Grant, Arthu,. and Conkling.
Washington Special Brooklyn Eagle co.
Much significance is attached here to a
visit which Arthur paid to ex-President Grant
last night. The general arrived in Washing
ton two or three days ago and is stopping at
the Arlington hotel. He is slowly recover
ing, and will, it is said, be able to dispense
with the use of crutches within three weeks
Arthur's visit was by no means mere
matter of courtesy. There was no ceremony
about it; there was no third party present,
and the talk lasted for two hours and a half
1t is rumored here that ''Clint" Wheeler,
who is also stopping at the Arlington and
who is one of Arthur's shrewdest supporters,
brought about the conference.
A stalwart Republican told me this morn
ing that the visit was the first step looking to
a reconciliation with Conkling. He pre-
dicted that one of the consequences of the
call would be that of half-breeds and the
stalwarts would shake hands. 1t is not that
Conkling likes Arthur more, but Blaine less,
and is getting angry at the favor with which
the name of the gentleman from Maine is
being received.

The Indians Must Go.


MILES CITY, March 24.-Deputy sheriffs
arrived to-day from Rosebud, having in
charge thirteen Cheyenne Indians, supposed
to be implicated in the burning of Alderson's
house. They were placed under guard and
will have an examination in few days.
This event is the logical result of the policy
of the Indian department in quartering
lot of predatory savages in a section or coun-
try largely occupied by cattle ranges, and
failing to properly care for the Indians or
confine them to any reservation. The band
who committed this outrage do not belong to
the Cheyennes who have been in this coun-
try for the last four years under charge of
the military, but to the reservation at Red
Cloud, and who under the leadership of their
chief, Black Wolf, left there last fall andhave
foraged on the country and their brother
savages in this locality since then. The
statements telegraphed from here that there
was intense excitement and feeling of
insecurity are sensational in the extreme.
The settlers are in no danger from these
providers, but as long as they are allowed to
roam around the country and kill steer
whenever opportunity presents and hunger
suggests, solong will these rows occur. The
cowboys are naturally antagonized, and as
Cney oah ohoo' anu iiAc J"e' 40 wei 90 'ii0
Indians, they are abundantly able to give a
good account of themselves in any encoun-
ter they may have. The present row grew
out of an act of bravado by a cowboy, who
made an off hand shot at an Indians hat
and scored a furrow in the Indians scalp,
in retaliation for which the Indians burned
Mr.. Alderson's house, Che and family being
absent in Miles City, destroying consider
able household effects But back of all this
are numerous acts of trespass committed by
Indians on the range cattle of the locality,
for which the cowboys are ready and anxious
to make reprisals in any way convenient.
The cattle interests of the country demand
that these Indians who have no reservation
and no rights here, shall go.

Minnesota Shot and Lead Co.

The Minnesota Shot and Lead company
has been organized with capital of $50, 900,
and under the management of well know
and experienced men.
The works will be built and operated IN
der the personal supervision of the President
Mr.. G. A. B. Carter, who has been during
the past four years the manager of the Omaha
Shot company.
Mr. Ripley, the vice president, is well
known to the wholesale trade of this section
having represented the shot business on the
past ten years. Mr.. j. D. Carter, secretary,
is the present manager of the Dubuque Shot
company.
The gentlemen state that they have not yet
selected a site for the factory, but that the
machinery has all been ordered, plans drawn
for the buildings and men are already at
work framing the timbers.
The building is to be 30x100 feet, five
stories high, and will contain the latest and
most complete machinery. They will con-
fine themselves, for the present, to the man
ufacture of drop and buck shot, balls and
bar lead, and will have running capacity of
about fifteen thousand pounds per day.
1t is expected that the works will be COM
pleted and ready for operating early in June
Plea for a Monument to Coz. Miller.
To the Editor of the Globe:
WoRTHINGToN, March 24.-There is
scarcely an old citizen of Minnesota, but who
remembers Ex-Governor Stephen Miller
whose remains lie buried in Worthington
cemetry. His active political life in the
service of his party and the service rendered
his country on the battle fields of the rebel
lion and against the Sioux Indians, are still
fresh in the minds of the people. 1t is an
honor to Worthington to become his last
resting place, and yet no monument marks
his grave, which is so overgrown with weeds
that it is almost impossible to find it.
He made provision in his will appropriate
ing 5000 10 embellish his grave. / do not
know what has become of the money, but I
think the people of the state which he served
so well should see to it that his last resting
place does not remain in such shape that his
sons and friends when they come to Worth
ingtod cannot find it. If his friends in his
own party do not take hold and Worthing-
ton and the Grand Army of the Republic re-
fuse to act, it would seem fitting that the
GLOBE should stir them up

