The Tallest Tree in the World.

It seems that America, after all, is
unable to make good her claim to the
possession of the tallest and largest trees
in the world. Every one has read of the
Yosemite valley and Of Yellowstone
park, the huge national sporting ground
of the United States. But what are the
giants in California in comparison with
a tree which has lately been discovered
in Australasia? It has long been known
that in Tasmania there are eucalypti
measuring 200 feet from the ground to
the first branch, and more than $50 in
total height; and there is, or lately was,
on Mount Wellington, near Hobart
Town, a tree Of this species, the trunk
of which was eighty-six feet in circum-
ference. But a still more gigantic mon
arch of the woods has been discovered
in Victoria. It is a Well-proportioned
specimen of the eucalyptus amygdalina,
and its top is nearer to the sky than the
cross of st. Paul's cathedral, for it is no
less than 430 feet above the ground.

WE are in receipt of r. G. Dunn &
Co.'S semi-annual circular showing the
number of failures in the United States
and Canada during the first half of the
present year, also giving an extended
resume Of the business outlook. There
We're 1857 failures in the United States
during the past six months, as compared
with 1857 in the corresponding period
of 1882. The liabilities for this year to
July 1st, are $66, 600, 900, an increase of
SIG, 900 over the same term last year.
The number of failures the first quarter
of the year, however, is greatly in ex-
cess of the number in the second quar-
ter, and the business outlook at the pres
ent time is much more favorable. In
Montana, during the past six months,
nine failures are recorded, with liabili-
ties amounting to $50, 900.

OF gibbets and of eorpses, Of rotten rig
ging and of the tattered sails CT ships
drifting to the unknown shore. How
Dore could have painted every form of
goblincy, every fancy of ghostliness,
every grimness of witchcraft, every hor-
Tor OF death suggested by them! A
wierd spell takes hold Of you. You i'm
agine a deep mourning dropping over
the plains. The woods and groves, the
reeds and bayous appear to lament some
great bereavement, some terrible death.
1t seems as though this land were yet
weeping for Pan. And these, or recol-
lectlons of the sylvan gods and nymphs
OF antique world, crowd thick and fast
upon you; the great dreaminess of the
land mesmerizes you with unutterable
sweetness. A%fterward, when you have
returned to New Orleans and its gay
frlvolities, its west end and it's Spanish
forts, its glittering saloons and its fascin-
ating masquerade balls, its brilliant
halls and luxuriously appointed gam
bling rooms, it's Creole and Spanish
American beauties and its fetes and par
ties and a thousand and one other at
fractions, that mesmerism will not have
passed away, nor the wondrous witch
cry OF enchanted scenery wholly blotted
the mind.

A Cowboy Rumpus.

DODGE CITY, Kan, July 10.-This
evening, about 6 o'clock, q party of FIVE
cowboys well under the influence of Ii
quor, mounted their horses to leave
town, and when near the dance house
n Of them rode his horse on the porch
and fired off his pistol. Two others
then commenced firing, and at the same
time put spurs to their horses. The city
marshal and his assistants quickly ar
rived On the scene and sent a few shots
after them, and when about three hum
dred yards away fell dead from his
horse. The others escaped. It was
found that the fallen man was John
Ballard a resident Of the Indian Terri
tory, who arrived with a herd of cattle
from Texas this morning. His friends
threaten to kill every officer in town be-
fore morning.

fair association, believing that in no sec
ton of the territory can as good stock
be found as on the ranges of this part of
the country. And we are quite conf
dent that the cattle and horse men will
be found as willing to exhibit their fine
stock as the wool growers. But the mi
tiatory move must be made by the bust
ness men of Benton, who are even
more interested, for they will reap a pc
cuniary benefit from the crowds which
the yearly exhibitions would attract.
We hope that the present season will
not be allowed to pass without steps be-
ing taken towards this end. 1t surely
would not be a very hard matter to Or
ganize a stock company Of this eharac-
ter if the right sort of men would take
hold of it, men who can see the benefits
to be derived and can place them in the
right light.

