EXCITEMENT IN-PROVISIONS
The Manipulation of Prices Forcing
Up October Options.
Armour Under Pork, and Fairbanks q
Hutchinson Supporting Lard-Heavy
Transactions-Grain Weak.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.


CHICAGO, Oct Sit was the most exciting
day on Change for weeks in the provision
market, the rush to cover by the shorts and
the rumored manipulation forcing up pork
n cents, short-rib sides 60 cents and lard 40
cents, all on the October option. 1t is be-
lieved that short ribs and pork are cornered
by Armour and the Chicago Packing
Company, each acting Independently, and
that Fairbanks & Hutchinson are under
lard. Lard having bulged SO much, sales
have been made which will be filled from
surrounding markets. and even arrange
ments are making to bring over 10000
fierces from England for there is plenty of
time and money in the transaction. Armour
said to-day that pork was tasting very sweet
just now and was held by strong houses who
had places to put it all out for consumption.
The men, he said, who sold property they
did not have were too previous. He said
pork looked like good property to hold.
Prices eased off trife on call, and Hutchin-
son sold lines of October lard, and brokers
were selling pork and ribs freely supposedly
for Armour. The hog product which
changed hands to-day included 1900 900
pounds of short ribs, 10000 tierces of lard,
and 1900 barrels of pork. The rush to cover
is apparently over for the time, and prices
may recede tomorrow, but conservative
houses believe that the manipulation will
crowd up provisions to much higher range
OF values during the month.
Wheat ruled weak, and trading was of a
speculative character largely. Receipts are
moderate, but there is no improvement in
the shipping demand, and the market drags.
Corn experienced considerable decline early
in the session, caused by free offerings and a
weaker New York market. Later on an ac-
tive buying by the shorts caused a sharp re-
action, and the loss was recovered Lower
prices are expected tomorrow for corn
should break occur in provisions. Oats
were slow and speculation was neglected

The Railroad up Pixies Peak.

The railway to Pixies Peak is pro-
crossing. The route is not fully decided
upon, and surveyors are still working
busily. The road will be a narrow
gauge, the length about thirty miles.
Trains of three cars will be run, each
carrying forty persons. The officers
are making point of running the ROAD
where the finest views can be obtained,
views which will be new to the tourist,
not seen from any of the old trails.
The first twelve miles of the route will
be of surprising beauty. New camp
ing grounds will be opened high up
among the mountains, where the peo-
pie can live in tents, enjoying the pure
air and the wild grandeur of the Rock
les, sending down by rail every day for
the luxuries of civilization, and even
getting their daily papers regularly,
Some large summer hotels and sanitari-
ums will probably be erected on the
line of the road. The Pixies Peak
Railway will be looked upon as one of
the greatest triumphs of engineering
skill in America. No road, in America
or abroad, has ever been laid through
such wonderful and beautiful scenery.

Peanut Flour.

No doubt. ere long ''peanut flour"
will be an important product of the
South. Virginia is set down this year
for 100000 bushels, Tennessee for
$50, 900 and North Carolina at 1876, 600
bushels, these being the chief States
engaged in their cultivation, and those
in which it was first introduced from
Africa. In Virginia they are called
peanuts" in North Carolina "ground-
peas," in Tennessee "goobers, and in
Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi
''pinders." Virginians are beginning
to turn the peanut into flour, and say
it makes peculiarly palatable "bis-
cult" In Georgia there is custom,
now growing old, of grinding or pound
ing the shelled peanuts and turning
them into pastry, which has some re-
semblance, both in looks and taste, to
that made of cocoanut, but the peanut
pastry is more oily and richie and, we
think, healthier and better every way.
If, as some people believe, Africa sent
a curse to America in slavery, she GER
tainly conferred upon her blessing in
the universally popular peanut, which
grows so well throughout the Southern
regions that we shall soon be able to
cut off the now large importation al.
together.

Lord Alvanley's Duel.

On the way home after his duel with
O'Connell, in hackney coach, Lord
Alvanley said "What clumsy fell
low O'Connell must be to miss such
fat fellow as l am He ought to prac-
tice at a haystack to get his hand in. +"
When the carriage drove up to Alvan-
ley's door, he gave the coachman a
sovereign. Jarvie was profuse in his
thanks, and said. ''It's a great deal
for only having taken your lordship to
Wimbledon" "No, my good man, "
said Alvanley, 81 give it you not for
taking me, but for bringing me back. "
Everybody knows the story of Gunter,
the pastry cook. He was mounted on
runaway horse, with the Kings
hounds, and excused himself for riding
against Lord Alvanley by saying, "oh,
my Lord, l can't held him; he's SC
hot p' "Ice him, Gunter-ice him p
was the consoling rejoinder.

