JERSEY CATTLE IN AMERICA.
In 1865 the American Jersey Cat
tie Club was established. The soci-
ETY. has done vigorous and success
ful work in guarding the purity of
the stock and extending the knowl-
edge of the merits of this breed.
These merits were not, ut first, eth
er widely or willingly recognized /;
and the Jerseys or as they were
then and are now sometimes wrong
ly called Alderneys-were seldom
seldom seen except upon the lawns
or in the stables of men of wealth.
Gradually, however, the reports of
the great yield of butter made by
cows eff this breed reused the inter
est of practical farmers, and the
growing Demand for the butter OF
these cows further increased their
popularity; and soon the little COW
which had been laughed at as an ex-
peneive foolish luxury, became to
practical breeders of butter stock an
absolute necessity. In fact, the
growth in numbers and in value Of
this breed of cattle in this country
during the past ten years has nc
parallel in the history of thorough,
bred stock. A dozen years ago Jer-
sey cattle were not seen at the shows
half dozen years ago they were
shown, but not with the expectation
of rousing much interest, much les:
with the expectation of winning
prizes, for none were orffered tol
for this despised breed. Three years
ago, at large fairs, Jerseys were moi
classed with or judged according tc
the rules which govern the exhibi
ton of thoroughbred cattle. To-day
in nearly every State in the Union
the Jerseys shown outnumber any
other breed upon the grounds, anc
in some States they outnumber al
other breeds. 1t is about the stalls
of this breed that, to-day, the larg-
est number of interested spectator:
gather; and this breed during the
past year has, in the average amount
realized at public auction, taken itt
position at the head of all others in
the United States.

a SOUTHERN TRIBUTE.
PRESENTATION or A MEMORIAL To
MRS. GARFIELD--TOUCHI
INCIDENTS.

| CLEVELAND, Feb. 22.-S. A. With.
ers, James d. Campbell, B. F. Knipe
and Ferdinand ID. Schwartz, the
committee appointed by the Exon
federate soldiers resident in Cincin-
matt and its vicinity, arrived here
this morning, bringing with them
the memorial tribute to the late
President prepared for Mrs. Gar
field. The resolutions are framed
in Tennessee colored marble, about
two feet square. The United States
coat of arms is inlaid in Mexican
onyx at each corner. The commit
tee called upon Mrs. Garfield this
forenoon and formally presented the
testimonial. c. A. Withers, former
ly Adjutant-General of Gen. ]. III.
Morgan's staff, made the presenta-
ton address, as follows: at is with
mingled feelings of qualification and
regret that L have the honor, mad
am, of presenting to you this memo
rial of the Confederate soldiers
of Cincinnati. 1t is gratifying that
we can truthfully and feelingly
unite our voices in commendation Of
the Iamented dead with those of the
many thousands of a common peo-
pie. The occasion which called for
such sentiment is painful in its rec
objections and as fully deplored by
the people of the South as by those
of any other section of the country.
The unanimity with which these
resolutions were passed and the ex-
pressions contained therein speak
more than any words of mine, and
you can rest assured, madam, that
in them is voiced the tribute of all
the old soldiers of the South to the
sterling worth of the late President" "
Mrs. Garfield, by great effort,
repressed her emotion, while the
aged mother of the late President
wept freely. The ladies were both
clad in deepest mourning. The late
Presidents widow, her voice trem-
bling with emotion, replied to the
address of Gen. Withers as follows:
"Gentlemen-I am very grateful to
you and to those from whom this
beautiful gift comes for its sake and
for the sentiment expressed" The
two ladies then examined the me-
mortal gift and expressed their ad-
miration of the frame to Mr.. Knipe,
its maker, who said: "My heart
went out in sympathy for the Pres
ident. [ volunteered to make that
frame, and / made it so that it may
remain standing testimony of the
Southern sentiments. Gen. With
ers added: "And, moreover, we
want to show these Northern poll
ticians that we eX-Confederates are
not as black as they try to make US
out" The younger Mrs Garfield
responded: 1T had always been the
Generals wish that there should be
no North or South. His earnest de-
sire was to see a united country and
had he lived" (here her grief
oyercame her and the sentence was
unfnished). After a brief silence
courtesies were exchanged and the
visitors withdrew and drove to Lake
View Cemetery to visit the vault
wherein Gen. Garfeld's body re-
noses.

\ HIGHLY SENSATIONAL
cI TALE.
Brigham Young Said to be Alive
and Ready for q Great Res
surrection Act.

