Fate of Two Bosom Friends.

Twenty-six years ago, says an Illinois
paper Gen. John A. Logrn and Col. William
II, Morrison were both wounded on the same
battlefield. carried by their comrades into the
same house, and laid upon beds to die.
Singularly enough, they have now been
carried into the same house and once more
laid on beds to die. And it is believed they
will die this time in dead earnest.

A tourist writing from Florida to the
New York Journal Of Commerce thus
speaks of Savannah: 1.-The spring is very
slow in coming, and fully two, perhaps
three weeks behiDdhand. We found it
very much the same at Savannah, where
we drove around the country and walked
through woods and old fields, seeking
flowers. There were a few viOlets, and
soma OF the white blossoms oil the hous-
tonia (eye-bright), and also another
variety Of the same early spring bloom,
smaller than our northern variety and in
teuselv deep in its violet blue color. Sa-
yauuah is such beautiful city that it is
a marvel il does not attract thousands Of
winter residents from the North. Broad
streets shaded with 'arge tire make it
sumaer-losking lace. Til drives around
il are varied ard pleasant. The banks Of
the river are busy and attractive to one
who wants to sec the wealth Of the South
pouring into the shipping of all the world"
The Americans have often been denom-
mated the most wasteful people in the
world. The preachers are now beginning
70 bestOw some attention on the subject.
Rev. DR.. Smyth, of New Haven, in re-
cent sermon, said: America wastes
enough yearly to feed the thousands who
are row said to be out of employment.
Tee time may yet come when it shall be
considered practical somewhere in the
course of the education which a State
gives to the people to teach girls how to
extract the greatest amount Of nutriment
from the common materials OF food, and
careful statistician justly remarks that
whoever can teach the masses Of the peo-
ple how to get cents worth day more
comfort or force out OF the food which one
consumes will add to their productive
mower what would be equal to Sl,OOO,OOO,-
600 a year in value.'" 1t is probable
fhat the day is not far distant when will
mi waste will be denounced as one Of the
most heinous Offenses against the moral
law. No one has a right to throw away
tbat which would give nOurishment and
comfort TO the deserving poor.

A curious story comes from Brooklyn
TO the effect that man gave ferry ticket
agent s. gold piece, thinking 1t was
cent piece. Several days after he discOv
cred the error and asked the agent about
it. The latter, in giving the money back
TO him, said that the day after he took it
in he had given it out in change to a man
who next day brought it back, threw it on
the counter and departed without waiting
for any change. 1t is stated that the coin
had a peculiar mark on the rim, hence the
incident cannot be taken as an evidence
Of Brooklyn honesty. The parties who
returned it evidently thought that it was
"a decoy which had been sent on some
special mission by faT-seeing detective.
Ex. Gov. Click. of Kansas, fears that
the prosperity Of the newspapers of his
State has been jeOpardized by the triumph
Of the Democratic party. He says that
nearly every Republican editor in the
state has been favored with POSTMASTER
ship, and that the papers, post offices and
Republican committees were all run as
combination machines to keep the Repub-
lican party and the Republican leaders Of
the ingalls,, Plumb, ETC., stripe in power,
while the latter in their turn kept the edi-
tors in the post Offices. 1t is probable
that several Republican newspapers in
that State will be forced to suspend when
Mr.. Villas gets done turning the rascals"
out. The power of the press is very great
when it is supplemented by the power of
a post Office.

NEW YORK, June ia large number of
hours passed in the Jefferson Market police
court while Secretary and Treasurer Nc
Williams, of the Manhattan Railway COM
pany, was asked, time and time again, how
he knew that Charles d, Keep was editor Of
The Wall Street Daily News, and responsible
for the article which the company declares is
false aud is an attack on its credit. The drift
of Mr., McWilliams' replies was that Mr..
Keeps name was at the head of the paper,
and that the article spoke for itself. Vice
president Galloway had called his attention
to the article, and others had spoken to him
about it and said things about Mr.. Keep
but they were private conversations, and he
would not repeat them. Mir. McWiliams
was finally questioned about the lease of
the New York and the Metropolitan roads
to the Manhattan company. He could not
say if the Manhattan company owned any
property when the first lease was made in
1879 He was not with the company at that

tions and pledging his energies and intiu-
ence to securing for the coored people Of

of American citizenship. After the speeches
were concluded, the crowd was invited into
the house and Gen. Logan stood for more
than an hour shaking hands.

A Boys Strange Disappearance.

CHICAGO, June 13-R. j. Waters an
attorney, noticed last Monday that the
name of his son Arthur was not in the list
of the graduates from the preparatory de-
partment of the Chicago university, al
though he had every reason to believe
him to be in excellent standing in his class
Inquiring at the university, MIR. Waters
learned that his son, who had recited his
lessons at home every day, had not been at
school since April l, which was all the more
strange, as the boy had seemed to be more
eager than ever TO get on with
his studies. That afternoon, while
his parents were away from home,
Arthur packed mis- small effects in
two valises and left for parts unknown.
His father thinks he had about So in his
possession when leaving. No clew to the
whereabouts Of the lad, who is about II
years old has thus far been discovered
What makes the disappearance very mys-
terious is the fact that the boy was of very
dispassionats and unromantic nature and
not al all given to novel reading
