Jehn O'Ncil, a cattle-raiser OF lifelong
experience in Victoria county, Texas.
called on the StOcio- Gro,eer this week. and
conversation with him proved most in.
terestins. Mr.. O'Neil is one OF the very
few breeders in this country OF Brahma, or
sacred cattle OF the East Indies. il would
at first seem farcical TO speak OF raising
"mensgerie stock" but Mr.. O'Neil will
soon be able 10 prove TO stock.men Of the
West thst this strain will show a. many
good qualities as the much.talked-of Here
lords and Durbams.
The first sacred cattle brought 10 Ameri-
ca consisted Of two lots. one OF which went
TO Georgia and the other to Louisiana.
Ia 1879 Mr.. ONeil noticed COWS
near his home which were cross between
the natives and the Brshmas, and were
the property Of n neighbor. The winter
and the spring Of 1879 were exceptionally
hard on cattle, and the die
%" was something tremendous. One OBJ.
servin. friend saw in the spring that the
Brahma COWS were IN excellent condition,
and after re,iments he concluded that
The breed would be good one 10 eros.
wiib the native stock. Mr.. U'NeiI secured
bull and two cows (thoroughbreds) from
the Louisiana herd, and afterwards in
creased the number from Georgia. The
result OF the cross was satisfactory. They
are OF good size. fine beef qualities. and
possess the best rustling qualities Of any
breed.
Mr.. ONei! obtains the best results from
= cross between the sacred cattle with pure
Durhams. and the male stock from this
cross be runs with his natives. There is a
heavy demand in Texas for the Brabma,.
q. they are called, but 1t Is utterly impossi-
bic TO supply Il. Mr.. 0'Neil intends 10
stock nnch In this Territory. when our
New Mexico cattle-owners will have an
opportunity Of seeing the sacred cattle.
The thoroughbreds are described as being
81 srich cream color. and the bulls have q
very prominent hump on the shoulder.

Peacock Throne of Delhi.

The finest and most costly piece of
furniture ever conceived was the, ia
nous peacock throne of Delhi,
T~avernier, o skillful French ieweler,
saw it, and made a computation us to its
intrinsic value. He calmly estimated
that it's nominal worth, aside from its
claims in an artistic way, WITS SS30,DOO,-
600, 1t was but six feet high and four
feet broad, but it was composed of solid
g~old;inlaid with rare oriental gems. 1t
received its name from the jeweled i'm
afses' CT peacock which adored its canopy.
This canopy was also of GOLD. sup
ported on twelve gold pillars and
hung all round with a firing of
pearls. On each side of the chrome
stood two chuttahs or umbrellas SYM
iboIcal of royalty. They were made
oti crimson velvet, embroidered with
gold thread and pearls, and were
equipped with solid gold handles. and
diamonds. This throne was co%nstruct.
ed by Austin de Bordeaux, at tile order
of Emperor Shah Jehan, the. same en-.
terprising monarch who had, construct
cd che Tai, the pearl mosque of Agra
and the other most remarkable monu-
iments Of architecture in these parts.
The peacock throne was carried away
the Persian Nadir Shah, while the lew
eitd ceiling was meltedi down by the
Mahrattas at he time Of their invasion
in 1853. This ceiling was, valued az
about $3.50, GOO.

MRS. Grant the Family Financisr.

Letter from Galena: Gen. Grant
was eve a good hand to look
after money matters. He used to
say, my wife is the fnancier of the
family" and this was literally true, as
was demonstrated by the admirable
manner in which she managed affairs
when the generals salary in his fathers
leather store ut Galena was only $40 a
month. Brought up a refined lady and
accustomed to all the commoner, luxur-
les of life, she found herself, on,her ar
rival here from st. Louis, in circum-
stances that would have terrified most
women reared under similar eircum-
stances. With a devotion which char
acterizes the true wife andimother, she
set herself to work, and soon. had a
model little home, which was to herand
her family an earthly paradise. Her
management when Ulysses entered the
army, penniless being compelled even to
borrow the money with which tofhny IN
OUTFIT, was characterized by the same
shrewdness and tact, and as her husband
advanced step by step, she SO managed
his financial affairs as to fit the upward
gradations in life he was rapidly reach
ing. A few months ago, when. Gen.
Grant Last visited his Galena home, he
said in my presence: MY wife runs our
New York house, and no other woman
in the universe could do it better than
she. tgive her 81, O00a month and ask
no questions. I do not live in anything
like princely style. but there are but
few men who are compelled to keep up
the appearances that circumstances
have forced upon me of late years. that
have more to be proud of than myself,
and leave it all to my wife whor III our
household affairs herself, keeping the
strictest account Of expenses aud super
intending every department OF the sami-
establishment"

