Arabi Rey and his adherents have been proclaimed rebels by the Sultan of 1 urkey. It will be remembered that Yennor said we would have “a year without a summer.” Texas will have 50,000,000 bushels of ! com to Bell this year. Last year the State had to import. Potatoes nro being offered in Illinois for twenty-five cents a bushel for fat delivery, with no takers. Mr. Gladstone looks upon De Leu seps as a private individual, but De Les sejis doesu t, not by anv means. I More than four times the average an nual destruction of life by lightning has already occurred in the United States this season. George Scoville profioses to com mence action in court against Dr. Hicks for the possession of what there is of Guiteau’s body. The Denver Tribune invites the Malley boys to include Denver in their summer jaunt. It significantly adds that there are several trees with convenient limbs, close to town. At the Indian agency, Pi ne Ridge, Dakota, the Indians offer a reward of *SO for the apprehension of any person who sells, trades, or gives to any Indian J or half-breed intoxicating liquors. 1 iie Detroit Free Press figures up that there have been 167 deaths from tetanus this year, caused by the toy pistol, and suggests that next Fourth of July arse nic be used as a less fatal substitute. A cotemporary thoughtfully observes that “each place thinks its own river and harbor appropriation all right, but that in other places it is a steal. ” So it ee^^nefif. dli __ Eleven schoolboys in Geneseo walked to Niagara Falls, August 4, 1832, and agreed to meet there again, if living, in fifty years. Seven of, them kept the promise, coming with their wives and children on the 4th just past. The Trustees of the Loveland Camp meeting have decided to sell the Har rison cottage in dispute and to give the Rev. Harrison S2OO of the proceeds. Of course, this is in addition to the SIOO a week he received for his services. The extensive Avar preparations in Russia evidently has some significance. If it detracts the attention of Nihilists from the Czar, there will be a probabil ity of the coronation taking place. The Czar no doubt looks upon the project with favor. A Western paper, apologizing for Mormon polygamy, thoughtfully re marks that the system does not throw the burden of supporting a husband upon one woman. That is the best ar gument that has been advanced in favor of polygamy. Texas, which is said to have 590,000 acres of school laud, rapidly appreciat ing in value, and worth probably SIOO,- 000,000, is expected to have in tbe not distant future a school fund of $250,000,- 000, a sum greater than the combined school fund of all the States. The floral business is one of the best, most prosperous and most rapidly in creasing of any in the country. In New York $10,000,000 is now expended for flowers annually, and as much as $5 given for a single rosebud. The town has gone flower mad, and no one can eat or dance or marry or die vitliout a shower of flowers, and this craze is spreading. _ A writer for tlie New York Herald was talking with a few felloiv journalists the other day, and said: “Not long ago Mr. Connery, our managing editor, Avas summoned as a witness in court. Mr. Bennett called him and said: ‘You will be asked wliat position you occupy here. Say that you are a clerk. I am the edi tor of the Herald, and the only editor. The members of the Garibaldi family have erected over the tomb of the Gen eral a large granite monolith, weighing four tons. The tomb is watched day and night. The decision as to the final resting place is left to Parliament, which inclines to the Janiculum.

