The Only Reliable
- EaI,IY
Steel Barb Wire,
1872 Points to the Rod

This justly celebrated fencing is the
lightest Barb Wire made. The dia.
mond steel barb is so secured on the
wire as to allow it to vibrate, which
prevents any unnecessary dissertation
of stock. The cable wires are from
steel, No. u, plated (not twisted) to-
gether, and will stand the greatest
tensil strain.
This wire is protected against rust
by covering of Pure Boiled front Clad
Mineral Paint, which is practically
rust-proof.
The Kelly Steel Barb Wire is the
lightest, the strongest, and the best
protected against rust. The diamond
barb is SO secured on the wire that it
cannot be removed, is so strong that it
will not be bent or broken, and will re-
tain its sharp point long after all
other styles of barbs are rusted blunt.
Farmers are invited to call on the
following parties and examine before

Washington Letter.

(From our Regular Correspondent
The elections of last fall have had the ef-
feet to convince vast majorityof the en-
ployees in the Departments that it is best to
get ready for a change. This getting ready
means curtailment of expenses, q saving
up of little to get away with, and an earn<
est looking about for other employment
While to the younger employees the pros
pect creates some uneasiness, It does not
seem to produce any real distress, but to
hundreds of clerks past middle age the pos
sibilities of the next few years are appalling
enough.
Women in and out of the Departments
have had their attention called to the civil
service law and are delighted that under it
| no distinction can be made between the
sexes in competing for places. The sexes
are to be subjected to the same tests, and
| if the women excel they must be selected for
employment Heretofore women have been
Obliged to enter the service at much lower
salaries than men, entirely without refer
ence to capacity, and have never been adj
vanced to the higher grades. There are in
stances of linguists and translators at $l20O
per year sitting in the same room with men
who do vastly inferior work, but who re-
ceive for it third more salary. Many Ct
the male clerks who have been looking upon
their places as entirely secure for while at
least. are much excited over the prospect
that promotions are to be open to public
competition. II true merit is really to win
they know full well what all the intelligent,
ambitious, well educated women of the
country can do, if allowed q fair chance on
an equal footing with themselves.
The necessary omission, on account OF the
death of u cabinet minister, of the grand
banquet that had been arranged at the White
House in honor of General Diaz caused gen.
eral regret in administration circles, for the
prominence of the distinguished Mexican
warranted any attention that could have
been shown him.
There is prospect Of the addition OF an-
other collassol bronze statue to the many
already to be seen in this city. This statue
is not of military hero, but of the militant
leader of professionalism, Martin Luther. 1t
is proposed by the Lutheran Churches in
this and other cities to erect in suitable
locality fac smile of the statue in Worms.
Another statuesque idea that has been moot.
ed is to place the immense statue to peace,
that has been presented by Bartholdi, on
the Washington Monument. This monu-
ment when completed will be higher than
any ancient or modern artificial structure
and when surmounted by the bronze figure
itself $50 feet high will be SO tall that all
our rivals in monumental architecture VIII
howl in despair.

huddered on looking back. to SEQ the
frightful chasm we had 30 successfully pass
ed, aud then thought II almost q airacle
that we got safely across; but few days
afterward was convinced that in cempar-
ison the undertaking. we hod just accom-
plished was as nothing. After giving our
animals another rest we resumed our Jour-
ney alone across the dreary prairie, Not q
tree or bush aud hardly any weed could be
seen in any direction, A green carpeting
of short grass, was spread over tho vast ex-
panse, with nought else to relieve the eye.
People may talk of the solitude of our i'm
mense American forests, but there is com
pany even in trees that one misses upon the
prairie. There is food for thought, too, in
in the ocean wave, not to be found in the
Interchangeable aspect of these great western
wastes, and no where else does one feel that
sickly sensation of loneliness There he finds
no sign or trace to tell him that there is
something beyond. that millions of people
are living and moving upon the very earth
ON which he stands.

stitutions, that that they died sooner than

KENpALL's NARRATIVE CONTINUED.
Unwilling to load our horses with wet and
heavy blankets, we employed some two hours
in spreading and drying them as much as
possible, In the meantime, scanty break
fast of half cooked, half dried beef was swal-
lowed, our rifles were discharged, cleaned,
and reloaded, and our powder was examined
to see that all was right TO keep his pow
der dry is the first thing the prairie travel
or thinks of when the rain comes on, and for
tunately we found that ours was in good
order, although it seemed almost miracle
that much of it was not spoiled,
The immense chasm we were upon ran
nearly north and south, and by watch
ing the current of the stream far below US
a furious torrent raised by the heavy rain
it was seen that it ran towards the former
point. This induced Mr.. Hunt to seek
crossing to the Southwark direction. We
had gone but few miles, when large buf-
falo or Indian trails were seen, running In
southwest course, and as we Travelled on 9TH
ers were noticed bearing more to the west.
We were obliged to keep out some distance
from the ravine, to avoid the small guliles
emptying into it, and to out off the numer-
GUS turns, and in this way we travelled until
about noon, when we struck large trail
running directly west. This we followed and
on reaching the main chasm found that 1t
led to the only place where there was any
chance of crossing. Here too, we found
/ that innumerable trails centred, coming
from every direction; proof conclusive that
we must cross here or travel many miles out
of our way,
Dismouuting from our animals we look
ed down the yawning abyss before US, and
the impression upon all WAS thai the pas
sage was impossible That bufalo and
mustangs and probably In lians with their
Lo .ses. h.d crossed here, was evident
enough, for a zig-zag path had been worn
down the rocky and preoipitous sides but
bat many of our horses were unused to slid
ins down precipices as well as climbing them
AMI drew back repulsiyely on being led to
the bring of the chasm. After many un-
successful attempts mule was started down
the path thea another was inluced to follow.
Some of the horses vera fairly forced by
dint Of much shouting and pushing to at
tempt the descent In some places they
went along On tine very verge of rocky and
ani crum5ling ledses where false step
would have precipitated them hundreds OF
OF feet to instant dslth in others they were
compelled TO slide down pitches nearly
perpendicu,ar. Many Of them were much
bruised. but after an hours hard work we
al gained the bottom without sustaining
any serious injury. Finding a snail patch
of grass in the low aad secluded dell at the
bottom Of the abyss, We halted for az hour
or two TO rest orr weary animals and to seek
a trail leading up the steep on the opposite
siie. This we finally discovered, and after
the creates. ezertions succeeded in Chamber

NEW YORK, July l6-Meetings were held an
over the United States yesterday by the Brother-
hood OF Telegraphers at which some fifteen thou
sand operators were represented, 10 discuss tho
nours OF labor and compensation OF the Western
Union Telegraph company. II was decided so far
as can be ascertained Uor the proceedings were an
intended 70 be secretI, that unless the company
acSeded 70 the terms agreed upon that general
strike should take place on Wednesday next. The
strike Will include the fifteen thousand operators
aud large number. IL Is believed who are not
memberS OF the brotherhood, but who sympathize
with the movement The operators among other
.nlnes, ask that days labor consist OF eight
nours and that day operators who work at nig he
snail be paid the same salaries that are paid the
night crew and not the pro rata rate OF the day
service. As this is the largest contemplated strike
ever made on the W L. Co, IL Is Believed that the
latter Will endeavor TO compromise In advance
.hough no steps In that direction have been taken
Today. The Western Union operators say that the
american Rapid and B. & o. lines will strike nc
the same time, but their conferences are kept so
secret that IL is not known whether those com.
panieS Will compromise or not.
