The Talk OF the Day.

The shipment of buffalo bones from
the plains of the West to Eastern phos-
phate factories has largely increased
recently, because of the reduction in
the trunk line freight rates. Thou.
sands of buffalo skeletons are gathered
up by the bone men on the prairies,
especially in the valley of the Arkan-
sas, every season. One Philadelphia
manufactures alone received ia the
course of the last two months over zoo
carloads. Delivered at the. factory
the bones are worth IS ton.
A London clergy man has taken advantage
of the organ grinders and organized band
OF paid musicians v no wi tn Organs play or

purposes. Judging from the success OF the

Hattie Smell. a thirteen ear-old girl
living at St townsville, n. Y, Ia the
originator OF an interesting scheme to
build a church The Episcopal society
were attempting TO raise money to
build new church and Hattie took \
great interest In the project. She con-
cetved the plan Of obtaining aid from
the ftatesmen at Washington, and she
wrote letters to nearly everybody
whose name appears in the congress-
ional directory asking each TO contrib
ute a few bricks. Her plan was SO
novel and her letters were written in
such childish iDgenuousness that the
responses were large. Among the
contributors were President Arthur,
all the members Of the cabinet, Gen.
Sheridan, Vice President Edmunds,
Speaker Carlisle, many Of the sena-
tors and large number Of congress
men. Now she prop .ses 10 sell the
autographs which accompanied The
contributions, and will be able there
by 70 more than duplicate the sum she
received.

the Eastern and Northern States fol

A READY MARKET.
Breeders of blooded stock i'm tn,

at New Orleans proposes to supply. 4

lowing interesting statement /:
"Tbe steamship Austrian, which al

Mtnott E. Osborn.

Minott E. Osborn died yesterday afternoon at five minutes of o'clock. His death casts gloom over a large circle of friends and throughout the city on all sides regret is
 expressed. The many fine qualities of head
 and heart of the deceased and his removal
 from earth's scenes while yet a young man
 comparatively cause a wide feeling of sor-
 row. Deceased was unconscious during the
 last three days of his life. All that loving
 hands and hearts and the best medical skill
 could do were unavailing. A sketch of the
 life of deceased was given yesterday. The
 Register says of him: ''Mr. Osborn enjoyed
 large circle of acquaintances, being rich in
 those genial traits of character that attract
 and cement friendship. He was generous
 almost to fault, extremely susceptible to
 the attentions of friends and sensitive to an extreme. His nature was a delicate ly refined one nd!instinctively shrank from those traits that found a lodging place in na- lures of a coarser mold. He was thorough business man, and brought to bear upon his business life those principles that he accepted as his guide in private life. In disposition he was naturally light-hearted but his fail ing health during the last three or four years had depressing effect upon his mind, at times completely unnerving and prostrating him. He leaves behind him scores who will recall as time rolls on the pleasure they took in his compionanship and the confidence they felt in his friendship. His wife and three children will find comfort and consola- tion in the knowledge that the hearts of those to-day go out to those in the affiiction they have been called upon to bear"
 Messrs. Bolton & Neely pay a feeling trib- ute of personal regard and esteem to the deceased and were deeply affected at his ill., ness and death. The firm had become warmly attached to him. The memory of the deceased will long be cherished
