The Growing Crops.

The New York Times has reports
relative to the growing crops from 81
States and Territories, and says the
information is from trustworthy sources.
The small grains, despite bad spring
weather, promise we'll. Winter wheat
will give an increased yield in nearly
every State except Indiana, Ohio, and
New York. The last named only Will
produce much less than the average.
Spring wheat is much more fattering in
it's promise. In the great grain States
west of the Mississippi the increase is
especially marked, in some cases as
much as so per cent. In some Of the
old grain States, other grains are re-
placing wheat-barley, oats, and rye
especially. In all these large increase
in acreage is reported and promise of
large crop. Insects and rust are re-
ported in some places, but only in Ten
nessee is much alarm felt. Corn shows
a very large increase in nearly every
State where it is cultivated at all. In
the North it shares to some extent in
the displacement of winter wheat, and
in the South it is replacing cotton to
some extent. Emigration and the push
ing of railroad construction are promi-
nent factors in the increase of the grain
fields.

The End of the Beginning.

dicated ID the following extract from an
exchange:
AS the boy begins, SO the man will
end. The lad who speaks with affecta-
ton, and minces foreign tongues that he
does not understand at school, will be a
weak chrome in character all his life /;
the boy who cheats his teachers into
thinking him devout ut chapel will be
the man who will make religion q trade
and bring Christianity into contempt
and the boy who wins the highest aver
age by stealing his examination papers
will figure some day as tricky poll
tician.
The lad who, whether rich OF poor,
dull or clever, looks you straight in the
eyes and keeps his answer inside of the
truth, already counts friends who will
last all his life, and holds a capital
which will bring him in q surer interest
than money.
Then get to the bottom OF things.
You see how it is already to that. 1t

Your brilliant, happy-go-lucky, hit

An Eviction Law.

The general moving on May 1st
brought anew into a strong light the
hardships of the two-hour dispossess
law, the law which empowers Judges
of the Marine and Civil District courts
to order the ejectment of tenants two
hours after notice of suit to disposess
has been served. This law bears most
heavily on the great body of citizens
who, working for small wages, must
live in tenements. Eviction at the point
of the bayonet of the constabulary in
Ireland is not more cruel than summary
eiectment into the streets of New York
at the hands of marshals. The landlord
has the right without previous notice, un-
der the two-hour law, to begin suit to
dispossess a tenant. Often a tenant who
goes out to his work in the morning,
leaving his wife and children in fancied
security in his home, returns to find his
family and furniture in the street. This
law was passed for the benefit of the
hardest class of landlords, and it is safe
to say that nearly every Judge who is
called upon to enforce it would gladly
see it repealed. Indeed, number OF
these Judges put themselves on record,
few days ago, as being in favor of the
repeal of law which works hardships
to all save set of grinding landlords

The Suns Fuel.

What keeps the majestic bali hot and
bright? This has greatly engaged ply
sicists and astronomers, and various
have been their theories. IT the sun
shone only by mere combustion of its
own materials, the calculation is that
is fire would not last five thousand
years. 1t is very kind of DIR. Siemens
to come forward with an entirely new
theory, which holds out the hope that
the men of science are all wrong with
their dismal foreboding, and that the
creation is not schemed on the poor
footing of German stove or suburban
gas company. The learned ironmaster
and physicist believes that the sun
may very well go on Illuminating and
our world and the family of
sister planets for an indefinite, if not
infinite, time. He supposes interstella
space to be filled with an extremely at
tenuated hydrogen, and interplanetary
space with denser gas, albeit more
rarefed than the atmosphere drawn
round each world. The sun, he thinks,
whirling on its axis, draws into IFS poles
the thin hydrogen, hydrocarbon, and
oxygen of our sphere, and these, being
kindled, are projected outward at his
equator into space. The accepted view
is that the heat and light there devel-
oped and radiated perish, as far as we
are concerned, except for the small por-
ton arrested by each solar satellite:
I,,E n~ hot
and light do their chief work in decom-
posing the carbonic oxide and watery
vapor which were produced by the
kindling at the solar poles, so that the
sun itself perpetually renews its own
supplies, and restores by its energy the
waste matter which has fed that energy.
The theory is much too technical and
complicated to be here discussed, and
we should offer bad compliment to its
ingenious author even to attempt such
a task. DIR. Siemens. however, has had
great experience with the phenomena
of radiated heat, and his applications of
the new view to the nature of the 70
diacal light and of comets is particular
ly striking. OF course it is startling to
hear of something in our own system
which closely resembles perpetual mo-
ton; and those who maintain that
everything comes to an end, and that all
mechanical energy must be gradually
degraded and metamorphosed, will be
slow to receive the new suggestion

Improved Printing Plates.

