad­ vised them to abstain from intoxicating liquor altogether. Thi-y must not disguise from themselves that they were person# who has falle^d^rwn. but they hud a fair opportunity pCting;up again and walking along flic straight and narrow way. That they would do ao was his sincere wish. Tho Lord-Mayor, in view of a printed statement showing that £1,000 was needed, suggested, amid much applause, that an appeal should bo glade to tho city companies, and promised to dc'what’he could to back the appeal. -«His lordship inci­ dentally rcniurkodjhat he had that day met the Lord Cnanccllor and Lord Salisbury at the Royal Society, * nd those noble lords expressed the greatest intereta in the supper nnd meeting. The IxJrd Mayor concluded his speech with a spirited-recitation of Eliza Cook’s poem relating to Bruce and the spider, This was a'surprise, and it was so suc­ cessful that there were some cries of ••encore' amid tiw round of cheer*.

Gurlier, D, Kalb, I1L med, a number oi piu-leeding nxperl menu, which go to show, acco dug to his entimatea. that LW pou ida of skim­ milk fed to pigs will produce 6 1-4 ]K)unds iocruMfl in Uve weight, and a bu-hel of corn an average of 12 pounds of increaac. In only one of these experimenia, however, was skim-milk alone fed; bpt in several case* corn alone was fed, boumji tnes Id the ear. sometimes in the whole grain, and sometimes the meal; and the average gain on corn did not exceed the abuva statement. Professor Sanborn, when in New Hampshire, reported twelve to • xteeq quarts of skim-milk as required for one pound of growth, which amounts to less than 8 to 4 pounds of increase for 100 pounds of the milk. Results of recent experiments reported by Dr. Goessman in the last bullet n of the Massachusetts Experiment Station come right between these two ec­ tremes, provided that we accept Mr. Gurlier'a estimate of 12 pounds .in­ crease for each bushel (60 pounds) of corn meal fed. These latest experiments were tried with skim-milk and corn, meal, and with buttermilk and meal, making the above allowance for the procuring power of the meal, nnd find that in throe experiments with skim-milk and 100 lbs. of the milk produced 5 and6.1> 11ml of increase in liveweight, respectively; in thr three experiments with buttermilk and meal, 100 pounds of the buttermilk could be credited with 4, 8, 5, 1 and 5.7 lbs, of increase, respectively. The pigs were R*rksliires, age not given. Mr. Gurlie stated'that he handled mostly Polanu Chinas, although it is not definitely ^hown that his experiment* were con­ ducted with this breed alone. Profei*sor Sanborn’s pigs appear to have boon a cross between Poland China and Chester White, . Mr. Gurlier, figuring on corn meal and bran at <10.50 a ton. and skim­ milk at 25 cents per 100 lbs., estimated the cost of a pound of increase tn live weight on meal, bran and skim-milk to be 3 12^100 cents: on corn meal aud milk the cost was 2 27-100cent*. Pro­ fessor Sanborn, liguring on skim-milk apparently at 10 to 12 cents |n?r l‘X) lbs., and- corn meal at $20 a ton, ob­ tained a pound of increase on the m !k and meal at a oust of 3 to 4 cents; on milk, corn meal and middlings the cost was 2.6 cents in ' onu expen­ men! and 3.4 in another. Dr. Goes*man. rating corn meal »r n ton. skun-miik nt about 22- cents per 100 lb*, and buttermilk at about 15 cents, obtaintxi a pound of increase on meal anti skim-milk at an average cost for the three experiments of 4.9 cents, and on me>il nnd-buttermilk at an average cost of 3.R e«nts. Mr. Gurlier fed from 2 to 1 lbs. of milk io a pound of meal, in those experiments where he estimat­ ed as above the co<t of tlie increase; Professor Sanborn fed from 1.5 to 21ba. of milk to a pound of meal, while Dr. Gpriittnan fed about 12 >hs. of milk to a pound of meal. In connection with tnese tests of the value of skim-milk for pigs; which are the only ones that have come upder my notice as made in this country, it tuny be interesting to give two dr three Ger­ man rotimates of the actual profits of feeding thia milk to pigs. In one < ase tlie profit on each quart of milk was- a little over 0.6 cento; in'another, where a very careful account of the expenses and income was kept, the profit on each quart of milk was in one year 1.4 cents, and In the following year 1.25 cento; the lower results of the second year were caused by some ace.dente to" the slock. The same experimenter tried the milk With calves; but while the iiest animals gave a profit of about 1.4 cento per quart, others gave only about half a cent, and the trouble WNs tnuch great­ er than in the handling of the pigs. Another contributor, however, rejiort d 1 cent profit on each quart, fed 'to calves.—Dr. (?. 0. Caldwell, in X. K I'ribnnc.

One plant gkme of a very rare variety, snow white, with seven flower spikes, was sold to a Mr. Bud, of Chelsea, for >030. This is equal to the tulip craze of a century ago. Baron da Rothschild gave a dinner lost week at which the table was wholly decorated with orchid flowers. They were in one t-olud bank, i£nd covered all the table except the edge which was required for tlie plates. They cost thou­ sands of dollars. Baron Ferdinand da Roths­ child has the tine, t collection of thtso plants in Great Britain. In the present orchidomania which is raging, a single root of a rare kind frequently brings ns much as t-300 to $400. Florists have searched the equatorial regions over for new varieties. Orchid cul­ ture Is a fancy which may well absorb the at­ tention. The rarest specimens need a moist hot-house atmosphere. Homo are air-plants, and grow without a particle of earth. Tlierc are one or two hardy one* growing native in tills country. There arc not more than two or three fine general collections in America. An orchid bouse would be a fascinating at­ traction to a country home. There are many varieties of the family. The flowers coma m such beautiful and fantastic shapes* as almod to baffle description. An Englishman has invented a coiled spring for running sewing machines, doing away with all foot driving. , The word “volt" is used as a jheastire* of electric force.

The offieud report shows that a large number of the powders examined were f?und contain alum or lime; many of them to such an extent as to render them seriously objectionable for use in the preparation of human food., AJurn was found in twenty-nine sam­ ples. This drug is employed in bakinjr powders to cheapeu their cost. The presence of lime is attributed to the inipure cream of tarter of commerce used tn their manufacture. Such cream of u“?r. w" *l'w naalyred and found to contain lime and other impurities, in some samples to the extent of 93 per cent of their entire weight. 1 oe powders of the market,* with the single exception of “Royal" (not including the alum and phosphate powders, which were long since discard­ ed as unsafe or inefficient by prudent housekeepers) are made from the impure cream of tartar of commerce, and conaequently contain lime to a correspond­ ing extent. . , The only baking powder yet found by chemical analysis to be entirely free from Mme and absolutely pure is the . Royal. This perfect purity results from the exclusive use of cream of tar­ tar specially refined and prepared by patent processes of the N. Y. Tartar Cot which totally remove the tartrate of lime and other impurities. The cost of this chemically pure cream of tartar is much greater than any other, and on ac­ count of this greater cost is used in no baking powder but the “Royal." Prof. Love, who made the analysis of baking powders for the New York State Board of Health, as well as for the Gov­ ernment, says of the purity and whole­ someness of “Koval" : ' "I have tested a package of ‘Royal Baking Powder which I purchased in the open market, find it composed -of pure ami wholesome ingredients. It is a cream of tarter powder of a high de­ gree of merit, and does not contain either alum or phosphates or any injuri­ ous substances. “E. G. Love.

Dear SirI.am an engineer on the Old Colony railroad, and run the Fall River boat train be­ tween Full River and Lowell, residing in Taun­ ton. For ten year* 1 suffered everything but death from dyspepsia. Often I had such blind­ ing sick headaches that 1 could scarcely iee. 1 think this was due partly to Irregular habit* ot eating, and partly to the jar ot the engine. Sometimes my >«rad would snap like neuralgia, and again the pain would rattle in my eyes, which would feel ns big as a man’* flirt. My breath was very offensive,.and iny food soured as soon as it entered my stomach. In frat my stomach felt as though It were a<rvai raw and sore surface, and what agony ifgave perhaps you cau imagine. . In the summer and fall of 1K7C when we had the heavy centennial travel, the constant jar brought on acute attacks nearly eYerj' week and I thought I should have toleave the road. But 1 kept at work until the next Hpring. when I grew so much worse that I could virtually eat nothing, uud concluded- that tny hfcor. and my life too, were about over. Remember that 1 had tried every raedlcine 1 heard of, and had been treated by some of the best physicians Jn Taunton and Lowell. At thfa critical time Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy wa* recommended to toe. It was new to me. and with my experience of medicines, you can easily forgive me tor *ayiag that I had not a particle of faith tn It. 1 had taken It but n tew days when I began to get better. The raw and sore feeling left my stomach, and the snapping pain* left my head, and soon I wax all right, and have been ever since. It I* tb<- only thing that ever did me the least good, and It drove every ach *. pain and discomfort completely out of my body. Now I keep Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy with me on my engine, and it gers wherever I go. Why, I believe Favorite Remedy will cure anything. One night, a while ago. John Lkjlou. an etixlneer who runs the main line boat train from Boston, came on my engine sick as death.

For libeling one of the most esteemed professional men in the state, 8 jury rendered a verdict of *20,000 against the proprietors of that paper. (t was an eminently just verdict, recog­ nised as such by the people of Michigan. The News proprietors appealed the case to the supreme court, and tried to fore­ stall a righteous decision then* by bull­ dozing methods. But Judge Cooley and the supreme court of Michigan were not to l>e browbeaten by black­ guardism, and the decision of the lower court was confirmed. For this reason the News has bee® biting at Cooley’s heels ever since. Public opinion, as ex­ pressed at the polls on April 6th, will give the yelping cur another deserved kicking. Thu News had best keep still. The people know the reason for its venomous assaults on so honest, fear­ less, able and good a judge as Hon. Thomas M. Cooley, and are not to be deceived. work is one that holds a very impor­ tant place in school-work. Ita respon­ sibilities as well as its privileges and opportunities rival those of the other departmenta, for with the teacher, sec­ ond only to the parents, rests the impor­ tant task of initiating the young hearts and minds into right ways of thinking and feeling and producing impressions which a lifetime may not efface. I would urge my fellow-workers to try in every way to make the school-room pleasant, and to make the pupils feel at home and happy; and show them in lit­ tle ways that you are their friend and helper, not let them feel that yon in any way wish to command them ; that you are one family, where each has his duty and part to perform. A few pic­ tures on the bare walls of a room, and flowers in their season, have a silent in­ fluence for good and help wonderfully in attracting the little ones, and even the parents, in creating a love for and an interest in the primary schools. People are commencing to recognize the importance of beginning aright, and consequently school-committees in some places employ only the best talent for the very little ones. But I am wan­ dering somewhat from my subject.

Bands and George F. Shrady made an examination of the Gen­ eral's throat with a view of discussing the expediency of a radical surgical operation for the removal of the growth, finch measure would involve a division of the lower jaw at the median line, the exterpution of the entire tongue, and the greater part of the soft palate, together with the removal of the ulcerated and lutlJtrated fauces, and the. indurated glandular struct­ ures under ttee right angle of the lower jaw. Thia Waa considered mocbaaksUy possible, despite the <2o« proximity and probable Involvement of tissues adjoining tiie Uurre arteries and veins in the ucirhborhood of the ulcerations, but la the beet interests of the distinguished patient tbe sur­ geon* did not feel inclined to reoommend this procedure.

In view of tbe exten­ sive surrounding infiltration, that the limits of the disease conld be reached without an immediate risk to life by the severe Shock to th* constitution, already much enfeebled. The low vital power Is such a strong element In the decision that, for the present at least, no kind of operation win be undertaken.

The Adjutant was aocom panled by a squail of militia, and, as Brown and hla deputy offered reHiatance. a forcible' entry was made. Then Mr. Cattell ap­ peared with two clerks and was given formal possession ot the office. It is expected that Mr. Cattell and bia assist­ ants will begin work in tiie morning. Dur­ ing Brown's suspension the Treasurer has refused to honor his warrants, so there is * much public business waiting tiie new Auditor's attention. Ln an interview last nlcht Governor Sherman said lie had waited till tiie constitutionality of his act In suspending Brown had been sus­ tained by the court, and onlj’ used force when other luenns failed.

K.

For the past two years I have been convinced that the cash system is the best for the merchant and his customer, and have been arranging my business for the adoption of the strictly cash system for goods. I will give you briefly my reasons: First—It saves me losses by bad debts and interest on ac­ counts. Secdnfl—It saves me much time, and therefore money, in not having book accounts to look after, duns to send, etc. A good prospect,) for sleighing again this morning. W. H.

The I. O. G. T. society of this place will hold monthly meetings at the M. E. church. Aside from the literary ex­ ercises will be tpeaking by some one from abroad. The exercises last Satur­ day evening were very entertaining. There was a mad dog passed through Bowne, two miles north of Brayton & Child’s mill, last Sunday, and was pur­ sued by several men, to near Hewett’s store in Campbell, where they gave up the chase. They shot at him several times and only succeeded in wounding him. The recent bold robberies at Una Bare’s, in Irving, and Loren B.Tyler’s in Bowne, shouhi cause farmers and others to be cautious about leaving their houses alone or the careless dis­ play of valuables. The tramp after be­ ing" fed in the cities all winter is now abroad in the land. Look out for him. As will be seen by posted notices, the Irving and Bowne township boards of health have prohibited' dogs from run­ ning at large without being properly muzzled. The large number of mail dogs in the country makes the order imperatively necessary. Let every citi­ zen do their best to enforce the law as a protection-to themselves and property. There waa a large company of rela­ tives and friends met at the resident* of Mr. Isaac Segar, Friday evening last, to celebrate the birthday of Mrs. Segar.

Palmer, Nelson-Murray. All fonnerly republicans with but three and possibly two exceptions. Consequently thev are all good men. The democrats held their caucus in the town hall, about 35 were present. D. W. Sipith presided, and the follow­ ing ticket was nominated: Supervisor—Barney Brooks. Clerk—H. L. Walrath. Treasurer—Wm. E. Buell. Highway Com.—George Dillenbeck. Drain “ — “ “ , Justice—D.C. Warner. School Inspector—E. J. Feighner. Constables—W. E. Griggs, Goucher Perkins, H. C. Wolcott, ESO. Hyde. Mr. Brooks and Mr. Btiell are consid­ ered strong men in their party, and democrats express confidence in their election. On the republican ticket pit­ ted against Brooks probably will be Mr. Partly a very strong man, who has yet to meet his first defeat, and who has always run far ahead of bis ticket. Against Buell will probably be Dr. Barber or E; F. Evans, both capa­ ble and strong men. These are the only men that any doubt is expressed on, and probably none would be expres­ sed as to supervisor, but from the fact that Mr. Barry has been elected by large majorities several times. On su­ pervisor and possibly treasurer it will be one of the hottest elections we have had for several years. McDerby for clerk will as usual have a walk away. II. P. Feagles, of Barryville, blooming up as republican candidate for highway commissioner, and with the dissatisfac­ tion with Dillenbeck that we have heard of, Mr. Feagles is sure of election.

Tto VraNb Troop* b Tonquin hi A GREAT WAR IMUTKEXT. London, March 27.—The following is the 4ext of the Queen’s message calling out Uj reserves and militia for active service: "The present «ate of public affairs and the extent of the demand ou her Mnjesiy's mil­ itary forces for the protection of the interests of tne Empire having constituted. In the oplnion of her Majesty, a ca*«of great emergoucy, her Mujenty has dvomed It proper to provide additional mean* for nilhuo-y service. She therefore, thought It right to communito tho House of Commons that nho is about io uausv the reserve forces, and such proportion Of tho mUithi ns might bo deemed uccosrary, to be called out lor permanent •ervlco. . . The. call issued by tbe War Office, in conlnnce with the Queen’s message, is for 58,000 reset ves and 140,000 uiiiitia. Orders for thcusands of ritles and re­ volvers have been sent to Birmingham, tbe arms to be sidpped to Boinlay as rapidly as completed. The factories at Birmingham are working night and day. Orders have been sent ti Chatham to supply immediate­ ly five million cartridges. Earl Granville had an audience with tho Queen last evening. It is expected at pres­ ent 20,000 men of the fmt-dass will be called <mt. with 5,00(1 picked and efficient, men of the militia. Tbe war-ship Mercury will be supplied with two first-class torpedo­ boats and appliances. Thb military .au­ thorities .-tate that a force OL720.000 men could be dispatched from England within a fortnight Thu Dally News says: The Queen’s mes­ sage docs not imply that peace is less hope­ ful. It simply means that England will not shrink from her responsibilities to re­ move tho Im] reason abroad that, sire Is re­ luctant to engage in war. The Hiantlai-d s^ys that calling out the reserves ajtd the unilitla is not so serious a matte! for tire country ns tliu mobilization of a continental army. The entire reserve force and militia comprise only 150,000 men. This number,’ It says, can easily be spared from tlie aggregate population, arid will not seriously interfere with trade or agri­ culture. All preparations now being made indicate that the Cabinet considers It more probable that war will be declared than that an amicable settlement of tho difficulty wil' be reached. The nation Is in a humor to settle the business at once and for all. The general Impres­ sion ia that England is better prepared for war now than she has been lor years. She, can continue the war In the Soudan and also send 70,000 men to India. India was never before so tranquil. The Sottdan campaign proves that the ta»ps are still what they were In the old •lays. Trade has been treated to sneh a regime of self-denial that there is little to kae through war. Never was there such a time in the present generation when the rmtion would bo calmly accept as necessary that which she would never accept as her choice. New York, March 58.—A London cable­ gram to tbe Morning Journal says: War has nut yet been declared* ou Russia, but «n ultimatum has been sent to St. Peters­ burg, which everybody tn England seems hoping that RumIb will reject, so intent are the people on war.

It l« the only alterative that is sufficiently powerful to* thoroughly cleanse the system of Scrofulous anil Mercurial Impurities and the pollution of Contagious Diseases. It ata neu­ tralizes the poisons left by Diphtheria and Scarlet Fever, anu enables rapid recupcnitiou from the cnfeeblement and debility caused by these diseases. Myriads of Cures Achieved by AYER’S HaRHaparilla, In the pa’t forty yean, are attested, and there h do blood disease, at all possible, of cure, that will not yield |o it. Whatever the aliments of this class, and wherever found, from the scurvy of the Arctic circle to the ‘•veldt-sore.’.’ of South Africa, this rem­ edy has afforded health to the sufferers by, whom it was employed. - Druggists everywhere can cite numerous caeca, with­ in their persona! knowledge, of remark­ able cures wrought by it, where all other treatment had been unavailing. People will do well to Trust Nothing Else than Ater’s Sarsaparilla. Numerous crude mixtures arc offered to the public as ‘‘blood purifiers," which only allure the patient with the pretense of many cheap doses, and with which It is folly to experiment while disease is steadily be­ coming more deep-vested and difficult of cure. Some of these mixtures do much lasting harm. Bear In mind that the only medicine that can radically purify the vitiated blood is Bonfield, Mich.

AARON V. McALVEY. editorial Notes. The Lansing Journal proclaims from the house tops the fact that A. B. Morse, tbe “combination” candidate for su­ preme justice, refused free railroad passes while a state senator, and asks “But how stands Thomas M. Cooley on this important question?” He can stand right up alongside of Allen B.' Morse any day in the week, so far as the non-use of passes is concerned, and at the same time over-top him a head and shoulders when legal ability and strength of intellect are taken into con­ sideration. Jerome Eddy, chairman of the democratic committee, met Mr. Morse and other prominent members of tho party in this city on Tuesday night to plan for the future. The details ar­ rived at are not known, but there is every indication that the leaders of the democracy are imbued with the same spirit that sized upon the boy when dig­ ging for the- woodchuck. Don. M. Dickinson stated the democratic posi­ tion concisely and fairly when he said that the. result of the spring election would have a marked effect upon the public patronage which Mich­ igan would receive from the hands of the National administration. While the redoubtable Don. acknowledges the eminent fitness and overshadowing abil­ ity of Thomas M. Cooley as a jurist, he still thinks the democratic masses should “rally round the flag, boys,” sim­ ply for the political crumbs which may­ fall from President Cleveland’s table. If the republicans of the state stand shoulder to shoulder, the vspoils-hunting" opposition will be buried by at least 10,000 majority. Were there any­ thing to call out a full vote democratic hopes would l>e blasted by at least 10,000 republican majority.—Lansing Republican. A Card. CARPETS.

AT RUSSIA WHOLE NO. 1550 Has determined upon war with Egypt, and will proceed to twist the British Lion’s tail, and R. K. Grant, Clothier, has decided to twist thertail ofthe credit business clean off and adopt the strictly cash system, and makes the following an­ nouncement to the people Hastings and vicinity: For the past two years I have been convinced that the cash system is the best for the merchant and his customer, and have beein arranging my business for the adoption of the strictly cash system for goods. I will give you briefly my reasons: First—It saves ine losses by bad debts and interest on. ac­ counts. Second—It saves me much time, and therefore money, in not having book accounts to look after, duns to send, etc. Third— It is much more pleasant for all concerned. Fourth — Because it is the fair way, and the only fair way of doing business. All pay the same prices, and pay the cash. Fifth—and most important. As I pay cash for my goods, by selling for cash I can give my customers better prices than ever Itefore. I know the mer­ chant who sells for cash has at least 10 per cent the advantage over one who tjAes a credit business. This margin I pros, pose to give to my cash cus­ tomers. I can afford to, and they can’t afford to lose such bargains as I offer. April. 15j.h my new spring stock of Clothing, Hats, Caps and Furnishing Goods will be­ gin to arrive. They are the newest patterns. 1 bought them at a bargain for spot cash. Save your money, and take advantage; of the low prices at which 1 shall offer these goods. When you see the goods and prices, you will be convinced that the cash system is the best and most economi­ cal for the customer as well as the^merchant. I tell you truthfully that I will sell these goods to you so cheap for cash that you can afford to pay in­ terest to pay me the money 1 for them rather than buy them ■ on credit Since I have adopted the 1 cash system, I shall make it my rule of business to save my customers money, not offer them : time.

General Grant woke about 6:80 Saturday morning, after nearly eight hours of con­ tinual shep, feeling much refreshed. The patient coughied frequently during the Right, but the attacks were not sufficiently violent to wake him. On the'family assembling he related in a liumoroxs way a dream he had had. Senator Chaffee was in the sick room Saturday evening aud asked tlie patient it be did not feel better. “No,” replied the General, “I am not bet­ ter. I am going to die. You know It u well as I do; so do the doctors. Every moment Is to ine a week of1 agony. The suspense is awful. I don't see the use of prolonging the struggle—1 want to die.” The General experienced many changes of feeling during the day, seeming at times to be falling fast and at others exhibiting wonderful viogor. . The following bulletin was issued at 5:15 yesterday afternoon: “General Grant b«s just awnkmied from a short nap and expressed himself as being very ©omforlablc. He wishes It sa'd that he is very much touched and very grateful for the pravorfnl sympathy and interest manifested tor him by his friends and by those whn here­ tofore have not been regarded as such. He says: *1 dedre the good will of all whether heretofore friends or not.” At the time Dr. Shrady sat down to write the 5:18 bulletin, General Badeau and Gen­ eral Grant were speaking of the kindness of so many people in calling. Dr. Shrady touted to General Grant and remarked that the General was so well it was bard to pre­ pare bulletins. Then General Grant dictated the 5:18 bulletin, the doctor, by Die Gen­ eral’s desire, quoted him in the first perron In the last sentence ns Indicated. BIG FAILURE IN VIRGINIA.

In W oodland last spring the fusionists elected their entire ticket, by ma­ jorities ranging from 21 to 50. This spring the republicans elect clerk, jus­ tice and school inspector. Rutland republicans feel jubilant over the fact that they have succeeded in cutting down the opposition majority in that township to a very small num­ ber. Rutland can no longer be counted as fusion stronghold. The personnel of the board of super­ visors would be incomplete without Hon. A. C.

Hope, this spring, is a misnomer for republicans;-at least such is the case with the township in this county bear­ ing that name. But there is one oasis in- this dreary waste—the republicans elected Isaac Tolles j’ustice of the peace. Archie McCoy was the successful candidate for aiderman in the 4th ward, although Mr. Parker ran ahead of his ticket. Nel. says he has other and more important business for the coining year than fighting wordy bat­ tles in the palatial city hall. Republicans feel encouraged at the result in the county. While it is true that we have not secured a majority of .the supervisors, it is also true that we have made large gains in the county­ in reducing fusion majorities, and in tlie increased number of township offi­ cers elected. ' If our memory is not at fault Hicks, Long et al, swore >epgeance against Abe Ellis because he would not be a candidate for marshal on the republi­ can ticket, in the hdpe that he would be laid on the shelf and the firm of Hicks & Long thus get the little constable business given to him. Ellis was elec­ ted constable by u large majority. The contest on supervisor in Rutland was very close, John Dawson and James D. Benham being the opposing candidates. Upon counting the ballots Benham had one majority, but it was discovered that two republican tickets were folded together, which necessi­ tated their being thrown out, leaving the vote on supervisors a tie. The can­ didates drew lots ‘for the office, and Mr. Dawson was the lucky individual. The Woodland board of election now claim they made a mistake in declaring the result of the election in that town­ ship, in accrediting the republican tick­ et with 19, more votes than it actually received; This adds 19 votes to the fusion majority and takes that manv from the majority of the republicans elected. Remarks are out of order. Perhaps a republican board, laboring under a like apprehension, might have made a like mistake.

Yes, the hero of Appomattox is dy- iDfie who knew no fear in war, knows no fear in suffering. His quiet forti­ tude wins universal admiration. I’resident Lincoln, in visiting a hos­ pital during the late war, noticed a poor confederate boy, mortally wounded. With his native tenderness he put his arms around his neck in sympathy. The sight melted the hospital to tears. The heart of the American people in like manner bleeds for Grant, the silent sufferer. It would have him get Well, by any effective means. His physicians say he cannot recover. Thev-fill him with anodynes but des­ pite their favorable bulletins he is daily growing worse. A specialist who has won reputation in the treatment of cancer visits his bedside. The opposition he encounters -from the attending physicians brings painfully to mind the story of the dog in the nianger. And General Grant, perhaps, must • die because of this intolerance’ Is it possible that there is no hope of cure * outside of the medical profession ? Preposterous! For years medical men insisted that But certain fevers were incurable. Chincona proved tlie contrary, For centuries they have protested that cer­ tain renal disorders Were incurable and /et a certain preparation has cured and permanently cured the very worst cases. Why may it not be possible in like manner to cure a case of cancer ? B. F. Larrabee, of Boston, was doomed to death by many eminent Boston physi­ cians. J. B. Henion, M. D.» of Roches­ ter. N.

Pres­ cott, of Cleveland, Ohio, was gravely informed by them that "he could not live, and yet these men and thousands like them' have been cured and cured Sermanently, of serious kidney disord­ er, by a remedy not officially known to the code. What has been done may lie done again. General Anson Stager died of Bright’s disease in Chicago last week. "Joe" Goss, the Boston pugilist, died of it. Hundreds of thousands of people perish of it every vear, while In tbeir doctor’s hands. The cause of death may be called blood poisoning, paralysis, heart disease, convulsions, apoplexy, pneu­ monia, or some other common ailment, but the real difficulty is in the kidneys. Physicians know it but they conceal the fact from their patients, realizing their inability to cure, by atty, "author­ ized’’ means. The remedy that cured Larrabee and Henion and Prescott (i.e., Warner’s Safe cure) is a special, inde­ pendent discovery. Its record entitles it to recognition, and it gets it from in­ telligent people. Ite manufacturers have an unsullied reputation and are entitled to as great consideration as any school of physicians. Proffessor R. A. Gunn, M. Bean of the United States Medical College of New York City, rises above profession­ al prejudice and on ite personally prov­ ed merits alone gives it several pages of the warmest commendation in his pub­ lished works—the only instance on rec­ ord of va high professional endorsement of sucn a preparation. The unprejudiced people do not want General Grant to die. If there is in all nature or anywhere In the world a rem­ edy or a inan’ able to cure his cancer, give them a chance. WiUthey do it? No. Why? Is it not too often the case that jnany excellent physicians who are greatly devoted to the code, would prefer that their patients should die rather than tliat they should recover health by the use of any remedy not recognized under their eode?

A striking illustration of the great change that the hands of time brings about in the affairs of men, is well exemplifled in the history of the democrat party of this country for the few last decades; in which time It has been ar­ gued for and in behalf of this party, that’slavery was a divine institution, and the bible was quoted to prove the truth of the assertion. The colored people of the south were said to be only fit for slaves and they yrere bred and sold like mules. And if they sought their liberty in flight, they were followed by the blood hounds of a “lave aristocracy, and free men were obliged by the law of the land to assist in catching and returning them.. The repeal of’the Missouri compromise, state righte and squatter sovereignty were .said to be" just,the thing for a profitable increase in these chattels. The lata rebellion came from this party and its teachings, and this party gave to it all it had. even the men who cheered when the boys in blue lost a victory , and those who declared the war for the union to be an unholy war and a failure. It also gave all of the men, who by their votes in congress, opposed measures for the restoration of the union', and it denounced the most oi of its leading men, who thought more of the union than party. The hand of time leaves its print upon everything. Nations come and go. One form e.f government succeeds another, anti even new isles and moun­ tains appear; but it is not very often ed, disloyal and a rebellious people, in the life time of the same gttmratkxi, the same men is placed high in the □aalaioua ifthin was not so, then the now half : regenerated democratic party, goaded j। on bv and -nat-reu, hatred, wooid omiDT defeat aeieai ana i tinue tinue to to fill fill the the land land with with ita 11 blaatiar —M— breath, to the detriment of the bort ‘ interest of-------all, as" it has been its woat to do in the past. But now having Msuuied the responsibility of taking care of and giving direction to the affairs of the people, while it finds itself in the unenviat.te position to maintain many thing* which in the past it has been its pleasure to resolve and denounce as re­ publican misdoings. It now finds am­ ple employment to consummle plans for the benefit of the people, and to pre­ serve the peace within its own fold. What a change! A reality, that would seem more like a dream than a fact, if it were not for the living monumentir that too plainly and sorrowfully testify to its truth. Election is over, And it is noticed that many of the soldier boys irre­ spective of party, gave their votes to their late comrade. Major Morse; that some men thought that the state might be lifted out of a legal rent by the re­ moval of Judge Cooley, but more par­ ticularly that the feeling between re­ publicans and the prohibitionists is such, that it lost more votes for J udge Cooley than the prohildtionists gave him, and that the prohibitionists, when their state ticket was not at hand, vot­ ed Cooley and the fusion regents with alacrity. Also, that the democrats, greenliackers and prohibitionists are one against the republicans, and must be so counted. / When men go out to hunt, the small cure are put to scent the game, while lhe big dog is kept in reserve to pick it up when it has been well worried. The big dog is the democratic party—it picked up Mr. Cleveland—St John and bluff old Ben. are rusticating. The democratic party having«been re­ solving about the misrule of the repub­ lican party “for the last twenty-five ears" now that Mr. Cleveland is presient, and for the success in this state at the last election, did at its last con­ vention in this state, set the time “for the last twenty years,” cutting off the war period and then nominating a one armed soldier. Major Morse, for judge of the supreme court, to catch the soldiers vote to win. It has won. And now it is recorded that it has taken the democratic party twentyfive years to learn that at least five years of republican • rule has nut been a “failure.” This is about the average rate of democratic progression, so that at the expiration of one hundred years more, when its JeffDavis’s.VaUandighams, Scymo’ra, Brick Pomeroys, Hendricks and their teach­ ings shall be forgotten; the old - republi­ can party with its Lincoln, Garfield, Grant, Seward. Stanton, Stephens, Mor­ ton and a host of others, with its his­ tory, will stand forth as the bright, shining, morning star, and will go down to children’s children, and be pro­ claimed upon a thousand hills and upon the house-tops, a song of poetry, as firm in the right, -with chanty for all and midacc toward none,” the de­ fender of good government and of the rights of man. J On election eve, a leading greenllack­ er met bis friend and said to him, “I hear that you have voted the republi­ can ticket. How is it?” “I have.” “Why did you do itF “I will tell you. It was my privilege. I am a republican in preference to be­ ing a democrat. To forget and forgive sounds well in poetry, but you must pardon me when 1 tell you that there are some things that a man cannot forF‘t. My strong right arm upon which have depended, now lies mouldering somewhere in the sunnv south, the thoughts of which recall no pleasant recollections of the democratic party. It is very little that I thought while fighting for the union that my vote should ever be given to assist the dem­ ocratic party, with all of its attach­ ments to power again. But wb® the war was over, greenbacks had depredat­ ed to about thirty-six cents cm the dol­ lar, and large debts had bHin wade upon that liaais, so that when resump­ tion was nropoeed, I and many others thought tliat it would be hard on the debtor class, and that grrenbadks should not be canodled by issuing bon&—’ that they should approach to par with the prosperity of the countrv, and that paper money or nudium of er change in place of bank notes. And to thia end the green bark party «u organlaad It prospered, but reosgadra of the oM parti™ came docking to it,—tt be­ came divided and than drifted, drifted, drifted to become a plaything for uniwupulous politicians and a t»B to the democratic party—a party that me empty sleeve admonlahae methat I <annot support.

In the nature of things, there can not much longer be the alightart excuse for any union between the democratic and greenback parties in this state. President Cleveland, both in his own ex pressed sentiments and the selection of his cabinet, has shown himself unal­ terably opposed to any of the theories or alleged principles of the greenback party. The new administration will be radical in but one point, and that is its conservatism. Civil service reform and “administrative reform” are the only subjects in which 1‘resident Cleveland geams to be interested. He will travel mostly in the beaten paths of republi­ canism. and any change in national pol­ icy is not to be looked for. The execu­ tive will be content to conserve the good that his republican predecessors have handed down to him—his only di­ gression will be a more rigid enforce­ ment of civil service rules and the lop­ ping off of a few clerks. There will be little or no tariff legislation, and none of a financial sort. The course of the new president will be a straightfor­ ward one in conservative, business-like administration. There is nothing in his acts or utterances to draw toward Mm even the slightest greenback sup­ port. If they have hoped for anything favorable to them, they have based their hopes on nothing. He has ap­ pointed to one of the leading places in hip cabinet a Massachusette democrat whose most eminent pervice to his par­ ty was his opposition to Ben. Butler, wherever he could make it count. All his cabinet officers are men who oppose any radical change of any sort; men who think the country has done well enough with laws and. institutions as they are. The affiliation of the fusioniste has been for spoils alone. Quarrel­ ing over the loaves and fishes, the fact that men will not. long; barter princi­ ples to help a few men to power, and the fact that all of its old landmarks are gone, will soon lead to the gradual disintegration of the greenback forces. There can be but two political parties of any prominence, and the greenback party cannot be one of them. It is alive to-day only because of its useful­ ness to a few men in bargaining for offices. A warmed oyer hash of form­ er greenback platforms has kept alive some of the prejudices upon which greenbackism is grounded. But to ex­ pect anything lasting from that source is to expect something from nothing. The party must break ranks, and its members fall in line with whichever of the two great political organizations of the day, democrat or republican, co^/s nearest their own ideas. Their own party has lost its identity, and the pro­ gress of events has robbed it of all its shibboleths. Party ties fall loosely in these days, but in none so much so as in the heretofore solid ranks of the greenback party. It therefore behooves all gruenbackera to cast about them for new political affiliations; to study the situation carefully, and determine with which of the two, democrat or republi­ can, they care to cast t^eir lot. * The war cloud which has been hover­ ing about the European countries is by no means clearing, but seems rather more threatening. It now seems that but one course is left to England, either to fight Russia, or confess herself afraid to meet her powerful adversary. Complications over the Afghan border question increase rather than diminish, and portend a prolonged and terrible struggle between England and Russia for the mastery in Asia. It would seem that other nations must become embroiled too, and the little question of a foundry line between two semi-bar­ barous peoples may array in open hostil­ ity the civilized nations of Europe. Another Jackson county murder has lately been unearthed. HenryW. Smith, living about three from Jackson, mys­ teriously disappeared in December last. Ilin decomposed body was last week found in a manger in that city. A few circumstances pointed to a hard case named Halstead as the murderer. The clues were vigorously followed, and more and direct evedenca of Halstead’s guilt were found. He was confronted with all these damaging facts, and con­ fessed the crime, was taken before Judge Gridly, plead guilty, and was sentenced for life at hard labor, Mon­ day. No great loss without some small gain. If England and Russia are found to fight, it will become the pleasant duty ot America to supply the comtaariea with preswd-beef and flour. If free trade is such an intensely good thing, why is it that the agitation for increased duties in England grows ,a«, but pert ot the time uneooedom.

Kelly, Poet Adjutant, of Otaego, requests us to publish the following: Isaac Fairbrother, of Otsego, Mich., who by -moral perjury” in representing himself to be an honorably discharged soldier of the late war, and upon such misrepresentation?, gained membership to the W. G. Eaton Post, G. A. R-, of that place, was dropped from the post, and is looked upon with contempt by all old soldiers. Fairbrother was at one time a resident of Orangeville. Below are a tew items that will be ot interest to tho patrons of our schools. The term just "closed has been a very interesting and successful one. With the extra help which the board so generously furnished, the work has been better done both in the high school And in tho teachers* class. The normal class was a large and en­ thusiastic one, and contained teachers from every part of the county. To­ gether with the county association, it will make itself felt in every nook and comer of tho county. New plans are being matured, and will soon be work­ ing for the further advancement of the teachers in their work, and we most confidently assert that a new era is opening for the schools of Barry county. ‘C Quality < to be Clo for Caah.

No. 2 in the Combination, the second fiddler, says we can’t buy the same teas he sells. We never asked to buy them—we merely asked for samples to show our customers what a big humbug it was,.and that we could buy the so-called Tycoo1 tea in any market. In short, 'we knew we had a better brand of Japan, which we were selling 2| lbs for $1.00, than the puffed-up fraud of “Tycoon," which onr competitors sell for 50 cte. per lb. “Tycoon tea” should be named “Sly coon tea,” since some sly coon of a jobber made the brbnd and palms it off as something original in Japan! It is not known in any of the tea markets of the world. It is a jobber’s brand, made for the purpose of selling at fancy prices. We never have thought it good policy to buy any jobber’s brand of any kind of goods, for when a retailer has worked up a trade on such a brand he places himself at the mercy of the jobber, which is certainly not a good plan for the retailer nor his customers.

The attack was not severe, but he did not seem to rally after the throat appeared perfectly well. Nausea, headache and low fever suc­ ceeded the sore throat, and two or three days afterwards his limbs began to - swell mysteriously. The skin became very dry. vomiting was frequent, nose­ bleed was persistent, and nothing would stay in his stomach. "It was evident to oar minds," says Mrs. Thomas Schmidt, wife of the vice-consul of Denmark, re­ siding at Netherwood, N. J., “that sumo mysterious malady was working ruin in his system. Our physician said he hod the terrible bright s disease. To our.sugge tion that a certain preparatibn be tried, he made no objection. We gave him six doses a day, two teaspoon­ fuls at a dose, in sweetened water. It remained upon his stomach, and within , a week there was marked improvement. The liowels became regular without the use of cathartics, and the nausea dimin­ ished; in three weeks there was a sub­ sidence of the dropsy, and by the middle of May tbe limbs were perfectly nor­ mal. lie had a’ good appetite, and could take three pints or milk daily. By the first of May he was up, and though he had spent six months in bed. he did not feel particularly weak. In June he was out, feeling perfectly well, and in J uly he weighed eight pounds more than Le did before he was taken sick. To-day there is only a slight un­ favorable condition in his system, and tiie physicians say we have everv reas­ on to believe the child will be perfectly well.” Mr?. Schmidt is certainly to be con­ gratulated on the good results which followed the use of Warner’s Safe Cure, and she says: “We feel bound to make this truly wonderful result known, and are perfectly willing to have this letter published.” Gratifying as is the result __ wrought, it is by no means singular, for thousands of children, who seemed weak and puny, have had their entire nature changed and their future assur­ ed by a prompt use of the sa'ftie prepar­ ation. Such disorders are transmitted by inheritance, or arise from children's epidemic diseases, the evil effects of which often prove fatal in later life. The secret of tiie ill-health of many children is that their kidneys and liver are not perlorming their natural work.

In reply to a question, the matur.i. I h»d Kuflcrcd with that diaensc for fifteen years. My hands and. my joints were swelled. I luul much pain,and many sloepleas nights. It took my pain away, and gave me power to sleep. Do not understand me to say that my rheumatism is all gone. It would be a miracle if rheu­ matism could be entirely driven away from an old man like me, who has had it for years. I have some of it left, and occasionally I feel its pains. Then I take more Athlophoroa. and the pains are driven away. Even if it can’t entirely drive out the cause of pain from a man who has had it so long, it takes the pain away, and that is u great deal. Sometimes I had frightful pains at night, before going to bed. Then I would hike a dose of .Atnlopboroe, and I soon find the pain all gone, to that I could enjoy a calm and refreshing night’s rest. *T believe Athlophoros will cure chronic rheumatism. I know that is saying a-great deal for it; but I say it. A tough old case of rheumatism like mine is very hard to cure, I know. But sec my hands; they are no longer swelled as they were. I am free from the pains I used to have. I sleep well, and what more can an old man of 84 ask for?” Mr. Beecher’s daughter cheerfully con? finned what her father had said, and gave her testimony to the great advantages he had received from the use of Athlopnoros. For a number jif years, Mr. C. L.

He is now well. Calling on Mr. Wetmore^ at his store on Fifth avenne, the gentleman, found him willing to converse ns to his exper­ ience in regard to rheumatism. “I am told, Mr. Wetmore, that you got rid of your rheumatism by the help of Athlophoros. Is that true?” “Well, I had been for a long while troubled with rheumatism, and I had tried almost everything in die line of medicine,! may fairly say that Athlophoros finished the rheumatism, and finally over­ came iu Some of the other remedies had given me relief, which proved only temporary and incomplete. But it was not so with the Athlophoros. ,Since I have taken it I find that I have no more rheumatic pains, either to annoy me by day, or to intmere with my sleep by night. My rheumatism was at times very severe. All my joints were swollen, and were very painful. I was detained at home sometimes ns much as a month at a time, suffering acutely and unable to attend to business. Now that Athlophoros has finislied the rheumatiam, I am happy to say that my sleep is good, my appetite is regular and healthy, and I am every day attendfcg to business.” If you cannot get AniLoraonos of your drug­ gist, wo will send it express paid, on receipt of n-gulnr prtoc—one doUar per txrttlc.

They express the opinion tiiat the affairs of the Northwest liave been grossly mismanaged by tbe Govern­ ment, which Is responsible for the troubles, and consequently they will not fight against men who are only standing up for tiieli righta They demand the removal of Gov­ ernor Dbwdneyand other Northwest of­ ficials wbo brought on tbe troubles by mal­ feasance and mismanagement A special to tbe Sun from Qu*Appelle says: Norbert Welsh, a wealthy lialf-breed fa the Qu'Appelle Valley, arrived yester­ day from tlie rebel camp, having deserted. He says the rebel force is twelve hundred— all well armed and equipped. Middleton is running Into peaceful quarters at Batouche, and Riel, by evading him, will come down to Touchwood, seize the supplies there, and then go on to ‘Fort, Qu’ApjMille with two field pleere, which he has. Welsh says’ that Middle­ ton’s somite are not worth anything. They never slfcht tbe enemy, whereas the half­ breed scouts are constantly within rang* . of Uic Government scouts. Rich has every •hope of starving our. troops out by cutting off supplies. The facto of tbe tebels crossing to the east side of tlie sonth branch ta force, accord­ ing to our owd reporta, together with Welsh's opinion of our scouts, gives his ac­ count the appearance of being reliable. Ac­ cording to Welsh. Riel* says that he will rule or pertah; will be King or die. He also claims to. have the promise of aid from Fenians and Irish Nationalists, and says he Is acting under Divine directions. THRKK PRISONXKS TAXRM.

Y^ April 10th, 1885. MR. J. H. BEAMER, Hastings, Mich., Dear Sib:—We are in receipt-of your favor of the 9th, and note fully your remarks regarding other partiefl selling our seeds in Barry county. In reply we have to say that we have sold no other dealer but youreelf this season, and if any other parties are selling our goods they are disposing of some old stock that they have on band from previous seasons. Of course we cannot Interfere with this, as the goods were doubtless sold outright to them in ’88 or *84. You may know, however, if they are retailing their seeds at one cent per paper they must be very undesirable stock, as they cost them more than that. We do not think that under the circumstances, when parties understand that the seeds are not of this year’s stock, that the competition will amount to anything, as you have the only freah seeds in that territory freftn us. Trusting this will be satisfactory, we are, Yours very truly, Hiram Sibley & Co. This shows to what smallness the Combination will resort in attempting to compete with our low prices.

There is faith in God, faith in self, and in'humanity. The first produces the others. Faith in humanity believes that life is worth living and worth sav­ ing.

Many a woman lacks the faith of Chedidja. If they had faith in their own reserve of physical power, confi­ dence in the personal experience of others would follow; and instead of a race of suffering mortals,—slaves to the prejudices of those whose only interest in them is bounded by their profession­ al fees—we should see nobility of sta­ tion reinforced by-nobllity of mind, and robustness of life. The jwwer to rid themselves of the aches, pains and desperate despair which afflict them, is in women and ought to come out.

We want more life and fuller, and need all the help we can get. Man would fail were it not lor the Checfidjas. There is much in good di­ gestion to keep a woman sweet and,lov­ able. There is more in thorough action of the great blood purifying, organs— the liver and kidneys, for if they are deranged women cannot have the phy­ sical com forTSo craved and prayed for.

He hUMains his theories with much ingenious rea“oningv which might be answered, perhaps, with rea­ soning equally ingenious, Some of his pointe are worthy of passing notice. As to the Scandinavian origin of the. Aryan race, he shows that the dolicho• sephalic tvpe of skull is almost universal In Swedish Graves of the Iron Age, the Bronze Age and the Stone Age, that the primitive Aryans, as shown by. tha •wdcnce of language, knew only such uftmab (the bear, the wolfl and such plants (the birch, the beech and the oak,) as are found in the temperate *6ne.

Tbe motion to strike out was finally withdrawn. The bin went through section by sec­ tion, during which Senator Carveth in­ jected two new sections, both providing for cases where Michigan roads come into competition with roads so engaged in inter-state commerce as not to be amendable to the bill. Senator Hawley then attacked the bill as a whole. He said that the legislature could not con­ trol roads extending from a point with­ in to a point without tbe limits of the state, and that thereby towns without state the oould be built up at the expense of those within. Mr. Carveth said this was fully provided for in the bill, and that the legal proposition of Mr. Haw­ ley was not souqd. Mr. Hawley said that he had seen a recent decision of the U. S. supreme court to that effect. Mr. Carveth asserted that the decision referred to was a decbion of one of the U. 8. circuit judges of Tennessee, and there was no such U. S. supreme court decision, and presented several authori­ ties) to sustain his proposition and over­ throw that of Mr. Hawley.

" All have heard of the Column Ven­ dome at Paris, an obelisk of grmt h-Jgbt,.with the figure of N.polro^E on top; the jame that toni down by tbe mob of the Commune during Iu brief but tieroe reign after the FrancoGerman war. The Radicals of Pari, thought nothing short of hammering Napoleon down would do. 8 After the July revolution in 1830 thp figure was linn hoisted up on the obe­ lisk and there, was to be a great paeeant q*“«" bP h? King Louis Philli^“j all the world was Invited to eSm.. re Parin and -see the show. Among them came Mr. Smith, of our citv. He rot out withm large p.tty, but he and * Inend neglected to engage rolms. So when they arrived In Pari, the even­ ing before tho grand opening they found every redpeetahle hotel full. Six noun, were they driving over Paris to and a room any room, merely to sleep inAt Iwt, in a dingy house in the mfbnrb. a landlord .& hTL“ ow bed left, but the room was not ven’ elegant. “No matter, no matter:’ shouted Smith; “let’s have it at once!” They were terribly fatigued, hastily sarwyed the lied, scarce! v tdok a look at tlie na>m and tumbled In. In a few minutes they wenrsound asleep. They slept the bleep of innocence ami many hours passed over their closed eyelids. Finally Smith woke up. hut seeing no daylight nor hearing any noise ou the streets he recollected the fatigue of the evening. turned around and took another nap. After awhile hfa friend awoke. . It occurred to him that he had been sleeping sound -aud long. He concluded to have an­ other nap after so much trouble. Ln twenty minutes Mr. Smith moved again, and, .finding all still, listened, if Mr. Jones, his friend, was awake. He found he was. “Jones,” he said, “couldn’t you get up and look out the window?” “I will, ’ said Mr. Jones, and felt around the room for a win­ dow. Finally he found one and opened it, looked out .and said, “all pitch dark yet. Smith—not a ray of dawn—it must be quite early—nor any matches • -forgot all about them in the fatigue last night—and the repeater has run down, too!” So back to bed. Gradually they heard noises and voices. “It’s queer,” said Smith, and got up to go for the window, He opened it and all was pitch dark yet. He hehrd somebody knocking and asked, “What tihie is it?" “Just half-past ten.” “What?” shouted Smith and friend both, “half-past ten; and the Vendome inauguration oomes off at ten o’clock precisely! Why didn’t you waken us?” “Ah, messieurs, very, very sorry, but you did not leave orders.”' By this time Smith had approached the door and opened it. Daylight fell in copiously from the outside, ilhimin­ uting their, lodging places. “The "window” was a cupboard with glass doors. The apartment had’ no win­ dows. They did not witness the grand cele­ bration, and left Paris in disgust. It was a sore disappointment, but Mr. Smith was not to be । ut down so easily. He was going to Paris again on the very first occasion there would be a show, and he would arrange quite differently. /J ’ The day came when the ashes of Na­ poleon I. lately brought from St. Hele­ na were to be deposited at tlie Dome of the Invalides. Thousands were again .streaming into Paris. Mr. Smith and friends this time were cosily ensconced in apartments in a hotel near the scene of tho ceremonies. In due time he secured a good place ' from which he could view the cav­ alcade. The solemn music came nearer and the tramp of the battalions; the people pressed ‘closer and closer. Little elbow room was left • Most people had their hate ofc ..The casket with the precious ashesdame in sight All heads were uncovered and the awe wa^-great, only Mr. Smith’s head remaineJF irrev­ erently adorned. "Hateoff! Monsieur!" said a voice behind him. “Hat off!" Mr. Smith tried to comply, but he couldn’t move an elbow quick: enough. A stick came down upon his hat: a blow, and the hat went down over Smith’s face; another blow and it went still further down over the back of his head, covering the ears and the nose; there it stuck. Mr. Smith was envel­ oped in darkness. Some laughed and some cursed. All thought it served him right Only when the crowd dispersed could he raise his arms and push up his chapeau and regain daylight. But the ceremonies were over then .and tho people were going homo. Smith left in disgust a second time. And that’s the way he gained his ap­ pellation of “Smith of Paris.

It ta not likely that the princess styles will be displaced, hut some ol forms will be revived —tlie yoked waist attached to moderately full tucked skirts, and the single skirt with hem and tucks instead of the draperied overskirt and polonaise. These styles are particularly suitable for cottons, linens and muilins, and may be very well applied to thin wools.

There is dq way to sell goods cheap except for cash. When a merchant has to take chances with customers by selling goods on time, he must protest himself by selling the goods at high prices. Even then he is the loser by the worry and work of keeping Itooks and collecting accounts, with continual losses of interest and from poor accounts. You can easily see how it is. and you know as wall as I that the credit dealer cannot sell as close as the cash dealer. For these reasons, I art not surprised at seeing many new customers in my store. They are the people who do not run ac­ counts, and they know that when they want clothing, hats, caps, underware, collars, cuffs, neckties etc., that. I can give them better value for their money than any other clothier in Barry county, for I am theonly one who sells exclusive­ ly for cash. When you want good goods in my line, and want to get them at the very lowest prices, you will call on me.

An instance of an enterprising man in an enterprising town was illustrated a few days ago when an old citizen of the place loudly proclaimed that a man ought to be cheated who patronized other than the old tradesmen of the place.

He expects to remain there two or three months under the care of Dr. Ward, who thinks the Kansas cli­ mate combined with his professional skill, will effect a permanent cure. As is well known here, Mr. Chesebrough has been suffering for the last two years from the effects of a severe at­ tack of phlegmonous erysipelas. That he may soon return to his family and many friends here completely restored to health, is the earnest prayer of all who have so long and favorably known him. The out-come of the meeting held in town last week to decide in regard to the establishment of a efieese factory here, did not result very favorably. But 19 oows were guaranteed by the farmers present. It would undoubted­ ly pay our farmers to endorse a cheese factory here providing it Is Conducted in a proper manner. <> * Od We have come to the conclusion that winter will continue all summer, so ex­ pect soon to be sleigh-riding again.

The people desire to know when the weather will be warm enough to plant corn. The Tarries of snow we have had the past week look rather discour­ aging to the farmers.

Perhaps it is best that thy should not, as the beet results often come from opposition. Yet “as a man is educated so fie thinks, and as he thinks so he acta;” also “that men are nearly alike under like circum­ stances,’’ comes very nearly to the truth, the chief exception being a con­ scientious regard tor the rights of others. So that however much ma may differ and become heated in debate, it is only fair to accord to them an hon­ esty of purpose. It is the education of the Hindoo mother that causes her to throw her child into the river to ap­ pease the wrath of her God, and not because she is naturally different from other mothers. And so it is in the po­ litical education and training of men has more to do with their political pref- ‘ erenees than the rights and the facts in the case will sometimes ^arrant. The writer was born and bred a dem­ ocrat of the strictest sect, having been educated in the school of John C. Cal­ houn, Jeff. Davis, Case and Douglass, and to such an extent as to believe that the “nigger" was only fit forastaveand to work in a climate that is too hot for his master or white men to labor in; also to hate even the name abolitionist, and to have gone so far, prior to 186$, as to deciare that if the north should make war on the south to froe the “nig«sr,” that he would fight for the south. ut upon reflection and more mature yean, he came to believe, without any ••mental reservation,” “that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are Ufa, liber­ ty and the pursuit of happiness," and that of all men, the poor, the ignorant and the degraded should not be denied them, and so ga^e his political support to the republican party m Rs taiancy It was the same political education that caused the poor people of the south to support the pro-slavery cause, and to hate the “nigger," while at the same time it forced them to work and live by the side of slave labor and drove them to the mountain sides to live with the foxes. it was the same education that caused the democratic party to sustain the institution of slavery which result­ ed in the late rebellion; to maintain the right of recession; to declare the war to be an unholy war; that the government had no right to coerce and to oppose al) measures to suppress the rebellion. At this late day, in the light of his* tory, and under all of the circumstances, to a man who has never been schooled as a democrat, ft seems Impossible to be­ lieve that the democratic party has been honest in its convictions and in all that it has said and done; it seems to be so contrary to the rights of men and to good government. Nevertheless, this party basketed in good faith according to the light that ft has had. it has de­ fended itself with a zeal that would be­ come a better cause. It has slow to learn; but public sentiment as exem­ plified through the republican party has caused it to abandon, unwittingly’ nearly all of its former positions; un­ wittingly, because it continues to curse the hand that has educated and led it to a better civilization; and although it would not now return to its former po­ sitions if it could, it has not the frank­ ness or the manliness to admit, what ail men know, that it has lieen wrong for the. last thirty years, and that the republican party has, been right as to the issues between the two parties- but through Mr. Cieveand's administration will prove it so to be. So much for a political education that is founded upon injustice to the inherent rights of men and to good government. It is now heat that the democratic party, not by the democratic votee aione, but by independent republican votes should hold the administration of the government; for if not, then the issues of the few last decades would not • be admitted to be settled; for this party would still be resolving that they are failures; but now this administration will acquiesce in and adopt what has been done, so that the democratic party will’ practically admit, what it has never nad the courage to do, that it haa been wrong and the republican party right, bo it is that a silent, unseen band, in the course of time, everything else being eijual, causes the right to prevail. Where now are the “Lincoln skins that would never be paid;" “that the time would come, that it would take $100 of them to buy a man* a meal?” Where now is “pay the bonds in green­ backs" with a mental reservation th-it the greenbacks would never be paid V .. Anu what about that taxation that has z so greatly reduced the public debt and the intereat on the bopus Y What about fiat money and many other kindred questions? They are gone, and are now among “the relics of the dark ages." Republicans, you “black republicans." who are tuned through and through, you who have i/cen through the thick of the fight and have never been found wanting, do you not now fed better that you have l»een republicans ? You have.but little to regret, white nearly all that the democrat and greenback parties have contended for has been tried and found wanting. Fall into enemy, the democratic party, have lifted the democratic part the rut, it will never return vomit. So may it be.

