A reception was given to Senator-elect
Garfield at the Capitol, at Columbus,
Wednesday night. Mr.. Garfield paid a
warm tribute to Senator Thurman, Of
whom he said, Ohio has had few larger
minded, broader minded men. He refer
red to the kind words spoken of him by
Senator Thurman in the State canvas,
saying that "the flowers that bloom
over the garden wall of party politics are
the sweetest and most fragrant that
bloom in the gardens of the world"
The Duke of Richmond and Gordon in
London OH the 10th of December said ::
It appears to me that in the present day
peasant proprietors are not what is want
ed by the general public. Hundreds of
years ago there were such things, but the
system is not one that commends itself
to the present generation. Peasant pro-
pretors have gone out because, as years
went on and as capital increased in this
country, the capitalists wanted better

soil than can be obtained by those who
are called peasant prOprietors.
General Miles, the famous Indian fight
er, when asked by reporter ut st. Louis
a few days ago for his opinion on the In
dian question, said:
81 think it would be economy to turn
the Indians over to the military. When
money is needed the Paymaster can pay
them, the Commissary Department can
feed them and the stores can be transpor-
ted by the Quartermaster. Until the In
dans can be civilized and can be changed
from barbarism, until they can appreciate
the force of the laws, they should be un-
der the control of the troops. When
they reach this condition of civilization
they should be dealt with by the proper
legal authorities, just as negroes or Chi
nanien are dealt with. If they commit
crimes they should be punished individu-
not be handled except by the military.
They should be held by the military until
they are domesticated, and then they
should be turned over to the laws of the
state or territory in which they are loca-
ted. Thos in Minnesota would be
amenable to the state law; those in Da-
kota to the territorial law, and so on"

The Monkeys Friend.

SAYS writer in the London World !:
Frank Buckland. the friend of fisher
men and monkeys, is, am sorry to
say. in failing health. Owing to the
dropsical nature of his complaint, he
finds walking difficult-as if, to use his
own expression. his legs were in We'll
lington boots full of water. Notwith-
standing those physical troubles, life is
full of interest to the naturalist. Mr..
auckland at home is surrounded by all
his pets, from dried gorillas to living
creatures of every sort He sits in
John Hunters chair, regardless of I'M
comfortable angles. and considers it
more delightful than the downiest of
couches without historical interest:
and the angles, too, are so convenient
for the monkeys. They can sit aloft
and watch the progress of the Fishery
Commissioners reports, and pounce
down among proof-sheets at will. MIR.
Jamrach, a retired organ monkey. is a
great favorite with his master, and
shares with him the frugal meal to
which his doctors limit him. There is
not much ceremony observed on these
occasions. for everything is turn about,
even TO the claret and water. The ex-
preston of the monkeys face, as it sits
watching an opportunity for a raid.
have only seen equaled in the children
brought to our London hospitals from
poverty-stricken homes. The face of
the starved human bsby lit up with
CLEAN of gratitude to the nurse, and
the face of the spoiled monkey, sitting
in mute admiration of his kindly
master, are alike To wrinkle.

PEOPLE who have COWS to sell take
them to Kings cattle yards on Monday
morning, and people who want to buy
cows go there to select their animals.
There is always big crowd and any
amount of chatting. Cows Of all color,
ages, shapes and sizes are tied to the
fences, and the owner will take his oath
that nothing but mortgage on his farm
could have induced him to part with his
favorite
The other Monday the sport of the
yard was COW with tail about foot
and a half long. The weather was
awful hot and the flies plenty, and she
not only worked that old stub for all it
was worth, but made it pretty lively for
insects with her hind feet.
81 see smiles and hear laughter"
said the owner as he faced the crowd,
''but this very bob tailed COW is worth
any four in the yard. She don't look
finished out with that stumpy-tail. but
here is another case wherein the inven-
tive genius of man can overcome the
lost forces of nature"
He thereupon deity affixed a small
bush TO her tail by means of a string.
and the COW sent the flies sky-high at
every rap.
''And now how did this COW lose her
tail?" continued the man. as he hung
his coat on the fence. "She didn't 90