Could she have repeated my eoniden.

ceS
AT the office, preparations for She new
business were being carried on, and not
one word had been said to me of pro-
motion. To crown all, Agnes informed
me one evening THAT she was going to
shorten her visit; she had heard Of
friends going directly to Aiken and
thought it best to secure their escort. 1
passed a wretched evening, but left, de-
termined to make a desperate effort
to clear the mystery. Agnes had
told me that they were all to
be out the next day, so / begged off at
the office, reached the house at 10, and.
persuading the servant that I wanted
rest, and would let myself out when 1
was ready, 1 maaragnd to conceal myself
in a closet in the hall, where I waited
four mortal houre. Alight came through
the hall, a chair was drawn up,toN the
telephone, and asclear voice, wonder
fully like Agnes, called; 'sPleases on
meet with Grutiand & Col"
Waiting only long. enough to let him
actually begin conversation in his usual
style. | rushed out, and, catching the
culprit by the arms, bestowed q resound-
ing box upon the ear of the astonished
Mr.. Raphael. The little imp! This
was his revenge for his we'll deserved
snubs. I have no doubt he had heard
every word of my conversation with
Agnes.
OF course the Peytonsswere distressed
and a%pologetic, and Agnes was per-
suaded not to hurry away, and old Grutf
,,,Ia,,+ol ~, II ~ Tx -, E1,,0s
time, but | nevercould endure the sight
of that cherubic boy. I verify be-
lisve that the boN.I bestowed upon him
was his only punishment, and l rejoice
to think it was such a singer!
1t this story has a model it is a short
one. The more innocent and guileless
a boy looks, the lesshe is to be trusted.

Something About the Magnitude OF our
Petroleum Product.

Something About the Magnitude OF our
Petroleum Product.
There are 90, 900 producing oil wells
in Pennsylvania, yielding at present
10000 barrels of oil a day. It requires
5000 miles of pipe line and 1000 iron
tanks of an average capacity of %, 900
barrels each to transport and store the
oil and surplus stocks. There are now
nearly $4,000 barrels of oil stored in
the region in tanks. This oil would
make 8 lake more than one mile
square and 10 feet deep.
The money actually invested in
petroleum production since 1860 is es-
timated to be more than 1925, 600, 900,
of which 5000, 900, 900 was capital from
New York city. Since 1880 more than
-, 900 900 has been used in building
iron tanks, and nearly a much in nine
lines, all by one corporation. The
tanks cost on an average So, 900 each.
A 35 ,000-barrel tank is 80 feet in di-
ameter and % feet high. There is q
lateral pressure of 6 5000 pounds on each
square inch OF q tank of this size when
full Of OIL There ara 100 tons of iron
used in constructing one.
The speculative transactions IN petro-
leum represent more than $4OO ,O0O, 900.
annually. The lowest price crude
petroleum ever brought was ten cents
a barrel, in 1861 In 1859, when there
only one we'll in existence, Colonel
brakes Pioneer at Titusville the price
was 81 a barrel. Besides the 5000
miles ofpipe line in use in the oil regions,
there are in operation 1.2OO miles Of
trunk pipe line, connecting with C1eve-
land, Pittsburg, Buffalo andNe York;
and lines building to Philadelphia and
Baltimore. In the line between Clean
and New York 10000 barrels of oil
are transported daily. These lines
are all the property of the
Standard oil company, except one
between Bradford and Williamsport,
Pa. The Standard employees 100, 600:
men. The product of its refneries, re-
quires the making of %, 200 oak barrels
40 gallons each and 100, 900 tin cans
holding five gallons each, every day.
The first American petroleum ever ex-
was in 1862. Charles Lockart
Pittsburg sent nearly GOO, 900 gallons
to Europe in that year and sold it for