Tlie priests stated tliat the steamer had orrivejt at a point f little above Batocheat 5:30 Hint morning, and the rebels immediately began to Ore or ber from both banks of• the river.

Here a battery was un limbered and from the top of tbe ridge over looking the valley shells wen- thrown at tlie labels. While the artillerymen were thus en­ gaged. a number of rebels hat crept quietly up through tlie bush until within twenty yards of them, not being discovered until with yellsand war-whoops they niMM for­ ward to oelzo the guns. Captain Howard at once perceived the danger, and with cool daring ran his gun forward a couple of yards In front of the battery, and opened a fire which literally'mowed down the advent* tirous rebels. Tlioee that snrvled the deadly / fire of the gun turned and ran for the sbeltei \f Jhe bu-vit. from which they resumed th It firing. They were effectually repulsed with great loss.

Bishop Bowman,'*on being asked " was the relief which Hr. Southard experienced more than you had expected replied: "Certainly it was, for I had not expected anything. I brought him the Athfopboros because I had seen that it had done so much good to Mr. Keely and others in In­ dianapolis.

Respectfully, Report comes that General Grant’s improved condition to due to the fact that he is using a “simple vegetable preparation” forwarded by one of our consuls from South America, and sent him by the Surgeon General! Is this possible! By an “unauthorized” remedy ? Stocking! And yet, if this “simple vegetable preparation” were owned and advertis‘ed by any one as a specific for this ter­ rible disease, certainly the Burgedn General would not recommend it, nnr would bigoted physicians prescribe IT Nevertheless, n is rfact that manv of the best proprietary medicines of‘the day, as the late Dr, J. G. Holland stated in Scribner’s Monthly, were more suc­ cessful than manv physician”, and most of them, it should be remembered, were at first discovered or used in actual .medical practice. WThen, however, any shrewd persons, knowing of their virtue and foreseeing their popularity, secured and advertised them, then, in the opin­ ion of the bigoted, all virtue went out oftbem! Isn’t this absurd! We believe that a remedy, if properly made, is just as effective when put up, advertised and sold in bulk, as when doled out to patients at enormous ex­ pense by their physicians. Why not? If General Grant is getting better through a simple unauthorised vege­ table preparation where is the vaunted exclusive skill of the medical profes­ sion! Apropos of the suspension of some very prominent members bv the Med­ ical and Chirugical faculty of Maryland, for endorsing advertised remedies, the Baltimore American (April 25) says that “when a patent medicine goes on year after year widening its circle of be­ lievers. it is a pretty fair evidence that there is merit in it. The regular doc­ tors may ignore it, and expel any of their members who use it, but when they do so their action looks more like envy against a successful remedy than a true desire to protect the public.” The failure in the Garfield and Grant cases, the American thinks, and pro­ perly. has knocked professional preten­ sions higher than a Kite. But this to not a singular instance of unprofessional power over “incurable diseases." That “simple vegetable pre­ paration" now ever where known as Warner’s safe cure, was once an un­ authorized remedy; was pronounced a “godsend" to the medical profession for the cure of kidney and liver disor­ ders, malaria, general debility, spring feebleness, female irregularites, etc., by many leading physicians, but when the formula was fully perfected, and the medicine was put up tn balk and adver­ tised so that every sufferer might know of it and treat himself, then the profes­ sion turned upon it and let their patients die rather than to use it! This is certainly a strange proceed­ ing, but it is on a level with all the rules and regulations of a code which has gone so far as to forbid a physician displaying beyond a certain size his name ana profession upon his sign! But the world moves, and merit wins the fight! A CHICMEH-KEAMTeO PM*. ID«r«t Coll • :-------- — i>—tv UKIJ y off a lot of the damaged furniture.

Jurt how they are operated, and of what movable. The fixed is a sort of submarine bomb shell, made to explode under an enemy’s ship, This kind is generally called a fixed submarine mine. Of then-, again, there are two daws. The first is that which has water, at such a distance below the surface that tbe bottom of a ship passing above would graze them and explode th*sin]L Tbe other is exploded by electric wires connected with a fort or station on shore or upon another ship. It is touched off by means of “firing keys." Both are anchored under water in the channel or harbor. The tor­ pedo is an American invention, though the idea has-been improved on by other nations. In the fixed submarine mines tbe torpaio is a shell of metal containing the explosive sub­ stance, powuer or dynamite. The explosion under water of 300 pounds of powder or ita equivalent will -blow everything within 100 yards of it to flinders. Tbe fixed submarine mines are for defense.

An American, Winfield Scott Sims, has, however, perfected an invention which prom­ ises to surpass any locomotive torpedo yet known. There are objections to all tiw former onw. They are apt, for one thing, to explode in the hands of those using them. Even when sent upon their errand of de­ struction, they sometimes take a boomerang course and return and deal death to their own soldiers. Mr. Sims’ invention la said to obviate all e difficulties that arc met with to the con ruction of the others. It is seen in the icture. - venient as well as useful. They brighten up a doleful-ahadod costume when made of a different color. When tbe sleeves and wa st of a dren begin to look robbed and worn a pretty jacket of this kind may be made to cover all signs of going to pieces, and tho gown will look new. They are so simply made that anybody can cut one from the pattern of a waist lining. With bows of rib­ bon of corresponding color upon the skirt and drapery, stylish effects will he produced and the old costume made to look almost like a new one. Like everything else pertaining to present fashions, however, they fare better suited to toll, slender figures than to short, stout ones. The jackets are usually tnmm^l ah around the edge and up the back of the cuff of the deeve with tiny round gilt buttons, set so cluse together as to l<*>k like a row of brads. Thera are the mess buttorw of tbe uniforms of officer* in the British army. Tbe small garment may be rctmded off before reaching tbe waist line, and pass under tbr arms to meet the slightly pointed beck. It may go quite down to tlie waist and end in square corners, as in one of the fiton «* above.

The alterations were then print­ ed aud circulated among the reviser*, who had the advantage before the second revis­ ion bt-gan of aiiggretiuus by the American revisers. On the second revision a twothirds majority was m-o-ssary to confirm the alterations. The third revision was de­ voted to objections and points rewr-rad. As for the general result wnen tlie whole work is examined it will be found tliat the revisers have on the whole been very conservative.

The dineaae Mled them .Ji One said it was ulceration of the .thigh bone, and warned to have the poor child undergo, a terrible operation. It turned °?*i J?. ** ^ciwlic rheumatism. Poor­ child I how ahe did sutler! About four o’clock in the afternoon she would begin .^reaming with pain. She couldn’t help it. She would scream and moan till about four in the morning. Then she would full asleep from weariness, and sleep for some hours. Thia went on for eight months. During the nights neither she nor I could sleep. “ Katie was a great reader. One dav “ • P?PW’*^’ J" •d’ertlsement of Athlophoros. She asked me to get it and see if it wouldn’t cure her. We had tried a good many different things, but I thought we would try this. And I went and got a bottle. I gave her a doro of it towards evening. It was simply wonderful how it quieted the poor child’s pain* and pul her into a gentle sleep. She slept nicely until ten. Then she was in a great perspiration. She waked, and I gave her another dose, for the first one had done - her so much good. Then she fell asleep again and slept dll morning. Her pain was gone. She had hardly any returns of it. The Athlophoros did the work for her most completely. “But the terrible sciatica had drawn Katie’s leg up, and made it shorter than it had been, by several inches, bhe was lame for life, although the rheumatism was all driven outof her. She had to walk on crutches. One day she fell down stairs and was so badly hurt that she had to be taken to the hospital. There ahe suffered a great deal, and after some weeks she died. ** Father Tscheider, of the Paulist Fathers, saw much of Katie during her illness, and knows all about us. Go and ask him, and he will tell you all about it. Some time ago we gave a letter about Katie’s case, and it was published. We have had numerous inquiries in reference to it, all of which we promptly answer. “I must tell you,’’ continued Mrs. Gill, M of our neighbor, M)^. Bum mem, and her eleven-year old boy. The boy had one of the most terrible attacks of rheumatism I ever knew a boy to have. 1 had a little Athlophoros left in the bottle from which Katie had taken. I gave it to Mrs. Summers, and she gave it to the chi Id who was scream­ ing with pain. When Mr. Summers came home, he was surprised to find the boy sitting up, free from pain, and cheerfully singing. I wish you would go^and see them. They live not far from here, on West 12th street, No. 905.” Mr. Gill added in his own behalf: “ I have had a good deal of rheumatism myself, chiefly in my shoulders and arms. But I took Athlophoros and I got rid of . the trouble. I did not have to take much either. I found the medicine acted very quickly.” The Rev. Father PeterTscheider, assist­ ant pastor of tlie Churchofthe Holy Fam­ ily, was found at his pastoral residence, No. 417 West 12th street, Chicago.. . Father Tscheider took pleasure in saying that he knew Mr. and Mrs. Gill, and that he esteemed them highly; also that he; had seen Katie frequently during her illness, and knew all about her wonderful re-, covery from sciatica, and her subsequent injury and her illness at the hospital.

Mlcb. the mails M second EDITORIAL NOTES. In commenting on Senator Carveth’s tax bill the Charlotte Republican speaks as follows: The bill has been prepared with great care and skill and is by all odds the most important measure that has en­ raged the attention of the present legis­ lature, and should it become a law will reflect lasting credit upon Senator Car­ veth for the industry, legal acumen and broad business capacity he haw displayed in its preparation. As the labors of the session draw to a dose it is becoming very generally rec­ ognized that Senator Carveth is the peer of any member of the senate, if not the intellectual leader of that body. This was conspicuously manifest in the de­ bate on the minority representation bill; the bill regulating discrimination by railroads (see article elsewhere, taken from the Evening News) and now in the tax bill In this connection it should be known that Senator Carveth was not a member of the tax committee until after he had drafted his bill, and then the committee was enlarged so that he might be added and the commit­ tee given the benefit of his research and capacity. This district was very fortu­ nate when Mr. Carveth was prevailed upon to serve us in the senate. There have beenlnany political lead­ ers who have been justly renowned for ability to leatyheir parties through try­ ing situations; but we doubt if there ever lived the equal of William E. Glad­ stone, the British premier. How a man almost single-handed could meet the complications of the Russo-England dispute about the Afghan border, and successfully carry all before him is in­ deed a marvel. The protracted struggle over the election of a U. S. senator from Illinois came to a close Tuesday by the election of John A. Logan to succeed himself. The struggle has been prolonged for nearly four-mopths, and is one of the most memorable in political annals. “Black Jack" is again victorious. With all the Michigan democratic congressmen'and defeated democratic aspirants for that position in Wash­ ington logrolling and beseeching for of­ fices for their friends, democratic civil service reform professions in this state will.go for very little hereafter. The Dodge bill, limiting the charge for telephones to 82.50 per month, and that foriwing state line service to 15 cents for first five minutes and 10 cents for each subsequent five minutes, ought to pass. Telephone charges are alto­ gether too high. interesting incident of the rate war. ••Five ladiea of Chicago, wives, of prominent merchants, visited thia city yesterday,” it aaya. “Arriving in the morning, they took carriages after breakfast and were driven all over the city. At night tihey returned home, and being enabled to secure a one dol­ lar rate both to and from Chicago, they thus paid only two dollars each for about a thousand mile ride.” —In Ontario passenger trains are not started on Sunday. Recently it was attempted on the Credit Valiev, a new road, but so strong was the public feeling aroused that the company felt constrained to abolish the SundayTrain. When the Ifftminion Government di­ rected that the Welland Canal be opened during twelve hours of Sunday, sb strong was the expression of public opinion on the subject that in a few week? the order was countermanded. —A discouraged carpenter of Macon, Ga., being arraigned in the Recorder’s Court for an attempt at suicide, pleaded that he wanted to die, and as whisky would not kill him he had tried lauda­ num. He said if he was let off he M ould not try to kill himself any. more. The Recorder said that he would strip the imaginary romance of the drunk by on laudanum as well as if ho was on whisky. He fined him five dollars for getting drunk on laudanum and aL tempting to commit suicide. —A. lady sends us the following: “A beautiful.thought came from my little boy of eight years this evening. We were watching our lovely sunset, and, afterward the stars made' their appear­ ance, one by one, until there was a myriad of bright, twinkling orbs. He said: • ‘Mamma, don’t you suppose that God has bored lots of holes in the sky so that we can just see how beauful Heaven is on the other side, and don’t you guess that it is( the angels floating by them that makes them look as though they were winking?’”— Albany Times. ’ —In the past thirty years the average of man’s life has improved 6 per cent— from 41.9 to 43.9 years; and of woman’s life 8 per cent—from 41.9 to 45.2. Of every thousand males born at the pres­ ent day, twenty-four more will attain the age of 35 than need to be the case pre­ vious to 1871, and every thousand per­ sons born since 1870'will live 2,700 years longer that before. This is due to civilization, and especially to im­ proved sanitary methods, which are adding to the average of human life at the rate of nearly ten years in every xpentury.—Chicago Journcl; —“The Grange.” Alexander Hamil­ ton's old home, situated between Tenth and St. Nicholas avenues and One Hun­ dred and Thirty-eighth and One Hun-dred and Forty-fifth streets. New York, is rapidly disappearing under the pres­ sure of the march of mtxieru improve­ ments. Here is where Hamilton spent bis happiest years. Surrounded by hix wife and children, he continually en­ tertained the most distinguished guests, among whom were Talleyrand and Louis Philippe.. The estate comprised about twenty acres. One of its attrac­ tions was an isolated group of nine Urge trees, which Hamilton named the “Nine Muses.”—N. K Tribuix The latest estimates put Michigan’s wheat crop for this year at 26,000,000 bushels. Our own is the only state in which prospects for winter wheat is not reported as from 20 to 50 per cent, less than an average yield. The Oklahoma boomers have again invaded Indian Territory, and propose to stay there, they say, whether Presi­ dent Cleveland likes it or not. Wheat continues to keep well up to­ ward a dollar, even if Russia and Eng­ land refuse to fight. The national temperance league, which was formed in Boston last Janu­ Sugar By Ths Barrel Very Cheap. ary for the purpose of rescuing the tem­ perance cause from the plight into which the political prohibitionists have brought it, begins, its work in an entonraging way. The first publication kinmc ig by Rev. Dr. Dorchester, presi­ dent of the league, and the subject is “Non-partisanship in temperance ef­ fort.” Dr. Dorchester shows by facts and figures that every attempt to ad­ vance tlie temperance rfeform by third party action has resulted invariably in weakening the cause. He claims that “the third party, after sbeteen years’ ex­ istence, has never put.a temperance law on our statute books; and that the ques­ tion of advanced temperance legislation has n'v’r be’n so complicat’d, embaraased and hindered as since it has brought into the antagonism and preju­ dices of party strife by third party ac­ tion." This statement accords with the experience of every observer of the tem­ perance cause. Dr. Dorchester’s pamph­ let will be followed by documents to be written by such temperance advocates as Edward Everett Hale, J. Ellen Fos­ ter and others. By the circulation of such healthful literature from its head­ quarters at 36 Bromfield street, Boston, the national league will do more to­ wards promoting the reform it has at heart than an army of political St. Johns can accomplish.—Charlotte Re­ publican.

None but those who have had some experience in the matter know how much serious trouble and annoyance may be caused by an empty woodshed ou a farm. Especially is this the case in the busy and hurrying season, when meals are wanted promptly and help is often scarce. We question whether any­ thing connected with the domestic arrangemeuts of the farm is provocative of so much ill-temper and generidjiisoomfort as a neglected woodshed. The trying period arrives when the farmer aud his men come from the field at noon, tired and hungry, to find their dinner yet unprepared, the lire in the kitchen range almost out, the house filled with smoke and tlie house-wife and domestics cross and fretful. And whftoan wonder that they are in this frame of mind. They have perhaps ex­ pended their united strength and pa­ tience all the morning in endeavoring to coax a flame in a. stove full of green wood, but their shavings and kindlings have blazed up nnd died out again; they have kneeled before the re­ luctant pile behind the grate and blown theraxUves brcatflless, in a resolute en­ deavor to set the muss aglow, and still the long, unwieldy sticks protruding from the stove-door sizzle and fry nnd per­ sist m going out iuutter disregard of the kettles, pots and pans that are “set over” with their contents waiting to be boiled and fried for the noon-day meal. Is it any wonder that between that ex­ asperating wood and the consciousness of the fact that a hungry crowd of men and boys will soorr invade the dining­ room, and want to know why dinner is never ready when it should be, that poor, frail human nature often gives way to angry words and fault-findings P And yet such experiences as these are but too common in homes that are oth­ erwise well ordered. The ever empty woodshed is the skeleton in the family, the provoker of strife, the disturber of domestic peace. And who is responsi ble for this condition of things? Who but those who have the manage­ ment of out-door affairs. What does it argue but a luck of the most or­ dinary prudence and fore^ght that no provision is made for what in our cli­ mate and with our modes of living, is a most essential part of household econ­ omy. Every farmer realizes this im­ portance when, as in such cases as we nave mentioned, be comes home at noon in harvest-time -while, perhaps, there is a threatening storm cloud in the west, and finds his dinner not forth­ coming. And yet such dear experuences often fail to teach the heeded lesson. He heaps the blame upon the poor, over-worked housewife and her hired help, and does not seem to real­ ize that the fault all lies with himself, in his neglect to lay in store at the proper season a generous supply of prepared fuel. He makes ample pro­ vision for his horses and cuttie, his crops of hay and grain are safely stored away, bin fruit and vegetables ore gathered in at the proper time and piled in the cellar, but the woodshed' standg, through all in utter emptiness; in emptiness except, perhaps, of a pile of knurls, the accumulotion of years, whowK flinty surfaces resist all attempts to reduce them to a manage­ able size. even when these attempts are made- under the spur of urgent and dire necessity. But a delay of meals in harvest time, and all the ill-temper and exasperation of such occasions are not the only troubles that arise from an empty woodshed. The miseries it brings upon the member^.of a house­ hold are never mori>apparent than in the dreary days ana long evenings of the winter-time, when the cold winds are howling without and driving in the frost through .every sill nnd casement. Then t he rnyxsure of discomfort is filled when the wood refuses to burn, and the; fire goes out in spite of all induce­ ments, and the children shiver and ciy with the cold and everybody feels very blue and miserable. The wood will nj>X burn because it was filled with ice ufd water. The woodshed is empty, aim the house is empty, too, of all home­ like cheer and gladness. O, the long train of petty trials and vexations, the domestic jars and crea­ ture discomforts conjured up by that Shrase an empty woodshed. Who can tly describe them all? Who shall tell of the- hard, thankless lives of .wives and mothers,that would have been much brighter and more happy if thorp had been in ttys one respect a little more consideration for their welfare, a little eil- A here of lightening th«- biirdens this h-itl to bear. With most farmers the winter season offers the mod favorable opportunity for cutting and hauling wood to the farm-house. Transportation from the woods and over the fields U easier then, aud men and toatns are at IS/itre. It s a matter that no thrifty and provi­ dent man will leave out of Hib calcula­ he tions for the season, any moiu than ' would think of entering upon] the winter without hay and grain for his live itock.—AT.

Any good, smooth lumber that wan well iteaaoned, would lie still, and which would admit of tack* being driven in and pulled out twice a year was all that was required. Now the description of the parquetries, borders, and inlays, the matching, the woods, the grain, the texture, the provision for rugs and hearths and registers, make the planning and description of the floors an important and sometimes a complicated affair. The demand foi Barjtets still continues, but there is un­ doubtedly an increased iim for floors that ms intended to be used wholly or partly uncovered. This is partly owing to the caprice of fashion, which at Eresent inclines toward ruga, and partr to a conviction that bare, cleat. EUROPEAN CAVALRY. this Is of the best quality it u verv sat­ isfactory and not expensive. The poor­ er kind are liable to splinter, which is a serious fault Maple, birch and cherry are admirable for this uurposc on account of their fine, smooth, firm grain, and the readiness with which they take on a hard polish'd surface. Quartered white oak w. irreproachable, it is needless to say that for a perfect floor —that is a smooth, bard and un­ broken surface—it is indispensable that the material should be perfectly sea­ soned and also that the narrower the separate piece* are the leas it w.ll be affected by atmospher e changes; the less liable will it be to develop cracks and wrinkles as it grow* old. It is also very important the lining floor to which it is naled should be of well*eaaoned and reliable stock. A poor foundation ruins jvhatever is laid upon it, and the fined hard wood floor in the world fastened to an unseasoned layer of course spruce or hemlock boards will no more, keep in place permanently than a brick wall would stand upon a foundation of logs. Even if the lining floor is sea­ soned when laid, it is liable, especially if the boards are wide, to be swollen by the damp weather in summer and shrunk by the steam heat in winter, and each board will carry the separate • pieces of the finished floor lying upon it. It is a ven' common thing to see these wide cracks in the upper floor oc­ curring at regular intervals and indi­ cating the width of the boards below. When the upper floor consists of nar­ row wid/hs running parallel to the lin­ ing. that is at right angle.* to-the joists, the trouble arising from the shrinking and swelling of the under floor can be obviated by laying them diagonally. As it is so common to cover the central part of the floor wit h a rug of some sort there is no rcasoh why this should be made omuinental; plain, mtrrow strips of any smooth ban! wood being all that is required. Around the edges, where the floor is supposed to Im? seen, a more or less ornamen tai bonier is appropriate, but as a rule the lew ornament the bet­ ter, or rather the less elaborate. The manufactured fancy wood floors are. as a rule, too complicated to be agreeable. They suggest puzzles and a sort of in­ tricate but inartistic moAaic tliat is, to s»y the least, misapplied in such-a posi­ tion and of such materials.

BONNETS. A FjiMhfon Authority On the Latest Ktylee In Ladle** HeiMigrar. Among the military nation* of the continent it U recogniacd that -o far from the time for the effiosc on* employment of cavalry either on, the hattle-flcld or Id enterprise* against the flanks or rear of an enemy be. ing post, a glorious future is dawn­ ing for that arm, and that oppor­ tunities will arise when well-disci­ plined, well-trained, apd well-com­ manded cavalry may. through its power of securing for itself compara­ tive immunity from tlie dangers to which other "arms are in a higher ratio exposed, take a leading part in the.conflict, and perhaps decide the fate of n campaign. Among other high authorities, Field Marshal Coan' Moltke has recorded his opfaion that because in future the destructive fire of artillery will necessitate a scat­ tered formation, the role of cavalry, will be most important. Greater skill will no doubt be required in handling it so a* to bring it Into ac tion decisively at the critical moment cito parare vicloriam, for only b rapidity in maneuvering can the ef­ fect of the breechloader be paralysed. History proves that without eavalry a victory is rarely brilliant. If cavalry is beaten, according to Montecticnli, the battle is entirely lost; if, on the other hand, it is victorious, the victory is com­ plete. From the day when Hftsdnibal de­ stroyed the Roman host at Can me un­ til that on which, two thousand yeijw afterwani. the British mpiniirons, charging the flanks of the old guard at Waterloo, “prevented all rallying” af­ ter the annihilation of the Frenfch cav­ alry, this axiom has been true. In the last great ■ war cavalry, on both' sides were on several occasions nobly sacri­ ficed In order to gain time for the In­ fantry, or in heroic effort to avert «lisasters already inseparable, but neither in the “death rides" of Worth or R»jonvilfe, or in the terrible slaughter of aednu, were the lossc- as heavy as those incurred by cavalry in the days of muzzle-loaders. That the effect of • he fire of modern weapons, retniiring os they do in their' use considerable skill and a correct judgment of dis­ tance would, be very destructive to to cavLlvy moving rapidly outside the line of 400 yards remains to be proved. In a trial which lately took place in In­ dia between thns* Gardner guns and a detachment of sixty picked shots filo? firing at six stationary targeta ^t tM varus, the distance being unknown, the latter made only twenty-four* bits out of 411 rounds, and at 890 yards roller­ firing. the distance being known, only thirty-six hits out of 630 rounds. The Gardner guus were even le»s • success-; fill, a result highly cncqurngihg to cav-j al ry.—Fortni/fktlu Rente*' During.the vear of I8H3 there'were 10.568 failures In business in the United States and Canada. Some of these were big concerns, and some very small. Failure is sorrowful business to any man, especially if it is his health that fails.

A monarchical, a one man gov­ ernment,’ is no more destructive to the best interest of the people, than a gov­ ernment by the people without suflicient central power to meet any and all emergencies. Our forefathers had seen and felt the wrong of a monarchical government, and so they determined to make u gov­ ernment for and by the .people; and to be to all as free as possible, and guard­ ed it in many ways, among which was the reserving of many rights th the stales. Alexander Hamilton and his followers wantoy a more central power than is given by the present constitu­ tion. Thomas Jefferson, above .every thing else, dreaded anything like cen­ tral power. He and his followers pre­ vailed, so that the central power of the Government, in case ol an emergency, i very limited and not very well de­ fined; out of whleh grew the doctrine of state rights, which was fostered by a slave aristocracy, abetted by the demo­ cratic party, and finally led to the late rebellion and all of its attachments. Great as Mr. Jefferson and the demo­ crat party have been, time and experi­ ence nas proved that Mr. Hamilton and the republican party have been right upon this question. No one now dis? putes the right arid the power of the government tq defend itself from “foes within as well as from without, to coerce. It ne6ds the signature of both parties to close a contract.’ When ihe rebels surrendered, the rebellion was ended; but the questions at issue, during and since tlie rebellion, have never been ad­ mitted, by the democratic party, to be finally settled; it has wanted the signa­ ture of this party to the contract, which will now be given by Grover Cleveland's administration, accepting these ques­ tions and treating them as absolutely settled. The world moves slowly, and so does the democratic party. Good men, who are in advance of the age in which they live, are often abused, but in after years their light, their rec­ ord grows brighter and they .finally receive that which is due to them, the approbation of the people; as it lias been and now is with Abraham Lin­ coln. So it is, and will be, with the re­ publican party. It has cost a man something more than political buncome and clap-trap to be a black repub­ lican, but it is worth more now than it has coati for It is the pride and the rlory of a man to know and fed that he has been right.

The Grand Rapids papers of May 22d, contained an account of a meeting of Grand Rapids business men to protest against the passage of the Shoemaker railroad bill by the Michigan legislature. The Shoemaker bill is designed to afford relief to cities and towns that have not railroad competition. It is universally acknowledged ’ that if it passes it will give such relief. It is be­ cause it is of that character that Grand ■ Rapids* rich tradesmen and manufac­ turers kick. They want Grand Rapids to continue to have a monopoly of eheap freights. For the past fifteen years Hastings shippers have been compelled to pay from 30 to 40' per cent, more for freights from Detroit, Jackson and Charlotte than Grand Rapids shippers from the same points, though Grand Rapids is 32 miles farther away. Hastings is at an eqpal disadvantage as compared with Grand Rapids in shipping freight to those places. In other words, Hastings. Middleville, Caledonia, Nashville, Ver­ montville and othfg towns along our line of road have been paying the Mich­ igan Central very high rates of freight, in order teat that company might carry­ freight from Grand Rapids at very low rates. This is all very nice for Grand Rapids, but it plays thed------ 1 with bus­ iness at Hastings. The same practice prevails' on all roads in the state. Freight is carried at very near some­ times below, cost at competing points, and teen non-competing points pay way al>ove their equitable proportions in orden that the road can show profit . This is unfair, unjust, and nothing less than robbing one community to build up another. The Shoemaker bill will compel rail­ road^ to charge no more for a short haul than a longer one through the same place. Thus: Grand Rapids gets a 25 cent rate over the M. C. R. R. from Detroit on a certain class of goods. For transporting the same goods from Detroit to Hastings 35 cents is the charge. Hastings is 32- miles nearer Detroit than Grand Rapids. If the Shoemaker bill passes, Hastings trades­ men will be charged no more than Grand Rapids. This is fair and right. It gives neither place the advantage, and neither ought to have, when the same common carrier serves both cominanities. We could multiply Instances without number showing how the M. C. It R. discriminates against this city, and other towns along this line. It is time that such extortion should cease. It musf be stopped, or some more radical measure than the Shoemaker bill wil) passed. But when such a bill will ac­ commodate, as it will, nine-tenths of the people of Michigan, the protests of Grand Rapids* business men and De­ troit boards of wheat gamblers ought not to outweigh the desire of the major­ ity. _____________ TO FARMERS!' die the most ignorant people, particu­ larly those who spend the most of their time in whittling dry goods boxes, and ip aiding to create a prejudice between capital and labor; and famous for noth­ ing except for being for one thing to­ day and for another tiling to-morrow, a cheap currency, and the unenviable idea of paying the obligations of the gov­ ernment, contracted in good faith, with irredeemable greenbacks, or at most in greenbacks which are in themselves a certificate of indebtedness, by calling them the people’s money. It was under these circumstances that in 1876 a republican township com­ mittee in its call for a caucus, added, to it these words, which seem to be imusually prophetic at this time: “Repub­ licans, do not be deceived by the clap­ trap of the greenback party; its argu­ ments consist more in assertions than in facte. A nation to be respected must pay its obligations in something real, something tangible, and not in mere promises to pay. The greenback parh' is already divided; it will be short lived, and at its death there will be no mourners; it will be swallowed up in the great democratic maw. Greenback men should emigrate to a more genial climate, to the land of wampun where every man can make his own cur­ rency and not be molested.” "I would not live always, no I ask not to stay. W here foul opposition. rise* dark o’er the way. The few lurid mornings. that dawn on us here, Are enough of life’s woes, full enough for its cheer.’’ All of which is very applicable to this party just now, although written nine years ago. • Some of the greenback men, seeing that the end of tee party is at hand, are now trying to comfort them­ selves by saying that “the little green­ back party has done a good deal of good anyhow, and we have not got what we wanted,-’ which brings to mind the backwoods man, who had seen but lit­ tle of the world and knew less of its ex­ perience, who upon going to mill a horseback, instead of lending a helping hand, jumped astride of the‘horse, and then to lighten the burden for the horse put the grist upon his own shoulders; and then upon arriving at the mill, patted the horse and said to him in a very knowing manner, "we did it, didn’t we? We nave got what we .wanted." The horse is the republican party which has done the milling in spite of the greenback party, which is the back­ woods man and his load. Surely there is much of bliss in ignorance, and much of human fraility in cheek. r. Hastings Markets. Wheat, white. Wheat, red... Beans Potatoes Apple* per bo*..,...

We vdhted the thriving yule of Woodland Thursday of last week, and found the “Center" taking on new life. A 85.000 school house will be erected this season. The frame is up for a fine brick skating rink. Several dwellings have been built already this year, and more will be. 'The business interests of the place are in tbe bauds of intelligent, irogresaive young men. and prosperity s a matter of course. Prospects for the immediate future are bright. The out­ look for wheat and oats could not be better in the adjacent country. Grass is simply Immense, and there is promise of plenty of corn in the land. .So we founo the business men of Woodland talking hopefully. Most of them know the value of advertising in the Banner, which has the largest circulation in that township of any outside of Hast­ ings in tho county. Among those who this week talk to the public through the Banner are: C. A. Bough, who has lately taken a new departure, and who has a complete line of agricultural implements for sale. Chris is one of the “get there" boys, and has a splendid trade. Miss Parks and Mrs. Stanley, who have opened a tine stock of millinery goods at the Center, talk to the good people of Woodland as to the in­ ducements they can offer. They de­ serve a liberal patronage. Jolly Mike Reiser, who has also branched out In the agricultural imple­ ment business. He has the agency of several ursUclass machines, and talks business to Banner readers. He re­ ports good sales, and expects a large in­ crease in trade as the season advances. Our readers in Woodland and vicini­ ty are invited to peruse these ads. AN IMMENSE STOCK -^OF^r- New Millinery Goods AND DRY GOODS, Just Opening, at Russell’s! Everybody Invited, to Call and See Us.

Deming, N. M.. June 1.-'Nine of Gero­ nimo’s band of Indians succeeded in cross­ ing into Mexico. A band of twentytivc of them crossed the South­ ern Pacific track ninety-five miles west of Uds place Saturday, hearting for Mexico. They followed the old trail over which the Indians have passed on their ' raids Into Mexico for years. The soldiers were camped about seven miles from the trail for several days, notwithstanding they k ew the Indiaus would travel on the old trail to reach Mexico. They could have killed or captured the entire baud. For the present the raid may be considered over on this side of the bonier. The two bands of Indians will prolmbly meet at Casa Grande. The ireports that the Navajo* and Misca1 eras |are on the war-path are unfounded. THE CANADIAN TKOCBLKB. Winnipeg, Manitoba, May 2A—Chief PiKHidmakcr surrendered himself Tuesday. EarlyTii the uiurnmt a train of ten wag­ . tins. aceompanled by one hundred and fifty Indians drove into Battleford. A messen­ ger brought word to General Midilletou that Puundmaker hiid come in with ins braves to surrender, and in a few minutes Poundimiker himself appeared and drove up to the barracks at the head of the train. The Indian Chief asked for a pow-wow with Middleton, and the conterence that ensued lasted for four hours. ’ Pouudmakjer said that lie and- the other In­ dian chiefs had not intended to rebel until ' incited.to do so by Kiel. They captured the supply train, hu said, only because i they were in urgent need of food, and the;, would not have fought' If Colonel Otter had not stolen up in the night and surprised them. When Middleton askedwhu had killed Payne and Fremont, the farm Instructors, two of the braved advanced, and. kneeling at his feet, acknowledged that they had murdered the men and begged for mercy. General Mid­ dleton ordered Poundmaker, BreakThrough-the-Ice, Yellow Medal, Blanket and the two murderers to be placed in close confinement and sent the remainder - of tlie Indians to their reserves. Five half-breeds who were with the . train were also put into prison for partici­ pating in the fight at Cut Knife Creek. Foundmaker promised that the remainder of his tribe would come Into Battleford to­ . day. and bring with them what is left of the captured supply train. Many of the younger of Potmdmakvr’s Iravea have lied into Mon­ tana or gone to join Big Bear. Tliat chief Is how said to be encamped only thirty miles from Battleford. . Lieutenant-Governor Dewdney, In an in-lervlew, said: "I rexard Poundmaker as a clever.

But for ColoneHntcr’s preaenco Poundtunkcr would have united with Big Bear, and a powerful foe would have confronted ua.” BATTiJcroiO). N. W. T., June 1.—Two men. who were met in a small row-boat by tlie steamer North*'eat while on her way to Fort Pitt with troops and supplies state that General Strange 1ind an engagement with a large force of Indians on the 2Mtii ulL, and tliat three of his troops—two pri­ vates and a cavalryman—were wounded. It appears tliat on tlie day preceding the light a number of General Strange's tow while tout scouting shot and killed an Indian, and In following up his footsteps dlxuvcred an encampment of In­ dians, supposed to be Big Bear’s braves, pitched on tlie crest of the hill. The In­ dian jxw I on.which was thirteen miles cast of Fort Pitt and throe miles from the river, was strengtlfened by a niorase which ex­ tended along tlie front of the hill and ren­ dered a flank movement Impossible. F-ariy the next morning Gen­ eral Strange advanced with about three hundred men, made up of portions of the Sixty-fifth and Ninety-first battalions, and tlie mounted police, sup­ plied by one gun, and reached the Indian position about noon.

It is whether whole inllk or cream alone should bo churned. As in most things, tho truth lies between the two extremes. When the milk heavy,'it will do to churn the wbolu milk. Thick heavy creym churned alone does not produce so good butter os when Nome of tiie milk is added. The butter is not so bright end dear, but is apt to have a greasy, shiny look. On thi/otber hand, if the cream i» thin and produced from a great quantity of. milk then akim it off and churn alone. No gallon or so of water. When only a few cows are kept tbe cream jar should be stirred to make the butter ooma quickly and La of' a bright yellow color. Butter from cows long in milk ootdm very slowly in winter. nXD FOR MILK C0W8. In August and early September in our country there comes a tim? of drouth whan the pasture* an< parched brown. During three hot weeks the cows fall off in their milk ftixl get thin. To provide against this a few acre* of sweet corn should Iw sown broadcast to come in for fodder during the drouth, it will- richly repay tbe labor. An old saw aayu: "Feed your ttodT and the xtoqk will food the land.” Fertilise the po*turyw, in addition, with thin top drresiug be­ fore the graai starts. You will find the milk inqreaaing in richneus as the pasture is en­ riched. Again, "June butter” hah the cboiceat flavor of nil. Tbe smell of the gnus seems to hover about its golden richncBH. Therefore, have’your bay a* near the quality of June grw® as possible. One model dairyman cuts hb hay in early June and gets it into tiie barn free from rain. Then be gets another crop lbs some season. In the channel islands, whence the famous butter cows come, their feed for many gene­ rations has bren root crops largely. A cruft of carrots should be raised, to give butter ita golden yellow color in winter. But oUierwiw it is a question whether root feed is so tar superior to American corn as to be vuInti­ tuled for it a? food- Our corn wi/l uot grow iu Europe, or doubUres they wodld have it over there last enough. Tbe great uukuu! of work required in producing' root aropa would be an objection to them in this coun­ try, where labor is so high.

One week from next Sabbath will be observed as Children’s day by the M. E. church. The exercises on last Sabbath at the Tamarack U. B. church (Children’s day) were very fine. J. W. Holmes will take a trip to Tennesee for his health. Woodland will celebrate the 4th, so determined a meeting called for the purpose of deciding the question. Every body is expected to consider themselves specially invited to come and have a big time. A dog belonging to Rube Crowell at the village was on Thursday seized with hydrophobia and was with some difficulty killed. It is not known of any damage being done by the dog, ex­ cept having fought with several other dogs. Were it not for the annoyance to the dogs of Woodland we would ven­ ture to suggest that they be muzzled; but fearing we might be thought med­ dlesome and heartless, we let the sub­ ject alone and thus avoidjtrouble. C. Burkley is raising his barn and re­ modeling is into a bank barn. Rev. J. F. Orwick and family paid Woodland a visit last week. O. E. Wightman now drives a span of colts. The meeting of the building commit­ tee to select a furnace for the new school building will be held June 15th at one o’clock p. m. W. P.

The Workingmen’s Concert troupe showed to akSiB audience Monday CARLTON. The farmers are lamenting over the heavy rain that has fallen, for fear It will be impossible for them to till their corn. There are a great many new barns being built through Carlton this sum­ mer in spite of the hard times. The farmers are determined to keep business moving. Our day school at the Centre seems to be progressing finely. We learn that the teacher makes the little folks hunt up a piece to read or learn one to speak every two weeks, which we think is very necessary in district schools and has been largely neglected. Al. Trout wine an’d wife, of Hastings, spent last Sabbath with friends in Carl­ ton: We learn that Mr. Barnum in east Carlton, contemplates building a nice residence this season. It will certainly be a great improvement to his farm. George Eisenhood is failing quite fast.

Post's 93d birthday party are that she was feeling unusally well. There were four sons and one daughter, fourteen grand-child­ ren, twelve great grand-children, one niece and four nephews, ten great nieces and nephews, and one great great niece, and now add the relatives by marriage it makes seventy-three. She marched around by the beating of the drum and took a few steps to the time of a violin. A bountiful dinner was served in ’which everybody did arnnle justice. There was dancing on the lawn, some beautiful pieces sung and euchre play­ ing. Everybody went away feeling . well pleased.. If there were more such as she the world would be none the worse for it. We must add that she is blessed with one of the kindest of hus­ bands in the world. Sherm Potter and Katie Cross, of Vermontville, visited at D. Slade’s last Sunday.

The Journal attempts to be a trifle fa­ cetious at our expense. It argues that because we urge the passage of the Shoemaker bill, we ought to favor free trade. There Is no logical connection between theee two matters, but the Journal editor pretends there is. Some time ago the Journal wanted the prin­ ters of this city and their friends to boycott those business men who had their printing done elsewhere than in this city. It argued that the way to build up this city was to patronise home concerns. We might better argue from this that the Journal ought to ad­ vocate a protective tariff large enough to compel people to buy at home. The talk that protection builds up monopo­ lies is nonsense. There is no'protected interest in the country in which any man or company of men is prohibited , from engaging. Protection does not say to Mr. A. “You can make steel rails but Mr. B. cannot.” It allows all who wish to engage in this or any other protected industry, and competition fixes the price. To be sure manufactur­ ers in this country combine to keep up prices. So do manufacturers in free trade England. In fact there is a com­ bination of iron and steel manufactur­ ers that takes in all but two or three concerns in. Europe. There would l»e combinations just the same whether whatever turned over to Quartermas­ ter General Shakespeare to tee used «• he saw fit, insteadjof turning the money over to the state‘treasurer. Shakes­ peare used this money to' buy cloth and other articles for the state troops, pay­ ing a Kalamazoo dealer a fabulous price for the goods, which were not needed at all. No bids were asked for. The whole order was given to this Kal­ amazoo firm, who charged such prices as they pleased. The same goods other firms have declared their willingness to duplicate at greatly reduced figures from those paid by Shakeepeare. forCMh. Dr. R. E. James, of Kalamazoo, who Is bo well known to many of the citizens of this village and country, is meeting with such wonderful success in the sale of books, bibles, and albums, that he has concluded to open a sale here on Jefferson street, in the block nearly op­ posite the postoffice, lately occupied by Newton’s harness shop. His prices are so remarkably low that the question on all sides is getting to be, “Where does he get the goods?” “How can he sell so low?” As far as we have learned, the secret remains unsolved, and all the replythe doctor gives to the inquiriee is, “These goods are for sale every day and evening, for a short time only, for less than the binding coat Come and see.” The doctor has done business ithis village several times before this; we learn that some of his best custom­ ers are among those who know him best. Anyone knows there is one chance in a life time to get books, bibles, and large sized, photograph albums at such prices. Lar,a family bibles, and a specialty of Gaskell's Compendium of Forms, Hill’s Manual, and The World, Historical and ActuaL Two of the most wonderful works in the English language will be made a specialty. Such chances were never dreamed of before. It is said that a certain farmer liv­ ing near this city has, so to speak, “lock­ ed horns” with the Dayton Hedge Co. in the matter of allowing stock to run at large. As the Company will doubt­ less be under the necessity of prosecut­ ing at least one such offender in this county in order to settle the question, without doubt the gauntlet thrown down by this fanner will be picked up at once by them, and a test case brought into the courts. As the Banner under­ stands the law, it is only by sufferance that cattle are allowed to run at large in the southern counties of the state. ' Senator Hawley’s two bills—S. file No. 224, to regulate the holding of cau­ cuses, and S. file No. 225, to regulate ttye counting of votes at elections—are worthy of special attention. The first, to govern caucuses seeks to correct various abuses common especially in cities. The second, to regulate the counting of votes at election, is of more general importance. It provides that in the cities of this state there shall l>e two ballot-boxes in all precincts where there are over 300 votes, and two addit­ ional clerks of election. One ballot-box shap be used to receive ballots until 12 o’clock noon, when it shall be with­ drawn, and)the other used to receive ballots. Two inspectors and two clerks shall then begin to canvass tbe votes; and the boxes shall be changed each hour, the canvass proceeding concur­ rently with the voting. If this bill should be amended so as to include' all precincts, country and city alike, where there are more than 100 votes, it would constitute a great reform, enabling the press and public to secure quick official returns and greatly lessening the oppor­ tunities for committing fraud and the temptations thereto. / U/OOL CARDING Soek Yarn!

Further, without exception the Grand Army boys who listened to the sermon in question with whom we have talked on this subject, say they understood the speaker to use the lan­ guage attributed to him by our corres­ pondent. It is possible they are mistak­ en, but it is more probable that the reverend gentleman did not express his thought just as he intended. The Ban­ ner does not for a moment suppose that Rev.

Died, in this village Monday, June 1st, at the home of his father, William Mor­ gan Watkins, aged 29 years, 5 months and 21 days, eldest son of Richard and Adeliah Watkins. William Morgan Watkins was born In Rutland, Ver­ mont. With his parents he moved to Michigan, and in the spring of 1870 he entered the Middleville Plaindeider office as “devil.” The following six years were spent in school and at the “case," working in Hastings, Plainwell and Middleville. In June 1876, in company with M. F. Jordan, he purchased the Plaiudealer of P. W. Niskern. Messrs. Jordan and Watkins soon lifter changed the mime to Barry County Republican, the publi­ cation of which they continued nntil March 1878, when Mr. Watkins sold his interest to Mr. Jordan. In the following May he, in company with P. W. •Niaxern, established the Hastings Sentinel, .which they publish­ ed until October 1879, when Mr. Wat­ kins sold his interest in the Sentinel, and returned to Middleville and pur­ chased the Republican, publishing that Sitil April 1888, when his health him, in company with W’. E. and R. T. French he went to Colorado in hopes of regaining his lost health. Not improving in tbe west he came home in June. In July he went to Harbor Springs where he held the position of telegraph editor during the season, on the Daily Reporter, Repre­ sentative Hampton's paper. After clos­ ing his labors at Harbor Springs he took a position as foreman of the Petos­ key Democrat, remaining there until September last, whan he returned to his father’s and has been confined ‘ to the house nearly all the time since. As a compositor at tiie •‘case’’ Mr. Watkins had few equals, and in even­ department of the business he was a* complete roaster of “art preservative of arta.” His untimely death is mourn­ ed by a host of friends, - especially the young with whom he was a great favotite. He leaves a wife and infant daughter to mourn tbe lass of a hus­ band and father. The funeral was held at the Congregational church Wed­ nesday morning. The desk, rostrum and coffin were handsomely decorated with flowers of which the decease was great lover. Rev. Bugbey choose as a wubect the words: “God is not the God of the dead, but of the living,” from Matt. 22-32. Barry County Teachers’ Association The third session of the Teachers’ Association of Barry county will be held at Hastings Friday evening and Saturday, June 12 and 18. The fol­ lowing is the program; FRIDAY EVENING. Whxt shall be Taught in tbe Schools? Lecture by Judge Smith SATURDAY. Tho Art of Securing Attention, - W. A. Morse Text-books and their Uses, G. W. Barden Technical Grammar, - Eugene Davenport Tbe Schoolboy and the Ballot, - Helen BL Bell Methods of Teaching. - John Klingensmith Some thought* on a Neglected Subjoct,C.H.Cole The lecture will be delivered in the Presbyterian church. As will be seen, the subject is of vital importance. No one should fail to hear Judge Smith on this occasion. i Tho topics on the program for Sat­ urday will be presented in the formfof pqpers and discussions, and it is to be hoped that every teacher will come, prepared to put the best into the sub­ jects and to get the most out of them. Another reason why every teacher should be present at this meeting of the Association is, that there will be formed a County Reading Circle, as a branch of the/Btate Circle. Several states already have these Circles, In­ diana having an active membership of three thousand. Twelve or fifteen counties in Michigan have organized, and It will soon be extended over tbe entire state. The purpose is “to assist teachers in the work of self-improve­ ment.” The purp6aes and methods will be explained in detail at the meeting. No- Jjve teacher can afford to be absent from this meeting. The organization in Barry county, as form­ ed under tbe State Council, is as fol­ lows: C. H. Cole-, President; W. L Marble, Secretary; Geo. W. Barden, Treasurer; WjLMorse,Enoch Andrus. Kate Williams, Sec’y. Washington. D. C.—The son of Sen­ ator Frye, of Maine, who has been suf­ fering from a severe cold, which settled on his chest, was cured by a few dosre of Red Star Cough Core.

One afternoon, just after the terrible disaster at Cold Harbor, his abstracted ramble led him along the canal that .tins parallel with the Poto mac, south of the White House. Wan dering a couple of miles in this aimleua way, Lincoln came to a smoky little cabin, at tbe door of which an old colored man wa* paring potatoes. The “good president” stopped, and, taking it fcr granted that be would be unknown to this bumble contra­ band, sat down and engaged him in conver­ sation. With that patriarchal reidinwu ol opinion peculiar to aged darkies, the latter delivered many oracular dissertations on public affairs, tbe conduct of tho war, tbe duties of tbo executive and national affairs generally. Tbe president listened—not with­ out gaining an idea or two from the homely discourse—until it was quite dark. As lu he was about to return tbe old man set before him a bowl of milk and some boe cake, which Lincoln—who told the story himself—ata with a relish, tbo first food be bad enjoyec for many a day. “Dona do bo, Maim Linkum, done do •©,’ dd tbe old man, hospitably. “You know me, theuF anked the preal Ole Abe de berry minute I sot eyes on yer.

Since selecting this subject, I have met many who nave taken the opportu­ nity to joke me, somasaying that it is a quietion not Worth the time to answer. Some that the lAwxoLthe state specify what shall be taught. Some that it is presumptions in me to make sugges­ tions to an organized body holding oertificatee from the examiners of their several localities entitling them to teach those whom we send to them, and that however much we may suggest, the duty of the teacher is co instruct only in those studies about which he or she has been examined, and for which they hold certificates, provided appli­ cants present themselves for the same. VVbile 1 shall not take issue with our wise law makers as to the text books to be used in the schools, in the brief time in which h shall occupy your attention, I shall endeavor, as plainly as I can, to givp you some thoughts which may aid you in your duties. Nor do I expect to £resent to you something of which you ave never thought, but I hope to en­ courage and strengthen you in your work by presenting to you ideas which I feel will be in sympathy with your own, and by so doing give to you the innate consciousness that the public are with you in your laudable efforts. To know that others are with you in you? thoughts, builds and bouys you up to more forceful effort. The subject is not without interest. In this commonwealth the public are called upon to support the schools. The schools are as free as the air. No mat­ ter how many hardships we have to en­ counter the school room door is open to all alike. The man who owns property worth thousands of dollars, although he may be childless, yet of his substance he must pay for the support- of these institutions. Itds a wise provision of the law. It is for the public good, and when so many thousands of dollars are expended it is right and proper that the fiunUc who pay should have a voice in to distribution. I shall not enter into anv discussion of the right to tax the public in the dissemination of toe high­ er studies, but shall confine myself to the common school system proper, as that is what you are more particularly interested in; and I have this to say. without fear of successful contradic­ tion, that if those who attend the com­ mon schools hijve the proper in­ struction given them there, there need be no fear for the future of their intel­ lectual progress. If they are properly taught and are given the right stimu­ lus in the beginning, they will ba- sel­ dom surprised as they go through the journey of life. They will be prepared with brave hearts and with willing, helpful hands to meet the difficulties and trials which they daily encounter. Someone has said, “The true purpose of education isto cherish and unfold the seed of immortality already sown within us; to develop to their fullest extent the capacities of every kind with which the Gud who made us has en­ dowed us.” Ln a recent speech Secretary Bayard said, “Our education in all its forms is simply to end in making us higher, bet­ ter, more self snbon inate, to teach us that We are humble instruments in the advancement not of mere selfish­ ness, but of something far beyond it, the glory and welfare ot our entire country.” Another has said, “Educa­ tion commences at the mother’s knee; and every word spoken within the hear­ ing of little children tends toward the formation of diameter.” . ** Tta education forms the common mind. Just us the twig Is best the tree’s itwUned.*’ If this be so, and who. can doubt it, what a responsibility rests upon yqiy in your work us teachers. I have always felt that the teachers of the primary grade, or school, has much more respon­ sibility resting on them (has those of a higher grade. . They take a child from the start. .^Thev place i n his mind much that will follow him through life, and although I would not for a moment have you Chink 1 hold the teachers of our schools reeponsible for the wonderful activity in meanness that some scholars develop, yet I cannot help but say tout very much of the future of our boys and girls depends-on the early training they recieve in the public school. There is • to-day, in our schools, as there ever has been, much good and evil taught, and it is not found in the text books dither. I tell you' plainly that every parent who loves his children, trembles when for the first time he sends them from the home to the public school, and the feel­ ing is not confined to the cities and towns, but exists in the country as well. He knows that in all probability they will gain a kind of knowledge on the play ground, on their way to and from the school, which will not benefit them, and unless their instruction at home and in the school-room proper is of the highest order, while they may, learn much, that in tfie future, will be: useful to them yet they will learn much that in the yeans to come will curse them in distorted mind and in impovished body. I recollect quite well when it was not a debatable question as to how far the teacher’s care extended, but it was set­ tled—by the scholars, at least—that to and from the school room the teacher had no right to govern. The . class of pupils who were bad took advantage of this state of things to wreak their ven­ geance upon the weak. To say and do things that during toe hours from 9 a. in. 'til 4 p. m., they desisted from doing simply for ftar of the punishment which might follow. Happily this is now done away with, and it is understood that the teacher’s care extends beyond the confines of the school room and * the proper boon of school. It aomeCitnes ppens that the careful some germ which the parent ‘VfX' would can your atteni-----------tance of your work, and swond to'the fact that there should be a perfect un­ derstanding between the teacher and the parent. /That while it would not be advisable or wise for a teacher to tell the shortcomings ot Brown's children to Jones, yet it is entirely proper, for the teacher to tell to Jones the short comings of his (Jones) children, and that the teacher should, be as free to go to him to tell him what is for the inter­ est of himself and family, as for Jones to go the school house with his requests. In other words there shouldvbe an en­ tire confidence between the teacher and parent, and no hesitation on the part of either to call the attention of the other to anything either should know to help them along with the work in hand. The object of education in the main is to fit on? for the practical duties of life. Generally speaking we would say, the first in importance in obtaining an education is learning to read, and in fact this is true, but there are many men and women very well informed in many matters, who cannot read a word. They learn from exper­ ience and by observation. They can think without the art" of reading. Many times they do what is very proper and wise to do because they are thoughtful. How many of us have seen the littie ones of our household, long before they could read say many wise things and do many meritorious acts. It is their mind which without the aid of reading expands by experience and observation. Equally true it is that many who can read have no profit therefrom. They do not think, and if they improve the faculty of reading they read bad books, or they read books not really bad, but having no merit •Jlowever it is of practical benefit that a child learns to read, but in con­ nection with the same, not only the mere act of reading should be taught, but the uses of it. What is to be gain­ ed by it The advantages to be had by careful, choice reading. The habit of thought and observation in connection therewith. The child should be taught to read carefully. A proper under­ standing of the subject about which one is reading, will very generally ena­ ble the reader to impart to the hearer a correct idea of the same, consequently the old way of instructing the child to read was pernicious. To learn to read by giving the rising inflection here, the falling inflection elsewhere, to pause here, and read in monotone this part, to emphasize this word and slur this part of a sentence, without any reason or in other words to read by rule, is in my opinion very much out of place. 1 do not wish to be understood as saying that these matters should not receive attention, but they should be subordinate to the main idea, that is to think about the work in hand. What it means. The lessens to be learned from the subject read about. It de­ stroys all,the comfort to be taken from reading in the years to come, for in the main I say no one who does not read for the benefit to be derived from it receives any advantage, and to read to pass away time is worse than not to read at all. Therefore I say that it is the teacher’s duty in the outset, as the great key to all future progress, by the books, is given the child, to instruct fully as to the benefits and advantages to be derived therefrom by a careful, cautious selection of reading matter and to give the note of warning to those who read in the indiscriminate manner in which so many of our people do. This principle of learning to think, to reflect at the outset will by and by be to th^student what the solid bank ac­ count is to the business man in his bus­ iness. I speak to you from experience, and I say franklv, that while I find no fault with my early instructors, I' would rather my children should never learn to read than to learn in the manner in which reading was taught thirty years ago. I do not call to mind a single article read in the school-room in the first ten years of my school life in which the subject read about was ever talked of or explained in any manner, but we were taught by rule and that was all it amounted to. Take for in­ stance “The prisoner of Chillon” by Byron. Hundreds of times I have read it in the school room.'' I have read it alone under the careful eye of the "school-muster” or “school-ma’rm" as we allied them. I have read it in con­ cert, with my toes on a certain mark, Abiding the book in my right hand about six inches from my nose, at an angle of about 45 degrees, my left hand hanging carelessly by jny side. I am not certain but I think I have learned ■it and spoken it on those days when either we must "write a composition” as they called it ‘•speak a piece* or take the 'consequences, which with some teachers meant one thing and with some another; but it is a fact that I knew nothing of the beauty of the story or the lessons it taught for long years after that, and it was not because 1 was too obtuse to understand it but because that was not the end sought We learned by rule, and I have never been and I am afraid I never shall be able to read with that ease and attention that I most certainly would have read had I in the start been drilled in habits of thought and atten­ tion in this regard. Take that" masterEiece by Knowles "Tell on the Alps.” low many times I have read it by rule. To read it rightly gives one a wonder? tul drill in modulation and emphasis— that drill we had—such as it was. but we were never taught the granduer of its sentiment. What we were taught was all right, but there were lessons there so far beyond the mere drill in modulation and emphasis. There were lessons in it of love of country, love of home, a beautiful tribute to liberty. To know that piece as it is, to under­ stand it fully one would hate tyranny in all its forms, and love liberty and freedom more and more as the days go by. Then again, I say teach in the schools as the first great principle of intellec­ tual progress the habit of thought, the habit of careful selection, as the schol­ ar’s midd unfolds. The mind of the pupil should be stimulated, they should be trained in the habits of enquiry.