Experiments have been made, both
here and in Europe, with celluloid as a
material for types, and the material has
been found to have some advantages
over type-metal and wood. Tt takes
clear and sharp impressions under the
influence of heat and pressure, and
will keep its shape under the hardest
usage. The celluloid is used in the form
of thin sheets or plates, and is intended
to be backed by wood. In nature
printing, as in copying leaves, MOSES,
laces, and all kinds of raised fabrics,
the leaf or fabric is laid on the sheet of
celluloid and submitted to heat under
considerable pressure. The material
will be pressed into the celluloid, and
when finished the plate will exhibit the
minutest veining or threads of the fabric
or leaf. By cutting away the edges of
the plate, the leaf may be brought out
in relief and used as stereotype plate.
These celluloid plates have so far been
applied to the manufacture of large
type only, such as are now made of
wood, and to the making of small plates
containing short notices or advertise
ments for newspapers. The advantages
of the celluIoid types and plates con-
sist in their Hghtness, which saves stor-
age and postage, and in their durability
and cheapness. The types resist the
action of acids and do not affect the
colors of the ink used on them. This
makes it possible to use the same type
for many colors, which is great advan-
tage in printing offices where wood type
is used. Century for May.

Political Terms.

PPE-LAYING.-This term originated
from an accusation brought against
prominent members of the whig party
of New York of being engaged in a
gigantic scheme to bring voters thither
from Philadelphia, who, it was said, to
better conceal the plan, were designated
as rine-layers the work of laying down
pipe for the Croton water being then in
progress.
LoG-RonLING. The term comes from
the practice of the men of three or four
different camps of lum bermen in Maine
uniting to help each other to roll their
logs to the river, this being the most
difficult part of their work. OF late
years it has been applied to politicians
who unite together for the purpose of
carrying some measure beneficial to
themselves through State Legislatures
or the National Congress.
OLD FoGIEs.--This word is said to
be derived from peculiar body of men,
who at the end of the last
century existed in Edinburgh Castle
and were called fogies. They were old
men, dressed in red coats with apple
green facings and cooked hats, and were
sort of invalid company, who per-
formed various trivial duties. Others
derive this word from the Swedish,
meaning bailiff. Others still derive
it from folk, as lassie is derived from
lass.

Rising ROasts in Chicago.

=" Why is it that Deef cattle are so
scarce in this market ?" said a reporter
for the Chicago Inter Ocean to O well
known packer the ether day.
"Ihe fact is an undeniable one, and
I don t think the reason is very hard to
find. But first, as to the fact. Do you
know I am now killing little else but
sheep at my establishment, and the
same is true of my neighbors. The
cattle are not to be had, and 1t really
seems that mutton chops must be sup
plying nine-tenths G. the breakfast
tables of this city. There is big boom
also in pork killing for this season of
the year, the figures being much greater
than a year ago."
81 guess no one who has to foot the
butchers bill viii GU RIA the increased
price of beef for soneS9es1lse cr- other.
True enough. Steaks are selling ct
Is cents pound that awhile ago were
dear enough at II, and all other cuts of
beef show like advance. I hear that
the restaurants are likely to go up still
another notch on account of the rise. !"
"Well, what is the explanation ?"
''Tt lies, in part, just in these higher
prices. Once start the price of beef up
no matter how-and people will buy
mutton and pork, chickens, eggs, and
what not, waiting Or drop to the old
figures. The effect is the reverse of that
intended, for as the demand for beef is
now really lessened there takes place
an actual falling off in the supply, and
this means a still further advance in
butchers bills. And SO it goes; what
was started perhaps by accident-or one
of those unaccountsble furries in the
market-continuing to roll along by it's
own momentum.
"But how did the ball start roll
ing?"
SIN my opinion, simply through a
Bull combination on Change, with no
reason for the thing IN any real scarcity
of cattle the country over. The supply
of cattle in Texas and on the plains, as
we'll as nearer home, I believe is as great
as ever, and the scarcity in Chicago is
simply due to the diminished demand,
owing to the high prices. Shippers,
seeing how the matter stands, prefer to
ship to the East, and even Europe, on
firm if lower market, rather than to
glut the sluggish market here, until the
and great tumble in prices
takes place. For my part, I believe the
tumble is not far off,

A Hermit.


Cincinnati has a strange hermit IN
Edward Holroyd. He was once part
ner in large and successful dry goods
house, and at that time was public
spirited, jovial, and widely known.
Twenty years ago he retired suddenly
from business, secluded himself in a
very handsome suburban residence, and
has never since been off the premises.
For months no human being sees him,
his orders to the family who live in the
house being sent out from his room in
writing, and his food being passed in
through wicket. The building is 60
ing to ruin through neglect, and the
grounds are untended, but neither
through stinginess nor lack of means,
as his property has appreciated to $780,
900 in value, and he frequently gives
away money in charity. He takes the
daily newspapers, and seems to keep in
formed as to what is going on in the
world, but will have nothing to do with
it, and lately refused to see one of his
former business partners. Many of his
old associates believed he was dead, SO
completely had he dropped out of
notice, when a description in the En-
quirer of his manner OF existence called
their attention to him. He is now so.
The cause of his seclusion was his wife,
with whom he quarreled, and who OBJ
tanned a divorce, compelling him to
provide for her separate maintenance.
This soured him, and he vowed to be
done with human beings.