Advices from Sagun, Cuba, report the destruction < f the corn crop, owin" to he extreme drouth. The President of the Central Board of Agriculture of tlio Republic of Columbia, writes the Captain General, warning him to take effective measures to prevent the larvre mid locusts devastating that Republic from being introduced into Cuba by vessels carrying cattle to the Island It is recommended that cattle on vessels be fed with hay only. It is thought that the locusts will soon invade the United ‘States after reaching Cuba. The jury who acquitted the Malley boys and Blanche Douglass of the mur der of Jennie Cramer, held a grand re union the other day, visiting Savin Bock, where the girl's dead body was found, and other scenes. The re-union was marked with hilarity and story tell ing. Meantime, Blanche Douglass is * 1 joying herself with fashionable people at watering places, where she was seen by one of the jurors, who related to his fellow jurors the attention she was at tracting, and how supremely happy she seemed to be. New Haven people are peculiar. A olance at the naval register shows that with a total force of 12,000 men, including marines, we have twelve Rear Admirals, twenty-two Commodores, [ sixty Captains, 110 Commanders, 315 Lieutenants, 180 Masters, 400 Ensigns, while the Naval Academy is prepared to add from year to year largely to the number of the latter. This is certainlv a large enough staff of officers to com mand as great a navy as we shall pos sibly ever need, and it is quite natural that a movement, such as that recently inaugurated by Senator Miller.,_of Cali- fornia, should be . 10e the number nf off r * "‘ do 0 r< y some to make it in , asure proportionate to the of seamen and marines. ■| Of all the English correspondents at Alexandria, it is to be said that they ha te shared the perils they have de scribed. Afloat they have shown them selves ready to face shot and shell, and ashore the knives of Arabi’s assassins, not to speak of mobs and explosions. They have done their work under a cli mate of great heat, and have done a great deal of it. Altogether, they have been a credit to their profession, and the profession seems in no particular hurry to take credit to itself or award due measure to the brave and brilliant men who lift journalism a step higher by their devotion and capacity and courage. The public looks on in wonder at the quantity of readable matter turned out each morning for its eager perusal. The Library at Abbotsford. The library is tlie handsomest apart ment at Abbotsford. It is fifty feet in length bv thirty in breadth, and has an immense bay-window that affords a charming glimpse of the l weed. Ihe ceil inf is carved after designs from Mel rose Abbey. There are twenty thou sand volumes here and in the study. The book-cases were made under Sir Walter’s direction, by his own work men. Sonic of them coni am rare and curious old books and MSS. that aie carefully guarded under lock and kev. Here, oh the wall, is the portrait of Sir Walter’s eldest son, who was Colonel of the Fifteenth Hussars. He went out to Madras in 1839, and was a very pop ular and efficient officer; but he soon fell a victim to the fatal climate of India and died on the return voyage to En gland, whither lie had been ordered on account of his health. Here, too, is the bust of Sir Walter at the age of forty nine. by Chantrcy. There are chairs exquisitely wrought, from the.Borghese Palace at Rome, the gift of the Pope; a silver urn upon a stand of porphyry, from Lord Byron: and an ebony cabi net and set of chairs presented by Km® Geor-aIV. In a glass case, shielded from "the touch of profane fingers, are the purse of Rob Roy; the brooch ot his wife; a note-book in green and gold, once the property of Napoleon I ; and a gold snuff-box, also given bv King (ieorf e IV. W lien this royal 1 nend Avas Reo-ent, he invited Scott to dine with him in London, addressing him famil iarly as “Walter,” and showering upon him evidences of lbs esteem; when he succeeded to the throne, one of the hist acts of the kingly prerogative was to create him a Baronet. — St. Nicholas / Deadly Weapons. A detective frightened a young man nearly to death yesterday. The young man was standing on the corner when the detective tapped him on the shoul der and said; “I shall have to arrest you for carrying deadly weapons.” Ihe voung man turned pale, and his lips quivered, and he stammered out that he never carried a revolver or a knife in his life. “Yes.” said the detective, “that may be all right, but look at your shoes.” The young man looked at his pointed, tooth-picked-toed shoes and asked what was the matter with them. Then the detective told him the shoes were so sharp at the toes that if lie should get mad and kick a man he would split him wide open. Then the detective winked, and said: “You may o-o, his t ime, but don’t let it occur again. Z-feck's Milwaukee Sun. Farmers and Farm Help. As there are “books and books*’- meaning good and bad ones—so there |*ro "men and men.” Some farmers never have any trouble with their help irnd the farm work moves as steadily and with as little friction as clock-work* •there arc incessantly in trouble anti everything goes wrong. We are ac quainted with men who are