But there was one teacher Century ' says those pat words upon this in a certain school who was a careless subject: -• “The thing to be first sought, thoughtless reader and he did not read and ; the thing often neglected in our it that way.

If they are trained early in infancy of the folly HoicrMann. in a Irtter to .law student, saj™, “that ai.pendthrirt of health Is one of the moot reprehend ble of spendthrifts.’’ Said he “I mn rertain I should have performed twice toe lalwr, both better and with greater erae to myself had I known ra much of the laws of health and life at twenty-one as I do now. In college I was taught all about the motions of the planets, as though theywould hare been in danger of getting off the track if I had not known how to trace their orbits: but about my own organization, and toe conditions indispensable to the health­ ful functions of my own bodv. I was left in profound ignorance. >othing could be more preposterous. I ought to have begun at home and taken the stars when it should come their turn. The consequence was, I broke down at toe commencement of my second college vear, and have never had a well day sinee. Whatever labor I have since been abb to do has been done on credit instead of capital—a most ruinous way either in regard to health or money. For the last twenty-five years, so far .as it regards health, 1 have been put from day to (Jay, on my good behavior; and during the whole of this period, as an Hibernian would say, 'If I bad lived as other folks do for a month, I should have died in a fortnight.” In conclusion, then, let me say to the members of this association, the work you have in hand is not only of vast importance to the parents of the child­ ren you teach, but to toe state at large, for many of your pupils have no train­ ing except what is given them in the schools. It is your duty to aid the pa­ rent in making healthy, useful citizens. What we want as parents is that our children shall develop into robust men find women; that their thoughts shall not be dwarfed in any way, by excessive study, by superficiality, by perverted ideas. We want our boys and .girls to come to us from the schools and col­ leges knowing more, with better sense than when they left us. The education of young men for the exhibition of tight fitting clothing is of no importance to the parent or state. It is not a good indi­ cation to have children come lack to the home roof so important as to forget the commandment, "Honor thy father and mother.” Nor do we want them re­ turned .to us with crooked spines and unnatural walks and positions. If they S7 away as John Smith or William rown; if they have the right training they will come back as John Smith and William Browh. Our young people have something of . a habit of twisting around the names they start out in life with. It is frequently an evidence of a mental vacuum. If your name is' John Jones, you might as well submit to it Of course. If your name is Sarah Jane Smith br Susan Brown, or in fact any feminine name, Vou have a right to change it if you can do so in a legiti­ mate way. That is to say, you have a right to change the sirname, but the given name that your dear father or mother gave you, you better let it re­ main. 1 think I have as good a right to find f ault with a name as any one, but I never have. There was once a girl whose name was Sarah Jane •Smith. Possibly she J* Mvinf yet, and possibly there may be others of the same name. when she Ural left her good old oountry home, with Its quiet, simple wavs, for a year in a fashionable boarding school, she signed her name, “Sarah Jane Smith" and took no offense at being called Sally.

McKevitt. of Middleville attaches go much impor­ tance to the fact that he ha* discontin­ ued the Banner that he puhiiahee a card in the Journal anaouncin^ tbe fart. We presume James thought that such a bombastic course would paralyze us. But as we have over sixteen hundred names on our subscription book, after removing that of our friend. Supervisor McKevitt will pardon naif we refuse to be paralyzed. supervisor McKevitt doubtless forgot to mention why he attempts to pulver­ ize us with his withdrawel card, so we will do that duty for him. _ For some time our Middleville cor­ respondent—who, we will state here, never owed Jama H. McKevitt or any other saloon-keeper a dime—has inti­ mated that McKevitt’s saloon was not conducted according to law—was open Sundays. Now it either is or is not a fact that Thornapple’s supervisor vio­ lates the law relative to saloons. If It is not, be knew the Banner or any other journal would allow him to set himself aright before tbe people. He was offered that chance by the writer, whether he continued to take the paper or not. If it is true that he violates the law, tbe people ought to know it, and our Middleville correspondent had a right to report it. If it is true, it ought to be known, no matter whether the law-breaker is tbe meanest man in Thoraapple, or the supervisor, who is usually supposed to be the best. Facts are what we want, let them hit where they will. And if we or our Middle­ ville itemher have misrepresented our friend, we shall do all that can be hon­ orably asked to make amends. It is his right and duty to discontinue the Banner if its course doa not suit him. Of that we care nothing, except that we dislike to offend any man. But it is not Mr. McKevitt’s duty to repel charges of violating the law by attack­ ing some one he does not know. That does not hurt our correspondent, for the statement made is not true. If it were, it would not help McKevitt. HrtfetBiiifBtjslfai Ordinarily, by the second week in May, the creeping things of the earth,-will have commenced their work of destraction in good earnest The currant Worm will put in an appear­ ance. At first he will be found hidden away in the center of the bushes, near the ground. Part the bushes, and dust with HAMMOND’S SLUG SHOT, the great annihilator of insect life. And, if well done, it will prove so thorough that few escape to make a second crop. Then follows the Tent Caterpillar, which so disfigures and injures fruit trees. Dust him and his nest with HAMMOND’S SLUG SHOT, and your trees are safe. The Cut Worm—that gray worm which cuts, down se many beans, cucumber, beet, and other plants—must be looked af­ ter. When the plants appear, throw over fhem a small hand­ ful of HAMMOND’S SLUG SHOT. It will not suit the worms, but will make the plants grow. The small fly which makes such havoc with turnip, cabbage, and beet plants, and melons of the various kinds—look out for this fellaw. for he will not leave yon many plants, if he has his way. HAMMOND’S SLUG SHOT keeps him out of mis­ chief. Dust it over the plants, and it will make them thrive. When the plnm is forming the Curculio is busy.

ATTENTION FARMERS’ FARM MACHINERY Call on The following account ef a suicide near Middleville we dip from the Re­ publican; Wm. Colby, a farmer living one mile north of this village, found the body of an unknown man hanging by the neck from the limb of a tree in his woods ■ Thursday evening. Help was summon­ ed nnd the body taken down and now lies in Dr. Ferguson’s office, where an inquest was held this morning. There was nothing found upon the body by which he could be identified, other than the fact that he was a German whose given name was Charlie. Two bullets boles were found in the body, one just above the right ear the other in the pit of the stomach, which shot was sup­ posed to be the cause of his death.

It aeemed by tbe language of the writer that the tempter had lieen at work with some of the members of your lodge. Being a friend of temper­ ance we have made some inquiries in regard to the same. It not being nec­ essary to state facts, as I suppose you all know them, we would say to the one who had the moral courage to reply when asked to pass the jug, “I have pledged mvselt to touch not, taste not, handle not that which 5vill intoxicate," We would say to that one, God speed. Stick to that resolve. If there be those among you who have yielded to tempta­ tion we would say to you, do not sink them still lower in the depths of dagreEtion by an unkind word; but take am kindly by the hand, talk to them as friend to friend, though they have stumbled. Do not let therni fall. You them up higher. I tall you it takas no Binall amount of courage for thcaa who have been in the chains of intemparanoe or ten rouses True J. M.

LondoN) June 20.—The unexpected developmente Thursday in the march of events render It quite possible, tn the opinion of many Literals, that Mr. Gladstone, how­ ever much be may be disinclined. wiU be compelled to return to dffice. It is re­ ported that the Marquis ot Salisbury de­ manded from the retiring Ministry a inoro comprehensive promise of support than the Liberals were prepared to give. It is believed by many Liberals also that tte visit Thursday of Mr. Gladstone to the Queen at Windsor Gastie. although osten­ sibly for the purpose of delivering up the seals of his office, really hail connection with tte subject of bls return to office. The Conservatives, however, have not a doubt but that the Marquis of Salisbury will ac­ cept the office. . Conservatives are signing a memorial to Lord Salisbury asking him to refuse office unless a pledge be obtained from the Lib­ erals. . The Liberals nro signing a memorial to Gladstone urging him' to remain firm. The Liberals have re-solved to stop supplies until the Redistribution ot Beata bill is completed. It Im understood that Sir Staf­ ford Nortlicote has accepted the peerage re­ gardless of anv action that may be taken. The Queen lias offered Mr. Gia istotie Mi Earldom in recognition of his sen-ices u^Jte Queen and the country. Mr. Gladstone has asked that he be allowed to forego the honor. The News rejoices at Mr.1 Glad­ stone’s decision, and says that no title could add to his fame or enhance the devotion of his countless admirers. It Is said that the Queen is determined, if possible, to induce Mr. Gladstone to accept a peerage. Her Majesty will again offer him a title, arid, in the event of his refining it, will confer the honor upon Mrs. Glad­ stone. London. June 22.—The political dead­ lock continnes and there Is no material change In the situation. It is stated that lu the event of tte Literals retaining office Mr. Joseph Clnuuterlalnxjrtll posslb’y be npiMiinted Chief Secreiary for Ireland. The Dally Netrg .to an editorial on the po­ litical situation says: •’The alternative Is simple. Either Lord Salisbury nW farm a Cabinet an<l the LI bond leaders be con­ trolled by public opinion, or Mr. Gladstone mnsc return to office-” The Gladstone Cabinet met Saturday morning and discussed the scope of the a»stiranceii of ahi to carry on the Government wlileli it is proposed that tte Liberals ahall give to the Conservatives. A report Ia current lu some quarters that the Gladstone Cabinet has concluded to give a I tte aid that mky be In their jgiwer to enable the Oonservatlves to tako office. It Is also Mid that the Cabinet nflopted a resolntion to tills effect. 'There arc other repor*-,. irnweVw. that the Tories have refused to ju-cept U»e responsibility of forming a Ministry under exiting cirnumstanccs, and that Mr. Gladstone will resume thel’remlership.

Additional County News north The people of Michigan should de­ mand of the committee on railroads of the Michigan house of representatives an explanation of their conduct in not reporting the Shoemaker freight bill be­ fore the final adjournment of the legis­ lature. It waa one of the most just bills ever introduced, designed to prevent one of the most crying evils of our time- railroad discrimination in freight rates. Railroad lobbies, lobbies, from the stock exchanges and manufactur­ ing exchanges of Grand Rapids and Detroit, went to Lansing, and by those arts which they too well understand, influenced the committee on railroads to smother the bill. And those who are interested in the passage of the bill did not do their duty. With proper effort, petitions in favor of • the measure signed by two-thirds of the tax-payers of Michigan could have been forwarded to Lansing, and no leg­ islature would have dared to defy such petitions. Not a man went to Lansing '' to represent those who want such a measure as the Shoemaker bill passed. All the work was done by corporations and their favored patrons. When the people do their whole duty regarding a measure in which they are vitally inter­ ested then their legislators will act in accord with their wishes. When the people act indifferent as to any reform like that proposed in the Shoemaker bill, then the lobbyists get in their work. At the next session of the Mich­ igan legislature we hope to see proper influences brought to bear to make leg­ islators do their duty. If proper effort is made, the Shoemaker bill can easily be passed. SPECIAL rZl DEALERS IN ©extracts Barry. The weather is cool; very little frost Saturday the 13th. Corn is growing fast.

KmpecituUy, HJCHAKDe TRIAL S BINDERS Hanover Agricultural Fair. Hanovir, Pa., June 5th, 1885. The trial of binders in green rye came qff to-day, between the following machines: Plano, Osborne, McCormick, W. A. Wood, Deenng, Excelsior and the Champion. The ‘‘light running” Plano stuck several times around the two-acre patch, and missed about a half-dozen bundles, and after the horses were played out, the driver of the light running Plano said to the engineer of the Eclipse road engine. “I wish you would hitch your engine to the Plano binder. It runs too hard for my horses.” The Plano was then hooked onto the steam engine, when she succeeded in getting around once more and then pulled but, hoping to appear in good shape for the harvest of 1886, with new ana valuable improvements. Next came the McCormick. She succeeded in getting around the patch once and a half, when she jumped her sector plates, and came to a dead stop. The agent’s excuse was that they did not have-their "dog1’ along: bnt we thought we saw him running through the rye in pursuit of the rabbit. .The Wood party went into the contest very cooly and delib­ erately; but their machine deceived them badly, and she did almost everything but what a good binder should have done. We noticed one of the agents following up with the labor­ saving sheaf carrier under his arm. \ The Osborne machine, thinking to take time by the fore­ lock, went into the rye at 10 o’clock in the morning, instead of 2 o’clock, the hour appointed: but came out disabled after going one round. The Deering went in next, and made plenty of mistakes, and as usual, it took her about an hour to get around a twoacre patch, and was considered by many to be the heaviestdraft machine on the ground. The Excelsior machine was next in line. She madeseveral turns around the rye and did creditable work. A gentleman present who owns an Excelsior, said she_was a good machine, and the only objection he had to her is that she draws more like a log than a reaping machine. The Champion machine followed up in her usual style, run­ ning nicely, and never missed tying a bundle. She cut the highest and the lowest stubble of any machine on'the ground, and the mineral opinion of the people preeeut was that she wss the lightest draft machine in the trial. twelve ’Binder?*11Cltampio" ground, including ’ childhood the girl never Hbe had bunted for It twenty yean.

The weight of all single rate let­ ters is increased from % ounce or frac­ tion to one ounce or fraction thereof. The same increase of weight is allowed for drop letters, whether mailed at stations where there, is a free delivery or where carrier service is not estab­ lished. 2. All news papers sent from the office of publication, including sample copies, or when sent from a news agen­ cy to actual subscritiers thereto, or to other news agents, shall be entitled to transmission at one cent per pound or fraction thereof, the postage to be pre­ paid. This is a reduction of one-half from existing rates. 3. That a special stamp of the value of ten cents may be issued which when attached to a letter, in addition to the lawful postage thereon, shall entitle the letter to immediate delivery at any place containing 4,000 poulation or over according to the federal census, within the carrier limit of any free delivery office, or within a mile of the postoffice, or any other postoffice coming within the provision of thirf law which mhy in like maimer be designated as a special delivery office; that such SPECIAL STAMPED LETTERS shall be delivered between 7 o’clock a. m. and midnight: that a book shall be Eovided in which the person to whom e letter is addressed, shall acknowl­ edge its receipt; that messengers for this special delivery are to be paid eight per cent, of the face value of all stamps received and recorded in the month, provided that the aggregate compensation paid to any one person for such services shall not exceed 830 per month; and provided, further that the regulations for the delivery of these specially stamped letters shall in no way interfere with the prompt delivery of letters as provided hy existing law and regulations. These are all the provisions of the new law which makes changes in rebvtion to postage. The government has doubled the weight which may be car­ ried for two cents, has reduced the pos­ tage one-half on newspapers sent from publication offices, and has provided that a letter, for ten cents additional, may be immediately delivered by spec­ ial messengers at any time between 7 o’clock in the morning and midnight. The friends of the special stamp feature expect that it will materially add to the revenue. CASTORIA for Infant* and Children.

Later In ths day General Stone and members of toe American committee visited the Frenchman, and formally made the acquaintance of the coMiinnuder. The Isere is an iron vouel of one thousand tons burden, with a snow­ white hull.

The shipping In the harbor was gayly decorated, and en­ thusiastic multitudes lined the shores of Long Island and New Jersey. The Isere dropped anchor amidst the thundering of cannon, the blowing of whistles and the playing of bands. Two hours later tiie French naval ollloers landed at the Battery and were escorted by a military procession to the City Hall, where a banquet was given, Mayor Grace presiding. It will probably be a year before the statue will be ready for unveiling. Upon its completion the statae will be of a bright, Kofa-like color, such as that of a new penny. The metal Is pure copper, and not bronze, s$o that it will have a strong reddish. In­ stead of a yellowish,- tinge.

It is the shrine at which peo­ ple, ground under the heel of tyranny in tiie older worlds, worship with a fer­ vency that Americans can scarcely real­ ize; it is a principle for which Nihilists willingly die the death of dogs; and fit and proper it is t hat at the very en­ trance of the bay of New York this emblematic statue should Hash a wel­ come to the world* The press is entitled to the credit of this achievement. Mr. Philip Beers, who has been making a circuit of the country on behalf of the Pedestal fund, says that the fund will certainly be raised, as the world does not know the word fail. Mr. Beers says that he has found the most pronounced generosity among those of foreign birth. They seem more appreciative of liberty tnan do our native born. Moreover, among some a strange prejudice seems to exist -Prejudice}' In what particularp* “I have found that however meritori­ ous a thing may bv, thousands of peo­ ple will inevitably be prejudiced against it I have spent moat ot my life on the road and 1 know the American people like a book. In 187ft a personal misfor­ tune illustrated this prevailing prejud­ ice. I waa very ill, had suffered for several years with headache, fickle ap­ petite, dreadful backache, cramps, hot head, cold-hands and feet and a general break down of the system. I dragged myself back to New York, seeking the best professional treatment. It so hap­ pens that among my relatives is a dis­ tinguished physician who upbraided me roundly for preaching so much about my own case. Finally, with some spirit, I remarked to him: "Sir, you know that much of your professional wisdom is pretense. You cannot reach a case like mine and you know it, can you ?” “I had him; and he finally conceded the point, for it was Bright’s disease of the kidneys which had prostrated me, and the schoolmen admit they, cannot cure it. Haring cured myself however, in 1879. and not having seen a sick day since, my relatives finally admitted that Warner’s safe cure, which accomplished this result, was really a wonderful preparation. Had President Rutter, of the Central-Hudson used it, I am certain he would be alive to-day, for he could not have been in a worse condi­ tion than I was.” . "I have found similar prejudices among all classes concerning even so laudable a scheme as this pedestal fund.” . Mr. Beer’s experience and the recent death of President Butter, of the Cen­ tral-Hudson railroad, of an extreme kidney disorder, proves that the physi­ cians nave no real power ovefr such diseases, and indicates the only course one should pursue if, as the late Dr. Willard Parker says, headache, sickness of the stomach, dropsical, swellings, back ache, dark and offensive fluids, prematurely impaired eyesight, loss of strength and energy occur, for they un­ mistakably indicate a fatal result, if not promptly arrested. Yes, sir-ee, every cent needed for the pedestM will be raised. Ot course it will be a great triumph for the world, but would it'qiot have been an eternal disgrace had our people failed to pro­ vide for this pedestal V” The Rev, <»eg. H.

THE KDiG AND THE MADMAN. A certain King went to visit a mad­ house and found there an intclHgtentlooking youth, who, after replying sen­ sibly to a number of ouestioD* put to him by the sovereign; at length addressed the latter, saying: “You have asked me .many things; Iwill now ask you one. . At what period does a sleeper enjoy his sleep most?" The King reflected awhile and said: “Whfle he w actually sleeping." “That can not he," said the madman, “for he has no perception while asleep." “Thep; before he goes to sleep," said the King. “How can one enjoy anything," said the madman, “before it comM?” “Then." said the King, “after he has been asleep." “Nay, said the mad­ man. “a man can not be said to enjoy a thing that has passed away." fto pleased was the King with the other’s wit that he determined to make a com­ panion of him. had a table set out in front of the window of the madhouse, and bade his attendants hand a cup of wine to himself and one to his mad friend. “You drink year cup," said the latter, •’that vou may become like me; but if I drink mine, whom shall I be like?" Th® King, on hearing this speech, threw away the cup, and remained a total abstainer for evermore. . ,t ‘ A CUNNING FOX. Two travelers had halted in the desert, and hadjust killed a couple of fowls for their dinner. Before they could dress the birds the hour of prayer arrived, and they turned tike good Moslems, to their devotions. A fox. who hud beeli skulking in the neighiKirhood, scemg them thus engaged, came holdlv up unfi carried off one of the fowls lieforc their eyes. Prayers over, they l»egan lamenting their loss, when, to"their amazejaent, they beheld the thief at a little distance, dragging his tail .submissively behind him. ana holding the fowl in his- month. He­ then deposited it on the gronnd and. slunk away, with every sign of repent- ■ ance and ’ contrition.- They at onoe hailed the occurrence as a miraculoos testimony to (heir own piety, and nu> to pick up the fowl which had be«in strangely restored to them. On reach­ ing th® spot, however, they found that Reynard had only restored the skin with the feathers on. and in the mean­ time had slyly stolen around to .their camp tire and made off with the re­ maining moiety of their dinner. — Paintert “Jk^erlofthe Exodus," p. 1P2. A QUICa-WtTTED BHKFHERD. “A certain shepherd had a dog of which he was very fond, and whijh. having, to his* great grief, died, was buried by him with every mark of affection and regret.

"And now,” said she, after the usual welcoming speeches and compliment­ ary remarks about the becomingness of her traveling costume had all been made, "tell me who is here,” "Oh! the old set,” answered two or three of her friends together.

"There isn't any story to tell, Bell, my dear," replied the youthful, brigbtjyed matron thus singled out.

You said last she was the ‘whimmiest of whimmen.’ Pray tell me what shapes her whims take?" "Oddities of dress, principally. When we first beheld her, two days after her arrival—she had kept her room in' the interim—she wore a sort’ of turban, apparently evolved from a large, soft, cnmspn silk hand­ kerchief, tilted rather rakishly over the left eye.

I can not, in consideration for her, take the dreadful responsibility of keeping my mistress’ secret any longer. Ladies, that splendid looking fellow— so bound to the side of hb wife—would, had it not been for her angelic love and devotion, have been long ago the in­ mate of a lunatic asylum. Don’t be frightened, he has never hurt anv one but her. For years he has been subject to insane paroxysms whose fury he vents upon the being he loves best in the world. Once over them he is as sane as you or I. For several weeks past these attacks have been much more, frequent than ever before. But no one has suspected them, even in this crowded hotel, for having, .as yon have already suggested, Miss Dutton, some­ thing of the tiger about him, it b but a stealthy bound, a noiscleas', heavy blow, or two or three—received without a murmur—and then he sinks into a pro­ found slumber from which he awakes utterly unconscious of what he has done, to laugh as you do at hb wife's whims. That fantastic turban con­ cealed a wound in the left temple; the long gloves covered bruised hands and arms; the scarf was tied about a swollen neck, and the yards of illusion wrapped around her slender throat to-night hide the marks of cruel fingers. ‘Madam Whims!’ Madam Saint, I say! ’He only hurts me,’ she prays, when I threaten disclosure. 'He only hurts me and does not mean to do it. as you well know, Gregg, for he lovei me, he loves me dearly and I adore him. What he does in the wretched moments thirty he is not himself I can bear, but to be parted -from him forever—oh! that 1 could not bear.’ She .came here In the hope that the waters might do him good, but he has, as I have told you, grown worse, and after to-day's ex­ perience it would be crime for ma to remain silent any longer. ‘Give me the name, please, of the best physician in the—my God! what was that?’ she broke off’ suddenly to exclaim; as a pistol shot rahg out upon the air, and then she fairly flew back through the drawing-room, out into the hall, and up the stairs that led to her mistress’ apartment, followed, almost as swiftly, by the horror-stricken womvn who had been listening to her story. Throwing open the door of/the sitting-room she entered, leaving the others huddled to­ gether in the threshold. "Too late! too late!" shearied; "look there." And there on .the floor, beside a couch which heja the form, of hb wife, lay the lifeless body of Luke Halpin. "He has killed her in one of hb insane mo­ ments," continued the companion in a shrill, unnatural voice, "and finding her dead on awakening has taken*his own life with the pistol I thought Ihad so carefully hlcjden from him. And see, see, wringing her hands while the tears rolled down her cheeks, oh! what' a pitiful sight—she played •Madam' Whims’ to the last." And pressing silently forward they saw that the dying woman, with some wild Ides of biding the act that had cost her her life, ana shielding him who was dearer to her than that life, had with her last strength draped a gauzy shawl over the knife-vound In her breaat, but the tell-tale blood had dripped through and stained the white silk dress she wore with spots of vivid red!—Margaret Eyiinge, in Detroit Free Preu.

Likewise many statesman, lawyers, clergyman, doctors of worldwide fame have been cured, but we can only refer to such .persons in the most guarded terms, as we do in our reading articles.” “Are these reading articles success­ ful?” “"When read they make such an im­ pression that when the ‘evil days’ of ill health draw nigh they are remembered, and Warndr’s sate cure is used." “No, sir, it is npt necessary now as at first, to do such constant and extensive advertising. 4 meritorious medicine sells itself after its merits are known. We present just evidence enough to disarm skeptics and to impress .the mer­ its of the remedies upon new consu­ mers. We feel it to be our duty to do this. Hence, best to accomplish our mission of healing the sick, we have to use the reading-article style. People won’t read plain testimonials.” “Yes, sir, thousands admit that had they not learned of Warner's sate cure through this clever style they would still be ailing and still impoverishing themselves in fees to unsuccessful ‘practitioners.* It would do your soul good to read the letters of thanksgiv­ ing we get fjom mothers grateful for the perfect successs which attends War­ ner's safe cure when used for children, and the suprised gratification with which men and women of older years and impaired vigor, testify to the youth­ ful feelings restored to them by the same means." “Are tnt-se good effects permanent ?'1 "Of all the cases of kidney, liver, uri­ nary and female diseases we have cur­ ed, not two per cent of them report a return of their disorders.

The kidneys and liver are the sources of physical well-being. If jollute-d by disease, all the blood l>ecomes poisoned and every organ is ef­ fected and this great danger threatens every one who neglects to treat himself promptly. I was nearly dead myself of extreme kidney disease, but what isnaw Warner s safe cure cured me, and I know it is tho only remedy in the world that can cure such disorders, for I tried everything else in vain. Cured by it myself, I bought it and, from a sense of duty, presented it to the world. Only bv restoring the kidneys and liver can disease leave the blood and the system.” A celebrated sanitarian physician once said to me. “The secret of the wonderful success of Warner’s safe cure is that it is sovereign over all kidnev, liver and urinary diseases, which primwily or secondarily make up the majority of human aihnenta.

The trial of binders in green rye came off to-day. between . the following machines: Plano, Osborne, McCormick, W. A. Wood, Deenng, Excelsior and the Champion. The “light running” Plano stuck several times around the two-acre patch, and missed about a half-dozen bundles, and after the horses were played out, the driver of the light running Plano said to the engineer of the Eclipee road engine. “I wish you would hitch your engine to the Plano binder. It runs too hard for my horses.” The Plano was then hooked onto the steam engine, when she succeeded in getting around once more and then pulled out, homing to appear in good shape for the harvest of 1886, with new1 and valuable improvements. Next came the McCormick. She sucveeded.in getting around th.e patch once and a half, when she jumped her sector plates, and came to a dead stop. The agent's excuse was that they did not have their “dog1’ along; but we thought we saw him running through the rye in pursuit of the rabbit. The Wood party went into the contest very cooly and delib­ erately; but their machine deceived them badly, and she did almost everything but what a good binder should have done. We noticed one of the agents following up with the labor­ saving sheaf carrier under his arni. The Osborne machine, thinking to take tiihe by the fore­ lock. went into the rye at 10 o'clock in the mbripng, instead of 2 o'clock, the hour appointed; but came out disabled after going one round. The Deering went in next, and made plenty of mistakes, and as usual, it took her about an hour to get around a twoacre patch, and was considered by many to be the heaviest draft machine on the ground. The Excelsior machine was next in line. She made several turns around the rye and did creditable work. A gentleman present who owns an Excelsior, said she was a 'good,machine, and the only objection he had to ger is that she draws more like a log than a reaping machine. • The Champion machine followed up in her usual style, run­ ning nicely, and never missed tying a bundle. She cut the highest and the lowest stubble of any machine on'the ground, and the general opinion of the people present was that she was the lightest draft machine in the trial. . , Iwaity-siv Champion machines on the ground, including twelve Binders. • J.

London, Juno 25.—The inembera of the Gladstone Ministry went to Windsor Castlo yesterday and delivered, up the • seals of office. Soon after the nibnibers of the late Ministry had retired from Windsor Castle, after delivering up the seal of office, tlie members of the new Ministry fornual by the Marquis of Salisbury arrived, and went through tlie ceremony of accepting office from tlie Queen anti receiving tlie seals, making acta-of oljeisance by kisMing the hand of Her Maji-sty. Great crowds of peo­ ple were assembled at tlie railroad dejxjt upon the arrival of the train bearing the new Ministry. Tlie Marquis of Salisbury :u>d Sir Stafford No ribcote were loudly Cheered. Sir Stafford to on especial degree. Lord Randolph Churchill, on the contrary, was received with mingled cheers and groans. In the House of Commons yesterday there was a full attendance of members, tlie Conservatives occupying Ute ministerial benches. Mr. Gindstoini read the corre­ spondence between himself and the Mar­ quis of Salisbury , which relates to the re­ cent political deadlock, and which wm con­ ducted through the medium of the Queen. Lord Salisbury demanded pledges or Lib­ eral support to enable the Conservatives to finish the absolutely necessary business ot the session. He wished the new Ministry to be given precedence ou those days fixed for the Supply or Appro­ priation bill, and demanded that if no other way of meeting tlie deficit were feasible the income tax should remain at eight pence for Uie remainder of the year, leaving tlie deficit to be met by an issue of exchequer bonds or a tem­ porary loan. Lord Salisbury explained that it would be useless to take office with­ out the support of Um Liberal leaders, be­ cause an apjHjal to the country under the Redistribution of Sekte bill would be im­ possible before November'. Mr. Gladstone, in reply, gave assurance that he had no wish to embarrasH Uie new Government After consulting his colleagues Im in­ formed the Queen Uiat be conceived Umt It would be contrary to public duty to com­ promise tho liberty of Uie House of Com­ mons by giving specific pledgiw'ffiot to op­ pose the remaining business of the session before poeseeelDg all he facto bearing upon such bastoesa. He concluded by assuring the Queen that facilities for expediting the supply might reasonably be provided, und there would be no at­ tempt to withhold Uie ways and mean* re­ . <,uhvd for the public service. He refused, , however, to give specific pledges in regard to undefined questions. I be t Gladstone’s correspondence is thoroughly satisfactory to Uie Liberals, while the Itad. teals consider that It leaves Uiem free to follow any course of opposition.

There is something very strange and inexplicable about coincidences. If, for instance, in a large city, there should be two persons who hate the sight of each other, by the irony of chance they will meet each other con­ tinually on the cars, or in the theater, or on the street. An illustration of this occurred in New York not long since. A middleapnl lady was seated in a ear on the Central Railroad. Opposite to her was a gentleman, who had a sodiewhat literary appearance, who was reading a paper. He seemed to be a little emharrassed. The face of the lady wore a very cynical expression.

OTO, and A writer in tbe New York Tribune « been experimenting with cream, and has come to the conclusion, which seems quite reasonable, that the ripen­ ing of cream does not consist in, or nec­ essarily include scouring. He safs: “When I set a sample of milk for 48 hours at 63 degrees ia.au atmosphere of pure oxygen, and another equal sample from the same mess of milk for the : HasUnxs.M^n nudla as second BtilTOBXAIa IsUTBB.

Two in an atmosphere containing no oxygen, both soured exactly alike and both samples produced exactly the same quantity of butter. If tbe ripening of cream and development of butter fla­ vor depends on souring alone, these two samples of butter should have been alike, since the milk and cream were sour alike in both samples; but thev were not alike. They were very differ«it,and the churning was different. The cream from the milk set In oxygen gas, churned in two-thirds of the tune required for churning the cream of the milk from which oxygen wm excluded, bv enveloping itAn-carbonic acid gas. rhe butter from the former was very highly flavored and delicious, and re­ markable for its long keeping. The butter from the latter was less flavored, and equally remarkable for being short - lived. The milk vats in the latter case appeared to have acquired no new flavor . from the act of souring, but to have re­ tained unchanged the new milk flavor they had when the milk was first set. This experiment, repeated till the results were demonstrated to l>e uniform, is in­ teresting as showing the fallacy of the current opinion that souring is the potent agency in ripening cream, either for the purpose of heightening the . flavor of butter, or to give it long keep­ ing, or to make churning easy, for it Kves positively that something else n souring, is necessary to these ends, and that something is free oxygen.

It is not ®e which justifies iteelf. It is an apjointment which will be criticised more severely than any other the presi­ dent has made, for it is not naturally and conspicuously fit,, by one requiring explanation, elucidation, and even ex­ cuses and explanation. Into the most Important office, outside of the cabinet, which the president has been called upon to fill he has put a man not only almost unknown to the business com­ munity of this city, and absolutely un­ heard of-outside of New York, but, so far as he is known, a man who repre­ sents Mr. Hubart O. Thompson and nothing else. The Dairy World tells us what be­ comes of “four cent butter: “They make oil out of it, and work it up into soap. I sold last spring a large lot to a harness-oil maker, who finds it lielter than any other substance for his purpose. Quack unguent vendors also use a lot, and I have been told that the great secret of Holloway’s Ointment is that it is made with butter instead of with “adeps,” which, I suppose you know, is the pharmacist’s name for lard. There’s no chance now that but­ ter can go lower; but the lesson to be taken to heart by the producer is that he ought to furnish (rood butter, and not grease; and that the labor, time and milk used in making poor cheese is worse than wasted and the article pro­ duced is only the cause of future trou­ ble to others. President Cleveland has done nothing since he came into office but listen to the petitions and entreaties of hqngry democratic office-seekers and friends. He has become so thoroughly disgusted with this condition of affairs that he has determined to give the whole officeseeing crowd the go-by, and will no longer listen to their supplications. He says that he was elected to attend to public business, and having given liber­ ally of his time to hungry applicants he thinks they have no further claims upon him, and will attend to the business for which he was elected.

Senator Conger, in a recent interview, says that as the democratic president has decided that no “offensive partisans" who are republicans shall hold office, the republican senate will see to it, as long as all presidental appointments jmust be confimred by them, that no “offensive partisans” who are democrats shall fill the vacancies. It is a poor rule that will not work both ways. If the test of fitness for office is to be “of­ fensive partisanship,” then that test ahould be applied to democrats as well as republicans. How does Russ W ightman like the prospect ?_____ . Another democrat has come to gribf, Joseph C. Mackin, secretary of the Cook Co_ Ill., democratic county com­ mittee, was found guilty of elects frauds by a jury of his cowntaymen WeJnpa/-. • —» -enced to five years m toe penitentiary. No doubt many more Chicago democrats were as guilty as he, and as deserving of punishment. Nor were democratic election frauds last fall confined to Chicago. The democratic press of Michigan have been loud in their denunciations of.“bossism” in the republican party. There never w& in this state or nation a more flagrant specimen of “boaslsin” and “machine polities" than is now afforded in Don. Dickinson, the demo­ cratic boss and dispenser of patronage for Michigan. The city of Buffalo has 202,819 popu­ lation, according to a recent census. This is an increase of over 25 per cent since 1880. If Chicago does not attend strictly to business, and Buffalo contin­ ues to increase at this prodigious rate, the former may have to yield the palm m “mistress of the lakes.” Dr. J. B. Lawes casually remarks, in the London Agricultural Gazette, that ensilage advocates have been guilty of great exaggeration, and the “promised revolution which the silo waste cause” has not yet put in an appearance.

Mr. Davenport is a graduate of Agricultural College, Lansing; and un­ like most of the graduates of that insti­ tution, he practically and sucoMsfully applies the knowledge thus gained up­ on a farm. Hence our farmer readers can count upon such management of thia Department as will be of interest and value to them. About two col­ umns a week will be devoted to farm topics. For the most part, tbe items will consist ot choice selections from farm and stock journals, which Mr. Davenport may deem of interest to Barry county farmers. We hope he may also favor them and the Banner with original articles on agricultural topics. Jve leave to him the entire management of the Department, and such methods as be may think proper to Increase its interest, he has liberty to use. Wednesday of last week, so says a correspondent signing himself “Silex," as W. 8. Beadle and a lad named Henry Shaffer were driving on the Hue de Borri, better known as State street, and when near tbe place wndome of Adam Tinkler, their horse became frightened at the cars and plunged into a ditch, overturning the buggy (which, by the way, was a Charlotte buggy.) The oc­ cupants came forth, even as Jonah came from the whale’s belly, with tiie prob­ able exception of thar being in full dress. The horse- turned back into the road, tbe buggy resuming its hormal position, for some reason unexplained, though Messer Bros, claim it was due to some mysterious property of that make of buggies, while Prof. Huxley claims that the fact of its resuming its former position is accounted for by natural causes. The horse thought—if horses do think—that it was owing to equine Dexter(ity.) Whichever theory may be the correct one, the horse pur­ sued the even tenor of itsl way-imtll caught at the residence of Ambrose Hubbell. No bones broken; no damage done. All of which goes to show that the Charlotte buggy is a very safe vehi­ cle to ride in, a good one to turn over in. and a good one to get up again.

Monday evening about 40 boys living in that vicinity went to give the newly married couple one ot the “sere­ nades” usual on such occasions. The father of the bride went out and told the boys that he would give them two minutes in which to leave, and he then fired a double-barreled shot gun, wound­ ing five of the boys. Fortunately none were dangerously hurt The affair causes the most intense excitement in the neighborhood, some even going so far as to suggest a coat of tar and feathers for the man who did the shooting. Our correspondent avers that the end is not yet The shooting into a crowd of boys is certainly a rep­ rehensible action, however great the provocation.

I told no one of this now knowledge that had come to me in such a strange way, but simply handed the paper to Romeo, to be placed by him under, his comrade’s pillow before it should be missed. Not long after this the hospitable matron received a letter from her old friend Christina Rossiter, just back from Europe. She wrote: “The circumstances which led us to go abroad were so embarrassing, and even painful, that neither to you nor to anyoncdW I wish to make them known. 1 do so now becAtise I wish to ask your aid in making what little amends i may for my own well-meant, but mistaken acts. You know, mv dear friend, how entirely my whole life and thoughts have been concentrated upon one pur­ pose, namely--tbc welfare of my daughter Elta. You know the promise of her early years, and how it justified Enotherly devotion. It was my purto spare no pain* in cultivating unusual musical gifti; to give her the best training tnis country could furnish, and afterwards the best masters abroad. Knowing, as you de, the unhappy experience of my own brief married life while still in my teens, you will nbt Im* surprised that an­ other thing upon which I was firmly resolved for Etta was that she should never marry, or make an engagement to marry, until old enough to make something more than a child's choice in so imjmrtant a matter. I kept her out of general societv. gave- up -the house in New Y’ork, and removed to the lovely and quiet village of Nyack, twentyfour miles away, which otlered likewise the attraction of a good school, with a line master of vocal culture. Alas’, it had also another attraction on which 1 had not counted, and before I was aware of it Etta »had given her hrve to Proctor Hatch, • lecturer on English poetry. I wonder now. look­ ing back, that 1 had never thought of thus danger, for Etta's enthusiasm for poetry is second only to her love of music. I myself attended the lectures on Spenser. Indeed, it was during these that I discoveml the ever-new meaning with which the Professor ren­ dered the old lines: "And ever w hen hl< eie did her behold HIm heart did Meme to melt la pleasures manifold." , Hr may have been a very worthy young man; he probably was. No one seemed to know much about him, besrgnd thefact of bis residence in New York, whence he came three times a week to deliver the Institute'- lectures that furnished his support while he was writing & poetical composition. In mv sorrow and disappointment I chose - to’ treat the whole affair as a youthful fancy on both sides, and exacted from both* that they would hold no communi­ cation w.th* each other during the two years that Etta aud I ahould tvniain abroad. By this test I wished to satisfy myself that it was likely to Imj nn enduring love; be­ sides, 1 could not abandon my life-long ambition for Etta’s rnusical culture. -She did her "best, poor child, to satisfy me; practiced with faithfulness; but with adistraughtmanner thaleon vinced me that her thoughts were often far away, and read the •Faerie Queen’ daily. The out­ break of the war decided our return somewhat before the. expiration of the two years. Almost as soon as we had arrived we learned that on the first call for troops Professor Hatch enlisted, and is supposed to have been killed in the battle of Bull Run. Poor Etta bds said little, but the stricken look in her face is a constant reproach to me. She seems now to have but one wish in life —to serve a» a hospital nurse. 1 shall make no obstacle; out 1 shrink from the thought of her going to soma far away post/ alone and unprotcated.

Big, brown aud beardnd, he lay in Cot Ko. 10, Ward K. of flie Army Hospital at Quincy, HL, saring little, and com­ plaining not at all. We girls, on our daily rounds through the wanl* with flowers and delicacies, came to speak of him as Juliet simply by reason of the gnat devotion of a convalescent comrade by the name of Romeo— Romeo Wilkins. Of course, at any time, from the hospital register, we could easily have found his proper Mtw an I rank: but nothing so prosaic was ever thought*of. We chose always rather to have our own distinctive titles—as “Achilles” for him of the wonuded heel, “bohillcr” because of a Uude in apples similar to that attributed to the great German poet, and “Dick­ ens” becaiPHof .a fancied personal re­ semblance to that popular author. If there was only an appearance of levity in this, it was only nu appearance, for pur sympathy wu< of a very sincere and tender kind. Ln those early years of the war, when we looked upon so much suffering and could do so little to relieve it, we must sometimes "laugh t<» hide the tear.- we shed,” and our net names Were endearing rather than ui».respectful There was nothing at all romantic about Romeo. H<* was simply an hon­ est. ignorant, but exceedingly kindhearted, fellow. nut quite well enough to be returned to duty, but well enough to do many -little kind offices for hi more helpless comrades. In particult did he engage himself with services adriieatrlv Conceived as they were often awkwanlly rendered f<>r his neighbor of Cot No. 10. It was thi« that in the be­ ginning, iw 1 have wild, led us to adop for the object of hi.- devotion the name of .Juliet. • Afterward, when by chance one uf us read “J.

He must have overheard sometime a bit of oar idle talk, for there was a sly twinkle in his eye as he handed me onr day a package marked. “For the Young Ladin-. With the compliments of the ‘fair Juliet’.” It proved to be a collection of mementoes, mostly pressed flowers or ]>ebblr*< from various battle­ fields, daintily put up, and addressed in a scholarly hand. Little amenities of tbh kind.‘the nicety of the few perIsonal effects that a soldier may carry with him, the choice diction and enun­ ciation that belong only to the cul­ tured. revealed Juliet to be of distinctly higher social grade than most of hu comrades, and we pleased our­ selves with many a fine fancy about him. Sometimes these were ba»ed upon the ring, a lady’s ring, set with a small diamond, that he wore on his little finger; sometimes upon a small volume constantly under his pil­ low, nnd frequently read. At flint we had a pretty theory that this was the New Testament that h<* wa* under filial promise to read dally: but this we were oblip^d to abandon on discover.ng the ’ book to be a copy of Spenser’s “1 aerie Queen.” Of course, there was a cruel fair oue somewhere—we made no doubt of that. “I can not understand.” said Doctor W., reporting the case to the chief sur­ geon. “why this man does not im­ prove.

FOR POOR ■ . . • . , . . • ' It must, we fear, be admitted that, ex­ cept with a very few men, war, as such, has for cultivated mankind a distinct in­ tellectual charm. It attracts them as nothing else does, until in its presence they can not turn their eyes away, and every other object of thought becomes comparatively insipid, and this even if the war is not one in which they are personally concerned. Of course if they are their absorption, is easily explained. The results of a war arc so tremendous and far reaching, they af­ fect all interests so deeply, and they may involve-the future of n country so inextricably, that it is impossible* for men who have any patriotic or political imagination at all not to study its pro­ gress. and even its minute, details, with concentrated attention. One big blun­ der in war may prostrate a nation. Even when, as is rarely .the case, in­ vasion is out of the question; the inci­ dents of a campaign, the conduct of thu troops, the capacity or imbecility of the Generals, become matters of per­ sonal and vital interest—-a victory seems a pleasure beyond all others, a defeat a cruel and individual catastrophe. Men’s interests, their hopes, their virtues, their foibles, and their fears are so involved in a war in which the nation is engaged, that every turn of fortune is an event of personal •moment, and the excitement becomes as intense as if the onlooker were, him­ self engaged. Men have been puown to go mad With joy after a great vic­ tory, and to sicken mortally [of the grief produced by a great defeit, and this in cases when, as it turned out, neither victory nor defeat lingered long in the general memory. There is nothing to be explained in thin -kind of interest, but the intellectual charm of war extends mueh further than this. Wars which are not ours interest us nearly as much as wars which are. •Scores of thousands of Englishmen followed the great American civil war with au attention which missed no de­ tail, and the European world watched the duel between France and Germany with a gaze which was almost painful in its intensity of watchfulness. The C* urnals. which always reflect the popur curiosity better than the popular thought, were full of nothing else, and the excitement was felt as keenly by men ordinarily devoted tb study as by men who had been soldiers or—a curiously common case ire a nation so devoted to civil pur­ suits—were soldiers by inner pro­ possession. It is usual to ascribe this attraction to unconscious, self-in­ terest. a desire that jone or the other side should win; but we do not think that has very much to do with the raatter. The onlookers in; a war take sides, no doubt, often enthusiastically, and with a persistence which it is not easy to explain; but it is not became of their hojMis or feart that they become so ab­ sorbed. They are hardly less attracted by the wars of history, which they ought to regard without passion; and these may lie keen excitement, though they fail to deckle which side they wish to win. The English ju'ople in the Franco-German war swerved distinctly from one side to the other; but they watched Gambetta and Chanzy with as much interest as they had watched Bis­ marck and Von Moltke. Moreover, in­ visible wars, though they may strongly Affect the Interests of men, do not exer­ cise thbj attraction. The war waged by 'France in Tonquin has hardly been watched nt all. while the two great Chinese wars of our div have hardly re­ ceived anything beyond » casual men­ tion. and never, even when in progress, excited the slightest possible attention. Yet the war in Tonquin was in many re­ spects the most important colonial war of our time: and the wo Chinese wars were, in the strangeness of their inci­ dents aud their awful! consumption of human life, among the phenomenal oc­ currences of the century.—Spectattnl LIFEBOATS. There Is a railroad not a thousand miles away from New-Orleans which is covered with water nearly the entire year; in facL whenever! a stiff shower of rain falls the road goes under. The train-men have become so accustomed to sliding through about two feet of water at the rate of eight or nine miles an hour that. they imagine they are ' leading a sailcy-’s life, and when they walk they swagger and roll from one side to the other, and hitch up their trousers at regular Intervals, and use nautical expressions when they converse with ouch other. Not long ago a passenger boarded a train on the road, and when the porter Came through the car he inouired how long it took to reach his aeatination, Bugleville, about sixty miles tin the road. ••1 can’t sav 'zacHy, boss, ’ replied the porter, “'cos it ’pends on how de wedder is.

Farmers of small means, however, and esjiecially those who live in a section of the coun­ try that is newly settled, have not the facilities for fitting cattle for the mar­ ket at so early an age. They gen eralIv have poor shelters for their stock or none at all. They have nothing but wild grass to, furnish pasturage or hay. They cannot easily obtain animals of improved breeds to keep. They may keep sheep to’ better advantage, as they can obtain money from the sales of their fleeces when the lambs are one year old. They can also sell some early lambs in the fall. It requires considerable capital, however, to get a good start with sheep. The purchase of fifty ewes aud one buck calls for more than a poor man who is paying for his place and supporting a family can raise. He can, howevqr, obtain half a dozen sows with pigs, and from them raise sufficient pork to meet his financial wants. Pigs multiply quickly that the expense of getting a large number is slight. The breed can be improved in a short time and at a small cost. It costs loss to provide suitable shel­ ter for hogs than for any other animals kept on farms. During the season of quite cold weather they rejpiire to tie kept dry and warm, but- shelters mav be built for them of very cheap materi­ als. It is not necessary, to employ me­ chanics to put up buildings to protect hogs. The walls may be ouilt of logs, stone, or very cheap lumber. The roof may be covered with straw laid on poles. If the drainage is good do fluor is needed. A lavger number of farm products may be utilized by feeding them to hogs than to other animals. They will gain during the summer if they have plenty of clover or tender grass. They will cat and derive benefit from alt kinds of grain, vegetables, fruit aud milk from which no use can be made. They will eat uuts and wild filante, and will devour vermin. Lessabor is required to harvest and pre­ pare food for hogs than for other ani­ mals. They will dig artichokes as they require them for food. They will shell corn from the cob and eat the heads of all the small grains. They are less particular than other animals about the way their food is prepared. The hog is not a dainty animal. No very expensive machinery is re­ quired on a farm that is chjefly devoted to the raising of hogs. Thera is no oc­ casion ror spading money for thrash­ ing. In sections where corn does well it will be likely to be the leading crop •raised for fattening hogs. Only a plow and cultivator are required for raising this crop. It can be harvested by the use of hand tools and fed without being shelled. The same tools are all that are required for raising artichokes or potatoes. The special machinery re­ quired on a fann chiefly devoted to the production or wheat will cost .more than all the tools needed on a farm of the same size that is devoted to the raising of hogs, and the animals neces­ sary to^tock it. There Is little trouble about market­ ing hogs in any part of the West. There are buyers in almost every town that has a railway station or a ‘steam­ boat landing. A farmer can change hogs into money quicker thdu^ie cau wool. Hogs can be slaughtered, EnckedOpid held’for a rise in the maret muon easier than beef or; mutton. Beef and mutton bring the highest price when- they are in the fresh state, but pork brings more after it is cured. Nearly every funner who dartres and has the means to do so can sell his hog products at home directly to consum­ ers some time during the year. The practice of selling nearly all the hogs in a neighborhood alive as soon as they aredattened and of takingthem to some large city to be slaughtered and packed, has become so common that there is rarely pork enough left in a hog-rais­ ing district to supply the inhabitants. Every spring and summer large quan­ tities, not only of lard, hams and bacon, but pickled pork are sent from this city to the districts from which the hogs that produced them came. Many fann­ ers who have the means to wait six months will in many cases be large gainers by slaughtering their hogs, curing the meat and trying out the lard and Keeping them *to supply the local demand; wnieh will be brisk in the coarse of a few months utter the time hogs are ordinarily sold. — Chicago 7\mes.

Ice not oaiy preserves and increases the palatable- in .wimer without foe; therefore tbr farmer without an ice-house must eat salt pork during hot weather, and that is just what a large majority of-ua do. Ice will often save meats, vegetables and fruits from spoiling outright An ice-house robs the swill barrel, bbc how much it saves for the table is hard to be realise^ without the aid of practical experience. I am decidedly of opinion that the •apparent indifference of farmers to the /Ittim of ice-houses & due to a mistaken notion of their cost. I hare frequently heai-d my neighbors say that they, wduld have an ice-house if it (|id not cost so much. Nowan ii*e-house is one of the most economical and cheap things in existence, The materials neea cost but *a trifle, and the farmer can construct the house himself. If it is desired that the house add to the at­ tractiveness of the property, and is placed where it will- be in p’lain view, then it must be more expensive. But it can Be put in some inconspicuous place, or hidden behind trees or vines, in which case the necessary cost of it will be very small. All that is required is something that trill keep off ram, and keep a stratum of sawdust about the ice. The house need not be sunk into the ground. There is no need of double walls. All parts may*be of the cheapest materials. Refuse boards, slabs, even poles, will do for the sides: and a roof of boards or clapboards will answer as well as any./ Let me describe as satisfaotory'an ioe-house ah I have yet seen: It was in a locality- where timber was plenty, and the sides were made of poles! These were built up as you would build up a rail pen, being rather deeply notched to prevent rolling, and to make the* sides rather close. As they projected out over the cracks, a driving rain did not beat in. Thd pea was covered over with boards, lapjx-d to form a tight roof, and weighted down with heavy poles. When the ice was put In, un opening between it and the poles a foot wide was left; and. as. the pile of ice was built up, the sawdust was packed into this opening. Thus there was no .need of double walls. The entire cost of the -house—a goodaiz<?d one—was not twenty dollars. There must be good drainage,. and the best way to secure thia is to make a foundation of broken stones; but these are not necessary. In localities-.-quite numerous in the West—where atone are not quite readily obtainable, sticks of wood, or rail pieces may lie used. Tramp them down solid til) you have a layer a foot thick. Then put a layer of sawdust six to eight inches thick upon this, and it is rejwly for the ice. The more ice the better it will keep, aud there must be a certain bulk for it to keep at all. The minimum bulk that will keep well is twenty-five tons. As a ton occupies about forty cubic feet, you can calculate the dimensions of the iiouse accordingly. A house ten feet each way insiae the sawdust will hold, twenty-five tons—the mini­ mum amount. It is ven- important to pack the ice closely, There must be no crevices. Shape the blocks so that they will fit closely together; cover with a layer of sawdust eighteen inches thick.. Then it will require watch­ ing in the spring. Even March winds are sometimes so warm that they will melt the ice. As soon as this hap­ pens, get on it and tramp it down solid, closing all holes and crevices. When air-holes are allowed to form, the ice will waste rapialy. Ventilation must be provided for. Windows can be made in the gables, or make a projecting root and leave the gables open. Get the ice from the purest’ source you can. The proper time to build an ice­ house is now. Have it ready and fill it at your convenience. After you have enjoyed the luxury of ice for one summer, you would not forego it for live times the labor and expense, provided you build an ice-house with­ out going to too much-expense to make it a nice house—John Al. Stahl, in Country Gentleman. THE JACKAL. Something About the Word, and Charac­ ter* It Represent*. The term jackal, the claim of which to be considered parliamentary seems now to be rather doubtful, has been used in a metaphorical sense attributed* to it by the speaker for at least two centuries or more. The earliest poem any length published by Dryden speak* ef the Flemish fire-ships waiting on their men of war “like jackals, who on their lions for the prey attend." 1 his allusion is, however, more in ac­ cordance with natural history than •then, afterward made which represent the smaller animal not only as follow­ ing the larger in hopes of pickit# up a teaet second-hand, but ax working for him in the capacity of scout or beater.

FOR SALE AT his life.• TIMBER andx toolsIt is a fact well known to millmei that it is not always the harder wdoda in the ordinary acceptation of the term that are the most wearing to the sawa Many practical persons marvel at thia 'and wonder to themselves why a pie« of timber showing small crushing, ten­ sion. and other strengths, requires mon •power to work into lumber, and at th< same time wears out the saws and cut ting tools faster than other varieties of timber, the strength of which, in mow respects, is greater. According to the Lumber Trade Jour­ nal. a log of black walnut and one ol burr oak of the same size worked into the same sized stuff will show widely different results on both saws and ma­ chinery. If we attempt to rive or split these logs, the walnut will-work much easier than the oak. and so fax as th» various strengths are concerned the oak is superior bv far. but when worked ot cut into bv tools of any description tin walnut presents much greater resistant* than the oak, and the- same is true as re­ gards many other varieties of hard ami soft timber*. If we take a longitudinal section ol the«e comparatively soft timbers Which are so hard on cutting edges, we will find the minute pores or interstices filled with minute glistening particles or crystals; .and subjected to eheminal analvsis wc will find them composed ot silica, one of the very hardest minerals known, while with the hard, easy work­ ing woods they will bo found nearly or quite absent by both the microscope and analysis. These little particles, so finely divided as%to be insusceptible «of ordinary touch, are really a better grit than ordinary sand, and are the means of cutting off the fine edge of cutting tools, ak saw teeth, plane irons, and the like. .Two plan® irons, made of a fine ’quality of steel, ar near alike as it was'possible to make ny an accurate, skilled me­ chanic, were each hardened in our laboratory by means of mercury, then finely sharpened, that the edges of each presented precisely the same appear­ ance beneath the magnifier. ' These were each inserted in an ordi­ nary plane, and one placed on oak, the other on a piece of walnut, both pieces of wood having been previously dressed. At the rate of one hundred pounds pressure, each iron was crowded for­ ward four inches. On the oak stick, the pressure ^rom the rear indicated 809.fi rounds, while with the walnut the indicator showed a pressure of over , one thousand pounds, The irons were both now withdrawn, and first placet! beneath the microscojie; the oqe used on the oak presented a genend upset appearance, the edge of the iron show­ ing a slight tendency to turn down­ ward. there being sufficient heat gen­ erated by the friction to partially draw the temper along the minute edge, which, however, would not extend back sufficient to materially affect the wear­ ing and cutting properties of the iron if in constant use. The iron used on the piece of walnut showed n scratched, notched appear­ ance all along the minute edge, aud by the aid of the moft accurate means of measurement at hand, these notches were all found to be of the same depth, but different distances apart, proving conclusively that the prfrticles of grit or crystals which caused them, were harder than the best mercurv steel, and were all of the same rixv, and evenly distributed, as far as regards depth of deposit in the gram of the wood. The small spaces of the iron edge between these notches or I serwtehes were found nearly as the en- i tire edge appeared originally, showing again that the cellular tissue of walnuL I outside its mineral deposits, was fraily j softer than that of oak; hence, were it, not for these deposits the timber would fuJ. “*“!h « won®, if the iron had been drawn back, and again shoved through, the notches would have been more apparent and general, increasing th” di*tano' sh“»«5 until the entire cutting edge had been of itself cut off.