4 OMAHA, Ncb., March 5.-A man
from Salt Lake, visiting in this city,
in the course of an animated conver-
sation on the anti-Mormon move
ment, said that he belived that
Brigham Young is still alive. He
said he saw the body which was
supposed to be that of the Mormon
leader, and, while it might have
borne some slight resemblance to
that of Brigham Young, it was in
reality that of some other person.
He knew Of hundred Latter-day
Saints who also failed to recognize
the body as that of Young. He had
heard Brigham Young often predict
that he should be resurrected from
the dead, and he firmly believed
that when the crisis arrives in the
affairs of the Mormons the resurrec-
ton dodge will be played upon the
ignorant, superstitious and fanatical
people who compose the Mormon
Church. This cunning plan will be
in keeping with the various tricks
and pretensions that have charac-
terized the Mormon Church since
its inception. Brigham Young, a
shrewd and far-seeing man, knew
that the day was not far off when a
vigorous crusade would be made on
the Mormon Church, and he adopt
ed the resurrection game, to be put
into operation at a time when the
people shall need something in the
shape of a miracle to firmly cement
them together and fight to maintain
the principles of the faith. The
man who made these statements is
a Mormon, but not polygamist.
He is what is known as JOsephite,
or a believer in the true Mormon
Church, founded by Joseph Smith,
and he denies, with all Josephites,
that polygamy was ever a part OF
the Mormon faith preached by
Smith. He is extensively engaged
in business in Utah, and is regarded
as a man of sound judgment and
veracity. While here he visited
some of the Omaha Josephites, and
it was to them that he made the
of the plan by which
Brigham Young is 70 create the
greatest sensation of modern times
He bad many business dealings
with him. He asserts, with the
complete organization and secret
of the church, it would be
an easy matter to keep Brigham
Young concealed for almost any
length of time, and reproduce him
when most needed to revive the
faith Of believers by his apparent
resurrection. That his resurrection
would be taken as matter of fact
there is no doubt, and the supersti-
tious people would follow the Proph-
cts banner with the zeal of fanatics
and shed their blood in its defense.
This Josephite's statement is to
some extent confirmed by retired
army officer, who was on the most
friendly and intimate terms with
Brigham Young. This officer, who
viewed the alleged remains of
Young, has it is said, made the as
sertion that it did not bear the
slightest resemblance to Brigham

A GRANGER COUNTY SNAKE STORY
/ 20 the Editor Of The sfsr1istOwn Gszettef
1t has been raining here for near
Iy three weeks almost incessantly
but occasionally a sovereign comes
in from the country. Among 9th
ers, we recently met up with John
Watson, austensibly known as the
''opossum hunter" Several persons
were in the counting room of III. Il.
Jarnagin, killing time, when Wat
son let off in his usual way by say
ing that him and his neighbor Bill,
last summer, were walking along a
private pathway on the side of
Clinch mountain, and that he saw a
rattle snake quietly lying in his coil.
He called out low, "stop, Bill" and
he proceeded at once to cut two
forks, first placing one of them over
the snake a short distance behind
its head, then he said, hold him
down, Bill, and with his knife he
cut through the skin all around it's
neck. Then he placed the other
fork about midway the reptile, and
said, e turn loose his head, Bill. I"
Immediately the snake made great
efforts TO get away, and in a short
time, actually craloled ont Of his
hide. "Then," concluded Watson,
e / got sorry for the critter. 1t look
ed so innocent-like, / hadn't the
heart to kill it. This same Watson
is the man who caught twelve coons
and opossums while going and re-
turning after an experienced old Ia
dy to visit his sick wife. He is well
known, and a large portion of his
life is now in manuscript and will
soon be printed. r.

No, it is not great poem.
Why is it not a great poem?
Because it is dull, labored, clum-

No poem can be great that is drag

main strength and awkwardness.

Daniel Rice, eighteen years old or

young men were standing together
talking on timely topics. The Sui

remarked to Rice, Strike me on the

strike" Rice, in response, struck
him a moderate blow on the breast

wasn't very hard blow, was it2"
Whereupon Murphy smiingly an

Rice and his friends we're surprised
to see him fall TO the ground, and
horrified on picking him up to find
him in his death throes, the grim

A German Soldier 5 Mistake.

When first landed in Berlin, says a
correspondent Of the 81. Louis Globe
Democrat, the weather was cold and all
the officers were wearing their overcoats,
and thought ] had never seen such
lot Of very broad-shouldored men. Even
the shortest men were giants across the
shoulders But it wasn't long before |
saw some of them take of their coats in
a cafe one night, and the illusion was
dispelled All that square-shouldercd
appearance was given 10y an enormous
amount of padding, and the innocent
sham was exposed. BY the contrast,
these officers always appear narrower
in the shoulders than the really are, An
officer is very proud Of his Uniform, and
is very jealous OF having il properly
noticed and respected. Young Altman,
the son of an old Berlin family, was APP
pointed Second Lieutenant not long
ago. Whenhe got his uniform he started
out to show it of, unadorned by an over
coat, though the weather was quite cold.
After he promenaded for some time and
had received the Salutes of many officers
and privates, he passed an officer on the
other side of the street, who, mutilod in
his overcoat and buried in thought, did
not notice the Lieutenant's ceremonious
salute Ncttled at the slight to his new
uniform, the Lieutenant dashed across
the street, stopped the derelict officer
and accused him of a willful breach OF
military etiquette. This officer explain
ed and apologized but the Lieutenant
would not listen to him. The more the
officer explained and apologzed the
more insultcd the Lieutenant became,
finally insisting on receiving the officer
card in exchange for his own. The Of
fcer was disposed to refuse this demand,
and again offered his apologies, but
the Licutenant's blood wis up, and he
pressed his demand Finally the officer
said; "Well, if nothing will do you but
my name, you can have it. | am the
Prince Frederick Carl at the same
time opening his coat and showing his
decorations. Lieutenant Altman is not
