ANOTHER ROSE has faded, The
Chicago Times Washington CORE
spOndent says a valuable discovery
of old records has been made in the
treasury department. Recently the
pay records of the Continental es-
tablishment from 1884 to'1792 were
found In the dust-covered piles
under the roof of the treasury build
ing. These books contain the ac-
counts of General George Washing
ton, Benedict Arnold, Aaron Burr,
Jonathan 1rumbull, Marquis de La
fayette, and many other distin-
guished champions of the revolu-
tlonary struggle. The books show
a balance due the government and
unaccounted for from General
Washington of $1G1, S39. There is
nothing in existence to show how
this deficit occurred, but it is sur
missed The money was lost in mill
tary operations. There is also a
large shortage in Washington's
specie account, but this is probably
due to the depreciation of CONT
mental money. Benedict Arnold
was apparently short in his accounts
$1,sS1.67, and Lafayette's receipts
did not tally with his disburse-
meDts in the sum of S2,202.

TIE FIRE at the Standard OF
COmpany's works in Jersey City,
reported in our telegraphiG columns
this morning, will not have ten
dency to reconcile the people in the
northwestern quarter of the city to
the storage mousse being constructed
there. OF course the quantity of oil
that will be stored ON the premises
will be insignifcantly small as COM
pared with the amount destroyed at
Jersey Citys yet the fact that an oil
tank is within dangerous proxim-
ity to peoples residences will be a
source of constant and ANNOYING
apprehension. We do not know
that there is an affinity between
petroleum and lightning, but it
seems that most of the gceat oil
casualties are oceasiOned by light
ming striking and exploding tanks,
as was the case yesterday.

THE REDUCTION in the tax on
cigars has gone into effect, but
smokers have not observed the fact,
nor are they likely to. The redue-
ton amounts to less than cent on
the ordinary cigar, hence it is not
probable that the consumers will
derive any benefit, though govern
ment will lose much money. Two
thirds Of all the cigars bought by
smokers are purchased at the retail
shops or at bars, singly or by twos
or threes. If a whole box were
bought, probably the dealer might
give the buyer the benefit of part
Of the reduced tax. The reduction
of the tax amounts simply TO putting
so much more nancy into tie
pockets of the manufacturers and
cigar dealers.

IN OLD miSer died in a New
York hospital the other day, where
it was found that he was worth $40
900. This announcement is some
what strange, but not nearly so
much so as the one that the miser
was printer. a statement which is
hard to believe. People may doubt
it, but 1t is nevertheless true. that
a printer. was never known to Lave
any money, and if he did have any
he would promptly give it away.
The miser story may go down, but
The printer part of it never.

REV. DR.. DUEYEA, of the jentra
Congregational Church of Boston
speaks rather disparagingly of the
Hub. "It is the hardest place on
the planet to do honest work in an
evangelical church, he says. "Uni-
tarianism has the intellectual lead
here, and if man is in hurry for
results he'd better stay away"

Il BROOKLYN is INDUCING in an
other social scandal, and while it ii
not so sensational as the Beecher
Tilton affair, it is nevertheless ex-
, tremeIy entertaining to those per
sons who enjoy nastiness in high
social or religious life. EliJ ohnson
a prominent member Of Plymouth
church, and an enthusiastic tenn
| perance worker, has brought suit
against Mr.. Higley. also a men,
Der of the same church, for alienat-
ing his wife's affections from him.
AS matter Of course the complaint
alleges very improper and i'm
moral conduct on the part OF
Mr.. HigIey and Mrs. johnson.
who, by the way, is also a leading
light in the temperance cause. What
makes this case Of special interest
to the public, aside from the I'M
clean1y part of it, is the fact that
Johnson and mis- wife have long
been sailing under false colors, de-
ceiving people by show of honesty
and piety which neither felt. John
son has travelled over America and
Europe in the pretended interest of
the cause which he had espoused,
and now his wife endeayOrs to |
break the force of his allegations
against her, by asserting on oath |
that her husband is not to be be
lieved, and that for twelve years he
has not supported her. So that vir-
tually while this man was protesting
to try and regenerate the world, be
was leaving his wife in want,
her to the temptations
that ever beset woman. at the
same time she, being of the strong
was standing on the lee
bUre platform, appealing to her
sisters to break down social barriers
and enter upon newer and larger
domains of usefulness than the
and the Preside. He is a
'raud and she can not be considered
my better; and it is such frauds as
hese who really damage noble and
efOrmatory works. No cause, no
natter how holy, can be benefited,
ut will rather be injured, by an
dvocate who, beneath seeming :,
incerity and enthusiasm for public q q
eform, forgets to care for his own p
and leaves his wife to re-
1--WE the support from others which :
9 alone can properly give her.

visited by the agents of the American

Benjamin F., sometime general and
now governor of the Old Bay state, has
his ups as well as downs. Last week
Harvard refused to honor him with the
title of doctor of laws, as has been the
custom to do unto Mass chusetts govern
ors. Benjamin thinks this is an insult to
his supporters but so far as anybody is
insulted it is Benjamin himself for the
ground the refusal was put on was that
Butler was not too careful of the truth.
We don't fancy the present governor Of
Massachusetts particularly but reckon be
could understand the Latin on the parch-
ment that he is not to get full as well as
some who have been honored by Harvard
heretofore. But B. F. comes up smiling
again for the supreme court Of Massachu
sets has just come to his assistance on
his safe deposit veto; and on law
question the governor has got the upper
hand of his critics. So be was doctor OF
laws enough to get through that little
difficulty.

An interesting fact ABOUT Russia is that
in many of its coolest provinces fruit
growing is an important industry. In the
province of Kazan, $50 miles farther
north than Winnipeg, and where the
mercury in winter sometimes falls as low
as go below zero, apples are grown in
large quantities at a profit. In the
province of Vladimir which is almost as
cold rs Kszan. cherries of excellent
quality are raised in great abundance.
Both apples and cherries are shipped
from these provinces in large quantities.
In these high ATTITUDES fruit trees are a pt
to be small, generally not over eight feet
tall, and are planted in clumps, like stalks
of corn, Their low spreading limbs are
usually loaded with the most luscious
fruit.