Mrs. Davidson were friends of his
younger days of whom l had never

cisco on business, he naturally stopped
at their house.
"Mrs. Davidson will have to adver-
tise for another cook at once" he said.
1 could see that he was shocked at
my plebian calling, but joy at seeing
me outweighed all other emo tions.
That was four years ago. Father
took me back home, and tried by every
thing that money could buy or love sug-
gest to make me forget my sorrow.
Sometimes Chauncey Temple visited us,
and year after my return home he
asked me to be his wife but 1 said
"No." Another man would have CIV
en- up; not so Mr.. Temple; he waited
patiently.
II don't ask you to forget the past. I"
he said, "but | love you so dearly
that 1 know [ can help 10 make you
happier"
Six months ago father said to me
"Madge, my daughter, should like
to see you the wife Of Chauncey Tenn
pie. Not that expect you to forget,
but you are young and would be hap
pier with new interests in life."
Mr.. Temple had been several weeks
in Albany, attending an interminable
law suit. That night he said to me
"Madge, will wait forever if need
be. l don't want to take Harold's IS
place in your heart /; but can you not
love me little too ? AS for me |
shah love you always, and none other.
Can you not trust yourself to me ?"
thought about it week longer,
and the day he left for home 1 gave him
the final answer. To-morrow-no, to-
day; it is past midnight now-I shall
be the wife of Chauncey Temple.

SEEDS OF KINDNESS.

There never was golden sunbeam
That fell on desolate place,
But left some trace of its presence
That time could never efface.
Not song Of ineffable sweetness
That ravished the listening ear,
Then slumbered in silence forgotten
For many and many year
But a word or tone might awaken
Its magical power anew,
Long after the sweet-voioed singer
Had faded fro earthly view.
Nor heart that was ever so weary,
Or tainted with sin and despair,
But word of tender compassion
Might find an abiding place there.
Yet countless thousands are yearning
For sympathy, kindness and love,
And souls are cropping in darkness
Without one CLEAN from above.
There was never sunbeam wasted,
Nor song that was sung in vain,
And souls that seem lost in the shadows
A Sayiour's love may reclaim.
Then scatter the sunbeams ofkindness;
Though your deeds may never be know
The harvest will ripen in glory,
Ifthe seed be faithfully sown;
And life will close with blessing,
And fade into endless day;
Like the golden hues of the sunbeam
That fade into twilight gray.

NCMBER rs.

For more than thirty years we have
had to do more or less with the rearing
Of calves. Our experience has taught
us that soour in calves arises from
many causes. Change of food, insult
able food, cold, wet, bad litter, etc.,
will induce scour. We have tried many
sorts of medicine. For several years
we proved that from thirty to sixty
drops according to age of calf of
chlorodyne, in little water, given
early, at once stops the complaint
second dose was very rarely necessary.
Latterly, we haye weaned the calves
gradually from their mothers milk and
reared them on skinned milk, since
which time we have had little or no
scour. One calf had scour by its moth
er's side, three or four days old, we put
it on another eow and saved the calf.
We could not perceive anything amiss
with the mother or her milk, but it did
not suit her calf.-Fdrm and Home.
LARGE GRAPEs.-If you want large
grapes, break off all the suckers at
once, which are shooting out from the
lower part of the vine. They will not
be found much on old vines, but will
be seen on young stock. If allowed to
remain they will exhaust the energy
necessary to the growth of the grape.
Break off all the new canes that do
noHbear grapes, and pinch off the ends
of the bearing canes say within two
leaves of the last bunch of grapes or
blossoms, there usually being three
punches of grapes on a bearing cane,
and the last or top branch is about one
foot or more from the main branch.
Keep all the growth back to the above
limits, and your berries will be large
and the punches increase in size.