seed in this article is generally made as
regularly as crops are rotated from year
to year. But one of our friends is very
emphatic in regard to the potato. that
no change of seed is required. He has
had one potato-that is one variety of
potato-year after year for ten years,
and they are as good as ever. In his
opinion it is not that a variety is sick of
the ground that it sometimes gives out;
but that it is diseased from ordinary
unhealthy causes. 1t is simply a
change of an unhealthy stock for a
healthy one, and not a wearing out of q
variety.
The matter has a practical impor-
lance, as people often put themselves
to great deal of trouble and expense
in order to make change in the seed.
If the suggestion made be in the line
OF true reason for the supposed bene-
fits of change, proper care in saving
healthy seed will be as good as
change. But we must be satisfied that
the suggestion is correct and that the
truth lies in the few experiments made.
There are two sides, and sometimes
several sides. to all questions of this
nature. We have personal knowledge
of trials made by farmers forty and
fifty years ago. when the varieties of
potatoes generally cultivated by our
best farmers were comparatively few
TO what they are now. and whose crops,
in using the same seed year after year.
became poorer and poorer. though
there was no apparent disease, and the
only remedy they had was change Of
seed. Sometimes it was the same
variety obtained several hundreds OF
miles away-from the State of Maine,
for instance-and the yield was double,
the potato larger and the quality bet

Pilfering OF French Servants.

An American lady died in private
hospital in Paris. She was well-to-do
in the world. possessed handsome
wardrobe and no inconsiderable amount
of jewelry. When her trunks were
forwarded TO her friends every article
of any value had disappeared. There
was not piece of jewelry of any kind
to he found, not even her watch. All
smaller articles, such as laces, hand
kerchiefs, stockings, ETC.. were miss
ing. Some hours had undoubtedly been
permitted to elapse between the time
of her Geath and that of the affixing
of the seals. aud the time had been made
good use OF. Then there was a case
that showed an audacity at pilfering al
togther uncommon, even on the part of
French servant, which took place at
one of the fashionable Partisan hotels
some time ago. An American lady,
who was in delicate health, but who
was by no means considered an invalid
either by her friends OF herself. died
suddenly from some malady of the
heart during the temporary absence of
her husband in America This lady
possessed head Of hair OF unwOnted
luxuriance and beauty, the long, thick
tresses when loosened falling almost to
the floor when she stood up, although
she was by no means short woman.
When the body was prepared for inter-
ment, "A few hours after her sudden de-
mise, every vestiee of this marvellous
hair had disappeared, and it was with
difficulty that friend of the family
who was present contrived TO secure a
lock of sufficient dimensions TO fill a
loeket as a relic for the absent hus-
band. Suspicion naturally pointed to
the favorite French maid OF the de-
ceased as the perpetrator of this auda-
cious and sacriiegious theft, but there
was no positive proof of her guilt.
There were other persons who had ac-
cess TO the room where the body lay,
and the verdict, as is usual in such
cases when occurring to Americans
abroad, was-no redress.-Pdris Cor.

BY this time everybody in the yard
was in the circle around him. and the
man wiped his eyes and said:

Changing Seed.

THERE seems to be no idea so thor
oughly believed in by experienced farm
ers than that it is a great benefit to
change seed occasionally; yet it is by
no means an indisputed fact. and we
know of some intelligent men, indeed,
some who stand among the most thor
oughly educated and experienced in the
farming business. who contend that this
supposed necessity for a change of seed
is entirely imaginary.
We confess 10 sympathy with those
who think an occasional change neces-
saryi and Yet we have so often found,
in the light of new and careful ex-
perienee, that even practices very time
honored came to be abandoned, that
we are always willing to reconsider any
opinion. no matter how strongly held

MIR. ARTHUR SULLIVAN is reported to

may be stated that the latest rumor in
the English papers is that Mr.. Sullivan

JAMES JACKSON JARvEs declares that

SIR ROBERT COLLIER has no faith in
art critics, and while he says that the
public is growing in intelligent appre-
citation of pictures, he thinks that the
writers who talk about the paintings
which are put on exhibition are far be-

lie, he says are more to be preferred,
especially in matters concerning land
scape art, than the dogmatic art critics
who write at one another.