A Louisiana Picture.

1T is evening, and the landscape
stretches out before one in virgin lowell
ness. The sun god, ere he bids adieu to
this scene, kisses the sinuous bayous and
streaks their mirrored tops with silver,
hrightens up the moss that streams from
the heads and limbs of trees, and throws
one blood-red CLEAN through vistas Of
evergreen dying away into blue dream
mess. Then the twilight comes on, and
soon the pale crescent filings its mystic
beams upoh the earth. The giant oaks
bedecked with moss. seem toassume fan
tastic shapes. They create suggestions

THE sheep men at their recent meet
ing took up the question of a fair associ-

it at some length. We ere pleased to
state the fact that they re strongly in
favor of a fair, and that all who spoke on
the subject declared that if an associa-
ton was formed they would bring their
stock in for exhibition-not only sheep
but all other classes Of stock of which
they might W fine specimens. To
show how much interest they take in
this matter, even those who live the
farthest, we will mention that Mr.. Fer
gus, whose home is thirteen miles be-
You'd Fort Maginnis, promises that if it
is organized he will bring horses. cattle
and sheep here to exhibit. The RIVER

There was strange and beautiful scene
witnessed In the Valley OF the Rarltan be-
tween the hills and just beyond Fox's
Gully on wednesday night at $40 o'clock.
The writer IL about TO describe something
which he saw from the rear doorway OF bis
home. the position being elevated. and
commanding full view OF the river to a
poipt two miles below the city, or until the
bend at Randalps obsfructs further view.
The full moon shone In all its silyery
spiendor on hill and dale, leaving long
streaks Of light dancing on the gentle
bosom OF the Raritan. A long tow Of
boats had swung out from the docks be-
low the city, and were in the bend at
<Sandy Bottom." when suddenly q leac.
colored cloud seemed to envelope the river.

interested beholder. The moonlight re-
ficcted on the water was no longer visible.

swell and roll In graceful volume. Ike

western bank were plainly visible. As we
were gazing In rapture on the scene, what
was our surprise 20 see an oblong shape

COSTLY ANGORA AND PERSIAN CATS TAKING
THE PLACE OF DOGS AS PETS.
lNewYor Mail and Express.I
I" Are Angora cats getting to be fashion
able for petss" asked reporter Of an
east-side dealer.
ooh, yes, indeed" was the reply
/" Within the last month the demand has
been quite large, and, strange to say, / sell
as many by mail as do in tho city. Only
yesterday sent one to New Orleans, and
last week one to Chicago. They seem to
be rapidly taking the place OF pugs. Come
In and see the cats"
So saying, the reporter was shown INTO
q room where dozen or more animals
with long tails and hair sweeping the floor
were playing together or sleeping on hair
cushions. Some were white, some tortoise,
and others mouse-colored, or blue, In the
parlance OF the trade.
"There are also black and chnchila
cats" said the dealer. "These blue ones
are the rarest, but the white cats seem to
be the greatest favortes. Some people
maitain that only the white cats are the
pure breed. but that is not so, al quite fire.
Quently white cats will have difierent-coi-
ored kittens"
"What il tho most valuable cat you
have?"
"This large white Tom is the most ex-
pensive; he Is worth $50. The other cats
are worth from $40 20 $50. The kittens
are worth s20 for the males and Sl5 for the
females"
The dealer then explained the difference
between the Angora and the Persian cats,
which Is very slight, the Persians having
longer face and larger ears. The animals
are very delicate and require great care In
raising, colds being the chief enemies Of
the feline kind. Each cat must have hair
cushion and be washed regularly and rub
bed with cocoanut oil. Birds and scraped
beef are found TO be the best food for
them. A few eats are imported from Eng
land, but most Of them are raised by man
