MORE encouraging crop reports are
coming in from all sections OF the coun.
try than were looked for. The Eastern
fruit growing regions, though this is an
off year for apple bearing, report the
apple crop only twenty-five per cent.
short OF the average for bearing years,
while from the Sou n the reports show
that the crop prospects severally art
remarkably good.

POLITICAL indications from Viz
ginia point to the triumphant election
Of John s. Wise for Governor, provided
the Bourbons permit anything like a
fair election. Many of the prominent
Readjusters who left Malone in the
issue of 1882, with "Parson" Massey,
now the Bour bon candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor Of Virginia, are COM
ing over to the support Of Wise and the
Republican party. Amongst those who
are returning is Senator New berry who
revelted three years ago and was soon
sorry for doing 80 Such losses will be
hard for the Bourbons to make up in
honest votes. Such evidence Of the
turning tide is very encouraging to the
Republicans. They might, with almos
absolu certainty claim the result o
the contest in advance, were 1t not fo
the lurking suspicion that the Bourbon
will inaugurste Danville massacre
rather than be beaten.

A "Madman's" Legacy.

'-Sie" exclaimed a man in the home
ly garb of a mechanic to Richelieu
Prime minister of France, as he was
entering his palace; "Sire, l have made
a discovery which shall make rich and
great the nation which shall develop
it. Sire, will you give me an audi
ence?"
Richelieu, constantly importuned,
finally ordered the "madman" impris.
oned. Even in Jail he did not desist
from declaring his "delusion," which
one day attracted the attention of a
British nobleman, who heard De
Causes story, and developed his dis
covery OF steam power!
All great discoveries are first derid-
ed.
Seven years ago man yet under
middle age, enriched by a business
which covered the continent, found
himselfsuddenly stricken down. When
his physicians said recovery was i'm
possible, he used new discovery
which, like all advances in science, had
been opposed bitterly by schoolmen
Nevertheless, it cured him, and out OF
gratitude therefor he consecrated
part of his wealth to the
spreading OF its merits before the
world. Such in brief is the history
of Warmers safe cure, which
has won, according to the testimony
of eminent persons, the most deserved
reputation ever accorded to any
known compound, and which is finally
winning on it's merits alone the ap-
prevail of the most conservative prac-
titioners. Itsfame now belts the globe.

Mr.. Bennett, and he is alone, die
tates the policy ofthe Herald; he alone
controls and manages it in every de-
tail. 1t is time that this often re-
peated and contemplate falsehood
that Mr. Bennett takes but little part
In the management of the Herald
should cease to be uttered. Mr.. Ben
nett, as everybody knows who knows
the inside of the Herald is the master
of it in every part. l have been in
his service now since the fall of 1874,
and you will perhaps admit that my
journalism, while my owledge of him
is pretty full. He is, in my judgment,
the ablest journalist in this country.
He has more of the brilliant intuitions
OF journalistic genius, amore accurate
knowledge OF public opinion, more
statesmanlike sagacity than any man l
have known in the press of this coun-
try. Ihavelong ago learned to follow
his lead, even when do not at the mo-
ment see his drift, with unquestioning
confidence in the soundness OF his
judgement. Mr.. Bennett is, further
more, an excellent business man. His
thrifty Scotch father carefully trained
him in al parts of the business of a
great journal He Isl good judge
of the mechanical details that he buys
his own white paper, selects his own
type, and understands thoroughly
the machinery of the press-room; and
his knowledge of bookkeeping makes
him master at all times of all the &C
counts of the Herald and Telegraph.
Finally, in my long service in the Her
aid l have always found Mr.. Bennett
Jealous for the best interests OF the
whole country, strongly and intelli-
gently on the side of good morals and
sound and patriotic politics, and u.s.
ing the great power in his hands con-
scientlously and unselfshly for the
public good. Heis hard and indus
trious worker, and one of the most
rapid l ever knew. He chooses to live
much abroad. which l have often re-.

have been in Mr.. Benefits employ
IL years, and say to you that every
journalistic success the Herald has
made in that time, every great policy
it has struck out, every important
blow dealt for the country and for
good government, and they have been
many, all have been inspired and
dictated by Mr.. Bennett, and very
often to the minute details. If the
Herald is powerful and successful, it
is Mr.. Bennett who has made it
SO. Nor ought it to be neces-
sary to say this, for every
businessman knows that a great
business such as that of the
Herald cannot go on prospecting

without head of consummate ability
and constant industry.

Barnum's Talk About Jumbo


P. T. Barnum was interviewed by a
Times reporter:
'Was Jumbo's life insured?" the re-
porter asked:
"No; the loss is q total one, unless
the railroad company is liable, and
Pm not sure that l would sue for
damages in any event. Poor Scott! I
don't know what he'll do without
Jumbo. He cares nothing for human
companionship. Jumbo was all the
world to him. The affection mani
tested between him and the elephant
was simply wonderful. remember
year or two ago, when our elephants
stampeded and Scott was in a posi-
ton where he was in danger of being
trampled on and killed, Jumbo saw
the peril, and, reaching out with his
trunk, snatched Scott up, drew him
between his forelegs and kept him
there in safety until the herd was
quieted. They loved each other dear
ly Scott was the elephant, and the
elephant was Scott. They slept to-
gether, ate together and drank to-
gether. Scott used to get bottle of
beer just before going to bed in his
berth in the car. He generally drank
hall himself, and gave the other half
to Jumbo. One night he drank his
half and forgot to serve his friend be-
fore going to bed. Jumbo waited for
what he thought a reasonable time,
and then quietly reached over to the
berth, lifted Scott out and sat him
tenderly on the floor. Scott remem-
bered the beer then, Jumbo got his
drink and dozed peacefully off.
"What is to be done with Jumbo's
remaines?"
81 telegraphed at first to give the
skeleton to Prof. Baird of Me Smith
sonian institution, and the skin to my
museum at Tufts college. That will
be the ultimate disposition of them,
but my wife suggests that l have Jum-
DO mounted and continue to exhibit
him in the show for the present That
is what shall do If can't have Jum-
DO living, I'll have Jumbo dead, and
Jumbo dead is worth small herd of
ordinary elephants"

snake and toad story: At West Union,
Mo-, the other day, after heavy
blast had been fired in vein of hard
blue limestone, the workmen found q
live toad and a petrified snake in
little hole in the solid stone. The
snake, which was eighteen inches long,
was sticking to one of the toad's hind

the toad by the leg and SWALLOWED it,