swine are wallowing. No sign of our
beautiful garden here; but climb some
adobe steps at one corner, open
couple of heavy doors, wander through
another passage, and presto! the scene
is changed as by magic. Here are
acres of roses in perpetual bloom, the
greenest of verdure, and old apple
trees like those at home-under whose
branches one might almost forget the
heavy miles that lie between, did not
the growing oranges, bananas, Fl IS and
ahuacates retnind one of ''stern reali-
ties" Within these green and silent
shades, one is completely isolated from
the world, and finds it hard to realize
that all around lies a city which was
hoary with age before our lusty infant,
the United States, was born. No sound
of human life or labor penetrates here
only the ringing of cathedral bells
falls softly upon the ear, and the oc-
casional whirr of meadow lark or
hoarse cawing Of crows, which are
about the only birds we have in north
ern Mexico, excepting myriads of voice
less humming- birds, who flirt their
tiny green bodies all around us, quite
unterritied by the presence of man.
Between the branches we catch
glmpses of various cathedral towers,
and ever-varying pictures of the noun
tain peaks, which present their cease
less changes of light and shade on
every hand. In one corner of the.
garden is large circular stone tank
about five feet deep, which serves the
triple purpose of bath, laundry and ir-
rigating reservoir. Pipes and bitches
conduct the never-failing supply of
water all over the extensive grounds
A fight of stone steps leads to the top
of the tank and another down into it,
for the benefit of bathers. The over
flow forms a shallow pool beside which
are kept the small wooden trays, and
heaps of amOle (the roots used for
soap) which are the only fun nishings
necessary for a Mexican laundress.
This pool is fringed with tall calla-
lilies, and the creada kneeling among
them, like Moses mother among the
bull-rushes, is not unpicturesque ad-
dition to the landscape, as she slops
away at the family linen, and scrubs
it with roots Of amole, with an utter
disregard for wear and tear. Fannie

Fish, almost more than anything else,
is improved by slow cooking; especially
is this true when the fish is boiled. If
cooked rapidly it will fall apart, and will
neither taste nor look 50 well. The great
point insisted upon by scientific cooks
of the present day is that of taking
abundant time to prepare food in, and
the fact that nothing in gained by rapid
boiling.
Unless you have hired help whom you
can trust implicitly it is a good idea to
use earthern dishes for milk in place of
tin; they are kept clean with much less
trouble. The scientists of the present
day and hour claim that the germs of
disease hide in the crevices of u milk pan

The Home CT the Goldfish.

What marvellous influence upon civil
cation and human progress the humble
but nutritious Goldfish has had. He has

ton. 1t seems that good mother nature,
foreseeing the needs of humanity. has made
special preparations for good supply of

which were filled with the sandy bottom
of northern seas, down to the gulf
stream, where they melted and deposited
their debris, formed the grand bank of
Newfoundland. 1t was the work, the
slow and toilsome work, of ayes Every
spring thousands of these bergs, one
third above the water and two-thrds
below, the upper part clear, sparkling
and translucent, rejecting the sunshine
and giving it back to the enraptured eye
with that prodigality and brilliancy of
coloring which only nature can afford,
the lower part mixed with the coast bot
tom of Greenland and Labrador, TO the
extent of thousands of carloads, came
floating down ma jestically through Davis
strait, and, meeting the warm air and
warm water of the gulf stream, melted
and deposited their contributions until
those immense shoals were formed, where
the cod and haddock swarm. And it is
said that these sand banks have huge de-
pressions like vast valleys, which serve
as aquaria, and that when vessel is
lucky enough to anchor over one of them,
it can fill its hold and deck with as many
as it can carry. For generations, the in
habitants of Newfoundland, and the ven
turpSOma folks who live all alamo tba
New England coast, get their daily bread
or lay up competency from this never
failing source of wealth. What vast
number of people on the globe get their
living out of, and subsist principally on,

fleet of Gloucester since her fishermen

The Dog Carts of Antwerp.

In Belgium the country people are
mostly poor; even those who think
themselves ''well OFF, are not what we
should call so. Some OF them have small
farms just outside the city walls, and

seldom can afford horse, so they keep a
number of large, strong Representatives.

FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
II ad Butter-Hoy TO Make It.


Keeping cows in a dark ill-ventilated
stables.
Cleaning out the stables while the cows
are being MIXED. The fumes and dust
arising from these causes will faint the
milk during the process of milking.
Allow cows when running out to have
access to the manure from horscstablcs,
they being fond of eating the straw and
hay mixed with the manure also allow
ing them to drink the teachings from the
manure or table-yard.
Feeding them on damaged fodder or
on damaged ensilage.
Want of cleanliness in dairy and
utensils.
Keeping the milk in rooms off the
kitchen or sitting room, where the fumes
of cooking and tobacco smoking will find
their way in to faint the milk.
Keeping vegetables, meat, or anything
that will faint milk in a dairy or room
where milk is kept.
Giving the COWS water from a well
into which the teachings from the stable
yard can find their way.
Milking cows when too near calving,
or milking a sick COW, and mixing the
milk with the rest.
These and many other things will faint
the milk and make bad butter that will
not keep sweet.
OF course, the contrary of Ibis will
make good, sweet butter if properly
worked. -NeW York Witness.

Cause of Earthquakes and Volcanoes

Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are
closely related to each other. like ice and
snow. Each may be the effect of diff
fcrent cause, or both may result from the
same cause, as there is evidently more
than one cause at work to produce these
effects. This statement will enable the
general reader to form tolerably clear
idea of my meaning and yet 1 am not
satisfied with 1t myself. Therefore, [
will vary it by saying that chain of
causes seem to combine, the different
effects of which aye earthquakes and
volcanic eruptions.
The most general cause of earthquakes
is the tension and pressure of the crust,
by which the oscillations and plicationS
thereof have been produced. The tension
and pressure have been caused by the
shrinking and contracting of the crust,
consequent upon its cooling. Plications
are caused by lateral or side, pressure,
in consequence of the contracting Of the
crust, whereby the strata, if of clay,
loan, etc, are thrown into waves, or
ridges, giving an appearance something
like tluted column. | will give a fa
miiar example of the forces that produce
slight earthquakes, in order that the
young may have clearer idea upon the
sub cct.
On building fire in stove, when the
pipe begins to heat it will expand. At
first there is a tension 50 slight that the
iron of the pipe is able to resist it, but as
the heat increases the strain or tension,
ovcrcomes the resistance suddenly, as q
stick breaks when the strain is too great,
and with cracked sound. This is caused
by expansions; but similar phenomena
will result from contraction when the
heat is subsiding. Thus it is with the
errth's crust. The straining, by either
contraction or expansion, causes some
place to yield with loud report, instead
of cracking" as in the case Of stove
pipe. If this event occurs near a vol
cano then an eruption ensues. Also, as
there is Il reflex action, terminating on
the surface of the ocean of internal fire,
an uphcaval of the crust results, and if
there is an ocean of water Immediately
above tidal wave must be the conse-
quence. Furthermore, should this slight
shock Of earthquake open a iissure in the
crust, from fountain of water to the
ocean of fire, then the water being sud-
denly converted into steam with not
room enough in which to expand, other
shocks will follow, attended by up
heavals, earthquake waves and volo anic
disturbances These will continue for a
shorter or longer period and be slight
or heavy, according to the amount of
water precipitated, the size of the assure
and other conditions. -P0rtladd (Or.)

Farm and Garden Notes.

Put wood ashes in your hills for pota-
toes.
If you do not let your pigs run at large
they need bone-meal.
Dissolve some alum in the whitewash
to keep it from rubbing off.
Shut up fowls without food for twelve
hours before they are Deheaded.
Do not let the sheep spoil wool with
chatf and burrs. Cut tag locks early.
Cottonseed meal fed to mich COWS in
summer increases the tirmness of butter.
Do not forget to moisten the eggs
under the sitting hens occasionally with
warm water
Let the hens run in the orchard. They
will do much toward keeping out the
canker worm.
The most unfayorable time to trans
plant tree is just as the buds are be-
ginning to burst.
The cultivation of artichokes as food
for stock is increasing every year, and
seems to be profitable.
Boil few more potatoes than you
want for breakfast and mash them up
with little cottonseed meal for the
calf
The american Farmer recommends the
cultivation of peach trees when young,
but it should cease when they begin TO
bear.
The essentials to success in onion cul-
turc are plenty of manure, thorough fit
ting of the ground, good seed and clean
cultivation.
