The apology is made for Commissioner
Casey that the reason he has neglected the
public grounds is because he has no money
fe spend upon them. This seems to- be a
very weak excuse for not moving the grass
and weeds, at least. The appropriation of
over ie,0 Geo seem ample TO cover such care
OF the grounds. and If IL did not there are
numbers OF poor people who would gladly
have moved them FOR the grass,

From a late report OF The Bureau OF Sta
tistic> % EVPearS tnst Tie statements in re-
gard 10 The annual consumption of opium by

General Sturgis, of the 5th cavalry, has
given Chief joseph several very hard knocks
OF late, and has displayed the qualities OF
true sOlCier. Instead Of turning back 10 the
nearest post to replenlsh the haversacE.s of
his men he has steadily pursued Joseph, and
when his ratiOns gave out dlled his camp
Kettles with mule meat. AS a steady diet
this may Lot lie very agreeable, but a SOL
dier's duties are frequently unpleasant, and
the more cheerfuiiy and philOscphically he
endures hsrdships the more of a true soldier
does he become.
