Eccentric People.
June Atlantic

June AtdnIC
Half the people who are called &c
centric deserve to have a much worse
epithet applied to them. Here and
there a man or woman is found whose
oddities of opinion and erratic conduct
are genuine, and the outcome of some
real Unborn twist in their mental and
moral disposition. Such persons are
generally tolerable, and sometimes very
ikable, their idiosyncrasies serving as
a gentle entertainment rather than as
an annoyance to us. We feel that they
are quite unaware of their own queer
ness, which is the result of a native in
capacity to comprehend the ordinary
conventions of society. But there are
other people whose idiosyncrasies are
not, or ought not, to be endured. They
are not innocently ignorant. but wilful-
ly disregardful of reign of law in the
social world. The worlds judgments
are no doubt superficial, and therefore
very commonly defective or false; but
the worlds conventions-that is, its
rules tacitly agreed on for the preser-
walton of the order and decency of So
cial intercourse-are on the whole re-
spectacle and to be observed. But the
uncomfortable eccentric" prides him
self upon being a law to himself in
these matters. He likes to know that
his acquaintance are saying of him,
"Oh, that is Mr.. BIS way, you know.
He is not like other people; he always
does and says just what he pleases."
And the notable fact is that so many
persons are imposed on by this absurd
affectation that they will let certain be-
havior pass for independence and orig
inality which is nothing but simple
rudeness, the expression of egotism
and ill-breeding.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1884-07-12

The old Beadle dime novels are cast
into the shade compared with some OF
the real life sketches of the Indian
girls in the Lincoln institutional school,
at Wayne, Mr.. Childs' summer town on
the Pennsylvania railroad. There is a
very bright and interesting Indian girl
named Lizzie Spider, the last being her
fathers name, which she assumed, a
custom the girls nearly all follow. A
few years ago she was at the Indian
school at Carlisle, a pupil, where she
learned considerable. When she went
back, during the summer vacation, her
father sold her to young Indian brave
for number of ponies, which is the
accustomed form of marriage among
the Sioux. She had just received
enough education to revolt against the
savage life that was to be thrust upon
her, so she ran away and hid for many
months in the woods, going by stealth
occasionally to the huts of friends to
get supplies of food. During his last
visit to Yankton Capt. Pratt heard of
her, and after search found her and
brought her back with him and put her
in the Lincoln school, where she now
is. She says she don't want to be sold
for ponies and cook and work for saw
age lazyboots.

HIS WORK IS DONE.
Death of Allen Pinkerton, the Famous
Detective.

Allen Pinkerton, the famous detec-
tive, breathed his last in Chicago on the LIST.
He had been gradually sinking from the ef-
fects of malarial fever, contracted some
weeks ago while on visit south. The ply
sicians virtually abandoned hope late that
night. The deceased was unconscious
when he expired. He was born in 1919 at
Glasgow, Scotland, where his father was
sergeant Of police. He was apprenticed to
a cooper and at % years of age attained
prominence in the Charlist agitation, con-
nection with which forced him to leave
Great Britain. At Dundee, ILL.,, Pinkerton
established paying cooperage business and
was later incidentally engaged in amateur
detective work. His success at the latter
decided his future career. The story of the
establishment Of the Pinkerton detective
agency, his active assistance in the abolition
movement, the prominent part he took in
the secret service during Lincoln's admin
istration, as well as his hairbresdth escapes
and wonderful sagacity, are as familiar as
household words.

BREWsTER's OPINION.
Wherein He Declares the Fitz John Por-
ter Bill Clearly Unconstitutional.

