A Millionaire Editor.
LNew YorIl Mornlne JonrnaI. /

Mr.. Charles A. Dana, the brilliant
editor of the sun, has purchased the
residence now in course of erection on
the corner of Madison avenue and
East Sixteenth street. The price paid
is Sl50,000, and the location is very
desirable one. The building will, of
course, he completed in conformity
with Mr.. Dana's excellent taste.
This mark prosperity is very graft
flying to those to whose instruction,
information and enjoyment Mr.. Dana
has so largely contributed as an editor.
All editors ought to be millionaires
like Mr.. Dana. II is proper that they
should be Independent of all influen-
ces, and their honest labor entities
them to enjoy the good things of this
life. The people OF New York have
an interest in making their newspaper
men wealthy and keeping them so.

They will never supplnnt literary and
classical schools, though they will al.
ways supplement them and utilize
their work. They will never grow oui

favor, but constantly grow ia both so

American ideas have the same ten
dency.

Commercial schools with intelligent
teachers AT their head should do much
better When pupil has learned that
every transaction has two sides and
that when u Is fully recorded in a
ledger the two sides will equal, he has

learned very little ofrcal bookkeeping.

does, what end he has IN view, and
how that end Is to he accomplished, he
may make progress la the manipuld-
ton, but not In knowledge. And the

forth In European schedules, while
they possibly cover broader field,

CONCLUSION.
Let us remember that we are not
making merely clerks and book-keep-
crs but men and women; aud while
we are attempting To accomplish their
best good through efficiency in their
studies, let us not be unmindfui of
their moral training, but in all eflectual
ways enforce the lessons of honesty
and true mnnllness. II Is not ncCes-
sary 10 this end that we establish
chairs of commercial ethics and fill
them with superannuatcd clergymen
or deeply learned philosophers. There
IL scarcely day, or an hour, that some
incident does not occur, or some ques-
ton PROFOUND itself, from which a
timely lesson may not be drawn and
enforced.
The young men and boys who are
in our schools to-day will, in less than
ten years, be shaping the concerns of
this great nation--not only making It's
laws and enforcing them, but impress
ing It's character upon the civilized
world The eyes Of the civilized
world are upon us. America can do

Let her respond by giving to the
world class Of business men, who,
besides having intelligence, shrewd-
ness, attachments, and the faculty of
earning and holding wealth, shall
possess that spirit Of argo-heartedness
which comes only of conscious integ
rity, and that quality of selt-respect
which restsupon unassailable honesty

The F.ssEe-Ths Crops.

A correspondent to the Dallas Itemizer
very appropriately says: Many farme rs
think that the freeze we have had this win
ter is great damage to the crop prospects,
on account of it's having killed gut much Of
the fall sowing; but from my observations
during residence OF more than Thirty five
years in this county, I think the loss com
psratively trifing, when We consider the
whole crop question. The freeze killed ou:
more wild oats and weeds than summer
following could do; it has pnfIed up and
pulverizsd the soil, so as to leave it in bet
ter condition than any rlowing can do; and
all that is necessary to replace the crops in
jured will be to resow and harrow the
ground; it will not need to bs replowed.
The prospects viii be the best for spring
crops We have had for many years, and our
wi5est farmers, who had Intended to sum-
mer:-follov large fields, will now sow them
to spring grain, and resp large crops off of
them instead Of being compelled to let them
lie follow this year. If the farmers gener-
ally tax, the proper view Of the situation.
we viii have larger average of grain this
year; by very much, than we have ever
had before; and there can be no doubt of a
larger yield.

The latest and most successful treatment
for this dreadful disease has lately come to
our knowledge, and having interviewed the
man who says his life was saved by the
ne.s treatment we feel confident it is our
duty to give the facts to our readers, that
they may investigate for themselves. The
circumstances AREAS follows: Ameda Char
tier, of West F.rnham, P, O., recently had
diphtheria; he became SO bad of after a
relapse that all hopes of his recovery was
abandoned by his physicians and friends,
andas last resort a brother of the patient
said that he hadsa bottle of KendaH's Spayin
Cure and wished to try it. He applied it to
the neck, and then reduced little, and the
patient after scme difficulty succeeded in
gargling it in the throat. He soon noticed
some Improvement, and by continuing its
use complete cure was effected, and now
he say, he Enows it saved his life. The
above remarkable experience led us tc in
vestigase farther, and we found that Ken
dail,s SPAWN Cure has the most remarkable
effect on human flesh of any remedy OF
which we have ever heard, and we have
become soundly converted to the opinion
that no remedy has ever been discovered
which possesses such remarkable qualities
for the diseases Of man as well as beast.
Every one should cut this ont and paste
into a scrap p-book.

