drous kind" He had been to the peni-
tentiary once. He knew how it was
himself; and therefore felt it har dship
to condemn another man to place that
he had tried and didn't like. f
While no idea of incompetency or cor
ruption is entertained so far as the court
lis concerned, still the idea prevails at
Washington that the jury was purposely
packed and witnesses were suborned to
perjury, by villains of the District ring,
to save Green, in order to keep from dis
closures that would seriously implicate
others in the safe-burglary transaction
in which the whole matter originated.
There is nice opening for an investi-
cation by Congress into this system OF
hindering the administration of public
justice within the District by means Of
rings of couspirators operating to that
end.

STOCK FARMING IN KANSAS.
Some Facts Concerning One of the Largest Land
and Stock Enterprises In this Conatry.

Probably one Of the largest and most
Interesting experiments at stock farm.
ing on mammoth scale In this country,
is that which was instituted some three
years ago In the then uninhabited region
of Kansas, by Mr.. George Grant, of Lon
don, England. Mr.. GranHs estate is
known as tho Victoria Colony, and is
situated in Ellis county, Kansas, on the
Kansas Pacific railroad, $50 miles west
Of Kansas City.
In aSTs Mr.. Grant, who was then in this
country, was induced to visit that region
with view to investing In real estate,
and after travelling over various portions
ot Kansas, finally settled at the point
named, and purchased the greater part
OF Ellis county. His first purchase gave
him an area OF $50 square miles, to which
he has since added several other pur-
chases, so that he now owns probably
the largest tract OF land ever owned 10y
any one individual III this country. The
first arrival Of settlers to the new
colony was In May, 1S73,and at that time,
with the exception of the railroad depot,
and the reception house, built by the
railroad company, under contract with
Mr.. Grant for the use Of the colony, there
was not q house within ten miles.
At the present time SO rapid has been
the growth. ana Improvement In the
wealth and material prosperity or the
colony that there is not an acre OF land
for sale within ten miles of Victoria ON
the south, and there are along the line Of
the Victoria river number OF fne lime-
stone residences. Victoria Colony diff
fers widely, and in many Important re-
spects from any other colony in the
United States. Mr.. Grant does not sell
| to any one person less than a section, or
$40 acres Of land, while some Of the resi-
dents or those about TO become SO, have
purchased as many as eight sections, or
over 5000 acres, and the most OF them
own two sections, or 1880 acres. The
settlers are, therefore, far aboye the
!enSditior of ordinary farmers, being
lmade up OF the sous Of noblemen, trades.
men, artisans, ana well-te.do farmers,
The first purchaser and settler In the
colony was Hon. Walter Maxwell, a son
of Lord Herries, an English nobleman

RETIRING FIREMEN.

There Is more benevolent bill now pending before
the Legislature than that OF retiring WORKOUT and

are many cold veterans IN the present department
who, before the paid system into existence had
done noble service, while at the time there
many who in tho present department likewise
entitled TO every consideration; but Il appears among
the members there great deal of dissatisfaction
pressed one of the bin which gives the Com.
lnissioners unlimited power. The bill provides that
the Boara Of Fire Commissioners can retire such
they consider unfit for duty on hall pay.
But at any future time they can at their own judgment
cut them on from the retired list Thus the 1remen
claim that they may be retired on pension, and in
few months after the Commissioners remove them
IL they feel disposed When the present department.
was first organized II composed principally OF
who had their time out in the old Volunteer De-
parimcnt-viz nye years. while many had served ten
and fifteen years This present paid system has been In
existence nearly eleven years. Adding this and their
previous services in the old department. goes
TO show that these have been faithful servants
the public and H. in the wise judgment Of the Commits
sioners they should be retired should be nothing
short OF pension for life, and that Board Of Fire
Commissioners the present or the future should
be vested with the power to thin them out their