Hastings, Mien., July 16,1886. EDITORIAL HOTM. Free trade papers boast that since England adopted free trade, the num­ ber of paupers there has decreased 4,000 annually. This statement is no doubt wrong since it cost Great Britian but 530^00,000 to care for her paupers in 1840, while it cost 580,000,000 in 1882. It cannot be that the number of pau­ pers there has been decreasing 4,000 a year, while the yearly expense of main­ taining them has increased 550,000,000 since 1840. But grant that the number has decreased as claimed, every sensi­ ble reader knows that England has “as­ sisted” ten times 4,000 paupers to come to America in a single year! The British •‘free trade almanac” states that the number of emigrants assisted by the British government, in 1882, was 40.000. This 40,000 were helped to get to Canada, but it is a notorious fact that the vast majority of them located incur own country. A-Canadian pa­ per says the number ot such assisted emigrants in 1883 was 80,000, of whom but 8,000 staid in the dominion, and 72,000 came to the United States. As we said iiefore, we do, not believe with all this assisted emigration that the number of paupers in Great Britain is decreasing. Would it be a wonder if it did, when she assists from 40,000 to 80,000 to come to America in a single year? And does not the fact of this enormous assisted emigration prove that pauperism is rapidly increased in that country ? There is no reason why it should not, with the starvation wag­ es paid to British laborers. And this vastrfrordfi of assisted paupers are help­ ing to keep down wages in America. These startling figures tell the story of the great benefits (?) to both Engihnd and America of British free trade. The London Pall Mall Gazette has succeeded in producing the greatest sensation ever created in England by. a newspaper. In May last -reports came to its proprietors that the rich revelers of the metropolis had in vogue a sys­ tem by which young girls were seduced into lives of prostitution to satisfy ' the depraved passions of these millionaire bummers. The Gazette at once hired a commission consisting of reporters, ministers aad lawyers to investigate. The commission labored earnestly and zealously for six weeks, and the Gazette owners expended over 515,000 in the search. The police were very wisely not consulted. To the surprise of. its projectors, the commission found the worst rumors that had been first reporttil were not half as bad as the facts. • Titled nobles, rich merchants and man­ ufactures were found to be guilty of the most hellish vileness. And best of all, the Gazette published the facta, and let daylight into the wanton acts of these aristocrats. The exposures have stirred England as never before, and the Gazette is sustained by the people in its efforts to suppress an awful and a growing vice. / Conscience Fuller, of Newago, the greenback manipulator for Michigan, says there will be no fushion of demo­ crats and greenbackers in this state un­ less the six democratic congressman from this state show by their votes in congress that they favor the greenback ideas of finance. He says each one is pledged to do this. Of course t here will be fushion under any and all circum­ stances and Fuller will eat his crow with the rest of the boys,if it is crow. But if fashion depended on the adopt­ ion of greenback principles by demo­ crats, there will be no fushion. President Cleveland, alarmed at the rapidity with which the heads of de­ partments were turning republicans cut of office and putting democrats in their places under the specious plea of “offensive partisanship," which means voting the republican ticket, has sent a circular to his subordinates stating that no more removals must be made until he has a chance to see the charges preferred against officials. This is a good stand to take, and the president evidently means business. Detroit’s policeman have a neat way of dodging the festive burglar, or the burglar dodges the policeman, it la yet an open question which Is true. Cer­ tain it is that some of the most daring -of robberies are almost daily committed in that city, and the burglars have as yet eluded the vigilance of the police. General Grant is steadily failing. The expected good effects from his re­ moval to Mt McGregor have failed to materialize as yet. He has finished his notes for his war history, and now calmly awaits the approaching end.

DAVID KKNNKDY’H FAVORITE REMEDY Minneapolis, Minn., July 18.—When ex-Mayor Rand, his family and a few friends, started out for an excursion In the litfle steam yacht Minnie Cook, yesterday afternoon, the cloud* hung dark and low. Friends tried to dissuade them from em­ barking. Mrs. Rand, as she stepped off the St Louis dock onto tire frail little craft with Its flapping tarpaulin shades, laughed at the remonstrances and replied gayly that she had braved worse weather on lake Minnetonka. Her two sons followed and took seats by her side. Tire yacht started’ off to the narrows, the intention be­ ing to visit the upper lake. It was scarcely out of sight before a terrible wlnd-stonn swept over the lake from the northwest Thunder followed in ntpld aud reverberat­ ing peals. The usually calm water rolled in hugh billows that came beating up over the boat-hmises and quays, and to com­ plete ttic disturbance the rain began to tall In torrents. It was tike a New En­ gland take squall, coming with no warning save the leaded clouds, and raging with blinding force for only a brief spell. . The huge passenger steamers whistled hoarsely as the rain clouds settled down, and high above the din could be heard the seemingly tragic shrieks from the whistles of the steam yachts, many of which were crossing from the St. Louis landing to the Lafayette pier when the hurricane struck them. 0 Although the storm only lasted a few mo­ ments, it is impossible at this hour to tell the extent of the loss of life and property. The first evidence of disaster wns found In pieces of trimming from tire Minnie Cook which floated in on tire waves at the east shore at Wayzatta Bay. The news was not slow in passing along the lake shore clear to Lafayette. Large, sturdy boats went in search of the Ill-fated little craft, but no further trace of her oould be had. It was at last determined that she sank and that the ten passengers, who embarked ou their perito^lourncy in such happy spirits, had MINOR NEWS ITEMS. uxrre, i a., hwfc was b Mxriuc swrox. accoenponied by thunder and lightning. 8er«» persons were mbre or less seriously shocked at Lowell, Mass., lightning ran into the tower 1n which all the telegraph and telephone wires were eoncentrated, salting it on fire and destroying tbe tele­ phone and telegraph system of the city.

THE DOLPHIN'S FATE. Washington', July 18.—Attorney-Gen­ eral Garland has rendered a decision on the three points relative to the acceptance of the Dolphin by the Government, submitted to him by Secretary Whitney. lie bolds that the vessel can not be accepted; that no contract exists between Mr. John Roach and the Government; and that the large sum of money paid to him for Ute ves­ sel may be recovered. The Dolphin not having been constructed In strict conformity to the act of Congress, the Attorney-General assumes that nothing short of an act of Congress oould authorize her acceptance. It the vessel is wanting la the necessary strength and stiffness, as re­ ported. the Attorney-General says the de­ fect fa fundamental, and sufficient to war­ rant her rejection. As to the third objec­ tion, because of the character ot the work­ manship, the Attorney-General says it can be dealt with by Secretary Whitney, pro­ vided the contractor fa willing and ready to make the vessel satisfactory. The At­ torney-General then says: •The large sums of money which have been paid Mr. Roach have passed into his hands without authority of law, and are held by liiua fci so much money hold and received to ths use of the United States, and may Ik- recov­ ered from him: and not only so. but the money thus paid him by officials bolding sfiduciary relation to tho Government having gone into the ship Dolphin, a oourt of inquiry will folio* It there, and for that purpose rn tertain a proceeding against the ship itself.1 Later a boatman named James Carroll, who bad miraculously succeeded in weath­ ering the tornado in a yawl, appeared on the Wayzatta Bay beach, dragging his min­ iature craf. after him. When he had recov­ ered sufficiently from hfa fright and ex­ haustion to speak coherently he told of having passed the Minnie Cook just before tho squall struck the bay. He thought the party had observed the danger, and was quite certain that Engineer McDonald had turned the yacht from her course Into the bay; the next moment hfa boat raised heaven­ ward, as if lifted out of the water by some superhuman agency, and then be w& en­ veloped in spray. Soon afterward he heard a shriek like that of a woman In acute dis­ tress, and looking off through the almost blinding mist to the spot where the yacht was a moment before floating, nothing was to be seen but the white c&j« and the waves rolling mountain high. He fa sure the shriek he heard was that at Mrs. Rand, and that the Minnie Cook at that moment Saturday’s games ended the first half of capsized..

Indi anapoun, Ind., July Itt—Word was received Wednesday night of the closing act of a sad domestic scandal at Howdei War­ rick County, a little hamlet thirteen miles from here. John Rogers, who keeps a general store, Was a staid married man with two children, a devoted wife and a happy home, when, about three weeks ago. Miss Emma Snell, cousin of Mrs. Kogers, a pretty school ■ teacher from tho rural dis­ tricts of Delaware County, come on to spend her summer vacation with them. Rogers lost his head and heart to his fair guest The intimacy ot th£\ two In a short time became very marked. Mrs. Rogera, unable to endure tire situation any longer, yesterday ordered Miss Snell to pack her baggage and leave. Rogers overheard the conversation, entered, and struck his wife to the floor, and then, in company with his guest, left the house, going to his store, halt a mile distant Tbo pair did not re­ turn until evening, when they found the house deserted. Rogers, fearing the worst, began to search, and found his wife lying face downward in the water-trough back of the- barn. In the barn were found die bodies of the children lying side by aide, and each with a gaping wound in its head.A bloody axe lay beside them, telling the story .of the horrible tragedy. Mrs. Rogers had evidently brooded'over her troubles all day, and finally, jnst before the time for Rogers to return home, bad taken tlie children to the barn and mur­ dered them, and then deliberately laid down in the water-trough and ended her sorrows. Kogers informed the neighbors of the occurrence, and left (istensibljfjor Booneville to find the Coroner, but up to a late hour he had not returned. Miss Snell is in a critical condition, the tragedy having completely prostrated her. New Yokk.

Notwithstanding Other Hearts May Ache and Bleed! “Who Struck Billy Patterson ?" We heard him squall. It must have hurt him. The fun has just begun. Some folks can’t stand competition, and they are surprised that people prefer Good Reliable Carriages, made near their home, and warranted for two years, paint and all, and Springs for ten years, to old style Cincin­ nati Quillwheels, sold wholesale three for $100. Strange, isn’t it ? People are getting on; that’s all; and they naturally look for the best, and the Spiral Spring gets there right along. Once people use it, they will have no other. The Spiral is alive and never forgets to spring. At Grand Rapids the Fourth of July the committee awarded the Spiral Spring Buggy the prize for the finest display. It is always thus. Always at the front. Always the best. When a man says he has discarded the Spring, you can bet it is the old story of the Fox and the Grapes: he can’t get them, that’s all. Now, whether you are going to buy . a Carriage or not, come and see us and look the Spiral over. It will do you good. In buying a Carriage look at it; try it, and pay no attention to the salesman’s rubbing and patting on the back. Wind is cheap, and “a man may smile and smile,” etc. The Spiral has mdt too many Whales to be scared at Sun Fish. Remember and place! Remember the Spiral, and remember we are in earnest, and always at home. Spiral Spring Buggy Co., DEXTER BARKER, Manager.

Fear of discovery, when she resorts to false hair and dyes, is a source of con­ stant anxiety to her. The very persons from whom she most desires to hide the waning of her charms are the ones most likely to make the discovery.

That bright woman, Gail Hamilton, speaking of the prohibitory movement as a third party issue, says: What po­ litical prohibition has thus far done may be summed up: By methods not only antagonistic, but quarrelsome, sometimes qven to the borders of scur­ rility, by misrepresentations that chari­ ty alone can attribute to misunder­ standing, it has shamed its own prophe­ cies, destroyed Its own harmony, deplet­ ed its own ranks, vitiated its own laws, defeated the party from which all pro­ hibitory legislation has come, enthroned the party by which all prohibitory leg­ islation has been opposed. This it can continue to do indefinitely; but no pro­ testation on the part of its leaders, and no delusion on the part of ita followers, can alter the fact that it is working in the interest of intemperance, and not in the interests of temperance. No intelli­ gent observer can fail to recognize its character and its tendency. If present prospects matendixe as ex­ pected, 1885 will be the beet agricultu­ ral year the south has ever known. Hon.

He once s*!d: “I have only just learned in my old age to use the wind instruments, and now that I do understand them I must leave the world.’’ He composed,so much that one would think he wrote quicklv, but such, was not tbe case. When an idea oc­ curred to him he would note it down in a little book that he always carried with him, and afterward he would work it orer with the greatest can:. He felt his genius was a gift from God which he must yse’for the good of others. ••God has given me talent,” he said, “and I thank Him for It. I think I have done my duty and have been of use in mv generation.” In wrif.ng for the piano­ forte. he paid great attent’«i to the melody, which renders his works equally interesting to young and old.'

Cursed with that v^gue and indefin­ ite something, called malaria, and liv­ ing in Lancaster, I’a,. the birthplace of Mishler’s Herb Bitten, Mr. Walter Kieffer, of the Daily New Era, resolved to investigate its curative powers, of which he had heard so much. He writes as follows: “Calling on Janies H. Marshall, Esq., at present and for twelve years past, postmaster of the city, I asked, “What do you know' about Mishler’s Herb Bitters?” “I know," was the answer, “that it is the most palatable bitters 1 have ever tak­ en, and as a tonic it has no equal.” That was encouraging, and the next peraon I met was Wm. A Morton, Esq. of ,the Lancaster Intelligencer. I ad­ dressed tbe same inquiry to him, and quick as tiaih came the answer. “I have used Mishler’s Herb Bitten, off and on, for ten yean, and have found it of great benefit. On one occasion suffer­ ing from severe prostration, it was Uie only thing to give me relief.” Stepping into the office of Hon. D. P. Rosenmiller, mayor of Lancaster I« repeated my query. “It is the l»est ton­ ic I have ever known, and 1 regard it as an infallible cure for malaria” smil­ ingly answered his Honor. “Mr. Steinheiser, what do vou know dCAlishler’s Herb Bitters?”’ I asked, addressing Mr. J. O. Steinheiser, now* Lnitcd State Mail Agent, and for eight years Superintendent of the Lancaster County Hospital and Insane Asylum. “Never hail a medicine in the hospital that acted so charmingly, and for chronic diseases it never fails to give relief.” Mr. Long, addressing a member of the firm of John F. Long’s Sons* drug house, the oldest drug house in the state if not in America, “What has been your experience with Mishler's Herb Bitters?'’ “We handle a great deal of it, and the demand is constantly on/the increase. I regard it as being, medically, the best bitters in the mar­ ket. People who buy it once invariably call for it ugian.” The next place visited was John R. Kauffman’s drug store. “How’s the Mishler’s Herb Bitters’ Aarket, Mr Kauffman?" “It never was better. W e sell a great deal of it in the city, but the bulk of our trade is from the rural districts—among old farmers who need a tonic, and among those living in malarial regions. One old genUeman from the country haa been coming for eight years, and aa we know about how long a bottle will last him we know iust when to expect him. It is a great bitters.” H. B. Cochran, another prominent druggist, was the nqjt peraon approach­ ed. “What has been your experience with Mishler’s Herb Bitters. ME Coch­ ran ?” “For steady sale it has no equal. It is chemically pure and medically strong. Lately the demand for Bed Label brand—that intended particular particular-­ ly for ladies—has greatly increased, and 1 know of noUiing more re popular or more effective for the weaknesses •eaknesses pe pe-­ culiar to the female sex.” Meeting Rev, J. G. Fritchie, an octo­ narian minister of the gospel on the street, 1 engaged him in conversation and re.narkjng on his great age and seeming good health, he said, to mvsurto Mishler s Herb Bitters; it hi the best friend I have, sustaining L>e in au moments of physi­ cal weakness, and if any one desires my tertimony you are at liberty to give them my iLn^, Let them addrAw me and I’ll tell tLein an about it.” But why multiply this home testimo­ ny?

It seems to me that we have too mnch libertv in this conhtry In ^orAe ways. We have more liberty than we have money. We guaratoo that rv«r hiaa in America shall fill himself up full of liberty at «mr expense, and thejeeg of an American he w the more liberty he can have.

He neeme to be to buy, paying his taxes all the time that be has very little time to -mingle in the giddy whirl with the alien. That is the reason thnt the alien who rules the United States on lhe “Linodted Mail and writes n book about before breakfast wonders why we are always in a hurry. That is the reason we re to throw our meals into oureelvea with a dull thud, and hardly have time to mn:nta n a warm personal friendship with our families. We do not care much for wealth, but we must have freedom, and freedom costs money. We have advertised to furnish a bunch of freedom to every man, woman or child who cornea to our shores» and we are going to deliver the goods, whether we have any left for ourselves or not. What would the Kiat world beyond the seas aay to u» omc day the blue-eyed Mormon, with his heart full of love for our female seminaries and our old women's homes, should land upon oyr coasts and find that we were using all the liberty our­ selves? What do wo want of liberty, anyhow? What could we do with it if we had it? It takes a man of leisure to enjoy liberty, and we have no leisure what­ ever. • It is a good thing to keep in the house “for the use of guests only,” but we don’t need it for ourselves. . ‘ Therefore. I am in favor of a statue of Liberty Enlightening the World, be­ cause it will show that we keep it on tap winter aud summer. We want tbe whole broad world to remember that when it gets tired of oppression it can oome'hera to America and oppress us. We are uaod to it. and we rather like it. If we don’t like it we can get on the steamer and go abroad, where we may visit the effete monarchies and have u high old time. ‘ The sight of the Goddess of Liberty standing there in New York Harbor' night and day. bathing her feet in tbe rippling sea.-will be a good thing.

New York, July 1st. 18M. In response to numerous inquires from- Jill sections of the country in re­ gard to the Personal Memoirs of U. S. Grant, we would say: The work will bo issued in two volumes to be published separately, about the first days of De­ cember and March next, respectively. It will be sold exclusively by sub­ scription ami will not be found at the book-stores after the active canvass has ceased, as in the case with rih^ny sul>scription books. Extraordinary pre­ caution is being taken to keep this book out of the book trade.’. Private marks are placed in each copy, and any agent detected iu supplying the first volume to the book stores will be at once dis­ charged, am! prosecuted- under his con­ tract; and the second volume will be delivered to tiie bona-fide subscribers by special deliverers appointed by us. Some unprincipled book sellers, whp cannot obtain the work, are advertising it for sale JjtntV/t’a attempting to rob General GWint or a portion the of his hard earned profits, by refeeing price and diwoui^ngonr c „ing our agents This agents Inis is is simply simph mischievous mischievous aud Intended to embarass our agents and the subscription trade. In tiie end it can result in no profit to them. Other scheming publishers are adver­ tising works whose titles are so ingen­ iously arranged as to resemble General Grant’s Memoirs, purposely withhold­ ing the author’s name, and in various ways imitating that work with the evi­ dent intention of deceiving the public and inducing them to purchase a book that they do not want—a work with which General Grant haa had nothing to do, and from which he derives no benefit whatever, and which works have little more value then the paper upon which they are printed, buch tmorincipled publishers and, dealers de­ serve the execration ot IhVir countrjmen. They seek to snatch the budding fruit of hard earned toil from the man, who, above all living men, has done so much for his countrymen, and who has worked so long and patiently. trying circumstances, in a last effort to supply a competence in his declining toy- ror bim^r nd A™Uy-tb« Tne only two great nations which ‘contain enough horses within their borders to meet all the exigencies of war dr of peace are. unquestionably Russia and the United States.

Tills amazing empire, sparsely , oetmtiiecl by human beings, when its prod'giuus bulk is borne in mind, boasts iMMsession of more burses than any Otlieg nation on tiie face of the globe. General Sir Robert Wilson, who was British Commissioner at the head­ quarters of the Russian army during the Mosqpw campaign of 1812. tells u« that no troops in the world are better mounted or can defend ground better than the. Russian regulars. “Their artillery,’’ he adds, "is so well horsed and so- nimbly and handily worked that it bowls over nil irregular­ ities of surface with an ease, light­ ness anti velocity which give it’ u great superiority. The vivacity and alertness of tiie cavalry and the unqunUing steadiness of their infantry ipnke it a pleasure to command them in extremist difiicult'es: for, as in the case with the British soldier, the most un­ bounded confidence may be reposed—to Use Jtsailor's expression—in their answer to tiie helm, in every stress of situnlion ami under the greatest trials,” From the same source we learn that the First Napoleon had witnessed with admira­ tion the unyielding valor of the Russian soldier under circumstances the most unpropitious for its display, and had reoognizetl qualities and propensities which render Russian armies, when prop erly organized, pre-eminent in the field. "He hud became acquainted with the no less resolute character of the Russian peasantry, and hat! found nothing want­ ing whicn art and discipline might not supply for the construction of a military forcefn the most extensive, efficient, and cconom'cal basis.” At that time the Kussiohaoldiar spny was not more than twelve shillings per annum, and his only ration in time of ncoce was water and rye bread baked like biscuit.

There is no more fatal, error than that which arises from underrating an enemy's strength—an error which the history of the past shows that, of all others, this country is the most apt te commit. Turning’ to the United States, we find that not less than eleven million head of excellent, horses is contu:n<'d within the broad Emits of the Un'oh—a stock tip<»n which, in corabinat on with.the equine resources of the Dominion of Canada, it is probable the war department of this country vtill have to draw largely in tli» event of a protracted, war with snch a power as that wielded by Russia.—London Tele- the book' The above prices will be given on Clothing for 30 days only, in order to reduce stock preparatory to purchasing fall goods.

GRAND RAPIDS. Mint; fl �Additional Local. There was a large attendance st the Good Templars' picnic at Thornapple Lake Saturday afternoon. Although an extra coach was attached to the train, it was so crowded that several could not get aboard, and were obliged to remain at home. The various lodges of the county were represented. Farmers in this county have had a great deal of trouble in successfully running binders this season, on account of the extreme heaviness of the wheat 'and it being badly lodged. Experts sent by the companies for that purpose have been running many of the har­ vesters this week. All concerned have the consolation of knowing that wheat is not ao difficult to harvest every year. • In speaking of Baldwin, the Detroit Post of a recent date says: “The De­ troit* put In 'Lady’ Baldwin to pitch, and he proved to be an enigma to the Philadelphia^. Their batsmen could do absolutely nothing with his puzzling left-handed curves, and five scattering hit* were all they could secure off him? The Boston Record says that “the pitchers’ records to date show that Baldwin of Detroit is leading, having only five singles, seven totals made off him per game.” The Hastings nine is in danger of ' disruption, all l>ecause of the prospec­ tive game with the Cincinnati ladies club. Large premiums are offered for places in the home club by parties who have never before manifested an inter­ est in Base ball. The girls are said to be veritable “Grace Darlings,” and the hearts of Hastings mashers will be very likely to be jostled badly next week Friday. Erv. Whitlock and Squire Kenaston are rivals for opportunities to smile on the fair ones. Had it not been for A. D. Maynard, there might have been a serious run­ away upon our streets this morning. Rev. Pillsbury’s team stood in front of Schantz store, the Rev. standing on the ground, lines in hand, when the team turned around, pulling him along by the lines. After the horses were head­ ed east, they commenced to run, jerking away froni the driver, when Mr. May­ nard leaped from his dray, catching the runaway team by the bits, stopping them in the most approved style. It would materially improv* the looks, and the expense to the etty of keeping up our wide roads would be lessened by a great amount. Take Broadway and Main streets (except business squares) tor instance, the gutters are stuck quite near the walk, giving an unsight­ ly appearance. So wide a roadway is useless and is in no way ornamental. The road commissioners have a great deal to do, and of course with the an­ nually changing of officers it is impossi­ ble to ever arrive at a good system of Report of school district No. 6, Bal­ street ornamentation for, as in s0me years that I have noticed, our street timore: commissioners have carefully protected natural freqs in the more distant streets while others have wantonly felled them. It seems that we should have an organization of our citizens forming a committee for ornamentation and beau­ tifying our stroeta, and that they should Frank Thatcher..

If there be a happier family in the state than that of Mr. John Reuter, tbe Banner would like to hear from them. Upon being released from custody, Alfred Parady told his brother, -Post­ master Parady, that the prisoners in the Barry county jail had in their pos­ session wooden models of the keys of the jail and also that they had manu­ factured saws with which to release themselves. He requested his brother to inform the sheriff, which he did That officer at once started for home and according to an account published by a contemporary and doubtless fur­ nished by the sheriff, the prisoners de­ nied all knowledge of any such articles mentioned by Parady, whereupon the sheriff Hew into a towering passion, ap­ parently, which so frightened the pris­ oners that one Hopkins squealed. Now comes the meat: Our contemporary, also doubtless at the suggestion of the sheriff, draws the inference that the prisoners gained a knowledge of tho form of the keys at an earlier date when confined there; that is, during the administration of either ex-sheriffs Houghtalin or Creasy. The fact is that but a day or two previous a thick­ headed officer let the prisoners take the keys at different times. This in the presence of a witness whose word is unimpeachable. Wonder how the prisoners got the form of the keys? Barry county is to be congratulated upon having an official whose feigned wrath strikes abject terror to the heart of the beholder. He must be a perf ect paralyzer to all evil doers, if he Is prop­ erly represented In the Jourfial. Mr. John Bessmer has established a weather signal station, receiving advic­ es from Grand Haven as to the ap­ proach of cold waves from 34 to 36 hours in advance of their striking here.

While Henry Witney was visiting at his father’s in Rutland, some two weeks since, his horse was accidently fed from a pall containing parts green, various remedies were tried without effect, the horse lingered in great agonv until last week and died.

Orwick, of Orange, delivered one of the * most practical temperance speeches ever delivered in the town. He has evident­ ly been studying the subject from a practical standpoint. Thejoung chap who slept peacefully his drunken sleep on the south side of Thatcher street last Saturday night, can find his hat by enquiring of parties liv­ ing east of the spot where he retired. Woodland has a genuine dynamiter, but differing fjpm the Irish dynamiter in that he is not considered a danger­ ous citizen. Our officials instead of being criticis­ ed for arresting a suspicious character and causing him to be sent up. ought rather to have the hearty support of all law abiding citizens.

No one being willing to volunteer to bury the animal, the clerk was compelled to pay 82 to a man to do the job. Now comes the smart Alecks and threaten the clerk with political death for being bq reckless with, the township funds. Perhaps it might have saved cost to the town if the clerk had taken a day’s time to call the board together, and each of the board to draw a days wages. The owner of the building was unpat­ riotic enough to insist on the dog being removed the same dav it was shot. BUTUND. The heated term contihues. Mercury * wav up among the 90ies. • And dry, too.

The morning had passed five min­ utes beyond eight o’clock, and tiiere was not one of tl»e strained and waiting watch­ ers but who could mark ths nearnews o£tbe life Ude tn ita final ebbing. Dr. Dougina noted the Bearnews of the supreme moment, and quietly approaclied the bedside and bent about It, and. while he did sp, the sorrow of the gray-haired phy­ sician seeined closely allied wlU> that of the family. Dr. Shrady also drew near. It was seven minutes after eight o’clock, and tbe eyes of Uie General were closed. His breathing grew mote hushed as the last functions of toe heart and lungs were hastened to the dosing of the ex-President's life. A peaceful expression seemed to be deepening in Uie firm and strong-lined face, and it was reflected as a closing comfort in toe aad hearts that beat quickly under theatres* of loving suspense. A minute drew a deeper breath. There was an ex­ halation like that ot one relieved of long and anxious tensiotu The members of the group were impelled each a step nearer the b-d. and each waited to note die next respiration, but It did not come; then—It never came. There was absolute stillness in the room and a bush of expectancy, so that no sound broke the silence save Uie singing ot birds In the pine* outside the cottage and .toe measured throbbing ot the engine that all night bad waited by the little mountain depot down the slope. " It Is all over," quietly spoke Dr./Doug­ las. and there came then heavily, to each witness the realization that General Grant was dead. Then toe doctors withdrew, the nurse closed the eyelidK and composed the dead General’s head, after which each of tbe fam­ ily group pressed to the bedside, one after the other, and touched their lips upon the quiet face so lately stilled. Soon afteV Drs. Douglas and Shrady left the death-bed, they conversed feelingly of toe latter hours of General Grants's Hie.

RABIES. Description of the Death of a Mad Dog’s Victim. The Venom Lying Dormant for About a Month—Horrible Far ixyams of Palu for Two Day*—Prcnllnrltleo of the Disease. John Toelle was an honest, industri­ ous and respectable man ot about thirtyfive years of age. of fine habits and traits, living on a twenty-acre tract of prop­ erty just east of Kansas City, from which ho derived a support for himself, wife and children. For the pleasure of his children the father, some three years ago, procured a fine Newfoundland dog. the instrument of bis death, then but a pup The animal was always kind and affectionate, and seemed never prouder than when serving as a pony for his lit­ tle masters. A STRUGGLE WITH A MAD BRUTE. It was May 6 that Mr. Toelle had the disastrous struggle with the pet of his children. For several days prior tho dog had been missed from the nous'for quite a while at a time, and when he re­ turned he was indifferent, cross and snappish. On one occasion he toqk the babe’s entire hand in his mouth, merely leaving the print of his teeth, but causing no abrasion of the skin. Again he seized an elder child by the arm. but his teeth did not penetrate the skin. These freaks caused alarm, and the animal was se­ cured nnd tied. But Mr. Toelle ac­ counted for the sudden savageness of the dog on the theory that the animal had been killing sheep, aud the fresh blood had affected him. The morning of Lhe fatal day the dog freed himself, and was seen jogging slowly across the field. HU victim ordered his employe to go niter the dog, but that party, whose apprehensions had been aroused, refused, and Toelle himself deserted his work and went in pursuit of the rabid nnimal. I had from his own lips the details*of his adventure. He passed down into a light piece of timber out of sight of the neighboring houses, and overtook the dog as the animal paused at. the edge of n stream of flowing.water. Toelle walked near to him, and his fears being now aroused, though not the least suspicious of rabies, he stepped behind a large tree, and for a short in­ terval was impressed with thq| peculiar look and behavior of the dog. The latter turned ’from the stream and walked leisurely toward the tree behind which his master stood. Then Toelle spoke to the animal in a tone of com­ mand. and. not being noticed^ took up a stick and advanced to where the dog had paused, when the powerful brute made for his throat. There was at once a tenacious closing of the dog’s jaws over the left hand of the now terrified man, and the terrible struggle began. After “wrenching aud choking, tbe hand was extricated, lace­ rated and blooding; but instantly the other hand was caught and most'fear­ fully torn before the effort* to free it were successful. Toelle was a man of great strength, which by desperation must have been increased, and, obtain­ ing a neck-hold on dog. threw him to tbe ground. Noz one had vet ap­ peared at the desperate' fight. The man was' now on top of the dog. violently endeavoring to keep him down. Sec­ onds must nave been as minutes, and I could not learn with any definiteness how long the battle lasted. But be­ fore the man was exhausted, and while he still was on the dog. by chance a neighbor cwme near, and. comprehend­ ing tlie situat on atjonce. ran to his house, procured his gnu. and. return­ ing to the scene, shot the dog to death while Tomin continued to bold on. FEARING HYDROPHOBIA. Toelle was now apprehensive of rab­ ies. He hurried to his house and gave orders.for hi* horse. His .workteam misunderstanding him, himself took the hone and rode rapidly to town for a physician. The wounded man went at onoe to a neighbor’s and asked for a horse, recounting his adventure, and insisted that he wanted and must have medical aid at once. Tlie neighbor made light of the man’s fears of hydro­ phobia, and absolutely refused to loan iu* horse, Toelle was forced to remain at home and await the coming of tbe physician. When that gentleman came, after much delay, he simplv cauterised the wounds of bis patient, and. though being informed fully as to tbe changed nature of tbe dog. hta strange freak* and aotioas, persistently assured Toelle and his family that there was no cause to tear hydrophobia. A week pained away and the wounds were rapidly healing, and at the end of two weeks Toelle was as well and pursuing hi? labors as n*ual. What watt tbe condition of tbe man’s mind now? I believe from the moment he had the terrible struggle witji the dog he felt convinced that the animal was experiencing rabies. His friends argued with him at length, endeavoring' to re­ lieve him of the gnawing apprehension that possessed him. He asked me the evening of the 6th what I thought as to the dog being Ail- 1 answered him encouragingly, having known the dog for a long time. 1 was convinced that there had been a metamorphosis of his nature and disposition, and my fears of rabies were very strong.' I urged every remedy, every prevention, including the use of the mad-stone; for, if the story of superstition, if you choose to term it., should not be confirmed when the stone should be appl ed. there might at least. comA respite to the poor man 's troubled mind. A medical work containing a chapter on hydro­ phobia was obtained and studiously read by him; and be constantly showed that he was in distressing despair, antedating the miseries that were to fall on him. * THE DISEASE COMES OM. No premonitory symptoms were felt, however, until Thursday, May 28, when be complained of darting pains from his hands to his- arms, and an itching and dull sensation about the places so fearfully lacerated. But these passed away. Monday, June 1, he rode to town with a neighbor and frequently caught and rubbed his hands and arms, complaining of darting pains that went 'from his hands up his arms and met between his shoulders. He also said he felt chilly and remarked that heMlieved > that be was going to have a chill. Keturning home he wont up-stairs and lay down. Soipe time passed, and his wife, going to tbe foot of the stairs, called to him several times without a response. I She ascended the stairs and entered the room. Toelle rose to a sitting posture and turned his back on her. She crossed the r<x>m and found him crying bitterly with his face buried in his hands. Hi? only reply to her question was: “I feel that awful disease creeping over me. 1 know I am going mad aud shall die.” The day dragged on; the body was not in pain? but for tbe mind the gloom oi night was oome—a hopeless darkness had settled there. He retired with the others of his household. The coming of Tuesday morning. June . 2, ushered in the twenty-seventh day counting from, the time of the fearful entkiuntor with the dog. At three o’clock of that morning the deceased hwoke in a st niggle for breath and called for a drink. When his eyes fell on the water handed him he instantly threw up hi« hands with the exclamation.- “ForGod’l sake, take it away!” Ho became com­ posed in a moment or so and rested fairly well unt 1 he arose. He com[ilained considerably and vomited free y. The phrs'o'an was sent for and came in the forenoon. He was puzzled. He said but little of anything, and noth­ ing that was definite..

Two years guarantee on the Spiral Carriage complete, pamt and everything, and ten years on the Spring, “knocks their eye out.” ' " ' ' ■ And we will give $1,000.00 Cash to see the man that will say we did not make our guarantee good. The medicine we give competitors is hard to take. Livery Bills are Heavy Believe in Sharing our Profits with the Public. But to a Crank who never patronizes a livery stable or hotel in his town the expense seems awful. Remember we are leading our money with you. “Live and let live,” is our motto. We are satisfied. The liverymen are satisfied, and buy the Spiral. 1 he hotel men are sa isfied. Why should the Crank mourn? Because we make him “tired,” that’s all! The Spiral Spring Carriage, with its hne finis and trimming, easy riding qualities and elegant appearance, pleases eveiybody but the Crank. Our Spiral Spring is tested and found just what is wanted by everybody; and three years test proves it the best. But the Crank says it is New-Fangled. When Electric Light was discovered, the Crank said it was New-Fangled! When the Telephone came out, the Crank said it was New­ Fangled! When the Printing Press was first invented, Cranks yelled New-Fangled! But those same Cranks were after a time convinced and said they are good, and so it will be with the Spiral. Even Cranks can be convinced. When the moon is right, and after everybody else is convinced, they come over. • o When any one tells yon he does not like the Spiral, 1 He Lies. When anyone tells you the Spiral Spring Buggy Co. is not responsible for all they prom­ ise, “He Lies." When any one tells you the Spiral Spring Buggy Co ate adventurers, He Lies. When any one tells you the Spiral is a fraud, “He Lies.” When any one tells you there is an easier spring in the world, “He Lies.” ' When any one tells you he dare test his carriage with a Spiral, “He Lies." ■ ' ' ■ . • • Billy Patterson, put the above in your pipe and smoke them! < CRANK’S PICTURE.

He holds your hand and fawns and chats; Of praise he hath no lack; Asks of your children dear, [MinAs irate.] While he pits you on the back. He gives you volumes of what to do: Of fine carriages he will put you on track. Yet he is trying to sell you a Quill Wheel, While he pats.you on the back. .

The Messer Bros, are residents of the county. They deal in reliable goods, and guarantee them just as represented. Remember, our guarantee amounts to something. Our Carriages WILL WEAR. In a year or two they will not make as much noise on the road as a grain seperator. . ‘ • Messer Bros, wish it understood that while they are selling first class carriages for cash or on time they have no farmer’s notes for sale.

Arrested for Attempted Wife- Wte Oat Bolts, 19 iichsLoit Also White Oak, Hick­ ory & Rock Elm logs. CASTOR IA Infants and Children, Poisoning.—Saturday afternoon Will­ iam J. Carveth, of this city, was arrest­ ed. charged with the horrible crime of attempting to murder his wife by mix­ ing strychnine with medicines which he gave her, or which he expected her at­ tendants would administer. The com­ plaint is made by Jesse II. Sage, of Co­ burg, Ontario, a sister of Mrs. Carveth, and who for some time has been the latter’s faithful nurse. Mrs. Carveth has been sick for sev­ eral months, and her ailments had been of such a nature as to l>affie the skill of her physicians—of whom six different ones had been called by her husband. Last spring she went with her husband to John Fuller’s, iu Carlton, to eat warm sugar. While there she was taken ill. Her husband ordered medi­ cal aid, and usually sat by her bedside from Saturday night until the succeed­ ing Monday. It is alleged as a strange feature of her case that she was usually much worse after having received the care of her husband. Often her life was despaired ot. The seeming indiffer­ ence with which he mentioned her ex­ pected death caused many to think him not overly anxious for her recovery. But no one voiced a suspicion that he was in any way to blame for her ail­ ments. .After ten weeks at Mr. Fuller’s, during which she lingered ibetween life and death, and when she was somewhat improved in health, she was brought to her home in this city. Two orthree times again- the perplexing symptoms appeared, but she rallied from tbe sink­ ing spells, but failed to gain much strength. Her sister was summoned from Canada, and thenceforth became her almost constant attendant. Her brother, too, was afterward culled. Dr. Woodmansee had the case in charge. His careful diagnosis of the case, to­ gether with Carveth’s suspicious ac­ tions which had been previously noted by Miss Sage, led to an examination of the medicines by the Dr., who was thoroughly convinced that strychnine had been mixed with them. The medi­ cines, also some water, suspected of having strychnine in it, were sent to Dr. Vaughn, of the- Michigan University for a thorough chemical analysis. Dr. Vaughn stated that strychnine in con­ siderable quantities was present in all. Officer Niras and Prosecutor Colgrove had made, other needful investigations, and when the result of the chemical an­ alysis was reported from Ann Arbor, warrants were issued and Carveth promptly arrested. He was brought before Esq. Kenaston, pleaded “not guilty,” and his examination was fixed for August 13th. Carveth most emphatically denies the charges made against him. He is said to admit that he had strychnine, but to claim that he used it for a medicine with which he washed his horse’s limb. Carveth is a Canadian by birth, and has resided here for the past five years. He is a skillful workman at his trade, blacksmith, had worked bard and ac­ cumulated some property. His appear­ ance is not altogether prepossessing. Mrs. Carveth is an exemplary woman, of more than ordinary intelligence, and has won many friends by her kindly, womanly wavs. She has the sincere sympathy of the community. We are pleased to say that her prospects for re­ covery are improving now. that tlie poisonous mixtures have been kept from her. She is in good bands, and will receive all the aid that proper medicines and good nursing can give. There are other matters bearing upon the case as to tlie motives that might impel Carveth to the commission of al­ leged crime. But the facts will be fully shown at the trial, and Wf have no wish to go further intd the merits of tho case, and no desire to create prejudice Shim. We cannot refrain from complimenting those who so _ „ and skillfuly worked up the case. The two officers we have named had been thoroughly sitting it for two weeks before the arrest.

Two years guarantee on the Spiral Carriage complete, paint and everyt ing, and ten years on the Spring, “knocks their eye out” And we will give $1,000.00 Cash to see the man that will say we did not make our guarantee good. The medicine we give competitors is hard to take. ivery Bills are Heavy J£D<Z>. We Believe in Sharing our Profits with the Public. But to a Crank who never patronizes a livery stable or hotel in his town the expense seems awful. Remember we are leaving our money with you. “Live and let live,” is our motto. W&are satisfied. The liverymen are satisfied, and buy the Spiral. The hotel men are sat­ isfied. Why should the Crank mourn? Because we make him “tired,”, that’s all! The Spiral Spring Carriage, with its fine finish and trimming, easy riding qualities and elegant appearance, pleases everybody but the Crank. Our Spiral Spring is tested and found iust what is Wanted by everybody; and three years test proves it the best. But the Crank says it is New-Fangled. When Electric Light was discovered, the Crank said it was New-Fangled! When the Telephony came out, the Crank said it was New- . Fangled! When the Printing Press was first invented, Cranks yelled New-Fangled! But those same Cranks were after a time convinced and said they are good, and so it will be with the Spiral. Even Cranks can be convinced. When the moon is right, and after everybody else is convinced, they come over. < When any one tells you the Spiral is a fraud, “He Lies." When any one tells you there is an easier spring in the world, “He Lies." When any one tells you he dare test his carriage with a Spiral, “He Lies.” । When any one tells you he does not like the Spiral, “He Lies. When any one tells you the Spiral Spring Buggy Co. is not responsible for all they prom­ ise, “He Lies.” • When any one tells you the Spiral Spring Buggy Co are adventurers, “He Lies.’ Billy Patterson, put the above in your pipe and smoke them I There is a certain type of man we meet, As we wander along life's track, Who always smilingly doth greet And pats you on the back. He holds your hand and fawns and chats; Of praise he hath ho lack; Asks of your children dear, [thinks brats.] While he pats you on the back. • He gives you volumes of what to do; Of fine carriages he will put yon on track. Yet he is trying to sell you a Quill Wheel, While he pats you on the back. Beware of the flattering and fawning Crank When he tells you the Spirals are not the best For you can bet he is running them down And trying to feather hie own nest! Still at the BRICK BARN ON MAIN STRUHTT. Still Helling more Carriages than all in town put together. Always happy and glad. Still spending our money freely, and glad to have it to spend.

Mount MacGregor, N. Y„ Aug. 5.— On the mountain brow, by the eastern lookout, a gun boomed aallenly at four o'clock yesterday morning. The shock of tbs reverberations wm yet on the heavy air when a second report shook the earth and atartled the birds In the trees. The artillery­ men had begun firing thirteen guns to mark the sunrise of General Grant’s last day upon the mountain, and at abort intervals the guns were tired. Monday night, the family, In a group and alone, had taken their final farewell of the remains of the dead General. At half-post eight o’clock, tho doors of tiie Grant cottage were tlirown open and a fifteam of visitors poured In steadily for over an hour. At »:30, a train of two cars brought General Hancock and a number of distinguished visitors. Two companies of regulars were drawn up to receive them. They proceeded from the station to the cottage In the followitg | order. General Hancock and Colonel Jones; Ad­ miral Rowan and General Sherman; Senator Evarts and General Rufus lugalls; Senator Miller and James W. Drexel; Gen­ eral Hancock’ staff; Miss Drexel, her aunt anil cousin, dressed in deep mnurnlng. On tiie same train came the Loyal Legion, under Past Assistant Paymaster Gilbert A. Robinson, Brevet Brigadier GeneraTChurles ’ A. Carleton, Paymaster George De Forest Barton, Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel Floyd Clarkton, Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel Au­ gust McClark mid Captain Edmund Blunt. Al ten o’clock Mrs. Grant and her chil­ dren and grandchildren came down to tho parlor and took seats about the casket.. They were accompanied by Mis. Corbin and Mrs. Cramer, sisters or General Grant; Mr. Cramer, Mr. Dent, a brother of Mrs. Grant, • who was' accompanied by his wife; Simpson Grant, a son of Or­ Ville Grant, a brother of tiie General; Pay master Sharpe, U. & A., and Mrs. Sharpe, Mrs. Grant’s sister. Mrs. Grant took a seat Inside the ■ parlor, but near die door. Ou the plazxa sat Bishop Havens, General' Sherman. General Hancock and; surf, the pall-bearors, Mr. Camp, the Brooklyn chorister, ex-Poslmaster-GeTieral Creswell and wife. ex-Secretary of State Fish and wife. Dr. and Mra.

The veterans of the Grand Army jiosts who liad been acting a*' a guard of honor about tiie casket and or the piazza withdrew, and the sentinels out­ side were also withdrawn lor the most part. There were over a thousand peruoiui gathered on the outside of the cottage. The exercises opened with the reading of the ninetieth psalm by Rev. Dr. Agnew, of Pitiladelphia. Rev. Bishop Harris offered a prayer, and tiie hymn "My Faith Ix»oks Up to Thee" was sung by the gatheriidpbf people who came about the cotttiga The funeral sermon was preached by Rev. ;-jl>r. Newman, General Grunt's old pastnr. lie took for his text the words from the Gospel of SL Matthew, clnpter xxv., verse . 21: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant; enter Ilion into the joy of thy Lord.” Dr. Newman's discourse was long, occupying about an hour and a half in de­ livery. . At the conaluKton of the discourse the iioble hymn, “Nearer my God to Thee.” . was rendered very. Impressively by. the con­ ' gregatlon. The services ended with the bemxlictlon. After the services endLd, there was a movement of the people toward the cottage to get a flnaiXook at the corjipe, but It was not deemed advisable to admit any one, In view of the fact that It was ' Dear the time far the funeral train to start General Sherman, General Hancock and Senator Evarts left the balcony together. '1 he body was borne to the little station. Where the funeral-car, covered with black and its platforms painted blabk, had been detached from tiie remainder of tiie train behind It. In tiie funeral car the U. S. GrantJ’ost mounted guard at the casket Th© draped car was backed to tiie six passenger coaches comprising Um rust of Che train behind It, and the mourners, Gen­ eral Sherman, General Hancock- and staff, tiie.regular tnarps, the members of the G. A. It, tiie newspaper mem and others who Were -privileged to acconi|Muiy tiie remains, topic their beats. The signal was given at once, and amid the roar of artillery the fluoral train moved with its burden from Mount MacGregor. Wending its way slowly down the mountain it passed quite a gathering of fanning people al Wilton, and as it approached Saratoga the w histle was sounded three times os a signal for the ar­ tillery men to begin tlndr salute. In a mo­ rnent the guns at Saratoga were heard, and shortly after tiie train reached the spot. Alhaxy, N. Y_ Aug. a.—The funeral train reached this cltr at '1:45 p. tn. Tuesday. Aloany, N. Y.. Aug. a.—The files of people which began passing the remains of General Grant In the Senate corridor at the Capitol, when the doors were first thrown open Tues­ day afternoon, had-not diminished at mid­ night The solid tide of Visitors entering from Washington avenue split at the loot of the casket, and in two files streamed out through the State Street portals until one o'clock yesterday morning. Blfownrs fell, but the throng had been maintained wituout diminution. After one oc.'oak the crowds lessened, and at two o'clock the guards on OutJ' hytho ob ffl n began to relax and stand at ease. The remains were reviewed In Albany by , ,.'.*00 persons. train Wednesday was us orderly as a congrega­ tion in a church. The police hold an open MHtoe about the exit on the Vanderbilt avcnun side, and within a few minutes aftt-t the train drew into the station the body was borne to the car to which ■twelve black bones were attached and Pteeed upon'.. > The regular troops formed a spec'al guard, and within live minutes after the arrival ot the train tlio procession was in motion. First came the platoon of police, then General Hau coftlt and stuff mounted. At mx o'clock the funeral car had reached Waverly Place. into which it turned and I*-*”* ,o Broadway.

Every train on the big bridge brought recruits who scurried acroe Chatham and Center streets to the point where the loose crowd was being merged into a solid procearion. At the same relative hours yesterday there were thousands more in Use stream than Thursday, and the fact was due to the belief and experi­ ence that the early ones had on Thurad ay the least time to wait. Bo it was that the early down-town car* between five and six o'clock brought hundreds of ladies and gentle­ men who had thought to be In advance of the great, crowd. The City Hall clock marked 5:55 o'clock when Junior Vloe-Cotumander Cranston, of the U. 8. Grant Post, lifted the covers from the casket, jouired h.s handkerchief over the glass plate and then as­ sumed ids place at the head of his detail of Grand Army men.

After fifteen minutes the entire line was step­ ping, Stepping, Stopping tram away above Chambers street- At noon the Im© had ex­ tended up 11 roadway above Leonard street, and up to that hour 86.0QU persons had visited th© remains. . Mid-day passed and there was no diminu­ tion of th© constant trail of people so anrtoys to nee the almost unrecognizable face of the dead General. At one o'clock the Hue reached Broadway to a point near Canal street.' The Udo was flowing past the rcmalus ut about one hundred per minute, as on Thursday, and at two o'clock nearly fifty thousand persons hud viewed the body since the gates were opened, at six o'clock yesterday morning. In the evenlngtbo crowd of visitors to the City Hail rather increased than diminished. The people seemed to realize that but a few hours remained in which they would have an opportunity to see the features ot the man who for twentr-five years bad played so 1mKriant a port In the history of their country. e lino oi writing people grew larger and longer, and more and more policemen were added to tne cordon which stretched along tiie tine to keep the marchers in order. The scenes and incidents were constantly repeated which hnvri become so familiar to the watchers by the casket. Tne number of Chinamen in native costume in the procession of sight-seers evoked con­ siderable comment during the day. All Mott street seemed to have di-u-rndntxl to sue the body, and the mild-eyed Mongolians were not so slow as some of their wmtd brethren in respectfully removing their hats as they reached the bier. The couut of the guards showed that the total procession of people past Ute eofflu during the day .up to the final closing of the gute was H8,<X»i. This, added to the totals of flfljiOUon Wednesday and liMJOU on Thursday, make-, an aimj of 417.DU0 people that, swept by the catafalque to take a lust look ut Um dead hero. When Undertaker Merritt's son screwed down the lip of U.e casket he said that, us none of the Grant family bud usked to look at thu face agnlti. the lid would never again be re­ moved unless the family requested it. A critical view of the features of the dead General showed unmistakable rignsof decom­ position having set in. Hie change since Wed­ nesday is particularly noticeable. It is a mat­ ter of regret that nothing was done by the embalmers yesterday morning, during the four hours the public were exempted from viewing the body, to further preserve the re­ mains from visible signs of deca}-. Few persons who had knpwu General Grant In life would recognize the features of the dead man now lying in state as bis. The face is very white.—white even to ghastliness,—ex. cept around tbe'eyes, where there is discolor­ ation that all the art of the em­ balmer can not entirely obliterate. Per­ haps the ghastliness is partially due to Urn glare of the electric lights, and partly the re­ sult of the copious use of marble dust, which Is frequently dusted over the skin. The posi­ tion of the body has not been disturbed. The right hand la folded over the loft where the gold wedding ring rests op the Hale finger. The pinched nose looks aquiline. The faded beard partially fills out the depressed ebooks. The sunken eyes are closed and the lips are slightly parted, as if just about to open and speak. Notable above ail else Is the square forehead, made more prominent by death. This iff the most noble line of th© face, and gives to it a measure of majesty and an immeasurable calm. x. People from every section of the Union are hero.

New YORK, Aug. 10.—New York and its thousand* of visitors were astir with the Kcrows and the sun Saturday morning jrybody went to bed nntlcipoi ng tbegreat earadc on the occasion of General Grant s urlal. and everybody roused himself when the chimes of Trinity or the brazen voice of St. Paul's disturbed his dreams.

The last soene there was ended. The weather wm all that couid 1h- desired. Tho sky was clear, the sun shone brightly, •nd a cool breeze was blowing. Every available position from which a view of General Grant's funeral could be hod wm sold at a high figure. Ail along the route, of the procession windows and doorways brought big prices. Several firms oa Broadway let the fronts of the is bulk!ihgs to speculators. Nearly all the ho­ tels rented their front rooms at an ad­ vance on the regular price.

At half past .eight o'clock Colonel Hodja i summoned the pall-bearers to tbelr carriages- Tiie Prealaent's car­ riage. drawn by six bones, wm culled up to the door next, but it had fully an hour to wait. The President had signified bis inten­ tion of riding with Secretary Bayard. He was ut the time, having finished his breakfast, quietly conversing in his parlors, on the third floor, with ex-Governors Cornell and Robin­ son, who had called. The Grant family were quietly gathered In their parlors overlooking the square, end strangers were rigidly excluded from their rooms. Mrs. Grant had not arrived and it was announced that she would not attend the funeral but hod concluded ot stay at Mount MacGregor. dhe was reported by , Dr. J ewman to be still weak and JU. though not confined to her bed. At 9:31 o'clock President Cleveland called his Cabinet together and arrangetnenu were made for the order la which they were to leave the hotel to tuke their place id the pro­ cession. The hands on tho clock in front of the hotel pointed to five minutes after tun o'clock when General Hancock and General Staler rode under its windows at the bead of the proeesiJon. The sun was reflected from the insze of glittering gold on the uniforms of their staff as it trooped on behind, followed by. the regulars, who, in passing, reversed arms, while the band* played mournful dirges. Along the line o', the avenue whore tho troops of the Fin-; Division. National Guard, were drawn up, guns were ahoulderctl us the General .pasMid.

The gteut silent throng watched it go by from nnt-u and squares, frorti window^ housetops, bal­ conies and porches, that seemed hanging In the air, so daringly had they been thrust for­ ward front the buildings by sight-seers anx­ ious uot to lulus the memorable show. There «iuuot a loot of spun) ground anywhere in sigbL and how the police made wav for the carriages, tiie military and the marching thousands in citizens' dress, seemed iuOoinprchenslblc. but they did.

Colonel Fred Grant and hts Wife rode with General Grant a daughter Nellie (Mrs. Sartoris): U. S.

She was held fast by the crowd aud oould not stir. There wm no change in the order of tho funeral procession as heretofore published.

It has been repeatedly charged by men in a position to know that Gov. St. John was a political prohibitionist for the money there is in it. Whether the charge is true or not, it is certainly proven beyond a doubt that his advo­ cacy of a political prohibition party is against his better judgement. Recently State Senator Sutton, of lowa, received a letter from James G. Thrower, leader of the prohibition movement in Georgia; where practical prohibition has been reached without even an attempt at forming a political pr-uhibitkMi party. This latter is dated at ALtaata, Ga„ July 24th, 1885. In it, Mr. Thrower makes the following state­ ment: “When Gov. John P. St. John was in the city last March I was with him, and visited with him and rode over the city with him and discussed with him the advantages of non-parti­ san local option over other methods, and he said both publicly and privately that the method in the South, and es­ pecially in-Georgia, in procuring prrrhibition under local option unmixed wftk\ party politics, as the best that possiiily could be adopted, and If he lived here he would do just as tiie tem­ perance people here are doing.” Gw. St John talked good common sense to Mr. Thrower. When he talks in fayor of a political prohibition party, he is advocating what his common sense teaches him is not in the interest of temperance or prohibition. According to the reports of the U. 8. internal revenue collector, there are over *4,100 saloons in- Iowa. In some of the smaller towns prohibition appears to prohibit.; but there is a marked in­ crease in the number of drinking places in th? .cities. Tne bad feature of the case in the cities is that the saloons bear none of the burdens they inflect on society, as they do in Nb^raska, where there is a tax of 81,000 on each saloon, in Illinois SuOO. Michigan 8300. Detroit has a cremation society, which will procure suitable apparatus for cre­ mating tiie bodies of such persons as in life manifested a wish for such a dis­ posal of their remains. Hungry Mich­ igan greenbackers and a few (?) demo­ crats would like to have the machine tried at once on Don • Dickinson’s “po­ litical inflooence” with the present ad­ ministration. It stands between them and the loaves and fishes. Papers which during Grant’s candid­ acy for the presidency said all the mean things they could contain about him, and were mad because the dictionary didn't supply more ammunition fm, their ! mud-batteries, are now vieilig ■ with pach other in praise for the dead i hero, iwhich praise their partisan bias compelled them to withold during his lifetime. This is especially true of our contempory, the Journal. Estimated that Grant’s funeral cost Unde Sam 81,000,000. This sum ex­ pended in honoring the memory of a national hero is by no means lost. The good it will do in awakening patriotic sentiments is worth infinitely- more than the cost. The ricfixity nation- un­ der the sun cannot afford to be stingy in its tribute to such national charac­ ters as General Grant. t At l^st he has been found. The man who id “bigger'n Grant” turns out to be Parson Newman. He alone does not know enough to subside. Him alone the angel of death has not subdued. The conceit of the man is boundless.— Kat Telegraph. With the prospect of an early market­ ing of ihis year’s crop, whea^ is a little off Jn (price.

