Headers.

81 put some of the punches of my Eumelan
grapes in paper bags, but the fruit did not ripen
bc very good, although the covered lunches looked
better than the uncovered ones What has been
the experience of others the past year ?"-Alpha,
Delaware
Ans.: The testimony as to the value of COW
ering grapes is generally favorable; the fruit
is somewhat retarded in ripening but when
ripe is higher favored, and the punches are
well colored. Those who have had the most
experience in bagging, confidently recommend
ii as the best expedient yet adopted to get
perfect fruit.

AnS.: We know nothing about it except as
stated in an Agricultural Department Report,
viz. That it was a selected cane taken from a
parcel Of seed received from Paris by f. Y.
Teas, Of Dunreith, Indiana. This single cane
ripened its seed before the rest Of the crop was
in bloom. The seed was saved and planted SO
as TO avoid admixture with other varieties its
superior qualities were recognized, and its name
was suggested from its earliness and fair color.

Sending Pension Applicants to the Courts.
From the PtAqdeIphfn Ti11es.1

Almost any change in the pension laws must b
to their improvement, but measure that looks to
the abandonment of the special agents in this de-
partment will be especially gratifying to those who
have given the subject any attention Ever since
the present system has been in operation the one
commanding abuse has been found in the special
agents. Not only has the cost of the service been
greatly dispropOrtiOIed TO its value, but it has
been prolific of suspicion if not of actual
scandal, on account of the lax Irregular methods
of conducting the examinations committed by the
laws to these officials Information comes from
Washington that Ex-Governor Curtin will propose
plan at early date which will remedy the
abuses involved. His plan is to vest in the local
courts jurisdiction to investigate the claims thus
removing the matter from the influences of politics
or personal consideration and throwing about 10
the security of judicial impartality Of course OBJ
lection will be made to this system that it will in
the burdens of the local courts but the hope
that justice will be subserved, the pension frauds
prevented, and the deserving pensioners protected
in their rights will amply compensate for the in
creased labor to the courts

Opposed to Soldiers Orphans Schools.

It's eighteen years since the close of the war,
and the exceptionally benefcent system of educat-
ing the soldiers orphans the wards of the State
has more than completed its mission, but the Sol
diers' Orphans schools are yet in existence, and
why? 1t canuot be pretended that the fullest pur-
pose of the of the soldiers orphans has not
been fulfilled but what was founded a system OF
most generous justice has degenerated into sys-
tenn of dishonoring mendicancy, and the demand
is made that the orphans schools shall be con-
tinued five years longer. To do so would be q
double wrong-a wrong to the State and a wrong
to her soldiers. 1t would be LJblic degradation
there can be plausible excuse for such public ex-
penditure, twenty twenty-five years after the
has ended and the fathers Of the orphans presuma-
bly, dead.

Another MOnstrOus Pension Job.

BY the strong vote of 157 yeas to 81 nays the
House on Monday set apart day for the considera-
ton of the bill which gives TO every surviving SOL
der or sailor of the Mexican war and to every
vivOr of the Creek Seminole and other Indian hos
tilities preceding the Mexican war; pension of So
a month.
This measure has been for several years before
Congress seeking recognition but has been put OFF
from session to session, until more urgent pension
jobs should be pushed to success.
The establishment of the principle on which this
bill is founded would fasten a terrible burden upon
the finances Of the country. No one questions the
propriety of pensioning the soldiers and sailors
who were MANNED or made permanent invalids, as
well as the needy dependents of those who died in
the discharge of their duty. But to put upon the
pension rolls all who were in service, even if they
never smeIt gunpowder is an entirely different
matter.

the rest being in the famous collection of the

from different periods in the life of Alexander
the Great. The hangings are each about IS

Editor Mstterson,s Dirty Fling.

From the Louisville Colsrfer-JournGLI
The ways of the pension claim agent are dark
and obvious. 1t is now proposed to pay every per-
son who lost an eye in the army navy during the
civil war a pension of SIS month. If the injured
person thinks his other eye has been in any way
affected by the loss of the first the pension is to be
increased to SIS month. 1t is easy to see how the
claim agents will increase the pension list with
such They will get hold of all of the oneeyed
men they can find, provide them with fraudulent
papers and put them through, and pocket fifty per
cent or more o. the proceeds themselves.

A Good Friend to the Chinese.

SAN FRANCIsco.-ConsuI A. F. Bee, of the

clearly in saying that he as well as his family,
have suffered severely from rheumatism and
neuralgia, and that medicines were used in
vain. AT last ST. Jacobs Oil was tried, which
effected immediate cures in every case. The
Consul regards the Oil as the greatest pain cur
ing remedy in existence.
