Health and Fashion.

The Science Of Health says: Not until
We deal conscicntiously with nature, as we
do with tradesmen, shall we, as individu-
ais, be entitled to rewards of merit. We
ask for load of good wood, pay the mar
ket price for it, get the worth of our
money, and have the satisfaction of
warmth from the fire it makes Suppose
the dealer kcnw we would not pay for it.
He would not be likely to give full meas
ure of the best quality. The dainty bits of
lace, jet ornaments and plumes, rosebuds
and velvets composing a hat are very be-
coming to some faces. The dressy hat has
price, it takes money to pay for it. The
little lady wishes to look stylish, pays the
price, and is satisfied and happy until the
fashion changes She desires health and
elasticity of step, buoyancy of spirit. Could
they be purchased at Stewards or of Worth,
millions of dollars would roll to the credit
Of their bank accounts. Alas, poor child
of fashion gold cannot buy for you the
dewy freshness of vigorous life The
sunshine and rain drops are gifts. Roses
in cheeks, cherries in color of lips, come
from within. The price is service, and
faithful service, too, under the most exact
ing physician, Mother Nature Her re-
wards are sure her punishments certain.
There can be no appeal to a higher court
no amendments to her divinely appointed
constitution" VIII you enter willing
student Are you willing to measure your
life by her rule and compass and square,?
"No" Then there is little hope for you.

The most inveterate enemies of the Re
publican party are compelled to admit that
Republican ascendancy in this State has
borne good fruit, and has, on the whole,
profted the people. Whatever else may
be raked up to its apparent discredit, and
made to serve dishonest political ends, the
immense debt reduction accomplished dur
ing the term of Republican rule stands like
rock in the path of detractors and dema-
gogues. 1t is one of the things which no
amount of sorcery with figures can obscure,
and it is the work of the Republican party.

and a Forgery.

ana Forgery.
BALTIMORE, June 20-In the Orphans
Court yesterday, in the case of Paul
SchOepee on a petition to revoke the pro
bate Of will of Miss Maria VI. Steipeeke;
deceased, and letters testamentary granted
Hereunder, upon the ground of an alleged
marriage at Carlisle, Pa, between the teS-
tatrix and Schoepe, emitting him to her en-
tire estate. Judge Ingles delivered the
opinion Of the court that the petition had fall
ed to prove the marriage alleged, and that
the documents produced by him to establish
it were forged. After the death of Miss
Steinecke, in January, 1869, Paul Schoeppe
was indicted, tried and convicted on y
charge Of causing her death by prussic acid
at Carlisle Pa. Afterward, under a special
act Of the Pennsylvania Legislature, he was
granted a new trial, which resulted in his
acquittal. In October, 1872, Schoeppe
fled his petition in the Orphans Court in
this city. In March of last year the caso
was taken up and, after trial extending
over three weeks, in which a large number
Of witnesses from Baltimore and elsewhere
were examined was submitted In the
course Of the trial a certified record of the
Police Court of Berlin was produced show
ing that Schoeppe had been convicted in a
Berlin Germany court Of the three crimes
of larceny, forgery and extortion. Schoeppe
IS now serving a term in the Illinois State
Prison at Joliet, having been convicted in

AGRICULTURAL DISCUSSION.
Meeting Of state Hoard Of AgricuI-
ture, Manufactures and Mining, at
Mtddlebury,

The State Board of Agriculture, Manu-
features and Mining, met at Middlebury
on Thursday afternoon last, and l.. l..
Wright of Cornwall was chosen chairman.
c. Horace Hubbard of Springfield, a
member of the Board, made an opening adj
dress, intellIgently and ably explaining the
objects and aims of the Board.
Mr. Cyrus G. Prindle of Charlotte, then
read paper entitled "Some Experiments
in Hybridization of Cereals" This paper
was very. interesting one, 1t gave a
large number of experiments and results
not only by himself, but Others. The
merits of selection as compared with cross
ing by Hybridizaton was discussed with
the bility only acquired by much research
and extensive experience. Mr.. Prindle
gave very interesting account of his own
experiments, and exhibited heads of wheat
to show the kinds of wheat he had expert
mented with, and heads of the kinds that
had been produced as result of the Hy-
bridlzation. The kinds used were the
Black Sea and the Gold Drop varieties.
The crossing was commenced in 1870, and
after planting two years, by bringing in
the assistance of selection, he had been
able to present a few kinds that were ex-
hibited that promised TO be decided i'm
provements upon the parent varieties, re-
tanning the hardness of the Black Sea
while the quality was much better, OF
more like the Gold Drop.
Prof. Seeley asked Mr.. Prindle if hi
thought the character of the kinds saved
and exhibited, had become fixed and re
liable.
Mr. Prindle replied that he thought tina
on his own farm and soil they would, bl
If they were removed to another State, ant
raised on different soil, they might vary
more especially If they should be removed
soon or before their characters had becom
more permanently fixed at home.
Mr.. Prindle, from drawings he had pre-
pared, explained the process of hibridizinl
In very instructive and entertaining man
ner. In answer to questions Mr.. Prindl
stated that the time to fix the character o
the cereals was much longer than was re
quired to fix the character, and bring I

