The Prosperity of Kansas.

Kansas city lMO,l Times,
The harvest is over and the granaries
in Kansas are filled with a yield of wheat
unexcelled in quantity and quality ever
known before in the history of the state.
In 1866, with less acreage, the yield
of this year was approached, and in 1873
it was approXimated, but as matter
of fact, such a crop of wheat never filled
the granaries rs has just been harvested
in Kansas.
From all parts of the state, without
exception, the harvest has been bounti-
full and the crop has been secured
without the least impairment as to
quality. The average yield has been
over twenty and one-half bushels per
acre, and in exceptional cases the yield
has attained the prodigious amount of
forty bushels to the acre. full, strong
gained wheat. 1t is estimated that the
Weld will exceed 32,000,000 bushels.
With the railroad facilities now pos
sessed by Kansas, MARKET is accessible
for every bushel of the surplus, that is
not used at home, and the farmers can
well rejoice over ihe expectation of being
enriched by not less than S25, 100000
from their wheat crop alone.
Besides this actually, the wheat crop
harvested, threshed and ready for
transportation to market, the promise
of the greatest corn crop ever known in
the state can be counted upon as a
certainty. The season is auspicious,
the crop has attained such a growth
that il can scarcely be impaired. Five
or six feet high, tasseling sin some
portions of the state, sturdy, strong and
healthy in all parts of the tate, it is
estimated that the crop will yield 175,-
600, 900 of bushels. This foreshadows
fat hogs, fat cattle and other sources of
wealth to Kansas farmers besides the
sale of the product itself,
Added to these providential signs of
prosperity, the unimproved lands in
the state are being settled up by sturdy
and experienced immigrants, farmers
from Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, the New
states, and not few persons
from the south, who not only come
equipped with experienced to their new
homes, but have added to it the means
to stock and put their lands in order to
yield a return for theirlabor.

Topics " the Time, In July Century,
Mr.. Stewart was a gifted shop-kecp-
cr, whose rare talent in single line
gave him both fame and wealth, But
he knew as little of charity as he cared
for it; and when he came, at the close
of his life, to attempt something in that
direction, he blundered with facility
and self-conlidence which ought to be
enduringly instructive 1t had been
urged upon him that he owed some
thing TO the working-girl who had
done so much to build up his fortune;
and so, tardily, and ignorantly, he set
about scheme in their behalf. He
built huge structure, capable of
housing II thousand people. Every
feature Of this structure, in view of the
purpose for which it was designed,
was a glaring incongruity-and then,
when he had completed it, he condo
scended to ask the counsel of experts
as to carrying his scheme into practical
execution. He was informed by those
whose counsel he ought long before to
have sought that the very character of
HIS DuIulllS plunlulltu u liblH bcluH
useful. He was shown that to assem-
BILE one thousand young women under
noe roofin n working-woman's house,
was TO necesstate one of two things;
either police so vigilant and intrusive
as to be TO any decent girl intolcrable:
or else laXity so provocative of evil as
almost to guarantee it. He was shown
that he ought to have built a series of
small houses, each with matron of its
own and each TO contain n dozen girls
at most, where the surveillance could
have been constant without having
been obtrusive, and where something
like domesticity would have made a
home in name home in fact. But
Mr.. Stewart believed supremely in Mr..
Stewart. Successful men generally be-
lieve in themselves. He showed this in
his architecture, which was hideous,
where it might as easily have been
graceful and pleasing. He showed it
in his charitable plans to which he gave
but little thought, and in which he
chose to be sufficient to himself And
so his great wealth has resulted in no
service to his townspeople and in Scan
ty honor to his memory.
1t is a story which may proiitably be
read by other rich men.