The Horse.

We have received quantity of treaties
on the horse, which we propose to give
awsy to every subscriber paying in advance,
if requested, whether personally, or by
mail; if by mail send cent stamp to pre-
ray postage. This book is well worth the
price of the paper 81. so to any pseoen
having horses. TheAmerican C,.ltiuator has
the following to say of the treatise:
'.Kendall's Treatise on the horse is book
of about 80 pages, with paper covers, fully
illustrated, and containing an Index Of
Diseases" which gives the symptoms, cause
and the best treatment of each; table Civ
ing all the principal drugs used for the
horse, with the ordinary dose, effects and
antidote when poison, table with an en-
craving OF the horses teeth at different
ages, with rules for telling the age of the
horse; valuable collection of receipts, and
much other valuable information. In pre-
pairing copy for this book it was the aim of
the author to make it as plain as possible
for the non-professional readers, and give
them information which is of the greatest
to horsemen, and yet avoiding
all technical terms as much as possible, and
also condensing the book as much az pos
sible without leaving out the real essential
in treating each subject. Every
farmer or horse-owner should own ons oi
these little books.

city, was shown US few days ago, says the
Albany Democrat. Mr.. Watkins is at Brit
ton Station, about twenty-five miles from
Baker City. In partnership with three
others he has taken up mining claim which
no doubt will pan out well. Claims Of the
same size on each side were sold by Dan
Cornes to an Eastern Company for 1000
each. They have dug bitches and have
plenty of water, and their assays show $500
to $500 to the ten. We were shown a
specimen of quartz sent by Mr. Watkins,
which indicates gold at least $500 to the
ton, If not more He thinks it will pay
them $40 to si2 per day. They have sunk
a shaft in quartz ledge SO feet and are
looking for big results. One quarts mine
recently sold for $40, coo, and another for
$4,000. One man last year took $4,000 out
in weeks. Mr.. Watkins states times as
very good, and believes that will be great

Anderson's Sentence.

| Albert Anderson. convicted of murder in
the first degree, at Portland, for the killing
of his brother, was sentenced by Judge Scott
on last Friday morning. After the motion
| for new trial was denied the court direct
ed the prisoner to stand up. He promptly
responded by rising. The judge said:
''Have you anything to say why sentence
of death should not be passed upon you ?''
Anderson responded in somewhat low
tones, and in quite imperfect English, his
| language being broken by the Norwegian
dialect. as follows:
81 was thinking to have good deal to
say, but do not sac there is any use in
doing so.''
The court-"You have full liberty to
make any statement. you may desire"
Anderson-"I have not had justice in
this cenrt. .-saSarsas l have seen, there
ha, been a determination to hang me,
It's no use to look for justice here, and ]
do not expect it."
The prisoner started to say something
more, but evidently concluded to stop, and
| stood for some moments, as if waiting to
collect his thoughts. The silence, which
became very painful, was at last broken by
Judge Stott, who pronounced the following
sentence:
'The judgment of the court is, that you
be taken from this place by the sheriff and
kept in close confinement until the 18th
day of April next, and on that day, be-
tween the hours of 9 and 2 o'clock, you
will be taken to place suitably prepared
and there hanged by the neck until you are
dead. And may the Lord have mercy upon
your SOUL
As the last words of the sentence were
pronounced there was visible tremor in
the voice of the judge, indicating deep emo
tion. But it was far different with the
prisoner. His countenance changed from
the sullen, dogged Indifference assumed
while making his speech to a broad, sar-
castle smile which was SO entirely out of
keeping with the occasion as to shock many
who were present. He started to move
away as if he were through and desired to
geS away from the scene, but was told to
be seated. He sat with sullen air.
Mr.. Chapman, of counsel for Andersen,
asked for fifteen days in which to prepare
his exceptions and present his appeal to the
supreme court, which was granted.
The prisoner was then taken to his cell
and the crowd dispersed.

the absence of Nrs. Miller as her taste is

fact she is the oracle they consult on all oc-

The following from the Albany Democrat
has more than local application to that
place: ''There are several in this city,
daughters of respectable parents, who are

associations will carry them. They are al
lowed to run around the streets so much
and 60 with such hoodlumish young men
that their characters are becoming tainted to
such degree that they are almost past re-
demption. If their parents would keep
them from going over the falls they had bet
ter turn over a new leaf pretty quick, for in

your daughter is walking in the crooked
path but we enioin you 10 be sure Of the
