Startling Predictions,

Commodore NJ. T. Maury, delegate
to the National Agricultural Associa-
ton, how IN session at St. Louis, is to
deliver an address before that body up
on subject which is certainly worthy
of his great reputation as a scientific
scholar. According to the Missouri
Republican, she is convinced that it is
possible by an extended and uniform
system of observations on the weather
ana the crops, to predict with tolerable
certainty the kind of season to be ex-
pected, and thus to be able to ascertain
in advance what will be the probable
market price of any given agricultural
product. To carry out this idea it is
proposed to secure the cooperation of
the governments of both Europe and
America, interchanging the results of
meteorological observations aud crop
reports, thus ascertaining the condition
of the growing crops, as well as those
harvested. Thus the probable value of
any product for the year might be APP
proXimated with tolerable harmony"

Richness of Michigan Soil.


A man IN Detroit gave me some idea
of the richness of the soil in that ~icin-
lty. He says there wasn't any place on
earth where things grow as they do
there. He said his wife never made
bread. She always made little biscuit
the size of an egg, and she would leave
'em an hour to swell by themselves,
and they would grow into twelve pound
loaves. | thought to myself you are a
loaf er. He continued his growing
tale, and said:
''Once there was man. He went
into the woods and chopped down four
trees. He used the four stumps for
corner posts, and he built him a nice
log house on those stumps Then next
morning he found himself and family
up sixty feet in the air, with a lot of
Indians down cellar waiting to cut their
hair off, and the Indians did scalp the
whole of en-

"Sir," said he, q never prevaricate,

The gas burns low, and the night is deem

Darkness and shadows creep.
Ana the City is lost in sleep.
The type-soter stands there, gaunt and gray
With dim old eyes and a weary brain

On rafting easement and pane.

from the theatre over the way.
AT some strange old tragedy play
The old man sings, and tremble the floors
With the believing engine down below,
And the crash of the whirliug axle-bars.
And the thunders that from them grow,
Echoing to and fro.
As he fingers the types lin his desolate way),

The name Of a man just dead;

And he signs as he thinks this man SO rrav-

Lower and lower the gas-lights burn
And grow the shadows dusky and gray;
Aud the storm is hushed, and the music's swell

And finished the tragedy play
And the type-setter wipes his dim old eyes;
The types no more with his fingers move
And he smiles that while setting the naJne haIov,

One of Jim fiSk'S Passes.

The conductor of the European and
North American passenger train run
ming between Lewiston and Mattawam-
keag, asked fat, comfortable-looking
old fellow for his ticket the other night,
when the old chap waved his hama be-
nevOlently, answered "Pass," and
spread himself over two seats again.
He was quite indignant when the gen
ial conductor asked to see the pass,
and with much grumbling pulled out
of a wallet a freight receipt of the San
ford line Of steamers, endorsed:
"Please Pass this Man if he Pays his
fair If he donot Pait I Put him Of
Not good unless countersigned by
u. FIsKE, JR
On being further questioned, the
gentleman with the pass said he could
not read writing very well, but did not
doubt that his pass was good for an
unlimited time over all the railroads IN
the United States, as jim Fisk gave it
to him in Boston last summer. and he
had travelled considerable on it." He
paid his fare with not good grace,
and got off the cars swearing vengeance
on the individual who "sold him the
pass.

Fraudulent WILL.

In the year 1871, DR.. Theo. B. Tall
mage, of New York, died and, shortly
afterward, lawyer named Phillip Bur
rows, presented an instrument for
probate purporting to be the last will
and testament of DIR. Tallmage, ex-
ecuted in 1889, by which he was APP.
pointed executor, and named as legatee
IN case of the death of the Doctors in
FAINT daughter before reaching the age
of II years. The Will also contained
power to sell property in his direction.
in 1855, finding the child was likely to
attain her majority, Burrows, under the
power given him in the Will,
disposed of all the real
estate and retired with the proceeds to
this city, where he recently died. Mean
time, the daughter grew into woman
hood, and married James G. Bolton, of
this city, and in 1862 suits were com
menced in the Superior Court for the
recovery of the property, on the ground
that the will was fraudulent and void,
and that the purchases had been made
by parties in collision with Burrows.
After the lapse of ten years one of these
cases, which is made test case, has at
length reached trial before a jury,
and the jury returned verdict for the
p.a.HtlI IN ali the cases submitted.
The property involved is said to exceed
half million dollars.
