A NEW YORK paper says that sll the ladies at the

The girl on tricycle. has already imade her ap-
pearar &c at the miner resorts. As observed at
Newport. she sat between two wheels, which were

make divided garments necessary, as in riding
horseback man fashion. Her feet reached down
TO tres dies and her hands were employed in steer
Ing, BY meaus OF a device connected with low
front wheel. Her posture was not that of sitting,
however, but her figure was suspended nearly per-
pendicular, and her legs were moved great

stringhalt or swimmer treadIng water.
Her knees came up high, with an action
more productive OF good exercise than of grace
And yet she was "a symmetrical and pleasing
traveller" The prescribed costume is soft thin
flannel, with blouse waist and skirt reaching
just TO the gaiter tops II is obvious that the latter

the high treading REQUIRED to work the tricycle.,

the knees will protrude into them in rising"

they pass and repass; storms will beat upon

corrode and wear away. but the monument
of thought, clothed in grandeur OF words,
which Senator Voorhees, created and erected
at Wheatland on the 4th of July, 1885, in
honor Of James ID. Williams, will defy time
and the elements. Kind words, good words
great words, never die. Thousands and tens
of thousands of Indianians will never see
the granite monument at Wheatland, but
they RAY all read the mastery Grafton of

cure large profits. nor do they
relax their grasp when misfortunes
have been overcome and their causes re-
moved. The cattle kings, remarks the New
York Commercial Bulletin, by various de-
vices and combinations, manage to keep up
prices much above the natural level; and in
this, ii is said they are assisted by that other
branch of the American royal family, the
railway kings, one playing into the hands of
the other. II profits are anything like what
they are reported to be, especially in Texas,
there is large margin for reduction in
prices to something like a reasonable stand
ard. Something is needed to bring down the
exorbitant profits of the Western and South
western cattle ranches, and any movement
in that direction would be positive benefit
not only TO consumers at home, but an
aid likewise to the export trade. We
have lately had vague reports of expert
ments in slaughtering beef in the neighbor-
hood of the ranches and sending it to the
large markets i'm refrigerating ears; but we
are constrained to say, these do not appear to
be attended thus fsI with results at all COM
mensurate with previous expectations. II
the trade is left to iteelf, the adjustment of
prices might safely be left to the natural reg
ulator, demand and supply; but as it is, we
have intimations that the trunk railroad
people at this moment are about making
such changes in their freight schedules for
dressed beef for Western points 10 the sea-
board rs will practically leave no profit for
those who engage in it; in other words, the
new competitor is to be killed off by high
rates of transportation, thus practically re-
storing to the monopolists the business of
shipping beef to the seaboard markets on the
hoof at prices fixed by themselves" In this
we see that by combinations entered into be-
tween cattle men and corporations prices are
advanced to a point which deprives the
American citizen of cheap meat and
virtually places the United States on a level
with England, when fully one-half
of all the meat consumed has to be
imported. 1t may be said that the cattle
kings" have the right to obtain in the mar
ket the highest price possible for their meat.
Admit it, but the admission by no means
satisfies the purchaser. Since the cattle
kiDgs'' would be required tosell at reasonable
prices were it not for the railroads and since
the railroads are creatures of law, the public
has a right to complain if they form COM
binations with themselves or others to un-
Justly and, therefore, lnjuriously advance
the price of any food commodity. II such
things are done as the Bulletin names, then
railroad corporations become public enemies
and should be dealt with accordingly.

IT IS quite Imaginable to note the efforts
made by the Republican press to apologize
for the insuffersble disgrace heaped upon the
country by Republican policy, which has re-
suited not only in Gripping the Navy but to
a greater extent reducing the American Mer-
chsnt Marine, so far as the foreign carrying
trade is concerned, to contemplate proper
tons. The Philadelphia Press asks its read
ers to find a morsel of comfort IN the fact
that American railroads are worth almost
twice as much as England's railroads and

THE birthplace Of James Buchanan is entirely
unmarried. Nor even a sign-board points the way
to it.-New York Graphic.
Can 1t be possible that anybody thinks of hunt.
ing up the birthplace Of Buchanan? The pleasure
of gszng on the birthplace of Buchanan is similar
to the treat promised an urehin, that If he would
be real good he would be taken to see his grand
mothers grave.-JournAl-
Now, do you not think that future genera
tons will look upon anything connected
with Hon. James Buchanan with more gen.
uine admiration than anything connected
with that cider and doughnut Buckeye
blockhead, R. B. Hayes. He descends to
history smirched al over with the dirty
modes and appliances used by his partisans
to fitch him the Presidency-the very ro-
nance incarnate of sculduggery and Radl-

TIE WILLIAMS MONUMENT.

We reproduce in the Sunday Sentinel,
from our Fridays issue, the speeches of Sem
ator Voorhees, and Ex-Governor Baker, deliv-
of unwilling the monument erected to the
memory of James d. Williams, late Cover
nor of Indiana. In doing this we are per-
susded that we confer favor upon our thou
sends OF readers, who, without regard to
party utilization, have only words of respect
and admiration for the dead Governor, and
who know that no man in the State could
have been selected to deliver the
Grafton of the day better qualified
to speak of Governor Williams than Senator
Voorheae, and in the brief address of Cover
nor Baker the readers of the Sentinel will
find such an enlightened Endorsement of
Governor Williams nobility of character as
will serve to still further elevate the dead
Governor in their esteem and veneration.
Those who know Senator Voorhees, expected
from him an grafton worthy of his great
powers, and worthy of the man whose life
and deeds were his theme, and
grandly was every anticipation re-
allied. In the wide range of topics,
which it has been Senator Voorhees,
duty to discuss as public man, We doubt If
there has been one which more completely
took possession of his mind or more pro-
foundly stirred his great faculties. In the
presence of thousands the granite shaft was
unveiled which marks forever the resting
place of Governor Williams. The sun. as he
journeys from the eastern to the western
horizon, will lovingly caress the monument;
the winds will whistle and sing and sigh as

The fact that the American hen is cock OF
the walk is not generally understood, but
statistics for 1882 give her special prom

crop IS set down at f4SS, OO0, 900, cotton $410,-
100000 and poultry ct $3.50, 100000. Such
figures are in the highest degree compli-