descendant of the Conqueror is still
mistress of the White Tower, which
for 800 years has guarded the symbols
of our national power. 1t is true that
in point of picturesque beauty, the
Tower must yield to eof its younger
rivals. 1t is not the mountain-like
grandeur of the Palace Of the Popes at
AvignOn, nor the fairy beauty of the
Doge's Palace at Venice, nor the sky
line of the Old Palace at Florence, or
Of the Castle at Prague much less has
it the weird impressiveness of that
skeleton of castles, the upper city of
Carcassonne, or the piles of Loches,
Ceinon and Anglers. The glory of the
Tower of London lies in its matchless
historical record. Carcassonne has been
ruin now for six centuries the civic
palaces of Italy, Germany and the
Netherlands had history at most for
few hundred years and Avignon re-
cords but an episode in the career of the
Papacy, seventy years of servility,
ferocity and vice.
The building of all others which in
historic dignity approaches most nearly
the Tower is that fragment of the great
palace of the Capetian Kings beside the
Seine, which now survives under the
name of the Conciergerie, of which the
Palais de Justice is the transformed
Court of Justice, and of which the
Sainte Chapelle of st. Louis was the
proper Chapel Behind that screen of
brand-new Gothic lestorations with
which the Viollets-le-Duc have every
here enveloped the ancient monuments
of France. Parisians, if they only knew
it, might still find the fortress of their
ancient monarchy worthy to compete
in historical Importance with the Tower
of London itself.
We are far too apt to think of the
Tower as mere prison, and to dwell
too long upon its bloody memories.
Prison it is, far the most memorable in
the world, or at least second only to the
Mamertine Prison by the Capitol. But
it is not a whit more prison than it is
fortress, or palace, or seat of govern
ment, or court of judgment and court
of record. 1t is prison by accident,
or by consequence not that it was built
as prison, or ever destined to be a
prison but because all governments
seek to have prisoners of state in the
most central and secure seat of their
power. The Tower is not more bloody
than the Crown of England or the his
tory of England. 1t has been the home
of some of our greatest rulers, the scene
of some OF the wisest councils, the
things, and the subject of some of the
noblest poetry in our language. The
| Tower has really a fourfold character
and fouTfold history. 1t is palace
fortress, treasure-house and seat of gov.
ernment it is only prison as part of thu
functions Of fortress. Perhaps th'
reason why we Londoners usually re
gard the Tower rs a prison is that to-
many Of us visit it as children, or in com
pany with children, and then the tale
about racks, martyrs, the young prince
and the Traitors Gate form the natura
staple of the talk.-London Times.

The Most Elegant Seminary in
America.

II has already been announced that
the Chestnut Street Seminary of Phila-
delphia, conducted by the Misses Bon
ney and Dillaye, is henceforth to be-
located at Ogontz, near Chelten Hills,
Pa, formerly the property of Jay
Cooke. 1t was Mr.. Cookies own deci-
sion that the mansion and grounds
should be devoted to this purpose, and
several m, nths ago he began the need
full alterations in his old home to fit it
for its new use. Upon these he has
expended about $1,000, and is furnish
ing the house at a cost of S25, 200. Its
outdoor accessories and surroundings,
comprising everything which twenty
years ago Mr.. Cooke deemed necessary
to the completeness of his home, leave
nothing to be desired. The house
stands on rising ground, commanding
a charming outlook in all directions
over richly cultivated rolling country,
dotted with beautiful cottages and
country seats. 1t is Immediately sur
rounded by forty acres of fine lawns
and gardens, the entire farm or grounds
belonging to it comprising 200 acres.
The railroad station is less than half a
mile distant, the roads are all macada-
mized, there is gas-house constructed
of granite, by means of which not only
the house but the lawns are lighted, a
beautiful clear brook flowing through
the grounds, bowling-alley and a
natatorium. There are conservatories,
hothouses, greenhouses, graperies, and
other comforts and conveniences
among which should be mentioned sta
bling for any horses which pupils may
choose to bring, as is not unusual il
such institutions.
The superb Norman Gothic building
five stories high, and containing nearl!
one hundred rooms, is constructed o
mica-granite and iron, with layers o
plaster between ceilings and floors, t,
make it as nearly fire-proof as q hous
can be; and it is supplied with mum
Der of wide stairways, securing saf
and speedy egress. Mr.. Cooke has de
clared his intention of keeping hous
and grounds in their best condition
and 5paring no improvement that ma
suggest itself to make of the plac
everything that can be desired from
sanitary and material standpoint,