The Presidents message does seem TO
meet with very good reception in Lousi-
ina. 1t is said that it does not greatly
comfort the Kellogg party or the army as
it ia only stream t apologetical special
pleading So, al :, are the conservatives
dissatisfied with il, and they call attention
$50 some very grave errors of fact in the
document. For example, the President
cites the killing of Judge Crawford and
District Attorney i .rrs, in north Louisi-
ana, in October, 1313 asspecimcns of po-
litical murders. 1t is very well known that
they were assassinated by band of out
laws, headed by convict murderer, who
had escaped, and that politics had nothing
to do with it. Judge Crawford was unu-
sually respected as an upright man and
Harris was an ultra democrat, the intimate
personal and political friend of Governor
McEnery, and southern man by birth and
principle. He raised the first company in
that district for the Confederate army,
served through the war, and was always a
consistent and staunch opponent of there
publican state government of Louisiana.
The truth is that he and Judge Crawford
were iercely prosecuting gang of criml-
nails, who murdered them for revenge.
There was absolutely no politics in the
case" So it is ever with all compromise
or evasive measures. Will the President
now promptly, or even tardily, d!savow
Sheridan's or de Trobriand's acts by recall
ing them; or will he continue to tacitly APP
prove by continuing them in their places
and continuing to belive that ''all acts Of
theirs s'have been aud will be judiclous.
Why not stake the bull by the horns ant
either approve Or disapprove? Two wrong
can never make a right, any more thai

dent recommend Senator Edmunds medi

of the state rectify the evil"-as the Sena
tor says they will-"and republican gov
ernment will go on"

MOIkl, WATER.

"Water, water, for Gods sake, water !"
How many times, fellow citizens, were
your ears greeted with these words late
Thursday night and early Friday morning?
How many times were our gallant firemen
almost ready to shrink back appalled, at the
idea conveyed by these words How
many of you heard this, or similar language
and, as you comprehended its dread i'm
port, counted your property as OF little
worth, so liable was it to become victim
of that fell destroyer fire. We have all
heard these words before. We all know
their awful significance. But we only re-
member them when stately buildings, stocks
of goods, and individual possessions are
being laid low, when the wealth of the vii
lage is being turned to ashes. The morrow
comes. Daylight brings fanced security.
Then we forget that which has so terribly
impressed us in the hour of danger. Then
the question of more water is weighed
against increased taxes, and the fear of
taxes is triumphant, the needed supply of
water is deferred to more convenient sea-
son. Is it not so Has not the demand
for more water been constantly reiterated
in your ears year after year? Can you
turn to report of your chief engineers
without finding an urgent appeal for more
water ? Do they not tell you, year after
year. that experience has demonstrated
that in certain localities the ample appara-
tus of the fire department would be prac-
tically vauelcss for any aid it could render
in cxtingaishing fire for the want of water?
Do they not tell you, IL fires should occur
upon any of our principal streets, with an
exception or two, at any distance from the
corners of the main thoroughfares almost the
entire hose of the department would be re-
auircd TO draw water so that one engine
alone, if any, could play directly on the
burning building? Do you not know
moreover, that these are facts, facts will
which YOU have been long familiar, facts
which ought not to exist, TACT
which are standing menace II

so far as water can save them? Look a
the United States court house. the count
court house, the Congregational, Baptist
and Catholic churches. DO they not invt

buildings, situated on Court aud Cente
streets, should be fired, accidentally or b
design, what is your fire department
worth Where would your firemen sta
ton their engines, whence draw thel
water, how reach the burning buildings
You know, as well as we, that your depar

Is it hardly the right thing for trustee
of public institution, one whose func-
lions will he the same wherever the build
ing may be, to appear before legislative
committee as the attorney OF a particular
locality? AS trustee, it may be his right

to a proper locality. AS an officer of the
state has he the right to use that official
influence when he acts as an attorney? 1t