Attorney General Brewster submitted
tothe president, in compliance with the
latyer's request, long and carefully pre-
pared opinion upon the bill for the restor
ton Of Fitz John Porter to the army, in
which he expresses the opinion that the bill
is clearly unconstitutional. He says, in
part:
The bill is imposing, or attempting to i'm
pose, upon the president duty to appoint
a person designated therein without any
support in the constitution. l. is an as
sumption Of implied power, which is not
based upon any expressed power, and clear
l, ly invades the constitutional rights OF the
president; congress has no right to enact as
law that which will be Intellectual. 1t can
not enact, advise or counsel. Unjust make
laws that are rules of action, not express
sions of will, that may or may not be fol-
lowed. If this bill be an injunction COM
manding the president to appoint, it is an
usurpation, and II it be only counsel, 1t is
without the essential element of law, and
congress can enact nothing but that which
is to have full vigor and effect of law; but
again, the bill is subject to objection upon
the ground that congress thereby, in effect,
creates an Office only upon the condition that
1t is to be asked by the particular individual
named. II this principle were adopted
generally In the creation of offices it would
obviously result in constraining the appoint
ing power to accept the conditions imposed
and fill the offices with individuals desig-
mated by congress, thus frustrating the
design of the constitution, which is that
officers must be alone selected according to
the judgment and will of the person and
body in whom the powers Of nomination,
advice and appointment are vested.

What is a StayerP



A note written in delicate female
hand has been received at this Office in
qairing what 'stayer" is. A "stayer"
is man who gets with crowd and
spends his money for liquor he does not
want; who staggers up to the bar when
he is already full to the chin, and de-
clares that his system Graves more
liquor; a man who, although nearly
dead on his feet, will assert that he is
having good time, and that he wants
to keep it up longer; man who throws
his liquor on the floor and says his
companions are not "good ones" if
they attempt it; man who vomits up
his liquor and then drinks more, in or
der that he may vomit again in short,
man who makes complete and per-
feet pig of himself. Still, we are glad
that Atchison triumphed over Leaven-
worth. If Leavenworth man should
claim to be the champion splitter in the
world, we should be glad to announce
that he had been downed by an Atchi-
son man.

CROPS IN IOWA.
What is Indicated by Reports from a Wide
Area of Territory.

John R. Shaffer, secretary of the
Iowa State Agricultural society, gives to
the public the full crop report of Iowa, as
follows: Winter wheat: Forty-two town
ships report an increase in area and seventy
four townships decrease, or an average
decrease in this crop from 1888 Of per
cent; condition, "a per cent. The local
area devoted to winter wheat is compare
lively small. Spring wheat. Three hum
dred and nine townships report an increased
area and 100 townships a decrease, an aver
age increase for the state of per cent, or
134, O56 acres. Average condition of the
crop, SO per cent, or per cent. less than
last year. Basing the estimate on these fig
ures, and with favorable circumstances I'M
til the crop is harvested, the product will
reach in round numbers 81, 900, 900 bushels.
Corn: The favorable season has given the
farmers every opportunity to prepare the
land and plant seed for a bountiful crop.
There are very few complaints from rava-
ges Of cut worm, or mice or from defective
seed, and this invariably from foreign seed.
Even these damages have been met by re-
planting. The stand and color are the most
excellent for several years. The weatheris
favorable for its growth, and with future
prospects as bright as now, Iowa will reap
the largest crop ever grown. Three hum
dred and forty-eight townships report an
increase Of area, and POT decrease. The
increased area for the state is per cent, or
$50, 900 acres. The average condition Of the
crop has never been excelled, being 112 per
cent, or 30 per cent better than last year.
Favorable surrounding until the crop is
gathered will give product of nearly 3O0,-
OOO, 200 bushels

aastronomic Fancies OF Great Men.

DIR. Fordyce, the distinguished Eng
lish surgeon, ate but one meal day.
DIR. Parr confessed his love of hot
boiled Holsters, with a profusion of
shrimp-sauce.
Pope says:
One loves the pheasant's wing, and one the
leg;
The vulgar boil, the learned roast an egg.
Sir Isaac Newton, when writing his
"Principia, lived on scanty allow
ance of bread and water, and vege-
table diet.
DR.. Paley, having been out fishing
for whole day, was asked on his re-
turn if he had met with good sport.
"Oh, yes,'' he answered, 81 have caught
no fish, but have made sermon"
Beau Brummel, speaking of a man,
and wishing to convey his maximum of
contemptuous feeling about him, said !:
his plate up twice for soup!"
Pepys, of Charles Ills reign, having
company to breakfast, mentions: had
for them barrel of oysters, dish of
meats tongues and dish OF anchovies;
with wine of all sorts, and ale.
Pope, who was an epicure, would lie
IN bed for days at Lord Bollingbroke's,
unless he were told that there were
stewed lampreys for dinner, when he