laborers by the month or year on the farm, and who make their employers’ interest their °'Y n * „ T ! le y Av °rk as well when the boss is away as when he is near and, m everything they do, they consid er how they would act if in their employ er s position. There are others, also who labor simply for the money they re ceive; they have no interest in the work, but listen with a keen ear for the dinner horn and watch with eager eye for the setting of the sun. To do'the work somehow— not necessarily well—is the principle which governs them. 3he farmer who is p irticular as to wh an he employ s; who ,ms the bargain well understood, who pavs well, pays Willingly and pays promptly; who ap preciates good service and fairly fulfills his part of the agreement, need have little fear of being troubled by his help, r or such employ ers there is always some 011 c to oiler se vice; t such employers are sought by “h.red men,” and in nine cases out of ten, satisfaction is mutual. But, unfortunately, not all employers are thus careful as to whom they hire or how they treat their help. They se lect from the “rough scuff” cla-s, from tramps and those who never have had a steady situation, simply because they* can hire them for twenty-five cents less per day though, in reality, they receive a half dollar per dav less in return for services. The usual result is that the farmer has to oversee all his work per sonally, look after the implements when not in use, go here and go there to give instructions, and thus lose largely liis own time which, with intelligent, in dustr yus help, could be elsewhere more proliti bly employed. In fact, each is intent on getting the most possible from the oUier, neither having the welfare of ,at heart. Such a condition of .-' t“fnSS lthr “S reesblo t>r pro H- bJc. \\i are vvare that the same differ e n c/a re liable to arise between em plo/rs and employed in other occupa tio# but the effects are more striking anluore not iceable on the farm than in th Jvork-sh °P or store where the rou tine*? yis more easily marked and *hi T|*>)o'. : is more mechanical in hi na- Farm work can never to *Bch exactness in deta : that the workman can ] erform it satisfactorily unless he is thoroughly interested n it, and in hearty sympathy with his em ployer. So much for the hired hand, and on the otljpr hand, to keep this in terest alive, there must be on the part of th# employer the approval and appre ciation of work faithfully done. But there is something more in this than the bare fa ts <J work well done anu well remunerated. There is a gen uine satisfaction on tlte part of both em ployer and employe, and the resultant happiness whi<% accrues to the men themselves and to their respective fami lies is a thing to be sought for and prized. But when tiie men are continually at “loggerheads,” their families feel the reactive influence, and even society is, in a degree, affected adversely by it. Whatever, then, will br ng about mutu al contentment and good will among farmers and their help should be fos tered, and while “hired men” are falli ble, the farmer should remember that it is largely in his power to make their mutual relations agreeable, —llural New Yorker. A “Rustler” in Dakota. Bismarck lias a “boomer.” He is hired by the Chamber of Commerce, at a o-ood salary, to ride upon tlie trains ea'st of Fargo and talk to emigrants about the advantages of settling near the Banner City. In a word, he is a drummer for his toAvn. When 1 was there lie had not started upon his mis sion and I found him plowing a field f OV oats on the only farm within sight of the town. He Avas a member of tbe Territorial Legislature, he said, and he demonstrated his capacity for the busi ness of booming by fifteen minutes of intefti®ent conversation on the capacity of tin”soil of Burleigh County and its attractions to people who by the plow would thrive. He was evidently what they call in Dakota a “rustler.” To say that a man is a rustler is the highest indorsement a Dakotan can give. It | means that he is pushing, energetic, smart and successful. The word and its derivations have many shades of meaning! To rustic around is to bestir one’s self i a business way. “What are you going to do in Mandan?” asked one man of another in a Bismaick sa loon. “Oh, I’ll rustle around and pick up something,” which meant that he Avould look about for a good business opening. “Rustle the things off' that table,’’"means clear the table in a hurry. To do a rustling business is to carry on an a'-tive trade. The word Avas coined bv the Montana herdsmen to describe the action of cattle brushing the siioav from the roots of the bunch-grass with their noses. — Century Magazine. In sentencing a colored man who was convicted of stealing a pair of pants, an Austin Judge took occasion to say : “I hope you are sorry for stealing those pants.” “ I was sorry, Judge, de same day I tuck dem ar pants. I was sorry at . not finding nuffiu in the pockets eeptin’ i a kear ticket.” The most singular i thing about the poverty-stricken pants i was that they did not belong to a Texas newspaper man, —Austin Siftings. Indigestion j Among our vegetables am those con | taming sulphur, such ns c Jons, leeks, waterm uses, radishes, mustard and ' l ‘ rt ‘ ss , etc. Their use should be shunned ; h J People of weak digestion. Tf they are not digested they produce sulpliur i etted hydrogen and bail breath and un ! comfortable distention from that gas. 1 Celery is a salutary Vegetable; so are I some roots. Carrots and parsnips, if j thoroughly cooked, will be better digest- I ed than turnips, as the latter also con j tarn much sulphur. Steaming these vegetables is far better than boiling them, and preserves the sugar in them. All fibrous materials should be avoided, such ns cabbage-stalks, green leaves with strong or coarse fibers, green beans with fibrous skins, etc. Whatever is used of vegetables must be thoroughly well cooked and reduced to a pulp with- out losing its nourishing properties. Steaming, wherever it can lie employed, is, therefore, better than boiling. Salads can only be used sparingly, made ot dainty bead lettuce, the leaves having been well picked. Cucumber can never be eaten raw, but, if stewed, it is di gestible. Of fruits the berries are the best. Strawberries eaten with sugar or raspberries are better than currants; oranges are good, eaten without tin skins ; apples or pears must be eaten sparingly, and are best stewed with sugar anil a little spice. Oranges ought to be avoided unless eaten without the pulp ; lemons, however, may do good if they are made into a lemonade with warm water and sugar. Nuts are en tirely* to be done away with. Of vege table beverages we have tea, coffee and cocoa to consider. There is no doubt that tea has a refreshing influence on the digestive organs, if used moderately and not in too strong an infusion. It is better, however, not to use it in the morning for a weak digestion, as it will stimulate too soon and rather weaken than strengthen the flow of the gastric juice at that time. One cup of ta a div is all tiiat can he flowed for the 1 dyspeptic. Coffee, when well roasted, is made strengthening in •is idfect, but it must not lie taken too strong, and, mure than this, it must not havo been boiled, but only have had the infusion taken off. 1 may here say that the roast ing of coffee leaves, ns yet, much to be desired, and that inferior coffees might be made more useful than they are if they were properly prepared. A pre paration has come under my notice which J found most beneficial with persons of weak digestion. The best brands of Java or Moelia coffee, mixed, with roast ed and ground dandelion root in propor tion of two or one of dandelion to three or four of coffee. This article, if deli cately manufactured, is a most whole some mixture and can be well recom mended. — Food and Jieallh. The Future of Our Republic. If the percentage of increase in popula- j tion shall be maintained, in 1890 we shall j have a population of more than 65.000,- j 000; in 1900 the population of the Re public Avill exceed 85,000,000. If the i rate of growth for the last ten years is j maintained, the baby born in this year j and living the allotted three score and ten years will see this Republic, if tlie Republic stands, holding a population of 315,000,000. What a Republic! What a future! How great tlie task of keeping this Republic Republican, of keeping this Democracy Democratic! How splen did and boundless the service to man kind if the world shall be taught that it is possible for so vast a Republic to exist whose fundamental idea is to exalt tlie individual, to protect tlie little, local self-governments and to dignify the doc trine of local self-government on earth. But this population is to be one not of ignorance or squalor, but of intelligence, thrift, and plenty. How measureless the Avork of such a Republic! We can not compute it by multiplying the free dom and happiness which democracy gives to the single home into tI.J many millions of homes which will make up 315,000,000 of people. In 1910, a gen erous lifetime hence, Avill it be possible for the Republic to maintain the sim plicity, the democracy, which ought to be its commanding and eA’erlastiug fea tures? Will the time have forever | passed when “ Fisher?, and chopper*, and plowmen, shall constitute a State.” A Dangerous Patent. A correspondent who lias been aston ished at the number of ladies who have been burned to death by their clothes tahing fire at an open grate or fire, says lie is experimenting on an invention by which a lady in case of accident of this kind can, by pulling a string, throw off all her clothes at once and escape de struction. It seems as though something ought to be done to protect ladies from the fireplace, but the remedy Avill event ually come through the making of dress materials fire proof. The scheme spoken of by our correspondent, if made to Avork satisfactorily, in case of fire, might sub ject her to embarrassments. The string might catch on something when she Avas out shopping, or some villainous man might find where it Avas located, and Avliile pretending to escort her across the street, he might pull tlie string. There are men mean enough to do it, in Chicago. We advise our correspondent not to Avaste any more time on his invention, as no body would wear it, after he had it per fected. — Peck's l%n. A boy’s composition on girls : “ Girls are the only folks that have their OAvn way every time.

