Why farmers Should deny themselves so many

TRADE AND COMMERCE.
More Cheerful Feeling In Commercial Cir
cles,
INDIANAPOLIS. March 70.


INDIANAPOLIS, March 10
The cheerful sun Of today, and more activity
in the general merchandise markets, tended to
cheer up wholesale men, who, thus far this year.
have been disappointed in trade. There is.
growing belief that, with Favorable weather and
good country roads, the volume of business will
be quito satisfactory, although no boom in trade
is looked for We have had SO much winter
there is reason to look for an early spring Prod
nee men report trade little slow The demand
for eggs is light. Buyers, apprehensiye of lower
prices, are buying very sparingly; while holders
are nearly all anxious TO sell, there is no in
ducement in the present condition of the mar
ket to hold. Choice butter continues to command
fair prices, but poor stock is not wanted at any
price. Thore is scarcely a commission house but
what has big stock Of the latter, and not only
is there no demand for it here, but it is Just as
bad at the seaboard Commission men are nearly
all diseouraging consignments Of this common
butter, and the sooner the country people realize
the Importance OF not only making a good arti-
Gle, but Of putting it up nicely, the better it will
be for them Country dealers must also learn
that the mixing of good aud bad
butter together viii not DO Groeers

SPORTING.
THE OAR.
The COurtney.ROss Sculling Match Re-
suited IN Grand Fizzle-COurtney
Fails to Appear.

NEW YORK, Jnne I.
The Courtney-Ross sculling match which
was to have taken place at Oak Point this
afternoon resulted in fizzle. Courtney djd
not appear at the starting point when the
referee, Hazard, ordered them to come out
and Ross rowed over the course alone.
Courtney was about the grounds at Oak
Point all the morning and up to nearly two
o o'clock this afternoon. few moments be-
fore two o'clock Johnny Cree asked Courtney
if it was not about time for him to get
shaved. Courtney replied that he thought it
was, and the two men are said to have started
for the barber shop. Courtney was not seen
after that.
At o'clock Referee Hazard told Bert
Brown, Courtuey's trainer, to find his man
and tell him to prepare for the race that
would be started at ) o'clock. Brown went
of and in an hour returned with the answer
that he could not find his principal anv
where. He had been across the road but was
unable 10 see any barber shop. Courtney
had been over the course in the morning
and afterward said that water was good. At
4 o'clock was quite smooth over half the
distance, though in places was a trifiing
choppy that the water was good enough for
the race proven by the three mile match
rowed at 436 in the afternoon between Geo.
Ualsie ana FTeu L IldlSteu, WHICH WAS easily
won by Gaisle.
Cree has several times during the past 10
days claimed that the race would not take
place. James Pilkington, one of the pro-
prietors of Oak Point, says that Cree said to
him some days ago that he (Cree) wanted
something out of the match.
Courtney it seems circulated report be-
fore leaving today that they was no money
up and he would not row unless he saw the
purse or had bonus in advance. His dis
played letter signed Jim. in which the
writer offered to give him a third of the re-
ceipts if he would go il the match.
Pilkington said in reply to this that he
offer to Courtney last spring before the arti-
cles of the present race were signed. Pix
ington showed Richard K Fox's receipt for
S2500 deposited as as purse. Pilkington was
asked if Courtney was entitled to $500 which
went to the second man. He replied that he
could not remember the full text of the arti-
cles of agreement, but if he could keep the
amount from Courtney he would do so.
Pilkington said he would give $50 if Court
ney would come back for his boat. Some
person said Courtney was afraid of a mob.
Ross rowed over the course in an admira-
BILE manner, making three miles in 90 min.
51 sec 1t was excellent time for the water
and tide Referee Hazard decided all bets
off except where ''play OF pay was stipu-
lated.

CITY OF FALL RIN Err.
Her Damage Undoubtedly SeriOus-The
Schooner IdIewild Ashore.

Providence, June Z.
Steamer City of Fall River is in very
bad position and condition. Leaving New
port, filled with freight boune for New York,
she went ashore on the south end of Rose
Island. about one-half the vessel being on
the rock. She struck after the tide had been
falling an hour. and filled rapidly with water.
Capt. Thomas Shea made the first
report. He was coming from Jamestown in
a sailboat, and found the vessel on the rocks
where she now lies. Steamer Albatr0ss was
sent TO take out part of the cargo, and the
steamer Newport will go out to take the re-
mainder. A steam tug went alongside and
remained by her; Capt. Waters also went
with the wrecking schooner Young America,
and is now pumping. The Fall Rivers pump
is also being used. Two boats have been
sent from the U. S. ship New Hampshire,
with about 60 men, to render assistance.
The damage is undoubtedly serious, and it is
at present impossible to tell the full extent.
Schooner Idlewild, Capt. J. W. Robinson.
haling from New York for Fall river, with
1850 bushels of grain and 100 bales of straw,
came ashore in dense fog at o'clock last
night, one mile west of Point Judith signal
station. The vessel is not leaking and lies
on a sandy bottom. The surf is light. The
captain has telegraphed for the revenue cut
ter Dexter.

What the London Times Says.

LONDON, JUNE Z.
In leading article discussing the results
of the Chicago convention, the Times this
morning says: "Mr. Blaine's nomination
will be received with general satisfaction.
Not only has he been the most popular can
didate from the outset. but he is, beyond all
question, the most conspicuous and respected
politician in the ranks of the republican par
tv. which has done itself honor in the nomi-
nation of so well known and distinguished a
man. If the democrats could make up their
minds to definite and reasonable free trade
policy they would certainly secure more
sympathy on this side of the Atlantic than
has hitherto been accorded them. Meantime,
we must congratulate the republic on the
choice of candidate so eminently suited as
Mr.. Blaine to represent and uphold the dig
nity of the United States.

The hearts of republicans in Gardiner
throbbed with unwonted exultation, Friday
afternoon, as the news of Blaine's nomna-
ton for the Presidency flashed along the
wires. good deal of anxiety had been felt
as to the result, after the balloting COM
menced, until the glorious news brought
welcome relief. Immediately after the
announcement of the nomination Chief
Chief Engineer g. T. Haley, who knows
how TO handle fires, either combusti-
BILE or enthusiastic, made the necessary col
lections and preparations for properly cele-
bratng the event. The discharge of one
hundred guns on the Common, and ringing
of the various bells in the city, was a fitting
expression of the jubilant feelings of the
people, for republicans and democrats alike
appeared to be rejoiced at the great honor
conferred upon Maine by the national con-
vention in selecting her great and honored
statesmen as the standard bearer of the re-
publican party during the coming campaign.
large number of Gardiner citizens went up
to Augusta on the 7.30 =. NJ. train to help

uation, and will roll up one Of her old time