The Mysteries Of Law.

II there is one thing that is more beau
tiful than another it is the law. Lest
there may be some who will dispute this
| proposition, let us establish it by recit
ing o case 10 point. A New York bust
| ness association of moneyed men, desir-
ing to close up the concern and divide
the assets Of some $130.OOO, and being
unable to do so without official sane
ton, some time ago went into court in
a friendly suit, in order to settle the
business with neatness and dispatch.
One side was to bring the suit, and the
other was to make only feebl5 show
of combating it, and all was to be
lovely and serene The suit settled, one
of the lawyers sent in bill for 1924, 900
for services. The associates demurred,
and a referee was appointed, who cut
down the amount to $4,000, but sent
in big bill himself, as also did lot of
lawyers, for attending the reference.
Then other claims came in, and other
references were appointed, and then the
purchaser Of the soclety's property,
alleging flaw in the title, refused to
pay up and had to be sued, and this
case will probably go through two
courts before it is settled. The lawyers
and court fees thus FAR are about $780,
600, and nobody pretends to see the end.
By this incident the truth of the propo-
sition made in the first sentence of this
paragraph is triumphantly vindicated.

An Innocent Man Imprisoned.

The Des Moines Uowa) Leader says:
Gov. Sherman s profoundest sympathies
are excited for the unfortunate Red Oak
farmer, Mr.. George Bennett. who was
under mistaken identify, torn from his
home and family about year ago and,
after hasty trial, incarcerated in the
Fort Madison Penitentiary an innocent
man. He was impersonated by cum
ming rascal who sold lot of imaginary
grain to Red Oak grain dealer and fed
with the money. Bennett was arrested,
and, although unconscious of the deed
and strongly protesting his entire in
nocence, he was hurled into prison and
confined one year. The real culprit
has been found and Bennett has been
released. Under the law he cannot re-
cover damages, but the Governor means
to see to it that proper atonement is
made by the State. He intends to ad-
wise the next Legislature to make an
appropriation of $40 per day for every
day that Bennett was ID the penitentiary,
and that he be presented with a parch-
ment upon which shall be inscribed the
entire facts of the case, generating
himself and family.

Righteous Use of Wealth.

1t is said, whether truly or no cannot
be exactly verified, that women who
have fallen into habits of intemperance
never reform, The weakness of will,
the absence of resolution which marks
the sex as rule, prevents that stern
self-mastery which is necessary for
those who would go up the steep path
of reformation--the difficult Scala Santa
of intemperance following on drunken
| ness. A few men can be found who,
even without VOWS or pledges, can pull
up in time and save themselves from
eternal ruin, but of woman-not one.
And how many crimes come from drink!
Ruined homes, degraded natures, lost
repute, destroyed families, destroyed
souls-misery, vice, despair, destruc-
tion-this is the work of this arch fiend,
this malignant demon, Drink.
Children, predestined to disease and
crime, are born of mothers who know
nothing of the sacredness of their ma
ternal functions, and nothing of the
value of the lives they have given to the
world. In their i'll temper Of SOLDERING
they beat even their little babies-for
the sake of their own self-indulgence
they starve them-and in their drunken
fits they perhaps MAIN them for life, or
more mercifully, kill them outright.
There is no upward path for them-no
Scala Santa possible, save that made
by the enforced discipline of prison.
Left to themselves they are always the
same, drunken and degraded and so of
the mentor the greater part at least.
The small residuum of honest souls who
control their viler desires and break
through this f1ghtful habit, is very
small residuum indeed. All honor to
those who set themselves to the task.
Our duty-we who have no small temp
tation ourselves-is to help them on
ward, to deal with them gently while
firmly, lovingly while holding them,
with such strength as we have, to the
terrible task of the upward climb. But
in point of fact the only really hopeful
method of undertaking that steep climb
of reformation, be the thing to be re-
formed what it may, is to begin early
to crush the cockatrice in the egg; to
root out the poison-weed in its first
sprouting from the ground to make
the ascent while that ascent is gentle |
and easy, while those steps are few and
shallow. Like fire which has taken
hold of building, habit once rooted
in life is difficult, and sometimes
it is impossible, to conquer But there
was moment when it could have been
subdued with very little trouble and |
we are guilty of high treason to all that
is great and good, to all that is best in
ourselves, by our lachete then. We
have no case in our excuse now of ''im-
possibility, for the thing has gone too
ar" The past is as true as the present
md by that past wo shall be judged, un-
esn it be that the present redeenna the
of the past, and that the
Scala Santa of reformation has been
,limebd.
