was within, upon another canvas.
The movement which led to this lib
eral contribution Oh the part of Sedg-
wick county was instituted about two
weeks ago by the board of trade at
wichita, when it was determined that
the city of Wichita should contribute
car load of flour to the sufferers from
the Ohio flood. The matter was soon
taken up by the farmers of Sedgwick
county, who desired to contribute also
The result was that in short time it
was arranged that each township of
Sedgwick county, thirty-one in number
should furnish II car of corn. The Of
fieials of the AtchisOn, Topeka and
Santa Fe were consulted, and readily
consented to furnish free transpOrta-
ton to Cincinnati, and immediately
made arrangements with the Chicago
aud Alton and Ohio and Mississippi
roads by which the grain should be
.fof@arded to Cincinnati from this
point.
Upon reaching Cincinnati the corn,
in amount IL, 400 bushels, will be sold
by the board of trade of that city, and
will realize at least S7,500, if sold at
only the market price. In addition to
this amount Sedgwick county contrib
uted $500 in cash to the flood sufferers,
and the whole sum will be distributed
where needed.

he llkened unto IL grain of tobacco
seed, which. though exceedingly small.
being cast into the ground, grew, aud
spread its leaves rank and broad. so
that huge and vile worms found hab-
itatiop thereon. And it came to pass,
in the course of time, that the sous of
men looked upon it. and thought it
beautiful Ia look upon, and much to be
desired to make la-is look big and
manly. So they put forth their hand
and did chew thereof. And some it
made sick and others to vOmit most
tiithily. And it further came to pass
that those who chewed it became weak
and unmanly, and said, 'We are en-
shaved, and cannot cease from chewing

enslaved became foul, and they were
seized with violent splitting; and
they did spit even in ladies' parlors,
and i'll the house of the Lord of Hosts.
And the Saints of the Most High were
greatly plagued thereby And it came
to pass, in the course of time, that
Others snutfed it and they were taken
suddenly with fits, and they did sneeze,
with great aud mighty sneeze, inso-
much that their eyes were filled with
tears, and they did look exceedingly
silly. And yet others cunningly
wrought the leaves thereof into rolls,
and did set fire to one end thereof, and
did look very grave and calf-like and
the smoke of their torment ascended
up forever and ever.
And the cultivation thereof became
a great and mighty business in the
earth and the merchantmen waxed
rich by the commerce thereof. And
it came to pass that the Saints of the
Most High detled themselves Herewith
even the poor who could not buy shoes,
or books for their little ones, spent
their money for it. And the Lord was
greatly ,lispleased Herewith and said
Wherefore this waste aud why do
these little ones lack bread, or shoes,
and books ? Turn now your fields into
corn and wheat, and put this evil thing
far from you; and he separate, and
cleanse yourself from the defilement
of this nasty, filthy, costly habit there
of. And clean your mouths, and put
on new shirts aud new suits, and detile
not yourselves anymore aud I will
bless You and cause my face to shine
upon You
But with one accord they all exclaim

The Planets for May.

The astronomer of the Providence
journal, i'll speaking of the planets for
May, says that at present all of them
are evening stars, although Neptune
becomes morning star on the 10th and
Mercury on the 18th. None of the
planets present any particularly inter
esting features during the month ex-
cept Venus, which on the ID, at )
o'clock in the evening, reaches her
greatest eastern elongation, when she
is 45o :}3' east of the sun. Not a see
ond farther can she go. The invisible
chain that binds her to the sun has
reached its limit. The fair planet
rests from her labOrs and stands still
in her course, as if cOncious of her sur
passing loveliness, and willing that
observers on this planet should have
a chance to admire the fascinating
grace of her presence. But she remains
not long inactive. She turns her
course aud approaches the sun or ret
roglades at IL far more rapid pace than
she receded from him. Any observer
can see this for himself, for the west
ward movement or approach to the sun
is easily traced from night to night as
she threads her way among the stars
This she will do, until she reaches in
ferior conjunction in July, when pass
ing between us and the sun she reap
pears on his western side aS morning
star, and will be seen no more in the
evening sky for 292 days. Venus will
be the lOveliest star in the heavens
through the month of May, as after
elOngatiOn she turns her steps west
ward, moving rapidly toward us, and
Fastening OH to her period of greatest
brilliancy. She will form delightful
planetary study for the naked eye, and
also for eles7opic observance. Seen
through the telescope, at elongatiOn or
IA few days after, she takes Oh the
aspect of the moon mt her last quarter,
half her disc being Illuminated. Then
like the moon she becomes waning
crescent, less and less of her enlight-
ened surface being turned toward us,
but increasing i'll size as she approaches
us, more than enough to cOunterbal-
ance the lessened light. At the end of
| the month she has nearly reached her
| eliminating point, while hen high
northern declination adds to the length
| of her STAY above the horizon, and the
favorable conditions for observation.
The May moon fulls on the 9th at
minutes after ! o'clock in the even
| ing, standard time. On the I'd, the day
of her first quarter, she is i'll cOnJunc-
| ton with Mars and on the 5th with
| Uranus. She then encounters 10 plan

enon occurs. At 81 minutes after
o'clock in the morning the moon is Ill

ing one minute north. Moon and
planet are then below the horizon, and
OF course invisible. If they were above
the horizon, and were not too near the
sun to he seen, the waning moon di-
mlnished to a slender thread of silver
light, and the sparkling planet almost

Blaine's Attacks OH Edmumds.

The bitterness, not to say malignity,
with which Blaine and his friends are
attacking EdmundS can be explained
only by one of two reasons Either
they regard Edmunds as the candidate
most dangerous to the plans of the
Blaine party, or else Edmunds has in
some way offended Blaine personally.
Perhaps both reasons operate. The
attacks that have been made on Ed
mund's personal and political charac-
ter have emanated from Blaiue's friends
alone, and some of them can be traced
directly to Blaine himself. A prOmi-
nent newspaper of central New York
openly charges Edmunds with too
great fondness for alcoholic stimulant.
The editor of that paper is a worshiper
of Blaine and but recently saw him
The editor OF Il great newspaper of the
Northwest came to Washington re-
Gently. -Four years ago his paper was
not only not friendly to Blaine but
was intensely, bitterly hostile. But
Mr.. Blaine, on this editors arrival,
dances with almost subserVient atten-
ton about him, and this great news
paper makes fierce attack upon Mr..
Edmunds, going so far lis to intimate
a lack of personal honor at least on
Edmund's part with respect to certain
votes that Mr.. Edmunds has given in
the Senate. William Walter Phelps,
coming first from Blaine's house, writes
a long defense of Blaine, in which he
goes away out of his path to attack
Edmunds', and the great Blaine paper
of New York takes it up, with an eX-
preston of opinion toward Edmunds
whose bitterness is not attempted to
be concealed. These attacks may prove
boomerang. Mr.. Blaine's friends may
make Mr.. Edmunds the candidate if
they pursue this course very long. Ed
mundS' personal character is absolute
~ unassailable, and Mr.. Blaine's friends
know it. William Walter Phelps had
better have Il care. Mr. Edmunds is
not Il man to he tritled with, and while
he does not care ii rap about the presi-
Dental nomination, he does care far
more than Mr.. Blaine has ever seemed
to do about his personal honor. -