Congressman Morrison, the hero of the Horizontal Tariff reduction fiasco, threatens to introduce a similar meas­ ure at the next session of congress. Re­ publicans will not complain if he does. Tbe tabor organizations will unite in a demand that the coming congress pass such special legislation as will relieve the present unsatisfactory condition of the laboring men of the country. The backbone of President Cleveland in compelling tpe rich cattle men to vacate Indian Territory lands is indeed commendable. The Saginaw valley strike is about ended. Concessions' were made on both sides, and a continuance of tiie un­ profitable affair was thus avoided. Cholera has made its appearance in Faris.

The arguments have been made, and the testimony weighed. The jury has come in, and the case was decid,ed in favor of the Spiral, to the consternation of the Crank, who tried by bribery, intimidation and every artifice known to the shyster lawyer to prove that the Spiral was not as reputed. He tried to win our $1,000 challenge to find a man who would say that we do not fulfill the terms of guarantee. But he failed, as they all fail that undertake it. - . . . . .< The Crank is beaten at his own game, and fair-minded men blush for a resident of the beautiful city of Hastings who will stand up and say the Spiral Spring is made of cast iron, the wheels of pine and the tire of leather painted; that there are no bolts in our carriage, just the heads painted on the wood. These stories the Crank has told till he was black in the face. Sensible talk, but what can you expect of a Crank ? Now we will give the Crank some more medicine: We will give' him $1,000 in Cash to find a man, woman or child who will say we have not done by them just as agreed ! We will give him $1,000 to show on the streets of Hastings a carriage that will ride as easy over roads as the Spiral, the same to be decide,d by a committee of Hastings gentlemen ! We will give him $1,000 to show on the'streets of Hastings a carriage that can be ad­ justed to suit the load carried: changing in ten seconds from a light to a heavy spring !

His own townspeople tell hfm that he caught a Tartar when he yelled at the Spiral. Keep on, Crank; and your family physician will pronounce you, as everyone does, a Genuine Old-Fashioned Moss-Covered Crank. We are still at the Brick Bam on State Street Still getting _ _ in the Spirals by rail and wagon road. Still sending them out singh and in long strings, to gladden the hearts of the ready purchasers who are waiting for them. Still paying our livery and hotel bills, and have money left. Still happy and glad; being convinced ourselves and convincing others that we have the Best Spring in the \\ orld, and the Best Trimmed, Best Finished and Handsomest Carriage running. The Spiral is always at the front, and is death to Cranks. Stick to your rakes and forks and your skating rink, Chetty! but let the Spiral alone, and you may yet be happy. “Spiral Springs Forever,” is our motto. k Spirals always on hand, and Cranks fitted on short notice.

I am a modest man. Modesty is in many people a virtue; in me it is an absolute fault. I have spent all my life in New York City. I have been in society for years. I have been a dry goods clerk, an advertising agent and a Custom-house broker, and yet I am, under certain circumstances, a sufferer .from modesty, or bashfulness, or what­ ever people may call it. Notwithstanding ordinary good looks, respectable manners, a good business and plenty of affection, I re­ mained unmarried, and even unen­ gaged, for years after the day I deter­ mined I had been a single man long enough. . Not that I did not fah^in love, for I loved often and ardently; but it always happened that before I could muster courage sufficient for a declaration and proposal, some other man would be smitten by the charms of the lady I ■was adoring, and I could do nothing but hasten to relieve my heart of affec­ tion for another man's wife. 1 finally began to doubt whether I should ever get a wife at all. I lacked but a few years of middle age. and what tender, susceptible girl, such as I should hojM! to win, would marry an old man? Frightened by the thought, I solelmly resolved that, should lever again fall in love, I would promptly declare my position and earnestly press my suit. My resolution had not time to coo before I succumbed to the rtaistlese power of Nellie May ton's eyes. Nelli* did not purposely'look' witching! roe with her deep brown eyes—girls never do such things purposely—but by some fortunate accident she gave me a glance which immediately made me her adoring slave. As she w:is an old acquaintance, I did not think a deliberate courting was necessary: on the contrary, I deter­ mined to tell my story at once, come of it what might. As I entered the parlor Nellie wad at the piano. , She turned quickly upon the t tool.1 •‘Nellie!” 1 exclaimed, but 1 could not remember another word of fire tender declaration I had Composed be­ fore leaving home. I was conscious of Hushing violently and of opening my mouth to .speak words which would not come; but her searching eyes which were fixed on mine read my story then and there, and the ripe, tender lips below them broke into a pleased smile. As she aro<e. from the piano. I, with an im­ ploring look, threw my arms about her. and the drooping of her beautiful head upon my shoulder answered all my unspoken questions. Med my darling to a sofa, and there, with unloosened tongue I whispered to her not unwilling ear a Btory which seemed to interest her greatly. In the enthusiasm which possessed me after I had regained my speech, I went bevond a mere declara­ tion of love—I asked Nellie to be my wife. She answered in the sweetest whisper in the world, bnt in words the roost terrible: "Yes. if mamma is willing.” In an instant I was shivering vio­ lently. Ask Mrs. May Inn’s consent! I had rather have proposed to half the marriageable lad es in New York! Not that there was any thing frightful about Mrs. May ton: on’tbe contrary she was the impersonation of politeness, good­ ness, tact, kindness and all other vir­ tues, as well gs-Jjeing brilliant, wittv, and, despite her forty years, extremely handsome. But when she listened to any one it was with a look which plainly said: “No nonsense, now.” When she found occasion to use sar­ casm. she was most unmercifully sharp and bitter, and her power of mimicry was such that she could imitate to per* lection every tone of her miserable vietim. To think of facing her with any possible risk of her disapproving of my suit wm simply dreadful. The twilight had faded into darkness. Vf course fhadu’t a match; but Nellie insisted upon the gas being lighted, and left the room for one. Om of the dark­ ness 5 oonjurod up dreadfu^ virions of Mrs. May ton in every nose and feature of disdain, and. aside from any other cause, I was thankful when the gentle step and rustling dress of my darling announced her re lorn. To my delight Nellie, rather re­ luctantly, “the truth i*. abe thinks you’re a goose—she said so this very day.” ' . “Perhap* she will pity me a little when she knows how I love you,” said I. “I don’t know,” said Nellie, dubious­ ly* “She say* she don’t believe you’ll ever amount to anything, and she’s sorry for the poor girl who is taken in by you.” Cold drops of perspiration stood on my brow. “You shall be mv wife, despite any­ thing she may think or sav.” “Sh-b-h!” whispered Nellie, «as we heard footsteps near us—“perhaps that is mother now.” A* the unknown touched the chan­ delier I attempted to remove my arm from its resting place, but my darling, apparently determined to force an issue at once, and to uphold me in my criti­ cal moment, caught my wrist tightly with ten soft but very strong little fingers. There was a hiss of gas, and then a flash, and as, with a desperate attempt at calmness, I raised my head to meet my doom, I saw under the chandelier, with a wonder-struck coun­ tenance, Nellie Mayton herself, while a peal of laughter escaped from her mother, who was tightly locked in my arms! •‘What are you two people doing?” said Nellie, ^lowly recovering iier ■enae*.. “Why.” said Mrs. Mayton, with an air of self-forgetful resignation, “1 eame into the parlor a moment ago anti took a seat on the sofa, in the dark, and this impudent fellow—-I am old enough to be his mother—put his arm around me and wondered how hecould ever ask my mother's consent. When your father proposed he was thought­ ful enough to ask my consent first, but 1 suppose the fashion of courtship has changed since then. It made my blood boil to hearyoursaintly grandma called merciless and sarcastic and cutting, and all sorts of dreadful things, but I've borne it meekly for your sake. Nellie, that you might have a stepfather young and silly enough to sympathize with you, and”-----“He’s mv own lover.” said Nellie, with a laugh and a blush, as she boxed her mother's ears and hid herself in my arms. Mrs. Mayton gave us a look of mock indignation, but only for a mo­ ment, for two motherly tears entirely hid the sharpness of her eyes; then the lips 1 had dreaded so much gave each of. us a kiss, which was likewise a bieas­ ing.—.V.

Toward noon the lowing herds may be seen moving toward the new branding place, where the calves and the other unbranded stock become ao3uainted with their owners’ marks trough the medium of hot branding irons. The knife also comes into play in cutting notches, slots and other marks upon the ears and dewlaps, and iu altering the males, but the scorching, heart-harrowing brand is never forgot­ ten. ’Tis noon. We are at the camp. One hundred and fifty stock-growers and cowboys of the Powder River round-up are in sight. Five thousand bead of cattle are scattered over the broad green sloping riverside. Since three or four o’eldck in the morning all hands have been busy, bnt the ex­ citement keeps up. No one seems io tire, and the larger the round-up party the better do the boys seem to enjoy the work. . In the camp each outfit selects a spot for its mess wagon a hundred yards or more from any other, so that each lot of horses can have good feed. A drove of about a hundred norses, often more, seldom less, accompanies each outfit. Each bunch of horses is in charge of its “wrangler” (herder). From these bunches the cowboys “cut out” (se­ lect) fresh horses twice a day or oftener, and about ten horses can be found to each participant in Che “round up.” Ten or twelve outfits, with their wagons and tents, occupy one to two miles along the stream. The large herd that has been driven in from the hills and valleys is held by twenty or twenty-five cowboys, who ride around the cattle, ever on the lookout for a stampede. Cowboys from each outfit cut out their employers’ e^tle, which are taken, one lot after another, gener­ ally, to the branding place, where each caff receives the marks that are borne by the mother it follows. Thence the bunches (small lots- of cattle) are driven off to one side and held until the boys are ready to start them to their respective places 'on the range. Near the fires, where tho branding irons are being heated, a bellowing of distress i* hoard, and throughout the camp a lowing, a muYmuring. an unceasing din goes up while the cowboys whoop and veil, ki-yl, and whistle at the animals as they ride a^iong thepj, suiting their signal or command to the necessity of the mo­ ment. Lariats glisten in the sunlight as they Uy through the air to the horns or feet of the animals that are being roped and thrown, and tho boys near the fire work quick as glass-blowers, even forgetting their meals until others are on hand to take their places. No less forgetful of their work are the ma­ jority of the round-up party. Space ’does nqt permit the complete picturing here of this very interesting scepe. The morning call, tho falling lente, the “wrangling” of fifteen hun­ dred cow-horses, the camp fires, the cooks, even the peculiar cognomens of the cowboys and their horses, are.each sufficient for entertaining sketches. And now a few words regarding the “mess” of the cow-camp. The cooks and cookocs take charge and drive the mess-wagons, with their camp equip­ age, from place to. place during the round-up periods. Almost invariably the cooks are prof^Mroaate, and the cooking Is excellent With delicious, juicy Montana beef, with broad made from Dakota whqat. and with manv ol the vegetables and fruits supplied by the “canners,”—all prepared, usually.

L THEY MUST GO! Having just finished my inventory, and finding the stock too large for this season of the year, will for 30-Days I Commencing August 27th, sell Dry Goods, Groceries, Clothing, Boots and Shoes, Hats and Caps, Hardware, Crockery, &c., &c., At lower prices than were ever known in Prairieville. The stock is large and will give you bargains in every depart­ ment. I mean business. Come and see and be convinced. M. J. GOSS, PRAIR1E V’ 1TJjE, MICH. It Is a Fact! That Groceries and Crockery can be bought in Hastings much cheaper than any place in Barry county. Traveling men say that the grocery patronage of Hastings exceeds that of any town of the size in the State, amt-that groceries are not sold cheaper in any Michigan city than' in our own. These low prices have prevailed for the past year. Why Groceries and crockery are sold so cheap is because for a year we have dis­ carded the credit system, save ourselves losses from bail debts and interest on . accounts; save our good customers from paying interest on “slow payers,” and particular from furnishing goods to dead-lieats free gratis. The man who buys and pays for his goods of a credit dealer does this, whether he knows it or not. He has" to pay the losses of the credit system. It is an outrage on him; one that he would not submit to if he knew it. OUR CASH .PRICES Took the wind out of the sails of the credit dealers, and Groceries and Crockery are sold cheap. \_ WE ABE THE LEADERS IN LOW PRICES, Because ours is the only exclusively Cash Grocery in the city. We can afford to sell goods cheap. Barry county people who want grueeriee cannot afford to buy of any other dealers. We can save you money. WE DON’T EXPECT You to trade with us unless we can make it an object for you to do io. We can save you money on Groceries and Crockery, as an inspection of our goods and prices will prove.

The boatmen row .tending, and looking forward Malte has very much the pearanoe of a Sicilian, or Neapolitan town, only it ia much cleaner, and there arc few or none of those odors yvhioli are so disagreeable to travelers in Spanish and Italian towns. The streets are regular and some of them very steep. The houses are high and white, and all ornamented with tasteful balconies and bow windows. The atone employed is a limestone, so soft when ouarried that it can be cut with a knife, but it hardens on exposure. The views down some of the atreete, with the pretty projecting balconies, some bright colors here and there, the motley throng of passen­ gers, priests, bareheaded monks, red-coated soldiers, bluejackets and stately Moors from Tunis, with a glimpse of the bright- blue sea at the end, were such as would delight any artist The principal sight of Malta is the Church of St. John, built on the .ridge which separates the thain harfrom the lesser uuarantine harbor, and near it is the palace where the Grand Maaters'of the Knights of Malta were wont to hold their all hut regal state. The St. John who is .the titular deity of the Knight^ of Malta is not the gen­ tie Evangelifit. but, as becomes their character, they have preferred tlie .-u rn and heroic Baptist. The inci­ dents in his life are depicted in the ft seoes on the roof of the church. Externally it has no architectural pre­ tension's, but the interior is rich in mosaics. Four hundred knights lie in­ terred beneath the floor, wnich is en­ tirely covered with oblong squares of marble, set in with beautiful mosaics. Elaborately emblazoned armorial bear­ ings, quaint devices, and Latin inscrip­ tions record the deeds of long-forgot­ ten heroes hqw slumbering beneath in peace. One shrine hae gates of silver, which, we were told, were preserved from the republican rapacity of the French in 1798 by being painted the color of iron. A' chapel on the other side of the church had gates of gold, but these Napoleon contaived to ap­ propriate. The palace irli large build­ ing with » court-yard, in which were many orange trees covered with fruit. Passing up a magnificent staircase of white marble, we were shown into the council chamber. This is now used by the municipality of Maltiu The ■ walls are hung with silk tapestry, rich and fresh in color, which, we were told, had been the gift. of Louis XIV. of France. Then by long cor­ ridors decorated- with . portraits of the graud masters, aha with rows of mail-clad figures, we parsed to whathad been the banqueting hall, and is now the arm#ry. Here was a large collection of suits of armor, and other objects of antique and historic interest. Under a glass case Js preserved die original deed of gift by which the Em­ peror Charles V. granted Malta to the Knights. Not being able to hold Jeru­ salem. die knights withdrew to Rhodes ‘ and here for along time helped to stem the advancing tide of Islam. At length driven from Rhodes, they fiel­ ded in Malte in IMO. which was be­ stowed upon them by Charles V. ou condition that thov would defend both it and Tripoli.

When he could get no one else to represent him he comes himself, places He is looking very bad and must be very sick. But it is his own fault. Dealers have told him they could not sell his buggies by the side of first class work; the riding public have told him his buggies are a fraud; commer­ cial reporters have told him that he is no good; yet his cheaply-made and cheaply-trimmed work by the side of first-class goods, and is knocked out the first round. ‘•Amidst the mists with angiT boast He thrusts his fists against the post And still insists he sees the ghost.” Seeing he dare not put up, and being the smallest target we ever wasted amunition on, we will not give him respectability by noticing him farther, but will return him to the oblivion he has always occupied, where he will receive only the contempt of all good citizens who admire truth, candor or common sense. .

Members of tiie commission from the Gould system and from the Wabash Road were located at the Hotel Brown, where telegrams were received from all the promi­ nent railroad centers in tho West, and communicated by messenger to the National Committee. It was the intention of the National Committee to resort to ex­ treme measures, and order a general strike on the Gould Roads this morning, but de­ cisive action was delayed until the senti­ ment of tiie branch organizations in the West had been learned At two o’clock the National Committee consid­ ered It advisable to fire their largest bomb, and a resolution wiw adopted requesting the Knights of Labor employed upon all iall­ roads west of the Mississippi River to sus­ pend work until they receive further in­ structions from the National Committee. In an Interview published Tuesday Mr. Hall, of Ute Gould System Committee, said that tiie Knights were 75,000 strong west of the Mississippi. In the United States the organization had 500,000 members. The Knights say the strike was brought about through the Wabash refusing certain of their members work In the shops of the company unless they signed away their rights and locking them out ot said sIk>|«. They also say the company instigated a series of out­ rages upon member* of tiie order by caus­ ing their arrest without warrant by United States Marshal*, after which the men were makacled like felons and Incarcerated in filthy dungeons, all this being done for thb purpose of creating an impression upon Uie public that Uiey were felons, outlaws aud dynamiters. Tliej* also cliarge that the United States Court has allowed Itself to be used as a tool of tiie como any to deprive certain Knights of the right of free speech. The heads of departments on the Wabash will have nothing to say about the strike. Under tiie order issued Tuesday all Knights of lAbor must refuse In any way to handle Wabash Railroad stock,’•nd should any yardmaster, master mechanic, district or division superintendent, or any other of­ ficial of the read endeavor to force the men to bundle such cars, then a district strike is ordered. On the Wabash Road the Knights of - Labor are all or nearly all out and have been for some time, but on the Missouri Pacific, Iron Mountain, Union I*adflc and other roads, the Knights are said to fill the shops and yards. The order will enforce a public test of the strength ot the Knights of Labor. In fact the fate of the organization seems to be In the issue. One of the most Important feature^ennnectod with tiie trouble is tiie resolution at­ tacking United States Judges Brewer, Treat and Krekel. Mr. T. J. Russell, one of tiie Wabash committee, in discussing it, said: • PThe Knights of Labor will do everything -'in their power to carry out the resolution calling for tiie impeachment of the United States Judges. We consider that the Judges are guilty of malfeasance in office and of treason. The Constitution of our Government guarantees to every man freedom of speech and the right of petition. Mt-u are out on bond now whd were jailed by thesie Judges for exercising' their rights, and we propose to stand by them and ascertain whether or not we can get Justice. Major .Warner, Congressman from the Kansas City Dis­ trict, and General Palmer, of Illinois, have ’kindly volunteens 1 their services, and I 'doubt not that' art.cles of Imi>eachnient of ^Brewer, Krekel and Treat will be drawn 'up and presented to Congress.. We have sufficient proof to sulistantiate our charges, and will push tliem with all tiie Influence which we can command.*’ It has transpired that the order Is­ sued Tuesday by the Executive Board of the Knights of lAtair was not mailed until yesterday, and, tln*rofore. It will be a couple of days before any action can by taken by the various assemblies at points on the roads involved. The order will be posted in con­ spicuous places In railroad shops and yards to-day* £t. Louis, Aug. 24.—Railroad affaire here remain practically uucluinged. No direct Issue has yet been made and matters, un the surface at least, are quiet. Knights of Lstyr In ti>« Missouri Pacific sho|N< wi|l not tilich Wiibosh rolling stock. Satur­ day lily bridge company undertook u> bandit/ Wabash engines and ' prepare then/ for work, but as soon as it was i discovered that nearly • all tl e employe* of Hut comjApy were Knights ot Labor, ^Superintendent Dickenson with­ drew bls orders. In some cases engines have been turned and cleaned by non­ union men in the Missouri Pacific shops, but a request that no more should be sent there has been compiled with, and thus tiie opportunity for an issue has been avoided. So (far as repairs are concerned the Wabash stops can do light work here and irTEtett St. Louis, aud all. important repairs can stHI be done at Mo­ berly. Mo., Spring field and Decatur, I IL, aud other points where the shops are ruu by non-union men. The chief apprehension is that the Executive Committee will Issue another order directing all Knights to re­ frain from handling or In any way inoviag any Wabaah freight. If that la done the locomotive engineers will neces­ sarily be Involved, and real trouble will re­ sult The rejKirt that the men at Stanberry, Mo., have resumed work Is confirmed, but It la believed they returned under a misap­ prehension of the situation, and that they will go out again as soon as they are better Informed. ________ Flv« Im Killed by Llyhtnin*.

OOOD WORDS^FOR When Lewte R, Redmond, the South Carolina moonshiner, cornered, afur for eight years eluding the government officials was aaked to surrender, be ex­ claimed: •Never, to men who fire at my back r Before he was taken, five bullets had gone clear through him, but strange to relate, he got well, in the hands of a rude backwoods nurse." By the way, if Gartielp had been in the hands of a backwoods nurae, he might have lived. A heap of volunteer testimony against the infallibility ®f the physicians has been accumulating of late, and people are encouraged to do their own doctoring more and more. It is cheaper and quite as certain. Before Detective Curtin of Buffalo caught Tom Ballard he “covered” him with his revolver. Tom saw the point and tumbled! • Joe Goss was “covered” a few weeks ago and he tumbled, and so did Dan Mace. Death “fetched em" with that dreaded weapon—kidney disease. But they should have been lively and drawn first. They could easily have disarmed the monster had the/ covered him with that dead shot—Warner’s safe cure, which, drawn promptly, always takes the prey. It is doubtless true that sporting men dread this enemy more than any mishap of their profession, and presumably tbife explains why they as a rule are so partial to that celebrated “dead shot” ■Redmond was right. No man should surrender when attacked in the back. He should “draw", face about and pro­ ceed to the defence, for such attacks, so common among all classes, will fetch a man every time unless “covered” by that wonderfully successful “dead shot. —Spdrtjrman'n Newt. 00 U MOIL PBOOHEDINGS.

It ha* a nice apCarance. and the customer geta what pars for. So it is with shoddy. It enables a manufacturer to get up goods that have a fine face and wear well at such prices that a poor man can afford to buy them.” “How about the wear of goods con­ taining shoddy?” -Well, thev certainly wear as long us they should for their cost. Another Kinc in favor of them, they utilize an mouse amount of material that would otherwise go to waste. Manu­ facturers buy largely of the color they want to use, and to save the expense of dying. It'sells for from, five to forty cents per pound, but principally nt from twelve to twenty-five copts. It is a business of itself, and. Lhe amount of it used is immense.” “Shoddy,” said a large satinet man­ ufacturer, “is used the sane as wool, mixed with wool, and sometimes with cotton. Nearly all nice good* have some shoddy in them!, particularly if they are backed. It does not neceesarily follow because goods are shoddy that they are not strong and service­ able. Low grades of woolens—what we call satinets—are- printed, and look as nice as fancy casslmerek. I will show you some, ’ producing a number of attractive patterns.. “Now. this is u low grade of goods. Quite stylish, aren’t they? We have to be more par­ ticular even than the manufacturers of cassimeres in getting up the styles for them. Very attractive patterns and novelties are what we an- after. The printing is done the same as calico printing— with copper rollers. Before printing the satinet is all colors and shades, and worth from twelve and one-half to fifty cents per yard. The printing costs live cents peryard’” “What proportion of shoddy is there .in this satinet worth fifty cents nor yard?” ‘ z ~ “Probably seventy-five per cent. But you .mist remember that there is as much (lifl'erenee in tho qimlisy of shod­ dy as there is in the quality of wool. If you want to buy gixuis at twelve and omshalf cents per yard to make pantaloons of you can not expect it to contain much wool, or even a very fine quality of shoddy. Personally. I question iT there is*any economy in bmlng cheap goods; but the introduc­ tion of shoddy enables a-poor man to procure a good looking and service­ able suit for a very small amount of money. Many men can buy a suit for twelve or fifteen dollars that would be obliged to go in rags if thev waited until they could afford one 'that cost fifty dollars. About two dollars and a half will purchase enough satinet to make a good, serviceable suit. All woolen goods, to make a suit that would last no longer, would cost three times as much. Now, here .are some goods that were made by the tirot man­ ufacturer that ever used shoddy in this country. This‘material was at first sent down South for tho negroes. It is juiri as strong as doth can be made, I do not care who makes it. It is made rather better now than it was at first and is sold very largely to public initltutlou.

The constituents of the foods which build up and sustain animal organisms have likewise, undoubtedly, their pro­ portionate parti in the process. The exact balance in each special instance may be unknown, and even the knowl­ edge obtainable by experiment may bo unsafe for exact application in further practice, beoaufie so much depends uj>on the combined circumstances of each I ease. Summer, winter, the age and ] state of lhe animal, and many other j| conditions, must always rule the pro­ । cess of food assimilation. The cow in full supply of the dairy, and the fatten­ ing steer each require food adapted to ‘its special circumstances. The brood­ mare. the stallion dur.ng the season, the foal, weanling, or suckling, all re­ quire at lvart.dHlerent proport ona and generally different kinds of elements of sustenance. So in man. The brain­ worker and the manual laborer must$ each have the diet which is constitute*! to repair the daily expenditure of his strength and substance. One kind qf food is believed to contain elements specially lilted lo restore the wear of the ecrebnil organ; another supplies the beat needed by the man whose duty exposes hiru-to the inclemency of win­ try cold; and another, again renovates tiie body wasted under a powerful sun. or before a blazing furmice. Each must draw from his food thb equiva­ lents of the particles of his body lost in daily work. If his food be over rich in 2>ome substances, hut poor in one re­ quired for support of his system, it will cloy b's appetite or fail to stimu­ late his desire, nnd- a large proportion • of that which he cotHtime- will he wasted. So it is. nssu^llv. in.feeding onr iu-rds and studs, and flocks.

Many of the hotels have one of these skittle grounds attached to them in some shady nook, adding much to the attractions of the lazy life of an en­ forced sojourn at a German Bad; and they are frequently also to be seen in the gardens of private residences, showing that the game is by no means Eracticed only by the lower classes.

Tbe at­ todance was fair, but the playing was wretched on both sides, errort rather than good plays being the rule. The score was 22 to 14 in favor of the home nine, with one innings to spare for Hastings. The batting of tbe home team was excellent, fifteen singles and five double® being made. Of three three singles and three doubles were made by Charles Soules. Clarksville made but three safe hits in the game. The visiting team were a very gentle­ manly lot of fellows, and this was their first defeat in ten matched games this season. It is due to the home nine to say that three of their players had not handled the sphere before this season; and John Russ, catcher, had not played ball before in over two years. sacfifkx or ur«_ SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

The results obtained by Mr. Kirklev a statistician of the Adjutant General’s office, oompiling from all at tan able sources a list of the deaths on tbe Union side during the war, possess a melan­ choly but very strong interest at thb rima It has been a very difficult task to gather names for thb toll. So manv perished unseen and unknown; so many rotted away in Southern prisons o’f whom every trace b lost, that the/wmpUer might well denpairof ever complet­ ing hb task with anything like an approach to accuracy. Patience and perseverance have at last accomplished the difficult task, however, and we have in Mr. Kirkley’s tables what is at least the most accurate and complete death roll yet published, if not one that is absolutely without error. The registers of a dozen South­ ern prisons have not been secured— those at Americus, Atlanta, Augusta..• Charleston. Lynchburg, Macon. Mari­ etta. Mob le.-Montgomery, Savannah, Shreveport and,Tyler—and only partial records were obtained from Cahawhs. Columbia, Florence. Millen and Salis­ bury; but with the^'exeeptions the roll b aub^antially conlplete. One of the moat remarkable result* arrived at. at least to the reader who knows nothing practically of war. ia that.more than twice as many men died from disease in tlfe army as' from the shot, shell, bavouet and’ sword of the enemv. One hundred and ten thousand^ and tl>irty-e:ghtoflicers-and men were’ killed outright or died m their wounds; but 224.586 d ed of disease. The num­ ber of those who are known to have died in captivity reaches the appalling total of 2V.W8. Another remarkable fact b that over fifty per cent more men were killed in action than died of wounds, the re­ spective numbers being 62,896 and 40,­ 777. At least three fourths of the wounded must have recovered, partially at least, so that they did not die during the period covered by the Inquiry, which ceases with the mustering out at the end of the war. How many veterans there arc still among iu» who carry about their bodies the mark* of violence suffered during the war. let the long pens on r ; testlfv. Mr. Kirkby’a tables arc nr/ange I by Stnte<. so that wo °an tell ju< how .many lives each one contributed to the cause. New York, of course, heads the list, with a total of 46,584; Ohio comes next, with 35,475; then Tllino'.s. with 34.­ 884; then Pennsylvania, with 33.183, and Indiana, with 26.672. Michigan. Mis­ souri, Massachusetts. Wisconsin, Iowa and Kentucky contributed between 10,000 and 15.000 each; all tbe rest leas than 7,000 each. It is worthy of remark that every State now in the Union, except South Carolina, is represented on tho list, and every Territory except Utah. There are only 15 from Georgia. 42 from Vir­ ginia, 78 from Mississippi, 141 from Texas. 215 from Florida. 345 from Alabama, and 360 from North Carolina. Arkansas contributed 1.718 and Tennes­ see 6.777. This is exclusive of colored troops, of whom 86 847 died, and does not take in non-combatants of either color. The grand total of. known deaths in the Union army was nearly 360,000. Adding as many more for the rebel leases—probably not an overestimate— and talcing into account the navies on both sides, and the prisoners who died unaccounted, we reach a total of at least 800,000 men as the cost of the war to thb country—nearly one-eighth of its entire voting population. — A’. Y.Mail and Exprw. _ _ ■ MEXICO. ln< HepabUe. * A Pittsburgh gentleman, who visited tbe.“Land of the Montezumas” a few y^ar.* ago,, related to the writer in a recent conversation some of the strange scenes and inc dents which he witucsled while there. The Mexican cart, as he described it, is, or was. probably, the most singular vehicle Inal ever was evolved since the barb^ous ages. Ne'thi-r iron nor steel enU*nt into its composition, nor does the workman use s|M>Kcshnve, plane, or augur in its conbtruct on. The only materials he in­ quires are cottonwood and rawhide, amt* the only tool un axe. Two blocks, round or oblong, it makes but litilc difference which, form the wheels. Through thtv«e he Inirnr holes for the axletree. The I mly of the cart cons ats of poles or ilat stri|>8 of timber, fastened together with rawh’de. A rough .polo serves for.a ■tongue. When in motion the wheels wabble in every direction but the right one. nnd for want of grease groan »> as to be heard for miles. Breakdowns are s» frequent that lhe roads are lined with tne wrecks of these primitive vehicles. Near a spring or water-bole in tbe State of Durango, many years ago. wns found a large stone, the only one in the vicinity, it wns very heavy, but a muleteer came along who had strength enough to lift It and throw n over his head.

The cakes were probably two inches hr gbv oneand a bait wide,bo e tbeo l.<-. *ta»up name of the tnanittaetun*r. The wickedest part of an Italian character is his lore of making exbut for tbe immediate faculty of dread­ ing up a falsehood with all kinds of imaginary eircnmstanoes, I think the Italians are supreme. It iz often as much for the sake of pleasing as for the sake of deceiving. I must explain, however, that they jump to conclusions with a rapdity and an unreasonable­ ness which often bears the appearance of willful falsehood when ft is not really so. Their mobile natures and vivid imaginations are to blame, for this. Then their preceptions are so quick that a look or a gesture betrays to them in what direction your inclina­ tion tends when you ask them a ques­ tion. and their wonderful easiness and pliancy of temper enables them to adapt "thcDBse ven to their answers to it. There is little or no flunkeyism in Ital­ ian servants. They do not like to wear a livery; With them senrtude forfeits no rights, but bestows a claim. They are grateful for acts of cour­ tesy and for trifling donatons. which their brothers in America would often scorn and forget. But thejr resentment is as easily excited as then- love, and often sponges out the prev'ous good will. Vour man servant oeeomes just as confidential and com­ municative. after he has been some time in your service, as your maid. Kindness to children is a remarkable trait in Italian men servants. The pa­ tience with which they will try to please them and wait on them is wonderful. The understanding, too. between the old child and the younger one is very striking. Three men have a susceptibility to impressions and an elasticity of temperament which is mo't childlike and appreciated by children.

Hb life ia a record of opportunities missed.- and hb motto, the words that the poet has pronounced to be tbe saddest “of tongue or pen.” In the voyage of life, whatever the character of that life may be, what­ ever the channel may be, the pilot must look ahead. Still this b occasionally more necessary in some lihea of life than others, aud- while in a few they are exceptional, a man has to look ahead for years, lhe stock farmer must at -least look ahead a good many months. Whatever he does to-day is done, or should be done, with refer­ ence to a future date. In breeding, indeed, the breeder looks forward to the offspring’s offspring for genera­ tions. but if he take only the care of tho cattle and other stock actually on the farm, his interests make it neces­ sary for him to always look forward to tbe'ultimate destiny he has assigned to each. Is thi>> horse to be kept on tho farm, and fur what special purpose, if any? Is that to be sold? What calf is to be kept, and why and which to be sold? r What b for reproduct'on? what for the market? arc questions to be put in regard to all kinds of stock, and that man is never a. success who never Rvfes either an answer' till the time r action has arrived. In summer tbe prudent stockman th’nks of and pre­ pares for the forthcoming fall and winter. He b always forearmed, and in case of a long, dry season, leaving him with pastures parched and burned in the early fall, the reMinreea provided in mm' of emvrgeirev are. avn lable. His stock enter witte*' quarters in a good condition, hav.ng made all the ga’n possible during the summer months when that gain cnuld be se­ cure’! the cheapest, and nre sure to continue it during the winter, so that all the winter fodder suppled to them may not be just so much waste. Ere Ipug he will know for just how much stock he can make good w;nter provis­ ion. the chances of a long, bleak spring, like the last, being duly con­ sidered. and hr knows what to get rid of and what to retain. If you would succeed, look ahead. — National Live Stock Journal. E. A. MATTESON DEALER IN Pianos and Organs Hastings, Mich AnVITtTTRVT) LETTpEB.

SO. —Minister with Secretary Bayard \Jj Friday stock Having just finished my inventory, and finding the stock too large for this season of the year, will for Mr. Keiiey declined to further connect himself with the Austrian mission and resigned what little there was left to him to reeign. It has all along been Mr. 30 Days! Bayard’* intention to regard KeUey a* Min­ ister to Austria for tbe present at least and possibly until next winter, when a successor would have* been ajflwlutea. There is no doubt that this was Mr. Bayard’s progetna me, but when he came to examine the law in the matter he found if Mr. Kelley was retained in tbe service he would be Minister only in name. He could neltlier go to Vienna and repre­ sent tbe United States nor could he draw a dollar of salary after the day the Austrian Government refused to receive him. Upon acquainting himself with tbe facts Mr. Bayard decided it would be foolish to con­ tinue tbe fight; and. this conclusion being shared by Mr. Kelley, the latter formally tendered his resignation. Mr. Kelley will locate in Richmond and engage in tbe practice of law. Another fact that has developed is the absolute cer­ tainty that ihe Austrian Government gave no reason for Its refusal to receive Mr. Kelley. This statement Is made upon tl>e authority of a high official of the State De­ partment, who has read the cerrespondence, and it effectually settles the rumors in circulation that the basis ut the refusal was Mr. Kelley's Jewish wife. The same official says that while th!* was undoubtedly tbe case, the Austrian Min­ ister of Foreign Affairs was far too diplo­ matic to allege any specific objection. Eti­ quette forbids that this country should de­ mand a reason, and the matter will probably rest It is denied at the department that it 1* Secretary Bayard’s Intention to leave this Government unrepresented at the Aus­ trian court The-mission to Italy was filled shortly after the refusal of that country to receive Mr. Kelley, and It Is thought that no more than the customary delay will en­ sue In sending another representative to Austria. Mr. Kelley’s appointment to tbe public service wa* first solicited by himself. He was indorsed by the entire Virginia delega­ tion. The President appointed him as Min­ ister to Italy. That Government sent a protest to the authorities here against the appointment because of hl* speech a num­ ber of years ago at Richmond, Viu against Victor EmmanueL After the pre­ sentation of the protest, Mr. Kelley vol­ untarily resigned, saying that be did not wish to embarrass the Administration. He was then appointed Minister to Vienna. Within two days after the appointment was announced the Austrian Minister in this city intimated that It would be “disagree­ able to Mr. and Mrs. Kelley to live In Vienna, because the latter is a Jewess. Secretary Bayard sent a communication to the foreign representative, in which he spoke only of Uie complaint against Mrs. Kelley. The latter was earnest and dignified, taking the ground that would naturally be taken against such a complaint. Afterward came a cablegram from Mr. Lee, charge d’affaires at Vienna, saying that the Aus­ trian Government has refused to receive Mr. Kelley and has declined to give any reason for Its action. No Intimation of tlie cause has been received here. There Is a suspicion, however, that the Italian Minis­ ter at Vienna, is the direct cause of the Austrian Government’s final action.

It m increaaiag oon*tantly and hearen only know* where it will •nd. Every establishment of any pre­ tension* now employ, a man especially to trim windows. Some smaller houses securu the wmces of an individual who is not connected with it in anv other capacity than that of window'trimmsr and who does the work for three or sour different stores. Others have a salesman who is an artist in the business. Hii artistic capabilities de­ mand a far higher salary than he could expect as a mere salesman. Very large shops hire professional trimmers who do nothing else but decorate the win­ dows. They must be constantly study­ ing and endeavoring to devise some­ thing new. startling and attractive to draw the attention ot the public. Cer­ tain forms of arrangement have be­ come fixed and are known by various names. There, for instance,” point­ ing to one window where several shades of wash materials were drawn into a shape, small at tho bottoipn and spread­ ing out at the top like a fan, “is what is known as tne 'rising sun’ stvl® of decoration. This manner of fold­ ing,” indicating a piece of embossed velvet drawn out in a long fold, ;“is called the 'double loop.’ But the trimming of windows must be novel or it ;is nothing. Consequently every shop shows 4wo or fhree times a week some new arrangement which is due alone ;to the ingenuity of the trimmer.” “How long does it take a man to trim a window?” • y'From four to ten hours, according to its elaboration. I have known, too, when windows were to be trimmed for sonip special occasion or season’, of two or three men being occupied in one window for a couple of days. One clothing house in the city showed a window during the holiday time that it reouired three men four days to trim.’ • • "Are many goods damaged by being exposed in windows?” “No. for the reason that but small Quantities are displayed. We have anmmies so made that a small piece of cloth can be wrapped around or folded about them and represent an entire bolt. Then we do not exhibit our very finest lines in the windows. A trimmer has to use the greatest care in getting up a window. He must be able to judge of the effect!! will have from the outside, not how it appears to him where be stands. Ho must be skillful in his blending of. tints, and have an eve as to the weather, for some things the most attractive in one kind of weathei will not draw a glance in an­ other. and above all possess originality. By the way,, the trimmers are called artists now. There are ver}1 few Amer­ ican trimmers. The majority are En­ glishmen or Irishmen. Irishmen are the most tasteful dry goods men in the world.’! “Are women ever employed as trim­ mers?” • “I’vei never known of any who were. It is a field o' occupation that I think ■ women have never invaded; but with the quick feminine eye for color and effects, there is no reason why the’y should not be eminently successful in it”—Chicago News. If you experience a bad taste in the mouth, sallowness or yellow color of skin, feel stupid and drowsy, appetite unsteady, frequent headache or dizzi­ ness, you are “bilious," and nothing will arouse your liyer to action and strengthen up your system like Dr. Pierce's “Golden Medical Discovery."

T., Sept A—For the first time in mauy yean there is not a Chinaman tn Rock Springs, except the dead and wounded. The five or six hundred who were at work in the mines here have been driven out, and nothing but heaps of smok­ ing ruins mark tlie spot where Chinatown stood. The feeling against the Chinese has been growing stronger all summer. Tbe fact that Uie white men bad been turned off tbe section, and hundreds of white men were seeking In vain for work, wblje the Chinese were being shipped in by the car­ load and given work, strengthened tbe feeling against them. It needed but little to incite this feeling into an ncuvo crusade against the Chinese, and precipitated the little battle of Wednesday at No. 6 mine, about one mile north of towiL Through some mlsuuderstkndiug two Chinamen took a room in the mine belonging to two white men. When the white men came they or­ dered them out. They would not go and a fight ensued which was participated tn by nearly all the whites and Chinamen in tbe mines. Tbe Chinamen were wonted in the fight and four of them were badly wounded, one of whom has since died. The white miners then came out, armed themselves with firearms, and notified the men Id the other three mines to come out in the after­ noon. Meantime all was excitement ia China­ town. The flag wm lariated as a warning, and the Chinese working In different part* of the camp fled to their quarters. After dinner the saloons closed and no liquor has been sold since then. The miner* gathered on the front streets, about one hundred of them armed with guns, revolvers, hatchete and knives, and proceeded to­ ward Chinatown. Before reaching there they sent a committee of three warning the Chinamen to leave in an hour. Tills they agreed to do and started to pack up, but in about half an hour the white men grew Impatient and ad­ vanced upon the Chinee® quarters, shouting and firing tiielfguns into the air. Without offering resistance the Chinese fled with whatever they cnuld snatch up. They fled to tbe hills about a mile east of the town, the miners firing at them m they fled. AH the stores in town were closed, and men, women and children were out watch­ ing tbe hurried exit of John Chinaman, and every one seemed glad to see them on the wing Soon a black smoke wm seen issuing from the peak of a bouse in Hong Kong, then from another, and very soon eight or ten of the largest of the houses were in flames.

Among the people tbe wildest rage and excitement was created by the publication of tjie dtapatches. A vast crowa gathered in front of the German Embassy, and tear­ ing down the coat of arms dragged it in the mud to the. Puerto del Sol, where it was burned amid yells of “Down with Ger manv" and with execrations against Bismarck. The crowd then returned to lhe Embassy, and in a frenxy of rage completely gutted tho building. Tlie crowd had now grown so great that a gen­ eral riot was feare<L «i»d the troops were ordered ob< to clear the streets. As the soldiers appeared the crowd gave way, and tlie streets were soon quiet. Fifty-six leaders of tlie mob were arrested on the spot, and the total number ot arrests made i.« 1SL A similar demonstration was nuule against the German Canulate at .Valencia- .

Maonip. Sept. 7.-The anthGerman movement appears to be genuine and popu­ lar among all classes. The royelbU and the Government organs only timidly urge moderation, ami the troops and police offered only feeble n-sistame to tho attack on the German embassy.

St. PetkhSbubu, Sept. 7.—Tne recent reports about the wholesale expulsion of Riuston subjects by Germany are 'fully couflrmed. Many thousands of people have becu expelled from the towns in lhe east­ ern provinces of I’russia. Thousands of Polish and Jewish Russians have been or­ dered to leave by the 1st of October.

At least five hundred persons in Dannie an- under notice to de­ part. At Koulsbexg the same harsh state of affair* exists, and the sufferings likely to be caunwd by the forced removal of so many people excite the keenest sympathy- The natives in these dries are indignant at the prospective loss of so many wealth-pro­ ducers.

It looks almost or quite like hoar frost spread over the ocean-like expanse of land and water, like a white veil blending and making more beauti­ ful the darker verdure of the foliage around the pools, and tbe glowing em­ erald and color shades or the cotton and corn fields. • A thousand mocking birds are all of a sudden cleaving the olue Vault above you with such strains of unpremedi­ tated art. as skylarks never dreamer! of. In fact, if one the Southern mocking birds ever hears tbe song of one of those English skylarks which the late Isaac W. England found a home for in the meadows of New Jersey, he will beat him so badly in his own song that the British warb­ ler will hide his head under his wing, poor thing, and die of grief and shame. Afar off from thicket and leafy covert comes the cooing of a thousand doves, the soft whistle of as many quails, the shrill cries of the redbirds. the shriller, calls of the catbirds, and the dotes of many another feathered songster, whose names you must learn from Mr. Audubon. The thrushers, too, hardly less musical than the mocking birds, sing from the leafy boughs and shrub­ bery near by. While bathed, ns it were, in this out­ burst of liquid melody, this first diapa­ son of the opera of the day. suddenly, without warning, with no rosy glow to herald ita coming, up from tho .white mistv horizon hursts the sun, a blaze of silver light bigger than the biggest cart-wheel that ever was made, daz­ zling, as if composed of ten thousand burnished silver mirrors flashing elec­ tric light through panes of crystal, flooding the landscape with silver lace dotted with diamonds and powdered with sparkling silver dust. The sense of the exquisite coloring of the scene is lost in the wondrous radiance shed over a landscape that stretches miles awav, until the dazzling view is Jost in the silvery haze of the horizon. It looks as if all fairy land had met to do battle on a field of jeweled silver, pan­ oplied in silver mail, and even- shield and every spear decked and tipped with perns. Not one moment is there rest in this wondrous scene, which lasts but a few minutes, for tho first breeze of morning waving the spark­ ling banners of long mos.% and the first warm kiss of the sunbeams sweep the glittering pageant all away.—R.

Clockwork gets out of order, and be­ sides it costs money. I’ve got a plan to make the darkey dance up and down like mad and it won’t require any clock­ works at all.” “Well, that sounds a little like sense.’’ was the rather mollified reply. “How will you do it?” “Sftmple M A, B.

Vice-president Hendrick’s recently made a very intemperate speech at a meeting of Parnell's sympathizers at remarks to expressions of sympathy for Indianapolis. Instead of confining his the Irish cause. Mr. Hendricks went so far as to favor tbe disruption and des­ truction of tbe British nation. Our country and 'Great Britain are on very friendly terms, and for the vice-presi­ dent to utter such sentiments is a breach of international. courtesy. No one but a demagogue who occupied such an exalted oflice would speak thus of a friendly foreign power. Mr. Hen­ dricks as a private citizen could proper­ ly express such sentiments. As vice­ president he had no right to do so. What have greenbacks gained by their alliance with tbe democracy ? Will any one state a single greenpack principle that hiu been espoused by the present democratic administration? President Cleveland favors suspension of silver coinage. He is an emphatic hard money man. He favors paying the bonds in coin. The greatest monop­ oly fo our country, the Standard Oil Co, is represented in his cabinet in an im­ portant station. If any greenback!- has been “recognized" by the administration we have failed to learn his name. Cleve­ land hates Ben Butler as he does poison, and with good reason too. The Detroit Post has had for some time a series of articles relating the rows in the democratic camps of Michigan. Just as soon as democrats get a chance at theoflice feed trough, they commence a terrible and swineisb struggle to get the best place. The fellows who are crowded out then begin to wail. Such is the history of democracy everywhere, and it is being repeated with entertain­ ing variations in our ovhi state. These factional fights soon disrupt a party, and the democracy of Michigan was never at a lower ebb than at this writing. Pennington was in Washington last week in the interests of civil service re­ form. He wants the republican office holders of this congressional district turned out and democrats put in their places. That is not the much vaunted civil service reform that Cleveland so eloquently espoused before his election; but it Is the kind he meant just the same. It is not generally understood that Pen­ nington favors Editor Dentils’ claims upon the Hastings postoflice. On Friday the Detroit base ball club would have beaten the Buffaloes, “if-y-." That “if" has been a member orthe Detroit club too long. The managers have made many changes; but the club will never amount to much until that “if” is discharged and “get there” put in its place. This Detroit “if” often plays a losing game; but tbe dub cannot afford to keep it any longer. If the club can’t get rid of ‘If" it had better disband.—Detroit Post. Burlington Hawkeye: With all the requisites for admission, tliere om be but one reason on whi&-za Democratic congress could refuse her to enter. Dakota is an offensive partisan. Her people believe in Republican principles, and would send Republican senators and representatives to congress. But this reason is not a fitting cause for set­ ting aside every reason of justice and honesty. Dakota should be admitted, if she is an offensive partisan.

That Insurance Agent Once More, “Tbe reliable and truthfu)/ insurance agent,” as our friend deigns to call us, is not sick, for he has not found the reliable farmers of Woodland leaving his patronage. He finds Mr. Talcott’s methods do not work. When they.see that he says that it is news to him that the Agricultural policies are worthless, and that he never said they were, they will wonder what sort of a man he is. He says he doubts if I have written an Agricultural policy since January 1st. If he will take the trouble to call at my oflice, I will show him the record of several I have written since that time. Would say to the intelligent insurance agent that the Agricultural Insurance Co. never fused with the Sun of London, thereby making a powerful combination against the Ionia, Eaton & Barry. It will not be necessary. Mr. Talcott’s own methods and those of his agents will wipe out his company faster than any combination could. • Mr. Talcott said he was willing to wait for the verdict of the intelligent farmers he found in all parts of Barry county.

Prairieville claims part of the victory! Mr. Thoedore Morehouse, on the township line be­ tween Prairieville and Orangeville (house in Prairieville, farm all but six acres in Orangeville) threshed 220 bush­ els of Velvet chaff wheat from five acres, or 44 bushels per acre, and drew in barn from said lot (estimated) five bushels more, or 45 bushels per acre. Land, clover sod, heavily manured and plowed in the month of J une, 1884. On about one-half of the fields, through a mistake of setting drills, he sowed three bushels per acre and the balance two bushels per acre. Thinks where he drilled three bushels the average was as high as 50 bushels per acre. Mr. Morehouse believes in ^higher state of cultivation, sowing less acres to get a given number of bushels. The Journal again makes a feeble effort at whitewashing its patron saint, Boss Hicks.-Itaays that the Boes is not an extravagant official, and that the people so decided by their votes last spring. The fact is that, the Hicks matter was an issue last spring in only the 1st and 4th wards df this city, and the line was drawn between P. A. Shel­ don and Chas. Hicks, candidates for supervisors. The republican candidate was elected by a handsome majority, running over 100 votes ahead of ids ticket. Perhaps the Boss and his organ call this “vindication;” if so, the Tess they have of it the better they will be * pteued.' .. ' ’ Ixit us see: The official records show that «the expenditures for maintaining the boun­ ty poor increased from f2.818.50 in 1871 with J. M. Nevins as chairman of the board of superintandants, to 85,082.38 in 1884, with W. F. Hicks as chairman, and this with the average number of inmates increased but 6 and &-12ths. Why is it that it costs so much more to run the county farm under the administration of the Boss and his henchman Overseer Green, than it did under a republican administration ? Why does the firm of Hicks Bros, have -the entire grocery trade of the county farm ? The figures fail to show that it is because (groceries can be bought cheaper of thi.«’ firm. * On the contrary, the reverse is tlie case. Let any honorable fair-minded man scan the official records und then say if he can, that W. F. Hicks is^not an extravagant and unbusinesslike offlciaL At present we make no mention of the transactions of the boss not shown upon the official records. Hrs Political Creed.—The editor of our down-street contemporary last week felt it incumbent upon himself to define his politicial creed, which he en­ deavored to do with the leading asser­ tion that “We are a greenbacker.” This followed by the seemingly contradictory statement. “We are a democrat, as the terms imply.” These two statements, the one immediately following the oth­ er. are not so contradictory as they might appear, when it is taken into con­ sideration that the ••terms” implied are that John H, Dennis be permitted to tack the addenda “P. M." onto his name. Aud this by the grace of Grover Cleve­ land, he of whom the Journal published the so-called Halpin scandal, during the campaign. But our neighbor has ex­ perienced a "change of heart,” evident­ ly; for he now says, "weare a democrat. In support of the present administra­ tion.4 and he might truthfully add, "having an eye on tbe government of­ fice located on Jefferson street, city of Hastings, the patronage of which is at the disposal of 'the present administra­ tion.’” • That the erratic course of this self­ styled political leader makes this con­ fession of laith a necessity, we admit— provided, of course, that the political status of the individual in question is of moment to the public. It is with grim humor that the dyedin-the-wool democrats of Barry county read this open bid for political favors at the hands of “the present administra­ tion,” bv one who did all in his power to encompass the defeat of the democratic party in’84. It is an opm secret that would thev receive him and the paper whose col­ umns he controls. John II.

We congratulate her on the re­ ceipt of the money, as she is a helpless invalid owing to her having* sustained a fracture of the hip a few years ago, and under such circumstances, money­ can never come amiss.

The irrepressible agent seems to have been let loose and is roaming at will among the defenceless people. The agents sell anything from a barn and a cradle to a boob-jack and a hair pin. and always have just what you want, and cannot possibly get along' without another moment. Two of Mrs. Beattie’s daughters are with their sister. Mrs. Goodyear, of Hastings, and attending school at that place. The father of Mrs. Thiers, accompa­ nied by her sister, Mrs. Sherwood, of Plainwell, paid her a visit the fore part of the week. Hastings Township. Fine weather for seeding. Quite a number from this vicinity are at Grand Rapids attending the fair this week. Most of the farmers have their wheat sown and are now busy cutting up the corn. Rev. R. A.

He in­ vites a comparison of the work of the re­ cent Parliament with that of the Parllaiment which premlrd it and confidently appeals to the electors for a verdict He refers to the treaty of Berlin; to the good effects mno.ig the natives of tbe Mar­ quis of Ripon’* concillHtory policy In In­ dia, and to the scltleinent of the Russo-Afghan frontier dispute, the credit of which he claims tor the Liberal ]tarty. Mr. Gladstone admits that the liberal Government committed an error respecting the occupation of Egypt but says that It was due to Manptis of Salisbury’s InterveDtlon -policy. He now favors the entire withdraw* 1 of the British troops from Egypt, and believes that the people ap­ prove of the Liberal Government’s refusal to. stifle the Iransvaal cry for freedom. England, he says, once free of the Egyp­ tian tangle, will regain her former poslUmi In Europe and will be able to guard the young Eastern nations. He favors a re­ form of both the House of Ijords and House of Commons, free land and the ab­ olition of primogeniture. He believes Uiat the church is auffldently strong to sur­ vive disestablishment, and states that be is anxious to give Ireland the fullest Justice, while at the same time preserving the unity of the empire.

The Puritan would no: gybe, although her spinnaker was not drawing, and Mie was steadily dropping astern. l)owu\ came the Gonesta's rlub-tupsall at 12:50, aud the Puri­ tan's in a moment later. The 'eutter set a working topsail, but the sloop set no other. At one ji. nt. the Genosta’# splnnuker-bdom was lower**! on deck and everything made anug for the long beat to windward. r Thu large passrngerbiiats and steajn yaclits had gathered off ihe "outer mark." and all eyes were upon the two boats as they ch tue bounding along.

Captair Crocker thought It prndeotto bouse the Puritan’s topmast at 1:25, as the wind was coming last and heavy, while an ugly sea was fam rising, Hilo which the yuefits plunged. Out (rum the DOrthwes* at-1:15 came a spitetui squall of wind whistling through tlie shrouds of the boat* lashing the green wave* into foam, and sending the spray-in sheets hign over the yachts to the windward.

We became thoroughly convinced that we could buy and sell crockery, for cash, at figures far below those that had pre­ vailed, not only in • Hastings, but in Barry County. We bought large lots direct from the manufacturer, and thus saved jobber's profits to our customers. We bought for spot cash, and got all the margins that cash dealers can get. We sell for cash, lose nothing from bad debt or interest on ac­ counts; consequently we cau offer crockery at prices never before given in Barry county. The quality of the ware is No. 1, made from a mixture of American and foreign clays. The style and finish of the goods cannot be excelled ny those of any other manufacture.

Then followed an elaborate chart which looked like a war map of Afghanistan with the names of towns left out The editor was puzzled. He read the letter over again to himself. Then he read it out loud, running the letters and figures together ns if they were one word, in the delusive hope that they might make sense that way. Find­ ing' this unintelligible, he read the cipher backward. This made no more sense than the other way.' 'Then he took the letter and compared it with the chart, thinking that one might offer a clew to the other. At last, weary of the task, he turned them over to the associate editor for translation. The associate editor had formerly been the puzzle editor on a religious weekly, and he glanced hurriedly over the man­ uscript with the eye of one accustomed to such things. "It’s a puzzle,” said he, sagely, "and I’ll study it out some time during the day.” But that was easier said than done. The puzzfe would not yield to any of the common methods of solution. In vain he laid it down od the floor and peered at it from a distance, hoping to discern in the crooked lines some un­ seen picture. In vain he looked at it from every possible position. In vain he turned" it on its face and tried to read the reverse of it. The author was evidently too old a bird to be so easily caught. Finally, in despair, he took it back to the managing editor. "It’s evidently a puzzle,” said he, । "but it must be one of the new fash­ ioned kind that has come up since I Gov. John Schuyler Croaby, an inti­ went out of that line of business.

The tendency of a party long in pow­ er is to conservatism. It loves to re­ vive the past, and seek to keep the past achievements ever in mind as an in­ ducement for newT supporters. While the republican party was more free from conservatism than any other in history; while it can point to a glorious pant, and of grand accomplbmments; it must be confessed that in its later years of power, it did not enter into the re­ forms demanded in one time with that energy which characterized it for its first twe»ty years. Had it done so, it would still be in power. Nothing could »o stimulate its leaders to renew­ ed activity; nothing could so compel them to feel the popular pulse and get abreast and even in advance of the times; like the defeat of 1884. It is re­ newing its youth; and there are signs of an awakening of interest and activi­ ty in the grand old party such as have not been observed for a decade. He who fancies that the republican party is moribund does not correctly interJ pret the signs of the times. He who fancies that its old victorious legions will not be reorganized for victory are not true prophets. The republican par­ ty has a history of which its members can well be proud. It likewise has a future, which will win the support of the brain and heart of our land. A Georgia man who experienced re­ world,” replied ligion went crazy whUe being immers­ handing back t ed.