The English language has a greater number of words than the French. There are also in English a greater number of ways to express thoughts I than in French. The expression ‘ ‘ commencement ex ercises ” is applied to the concluding exercises of a college term, from the fact that they mark tlie “commence ment” of the graduate’s independent life. The invention of glass is commonly attributed to the Phoenicians. Very an cient discoveries of glass in Egypt have somewhat shaken this attribution, and it will remain uncertain until further discoveries settle tlie question. Tub phrase “ suited to n T ” is said to be derived from the so-called T-square, an instrument used by architects and mechanical draughtsmen in draw dug plans. As the T-square is often used to test the accuracy with which lines and angles have been drawn, it is altogether j probable that the expression originated in this fact. 1 The word “ vendetta ” (vengeance) originated, it is said, in Corsica, where the practice was formerly general, and still prevails in remote parts of tlie island. The custom, one writer re marks grimly, flourishes among the Bedouins. Trace* of it are found some times among the Montenegrins, Alban ians, Druses and Circassians; and, in deed, it may be said that the custom prevailed at one time or another among every tribe and nation. Whenever a person was murdered, the practice among those holding to this custom was to avenge the death; and that duty was imposed upon the son, brother or near est kinsman, who forthwith sought pri vate vengeance upon him who shed the blood of the relative. As the adminis tration of justice became a more and more settled social institution, the cus tom disappeared, although Corsica still clings to it in its most cruel form, and on that island it plays a most important part ill a social life. The Poison of Tobacco Smoke. A series of experiments has been re cently conducted by Herr of Bremen, with the view of ascertaining the properties of nicotine and other poi sonous substances in the smoke of ci gars. He specifies as strongly poison ous constituents carbonic oxide, sulphu retted hydrogen, prussic acid, picoline bases and nicotine. The. lirst three, however, in such small proportions, and their volatility is so great that their share in the action of tobacco smoke on the system may be neglected. The pic oline bases, too, are present in compar atively small quantity,'so that the poi sonous character of the smoke may be almost exclusively attributed to the large proportion of nicotine present. Onlv a Small part of the nicotine in a cigar “is destroyed by the process of smoking, and a relatively large portion passes off Avith the smoke. The propor j tion of nicotine iu the smoke depends, of course, essentially on the kind of to bacco; but the relative amount of nico tine Avliich passes from a cigar into smoke ’ depends chiefly on how far the cigar has been smoked, as the nicotine contents of the unsmoked part of a ci gar is in inverse ratio to the size of this part, i. e., more nicotine tlie short er the part. Evidently, in a burning cigar, the slowly advancing zone of glow drives before it the distillable mat ters, so that in the yet unburnt portion a constant accumulation of these takes place. It would appear that in the case of cigars that are poor in nicotine, more of this substance relatively passes into smoke than in the case of cigars with much nicotine; also that nicotine, not withstanding its high boiling point, has remarkable volatility.—London Times. —“I should like to know somethin® about this Egyptian question, dad,’ said a young New Haven midget at tea last evening. “What are they tiring at Alexandria for —because it is t he great ?’ “Yes, my child, I suppose so.” “And who is Arabi Bev and Dervisch Pasha and Ismail ” “They are all foreign ers mv son.