Manchester Mirror.
The feet of Josiah West, who met
with that terrible accident on the rail
road a few days ago, were yesterday
taken by his wife to Fremont, N. H.,
for burial When the unfortunate man
gained consciousness at the hospital
the morning following the loss of his
limbs he complained that his toes panied
him great deal, that they seemed
badly cramped, and he requested that
some one move them for him. At that
time the feet were tied in bag, and the
hospital people did not know where they
were to be found. 1t seems simply in
credible that the position or condition
of a severed member of q persons body
should affect in the least the sensibilities
of the owner; but suffice it to say that
the undertaken with whom the writer
conversed ailirms that he personally
knows Of numerous cases where persons
who have lost q limb declare they felt
pain from an awkward position which
the member was in.
He cited aninstance of man who lost
an arm in this city last fall. After being
amputated, twas sent to the undertake
er's for burial. 1t was placed in box,
the back of the hand being down, re-
naming in this position for several
hours. The owner ofthe severed mem
Der, during that time, experienced pain
in the arm, which grew SO unbearable
that at last he asked friend to go to
the undertaker's and see about the limb.
This was at 5:45 in the afternoon. The
friend was busy, and did not start off
for half an hour, and during that time
the pain had ceased, and the wounded
man said he need not go. He went,
however, and found that the undertaken
had just finished caring for the arm;
that it had been placed in an easy and
natural position in the box. The time
when the arm was changed from the
awkward position to the latter conceded
exactly with the time when the owner
had felt the pain leave him. When the
friend reported to the unfortunate man,
he (the latter )said he knew just how
the arm was placed, that he could feel
its position, and correctly described the
same. ....
Another case cited by the undertaken
was about man who lost an arm above
the elbow. The member was given to
the undertaken and buried. The man
subsequently went to Lawrence to live.
About year after the accident he paid
the undertaken visit, and told him his
arm for long time had panied him a
great deal; that the fingers seemed
cramped, and that he wanted to see the
buriedmember. Accordingly, twas dug
up and examined, and, strange TO say,
found to have the fingers tightly turned
up toward the palm; as the man had
said they felt to him. The fingers were
Strengthened and the arm consigned
again to the ground, and no more troub-
le was experienced from it.

Making Gold.

1
The odd thing is that the alchemists
were probably right in principle, even
in their widest dreams. Every fresh
advance in chemical science encour-
ages the belief that the metals, in their
various classes, are really identical as
to ultimate substance-indecd, possibly
all of them together, with, it may be,
the other elements, blend into some
such common matter as the scarcely
imaginary hydrogcnium, OF which
hydrogen is the vapOr. DR.. Norman
Lockyer' researches with the spectrO-
scope tend to confirm this unity of ma
terial; and if ii exists Paracelsus was
right, and gold is merely an allotropic
form of other substances. In saving
this, however, we hasten to rcassure
the stock exchange by adding that
theory would bring chemists none the
nearer to practice in regard of manu-
featuring gold by the ton. The stu
dent OF science can make palladium or
platinum combine almost miraculously
with hydrogen, and melt goldin selcnic
acid; but he knows little of that subtle
and unapproachable chemistry by
which the earth's primeval heat fused
and formed, under pressurcs and con-
ditions inimitable by us, her gold and
iron, her salts and crystals. Man must
dig for nuggets and dust still, or work
for TIE shining stuff with hand or head
The worst that could happen TO shake
the great idol on his metallic throne
would be-which is certainly geologic
ally possiblc-thc sudden discovery of
a mother-nuggct OF gold, u monstrous
central deposit in the cavcrnous base
of some Australian or California reef
furnishing, say, half n million tons of
specie. That would shake the markets
and send silver up, but Spectators
need not fear science nor the modern
alchcmists.
Meanwhile, if we have not inherited
from the ancient Archimagcs the uni
yersal solvent or the clixcr of life, at
least they gave us chemistry. 1t was
in cropping along that dark fantastic
road of wild desires that Roger Bacon
discovered gunpowdcr, Gcbir nitric
and hydrochloric acid, Valentine, the
precipitation Of iron, and Paracclsus
his grand doctrine of the unity of Wis
ible matter. Thus does nature teach
her children. With the childish allure
ments of alchemy she led them toward
chemical truths; with the supcrsttions
of aStrology she seduced them into the
sublimitics of astronomy. Gold also
the embodiment Of wealth--is in like
manner her ge-cart, as it were, or nur-
scry plaything for humanity.

The song of the mosquito is again
heard in the land, and there comes a
great wall from the river sides and
ocean beaches of Delaware and New
Jersey, cry to heaven against the
invading myriads of pestiferous and
misunderstanding insects, Down in
Delaware and the Eastern Shon the
inhabitants have lighted their great
fires and filled the whole country with
smoke in n desperate attempt to drive
back the countless hordes. In some
portions of New Jersey, where the mos
quitoes have been terrible plague in
the past, the experiment of growing
the castor bean plant has been found TO
produce gratifying results. 1t was
known that the castor-oil plant is fatal
to flies, and that it can be grown sue
cessfully in New Jersey. As it drove
away the flies, ii was argued that it
would prove as deadly foe to the
smaller insect with the attenuatcd pro-
boscis and the most siren song of all
the insect tribe. Where the experiment
has been made the mosquito has skip
ped for more pleasant pastures and less
fatal fields. In view of this fact there
has been a great boom in castor-bean
planting. 1t is believed that at last the
most relentless enemy to the seaside So
journer's peace can be met with an en-
gine of destruction which will guaran-
tee to human existence on the oceans
brink charm it has never known be-
fore. One enterprising hotel-keeper at
Atlantic City has already made prepa
rations to set out his castor-bean
shed
