How COFFEE CANE TO Be UsED.-The
manner in which coffee came to be used
as a common beverage, is somewh at
singular. At the time when Colum-
bus discovered America, it had never
been known or used. 1t only grew in
Arabia aud upper Ethiopia. The dis
covery Of its use as a beverage is ascrib-
ed to the superior Of a monastery in
Arabia, who, desirous Of preventing the
monks from sleeping at their nocturnal
services, made them drink the infusion
of coffee, upon the report of shephards
who observed that their focks were
more lively after browsing on the fruit
of that plant. It's reputation spread
through the adjacent countries, and in
about two hundred years it reached
Paris. A single plant brought there in
I7l4 become the parent tock of all the
French coffee plantations in the West
Indies. The Dutch introdced it into
Java and the East Indies, and the
French and Spanish all over South
America and the West Indies. The
extent of the consumption can now
hardly be realized. The United States
alone annually consume it at the cost,
on the landing, Of from fifteen to SIX
teen mil lions of dollars.

How THE 'fNEEDLE-GUS" WAS MADE.
Tho Prussian Dreysse, just dead, thus
invented the famous needlegun while
working in Paris 1t sometimes happen
ed that quantities of percussion caps were
sent back to him, having bean spoiled by
moisture. In order to prevent this,
Dreysse conceived the idea OF protecting
them against dampness by covering them
with thin film Of paper. The result
proved to be the very opposite. for the pa
per attracted moisture, and very larg
order, which had been constructed in this
way, was sent back to him, as they were
entirely spoiled and unfit for use. This
was a great loss to the firm, as copper WAS
very dear at that time. In order to obtain
the copper Of the caps for further manu-
featuring purposes, Dreysse decided to re-
move the Eliminating composition. In
order to effect this with as little loss OF
time as possible, he wanted 10 do it by ex-
plOsion. After various unsatisfactory at
tempts, the idea occurred to him of accom-
piishing it by means Of n pin or needle
constructed for that purpose. This exper-
iment proved TO be eatirely successful, and
Ike lightning the idea struck Sim Of using
the needle altogether for exploding the
cartridge. No less quickly q second idea
dawned on his mind-that of removing
the entire explosive material into the cart
ridge, to save the expensive copper used
heretofore for caps. This was the first i'm
portant step in the construction Of the
Prussian needle gun. Dreysse at once set
to work, and in the beginning Of 1929 the
first needle-gun was made.

A HAPPY STATE.-Iows is clear ef
debt. Alone, of all the States, she
does not owe a dollar. This Is not the
result of meanness or dishonesty. The
people of Iowa did not shirk from their
duty during the war. They paid their
full share Of the public expenses, and
sent their quota Of men to the field;
and there were no better men in the
armies of the Union. The gallantry Of
Iowa's soldiers was conspicuous in every
battle, as their endurance and vigor
were in every march. This happy con-
dition of freedom from debt IS due to
the wise and economical administra-
ton which the people of Iowa have in
sisted on, and which their State officers
have been able to give hem. 1t is, IN
deed, an enviable situation, which
other States, groaning under debt and
taxation, may look at with an admiring
eve. Nor States only; individuals can
also appreciate the luxury of owing
nobody a cent. IL is easy to attain
The only requisite is to obey that gol-
den rule, which teaches to live within
your earnings. Let US all try it.

HIRAM ULYSSES GRANT.-Colonel Ba-
deau, in his life of General Grant, says:
''Born on the 9th of April, 1922, at
Point Pleasant, Ohio, Hiram Ulysses
Grant entered the military academy at
West Point in his seventeenth year,
where he received, through the error
of the Congressmen which nominated
him, the name of Ulysses Simpson
Grant. The young cadet in vain tried
to get his baptismal initials restored,
but the ominous u. So could not be
shaken of, as if there was an irreEersi-
bic destiny about even SO small q mat
ter as this" His mothers maiden
name was Simpson, which led 70 I1ie
error. He wrote to the War Deprt-
ment. but his letter remained unsns-
wered at his graduation. his COM
mission was issued to o. S. Grant, and
Unconditional Surrender, Uncle Sam,
United States Grant he has remained.

time until late, and that he did not think
the Senate would act so soon, and he ask
ed, "Did not General Sherman call on
you on Monday ?"
l do not know what passed between the
President and General Grant on Saturday,
except as I learned it from the converse
ton between them at the Cabinet meeting
on Tuesday, and the foregoing is substan- :
TALLY what then occurred. The precise
words used on the occasion are not, OF

they were spoken, but the ideas expressed

ton, and particularly the lette- Of the
President to General Grant dated jan
uary 81, 1868. The following extract
from your letter of the 3lst of January
to General Grant, is according to my
recollection of the conversation that
took place between the President and
General Grant at the Cabinet meeting
on the l4th of January last: "ln the
presence of the Cabinet the President
asked General Grant whether, in the
conversation which took place after his
appointment of Secretary Of War ad IN
tsriHa, he did not agree either to remain
at the head of the War Department
and abide any Judicial proceedings that
might follow the non-concurrence of
the Senate in Mr.. Stanton's suspension,
or, should he wish not 10 become in
volved in such controversy, to put the
President in the same position with re-
spect to the office as he occupied pre-
vious to General Grants appointment,
by returning it to the President in time
to anticipate such action by the Senate.
This, Gen. Grant admitted. The Presi-
dent then asked General Grant if, at
the conference, on the preceding Sat
urday, he had not, to avoid misunder-
standing, requested Gen. Grant to state
what he intended to do and, further,
if, in reply to that inquiry, he General
Grant) had not referred to their former
conversations, and saying that from
them the President understood his
position, and that his General GranPs)
action would be consistent with the un-
derstanding which had been reached.
To these questions General Grant re-
piled in the affirmative. The Presi-
dent asked General Grant if, at the
conclusion of their interview on Satur-
day, it was not the understanding that
they were to have another conference
on Monday, before final .aetien by the
Senate in the case Of Mr.. Stanton.
General Grant replied that such was
the understanding, but that he did not
suppose the Senate would act so soon !;
that, on Monday, he had been engaged
in a conference with General Sher man
and was occupied with many little mat
ters, and asked if General Sherman had
not called on that dsy.ys-l5- o. s1sr.ssC

request contained in the Presidents

ELooUENT ExTRAcF.-The following
is from the concluding chapter
of the official report of Prof. 6. w.
Hoss, superintendent of Public IN
struction, for the State Of Indiana;
''These schools are daily training not
only in knowledge, but in virtue, IN
truth, and in duty, two hundred and
ffty-fve thousand children Of Indiana.
And these children, though 'tumbling
their spelling-books and coming"
their multiplication tables in 1867, will,
in 1896, be builders Of the temple Of
liberty, laying deeper and stronger its
dome. Yes, every house that gladdens
q vale or crowns hill top in our State,
or elsewhere in this broad land, IS
bulwark OF freedom. with guns shotted,
charged and trained on the lines of the
enemies of law and order and OF good
government. Hence support the
schools and you support the govern
ment; increase the schools and you in
crease the advocates and defenders Of
freedom; foster that public virtue and
that public intelligence which are to
become the golden setting for the gem
Of liberty thst is to blaze on the brow
of the republic forever"