Y. 100 Ztow* Concerning the future of tbe build­ ing-stone industry little that is definite can be said. As tbe population inoreasea nnd becomes more fixed in its abode, there naturally arises a demand for a more durable bu Iding material than -wood, which is still largely used in the country towns and smaller cities. As wealth accumulates, too, better and more substantial buildings are erected, which are often profusely embellished with the finer grades of ornamental stones. The demand, then, ia sure 'to increase. In regard to the amount of the supply there can be no question; everything would seem to deptyjd on the quality, variety, nnd cost of work­ ing of yet-to-be-discovered materiaL Are wc to continue to import as now the finer grades of our ornamental stones, or will our own quarries, yet perhaps to be opened, produce enough and more.than enough for our own use? I am inclined to think the latter. In many .of the Eastern and earliest to be settled States very little is yet known regarding their final resources. In Maine, for instance, fully one-half of the State is yet unknown land. Its present quarries are nearlv all im­ mediately upon the coast Wha’t are the resources of its immense interior can not with certainty be foretold. In the Southern’ and Western States and Ter­ ritories. this condition of affairs is naturally greatly magnified. The Vir­ ginias, North and South Carolina, and Georgia, all contain excellent material, none of which is now in our principal markets. Michigan can furnish brown sandstones in great abundance fully equal to any now quarried in tbe more Eastern States, and other sandstones of a beautiful mellow tint are known to o’ccur in Western Arizona. The Rocky Mountain region contains an abundance, both in variety and quan­ tity, of granites, sandstones, marbles, and the more recent volcanic rocks, os basalts, rhyolites and trachvtes. Some of these are very beautiful, excelling anything in this respect from the East­ ern States.—George P. Merrill, tn Pop­ ular Science Monthly.

WHY HE WAS AFFECTEQ, Let me tell you one thing about •hopping, dear reader. There was a clerk behind the counter in the white goods department of a dry gooda store. He had the air of a foreign nobleman, with a bewitching admixture of 4he American dude. The very sight of him was enough to conjure up n halo of romance around his darling, durly little heady In front of that same counter, seated placidly on a stool, was n di<u tinguihbi'dly fashionable young Woman. She was making a selection of under­ clothing; and anybody famil ar with the beauty, intricacy and cost of tbe garments now worn by out-and-out swell belles can understand when I say that she seemed to.be buying every­ thing that struck her fancy, that she was indeed purchasing liberally. But it wasn’t poss ble. L thought, that a visibly growing emotion on the part of the pretty clerk was due to the magni­ tude of the sales. No, nothing d'rectly connected with mere trade could have so stirred the depths of hh delicate soul. He got worse and worse. His ^nd quivered, his eves tilled with irs, his replies to her casual ques­ tions grew more incoherapt. and fin­ ally. with a sigh that almbst rent his' moderate bulk, and a grip of his in­ finites ;m al forehead between his trembling palms,’he dashed out of thbroom. / <’ : •‘What in the name of goodneu ui tbe matter with the fellow?” 1 in­ quired of the superintendent of the de­ partment after he had detailed another clerk to attend to the fair customer. ••On the positive quiet.” he replied. ••I don’t mind telling you.

Schantz’ colt captured the first premium at the Kalamazoo state fair last week in class 13, Breeder’s Stock, Standard Bred Roadsters, Unde­ veloped., There were numerous entries from all parts of Michigan, but the fine qualities of Mr. Schantz’ thoroughbred Hambletonian won him the blue ribbon. Mr. S; of course feels elated, and all lov­ ers of good horses here are pleased that a Hastings horse should win first prize in a class where the test is excellence. Irvino station will soon have a rol­ ler process flouring mill second to none in the state. Through the courtesy of Mr. A. D. Hughes, principal partner in the opcrating Arm of A. D. Hughes & Co., we were shown about the mill and its workings were fully explained. The mill proper can have no superior as to excellence of machinery. It is all ftrtt class. Added to this is the Smith Puri­ fier. and its equipment is thus complete. If No. 1 roller dour cannot be made tn this mill it cannot be made at all. The capacity will be 100 bbls, per day, and a ready market for the flour can be eas­ ’ ily had. Our only regret while looking over this excellent mill was that it was not located at Hastings. Unless we are greatly mistaken in men. the patrons of this mill will find Messrs. Hughes A Co., not only good business men but thorough gentlemen. Church Notes.—The membership of the M. E. church two faara ago’.num­ bered 146. One year a£o it was 354, while this vear it numbers 282. The loss in membership has been due to the organization of the Hastings charge, most of the members of which belonged to tbe church in this city. During tbe past year Rev. Hunsber­ ger attended 25 funerals and married §1 couplee. The church raised for all purposes about 81,800 and closes the year with all indebtedness paid. The Sunday school has 11 officers. 16 teachers and 334 scholars enrolled. The average attendance during tbe year was 150, and the collections amounted to ^Fhe Michigan district conference of the M.

A session of tbe Lansing Preebytery is being held at Lansing, commencing on Tuesday. , Probably some tramp is responsible for the fact that James Wright, of this city, has no barn, the same being burned to the ground Saturday morning.

Experiments m to the Relative Value of Dlfferent Feeding Material*. j With the harvesting of the fall crops and the approach of winter the old question recurs how to dispose of the arm products so as to get the largest returns at the least outlay. That country obviously makes the most of its resour­ ces which does not export its lumber and ores in a crude state but in manu­ factured products. So the farmer who can reduce his produce to a concentra­ ted form, instead of selling it in bulk, will generally find himself a gainer thereby. If grass, corn, oats, turnips, etc., can be converted into butter, cheese and meat, the cost of transportation will be less, the prices received greater, and a greater part of that which is taken from the soil will be returned to it in .the form of manure. The difference 'may not be great, but in these close times it may be enough to turn the scale between profitable and unprofitable fanning. In order to convert his pro­ duce into the most saleable commodi­ ties, the fanner needs all the light science can give him. If his object is the pro­ duction of pork or beef, he must bo adapt his pastures and crops as to secure the greatest amount at the lowest cost, and this is possible only when he knows . both the relative food value of the arti­ cles raised and the relative cost of rais- Prof” Brown of the Ontario experi­ mental farm has devoted nine years to tasting different, feeding materials and the following are some of the results: The heaviest weight per day was obtain­ ed by feeding sugar beet, assisted with hay and a mixture of grain, which gave 2.70 pounds at a cost of 12 JJ cents per pound.whlle permanent pasture produc­ ed 2,05 pounds at a cost of only 2 cents per pound. No doubt the difference in cost was the labor of preparing the food, the pastures being ready for the stock, while the mixed diet' was prepared. There was also a difference in the quality of the pasture. Permanent grass gave better reaults than pasture from w-hich a crop of hay had been taken, as the hay­ pasture produced only 1.15 pounds at a cost of 5 cents per pound. Thus it is shown that the food which' makes flesh fastest is not always the cheapest. A New Use For Pyrethrum. Mr. E. Holeenbeck, of Gtnessee Co., Mich., writes me th ns: “Your discus­ sion of pyrethrum as a plant insecticide in solution led me to try it on my homes, sponging them with the solution as a preventive of the annoying, attacks of the bot and other flies. I have used it with excellent results.” Mr, H.t in re­ ply to an inquiry, writes me that he used one dram to a quart of water, and that it gave entire relief to his horses, as also to those of a neighbor, who was plowing for him. He sponged the homes in several places and frequently repeated It. He has used it for a week. Mr. H. wishes me to try the remedy and report. I shall hasten to do so, and as the remedy is sasimple and cheap, I would advise others to do so also. It pains me very much to see our poor, faithful animals worried by bot flies, house flies, tabanus flies, etc., and if we can use a simple, pleasant remedy, like pyrethrum, successfully, it is a matter oi very great importance and worthy of ■wide circulation. I shall try it at once and report. a. j. cook. Entnince and Exit. The hard-worked son of toil need not envy the gayly-dressed, llght^lfepping child of wealth, who, butterflydike, flits past him. There is a homely but very expressive saying about it being best to begin life “at the little end of the horn.” The pampered youth who starts at the big end with everything in profusion, but who as life advances is pressed and squeezed continually more and more until be reaches a miserable exit, en­ dures—if he can continue to endure— more suffering than is ever felt by any child of poverty, just as a tender skin feels more than a hardened one. Be content, then, to go on with your hard work, strong son of labor. • Continually better yolir condition little by little as opportunity and prudence show a way; and you will be expanding into abun­ dance while the child of wealth is being narrowed to the poverty which you emerged from—which you were trained to bear but which he cannot endure.— T. Yokefellow in N. Y. Tribune. r Any one wishing to improve the looks of his premises'by coloring bare boards will find a cheap but durable whitewash by slackening one quart of lime to an ordinary pailful of water. Add about . three pounds of whiting, previously broken up, and mixed with water, and six or eight ounces of glue dissolved in hot water. We recently visited the premises of a farmer whose outbuild­ ings and fences were as white as tne virgin snow, all through the influence of whitewash. These buildings present­ ed a neat appearance, and the owner was, as he should be, proud of them. Manuring apple Orchards.—Last year, most of the apple orchards through the country bore profuse crops, and prices were consequently low. Many were unsold and unused. This year the supply is scant, and prices fair. Fruit­ growers desire to avoid these extremes, and to equalize the supply through each year. If this could be done, we should not have a surplus one season and a dearth the next. Nothing will accom­ plish this result so well as the use of barn manure. Top-dress the orchard broadcast every autumn; or apply the manure every alternate year. As the Jiresent is the barren year in most local­ ties, now is the time for applying the top-dressing, so as to give the trees more vigor next season, to compensate for the exhaustion of the coming heavy crops. Farmers generally do not give their orchards sufficient care and atten­ tion, but let them take care of them­ selves. Even those who have cultiva­ ted them while young, and thus given them a good start, often entirely neg­ lect them when they reach good bear­ ing age and are seeded to grass. Then is the time of all others when they are benefited with manure; and if good crops are obtained in the odd year, they will be less liable to overbear in the even years.

Washington, Sept 25.—The corresj-.mlence that passed between Dorman B Eaton and President Cleveland on the sub­ ject of the former’s resignation as ciutirman of the Civii-Servioe Commission was given to the press Wednesday night The commissioner does not urge the ticcepUuce of hb resignation unm such time m the autumn as the Pre»ident may find it convenient to make a new appointment. Mr. Eaton gives the hbtorv of bls connection with Civil-Service Reform before and after its adoption by the Govern­ ment and explainswhy he did not resign hte luiiUon before. Thefrlends of reform, he - ays,urged the necessity of hb remaining un­ til the Civil-Bervice machlnerv was in Jood working order, and It could be seen what a change In the Adinln'stration would de­ velop Another reason given for withhold­ ing his resignation to that he should regard it as a pernicious precedent utterly repug­ nant to the spirit of the Civil-Service act to treat the office of Civil-Service Commis­ sioner as political, and hence as one to be filled at die beginning of each Presidential term. Mr. Eaton continues: ..Those considerations constrained tne to continue In my place until the reform policy of your Administration, so clearly defined in > our declaration, should be ns unmistakably developed in your acta us President as it had ’ft*1’ !? J Ol!r *cU’ ■? Governor of New York. That time has arrived. No candid man can longer protend to regard that policy as indefi­ nite or doubtful. Every one oft b<rfive months oi your Administration, durlnsr which the Civil-Service are and rulca bare been on!<>reed with as much breadth, firmneM and fidelity as under that of President Arthur, ha not only added new evidence ortho utility of the newsystem upon which he congratu­ lated the country, but has made more definite the settled purpose of your Administration to faithfully enforce both the law and the rules iu the future.'’ Mr. Eaton expresses the opinion that in the near future civil-service reform will have not only a greatly enlarged, but an al­ most uuchallenged enforcement, as it has now become an issue between the people and .the politicians. In reply ITesIder.i Cleveland requests Eaton to retain his position until Novem­ ber 1. and expresses regret that the ccanmissioner should have determtaed to with­ draw from an office where his services havp been of such inestimable value to the coun­ try. The I’resideih says: "Tbe succeM which has thus far attended the work of civil service reform b largely due to the fact that its practical friends have t>rc»cce<l<xl upon the theory that real and health! progress can only be made as the .peo­ ple who cherish pernicious political Ideas, long fostered and encouraged by vicious partisanship, are persuaded that the change contemplated by the reform offers substantial \fmprovement and benefits. A reasonable tolerat on for old prejudices, a graceful recognition ot every aid. a sensible utilization of every instru­ mentality that pnnniiMwi assistance, and a con­ stant effort to demonstrate tbe ad vantages of tne new order of things are the moans by which this reform movement will, in tbe iuture, be.further advanced, the opposi­ tion of ,Incorrigible spoilsmen rendered In­ effectual, and the cause placed upon a sure foundation. Of course there should be no surrender of principle, nor backward steps, and ail laws for the enforcement, of tbe re­ form should 1« rigidly executed: but tbe benefits which Its principles promise will not • U-lully rcallzod uoksx the acquiescence of tbe people Is added to the stern assertion of a dowr.ne and the vigorous execution of the lawg. . • • • • • • "I believe In clvfl-aervioc reform and Its application In the moat practicable form at­ tainable. among other roaaona, lx>cause It opens the door fur tbe rich and the poor alike to a participation In public plaoehoidlng, and 1 hope the time b nt hand when our people will see the advantage of a reliance for such an opportunity upon merit and fitness instead of a dependence upon the caprice or selfish interests of those who Impudently stand be­ tween the people and the machinery pf their Government. 7/. The Preshlent con eludes his letter by ex­ pressing entire confidence in Hr. Eaton’s attachment to civil service reform, and In­ dulges tbe hope that he will continue his interest in the cause after he has surren­ dered his office. The llMe-Batl Record.

Tinelief of currants, aaparagua and rhubarb or pie-plant, whichthev aee in nursery grounds or in the garden of their friends. Sometimes thev see specimens in the hands of agenti, and give orders for a supply for planting in their own grounds. Quite likely thev have all these things growing, but they want better varieties of them. It does not occur to them, and of course the agent does not inform them that they now have the very kinds they are or-' tiering, and that the difference between what they have and what they wish is ntirely due to the judicious applica­ nt manure and proper culture. . however, is generally the case, dug a sufficient quantity of well­ ’ stable manure, applied at‘ the •••“•>. time, and by giving the soil the working it requires, the stalks of as­ paragus and pie-plant may be made exceedingly large. These plants are very gross feeders, as might be ex­ acted when we take into considera­ tion the circumstance‘ that a portion of their growth is cut away every two or three days during several months of the season. Most kinds of plants would be killed outright by this sort of treatment, and these will only thrive well by supplying them with material to reproduce the portions that have been removed. The currant bush is as gross a feeder as the rhubarb or asparagus plant. It will retain its life, make some increase in size, and produce some fruit if it stands in poor soil, is surrounded by grass and weeds, and receives the benefit of no fertilizers. But its Sowth will be very small under esc circumstances, and the fruit will be inferior in quality and very small in quantity. The common red Dutch currant is a very good variety and ia distributed in all parts of the west. It was planted near old Fort Dearborn, which was located near tbe mouth of the Chicago River, and cuttings taken to various portions of the Western States. A supply of currant cuttings can tie obtained in almost any neigh­ borhood for nothing or for the trouble of pruning the bushes. • Their increase , into the dimensions of bearing bushes nd their productiveness will depend 'most entirely on tbe amount of uanure that is applied to them. If . some of the bushes are planted where tbe soil is very poor and the ground is allowed to grow upto grass and weeds, and others'arc placed where the soil is naturally rich. & kept well supplied with manure and free from weeds and grass, the difference will be so great be tween them in a few vears that a stranger would conclude they be­ longed to distinct varieties. Large stalks of asparagus and pie­ plant. sell much more readily than small ones, and customers generally think that their quality is better. Large currants are more salable than small ones, and the quality of currants is ord /qarily determined by their size. The k- ^er currants are 'the greater is thv quantity of juice that can be expressed from a given amount. There are as many seeds in a very small cur­ rant as in a very large one. It is much easier to gather a bushel of currants if the clusters are long and the berries are large than if the reverse is the ease. If currants ani verv large they are ad­ mirable to eat without beii^gl cooked. Only bushes that are in a good growing condition will produce large crops of tine fruit. Their growth will depend chiefly on the amount of manure that is appPed to them. The early part of the fall is the best time to apply manure to currant bushes and to asparagus and rhubarb plant. Well-rotted stable manure is as good a fertilizer as can be found. If applied near the surface of the ground the soluble portions of it will be carried about tbe roots by the fall and spring rains. The application of manure in tbe fall will cause the bushes and plaints to commencegrow­ ing as soon as the frost has left tbe ground in the spring.—Chicago 1'intce.

Tbe times of its occurrence are the spring and early summer and also in the fall. Usually it appear when the season is wet and the pasture grows rank and is watery. The sheep eat too much of this pasture and overtax the digestive m«oMnery. From Indigestion the blood becomes affected, and often before any trouble is stuiiected the she^ suddenly die. Usually the wool leaves the skin by simply touching it, after the animal is dead, and thq body is found often to be swollen and blaokened in patches, especially on the forequarter, flank and hindquarter. Air gathers beneath tbe akin, and a post mortem exam nation Yrill reveal decomposition, nnd the body will be filled with black blood. The mouth and tongue, and sometimes the eyes, are inflamed. There is constipation; the urine is dark and the droppings are bloody. The symptoms, of course, differ somewhat in different animals, and sometimes sheep die with this trouble that have few or none of these marked symptoms. The disease rarely appears on hilly ground, or on soils that are gravelly and dry. Rich bottom lands are favor­ able to its development Prevention lies ia avoiding a sudden change from poor to rich food or from rich to poor food, and in unceasing regularity of feeding. The first thing to do when the sheep are attacked is t^ administer a purgative. Give the following in oat meal gruel: Sulphate of soda, two ounces; flowers of sulphur, one ounce; powdered myrrb, one scruple. Six hours afterward give a teaspoo nfnl of nitrous ether in a pint of water. The powders that we so often recommend for indigestion and blood difficulty, will prove excellent: Charcoal, sul­ phur, saltpeter, golden seal, gentian and May apple root a half pound each, and copperas a quarter of a pound. This prescription corrects the digestion, reaches the kidneys, clears the liver, gives tone to tbe system and purifies the blood. It is an excellent prevent­ ive of disease, aud a most excellent remedy. As we have sometimes said before, however, it will be found that oil meal, without anything more, will often prove all that a sheep may need to aid digestion and to help the bowels perform their functions. We can not too strongly recommend oil meal, while sbeep are on dry food. If fed this judiciously, they will be in much better shape to change from dry food to grass than they usually are without it.

Among the trick, or rather habit, acquired by haraes in the stable, rest­ ing one shoe upon the other hoof, lying in the gangway, rolling in the stall, and kicking are among the worst. In the first place, the horse, if suddenly startled, is apt to bring the resting foot down suddenly, often seriously injur­ ing the coronet. The remedy is a boot covering tbe fiart likely to.be injured. Lying in the gangway may be prevent­ ed by placing a bale or ro|>e behind th© horse, preventing him from backing up. Standing in the gangway may bo prevented by tlie same means. Rolling is the most difficult to cure. The most feasible plan is to keep the skin of the home free from sweat and dirt, which induce itching; and also to allow theanimal to roll in soft ground when sweaty and tired. A roomy stall, with sides standing slanting up to the per­ pendicular walls, will also prevent this, but a box-stall will be the best prevent­ ive. Severe strains of the loins, even fractures of the h'p bones, and other disabilities, arc often the result of roll­ ing in the stall.. Lying iu the stall, at the extreme length of tbe halter, re­ sults in strains and sprains in the at­ tempt to rise. Kicking to one of the worst vices to which a borfe can become addicted. If the habit is not inveterate it is ebred by hanging a sack well stuffed with hay so It may strike the animal in the rebound from the kick. Let him kick thia innocent dummy until he is tired. Then he is nut to q’ult for ever. A hone that kicks from being touched by the whiffletree or other sub­ stance touching him should be immediately taken out of the vehi­ cle and allowed to kick until he be­ comes tired. The whiffletree should be padHed so m not to'seriously Injure him. It may then be lowered so as to touch his heeh when he moves. When he ceases to kick be ia generally cured entirely. Tbe remedy may seem se­ vere. but a kicking hone is worthless, because always moat dangerous. In lieu of the whiffletree a sack stuffed with hay may be suspended ao it will touch-h’is heels in the stable. But a confirmed kicker should be sold to work in a heavy team where he can not do much injury.—Chicago Tribune. Mummies' Eyeballs.

Sandy Point is a Chilian penal sta­ tion, and a large portion of tbe inhabit­ ants are exiles. When we were there the war was atill going on between Chili and Peru, and among the prison­ ers were two Americans, who had been captured in an attempt to blow up the Huascar with torpedoes. They came very near being executed, but wfere finally exiled. The Governor himself wan in a state of semi-exfie, and found life much more agreeable in Sandy Point than lie would have done in Val­ paraiso. Gold was discovered several years ago in the mountains about two miles from the village, and a quantity taken out by panning, but at that time there whs no excitement about it. I saw considerable in th© form of grains and small nuggets, the largest of which was about the size of an English walnut, and had been made into a watch cbarm. It was thought that some of the minea would prove to be very productive, if properly worked, but no one there seemed to have the money or energy to develop them. There Sb also a vein of, good coal about three miles from tbe village. It had been worked some a few years previously, and a railroad bad been built from the mine to the wharf but after war broke out with Peru it was neglected, tho wharf went to ruin and the railroad was destroyed. The only coal to be had there wai brought from England and a good price was charged for it. We coaled ship and were obliged to pay nineteen dol­ lars and fifty cents per ton and deliver it ourselves. The timber on the moun­ tains does not grow to a great height, but is of fine quality, and the trunks are of large diameter. During the wmnpr months it does not ra’n at all, but every winter a large quantity of anow and rain falls, bo that there are no dry years. The plains furnish excellent grazing, and the aoil will yield good crops. There is every reason to believe that it will become s good grain-producing country. I had read much about the great size of the Patagonian Indians, and thought the reports must be greatly exaggerated, but I found that they were true.

The position ot the Jews is Persia is a very painful one. They are under do protection. They are merely the perquisite of some subordinate officer of the local Governor. The principle is very simple. The Jews of a province are asaeswd at a tax of a certain amount Some one pays tela amount to the local Governor, together wite a bribe; and the wretehed Jews are im­ mediately placed under his authority for the financial year. It iA, a him pie speciation. If times are ''good, tbe farmer of the Jews makes a good profit; If they are had. he gains noth­ ing, or may fail to extract from them as much as he has paid out of pocket— in that case, woe betide them! During tho Persian famine the Jews suffered great straits before the receipt of the subsidies sent from Europe by their co­ religionists. The farmer of the Jew­ ish colony in a great Perwan city (of course, a Persian Mohammedan), hav­ ing seized their goods and clothes.pro­ ceeded. in the cold of a Perwtan winter, to remove the doors and windows oi their hovels and toj wantonly burn them. The farmer was losing money, and sought thus to enforve what bc eonsidered his rights.. No Persian Sitied the unfortunates; they were ews. and so beyond tbe pale of pitj\ Ever)' street boy raises his hand against the wretched Hebrew; he is beaten and bufleted iu the streets, spat upon in tin- bazaar. The ouly person he can appeal to is the farnwr the Jews. From him be will obtain a cer­ tain amount of protection if he be act­ ually robbed of money or goods, not from the farmer’s sense of justiee, but because the complainant, were hla wrong unrodrcvweo. might be unable to pay his share of the tax. At every public festival—even at the royal aaluam, before the King’s face— the Jews are collected, and a number of them are flung into the huus or tank, that King and mob may be amused by seeing them crawl, out half drowned nnd covered with mnd. The same kindly ceremony is witnessed when­ ever a provincial Governor holds high festival: there »ire fireworks and Jews. At every arrival of a new provincial Governor the Jews are com lulled to sacrifice an bx in his honor upon the high road at some distance from the town. The head man of the Hebrew community bas to rnn with the bleed­ ing head of the animal, imploring the Governor’s countenance and protec­ tion. until be is beaten oft bv the far~ rathrs. No child is missing for a few hours but the Jews are accused oi stealing it for sacrifice, and on such oc­ casions they are sbamefnlly beaten and robbed. Ko respect is paid to their wives and daughters. They are com­ pelled to live in a.' ••Ghetto,” crowded together, where the houses resemble the dens of animals rather than the, habitations of men.

Huddled together as they are. and living on tee poorest food, is' it to ba wondered at that tbe Jews of Persia are a pale and sickly race? The won­ der rather is that they exist at all. There are supposed to be nineteen thousand Jews in Persia. There is a AaAam-frosAt, or priest, to each large community. As a rule, this man alone, of all te« Jews, is not persecuted by the Persians, though he is subject to ill treatment in thebaoaara. Education Is nMohitely denied to the Jews. Of course, from their religion, the numer­ ous colleges of Persia are closed to them, as are the ordinary schools. Even the school of the Church Mission­ ary Society in Julfa is to them unavail­ able, for they would not dare to send their children there any more than would the Mohammedans. Converts to Mohammedanism from the Persian Jews aro very few. ^Generally they are women or girls who have been decoyed from their homes or married to Mussul­ mans under threats of violence. Such । on vers <m is-of Mttle worth, bnt tbs fear of death would, even after It, pre­ vent a relapse. The children of tbess marriage* arc termed Jedoeds. They are not Jooked down on by the Per­ sians. but rather favored than other­ wise. ’ The trades open to the Jews are brokerage; forking in tho. precious metals, in which they are very expert; dealing in precious stones; peddling; the selling of leeches, for which there Is a large demand; the making and sale on their promises of wine and arrack; music, singing and dancing (three professions only practised for hire in the East by thfe lowest of the low); the gianufacture of spurious an­ cient coins; -the practice of midwifery by the'women; and the cleaning of drains, cesspools etc., by the men (for when any unclean or filthy job is to be done Jews are sent for to do 1L) With all the disadvantages that they labor under in Persia, the Jews are fairly honorable. A Jew will never take* a false oath. A few of teem can read and write, and some possew a knowledge^ of Hebrew. Like the rest of their nation all over the world, they are very intelligent. Even in-Persia a stupid Jew does not exist; they may be ignorant, but that is 'their misfor­ tune. It may be asked ghydo not the Jews leave this veritable house of bomlage? Because they are not permitted, ex­ cept as * special favor, even to leave the district they are settled in. One favor they do eajoy in Persia; they are not compelled to serve in the army. The Jews of Persia are in the habit of making pilgrimages to the tombs of Esther and MordecaL who lie in a poor little shrine near Hamadan. These tombs are covered each by a wooden brew, rhiur^tws.

Ned Bantltne Relates Ills Adventures in th* CatakilU. / Not in your boots or mmo, I hope, food reader, for I don’t believe in the beverage that hatches that kind. But as the “season” has opened and snake atone# will be told by and to the sum­ mer boarders in the country, it is well to know something about Satan in scales. In the oold and lofty regions of the Catskills poisonous serpents are almost unknown. The hard winters are too much for them The striped or garter snake and tbe brown water snake# which hibernate early and come out only when the days grow long and warm, both harmless? are the only rep­ tiles seen-in those sections. But in lower altitudes the “rattler”and copperhead, the hissing adder and the horn-tailed snake, the latter scarce but very deadly, are found in certain sections of thia State. Much as I have hunted and fished in almost all the lakes and trout streams, and through the forests of the State, I never saw but one horp-tailed snake, though two wcre killed on Schoharie Creek a year or so ago. Last spring I was driving down the east branch of the Delaware, near Mar­ garetville, on a trouting expedition, and on a dug-way near the river I checked my horses a* I saw a snake over six feet long dart -down the bank and across the road in front of me. It went slow enough for me to get a good view of it. It had a small, vicious-look­ ing head, a rather Urge body and was ■triped in regular black and white rings —tho latter, 1 should judge, to be two inches wide. I held my horses in, for I felt no anxiety to sec a reptile like that mixed up among thelrj lega Its tail came out to a sharp bony point. I know in an instant that it was the horn-tail, and on describing It to an old citizen in the village lenmed it had been seen two or three times in the same vicinity. It was soon after killed and was the’only one ever heard of in that section. Another was killed on Alder Brook, in Ulster County, the same season. They have deadly noison in tbe horned tail, which they strike into a victim. 1 was fishing one day on the Beaveffkill and had ju*t thrown a trout out on the bank that would weigh near a quarter of a pound and istarted out to . pick it up for my basket. Before I reached it a brown water-snake, full four feet long, bad that trout cross­ ways in his mouth and was making off with it pretty fast when I drew my re­ volver and sent a ball through his neck, which destroyed his appetite for raw fish. I did not basket Jhe trout, however. r • . None of the water snakes of ovr Northern streams are venomous. The moccassin and cottonmouth of the Southern waters are as deadly a* the rattlesnake and in no way as chival­ rous. Tbe latter almost invariably give warning of its presence before it strikes. Therefore It is less Io be feared than its almost constant com­ panion—the “Pilot” or copperhead. Summer boarders, who choose cool, lofty a«d anti-malarial sections, if they avoid bad whisky need have no fear of snakes.—Ned Buntline, tn N. Y. World.

COOK. D A P A W L �Agricultural. KVGXJTB DA VKXPOUT, KAttwr. ven port. Woodland. Mich. When the editor of this department? was asked to take charge of an agricul­ tural column, his time was very fully occupied, and he has never yet taken time to introduce himself. He hereby makes his bow, and begs leave to say that his aim is to make the agricultural feature of the Banner of practical util­ ity to the farmers of Barry county. It will consist mainly ot clippings from the best agricultural, horticultural and stock publications of the day, with an occasional editorial item or voluntary contribution from readers of the Ban­ ner and others. Only such items and articles will be clipped as are thought tojossess genu­ ine merit. Articles will be admitted upon both sides of all mooted questions; The editor will not bo responsible for statements made in voluntary contribu­ tions. He reserves the right to review any and all communications. Let them he brief and to the point, and each will be given a fair hearing. Every effort will be made both by clippings and by editorial notes to ven­ tilate that class of frauds usually prac­ ticed upon farmers. The earnest co-op­ eration of all the Banner’ readers is urged to further this end. Further promises are not made. The future of this department Will speak for itself. Green Manuring, No. 2. In my former article I gave the advantages derived from "green manuring” from my stand point; also what a ton of clover hay took from the soil. In.proof of what "green manuring” does for wheat, 1 quote the following analysis of 20 bushels , (not 25 as the type made me say) of wheat and the straw thereof, from an essay of Araba Campbell, delivered before the N. Y., Dairymen’s Association, and leave the intelligent fanner to draw his own con­ clusions. Berry of 20 bn. wheat. Straw from name, Potashi..........................IB lbs. 6K lbs. Lime............................. H " 10 “ Soda.:........................ Magnesia......... :........ “ Sulphuric acid............ K " Phosphoric acid........... Silica or sand..............M “ In the above analysis it will be seen that only the berry has drawn from the soil minerals that will not be returned. 'The straw will be returned in the form of barnyard manure; its value depend­ ing altogether upon how it is converted into manure by the farmer. There are . two points in which I differ from Mr. Root’s article. The one as to the injur­ ious effects of “green manuring;” the other the filling the soil full of vegeta­ ble matter, causing seeding very diffi­ cult. Such is not the experience of the writer. The more vegetable molds in the soil, the more certain is seeding. I leave that for the more intelligent farmer to decide for himself. “Green manuring one-sided, rotation and stock-feeding a sure resource." I move to strike from the above caption that compound word "one-sided" and then I can agree with you. Statistics show that a fraction less than X of the Improved land in Barry county is an­ nually sown to wheat. With a con­ stant exhaustion of the minerals that produce a good yield, how to restore those minerals is the problem to be solved. 30 (not 35) years years ago, the writer in the miiqth of June, turned under 20 acres of clover in full bloom. At that time it was considered a new departure from the customs,, of the pi­ oneers. Then the improved farms were in a transitory state. The virgin soil by constant cropping had become in a measure exhausted. Seeding to clover nnd timothy had been resorted to but a few years. How to restore my farm and increase its fertility was of vital importance to me. 1 resorted with good results to “green manuring.” In conclusion, as wheat, corn, oats, barley v and hay draw different minerals from the soil and in different proportions by “green manuring,” rotation and stock­ feeding, the taking from our lands of any of the above crops will leave it’in better condition than before for suc-> coeding crops. A. C. T, The above beautiful sentiment heads the circular setting forth the merits of a stock food steamer and evaporator, which is being introduced into this county. This wonderful apparatus will,so the agents say—successfully cook grain, hay or stalks for cattle, boil cider to jelly or sap to sugar, scald hogs, cook the dinner for the family, wash carpets and bed clothes, dry fruit all in one pan. Wonderful implement! The farmer is astounded to learn that cooking food for stock increases its nutritious value by forty per cent, because it •equalizes the starch, sugar gluten, al­ bumen, etc. Again we exclaim, won­ derful! ! Among other authorties quoted' to prove the advantage of cooking food is the Agricultural college of this state. This is a libel on that noble institution. The plan of work is to sell about six to one party and make of him sort of local agent and depot of supplies. Our ad­ vice is to give tardy ear to the glib statements of thaw two gentlemen who circulars to farmers and others, in which it proposes to make arrange­ ments with the recipient by which he shall become possessed of their proctas of making butter, by which all the .■nutritious elements of the milk are "consolidited into a mass of pure, wholesome batter.” This increases the yield from 25 to 50 per cent., above the ordinary process. Query, do you be­ lieve that .’di the nutritious elements of the milk “can be consolidated into pure butter”? Would it be a good qualily of cheese, or something worse? Preserving Fresh Fruit.—When in London, in the summer of 1882, the fruit dealers were inclined to make sport of our American ignorance, upon our asking questions in regard to the plump and fresh appearance of ripe tomatoes from Spain and France. Each tomato was wrapped in double folds of tissue paper soaked insalicvlic acid, and the interspaces in the crates were filled with fine paper clippings which had also been saturated with the acid. Other French, Spankh and Italian fruits we found were treated in the same way. In the shops of retailers only a few show speeftnena were taken out such as wanted! by customers were replaced from this crates. Agirfn last winter at New Orleans, the exhi­ bits of pears, apples, etc., from France were opened in line Condition. Upon inquiry we found the wrappers and packing in which they came hail been saturated with salicylic acid. A few American shippers of apples to Liver­ pool have learned this lesson, but as yet it is kept as a trade secret. Now that the voice of the peripatetic tree agent is heard in the land, a word of advise may not be out of place. He will appear with his beautiful picture book in his hand and his charming specimens in glass (generally made of wax) and, getting your ear. he will deal out his entrancing stories by the hour. His new varieties of apples bear crops every year and repel the attacks of the codhn moth and canker worm. His grapes never mildew or rot and would ripen in Siberia or Alaska. No curculio ever'attacks his newest plums. The pear tree he offers has never been known to blight and is of superlative excellent It hardly seems necessary to say much about these beautiful stories, but we may be pardoned for reiterating a some­ what stale fact. The man who tells you he has a pear tree which never rots, mildews or winter kills, a plum which the curculio never attacks, simply lies and he knows it, if he is not an entirely green hand in the business. Get only trees and vines that are known to be fairly successful, when you plant an orchard or a vineyard. Send to nursery­ men for their catalogues and you will generally find them much more reliable than the men who represent them. Do not buy largely of untested varieties, but if you have time and money test them in a small way, if your tastes run in the direction of novelties. Read the Farm Guide chiefully and you will genreally find yourself posted as to what you want. And when a man offers you a variety of which the Farm Guide has never spoken, you will generally be safe in letting ft alone, Winds nnd Weather. Dairy World. The Farmers’ Club of the American Institute has issued the following rules for foretelling weather. If farmersand others whose business is out doors and depends upon the weather will study them closely they will be able to guess the weather more accurately than Wig­ gins or Vennor: ’ 1. When the -temperature falls sud­ denly there is a storm forming south of you. 2. When the temperature rises sud-( denly there is a storm north of you. 3. The wind always blows from‘a re­ gion of fair weather toward a region where a storm is forming. region of fair weather. 5. Cumulus clouds always move from a region of fair weather to a re­ gion where a storm Is forming. 6. Where cirrus clouds are moving rapidly, from the north or northeast, there will be rain inside of twenty-four hours, no matter how cold it is. 7 When cirrus clouds are moving rapidly from the south or southeast, there will be a cold rain storm on the morrow, if it be in the winter, there will be a snow storm. 8. The wind always blow's in a circle around a storm, and when it blows from the north, the heaviest rain is east pf you; if it blow’s from the south, the heaviest rain is west of you; if it blows from the east the heaviest rain is south of you; if it blows from the west, the heaviest rain is north of you. 9. The wind never blows unless rain or snow is falling within 1,000 miles of you. 10. Whenever heavy white frost oc­ curs, a storm is forming within 1,000 miles north or northwest of you. Cirrus clouds are those which have a thin, streaming look, sometimes appear­ ing like hair or carded wool, and some­ times like a bnrah or broom. They are the hignest of“all the clouds. Cumulus clouds are those which appear in round rolling massespiled one above another, and sometimes looking like great mountainstopped with snow. ' Repititiou is sometimes the only way to impress a truth upon the mind. Ac­ cordingly take notice that Dr. Pierce’s “Pleasant Purgative Pellets,” (the orig­ inal little liver pills) continue to be. wonderfully effective in cases of Rich, and nervous headache, constipation, in­ digestion, rush of blood to the head, cold extremities, and all ailments aris­ ing from obstruction of the bodily functions.

COOK, Editor. Habtinos, Mich., Oct. 8th, 1885. » Kntered at the Poatoffice nt Hastings. Mich, for transmlsslou through the mails aa second EDITORIAL NOTES. The democratic organization is, wo fear, very nearly as far gone as was the whig paaty in 1848. It worked out its one idea years and years ago. A por­ tion ot ft carrying that one idea to a treasonable extreme in 1860, brought on a revolution which pretty nearly des­ troyed all it had to live for. Democratic disserisionj brought in the whigs in ’48; democratic dissension brought in the republicans in I860; and republican dis­ sension brought in the democrats in 1885. But during all this time since 1848 the democratic party has never been thoroughly united in principles, has never conceived and advanced one paramount idea for which its factions were ready to sacrifice their £etty dif­ ferences. While it was rugged and stubborn still, it had passed the prime of life, liad survived the period of growth, had commenced ttie period of decay, had experienced the “change of life" and it was no longer capable of conception. It is in that condition that an accident, for which it deserves no credit, briars it back to office; but the possession of the office only serves to make its decrepitude, its barrenness, its impotence, all the more painfully con­ spicuous. It-comes into power with no new idea to advance, no great principle to apply to the present exigencies of the nation. It can only mumble over old formulas and recall its lost youth, and point to the political fecundity of its ' mature virility, when, wedded to the republic, it. brought forth offspring I kworthy of its spouse. On every vital ’ of ^ie dilY18 hopelessly divid­ . For the last quarter of a century fhat it has been out of power, it has dealt almost exclusively in negations.

When the present administration came into power, it was asserted the “rascally republicans" had been stealing millions of the people’s money.

It is evident that the fools are not all dead, as the folio wing from the Detroit Foot, ’fully proves: On Sunday, in­ Montreal, a religious procession in St. Mary’s parish marched througl; the ■ worst small-pox districts of the city chanting prayers for deliverance from • the scourge. The procession washead• ed by a priest with a crucifix followed by 300 school Imys, then by 300 little girls, then by 600 young women, then by 2,000 workingmen, then by mothers leading their childern, then by a prom­ iscuous crowd. There were over 10,000 persons in the procession. They passed by and halted in front of dozens of houses where recent deaths from small­ pox have occurred, and scores where the disease is now raging, and from these houses persons sick and well came out to greet the procession. Such a proceeding, needlessly expos­ ing thouandstoan awful scourge, many of them innocent children, is worse than idiotic; it is absolutely criminal. It is a sad showing for the intelligence of the people of Montreal that such a perfor­ mance was permitted. 1 can sell you a WARDWELL SEWED BOOT, which 1 will warrant not to rip, at the same 1 n c as a peg boot.

Goodyear & Barnes display of carpets 1 waa especially noteworthy. K. K. Grant, the live clothier, was at jthe front as usual with samples of suits and furnishing goods. A. R.

In order to get out of debt this year, the premium list was. cut down fully ione-third. For this reason the display was not quite equal to former years. Now that the society is out of debt, the ]premiums wilki lie largely increased ;again. The weather all through was favora­ ble, and the attendance unusually largo - especially Thursday.

THE FARMER EO'TOR. Crsa Hili "I bolero.” Ui<l Mr. Colaos, raining the carriage, to face the larger portion of his audience, ’that I had sooner write editorials than be a farm hand. When I was a boy I came to the conclu­ sion that I would strike out on my own responsibility; that I would carve out a line of action in contact with the world at once worthy and commendable. 1 left home when I was a good .chunk of a boy and drifted around on the surface of nature some time before 1 located my claims and pre-empted a fondness for good square up and up work. I appren­ ticed myself to a farmer tor $12 a month, board and washing. Prior to locating with the farmer I had followed several calii ng q but I was dissatisfied with each and an of them. Among the number being butcher, painter, singing teacher and member of a Bible class in Sundayschool. . ' “When I entered into contract with the fanner, he said: ‘Ned, whatever vou do, do it well. If you milk the cow in the morning, exact the last bit of royalty from her. if vou feed the stock in’the evening, donrt give them too ‘much food, for it may tie them up like the contortionist you see displayed on •the circus poetcis; if you shook!' be called uj>on to get up before daylight nnd hunt for it with a candle, don’t complain. Ned,* don’t complain; re­ member that the corly’bird cutches the wurni. and that the early Larin hand is a source of joy to his employe:. E*t whatever is-set'before-vou and never complain if there is no butter upon the table, when it is selling for fifty cents a pound.” Th s was my initiation into tire duties of a fanner. . I bad hired to the fanner hue in the afternoon, and when supper was ready 1 made u grand charge, in company with three others, upon the banquet hall. We sat down to a supptor of c.dd pork, potatoes, and plenty of skimmed milk. From the outset I wm affected with’ a disinclination to eat; I couldn’t ent; that was all there was about it. After supper the farmer said: ’Ned; go out to the barn and help milk. Look out for the brindle cow, she is a little troublesome.sometimes, but I think you can manage her.’ Armed with tke milk pail 1 repaired to the born andconfronted the brindle cow. “The brindle cow had a child-like simplicity look in her eye. There was a striking difference in her character— as I afterward found out—more than in any cow that I had ever seen before, or have ever seen since. She was raised in Texas and grow up on the freedom of the country, until she was just enter­ ing girlhood, when she immigrated to California and became the property of my employer. I approached her with a great deal of caution- She ba^a nervous wav ot switching her tail and picking up her right hind foot that J didn't like and felt solicitous about. 1 carefully put mv hand on the cow's 'loins and solaced heV with those gentle words, ’so, Brindle, so.’ She seemed to like the affection which I displayed. I fondled her until I thought die coast was clear and 1 could get in my work and richly earn my salary. “I commenced milking, but somehow or other no milk rewanted my labor. The brindle cow evidently was aware that I was a new hand upon the ranch. 1 made one great exprtion to exact the fluid from her. The brindle cow—as 1 was afterwards informed—nervouslv picked up her right hindleg and gently tied a knot in my abdomen.

Tp tell you the truth, I didn't know it was loaded. “In the middle of the night erf the same evening that this accident hap­ pened. I was rudely awakened by the farmer placing his band upon my bruised legs, saying: • Ned. it’s time to get up; come, rouse youreelf.’ I thought in my ’ waking moment* that tho brindle cow bad again struck me. Getting up, I lighted the tallow candle in ro.v boudoir and laborious!v pulled on my trowsera, or what was left of them. Coming down stairs, the farmer said: ’Ned, as vou had poo: luck in the dairy last night, you can wrestle with the wood-pile awhile be­ fore bnmkfaAt.’ As I wont out doors a little faint streak in the eastern horiwn foretold that in the course of three or four hours the sun would illuminate the surface of nature.

In twenty minutes the ruin of this ptare was complete. Win­ dows were sniAhed and doors destroyed, counters inside were ruined, and tho furni­ ture was broken.' The mob then proceeded to tbo City Hall where they evidently Intended mischief, from expressions uttered: “Down with the Council!" “Kill the vaccinators!” “Burn tho town!" “Hang the English!” were heard ou every hand. Arriving at tho City Hall the crowd began a furious onslaught on tho public, buildings. Tbo Central Po­ lice Station is hero located, but few police­ men were present, tho most being at tho cast end of the town, where u riot had been anticipated. Stones were thrown, and soon overv window In the spa­ clous structure was broken. Revolvers were drawn and somo twenty shots were fired, when the police appeared, they at once re­ turning the lira. Tbe inob numbered now several thousand. Tlie entire police force of the city was summoned to tho scene, and after a hard fight dispersed the mob, who went up the street vowing vengeance on “the d----- d English paper which favored vaccination.” Tho officers afterward sur­ rounded the building nnd prepared to dofend IL Tlie Mayor, in the meantime, had been sent for. and was busy detailing special po­ licemen to.protect the lives and property of citizens. The crowd now left the vicinity of the city hall and proceeded down St James street to Victoria Square, where the Dotty Herald is situated. Hero somo 2,­ 000 or 2,500 roughs bad gathered, and in a twinkllqg tho windowsof thoestablishment were smashed in with stones and dubs. Tho volley was returned by the pressmen. A squad of fifty police, under Chief Para­ dise, dispersed tlie raiders. Subsequently tney came together again aud went to Alderman Grenier’s bouse. Tho aldermau has always been a firm sup­ porter of the vacclnatiwr theory. The mob demolished everything about the premises which was breakable. Then they went ’« Dr. LaChappolle’s house. He Is a member of Hie I’rovindal Board of Health. They broke bis windows nnd repeated their riot­ ous acta at the bouse of LaBerge, medical health officer, aud Dr. Larocks, public vac­ cinator. The windows were smashed and Uie premises despoiled. Montkeal, Canada, Oct 1. — Tho Mayor called a meeting of the City Coun­ cil Tuesday afternoon, nnd during Its ses­ sion be said that threats had boon made to bum down tho Exposition Buildings, which were yesterday morning taken possession of ' for n hospital.

Tho re­ quisition was atfdreased to Lieutenant­ Colonel A. A. Stevenson, of the Montreal Field Battery.

A magistrate was sent with each detachment to road the Riot act If neces­ sary. The force called out numbers L840 men rank and file. About nine o’clock Tues­ day night crowds began to throng the prin­ cipal streets, and a few* minutes later that section of the city lu the vicin­ ity of tho city ball was densely packed. Tliis news was conveyed to the Mayor, and ho informed General Stevenson that he must dlspcrao tbo mob by tbc aid of tbc niilitin. An order was at once given for the troopi to form ity march ing order, eight abreast and led by tbe cavalry under Captain Claphani they started down the street for the scene of tho disturbance.

With it their happiness is more in their own hand.*, a:.(l thus it « found that most divorces are among the class of people who st II iio'd te> th.- custom of an idle life for women. In olden time?*, to marry was considered nlmo|t as wire a fate as •to die. The fanner’s rosy daughter spun the Hax or patted the ’butter into shape with a sweet smile playing about her pretty lips, for soon she knew she would in her own home pat her ov/r butter and spin her own tlax. In the city, the belle lounged through the day among flowers nnd perfumed notes front n.any adorers, unable to decide which should be her choice, yet positively certain of choosing one. But in *ye olden , time’’ it was considered a point e! extreme honor to be true to one’s sweet­ heart. If one were false to every one aise. one must be true to one’s lover. In these days honor is almost a lost art. . T6 be able to deceive is cdhsiilered an evidence of greatest exceltence. Tc believe what one is told, to trust the honor of a given word, is considered as almost imbecile innocence aud sim­ plicity. To-day there is no considera­ tion but advantage. Will it bd a step k further on in a worldly way, is the question which presents itself. Some­ times the answer is positively in the negative, if I may be allowed the term, and very often it is doubtful. The loveafter-marriage literature of the day e fair sign of the times. To marry for advantage or convenience, and after­ ward to love “for love’s sake only,” is the most accepted plot of the' more recent works. And this reacts upon society with a subtlety equal to that ot the flower pollen which has been dis­ covered by Dr. Mackenzie to be the cause of hay-fever. Ono can not sec its action, yet the result is there. The want of trust and sanctity in the marriage tie, the free opening to women of other interests and sources of happiness, and her increasing ability to stand alone, • are some of the causes which are filling our laud with single, but capable anc useful women.—Margaret Madden.

Among other mammals the femal« element wields the scepter in family life, but in tho realm of apes the male is in­ vested with the sovereign power, not'by general suffrage, but by tjje right ol force. Hie oldest and strongest male of a troop proclaims himself chief and leader, after having vanquished all hil competitors. The longest teeth and tlie strongest arms decide in the ques­ tion of supremacy. All those whe show* reluctance to submit are chastised till they come to reason. To the strong: est belongs the crown; In his sharp teeth resides his wisdom. This feroeioijl tyrant understands his duty ns a leaner, ahd performs the same with dig­ nity. His subordinates flatter and fon­ dle him in every way. As a genuine Pasha, hi? accepts this respect with u kind of languid acquiescence. In return he watches carefully over his vassals, and shows a continual anxiety for their welfare and security. He orders nnd directs minute details in daily life. Tlie female monkey gives birth to one young one, ven'seldom to twins. The new-born nionkey’is a little ugly creatnru, bare ol hairs, with spindling limbs and a repul­ sive. senile face. But the mother is pas­ sionately fond of her monster, and earesseri and nurses it with remarkable devoton. She does not leave it for a single moment, she, presses it to her heart, rocks It to ant! fro, nnd takes th* utmost care to keep it absolutely clean. In the first period of life the baby is apat hetic and almost Insensible, but be­ gins gradually to play with urchins of its age. The mother w a patient obsen'er of the first steps of her beloved, and watches carefully that no harm may befall it. In tlie meantime she trains it. and the first virtue inculcated in the mind of the youngster is obe­ dience. pbedionco in the strictest sense of the word. Men have ridiculed the mater?al afi’cetion of tbe brute, and sjK-ak of “apish love.” In our eyes the temlernes ; exhibited byt he monkey may have a ridiculous side, but where is the iniw who could, without deep emotion, witness the anxiety of a motlipr-ape nufsing her sick chihl. I must confess that, to my eye. in such cases sbo is at least the equal of lhe human mother. If the young aja? d’es. the spectacle is a piteou; ouo. 'I'he mother cannot be separated from the dead body, refuses all food, anti freqently perishes from gr t'. In such crises the ape proves cer­ tainly hi* congeniality with the human race.* and in his moral nfieotions could stand as on example to many mon.— A’aturc. Fire!

An invitation is extended to all. * The regular quarterly tea meeting in connection; with the W. F. M. 8. of the M. E. church, will be entertained at the residence of Mrs. Wm. Jones, on Green street, next Wednesday afternoon and evening. The exercises consisting of an interesting literary programme will begin at 3 ji. m., followed by the annual election of officers for the ensuing year. Refreshments will be served from 5:30 to 7 p. in. A cordial invitation is ex­ tended to all. Those having mite boxes will please bring them at this time, us the treasurer desires to complete the annual report. Oub readers have not forgotten the circumstances that made it necessary for almost two years for the Banner to accept the kindly offer of the pub­ lisher and proprietor of the Democrat of the use of their press. Our former quarters were far too small, and very inconvenient. Still we “did our level best." Our friends were many, and royal good ones too. They numbered men of an parties. Despite the difflculculties under which we labored, our suUscriptinn list rapidly advanced in numbers. Our advertising and job­ work patronage largely increased. We addfed constaiiUy to our outfit in the way of type and machinery on the “pay as you go plan.” An op­ portunity for buying a press pre­ sented itself, and we closed the bargain. Although we had npt all the ready cash to pay down, we made the first payment, and shall rely on those subscribers who owe us to fur­ nish the balance when needed. We know they win not disappoint us, and now ask thenvto call at our new quar­ ters and adjust their accounts. The Banner “bag and iiaggage” is now transferred to our new and commodious Offices in Abstract block, and we venture the assertion that there is not in the state a morel complete or compact coun­ try printing office. We shall continue to improve the Banner, and make it approach more nearly the ideal of a lo­ cal paper. As it is, in the matter of Hastings happenings, county and gen­ eral news, it has no superiors. lOHALUEWGB. —Hickory Cornera, Oct. Ctb, 18M.

A Now Yorker who was in Now Jersey last fall found a number of men dig­ ging a ditch between two small lakes in a park. •‘I don’t see the object,” he observed, after surveying the work for a while. “No.” dryly answered the bow. “The lakes are too shallow to be navigated.0 “wJir “And tho ditch can’t be of any use except to the fish.” “McbbenoL’’ “Say !’• called the nettled New Yorker, “what is tho object of your infernal old ditch, anyhowr* ' "To issue $100,000 worth of bonds on.” "-a»the calm repiy.— H’oH Street Dudy .Vewz. -T^Ufamia papers state that John W.

But such, alas! ia not the fact, aa can be conclusively shown by the presenta­ tion of statistics carefully prepared, at considerable expense, and which will be given in detail farther on. tThe mo<t serious evidence of the de­ cline in our National humor is shown In the paucity of fresh subjects; there haring been in the first four months of 1885 tat eleven new subjects used in the construction ot newspopori&l wit, oCainst fatty-seven in the corresponding four months of last* year; an while several topics which were onoe under constant treatment have sunk into desuetude and are now no more heard than if they had never been, it is also truo that scores of other favorite marks for the shafts of the- funny men have shown a gradual falling off in para­ graphic favor. • The stove-pipe joke is a notable in­ stance of the former class just alluded to. the class which has utterly disap­ . peered. This mirth-excitant, which in the year 1875 reached the marvelous proportions of 2,764 paragraphs pfer month, or 88.163 during the entire year, had fallen off in 1884 to 95 per month, or 380 during the first four mouths of the. year. while for the corresponding jieriod of 1885 but 17 cases have been recorded, an average of only 4j per month. A similar, though not so excessive, fulling off is shown bv many other old ptand-bys; notably, the mother-in-law, the.cake of soap on the stairs, the oldest Mason, and so forth.1 But wo have lhe figures handy.' Let us consult them. During the first third of 1884 the moth­ er-in-law formed the subject of 4,987 paragraphs or articles, whereas the cor­ responding term of the present year can jinast of hut 215, and 214 of these are ' essentially repetitions. Goat and the Hrcim poster. 1884. -3,861; 1885, 24. Old­ est Mason, 1884 . 841; 1885. 53. And here are several more, the first figure indicating the number of times a Joke was utilized from January to April, both inclusive, in 1884, and the second figure referring to the number of appearances during the first four months of the pres­ ent year: . Messenger boy, 4,231, 4,209; oyster. 1774, 797; dude, 5,649, 34; hair in the butter. 1,423,6 (which, by the way. is six times too many); big hat at the theatre. 1,262, 48; game of poker. 1.812. 135; whisky drinking, 4,831,3,560; hoarding­ house hash, 8,112, 124; strong butter, 2,076, 111 (oleomargarinenotinchided); Chicago girl’s over-nutrition of pedal extremities, 3,125, 2,008; cake of, soap on stairs. 488. 21: coal-hole cover. 976, 43; banana skin. 816. 27; editor and poet, 3,265, 2,003; green apples. 4, 1 (not in season); iceman. 4,981. 2,605; plumber, 9.871,6.432; picnic, 401. SO (rush usually comes later): Niagara hackman. 776, 614; bent pin, 7,671,2,484; umbrella, 7.841, 2,482: watermelon (out of sea­ son). 148, 1X5. In almost every instance it -ytiU be seen that there has been great disparity in the present year’s figures its com­ pared with those’of the year preceding. The messenger boy. it is true, has very nea^y held his own. and no excessivelymarked falling off is noticed in whisky drinkiug or the Chicago girl’s feet. The wouderiul divergence which is shown in tbe figures relating to the dude is to be explained by the tact that he a novelty in the paragraphic field last year; but, thank heaven, he is a short­ lived creature, as our statistics show, and haply after another year he shall ibe heard of no afore forever. Jokes on love-making, matrimony, millinery, twins, divorce and kindred Accidents, inseparable from one’s earthly pilgrimage, hold their timehonored places. They always have been and always will be, world without end; .therefore It has not been thought •worth while to collect data regarding them. Aud for other but equally oogent •reasons, no notice has been taken of alleged witticisms on deaths by drown­ ing or other adventitious means. Neither has any account been made of poronomasia. Punning is not joking, and a new pun is well-nigh an im­ possibility. From our statistics, then, it will be seen that there has been a marked de­ cline in almost every department of American humor; anil wo have by no means exhausted the evidence whiten we have at hand. We have only jgiven a few samples of a very large invoice. Which we might draw upon almost* without limit. But in this general decline it is pleas­ ant to know that there is one subject at least which has come forward to paritially make up for what has boon lost. Need we say we refer to the roller skate? During tho first four months of 1884 the roller skate was the foundation of but three paragraph during the oar­ responding period of 1885 at has fur­ nished the raison d'etre ot 17,864 witti­ cism* of different lengths and of various quality. Therefore, providing there shall bo no increase in the monthly re­ turns (and the probabilites all point in an opposite, direction) there will be, during tbe entire year, 214,868 mirthful allusions to the skating rink set before the realtors of American newspapers. Finaliv, then, white deploring the de­ cline of American humor in general, tet US thank Heaven and taka courage. In view of the marvelous possibilities presented by tbe roller skates, and let us all pray that this last bulwark of our Nation’s wit may forever withstand the wear aud tear of time and the strain of constant and continual use.—Boston Transcript. ____ __ A. voting man became involved in a difficulty, and in an evil moment acMptod. cbxlleogo.

