Please inform your readers which is the

some families. There are some OF them
5ich prove to be good mixers, giving
four TO six gallons CT rich milk per daV
day when fresh, and keeping up the supply
wei for several months. They thrive best
on a rich pasture in summe and should be
we'll fed in winter to keep them growing.
Herefords This breed IS larg ly being
introduced in the West. The bulls are
found o be good cross on the Texans
and other cattle on the Western ranches.
In size they are very little below the

hilists faithfully regard the clothes she wore
and the ringlets which were cut from her
head as so many precious relics. These
objects have been distributed as talismans
among the leaders of the Nihilist party.
Mr.. Thomas r. Hazard, a stalwart spir-
itualist of providence, II. L., writes to the
journal of that CITY: If my senses are to be
relied upon, not only believe. but know,
that for the lastquarter of a century have,
through the mediumship of,exceptionally
gifted human instruments, been put in
pretty close rapport with the future unseen
world, and that have enjoyed tangible and
undoubted communion with many thou
sands of returning spirits who were once
tenants of mortal bodies on earth"
A little newspaper published on the Uni
ted States flag ship Trenton, entitled the
Trenton Herald, says that Miss Clara
Louise Kellogg visited the ship while at
Villfranche, France, and for the amusement
of the officers and crew, sang number of
familiar home songs, accompanying herself
on the banjo. The account says that
"Down en- the Suwannee river" was better
than dozen Italian cavatinas, and the
way she handled the banjo and sang 1.-The

Lord Beaconsfeld was always very much
interested in young men beginning politi-
cal life, even if only in the earliest stages
of Office work. He once said in answer to
some one who observed that the work of a
particular Office was dry: Cali details are
dry; you must not be discouraged; it is the
same in every Office. The main point is to
get the first step on the ladder" He seemed
never to lose interest in those who had
served him well, and would say: ''Tell SO
and SO to come to see me, 1 like him very
much"

THE GENTLEMAN.
what He Is and what He lis Not


From the New Orleans Times
Unread and vulgar people in particular
are apt to look upon gentleman as sort
Of stylish roue, polished mon of the
world enough, but unprincipled, the
main bent of whose ambition is the nicer
mannerisms and observances of polite
society. Nothing could be wider of truth.
Measured by the Chesterfield standard
and there is no better-a gentleman is
simply what the name implies, o free
hearted, kind hammered gentleman. The
dandified fop of Charles court; the simper-
ing sycophants Madam Pompadour made
her confdents; the conceited coxcomb of
Shakespeare's time, have no name or place
in that truer embodiment of manly virtues,
the modern gentleman. The world-and
it is a asomewhat critical as well as competent
Judge Of social distinction expects
in the term, and. the character,
presume the very best qualities In
human nature. A gentleman must
be the soul of honor. He is brave, courte-
ous, sincere and humane. He hates wrong
from the purest and most natural of all
impulses, the love of right. His creed is
fair play; that is, simply justice. His ap-
proval is candid1y expressed. His disap-
proval is frank and manly protestation.
A nobleman may not always be gentleman,
but gentleman is always nobleman.
There is no place for duplicity in the
gentleman's calendar. There is but one
path for him in society, business, politics,
and it is the honorable one. He will be
found on the side Of the weak; and his sign
manual is friendship for the stranger. He
braves and deies every brutal element in
motive, bearing down upon and degrading
society, animalizing common manhood,
depicting churches, dwarfng schools, de-
moralizing humanity and every element Of
good under it.

THE New York World fires its parting
shot at Agricultural Commissioner LIE Due.
That paper thinks Gen. LIE Due is not by
nature comic person, though his scheme
of producing American tea at cost of 16
cents pound was comic performance,
and the fact that nobody wanted the tea
even at 15, while it prevented the enter
prise from being financial success, added
immensely to the success of tea culture as
a joke; but the best of his jokes, says the
World, was his proposition that his COM
missionership should be converted into a
cabinet office and his seed-bag fattennd in
to portfolio. ALI this is very funny, of
course, and would be still funnier, but for
the fact that all lprevious incumbents of the
Office held by Gen. LIE Due, were subjected
to similar jibes and sneers, and that DR..
LoriDg, his successr will be very sure to be
served in the same way.

DIR. f, DE WITT TALMAGE, sensation
al minister of Brooklyn, recently preached
sermon in which he told an extraordinarya
story, to the effect that little more than
twenty years ago "a legislative committee
in one of our states explored and exposed
the manner in which certain railway COM
pany had obtained donation of public
land. 1t was found out that thirteen of the
senators of that state received $175, 900
among them, sixty members of the legis-
lature OF that state received between $5,-
OOO and $10, 900 each, the governor of that
state received $5O,0oO, his cler6 received
30 600, the lieutenant governor received
$4,000, all the clerks of the legislature
received $4,000 each, while $50, 900 were
divided among the lobby agents. So
much time has elapsed since the events
described, that Talmage might have been
great deal more specific without danger
to himself. It is probable, however, that
he was not sure of his facts, and did moi
care half as much about facts as for some.
thing that would make sensation. He
should have named the state atleast.

they were working up the full capacity.
Henry Graft, Alderman, went into Chicago
saloon last Friday morning and drank pint of

The terrible massacres and prosecutions

The terrible massacres and prosecutions
of the Jews in Russia are due to the suspi-
cion among the ignorant peasantry that he
Jews are Nihilists. Rather large percent
age of these who have been brought to
trial by the government for participation in
Nihilist plots have been Jews; but that
there is no justification for the antiJewish
policy of the government, on the alleged
ground of Jewish sympathy with Nihilism,
is proved by the fact that the Nihilist lead
ers themselves are encouraging the out
breaks. The government is in reality re-
ssonsible. A law of Alexander 1, at the
beginning of the present century, empow-
ering governors of provinces to expel all the
Jews, long a dead letter, has been vital
lied by the pre- sent emperor. This cruel
measure, now revived, was rarely put in
force even at its origin, and evidently had
been almost forgotten