The quality of hay is fair, but is not quite equal to timothy and clover, nor will it produce so much on newly-seeded land, but it has the advantage of permanency, while timothy needs frequent renewal. For the farmer who has grain land and follows rotation of crops, his land lying in (grass only two years in succession, there Is little to recommend orchard over timothy, for the quantity and quality of product on such frequent seeding is usually las. I have a/field which was seeded on wheat in the spring of ’83 where eight pounds red ciov.er was sown, four quarts timothy, and two bushels orchard grass per acre. The Geld has been twice mown—in *84 and ’85—and the aftermath pastured. The first crop of hay was 50 per cent or more clover; the second mowing, that of *85, had very little clover, but about equal parts of timothy and orchard grass, and now the aftermath appears to be wholly of orchard grass, which will doubtless prevail the foHowing season. From such experience I draw the conclusion that where grass is the leading interest of the farm, and the plough is used to remove and reseed the grass, giving but Httle importance to grain-growing, orchard grass has much to recommend it above timothy and perhaps above other grass common to our State for hay and pasture. Ilere in Western New-York, however conditions are somewhat different; grain-growing is a leading interest above grass-growing; hence we give preference to clover and timothy, both . for the cheaper seeding and the equally good or better return for the time our lands lay in grass, seldom more than two years, and commonly but one year. In Eastern and Central New-York, as well as in New-England, it would seem to me that orchard grass would be valuable above others in common culti­ vation. Some practical writers on grasses have given prominence to it under aU circumstances;' one says he never knew a fanner to try it who fail­ ed to continue its use, as preferable to timothy and clover. But I think that the grain-grower who expects to seed land every fourth or fifth year, to lay in grass but two years, will hardly be persuaded to pay 88. or $10' per acre for orchard grass and clover seed, when timothy and clover for a Hke seeding will cost but one-eighth of that amount, with the prospect of an equal return for the period he wishes it to stay.

H. k GOODYEAR & SONS JEWEL STOVES & RANCES A Point of Grammar. American Garden. Excepting the always open question of the potato scab, there seems to be nothing so embarrassing to some per­ sons as t,o find the correct plural of some names of plants. While they have no hesitation in using apparatuses, prospectuses, etc., for the plural of ap­ paratus, prospectus, etc., when it comes to the plural of Gladiolus, Narcissus, Cactus, etc., what shaH it be ? Many botanical names although orig­ inally of Latin or Greek derivation, are to-day as completely adopted into the English language ;is are thousands of other foreign words, and when once so recognized there is not the sUghtest rea­ son why they should not be subject to to the rules of EngUsh grammar. Glad­ iolus is not any more Latin than Geraium, Calla, Fuchsia, etc., and if the plu­ rals of the latter are Geraniums. Callas, Fuchsias,and notGerania, CaHea, Fuchalae, then surely the plural of Gladiolus is Gladioluses and not GladloU. Gladi­ oluses, Narcissuses, Cactuses, etc., may sound a little less euphonious than Glad­ ioli, Narcissi, Cacti, etc., yet this can be no excuse for violating the English lan­ guage. Custom has in some measure sanctioned the use of the singular form for the plural also, for the sake of eu­ phony, so that it is admissible to say: “a bed of Gladiolus, Cactus, etc.,” but to apply foreign endings to English words is neither ‘ correct English nor good taste.* _______ wm Jml Cui Sim.

EDITOR BANNER: Having promised you before leaving Hastings that I would write you upon my arrival here, hasten to make my promise good. 1 arrived here on Fri­ day last, via Delaware, Lackawanna & Western R. IL from Buffalo. By the way, I deaire to speak briefly ..of the above named road. It is well known that it is a new road, having been built only about three years; and 1 must say it is the finest road I ever rode over. There must have been extra care taken in ballasting it, for one can scarcely feel a jar whilst passing over it at a rate of nearly or quite fifty aniles an hour. There is an immense amount of traffic, and the number of people pass­ ing over thia line is, I believe, unsur­ passed by any in this country. I did not expect to find things here as 1 left them thirty years ago, by any means, but I did expect to ate suimdthing rec­ ognizable.-but even in that I was dis­ appointed, except it lie these everlasting hills. They are here, and 1 presume they were put here to stay. In inquir­ ing after friends whom I left here a third of a century ago, my heart fairly sank within me at the answers. I would inquire where is A? dead! where is By dead! where is C? dead! where is D? dead! and finally, I ceased asking after old friends, as it made me feel homesick and sad at heart. Oc­ casionally, however, 1 would run across one whom I had known many years ago, but where there was one there were scores who have joined the great majority. I am stopping at present at the Brooks’ house, mine host being my honored father’s youngest brother. He is the only uncle I have left on my father's side, and 1 believe I have none on the jiide of my mother. Crops were tine here this season, so 1 am informed, in fact the best they have been in years. They corn crop is exceptionally good, and so is potatoes with the ex­ ception that' they have begun to rot quite extensively. I notice the apple crop is really fine, many trees bending almost to the ground under the weight of the fruit. I shall leave here for Tioga county, Pennsylvania, sometime the latter part of the, week, to visit my eldest brother, who. is on the same farm he has occu­ pied for forty-five years. It was there too where I lived-from the time I was eight years of age till I went to Michi­ gan in the year 1854. Will not take up any more of your valuable space this time, but will write you again from my old home in Penn­ sylvania. . ’ . Yours ever. G. H. BROOKS. Thursday evening, C. L. • Walrath and C. H.

But at the same time we think the people of Barry county desire the widest pro&dble publicity of the proceedings of the supervisors, and the newspapers can give it, and have al­ ways given it at actual cost, and some­ times at a loss.

Hon. John H. Oberly Gives HU Views of the Present System end the Policy of the Lake Mohoxk, N. Y.. Oct. 10.—John IL Oberly, Superintendent of Indian Schools, under Secretary Lamar, delivered an impromptu address yesterday before toe Indian Civilization Conference here. It re­ lated principally to the management of Indian educatlqual affairs under the present Administration. Un said that when be entered upon his duties he found no system prevailed, and many of the teachers were nut suitable per-, sons. He declared his Intention of grad-' ually weeding out the incompetent ones and filling their places with good Demo­ crats. He condemned toe present system of teaching. The list of text-books lobe foutyUln Indian schools Is a quarter of a m Herlong, and embraces toe works ot everyRepublican school-book publisher in toe country. He did not think much of this pretended text-book educa­ tion. He would teach toe Indian not only the simple rudiment*, but what might be called politics—the structure of the Govemmeut; his rights of property and person; the wrong system of his fathers, and how to work and earn a« living. He did not think much of teaching boys trades which they could not utilize. After edu­ cating the boys he suggested teaching them cattle-raising, allowing them to contract with white men to take herds on their reservations and return them when called for, all the work on tho reservations to be done by Indians. He also favored assisting theui to raise cattle for themselves. Mr. Oberly said lu coiicluslpn: '* I hope to make some radical changes, for I believe that only through toe school-house can the Indian bo led into the light of civilization.” Tho conference adopted a series of resolutions as a plat­ form.

Balzer’s yesterday aftdrnoon, nnd was exhibited to a num ber of interested customers of the shop An old German barber who keeps a chair in the south end was "cupping” f patient. The process had. of course, been often heard of, but never seen by any present- The luun upon whom the art was being practiced was sitting in a bathtub, ana attached to his skin were no less than twenty-eight small glass cup?, which had been applied tQ all parts of his body by tho doctor barber. The skin had been nut or scarified un­ der each, and the blood was slowly oGz’ng out into the cups. .The applica­ tions were made by Spelling the air from the cupa by means of heat, and quickly prcWng them upon the man’s jieraon. Tire towh was drawn up into tho cup by the pressure of the air, and the blood extracted by a sort of suc­ tion. . "Cupping” was formerly part of the profession of every barber in Germany, and from iLcame the sign ot lhe red, blue and white pole, the colors being sup­ posed to represent arterial and veinous Mood, and pure health, respect’vely. It was approved by reputable physic’ans, though not when done to such an ex­ tent as lu the case of yesterday. It was used mostly for local troubles, nnd not for wholesale blood-letting. It is now seldom done in thia country, though English doctors sometimes prescribe it. —C'olumbta (O.) Stale Journal. Eunsr.

I by toe destth of Congressman K!b Fire named Itichard Bi*bop. of McHenry, St/Louis, Mo., Oct 11.—Riot and blood­ shed - was the order of Friday in the street-car strike during both Um, morning and the aftemoun. On several of toe lines. In full sight of the police, the striker* slopped the cars and turned 'them over. This occurred at noon on Cass avenue, and seven cars were actually torn to pieces on Choteau avenue. The root and sfiles were lorn from three cars. The strikers were charged whenever Urey made an attempt to stop the cars, aud In Uie riots which ensued several persons were Injured. Tho first life taken was that of John Haney, one of tlte striking drivers uf the Green line. Police < >liicers Hannon and Griffith, who claimed that thu shooting of Haney was done In self-defense, are not borne out In their statement by eye-witnesses, who ray that Haitey was ratuilni: away, with an of­ ficer in pursuit The latter caught Haney, threw him down, and w*s beating him, when Officer ihuuion came up and shot Haney,.killing hhu at once. . At noon a serious ik-monstration was made by the strikers agn&4 cars passing i along the Twelfth street bridge. About fifty ot toe strikm were scattered at Uie i/rtli end of the bridge, mid when* Gravols -line car approa* htsl they •si.ddeiily. and npparuntiy in obedience lJ a precoilcertrwl sig­ nal, concentrated around Uie car ami made an attack upon it There were very few imssengere on board, , and these .very hastily left the car. The driver succertted in mak­ ing his escape, but the conductor was less fortunate. He rushed for the front p'.atfonn, but was caught there by tne strikers, who pummeled him unmerci­ fully, and then tore him from tho car. After having kicked him unconscious and liberated the cat horses, the gang, by this time largely augmented, made a rush south along tlie bridge, and at a point about seventy-five yards south of the Union depot camo up with a white car and attacked it The conductor and driver had tied, and the affrighted passengers were fast making their escape, when the attacking party seized Uie horses, cut the • traces »«'! by beating lhe animals wito the car look sent them flying along toe bridge. They then masseti themselves upon the west side of the car and with a united effort turned it over upon toe eastern track. Shortly before noon trouble broke out almost simultaneously on the People’s line and on Uie Union Depot line. A gang of men whom officers declared to be street-car employes started in to wreck tne People’s lino at Fourth and Choteau avenue. As near as could be estimated before toe crowd of spectators assembled there were fully thirty or forty men In the wrecking force. The first assault was made on car Na 17. which was running down town with a loud of passengers. The men called to the j>assengerx to get out. Severn! jumped on Uie front platform, nnd, strikiturthe driver two or three times, threw him off the car. slipped the pin out and.started the horses on a full run.

Warner, who secured the most of the funds of the bankrupt firm of Grant Jt Ward, surrendered himself to United Stab* Commissioner Shields Saturday morning, saying he understood there was a warrant issu-xl for him. A Dep­ uty United States Marshal watched his house Friday night but was unsuccessful in finding him. It is generally understood that for weeks past Receiver Johnston, of the Marine Bank, has been investigating the dealings of Ward with the bank..and he brinies the present suit to re­ cover money which he claims is due the bank, and which Warner is said to have illegally obtained. Warner/lalms that lie had no dealings with the^Manne Bank except to draw the money on checks paid him and he never had any dealings with tbe firm of Grant A Ward except to buy Ito obligations over the counter. W ar­ ner brought bondsmen to court with him, and will give bail In any amount tliat may be desired. The examination was set down for Thursday next, and ball was fixed st S'-0,000. Ml. Warner’s counsel produced two sureties who justified in twice that-amount. They were T. Bates Musgrove, banker of this city, and Tracy E- Roberta, a retired mvchant of Brooklyn.

Several French papers have expressed thoir surprise at the increase in tlie nuniber'of murders during the last few years, but the criminal statistics fol 1884. which have just been published, afford an ample explanation of this, fol they Tell us that, though twenty-five persons were condemned to death, onl} three were executed.

With an awful crash the Newark train rushed upon the overturned car and wtu thrown down the embank­ ment. Over and over rolled tbe cars of xiuman freight, and upon the night air rose the horrible shrieks ot tbe dying. Dark outlines of the train lying wrecked in the valley, and the cars roiling one on top o! the others, presented a ghastly picture. When ti»e shock had passed the dazed passengers left the trains as best they could and huddled together, too startled toapeak. The first to recover was the engineeffof the Jersey City train. He gathered the fright­ ened people together and ordered them to render ail possible assistance to the injured. When the first wounded man was taken from the debris everybody cried for a physician, but in the whole crowd of will­ ing workers not one physician could be loumL At 9o'clock ' a relief train was sent to the wreck from Jersey City, loaded with doctors, reporters, beds, food, etc. It soon appeared, that the only ones in­ jured were from the emigrant caboose, which lay splintered between the engine of the Jersey city train and the last cars of the Lehigh Valley.

Mason, stationed at Marseilles.^ The most fatal day at Mar­ seilles was*August 21, with a death record of slxty-nlne; that of Toulon 'was August S7, on which date forty-two deaths were n.-enrded. The subsidence of the scourge has been gradual and the deaths now occurring are nearly all among the fugitives who have returned to their homes without due pre­ caution In respect to ventilation and disin­ fection, or have been imprudent Ln their diet or habits.

This Is an un­ usually fatal record for a secondary visitation at Marseilles, the mortality of these secondary outbreaks having been uni­ formly leas than half that of the preceding suminer. No citizen of the United States fell victim to the plague, while the irtalady was In ita earlier rtages peculiarly fatal to Engl island Scandinavians. 1 wo American vessels were In port during the early and most fatal stage of tlie epidemic.

In the second place, we have kept out other nations—the Germans and the Dutch, tor instance—who have for some lime ca« a longing eye upon the fertile plains of Pondoland. The present Chief Paramount—that i. the style and tide of the Kine of the Rondos-Js Umquikela, * small but well-made man of about fifty veara of age. He looks somewhat older, but this is probably on account of the shocks that he periodically gives to his consti­ tution by drinking to excess. This monarch has lately issued a proclama­ tion. which came into force in October of last year, by which he has decreed that all transport between tbe port of St. John’s River and the interior should pay a prohibitory tax of £50 a wagon. This was doubtless in retaliation for the previous annexation of the port of St. John’s River, in 1883, contrary to Umquikela’s wishes, and in defiance of s treat? made in 1844 with bh predeces­ sor. Fakar. The effect of- this procla­ mation has been to stop the import*tion of goods at Sl John's River settle­ meat, which extends for about twenty miles on the northeast bank of St. John's River. The Pondo* are a rich nation so far as cattle is con­ cerned. and their country allows them to grow mealies aud corn and tobacco in profusion without much trouble and labor. Pondoland is very mountainous, and at the same time extremely well watered. The sea shore is covered with brush and forest. The principal trade of tlie country enters Pondoland across the River Umtumvuna from Natal, or bv way of Umtata from King William’s Town through Tembulaod, which liee immediately southeast. The exports of Pondoland are principally hides, horn and cattle. The traders of the country have been hitherto outlaws and other adventurous persons who have chosen to reside beyond British jurisdiction. In many cases they have exercised a wise discretion. The Pondo meh. lead vety lazy lives They scarcely eve? do any work. They leave to the women the cultivation of the mealie gardens and the hewing of wood and drawing of water. To the boys they leavb the herding of the cat­ tle. It is difficult to say what they do but lie, and thieve, and cheat, anil in sufficiently formidable numbers (ren­ dering resistance impossible) attack a store, carry off the goods of the unhap­ py storekeeper, and murder him if he protests too .vehemently at the loss of his blankets and rum. They are an amiable race altogether. Pondoland contains plants of valuable med­ icinal properitiea, and the num­ - ber of poisons in the country if very large. The Pondo does ' not scruple to make use of the latter when­ ever occasion re juires an objectionable person to be quietly “removed.” The grass, or veldt, of the country is. as a rule, too rich for sheep, but admira­ bly suited to cattle and horses, which are very numerous. There are very fewWoers. if any, in the country, most of the traders being British or Griqua half-castes. Umquikela. who is half his time fuddled with drink, haslost his in fluence with the rest of the chiefs in the country. Tribal wars are frequent and the power of the Paramount Chief is but very partially recognized, even in h.’s own neighborhood. Justice is consequently perfectly odt of the question, there being no one to admin­ ister it, ami noxine to execute it.—cor.

He said: “ 1 first thought my son was connected with this, case last May when I read an article in a Manchester paper. In which my son’s name appeared. Then came little corroborative circumstances, articles that I knew my son had, a»d flnallv the letter from my son’s counsel, telling me that tbe prisoner was my son.

He to a lawyer and he and his counsel know best what to do. 1 am and have been from the first satisfied of his innocence, and If he has gotten into a scrape through bad association, an ex­ planation will clear it all up. I will advise him that if he has entered into a conspira­ cy to defraud, an insurance company, to tell the truth, no matter who suffers.

It to the in­ tention of the comimny to employ only Mormons and Chinese, claiming; that the former are controlled by the Bishops and the latter by Chinfese bosses; hence strikes are not likely to take “place. Sever*! of the recent importations from Monnnndom assert that they did not wish to corne here, but were ordered to do so by the bishops, and told that they would be cut off from the church it they refused, it is evi­ dent that the Union Pacific has made some sort of bargain with the potentates of Zion whereby tiie road is enabled to employ not only Mongolian hut white slave labor. All troops have been taken away from here save two companies' of the seventh infan­ try, under Lieutenant Booth. Tbe Union Pacific Is building comfortable bar­ racks, now nearly completed, for their use during the winter, as well as houses for the officers.. Chinatown has been rebuilt ou the old site.

IMPRISONED AS LYHCHERS. iE MARK Columbia, & C., Oct 28.—Four more residents of Edgefield County were arrest­ ed Thursday night and lodged In jail for complicity in the lynching of Culbreath. and warrants are out for the arrest of two others. There are now In the Edgefield jail thirty-six persons Who' are accused of participation in the lynching. The. accused men form the bulk of the respectable white adult male populace of two or more townships In Edgefield County. They are taken away from their plantations at a busy season of the year, and In their absence It is hard to control the colored, laborers, who are pulling the cotton ;from the fields right and left. It is asserted that many families will be deprived of food by the arrest of these men. On Thursday the Sheriff was arrested by the Coroner on a warrant taken out by a brother of Culbreath, charging him with official misconduct in permitting two of the accused lynchers to escape from jail last week. The excitement over tho affair is still at fevey heat The two pris­ oners who escaped have been recaptured Ln Georgia. __________ Since the fire, which occurred Sept 13tb, our sales have been the largest of any Clothing House in Michigan, and easily accounted for by the fact that our prices are POSITIVELY THE LOWEST.

Chicago, Oct 25.—Treacherous sewer gas claimed the lives of three men in the town of Lake -Friday, Edward McCar­ thy, Peter Mooney and Stophen Brannock are dead from Its efforts, and John Smith and Patrick McInerney seriously HL Bran­ nock was tbe foreman ot a gang of men in the employ of the Union Rendering Coiupany,.who had becu engaged lu skimming tbe grease from tbe filthy water that flows through the Stock-Yards sewer. The sewer crosses the stock.yards in a southerly direction and empties Into tlie stagnant south branch, and is tlie receptacle of the , offal and filth of tlie psddng-bouso district. Brenock was notified yesterday that tlie flow of the sluggish current was stopped, and was directed to remove the obstruc­ tions. After an investigation tlie ob­ stacle was located in the northern division of tlie yards, near the outlet of an ; atghtecn-incb drain-pipe, connecting the Sewer with Armour & Co.’s pack­ ing house. The cover of a manhole wac lifted and a ladder lowered into tbe thick, Hilmy pool below. - The sewer is tire feet In diameter and its bottom at tills point I* about tea feet below the surface of tbe ground. McCarthy and Mooney entered the sewer and after remaining a short time were compelled to come out for a breathing time. After a short period McCarthy and Mooney descended the ladder a second time to continue their work. A few steps from the foot of tlie ladder McCarthy, who was slightly lu advance of his fellow-workman, encount­ ered tlie flow of the deadly gas, and pitched forward ou lite face into tlie reeking cess­ pool. At the same instant the fatal blast ■truck Mooney, wbo turned to make bls escape. He seised tho rotten rung of the crazy ladder. It brrtte beneath his weight and he fell back against McCarthy's body. Brannock heard the cries of the suffocating men, and calling the other workmen to aid him descended 'to tlie rescue. He grasped Mooney, but tlie btifling fuuuM filled his throat and lungs, and he. too, fell into the slulee. Smith Sad Mdueruey started down the broken iddor to rescue Brcnuodc. Before .Smith 1 readied the pottom of tbe /adder he waa overcome by Bin gas. _ McInerney seized Smith by the coat collar and held him, while others palled both men out of the deatlhhole. • A crowd had gathered by this time, aud men ran to the packlug-house for pike­ poles. Tbe gas poured out of the manhote In voloqies sufficient to daze tlie by­ standers; but the. work of rescued Id not flag. The pike-poles were twisted In­ to Brennook's clotiilng and be was hauled ouu A faint, flickering'pulse was perceptible, and efforts to revive him were at onro begun, which after a time proved suceessful.- ln» lira unfprtnnate man died late Friday evening, McCarthy** body was not found fot three hours after Ids fata! entrance Into thte sewer, and he was, of course, quite dead, as was Mooney.

I know of no wny In wb eh such conse­ quence, could have followed from a dis­ placement of the earth’s crust. To mo it so -in# far more natural to conclude that the hurricanes and dhrthquakee were alike produced (the htirricano* euieilv, the «artuqu«ke* partiallv) by rhe atmoaper c compression which pre­ ceded the subterranean dwturoanees. This compress on indicated a heapingot air over the disturbed region: the earth s crust yielded under this Increase of pressure, combined with the action of other forces, and earthquakes followed; the co’Jirressed a'*r swept nwny to re­ gions of less pressure, and the rarefac­ tion following led in the usual way to the indraught which precedes a cyclonic draturbance in the air. But while the action of atmospheric prea^ure in helping to excite subterran­ ean aetivit.es must not be overlooked, the varying pressure exerted by sea* and oceans is a more potent disturbing fac­ tor. Atmospheric pressure is distribu­ ted in such a wav that though the weight of air on any given area is continually changing, there are no sharply defined lines, nt any time, which separate re­ gion? of less pressure from regions of ’•I ache all over!” What a commeq e««*reater pressure.

McClellan, without even a previous notice of dangerous .illness, will send a shock through the country. While there will be no. wrtk. universal or na­ s tional ruonroing-ta followed the death of Geh. G qant, nor as there was after the deaths pf .Lincoln, -Garfield, Thom­ as, Farragut, and other » illustrious he­ roes and statesmen of his time, there \ will be a general and sincere regret, Gen. MetMlan was not a great man, but he was a man who was given the grandest opportunities to become great that any American has ever enjoyed. At one time almost the whole loyal nation, including the government, tried long and hard to thrust greatness upon him; The effort was a failure through his own fault. He did not possess the qualities necessary-to either achieve or hold greatness, and instead of making ' the most of his extraordinary opportu­ nities he seewaed to strive rather to avoid achieving the immortality to which Grant and Sherman, and Thomas, and Farragut' fought their stubborn way against all obstacles. While they forced themselves vigorously -upwards from obscurity to the highest*.renown, Mc­ Clellan alloWed bis grand opportunities to slip from him, and lost even the highest position into which he-had been thrust'. And yet Gea. MoGlellan came near being a great soldier. He was an ad­ mirable organizer. He was well equip­ ped in military science. Rut. he seemed to lack the qualities of downright ear­ nestness, unconquerable energy, and grim determination. He was beloved of his soldiers, and his death will be sincerely mourned by those who fought -under him. He had many good and ■ amiable qualities. It may -be that he was too amiable, and did not have enough of the rtera aad Remorseless spirit Of Cromwell, Napoleon, and oth­ er great conquerors, in his disposition to succeed as the leader of ene of the . most obstinate and passiosmte wars of all history. His success as a political leader was -even less than as a general. He was easily and overwhelmingly defeated for the presidency; and after that single re­ pulse n8ver rose to prominenoe again, lie seemed to lack political force and staying power, even more than military. Nevertheless he possessed talents of a high order, which greater energy aad persistence might have pushed into conspicuous leadership. It may justly be said of hiitf that he was one of the liest men of his party, undoubtedly a man of good intentions, sincere patriot­ ism, and large intelligence, but lacking in vigor. He commanded a wide -and general esteem, but not a powerful fol­ lowing. His name will live honorably in history connected with some of the greatest events of modern times; and his memory will long linger in the re­ spect of the American people.—Detroit Post. W. D. Fuller, in the Newaygo Trib­ une. is trying to prove that the green­ back party is committed ‘ irre­ deemable paper currency." D. R. Waters, editor of the Grand Rapids Leader, greenback, says the party Is nqt committed to any such doctrine, and urges his brother greenbacker to “avoid mere questionable theories.” The fact is that Fuller is right. But Mr. Waters has lately received an ap pointment from the democratic ad­ ministration, and wants nothing to stand in the way, of fusion between democrats and greenbackers. He knows very well that there could be no union between demorcata, hard money to the core, and green backers, clamoring for an irredeemable paper currency. Mr. Waters, in other words, is engaged in the laudable business of feathering his own nest.at the expense of his party principles. The desuocracy Is as hopelessly divid­ ed on the question of continuing the coinage of the silver dollar as it is on everything else. When the democratic party attempts to do anything its weak­ ness becomes shamefully apparent Theonly thing upon which it has been suited for the past quarter of a century, or is liable to be for the next, is in abusing the republican party, first in al­ ways denouncing its actions, then en■dorsing them, lastly claiming credii for them. To rid hiihself of-pestiferous office seekers, President Cleveland promulga­ ted an order that he would not receive visits from them nor their friends dur­ ing the month of November. He says he thinks he is entitled to at least one month in a year to attend to official business.

Connecticut voted for members of the legislature, which will be republican in both branches. In Iowa the phohibition question was the issue. The republicans favored a farther trial of prohibition, the fusionista, democrats and greenbackers, favor­ ed high license. .The state is close, but, -Indications are that the republicans have triumphed by 10,000 majority.

A good old lady, who was asked why she invariably was so early in her seat at church, is said to have replied that it was her religion not to disturb the religion of others.

Of the few things io this world of sorrow that serve to lighten the gloom and make things lively, a beautiful baby to the most successful. It fills a void in our hearts that nothing else can occupy. Except good fishing, what to more de­ lightful than to watch the actions of a little child or to hear it lisp its first words ip musical accents? Ito childish prattle amuses and at the same time touches the tenderast’ chords of our hearts with a soft thrill, and its inno­ cent smile softens even the heart of a plumber. It’s caressing touch, as pure as an angels, makes the soul glad with a tender jot that to only equalled by the mad delirium of owning a $3,000 dog. These philosophical reflections were inspired oh seeing a young father and mother with their first oaby on the cars. The infant was a perfect beauty, its big blue eyes looking out at the pas­ sengers from under a little hood with a serious Mlemnity ’comical to see. Its hair, of light brown color, was parted and hung down each aide of its eyes, giving it an old-fashioned air, anil it was moreover the pieture of health. The father held it on his knee, drawing now and then the white shawl closer around the form of his darling offspring and the mother squeezed close in ten­ der solicitude, of all of which nonsense the baby saw nothing and cared less. I watched the trio with great interest, nothing escaping my observation. The parents observed every motion and ex­ changed glances of proud exultation as they perceived the passengers “catch­ ing on” to the beauty they had given tha-world. Every little while the fond young father hugged the little darling rapturously to his breast and when the child opened its rosy mouth and said “Ba-ba-ba-ba," his chest filled out and he held hisjiead up more proudly, as be glanced arouna to see the effect. RDiiliug triumphantly at his wife as tho prodigy repeated the feat. Their pride in being the joint pro­ prietors of so much loveliness was (iejicfoiui tp behold- One of the’ female pa^agiys having remarked, in tones that were a^dliJe throughout tho ear, that “pretty children always grew ‘into hopieb adults,”’ the father’s face flushed’ aS hw looked at his offspring with an adefring dunce that showed he did not belfave in^hcald saying. “Ah,” I thought..^^ unutterable sadness in my breast, ■ -‘yyaU. old boy, until that child gets OnJxto legal Evidently you’re in Inck jvM for you have a healthy, bouncing, baby who sleeps nights.

Will you be tickled and go ■out and roll with laughter on the grass? Hoy? I guess not. I’ve been there. ■Maybe you’ll think it funny when your neighbor comes in with a club and tells you softly, so that he can he heard all through the.whole ward, that your kid has scratched hto dear child’s eye out, or thrown a stone through the parlor window and broken a Benvenuto Cellini lamp. How about the time when he puts your watch in the sink and runs water on it? Will you smile then? Will you utter whoops of delight ■ when you come up stairs and find him playing with your razor, waving the। deadly toy in the air, while every flash of light reflected from its glittering blade strikes through your quivering heart like a barb? How about the sen­ sation you’ll have when he takes your silk hat but and carries sand aniKgravcl in it for half a day? All these things and more will he do, this young, healthyj kidlet of yours. When he grows i older and goes on starring tours in. the neighbor's fruit garden, and tears gigantic holes in the basement of his knee brooches getting over fences, or goes swimming and to brought home in a dirt-cart half drowned and all hto clothes stolon ex­ cept one little rumpled stocking, will you indulge in these paroxysms of mirth? Not much! I’ll tell you what you'll do. You will take this scion of a noble family by hto pink, shell-like ear, and lifting him from the ground, lead him to the retirement which the woodshed affords. Then you’ll fondle him with-a-strap or a club, and tan his little hlfieS while he yells so that tho neighbors think you are killing some­ thing. and hto mother, standing by with tears in Mr blue eyes, feels evoiy blow more than if she really boro them on her own (tender flesh, and gathers him to her bosom after the matinee to over and sobs in unison with her bed, bad boy. Then you’ll go in the house, and when your old fnend of years and yeans comes in to see you you'll both sit and tell of tho deviltry you committed when you were boys until that son’s eyes stick out in amazement as he thinks of the walloping he got fr>r doing the same things that very day.—AT. Y. World. NOW Mr. FlMb-HattoD hu writtea a bask ny in its praise, it hardly strikes ana aa an eligible place for the white man. Thia la hto description of Mackav. the fint place he landed at: J "Of all horrible places to live in. the worst to a sip all coast town in Queens­ land. They Are all alike. There to new a green thing to be seen anywhere. Dust is everywhere, inches deep In the streets that are not macadamized; and thus bushes. houses, and everything were powdered over with it. The pop­ ulation was under 1,000, but I counted seventeen public houses in the place.” ••The cane-ticlds around he describes as beautiful, and the River, Pioneer as lovely. But it ia full of alligators, which run to nineteen feet long. The scrub, as the forests of Queensland are called, is beautiful; but “the monotony sf the endless timber is appalling, and it is easy tb realize the terrible madness that so often cornea over those who get lost in the bush. The only change is from white gum-trees on the flats . to black iron-barks on tho ridges, and one ridge and one flat to so like another to an inexperienced eye that it seems incredible that any one can ever find the way about The author went to his brothers cattle itation, and was put into a “slab hut” ‘through the spaces of which, as he lay in bod, he commanded a fine view of tho siirronnding country, while when it rained five little streamlets of water de­ scended on hto bed." On gnlng to bed he found a huge snake coiled up in it which turned out luckily, to be a tame one belonging to his brother’s partner. But in Queensland 'there are five deadly kinds.” one eight or nine feet k>ng; but “but by far the worst to the death adder. It has this peculiarity; it .decs not attempt to move out of any­ body’s way, but lies quite still until it Is touched, when it fastens with a spring upon its victim. I have never known n well-authenticated instance of recov­ ery from it,” except in the case of one Underwood, who used to let any snake bite him, and by means of au antidote never buffered' harm. The Victorian Government foolishly refused to give him £10,000 for his secret, and as he one day let a snake bite him when he was drunk and had forgotten where he had put bis antidote, this all-valuable secret died with him. Then there are other cheerful beasts. “A small black spider, about the size of a large pea, with a brilliant crimson mark upon itetback, frequently takes up its abode in an inhabited house, and does not want to be provoked before attacking. * • • Death to by no means an un­ common result, but more frequently the victim becomes hopelessly insane or is paralyzed.” Mr. Finch-Hatton was himself bitten. He took up the piece of hto leg where the bite was be­ tween the finger and thumb, and cut it clean out *T always had soma am­ monia with me. and I rubbed a quanti­ ty of it in. Certainly not more than ten seconds elapsed between the time I was bitten and when I cut the piece out. But the pain was intense for days, the whole leg swelled and became soft like dough. The place itself became a run­ ning sore, which did not heal for four months afterwards.” And there are centipedes and scor­ pions. and “the real pesto of the bush.” worse than mosquitoes, tho flies. Then there are the blacks, who,"' “even when half-tame in the settled dis­ tricts, can not resist tho temptation of spearing tho traveler," to say nothing of lifting the cattle. Mr. Finch-Hattdnjfc/parlmer was “digging one day in the garden. Suddenly he became aware that half a dozen of these ‘Myalls,' as they are called, were creeping at him through the long grass, armed with spears and boomerangs. He waited until they got About fifty yards off, and then, ns they stood up ready to sling their spears at him. he suddenly pointed hto spade at them like a gun. Two war­ riors fell flat down on the spot from sheer fright, upsetting a third who was just about starting to flee. Two ol the remaining then tried to run -away so fast that they hardly made any progress at all, and the last one, while scattering a Parthian glance at the object of terror in his rear, ran with awful violence against a gigantic gum-tree.”—-Chicago Tribune.

BEFOKT OF THE FIHST < Washusgtom, Nov. 7.—• port ot First Comptroller Among sports of a recent introduc­ tion in this country which have be­ come popular is dog racing. Running dogs were first brought from England in 1881, and nine© that time they have bt-en tred in large numbers- James Dawson, one of the most expert train­ ers in America, who has spent some years among the dog trainers and fanciers of the old country, gave thu benefit of hl« experience to a reporter whom he met a few days ago while visiting this city. “One can scarcely imagine,’.' he savs. "the tremendous aspect of the traffic in running *D hoi:to portions of England. In Lanca­ shire and Yorkshire alone there are 3 over three thousand. Nearly every young man there has a running dog. and races are every-<lqy occurrence. In 1881 I brought over several dogs just for an experiment. They attracted attention in sporting circles, especially among Englishmen. It was then de­ cided to breed tbe animals on an exten­ sive scale. An ordinary dog won’t do for running. Running dogs are bred to be small l»y crossing a bulldog with, a grevhound. In sporting nomen­ clature, the dogs are called whippets. Thev have lithe, agile forms and long, slender legs. Their hair is as fine as silk, and the sinews protrude like whip­ cords. A whippet combines thft.gnmeness and tenacity of purpose of a bull­ dog and the fleetness of a greyhound. "It is difficult to train them, » it Helps there who 1 J; He - . - m.

It was known that Mr. Davis had vMted Bragtr ou Missionary ridge, a short time before iny reaching Chatta­ nooga, says Gen. Grant in the Century for November. It was reported and be­ lieved that he had come out to reconcile a serious difference between Bragg and Longstreet, and, finding thjs difficult to do, planned the campaign against Knox­ ville, to be conducted by the latter gene­ ral I had known both Bragg and Longstreet before the war, the latter very well. We had been three years at West Point together, and, after my graduation, for a time in the same regi­ ment Then we served together .n the Mexican war. I knew Bragg in M‘exico and met him occasionally subsequently. I could well understand how there might be an irreconcilable difference between them. Bragg was a remarkably intelli­ gent and well informed man, profes­ sionally and otherwise. He was also thoroughly upright. But he was pos­ sessed of an irascible temper, and was naturally disputatious. A man of the highest moral character and the most correct habits, yet in the old army he was in frequent trouble. As a subor­ dinate he was always on the lookout to catch his commanding officer infringing upon bis prerogatives; as a post com­ mander he is equally vigilant to detect the slightest infringement of the most trivial order, I have heard in the old army an anecdote told characteristic of Bragg. On one occasion, when station­ ed at a post of several companies, com­ manded by a field officer, he was him­ self commanding one of the companies and at the same time acting poet quarermaster and commissary.. He was first lieutenant at the same time, but his captain was detached on other duty. As commander of the company he made requisition upon the quartermas­ ter, himself, for something wanted. As quartermaster he declined to fill the requisitidn, and indorsed on the back of it his reason for so doing. As company commander he responded to this, urging that his requisition called for nothing but what he was entitled to, and that it was the duty of the quartermaster to till it. The quartermaster still persisted that he was right. In this condition of affairs Bragg referred the whole matter to the commanding officer. The latter, when he saw the nature of the matter referred, exclaimed; "My God! Mr. •Bragg, you have quarreled with every otlicer in the army, and now you are quarreling w\th yourself." Only a Step. When catarrh has progressed to a certain extent, it is only a step to that terribly fatal disease, consumption.

One of the moat potent elements that contributed to the defeat of Daven­ port, in New York, was the fact that the mugwumps continually harped upon the fact that he was“a gentleman, and very wealthy.” There is nothing the masses of the people love to “knock out in one round,” more than kid-glove aristocracy. Mr. Davenport is not an aristocrat He is plain, every-day-alike man. But the mugwumpian worship of his money, made him appear to the people as an aristocrat and alienated thousands of voters.- The republican party must learn that availability, m the eyjs of the people, consists of fitness for office, and not large bank accounts. A man is no more nor no less fitted for office because his wealth sizes up among the millions. England is in trouble over the depres­ sion in her flax spinning trade. The great mill at Leeds that employs over 2,000 operatives is threatened with clos­ ure. And other mills have already sus­ pended. Captitalists engaged in this industry are closing out with the pur­ pose of removing their Investments to the United States where they can have the benefit of the tariff laprs, to protect them from ruinous competition that free trade brings them in England. Germany, having adopted protective measures, finds her merchants are won­ ’ derfully stimulated, and .are developing great enterprise and sagacity. They are competing with some of England’s most cherished industries. Chief Justice Morse last week gave a very important ruling which has the effect of establishing local option in all the villages organized under the gener­ al incorporation law. The case was brought by a Sparta. Kent county, sa­ loon keeper, whose bond was rejected by the village council, for the. reason that they had a village ordinance prohibi­ ting the liquor business altogether, and who applied for a writ of mandamus to compel the council to approve his bond. The court denied it, on the ground that Sparta was organized under the general law, which had been so amended in 1884 as to empower villages organized under it to "suppress saloons.” . The necessity of giving Home Rule to Ireland is becoming more and more apparent to Englishmen, and its accom­ plishment is in the near future. The great difficulty has been to give her control of her own affaire without set­ ting her up as an independent nation. Mr. Parnell’s idea is, however, general­ ly accepted, and that to' the power to make the laws that affect the Irish pefU pie alone. An army and navy is not asked for, but liberty to rnle Ireland as Canada and Australia rule themselves. That this should be yielded is begin­ ning to be strongly felt, but the great question is how it can be accomplished safely. Sweet “Billy Mahone” is dead. The democrats of Virginia hit the little fel­ low with a club that was not stuffed, and he will retire in the peaceful shades of an oblivion that is not^ltogether to If you don’t want the inky shirt waved, don’t hotot it yourwlf.

EBITOB BANNKBi /Will you allow me the space In the Banns* to reply to some of your criticisms upon the act­ ion of the board of supervisors at their October 8«alon? it is your privilege and your duty to criticise; and it is also my privilege and duty to defend my action. You start by feeding us a htUe taffy; "WeJjelleve they aimed honestly to curtail the expens­ es. But the greater part of the expenses had been made aud could not well be curtailed." It, was the above fact that caused some of tu to lock the dodr for the future, to guard against just such eases. Again, you say: “Like most such bodies, they begin first at the printers of the county." . Thai may be true tn a measure. If In “honestly'* at­ tempting to "curtail expenses" tbe “printers of the county” come In fortheir share, they ought not to complain. But you volunteer your services for the third time to “show them where they could save ten dollars to every one they expect to save bv or­ dering the proceedings printed In but three pa­ pers, instead of six." Like myself, 1 presume mostot the sujtervlsoni received their early edu­ cation at Brush college, but for one of 'em. ( cannot solve that problem. Will you (as you promise) show how the supervisors can save to the county by paying out feso, Instead of *75? we liavc some young men In this part of the county who think they are wiser that their par­ ents. But I do not (with all their wisdom) think they can explain IL I think I can speak for al­ most tbe entire board when 1 say we are open to conversion, and will adopt any plan you can mark out for. us and “make so plain that tbe wayfaring man,"Ate. You know, Mr. Editor, that two years ago the supervisors and the "printers of tbe county" had a little unpleasantness, and In the interest of "economy" by the six “printers of the eoun­ ty” it co«t the county »180 to print the proceed­ ings of tbe board of supervisors. That was “honesteconomy." Excuse ine; I did not In­ tend to shake the printers’Inky shirt! Now,to be frank with you. and 1 think >ou will admit In the “Interest of economy." I would have the proceedings printed In only one paper of the county, as the statute requires, or have 2.000 copies for distribution in pamphlet form, at a cost that would not exceed very little, If any. what we paid one |>aper two yean ago. They would be more generally preserved for future reference. L1VMKY HIRN. You say: "Tho refusal to a?low livery bills made by tbe sheriff was hardly fair. It may have a damaging effect hereafter." In the “In­ terest ot economy,” 1 think to the contrary. One good effect I think It will have In the fu­ ture : When au officer of the county hires a liv­ ery rig Instead of using his x»wn, In the dis­ charge of his official duties, tlie liveryman will charge It to him. and not the comity. The writ­ er was the author of the resolution cutting off liver)-hire, and 1 only regret 1 did not include railroad fare. When tbe very able and Just eonimlttee on claims made their reports from time to time, my attention was called to tlie amount of such claims—claimed *387, and the amount on such claim allowed. 8234—for livery hire for only eight months. That 1b the bead and frout of my offense ot introducing that res­ olution and supporting It as one of ’em.-^Lct us look this growing custom of livery hire square In tbe face. The statute in plain language says what fere eHen officer each oniccrsuan shall have, uavc, even supervisors; supervisor*; and ana i take it for granted when our legislature fixed those fees they were in full for all service render­ ed. but Is silent about “ll very hire." .lam not a lawyer but I tlilnk usage has had more to do with this class of extravagance than law; I do not know that our present county officers are more extravagant! n that line than their prede­ cessors. I think the honest tax-payers of Barn­ county will sustain tbe 10 of'em In their vote. What ’would the tax-payers of Barry- eounty »ay If wlieu tlie usual time of meeting of the lK>ar<l of supervisors came. Mr. Polley and the writer hired a livery rig to take us to Hastings, have it charged to the county as well- as our board bills? Or for ease and comfort we went by rail via Grand Itaplds.got our dinner at Sweet’s Hotel, had our railroad fare and dinner charged to the county and pocket our milage ? On the contran' we twe our own conveyances to reach Hastings, |>ay our own.horse keep, and our board bill and pocket what little la left for our time. Mr, Editor, stocetyour criticism upotr our action on '-livery hire” it lias been a query with me Hut in the Interest of "economy," ft would not tie cheaper for Barn county to own a first class livery barn, railroad and hotel for the benefit of Its county officers. In conclusion, wnat little of this worlds good each of us supervisors have got we have got by habits of industry, rigid economy and good fUiancering. If we bring the same habits of Industry, rigid economy and good pnancerlng In our legislature for Barry county you must attri­ bute It to our early education. Please have charity. . A. C. TOWNE. be envied. It is to be regretted that tlie independent and reform element of Virginia ever fell into Mahore’s hands. Virginia needs reforming, sad­ ly needs it. She needs most of all a few years of sound republican rule; but she will never get it so long as such men as Mahone attempt to be the lead­ The above article covers two topics; ers, and to dictate affaire. Mahone was 1st printing supervisors proceedings; 2d livery hire. a republican for convenience, not from REPLY TO FIRST principle. So far as the writer is concerned, and Nothing did more to unite the demo­ he speaks for the majority of the pub­ cratic party and call out its full vote in lishers of the county, he cares no£ a New* York than the insolent, dicta­ straw’s weight whether the super ’isors proceedings are published in the papers torial conduct of mugwumps.

If the first are to be have never been but little else than chosen, make no discrimination, serve wind and bluster, puffed up with their all alike, and pay fair remuneration for own conceit and vanity. They fancied the work. Not all the people of the oounty take any one or any three of the because the few votes they cast hap­ papers. Therefore it is an injustice to pened to turn the tide for Cleveland, choose- any one or any three; since the therefore they could arrogate to them­ publication is designed for the people, and not for any class or the patrons or selves the business of dictating nomin­ anv one paper. If the board can get ations and elections in the empire state. 2,000 pamphlets with the proceedings To rebuke them cost the sacrifice of a for 825. and they will answer the pur­ good man, and elevated to office a bad pose, why did not the, board take that action ? It would have saved 8125 in­ one; but the sacrifice may be worth all stead of 875, and according to Mr. it cost. The office-seekers will renew their war upon the president with increased vigor, now that the spoils-huntere won the day in New York. It is very doubtful indeed if President Cleveland can withstand the pressure that will lie brought to bear on him to go back on every civil service reform promise he has made. As the’ new Detroit Tribune shines the Evening News declines, and whines as it declines. The News knows that its morning contemporary will “get there Eli” considerably in advance.

You ask us to show you how ten times 875 could have been saved to Barry county by the supervisors. 1st. By authorizing the superintend­ ent* of the poor to allow bMpfor the position of overseer of county I'arifi, 8100 could be saved—8400 being his salary now. 2d By authorizing them to allow bids for supplying county poor with food and clothing, at least 81800 could be saved. , , ' . 3d By greater care themselves, tlie supervisors can save from 8300 to 8500 in tbe temporary relief they give the Tth By directing the »beriff to not exowxl *M> in his ordeti on the fneral fund. in thto way iroui M® w could lie saved next year a« compared Kitras Pries of Dry Gwii honest economy. The bill for criminal expenses will be large enough without payin’’- more than required, especially where the fees are designed to cover ail the expense, But one of the supervisors, a green­ backer by the way, told us the action Relative to livery hire was designed as a rebuke for extravagance to the sheriff and his deputies. If that was the design, it was wrong in principle. If the sheriff and deputies an?, in the view of the majority of the board, creating larger expenses for the county than they ought, be honest enough to sav so. Tnqt will save time and money too. We feared the action of the board would allow criminals to escape more easily than they had. If that should be true, it would be a calamity.

The Knights of Labor In Texas to Number of 1,000 Strike Out of Sym­ pathy with Striking 'Longshoremen— Ef­ forts at Compromise. Galveston. Tex., Nov. 6.—The great strike which was begun here Tuesday after­ noon nt two o'clock was brought al»u| by the joint action of tbe State Executive Com­ mittee of the Knights of Labor aud the Trades Aaaemblj' of Galveston. Sixteen hun­ dred white laborers quitted work in the freight houses, along tlie wharves, on steamshlpi In cotton presses, on railroads—in tact, everywhere that knights were em­ ployed. The strike also extends along the entire length of the Gulf. Colorado A Santa Fe Railway, three hundred and forty-six miles, from Galveston to Fort Worth.

Tho striking white ’longshoremen were admitted to membership in tlie Rnlghta of Labor organixatlon. The street* are crowded with strikers.

On the contrary, the reference is to those toilera of the night whose business is legitimate; to die report­ ers and printers who work for the pub­ lic chiefly by the midnight lamp: to the ‘‘scores upon scores of re ­ spectable men in other professions who, one way or another, have to find their bread by night and not by day. One of these nocturnal laborers lately hap­ pened to be a Tribune reporter, and just about daybreak he could not help noticing the singular demeanor of cen-. tain men who walked slowly along the principal shopping thoroughfares'with their eyes bent steadfastly upon the ground. The majority carried small, coarse bags, and stopped wherever they saw a dust heap, which they diligently searched. These pickers-up of uncon* - sidered trifles were evidently Italians for tho most part. They worked tho streets In sections, ns no two ever came within a block of each other. A police­ man happened to be sauntering along State Street, in the vicinity of the Palmer House, and the reporter asked him for an explauntion of the mysterious move­ ments of the men, who looked like des­ perate members of- a conspirators' chorus. ••Them fellers?” . said tho officer, waving his hand in the direction of a Eair of Italian searchers; “why, them i, dagos, and they are looking for articles that folks may have happened to drop over night They generally work State, Madison, and Dearborn streets, because there the most of the women do their shopping, and as they are out tbe first thing in the morning the chances are that they may pick up something that will keep them in com­ fort for a couple of months. A little poes .a long way with them dagos. Why, 1 don’t tielleve they spend as much in a week as you or 1 or any other Christian would spend for one square meal. Do they ever get a good find ? Well, yes; once in a while they do. They may catch on to a ring? or a locket, or a pair of ear-rings, and It is not long agosiBce I heard of one fellr. *1 that picked up a' Eurae containing over a hundred dollars. t was lying just under the curbstone, half-way in tlie gutter. When he saw he was observed be thought it wisest to takfe it over to the police-station, but it was never claimed, and he got the dol­ lars. You would be astonished to know how many things women-folks contrive to lose—maybe owing tothe excitement of buying fancy things, and maybe be­ cause In the crowd they get kind of rat­ tled and careless. The daisy time for the dago-searcher for lost articles is in the early spring when the snow begins to melt, and then things that have been lost and busied for months come to light and are liable to be picked up by those who make it their special business to look for them- They are not at all par­ ticular about what they catchon to. See tharfellow there? Well, he's just picked up an old pair of boots and stuck them in his bag. He'll get some kind of h market for them somewhere, and that just shows you how some of the poor of this citv have to live. Neither you nor I would lodk at these boots, but there are hundreds who would be glad to buy them for a few cents. AU these dago men know where to find a market for almost anything that is put out on the streets. There goes another who has picked up what looks like au old cotton rag—probably a handkerchief that has been all trampled over in the mud—but it is good enough for him, as all’s fish . that comes to his net” ••Are these men worked under the padrone system?” “ •*I don’t know what that is,” replied the officer, and the reporter explained the system which prevails in New York, where a small Italian capitalist called tbe padrone hires and feeds so many of his wretched fellow-countrymen and vigorously exacts the lion's share of their earnings. The officer Mid he did not know whether tho Chicago treasure-trove seekers were governed by padrone*, but thought they might be, because he’d often noticed men going up and speaking to them as if they were watch­ ing them closely. A few yards farther on the reporter met one of tlie young searchers, and ventured to ask whether he had a pa­ drone. . ) ‘•Non. signor,” ho replied, as ho grinned broadly; “me no have padrone. Mo my own boss—no use for padrone. Non, mocha of zee business I not, do— too mucha povero and no dollar.” So saving he scuffled off on his search.— • ▲ GOQD-MA.TUMLD Tomtado. NewYmlcSun: About a week ago ^fSx?183^1of MUwuakee bL Paul railway, run by Billy Warren, ran into the station at Owatonna Minnn and the engineer jumped out upon the platform. stared vwesatiy about, and fell upon the planks in spaaius. Charley Edwxr.la, the, fire­ man, followed Warren, arid Tunning into the telegraph office," leaned over the operators desk, and managed to ask that a message l« sent to headquar­ ters in Milwaukee, saying that a terrible accident had happen t<l to tneir train. Then for the first time, the railroad men»noticed that there were no cars behind the locomotive. They began to ply Edwards with aueetinns, and finally elicited from him te information that No. 228 had left Mendota with twelve loaded liox airs, three gondolas, the cabnose and a pass­ enger car at 12:30 o’clock. Their run was without accident until they reach­ ed Clinton Falls, about 15 miles from Owatonna Then the sky became cloudy and the rain began to fall Warren wanted the conductor to watch the train closely, as he did not like the ap­ pearance of the .heavens. Clinton Falls was MM>n left behind. Off in the north­ west the clouds rolled and tumbled over one another, and there were eviden­ ces of a terrible wind-storm. Warren ran steadily along, occasionally glanc­ ing out of the window of his cab. He suddenly grasped Edwards by the arm, and, pointing to the sky where the clouds were indulging in their gymnas­ tics, shouted: “It’s coming, Charley!" The'men could see that the masses of vapor were being drawn into the vortex of a rotary storm center. Then the wind began to move northeastwardly toward the train. Warren put on all tfoe steam he had. and .Edwards shovel­ ed in the coal, until the locomotive groaned like a monster in distress. On they flew, but not fast enough, as the storm-cloud advanced steadily. Just then they apparently ran into a vacum as for a moment they could not breathe. Then the wind buret upon them. The storm king reached down and and picked up every car in the train. All the freight cars were thrown on their sides in the ditch by the track. The caboose and passenger coach, in which there were the conductor, two brtfjmen and six passengers, were cumt-il into an adjacent field and gently deposited on the ploughed ground. As the telegra’ph wires were intact it is evident tbjat these cars were lifted at least twenty feet vertically and then carried along. Fred. Flint of the St. Paul Globe. who was iu the coach, says that ncrone realized what had been done until' they • clambered out upon the ground and surveyed the scene. No one was injured. The locomotive remained upon the track. Edwards says Warren looked behind him but once, and then he gazed steadily forward, Without saying a word, and heaved a sigh of relief when he reached Owatonna. The shock was so great that it is feared Warren will never renew his duties as engineer. The storm did not touch the earth at any other point. Arthur J.

At supper we spoke again of sailors and their superstitions. Tho Captsia said: “Sailors on the lakes are very super stitioua. Lots and lots of ’em would sooner lose a place than sail on Friday. They’re awfully afraid of anything that appears tbe least bit supernatural. Anything in the shape of will-o’-tho-wisp or 8L Elmo's light will make most of ’em tremble in their shoe*. Onoe I frightened a set of 'em half to death by muffling a lantern to give it a weird apCaranee. aud then tying it to the yardra. Then they are' firm believers in the power of certain things to bring luck or ill-luck, just like old Colerdge’s •Ancient Mariner' and the albatross. They’re particularly timid of red-headed women. I was mate on a boat once on which a rod-headed woman took pass­ age. and tbe sailors complained right ou. Once outside everything seemed to go wrong. Finally, we ran into a schooner and lost our jib-boom. This was too much.

Not long ago a weeping mother called to bld good bye to her only son who was soon to be executed. ••Woman,” he exclaimed in a momen­ tary frenzy, “Woman, I would never “have been here had you done your duty “by me when I was young!" This was a terrible parting! It hor­ rified the spectators, it nearly crazed the conscience stricken mother. One can scarcely overestimate the mother's influence in the moulding of the character of her offspring. But how often, oh how often, do mothers s seem to ignore this respbnsibilty! During a recent trip by rail the writer made the acquaintance oflDr. A. J. Ben­ edict. of Sackett’s Harbor, N. Y., a per­ son who has made a study of human developements. Referring to the mur­ derous tendency of the times, we asked that eminent man if the outlook was not discouraging ? “It looks so,” he said, “but I fancy we have a cause and the remedy for such evils. In my professional career I have found by hard study that we have emerged from savagery by develop­ ments of the nervous system and the intellectual life, and we return to sav­ agery as we ignore the fact that with­ out the solid, trustworthy nervous sys­ tem, we cannot hope to save the race. Boys stuff dime novels, and the pistol is to them the only respectably glorious instrument to secure fume. Women , read trashy literature and straightway try to m urder their husbands and friends by poison. Business men yield to, the temper, and fprge and steal and default. Ministers, charmed by beauty, forget the behests of conscience. On every side we s& the weakness of personal integ­ rity." “Do you regard it as a disease?” “More especially as the result of dis­ eas, which, however, may be prevented." “Please define how." "I cannot now enter into details. Our people can see their bodies, their blood, their bones. They never see their nerves and consequently many do not suppose they have any. The farmer’s wife rejoices in big, physical frame, and yet she dies prematurely. The nerve cannot* stand the strain of continual work. The minister falls dead in his pulpit but be never did a day’s physical work in ijis life. The lawyer faints in the presence of the court and is soon a wreck or a corpse, and yet the work is nerve work. The man of affairs is • __ overcome with apoplexy, the politician and publicist, with Bright’s disease. The mind of the untutorwl man is fired by the exploits of crime and he longs lor such fame. These p^sons over­ work or over-excite tlie nervous system and this fact kills or demoralizes them.” “If all this be so how would you rec­ tify it then ? . “Let me tell you. A few years ago I had a lady patient who was an utter wreck. She was the mother of several children. She lost her mind and imag­ ined she was cursed of God. She was a farmer’s wife, and worked early and late. I never saw a finer apeciman of physical womanhood than she, but she was a ’ nervous wreck!’ She became bloodless, had the very worst of female -disorders and was in the last stages of albuminuria or Bright’s disease. The latter disease works particular havoc with the-nervous system and, produces insanity and despair. She was insane and desperate and I fear tainted the blood or her offspring with these terri­ ble tendencies. I treated het for several Stannard ----renteyears. One by one the standard dies of .the schools failed, but 1 finally/ cured her with Warner’s safe cure, and - she is today strong and well. Yet thoik sands of women like, her, every year • bring ill-formed and criminally-inclined ^children into the world. Is it any wonder that nervous diseases prevail and that the whole moral sense is de­ moralized ? If that remedy were gener­ ally used, we would have stronger mothers, stronger children, stronger men and women, and with perfect phys­ ical and mental health, crime would crease and society be more secure. Such candid opinions are surely worth considering.. Pat. Bennett died of injuries recieved bylielng kicked in the abdomen at Washington Saturday night by Jojm Mahoney.

She sailed like a saucy yacht before a half gale into a well-known uptown jewelry store. She carried under her arm a bunch of hair.. which, being placed upon the gioM counter In front of a shrinking, timid youth, showed signs of life, and let out a spiteful yelp that could only come from the throat of a disgusted* dog. After adjusting the wrinkles in her face so that a fa r-sized scowl appeared, she turned right about and looked the light-haired clerk square in tho face/while a gleam of spite and anger shot from her steel-gray eyes. “Did not I tell you, st, to be extremely careful about the size of the ring that you measured for mv Lttle Zip? Look at that, you double-dyed villain,” as she po nted to a small inflamed spo' upon the dog’s left leg. . “That’s all your work, and woe unto you, air, if my poor little treasure Is kept awake any more at night by your horrible stu­ pidity. You are sure the ring wm all right and that my darling has probably got the mange?. Well, sir, that settles jour cue. 1 was not going to make any further complaint.' Now I'm ofl for headquarters, and she doubled up her skirts, seized her “darling” and startea double-quick for the main office. In a few moments she came out of the office with the manager, and he walked with her to her carriage. The wrinkles were pushed as'de, an ancient smile faintly glimmered through her drug­ store complexion and the oil of cou-, tentment had been poured upon hi*r outraeed feelings. “What was the trouble with tout customer?” the manager was asked, aa he walked into the store. “Was she one of the crank snec'esF' “Well.” said the manager, “if you call a purson a crank who thinks more ot a dog than a child, then she is one, and the plftse of which she is a fair specimen is By no means small. ' The whole trouble arose from a mistake made in measuring het dog’s leg for a bracelet. . After the ani mal had worn it a few times, it became tight, and in removing it tlie skin was si ghtly abraded. Why <lo I say that she thought more of her dog than her child? Well, my judgment is based upon a com mere’a) transaction. She came in here about two weeks ago with one of the prettiest children I ever san and bought a ring for the little one. Il cost 92.76, while she paid -$28 for a bracelet for that yelping cur." “Is there much ot a trade in animal ornaments?” • “Well, yes* though at present there te not much doing, because the people who but the*e tniugs are out of the city. Just before the opening of tbe summer resortsoar trade had a wonder­ ful boom, and it would have surprised one who hud not . been initiated to sec the valuable ornaments that .were ordered for pets. The trade, however, has not been as good this year as it was last, probably because the line of jewelry worn by ••ach animal was full. This business began six or seven years ago and jumped into full swing when, at one of the auim&l dog shows, a pug was exhibited with a beautiful pa'r of bracelets upon its fore logs. The ladies were overcome by the gnawings of envy, and hastened ’to adorn their pugs in the same way. Some even weqt so far as to have the ears of their dogs pierced, and dainty little car­ drops suspended therefrom. A philan­ thropic spirit started the story that this practice interfered with the dog’s hearing and was a mild method of torture, and it has now fallen into disuse. “However much tho owners may admire the appearance of their be­ spangled pets, f have yet to find the dog that fAils elated when jewelry is put on him. Dogs usually try to tear these things off with their paws or gnaw them off. These ornaments are not confined to nracelets, but include col­ lars—plain. jewelled, or with artistic­ ally engraved monograms—expensive blankets and embroidered wraps. They are ordered for dogs of every size and sijecies, but more frequently for dogs that might be termed pets. The prices paid are various, but are always high, became nearly every order provides for a special design, and the patterns and settings, if jewels are used, have to be sjHicially prepared. I know of one lady who owned a fine pug and terrier. She had a fancy that they would look well in double harness, and ordered a set to bo made after a pattern that she had drawn on paper. It was an elabor­ ate affair, studded with gems, and a model of beeutv when complete. She .counted out 9250 forilt without a mur­ mur!"—N. Y. Tribune. Papier Macha Plaques. Papier mache plaques for advertising purposes are becoming common. H is the latest instance of how art has been subserved to business purposes. The work can be given the appearance of a number of substances, such as stone, metal or wood, and some of it is of a high grade of excellence. The materi­ als are few in number, exclusive of those used in finishing, being clay, plaster of parts and rough brown paper, such as is used in hardware stores for wrapping purposes. The clay is employed in the first or artistic stage, of tne work, in modeling of the figirt-es or designs to be reproduced in papier mache. The plas­ ter of parte is used to make the molds and the paper is the bub of the finished product. The. design being made in clay, the plaster is poured over it, and What might be called a negative pro­ duced. Upon each of the negatives or molds the paper is built up until a proper thickness has been secured. Then the palp is allowed to dry in the sun or is aried by means of artificial heat, when it is removed from the mold. At this stage it appears like rough, stamped leather. After tbe edges hare been trimmed and tlie surface smoothed, points end bronze powders are applied until the desired effects are produced. Tne work throughout requires great skill and in the first end last stages ar­ tistic talent of no small order.—N. F. Mail and Express. nH mcreaae since 1880 it 142,709. The “evidences of design’’ in the hu­ man widow have been so much dwelt upon, in fiction and satire, that it is a relief to turn to a tale in which her es­ sentially simple and trustful nature is set forth. Such a tale wa,- told touch­ ing a widow in Easton, Penn., who was beguiled, by toe machinations, not of man, but of her own female child, aged tifirteen. The child, as our readers have noted, was in lhe habit of v siting a widower’s large brick •hou.te. presumably to play with the widower’s ch Idren. when it occurred to her to extract money from her own mother, under pretence of matng love’ to her in the ostensible, be­ half of lhe widower, in latten ••writfen with a lead pencil” by herself. The inventions she employed for this pur­ pose were such as would naturally occur to a person of her years aud in­ experience. ’ She wrote, in the ngroE o! the widower, for fifteen dollars to help pay the muu in thu widower’s employ, for money to buy A* widower a tur­ key, toipay tov widower's gas bill, and to pay for the keep of Uie widower’s horse. These crude demands for money were accompanied by professions df at­ tachment not less crude, such as tbe cbildkke device of addressing the widow as ■••My Dear Wife.” These are the devices which a child ot thirteen would naturally adopt The wonder is not that the child adopted them, but that the mother was taken in by them. Her first,husband must have been a prosaic and literal soul whose speech was the transparent vesture of his thought and she must have rashly generalized from him to his sex. But what a fund of simple faith in mank’nd must this undesigning widow have ac­ cumulated when it could be drawn upon with success and without l.mft by such artifices as these. Her daughter d d not take after the widow. She wax the confidence child of a confiding mother. We should not even critici.se the crudity of her applica­ tions for money since they were suc­ cessful. Like authors whose produc­ tions are sneered at by tlie critics and devoured by readers, it must be ad­ mitted in her favor that she knew her public and adjusted her means to her ends. Of the principle of fraudulent finance she hkd a precocious master?. It Is the Mine principle employed by Ferdinand Ward ami Mrs. Howe. 6l Boston, and is involved in the familiar process ot ••priming a pump’’ or ad­ ministering a driblet in order that a copious stream may flow. She ac­ knowledged in the name'of the wid­ ower in tho form of casual clocks and occasional vases the widow’s bounty, and upon one occasion, as an unim­ peachable guarantee of good faith, pro­ duced a plain gold ring, which, it may be assumed. w.w the ultimate object of the widow’s investment. In this man­ ner she gradually extracted from her mother 9800. and without doubt rejoices in a larger collection of pink ribbons and cheap jewelry than any other child in Easton. The simple faith at toe mother's character shines the more by contrast with the guile of her ejaughter. So free is she trom the subtle.and scheming character falsely ascribed by literary persons to the estate of widow­ hood that she is plainly an easier prey for male deceivers than her precociously accomplished child.—N.

The object struck t-lie ground near by. and he ran to pick it up. After waiting for it to cool he picked up the substance and brought it to the village for examination. It is hard and somewhat porous, and in shape resembles an inverted toad-stool. The stem is pointed and quite sharp. The stem is about three inches long and the largest part is a little larger than a dilver dollar. It weighs nearly six ounces. Ntabrillt— rijftofltoe, Saturday all day, Dec. , Thursday aftemoen. T*e.

Mr. Nathan Whitlock, of Barryville, has up to date lost thirteen hogs from cholpra. Mr. Peter Mowery, of Maple Grove, started on a trip to the northern part of the state last W ednesday. This has been rather a remarkable fall for gray eagles, judging from the number said to have been killed by Grand Rapids sports at Thornapple lake. The facts are that but one has Ixwn killed and that by'H. Sparks, and sent to the Rapids in charge of Dr. C. O. Scott. Mr. Vance Holmes late a section hand on the Quimby section, will work for his uncle in Iowa this winter. A family named Miller now occupies the Moore house in Morgan lately vacated by Dr. C. W.

And still the news comes to us of more sick hogs, Charles Hyde being the unlucky owner—two being sick last Tuesday. Mr. Welman was in Morgan last Saturday looking at property, having a trade in view. The Morgan constable served a sum­ mons on the wrong man. Look out, Mr. Constable, and be more careful in the future* Anthony and Isaac Golden have gone horth on a visit and to bunt.

The little daughter of Frank and Mrs. Harper died last week.

School began last Monday, with the Misses Somers as teachers. The “balmy breezes and sunny skies" we mentioned in our items of last week were non est, by the time the paper reached us. The weather is a very un­ certain subject at this season of the year. And etni the good work goes on, and the porkers grow beatifully less. Mrs. L. A. Nichols Sundayed with her daughter in Richland, but returned on Monday to look after a few remain­ ing domestic duties. She will remain in Orangeville this week only-, when she will take her final departure from among us. The family will be very much missed in this commnuity,. and all their friends heartily wish L. A. Nichols a full measure of success in his new business enterprise at Battle Creek. Mr. Dinwiddie raised this season on Mr. Fish’s farm a rutabaga turnip, measuring two feet in circumference, and weighing ten pounds. Next! Perhaps the people in-the surrounding country are not aware that Orangeville is one of the finest poultry producing sections of this county. Tiie soil seems to be well adapted to that Industry and the people take much interest in that brunch of business, the result being that more eggs and fatter and finer poultry are sent to market from here, than from anv place anywhere in this vicinity. Squire Turner, of Wayland, waa in town the fore part of the week.

Bud Thing to Take During the Wlirn Hr l.riirneii Hr Could Not Take It Again. I never knew how I caught iL but presume it must have been on the fly. I often think of that fit of sickne&s with a thrill of ecstatic, pleasure, because in some respects it waa a peerless boon. I rmuember distinctly comiflg home early one afternoon with a terrible btMMtache. which could not be ac­ counted.. for at the time. On the folIgw'mg day I was barely able to sit up ««t a chicken, and by night-time 1 learned what was the matter from a aaHvr who recognized tiie malady by th» symptoms. \ I was not at all frightened, as I knew it was good for a leave-of-absenee from business of several weeks. I sent word ever what was the matter, and they seemed to believe me. because no ' courier came to the house to ascertain the particulars. As I didn't feel very sick, I fancied that I had come in contact with a real bonanza; for I had nothing to do but Vc in bed night apd day. and that never grew monotonous. Not fueling the need of a doctor. I requested tbe fam ly to allow mu to save them the expense of one. inasmuch as he would be obliged to report tbe case, and I felt slightly sens t ve about being car­ ried down-stein by tiie arms and legs, and rudely uarted away to a hospital. It was deemed pnaier to get me as far from tHb.bosom \of the family as possible, so a bed was fixed fotyijlu he 'in the. garret, nnd the scuttle tiiro Frown open. It was in the month of June, aud there was rno danger ' •- lie ” there *■--- , of taking cold. 1 used to nnd think how the boys were wero working, and what a fine time I was haxing lying there count ng the stars through the scuttle and watching the clouds roll by. When I heard other members of the family hurrying through breakfast tor catch a certain ferry-boat, which involved miss ng a second cup of coflee. I felt like a bond­ holder In the knowledge of the fact that I whs having n(vncation., “How are you fbeUng this morn­ ing?” the old man would shout at pretty long range. “Oh, pretty sick, thank ^you," I would answer pleasantly; "just come up and see the spots on your son.” “Do you want a doctor?” ’ng in to look.at some photographs she had just had taken. Ve to E®t hack right away,” I “ But it is only half-past eight,” she persisted. /“Can’t help it” I replied; ••lam not fixed up for calling, and I have someth'fflg to do.al home.” At this moment <he caugiit sight of my face, which was the color of a boiled lobster, for we happened to stand near a lamp post. “What makes your face so red?" asked she. “Is ray face red?” I inquired as though I thought it a joke. “Certainly it i£” I still protended to consider it a jest, and asked: “Are von not color-blind?” "No, I am not” “Then I mu-t be sunburned.” “It is not the right shade for that." she exclaimed, in a manner that froze me: “yours is a deep scarlet hue, and I don’t Fee why you want to stand there griun ng 1 ke a newly-appointed .post­ master. instead ol telling me.” “Woll.Jfyou mast know, I suppose von must know; bat this gorgeous tint I am wearing at present and its cause is a profound family secret. However. I will toll you all if you promise not to divulge the great secret to a living­ soul.” . “I will never tell," she promised. “Then?” 1 said, looking-first in one direction and then in another, to make sura that we were not observed: “it ia the blush of modesty.” With this explanation I precipitately fled, aud have not seen that girl since. When I went "back to business, they were all glad to see me, until they found out the nature of my malady. Thon they moved off. and gave me the whole place. "I'm so glad to see you." one man would stay, shaking hands: “what’s been the matter?” "Varioloid.” Then he would gasp, rash out to be cauterised or disinfected. “What ailed yon?” asked an old nervous member of the firm, laying h's arm on my shoulder in a fatherly way. “chills and fever?” "No." I replied, it was a form of small-pox. known ns — ” • Get right away for tuvacatloo.” ho broke in. as Im yanked his arm off my shoulder, and turned pale with fright. “Go right t«» the cashier, and draw three weeks' salary and start off. So I walked out ot that place about as happy as any one could be with n three weeks’ leave of absence and a cash capital of nine dollars. I shall never forget what an object of envy I was when 1 left. Every one that dared to took me by the hand and congratu­ lated me. and said that they wonld try the varioloid game themselves. , “When I returned, I concluded that 1 had got about all the juice that it wax possible to get out, of one fit of sick­ ness. and made up my mind to accept the situation and go to work. A day or two after my return tho same piembtrn of the firm met me at the office, and asked: “How are you feeling now?” "First rate; never felt better. ” . “Oh. by the way.” he went on. “I suppose you burned up all **yonr cloth­ ing after your sickness?” "Didn’t burn any," I replied\**the clothes I have on now hung over the foot ol the |xxi while I waa sick.” The old men held up- his hands io despn'r. turned paler than-1 had ever seen h m before, nnd said: "Draw two weeks’salart’. go away for that lime and burn np all your clothes.” I drew six dollars, remained away two-weeks, and went hack to business in th«* same clothes, dyed. That s the i«hl of my variolo <1. and I must admit that 1 felt sad when aphy«ctan told me I couldn’t have it a second time.—B. K. MtinkeUrich. in i’uck. Population Drifting Into Masses. Population seems to seek its kind, and such inducements as our cities af­ ford prove too attractive for the rural population. In 1880 only one-ninth of the population of Minnesota lived in cities. If the State census, just pub­ lished. may be credited, one-fifth of her present population live in cities. Speak­ ing roundly, it may be said that in 1790, one-thirtieth of the population of the United States was found in cities of more than eight thousand population; in 1880, one twenty-fifth: in 1810 and also 1820, one-twentieth; in 1880, onesixteenth; in 1840, .one-twelfth; in 1860, one-eighth; in 1860, one-sixth; in 1870. more than one-fifth, and in 1880, half way betweep/ one-fifth and onequarter. The tendency of modern civifixation is to mass popnlation. The strong lights and shallow* of our cities, tho love of society, the satisfaction of better shelter, better roads, stronger institutions, lead men to crowd to­ gether, even when unable to bd any­ thing but dependents in the system to which they unite themselves.—Toledo Blade. * ••Which one do you want?” “Dr. Goldsmith—‘Citizen of the World'.” Shortjy after- the book would be handed to me on the end of a clothespole. and that fixed me for the day. ' When my brother gazed upon me, and thought of th^time 1 was having. v he became sick with envy. He said that I was always having good luck of . some kind. To hear him talk one wonld think 1 had fallen heir to a luindsonie fortune. 1 was the pam­ pered child of sickness; he was the un­ happy victim of health. After I had been rusticating in that garret for a little aver a week. I one day became greatly alarmed for the first time. To myindescribable horror I found that I was getting well. My bubble of happiness had burst. My gilded dream of joy was over. I was slowly but surely getting well. At the German Expulsion of Poles. rate I was convalescing.

The cutting down of forests in malarious countnes has often proved an excellent means ot amelioration; because, by re­ moving every obstacle to tbe direct action of the sun's rays on tbe surface of the soli, its humidity during the worm season is sometimes entirely exhausted.

The export trade of tho Pacific coatt with China, which a few years ago was controlled by white merchants, is now practically in the bands of the Chinese, whose facilities have increased with their growing knowledge of trade in this country. White men who ndw figure In our commercial relations w th the Flowery Kingdom are in many cases acting only us agents of Chinese firms or individuals. Tbe manifests of all tbe shipments from this port to China for the quarter ended June 30,. 1885. furnish a fair picture of the present condition of the export trade.' The total merchandise shipments to China by white houses for the quarter appear to have been f281,273.49. This includes all shipments from the cost, as cm braced in the exports, nominally, by the two China steamslvfl lines or their agente. which together exported mer­ chandise valued at tl63.901.57. The great part, in fact, nearly all of tbe shipments nominally by the steamship lines arc outside of Californian pro­ duction, the bulk being sheetings, ginseng, and arms and aminnnition. The remainder of the $281,273.49. or. >117,371.92. must be reduced by de­ duoting shipments by white persons who nominally ship for themselves, but who are known to other shippers as Kents for Chinese, to the amount of 8,357.81. This leaves the statement for merchandise exports for the quarter named, as follows: Direct by Chinese: >541,915.74; by white agents of Chinese. >43.357.81; total. .>585,278.57. The merchandise exports by whites are as follows: By transportation companies. >163,901.57; bv local business houses, >74,014.11; total; >237.915.68.- This shows the Chinese to have had control of about three-fonrtbs of the business for the quarter. During the quarter Chinese business houses sent out of the country treasure amounting to >913.507.55 to Hong Kong. The banks of California, Anglo-Californian Bank, and Hong Kong and Shanghai banking cor­ poration also sent to Hong Kong over >2,000,000. The largest item of export is flour, and. the flour trade between this port and China is generally known to be controlled by the Chinese. Some authorities state that ninfty per cent, of the export trade hencM to Chinese ports is controlled by the Ch nese mer­ chants. This condition of affairs tends to show that tbe local curse of China­ town is only a small part of the Chinese question, and the ease with which the Chinese absorb business has made them masters of the situat on. so far ae the export trade with their country is con­ cerned.—San b'ranciaco < hroniclc. —state of Michigan, on which here is claimed fe be doe U>e sum o! ed and fifty-two dollars and nlm-tyaud twcnly-five-dolhir* a* an actorivlded by otalute. making in all the Jiuudred and seventy-seven dollars _ ______ _ -eight rents, and no suit or proceed­ ing having fcee.’i Instituted either at law <>r ——ok,er the debt Declin’d by said mor: jaft thereof, notice is hereby given, B it t be power of <<de contained h: ;e/ and of the statute in such raw raided, said mortgage will he foresle of the mortgaged premises, at e to the highest bidder, on fifteenth ry A.

Goodyear & Sons. . . .. •------- —JK* Goodyear &, Barnes, --------- ARE---------- Progress is the watchword of our age, and progression is seen in every trade and every branch of business. ioo Years Ago people did not travel by steam nor talk by electricity. We could mention thousands of things they did not or could not do that their descendants do. Civilization and invention of better methods have made this great change. One hundred years ago people thought that the only way to transport Tea was in chests. The strength, flavor and quali­ ty of the tea was lost thereby. With a persistence worthy of a better effuse, some people, whose eyes are not opened to the progress of things, still think this is the only way to ship tea. The Perfection Tea Can is a modem invention.

He and Mrs. Hendricks walked out for nearly half an hour, and ho had ap­ parently regained bls physical vigor and cheerfulness. An hour later, however, he began to be troubled with pains in the region of his stomach, and Mrs. Hendricks sent for the family physician. Dr. W. C. Thompson. As the pains continued to increase he wan givenan emetic, and afterward au injection, and finally relief camo. Just before noon he had a relapse, how­ ever, and the physician was again sum­ moned, and administered tiie usual rem­ edies, besides bleeding tiie patient Mr. Hendricks again expressed himself as be­ ing greatly relieved. Mrs. Hendricks, who had been at his bedside all day, went • to the parlor to see a caller, who had come to consult with her regarding Uie affairs of a reformatory of'which she w as a manager, and she remained with him about twenty minutes. Tom. a colored servant, and Harry Morgan, Ah. Hendricks' nephew aud page in Washington, remained with him. The servant went out, and Mr. Morgan stayed. Mr. Hendr.cks tossed uneasily in his l>ed and complained of great pain, but suddenly It seemed to cease, and he said to hisnppbcw: ‘‘lam free at Inst; send for Eliza,*-meaning bls wife, and these were his last words, for the young man, not real­ izing the urgency of Uie message, did uot deliver it at once. . Just before five o'clock Mrs. Hcndrlcka eanie into tbe room and found Uiat her hus­ band was dead. Tiie end of a long and eventful life had come peacefully and quiet­ ly. He lay on the bed, outside the cover­ ing, only partially disrobed, wiUi bls eyee half closed, as If he were, in a gentie slum­ ber. On bls fgee there were no traces of pain or sufferipg. but a pallor had come over It which Vindicated only too plainly Hint he had passed away / Lt needed no close examination to tell tnat lie was dead, and Mrs. Hendricks screamed and ran down-stairs. A servant was dispatched to the resi­ dence of Dr. Thompson adjoining, aud he came immediately, but by the time he hail reached the bedside the limbs of the dead Vice-Presklent were becoming cold and rigid, and to Mr*. Hendrick’s pathetic ap­ peal: “Oh! doctor, can’t you do some­ thing?” he was obliged to answer “It to tc< Inte.” Mrs. Hendricks became almost distracted with grief, and It was an hour or more before she wks suffi­ ciently composed to give any informa­ tion about her husband’s last moments. The family \secvants, two of whom had lived with therfj for years, ran about tho house crying and moaning, and there was tho utmost confusion for a time. Dr. Thompson says that ip his opinion Mr. Hendricks died of paralysis of the brain. The news of Mr. Hendrick’s death spread rapidly throughout tbe city, and there was a genera! expression of sorrow over it A few minutes after Jib death forces of men began draping the State, county and dty buildings in black, and throughout tbe ulglrt similar emblems were placed on nearly all the prominent business houses and residen­ ces, so that by morning the city had put on a general garb of mourning.

Ralph R Hoyt, of Chicago, was one of the original Peter Cooper grembackers, and contrilrtited KberaHy of time and money to the organization and sup­ port of that party. But Mr. Hoyt is an intelligent man. who reads the signs of the timea-oright, and in the following letter to the Chicago Tribune, Novem­ ber 24th, tells what he thinks is the duty of greenbackers, now that their party has Surrendered to tbe democracy: •‘'Fhe editorial in The Tribune of last Friday on “Iowa greenbackere and the administration” contained some very important facte which every man of greenback proclivities should heed. Having been an active member of the old greenback organization for several years I think I understand the causes which led to its disintegration. The most potent of those causes was the fre­ quent fusions of greenback men with the malodorous old democratic party. The greenback party enlisted thousands of honest men, who, on all important questions save that of finance, were re­ publicans. They had never been any­ thing but republicans since that party was organized, and they could not be led into the democratic camp under any pretext whatever. Hence when they saw that thq.new party was being used simply as a tail to the democratic kite their disgust was “not loud but deep.” As a consequence thousands of them naturally drifted back into the republi­ can ranks, where they- could most ef. fectlvely fight the worst enemy this country has ever known-—the democra­ cy. Almost any of them had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of republican­ ism than dwell in the tents of demo­ cratic wickedness. “In the last presidential campaign numerous well-meaning greenbackers with democratic proclivities worked with that party, under the delusive idea that the party of secession and ballotbois-atuffiDg was friendly to greenback • principles. Nothing could be more ab­ surd. Asa political organisation the democracy has always been *a\hard money party,” and there is nothing in it to-day that even squints toward cur­ rency reform principles. Ite leaders, from the bulbheaded president down to bis most insigificant henchmen, are in full sympathy with Wall street gold- bugs and currency monopolists. They are opposed to the greenback currency, and to any further reduction of the banded debt. Many of them, indeed, would, if it were in their power, bring the money of tbe country down to a single gold standard. They have not one feeling in harmony with the atruggling massess, so far as relates to fi­ nance, labor reform, or anti-monopoly legislation. , “They laugh in their sleeves whenever they think how neatly they roped in . green1 «aokers under the false pretense of being a “reform party” with a desire “to rescue tire people from the cruel grasp of republican tyrants.” The prospact is that at the earliest possible day the president will, if he can, so recon­ struct tbe supreme court as to secure a repeal of the legal-tender act. Aud if ‘here is anything else the democrat# can do in the interest of Wall street it will be promptly done. “On the other hand, the republican party first gave to the country1 the greenback money. A republican con­ gressman and a republican president passed and approved a bill to preserve not lots than $346,000,000 of greenback currency when democrats were trying to destroy it And among the republi­ can statesmen who championed and voted for that wise measure was James G. Blaine—the man who, a year ago, was defeated for the presidency because of the most barefaced election frauds perpetrated in five or six states by this • same democratic party in the south, and t winked at Yy democrats in the north. “What W > meant by the words “Quench the spirit T Bright scholar— “Please, ma’am, my father uys he gueescB as how it means don’t put too much water in it” A day or two since a lad some ei-riit yearoof age said to his mother: “Moth­ er, which are we.

Every garden should have a straw­ berry pateh, and also raspberry, black­ berry and grape vines, as well as c.urrent and gooseberry bushes. It is the varie­ ty in the garden that makes it so use­ ful, and considering the vast amount that may be grown on a small area, provided it is made rich and well culti­ vated, it is the moat profitable portion of the farm. There is no reason why the farmer cannot enjoy the good things of life as well as the city people when he can raise them at home at a small expense. The author of the recent work, “hard times,” gives some most excellent ad­ vice to young men in a chapter entitled "Young America’’. He speaks of the sons of parents who are poof, or at beat, in moderate circumstances. They have a fair common school education, and, plenty of hojpe and expectation. None of them have any idea of being poor men all their lives, and nine-tenths dream of wealth, while not one in a hundred attain it. "To them he saya, “the luture looks bright, and they feel that there is a good time coming.” Their ambition now is to wear as good clothes as their companions, “to have a good tithe and enjoy life.” And so the time passes, the very harvest time of life, and time when they could save money if they would, because their ne­ cessary expenses are small*. How many, during these golden days of expectation and highest youthful vigor, lay by the foundation for future competence? The fewest number. Marriage and family cares, with increased expense, soon come, and the opportunities for saving are greatly lessened. Saving now, is at the expense of necessary com­ forts, perhaps, and not one alone, but a dependant family must bear the priva­ tion. The white dollars that formerly slipped so easily through the hands, now appear like cart wheels. Their ability and usefulness are circumscribed for want of capital, and all that they need to establish them in permanent, useful and portable business has been spent on "good.clothes” and "having a good time.’ The example of foreigners in our midst is urged upon the attention of these young men. "They are workers and save their money. They seldom put a coat on their backs without first having paid for It. They are not ashamed to be hewers of wood and drawers of water. They do not despise the day of small things—even of small savings. They are getting the start of Young Ameripa, and as between the two, those will come out on top who have the most money." . This is truth itself, but alas! the young men willnot accept it as such until they have learned-it from their own experi­ ence. and then years have been wasted. A few will learn from the experience of others, and these will prove the success­ ful men of the coming generation The faculty of saving is the foundation of final success—Ohio Farmer. Let every young man who reads the above learn it by heart, ponder over it. aud act nfj^n it while yet there is time. It would save many failures, much heart ache and much of what passes for “bad luck," that curse of lives started wrong. To none does this apply so well as to farmers. The Acrlcultunl College and ita gr*dnates. results. Never let the milk go into the calfs stomach colder &an S8 degrees Fahren­ heit. Use the thermometer regularlv in determining the warmth of milk. Make limewater by putting a lump of lime the size of a hen's egg into a jug of water and shaking. When the water ia dear it is ready for use. Keen the jug corked tight at all times. A tablesptx.nful of the clear lime water may be given with each feed, if the calf shows any signs of scours. If scouring occurs, re­ duce the amount of milk at once. An egg^ stirred in milk, and parched flour, are both excellent remediea. Over, feed­ ing not, feeding - enough, Irregularity, and cold milk are the principal causes of scouring. Teach the calf to eat whole oats. by the time it Is three weeks or a month pM. by slipping a few small handfuls Into ite mouth just after it has drunk ifa milk. TV hen it has learned to eat them, keep a supply before it In a little box. If you have not oats enough for the horses an I calves both, let the horses go without rather than the calvm. Do not waste time grinding the oftta. Bran, oil meal and other articles are good but oate are the most fatisfactory of all. I never knew of a calf eating while young keep each calf tied by itself, and if the files are troub­ lesome darken the stable. Do not put the young things out into the hot sun, with the idea tnat the little grass they may eat, will compensate for the blood sucked by the myraid of flies that pester them. We hate had lees trouble and better results with winter calves than with those that come in the spring. . Dismiss all prejudice that a skim milk calf must be a stunted, unsightly thing. We are making a great advance­ ment in calf rearing as In butter and cheese making, and old ideas must be put away.—Farm Guide. The luxury of a bath room, says an ex­ change, can be afforded by only the com­ paratively few who live in furnace or steam-heated dwellings. Bathing In cold rooms is always dangerous; anc yet the farmer, mechanics and many others who are able to have a few luxuries, can afford least of all to do without the com­ fort and refreshment of frequent bath­ ing after toilsome days work. The first means of resting is to make one’s self clean. If more farmers realized this, not so many of them would leave the harvest field or the threshing, ma­ chine or covered with the sweat and dust of the day, eat a hearty supper and go to bed as soon as the chores are done, sleeping in the same soiled' under gar­ ments they have worn all day. They always get up tired. Why? Resting consists of two processes—throwing off the effete matter of the body and assim­ ilating a new supply of fresh material from the blood. Now when the farmer or anybody else goes to bed with the soiled under-clothes of the day, with his skin covered, with a thin coat of dust and prespiration, the system can’t get rid of its effete matter, becaure the pores are clogged up; while the absorbents of the skin .actually convey back into the system the poisonous matter, once thrown off, but which has been allowed to stay on the skin and clothes. It should be the rule of all to never go to l>ed dirty. For morning iMithing, cold water is the most invigorating; but the tepid bath is the right thing for the evening when one is tired. And, unless one has| a well-appointed bath room in a furnace-heated house we rec­ omend the sponge bath as the quickest, neiitest and most satisfactory method.— Colman’s Rural World. S&{cgUMrdH AgMltmt Fire. Always buy the best quality of oil. Never make a sudden motion with a lamp, either in lifting or setting it down. Never put a lamp on the edge of a table or mantel. Never fill a lamp after dark, even if you should have to go without a light See that it works freely in the tube. Never blow a lamp out from the top. Matches should always l>e kept in stone or earthen jars or in tin. They should never be/left where rate and mice can get hold of them. There is nothing more to the taste of rate than phosphorus. They will eat it if they can get it A bunch of matches is al­ most certain to be set fire to if a rat gets at it. Have perfectly good safes in every place where matches are to be used and never let a match be left on the floor. Never let a match go 'out of your hand after lighting it until you are sure the fire is out, and then it is better to put It in a., stove or earthen dish. Never leave any wood near a furnace, range or stove to dry. Have your stove looked to frequently to see that there is no holes for coals to drop out. Never put any hot ashes or coals m a wooden receptacle. Be sure there are no cur­ tains or shades that can be blown into a gas light—Fireman’s Herald. To the often repeated remark that Agricultural College graduates are rare­ ly found on farms, the last triennial catalogue is a square denial. The Agricultural College does educate farmers, as shown in tbe following . /statistics: The first class of seven grad­ uated in 1861, and the institution now has, when a little past her majority, 331 graduates, 312 of whom are living, 216 of tiie 312 be residents of Michigan. Of the 312 graduates there are 115 farmers; 16 professors or instructors in Agricul­ tural Colleges; five horticulturists; three fruit culturists; four apiarists; nine engineers; four machinists and mechan­ ics. The above, with the addition of a housemother, an artist, a librarian, an agirculturaleditor, a veterinary surgeon and some signal service employes, make In the Rural of August 26, want of the number of graduates engaged in oc­ clealiness is given as the reason why cupations relating to the industrial arte teeth decay.

The writer of this article not long since wasXseated ih one of the conven­ ient coaches of The M. C. IL R. Co. on the way home. The car stood on the track waiting for the time of its depart­ ure and was tilling up somewhat brisk­ ly. with all sorts of people, when there entered a young man followed by an el­ derly lady and one much younger. Although the elderly lady wore a face quite wrinkled with age and her hair was freely sprinkled with gray, while the young.man was fair in features and perhaps thirty years younger and show­ ed all the freshness of youth, it was ap­ parent they were mother and son,and the younger of the ladies was a member of the group by reason of the sacred tie of marriage, she being known as the daughter-in-law by reason of that Itgal fiction which says a man and his wife are one. In fronf of me was a vacant seat. The thoughtful fellow selected it for the mother, because aa he said it was on the shady side ofHhe car and near the center and would be easier for her to ride. It was yet five minutes before starting time and the mother and son talked of home and when be would come and see her. Suggestions were made bv him that about the 4th of July would he a holiday and the time, but she quickly Intimated that there would be four holidays before July 4th, and it was finally understood that the first holiday—the thanksgiving timeshould be the one. The younger of the ladies sat in an opposite seat taking no part in the convvrsatiotL except by her looks which showed herAo be greatly Interested in the plans and willing to do her part toward their consummation. The warning of the ball is heard and the voung man kisses the mother a good bye. The young lady kisses her too, and then turn to leave when again the young man turns and kisses the dear bld face again and she says “He’s the best man in the world." But they are out of sight and I give my attention to the mother. She sat there the picture of happiness and con­ tentment. I thought 1 could read in her face her thoughts. Her face seem­ ed to say and sustain this. It is a month before Thanksgiving, during that time I will get ready for this visit. I know what he likee. He shall have a glad welcome and a royal dinner anil nothing shall be left undone to him and his wife happy during all their visit And I thought if death should come to either before the Thanksgiving time that much of the sorrow would be shielded by that happy loving parting.

During the past decade records have steadily been low­ ered. and Mr. Bonner is authority for the statement that he expects Maud S. will surpass her time of a day or two ago before the summer closes. It is my firm opinion, buwd on many ybara of deep study of the evolution of tho trot­ ting horse, that before another gener­ ation passes we shall hear of trotting horses who can biake a mile under two minutes. Homes are bred nowadays for the single purpose of bringing ont their trotting qualities, just as in En­ gland they are bred solely with refer­ ence to running. Now. if a lot of thoroughbred homes are bred within themselves, without admitting any mongrel blood, and if they are trained solely for trotting, there is no question that man can bring the record down to two minutes and under. “Mr. Robert Bonner, who owns Maud S., ridicules such an idea, and he may think this an impossible result. I am aware, as he says, that trotting is an acquired gait for a home and that running is his natural gait But still my theory holds, and If the thorough­ bred trottar is carried through one gen­ eration after nnottier, we shall one day see a horse which can trot ifi two min­ utes.—A’ew Hauen Seiot. fortune (?) left to him some where out W.

For a few democratic loaves and fishes; for a few paltry offices from the Cleve­ land administration; tbe greeirtwck leaders have surrendered for themselves, and bound their party to tho sale, all the principles of the greenback party: have sol'd out all, even to tbe name, of party honesty and integrity. Who has gained by. this wholesale Burrenddr of 'all that a party or its members can regard as distinctive of that party ? Who has profited by this corrupt bargain-and-sale political deal ? Who can look upon this wreck of a once strong and growing political party, and say “I am richer Ixtause of this ruin of party, party name and party honor?" Is the honest member of the rank and file the gainer by this deal? Does he hope for the suoceas of greenback prin­ ciples by the unblushing surrender of those principles together with party , name and honor ? Does he hope that a democratic administration will strive for the success of greenback principles ? No; he knows better. He understands that this deal has left him wito'^L a to jugnixant m the fact that the party which fought the greenback when it was born, and whose only rep­ resentative on the supreme bench lately said it waa not lawful money Is not burdened with friendship for the green­ back. He knows that a president who has Standard Oil Whitney in his cabi­ net is no anti-monopolist. He can see that an administration that in nine months does not pay a dollar of the bonded debt is Dot very much burdened with "retrenchment and reform.’' The land-holding aristocrats of the south, who dominate in democratic councils, are not friendly to tbe popular meas­ ures which the greenback party has urged. The free trade tendencies of the democratic party are directly opposed to the ideas of Peter Cooper, and othets of the revered names in the greenback party history, and will bring mischief and suffering to the laborers and farm­ ers of our land. Clearly then the rank and file ot the greenback party will gain nothing, will ioee everything, by this tail end alliance with the demoeratic party. Who has profited, and who will profit by this unholy alliance ? None but a few designing leaders. D. R. Waters ■ gets the Marsbatohip for Western Mich­ igan. W. F. Hicks becomes bis deputy for Barry county. A brother of Senator Hampton's is made postmaster at Harbofr Springs. A few other lucrative offices will be distributed among those other greenbackers who took a leading hand in the fusion. - These, are the men who profit''by the bargain, who make money out of it.

These were found as far south as 39 degrees, and were in the line of the steamships that ply between Europe and America. Navigation, therefore, has been extra perilous, for the vapor of icebergs is foggy, and in the night there is no means of gauging how near they are to a ship. The City of Berlin, with 1,400 passengers, struck an iceberg in tho night, but she was saved from destruction by her long bowspnt and prow, an unusual appendage to a newly built steam-vessel. Inventors have recently been at work to find means ot protecting steamships from these col­ lisions.

The report he Agricultural Department for ISfk) ined a very able article on the sui>em the pen of Prof. E. W. Stewieh had a decided influence on '«tmind. Large number* of g and progrereive farmers rangrrnwite fur st- anung or • the food cooks-d a»d fed tn warm steblea' A like numlier of dairy farms were visited wh*re the cows were fed on un­ cooked provender of similar character— hay and straw. From all these farms were obtained the records of milk pro­ duction and approximating accuracv relating — -» — »— [^ngto amount of bay —and grain. ♦u reference also to value, when tboMftjnrre subjw-Ud" to those figures were suhiert«l tn it was found that in every instance a quart of milk obtained from uncooked food w;is produced at less coat than a quart from cooked food, and, in the lat­ ter case, no charge was made for the labor of cooking and cutting the fodder. Yh,t'h are items of some importance. A series of experiments conducted duringlast summer at the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station, seems to prove that cooking food for stock diminishes its nutritive value, as oompared with the same food in a raw state. They show that cooking not only destroys a part of tbe nutritive elements v ...f00t1, kut also renders it less digestible. It seems cjuite evident that so long as the country has abundant crop, of coarse grains and forage, cookmg food, at least for dairy cows, will not be extensively practiced by intelli­ gent farmers.

The newspaper man looked la tbe direction indicated and beheld tbe ob­ ject of his' friend’s remark. Tbe foot *" attached to the leg of an elegantly dressed young gent'emaa. The foot .. . .• « KC“*TO“"H- 4UV indicated wts tho right foot, and it was only of moderate size, but it made a terrible impriut in the mud whieh car­ peted the planes where the crossing usually exists at street corners. The left foot was of toe same size, but it made a print only about one-half as large, and a very neat impression it was. The owner "of the pair wm. as before remarked, handsomely dressed, and would have presented n very stylish appearance tout for the right foot, which was not acting in a right manner. "Flippiiy flop, flippity flo »!” sa d the gruff man, kt eping time with his words to the step of the stylish young gentle­ man. “That young fellow hasn’t yet learned what a c.ifld ought to have done during its first year on earth. He hasn't learned to walk.” The whole trouble with the vouug man was a peculiarity which toe re­ porter soon learned is quite common; he turned the right foot "in” and man­ aged the other one properly With the toes turned slightly "qut.” "Now you just notice.” said toe gruff man. "how many people there will comu along in the next few minutes -who walk along as civilized beings ought to walk.” The first man who came by toe watching pair was a short, fat one. He was hurrying along, breathing short and perspiring freely. He had a very black cigar in his mouth, and he blew out a short, thick puff of smoke, with every breath ' averaging two pulls to every step. He turned both feet square­ ly out, almost at right angles with his body. "Now/he goes to an extreme.” re­ marked the gruff-voiced man, "but he errs on virtue s side. He'd better turn them both out than walk pigeon-toed. If ho didn't turn them out. with al) the weight of fat he has to carry, he’d {irobably fall down pretty often. Now ook at this.” ' . He referred to a tall young max whose cortume included a pair of very _ short pants. This young man leaned forward, and his long body rocked from side to side as he propelled him­ self forward.

Hundreds of men were pot to work to turn the course of the stream, but the eontluued ralu of Saturday night and Sunday has rendered tbplr efforts useless- Saturday night the water readied a depth of two hundred feet In the Hoflelgb shaft and broke Into the Ebervale mine.

As time proceeds, congress can afford to sul>tract rather than to add to the precau­ tions with which it is now encumbering the transactions of the pension bureau, and even then thousands upon thou­ sands of our patriot soldiers will have gone to their graves without the com­ fort in their declining days to which they were justly entitled.—Detroit Tri­ bune. vouslv)—“No-o.

Presi­ dent Cleveland reviewed what he has done (?) for civil cervice reform. The principles he announces are correct; for they are those of the republican part}, which is responsible for whatever pro­ gress civil service reform may have made. But the practice of the demo­ cratic administration has been directly opposed to its professions. While pre­ tending to further a reform of the civil service, faithful, efficient officers have been bounced, and their places filled by democrats whose only claim was service to their qarty, and very dirty service too, in some instances. If President Cleveland had stated that republican officers would be removed because they were republicans, he would be credited with honesty. As it is now, his actions show .the rank­ est of hypocrisy.

Hood’s Sarsaparilla WILL CUR£ The Rural Naw Yorker is responsi­ ble for the following which is novel to say the least It may be practical. We mean to try it. Whether it ba or not we believe we are on the eve of a more better way than the old of harvesting corn: ■ Most of our corn crop is good, though not as gcKKl as in some years: reason, too much rain and too little sunshine and heat We have a method of harvesting which we have never seen mentioned, but which we like ever somuab; it beats a oom busker all out of sight. We put the com in bundles as cut and set it in pretty large shocks, and when well cured, on a Bright dav we draw it to the bams and run stalks, corn and all through an ordinary wheat thrashing machine with the concave dropped down, and prepared on purpose. The machine is run by steam, the oom is fed butt-«nd first and is husked, shelled and cleaned all at one operation and in first class style. No com is left among the stalks, and the big parts of these are so broken that they can be run with the straw-carrier, into the mows, and, mix­ ed with a little straw, keep in the best condition. It is nd large day's work to thrash from 500 to 800 bushels of shell­ ed corn. In fact, when in good order almost the only limit is the amount that can be got to the machine. We, last fall, thrashed 600 bushels in a day easily.

Washington, Dee. 24.—The annual re­ port of Jacob Mueller, United States Con­ sul General at Frankfort-on-Uro-Malu, says that tlie people of that country have fallen Into the waju and ideas of feudal timea. They dread, he says, the Importation of American hogs, wheat, and Ameri­ can imports generally, but still more the Importation of American kteab. Not only te the tendency to reUogresaion noUceable. he says, in the political, eco­ nomic add religious spheree of life, but tlie barriers existing between mankind are also fostered mid multiplied to such au extent that the spirit of caste te agalu becoming promhienu The depression ot trade and industry hi. Germany continued during Uie year, the new tariff system having proved ft lallure. The declared value of exixirts from Genusny to the United States dur­ ing 1884 amounted to 859,7118,744. a de­ crease of 85.881,975 as compared with Uie previous year. The piiin-)>ml deemse was in china ami laireeiaiu • ware, hat-bands and ribbons, hides und skins^ linens, dress goods and Jewelry. There was an In­ crease In the exports of drugs and cliutnlente, wines and liquors. Iron and steel goods, hair and glass. The emigration from Germany to the Uulle.I States fell ot forty per cent during the first nine inoutlis of 1385.

Tlie great import of foreign wheat lias caused a demmffi for highei' duties, whicli would practlcally ain.ount to prohibition. In conclusion Con­ sul Mueller aaya that the present strife of nntluns for industrial and commercial su­ premacy suggests an American policy of free ships, industries iinlrannncled by burdiinsoine taxes, and vigorous protection of Americans abroad. Wahiiinoton, Dec. 25.—The report of Consul-General Mueller, stationed at Frankfort-on-thu-Maln, on the feeling of Germany toward the United States, te like­ ly to lead to a diplomatic correspondence between the two countries, and probably ti­ the demand, on Ihe port of Germany, foi Mr. Mueller’s recall. if the German Government demands Mr Mueller’s recall (his Govenimeut will hnv.to eymply, but Mr. B-ryanl will not do sc without making It pretty plain that the United States doe- not recognize the rigid of any nation to restrict the Iilierty of s)>eecb of A'nnrigan citizens, and that it U not held by it to be an offense to entertain repub­ lican ideas. It is thought that tills episode will render <>ur.relations with Germany still more strained and that site will be placed on our-list with Austria. NKW YEAB’rt .l*AV AT thK WHITE 1IOV8K.

Gates. It appears that Mr. Gatesand Beni. Pike of this village were passing through the woods about noon and discovered the headless Ixxiy of a man lying on the ground. Tlie head was found hanging from a limb of the tree several feet Jrom the ground. Both arms had dropped off. The flesh was’entirely off the upper part of the trunk. In the clothing was found a pint bottle which had contained alcohol, a half pint bot­ tle which had contained whiskev and a part of a paper of smoking tobacco. The remains were found to be those of a man named Burrows, who disappear­ ed some time in August or September, and has not been seen since. He had l»een working for some time at H. L. Moore’s, north of Middleville, when he deft there he came to this village and purchased several feet of rope and some alcohol. From here he went to Wm. Bowen's in Yankee Springs, where his daughter was working. Remained there over night and until after dinner the next tlay. When he left he gave his daughter what money he had, telling her that if she did not see him in two weeks that she never would. Nothing more was seen of him after ■that., and the most diligent inquiry has failed to discover his wherealouts. From remarks which he made before leaving Mr. Moore’s, it was thought that he had contemplated taking his own life. He was for some time a resi­ dent of this village, living with liis son aud daughter. Something over a year ago the son was married. The new ad­ dition to the household did not add to his comfort any and he was Anally set adrift. Since that time he has been without a hqine or any one to look out for him. He was a Scotchman by birth, was about 70 years old.

Several of hh succesaors have renewed his recommendation with great otumeMneas. Hon. Thomas L. Jamas, after .referring to and highly approving of the&-recommendations, said: “It is my earnest conviction that a systcin of this •dascription, it, adopted, would Inure, more than almbjjt any other metmurc'of public importance, to tlie Working peo­ ple of the United States. In 1873 Hon. Horace Maynard brought before Con­ gress a bill to establish a National Savings Depository, but no action was taken. Since then a number of efforts havq been.made to indnee Congress to enact the necewsary legislation. The latest of these efforts was made in 1882, under the leadership of Mr. Lacey, whose report from the Commit­ ted on Post-Offices ami Post-Roa<b con. tains valuable information and sugges­ tions on the subject. Th,, bill which Mr. Lacev introduced, and which has rcccntlv been strongly indorsed by the State Charities Aid Aetsociation of New York, and other advocates of postal savings-banks, provided that none but money order offices should receive deposit'd that no aln^e deposit should be less than ten cents nr more than one hundred dollars; that nu one person'should deposit more than one hundred dollars within thirty dava, ot have at any time more than five' hun­ dred dollars to bis credit, nnd that in­ terest at two per cent, should be paid on all sums over three dollars and mul­ tiples of one dollar, beginning tho first of the month following the deposit, and stopping Uie last of the month preced­ ing the withdrawal.—IW.

So uZu“ r v» me wood that, in spite oi the strictest regulations, workmen sometimes persist in smoking even amid the most dangerous sur­ roundings.” . -In a single day pipes and matches were found m the pockets of fifty-eight workmen as they were just entering the powder works at Hounslow. The blowing up of a powder magazine in Mexico, and many houses, near by, with the destruction of several lives, was caused by the dropping of a single dgar. After the Blantyre explosion in 18 <9, resulting in the death of twentveight persons the inspector ot mines found matches and partly smoked pipes lying near tlie belies. Says an insur­ ance agent: One-third or more of aU the tires in my circuit have originated from matches and pipes. Fires in England and America are being kin­ dled with alarming frequency by smok­ ers casting about their firebrands or half burnt matches.’’ In addition to tlie pathetic appeal to the head and heart by the -figures of which we have cited samples. thefcauthor gives a list of distinguished abstain­ ers, some of whom left off the costly and degrading tobacco habit on account of its detriment to health? memory and general usefulness. Gladstone, for ex­ ample. is quoted as -detesting” the nox­ ious weed; and John Ruskin “entirely abhors the practice of smoking, his dis­ like of it being mainly based on the be­ lief that a cigar or pipe will often make a man content to be idle for any length of time.’’ tourt of ____ io traveled _______ _ about a fortnight on horseback under the direction of a hired guide.**' That madam wa« regarded as rather odd is evident from the reception she received on the first night after start­ ing. “1 was interrogated,'* she writes, “by a young lady.

A reptile is not. perhaps, an amiable thing. Its. name—"that which creeps”, prejudices one against it. We would as soon make friends off-hand with a ghoul or vampire ns with a reptile. Nor is there anything thoroughly un­ justifiable in this sentiment. The ne­ cessities of speech require n word that shnll. compendiously express the idea of the contemptible and crawling, and at tho sunn- time potentially hurtful. And "reptile" fulfils this obnoxious duty. So when Beattie applies this term of reproach' to a servile poet, or Byron to a mean critic, they are not to fo* found fault with. The sycophant in Shelley* the slave in Montgomery, oven man—"tlie poor reptile man” himself —in loftily moralizing Groome arc metaphorically rendered, and not un­ fairly, bv a tern, that zoologically< implies either a turt^. a^crocodile, a froc. n lizard or a snake. ’Scattered up and down in verse will be found scores of individuals whom the poete, anxious to stigmatize as despicably base, de­ nominate "reptiles.” Now. all Uiis is perfectly fair. We have attnohed to a certain word a cer­ tain metaphorical meaning, which is a very odious om*.

Some interesting particulars are given by M. Escalle, director of the import­ ant works at Tamaris, in regard to the employment of blocks of compressed coal, in liqu of coke, for blastfurnaces. With the ores of the country, which are argilo-silioious and small, the quan­ tity of compressed fuel employed is twenty per cent, but with those of Motka or Pilhais it reaches regularly thirty per cent It has been found that by the use of these blocks a much higher temperature of hot blast is obtaiiwd, nnd that the proportion of com­ bustible (consumed—coke and com­ pressed fuel included—per ton of pig iron prodnoed is letDt than with coke alone. M. Escalle attributes this re­ sult to the quantity of water, one and one-half per cent., eonteinad in .the compressed coal blocks _nsed by him, as well as to the nature of the volatile matters. The volume of gas obtained per ton of Ihe cofopressctf fuel, at those works, was about seven thousand teeL -N. K S*n. H Byun: PMi- .>.'*Uriu, CW11- mb<!

Burton &amp; Co. were listed as the proprietors of the "Republican Banner", which first appeared here on May 1, 1856, with Dr. C. S. Burton as the publisher and Norman Bailey as editor.<br /><br />Publication office was on the second floor of the Rower Block, whose address was given as "corner of State and Church"; which corner was not specified.<br /><br />The objective of this publication was to win support for the newly created Republican party and thus counteract the influence of the Barry County Pioneer, a Democratic journal that had been published here since 1851. No copies of the first three issues of The Banner were saved.<br /><br />Make-up on the first journal corresponded with a pattern typical of most local journals then published. Page one contained a few columns of advertising, fiction (often a continued story), and a short feature of no particular news value. Page one was the "literary" page.<br /><br />Page two contained the editorial barbs, along with state news, political articles, Washington items and news of the national and territorial giovernments. Page three contained a few items of local news, sandwiched inbetween the local and foreign news.<br /><br />Page four was usually solid with advertising and as such was the editor's "bread and butter" page....Locally it was the pattern until the early 1880s.<br /><br />Several changes in ownership and management occurred during the first two years of publication, with J. M. Nevins taking over ownership interests on July 16, 1857. With the issue of May 7, 1862, "The Republican Banner" became "The Hastings Banner". Editor Nevins thought the village had developed sufficiently during the past several years to merit this recognition.<br /><br />Another major change in the management of The Banner came when Nevins sold the newspaper to George M. Dewey of Niles on March 14, 1866, who then took over as editor and publisher. Dewey, an ardent Republican and somewhat of a crusader, gave considerable space to editorial comment and party affairs and also directed pointed paragraphs against the saloons and local traffic in liquor. Dewey was the grandfather of Thomas E. Dewey, Republican presidential nominee in 1944 and 1948. Editor Dewey on May 4, 1870 changed the format (and name) of the paper to "Hastings Republican Banner". <br /><br />A fire in December 1883 burned The Banner plant (located in the middle of the block on the north side of State St. across from the courthouse). Files and back issues from August 1880 to December 1883 and the January 4, 1884 issues are missing.<br /><br />The Banner was purchased by Marshall L. Cook and George Bower on July 21, 1880. They changed the name to "The Hastings Banner". M. L. Cook soon became the sole owner and remained so until July 7, 1887 when Albert Nishern (M. L.'s brother-in-law) joined him. Albert Nishern sold his interest on November 6, 1889 to William Cook (M. L.'s younger brother).<br /><br />The Cook brothers partnership held together (56 years) ... Richard Cook followed his father into the newspaper business, and Richard's son William joined him. So the Cook family ownership continued for 85 years, from 1880 to 1974, when Richard and William sold the paper to High Fullerton. J-Ad Graphics became the owners of "The Hastings Banner" in August of 1981. Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
